clatter! clatter! clatter!
dark zone
The vigilant footsteps turned into echoes that echoed throughout the Hades.
Under the dark night where I can't see my fingers
Several searchlights were swaying from side to side at this moment.
After successfully discovering the mystery of the Hanging Soul Ladder, Chen Hao and Lao Hu cracked it at extremely fast speeds and returned to the Hades Palace immediately.
This also saves a lot of time
And when they returned to this area, the shock they felt just now dissipated.
"Hmm~~Why did this place suddenly become so smelly?" When they stepped into this area again, a strong rotten smell hit them instantly. Everyone frowned slightly, and the outspoken fat man couldn't help shouting. out.
"It seems that something has affected this place." Old Hu covered his nose with his fist and frowned as he probed.
"This is!"
sound sounded
Everyone focuses their attention on the front
Chen Hao was seen squatting in front of the coffin just now.
"I'll go, shopkeeper, I really admire you. This coffin smells so strong, but you didn't react at all? Are you so close?" Staring at Chen Hao squatting in front of the coffin with a calm face, the fat man also Full of shock!
Old Hu, who was as strong as crawling out of a pile of dead people, was so fusty that he covered his nose at the current smell, but the shopkeeper was actually not afraid. Moreover, he was the first to discover it and was also the closest to the coffin.
In the past, he always thought that rich people like Chen Hao were delicate and elegant, but now it seems that... he underestimated his own shopkeeper.
"When I was young, our old man forced me to practice distinguishing the smells of some exotic flowers and plants, so I have long been used to smelling the messy smells. This is indeed disgusting, but...it's acceptable." Chen Hao laughed. He smiled, and then shined the light of the searchlight on the coffin.
When the light focused on the coffin, everyone was stunned for an instant!
Because at this moment, the lid of the coffin was partially tilted, and the lid of the coffin was pulled out at a large angle, which also revealed the situation inside.
Could it be that it was smashed like this when it just fell?
No wonder it has such a strong smell.
This time the doubts in everyone's minds were finally lifted.
Chen Hao turned his attention to the inside of the coffin.
The thick dust and the rancid smell hit his face, causing him to frown instantly.
But fortunately, Chen Hao's tolerance was pretty good and he was not vomited by the irritating smell. Instead, he squinted his eyes and continued to check.
He discovered that the reason why the stench in the coffin was so strong was because there were not only semi-corrupted brown corpses in the coffin, but also a pool of red liquid soaking the bones. This liquid did not look like blood, nor did it look like the liquid in a tomb. What I have accumulated is like some kind of special ritual...
"Lao Hu, have you ever seen this method of soaking corpses in blood and water?" Chen Hao held the searchlight in one hand and turned to look at Lao Hu next to him with some doubts.
Hu Bayi had been observing this thing since the beginning. At this moment, after hearing Chen Hao's words, he was also stunned and shook his head with some regret.
But after this action, the big golden tooth on the side spoke.
"Shopkeeper, I seem to have read about this burial method from an ancient book from the Shang and Zhou dynasties."
"I remember that during the Shang and Zhou dynasties, it was called [Bu Tian Spring]. It mainly appeared in the tombs of prominent people in the Shang and Zhou dynasties. They would select some women who were pregnant for ten months, and then use special secret techniques to separate the mother and child. The corpse is preserved and then soaked in Tianling liquid. Once this liquid touches the human skin, it will produce an anti-aging and antiseptic substance to preserve the corpse. You see, although the bones have hatched, the belly It is still obviously raised, and you can still see clues from it. Afterwards, they carried the coffin into the mausoleum and made it use the water from the sky to attract all directions. The baby represents new life, which means "prosperity", so as to make up for the eternal peace and spring. "
Hearing these words
Everyone present also frowned.
The fat man couldn't help but export the brutality of the feudal dynasty again!
Although Chen Hao shook his head after hearing this, his mind was very clear. He understood that now was not the time to lament the cruelty of the feudal dynasty.
If this ceremony was from the Shang and Zhou dynasties, then the coffin should also be from the Shang and Zhou dynasties.
Thinking of this, he immediately conducted an investigation, and sure enough, he soon found written records from the Shang and Zhou dynasties inside the coffin.
According to previous speculations with Lao Hu, this is a half-built tomb. It seems that it was during the construction of this place that the coffin was discovered and it was learned that there was a Shang and Zhou tomb underneath, so it was abolished.
Now it seems that this speculation is correct!
Boom~~
Just when Chen Hao was thinking clearly
A drop of water is dripping from the top of the forehead
It dripped into the blood pool in the coffin in front of Chen Hao.
There was a soft sound of water waves, which turned into waves of ripples and spread out...
This originally normal scene made Chen Hao's face freeze instantly!
Water drops! ?
! !
"Get out of the way!"
In his thoughts, he shouted instantly, stretched out his hand and pulled Lao Hu and Da Jinya back.
I heard a strong wind blowing
There was a loud "bang"!
A huge black shadow fell straight from above, knocking the coffin directly to the ground. The liquid in the coffin poured out. At the same time, a huge black shadow mixed with strong wind also made everyone be trapped. Shocked!
"I'm going!? What!?"
Everyone looked shocked!
Shine the searchlight in your hand again
This sight made everyone's scalp numb!
At this moment, above the coffin, a huge ghost face glowing with green light was smiling at them!
"Mom!"
Under the darkness, I could see two rows of horrifying fangs stacked on top of each other, and the eight stacked eyes seemed to be half ghosts, shining brightly under the searchlight in the dark area.
It was pitch black all around, and the sound of sharp points piercing the ground gradually...
At this moment, everyone came back to their senses, many searchlights moved upwards, and the strange figure also emerged at this moment.
The true appearance slowly emerged from the darkness.
It turned out to be a huge black cockroach with a human face!
"I'll go! Such a big spider!?" The scene in front of him made the fat man widen his eyes in shock.
"Oh my god!" Lao Jin was so frightened that he got up from the ground and hid behind Chen Hao.
The weirdness and lethality of this giant spider falling from the sky is no joke. The scene in front of them made Lao Hu and Da Jinya even more frightened. If Chen Hao hadn't reacted quickly just now and pulled them apart, I'm afraid they would be together now. His bones are now pierced by this thing!
It was precisely because of Chen Hao's pull that the black-faced man bumped into the sarcophagus, as if he injured his two front paws. At this moment, he shook his head and roared at everyone.
When Chen Hao saw this, he immediately took out the repeating crossbow from his arms. When the claws of the black-faced creature in front of him attacked, he lowered his head to dodge, and then took three arrows and hit the monster's eyes.
Poof! !
Poison arrows penetrate
The monster roared, and its whole body fell to the ground.
The scene in front of them was resolved by Chen Hao's decisive reaction. Everyone recovered from their daze and couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
"You, the shopkeeper, are really my reborn parents. If you hadn't given Lao Jin a hand just now, I'm afraid I would have really gone down to see my father!"
Lao Jin’s nagging sound continues in my ears
Chen Hao frowned and looked forward.
The reason why his reaction is so fast is also because of his observation and reaction ability!
This place is an arid zone, and even in the underground area, there may not be any water source. This can be seen from the situation they just walked through.
In this case, if a drop of water suddenly drips from above, it may only mean that danger is approaching, not the rain in the cave!
But at that time, Chen Hao had no time to distinguish so much, so he could only drag the two people closest to the coffin to retreat together. Fortunately, he successfully avoided it!
"Shopkeeper, where are you looking?"
At this moment, Lao Hu also noticed the situation in the area above
Chen Hao heard the sound and raised his searchlight
On the edge of the cave ceiling above, there was a figure tightly entangled in spider silk, with only one foot still hanging outside, and the color of the blue pants on that foot happened to be Li Ergeng's foot.
No wonder Li Ergeng disappeared quietly just now. It turned out that in the process of escaping, this black-faced man was entangled in spider silk, sealed his head, and could not speak, so he remained silent. Left behind.
It wasn't until the searchlight swept over this moment that Chen Hao discovered that there were not many spider silks above this area. This proved that this place was not the habitat of the black-faced clam. It seemed that this monster had just knocked down the coffin during the earthquake. , causing the crown to open sideways to reveal the smell inside, and the black-faced turtle came here chasing the smell.
Now this chain of tombs is very big. Once the coffin is opened and the smell dissipates, it is unknown how many giant spiders are crawling here...
"Whoops!"
right now
The originally quiet sound came from the front again.
I saw that the black-faced turtle that was shot over by Chen Hao roared and stood up again. The three eyes that were shot out by the bow and arrow were spitting out dark green blood, but it became even more brutal because of it.
at the same time
There were more and more screams touching the stone wall from all directions, and more and more spiders began to approach.
The huge paws struggled to straighten up
The black-faced turtle roared, and flew directly towards its enemy Chen Hao at the moment of roaring wind...
