Tomb Raiders Codex

Chapter 89
The three upside-down coffins above our heads looked like three black Han materials, hanging above them, as if the coffin lid would fall at any time, and the corpses inside would follow.

In addition, the tomb walls on both sides of ours have also been widened. Originally, they were close to the stone steps, but now they are separated by about ten meters. The empty space in the middle is paved with black floor tiles.We seem to have entered a stone room, but there are no other doors in the stone room.There may be one, which is an arched passage, but the passage is also hanging upside down, above the stone wall, if we want to pass, we have to jump into the air to push the door open.

Tofu asked in surprise: "Could it be that this place is really turned upside down? In fact, we are not walking on the ground, but on the top?"

I shook my head and said, "Do you think this is possible?"

Tofu said: "It seems unlikely, this is not Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry."

I said: "The coffin hanging upside down and the door hanging upside down must have been made like this on purpose to create an optical illusion for people."

Gu Wenmin said: "But, why do you want to do this?"

I couldn't help shaking my head, even in my grandfather's work notes, there was never any mention of such a thing.Is this another game?But what's the use of this situation?Why should the coffin be stapled on top of our heads?Is there a body in the coffin?At this moment, Feng Gui walked into the tomb with a candle in his hand, and said, "You should be thinking, why did the people who built the tomb arrange it upside down, right?"

Tofu nodded, and said: "Looking at you, you seem to know something. I said, Old Feng, don't play charades. Time is precious and time is priceless. Is it interesting to dawdle here?" Feng Guishou shook his head and sighed: "In the beginning, I thought the same as you." Then he looked at me and asked, "Brother Chen, if it were you, what would you do?"

I said: "The coffin on the top of my head is probably weird. I won't touch it, and after looking at it, it's not the golden princess coffin we're looking for, so I'll leave this place and move on." Nodding, he said, "But look, is there a road in this place? Going back, it's the weird scene just now. Going forward, we have no road at all."

I said, "Could it be an agency?"

Feng Guishou said: "I have searched every corner here, and there is no mechanism."

For a while, the three of us were speechless.If it is true as Feng Guishou said, there is no mechanism in this place, then the only passage is the door hanging upside down at the end of the tomb wall.Are we really going to go through that upside-down door?As if seeing through what we were thinking, Feng Guishou said: "I have been to that door. Then follow the passage behind the door until you go straight forward..." He pointed to the stone steps when he came back, and said: "So I went back to that place."

Tofu gasped and said, "Dude, are you telling a ghost story?"

Feng Gui's hands were expressionless, as if he was no longer watching a joke.

I threw the equipment bag on my body into Tofu's arms, and said, "You are here, wait, I will climb in and have a look." Tofu suddenly pulled my arm, threw the bag back to me, and handed it to me. With a wink, he said: "I'll go." We have been friends for more than ten years, and we have a good understanding between each other. I immediately understood the meaning of Tofu. He and Gu Wenmin may not be the opponent of Feng Guishou together. , stay alone, there is no guarantee that the surname Feng will not have second thoughts.

Immediately, I didn't stop them. A group of people walked to the bottom of the wall and looked up at the overhanging passage above the wall.I threw a paw onto it. This thing is specially made, it cannot be bought in the market, and it was prepared by Wei Guangtou and his team. The rope is about ten meters long, and there is a triangular hook on the top, which can be used to hook wall cracks and corpses. There are many uses.The rest of the ropes are stored in a wooden box. When in use, press the mechanism button in the wooden box, and the probing claws will fly out.

Tofu climbed up the straight tomb wall along the paw, and soon reached the stone gate, gestured to us, and then merged into the darkness.

This kid is relatively timid. Normally, he wouldn’t dare to dig around alone. Now he is also trying to catch the ducks on the shelves. For the safety of the three of us, he has to take risks.After the figure of Tofu disappeared, we waited under the wall. There was still no movement for about ten minutes. I was a little worried that something happened to him. Gu Wenmin turned his head and whispered: "Will he be there?" Lied to us?" She was referring to Feng Guishou.

I shook my head and said in a low voice: "Wait and see what happens, I have my own way." If this Feng man really dares to play tricks, even if I risk my life, I will have to kill him.

Just as he was thinking, a voice suddenly came from behind, shouting: "Old Chen, Miss Gu."

Gu Wenmin and I were both startled, isn't this the sound of tofu?Looking back, Tofu was walking up the stone steps when we came, looking very heavy.The few of us looked at each other in blank dismay, gathered together, and listened to Tofu's description of the situation inside.The situation inside is not complicated. After entering, climb up a section of the road, and then you will see a downward stone step. Walk down the stone steps with seven bends and eight turns, and you will return to the present place.

After Feng Guishou listened, he said: "So I said, it's useless. Since I was trapped here, I have used all available methods. I have more experience than you. This place is full of evil spirits." He pointed Pointing to the top of his head, he said: "Maybe it wasn't someone deliberately designed it like this, but we are really walking in the sky."

I imagined a group of people walking on the top of the tomb, hanging upside down without knowing it, and only felt a chill rising up.

Is there really such a bizarre thing in the world?
Tofu asked Gu Wenmin, "Could we have been hinted again?" Gu Wenmin just shook his head this time and said, "I don't know, I have never encountered such a thing." She sighed After taking a deep breath, the four of us looked at each other speechlessly for a while. Seeing that everyone was a little downcast, I said, "Although I am trapped here, fortunately there is nothing dangerous. I think we should rest first, and we will slowly figure out a way." Wake up, from the fight to the present, although the time is not long, I recall it as if I had experienced a great escape. I was exhausted physically and mentally. I proposed to rest, and everyone had no objection. And eat, get together to discuss, discuss for a while, but to no avail.

We discussed taking turns to take a nap for an hour before making plans. Tofu and Gu Wenmin would sleep first, and Feng Gui and I would guard first. In order to save light, we turned off the overhead and only lit a white candle in front of us.After a while, Tofu started snoring, and Feng Guishou suddenly said, "I don't know how Wei Nanjing is doing now."

At this moment, the candlelight was weak, and everyone's faces were blurry. I lowered my head and kept thinking about the matter in the tomb, hoping to find a way to escape, but Feng Guishou suddenly mentioned Wei Nanjing. "If the three of them jumped into the water at that time because of the trend of those shadow puppets, the situation must have been very bad at this moment.

I couldn't help looking at the watch on my wrist, but I didn't know that it hadn't moved because of the water.

At this moment, the candlelight on the ground suddenly flickered and turned green. The light was as big as a star bean in an instant. Feng Guishou's expression changed, and he said, "Not good, I'm out of breath..." I couldn't help but feel startled , Immediately turned on the searchlight above the head, woke up the two Tofu, and motioned them to look at the candlelight.Gu Wenmin didn't understand the reason, Tofu explained it to her, and she wondered: "Could it be that there is a problem with the air here?"

Feng Guishou had a sullen face, probably disdainful to talk to Gu Wenmin with a green face, and turned back to pull out the box containing the incense from his bag, apparently ready to see the incense.I'm not worried at the moment. Compared to being trapped in such a clueless way, the ghost that can let people know the details is not so scary. Maybe it is playing tricks, but I want to see where it is hiding.

Feng Gui lit a stick of incense, the red light flickered on and off, the cigarette was straight and curled up, it seemed that there was no problem.In normal times, the trend of this incense is indeed no problem, but at this moment, there are exactly three coffins above our heads.The cigarette suddenly got into the crack of the coffin, as if something was inhaling it.

Gu Wenmin had never seen this before, and immediately grabbed my arm tightly, a fine layer of white sweat formed on her smooth forehead, and her breathing became short of breath.
