Chapter 59: The Stone Ball

Sure enough, after careful inspection, there was a small gap around the bottom of the coffin. I used a dagger to pry it, but it didn't move. It seemed that there should be some mechanism or the like in the coffin, otherwise it would not be so strong.

"Take out the bones." I said. Several people started working together, and soon it was empty. We immediately discovered that there were two small holes at the feet of the bones, about an inch in diameter.

, looks very weird. Because the existence of such holes in the coffin is meaningless, and the existence must be reasonable. I was immediately sure that these two holes might be the secret.

Liu Qingping and I each took a dagger and stuffed it into the hole. It was not deep inside, but we could feel that there was a ball inside. After finding the right position, we pressed the tip of the dagger against the top of the ball and then pushed hard.

Pound it inside. The ball slowly sank inward. When it reached a certain position, we heard a soft "click" sound from the bottom of the coffin, and then one end of the bottom of the coffin slowly sank downwards.

.

"It's done?" We watched this phenomenon in surprise. When the bottom of the coffin fell to an angle of 45 degrees, it stopped, but a dark hole below appeared in front of us. It was obvious that this was the hidden exit.

.

I breathed a sigh of relief, and after so much effort, I finally found the exit. This mechanism was set up so cleverly. The bones were just a tool to hide the secret. If we didn't find it, we might not be able to find it at all.

.

Now that we have found the exit, we naturally have to set off, but when it comes to this cave entrance, no one dares to get in first. The previous incident has left a deep psychological shadow on people, and no one can be 100% sure that this is the real one.

When we exit, will we encounter something more dangerous, so all of us are hesitant.

Of course, that's not what I thought. To create a trap that can be preserved for many years and still be effective, the conditions required are too harsh, and the manpower and material resources required are too huge. I don't think this place will be full of traps. After all, it was originally

The ancient King of Shu fled here, and the existing materials could not satisfy his drastic measures. What just happened was just an accident, so I think this should be a real exit. What we should be wary of is the environment itself.

It's dangerous, don't worry too much about traps and the like.

So after some discussion, Liu Qingping and I took the vanguard role. This cave is different from before. Except for the first part that goes down diagonally, it becomes straight later. You can walk upright in the cave because it is natural.

It is formed, wide enough and high enough.

Not long after walking, I came across a relatively wide area. There was a huge circular cave in the rock wall above. There was a stone pillar going straight up from the center of the cave. As soon as I saw this pillar, I felt a little familiar.

Immediately, I shined the light upwards, and I immediately discovered that there were many dark things crawling on the stone walls around the cave. If I looked carefully, they were not the ferocious strange birds.

It turns out that the passage in the sarcophagus is really the exit, and is connected to the road under the colorful coffin, but one is a safe passage and the other is a road of death.

I was so frightened that I quickly turned off the light. If these ghosts were awakened, we would be in trouble in this environment. We could only grope the stone wall on one side and walk forward slowly. Fortunately, the alertness of these strange birds was very low.

, allowing us to pass through this area safely.

After traveling for about half an hour, we finally encountered a fork in the road, one sloping upward and the other sloping downward. As soon as he arrived here, Liu Qingping started yelling. It turned out that this was the place where he was knocked unconscious. According to him,

, he had just arrived at this place and was hesitating which way to go, when a figure came out from the side. The figure had long hair. He guessed that it was a woman, so he kept saying that it was a woman.

ghost.

A woman with long hair? I looked back at Guo Yingying and the two of them, and couldn't help but smile bitterly. Basically, the women we came to this time all had long hair, so this clue made it impossible for us to be sure who it was. Of course, it was impossible to be a ghost.

, I think the biggest possibility is Liu Yingying. If it was her, why would she do this? What does it mean to stuff him into the coffin?

It was obvious which road to take. One was taken by Liu Qingping, and the one that went diagonally downward was our only choice. Not long after we walked this road, it gradually became damp, and the stone walls

Moss began to appear everywhere, the ground gradually became slippery, and the air became humid.

After walking for about twenty minutes, the passage finally came to an end. At the end was a huge space. I originally thought that the so-called ghost palace was just a legend or a general name. Only after I got here did I finally know that it was really

There is such a thing as a ghost palace.

It was a large round boulder, estimated to be over a hundred meters in diameter. There were no traces of artificial excavation at all. It was hard to imagine how it was formed. It couldn't be a meteorite, because it looked very ordinary.

The stone is made of stone, and the top is sealed. Unless the meteorite can travel through space, it can only smash a big hole in the ground, and it will never have such an effect.

This side of the round boulder has been artificially processed, and a huge ghost face is painted on it. This ghost face wears a crown and is very powerful, just like a king. Its face is very ugly, and its eyes are round.

The huge mouth opened to reveal a mouthful of white teeth, and bright red liquid was dripping from the corners of the mouth. It was chilling to see. But the most eye-catching thing was that there was a stone palace on the top of the boulder. It was not big in size.

It is only thirty to forty meters long and wide, but it is shocking enough, because it is built on a round boulder. The focus is only on the center, and the four corners are in the air. It is hard to believe that this

How exactly is it made?

This palace looks even more spooky and spooky. There are many protruding things carved on it. If you look closely, they are the heads of ghosts. It is as if this palace is a monster with many heads.

When I saw this palace, I was immediately sure that this was the legendary ghost palace. Although it was not very big, the pressure it put on people was still extremely huge. Just looking at it made people feel very sad.

of depression.

There is a winding staircase built on top of the huge ghost face, which leads directly to the gate of the ghost palace. When we look at it from a distance, the staircase is like a scar on the ghost's face, making it even more hideous and ugly.

Now that we are here, we must go up and have a look. Besides, this is the secret place we have been looking for. We have prayed ninety-nine times, and we have to get through this last trembling no matter what.

"Do we really want to go up?" Guo Yingying said. The two women looked a little nervous, their eyes kept looking around, as if they were afraid that a ghost would suddenly appear next to them.

"Of course, it took a lot of effort for us to get here. This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. Maybe no one has discovered this place for thousands of years. We are the first people to discover this place. It's exciting to think about it."

This was said by Han Qiwei, and it also expressed the sentiments of most of us. We all yearn for such a place. Its mystery and unknownness alone are enough to attract us, not to mention that there may be some

The things we dream of are worth taking risks just for the sake of profit, at least that's what I think.

"Then what are you waiting for? Let's go up quickly. I really want to see what are the strange things made by people thousands of years ago." Liu Qingping was eager to try. He had already taken out the dagger and held it in his hand. For him,

For a very courageous person, even this kind of stimulation will make him flock to it.

"What about you? What's your opinion?" I looked at Yang Yun. He didn't speak. He only looked at the ghost palace with a complicated look, not knowing what he was thinking.

He looked at me, smiled slightly, and said: "Of course we are going, but we must be physically and mentally prepared. The many dangers we have experienced in the past have fully told us that carelessness here will lead to loss.

I think it will not be a smooth road for our lives, and we should be careful for our own sake."

I didn't expect him to be thinking about these things, but these words are very reasonable. The more you go to such a place, the more dangerous it is. Many experiences have fully told me this truth, so be careful when sailing.

We approached the round boulder on foot. The steps were set at the chin of the giant ghost face. They were two meters wide and were cut out of the boulder. There was no need to worry about it decaying. There were handrails on the outside of the steps, and there were sticks on them.

Pillars that are over a foot long are carved into ferocious heads.

We were mentally prepared to face any difficulties and obstacles, but we didn’t expect that we would arrive in front of the gate of the Ghost Palace easily. There were two strange-looking monsters on both sides of the gate, but our attention was completely

Not above, what draws our attention are the two giant doors.

This giant door is made of stone, and is covered with precise patterns. There is a skylight above the giant door, and there is a huge plaque with two large characters "Ghost Palace" written on it. As we thought,

This is indeed a real ghost palace. Just when we were about to open the door and go in, the stone slabs under our feet suddenly shook slightly, and then there was a muffled sound.

"What's going on?" Everyone looked at each other for a few times, but they didn't understand what happened. They didn't dare to open the door immediately. They kept looking around, trying to figure out what happened. But that sound

After the muffled sound, there was silence all around again. There was no sound or movement at all, as if what just happened was just an illusion.
