Dream of Tomb Raiders Notes

Chapter 94

When Wu Xie and the others walked through the gap for several hours, they saw Mengli sitting there, as if waiting for them.

"Mengli... are you okay?" Seeing that Mengli's expression was wrong, Wu Xie hurried up and asked worriedly.

Mengli shook her head with a smile, and then said, "Turn off the flashlight first."

The others didn't know what she meant, so they glanced at each other, then turned off the flashlights in their hands, and the spectacular scene just now appeared around them, and everyone was dumbfounded.The spot of light in front of me meanders along the cliff, except for a few huge red fluorescent lights, those few fluorescent lights twist, move in the sea of ​​stars, and disappear into the darkness all of a sudden, this guy is absolutely no bigger than them The giant scorpionfly I saw was small.

"This, this... this is too much." Seeing so many densely packed bugs, Ye Cheng stepped back in fear.

Mengli pushed his back that was about to approach the cliff with her hands, and said: "Be careful not to touch these insects. After a gnat dies, its corpse will attract many of its kind, so be careful when you walk. Don't step on them."

"Then why don't they seem to attack us now?" Wu Xie asked.

"The creatures on the snow-capped mountains are generally concentrated near the hot springs, so there should be hot springs nearby. The temperature is still cold, and these creatures are lying here in a half-dead state. Without a particularly strong stimulus, they will not wake up .” Shunzi explained.

They connected each other with climbing ropes, stuck to the cliff on one side, stepped on the protruding stones, and walked up bit by bit.Everyone was careful, the fat man had big feet, and he stepped on those stones like he was on stilts, so his legs began to tremble within a few steps.Everyone felt nervous looking at him, because once he fell, everyone would probably fall too.

After climbing for a while, looking down, there was already a dark abyss below.While walking, suddenly the sound of water came from all around. I took a flashlight and saw that there were several springs and waterfalls flowing along the cliff on one side.

"There is a hot spring here, we can wash our faces and feel comfortable." The fat man shouted, and then he reached out to the hot spring that was only one hand away from him.

"Don't move." Mengli stopped her softly. She shone a flashlight on the rocks beside the hot spring. There were many very strange lines there, but upon closer inspection, these were not lines at all, but a scorpion as thick as an arm. The gnats lie on it, and the color of these gnats is exactly the same as that of the volcanic rocks next to them, and you can't tell them apart if you don't look carefully.

Looking around again, almost the rocks here are covered with these things, motionless.

"Bosses, let's go quickly, we'll be fine after this period." Shunzi said softly.

Everyone continued to climb up slowly along the stone steps, and carefully passed the hot spring area. Slowly, the stone-patterned gnats gradually decreased, and then they disappeared.

"By the way, old man, let me ask you something. On the train, what happened to the Kowloon coffin you mentioned? I've always been curious." The fat man asked while crawling.

Chen Pi Asi stopped to look at him, then at Monk Hua, and motioned for him to explain.Letting a person in his 90s walk for such a long time and climb such a high mountain will almost kill half of his life, so Chen Pi Asi tried not to speak to waste his energy, so he asked Monk Hua to explain for him.

"Actually, we don't know. All our information comes from that fish. Carrying corpses in Jiulong may be a lost funeral system. The original text records seem to say that the coffin of Emperor Wannu was made by Jiu Tiao He was carried by a dragon, and nine dragons were guarding his body, so no one could approach him. However, the Jurchen language is almost lost, so we don’t know if what we translated meant that.” Then Monk Hua read the original text to them After listening to it again, the pronunciation of Jurchen is too unfamiliar to Wu Xie, because the Jurchen nation is too young, and he has never learned it.

But to Mengli, Nuzhen is too familiar, probably because the Limeng clan has a special ability to perceive words... and she has also studied Jurchen.

"Then if what the fish said is true, if we want to open the coffin of Emperor Wannu, we have to learn how Nezha fought against the third prince of the Dragon King?" Ye Cheng said jokingly.

"The Kowloon Corpse Carrying Coffin, but there are nine dragons engraved on the coffin, which is the hundred-legged dragon we just saw. This Kowloon Corpse Carrying Coffin is different from ordinary coffins. It is a regular octagon, and each corner is supported by a dragon. The dragon is surrounded by another dragon to stabilize it." Meng Li said, but she coughed again, deliberately scaring them and said: "However, as for the presence of those giant gnats just now, I can't guarantee it. "

"It's easy to handle, my fat man will blow it up..." Before the fat man finished speaking, a sudden gust of wind blew from the side of the cliff, causing him to almost fall. Fortunately, Wu Xie supported him in time and put He pulled it back to the cliff, and said, "Fatty, let's see you blow it, you almost blow yourself off."

Turning around, I saw that the stairs had reached the end of the gap, and when I walked over, there seemed to be a large space outside, but it was pitch black, and I couldn't see anything clearly.

Mengli and the others moved closer to the limit of the edge and climbed up a protruding rock. Monk Hua set off a cold firework and illuminated the surroundings. Except for the cliff where they were standing, nothing in front of them could be illuminated.Then he threw the cold pyrotechnics down, and the pyrotechnics fell in a straight line, turning into small dots, barely visible when they fell to the ground.

Like a basin in front of us, Monk Hua ignited a flare with a "bang", and the flare crossed a long arc, shot straight out for more than 100 meters, and began to descend, and then a ball of dazzling white ball exploded. In an instant, the light illuminated the darkness in front of him.

They were all stunned when they saw the front, which was an extremely huge crater with a diameter of at least three kilometers.

"This... here is actually a crater!" Wu Xie exclaimed.

This crater is covered with a large number of dead trees, probably because of volcanic eruptions, or sudden volcanic activity, the trees here are sulfurized and dead.

"Look there." Suddenly someone shouted, and then two flares were shot out, flying to the top of the crater. Under the light, they saw a magnificent building complex appearing in the central underground forest of the volcanic basin. In the depths, there is a huge black stone city, but I can't see the whole picture clearly.The scale of those buildings is really beyond everyone's imagination.

"Yunding Tiangong..." Mengli looked over there, thoughtful.

"Leave the useless things, prepare the rope, and we will go into battle lightly." When they were extremely shocked and excited, Chen Pi Asi suddenly shouted.

Look at how hardworking I am (^_^)
