Chapter 1383, Narrative Mural
Lu Feng put away the surprise in his heart and did not stay any longer at the thirteen bound iron figurines. He left the stone chamber and continued deeper.
Compared to the initial entrance in the center of the cliff, their current location should be closer to the horizontal ground outside, or even possibly already below the ground.
Lu Feng knew that just this depth seemed to be far more than the entire tomb.
Further forward, there is still a side-by-side stone chamber, connected to the iron figurine chamber by a two-way door.
Different from the darkness of the iron warrior chamber, the newly opened stone chamber in front of me is obviously much brighter, with a torch-shaped lighting jade pillar standing in each corner.
Judging from the traces, it should not be a foreign object, but an ever-burning lamp installed in the stone room itself. The intrusion of Huo Qiu and his party inspired the luster again.
Through the light emitted by the jade pillars, you can see dense pictures carved on the surrounding stone walls, with beginnings and ends, like comic strips, carrying the function of narrative.
Lu Feng looked around at the narrative murals on the stone walls because he understood the dangerous environment of the tomb.
Battlefield, killing, capturing, lingering, entrapment and killing...
Men, women, old and young, even mounted young animals...
Don’t let anyone go!
Each mural depicts an extremely cruel killing scene. The scenes alone have created thousands of dead souls.
The protagonist of all this is a man wearing a ferocious ghost mask, red armor, and holding a mountain-breaking ax.
The reason why he can be identified as a man is that in one of the murals, he is naked from the upper body and holding two beautiful women in his arms.
I thought it was a scene of decay, but in the next picture, the man used the power of his arms to hold the two women to death on the chest.
It was as if it was a toy, but it was too bloody and cruel.
They simply regard human life as an ant.
Ning Xiang's curious voice came at this time: "Master, can you tell who is written on this?"
Lu Feng shook his head and looked around. The murals basically contained various scenes of the evil masked man's killings throughout his life. There was no record of his identity at all.
However, judging from the battlefield scene depicted in one of the scenes, the man in the evil ghost mask commanded a large number of subordinates, and a flag was erected behind him. It was similar to the battlefield in that dynasty era.
Presumably he was the leading figure in a certain dynasty, the main person who laid the foundation of the dynasty through killing.
Unfortunately, the flag on the mural has been blurred, and it is impossible to see clearly what words are written on it, and it is difficult to deduce the specific dynasty.
But what is certain is that this person is definitely not a good person!
The number of souls who died under his hands is probably much more than those killed by any sect in the world.
The white bones and skulls displayed in the passage before were probably done intentionally by him, in order to show off his life's 'achievements'!
Lu Feng's thoughts shifted from the narrative mural, and he was shocked to realize that the stone room in front of him seemed to have no trace of the outline of the two-way door as before.
He couldn't help but look at Ning Xiang curiously.
"But do you still remember the way down?"
Ning Xiang nodded quickly: "Starting from the southeast corner, the Pingling Sect people turned the lighting pillars in the surrounding corners in turn, and then a 'well'-like opening opened on the ground, and we hung down the rope."
When Ning Xiang was talking, Lu Feng had already leaned towards the lighting pole. After some observation, he saw traces of mechanical rotation at the connection between the handle and the stone wall.
Lu Feng followed Ning Xiang's words and reached out to the first jade pillar, but he was shocked to find that it could rotate both left and right. After he used his spiritual energy to try to rotate for a circle, there was no tendency to end and he could still continue to rotate. Go down.
This made him realize that something was wrong: "Do you know how many times they turned around?"
Seeing Ning Xiang, her eyes were blank.
Lu Feng said in a deep voice: "Lean closer to me, don't stand too far away."
From Ning Xiang's confused reaction, Lu Feng was already convinced that the Pingling Sect's followers must have seen some clues in the murals or the structure of the stone chamber, and knew the correct way to open the passage below.
Otherwise, you just know how to use the four-corner jade lamppost to open the secret door.
Lu Feng was not familiar with this and felt helpless.
The time spent with Wu Ying gave him a lot of knowledge about the tomb, and he understood the situation before him. If he could not see through the method of the tomb mechanism design and continued to turn it rashly, he would most likely trigger the hidden mechanism.
But he couldn't even find the 'question' asked by the tomb owner, let alone the solution.
"How high is it?"
Lu Feng looked at Ning Xiang solemnly, already making plans to fall with hard power.
Ning Xiang also felt that the situation was not good at this time, and replied with a bit of panic: "We used two long hemp ropes to join together... It was about 20 to 30 meters away from the ground below. "
Lu Feng secretly breathed a sigh of relief when he heard this. With his strength, he could fall smoothly from such a distance.
Thinking of this, the hand holding the lamppost slowly relaxed.
Seeing that nothing happened in the stone room, I thought to myself that maybe a casual twist had deceived me?
With doubts, he walked to another corner and turned the lamp post there.
Good luck will not always be with you~
Apparently, that's not how the second lamppost turns.
The moment Lu Feng stopped turning and raised his hand to leave, the entire stone room suddenly shook.
In panic, Ning Xiang almost instinctively obeyed Lu Feng's words and leaned closer to her.
The two of them looked at the center of the stone room, waiting for the 'well' to appear.
But after several consecutive breaths, there was no abnormality on the ground. Instead, the entire stone room began to move to the right.
Lu Feng subconsciously wanted to blast open one of the stone walls to see what was going on, but he was worried that if he acted rashly, it would lead to even more terrifying dangers, so he had no choice but to sit back and wait for death.
After half a stick of incense, the stone chamber suddenly stopped moving, and the loud rumbling noise also subsided.
But before Lu Feng could breathe a sigh of relief, his feet suddenly felt empty...
The originally flat ground shattered for no apparent reason and fell towards the dark abyss below.
Ning Xiang was even more frightened by this scene and screamed instinctively.
Fortunately, due to the close distance, Lu Feng immediately held him in his arms, resisting the poison emanating from him, and they both fell downwards.
The lighting jade bead that was originally held in Ning Xiang's hand also fell from her hand at the moment when it lost weight and fell downwards.
Feel the swaying and flickering light gradually dissipate into the darkness...
Their expressions suddenly became deathly silent.
This distance is definitely more than twenty or thirty meters!
After the stone room was moved, it seemed that they had landed in a different area.
Lu Feng was horrified and quickly used his evil-repelling spiritual eyes to spy.
Simply, it was because he was close to one of the stone walls in the sky before, and now he was falling. Not far from him, there was also a rock wall for support.
Lu Feng subconsciously pushed towards the rock wall with one hand, in order to slow down the downward trend, and at the same time try to pause briefly to see the environment clearly.
But when he was about to touch it, a feeling of uneasiness suddenly surged into his heart.
When using the evil-dispelling spiritual eyes, you can see clearly what is happening on the rock wall...
Suddenly he broke into a cold sweat.
I saw countless tiny stone beetle-like things clinging to the dark rock wall.
If you grab it rashly, it will be like throwing the piece of meat directly into the pile of worms, and you are guaranteed to be eaten clean.
Lu Feng quickly stretched out his hand, and his mastery of the Swordless Realm was revealed. A sharp sword light slashed downwards, using the impact to slow down the falling trend.
At the same time, the strange stone insect adsorbed on the rock wall also woke up completely under the sword, fluttering black butterfly wings like moths, and rushed towards the land breeze.
Fortunately, Lu Feng's sword was covered with a strong aura of Southern God's Fire, leaving a blazing barrier in the middle, cutting off countless strange flying insects in the distance.
Under seven or eight swords in a row.
Lu Feng finally landed on the ground below with Ning Xiang in his arms without any danger. The moment before landing, the terrifying air wave shook away the inexplicable pile of debris underneath, making room for his feet.
Those strange stone insects did not dare to fly down again due to his aura.
Lu Feng looked back, still feeling extremely frightened.
If this was an accident, or if it were someone else with weaker strength, he would probably die at the hands of those weird stone insects, if not being thrown to death.
This shows that the owner of the tomb had evil intentions at the beginning of the design.
I didn’t even think about leaving any room!
"Master~ are you okay?"
As soon as Ning Xiang found her footing, she jumped away from Lu Feng's arms and asked about the latter's condition with concern.
While I was asking, I felt a strong stench that was so nauseating that I felt sick to my stomach.
Lu Feng also smelled such a strange odor, but because he was paying attention to Ning Xiang and did not sense any danger approaching from the surroundings, he didn't pay attention to it for the moment.
A gentle vibration of the circulating spiritual energy easily dispersed the poisonous accumulation infecting the whole body.
Then, in order to calm Ning Xiang's nervousness and fear, and to avoid her guilt and worry, she joked: "Fortunately, the poison in our Xiao Xiang'er's body has limited power. No matter how strong it is, it won't be so easy to resist as a teacher." .”
But Ning Xiang's face suddenly turned pale, and her eyes were full of panic.
Follow his gaze and turn around to look.
Although the illuminating jade bead that fell earlier has been broken into countless small petals, it still emits a faint light.
And under this faint light, there are countless white bones piled up...
Lu Feng recalled the unconventional debris that had been scattered before landing, and quickly turned his evil-dispelling eyes again, peering into the dark surroundings...
A sudden chill ran down my back!
At this moment, the two people were surrounded by mountains of densely packed human bones.
I dare say that the bodies of the people who died in the passage of white bones and skulls above were all discarded here.
This place is actually a mass grave with headless corpses!
And those stoneworms adsorbed on the rock walls above are probably the flesh and bones of the Death Eaters that have continued to this day.
See clearly the situation.
Lu Feng's face suddenly became solemn. Along the way, what he was most worried about happened.
Although he had repeatedly restrained his worries and was wary of the dangers of the tomb, he still fell into danger after all.
