I followed him for a long time, starting in the west direction. After walking for a while, I started to go around in circles. It really looked like the aisles of the tombs I had been to before, which also confirmed something for me.
.
That's the sinkhole, maybe it's man-made.
It cannot be like this naturally.
It wasn't until the scene in front of me changed from the corridor to a place like an underground secret room that Lao Shiba stopped.
Sure enough, as Lao Shiba said, this place may be the most real tomb.
There is a coffin in front of us right now.
The coffin was blood red, and in the candlelight you could faintly see scarlet all over the ground, as if blood was dripping from the coffin to the ground, which was very scary.
The smell of blood is also clearly audible. Although it is not pungent, in such an environment, it can indeed make people feel terrible.
But except for the coffin, there's not much else here.
I looked around and found nothing.
But Lao Shiba walked directly towards the coffin, and it looked like he was about to open the coffin.
This shocked me.
Although with my current ability, even if I am a ghost and cannot turn into a bone, I will not worry about it, but a presence like King Cao still has a strong sense of oppression.
This coffin is in this sinkhole, and it is so weird. There is no guarantee that there is something terrible inside.
But when I wanted to stop it, it was already too late.
Lao Shiba's movements were crisp and neat, without even a trace of hesitation. He pushed open the coffin lid at once. At the same time, he shined the candle into the coffin. After a while, he said calmly: "What's inside?"
It’s definitely gone.”
Gone?
I was a little surprised, so I walked over and took a look. It was indeed an empty coffin. There was a layer of viscous liquid on the coffin, like blood.
No wonder I didn't feel any danger the moment the coffin was opened.
"Have you been here?" I asked.
Lao Shiba nodded and said: "I've been here before. When I came here, the things inside were still there, but I couldn't open the coffin at that time, so I'm not sure what's inside."
"Now that the coffin lid can be opened easily, it means that the contents inside..."
"who!"
Before Lao Shiba finished speaking, he suddenly looked to the side, then took out a talisman and threw it out. The talisman exploded, and a figure flashed past. Lao Ba immediately chased after him.
When I saw this, I followed him.
But I didn't have a candle, and Lao Shiba was chasing me very fast. At this time, I didn't want to expose my ability. When I found the fire fold, Lao Shiba also disappeared.
In front of me, there were only two aisles left, one on the left and one on the right.
In the darkness, I wasn't sure which aisle they were going to. Just when I was thinking about which way to go, there was a sudden sound of footsteps from the left aisle, and I followed the sound and chased them out.
But when I chased it to the end, two more aisles appeared in front of me.
While I was thinking, the sound of footsteps came again.
I chased him again.
At the end there are two more walkways.
This made me feel bad immediately.
However, before I had time to think about it, there was another sound of footsteps, and then I faintly saw another figure flashing past in the aisle on the right.
I hesitated for a moment before chasing after him.
When I reached the end of the chase, there were still two aisles in front of me.
Someone is deliberately trying to seduce me.
Thinking of this, I stopped.
I wasn't afraid, I was just a little curious as to who that figure could be, whether it was a person or something coming out of the coffin.
It doesn't matter if it's a ghost or a corpse, as long as it's not as powerful as King Cao or the City God.
But even if I wasn't afraid, I didn't want to be led by the nose. When the footsteps appeared again and the figure flashed past my eyes, I didn't catch up again. Instead, I chose another aisle and left.
past.
My move seemed to attract the attention of the thing that was tempting me. I started to hear footsteps coming from behind, but I still didn't want to pay attention to it.
Sure enough, when I walked to the end of this aisle, what appeared in front of me this time was no longer two aisles, but a place similar to a secret room. There was also a red coffin in front of me, but the difference was that
, at this time, a figure was kneeling in front of the coffin.
I walked over and took a look, it was not Lao Shiba.
It was a skeleton that looked like it had been dead for many years. The clothes on it were rotten and the bones were clearly visible.
I pushed the coffin lid open, and there was still nothing inside, just the same sticky mess.
Things inside are also missing.
If according to what Lao Shiba said, these eighteen tiankeng are eighteen tombs, then am I going from Tiankeng No. 9 to another tiankeng now?
I'm thinking.
This possibility is not impossible.
But neither Lao Shiba nor anyone else in Tiankeng Village said that these 18 Tiankeng are connected, so I am not sure about this guess yet.
But one thing I can already determine.
The figure that lured us in the corridor, if it really exists in one of these coffins, then its purpose may be to trap us in it.
That explains something.
It may not be that good at what it does.
Of course, this is just my guess, because the Bagua Mirror on my body has no reaction from the beginning to the end. Although this does not mean that there are no evil spirits here, it at least means that there will be no danger to me here.
Unless there is something wrong with this Bagua mirror.
Although it's not impossible.
At this time, the familiar footsteps appeared again, this time there were two.
I followed the sound and looked over. The figures flashing past my eyes also turned into two figures at this time. I thought about it and followed it.
Sure enough, after I walked down the aisle, there were two more aisles in front of me.
This time, I did not follow the corridor where the footsteps appeared, and chose another one.
However, an accident also occurred at this time.
What appeared in front of me this time was not another underground chamber, but three corridors, one more than before.
At this time, the sound of footsteps also changed from appearing in one aisle to appearing in two aisles. Similarly, two figures flashed across them. Their intention to seduce me was very obvious, leaving only the middle one without any movement.
But this time I hesitated.
Looking at the quiet corridor, I hesitated for a while before walking in.
This time the aisle was no longer empty.
Under the firelight of Huozhezi, I began to see some blood stains.
The blood stains were very fresh, as if someone had just walked through here.
