Chapter 172 Special Ways
"How many floors are there on the stone steps?" Xiao He complained impatiently, pouting.

"It should be soon! We have been walking for almost half an hour, and it will be the end no matter how long it takes." Xiao Wang said uncertainly.

"I'm afraid you are thinking too much. We haven't even met the torch just now." Yu Feng said bluntly, he was also a little tired and anxious, and it was really uncomfortable to walk up the stone steps at the end.

"No, half an hour is enough to go down to a very deep position, let's stop for a while." Tang Yulou stopped suddenly, his face became very serious, with these annoyed expressions.

He was shocked by Xia Yanru's ability from the beginning of searching the mountain, and when the other party could easily find the mechanism, he subconsciously forgot his identity and habitually relied on Xia Yanru, but this stone step woke him up.

According to their judgment on this ethnic burial group, the scale is indeed unprecedentedly large, but such a large ethnic burial group naturally has many tombs, and they have only just reached the front end of the entire ethnic burial group. It's the middle section, and it's impossible to be so deep.

"Old Tang, what's the matter?" Professor Sun asked nervously when he saw Tang Yulou's expression was not right.

"We seem to have walked for more than half an hour, but in fact the distance traveled is only 5 minutes at most, and we are basically standing still." Tang Yulou said with certainty.

"Could it be that we encountered a ghost hitting the wall?" Yu Feng was the first to react. The three of them had encountered it before, and they were no strangers to this situation.

"It's a little different from ghosts hitting the wall." Tang Yulou shook his head, did not continue to explain why it was different, but took out a dagger and came to the wall, scraped some rock dust on the wall with the dagger, and put it on his nose Smell the bottom.

After a while, Tang Yulou shook off the rock powder in his hand, "Sure enough, the walls on both sides should have been tampered with, and a special powder was applied on the outer layer of the wall, and this powder will volatilize a small amount of toxin when heated. , although it is not fatal, but it will disturb the thinking and judgment of the poisoned person, that is to say, as long as we are poisoned by this kind of poison, no matter how we walk on this stone step, we will not be able to reach the end."

"Hurry up, put out the torch first." Professor Sun ordered after hearing this.

As soon as the torch was extinguished, the entire stone passage became much darker in an instant. The person holding the torch quickly found a flashlight to illuminate it. He had been using a torch before, purely to save the battery consumption of the flashlight. Keep using the torches, that's arsenic for idiots - stupid as hell.

"Extinguishing the torch can only reduce the volatilization of the powder. We have to think of another way." Tang Yulou was a little helpless. Now that extinguishing the torch is not effective, they have all inhaled the toxin, and they must either detoxify now or find another way.

Xia Yanru lowered her eyes and pondered. Since Tang Yulou could think of this, the toxin of the powder is indeed not powerful, but even her physique that has been transformed by supernatural powers and clear spring water can be tricked, which shows that this kind of poison is not simple.

However, this is a group of family burials, and there was no flashlight for lighting in the past. When the funeral people entered here, they could only rely on heat sources such as torches for lighting. Then, wouldn’t they pass this stone step every time they go to the tomb for funerals? How did they get through safely?
"Then what should we do? This place is really gloomy, and there is a particularly unpleasant smell. If this continues, even if we don't die of exhaustion, we will die of starvation and thirst." Xiao Wang was crying, and had been in a hurry just now , I didn't even bother to pay attention to the environment of the stone step passage. After stopping for a while, my senses returned, and I became much more sensitive to the surrounding situation.

Xiao Wang's complaints reminded Xia Yanru that she actually felt the smell here not long after she stepped down the stone steps, but this time, she has gone down to the tomb twice in total, so she is not familiar with this place , I thought this unpleasant smell was normal. After all, it is a place where dead people are buried, and it has not been ventilated for many years, so the smell will naturally not be pleasant.

"Hey, it's true, it smells like urine." Yu Feng took a sharp sniff, the stench almost sent him away, and immediately covered his nose and said.

Tu Hongxing beside him rolled his eyes speechlessly, saying that it stinks, and he dared to smell it like that, and he didn't know how his brain grew.

"Sister Xia, what should we do?" Tu Hongxing came to Xia Yanru who was observing the wall and asked.

Moving the light source of the flashlight away from the wall, Xia Yanru turned around and comforted, "Don't worry, there will be a solution."

In fact, after she checked it just now, she already had some speculations, but she still needs to verify it. This is a method she hesitates, but she also knows that it will definitely not work if it goes on like this, and she doesn't know when she will be able to leave if she counts on other people. Stone passage.

"Director Tang, I have an idea, please listen to it and see if you can give it a try." Xia Yanru finally decided to give it a try.

"Tell me." Tang Yulou's eyes lit up and he said quickly.

"There are traces of burning on the walls on both sides. The closer the wall is to the wall, the stronger the smell is. It should be that someone once splashed urine on the wall and roasted it with fire to detoxify in this way." Xia Yanru said in a calm and unwavering tone. , but the people who heard these words had different expressions.

"No, it can't be, throwing urine in the tomb is disrespectful to the ancestors, don't you just talk nonsense?" Xiao Wang looked disbelieving.

"Boy pee, drive away evil spirits and avoid evil." Xia Yanru gave him a cold look, and continued to speak in a calm tone.

"Indeed, there is a saying that usually evil things are negative, and boy urine is positive. Unprepared, even if this is the way to detoxify, it can’t be used.” Tang Yulou sighed helplessly, he had prepared a lot of equipment that might be used in the tomb in the past, but this boy was the only one who didn’t pee. Prepare.

"Unmarried men are also fine, as long as Yuan Yang is not lost." Speaking of this, Xia Yanru did not show her face, but her tone was not as calm as before, but the change was not big, and no one could hear these slight changes.

Following Xia Yanru's words, the scene fell into an embarrassing situation for a while. Tang Yulou rubbed his nose uncomfortably and took a step back. He was a married person, so Yuan Yang was gone eight lifetimes ago.

"Ahem, what, this difficult task depends on you young people." Professor Sun said with a dry cough.

Yu Feng looked at Xia Yanru with some uncertainty, and asked in a daze, "Sister Yanru, are you sure?"

Nodding her head, Xia Yanru was very sure, in fact, boy urine must be the most suitable, but they didn't prepare in advance, so they can only win by quantity, with so many male compatriots, it should be enough.

"Okay, let's see the five of us." Yu Feng spread his hands and said to Tu Hongxing and the others.

"I can't." The inch-headed man said three words lightly, and he retreated to Tang Yulou's side.

The four of Yu Feng didn't understand at first, why he couldn't do it anymore, and he didn't look like he was married?Just stunned for a moment, all four of them suddenly realized that Yuan Yang, the co-author, was no longer there.

"Yes, young man." Yu Feng laughed teasingly.

"Don't talk nonsense, hurry up." Tu Hongxing gently pushed him, the detoxification was imminent, there was no time to waste on these gossips.
