The Secret Chamber of the Card Game

Chapter 396 [The Identity of the Tomb Owner]

After confirming that there was no trap like the rain of arrows, Yu Hanjiang jumped up and flew up with ease, followed by Lao Mo, Gui Yuanzhang, Long Sen and Qu Wanyue.

For those without the Qinggong card, Yu Hanjiang put down the white silk and pulled his teammates up one by one.

The stone room above is twice as large as the one just now, with a spacious space of nearly 200 square meters, and the surrounding walls are covered with magnificent murals.

There is a one-meter-high stone platform in the middle of the secret room, and a sarcophagus is placed on it.

Around the sarcophagus, three circles of eternal lights were lit, and there were a lot of yellow charms.

Xiao Lou quickly walked towards the mural——

The murals on the four walls fully describe the life of the owner.

The owner of this tomb is actually not a general, but the emperor of a small country in ancient times.He was not the eldest son, but the concubine's son. He was not favored when he was a child, but was bullied.In order to get the throne, he endured humiliation and killed many brothers when he grew up.In the end, a mutiny was launched to wash the palace with blood, and the emperor brother who had just succeeded to the throne was killed, and he sat on the dragon chair by himself.

Probably because he suffered too much torture when he was a child, his psychology gradually became distorted, and he was tyrannical and heartless during his reign. Judging from the murals alone, under his tyranny, countless people were killed or injured.

In his later years, he suddenly began to believe in Buddhism, thinking that he had sinned so much that he might go to hell after death, so he ignored political affairs every day, stayed in the palace and recited scriptures, and often had nightmares.

The national teacher next to him gave him an idea, let him build this "Seven Stars Gongyue Tomb", find young men and women from the four major tribes as sacrifices, place them on the four stars of the Big Dipper Array, and then find Two pairs of boys and girls poured mercury into the body to preserve the body, and sealed the "immortal energy" in the body to help him become immortal.

The old emperor believed in the words of the national teacher, and spent ten years building this tomb.

The entire tomb has a three-story structure, and the top floor is his main tomb—high above, and the location is still very hidden.

The negative floor is a place where grave robbers can easily find. There are traps and labyrinths everywhere. Even if later grave robbers enter the tomb, they will be close to death.Even if the tomb robbers were extremely skilled and successfully walked through the six chambers of reincarnation and found the living tomb on the lower level, they would still be dizzy if they followed the path to the leaf-shaped labyrinth.

Moreover, he deliberately made a suspicious coffin, and put a lot of gold and silver treasures in it, so that the intruders would mistakenly think that they had found the main tomb, and if they went down the steps laxly, they would be shot into hedgehogs by poison ...

After seeing the murals on the wall, Xiao Lou didn't know what to say.

He is a materialist and doesn't believe in the saying of "cultivating to become a fairy".But many ancient people believed in these legends. To them, living burial was nothing more than a ritual. In their opinion, it was a good thing to "preserve the immortal energy" by infusing children under the age of ten with mercury and letting them die in agony... …

Xiao Lou turned around and returned to the sarcophagus: "Open the coffin and have a look."

Yu Hanjiang hacked at the sarcophagus with his saber.

But the coffin was very strong, and there was no response when he stabbed it down.It is not known whether the materials used are different, or the gatekeepers deliberately made the coffin indestructible.

Xiao Lou leaned closer to look at the spells around the coffin. These spells were very familiar, as if they were similar to the spells in the Chamber of Six Paths of Reincarnation, but upon closer inspection, they were not quite right...it seemed to be distorted.

Is it similar to the feeling of being distorted when looking at the yin and yang mirror?

Xiao Lou took out the yin and yang mirror from his arms.

After taking a look with the yin and yang mirror, he discovered that the patterns of spells around the coffin were indeed consistent with the spells in the secret chamber of six paths of reincarnation.

Seeing this, Gui Yuanzhang also took out the yin and yang mirror, and the two looked at each other: "Six reincarnation spells?"

Xiao Lou looked carefully at the top of the sarcophagus, and he found a petal-shaped imprint on the lid of the sarcophagus. He used the yin and yang mirror to illuminate the spells, and placed six different spells on the imprint in the order of reincarnation.

The imprint has a soft light.

Xiao Lou stretched out his hand to push the lid of the coffin. He just wanted to try it, but unexpectedly he actually pushed it away.

The teammates leaned over to look into the sarcophagus.

I saw an old man about 50 years old lying inside, wearing a dragon robe, with a peaceful face.

There was not much jewelry, gold and silver in the coffin, probably because he wanted to cultivate to become a fairy, and he would not need money after becoming a fairy.

Strangely, after so many years, the body of the owner of the tomb has not rotted?

Although his complexion was slightly pale and there were some corpse spots on his body, the people who were buried in the tomb at the same time had already turned into bones, so why is his corpse still well preserved?

Ye Qi asked curiously: "Could it be that he also poured mercury into himself? Isn't that a painful way to die?"

Xiao Lou shook his head: "It's not like being poured with mercury. His corpse is not the same as the boys and girls made of mercury we found. It feels more like the one mentioned in a fantasy novel... using some magic weapon to preserve the body."

Gui Yuanzhang seemed to have thought of something, and suddenly said, "Open his mouth and have a look."

Yu Hanjiang was right in front of the sarcophagus, and when he heard this, he stretched out his hand and pried open the dead man's mouth with two fingers.

A soft beam shot out from the dead man's mouth, and there was something in his mouth——

Shao Qingge narrowed his eyes: "Could it be the legendary Yuchan?"

When the ancients were buried, they often put some more valuable items in the mouth of the deceased, such as jade or night pearls.There is also a legend about the jade cicada. This kind of jade, which looks like a cicada, can prevent people from decomposing after death.

The reason why the body of the tomb owner does not corrode may be because of the "jade cicada" in his mouth.

Xiao Lou said: "Take it out and have a look?"

Yu Hanjiang took out the jade cicada the size of a thumb. The next moment, the corpse inside the sarcophagus rotted in front of everyone at a speed visible to the naked eye. The flesh and blood fell off like a wall, and finally only bones remained .

Everyone: "..."

This scene is just like a horror movie, and it makes people's scalp tingle.

At this moment, the entire maze began to shake violently again, and everyone was so shaken that they couldn't stand still, and almost bumped their heads into the wall next to them.

A door appeared on the side of the stone room, and Xiao Lou's expression changed: "Go!"

Tang Ci sent mechanical ants to explore the way, and everyone followed behind the mechanical ants, running wildly all the way.

Behind them, countless stones rolled down, gravel splashed everywhere, dust was flying in the air, and the vibration caused by the collapse of the tomb was even more terrifying than a major earthquake!

Yu Hanjiang tightly grabbed Xiao Lou's wrist and flew lightly, and the other teammates also relied on their own abilities.

Everyone used the speed of fleeing for their lives, and didn't care about other things at all. There was only one thought in their minds - run!

When they finally saw the bright light ahead and everyone jumped out, there was a loud "boom" from behind, and the entire tomb collapsed completely, and the three-story labyrinth was instantly buried by boulders and dust.

Xiao Lou looked back at the completely buried labyrinth, his heart pounding.Just now being led by Yu Hanjiang to run away, he was so nervous that he could hardly breathe, but fortunately he escaped at the last second, thinking about it really terrifies him.

Xiao Lou looked around: "Is everyone alright?"

The teammates were all ashamed, the dust flying up when the maze collapsed made everyone's hair full of ashes, and their clothes were so dirty that they couldn't be seen, as if they had rolled around in the mound...

But fortunately, they ran fast enough and no one was injured.

"It's okay!" "There is no danger."

Hearing what his teammates said, Xiao Lou breathed a sigh of relief.

At this moment, a shiny floating frame popped up in front of everyone at the same time.

[Congratulations to Xiao Lou's team for successfully clearing the square film Zhou Chang "Tomb of the Headless General", the ranking is being settled...]

[Your team spent a total of 4 hours, 38 minutes and 44 seconds in this maze challenge]

【Ranked No. [-] in the world】

[Please find the square gatekeeper to receive the reward]

Seeing the last line of prompts, everyone was stunned.

World number one?

It seems that this time, they are a blessing in disguise!

The hunters put explosives in the labyrinth, and the entire tomb was crumbling. In order to escape, they had to give up the idea of ​​experimenting fork in the road, and risked using reasoning to put all their eggs in one basket.

Instead, it turned out to be the team that took the shortest time and was the first to leave the weekly labyrinth?
