Tomb Raider's Notes of Qilin City Lord

Chapter 130

130 1 Chapter Thirty Nine Dragons Carrying the Corpse Coffin

At this time, Wu Xie was completely shocked by the huge bronze door in front of him. Not only him, but also a dozen people with him were all speechless for a moment because they had never seen such a magnificent door.

Before, I only took a few glances at the little brother's back, but now it looks like it is indeed very big and exaggerated. No wonder they were all stunned.Especially its height, let me say it is enough to put a lot of pressure on the neck of anyone looking at it.

Wu Xie thought a lot while looking at it. This door must be at least 30 meters high and 60 meters wide. It looks like it is a bronze product that is cast in one piece and weighs tens of thousands of tons. Such a miracle was definitely not possible in ancient times. What can be cast is difficult even in modern times.

Who built this giant gate standing on the rock?Who can open such a door?What is its function?I thought about the sentence "King Wan Nu is not a human being", or maybe this is not for human beings... Then how did this King Wan Nu come out... This is different from the giant monster in the deep mountains of Qinling Mountains that I have seen before. There are many similarities between the Bronze Sacred Trees. Could they be related in some way... I thought I would be able to find out the truth, but it turned out that a bigger mystery was added... Wu Xie had a headache...

Aning looked at the door and said to Wu Xie: "This must be the giant underground door where the Wannu emperors appeared in the legend of Eastern Xia. Every time the dynasty changed, they would use the skins of human animals again to seal the door. Guess... …Where is this place?”

Wu Xie decided that this was not a place that ordinary people could open, so he shook his head and replied: "No matter where it is, we will never be able to get in."

My little brother and I looked out from the gap in the rock where the Yin soldiers were. We could see their tiny figures through the light of their signal flares. The little brother said, "Girl, turn off the lights."

I immediately followed the instructions, and with a wave of my hand, the little moon began to turn into a small cloud, and then "popped" from the center and dispersed like mist, automatically teleporting back to my pocket.Suddenly there was no light source around either of us.

As their flares gradually extinguished, the only light that could be seen at the bottom of the valley was their small light spot in the distance. The darkness at the bottom of the valley gave people an inexplicable sense of fear, and a chill came up. , I shrank closer to my little brother, and my free hand went to the arm he was holding me on.

Wu Xie was still immersed in infinite shock and thinking wildly.Pan Zi patted him and said, "Little Third Master, go down." This brought Wu Xie back to reality.

Soon after, they arrived at the bottom of the valley one after another, carefully stepping on the bones under their feet, and walked to the giant bronze door to look at it up close. They felt even more shocked. Suddenly Wu Xie felt that he had become so small.

Wu Xie stood in front of the door and continued to think wildly. He inadvertently looked up and saw that the fat man had walked far away and was shining his flashlight into the middle of the rift valley.

Wu Xie then noticed that the area at the bottom of this underground rift valley was quite large, with a width of 600 meters. The gravel on the ground was like a small mountain. In the middle of the rift valley, a huge boulder mountain was broken into small ones. There is a pyramid-like platform with a long stone step built on one side of the stone. There is a small lamp slave on both sides of each step.

I pulled my brother and asked him softly: "Brother, you can't go there, right?"

The little brother sighed deeply. It seemed that the little brother didn't really want them to get close to the things over there.Then the danger here must be over there.From the look on his face, I guess he said "wait".

At this time, the fat man's attention was focused on the white stone coffin the size of a car placed on the stone platform.

That one should be King Wannu. He placed himself in front of the bronze door. This was probably for the convenience of traveling and resurrecting.I told my brother before at the Undersea Tomb that I had seen a man with many arms in the information. There were centipedes here, and they said he was not a human. Now that I think about it, maybe the one in the painting is the one in the sarcophagus. It’s the portrait of King Wannu.

Wu Xie walked over and saw nine stone-carved hundred-legged dragons coiled under the coffin, forming the image of a lotus. There were also four black kneeling stone figures standing around, facing all directions.In front of the coffin is a large cauldron for holding sacrifices, and behind it is a screen wall, but it is unclear what is carved on it.

In fact, when he saw the shadow coffin, Wu Xie thought that the body of King Wannu might have been buried in the sky, and he probably couldn't find the real coffin, but this... Wu Xie said in surprise: "Could this be... King Wannu?" The coffin was carried in Kowloon?"

The fat man looked at it with good eyes and said: "This is definitely it. Who didn't say that? King Wannu's coffin is guarded by nine dragons. Look, there are nine big centipedes under the coffin. I thought it was tangerine peel. The old guy was trying to trick us at the time, but I didn’t expect it to be true!”

Suddenly Aning and the others started to get excited, and a few anxious ones couldn't hold it any longer and ran over excitedly.

But Aning seemed to have seen something and hurriedly stopped them and shouted: "Don't go there, it's dangerous!" The people who ran past stopped immediately when they heard the leader's words.

Aning continued to say loudly: "Didn't you see the centipede dragon under the coffin?"

The fat man felt strange, so he turned to Aning and said, "My aunt, that's made of stone. It's dangerous. What the hell are you looking at?"

Wu Xie looked at Aning, and saw that her delicate eyebrows were raised, and she said with an extremely serious expression: "What the hell do you have in your eyes? I'm not talking about those stone sculptures. Look carefully at the edge of the stone platform!"

Wu Xie also hurriedly looked carefully. He looked left and right and was puzzled. He really couldn't see what was coming, so he asked: "A Ning, where is it? Point it to me."

Aning used the flashlight as a teaching stick and pointed towards the stone platform. Wu Xie stared at the place where Aning was shining. At first, he didn't think there was anything wrong. But after a while, the stone platform suddenly seemed to move. , he was startled and said: "This stone platform can move!" After looking carefully, he became nervous and said: "What is coiled on this stone platform is a volcano centipede, but it is too big, this one must have Five or six meters long..."

At this time, the fat man also looked out and said: "Holy crap, nine big insects! They're alive...the color of this damn thing is almost the same as that of a volcano. I thought it was a relief on a stone..."

I had long expected that there would be nine big insects, which was not a surprise. However, Wu Xie said that they were five or six meters long. The one that was more than one meter long scared me to death. These five or six meters are indeed too big, and there are still many of them. , Fortunately, the little brother didn’t take me over to appreciate them, and went directly around. He was so kind.Aning said to them: "This volcano centipede is a carnivorous insect, very ferocious and fast. If you had climbed up the stone platform just now, you would have been bitten in two immediately. Our body shape is exactly what they like to prey on." object."

Wu Xie looked at them and felt that this thing was definitely a mutated monster.

A Chinese expert in Aning's team said to himself: "It's so strange. The lifespan of this kind of centipede is usually only two or three years. The insect should be dead when it is only as long as a finger. These few can To grow to such a big size, have you lived for thousands of years?"

I said to myself, it’s normal to have a few bugs here...

When they saw the giant insect, their faces began to turn pale, and they raised their weapons while retreating.

The Chinese expert said: "You don't need to be so nervous. It's winter now, the temperature here is still low, and the centipedes are still in hibernation. These giant insects will not wake up so easily."

Aning said: "It's not easy to wake up, but it is possible to wake up anyway. For us people, it is an excellent hibernation snack for them."

The fat man also felt that it was better to kill him and he said: "Whether it wakes up or not, I will go over and put a few bullets on their head. Even if it is ten times bigger, it will be dead immediately. Then we will go and take a look." Is this King of Ten Thousand Slaves who crawled out of the ground and does not age, a human or a monster?"

Pan Zijue waved his hands and said, "Absolutely not. You forgot that Shunzi said that dead centipedes will wake up other hibernating companions. This rift valley runs through the entire Changbai Mountain System. Do you know how many centipedes there are? When the time comes, no bigger guy will come out to avenge his disciples."

When Pan Zi said this, Fatty gave up the idea.

Wu Xie raised the night vision binoculars and looked at the big and scary centipedes again. Because the big ones were so abnormal, he still didn't believe that this thing was alive. What if it was just a fossil of an ancient insect...

Looking at it, he saw a lot of Jurchen writings on the screen wall behind the coffin. He would get a little excited every time he saw the writings in the tomb, because there might be clues in them. The little man who read Jurchen writing pulled him over and asked him to help him read what was written on it.

The little man looked at it with a telescope, and said to him with a confused look on his face: "These characters are very similar to Jurchen characters, but they are not Jurchen characters. They should be another character of the same language family. I will know it after a while." I don’t know what to write either.”

Wu Xie was disappointed when he heard this, and sighed, thinking to himself, yes, if it were easy to understand, a person like Wang Zanghai, who was as thoughtful as possible, stayed here for so long, and directly participated in the renovation of the ancient imperial tomb, wouldn't it be Isn't it possible to find out the core of the secret that the Wannu Dynasty wants to hide?

Just as I was thinking about it, I heard Pan Zi shouting from the side: "Fat man? Are you okay? How about someone else?"

Wu Xie's heart skipped a beat, and suddenly a bad premonition came over him. Pan Zi called Fatty a name he didn't like hearing the most, because it was bound to be up to no good...

At this time, I heard a very heavy sigh from the guy next to me. The situation seemed to be getting worse, but we had other things to do, and we couldn't stop them now.

At this moment, the fat man and Kirk had climbed up a chain and reached the air above the coffin. The fat man was tying a rope around his waist. He probably wanted to hang from the chain and hover above the coffin. Not only did the others not stop him, they also Keep giving the fat man directions.

Wu Xie's head suddenly got dizzy and he hurriedly asked Aning: "What's going on? Are these people going to watch the Nine Dragons Opera Fat Pearl?"

Aning seemed to think there was no problem and said to him: "It's okay. Generally speaking, this method will not disturb the hibernating centipedes, and I just discovered that the tails of the centipedes are locked with bronze chains on the stone piles under the stone platform. Their activities The range is limited, and only those who approach on foot are in danger. They all come here to see what is in King Wannu’s coffin, but now that they have found the coffin and cannot look at it, no one can help it.”

Although Wu Xie actually wanted to take a look, he still felt it was inappropriate and said: "Even if Fatty can hang down, he can't open the stone lid of such a huge coffin. I think you are just watching him make a fool of himself. "

Aning said: "He didn't open the coffin lid. He stuck the coffin opening hook into the gap of the coffin. We hung a pulley on a bronze chain above, and then we hoisted the coffin lid here."

I whispered: "They insist on opening it to see if they think that what they are looking for may be in King Wannu's coffin. His boss is Jude Kao. What does Jude Kao want? What he once cared about most was Immortality, this King of Ten Thousand Slaves can live forever and be resurrected, so what he is looking for is..." No, I am a bit stuck thinking about this, anyway, I just want to find something.

Wu Xie felt very uncomfortable when she saw the posture of An Ning and the others, because An Ning was still fulfilling her company's work obligations and looking for something in the coffin. Even at this point, she still did not give up. I'm not sure whether I can get out or not. I'm so persistent. What can make people feel more important than their own lives?

Now I am more worried about Fatty. There are so many bronze chains on the coffin bed. Wang Zanghai would not have thought of their tricks when designing it. This coffin is so important, but there are no preventive measures on it. There must be something fishy.This silly fat man must have become a pioneer because he wanted to be the first to open the coffin and gain some benefits. If not, he must be stopped.

At this moment, the fat man was adjusting his bungee jumping position. When he saw that Kirk next to him was jumping faster than him, he was stunned in confusion. Just when he was at a loss, he suddenly flew up. , danced in the air for a while, and then fell straight down. Fortunately, he had a rope around his waist. When his head was about to hit the coffin, the rope straightened and stopped. There was Kirk's body under his head.

Wu Xie almost fainted from fright. The two of them looked like they were pushed down by something...

I was also stunned and said: "Brother, this is really bad..."
