Chapter 39 Chapter 6 Crying

The crying sound was faint, intermittent, and the three of them felt chills down their backs. Lian Xing turned his head and looked at Sima. Sima shook his head at him, but he didn't understand where the crying came from.If behind this iron gate is really the Mausoleum of the Ba Kingdom, it should have a history of thousands of years. Could it be that there are also ghosts in the thousands of years of the Mausoleum of the Ba Kingdom? The three looked at each other.After a while, Lian Xing raised his eyebrows and said, "Since we've come here, we can't retreat, so let's go in and have a look at it. No matter what kind of monster or ghost it is, let's fight it." .”

Sima nodded: "Brother Lian is right. Since we have come here, we always have to go in and make a breakthrough." Immediately, he took a deep breath, took a big step and rushed into the hole.Lian Xing and Xiao Longnv looked at each other, nodded, and walked in with big strides. Walking into the iron gate, under the reflection of the fire fold, there is a bluestone corridor in front of you.The bluestone corridor is more than two feet high and about one foot wide.The three of them walked among them without feeling cramped.The corridor is straight forward, and the stone walls on both sides are full of giant stone layers.The gap between the stones and the stones is covered with moss.

Lian Xing stretched out his hand to touch it, only to feel the moss was moist to the touch, he couldn't help being very curious, seeing that this corridor seems to be the tomb passage of Emperor Ba's mausoleum, why is there moss alive in the tomb passage?Presumably there is still air circulation in this tomb passage, so moss is hidden. Walking into the Qingshi corridor for tens of feet, suddenly the strange crying sounded again from a distance.The three hurriedly stopped, and when they looked forward, the strange crying stopped abruptly.Could the owner of that cry be able to sense someone coming?

Lian Xing's eyes flickered, he looked at the dark place ahead, and said slowly: "Maybe someone in the tomb is pretending to be a ghost." Xiao Longnu frowned, and said, "You mean that the crying in the tomb passage was deliberately faked?" Lian Xing said in a deep voice: "The two men in black we met earlier were bandits from Coffin Ridge. Just now, I heard from them that the leader of the bandits from Coffin Ridge came with two guests from other places. In the crevice of the sinkhole, they were scattered by giant salamanders. One of the foreign guests was killed by Ghost Yingying, and the other foreign guest followed the bandit leader of Coffin Ridge and two gangsters of Coffin Ridge into the valley .So it should not be just the three of us in this valley, there should be others." Sima nodded.

Xiao Longnv thought for a moment, and said slowly: "You said that, I remembered, I just met an old man with white hair in the woods. When the giant salamander attacked me, the old man He has disappeared. Thinking about it now, the white-haired old man must also be in the crevice of the sky at this moment." Lian Xing stared at the dark corridor opposite, and said slowly: "Maybe the white-haired old man is in the tomb passage of the Emperor Ba's Mausoleum right now—" Xiao Longnv and Sima shuddered and looked forward involuntarily . It was still dark ahead.In the darkness, there seemed to be countless pairs of eyes watching the three people's every move strangely.Lian Xing slowly pulled out the dagger and held it in his right hand, fully alert.Sima and Xiaolongnv also held their breath, and followed Lian Xing, walking forward slowly.

After walking dozens of steps, a cross passage suddenly appeared in front of him.This passage runs from north to south and east to west.The front, back, left, and right are the same, the three of them hesitated for a moment and stopped.Just as they stood still, a strong wind suddenly rang out, and a black figure rushed towards the three of them from the north passage. The momentum of the black shadow's rush was so strong that the three of them involuntarily took a step back.With a "whoosh", the black shadow flew past the three of them, ran from north to south, and disappeared in a blink of an eye.

A piece of pitch black in the cross tomb.The fire in Sima's hand couldn't be shaken, the flame flickered, and cast the figures of the three people on the stone wall. Sima said in a deep voice: "It seems that there is really someone else in this tomb passage." The three wondered in their hearts, who is this black figure appearing in the tomb passage?How did he get into the tomb? Lian Xing thought: There must be another way to enter and exit this tomb.Otherwise, with the vigilance of the three of them, it is impossible not to notice that someone entered the tomb passage of Emperor Ba's Mausoleum first.

The three gathered their minds together, took big strides, crossed the cross passage, and continued to walk eastward.Only Sima was holding a fire pocket in his hand, looking from a distance, the lamp was like a bean, and he gradually walked into the depths of the tomb passage.Turning around the corner of the tomb passage, the tomb passage was once again dark. In the dark tomb passage, an old man with white hair appeared on the way when the three of them came.The white-haired old man stood in the tomb passage, his eyes flashed, and he patrolled the tomb passage back and forth.After a while, the white-haired old man moved like a falcon and flew into the tomb passage north of the cross passage, disappearing without a trace.

Just as the white-haired old man left, another figure in white walked out from the shadow of the stone wall dozens of steps away.The man in white looked at the direction the white-haired old man was going, and seemed to be thinking. Lian Xing, Sima and Xiao Longnv walked slowly along the tomb passage.After turning a corner and walking about a mile away, the tomb passage that turns from east to north has come to an end.At the end are two large stone gates.One door is concealed, and the other door has been opened.Behind the open stone door, there seemed to be a faint whistling wind. Lian Xing, Xiao Long Nu and Sima walked in slowly.Sima turned the fire in his hand and took a look around, only to see a man-made grotto behind the stone gate.In the center of the grotto is a cave about ten feet square.

The three of them walked slowly to the cave.I saw a piece of pitch black inside the cave, which seemed to be bottomless, and a strong wind gushed out from the bottom of the cave.The gust of wind was so strong that the hair of the three of them fluttered. In the whistling wind, there was a faint cry, which seemed to come from this bottomless cave. The three of them frowned secretly, they didn't expect such a stormy eye to appear in the imperial mausoleum.What is the function of this wind eye? Lian Xing said in a low voice: "Brother Sima, what do you think is so strange about Fengyan?"

Sima pondered for a moment, then said in a deep voice: "I can't say this for a while. The tomb of the Emperor Baguo is called the Tomb of the King of Gu Poison. It must be full of insects and Gu. We have to be careful." Lian Xing nodded, and was about to speak, when he suddenly heard the sound of very light footsteps in the tomb passage behind him, and there was actually another person in the tomb passage.The faces of the three of them changed. Sima waved his hands to the two, signaling them to step aside, and opened his mouth to blow out the fire in his hands.The three quietly moved behind the stone gate, hiding in the darkness.Only the sound of footsteps was heard, and it seemed that more than one person had come. Lian Xing thought in his heart: It seems that what I expected was right, besides the three of us, there are other people in the imperial mausoleum at the mountainside. The footsteps were getting closer and closer, until they came to Shimen.A rough voice said: "Brother Xu, do you think this is here?" A gloomy voice replied: "Master Luo, don't look, it's here." Village Master Luo said in a deep voice: "Brother Xu, we've walked around here, why haven't we seen the coffin of the emperor's mausoleum?" "Brother Xu" said word by word: "The secret of the king's coffin in the Ba Kingdom's mausoleum lies in the eye of the wind."
