After estimating the power of their mobile phones, neither of them dared to waste any more time. Since there was only one direction at the moment, they quickened their pace and walked deeper into the corridor.
However, after taking just a few steps, Mei Qian suddenly felt awkward walking. Then she remembered that she had lost one of her slippers, so she simply lifted her foot and threw the other one far away.
"Wait!" Zhang Yu suddenly ran over and picked up the ugly plastic slippers: "Don't waste it, aren't you lacking lighting tools?"
"If you're not afraid of being poisoned, just keep it." Mei Qian glanced with disgust.
"Hey, it's better than not seeing anything at all." Zhang Yu actually stuffed the soft slippers into his trouser pocket.
Mei Qian was speechless, and felt his feet on the ground, so he took off his vest, tore it into two halves, wrapped it around his feet and tied it.
"Hurry up, my phone only has 20% of the battery, and it won't last long." Zhang Yu was lighting the light at the side, but he kept urging.
Mei Qian stood up again and suddenly took out a delicate and small thing from behind. "Whoosh", a strong beam of light appeared.
"This is this?" Zhang Yu was startled, and hurriedly shined the light of his mobile phone towards the source of the beam, and asked in surprise: "Why do you have a tactical flashlight?"
"It fell with us." Mei Qian made an excuse, thought for a moment, and then stretched out his hand: "How about I hold it for you?"
Zhang Yu took it and said with a smile: "You're lucky. Someone from the archaeological team may have lost this. This thing is so useful." After a pause, he sighed: "The ones I left in the car are not as good as this. It should be quite good."
Dear."
He didn't suspect that Mei Qian was hiding anything. After all, he had searched him when he got into the prison car, and there was nothing on him. Of course, he never imagined that there really was a system space in this world.
[When I buy things for my own use, of course I have to choose them well.]
Mei Qian muttered something in his mind, but saw Zhang Yu put the flashlight into his hand again.
After being stunned for a moment, he couldn't help but ask: "Will you use it for me?"
"I have a mobile phone after all. We each have one. It will be more convenient in case something happens." Zhang Yu answered while turning off his mobile phone and lighting it up without looking at him.
Mei Qian took a deep look, said nothing, and just walked in front with a flashlight...
----------------------------------
This corridor is very long. The two of them walked for more than ten minutes, but the front was still extending in darkness.
The beam of the flashlight swept across the walls on both sides from time to time. They were all paved with identical stone bricks. There were no hidden doors, no light fixtures, and not even a pattern could be seen.
Zhang Yu has been following Mei Qian closely, taking out his cell phone from time to time to test the signal strength.
"Don't waste electricity. We've been going down. It's weird that the signal can be transmitted." Mei Qian finally couldn't bear it anymore and comforted: "It's useless to worry about anything else now. It's better to save yourself."
It was obvious that the other party looked calm on the surface, but was actually very anxious in his heart.
He was also panicking. Although he was known as a tomb robber, he had never been to a tomb before. It was inevitable that he would have random thoughts for the first time.
In fact, along the way, he was carefully recalling the content of the novel he adapted, and he was also afraid that another bloody corpse would pop up, which would be enough for two people to drink from it.
But after all, he has the system in his body and has several life-saving skills such as "danger intuition, mechanism cracking, and light body skills". At least on the surface, he is much calmer than Zhang Yu.
Zhang Yu silently put his cell phone into his arms. The atmosphere in the monotonous environment was dull. He couldn't help but think a lot in his mind. He was indeed very worried about the safety of his apprentice and his colleagues.
"That's right..." Zhang Yu sighed, took out his cigarette, and the two parted ways.
The puffing of smoke didn't slow down the two of them, and they chatted a little from time to time, which made them feel much more relaxed.
After a few more minutes, the corridor finally stopped tilting, and both of them felt the difference under their feet.
Standing still, Mei Qian increased the power of the flashlight and looked forward carefully.
"The exit is here?" Thinking of this, the two of them quickened their pace. Sure enough, although it was still a long corridor, it was much wider than before.
If it could only barely accommodate two people, it is now enough to accommodate a car.
Moreover, there are more abstract lines on the walls on both sides. Under the light of the tactical flashlight, the obstacles in front can be vaguely seen. It is not known whether it is blocked or the stone door of the tomb is sealed.
Mei Qian frowned, guessing that the tomb should be in front of it, and there might be other passages.
With this thought in mind, he slowly walked towards the wall on the left, the beam of light swaying as if admiring the patterns on it.
"What did you see?" Zhang Yu asked curiously.
"I don't know this, but I just feel that the patterns on both sides are symmetrical." Mei Qian patted a certain stone brick hard: "This brick is quite strong."
After saying that, he raised his legs and was about to walk over, but unexpectedly he was grabbed by Zhang Yu.
"Fortunately, you are writing a tomb-robbing novel. Generally, places like this have agencies." Zhang Yu emphasized: "Stand here and don't move. It's up to me."
Mei Qian blinked, his intuition telling him that there was no danger ahead, but it was hard to explain.
So, he watched Zhang Yu take out the big slipper from his trouser pocket, then bent down and carefully threw it forward.
"Creak" came the sound of iron chains rubbing against the walls on both sides. Zhang Yu reacted quickly and pulled Mei Qian back.
But the abnormal sound only lasted for a few seconds and then went silent. After waiting for a long time, there were no crossbow arrows or stone traps.
[The system is really powerful. Although the mechanism cracking is only at the elementary level, it is still enough to deal with this trap. 】
Mei Qian had a puzzled look on his face and discussed with Zhang Yu in a low voice for a while. Finally, he speculated that the mechanism might be stuck due to the old age.
But since there really was a dangerous mechanism here, we can't act carelessly.
Zhang Yu asked Mei Qian to follow him and repeated the previous action of throwing slippers.
Mei Qian provided lighting at the rear and was ready to provide support at any time.
After struggling for about ten minutes, the two of them reached the end peacefully.
The space here is much higher than before, and a stone door about two meters high stands in front of you.
The stone door is flat and smooth without any decorative patterns. It doesn't move even if I push it.
"The legendary Dragon-Breaking Stone? Oh no, are we trapped here?" Zhang Yu's hand also touched the stone, and he was helpless.
Mei Qian's brows were knitted tightly together, he held up a flashlight and carefully rubbed one side of the stone door with one hand. When he didn't find it, he ran to the other side and continued to fumble. After a long time, he glanced at it calmly and was dejected.
Zhang Yu.
"Aren't you afraid?" he said suddenly.
"What are you afraid of?" Zhang Yu was worried and asked subconsciously after hearing this.
"If I am really a tomb robber, I have more experience in tombs than you. It is normal for someone to die in this ghost place. Just now you took the initiative to explore the trap, are you not afraid that I will trick you and run away by yourself?" Mei Qian turned around sadly...
