Chapter 040 Gossip Array
I saw that the pillar seemed to be alive, and I was almost stunned. Before I had time to think about it, Zhou Huan and I lay on the ground and retreated in a hurry.
As the gunshot sounded again, this time I understood, and I really let Zhou Huan be right. The gun did not hit us, but all in the direction of the pillar.
Looking at the pillar again, after twisting a few times, it rushed in the direction of the gunfire very fast, and immediately fell into the darkness in the thick fog and disappeared.
Zhou Huan and I looked at each other and saw that she was also full of fear, so I asked mindlessly, "Have you ever encountered such a thing as a pillar when robbing tombs?"
"You are really sick. I found out how this strange thing keeps going on as soon as I meet you."
I thought that this woman was really unreasonable. If she hadn't pulled me to rob the tomb, how could I have come to such a ghostly place? As soon as I was about to refute, I heard a heartbreaking scream in the direction of shooting us, as if a person had been attacked very terrible, which sounded particularly horrible and cautious.
This is really deadly. I guess it must be the so-called pillar that attacked them. Zhou Huan and I don't have any weapons on our bodies. If we want to run, we can't go there. We are in trouble for a while.
Then listen to Zhang Zhuang's direction. The screams had already been covered by the sound of gunfire, and they were shot for a moment. Shouting, the scene seemed extremely chaotic.
Slowly, I felt that the sound seemed to be coming in our direction. The speed was very fast. It sounded like a group of people running.
When Zhou Huan and I were still lying on the ground and didn't get up, the sound of footsteps had reached the front. I lay there and didn't dare to move. Then one person tripped over me and fell to the ground with a plop, just facing me.
Their flashlight was also on, so it was clear that it was me and Zhou Huan, and then I was picked up. At a glance, the person who mentioned me was Zhang Zhuang. He stared at me angrily.
"Big Zhang, don't get me wrong. We accidentally lost it just now." I explained quickly
"misunderstanding, fart your mother, do you think I'm a fool?" With Zhang Zhuang's angry scolding, a pistol hit my forehead.
At this time, I didn't know what to say, thinking: I have been caught, and there is nothing else to explain.
When Zhang Zhuang saw that I stopped talking, he raised his pistol and hit me on the head in anger. As the severe pain came, blood immediately flowed down, and my face was full of me.
"I wipe... you..."
"What, are you tired of living? Tell you, boy, don't think I'm reluctant to kill you. In fact, you are a waste. It's the same whether you have you or not."
As soon as I was about to get angry, Zhang Zhuang pointed at me and scolded a lot. For a moment, he confused me and covered his head and didn't say anything more.
"Brother, evacuate, that thing is coming again." A man with a gun said hurriedly.
When I was guessing what kind of attack they had encountered, I heard the sound of grinding behind me, as if something were crawling against the ground.
"Wait a minute before I settle accounts with you." Zhang Zhuang left this sentence, and immediately two people came to set up Zhou Huan and me, and ran to the darkness beside them.
I counted through the light. Except for the guy with the fire extinguisher on his back when he came in, everyone else was present. I guess the scream just now was made by that man.
When I thought of the horrible scream, I was particularly panicked and didn't need others to take it. I followed Zhang Zhuang with Zhou Huan and began to run.
In fact, they also didn't know the direction. They ran randomly and stopped. I gasped to listen, and I felt that the sound behind me had disappeared. I guess the thing was left behind by us.
At this time, the man in Zhang Zhuang's team was relatively old, and the only person who didn't have a gun said, "It's not a way to go on like this. We must suffer losses when the enemy is in the dark."
"What should I do, old man, find a way quickly!" Zhang Zhuang replied in a hurry.
I think this old ghost should be a role of something or a master around Zhang Zhuang. It was very inconspicuous to see him follow the team politely before. Now when I hear Zhang Zhuang's tone of him, it seems that this person's status is also quite high.
The old ghost looked around, as if there was no good way for a moment.
I hesitated for a moment, and then stepped forward and said to Zhang Zhuang, "What's inside? Let me interrupt. Now our biggest problem is that we can't see things clearly. The attack range of the gun is limited, but it would be better if you had explosives."
In fact, I don't want to help, I'm just in a hurry to leave this damn place.
After listening to me, his eyes lit up, and then said to Zhang Zhuang, "Yes, it makes sense. I thought that the environment here was like a blindfold before. Maybe it was because of the pattern of the house or the light. The fog formed small spaces here, and we would enter another empty every few steps. In the meantime, no matter how strong the flashlight is, it can't shine far.
I saw that the old man was still more powerful, and his explanation seemed to really make sense.
"Okay, then use explosives..." Zhang Zhuang immediately agreed with us.
Then I saw that the old man unpacked his backpack and took a bundle of explosives with a fuse from it. This kind of explosive was different from that used by Zhou Huan. Although it was relatively rough, it was estimated to be very powerful.
Zhang Zhuang took the explosive, then took out a cigarette and put it in his mouth, then lit the lighter and went to light the cigarette. After taking a sip, he went to order the explosive without saying a word*.
With the spark, Zhang Zhuang stretched out his hand to push me away, walked a few steps behind me, and threw the explosive into the darkness with a wave of his hand.
All of us covered our ears and lay on the ground, and then there was a huge explosion, and I felt the whole ancient house shaking.
I lay on the ground for a long time before I felt that my ears recovered a little. When I stood up, I felt that my eyes were bright. All the fog before was gone, and the flashlight could shine far away.
Looking around, we found that we were actually standing by the wall on one side of the house, a few steps at most, but everyone has been winding around and has never reached the position of the wall.
Zhang Zhuang looked very happy and came back and shouted to everyone, "Futa, we have been so far from the wall for half a day. Now it's all right. Let's go along the wall and go out first."
I think the previous fog really made the old ghost guess right. It was indeed divided into many narrow spaces, so we were isolated, and we couldn't see or hear other places.
After listening to him, Zhang Zhuang's men all walked towards the wall. Zhou Huan and I had no choice but to follow them along the wall.
After a few steps out, I found a triangular depression on the wall. I guess this should be the edges and corners I saw outside before. In every depression, there is something like 'sunflower'.
I was shaken when I saw this 'sunflower', because I have seen this thing. I have seen it once in the ancient tomb of Ma Ling before. The center of the petals is a wick-like object that can be lit.
I was really puzzled to the extreme, and I didn't expect to see this thing again in such a strange building.
Zhang Zhuang may also see this 'sunflower' for the first time. He felt very strange. He held up the flashlight and looked at it for a long time, but he probably didn't figure out what was going on.
At this time, I went to see Zhou Huan, and her expression also looked very surprised. She followed Zhang Zhuang and reached out to touch the 'sunflower' lamp, which seemed to be very inexplicable.
"Why, does Miss Zhou know what this thing is?" Zhang Zhuang asked Zhou Huan.
"I've seen it, but I can't tell. All I know is that this is a lamp that can be lit." Zhou Huan arrogantly told Zhang Zhuang the principle of this thing.
I saw Zhang Zhuang look at the 'sunflower' carefully again, and it took a long time before he said, "It's really like an oil lamp. Turn it up and have a look."
After he finished speaking, he took out the lighter to light the wick. It didn't take much effort, and a faint fire light burned.
Zhang Zhuang saw that this could really be lit, so he asked everyone to continue to walk around the wall. Sure enough, one by one 'sunflower' lights were exposed along the way. Every time he saw one, Zhang Zhuang went to light it. After walking around the room, a total of eight 'sunflower' lights lit up.
Now the whole room can be seen clearly, and the flashlight is no longer needed. I found that this is a completely empty blackstone room. There is nothing else except us, not to mention that the strange pillar that attacked us is not seen, and there is no door to enter. This room is finished. It is completely closed without any entrances and exits.
Damn it, what's going on? Did we get out of the ground?
Not only do I feel strange, but all the people seem to be confused, and the atmosphere suddenly becomes tense.
When everyone was at a loss, the older old ghost under Zhang Zhuang walked alone to a 'sunflower' lamp, took a few breaths in the direction of the wick, and then suddenly turned around and shouted to everyone: It seems that we have strayed into a formation.
After listening to him, Zhang Zhuang quickly stepped forward and asked, "What formation? Tell me more clearly. Is it dangerous?"
At this time, I saw that the old man's face became very ugly. I looked around and replied, "If I guess correctly, the place where we are now should be the 'gossip ghost array'. This array was created by Maoshan high-level people in ancient times. If everyone falls into this array, they will die without burial.
After listening to him, I looked disdainful. I haven't seen this kind of 'sunflower' lamp. At that time, I was concerned about dealing with those dumplings, and I didn't see any accident.
When I was rising alone, I suddenly smelled a very strong fragrance, which was extremely fragrant and smelled refreshing and particularly comfortable.
"Look, the ground in the middle of the room is moving..." A man shouted with exclaim.
I quickly looked at the ground in the middle of the room and found that the originally quiet ground was undergoing drastic changes. The earth, which had been motionless, seemed to be alive, and began to rotate around a circle.
As the speed of rotation becomes faster and faster, it gradually forms two colors, black and one white, and completely becomes a real gossip figure.
Damn, haunted... I hurried to see Zhou Huan, and she also seemed clueless. At this time, she heard Zhang Zhuang shout nervously to one of his men, "Go and see what's going on?"
The team member also looked very scared, but because he could not disobey the boss's order, he trembled with a gun and walked towards the center of the surface.
