[Tomb Raiders Notes] Play to the depths, enter the venue by yourself

空殿

Wu Xie, who entered the main hall with his head lowered, held his flashlight and walked carefully step by step. Even though he had entered once, he felt more nervous than the first time he entered, but he was only nervous. After leaving the crowd, compared to the flustered feeling that his calves were weak and trembling, he didn't seem to be so afraid of such a dark and gloomy place, or it was because there were Pan Zi and Shun Zi beside him, so he was not so afraid now. Count as a person?

I don't know where the fat man is, whether he is trapped or just ran away after Zhang Yan's traces, Zhang Yan and his brother don't know where he is, and the third uncle... Why do these people follow the rabbit as soon as they enter the tomb? In the same way, it disappeared in a blink of an eye. Wu Xie didn't continue to let go of these chaotic thoughts that passed by. He handed the rope to Pan Zi, slowly adjusted his state, and focused all his attention on observing the ground conditions on the left and right. If you really want to disappear, you must have entered the darkness on these two sides. No one else has been to this underground palace for hundreds of years. There is a layer of hoarfrost on the ground. For those with footprints, he bent down to carefully look at the ground, and said, "Panzi, you and Shunzi go ahead first, and see if the fat man is at Yutai. If he is, let Shunzi come over and let me know. Come back to me with Sunja"

Pan Zi hesitated for two seconds before nodding, "Then young master, you should be careful..." Pan Zi made up his mind to make a quick decision, and Pan Zi, who had come back early to find Wu Xie after reading it, immediately pulled Shunzi along and followed Like running, Wu Xie couldn't help but raised his voice slightly and said, "Pan Zi take it easy!"

"Don't worry, little third master, I've gone all this way, everything will be fine!"

Wu Xie shook his head, but after seeing people, he left without a trace and couldn't keep shouting. He knew there were bugs on both sides, and he would be stupid if he wanted to shout loudly to death.

Wu Xie walked slowly for a short distance, and Chen Pi and the others caught up behind him. When he saw Wu Xie, who was standing beside him with his cat waist shining on the ground, he didn't say anything. After walking for a while, he first found a long trail of dragging mixed with some unknown juice next to a lamp slave. Although he didn't see any footprints, Wu Xie immediately understood that this should be Zhang Yan who came back to look for it before. When they were there, the trace left by the gnat he dragged on the ground, he thought for a while, tied a rope to the lamp slave at the side, and then walked in along the trace, "Grandma, it's too late, trap It’s so shabby, no wonder the rats don’t come here, we all fell into the trap of ourselves, it’s really a big loss.”

As soon as the fat man stepped into the apse, he just looked left and right beside the crane lantern, and found that there was really nothing but three coffin platforms. After that, his whole body collapsed. He looked resentfully at this time. Seeing that it was pulling the rope desperately and flying towards the wall of the left hall where the passage is located, and its direction was getting lower and lower, almost pointing to the floor, it was a little surprised, "This dog Taoist is actually in the wall? There is still room to walk inside..." Fatty's eyes lit up, he was familiar with the rules of the apse, if there is a secret passage, it must be in the apse, so is that stinky Taoist walking in the secret passage now?

The fat man became excited in an instant, and immediately followed the bug and turned to the wall to see how the other party could go. After all, if he wanted to come, he would touch or release detonators everywhere. As a result, the bug crawled against the wall for a while and then went to the wall. Crawl inside the angle between the surface and floor tiles,

"It's not even stitched. You guys still want to learn from Yu Gong. It's true that you haven't learned any of your master's reliability. It seems that the fat man has to do the ultimate trick himself." The fat man observed for a while, confused No, I felt that the bug was unreliable. He squatted down and carefully groped along the wall and floor for a while, but found no movement. He was a little impatient at first, lifted the bug in front of him and stood up. Stretched and jumped vigorously, stomped back and forth and looked at the wall to find a place to put the detonator,

At this moment, he suddenly felt that one foot that was stomping on the ground was suddenly empty. Before the fat man could react, he staggered and fell to the ground. At the same time, the ground he was on was tilted almost ninety degrees below the wall. , revealing the dark space inside, the fat man who had just rolled on the ground on the slope immediately slid in like garbage.

"Fuck me..."

After the fat man slid in, the entire sloping ground immediately returned to normal, and the entire hall became empty and quiet again.

Pan Zi and Shun Zi quickly arrived at the Yutai, and after turning around without seeing the fat man, they hung the rope on the Yutai, and hurried back to find Wu Xie. When the voice came over, the two of them immediately stopped and turned their heads, looking towards the place where the voice came from, the Beaulieu Jade Gate leading to the apse that they had opened before had actually closed itself again.

The two froze for a moment, and Pan Zi subconsciously looked down to see if he had stepped on some mechanism again. After finding nothing under his feet, he looked at Shun Zi who was looking at him. Shun Zi scratched his head. He was not familiar with this set He looked at Pan Zi a little confused and asked, "What is Boss Wang doing behind our backs, why are you closing the door secretly? Let's go in and have a look?"

Only then did Pan Zi regain his senses, his face immediately changed, "Quick, let's go find the third master!"

Shunzi immediately sensed from Pan Zi's reaction that the problem represented by this situation was very serious, so he didn't ask any further questions, and immediately ran back quickly. The vision inside was too poor and they almost bumped into each other. Chen Pi frowned slightly, stopped the two who wanted to continue running after bowing politely, and stated a question, "Is something wrong ahead?"

Although Pan Zi was a little anxious, he still nodded and replied, "Just now, the back hall door closed by itself. It must be that the fat man encountered some kind of mechanism..." Then he hurriedly asked, "Did you see the little third master?"

Chen Pi nodded, and didn't stop the two of them again.

Pan Zi clasped his fists again and continued to walk back with Shunzi, but after being stopped by Chen Pi, he didn't rush as fast as before. After Monk Hua saw that Pan Zi and the two had left, he whispered to someone who didn't know what he was thinking. Chen Pi asked, "Master, look at this..."

Chen Pi shook his head and didn't speak, and calmly continued to walk towards the apse with Ye Cheng's support.

Wu Xie was squatting on the ground at this time, staring at the footprints of the suspected fat man's half heel in a daze,

He first looked for Zhang Yan's traces before, but after tracing tens of meters, he was stopped by a wall. The traces actually stopped at the corner of the wall, as if they came out of the wall. This Wu Xie was still suspicious. There is some kind of mechanism like a rotating wall. I didn't dare to try it on my own. I just tried to push Wu Xie and started to walk back. When he returned, he found that there was a problem with the ground here. First of all, it was a problem with his senses. I don't know why. , the drag marks he followed step by step always felt curved in the feeling of his return, even the rope he held in his hand seemed to be arc-shaped, and when he returned to the side of the lamp slave he was tied to , I always feel that the lamp slave seems to have changed during his absence, but it looks like nothing unusual, but he didn't move anything except for touching the wall?

Wu Xie didn't have time to think about this for the time being, so he hurriedly found the fat man's extended footprint, but this time he only chased it a little bit. At this time, he was staring at the footprint in front of him in a daze. The junction of the floor tiles, but now the traces that should have been behind have disappeared out of thin air.

From the point of view of the organs, it can only be that the ground in the darkness on both sides is actually somewhat movable, and the fat man may not know how many organs he stepped on, Wu Xie sighed deeply.

At this moment, the rope in his hand was obviously pulled artificially,

Wu Xie quickly pulled back to indicate that he was there, and then started to return along the rope.

Going back to the lamp slave from that darkness again, he saw Pan Zi and Shun Zi waiting by the rope. When he saw Wu Xie coming out of the darkness, Pan Zi immediately said, "Something happened, Fatty, he It seems to have entered the apse, and the door of the apse suddenly closed by itself just now."

"Closed it by yourself?" Wu Xie thought for a while, and was annoyed to find that if the fat man hadn't found Zhang Yan and turned back afterwards, he might have secretly gone to see it by himself, not to mention that he had sent someone behind the door in Chenpi I also took a look when I was exploring. There are faint murals painted on the corridor behind the door, and it doesn’t seem to be as dark as the two sides. This fat man must have been itching for a long time. Wu Xie said sullenly, "He Damn, let's rush over now." I just hope that fat man can hold on now...

Arriving at the entrance of the apse again, Chen Pi groped the door carefully, and asked Monk Hua to take a closer look, but after finding nothing unusual, he asked Lang Feng and Ye Cheng to push the door open again, and the four of them walked through the narrow corridor carefully. It looks like a gray mural full of centipedes or gnats, which is frozen in ice. It was like facing a big enemy but nothing happened. After walking about 200 meters, the corridor came to the end. The lampstand with a bronze crane foot was half as tall as a person and had a strange shape. A layer of white ice film was formed on it, making the color look darker. The four of them carefully crossed the lampstand and entered the apse.

The pattern of the apse is almost the same as that of the main hall, but it is much smaller. There is not even the light-absorbing paint on both sides of the main hall, so you can directly see the walls of the surrounding halls. Bright red, now frozen to gray.

Except for these murals, the apse is empty, there is no one they want, and there are no funerary objects. They don't even need to search for it at a glance.

Three black Leiwen Panlong stone beds were placed horizontally in the middle, and the wooden slabs carved with cloud edges on the platforms were all cracked by the cold. A place for temporary storage of dead bodies.

Seeing that there was nothing there, it could be said that the palace was too empty, Ye Cheng, who had always had a problem with Zhang Yan, was the first to attack, "You really are a dead liar, and you said that the apse is the most dangerous, and there is nothing here."

Monk Hua directly slapped Ye Cheng on the head, "Kicked by a donkey? There's really nothing, how did the door close?"

"We didn't get stuck on purpose when we came in this time, and who knows if it was just a trick they deliberately bluffed or stepped on outside..." Ye Cheng rubbed his head and grumbled hard, but Chen Pi became more gloomy Seeing that Ye Cheng had shut up, Chen Pi cautiously knocked on the wall where the passageway was located, and asked the other three people to go to the other three sides for a brief test, and continued walking after they found nothing abnormal. , the four people walked behind the stone bed, and there was a huge square stone slab protruding from here. Two human-faced birds were engraved on the stone slab in a circle shape. In the middle of the stone slab was embossed a picture of Tai Chi Eight Diagrams—this is the tomb-sealing stone, according to According to the regulations of the underground palace, if there is an entrance, it must be under this stone slab.

Monk Hua and Lang Feng checked first, and lifted the stone slab after finding nothing abnormal.

But after they pushed it away, there was no trace of the entrance to the secret passage under the stone platform [there is no stone to seal the tomb door], but the same blue bricks as the side, but because the stone slab was pressed on it for a long time A hundred years ago, there was a square imprint on the ground. When I rubbed it with my feet, it felt uneven. The green bricks under the stone slab had been pressed into the bottom a few centimeters.

The three of them stopped immediately, looked at each other and then at Chen Pi at the same time,

Chen Pi took the compass and walked around this place, and after confirming that the compass pointed to the center no matter how he turned, he said concisely, "Continue"

The three nodded and continued to knock on the bricks on the floor.

The fat man rolled all the way in a low and sloping space. He felt as if he had run over countless amputated insects along the way, and even scratched his face several times. He finally stopped when he hit something standing up like a wire. There are still good-hearted people here who are covered with barbed wire?The fat man shook his head and shook his body, trying to get up, and at the same time, he shone the flashlight on his chest there. He was stunned for a moment when he saw it—what kind of barbed wire is that? The thousand feet of a giant scorpion dragon of three or four meters!

As if feeling the light source or heat, the gnat moved, and at the same time, some rustling sounds came from the place where the fat man rolled down or even from under his feet. It was the little gnat that he woke up along the way, and the fat man shut down instantly. I took out the flashlight, took out the light stick and folded it, and wanted to run. Before I could stand upright, I hit the roof with a bang. The height of the space he was in was at most one meter. The fat man didn’t dare to shout, and he didn’t have time to care about his feet. He covered his head and ran away. With the light sticks that were slowly lighting up, he could already see the thousand feet that blocked him before were slowly bouncing and stretching. When he hit him, the giant The gnats seemed to be waking up, and the fat man had to change direction within a minute of running, because in front of him was a stone layer and a brick wall, and at the same time, there were gray gnats parked on it, but even if he kept changing the direction, he still couldn’t get out. This is an area of ​​unknown structure, and at the same time, the rustling sound behind him is getting louder, and more and more gnats are awakened by him, it seems that the insects in the whole space are slowly waking up, "No, no, so Running around, I have to go to see Marx, I can’t hold it anymore.” The fat man who was still running wildly kept beating the gnats that started to crawl or fell on his body, and at the same time took the time to plug his ears with cotton and shook them vigorously. The small copper ball hanging from the finger shakes out the worm that quickly hid back into the copper ball when the fat man pressed it down, leaving only a thin thread outside, but the female worm that was forced to operate was moving to a place. After flying for a while, it retracted into the copper ball in an instant, "This worm is a bastard, it shrinks so fucking fast, it's really unreliable..."

Knowing that there must be a reason for the bug's abnormality, the fat man couldn't care less. After seeing the direction clearly, he ran there without thinking, and at the same time pulled out the detonator at his waist, "Grandma's, although it's not a signal flare, but The victory is that the movement is quite loud, if it really rings, the Taoist priest must be more reliable and save the scene in time..."

Soon, the fat man was forced to stop, and a huge black shadow was rushing towards the fat man. It was a giant gnat. As soon as he rolled, he pulled out the wooden barn and shot. The gnat that was shot felt a little painful. He stopped in place for a while, and the fat man took the opportunity to get up and run. He raised his hand and continued to shoot randomly without aiming. Throw away "Boom——"

A gust of air surged, causing the desperately running fat man to turn over a few somersaults. The fat man shook off his body and took the time to look back. With the help of the endless flames behind him, he seemed to be able to vaguely see more huge black shadows. Climbing here, the fat man screamed and ran faster, "My grandma, come and save me—"

Wu Xie, Pan Zi and the others quickly rushed to the entrance of the apse. When there were still six or seven meters left, they suddenly felt a slight shock under their feet. The hinged door unexpectedly squeezed out the lever slowly and firmly again and began to close. Although the vibration was not particularly strong, and even the main hall did not shake, Wu Xie and the three immediately turned pale with shock, and hurried forward Pan Zishunzi and Pan Zishunzi stuck the door shaft again and quickly passed through the corridor to rush in, but after entering, the three people who originally thought they would see a tragic scene only saw that they were intact and roasting around a big pit The four monks Hua, who were made of a black turtle-shaped stone, looked at Wu Xie, who was out of breath and nervous, and the other two. The evil three faced each other in silence for a while,

Seeing the awkward atmosphere, Monk Hua first said, "Are you in danger outside?"

Wu Xie and the others looked at each other, and Pan Zi said first, "We felt a vibration when we were outside, so it's fine, have you seen the fat man?"

Monk Hua shook his head, "I didn't see it. The vibration should be somewhere underground. We're not sure where it came from. We thought it was something happened to you outside..."

Seeing that the three of them looked at the stone turtle they were roasting again, Monk Hua, who was determined to resolve the embarrassment caused by Zhang Yan's accident before, smiled and invited, "This is the guy who made our compass malfunction before. A magnetic meteorite, the old man asked us to bake off the magnetism so that we can find a place later, you can also come over and warm up along the way."

"That's a good relationship, thank you." Wu Xie suppressed that the movement just now might have come from the uneasiness of the fat man and nodded with a smile. He motioned for Pan Zi and Shun Zi, who were already a little moved, to go to warm up and walk around the apse by himself. After walking around, I still found nothing and walked over.
