Chapter 19 Shadow

Heizi looked at the wall and said slowly: "It's not that the stone wall is moving, it's that there's something wrong with the ground beneath our feet."

"Damn, this ground is incredible. We are in dire straits now." Lin Nantian cursed and asked, "What should we do now?"

Heizi looked at the stone wall in front of him, raised his head and looked around.

Suddenly he saw some hooks above his head, which seemed to be made of copper. He looked at the stone wall and said, "Young Master, if we want to get over safely, we have to climb on top of this rock."

The rock is steep, but there are some places to stay.

Lin Nantian looked at it, nodded, and followed Heizi to the rock without saying a word.

At this time, he looked down and saw the floor under his feet, slowly moving forward like running water.

In the distance, you can clearly see a rolling thing. If you look closely, it turns out that there is a cylindrical thing rolling underneath.

It seems that the cylindrical thing is rolling and moving the floor on the ground. Obviously there are pulleys under the ground.

The floor was just moving, and Lin Nantian and Heizi wouldn't be able to feel it if they didn't pay much attention.

Lin Nantian looked at it, somewhat curious, and said in surprise: "What is this?"

"This is not a thing, it is a mechanism." Heizi shook his head, "It is a rolling mechanism. As long as the mechanism is turned on, it will keep rotating."

Lin Nantian may not believe it, because in ancient times it was rare to see a mechanism that had this kind of technology and had to keep turning on its own.

Before Heizi could speak, he continued: "This kind of mechanism is incredible. I have never seen any tomb with such a mechanism."

Lin Nantian looked confused and wondered: "What kind of agency is this? By the way, are you so sure this is an agency?"

"Look at that." Heizi smiled instead and pointed at the top of the stone wall.

He said: "This is their escape hook."

Lin Nantian looked over and saw copper hooks hanging above the secret passage.

Lin Nantian couldn't help but understand something and said: "I have heard that some tomb builders will trap the tomb builders inside before they die after they complete the tomb. Is this the case? So these copper hooks

Is it used by the tomb builders to escape?"

"That's right." Heizi nodded.

"But, what is the use of the rolling mechanism in this place?" Lin Nantian said in confusion.

"Of course this thing can kill people, otherwise, they wouldn't have the need to design a rolling mechanism like this." Heizi looked at the front and said.

"But, they designed this mechanism, but also installed a copper hook on the top of this secret passage. What is the purpose of this? Is it used to escape? Those people are not that stupid, right? What should I do if they are discovered?" Lin Nantian

It doesn't seem very reasonable.

Heizi looked at it slowly and said, "This copper hook should be installed at the back."

"Is it installed at the back? Was this rolling mechanism installed after it was repaired?"

"right."

"So, those tomb builders installed this kind of mechanism by themselves, but they didn't expect that at this time, the tomb owner didn't let them go and trapped them on this rolling mechanism. They thought that the tomb owner would

Kill them on the mechanism they installed themselves! So in order to escape for their lives, the owner of the tomb guard killed them and installed those copper hooks on the top?"

Lin Nantian thought and seemed to understand.

"clang."

At this time, a slight sound of something colliding with something suddenly came from the mechanism on the ground, which sounded very strange.

Lin Nantian and Heizi's hearts tightened at the same time, and they couldn't help but lower their heads to see what was going on.

Lin Nantian only saw the faint light of the fire, and could see a black shadow appearing on the ground.

"What is that?" Lin Nantian looked at it, shouted hurriedly, and pointed forward.

Heizi used his flashlight to shine there, and Lin Nantian saw that the black shadow was actually a pit, but he didn't expect that there would be a pit on the ground.

Looking from a distance, there are some floors above the pit that have not fallen into the pit. These floors are very thin, and the color above them is exactly the same as the ground.

Heizi shined his flashlight downwards, and at first he could only see the ground rolling.

Now for some reason, there was a sound, and a pit appeared on the ground. When I looked at it with the flashlight, I could see that it was dark and dark inside, and nothing could be seen.

Lin Nantian shook his head and said, "Damn, I can't see clearly."

"You can directly see the pit below from there. Young Master, if we go a little further ahead, we should be able to see it." Heizi pointed to the wall in front of him.

Lin Nantian nodded.

Lin Nantian climbed up the wall to the place where the wall corresponded to the pit, and used the torch in his hand to shine there. Under the firelight, he could see a lot of bones piled up inside.

"It looks like some people died down there." Lin Nantian was very surprised and asked Heizi in confusion: "How could this happen?"

Kuroko's flashlight was moving and he said: "This is the answer to why I asked us to climb up this wall."

He turned to look at Lin Nantian and said, "This is the purpose of the agency."

Lin Nantian nodded and sighed: "Fortunately, we climbed up the wall, otherwise we would have suffered serious consequences."

"Huh?" Heizi suddenly said "Huh" softly, as if he had discovered something unexpected.

Lin Nantian became nervous, looked around with a torch, and said blankly: "It's nothing!"

Lin Nantian turned around to ask Heizi. At this moment, Lin Nantian saw the dark green light reflected in Heizi's eyes. When he looked closely, he realized that Heizi's eyes were staring directly above his head, and he felt like he was breaking out in a cold sweat.

Already.

Lin Nantian was sweating coldly. He gritted his teeth and was about to raise his head to look. Suddenly Heizi moved his fingers slightly and realized that Lin Nantian should not move.

Lin Nantian immediately lay down on the stone wall, not even daring to get angry.

He knew that the things above must be a bit scary, otherwise why would Heizi's expression be so strange.

Lin Nantian was lying on his back with cold sweat streaming down his face. At this moment, he saw Heizi carefully and quickly pulling out a hand-sized stone from the stone wall and throwing it against the opposite stone wall.

Immediately, they heard a voice barking above their heads and saw a dark shadow flash, and a long cat-like thing appeared in front of Lin Nantian and Heizi.

The thing was running to grab the stone. It was moving very fast. It was hard to see how the thing was moving. It grabbed the stone with a pair of claws.

The stone had fallen to the ground at this time, and it also fell to the ground. The ground was moving slowly. When the thing saw that it was a stone, it couldn't help but let go of its grip.

Lin Nantian and Heizi thought that this guy would let go of the stone and climb up to settle the score with them, but they didn't expect that the thing would just stare blankly at the stone wall without making any move.

Lin Nantian looked at it, cursed secretly, and smiled softly: "This guy seems to be going down for the first time, and he must be frightened by the retreating wall now."
