Seeing the rats gradually approaching, Ouyang Yi whispered: "I'm afraid it won't take long for these rats to adapt to the strong light. We have to find a way to get out of here quickly."
Weizi shouted: "Now that the way out is blocked, how can we get out! Damn, if I had known, I would have brought a flamethrower down and burned these rats clean!" As he said this, suddenly
Thinking of something, he patted his head and turned to everyone: "Hey! What do you think of throwing a grenade over there?"
"Throw thunder!?" Ouyang Yi was slightly startled and said thoughtfully, "That's a good idea."
When Wen Qingshan heard this, he waved his hands and said: "Absolutely not! The grenade is very powerful. If this passage is blown up, we still won't be able to get out!"
"Grenade won't work, but we can try throwing tear gas!" Ouyang Yi said, turning to look at Chen Biao.
Chen Biao and Wei Zi had a lot of mines hung on their bulletproof vests, and there were several different types. I couldn’t tell what kind of mines they were, but from what Ouyang Yi said, I’m sure there was one of them.
It's a tear gas.
Chen Biao nodded slightly to Ouyang Yi and said coldly: "Everyone had better put down your protective mask!" After saying that, he raised his hand to fiddle with the helmet a few times, and soon put down a glass mask.
Cover your entire face tightly.
It turns out that this helmet also has this function. I quickly followed suit and fiddled with the helmet on my head. However, before I could put down the glass mask, Chen Biao had already unhooked a tear gas canister from his vest, opened the bracelet and threw it away.
Towards the rats.
The tear gas bomb was instantly submerged in the swarm of rats. The rats were not affected at all. However, after two or three seconds, there was only a muffled "puff" sound, and a man emerged from the rat swarm.
Thick blue and white smoke.
The thick smoke spread rapidly, but in the blink of an eye, the entire passage was filled with thick smoke. Others had already put down their masks and were not affected at all, but I still couldn't put down the damn glass shield.
Although his mouth and nose were covered with an oxygen mask, his eyes were not protected at all, so he was in serious trouble.
The tear gas was not very powerful. My eyes immediately felt as if someone had sprinkled a handful of chili powder on them. It stung extremely and made me burst into tears.
I quickly closed my eyes and covered them with my hands, but even so, I still felt excruciating pain.
At this time, I don't know who noticed my embarrassment, and immediately reached out to help me put down the glass mask on the helmet. Then, I heard a series of squeaking sounds.
Needless to say, the rats must have been affected by the tear gas. The question now is, what will happen next for this group of rats? Will they be forced back by the tear gas, or will they rush forward due to stimulation?
I really wanted to open my eyes to see what was going on, but it was so painful that I couldn't open them at all.
Fortunately, the rats did not pounce. At least I did not feel my body being bitten by the rats, nor did I hear the screams of other people. Moreover, the squeaks made by the rats gradually faded away.
It seems that tear gas is quite effective in dealing with rats, but it hurts my eyes. I even doubt whether my eyes will go blind because of it.
After a while, the pain in my eyes finally eased a little. I resisted the pain and opened my eyes, but my eyes were still blurry. I could only vaguely see their figures, and nothing else.
clear.
"Brother Shi Yu, are you okay!?" Long Yi's voice came to his ears.
I was so angry that I shouted loudly: "Holy crap! Is this okay? I'm almost blind!"
"Brother Shi Yu, don't worry. Although this tear gas stings your eyes, it will not cause substantial damage to your eyes! Just raise your head and I will spray something for you. You will be fine soon." Long Yi finished.
, reached out and helped me open the glass mask on the helmet.
"You...what are you going to spray on me?" Hearing him say that he was going to spray something on me, I couldn't help but feel a little nervous. My eyes were already like this. If he sprayed something irritating on me again, then
I'm afraid my eyes are really blind.
Long Yi smiled and said: "Haha, don't worry, it is a protein solution that is completely harmless to the body. It can neutralize tear gas and relieve your symptoms."
After hearing what he said, I raised my head and slowly opened my eyes.
Long Yi sprayed some cold liquid into my eyes, and it was really effective. As soon as these so-called protein solutions were sprayed on my eyes, the pain was relieved a lot. After a while, I was finally able to see.
The situation in front of me is clear.
I looked around and saw that the rats had disappeared, and there were still more than a dozen corpses of rats lying on the ground, with some blood stains. I don’t know if they were shot to death by Weizi before, or if the rats fled in a hurry.
There was a stampede.
In any case, we were safe for the time being. However, everyone still looked very nervous. Wei Zi and Chen Biao each held a tear gas grenade in their hands, as if they were afraid that the rats would try again.
After waiting for a while, the rats did not appear again, but the squeaking sounds could still be heard from time to time. It seemed that the rats had not left too far and were still nearby. It is estimated that as long as the smell of the gas dissipated, they would
They will gather again.
Chen Biao said: "The smell of tear gas will become weaker and weaker, and it will dissipate in less than half an hour. We'd better leave here as soon as possible!"
Wen Qingshan turned his head and glanced at the stone door behind him, and said, "I'm going to try and see if I can open that stone door." He turned around and walked towards the stone door, and took out the two stone beads he just found from the stone bricks from his pocket.
, he walked to the stone door and carefully placed two stone beads into the eye sockets of the animal head on the stone door.
It's really miraculous. After the animal head was put into the eyeball, it immediately seemed to come alive and appeared lifelike.
Ouyang Yi couldn't help but sigh: "It's really the finishing touch!"
As soon as he finished speaking, a "creak" sound suddenly came from the direction of the stone door, which sounded like the sound of a mechanism starting up.
However, no one knew what the activation of this mechanism meant. Wen Qingshan hurriedly took a few steps back and quickly pulled out the Broken Dragon Slash and held it across his chest. Others did not dare to be careless and looked around vigilantly.
He was holding on, for fear that something like a meteor dart would be shot out again.
After a while, no hidden weapons were fired, and the stone door slowly opened as Wen Qingshan expected. I never expected that those two stone beads were really the "keys" to the door.
Everyone quickly walked to the stone door and peeked inside. Inside was a square tomb. The tomb was not small, about seventy or eighty square meters. It was rectangular, about fifteen or six meters long and five meters wide.
, six meters, and the stone door we are currently in is located in the center of one of the long sides of the tomb.
There is nothing placed in the tomb, but there are seven sculptures erected. These sculptures are black and shiny, and the surface is very smooth, which can actually reflect the light from the hat lamp above our heads. The shapes of the sculptures are all exaggerated, and their faces are ferocious.
It looks like demons and monsters with teeth and claws.
Wen Qingshan stepped into the tomb first, and we followed closely behind.
He walked to the nearest sculpture, raised his hand and tapped it a few times, and said, "These should be black porcelain!"
"Then what do these sculptures represent?" Weizi asked curiously.
Wen Qingshan replied: "The shapes of these sculptures are very exaggerated. If I guessed correctly, they should be the legendary Seven Evils - demons, demons, demons, demons and demons."
"Seven Evils?" Ouyang Yi was slightly startled. He pondered for a moment and said thoughtfully: "The Seven Evils are also known as the Seven Kills or the Seven Ghosts. They are often avoided by ordinary people, but they are respected by some evil spirits.
, there are even evil people who specifically use the Seven Evils to control the Yin Mansion, but this tomb was built under the emperor's order, so how could such evil things appear!"
Long Yi said disapprovingly: "So what if it was built under the emperor's order? Doesn't it mean that this tomb was designed by a Taoist master? Maybe this Taoist master actually practiced evil sects and ghost ways!"
"Mr. Wen, what do you think?" Ouyang Yi turned to Wen Qingshan and asked.
Wen Qingshan smiled and said: "Haha, Dr. Ouyang is laughing at me. Wen is really a layman in this area and dare not draw any conclusions."
I stared at the sculptures for a while, feeling that something was not quite right, but I couldn't tell what it was.
Because the purpose of our coming here was for the evil stone that sealed the soul of the evil spirit, I didn't think much about it, and Ouyang Yi didn't delve into why the Seven Evils sculpture appeared here, so the group continued to move forward.
It is said that according to the map drawn through previous geological exploration, the entire mausoleum should be in the shape of Bagua, divided into three layers inside and outside. There are eight tombs in the outermost layer. Each tomb represents one of the Bagua.
There are four tomb chambers on the first floor, each generation
It represents the four directions of southeast, northwest and northwest, meaning the four images. There are two tomb chambers on the innermost floor, which represent the yin and yang. In Ouyang Yi’s words, the whole tomb just interprets "Yi has Tai Chi, which is the birth of two rites, two rites".
The yin and yang principle of "Yi Yi generates four images, and the four images generate Bagua".
Out of curiosity, I wanted to find out which hexagram of the Eight Diagrams the tomb chamber we were in represented, so I walked forward and looked around, and suddenly discovered that on the ceiling of the tomb chamber, there was indeed a symbol representing
The pattern of the Bagua hexagrams.
Perhaps because of the age, the pattern was not very clear. I stared at it for a long time and finally saw it. It was the pattern of the Xun Gua.
Everyone else also discovered this pattern. Long Yi seemed a little excited and said: "It seems that we guessed right. The eight tombs on the outer layer of this mausoleum represent the eight hexagrams of Bagua!"
