Chapter 44 Chapter Eight: Figurines

In order to save the battery, Young Master Liu turned on the light of the flashlight to the smallest setting.In this way, the area illuminated by the flashlight becomes very small, but it is still enough for everyone to see that this is a tomb. The outline of the tomb is circular, and a pair of tall stone watchtowers are placed symmetrically opposite. Between the two stone watchtowers is a tomb door, which leads to no one knows where. There are many figurines in the tomb. Those terracotta figurines are male and female, and they are all life-size.The clothes are luxurious and tidy.Judging from their clothes, they seem to be servants of the owner of the tomb.

A gold-framed carriage is placed in the middle of the terracotta figurine team, and the carriage is pulled by four pottery horses. The entire team faced the opposite tomb door, with their backs to everyone. There are also many porcelain, bronze and jade wares neatly stacked in the corner of the tomb. First Young Master Liu looked around. Suddenly a flashlight flashed across a place, his heart suddenly 'thumped', and he quickly shouted: "Master, look!" In the neat line of pottery servants, there is a pottery figurine facing the opposite direction to the other pottery figurines, smiling strangely and looking in the direction of Young Master Liu and the others. That smile looks like someone forcefully grabbed their hands from behind them. Pulling the corners of their mouths up is just as unnatural.

First Young Master Liu got goosebumps all over his body when he saw the terracotta figurine, and asked a little stammeringly, "What...what's going on here? How could a guy be so unconventional?" Zhang Enpu was silent for a while, tightened the Heavenly Master Sword on his waist, signaled Tian Guoqiang and others not to act rashly, and walked towards the pottery figurine himself. First Young Master Liu looked at his light footsteps, and followed him worriedly and fearfully. Along the way, everyone turned their heads curiously and glanced at the faces of other terracotta figurines around them, and found that they all had the same weird smiles as that terracotta figurine.

This made First Young Master Liu swallow his saliva involuntarily, and followed him even tighter. Zhang Enpu walked up to the pottery figurine and observed it carefully. Half a day passed and nothing happened. First Young Master Liu breathed a sigh of relief.It seems that the architects in ancient times were careless and placed the terracotta figurine in the wrong direction. He swept the flashlight to the carriage not far away. Will there be someone inside? Young Master Liu couldn't help but feel amused at his own thought.The owner of the carriage is the owner of this tomb, and it must be in the coffin in the back room. How could it be here?

Zhang Enpu stared at the terracotta figurines for a long while in thought, then suddenly turned his head to look at the carriage, and walked towards the carriage without saying a word. Several people hurriedly followed. Zhang Enpu stood in front of the carriage thinking about something. Seeing that he was thinking, Liu Dashao was embarrassed to disturb him, but couldn't bear the curiosity in his heart, so he walked to the window of the carriage alone, and shone the flashlight from the window into the car. There is nothing in the car. First Young Master Liu couldn't help but laugh at himself for being wild.But will there be any treasure in this car?

Thinking of this, he took a step closer, wanting to see clearly what was going on inside the car, and swept the flashlight under the window. A hideous face of a mummy suddenly appeared in front of his eyes. "Ah!" Young Master Liu screamed and quickly backed away, only to knock down a pottery figurine. The terracotta figurine fell to the ground and was smashed to pieces.The sound echoed in the tomb for a long time. "What's the matter?" Behind him, Zhang Enpu pulled First Young Master Liu far away, and stood in front of him holding the Celestial Master Sword. "Then...there is a mummy in the carriage!" First Young Master Liu said in shock.

Tian Guoqiang turned on his flashlight and scanned the car, but it was empty and there was nothing there. "How could that happen!" Young Master Liu exclaimed, "There was clearly a mummy inside just now..." Before he finished speaking, his heart felt chills: "This tomb is too weird... Let's evacuate first... ..." At this moment, he suddenly felt that there was always a sinister gaze staring at him from behind, which made him feel scared. First Young Master Liu suddenly turned his head, and carefully scanned every corner of the room with his flashlight, but found nothing unusual.

But the uneasiness in his heart never faded away, instead it became more and more intense. Suddenly, Young Master Liu had a flash of inspiration, no!When we were at the tomb door before, there was a terracotta figurine facing us, but now we look back near the tomb door on the other side, and none of the terracotta figurines turned their backs to us! "Master, I found that the pottery figurine is not quite right." Young Master Liu leaned towards Zhang Enpu slightly trembling. The tomb was extremely quiet, and no one spoke to him. Young Master Liu turned around strangely, and the flashlight swept over the place where Zhang Enpu was standing just now.

The front is empty, where is Zhang Enpu's figure? "Master!" Young Master Liu shouted, "Master! Tian Guoqiang, where are you, Fatty Bai?" Young Master Liu's voice echoed in the tomb, but no voice answered him. Now I am alone in a dark and closed space with the strangely disappearing mummy and pottery figurine. Fear occupied Young Master Liu's whole body and mind. Young Master Liu rushed to the tomb door, and found that the tomb door was made of a whole piece of bluestone, and there was no way to open it.My heart felt cold at the moment. Where did they go?

There was a slight rustling sound in the darkness, and suddenly there were two sounds of fighting between gold and iron. First Young Master Liu quickly shone the light on the sounding place with the flashlight. The sound stopped abruptly, and there was nothing in the flashlight. After a while, there was another rustling sound from another place. First Young Master Liu irradiated every sound source with a flashlight, but to no avail.The sound of Xiao Suo was still getting closer. A hand suddenly covered his mouth and nose forcefully, knocked down his flashlight, and dragged First Young Master Liu to the corner of the tomb.

Young Master Liu's eyes widened, and he desperately resisted, but was suppressed forcefully by the people behind him. "Hush!" There was a faint breath coming from his ears, almost inaudible.Obviously, the breathing rate was deliberately suppressed. At this time, he found that although the body temperature behind him was very low, it was still warm. master!First Young Master Liu breathed a sigh of relief and gave up his resistance. The flashlight that fell in the middle of the tomb suddenly flickered.A withered, skinny hand picked it up.The light turned and suddenly shone on a hideous mummy face.First Young Master Liu felt cold all over, and almost forgot to breathe. Only now did he see the mummy clearly. That mummy doesn't even have a lower body! The rustling sound just now was the sound it made when it crawled on the ground with its hands and its body rubbed against the ground. It turned its head and suddenly looked towards First Young Master Liu.Two swarthy holes stared blankly. Young Master Liu's heart beat like a drum. After a while, it finally turned around and slowly crawled back towards the carriage. Feeling that the hand covering him gradually relaxed, First Young Master Liu lowered his voice and asked, "Master, what's going on? Where did you go just now?" Zhang Enpu didn't speak behind him, suddenly Young Master Liu felt his body slipping a bit, he grabbed him quickly and found that his face was very pale. Young Master Liu was terrified this time, shook Zhang Enpu, and said in a panic, "Master...don't scare me...hey..." "It's okay, I was just hurt." Zhang Enpu opened his eyes slightly, and said in a weak voice, seeing the redness of his back, the unsheathed Celestial Master Sword and the two fallen bodies beside him. Mummy, Young Master Liu immediately got a general idea. Hearing the familiar voice, First Young Master Liu felt joy in his heart, and his fear disappeared a lot: "Where are the others?" "Shh, we're here, don't make any noise." Tian Guoqiang poked his head out from behind a pottery figurine, and said quietly, with a look of wariness on his face. "The flashlight is off." Zhang Enpu looked at the flashlight behind Young Master Liu and said with a frown. First Young Master Liu turned his head and saw that the flashlight in front of him was still on, thought for a while, and walked over to pick it up. It wasn't until this time that he realized that his hands were shaking all the time. Young Master Liu tremblingly pressed the flashlight a few times before turning off the flashlight, and hurried back to Zhang Enpu's side, leaning against the cold tomb wall exhaustedly. People always have a special instinct to yearn for the light in an unknown environment. But in this place full of unknown dangers, darkness is the safest, and the light is the most dangerous. What an irony!Young Master Liu smiled wryly, then turned his head and asked Zhang Enpu: "Master, what shall we do next?" Zhang Enpu gave him a supercilious look. Tian Guoqiang and Bai Erlaizi, who were lurking on the side, couldn't bear it anymore, and shouted in unison: "Be a bird, run away!" After speaking, they pulled the breech of their guns and fired in the opposite direction. Attracted by the sound, he ran over immediately.
