Chapter 64: Tomb of the Ghost King

The sides and top of the tomb passage are all made of blue bricks, and the ground is paved with bluestone slabs. On the walls on both sides, there are four painted murals. Due to the humidity in the air, the oil paints are well maintained and as bright as the freshly painted ones.

The four paintings depict the statues of the Four Spirit Gods, each of which is magnificent and very beautiful. Each statue holds something strange in its mouth, but it seems to have been scraped off deliberately, revealing the white paint bottom.

, I couldn’t guess what it was holding.

After walking for more than ten meters, Dazuirong shone his flashlight on the two red-painted tomb doors at the end, and said with excitement: "It is indeed the tomb of the Ghost King. The name of the Ghost King is written on the lintel."

We looked up and saw four black characters on the lintel: "Chen Yan's Tomb!"

The little hob cursed: "You damn illiterate and hooligan, you are Chen Xing, not the King of Ghosts."

When Xiao Ying and I heard this, we almost fainted out of joy, and even called each other illiterate. You mispronounced the name first. Then the dead girl said to me: "The ghost king's real name is Chen Yan, and this is indeed his tomb."

.However, this door is in the direction of Dumen, and it will definitely not be safe if you enter from here. Moreover, the tomb may be full of traps, and beware that the ghost king’s corpse will grow into a big rice dumpling, so be careful!”

I said "Oh", thinking that since Dazui Rong is here, I don't need to be afraid of the rice dumplings. What I am afraid of is the mechanism in the tomb, which is more difficult to guard against than the rice dumplings.

According to my friend's understanding of ancient tombs, many tombs are equipped with mechanisms, such as falling rocks, quicksand, concealed crossbows, flaps, reverse buckles, etc. If you are not careful, you will become a burial victim. Don't worry about quicksand.

Most of them were before the Han Dynasty. When tomb robbers dug a hole from one side, they would encounter quicksand collapse, and the quicksand was mixed with stones, which would crush the tomb robber to death.

Da Zuirong ignored Little Hob's sneer. He tilted his head at the moment and used a portable lamp to shine on the two old tomb doors. He didn't know what he was thinking. Little Hob ducked over and reached out to pull the tomb door open.

Knocker. Dazuirong was shocked and slapped his hand open.

"You don't want your life? I don't know if there is poison on the tomb door. If there is, if it touches it, you will lie here and become the ghost king." Da Zuirong cursed.

Little Hob stuck out his tongue, but said unforgivingly: "You see how hard you have worked so hard, but you can't even see the door, and you even boast that you have entered many ancient tombs."

Da Zuirong pointed to the plaque behind the black words on the door lintel and said: "There is probably a corpse poison hidden inside. Once the door is opened, even if there is no poison on the door, corpse poison will pour down from the door. We

Four of them will be zombies in no time!”

"Then we can't waste time here?" Little Hob said disdainfully.

Dazuirong lowered his head and thought for a while, then took out the gong gavel from his bag, took out a bottle of white wine, unscrewed the lid, took a sip and held it in his mouth. Then he raised his arm and threw the gavel on the plaque, "

With a sound, the plaque immediately cracked open, and a stream of green juice poured out from it, with a pungent stench. The three of us quickly covered our noses, seeing that this was the corpse poison that Da Zuirong said.

!

Da Zuirong then sprayed white wine on the purged juice, lit a lighter and threw it over. With a bang, the juice burned with the white wine. The smell became stronger for a while, but after the flame burned for a while, the juice turned from green to green.

Transparent white, Dazui Rong wiped the sweat on his head and said: "The corpse poison has been evaporated." After saying that, he sprayed white wine on the door, picked up the mallet and pushed it up, and the tomb door made a heavy "roll" sound.

There was a sound of "clicking" and slowly opened inside.

A moldy and humid smell rushed out. Fortunately, I knew that the Ghost King's Tomb had more than one exit, and the inside was not tightly sealed. Otherwise, the dusty poisonous gas in the tomb would have been enough to kill several of us.

Dazui Rong quickly threw the mallet on the ground and said to the little hob: "Look, is it poisonous?"

The three of us turned our heads and looked at the ground, and our eyes widened. The gavel was covered with a layer of black air. It seemed that there was really poison on the tomb door. It would be such a weird situation if the gavel was touched directly.

If you touch it, you'd be surprised if it doesn't turn into a corpse immediately!

Xiao Ying and I looked at each other and both felt scared. If Dazuirong hadn't followed us in, we would have pushed open the tomb door. Even if we weren't poisoned to death, we would have been covered in corpse poison, and we still wouldn't have been able to escape death.

The tomb door on the left opened at a 45-degree angle, just enough for one person to go in. Little Hob didn't dare to show off, and waited for Da Zuirong to enter before he dared to enter. After we all came in, Da Zuirong said, go to the tomb chamber.

There may be concealed crossbows on the corridor, but you can avoid them as long as you pay attention to the underground traps.

We held two flashlights, one behind the other, and walked slowly forward in the tomb corridor filled with the smell of death, as if we were walking on thin ice. After a few steps, Da Zuirong reminded us to be careful, and saw a black line as thin as a steel wire on the ground.

You can't find it if you don't pay attention. Dazui Rong said that this is a secret crossbow mechanism. Once the wire is broken, everyone will be shot into a hedgehog.

After walking more than two meters further, Dazuirong suddenly fell down. Fortunately, the little hob behind him took action in time and caught him. However, Dazuirong was too heavy, and he was carrying the falling force with him.

The force was such that the little hob could not be pulled by one person, and even he was dragging it down. Xiao Ying and I hurriedly reached out and grabbed the left and right arms of the little hob, and pulled them back with force.

Dazui Rong was lying on the ground, his face turned sallow, and it seemed that he had been frightened a lot. This was a trap, and his portable lamp fell into the pit. After he calmed down in shock, he said to us: "What I just saw

There is a bright sharp knife stuck under the pit, with a skull pierced on it!"

Little Hob panted and said, "You kid, it's time to lose weight. If they hadn't held us back, we would both have gone to accompany that man!"

Da Zuirong looked at the two of us and said, "Thank you, I still don't know your names."

I smiled slightly and said, "You're welcome, we are comrades in need. My name is Wang Lin, and her name is Xiao Ying."

Da Zuirong smiled and said, "Yes, we are comrades in need. You're welcome then."

While we were resting, we were worried about the trap. To deal with this situation, the tomb robbers used long ladders to get over. But we didn’t even have a rope. But the damn girl gave me an idea, and she took me

Jump over the flap, and then use something to hold the flap on the opposite side, so that the three of them can walk over smoothly.

After I mentioned this idea, the three of them didn't know that my brother had a female ghost on his body, so they didn't agree. Especially Xiao Ying objected strongly, knowing that my long jump score in college would not be able to jump as far as four or five meters. I laughed.

I said you guys should watch it, and walked over without saying anything. Xiao Ying angrily pulled me away, but the damn girl had already made my friend jump up, and before he could see what was going on, he landed on the opposite side of the flip board.
