Chapter 59: Ancient Tomb Adventure

Because they were buried deep in the ground all year round, the ancient tomb was dirty and damp, and the stone steps were covered with moss and very slippery. They had to be careful with every step they took, otherwise they would just roll down the stone steps.

I don't know how long it took before they went down the stone ladder with difficulty.There is a tunnel immediately below the stone ladder.

On the walls on both sides are engraved with Qilin, Baize, Taotie and other ancient mythical beasts.

I don't know why, these reliefs look very hideous, which makes people frightened.

At regular intervals, there is a candlestick on the wall.There is a red candle on each candlestick.

From the appearance, these candlesticks are full of rust, and they should not have been used for hundreds of years, giving people a sense of historical heaviness.

In the distance, there was a faint rustling sound, like a low growl, like anger, like a ghost crying.

These voices seem to come from the inner roars of these ancient beasts on the wall, vowing to tear apart all uninvited guests who disturb their peace.

Li Sui held his breath, his scalp began to tingle, his face turned pale, his back was covered in cold sweat, and his legs trembled unconsciously due to the fright.

And Jin Shihou was not much better, he tightly pinched the corner of Han Junxiu's clothes, because his body was curled up, his chin had already stuck to his neck, his eyes stared at the carvings on the wall, and he remained motionless.

"You...you...did...didn't you hear anything just now?" Jin Shihou's words were full of fear.

On the other hand, Han Junxiu's expression didn't fluctuate much. It seems that the courage of the man on the battlefield is still far beyond that of Li Sui and other young masters.

"It should be the sound made by something blown by the wind. You see so many candlesticks on the wall, maybe one of the candlesticks is loose, and it will make a sound when the wind blows."

Han Junxiu touched the mural on the wall while talking.

After listening to Han Junxiu's words, Li Sui and Jin Shihou finally felt relieved.

"Here, let's light up the candles on both sides. This tunnel is too empty, and the light in our hands alone is not enough to illuminate it."

With that said, Han Junxiu took out three fire pockets from his pocket and gave one to Li Sui and Jin Shihou.

So the three of them moved forward while lighting the candles.

"Ms. Han, do you still have the fire folder?" At this time, the paper scroll in the fire folder in Jin Shihou's hand had been burned, so he planned to ask Han Junxiu for another one.

"No more." Han Junxiu touched his pocket and said.

In fact, originally, a fire pocket can be used for at least four hours, but the fire pocket that Han Junxiu gave Jin Shihou had used up half of it before.

And Han Junxiu did not check in detail before leaving, which caused the current situation.

Hearing what Han Junxiu said, Jin Shihou had no choice but to give up. At this moment, he saw the candle on the candlestick, and he had a plan to take it down and light another candle.

But the moment Jin Shihou took off the candle, something unexpected happened.

The ceiling above the head actually shook violently, and the dust attached to the surface of the stone was also falling down continuously.

Immediately afterwards, the sound of gears turning came from inside the wall.

"What happened?" Jin Shihou asked cautiously.

"We seem to have touched some mechanism just now." Li Sui replied uncertainly.

The three of them were startled by this sudden situation, and they all stood in place, looking panicked for a moment.

After about half a cup of tea, countless dark holes jumped out of the wall, and flying arrows rained down on the three of them.

Suddenly, an arrow shot straight at the back of Jin Shihou's head, but he only cared about dodging the cold arrow in front of him, and didn't realize the danger behind him.

"Be careful." Seeing this, Li Sui threw Jin Shihou down from behind.The candle in Jin Shihou's hand also flew to the side.

The arrow crossbow didn't intend to stop because Li Sui and Jin Shihou fell to the ground, but it became more and more violent.

Seeing another arrow flying towards him, Li Sui had no choice but to force Jin Shihou to roll left and right on the ground.

The flying arrows are extremely sharp, once they are shot, the consequences will be disastrous.

Han Junxiu on the side was also trying his best to avoid these murderous weapons by swinging his body. Although he was physically strong, it was still a bit difficult to avoid so many arrows at the same time.

The arrow didn't stop at all, gradually, the physical strength of the three began to run out.

At this critical moment, Li Sui saw the red candle at Jin Shihou's feet, and seemed to realize something, "Brother, hurry up, put the candle at your feet back on the candlestick."

After hearing Li Sui's words, Jin Shihou looked for an opportunity to pick up the candle, but there were too many flying arrows, and he couldn't lean over to approach it.

At this time, the ceiling above the head seemed to be shaking more violently, and fine gravel continued to fall from the top of the head.

"What should I do? I can't get close at all, the arrows are too dense." Jin Shihou asked Li Sui for help.

"Kick it over, I'll pick it up." Han Junxiu said suddenly.

"Are you crazy? So many arrows..."

"Stop talking nonsense, hurry up..." Han Junxiu yelled at Jin Shihou.

Jin Shihou was taken aback for a moment, it was the first time he saw Han Junxiu have such a big reaction.But right now there is only one attempt.

I saw Jin Shihou spotted a gap, approached in a diagonal line, stepped forward with his left foot to the side of the candle, swung his right thigh slightly backwards, and lifted his calf fiercely, gathering all the strength of his whole body into the tension. On top of the tight right foot...

After Jin Shihou's right foot touched the candle, the candle immediately threw a perfect curve in the air.

At this time, Han Junxiu's legs were bent, his upper body was leaning forward, his arms were swinging back and forth, his eyes were fixed on the curve in the air, and when it reached the highest point, he jumped up, hoping to hit it with one blow.

As for choosing the highest point, it is because there are no crossbow arrows in the sky. Once it falls, the flying arrows around are very likely to change the trajectory of the candle.

Seeing that the time had come, Han Junxiu took a deep breath, kicked his feet on the ground quickly and vigorously, and at the same time bent his arms slightly from back to front and up, and soared into the air.

I saw him firmly grasping the candle in the air and falling down.

But something unexpected happened while Han Junxiu was falling, and an arrow shot straight into his back.

"Ah..." Seeing this situation, both Li Sui and Jin Shihou couldn't help screaming.

At this time, another arrow shot straight at Han Junxiu's eyebrows again, that arrow glowed coldly in the darkness, its speed was so fast that it looked like thunder, which made people tremble with fear.
