Chapter 43 The Great Escape
The four of us were able to deal with the seven or eight Hades Rats, but the fat man accidentally scratched his inner thigh, which scared him so much that his face turned green.
"Everyone, lower your weight and stand back-to-back! Once any Hades come over, greet their heads and don't let them climb on you." Seeing the three of us in a hurry, Wang Yuanchao shouted loudly.
.
He killed two Hades in a row, which made us feel a little relieved.
In fact, after knowing the characteristics of these Hades Rats and Wang Yuanchao's command, although we were a little scared when dealing with them, we still had a close call.
After a siege, Wang Yuanchao put the paratrooper knife into the head of the last living Hades Rat.
The fourth girl's side finished faster than us. There were at least more than twenty dead rats around him. This kind of performance is completely incomparable to ours.
The fourth girl herself gently put the two iron rulers back into her pocket and stood motionless like a sculpture, not knowing what she was thinking.
Without these annoying rats, we can finally walk out of the mud with peace of mind.
"Why?"
When we passed by the fourth girl, he suddenly opened his eyes and grabbed my arm.
His expression was very confused, as if he didn't quite understand what we had just done.
We all asked this question inexplicably. Before I could answer, the fourth girl said, "I owe you a favor."
"You don't owe us anything. We worked together to eliminate these rats." I looked at the fourth girl and said seriously.
I don’t know why, but I feel that the fourth girl is like a child at this moment, very innocent, very childish, and full of gratitude for our help.
But I won't ask for credit, because if I ask for credit at this time, I will feel dirty.
In fact, if you think about it carefully, if the fourth girl hadn't killed most of the Hades rats on her own, we wouldn't be alive until now.
"Let's go ashore first. Fatty's legs have been soaked in water and are almost frozen."
The fat man trembled and said, "We have been in the mud and sand for nearly an hour, and now the temperature on the surface of our bodies is dropping sharply."
After a few minutes, we finally rolled out of the mud and sand.
When I walked ashore, all the strength in my body was exhausted. I didn't even bother to look at my surroundings and just fell to the ground.
My head was dark and it felt as if I hadn't slept for two days and two nights in a row.
This section of the road from the Bronze Gate to the muddy ground is really thrilling.
The existence of these Hades Rats is almost turning this place into a dead end! If it weren't for Fourth Girl, a master of tomb robberies, we would not be able to deal with these things with just a few of us little fish and shrimps.
"Everything in Li Si's tomb can kill people. He doesn't know where he got these ghost rats. They have been keeping them in this mud and sand. This lineup is a fully armed tomb robber team.
Even if you come in, your entire army will be wiped out..."
Chen Tuozi coughed a few times and said with an ugly face.
I was a little numb at the moment. Originally, according to Chen Tuozi, after arriving at the main tomb, there should be no more traps. But now it seems that it is obviously wrong, and how wrong it is!
The bronze door outside had given us a serious warning, and the result was exactly what it said on the door. As soon as we stepped into this place, we encountered the terrifying Hades Rat.
"This is the first time I have encountered such a tomb with murderous intent at every step. These mechanisms are rare even in the tombs of emperors!
Chen Tuozi sighed.
"I said, Lao Chen, can you hold on? Why don't you lie down and sleep for a while? You look very bad." I looked at Chen Tuozi and said.
In fact, Chen Tuozi was seriously injured, and the wound was infected, so it was very difficult for him to survive until now.
"I can't die yet. I'm afraid I won't be able to get up again after I fall asleep."
Chen Tuozi coughed violently as he spoke, and the skin on his face turned blue.
I nodded. We can't find any medicine at the moment and there's nothing else we can do.
"There is a huge secret hidden in this tomb within a tomb! This is a secret that could implicate the nine clans if spread. That's why he worked so hard to create so many mechanisms. He even did not hesitate to kill everyone involved.
The craftsmen who built the tomb, the soldiers, and even his wife who has been with him for decades..."
The fourth girl suddenly spoke, as if he had already studied this place before, and what he said was to the point.
"What secret is he trying to hide?"
I said to myself, in fact, I had already figured out what secret Li Si wanted to hide from the scattered clues in the tomb. But as one mechanism after another appeared, I suddenly became afraid of this secret!
What kind of secret could make Li Si so cautious that he would even bury his wife in a hanging coffin and tell her to shut up forever?
"I suspect that Li Si's family confiscation and genocide was also planned by him. According to historical records, Li Si was ordered to be executed by the second emperor of Qin, and the nine clans were implicated. At that time, Qin Shi Huang died of illness, and Li Si colluded with Zhao Gao to modify the edict.
He established Qin II as emperor. Judging from the fact that Li Si swept away the heroes at the end of the Warring States Period and allowed Qin to gradually assume the position of hegemon, he was definitely a wise man through the ages. Didn't he know that sooner or later, his actions would be killed by Qin II, cunning rabbit
Cook the dead lackey?"
"Unless there is a possibility, that is, he did this on purpose! Then he used his own death to cover up people's eyes and came here. But he seemed not to be relieved, so he designed such a tomb within a tomb during his lifetime to keep the secret tightly
Protected."
Chen Tuozi said thoughtfully.
If he hadn't actually visited Li Si's tomb, I'm afraid Chen Tuozi wouldn't have dared to make such a guess that goes against history.
"Don't make a sound!"
Wang Yuanchao's expression suddenly changed.
We absolutely recognized Wang Yuanchao's vigilance along the way. As soon as he spoke, our discussion immediately stopped.
I found that the floor under my butt made a small crackling sound, and slowly cracked with several fine lines.
A sudden thought occurred in my mind, this damn thing is not going to be affected by an earthquake, right?
The floor around us also began to crack with tiny cracks.
The fat man used his paratrooper knife to press against a gap, and then pried it open. Unexpectedly, all the stones in the stone slab were gnawed away, and he actually pried up a large piece of the stone slab without any effort.
The moment the stone slab was opened, a dozen pairs of red eyes stared at us.
"This is a fucking rat's nest! Run!"
My whole body was filled with fear, I bounced up as if I had been electrocuted, and then I ran madly into the passage. Chen Tuozi and the others were not slow in their skills, especially the fat man's fat body.
I.
Some of the floors burst open after we stepped on them, and countless Hades jumped into the air from below. After landing, they started to bite us.
The scene was like a school of fish jumping out of the water crazily when the pond was being pumped, except now, the fish were replaced by mice!
I looked back and saw countless pairs of red eyes in the darkness chasing us behind us. The sight of the overwhelming rats almost made the hairs on my body stand up.
Fortunately, there was only a winding path at our feet, and there were no side roads or anything like that. We ran all the way without having to think about anything.
"There is a door ahead, let's go in quickly." Wang Yuanchao shouted loudly.
"etc!"
Chapter completed!
