Chapter 281 Rebellion(1/2)

Cheng Xuelin and I went out for a walk, but when they came back, their attitude changed drastically. It was normal for Liang Ruidong to feel strange.

Anyway, Cheng Xuelin didn't see me using karma fire, so it doesn't matter how he answered.

As a result, before he walked far, he heard Liang Ruidong calling me from behind. He hurriedly caught up with him, not knowing where there was a mechanism.

"Stop!" I walked back for a while and saw that he was about to step on the rolling mechanism, so I hurriedly stopped him.

Liang Ruidong is good at having good control and has strong control. As soon as he lifted one foot, I stopped immediately after I sniffed it. He did not lose his balance because of this, and stood firmly in place.

"Walk half a meter forward, walk half a meter and half a meter."

"oh."

Liang Ruidong obediently did it and walked to me with a big stride. The labyrinth passage was limited by the space in the pyramid, and each one was not long, but one part of a mechanism, without a duplication, which made people defend themselves.

Cheng Xuelin and I were lucky. He accidentally stepped on two mechanisms, one was a knife pit and the other was a spear drop, both of which were relatively "gentle" mechanisms.

But if you step on falling rocks and quicksand, it will be difficult. In more serious cases, some flip boards emit a faint sour smell, and most of them contain substances such as strong acids.

Some people stepped on it and didn't get in the calf. There were sharp blades underneath. They brushed it, and in an instant, half of the leg could not be taken.

There are generally no such mechanisms in the ancient Nile Kingdom, so I guess that the pyramid was built first, and the mechanism in the passage might be designed by Nanduo. Her job is to dig tombs, which is equivalent to the "archaeological personnel" of our tribe. There have been many traps in mechanisms that have been seen.

The interior space of this pyramid is small and has many independent small spaces arranged, making it relatively easy to design and manufacture the mechanism.

The pyramid has vents, so we don’t have to worry about air problems. Liang Ruidong followed me to the entrance of the passage leading to the lower tomb layer. On the way, he insisted that I demonstrate to him where there is a mechanism.

I casually stepped on a brick on the ground. At the position where he was standing, a spear shot out from bottom to top. He quickly dodged and avoided it, and the spear pierced straight into the ceiling.

Liang Ruidong looked at the quality spear that was immersed in the ceiling, and his face became a little bad.

If this spear hits, he will know how he feels the mutton skewers.

"Do you still see?" I asked, touching a brick on the wall next to me.

"I won't watch it anymore." Liang Ruidong squeezed out a trace of stiff smile.

"Look at a few more times, you can't come in vain, maybe you'll be surprised." I changed my hand and pressed the bricks on the other wall.

"No, no, no, don't tease me anymore, you really don't have to watch it." Liang Ruidong quickly reached out to stop me.

"Oh." I withdrew my hand and turned around and continued to move forward.

Until I walked into the caucus, I didn't talk to Liang Ruidong anymore. He spoke several times, but I didn't answer.

He obviously came to test my strength, but unfortunately I had no obligation to cooperate with him. I was not from a circus. If he wanted to watch me perform, I had to act.

Liang Ruidong felt my coldness and no longer spoke up and made it boring.

The stone door of the caucus room was closed tightly. I stood at the door and pushed it, but it didn't open it.

"Is anyone?" I patted the stone gate and shouted inside.

"Li, wake, we should have come to the wrong place. Professor Chen and the others are not in this tomb. We understand your mood, but we cannot act emotionally when we go on a mission."

"If you're not going out any more, you'll be fine." I glanced at Liang Ruidong. I was not looking at a living person or jokingly.

They may not help or even isolate me, but I will never allow them to interfere in my actions and make trouble for me.

At this moment, a faint knock suddenly came from the door, like the sound of metal hitting the stone slab.

Liang Ruidong didn't know whether it was because of my eyes or because of the sudden sound from inside, his eyes shrank significantly and he took a step back.

I tried to push the door again, and this time I used all my strength to push the things blocking the door open together.

When the stone door opened a crack that could allow a person to pass through, I stopped and raised the flashlight and shone it in.

The space inside was not too big. Several people were lying tilted around the wall. One of them was holding a crowbar in his hand. It felt like he was trying to raise his arms, but he still closed his eyes, tried to raise his arms and hit the ground with a crowbar.

The one blocking the stone door was a sarcophagus. Fortunately, the sarcophagus was thin and the surface was rough, so it should be a burial coffin.

The people inside use this coffin to block the door, so they must be guarding against things outside. If it is a scorpion, there is no need to block the door. Just close the door, and they will not push it.

"Come in." I took the lead in getting into the crack in the door, then waved to Liang Ruidong.

Liang Ruidong also saw someone inside wearing a pseudo-game customer's foreign server like us. His expression flashed across his face with disbelief, and then he flashed into the door.

I closed the door again and reset the sarcophagus that blocked the door. It has been nearly ten days since Chen Qinghan and the others lost contact to today. The food and water they brought were only enough for a week.

If you save some food, it will be no problem to persevere until we come, but there is a prerequisite that all these foods must be preserved without a single portion of them being lost.

Liang Ruidong took advantage of me to push the sarcophagus and walked to the people beside the wall to check their pulses and pupils.

"No trauma, just dehydration." He took off his backpack and fed them the water with vitamins and the like.

"You are here to accompany them, I'll go out." I blocked the door and walked to the unconscious person. Chen Qinghan was not among them, so I had to go out and look for it again.

"Go out to find Professor Chen?"

"Yeah." I said, taking off my backpack and taking out my food and drink. "Don't make any noise outside the door if there is any movement or opening the door."

"Do you suspect the tomb owner is still here?"

“It’s possible.”

"Do we want to inform Lilith and the others?"

"They won't have any trouble if they don't leave the entrance of that cave."

"But when they dig through the tunnel, they will definitely send someone to notify us."

"They can't dig it all, and this tomb... won't let people go out so easily."

"What does this mean?"

"It means this tomb is very dangerous."

Liang Ruidong suddenly stood up when he heard this and said anxiously: "Tell me clearly."

I took my backpack and felt that my social disorder had not healed myself. At this moment, I really didn't want to pay attention to Liang Ruidong.

"I won't!" Two words were left, and I squeezed sideways out from a narrow crack in the door that I just reserved.

Liang Ruidong lost his voice for a moment, probably because he hadn't thought about how to answer my words.

The last wave of missing colleagues lived in the burial tomb room on the bottom floor, but there were no burial objects in the tomb room. There should be another special place to store burial objects.

I raised my hands halfway in front of me, ready to face any threat that rushes out at any time.

The tomb chamber on the ground was the most refined, and it can be seen that there was still enough time to repair the tomb at that time, and the middle and upper floors were basically empty. Later, the partition was made in a simple way to create a multi-layer maze style.

In theory, the pyramids are the tombs of the pharaohs, and the young man is just a small aristocrat in the small place and should not have such a high tomb specification. To be more precise, it is an outrage.

Perhaps they knew it in their hearts, so they built the tomb in the belly of the mountain and hid the real tomb.

People who dare to do this are afraid of being accidentally ambitions. After all, dreams are not afraid of big things, what if they come true.

I left the burial tomb room, and there was a passage next to it, and it was deep and endless.

The walls on both sides of this passage are painted with exquisite murals, with vivid characters and can be understood without understanding the ancient Nile language.

Many emperors hope to ascend to heaven after death and become a flying immortal, but the tomb owner hopes to be king in the underworld after death. Therefore, the decoration of the high places in the tomb is just average, but the bottom channel is built exquisitely and beautifully.

Because this is the road to the Netherworld, there are stone figures on both sides of the passage, only half a person is high, both men and women. They face forward and line up in line to look down.

I suddenly remembered the deep well under the wooden house. There seemed to be murals on the wall of the well, which painted many hideous and terrifying images.

Could it be that it is the exclusive passage for the tomb owner, and this is the employee passage for his slaves to walk on?

After walking about fifty meters, the passage ended, and further forward was the deep well.

I didn't see any other tombs on the way, so I guessed wrongly before that the burial room was not in the passage, or... it didn't exist at all.

I can't think of any reason Chen Qinghan has to leave his team members. No, it should be said that he and the goddess of Sakura Kingdom, what reason do they have to leave together?

So we can only think about the disadvantages, for example, they were captured by the tomb owner and his wife.

Since the tomb owner’s small goal is to become the king of the underworld and draw on the well wall, does that mean that he thinks the underworld is just below the well?

I thought about it, put on the gecko claws again, and climbed down the well wall.

The Scorpion Legion was gone, and at this moment, the sound of me climbing the wall was quiet in the deep well.

After climbing for more than ten minutes, I secretly sighed, no wonder the tomb owner thought it was a road to the underworld. After crawling down for more than ten minutes, black strange flowers began to appear on the well wall. The shape of the flower crown was like a skeleton and the color was like ink. If you don’t look closely, it was like human skulls embedded in the well wall.

Skull flower, red light scorpion, this place is really gloomy and terrifying.

I try to avoid these weird skeleton flowers, but fortunately they grow in piles rather than in pieces, so it is not difficult to get around them.

Any strange creature always has its own characteristics, so it is better not to be provoked easily.

After climbing down for more than ten minutes, the deep well finally came to the bottom, but this should not be the real bottom.

Because there is a hole in the middle of the circular open space, and there is a stone platform around the hole, like a base, I took out a No. 2 battery from my backpack and threw it down from the hole.

There is no sound of landing or water flowing, so the hole below should be very deep.

There are also murals and scenes of sacrifice around the open space. The priests presided over the ceremony. Some soldiers held slaves, tied their hands and threw them into the cave alive.

I don't understand it very much. If the nobles believe that this is the gate to the underworld, then they should send the dead in. What is the operation of throwing the living? Will they force them into the underworld before their lifespan are over?

What is the benefit of doing this without reason?

Unfortunately, the content of the murals can be explained is limited, there is no summary to read, and there is no review of the past, so I can only understand that they need to throw living people into the hole to achieve some purpose.
To be continued...
