Chapter 901: Hanging Coffin
Several people walked forward along the river.
Wang Jinpeng grabbed his neck as he walked.
When I touched it, I found that I was bitten by an unknown insect and a pustule appeared.
"Pull up the collar." Lin Ran realized that he was careless and did not expect that there were other mosquitoes in the tomb.
For some reason, no one else felt it, but Wang Jinpeng's neck was red from his scratches.
Wang Jinpeng looked at the indifference of others and asked strangely:
"Does this mosquito only bite me?"
Lin Ran smiled and said: "Maybe because you are bigger, you are an easy target."
"Isn't this mosquito poisonous? It turned out pus all at once." Wang Jinpeng scratched a bag, his hands were sticky, and then he wiped it off on his clothes regardless of whether it was dirty or not.
"It's probably a poisonous mosquito. Don't worry too much." Guan Yun took a look and said, "When I was performing tasks in the dense forest, I often encountered this kind of mosquito. As long as there are no other infectious people around, you will be fine."
"That's good, I'm the only one in my family." Wang Jinpeng pulled up his collar, waved the torch at the mosquitoes next to him, and cursed: "Get out of here, aren't such big monsters enough for you to suck blood? ?”
"Haha, the monster's skin is thick. I'm afraid the mosquito has been hungry for a long time." Lin Ran smiled.
However, organisms must live where there is food, and the same goes for mosquitoes.
Judging from the monster tentacles they chopped off, the monster's skin was very thick and obviously not something ordinary mosquitoes could break through.
This means that there are other creatures near the underground river.
They quickly came to the shore where the monster dived into the water, and frowned as they looked at the thick lines drawn by the green blood on the ground.
"What should we do now? Wait here for it to come out and kill it?" Guan Yun kept holding a gun in his hand, waiting for the monster to appear.
It looks like a monster that attacks people with its tentacles, somewhat similar to an octopus.
"If he doesn't come out, we can leave him alone for now." Lin Ran looked at the calm water.
This underground river should be directly connected to the river in the village.
Lin Ran felt a little disgusted when he thought that the water that the villagers usually drank came from the river where the monster lived.
"You mean you can swim out of this river?" Guan Yun looked up at the top.
As they moved forward, the top became more and more empty. It was only about six meters high just now, but now it was more than ten meters high.
"Then why doesn't the monster leave the cave? Isn't there a lot of food outside?" Wang Jinpeng asked. If the river is connected and the monster is an aquatic creature, there is no reason to be trapped by a stone door.
Lin Ran shook his head: "Since the other party can trap it, it must be fully prepared. I think there are two possibilities. Either the monster is afraid of light, or there is a mechanism in the river that can prevent it from going out."
Lin Ran then said: "Don't keep thinking about monsters, let's move on."
"I thought you came in just to take care of the monsters." Wang Jinpeng said with a smile.
"How is it possible? Our purpose is to find out the secrets of the underground ruins." Lin Ran categorically denied, "If it is really to destroy the monsters, we might as well go back and prepare some firepower, such as detonators and electric shockers. The ancients cannot deal with it, but modern technology has a lot of it. Ways to deal with it.”
They stood on the left side of the underground river and walked forward.
After walking about 50 meters, I saw a cave.
Shining a flashlight towards the inside of the cave, it turned out to be steps.
The steps went straight down, and the bottom couldn't be seen clearly.
The iron rod Lin Ran carried with him had already been given to Liu Jingfeng and the others, so he could only borrow a handle from Wang Jinpeng.
"Don't touch the wall." Lin Ran stood in front of the team, holding a flashlight and shining it back and forth.
Although there should generally be no mechanisms in the main tomb, Lin Ran was confused by this weird tomb, so it was better to be careful.
The four of them followed Lin Ran and walked slowly down.
The steps were all made of bluestone bricks. After walking for five minutes, they smelled a rotten smell coming from inside.
"Could the monster's lair be here?" Wang Jinpeng asked.
Guan Yun also reacted quickly and immediately drew his gun and pointed it at Lin Ran.
At this moment, as long as anything comes out, he will shoot without hesitation.
Lin Ran wasn't sure, but he had to be at the front of the team.
Fortunately, the sneak attack did not appear, and after a while, we reached the bottom.
The empty tomb appeared in front of me.
However, everyone was surprised when they saw the scene in the tomb.
I saw a hanging coffin tied with iron chains in the air on the wall of the tomb chamber.
It turned out to be a hanging coffin!
From a distance, the hanging coffin is made of stone and has strange patterns carved on its periphery.
What was painted on it turned out to be a snake.
This...
These patterns made Lin Ran startled.
This is not the first time I have seen snake totems in tombs, the Holy Tower, the Tomb of Zao...
Now comes another unknown tomb.
As far as Lin Ran could remember, Chinese people had a bad impression of snakes, and there were very few tribes that used snakes as totems.
What was even more surprising was that the snake totem in front of them was exactly the same as the mural they had seen in the holy tower before.
However, others did not think of it.
Instead, Guan Yun sniffed his nose and said, "The rotten smell is coming from the sarcophagus."
"The corpse must be rotting." Wang Jinpeng replied. This was the first time they touched the hanging coffin. They wished that Lao Hei was here. He was sentenced for stealing the hanging coffin.
Entering the tomb, Lin Ran immediately said to Xu Ning, "Xu Ning, go to the hanging coffin. This kind of coffin should open with one push."
Xu Ning nodded and rummaged through his backpack to find his gloves.
Just leave things like mountain climbing to him.
"Jinpeng, go over there and light the candle."
"Hey, Brother Lin, do you believe this too?" Wang Jinpeng joked, he thought Lin Ran didn't believe in evil.
When going down the underground river, Lao Hei insisted on giving him the remaining candle.
"I light candles for other purposes." Lin Ran said, Xu Ning had already put on gloves and climbed up the cliff skillfully.
The mountain wall under the hanging coffin is very steep, and the coffin was pulled up directly. In order to prevent the tomb robbers from alerting the tomb robbers, the walls next to it were polished smooth.
Looking at Xu Ning's skills, Guan Yun praised: "There are people who can climb walls like this. I've learned a lot."
He asked himself that he had never seen such a skilled guy in the army. This group of people was really a hidden dragon and a crouching tiger.
Lin Ran didn't reply to him. After seeing Wang Jinpeng lighting the candle, Xu Ning quickly climbed to the side of the hanging coffin.
After receiving Lin Ran's signal, he jumped onto the hanging coffin.
