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

Leave the field

The moment Wu Xie followed the fat man into the darkness of the hall, an extreme strangeness swept over his body in an instant. This feeling made him affirm Zhang Yan's guess that there might really be something huge in it. As soon as they entered the gate, the first thing they saw was the large stone pillars on both sides of the spiritual path in the middle of the spiritual palace, each about five meters long, and in the darkness between the stone pillars, a large black lamp slave could be vaguely seen. Behind it was pitch black, but when the flashlight shone through, there was no reflection of any light, as if there was a void there, and no funerary objects were seen.

Seeing this, the atmosphere of a group of people suddenly became more and more dull, and they silently believed in the idea that this was an empty temple, but because they had prepared in advance, their emotions were still stable.

In the dark and silent passage, even the sound of footsteps is faint,

Compared with other people with more experience, Ye Chengcai was the most unsteady and unsophisticated among the group of people. He was a talkative person and couldn't help but said after walking for a while: "What the hell?" It's so quiet, why does it feel chilly all over, the more there is no sound, the more panicked I become, let's talk, don't act like a thief—"

"Quiet, you disturbed me to sense the situation." Zhang Yan, who was at the front, suddenly interrupted Ye Cheng's words coldly. He was dragging. Ye Cheng, who still remembered what happened at the door earlier, spit twice in his heart, but also Not daring to continue to make mistakes, resisted not to speak again.

A group of people followed obediently for a while,

Just as he was approaching the center of the hall, the fat man saw that there was still nothing but darkness on both sides.

Unwilling to give up, he started a fire and wanted to light the lamp slave, and then search carefully to see if there are any hidden treasures that he missed. Seeing the fat man's movements, Wu Xie quickly pulled him back, "Fatty man, this one The building is still standing here without collapsing. The low temperature here is a very important factor. If a large number of lamp slaves are ignited, the ice crystals on the tile roof will melt, which may cause some small collapses, so it is better not to.”

Although the fat man felt that it would be okay to light only one or two lamp slaves or to collapse a little bit, but seeing Wu Xie's seriousness, he took back the fire book after a while. Nuqian hooked a little bit of lamp oil with the tip of his sword and smelled it, and said softly, "More than that, the innocence is right, this lamp cannot be lit, the oil in it is not ordinary lamp oil, it is mixed with insect fragrance jade and... eh ?”

Hearing a slight hey, a group of people who were listening to Zhang Yan's words looked at Zhang Yan immediately.

Zhang Yan didn't speak any more, but looked at the depths of the stone pillars on both sides, which was dark no matter how much electric light was used. Tan, don’t go too far in this area. If you have any problems, just follow the rope and return. I’ll be back in 10 minutes.”

Fatty's eyes lit up when he saw this, and he quickly grabbed Zhang Yan and said in a low voice, "Taoist, I believe you are fine with regards to safety, but if there is something good behind that...don't forget me, brother." Pointing the flashlight at himself, he made an expression that you understand "..." Zhang Yan looked at the fat man speechlessly, and showed a somewhat weird smile

"Okay, I'll bring you some special products" he said, stepping into the darkness next to him,

In just two steps, the white figure was submerged in the pure darkness, and the figure was completely invisible, no matter how much I used the flashlight to illuminate it.

Everyone was startled when they saw this strange situation. Ye Cheng and Monk Hua's thoughts of wanting to follow the past were suddenly extinguished by the darkness that could not be illuminated at all. They don't have the ability to live without lights in such dark places. But he was still struggling with Zhang Yan's strange smile just now, "I'll let him have some treasures, why does that stinky Taoist smile so strangely?"

Wu Xie had some guesses in his heart, and patted the fat man with a little sympathy and a sense of humor, "Although I don't know what kind of bugs Wang Zanghai hid in this temple, since there must be a lot of them if he wants to trap grave robbers." , no matter what, Fatty, your wish to get the treasure should not be fulfilled..."

"It's all because of the stinginess of this barking man. This temple is really just a superficial thing. It's full of worms. It's like feeding birds... Hey, what's that in front?" When observing, he found a black shadow that looked like a statue standing in front of him. Wu Xie estimated the distance and guessed that they should have reached the center of this spiritual hall. The place in front of this place is not a shrine for worship, but the sitting statue of the owner of the tomb in the Yunding Tiangong that he protects. Before Wu Xie can express his conjecture, the fat man with bright eyes has already rushed up with great interest, and it is too late to stop him "Fatty—"

"Don't worry, naive, if there is a problem, the stinky Taoist priest won't worry about running so fast..."

The few people who were led by the rope were grasshoppers on the same rope. As soon as the fat man ran and said, the people who were already thinking about it immediately followed, and Wu Xie was forced to walk forward by a group of people in desperation.

After walking less than ten meters, the thing has completely revealed its true face in front of everyone. This is a jade platform surrounded by several huge bronze statues with human heads and bird bodies. Other than that, other places that can be seen But it was all empty, even the giant tripod and long-burning candles that were usually used for sacrifices, warm pavilions, treasure beds, thrones, and gods. A twisted pillar covered with lichen, no one can tell what it is, looks very strange.

The fat man turned around, but still couldn't figure out what the hell it was, so he casually asked the monk Hua next to him, "What the hell is this? Isn't there a seated statue of the tomb owner in the Spirit Hall? Bark, what is this?" It can’t be that the basic regulations of the Spirit Hall have also been changed, then this trap is too perfunctory, or is the tomb owner of his Tiangong really grown up with this kind of virtue? Isn’t this... just a big leech?”

Monk Hua said, "This may be the alienated "Changshengtian" in Eastern Xia religion...their main god. "

"This god is too slick." The fat man murmured suddenly, "What's the difference between it and a laundry mallet?"

Wu Xie wanted to let the fat man shut up and gain some morals, but later he thought that this was a trap, as if it didn't matter whether he said it or not, and he knew that what Monk Hua said was a lie. Although he didn't know much about shamans, he also knew Knowing that Changshengtian has no image, Changshengtian represents a kind of ubiquitous and infinite power, which is a kind of cosmic worship.Monk Hua said that he was either flirting with the fat man or covering up his guilty conscience.

The dark and oppressive environment here did give people an inexplicable sense of tension. As soon as Zhang Yan left, except for Chen Pi Asi who had always had a dead face, everyone else behaved more or less strangely.

Wu Xie looked at the statue carefully, and it looked more like the evil gods in Haitian fetishism. The gods over there were as big as rice crackers, like giant molluscs.

Thinking of this, Wu Xie suddenly remembered the record in that copper fish: The Eastern Xia royal family are all monsters dug out of the ground, could it be this thing?No, this thing can only be said to be an evildoer, the people of Dongxia will not be so stupid as to recognize a rice crust as the emperor, right?

It would be nice to see what was recorded in the other two copper fishes.Wu Xie couldn't help thinking to himself, this way he wouldn't have to guess so hard, and he didn't know when he would have this chance.

While Wu Xie was thinking wildly, Pan Zi called out, "Look here..."

Several people turned their heads, only then did they realize that Pan Zi had actually climbed onto a bronze statue placed next to the jade platform, and was carefully taking something out of the mouth of the human-faced bird.

Not only the fat man, Pan Zi is also a troublemaker, Wu Xie immediately said nervously: "Be careful of the mechanism!"

Pan Zi nodded, holding it very carefully. Soon, a copper monkey with gilt green face and fangs came out, with countless strange patterns carved on its body, just like a little devil with tattoos.

When Pan Zi jumped down, the already curious crowd immediately gathered around to look at it, but they could only confirm that it was made of bronze, and they couldn't tell why.

Wu Xie also couldn't recognize it, so he had to look at it as a personalized funeral object, and this kind of personalized thing can only be guessed, because there are many things that only appeared once in history, except for the suffering master in the tomb. , no one can know what the intention is "what are you looking at?"

At this moment, Zhang Yan's voice suddenly sounded from behind them,

The group of people who didn't realize that someone was coming from behind were startled,

This tightening and loosening, Wu Xie and Fatty rolled their eyes at the same time, and then noticed that Zhang Yan was holding a one-meter-long black knot-shaped thing in his hand, "This is... a centipede? Why is it so big? , Taoist, I asked you to bring me a baby, so you bring me this?!" The first fat man who went up to look at it suddenly collapsed, "What kind of centipede, this is called a scorpion, although it is poisonous, it can be regarded as a baby that can be used as medicine. Besides, there are only these things on both sides of Wang Zanghai’s hall. I brought you back the precious special products here, remember to keep them well.” Zhang Yan smiled and threw the things on the fat man, who was startled by Zhang Yan and immediately moved aside With one flick, he nimbly dodged the centipede whose claws and feet seemed to be shaking slightly. "You are too much, Taoist dog! Do you bully your brother like this? You should keep this centipede as your own wife."

Chen Pi put on his gloves, squatted down, and carefully looked at the headless insect, "Are there these gnats on both sides of the hall?"

Zhang Yan hummed, put away his smile and said lightly, "It's all crawling insect passages of adults and dormant larvae and eggs. The small ones are one or two centimeters, and the largest ones I saw are three or four meters long. They are still in a deep sleep state. , and nothing else"

Chen Pi nodded, he didn't know whether to believe it or not, but his originally dark complexion became more and more ugly,

Zhang Yan didn't care what Chen Pi was thinking, he took the paper towel from Wu Xie, wiped his hands, and then looked at the small bronze statue in Pan Zi's hand, Wu Xie's expression sank when he saw the statue clearly Noticing the change in Zhang Yan's face, his curiosity suddenly arose, "Do you know what this is?"

"Do you remember the Qinling Bronze Tree? This thing came from there..."

Wu Xie was startled, and couldn't help but move away from the bronze monkey. At the same time, that strange experience that was like a nightmare suddenly came to mind, "Wang Zanghai has been there too?! Then this thing won't..." No Will it be possible to play the trick of imagery?

"It's not as serious as the one at the bronze tree." Zhang Yan took the bronze monkey and looked at it, then looked at the bronze statue next to him and said, "Monkeys are impatient, and they use their appearance to make people look like monkeys. This bronze will affect people's behavior." Spiritual sense and sense of direction, there should be four statues, if used in conjunction with the entire palace, people will get lost here, and at the same time be irritable and even kill each other. If you go further and enter the passage behind the jade gate in the distance , you will feel it, so you'd better stop here, there is no way there is anything in the apse further back, and since he made this trap into a spiritual palace, the apse that should have a passage must be Wang The location of Zang Hai's real killing move"

"So evil? Wouldn't it be okay to smash it and then go in?"

The fat man was a little unwilling and said: "Or you can tie a rope around my waist again, and if you touch something, it will be counted as your share, and it will be counted as your technical investment. Ten percent... How about it?"

Wu Xie was a little annoyed by Fatty's unscrupulous virtue in his eyes for money, and said angrily: "Fatty, you have to go crazy and wait until we all go out, don't implicate us now."

Pan Zi also said: "If you wait a while, you tie a rope and you have a thigh left when you pull it out. Do you think we will go in to find you or not? Look at how united Mr. Chen's team is. You are well, don't embarrass our third master."

The fat man let out a sigh, and said disappointedly: "Well, you have a lot of people, I can't beat you, Fatty, I just obey the organization's arrangement, and I will never betray the organization until I find out the enemy's situation."

"If you find out, you are not allowed to betray!" Wu Xie glared at the fat man, "This is even a problem with the bronze ware, let alone whether there are other things, even if there are, can you take them around?"

The fat man immediately raised his hand with a playful smile to express his surrender,

Seeing that someone has already scolded Fatty, Zhang Yan patiently said, "It's useless if you smash it. This thing has been here for more than 600 years, and changes in the field have already taken place. If you smash it rashly, it will only make the people here People's emotional changes are more intense..."

As he spoke, he took out a black box from his bag and opened it, swallowed one of the pills inside and handed it out, "This is Qingxin Dan, which is for calming the mind, one for each person, after all, after staying here for a while, it is inevitable that there will be some Influence"

Fatty Wu Xie and Pan Zi took one and swallowed one without hesitation. Chen Pi and the others saw that the people over there were fine after swallowing it, so they also took it and swallowed one by one, and handed the box back to Zhang Yan.

Zhang Yan took back the box as if nothing had happened, "If you don't read it, we will leave..." Before he finished speaking, he saw Chen Pi and the others silently continue to walk towards the closed jade gate at the end of the hall. Going on, he just shook his head helplessly, looked at Wu Xie and the others, saw that the ropes they were connected to were beginning to tighten, and followed.

Zhang Yan walked silently at the end, and quietly took out a small cylinder that was as long and wide as a little finger, then scratched himself, and used blood to force out a green mung bean-sized bug from the cylinder. Ziling, who was holding the worm, filled the worm, then cut a small opening in the clothes around Wu Xie's neck, and stuffed the copper ball into it.

Just when he was about to arrive at Yumen, Wu Xie suddenly felt a little itchy in his throat. He thought it was dust from the main hall, and he coughed subconsciously. After coughing, he saw that he didn't feel any more, so he continued to walk forward. Zhang Yan heard With this cough, he chuckled silently, and two slender silver needles appeared in his hands when he turned his hands. Immediately, Pan Zi and the fat man felt a slight chill on their necks wrapped under their clothes, and subconsciously opened them. He touched his mouth and neck, and looked back at the same time. After finding nothing unusual, he continued to walk forward.

When the four of them arrived at Yumen, Chen Pi's men were already breaking open the door.

Looking at the two dragons on the door, the fat man suddenly regained his energy, his eyes lit up, and he said to Wu Xie and Pan Zi, "I saw this kind of door at an auction. This is called the Panlong axis glazed bolt. A door was photographed for [-] million, which is still Hong Kong dollars, oh, this door doesn't look very heavy..."

Wu Xie immediately knew what he wanted to instigate, and threw him cold water: "Don't worry about it, it's hype. Now the antique transaction in cash can exceed 2000 million, which is a sky-high price. This door is worth 40 at most."

"No way..." Fatty couldn't believe it: "From 40 to 2 million? Is there such an outrageous thing?"

Just when Wu Xie unceremoniously punctured the fat man's fantasy and destroyed his world view, Zhang Yan walked to the side of Chen Pi who was commanding, "Old man, do you still want to go in?"

Chen Pi has regained his composure at this time, "The compass is still pointing inside, just look at this door."

Zhang Yan immediately stretched out his hand and signaled, "Since I'm not going in, I'll go back first. You just need to follow the rope and go back the same way later. Please take care of the old man when he takes them up."

Chen Pi glanced at Zhang Yan's hands that were now stained with black and green traces, and looked at Yumen again, "Are you going to catch up with Wu Sansheng?"

Zhang Yan smiled, "The old man has great insight..."

"The way you are walking, the few of us really can't walk?"

Zhang Yan said frankly, "I really can't go. The road I will go on is not one that people can walk on. There are also gnat nests near Yunding Tiangong. Since there are also groups of gnats here that can be attracted by Wang Zanghai, there should be insect roads near this mountain." Cracks, that's where I want to go, if it doesn't work, I can only cross the ridge."

"How much did Wu Sansheng pay?"

Zhang Yan smiled, and pointed to Wu Xie not far away, "I don't know about Lao Zhang's, but mine is an IOU of [-] million yuan. I think it's quite profitable if I use their prince's father as payment. What does the old man think?"

Chen Pi was silent for a while, then smiled coldly, "Let's go"

Zhang Yan smiled and cupped his fists, turned around and walked back the way he came.
