Forbidden City

Chapter 668 The Gate of Life and Death
"Demon Soul, you said this is already the second floor?" I was a little puzzled.

The demon soul said: "This is the second floor. The stone steps you climbed just now are the way to the second floor."

I was taken aback, did we have unknowingly reached the second floor?If it wasn't for the demon soul's explanation, I really don't know.

If the people who enter don't know that this is the second floor, then they will go to the sixth floor to find Mei Lansha, then they will regard the sixth floor as the fifth floor, then they will go to the seventh floor, which is Absolutely forbidden, no one has ever reached it!
I raised my arm to check the time, it was just after nine o'clock.

I said to the three of them, "Everyone, go to the door on the left."

You Ming looked at me puzzled, and said, "Brother Lin, why is the door on the left instead of the right?"

"Didn't I tell you? I have a map." That's all I could say.

No one objected to my opinion. I pushed open the door on the left, and the stone door creaked. Inside was another tomb. The entire tomb was more than 100 square meters. In the center of the tomb was a huge statue. very horrible.

It seems that as soon as you get close to the statue, you will feel a strong pressure.

Surrounding the statue are some small kneeling statues. There are more than 30 of these statues, including men and women, old and young. It feels like Tao Yong in the Terracotta Army of Qin Shihuang.

The three followed me closely, and we were about to go around from one side to find the stone gate at the end, when the devil said, "Have you forgotten what I said? When you see a god, worship."

I was a little surprised, and asked puzzledly, "Is this a god?"

Demon Soul explained: "As long as there is an altar in front of the statue, no matter whether it is a god or a demon, or anything else, you have to worship."

I told You Hongyang and the other three to bow down. You Ming and You Xue seemed a little unhappy, but when they saw their father kneeling, they also knelt down.

Kneeling and kowtowing, we turned and left, and walked to the door on the north wall. There were still two stone gates in front of us, one was the gate of life and the other was the gate of death.

The demon soul told me that it is still on the left. Whenever the time is one o'clock, go to the left, and go to the right when it is two o'clock.

We stopped in front of the stone gate, and I saw the marks on the two stone gates, the sun on the left and the moon on the right, instead of the number symbols just now, I felt a little strange.

You Hongyang explained: "There are similar doors in other pyramids, but they are extremely rare. They usually appear above the sixth floor of other pyramids. We call them the door of life and death. If you enter the door of life, you will live, and if you enter the door of death, you will die. The door that is difficult to choose will kill many strong people. Generally, when encountering this kind of situation, they just encounter a door of life and death, and they will enter in two groups. Therefore, the two doors just now, the people of the Ninja League must be divided into two groups. A group of people went in, but I didn't expect to encounter the second gate of life and death soon."

"In this case, in order to reduce casualties, everyone will send two people in to test it out, while the others wait in place and use the tokens of the exchange of messages to confirm whether it is safe inside."

"The door of life is safe, but the door of death is full of dangers. Under normal circumstances, within a few minutes, something will happen to the door of death, and everyone will know which is the door of life and which is the door of death."

"But this situation cannot be 100% safe. Sometimes, the gate of life will become the gate of death, and the gate of death will also become the gate of life. It is basically useless for the people of the Ninja League to make this mark. If you come out When you open the two doors and see the marks, it will affect people's judgment."

It seems that the explorers here all know the existence of the door of life and death, but they don't know that the changes of the door of life and death change according to time.

We continued to walk through the door on the left, and walked through fifteen tombs without any danger. In some tombs, there were some simple metal treasures, such as long swords, daggers, and several open sarcophagi. Some gold and silver jewelry and things like that.

What surprised me was that the three of you Hongyang didn't have the slightest interest in these treasures, and the three of them must also be wondering why I didn't take these treasures.

I couldn't help asking: "Uncle, most people enter the pyramids to hunt for treasures. Why don't you take these treasures when you see them? Or, these treasures don't come into your eyes?"

You Hongyang said: "It's not that I don't want to take it, but it's not the time to take it. Ordinary explorers will not take anything inside the pyramid when they enter the pyramid. If they take it, they will go out immediately, because every All the pyramids are very weird, if you take the treasures here, you may be cursed or other things, if you are lucky, you can take the things back, but if you are unlucky, you will die in the pyramid or outside.”

"If we do our business and encounter some treasures when we go out, I will definitely take them."

It turned out to be like this, it seems that they also know that the things in the pyramid cannot be tampered with.

You Hongyang turned to me and asked, "Why didn't you take it?"

I smiled and said, "Just like you, I won't touch anything until my work is done."

Soon, we came to the No.16 tomb. I checked the time, and it was ten o'clock, so I chose the door on the right and started walking.

The three of You Hongyang were full of doubts about my sudden choice of the door on the right, but I didn't explain to them that every day we walked was safe, and we worshiped the gods along the way, and then walked on the ground like walking on the ground.

Mohun told me that above the second floor, there are 99 tombs on each floor. If you only walk through the life gate along the way, you only need to walk through half of the tombs, that is, after 490 nine tombs, you will find the last door. That door is a separate tomb, which is the passage leading to the third floor.

If you walk through the gates of death, you only need to walk through 99 gates of death to arrive directly. If you walk randomly, the possibility of getting out is very small. If you are lucky, you can get there within three or four days. If you go out, if you are unlucky, you will not be able to go out for a year or two.

And above the second floor, there is a ghost or evil spirit guarding the tomb at the entrance of each floor, and the devil spirit told me that all the monsters in the cemetery are cursed, immortal, even if they are killed to pieces, they will die No, they'll just be badly wounded, regroup and sleep, and wake up shortly thereafter.

After walking through twenty tombs, I asked everyone to rest for an hour before leaving. It was not because I was tired. I suddenly felt some changes in the ring of Mai Shen. Arguing about this, it turned out that everyone found out that I hadn't contacted them for so long, and asked Colon to go out and see what happened.

The people in the space ring have no way to know the things outside.

I stopped immediately and told the people inside what happened here. Everyone was very surprised when they knew that I had entered the second floor.

When I communicate with the people in the space ring, I use consciousness to communicate.

Visa and Stefan were very dissatisfied with me, because they said that once they entered the Emperor's Tomb, they would be released. People from the vampire family have been to the Emperor's Tomb several times, and they are familiar with some of the conditions here, but I have the help of Demon Soul, and I don't need the information provided by Stefan at all.

Now is not the time to release them. I will only release them if I encounter an enemy or a situation that I cannot handle.

Anyway, there are a lot of things stored in the space ring, enough for them to eat in it for a year. Although the three major forces said that this mission will be released within ten days, other pyramids can be released in five days and ten days, but the demon soul It is said that it is possible to be trapped in the emperor's mausoleum for decades, and even the third floor cannot be completed in ten days.

Seeing that I didn't need his help, Stefan was a little annoyed, "Your Excellency, you must know that if your judgment is wrong, it may cause our entire army to be wiped out at any time."

I said that I used my consciousness in the space ring and said: "Your Excellency, the locator given to me by Cologne, I made it out of blood symbols. As long as I walk or touch the place, the clone can be transmitted at any time, even if I die. Yes, you can also teleport it out! In short, I will take you to the sixth floor smoothly, and if you encounter a situation that you cannot cope with, come out again."

Visa was also very puzzled by my actions, "Your Excellency, I have wasted a lot of effort to get the maps from the Egyptian government and the Chinese government. You don't even use the maps now? Have you ever been here? No?"

I said: "Your Excellency Visa, I have read the map a long time ago. In short, many things on the map are useful, but these things may also mislead us. In short, you have to trust me."

I don't need to explain anything, there is no clone transfer, they can't get out of it at all.

Seeing that my attitude is so firm, they can only compromise.

After resting for half an hour, we started to walk to the door on the left, and after going through five tombs, we met five members of the Ninja League in a tomb of No.30.

Of the five people, one of them was wounded. The five of them were standing in front of the Gate of Life and Death, arguing about something. I don’t understand the language of the Sun Kingdom at all. The middle-aged ninja in the head was very angry and kept yelling at several ninjas. Eight ga, eight ga'.

After the three of us came in, the five stopped arguing and surrounded us.

You Hongyang began to communicate with the leading ninja, and soon, the five ninjas had a murderous aura, and then surrounded the three of us.

Mohun translated the conversation between the two parties for me. The ninja asked one of the four of us to test the door of life and death. You Hongyang refused, and the ninja said that if we didn't do what they asked, he would kill us.

The three of You Hongyang held their weapons tightly and were ready to fight. I think it was a waste of time.

I was about to make a move, but the demon spirit stopped me, "Don't kill people, any killing is prohibited in the gate of life in the pyramid, and you can't do it with your hands. If you kill someone, you have to pay with your life. Don't move your hands."

The door of life can't kill people, but the door of death can?Can't even do it?What kind of broken rules is this?

I looked at the time, and now the left side is the door of life, I signaled everyone not to be impulsive, and then asked You Hongyang to explain to them, I am willing to test, and I am alone, if nothing happens, I will come back, if something happens Alright, you go through another door.

After You Ming explained, the leading ninja nodded in satisfaction, and said a few words to me.

The Demon Soul didn't translate it for me, obviously it didn't matter what they said.

I really want to lead them to death, but think about it or forget it, safety first.

I walked into the life gate on the left, which was still a tomb, and came out after wandering around for a few minutes, and then everyone entered the life gate together.

We walked forward along the tomb, and a few minutes later, there was another door. I continued to test and led everyone through safely.
