Chapter eight hundred and forty seventh things in the bronze tripod
I didn't dare to fight with them here to avoid attracting something even more terrifying, so I quickly pulled Li Mazi out of the ear chamber.
After running far away, you can still hear the sound of the corpse behind you moving. Every creaking sound was like a death talisman.
"Li Mazi, did you wear gloves when you took the body of your body just now?"
I asked panting.
"Although you still wear gloves? Don't you just take it?"
Li Mazi said innocently, and I was so angry that I had the urge to stuff him back into my ear room.
"Don't you know that if the breath of a living person is touched by a dead person, it is possible to cheat a zombie?"
When I think of six corpses chasing us behind me, I feel so angry that I can't let it go.
"Why are there so many words? I thought it would be enough to just take it..." Li Mazi curled his lips.
I sighed. I didn't care about settlement with Li Mazi anymore. Escape is the king.
The corpses were just startled, so they were slow to move. They would be astonishingly fast in a short while. Thinking of this, I quickly pulled him and continued running. Unexpectedly, there was an iron door in the darkness in front of me. Li Mazi and I tried our best to push open a gap.
As soon as we walked in, six corpses had already chased us. I had some strength from where I actually closed the iron gate.
The corpse outside the door did not leave, but kept scratching the iron door with its sharp nails, making a sound that made people's hair stand up.
Fortunately, the iron gate is very hard, and I don’t think they can rush in, so I simply ignore them and instead observe the things inside the iron gate.
"Brother Zhang, what are the corpses outside the door? Why do they still move?"
Li Mazi asked panting.
"The ghouls outside the door, who are resurrected with the aura of living people and will attack all living people around them." I explained.
Corpse ghosts are transformed by those who died unjustly. They must have experienced various tortures and tortures before they die before they will feel resentment. Then the Taoist with incorrect minds seals resentment into their bodies. Once a living person touches them, they will suddenly hurt people.
The corpse ghost technique can harm the heavens, and it was listed as a forbidden technique a long time ago.
Just in case, I took out the evil talisman from my pocket and set up a spirit trapping array at the door.
Then I checked Li Mazi's wound again. The exercise intensity was too high when I ran just now, and the wound on Li Mazi's leg had been torn.
I helped him change the medicine and reband it. After doing this, I sat on the ground exhausted.
Before we knew it, we had been in the ancient tomb for nearly three hours. The little biscuit paste we ate had been digested. I took out the jerky and compressed biscuits from my backpack and started gnawing.
I usually feel that these things are difficult to swallow, but when I’m so hungry, I feel that this thing is the most beautiful food in the world!
After a few simple bites, Li Mazi and I started back on the road. Since there was a group of corpse ghosts behind us, we couldn't go back the same way and could only continue to move forward, hoping that there would be an exit ahead, otherwise we could only risk fighting with the corpse ghosts.
A large area behind the iron gate was empty, and it looked like it was the square hall of the ancient tomb.
Logically speaking, behind the square hall is the main tomb room.
"Brother, what's that thing?"
Li Mazi's eyes were sharp and he had made a new discovery after walking a short distance. I followed the direction he pointed and found that it was a particularly large bronze tripod, about two meters high, looking like a large rural water tank.
Why is such a large tripod placed in the square hall for no reason?
The tomb owner is really constantly refreshing my worldview.
The bronze tripod was covered with a lid. I was curious about what would be inside, but when I thought of the group of corpses outside, I decided to do less than more. If I repeatedly brought out some terrible things, I would really be in trouble.
Seeing that I was hesitant, Li Mazi naturally understood what I thought and said weakly: "Brother Zhang, let's continue moving forward!"
Li Mazi, who has always regarded money as more important than life, actually learned his lesson. It seems that the corpse ghost just now did scare him.
However, this ancient tomb full of strangeness seemed to know our fear. Just as we turned our heads and prepared to leave, a thudding sound suddenly came from the bronze tripod.
When I heard the sound, my scalp couldn't help but feel numb. Li Mazi was even worse than me.
"Brother Zhang, have you heard any sound?" He hid behind me and asked tremblingly.
Just as I was about to speak, another sound came from the bronze tripod.
"Dongdongdongdongdongdong!"
The sound seemed even more abrupt in the quiet environment. Li Mazi hugged me tightly and said almost cryingly: "Brother Zhang, the voice came from the cauldron..."
Li Mazi's whole body was soaked in cold sweat, and my forehead was also filled with cold sweat.
Why did the bronze cauldron, which was very quiet just now, make a sound when we saw us leaving?
Is there a ghost inside?
I signaled Li Mazi to stay where I was waiting for me, wanting to see what was the name in the cauldron by myself, but Li Mazi was obviously frightened and kept holding my clothes and not letting go.
I had no choice but to take him to the bronze tripod, and as we gradually approached, the sound became clearer and clearer.
"Dongdongdongdong..."
The sounds inside the bronze tripod were very regular, as if they wanted to tell us something. A picture could not help but appear in my mind: there was an evil spirit living in the bronze tripod, which used its voice to lead people under the tripod, and then cruelly swallowed those who were approaching.
However, if the evil spirit inside really thinks so, I will just break it up!
As I listened deeply, I felt that the sound in the bronze tripod really seemed to be talking.
"Dongdong...dong..."
"Dongdong...dong..."
The sound is two long and one short, very regular, a bit like the sound of sending telegrams in modern times, and is somewhat similar to the Morse Code.
I had a sudden inspiration and kept recalling the Moss code in my mind. I vaguely felt the sound of the bronze tripod as if saying: "There are ghosts here, help me."
He said there was a ghost in the tomb, and he proved indirectly that he was a human being. Could it be that he was killed in the tomb? He didn't know that he was dead at this moment?
I couldn't help but feel curiosity in my heart, just wanted to see what was in the bronze tripod.
I asked Li Mazi to come and help. Although he was not very willing, he had to surrender due to my tyranny.
As the bronze tripod was slowly pushed away, I suddenly found that there was a skeleton inside, and there was a Taoist robe on it!
Although I don’t know why this Taoist priest died here, since I always have to help me when I meet him, I am always my senior.
Since the ancient tripod is more than two meters high, I thought it was not easy to see all the scenes, so I let Li Mazi squat on the ground and step on his shoulder to see. But I was shocked to find that the one lying below was the old Taoist who used illusion techniques on us in the ghost market!
It is absolutely impossible to be wrong, it is still holding the obsidian-like fish scales in its hand.
This old Taoist came here 80% not for doing something good. I sighed and said intimately: Unfortunately, I used the spirit talisman to cremate the old Taoist, and the dust returned to the dust and the soil. I hope he can be reborn as soon as possible.
Since I pulled out the old Taoist body, the bronze tripod never made a thudding sound, and I was relieved.
After walking forward for a while, I finally arrived at the main tomb room, and another stone door appeared in front of the tomb room.
You should know that among the Han Dynasty tomb specifications, the three stone gates are the burial specifications for descendants of the royal family!
The stone gate in front of me is much smaller than the first two, with dragons and phoenixes carved on it.
It is not difficult to see that the craftsmen are of high standards, and they portray the hidden dragon and the phoenix vividly, as if they will fly out of the stone gate in the next second.
Below the stone gate is the thunder cloud pattern, a unique symbol of the Han Dynasty.
"Damn this is a stone gate. If it were a jade gate, I would definitely move it back and sell it." Li Mazi said gritting his teeth at the exquisite relief on the stone gate.
I ignored him directly.
There is an eye-sized void on this stone door, which looks like a place to insert the key.
Generally, there will be many protective measures on the last stone gate of a tomb, which may contain poisonous arrows or toxic smoke.
If brute force is used to destroy it, it will not only block the stone door forever, but will not allow the tomb chamber to see the light of day again, but will also kill all those who open the tomb door.
This made Li Mazi and I feel a problem. Where can we find the key to open the stone door?
Looking at the main tomb close to me but there was no way to open it, a sense of frustration arose in my heart.
I took out the map and looked carefully. I vaguely found that the Pisces Jade Pendant was marked with the location next to the ancient tomb on the map!
