Mountain and Sea Treasures

Chapter 807 The Man in the Mirror

The tomb passage is actually not long, and when we walked about 20 meters, we came to another tomb door --- there was a deep black hole on the top of the tomb door, and it was a place where arrows were stored.

The arrow that almost killed us just now was shot from here.

The reason why we couldn't see it just now is because the tomb door is made of mirrors, and the diorama on the front reflects our road inside. From a distance, this road seems to have no end.

"Diorama?" Professor Xu's eyes widened, and he said it was impossible. Logically speaking, dioramas should not have been introduced into China during the Western Han Dynasty.

Yazai shook his head and said, "Not necessarily. There are too many secrets in Chinese history that we don't know. A crystal cup was unearthed during the Warring States Period. People at that time may not be able to study mirrors."

Professor Xu sighed and said that in his whole life, he might not be able to figure out how many things happened on this land.

I did not take part in their conversation because I was distracted by the diorama.

Not to mention the Western Han Dynasty, there are not many people who can afford such a smooth mirror, and this mirror is so big, but it is not spliced, it seems to be complete, and it is extremely rare with technology alone.

Did the Western Han Dynasty really have such a mirror at that time?

I'm a little curious, but when the mirror stands here, I have to believe that such a perfect mirror did appear in the Western Han Dynasty.

All of our faces are in this diorama, it doesn’t matter if there is Ms. Qiu, Professor Xu and Yazai’s explorations, Lao Yan and Gopher’s calm expressions... There is one more person...

who is it?

I looked at the black figure in the corner, and a chill rushed directly from the soles of my feet to the top of my head.

But I didn't dare to move, because the black shadow was right next to the gopher, and I don't know if the gopher saw it, but I couldn't remind it directly.

How to do?
We all face the mirror, if I do something this person will be able to see it.

No, this thing is not necessarily a person.

Because when I just came in from the tomb door, I watched them come in one by one. After they came in, the tomb door was closed. At that time, I was still feeling the death of the two archaeologists, so it is impossible for others to come in.

Then what exactly this 'figure' is is worth studying.

I moved my right hand slightly, knocked on the side of my body three times, then bent my index finger and middle finger, and knocked on my side twice again.

This is our secret code, I hope the gophers can see it!
After I finished, I waited slowly. If the gopher sees it, he will definitely respond in one minute. If he still doesn’t respond within one minute, it means he didn’t see it or he couldn’t respond.

As time passed by, I looked at the diorama, and Miss Qiu was still wandering, not caring that there was something that shouldn't be here.Professor Xu and Yazai were very interested in the diorama. They almost all lay on top of it. From their angle, there was no reason why they couldn't see the figure.

But their expressions didn't change at all.

Lao Yan silently looked at the gopher, his eyes should be facing the 'figure', but he didn't do anything.

The weirdest thing was the gopher's expression, he was actually laughing.

This smile is very strange, the gopher seldom makes such a formal smile, his smile is full of wisdom, like a shrewd old fox, or a mouse waiting for an opportunity in the dark, but His smile now reminds me of that perfunctory smile.

wrong!

I counted silently to 60 seconds in my heart, and then I knew that everything was wrong, everyone's state was wrong.

No one spoke for such a long time, and they didn't even move at all.

I suddenly turned around and said with a smile: "Senior, can you come and see, how should the door of this tomb be opened?"

At the same time, the gopher moved, he jumped forward, and Lao Yanhe caught him as if he had made up his mind. Where the mouse was standing, the throwing knife in his hand was thrown at the 'figure'.

Sure enough, all of them found the 'figure', but they all chose to remain calm, and my words became the point of their explosion.

"What is it?" I saw that Ms. Qiu seemed to have hit it, and hurriedly ran for two steps, and the flashlight instantly shone on the place where the 'figure' was standing.

A lone throwing knife lay on the ground with nothing.

what happened?

Through everyone's performance, I know that they should have discovered this 'figure', but why did it disappear?

I looked at Miss Qiu, and she shook her head at me, indicating that she didn't know either, meaning she just hit it right?

I walked to the place where the 'figure' was standing, and then looked up at the diorama - I looked normal in the mirror, there was no other problem except that I was a little farther away and appeared darker.

What exactly is going on?

Everyone's expressions changed, but no one spoke instantly, so I naturally remained calm, I just glanced around and focused on the way we came, but I really didn't see anything.

At that moment just now, I was sure that I didn't see anything leaving, that is to say, the 'figure' would not run away.

After about 2 minutes, I exhaled lightly: "Senior, did you feel something just now?"

The gopher took a look at me, his expression was a little pale, and he said after a while that he didn't know, but he could feel something standing behind him, and this thing wanted his life.

That's why his smile was like that just now. It was what he had agreed with Lao Yan. Once his smile was abnormal, it meant that he needed help.

It turned out to be like this...

But this code can only be known by people who are very familiar with it, because the smile just now may not look right to us, but other people will feel that it is actually a normal smile when they see it.

I nodded and understood what he meant. When I saw the 'figure' just now, I also had a very strong sense of oppression. Even if I don't know what it is, I can feel danger.

But with the cooperation of so many of us, no one can see clearly where this thing has gone?

Besides, there is really no other way to go in this passage. The 'figure' either escaped along the way we came, or went to the front, but the tomb door was blocked by a diorama...

"He's inside!" Yazai's voice was a little strange.

When we all moved just now, he and Professor Xu were still lying on the diorama. This is because they are far away, and there is no need to move rashly.

What he said made my hair stand on end. When I looked up at him, I saw him knock on the diorama, saying that he just felt the mirror vibrate, as if something had got into it.

I shook my head and told him not to talk nonsense.

Yazai laughed twice, tapped the mirror with his hand, and his low voice came into his ears: "Nonsense? Everything has spirits, maybe this mirror also has spirits?"

Both Lao Yan and Professor Xu's faces changed. Everyone knew that this statement was very absurd, but everyone felt that there seemed to be some truth in this absurdity.

I waved my hand and said that in this case, we will break open the tomb door, no matter what the 'figure' is, once the tomb door is opened, he will have nowhere to hide!
