Chapter 61 The Stone Man
"I don't know if my guess is correct." Ji Fan breathed a sigh of relief and motioned for Xiaoqiao to stay away and move closer to a safe position.
Ji Fan pressed hard on the word "purple" with his index finger, and then he was surprised to find that the word actually sunk in. Sure enough, the mechanism of the mausoleum was on these words.
Without hesitation, Ji Fan pressed the fourth word "Lin" and the first word "Qiu" in sequence. The combination is Zi Linqiu, which is Yanmo's favorite flower.
Then Ji Fan let out a breath and looked at the tomb door expectantly.
"There's no movement at all!" Xiaoqiao frowned, feeling a little panicked.
"Wait a minute..." Before Ji Fan could finish his words, there was a roar inside the stone wall, and then the stone door opened in response.
"Mr. Ji, the door is open, have you seen it?" Xiaoqiao tugged on Ji Fan's sleeve and pointed at the dark tomb passage and shouted.
Ji Fan nodded, "Let's go in! You follow me, be careful."
"Do you really want to go in? There won't be any walking corpses popping out of here suddenly, right?" Ji Fan stepped into the tomb passage, but Xiaoqiao was a little hesitant and couldn't take a step forward.
"How about you stay outside alone and wait for me to bring your young lady out?"
"Outside..." Xiaoqiao looked around. The cold wind blew through the fir trees, making sounds like ghosts crying and wolf howling. Xiaoqiao clenched her fists and shook her head vigorously.
"Master Ji, I'd better go in with you!"
Ji Fan shook his head, praying in his heart that this little girl would be obedient and not cause any trouble for him. To be honest, Ji Fan disliked this guy a little, but even so, he still had to take her with him, if she was left alone in the tomb.
If something happened outside, Ji Fan would not be able to explain it to Yanmo.
He waved his hand towards Xiaoqiao, motioning for her to follow her footsteps, and the two of them walked towards the depths of the tomb.
After walking for hundreds of feet, Ji Fan estimated that he had reached the middle of the mausoleum! From the outside, the tomb was only a thousand feet in diameter, and it was very simple.
Compared with the ancient ruins that Ji Fan had visited before, there were no strange carvings on the walls on either side, nor were there any extra dark rooms.
"Sir, did you hear anything?" Xiaoqiao said suddenly, holding a torch and following behind Ji Fan.
"Voice?" Ji Fan turned his head and looked at Xiaoqiao.
That's right! At this time, he heard it too! It seemed like something was approaching. Ji Fan had focused all his attention on the front and didn't notice anything wrong around him. But at this time, he stopped, and there was only one thing in the tomb passage.
The sound of footsteps disappeared. Ji Fan heard it clearly, it seemed like someone was walking on tiptoe.
"Dong dong dong." Heavy footsteps suddenly came from all directions. Ji Fan pointed the torch forward.
"Stone man." Ji Fan's heart trembled. A large number of stone men suddenly appeared in the passage ahead. They seemed to have sensed that their whereabouts had been discovered, and no longer deliberately concealed their footsteps, and strode towards Ji Fan.
"Sir, there are monsters behind us, and there are monsters following us." Xiaoqiao's scream rang in Ji Fan's ears.
Ji Fan glanced behind him. The tomb passage he came from was also blocked by stone figures.
"Xiaoqiao, stick close to me." Ji Fan shouted, and then took out Wuming from the storage bag.
The little girl seemed to be quite frightened. After hearing Ji Fan's instructions, she directly threw the torch in her hand at the stone men, rushed up from behind, and hugged Ji Fan's waist.
Ji Fan glanced at the two small hands in front of his waist and twitched the corners of his mouth. This girl is so good at deceiving people!
However, he had no chance to let Xiaoqiao adjust his posture. The stone man had already rushed in front of him, and the glowing fist smashed into his face.
Ji Fan shouted loudly, fired the torch in his hand into the stone wall on one side, raised the sword in front of his eyes with his right hand, turned the hilt, and pointed the blade forward.
"Hiss" the stone man had no expression on his face and punched the blade of the sword. Immediately, his entire fist and even his arm were cut open.
The thunder and lightning in the sword penetrated into the body of the stone man, and the stone man in front of him was directly exploded by the lightning.
Ji Fan solved the attack in front of him and began to use the nineteen moves of Tianxing Sword Technique to condense the sword shadow to resist the stone man in front and behind him.
"Damn it, I can't kill them all, Xiaoqiao, think of a way!" Ji Fan shouted.
"A way, a way." Xiaoqiao saw the stone men rushing over from outside the sword shadow, and felt anxious as she kept looking around.
"Yes, sir, let's try the top." Xiaoqiao seemed to have thought of something and pointed to the top of her head.
"Above?" Ji Fan glanced at the top of his head. Apart from the stone wall, there was nothing special about it.
"Sir, it's very possible that where we are is just a trap, and the real tomb passage is above." Xiaoqiao added.
When Ji Fan heard this, he was confused. He had no better way to escape. He could only try to place his hope on Xiaoqiao's guess. I hope this girl didn't make a blind guess this time!
He has been tricked and scared!
Two crescent-like sword lights swayed out, neutralizing the attacks of the stone men in front and behind. Ji Fan stabbed the stone slab above his head with his sword. Amidst the thunder and lightning, the stone slab exploded, revealing a huge space.
Ji Fan felt happy, picked up the "pendant" on his body, kicked it on the ground, and jumped up using his body skills.
Arriving at the "real tomb passage" that Xiaoqiao called, Ji Fan slumped down on the ground and looked down through the gap. The stone men did not look up. They turned their stone heads twice and left.
"Xiaoqiao, are you hiding something from me?" Ji Fan's expression turned cold and he looked at Xiaoqiao, who was lying on the ground, breathing heavily.
"Ah! Master, Xiaoqiao doesn't know anything!"
"Then how do you know that this is the real tomb passage?" Ji Fan stared into Xiaoqiao's dark eyes.
"This... I went to the opera with my lady before, and the opera singer said it." Seeing that Ji Fan was still puzzled, Xiaoqiao explained patiently, "The opera singer said that there is a kind of mausoleum that uses fake tomb passages to lure tomb robbers.
people, and then used the secret door to surround the tomb robbers in the tomb passage."
Xiaoqiao paused for a moment and then said, "As for the real tomb passage above the head, I just speculated that it was just a blind cat encountering a dead mouse."
Ji Fan was stunned for a moment. Hearing what she said, he felt funny in his heart. Sure enough, the silly girl was lucky. "Xiaoqiao, if we follow the fake tomb passage, where will we go?" Ji Fan thought of what just happened and felt a little scared.
Questioned.
"You might get lost in it! In a mausoleum like this, every once in a while, the secret passages in it will automatically change and turn into a maze. In the end, the tomb robbers will be trapped alive in the mausoleum." Xiaoqiao hesitated.
whispered.
Ji Fan's heart froze as he remembered that he had left a message for Xiao Jian. If that guy came and wandered around like them with his head dazed, it would be dangerous.
"Rumble..." The stone slab under his feet kept shaking. Ji Fan was worried that Xiaoqiao would fall, so he quickly asked her to stay away from the gap.
"What the hell is this place?" A familiar voice came from the passage at his feet. Ji Fan lay on the ground and looked up. A white figure brandished a sword and ran towards him, fighting against the stone man while shouting loudly.
He shouted, "Damn it, Ji Fan asked me to come here to silence me?"
