Chapter 417 Ghost of the King's Tomb (10)

After he calmed down, Si Xuanyi really noticed the close-in tree canopy. The light emitted by these dense branches and leaves did not maintain a uniform brightness, but somewhat flickered. The soft paper rubbed against his face like a girl's slender He pointed out that it was very comfortable, and the surroundings were horribly quiet, except for their breathing. It could indeed be described as deathly silence. In the depths of this mountain range, almost no sound could come in. Si Xuanyi listened to the slight snoring around him. On the contrary, I feel more at ease in my heart, at least this proves that he is not alone in this ghost place.

Si Xuanyi also fell asleep unknowingly. After all, he was not made of iron, and he couldn't bear such a high-intensity running all the way. He also urgently needed to rest. I dreamed that the whole blood cherry tree came alive, and started chasing them. They ran in the mountains, and the huge blood cherry tree chased after them. They were forced to have nowhere to go, and finally they were jumped from the tree. The kind of mummies that control people are captured alive and torn to pieces...

Si Xuanyi woke up suddenly, and almost fell from the tree because of his excessive movements. Fortunately, Ye Fengfa caught him in time, otherwise the consequences would be disastrous.

"Nightmare?" Ye Feng asked in a low voice.

Si Xuanyi nodded, wiped the cold sweat off his forehead, and checked the time. In fact, he had only slept for less than 15 minutes. He actually had such a dream. Now his chest was still beating wildly. He took a deep breath and asked in a low voice, "Is there any movement?"

"Yes..." Ye Feng nodded, "But it doesn't seem to be a person, I don't know what it is, and the distance is not close."

Si Xuanyi digested his words before he roughly understood what he meant: "Could it be those monsters?"

Ye Feng shook his head: "I don't know, the sound is very vague, so I can't tell, but what kind of animals can there be in this place? It might be something like those mummified corpses, but can they come up at this height?"

"Probably not, but it's definitely not a good thing to be able to haunt this kind of place." Lin Feng said, "Don't worry, it shouldn't be on this level, it may be outside the canopy, even if there is a threat, it should be to those outside Little devil."

"According to the time, they should have come up. Although climbing from the outside is a bit more dangerous, it will not waste too much time." Si Xuanyi said, "Why are there no people yet?"

"Wait, maybe I found the wrong place. You can't see the floors from the outside. Maybe you are afraid of the wrong floor, or you have climbed to the top." Ye Feng pointed upwards, "Those bastards are tired. It’s better to die, and it saves us a lot of energy.”

"Go on to sleep, I will stare." Lin Feng leaned to the side and closed his eyes to rest his mind. The difference is not big, and with his ability, he is more alert than a awake person when he is sleeping.

Ye Feng was worried that Si Xuanyi would fall down again in nightmares, so he told him to go inside, and stayed outside to block the opening by himself, so as to prevent him from having nightmares again.

Si Xuanyi finally gave up on staying awake, it is better to sleep for a while to recover his body, otherwise he might not be able to cope with the high-intensity battle if he really fights with devils, and it will become a burden or trouble for others, then The gain outweighs the loss.

It's just that he was sleepless, more tired than not sleeping, and he was woken up by Ye Feng not long after he fell asleep. Just as he was about to ask what happened, his mouth was covered. Ye Feng whispered in his ear. He said, "Don't make a sound, there is a situation."

Si Xuanyi immediately turned his gaze to the coffin platform below, and saw something outside the coffin at some point, which looked like shadows moving slightly. After all, the light here was relatively poor, and the The coffin was completely black, so I couldn't see what it was. I could only feel that there was something crawling, like worms or snakes.

Si Xuanyi was a little puzzled, this thing shouldn't pose too much threat, why is Ye Feng so nervous?Right here, he heard some sounds, like very fine friction sounds, and after a little identification, he could hear the sound of something crawling around in the tree canopy, and the distance from them was not too far, at most More than a dozen or 20 meters, and it is at a higher place, it seems that something is crawling inside.

What could it be?Japanese?It shouldn't be so quiet, right?Si Xuanyi looked at the time and found that he had only slept for 20 minutes. This sleep was indeed uneasy. He gently woke up the people around him to prevent them from making any sudden movements to startle the snake. Everyone was tired. You can't wake up without screaming, and it took a lot of effort to wake everyone up.

After figuring out the situation, everyone pricked up their ears to listen to the movement. The sound was very monotonous. After a while, the sound of tree branches breaking was added. Judging from the density of the breaking sound, it was not a big thing, as if It crawled stiffly in it, and was very flexible. Everyone wondered what it was, but they couldn't see anything because the branches were too dense.

It didn’t take long for the sound to extend down all the way and disappeared from a distance of about ten meters away from them. Just when they were wondering, something suddenly fell on the platform. The furry one turned out to be a big monkey. No one thought Such a beast came out of such a place.

"Where did it come in?" Li Siming wondered, "Is there any other way to get outside?"

"It stands to reason that it shouldn't be right." The fisherman also felt strange, this place should be completely airtight.

The monkey turned around on the ground a few times, as if it was relatively unfamiliar with this place, and looked around for a long time, a little at a loss, and finally jumped up and down to the lamp slave on the side.

Just when they were wondering, another object fell amidst a crackling sound, and what surprised them even more was that this time it was a person, a thin and tall middle-aged man, His skin was pale and his eyes were deep-set. No matter how he looked, he looked like a heavy smoker. When he landed, he made no sound. He squatted on the spot and looked around for a while, then waved at the big monkey, and the monkey jumped up and down on him. It was only then that everyone realized that the monkeys were raised by humans, and they actually used monkeys to find the way. This guy is really capable.

Is this guy another group of tomb robbers or is he with the devils?Si Xuanyi couldn't help but have doubts in his heart. He saw that this person returned to the place just now after patrolling the coffin platform, whistled to the top, and soon there was the sound of cutting branches. Sure enough, there were still people on the top, and about ten minutes later, another person came down from the top. This person slipped down from the rope. From the blunt Chinese, it could be heard that he was a little devil.

At this time, they can be sure that this thin and tall man should be the tomb robber Li Siming said, and he is the one who brought the little devil here.

"Wu Sang made the first contribution." The little ghost spoke in half-baked Chinese after seeing the huge coffin.

The thin and tall man nodded proudly: "Your Majesty, you are welcome. Without the support of the imperial army, I really wouldn't be able to get to this place. It's just that the layout of the king's tomb is too dangerous. It's completely beyond my expectation. It's amazing to be able to come here." It can also be regarded as luck, I have roughly figured out the layout of the mechanism here, and there should not be as many casualties as when I came in when I went back."

"I hope it's as you said." The little devil said, "We need to bring a large army back and move out the property here. These things are priceless, enough to support us to win this war and finally achieve the goal of **** , Wu Sang, you will become the chairman of a province, and your future is boundless."

"This place shouldn't have seen the light of day. Fortunately, I found some information by accident. In fact, I always thought it was just a small princely tomb. I never thought it would be a family tomb. And this king is still alive. They intend to dominate and coerce the emperor to order the princes to take a tomb of a king in the Eastern Zhou Dynasty as their own. That's why they have such a large scale. If we knew it earlier, we would have to bring at least 500 people here and get enough explosives A road has been opened, so there won’t be so many casualties.” The tomb robber surnamed Wu said, “It’s my fault for injuring so many imperial soldiers.”

"These are all elites from the Department of Archeology of the Imperial University. They enlisted in the army to serve the emperor." The little devil said solemnly, "As a soldier, dying in battle is an honor, and the most glorious destination for a soldier..."

Just two?Si Xuanyi and the others were puzzled, could it be that the other devils died outside?It shouldn't be possible. If it's impossible for these two people to come to such a deep place, then where did the other little devils go?At this moment, Ye Feng pointed to the distance. Si Xuanyi didn't understand what he meant, but soon he found that someone was coming from the other side of the fifth-floor platform, which was exactly the opposite direction from where they appeared , it seems that there are three people. At this moment, several devils went down from the hole just now. Judging from the situation, the little devils came in from several directions. They should be worried that they went wrong or couldn’t find them. destination, so I made some preparations.

At this time, there were already five devils on the platform, plus the tomb robber and three in the distance, there were already as many as nine. There seemed to be voices on the platform. I wonder if there are still ghosts that have not come down.

Zhu Xiaofeng signaled to Si Xuanyi if this is the time to make a surprise attack on the kid?
Si Xuanyi shook his head. It's better to be on the safe side at this time. Let's see how many enemies there are before considering the issue of action. In their plan, the devils should come up from the platform. Unexpectedly, some devils are so accurate They directly touched this platform, which really caught them by surprise. Before that, they planned to lay an ambush on the platform. If that was the case, they might be directly attacked by these devils.

If the devils entered from different directions, there should be a lot of them, otherwise they would not divide their troops so boldly. A devil will also scare the snake, and in the end he will be surrounded by the devils who have been driven from behind.

Those devils on the stage have already begun to study the huge coffin and the surrounding lamp slaves. Looking at the posture, there is indeed a bit of archaeological foundation. Maybe it is true that the little devil said that they are all students who graduated from the Department of Archeology, but these guys are chattering. They all speak Japanese, and they can't understand what's going on, but occasionally someone asks for some information like the tomb robber surnamed Wu, and they can probably understand a little bit, from which they can judge that these small Devils don't know much about this period of Warring States history, but there are only a few sentences in the official history of King Chun's life, and most things are recorded in unofficial histories, and the information in these unofficial histories is difficult to verify. And finding the tomb of King Chun this time is indeed a good opportunity to unravel many historical mysteries. These little devils are quite excited. Of course, they are more obsessed with treasures than they care about history. Satisfy your own curiosity, in essence, they are not much different from this wireless tomb robber, they are not here to protect this historical witness, but to destroy and extract the wealth here, the purpose is to use it in their war of aggression, At the same time, it is destroying China's cultural heritage, blocking China's history, and trying to turn China into an object of their enslavement and become a part of their colony.

The fisherman listened very carefully to the intelligible phrases. To be honest, he was very concerned about these things, and he was more eager to understand this period of history. Although he was neither an archaeologist nor a historian, he But he really wanted to find out the origin and life of this guy, King Jin, and what was going on in this place. He always felt that this place would never be as simple as they saw it, and there must be other secrets hidden. This may be their only chance to unlock the secret.

Those devils are not far away from them, it can be said that they are close at hand. If they do it now, they can indeed kill these devils, but they know that it is not the time yet. Once they fire, they have to jump down from here. At that time, it was very likely that he would face attacks from devils from several directions. Si Xuanyi weighed it up. He was not sure what would happen if he had to wait any longer. It was more likely that the coffin that was close at hand would be destroyed. Although it would inevitably cause irreparable damage to this place once the war started, but at this time, he could no longer be timid, which made him a little difficult to make a decision for a while. After thinking for a while, he decided to do it, but at this moment they found two The devil has already started planning for the coffin...
