Chapter 64: A Door
I was like a wooden person, my mind was blank, and I would just follow them forward without realizing it.
Donghuang and Glasses supported each other and guided us out of the double-helix Changming corridor; Dr. Lin used a new crutch and hugged the lunch box with the heart tightly in his arms; the mouse clamored to get some.
As for something that could recoup the cost, we had to comfort him by saying that if you open the door of the mercury labyrinth, you will see a super handsome national treasure.
He perked up as soon as he heard that, and his eyes shone, telling us to speed up. We couldn't stand his intimidating harassment, and we wanted to go out and have a good rest, so we had to use our remaining energy and hurried back.
There is a gap in the stone gate.
But the stone door is open!
"It's broken. That fake monkey brother is still alive. He should have come out!" Donghuang, who was panting after running, immediately changed his expression and became alert.
The mouse approached a nylon thread hanging from it and wondered: "This traction thread is the same as mine? Could it be that the fake monkey brother's technique was also taught by the master?"
Our nerves that finally relaxed became tense in an instant. Could it be that he was in the passage in front?
I followed them through the stone gate fearfully, turned around and looked around with my headlight - there was nothing, nothing!
"Where is the other national treasure you mentioned?"
When I heard Mouse ask this question, I was suddenly shocked. Yes! Why is the King of Chu who was sitting against the wall gone?
"Is it possible that the fake monkey brother took him away?" The weirdo ran to his original position and groped around, but no traces were left on the ground.
"Liu Yi set a fire in the passage, and the pillar at the entrance to the underground river was blocked from the outside. It is definitely impossible to go back the original way." Dr. Lin opened his mouth and complained to me.
The mouse rolled his eyes at him and said, "I still have one stick of dynamite left. At worst, I'll kill the impostor first and then shoot it on the pillar!"
Donghuang rubbed his goatee and shook his head: "Exploding it will definitely not work. It is a trivial matter to draw out the bats. The main reason is that there is an underground river above. If the pillar collapses, we will drown ourselves here!"
"
"I don't think Brother Monkey is that stupid. He may have taken the road to Guishan Han Tomb. How about we go there and have a look? Brother Mouse is here now, so it won't be a problem to open the door!" the weirdo suggested.
"Brother Dao is right. The passage space from here up is so small that it is difficult to climb by yourself. Even if Brother Monkey wants the jade garment, he must take it off first. There is no way he can go up with such a heavy body!" Dong Dong
Huang thought, and then pointed to the hole I had never been to, "The only way out now is the Guishan Han Tomb. Be careful. Let's hurry in and kill him!"
Each of us is holding a weapon tightly in our hands. This feeling makes people very uncomfortable. We are knowingly and secretly, and human beings have many more terrible scheming than traps. From this point of view, I would rather fight with
He dueled directly face to face!
The road at the entrance of the cave is full of potholes. There has not been any rest here, and the smell of earth is very strong.
We walked a block away in fear, and before we met Brother Monkey, the gate that separated the Guishan Han Tomb from the Overlord Treasure was right in front of us.
This door is as shabby as the passage, but it is covered with many strange-shaped buckles. Although it is not very clear, it must be the "door sealing device" that Dong Huang mentioned.
"No one can get out until this door is opened. Is the fake monkey still hiding here?" Glasses said warily.
I swept my headlight all the way around and found several large porcelain jars in the recesses on the wall!
It seems that the King of Chu also lived here for a period of time before he was killed by the big project!
The mouse was delighted when he saw it, and clamored to take the porcelain out in exchange for some pocket money, saying that he had suffered a lot on this trip and hadn't caught anything valuable yet.
I suddenly remembered the ornament on the skull's feet, and quickly took it out of my pocket to show them.
The weirdo only glanced at it before dropping the mouse and rushing towards it, staring blankly at the thing——
Those are a few delicate and beautiful little red flowers.
"Oh, blood jade! It seems that the identity of the skeleton is not simple, this thing is rare!" Dong Huang appraised with shining eyes.
The weirdo had a complicated expression. He kicked off one of his boots, rolled up his trousers, raised his stinky feet and stretched them out in front of us——
He actually has a similar anklet on his ankle!
A big man with a rustic air was actually wearing such a feminine accessory on his foot! And the pendant on that accessory was exactly the same as the little red flower in my hand!
His expressions were even more confused than ours, and he twitched his lips and said: "This is the dragon boat flower. I have had this thing tied to my foot since I can remember. My master doesn't know what happened..."
"Oh! Aren't you a picked-up wild child? This thing is so precious. I have never seen it a few times, but you actually hid a piece of it!" Donghuang said in surprise, "Who are you, kid?"
"
I felt that the small pendant in my hand was a little incomplete. I held it and put it in front of the weirdo's pendant to put it together——
Damn it, I actually synthesized a whole cluster of flower balls!
Donghuang's eyes almost popped out of his head: "Do you remember the beef jerky and Liu Zhu's jade pendant? Now this little red flower seems to have been verified..."
I sorted out my thoughts: the skeleton might be Liu Zhu's wife, or it might be a woman buried by Xiang Yu himself. This mysterious woman died in the Kyushu Fangding with the dragon's heart in her arms. The weirdo and her had mutual verification.
In line with the accessories, the weirdo also has a double-pupil eye like Xiang Yu.
I was suddenly a little afraid of the weirdo wearing the anklet. The clues between them were all connected in a mess. What is the relationship between him and the skeleton...
"Shh-"
Just as I was about to continue asking questions, the mouse suddenly turned around and signaled that there was some movement.
His ears have always been very sensitive. When we saw this, we quickly ended the discussion and held our breath.
Gala.
The crisp and familiar sound of jade pieces rubbing against each other sounded from the passage behind us. Could it be that Brother Monkey was just stripping off King Chu's jade clothes in the passage under Chi Kiss and was just about to arrive now?
The friction of the jade pieces approached us very, very slowly. I think even crawling does not require such slow movements!
"Let's go, you open the door." Donghuang said softly, gesturing for us to move over, leaving Dr. Lin, who had difficulty with his legs and feet, to illuminate the mouse and continue to open the door sealer.
I nodded and turned off the light. Only by exiting this door can we ensure absolute safety. If Brother Fake Monkey does something fishy again, we will have an emergency escape plan.
Fortunately, the mouse protected his hand in the cocoon. He immediately wrapped a bunch of nylon threads at intervals around the door, then put all the thread ends in his mouth, and clicked with his ten fingers like typing on a keyboard.
A few of us squatted on the ground and moved outside a little bit, but even at this speed, it was faster than the sound of the jade piece.
Finally, the source of the sound in the darkness was close in front of me. Donghuang quietly raised my head a little higher and suddenly turned on the headlight switch!
Such light that shines directly on a person's face will definitely cause the other person to be temporarily blinded for a few seconds. Dong Huang means to take advantage of this gap and let the lightning-quick weirdo stop him first!
But none of us dared to take any action. Not only was the man opposite him not blind, he didn't even blink.
He is not Brother Monkey, nor is he a stranger. That face is a hundred times more handsome than Brother Monkey with his sharp mouth and monkey cheeks. That is Liu Zhu, King of Chu!
I had to grit my teeth to suppress the urge to scream! He was wearing a shiny gold-lined jade suit, standing upright, his face expressionless and his eyes staring blankly, his pale cheeks illuminated by the light.
Under the illumination, the shocking mercury spots and purple-black lips are reflected!
Oh my God! Is he a zombie? Or not dead at all?!
Liu Zhu seemed not to be able to see us at all. He kept his arms close to his sides, still maintaining the frequency that was slower than a turtle, taking small steps forward, making a crisp sound of jade pieces hitting each other!
"Let's stand back!" Dong Huang ordered in a low voice, his tone unable to conceal the shock, "Go back to the door sealer and don't attack him!"
I was completely stunned. What on earth is he? Where is the fake monkey brother?
He ran all the way back, his glasses sweating from the anxiety, and kept urging the hurried rat: "How long will it take? If not, use explosives!"
"Explosives won't work. If you blow up the tourist attraction, everything will be exposed!" Dong Huang exhaled, "Liu Zhu is a little strange. He doesn't care about us people...what is he going to do?"
"Open the door! He's coming soon!"
As soon as I turned around, the slow-motion King Chu was less than ten meters behind. He didn't seem to be dangerous at all. He only had a strange aura and forced us to the end of the passage.
"Give me three minutes!" The sweat on the mouse's head dropped like rain, and there were a few drops of water in the folds of his face!
"He wants the heart."
Dr. Lin said, holding the lunch box and moving a few steps in the other direction. As expected, Liu Zhu slowly walked that way!
The reason why this road we are on exists, isn’t the meaning of the things in that lunch box? The heart of the dragon is his lifelong pursuit!
I'm not particularly afraid of this zombie who doesn't know whether he's alive or dead. First of all, he didn't attack us at all. Secondly, he looks really handsome. With such a face and the story we learned, I can't help but
I feel that Liu Zhu is actually a pitiful person.
Buzz——
"It's done, it's done..."
The mouse looked as if he had just taken a bath, covered in sweat. The door leading to the surface world slowly opened from the middle, blowing in the smell of dust.
The distance between Dr. Lin and Liu Zhu was only two or three steps away. He picked up his crutches, rushed back a few steps, and was the first to walk out the door.
"Everyone, go quickly!"
As soon as the glasses disappeared from the door dragging the mouse, Donghuang yelled in our direction!
Chapter completed!
