Chapter 188 Stone Trap

At the end of the flashlight, there is a throne also made of white jade.

The throne is located on a stone platform more than two meters high, connected by more than a dozen steps.

Its workmanship is simple and unpretentious, which is nothing more than an ordinary stone chair, but what sits on the throne really makes me feel incredible.

Because it is a completely dry corpse like dry wood.

The mummified corpse is very tall, about 19 meters, which is still what it looks like after dehydration and shrinking. I really don't know how tall this person was when he was alive.

The mummified body is wearing a simple white cloth robe, or simply hanging some cloth. Its eyes are deep and its whole head is drooping, but I can still see his long hair and beard.

I once heard that if people don't rot after death, their hair and beards will continue to grow. I haven't seen them before, but now it seems to be true.

Although the whole mummified corpse is no longer angry at all, sitting on the throne still gives people a feeling of reverence.

According to theory, in such a humid marine climate, the corpse thousands of years ago should have decayed long ago, and the mummified corpse in front of us should have been specially treated to prevent rot all year round.

However, whether it is the irrigation of mercury in Chinese tombs or the air-dried Egyptian mummies, all the dead made into mummies are not exposed outside, either buried or placed in special pharaoh coffins. And the one in front of me obviously violates common sense.

But the strangest place is not here, but the thing in the hand of the mummified corpse.

It is a three-pointed fork about two meters long and with a black luster all over the body.

The mummified corpse held the three-pointed fork tightly, with the fork head facing up, and the fork handle pestle on the ground, two or three inches deep into the ground.

Looking at the traces of the fork handle smashing the ground, it should have happened soon.

I swallowed a mouthful of saliva and couldn't help looking back at the three-pointed fork inserted diagonally on the stone table behind me, and then cold sweat flowed down from my vest.

I stood still and didn't dare to move. I stared at the mummified corpse in front of me and said to myself, did this guy just walk past me and then pulled the three-pointed fork out of the stone platform?

Obviously, my idea should be correct, because on the dust under my feet, there is indeed a string of footprints left by human beings walking barefoot.

Thinking of this, I carefully retreated.

Because the scene in front of me told me that this must be a fraudulent corpse, and the owner of the fraudulent corpse is likely to be Poseidon depicted on the stone mural.

Judging from the fact that he can hold such a heavy three-pointed fork with one hand after he became a mummified corpse, it is by no means a master that can easily deal with.

I don't want to die here for nothing. This zongzi has obviously been shocked by me. As long as it jumps at me with the fork, ten lives are not enough for me, so I plan to leave the hall first. When I go outside, I at least have room for maneuver.

But just as I slowly retreated, the mummified body's head seemed to move.

This action surprised me, so I couldn't control so much anymore. I turned off the flashlight and ran back.

In fact, I was also scared at that time. I didn't think about whether I would fall or hit anything after turning off the flashlight. I just didn't want to let the other party know my direction.

Looking at the faint light from the door, I ran forward more than a dozen steps before I heard a bang and a sharp pain in my knee.

I thought it was bad. I just ran and didn't notice avoiding the stone platform.

Just thinking about this, my whole body fell forward.

However, while my body fell down, I felt as if I had stepped on something under my feet just now, and there was a rumbling sound in my ear.

My body has lost its balance, and I don't have a chance to see what mechanism I have touched. I just stretch my hands forward, so as not to hit my whole face on the stone and drop my front teeth.

But the amazing thing is that when I jumped out, I didn't encounter the imaginary fierce collision, and I actually jumped out.

That feeling is like a sudden empty heart, and then I don't know what to do.

Although it was fortunate that I didn't hit my front teeth, it disappeared in just a second, because I found that I didn't know how high I was going to fall and whether I would break my head.

For fortunately, this feeling of helplessness only lasted for a second, and then my hands touched the smooth slate, and then my whole body hit it.

After landing, I didn't have to turn over in a hurry and slid down the slate in the posture of a dog eating shit.

I know that this should be a downward extension slide, which is generally used to transport goods, or garbage dumps.

I don't know whether I am now a cargo or garbage, and I have slid down the slope for more than ten seconds.

Then I was empty again and became a straight down free fall.

I know that these situations have become worse. If this is a trap, maybe I will fall to death like this.

So I protected my head with both hands so that I wouldn't fall seriously as much as possible.

As the wind blowing in my ear, my psychology became more and more cold, because I have fallen at least dozens of meters, and my jump may not be so high.

Just when I thought I was dead, suddenly a faint light appeared in front of my eyes.

If it weren't for the darkness around, I wouldn't have noticed the light, because it was too weak, like the darkest star in the sky in the second half of the night.

When I didn't see what the white light spot was, I found that I was infinitely close to that light spot.

Almost at the same time, the wind around me suddenly disappeared, and a cold chill came from my forehead.

I thought I was dead, and the chill was the feeling when my brain collapsed, so I closed my eyes tightly.

But the chill slowly spread all over my body from the beginning of my forehead.

At this time, I realized that it was not the feeling of death, but the feeling of wet and cold when it rained.

So I slowly opened my eyes and let me see the sky.

However, the color of the sky is foggy and very opaque. Countless raindrops fell from the foggy sky and hit my face and body. It was very cold.

I can't understand why I came outside after falling from that dark underground passage.

And my posture is still lying on the cold ground, facing the sky.

Do you mean that I have fainted and dreamed?
