72. Chapter 72 Shortcut
Wushuang told her that ancient weapons are not popular in the antique market now and will not sell for a good price, unless you get a peerless sword like Gan Jiang Moye, otherwise such a sword is not as valuable as a fragment of the blue and white porcelain in your bag.
The little girl was curious and reached out to take out the sword from the sheath. Wushuang saw this and quickly held her down. "Miss, please calm down and save some air, okay? The scabbard and the swordsman are probably traps.
!”
This time, Wushuang was really right. Meixi didn't believe in evil, so she pulled out the sword with all her strength. The sound of the sword was like a dragon's roar. It was indeed a rare sword, but she also triggered the mechanism at the same time. The two of them just felt their feet.
The ground was shaking constantly, and the whole space seemed to be distorting. The coffin began to move backwards little by little, and a hole appeared under the coffin, and there were stone steps spiraling down under the hole.
Streams of fresh air blew up from the steps. The two of them felt much refreshed, and Wushuang also regained consciousness.
"Haha, I discovered the mechanism for the exit. I'm so good! You still have to rely on me!" Mei Xi happily jumped up and down, clapped her hands and jumped up happily.
"Haha... Yes, yes, it's all thanks to our eldest lady, but eldest lady, have you ever thought about what if you had touched the mechanism of the crossbow just now? Or what would happen if it was a breaking stone, poisonous gas, mercury leakage, etc.?
"This is not Wushuang trying to scare her, he is talking about the anti-theft mechanisms that often appear in ancient tombs, and each one is enough to kill someone.
"Tch, I'm too lazy to care about you! You're going to knock me down if you don't move!" Mei Xi turned on her small flashlight and illuminated the spiraling stone steps, turned over and jumped down.
Wushuang nodded. This girl is indeed more courageous than before after this experience. It seems that given time, she will definitely become a leader in gold-touching in the North Meridian. However, the gold-touching captain is not afraid of timidity, and those who die are the brave ones.
Yes, this girl is still too inexperienced and lacks practice, but it doesn't matter, and she doesn't expect to continue to do the reverse business in the future.
He did not follow Mei Xi down in a hurry. Instead, he knelt in front of the dead body and kowtowed respectfully a few times. "Thank you, ancestor, for letting us go out. I hope you will be reincarnated as soon as possible."
"Hey, are you leaving? Wushuang, are you just trying to keep your word after seeing that you can get out? I can tell you, you are my person in life and my ghost in death!" This little girl
It's getting more and more outrageous, and now he doesn't even call him uncle anymore, he just calls him by his first name.
"Ah!!! Uncle, save me! Save me!" Suddenly, Mei Xi's cry came from below.
Wushuang stared, pulled out his dagger and jumped down. While he was running towards the bottom of the stone steps, he also took out a light stick from his backpack and threw it down. These light sticks are military-grade, very sensitive and vibrate slightly.
One click will activate the chemical elements inside, and the space below will suddenly be illuminated.
At the end of the steps is an altar. The altar is in a perfect circle. In the middle is a statue of a god. The statue is wearing silver and holding a ghost-headed sword. His hair is scattered on his forehead and there is a big braid tied behind his back. But his lower body is like a dragon's body.
, the dragon scales are shining with silver light, and it looks like they are cast from pure silver. The casting process cannot be copied even by modern craftsmen.
Mei Xi fell in front of the statue and backed away little by little. A huge thing appeared in front of her. It was about five meters long, with shiny scales and a long tongue. It roared at Mei Xi and crawled towards her. This guy was
A monitor lizard. Come to think of it, the white-blooded flower snake king must have been eaten by it.
The guy had already opened his big mouth, with foul-smelling saliva flowing out of his mouth. He saw that the sharp teeth were about to bite Mei Xi. Wushuang jumped to the ground and ran over, flying towards Mei Xi. He held Mei Xi and rolled a few somersaults.
His body slammed into the hard wall of the cave, and he grimaced in pain.
The guy missed the target, and wanted to turn back and bite again, but as soon as he exerted his strength, there was a sudden sound of iron chains. Oh, it turns out that this guy's four legs were already tied. It seems that this is the real part of the ancient tomb.
The entrance, and this giant beast is the coffin guardian guarding the ancient tomb.
Although the giant lizard was chained and couldn't bite the two of them, its body was so big that it blocked the exit. It was impossible for them to go back further.
"Where's the gun? Why don't you shoot?"
"Gun? What gun? Oh, by the way, you gave me the Browning just now, I forgot about it." Then Mei Xi remembered and took out the gun from her pocket.
The little girl didn't know how to use a gun, so she pulled the trigger without aiming. The huge impact hit her thin body against the cave wall. But this guy was so big that even a blind man could hit him.
When... the bullet created a spark and bounced away at the moment it came into contact with its huge body. Its scales have evolved over hundreds of years and have become as indestructible as steel plates.
Wushuang smacked his lips: "Holy shit, isn't it? The invincible body of King Kong? No wonder the White Blood Flower's poison was unharmed by it. I guess that little guy even bit his teeth into pieces."
"Hey, buddy, we are all descendants of the Hai family. Look, there is a seaweed ring hanging around our neck! Let us out?" Wushuang discussed with the big guy, but it was an animal and couldn't do it.
Listen to your explanation, otherwise I wouldn't have been chained for hundreds of years.
He looked at the terrain and saw that the altar was a perfect circle. Although this guy was huge, it was impossible to completely block the entire space of the altar. If one person diverted its attention, the other one might be able to escape.
He told Mei Xi, "I'll run inside in a moment. As soon as that guy turns around, you'll run out immediately. Do you hear me?"
"I don't, I want to be with you!"
"Be obedient! As long as you go out and call everyone in, there will be a way to kill it."
Mei Xi said stubbornly: "Then I'll lure it away while you go out. It's you who saves me every time. This time it's my turn to do something for you."
Without waiting for Wushuang to comment, Meixi ran towards the corner in the opposite direction. The guy fell into the trap and turned around to stare at her. "Run! Run! What are you waiting for?" Meixi shouted at Wushuang.
.
There was no way, it was rare for this girl to be fearless. Anyway, she could save her companions by rushing out. The big guy was chained and couldn't bite Mei Xi, so let her be a hero for once. Thinking of this, Wushuang got up and ran towards the entrance of the cave.
Unexpectedly, this guy twisted his huge body towards Mei Xi, but his huge tail seemed to have eyes, and it whipped over with a strong wind.
Wushuang was unprepared and was swept by the big tail on his belly. The huge force threw him out, and he rolled on the ground for more than ten meters before he stopped. This time was fatal, its strength was too great.
