Entertaining Tomb Raider: Play Porky Bottle, Teammate Yang Mi
Chapter 939 Rattlesnake, Death Loop
Wu Jing was scratching his head embarrassedly at this moment.
"No, isn't it funny?"
Those stone statues were still spitting sand onto the disc in the middle.
"Everyone step back and stay away from this disc." Su Mu commanded in a deep voice.
Everyone then obediently took two steps back.
All stood behind these stone statues.
"This city lord's design is really perverted. There is no pattern at all."
"In Qingliang Palace, you have to stand on the disc to survive."
"Here, we have to stay away from this disc to be safe."
"This is such a mess, who can understand it?" Wu Jing complained.
"Brother Jing, please don't use your brain as a criterion, okay?"
"Didn't Su Mu see it clearly?" The four-character younger brother said to Brother Jing, "He will never be late."
"How can Su Mu be an ordinary person? You are still talking about me, do you understand?" Wu Jing counterattacked.
The four-character brother was speechless when asked.
He turned his head and ignored Wu Jing.
Wu Jing finally won the argument and felt very proud of himself.
He held his head high, looking like a victorious rooster, very proud.
"Haha, these two never stop bickering whenever they have free time!"
"I really admire them both. Don't you feel tired of fighting like this all the time?"
"You don't understand this, this is the fun between two people. If you stop them from fighting one day, they won't be used to it."
"But what Brother Jing said is indeed correct. The mayor of Gutongjing is indeed quite perverted."
"I am increasingly curious about what kind of precious things are inside that are worth all the trouble."
"I don't know what the meaning of these stone statues spitting out sand is. It looks a bit funny."
"The man above, do you dare to say that the mechanism designed by the Lord of Gutongjing is ridiculous? Be careful or he will come looking for you at night!"
"No, no, no, I give up. I was just talking nonsense."
"Tsk tsk tsk, look at your cowardly look, are you embarrassing Su Mu?"
……
More and more sand accumulated on the disc.
Soon, the sand in the mouths of the stone statues stopped.
It looks like he has vomited it all out.
Su Mu signaled to everyone else to stay where they were, and he took a step forward and looked towards the disc.
At first, the disc was quiet and motionless.
But after half a minute, a rumbling sound was heard from below.
It seems like something is moving.
"Ah! Snake, there's a snake up there!"
Reba screamed now.
Everybody saw it.
I saw an extremely thick snake moving along the edge of the disc.
"It's not a real snake, it's carved from stone."
After Su Mu saw it clearly, he turned around and explained.
"Really? It's really not a real snake?" Reba was frightened and still couldn't believe what Su Mu said.
"Of course it's real. If it was a real snake, I would have killed it with one blow."
Su Mu said this just to comfort Reba.
If this was really a real snake, Su Mu would not have killed it so quickly.
Because Su Mu knew that it would be an important part of this mechanism.
If you don't tell the truth, you will be hacked to death.
Then it is very likely that this mechanism will not work anymore. However, this lie is still very effective for Reba.
She mustered up a little courage and carefully looked at the disc again.
After seeing this, my heart finally settled down.
Sure enough, what was moving there was actually a giant snake carved out of stone.
It’s just that the carving is so lifelike, and it moves.
So when Reba looked at it for the first time, she thought it was a living snake.
"This statue is so scary. It scared me to death." Reba patted her chest and said.
As the snake moved, everyone discovered some clues.
I saw the stone snake with its mouth wide open, its entire body circling the disc.
At this moment, it is about to bite its own tail.
"What does this mean? Is this snake going to show us how it can swallow itself with its big mouth?"
Wu Jing looked at this scene with a look of surprise.
"Rattlesnake." Su Mu uttered three words lightly.
"What?" No one reacted.
"This carved snake is a rattlesnake, and it is literally about to swallow its own tail at this moment."
"The meaning of this should represent a cycle of death." Su Mu explained.
"Death loop?"
"No, no, wait a minute, let's sort it out slowly."
"Can this death be repeated?" Wu was stunned.
Su Mu nodded.
"It's actually just another way of saying eternal life."
"Many ethnic groups believe that rattlesnakes are creatures that can live forever."
"When they swallow their own tails, it means death, but it also means the beginning of a new life."
"The end of death is life! This may be the greatest wish of the Lord of Gutongjing."
So that's what it is. Everyone suddenly understood at this moment.
"Eternal life...Eternal life again!"
"I have discovered why these people are so obsessed with immortality. Among the ancient tombs we have visited, more than half of the tomb owners' ultimate goal is immortality." Wu Jing murmured.
"Not accurate." Su Mu shook his head.
"It should be said that all tomb owners have this wish."
"It's just that some of them have been discovered by us, while others are hidden deeper and we haven't discovered them yet."
As he was speaking, he saw that the rattlesnake had completely swallowed its own tail.
And as its action was completed, the disc also moved.
I saw the disc slowly starting to sink downwards.
And a rectangular object in the middle slowly rose up.
"Oh my god, this must be the secret that the mayor of Gutongjing tried so hard to cover up." Wu Jing widened his eyes in excitement.
"It's indeed too hidden. Without Su Mu's guidance, we would never be able to find this place even if we die of exhaustion." said the four-character younger brother.
"That's for sure. If Su Mu wasn't here, we wouldn't be able to get into the main hall, let alone this box," Wu Jing said.
As the rectangular object rose to the top, everyone could see it clearly.
This is a treasure chest-like object.
There are intricate patterns carved on it, the most obvious of which is a turtle.
The turtle also symbolizes longevity.
It seems that what Su Mu said was right. The mayor of Gutongjing was indeed deeply obsessed with immortality.
All objects have the meaning of symbolizing longevity.
I don't know whether he has achieved his goal after all the trouble he has gone through. (End of this chapter)
