Chapter 341 One more person

Except for the jubilant cheers of the fat man and the footsteps of the four people, the entire tomb was basically silent. The dusty insect nests and the slender passages that only insects could use were like decorations full of contradictions, silent.

Lying on the ground lifeless.

Even the most timid Xu Er, when he casually passed by those insect nests at this time, would hit it with an engineer shovel and smash the waxy insect nest to pieces, in order to vent his dissatisfaction at being bullied by those cockroaches just now.

.

Hu Bayi took out his compass, muttered something, and soon determined the location of the southeast corner. Ever since he had Xu Er, lighting candles seemed to have become his exclusive job. He was also happy to use this method to prove that he was the same.

An important part of the team.

Xu Er took out the candle from his backpack and walked to the direction pointed by Hu Bayi. He also deliberately placed the candle at the foot of a pillar so that it would not be blown by the wind or hit by the soil.

Xiao Ran and others had already walked to the coffins at this time. The fat man circled the three coffins a few times and couldn't help but sigh: "Hey, dear, it was all in the dark just now. I thought they were just three coffins with two ends turned up. I didn't expect this.

The thing looks like the moon... No, it looks like a dumpling..."

Hu Bayi raised the engineering shovel and touched the coffin in the middle. He also wondered: "It doesn't feel like wood or stone. It seems to be made of similar materials to those insect nests and passages. It should be the same kind of wax. This shape

It’s not a dumpling, it’s a pupa, the same thing as what was in that bullshit prince’s sarcophagus.”

As soon as Hu Bayi said these words, everyone's nerves tightened. These three so-called coffins were three large ship-shaped pupae placed on the stone platform.

It looks like stone, but it is actually hard wax that has turned into grayish white.

These three waxy pupae are exactly the same as the pupae in the sarcophagus under the Black Pool, from which the Lord of the Human Flies emerged. The failed experiments created by Tianling Sanren are the same as those that did not have time to grow and were malformed.

Human flies are all defective products, and their intelligence and physical strength are far inferior to the near-perfect body of the prince.

According to Xiao Ran's experience, only a complete body that can fly across the sky and the earth is worthy of using this kind of wax pupa. A prince or even an infant little human fly is almost impossible to deal with, and here are three adult-sized ones.

Once all the pupae are released, what will happen?

Xu Er couldn't help but touch his head, and then covered his dusty cotton hat tighter.

"Lao Hu, why don't we open it? Do you think there is any obvious weapon inside?" the fat man asked.

Before Hu Bayi could answer, Xiao Ran strode to the largest wax chrysalis in the middle, raised his hand and knocked on it, and there was an empty echo inside.

He swallowed again, turned to look at the others, and then pushed the wax chrysalis with a little force. The wax chrysalis actually shook slightly. There was no "gurgling" sound when the liquid inside was shaking, but instead

There is a clattering sound when solid objects collide.

When the fat man heard the sound, he immediately became happy and said to Hu Bayi: "Look! Old Hu, Brother Xiao has tried it with his own hands. It's basically empty inside. Let's open it quickly and take a look! I heard that banging sound.

, maybe it’s some kind of gold and silver ornaments belonging to Mr. Sherborne.”

Now that he has reached this point, Hu Bayi has nothing to say. It's just that this is the first time for him to open this so-called "coffin". After looking at it for a long time, he was like a monkey eating a crab and had no idea where to start. In the end, he had to directly swing the shovel.

Knocked on the top of the pupa.

The wax shell of this pupa feels like hard plastic when you knock it. After a few shovels, a gap opens in the wax pupa, and then the fragments fall into the pupa one after another.

"I'll come, I'll come! You take a rest!"

The fat man rolled up his sleeves, pushed Hu Bayi aside, jumped onto the stone platform, raised the tip of the shovel and hit the edge of the crack several times, making the hole above the pupa wider.

He looked inside with his flashlight, and instantly his whole body shrank.

"What kind of junk are these... I thought there was some kind of treasure. These are all broken leaves and animal skins..."

Hearing what the fat man said, Xiao Ran and Hu Bayi also jumped on the table and carefully shined a flashlight into the gap. In the wax chrysalis, there were indeed many dead leaves and large and small animal skins, which seemed to be mice and weasels.

It has a similar skin with a few half-meter-long transparent wings in the middle.

There was a pile of rags piled on the edge of the dead leaves of these animal skins, like a torn robe.

Xiao Ran and Hu Bayi raised their heads and looked at each other, their eyes full of doubts. Hu Bayi said: "There seems to be..."

"Bedding?" Xiao Ran answered immediately.

The information conveyed by Hu Bayi's eyes made Xiao Ran understand that the two of them had the same idea. The contents of the wax chrysalis indeed seemed to have been deliberately laid out like this for sleeping.

The fat man heard the two talking about the bedding, so he got closer and took a closer look. He raised his head and said, "This bedding seems... quite clean. It seems like someone just slept there..."

The fat man's words made several people shudder. At this time, Hu Bayi added: "Brother Xiao, I just said something halfway, but it got sidetracked. Before we woke up, someone also pressed the button for us.

Head, we thought it was you, but we didn’t expect you to be the last one to wake up. I guess there are more than just the four of us down here..."

Xiao Ran suddenly felt his scalp numb. He looked around, his eyes widened, and asked the other two people: "Where is Xu Er? Xu Er!"

At this time, there were only the three of them next to the wax chrysalis. Xu Er suddenly disappeared at some point. The three people jumped off the platform in a hurry and kept calling Xu Er. When the fat man came down, none of them could stand still and grabbed the edge of the wax chrysalis with both hands.

He actually pulled the wax pupa off the stone base and knocked another wax pupa next to it to the ground.

"Fat man! You are my ancestor, can't you just slow down a little bit?"

Hu Bayi quickly went around and checked the wax chrysalis that had been knocked to the ground. He made sure that there were no signs of breakage, and then he breathed a sigh of relief.

At this time, looking at the wax pupa shell that the fat man had pulled off, the three of them discovered that there was actually a hollow underneath the wax pupa. Before, it was just buckled on the stone base like a shell. In this way, they believed it even more.

, there is a fifth person in this tomb, and even made a home here.

"Xu Er! Xu Er! Where are you?!"

Several people left the center of the tomb, shouting and looking for Xu Er. Xiao Ran walked all the way to the location of the previous mural, but there was still no trace of Xu Er, so he planned to turn around and leave.

But he suddenly felt a chill in his back, and hurried back to the mural. The previous mural had ended with the scene of Sherburne's burial, but now another painting appeared on the originally blank wall next to it.

In the middle of this painting, there are five beheaded people. On both sides of these five people, there are two human figures with six arms and four legs.
