Chapter 376 Vernacular

Lin Zhi ordered the five of them to stand on a stone slab.

It was pitch black all around.

Everyone breathed a sigh of relief, they were almost buried outside just now.

Bang bang bang!

After a few muffled sounds, the surrounding lampstands automatically caught fire, allowing people to see clearly the surrounding situation.

Seeing this, Tieniu and others couldn't help but feel their hearts twitch.

Surrounding them were white bones!

There were countless white bones, and the stone slab they were standing on was at the top of a smooth slide, and the bones were on both sides of the slide.

"How many people must die here?!" Wu Xingshu asked in horror.

"It is said that the more than 2,000 people who were buried there were all buried here." Lin Zhiming said.

More than two thousand people?

Even though everyone was a tenth-grade martial artist, they still felt a chill coming over them when they heard this number.

"Thanks to the captain just now, otherwise we would be dead like these people." Bai He said.

"What does this have to do with him? The door will definitely open, and we will definitely be able to come in. It's just that the scene is a little more thrilling," Tieniu said.

"The captain asked us to line up in the order he told us, which can minimize the time we spend crossing the door. If the captain hadn't arranged it just now, and it wasn't me who stood first but someone else, then we would have to waste at least one more second.

In one second, someone might be buried outside. The captain can immediately think of the fastest order to pass the door, so he is indeed qualified to be the captain." Bai He said.

"Tch. Who wouldn't have thought of such a thing?" Tieniu curled his lips and said.

"Of course everyone can think of it afterwards, but in the situation just now, who of you can think of it? And just now the captain arranged himself to be the last one, who of you can do it?" Bai He asked.

Tieniu snorted coldly, but didn't say much after all.

"Tieniu, you were jammed by the door just now, right?" Lin Zhiming asked.

"Yes, captain, I can't help it. I'm too strong, but luckily I didn't block you." Tieniu said with a smile.

"You have to be careful in the future, otherwise, you will kill me." Lin Zhiming said with a smile.

"I know Captain, there is no problem! I will definitely pay attention!" Tieniu said seriously.

"This should be the track." Bai He pointed to the slide on the ground and said.

"Hmm! The switch is here." Lin Zhiming walked to the back of the stone slab and pointed at an inclined rod and said.

"Then shall we go down on the stone slab or walk down?" Gong Qiu asked.

"The slope down here is getting more and more shaky. It's pitch black ahead and I don't know what it is. I suggest you go down on the stone slab." Bai He said.

"So why are you afraid of death? This has a history of more than a thousand years. You guys, some of the institutions have long since aged. What are you afraid of?" Tieniu said contemptuously.

"You guys sit down and I'll turn on the switch." Lin Zhiming said.

Bai He sat down first, followed by Gong Qiu, and then Wu Xingshu.

Seeing everyone else sit down, Tieniu curled his lips and sat down as well.

"There is a handle here that you can grab!" Bai He said.

At this time, everyone also saw the handle on the stone slab and grabbed the handle one after another.

Lin Zhiming grabbed the inclined bar and pulled hard.

With a click, the inclined rod was straightened, and then, Lin Zhiming and the others trembled slightly on the stone slabs beneath them, and slid forward along the slide little by little.

Thousands of years of time have made this slide much rougher. At first, the stone slabs moved very slowly, moving forward at a turtle speed. However, as time went by, the slope of the slide became larger and larger, and the speed of the stone slabs also increased.

Coming faster and faster.

The howling wind blew past everyone's ears.

White bones flashed past the crowd, and the lampstands automatically lit up.

It's like a rail car in an underground coal mine. The entire slide keeps looking downwards, and the speed of the stone slabs is getting faster and faster.

In the end, the speed of the stone slab has soared to hundreds of speeds per hour, and the surrounding bones have disappeared, leaving only the lampstands that are constantly lighting up on the walls of the passage.

Whoosh!

Sharp iron thorns suddenly shot out from the wall next to them.

These iron thorns are extremely fast, but fortunately everyone is a master, so they either easily dodge them or open them directly with a fist.

The attack of iron thorns lasted for more than ten seconds and then disappeared, replaced by huge swinging stones. The stones were dangling in front of the stone slab, which was extremely scary. However, facing the tenth-grade Wuqing, these stones remained the same.

Not enough to see, in the blink of an eye, everyone passed through this area.

"There is light ahead!" Bai He said, pointing ahead.

Everyone looked forward and found that there was indeed a glimmer of light in front of them.

"It may be the exit, everyone should pay attention." Lin Zhiming said.

"There is the sound of water outside the exit. Be careful, it may be an underground river or underground lake." Bai He said.

Hearing this, Lin Zhiming glanced at Bai He in surprise, the sound of water? He didn't hear it at all. Bai He's hearing is too good, right?

In the blink of an eye, everyone arrived at the exit. There was an upward slope of about ten meters at the exit. The stone slab that was originally going down quickly suddenly changed direction here, from downward to upward.

With a whoosh, the stone slab flew directly out of the exit, drew a perfect arc in the air, and then suddenly fell.

boom?!

The stone slab hit the water heavily.

"Jump forward." Lin Zhiming shouted.

Bai He was the first to react, leaping forward, and then smoothly hugged a platform not far ahead. After that, others also jumped and landed on the platform.

After everyone landed on the platform, bursts of green smoke came out of the stone slab, and then sank into the water.

"This is strong acid!" Bai He looked at the black water in front of him and said with an ugly expression.

strong acid?

Everyone's hearts skipped a beat. Although they were powerful, they still didn't have much resistance when faced with things like strong acid. Strong acid directly acts on the human body. Once they fall into strong acid, they will die even if they don't.

Delaminated skin.

If you had been a little slower just now, you might have been soaked in strong acid along with the slate.

Thanks to Lin Zhiming's reminder, everyone got away from the stone slab immediately, thus avoiding being corroded by the strong acid.

"How could there be such a terrible thing?" Gong Qiu couldn't help but ask.

"Emperors in ancient times would build their own tombs by making mountains, rivers, lakes and seas. The so-called Hu Hai was basically made of mercury or strong acid, which could prevent tomb robbers to a great extent." Lin Zhiming explained.

"How did you know?" Bai He asked.

"Don't you guys do your homework in advance? After all, this is the tomb of Emperor Wu who was the emperor for ten thousand years. How can it be simple? Even if there is no information about Emperor Wu's tomb on the Internet, you can also refer to the tombs of Emperor Wen and other emperors later, and you can probably know it.

Seventy-seven or eighty-eight." Lin Zhiming said.

Hearing Lin Zhiming's words, everyone was a little embarrassed, because they had not done any homework in advance. In their opinion, the ancient tombs from thousands of years ago were not worth taking seriously. No matter how powerful the ancients were, how powerful could they be?

?

"There is a door here, it is closed." Bai He walked to the side of the platform and said.

Everyone walked over and found that it was indeed a closed door. The door was very large, just like the door at the school entrance. There were many sunken pits on the door, which looked like briquettes.

"What is this?" Tieniu asked.

"I don't know." Everyone shook their heads, and then all looked at Lin Zhiming.

In their eyes, the only one who might know what this door is is Lin Zhiming.

"I don't know either." Lin Zhiming shook his head. This was the first time he had seen such a door.

At this moment, the water behind everyone suddenly began to surge.

Hearing the sound, everyone turned around and looked.

Seeing this, everyone's expressions changed.

The water surface is actually rising little by little!

"Asshole, you didn't give us enough time to break down the door! Look at me!" Tieniu roared and punched the door directly.

Boom!

There was a loud bang and the door trembled slightly.

"How is that possible!" Tieniu looked at the door in horror. He knew how powerful he was. His punch was enough to blow away a normal security door. In the end, the door only trembled slightly.

one time.

"There is a line of words here." Lin Zhiming pointed to the edge of the door, then stretched out his hand to remove the dust from that place.

A line of text appeared in front of everyone.

"Only those strong enough can enter this door!"

"Emperor Wu still used vernacular." Lin Zhiming said with a smile.

"Now is not the time to focus on this. How can we open this door?" Tieniu asked.

"There are words here." Lin Zhiming wiped an area and said.

When everyone looked at it, they saw a line of words on it that read, "This is a door to test your strength and speed. The door will only open if you pass the door's test."

"It's still in vernacular." Lin Zhiming frowned slightly. In ancient times, popular writing generally used classical Chinese, especially at the level of the emperor. Therefore, the appearance of these two paragraphs of vernacular in Emperor Wu's tomb made Lin Zhiming very surprised.

"How to test strength and speed?" Gong Qiu asked.

"There are words here too." Bai He suddenly pointed to a spot on the door and shouted.

Everyone came to Bai He and took a look, and found a line of words written there.

"Hit here. If you have enough strength, you can start the speed test."

It’s another vernacular, and this vernacular sounds very modern.

Lin Zhiming's expression became a little strange. Were these words... left behind thousands of years ago, or were they carved by people today?

"I'm coming!" Tieniu signaled everyone to get out of the way, then stood still, clenched his fists, and gathered all his strength in one place.

"Ha!" Tieniu punched the door.

Boom!

After a loud bang, the door did not change.

"What's going on?" Tieniu asked doubtfully.

"The strength is not enough." Lin Zhiming said.

"How is it possible! What I awakened is the trait of strength, how could it be that I don't have enough strength!" Tieniu said excitedly.

"If the power is enough, the speed test will be turned on. If it is not turned on now, it means the power is not enough. Do you need to say more?" Lin Zhiming asked.

"If I don't have enough strength, who else has enough? Do we have to die here?!" Tieniu said excitedly.

"Let me try." Bai He said.

"You? Come on, you are so thin, how can you be stronger than me!" Tieniu said.

"Let her try." Lin Zhiming said.

"Hmph, it can't be useful. If you can turn on the speed test, I will jump into the strong acid and swim." Tieniu said as he stepped aside.

Bai He walked to the door, took a deep breath, and punched it.

Boom!

After a loud noise, stone pillars suddenly rose up from the pits on the door, and then the stone pillars quickly returned to the pits. The whole process only lasted about two seconds.

Everything returned to normal, but the door did not open.

"What's going on?" Everyone looked at each other.

"Hit all the stone pillars to open this door." Lin Zhiming said.

"How do you know?" Tieniu asked.

"It says here." Lin Zhiming pointed at the wall and said.
