Chapter 568 The Gate of Sound

Xiao Zhang said: "It's the machine door we just walked down the stairs. It wasn't originally closed. When I went back just now, I found that it was opened by something!"

Opening the stair door first means that the poisonous mist may spread underground.

Secondly, those long-haired monsters may also chase down the stairs and pose a threat to everyone.

Everyone's expressions were a little solemn, but Liu Ruyan looked at Zhou Sheng with a hint of meaning.

She knew that when Zhou Sheng was walking at the end just now, he had quietly tampered with the door to make it easier for Liuli to come in.

But after Liuli opened the door and came in, he should have closed it again, so that it wouldn't be left open and someone who came back would find it?

"What else is abnormal?" Liu Ruyan asked.

Xiao Zhang replied: "Originally, when I saw the opened door, I was very nervous, worried that some monster would break in. But when I climbed up the stairs, I found that all the monsters in the tomb were gone!"

"And the lid of the coffin has been refastened, as if it had never been opened."

Xiao Zhang pinched his palms hard at that time, fearing that he was dreaming.

All the thrills that everyone encountered before were like illusions. Now that the illusion has passed, everything has returned to peace.

In the tomb, only the pits on the ground and traces of corrosion on the coffin were left.

"Could it be that those long-haired monsters crawled back into the coffin and closed the lid on their own?" Xiao Wang couldn't help but think of that scene and felt it was very strange.

"I don't know. I didn't dare to open the coffin board to see if there were any monsters lying inside." Xiao Zhang said.

Except for Xiao Zhang, everyone else present also did not want to go back to the tomb chamber just now and lift up the coffin board to find out.

After all, there are neither treasures nor secrets there, only danger and horror.

Although the situation described by Xiao Zhang confused everyone, everyone still decided to move on.

They used acid to corrode a small hole under the door that could allow people to pass through.

I don’t know if the acid has any special effect on the material used in the door, but the door seemed to melt at the touch of a finger and opened a hole very smoothly.

People once again lined up in a single file, led by Liu Ruyan, followed by Zhou Shengsheng, and then filed in through the small opening one after another.

After Liu Ruyan was the first to go in, she told everyone to wait a moment. She took two steps left and right, and after seeing that no mechanism was triggered, she let the others in together.

Behind the door, it looks like a rough room, square and square, but very simple.

It's just that the area of ​​this rough house is not small, a rough estimate is about 100 square meters.

The rough room was very empty, with bare walls and floors, and no furnishings.

The only thing that's a little weird are the patterns painted with red paint on the four walls.

The pattern on this pattern looked a bit familiar. Zhou Sheng thought for a moment and thought of the first mural he saw before, which had such a pattern painted on the forehead of the worshiper!

The pattern on the wall is obviously several times larger than the pattern painted on the person's forehead.

The overall pattern is symmetrical in the center, and it suddenly looks like a "swastika", but the edges are very soft, more like two S's staggered together.

And within the general shape, there are countless tiny talismans that are densely drawn that are difficult to understand.

If you look carefully, you can see that although the overall layout of the patterns on the four walls is the same, the details carved in them are slightly different.

It's very strange, but it also reveals a sense of beauty.

On the floor, circles and crosses were drawn one after another using the same red and black paint.

The circles are arranged neatly, dividing the entire room into seven or seventy-nine parts.

In the center of each circle, there is a big cross drawn.

"I don't know what the red paint on the wall is. But the stuff on the ground is undoubtedly blood!" Liu Ruyan said.

The symbols painted on the ground were already giving people nowhere to step, but now that they heard what Liu Ruyan said, no one dared to step on the patterns.

But in such a closed room, there are neither objects nor a way forward, and everyone has no idea where to go.

Could they just stop here and go back the way they came?

Zhou Sheng judged that there should be deeper passages on the smooth walls or floors around it.

All they need to do is find the direction and find the mechanism.

However, affected by the danger ahead, others did not dare to touch the walls and floors for fear of triggering the mechanism themselves.

So Zhou Sheng asked the others to stand in the corner and moved forward little by little against the wall.

Just as Zhou Sheng groped through the entire wall and reached another corner, a bell suddenly rang!

"Dong-dong-" one after another, very rhythmic.

Just like a bell in a temple, the sound is deep and long.

The sound of the bell was not too loud, not enough to make people cover their ears, but it made their hearts seem to tremble with the vibration of the sound.

The sudden sound made Zhou Sheng stop. In such a small space, the echo made it difficult to distinguish the direction from which the bell was coming.

The other people were also looking around, seeming to be looking for the direction of the bell.

Liu Ruyan was still holding the flashlight, providing a glimmer of light in the dark room.

It's strange that such a large and empty rough-out room is not only fully enclosed, but also doesn't even have a lampstand.

It's as if it wanted to remain dark forever since it was created.

Zhou Sheng shouted: "Two more people go out and stand in the four corners of the room!"

Under the cover of the bell, Zhou Sheng had to raise his voice to ensure that his voice could be heard clearly by the person on the other end.

If Zhou Sheng's prediction is correct, a gravity sensing device may be used again underground in this room.

The presence of people standing in two corners at the same time may be the key to triggering the bell.

At the same time, Zhou Sheng inadvertently thought of the previous mural again.

In the picture, the worshipers were kneeling on the ground neatly, but in the upper and lower corners at the back, there were two people wearing black robes standing there.

Although the remaining half of the painting was destroyed, Zhou Sheng guessed that there were probably two men in black robes standing in the other two corners.

They were like the guards of this ceremony, standing solemnly in the corner, without sadness or joy.

Therefore, Zhou Sheng boldly verified his guess.

Liu Ruyan and Xiao Zhang volunteered and moved to the other two corners respectively.

Xiao Zhang imitated Zhou Sheng's posture and pressed against the wall on one side, carefully avoiding the painted areas under his feet.

But Liu Ruyan's movements were much bolder than his. She passed directly through the diagonal line of the room, neatly avoiding all the circles in the way.
