Chapter 45: Escape from the Dead

Originally, there was always a path that one person could barely pass through those bone piles, so the formation of the three of them was Zha Wenbin at the head, Zhuo Xiong in the middle, and He Yichao at the rear. [ _ ] Chaozi’s shout just now didn’t get a response. At this moment, everyone was already extremely nervous, and the walking speed naturally became a jog.

When Zha Wenbin passed the bronze coffin, he slowed down a little, went around and continued on.Zhuo Xiong passed by here and took a look, my god, there is a bronze coffin here, and the volume is bigger than the four above!He paused for a while and took a look at the bronze coffin, not thinking that Chaozi behind him only had the opposite stone wall in his mind at the moment, a brake failed to stop, and hit his back with a "bang".

Zhuo Xiong didn't stand still, and almost subconsciously supported the chain hanging on it with his hands. His palm hurt, and he let out a "hiss" in his mouth. He opened his palm and saw that the middle finger had been punctured. There was a hole, Zhuo Xiong was originally wearing rappelling gloves, but this kind of military tactical gloves, for the convenience of movement, the index finger is exposed outside.

It turned out that there were still a few empty shells of snails on the chain. These snails were the kind of nailed snails with a particularly hard tail. They had been dead for a long time. Although they were very brittle, they became sharper. Pinch, it just happened to pierce the exposed finger, this kind of small cut, for this guy who was born as a scout, it wasn't even considered an injury, but just like that, it almost killed everyone!

After Zhuo Xiong was grabbed by the chain, Chaozi behind didn't know what happened, and muttered: "Blind man, you should hurry up, you are saving people in front, what are you doing here?" Cha Wenbin in front Hearing the subsequent conversation, he turned his head and saw that Zhuo Xiong was pointing to the coffin and said, "Look, Chaozi, there is another coffin bigger than the one above!" Wen Bin yelled that sentence: "Get your hands away!" The drop of blood on Zhuo Xiong's finger had already landed on the bronze coffin with a "tick". Almost at the same time, the iron chains that originally hung the coffin began to violently Shaking, gravels kept falling from the top of the head, the sudden scene in front of them made Chao Zi and Zhuo Xiong unexpected, but the scout's keen premonition was vividly reflected at this moment.

Zha Wenbin said: "Run!" Before the word fell, the two jumped together, and both of them crossed the path that could only be passed by leaning their bodies, and rushed towards the front. Only one thought remained in Zha Wenbin's mind : Hurry up and rush out of this bone formation first!The crackling sound of broken stones falling and smashing bones could be heard incessantly, combined with the "cracking" sound of the ancient bronze chains thousands of years ago, resounding throughout the ancient underground river road. If they could stop and take a look, they might be even more surprised.

The moment Zhuo Xiong's blood dripped onto the bronze coffin, the bronze rust caused by the long-term flooding began to slowly peel off, and the hidden quaint patterns began to appear on the coffin lid. If Cha Wenbin could have time to look at it at this time At a glance, you will definitely find that these patterns belong to the same kind of "text" as the ones he saw on the wall of the General Temple. These ancient and mysterious patterns seem to have been wiped by someone, and they have returned to their newly cast appearance. The sacred bronze shone brightly, and after all the patina was peeled off, the entire coffin was revealed. From the perspective of craftsmanship alone, this bronze coffin can already be called the pinnacle work in the history of metallurgy:

The whole coffin is about five meters long and three meters wide. In addition to the engraved inscriptions, there is also a huge bronze tree engraved on the coffin lid, which covers the entire coffin lid. The trunk is divided into three branches; There are three branches, nine in total; three bronze leaves are engraved on each branch, the veins on the leaves are clear and lifelike, a total of 27 leaves; on each leaf, there are three small insects in different shapes , none of the same.

Throughout the coffin cover, there is a total of one tree, three branches, nine branches, 27 leaves, and 81 insects!The inscriptions are lined every seven characters, a total of seven lines, a total of seven or fourty-nine characters!

There is a dragon head engraved on the front of the coffin, and a dragon tail painted on the back. If you look carefully, you can see that there is a wing engraved on each side of the bronze coffin. In the shape of a dragon, when the last two pieces of copper rust on the dragon's head are peeled off, a pair of huge longan eyes stand out, occupying a quarter of the entire dragon's head, which is very frightening!

The chains that originally bound the bronze coffin began to make a huge cracking sound of "Zi la la", and they were vaguely about to break. The three people in front didn't care about the changes that happened behind, because within the area of ​​the entire pool , all falling boulders, smashing the already carbonized human bones into pieces with a "crash", and black powder flying everywhere, except that the bronze coffin was not covered.

He was almost sprinting at a speed of [-] meters, and he didn't care about the sharp bones at his feet. Fortunately, Cha Wenbin was already familiar with the gossip, and the two behind him were agile scouts. The moment he ran out of the bottom of the pool, all the chains binding the bronze coffin broke.

Fortunately, except for a few small stones falling here and there occasionally, there seems to be no other danger for the time being. There was a pile of rocks of different sizes, the largest one was the size of a truck, and the smaller one was the size of a basketball.

Looking at the appalling scene behind him, Chaozi stuck out his tongue and panted, and said to Zhuo Xiong: "My dear, blind man, let me tell you what did you do just now? If it weren't for the three of us to be so agile, let's go." Brother Wen Bin led the way, even if he wasn't poked to death by a bone, he would have been smashed into meatloaf by those stones!"

Where's Zhuo Xiong?Although he is a scout, his feet are already trembling at this moment. Although he has experienced the training of the barracks, this kind of escape from the edge of death, or this sudden and strange way, also shocked him enough: "What am I doing? I might as well blame you. Damn, I bumped into me from behind. One of them didn't stand still. He helped the chain. Who knows, it would be like this. If I knew that I could drop the stone if I helped that one, I would rather Fell down one by one! Say yes, Brother Wenbin."

Zha Wenbin himself didn't know much about such weird things, but when he saw the blood on Zhuo Xiong's finger was about to drip onto the coffin, a thought suddenly burst out in his heart: run!Something is going to happen here!

He himself didn't understand why he had such an idea, why he had such a deep fear of that bronze coffin, he had seen a lot of coffins, but he had never touched this kind of bronze ancient object, this kind of thing was It only existed in the ancient times full of legends of gods and demons. God knows if the ancestors of that era would do the opposite. If it is said that the current cycle of life and death is governed by the underworld, but that is also the case of Shang Ming Zhou Xing. , After conferring the gods, there is a specific statement. It seems that the things here have far surpassed that era. God knows that the main lecture here does not talk about the current rules.

Zha Wenbin himself was already dripping with cold sweat on his forehead. If there was a ghost coming out, he could handle it at least. This kind of thing like a mechanism, a mortal body, might be hit with a stone. He died, and from the day he started to learn Taoism, he learned a rule from his master: Never tell your fortune for yourself, otherwise you will be punished by heaven!So Zha Wenbin himself doesn't know when he will encounter unexpected disasters, disasters from the sky, people who learn Taoism, apart from comprehending the Taoism and saving people in the world, are more concerned with their own destiny. Like him, he thinks about going against the sky But for those who vainly try to break the will of heaven, it is actually a Taoist taboo!

Zha Wenbin didn't have time to think about it at this moment, Lao Wang and the others didn't know what happened just now.He remembered that the position where Leng Yiran was waving the white clothes was right above where they were standing at the moment, and when he looked up, there was indeed a crack in the rock: "Chaozi, you are very skilled, try to see if you can climb to the top of that", and pointed Looking at the location of that gap, "Old Wang and the others are in that rock gap."

The stone wall was 20 meters higher than the ground. Chaozi glanced at it. It was almost difficult to gain strength on the bare rock, but now he had to go up as soon as possible no matter what. "Blind man, lend me your dagger !"

Zhuo Xiong didn't dare to delay, he pulled out the military dagger he was carrying, and Chao Zi took it: "Thank you"

With a dagger in his mouth and a bundle of ropes on his shoulder, he walked towards the stone wall. The stone wall was smooth, but there were gaps, so Chaozi inserted the dagger into those small gaps. In the middle, he used his strength, relying on his excellent skills, alternately inserting knives with both hands, he managed to climb halfway up in minutes, and smiled at the two people below: "It's not a big problem!" Just as he turned his head away For a moment, because of his high position, he saw a scene in the distance, the bronze coffin. . . . . .
