The slope is not very long, and it is not particularly smooth. It feels lumpy under the buttocks. Therefore, Jiao Yiming and I did not go down very fast.
Halfway down the stairs, we both saw the flashing red light in the secret room. This red light was very soft and not dazzling, but it gave people a gloomy and strange feeling, as if this red light was not something that any object on earth could.
The light emitted.
Fortunately, there was no movement in the secret room except for the sound of us sliding down the slope, and there didn't seem to be any signs of danger.
The distance between the slope and the bottom of the secret room is very short. Jiao Yiming and I went down to the secret room in a short time. Just as Dr. Liu described, the area of the secret room is not large, that is, about three or two square meters.
There are very few, except for the humanoid mummy that Dr. Liu calls the one-eyed weirdo. There are several bottles and jars of different shapes scattered around it. Due to the reflection of the red dark light from nowhere, the entire secret room is in our sight.
Everything is in sight.
I turned off the flashlight, and the red light in the secret room cast a layer of red on all the objects in the space, including the walls and each of our bodies. This gave us a strange feeling of heart palpitations when we looked at the people around us.
.
At this time, Minister An and the two experts also went down to the secret room and stood beside me and Jiao Yiming. Minister An eagerly scanned the situation in the secret room and walked directly towards the humanoid object lying on the ground.
Two experts followed suit.
I was afraid that there would be some sudden danger, so I quickly made a gesture to Jiao Yiming, and the two of them quickly followed.
Finally, I stood in front of the mummy of the one-eyed weirdo that Dr. Liu called extremely scary and weird. I don’t know how other people felt. At least I looked at the shriveled but extremely well-preserved corpse, and I shuddered.
My body shook unconsciously. I think I can understand Dr. Liu's state of mind when he ran away in a panic when he saw this mummy alone. This one-eyed weirdo mummy is really terrifying!
The moisture in the body of the mummy lying on the ground must have been absorbed by the dry environment for countless years. Only a thin layer of cortex is left to wrap the bones. Its body is about one meter and a half long.
It is about 60 centimeters in size, and its body is similar to that of modern humans, except that the bones of its limbs are extremely slender, and its fingers and toes are all three-toed. And its entire head is much larger than that of our modern humans, almost the size of our heads.
Double the size, the facial features on the front of its head are basically in the shape of a skull except for a big one eye. The most bizarre thing is that although its body has shriveled up and looks unrecognizable, the huge one eye still looks like it is alive.
They were motionless, staring at us uninvited guests who suddenly broke in.
The shriveled face of the mummy is indeed hideous and terrifying, but signs of life still seem to be flowing in its eyes. Its blue eyes are clear and bright, and they always seem to be flashing with a blue halo.
I don’t know why, but looking at the eyes of the one-eyed weirdo’s mummy, I feel a chill in my heart for no reason. The more I look at it, the more I feel that its eyes are so evil and weird, and it seems to have an indescribable allure.
It seemed to be attracting me and I had the urge to lean down and get closer to it. I closed my eyes suddenly and turned my head involuntarily. When I saw the facial expressions of the two experts, Jiao Yiming and Minister An,
At that time, I secretly screamed: "Not good!"
The bodies of the four people seemed to have been passed through by a strong electric current. They were stretched straight and looked extremely stiff, and their expressions seemed to have fallen into some kind of hysteria. There was no shock or fear, and they all had the same obsessed eyes.
, looking dull.
I quickly shouted: "Hi!" Then I didn't care what Minister An once said about the value of this mummy, and I wanted to kick this confusing one-eyed weird corpse away. However, when I stretched out my foot,
, suddenly everything went dark, and I felt like my foot had kicked in the air, and the entire secret room lost its red light in an instant and became pitch black.
I hurriedly raised the flashlight and was about to turn it on, but the disappearing red light suddenly filled the entire secret room like a ghost. I immediately lowered my head to look at the mummy on the ground, and saw that it was still lying quietly on the ground, with no trace of it.
Move the position a little bit.
My scalp started to get hairy. What was going on? I obviously kicked it hard on its body parts, but why didn’t I touch it? I subconsciously glanced at its huge one eye.
, I don’t know why, but I felt that the way it stared at me seemed to be more evil and weird this time, and I even felt it smile sarcastically towards me.
My heart began to beat rapidly and suddenly, and cold sweat flowed from every sweat gland in my body. At this time, Jiao Yiming suddenly seemed to have just woken up, and shouted loudly: "This one-eyed person has
It’s weird, don’t look at it anymore!”
As he said that, he immediately tore open the buttons of his shirt with both hands, took off his clothes and threw them on the head of the mummy, covering the huge one eye of the mummy.
As the head of the mummy was covered by clothes, I saw Minister An and the two experts suddenly swayed at the same time and collapsed to the ground. Their faces were pale and covered with sweat. They opened their mouths and gasped for air. Their expressions looked extremely painful.
Jiao Yiming stretched out his hand to wipe the sweat from his forehead, turned to look at me, and said with a surprised expression: "Yunlong, are you okay? Fortunately you shouted, otherwise even I would have been confused by that weird one eye.
This mummy has amazing mental control!"
I was taken aback and asked Jiao Yiming in confusion: "What do you mean... what kind of mental control power?"
Jiao Yiming explained with lingering fear: "If my guess is correct, this one-eyed monster must have had extremely strong mental control during his lifetime, or in other words, he was a person with strong mental magnetic field induction. From this, I think this person
His former identity may have been a priest or a wizard, or... some other person with supernatural powers. Its current one-eye is so intact, even perfect, that it has not lost even a little bit of moisture. It should have been before it died.
It has focused its entire life’s mental energy on its one eye.”
Seeing that I was still frowning, as if he didn't understand what he meant, Jiao Yiming added: "People have souls. After a person dies, his soul will still exist in this world for a long time before it disappears.
Depending on the willpower and mental strength of each person during life, the time for the soul to exist is also different. For example, the soul of a person with superpowers or superpowers can even exist for a very long time. Of course, a specific soul can exist in the body.
No one can confirm how long it lasts after death. The soul is tangible, just like the ghost in European legends, which is how the soul usually exists, wandering in the wind and without consciousness. But some souls are attached. I learned from this one-eyed
The mummy's eyes sensed its super mental control, or it could be said that its soul was attached to its one eye. I just don't know what its purpose was, and why it tempted us to find its body.
."
At this time, Minister An seemed to have calmed down, and he suddenly interrupted: "Whenever we modern people discover ancient ruins, there must be some specific cause and effect in it, just like the soul theory you mentioned. I also I have briefly studied the theory of the soul, and it is like a Buddhist saying: where the eyes cannot see, there must be miracles. I did see that one-eyed weirdo standing up alive in a trance just now, talking to me."
Speaking of this, Minister An smiled bitterly and said: "It's just that its voice is vague and uncertain. I can't understand its pronunciation at all, let alone what it says."
Looking at the mummy on the ground in front of me, with Jiao Yiming covering his head and one eye with his shirt, I suddenly felt a chill all over my body, as if it was a sign of a cold. I even thought absurdly that this mummy would suddenly stand up. I quickly asked Minister An: "Minister An, what should we do now? Should we go back, or..."
Minister An interrupted me with a wave of his hand and said with a firm expression: "No matter what, I will take it away. This will be a scientific discovery that shocks the world."
Just as Minister An finished speaking, the red light in the secret room suddenly disappeared silently in an instant, and the entire space was filled with endless darkness. I suddenly felt a cold breath suddenly penetrate into my bone marrow. Then a crisp cracking sound of some kind of glass or ceramicware reached our ears, and I subconsciously quickly pressed the button of the bright flashlight in my hand.
A ray of white light poured out from my hand, shining on the side of the one-eyed weirdo's body on the ground. I was surprised to find that a small black clay pot next to the mummy was broken into pieces on the ground, with several pieces of it stained on the ground. Something like a drop of water shone brightly under the flashlight.
I just thought it was the sudden darkness that made one of us accidentally kick the small clay pot in panic, but I saw such a scene in horror. Under the light of my flashlight, another scene appeared The clay pot exploded on its own, and countless small black rice-like things that seemed to be alive flashed away with the explosion of the clay pot, and seemed to fall on the body of the mummy.
Then the third and fourth clay pots burst one by one. I felt something was wrong, as if something terrible was about to appear, and even a terrifying scene appeared in my mind - the mummy was resurrected!
I quickly shouted: "Everyone, run away! It's coming back to life!"
However, when I started shouting, it was already too late. I only felt a chill in my left calf, as if it was tightly grasped by one of the hands of the mummy. The chill was mixed with severe pain. It extended upward from my left calf. I felt anxious and without thinking, I grabbed the flashlight in my hand and smashed it down towards the bottom of my left leg.
Sure enough, the flashlight seemed to hit something, and it made a "click" sound, and I suddenly felt the thing holding my calf loosen.
The moment the flashlight hit the ground and the light flickered, I saw Minister An and the others running towards the slope leading down to the secret room. I immediately turned around and ran. Behind me, there was a long and low "Ah... ." The sound was like some kind of summoning spell from hell, which made me break out in a cold sweat.
