As soon as this voice sounded, my heart suddenly tightened!
I quickly used a flashlight to shine, but I saw that I was in a closed space. Although the space was quite large, the surroundings, especially the top, were covered with dense tree roots, entangled and intertwined, which made it difficult to see.
, there is a chilling feeling.
These tree roots should be those of the yellow-skinned fruit trees above.
However, I found that when the light of my flashlight passed by, those tree roots seemed to be moving, which was very strange...
Su Jin also discovered this situation.
She frowned slightly and said, "Why do I feel like these tree roots are moving?"
I nodded. There were tree roots all around, large and small. Not only did they cover the top of the mausoleum, even the surrounding area was covered with their roots.
At this time, Su Jin and I were in such a space with no way forward and no way out, surrounded by nothing but tree roots.
Su Jin was leaning against my back. The light of her flashlight fell on a top in the upper left corner, and there was an old tree root that looked like a human head.
Su Jin was startled on the spot, her face turned pale and she screamed, her body was trembling uncontrollably!
"Is this a tree root or a human head? It looks too similar..." Su Jinyu said in shock.
I frowned. Indeed, the old tree root looked very similar to a human head. It looked vaguely like a human head that had been cut off out of thin air and scraped on top...
Su Jin unconsciously put her body close to my back, and I could clearly feel some cold sweat on her back. She was scared.
"I feel that the reason why Zhuge Liang planted yellow-skinned fruit trees on the top of the mountain is not just because his wife likes to eat them. I heard an old man say that there are some things in this world that are easy to communicate with spirits, just like orangutans and monkeys among animals. Not only do they live longer than other animals
The animal is taller and has a very high IQ... I think this yellow-skinned fruit tree should be regarded as a kind of existence that is easy to psychic. Otherwise, Zhuge Liang would not have spent so much effort filling in the soil to build the mountain and planted so many
Yellow-skinned fruit tree." I said.
As I finished speaking, Su Jin suddenly held his breath.
Not allowing me to speak again, I felt her body tremble sharply.
I quickly looked back and saw several corpses tied up by tree roots not far from Su Jin.
Those corpses were all wearing armor, and the helmets on their heads were still there, but the flesh and blood inside the clothes had long been gone. It seemed that they had been completely weathered over the ages.
I shined the flashlight over and clearly saw that the corpses were tightly wrapped in tree roots. Countless roots were tightly strangled on the bodies of these corpses, and even the skeletons were strangled and deformed...
The corpses were hanging in mid-air, and there were many marks of being struck by swords on the roots of the tree where they were tied. As for the ground, there were many rusty weapons scattered around.
Looking at how these corpses were dressed, a thought quickly flashed through my mind.
Sure enough, my idea was confirmed by Su Jin.
Su Jin said quietly: "These corpses, like the ancestors of my Su family, were all Cao Cao's captains."
"Then are there any ancestors of your Su family here?"
Su Jin shook his head, "No, my ancestor came in with them at that time. They accidentally found Yueying's tomb here, but later encountered danger. He escaped by himself, but his companions could not
Still alive...
Later, my ancestor was worried about being blamed by the Emperor of Wei, so he fled to a place where no one knew him and kept his name anonymous. However, the rumors about the Blood Compass never stopped... These are what I saw in the books left by my ancestors.
, It’s a pity that even though my fathers and grandfathers knew that Yueying’s tomb was here, none of them dared to come.”
Speaking of this, Su Jin was obviously a little proud.
Obviously, for her, doing something that her ancestors have never dared to do is the most remarkable thing about her.
I can't help but admire Su Jin, she is much braver in things that men don't dare to do...
At this moment, the body hanging in mid-air suddenly swayed a few times, then suddenly fell down and scattered all over the ground.
These corpses were so old that all the water and flesh had evaporated. As soon as they fell to the ground, they immediately scattered into a pile of bones...
The sudden strangeness made my heart sink.
I quickly shined the flashlight over it, and saw that the tree roots that originally tied the body turned out to be like water snakes, twisting on them.
Countless tree roots and roots, like spiritual beings, wrapped around the entire roof and covered the ground. Although the speed was slow, it was overwhelming...
I secretly said something bad. The roots of these yellow-skinned fruit trees seemed to move violently when exposed to the light of a flashlight.
"Hurry up and turn off the flashlight." I said.
Sure enough, when the flashlight was turned off, and in the darkness, I clearly felt that the sound of the tree roots had weakened a lot...
"These tree roots have not been exposed to sunlight all year round. Once they see light, they will be automatically triggered. So when your ancestors and those companions entered the tomb, they were immediately caught up in these tree roots." I said.
Su Jin suddenly realized it, but now that he came to his senses, he was obviously a little slow.
"What should we do now?" Su Jin asked anxiously.
In the darkness, I could vaguely see countless tree roots, coming in a steady stream like the tide. The ground not far away had long been covered with a dense layer of tree roots. These things looked like water snakes.
Likewise, whenever something is touched, it will be immediately wrapped up by countless roots.
In comparison, Su Jin's ancestors should have come in with torches, but the roots of these yellow-skinned fruit trees were instantly touched, and then they were entangled to death...
When I think of this, I can't help but break into a cold sweat.
"Don't move, and don't turn on the flashlight. These tree roots seem to be able to sense light and movement." I said carefully in a low voice.
Su Jin nodded quickly, not even daring to say anything.
The tree roots are still coming towards us. Those roots are in clusters. In less than a few minutes, they are covered by tree roots in all directions. Even the entrance of the tomb where we entered before is covered by tree roots.
It's all blocked up.
Yes, now even the last way to survive has been cut off!
Su Jin's forehead was already sweating. She was facing me at this moment. I could clearly feel that her breathing was a little quick at this moment. In front of these tree roots, no matter how powerful she was, it was in vain.
The best way is to avoid light, let alone noise and movement, so that these tree roots can return to calmness again, and the danger will naturally be eliminated...
Su Jin and I tried hard to adjust our breathing and try to calm ourselves down, but those tree roots didn't give us much time.
After a few seconds, countless roots spread over, covering all our feet, then entangled our feet, and then followed our bodies and tied our waists together.
Seeing the roots still rising up, my heart was in my throat, but here I adjusted my breathing a little, and the speed of the roots also slowed down a lot.
But just at this moment, Su Jin suddenly and unconsciously let out a strange groan.
I looked down and saw Su Jin, who was right next to me, with a flushed face, and her eyes fixed on a tree root that had slowly reached the inside of her thigh...
