Chapter 399 If you take out that box, you will die.
There are too many murals in this tomb.
When Su Shixia looked at the mural before, he just glanced at it briefly and noticed only the main events depicted in the mural without studying the details at all.
Now that all the light had converged on that spot, she noticed that there was also a sacrificial scene depicted on the lower left side of the mural.
Hundreds of people gathered around the high altar and kowtowed to it.
On the altar, nine priests wearing gorgeous sacrificial robes, bird feather masks, and holding various magical instruments were dancing around a small box in the center.
As the light converged on the box, there was a "click" sound, as if some hidden mechanism was suddenly activated.
Even the priests around the box seemed to have come alive and began to rotate around the box.
"Miss, there is obviously a mechanism on the mural. You must be careful and don't approach it easily!"
Forsythia reminded loudly from the side.
She was so anxious that she wanted to rush directly to Su Shixia, but remembering that Su Shixia had told her not to get close, and Xiao Qin Zhan was still in her arms at the moment, she could only resist the impulse and just rush towards her. The guards nearby signaled them to be on alert and be ready to deal with emergencies at any time.
"Do not worry."
Su Shixia heard Forsythia's nervousness, smiled, turned to comfort her and said, "I know it well."
"Ye Li deliberately led me here. He definitely didn't just let me see the murals. It's not surprising that there are mechanisms here."
"If he didn't set up any mechanisms at all, I would be even more suspicious of his purpose and intentions."
While the two of them were saying these words, the nine priests on the mural had already circled the box nine times in a row.
The sound of the mechanism being turned finally stopped.
Everyone stared at the mural nervously, and saw that in the middle of the mural, where the box was originally depicted, in the middle of the altar, it suddenly slowly protruded from the wall.
Forsythia's sharp eyes, and the fact that she was standing just to the side of the mural, allowed her to immediately identify something hidden behind the stone tiles of the mural with just one glance.
"Miss, there seems to be a box inside."
Forsythia squinted her eyes to carefully identify the box. The more she looked at it, the tighter her brows became.
"That box looks exactly like the box painted on the mural!"
"That's what my master is going to give you."
Feng Jiu, who had been kneeling quietly at the exit of the corridor before, suddenly spoke at this moment.
Everyone turned their heads immediately after hearing this, and everyone's eyes instantly focused on Feng Jiu.
Even the two guards who had been guarding Feng Jiujiu became nervous, and the long sword on Feng Jiujiu's neck moved closer to the side of her neck.
His neck could already feel the stinging pain of the sharp edge of the long sword slicing through his skin, but Feng Jiu seemed to have his five senses blocked. He didn't even blink his eyelids. A pair of dark eyes were fixed on the There was a strange arc on Su Shixia's lips.
"Take out that box and you'll die."
"You'll never know the real truth until you take out that box."
"Su Shixia, this time, I want to see what you will choose!"
"Oh? Will I die if I take out that box?"
Su Shixia raised her eyebrows, stepped out of the floor tile where she had stood to confirm the mechanism, and walked straight towards the raised mural.
"Miss! Don't be impulsive!"
"Mother! She said you will die if you touch that box. Mother, don't touch it!"
Forsythia and Xiao Qinzhan shouted in unison.
Xiao Qin Zhan struggled even more anxiously in Forsythia's arms. He was about to jump to the ground and run to find Su Shixia.
Seeing that Su Shixia had already reached the mural, he stretched out his hand, and his fingertips were about to touch the box. Feng Jiu's eyes became brighter and brighter, and the smile on his lips was almost crazy.
But just a second before touching the box, Su Shixia's hand suddenly stopped, and then she even retracted her arm.
"Hey, it seems that I read it right. You really want me to die quickly."
Su Shixia turned to look at Feng Jiu with a half-smile.
Under Feng Jiu's angry gaze, she raised her chin towards the two guards guarding Feng Jiu.
"Bring Feng Shijiu to me."
"No! I can't enter the tomb, that's a rule handed down from our ancestors! I'm a member of the Feng family, I can't..."
Feng Jiu struggled wildly, but she couldn't stand up to two tall men by herself.
But as soon as she shouted a few times, the guards covered her mouth and dragged her to Su Shixia.
"You two should retreat first and stay with Zhan'er and my second brother. Leave the rest to me."
While Su Shixia was talking to the two guards, she reached out and pinched Feng Jiu's neck tightly. In a holding posture, she clamped Feng Jiu's chin, forcing her to look up at the mural in front of her. .
"Didn't I just say that Shen Shen Nao was talking about it? If I take this box, I will die. If I don't take that box, I will never know the truth."
Su Shixia sneered:
"Since you have even said this, you should be very clear about this mural and the doorway of this mechanism, right?"
"Tell me."
Su Shixia raised her chin towards the mural in front of her.
"What are the sacrificial scenes depicted on this mural worshiping?"
"Why set up a mechanism here? What will happen after this mechanism is activated?"
"I do not know."
Even though his life gate was already in Su Shixia's hand, as long as Su Shixia's hand was harder, he could easily break his neck.
But Feng Jiu still insisted on his bottom line of principles and refused to reveal anything.
"I do not know anything."
She raised her neck high and said with a fearless attitude:
"My master only asked me to bring you to this tomb and trick you into touching this mechanism."
"That's what the master ordered. I followed the master's arrangements and successfully completed the task."
Feng Jiu said: "I don't know anything extra. If you think I'm no longer useful, you can just kill me right now."
"You won't tell me even to the death?"
Su Shixia raised her eyebrows and asked in a loud voice.
Feng Jiu closed his eyes directly this time.
"just kill me."
"Oh, he is worthy of being a member of the Feng clan who has been loyal to the Holy Emperor for nearly a thousand years, and he is worthy of being a loyal servant raised by Ye Li."
Su Shixia praised her twice, but there was no anger on her face, and there was even a little smile in her eyes.
"Since you are so anxious to die, I can't stop you, so I'll just give you a ride."
"If you want to kill, just kill, no need to talk nonsense."
As soon as a disdainful sneer appeared on Feng Jiu's face, she felt Su Shixia's other hand suddenly grasp her wrist.
