Chapter 52 Bronze Box

Wen Mo took out a cold fireworks and threw them down. After a few seconds, the cold fireworks exploded and illuminated an area. It turned out that at our feet was a cliff dozens of meters high, and there was an open space below the cliff. However, there were many things placed against the cliff.

But before we could see clearly, the cold fireworks went out. We threw another one down and saw hundreds of long and large boxes stacked together layer by layer, and the top layer was about ten meters away from us. What kind of box is this? Before we could see clearly, the light disappeared again.

We didn't give up, prepared our telescope and threw down a cold firework again. The white light lit up again. I carefully observed the long and large boxes through the telescope. The boxes that have been in the past are already mottled, and the boxes are covered with green rust, which seems to be made of bronze.

What exactly are these things?

I turned to look at the others, "Can you see what it is?"

Yuanxiao shook her head, "The light time is too short, so there is no time to look closely."

Kong Xue shone down with a flashlight, but couldn't see the tops of the stacked bronze boxes, "How is it? Should we go down?"

Yuanxiao took out the rope from his backpack and said, "It's all here, and it's not safer to retreat now than to move forward."

I think so. Behind us, there are the green ancient corpse, the big snakes, and countless small snakes, which are indeed very dangerous.

We couldn't help but turn our eyes to Wen Mo, who had not spoken. When the latter saw us looking at him, he still didn't say anything, but just nodded.

We fixed the rope with a steel hook to the gap at the edge of the tomb passage, and pulled it hard and it was very strong, so we began to climb down the cliff one by one.

Wen Mo walked in the front, followed by Yuanxiao and me, Kong Xue followed at the back. At the beginning, all we could see was the cliff in front of us. Surrounded by a dark mass, we slowly slid down. Gradually, under the light of flashlight, those bronze boxes appeared at our feet.

These bronze boxes are numerous and stacked with high stacks. They are located along the mountain. Judging from what we just saw, there are at least about twenty layers of stacked.

We stepped on it carefully and tried it. Fortunately, these bronze boxes did not rot and were more reliable to lean on the mountain.

A few of us stood at the top of these bronze boxes, and there was still endless darkness in front of us. I squatted down and looked at the bronze box under my feet.

There were some very simple patterns carved on the box, which was very cool to the touch and was covered with green rust marks. I gently tapped it, and it seemed empty inside. "What do you think is this? What is it for?"

Yuanxiao also squatted down and looked, "Is it a treasure chest that contains burial objects?"

"Damn, you're full of treasures, right? You're so naturally aware of doing business!"

Yuanxiao was not angry when he heard me say this. He seemed to be watching if he could open it. He took out a mountaineering hammer and kept knocking this and that.

Kong Xue was a little panicked and slapped Yuanxiao hard, "Don't mess around, if this stack of boxes collapses, we will all fall down!"

Seeing that Kong Xue's face was already pale, Lanxiao also stopped, "Affect the order!"

Fortunately, these boxes are not arranged neatly and have a staggered height, which forms a large "stairs".

A few of us climbed down the steps carefully. Some boxes were not placed very strongly, and they swayed and swayed after stepping on them, which made us frightened several times.

Wen Mo walked in the front, and I followed closely behind. Yuanxiao and Kong Xue walked in the back. As they walked, Yuanxiao suddenly made a "huh" sound and then stopped.

I was a little curious, so I came over and looked at Lanxiao's eyes. There was something smooth on the several raised patterns on the side of the box.

Yuanxiao reached out to wipe it and wiped it, and a red spherical object appeared, "I'll go! This seems to be a gem! Hehe, I'm getting rich now, there is a ruby ​​inlaid on this box!" As he said that, Yuanxiao took out a short knife and started prying it.

Yuanxiao pried it hard, and a large area of ​​rust and dirt on the surface of the box fell down, revealing its original appearance.

When we saw it, our faces changed. Because we could see that this gem was not an ornament inlaid on the surface of the box, but this gem was actually inlaid on a ring. The raised patterns were not just patterns, but a few fingers, and the gem ring was carried on a finger.

We looked upwards with pale faces, and these fingers stretched out from the gap in the bronze box.

After seeing all this clearly, Yuanxiao and I were both shocked. Kong Xue next to me screamed, his body shook and lost its center of gravity, and his hands and feet slipped and fell down.

I quickly turned around and reached out to grab her with my right hand, but the rust on the bronze box I grabbed with my left hand oxidized very seriously. When I moved, the rust fell off, and my left hand suddenly grabbed the air, and my whole body fell down.

Fortunately, after this rush, I reached Kong Xue and I grabbed her arm. But this was actually useless, and we both fell down together.

Just as I closed my eyes and was about to fall to the ground miserably, my clothes suddenly tightened and I felt that someone had grabbed my neck. This time, my strength was so strong that the front collar tightly strangled around my neck, almost suffocating.

Fortunately, because of this, my body stopped falling, and I quickly reached out and grabbed the force point again to stabilize my body.

I looked back and saw that the person who grabbed me was Wen Mo. We pulled Kong Xue up together. At this time, Kong Xue's face looked very ugly, and beads of sweat oozing out of her forehead, and she tightly grasped her ankle.

We hurriedly rolled up her trouser legs, and saw that the white ankle was red and swollen. With a gentle touch, Kong Xue screamed in pain. It seemed that Kong Xue was very injured now, and I wonder if it hurt the bones.

I felt a little uneasy. In this situation, someone was injured and unintentionally made our situation worse. I glared at Yuanxiao fiercely, looking at Yuanxiao with annoyance on his face, and I didn't say anything.

Wen Mo used the short knife scabbard as a splint and cut off some ropes to fix Kong Xue's injured ankle.

The three of us worked together to lift Kong Xue and half-held it to the ground. At this time, Kong Xue's face seemed to be a little relieved, but she still couldn't stand. Kong Xue seemed very depressed, biting her lips tightly, and tears rolled in her eyes.

We looked back at the huge bronze boxes stacked together, and only then did we know what it was.

Those bronze boxes contain corpses, but they are actually coffins!

Although we have seen all kinds of strange and strange things since we entered the mountain this time, the feeling of leaning against a "coffin mountain" at this time still makes us shudder.

Kong Xue said nervously: "Are all the corpses in it?"

I shine the bronze coffins with a flashlight, "Maybe this is the core location of this ancient tomb, maybe this ancient tomb is a group of tombs."

Yuanxiao shook his head, "No, according to the specifications of the tomb chamber and the tomb passage outside, the real main tomb chamber should not be so simple."

We looked around and found that the space here is huge, it should be an underground cave. It is completely natural and has no trace of artificial construction. Unless the tomb builder likes the original ecology, it is impossible for this to be the main tomb chamber.

Moreover, we vaguely discovered that there were still many such bronze coffins placed in the open space ahead.

"But who are the people who die here?" I was full of questions.

Yuanxiao said: "Maybe it was the craftsmen who built the tombs, many large tombs would kill all the craftsmen to silence them after they were built."

"Stop tug!" I waved my hand, "You will kill the craftsmen one by one, then make the bronze coffins, then install them one by one, and finally play with a stacked arhat?"

"Then what do you think is going on?" Yuanxiao asked as he looked at him.

When I heard his question, I could only shake my head. Those who can answer these questions may have long since turned into dead bones.

I turned to look at Kong Xue. The pain in my body and the depression in my heart made her look very bad.

I squatted down and asked, "How is it? Can you leave?" Kong Xue shook her head, "This place is a bit weird. No matter what, let's leave here first."

"Yes," Yuanxiao patted her chest, "Kong Xue, I'll carry you! It's okay!" Yuanxiao felt guilty and was very positive.

Kong Xue looked at him hatefully, "Go away for me, I wouldn't have fallen like this if it's not you! I don't need you!"

"I'll do it!" I turned around, "We will definitely overcome the difficulties when we work together! You can hold on!"

Kong Xue looked at me, nodded, and lay on me.

The beauty was carrying this thought, which should have been a very pleasant and wonderful moment, but I really had no intention of experiencing it. Kong Xue was injured, which made us in a dilemma. Now we have to take one step at a time.

Lantern Festival carried my equipment on her back, Wen Mo opened her mouth, and I followed Kong Xue on her back and continued to move forward.

As we saw, there were still many bronze coffins in front of them, stacked together in groups of three or three, placed in scattered positions.

Each bronze coffin is about 80 cm high, stacked together in groups of three or three, almost 1.78 meters or even 2.5 meters. Therefore, we cannot cross them, but can only pass through the gaps between them.

These bronze coffins look very messy and casual, and the gaps between them are sometimes very narrow, so we can only pass sideways. I was carrying Kong Xue on my back, so it was even more difficult to go sideways.
