A bright light flashed through the passage of the tomb, and the man holding a strong flashlight shone around to explore the stone walls and vaults of the passage, as well as the dark front.
When a strong light shone on the stone wall at close range, the man's appearance was reflected in the darkness.
A middle-aged man, thin, with unkempt hair on his back, fair face, full of energy, very bright eyes, and a calm and calm demeanor.
He was neatly groomed and neatly dressed, wearing a black Tang suit and holding a straight cane.
Such neat makeup appears in this tomb environment. Those who don't know it think it's rare, but those who know it think it's normal. This is an "underground archaeologist". In his early years, he was known as the thief in the world. Later, with his seniority and status in the world,
Growth, is respected as the Taoist.
Nowadays, under normal circumstances, Taoist masters are in retreat. Just like Taoist priests, they rarely go out in person. They only visit interesting places in person. For example, the shape of the tomb in front of you is very rare.
The cane clicked on the ground with the pace, and when the ground made a metallic collision sound, Daoye stopped. He did not look at the ground in a hurry, but followed the flashlight beam and scanned the surroundings in front of him. A dark place appeared in front of him.
It is a huge underground space. Under the light beam, you can roughly distinguish the underground palace of the tomb. Such a huge underground palace is extremely rare.
After roughly observing the surroundings, the flashlight beam shone at my feet. I tapped my cane on the ground a few more times, then rubbed it twice with my toes, scraping away a piece of dust, revealing a metal with a slight bronze luster.
ground.
He lifted up the cane and clamped it under the arm holding the flashlight. He let his free hand hang down naturally, and then slowly raised his palm. A slight vortex appeared in the dust on the ground. Suddenly he turned his palm and pushed it forward. His internal strength erupted, and the wind in his palm blew.
He walked out, sweeping away the dust on the ground in front of him, and took several palm shots to make the dust fly.
He grabbed his cane and held it next to him, waiting quietly. The surging dust made it difficult to get close to him. He looked at the ground where the dust had been blown away by the wind of his bright flashlight. It could be judged that the ground within a radius of more than ten meters in front was covered with metal.
The paving is not just a small area under the feet. There seem to be carved patterns on the metal floor. If all the dust is not removed, it will be difficult to see the complete appearance.
When the dust settled, Master Dao continued to move forward with his cane, looking at the dome above with his flashlight from time to time. There were several dark entrances around the underground palace, just like the corridor he walked in, but he didn't know where it led, and there was something hidden at the end.
What's the secret?
"I've never seen this kind of shape before, it's interesting..." Master Tao murmured with a smile, but there was a clicking sound under his feet, which seemed to have sunk a piece of the ground, and then there seemed to be a buzzing sound coming from the ground, and the sound of organic springs.
Boom! There was a shocking sound of heavy objects falling to the ground from the direction of the corridor coming in.
Master Dao's expression changed slightly. Based on his experience, he knew at a glance that the incoming passage was blocked by something falling.
Then there were dull creaking sounds from several other dark cave entrances, as if some heavy door had been opened.
Master Dao let go of his feet, took a few steps back, and quickly looked around with his flashlight. He knew that he had stepped on a trap. He didn't know what mechanism had been triggered in the tomb. If it could cut off the passage in and out, it meant that the trap was not a good one.
He was highly alert to his surroundings, but after waiting quietly for a while, the surroundings were completely quiet and no movement could be heard.
On the contrary, there was a "bang" sound from the direction of the entrance, which shook the ground here, and the buzzing sound echoed in the underground palace.
Soon, he noticed a different movement coming from the buzzing sound. The flashlight quickly shone at the entrance of a dark hole, as if there was something running. Under the light, a pair of green eyes came from the depths of the hole.
Appeared, and then the outline appeared completely, and a ragged man appeared.
It didn't look like a human being either. It was like a mummy, with white hair all over its body, sharp fangs, green eyes glowing under the flashlight, and black and sharp fingertips. It rushed out of the cave entrance, roared and rushed towards him. The surrounding cave entrances
All appear.
Zombies! A thought flashed through Master Dao's mind. Without stopping, he twisted the handle of his cane, and a cold light came out of the sheath. He took a step back, turned sideways to avoid the zombies, and made a sharp sword light from his hand.
, instantly brought out a puff of green blood from the zombie's neck.
The zombie's head flew out and separated from its body. The body hit the ground and twitched on the ground. After crawling several times, it couldn't get up.
The movement of Master Dao did not stop, the sword in his hand flashed, and the figures that rushed towards him were chopped to the ground by him, and the flashlight flashed randomly in front of him.
There was more than one zombie, and there were more and more zombies roaring and rushing towards him from the surrounding cave entrances.
Under siege, I was caught off guard. It was too late to defend the enemy with my sword. I used my hands and feet together. I hurriedly pierced the heart of a zombie with my sword, but found that piercing the heart was useless. The zombie still slapped me with a claw.
He kicked out a kick with great force, sending the zombie flying backwards and knocking over several others behind him. Before his feet could land, he spun around in the air and kicked back, then kicked another one away, twisting and turning again in the air.
He kicked several of them away quickly with his legs, and chopped off a few more heads with the cold light in his hand.
After a while, more than twenty powerful and ferocious zombies fell around him. Under the siege, not a single zombie could hurt him, but his hands and feet could not stop. A normal person would have been beaten long ago.
They dare not get close to him, but these zombies are not afraid of death at all, their attacks are fierce, and they are fierce and difficult to deal with.
"Click, click, click..." Rapid gunshots suddenly sounded at the entrance. The automatic rifle spit out tongues of fire in the hands of a thin man, and bullets were fired at the zombies that were rushing towards Dao Master to save him.
After a series of shots, the thin man found that the bullets had little effect on hitting the target, but instead attracted some zombies to rush toward him. He obviously had some experience in dealing with these things, and he quickly adjusted the point of impact, hitting the zombies' heads and knees.
The zombies that rushed towards him were either beaten until they lost the ability to run and fell to the ground to crawl, or they were hit in the head and their brains exploded and fell to the ground.
Under the flames spitting from the gun's muzzle, the thin man's cold and expressionless face shone, extremely calm and composed.
Seeing the zombies rushing towards them without fear of death, he advanced instead of retreating and faced them. He quickly changed the magazine with extremely fast movements. He quickly pulled the gun bolt, and the gunshots stopped and rang out continuously. He moved forward without haste or speed.
Yu, holding the automatic rifle with one hand, pulled out the pistol from his waist with the other hand, wiped the gun body against his belt, and loaded the bullet with a click. Without even looking, he shot the head of the zombie that was about to crawl forward with broken knee joints.
The last two shots were "pop bang" shots, directly hitting the head.
From time to time, the pistol fired back and fired a few times, blowing the heads off the zombies that were coming from behind.
The automatic rifle and pistol were in his hands, and he could freely change the magazines with one hand. He was not very skilled in the use of firearms. The zombies fell down one after another without being able to get close to him.
When Dao Ye dodged and cut off the head of the last zombie in front of him with his sword, the thin man's automatic rifle knocked over the last zombie with two clicks. Dao Ye lifted the stick with his toes and raised it in the air.
He rolled and fell, he sheathed his sword smoothly, turned back into a cane and struck the ground again, with clean and neat movements, he raised his hand to smooth his swaying back.
There was a strange fishy smell permeating the underground palace.
The skinny little man walked around Dao Ye and encountered a zombie that had been cut in half but was still alive or had its legs chopped off and was still flopping. The barrel of the automatic rifle fired at its head and made two "click-click" sounds, or a headshot.
The pistol came up and made two "pop" sounds.
After all the zombies in the underground palace were gone, the thin man was alert to the surroundings and quickly replaced the magazine. He put the pistol back on his waist and hung the automatic rifle on his shoulder. He pulled out a pipe from his back and opened it.
, "Chi" the lighting fireworks came out, and they were thrown out with the burning smoke, and a few were thrown around. The general outline of the underground palace was roughly revealed under the lighting of the fireworks, including a circular dome and a pile of zombie corpses on the ground.
The thin man walked up to the man who was arranging his clothes and said indifferently: "Master Tao, all the ideas that came from outside have been solved. The entrance is guarded by brothers, and the blocked rockfall has also exploded. You can evacuate at any time."
Master Dao hummed, then shined his flashlight on the zombie corpses on the ground and looked through them with his cane.
The skinny little man looked at the corpses around him, and after a rough calculation, he estimated that there were at least a hundred. He said somewhat strangely: "Where did there come from so many zombies?"
"You know, even if we met each other when I was doing business in the past, it was only one or two here and there. There are so many... this place is quite interesting, it's not in vain!" The Taoist chuckled, and the strong flashlight illuminated the surroundings again, freezing in place.
There is a nearly ten-meter-high seated statue of Guanyin, sitting cross-legged against the wall, looking very compassionate.
The entire underground palace is empty. There is just such an awkward seated Guanyin statue there. It is difficult not to notice it.
The flashlight focused on the neck of the Seated Avalokitesvara and found a pendant hanging around the neck of the Guanyin. The entire Seated Avalokitesvara is a stone statue carved in one piece. The pendant was obviously worn separately. For the time being, it seems that it is not.
It is the only moving object in the entire underground palace with a unified structure.
The Taoist man carefully walked over and suffered a loss. He knew that this tomb was unusual and weird. He kept tapping the ground with his cane, just like a blind man exploring the path. In fact, he was listening to see if the echo on the ground was abnormal, so as to avoid stepping on the trap again.
When I came to the seated Guanyin statue, I looked up and looked at it. I tapped the statue again with my cane, listened to the sound, took a breath, suddenly raised my breath and jumped lightly, landing on the lap of the statue. Then I jumped lightly, and quickly
I climbed on the shoulders of the seated statue, squatted down and pulled the chain around Guanyin's neck to look at it. I found it was a metal chain. I pulled up the pendant, blew off the dust, and looked at it with my flashlight. I found that it was a piece of bronze the size of a palm.
mirror.
He had never seen this style of bronze mirror before, but unlike the hanging chain, which was extremely rusty, the bronze mirror was antique and had no rust spots.
This is not a place to study slowly. I wanted to take off the bronze mirror and take it away, but found that the chain attached to it was integrated with the seated statue. I saw that the chain was almost rusty and probably not strong enough, so I put it aside.
Something, grabbed the chain, exhaled and exerted force, and with a snap, the chain was broken directly. However, a golden thread was pulled out of the chain, which seemed to pull something inside the neck of the statue.
