Chapter 304 Poison
Brother Yaozi’s eyes are so weird that it makes people think a lot.
Although Shunzi was quite dull, she was still shocked by Brother Yaozi. She couldn't help but take a step back and asked stammering: "What's wrong?"
"I need to lend you something to use!"
Brother Yaozi smiled and said, "Take out the sacred object your father left behind, please?"
Shunzi breathed a sigh of relief and quickly took out the palm-sized piece of metal that Luo Songyuan had snatched from the huge stone temple at the foot of the mountain.
Brother Yaozi took the object and rubbed it in his hand. He squinted his eyes slightly and looked confused. After hesitating for a moment, he finally took the piece of metal and tried to insert it into the narrow hole of the tomb door.
However, the metal piece is slightly larger and cannot be inserted at all.
This made Brother Yaozi frown and fell into deep thought.
Zhang Xinya asked: "Do you doubt that this so-called holy object is the key to opening the tomb door?"
"I have to think so."
Brother Yaozi nodded solemnly.
He said, it's very weird here.
A trail for the craftsmen to escape. After the craftsmen came out, they should have made a death door and completely sealed the tomb, but left a trap door. Coupled with the strange behavior of this mysterious ancient country, and then connected with the song sung by the sharks,
People can't help but have a strange thought - this ancient tomb is of great use, and the people from this ancient country will come back!!
If this guess is true, then the key to opening this door must be here!
And the holy temple at the foot of the mountain is really weird. It is completely different from the houses built by the sailors who lived here. It is obviously something from the same era as the ancient tomb. The sailors controlled by the Boli beast are extremely respectful to the megalithic temple.
The beast itself is the tomb guardian beast of this ancient tomb.
When all this is put together, an answer is readily apparent - the sacred objects enshrined in the temple must have a huge relationship with this ancient tomb!!
"Moreover, think carefully about what Luo Songyuan's remnant soul said in his last moments."
Brother Yaozi narrowed his eyes slightly: "He only mentioned two words, one is the top of the mountain, and the other is the insect. There is no need to say more about the insect. This is what he is reminding us that Qi Monkey and others have already been killed by the cub of the Poli beast.
Take control!
Only the top of the mountain made us puzzled at that time.
Looking at it now, the top of the mountain mentioned by Luo Songyuan refers to this ancient tomb!!
When he said the word "mountain top", his eyes were looking straight at the cabin where he lived during his lifetime. It was in that cabin that we found his sailing diary, with this piece in the diary.
Holy object, this reminder is already very straightforward.
It seems that Luo Songyuan and his people must have gone a long way back then, and at least got a glimpse of some of the secrets of this ancient tomb. If nothing unexpected happens, I guess they may have found the main entrance of the ancient tomb, and finally encountered an inexplicable encounter.
All the evil plans were robbed and turned into Yinshan Wen."
Having said this, Brother Yaozi fell into deep thought. He held the sacred object tightly between his fingers and kept trembling slightly. He must be hesitating and struggling in his heart. After a moment of silence, he really couldn't think of an answer. Somewhat
He said irritably: "All kinds of clues are telling me that this sacred object should be the key to the tomb door, but why can't it be inserted in? There must be a mistake somewhere..."
If you want to figure something out, don't be afraid to be more imaginative.
What's more, what Brother Yaozi said connected all the puzzles we had experienced before. It is well-founded and cannot be ignored.
I forced myself to calm down my restless mind. This sacred object was discovered by Luo Songyuan, but he didn't mention how to use it. So, I'm afraid the answer to how to use it is in the megalithic temple. I couldn't help but close my eyes and look back carefully at that time.
Everything I saw when I stepped into the megalithic temple, every furnishing...
In fact, the megalithic temple is extremely simple. Apart from the architectural structure of the temple, the only eye-catching thing is the pile of Obo-like boulders in the center. When piled up, it looks like a burning flame. In front of it is the stone
A stone plate with sacred objects placed on it.
"flame?"
My eyes lit up, and I took the holy object from Brother Yaozi's hand. It can be divided into two parts, the central part is made of iron, and the outer part is made of magnesium!!
If my chemistry teacher didn't lie to me, I remember... magnesium burns!
"Give me the lighter!"
When I said this, Lao Bai's face changed wildly.
"Too reckless!!"
Brother Yaozi also shook his head: "Once it's burned, if we don't guess correctly, we can't restore it, and we can't cross this door!"
“What can man do about destiny ordained by fate?”
I smiled and said: "That's all the clues. Putting this aside, we have no better way. If I fail, it can only mean that God does not allow me to take the Earth Spirit Pearl that was born in the prosperous Tang Dynasty. I have to die."
I bet!!"
Although I smiled calmly, a tomb door made us helpless. I had already become stubborn in my heart. The crazy gambling spirit that almost pushed me to the road of destruction several times came out again, so I risked my own future.
Betting with one's life, under the watchful eyes of Brother Yaozi and Lao Bai, he took out the lighter, placed the holy object on the flame and roasted it gently.
laugh!
A ball of dazzling white light burst out, and I threw the holy object away. After a moment, the flame went out. Among the pile of white magnesium oxide, there was a tree-shaped iron object mixed in. I picked it out casually.
The warmth hadn't dissipated yet and it was a bit hot to my hand. I pinched it a little and immediately put it against the hollow of the tomb door.
The thickness is just right and the size is exactly the same!
I laughed loudly and stuffed the tree-shaped iron piece in at once.
"This ancient country... does have some tricks."
Zhang Xinya looked troubled and couldn't help but say: "An ancient country that preceded the Tang Dynasty actually began to study the characteristics of matter. This has already embarked on the path of modern science. When did modern science truly become enlightened?
It should have started with Newton and the others. It was only a mere three hundred years ago. Even if they coexisted with the Tang Dynasty, they were still a full thousand years ahead of other countries. If they didn't have any problems, who knows what they are now.
what happens……
What are those countries doing at the same time as them? Muhammad is trying to win over believers by saying that there will be ninety-nine virgins waiting in heaven after death!!"
Naturally, Shunzi didn't have time to express these feelings. He looked at the iron piece that was stuffed into the hole eagerly, with a look of reluctance. After all, this was what his father left to him. It was probably his biggest gain from this trip.
After looking for a long time and seeing that I couldn’t take it out, I couldn’t help but said: “But... there is still no response from this door!”
As he said that, he couldn't help but reach out and touch the keyhole. As soon as he touched it, he screamed with an "ouch". His index finger cramped instantly, his face was twisted, and the scream made people go crazy.
There was a white eye on the tip, and the flesh turned into soup in the blink of an eye...
My expression changed dramatically, I pulled him over, immediately turned on the kettle to rinse his fingers, and then I didn’t care if they were clean or not, I grabbed the hem of my shirt and wrapped it around his fingers. I didn’t know what it was, but
It's always a good idea to rinse it off.
Shunzi's screams of pain were almost shrill, and he kept struggling. Brother Yaozi and Wushuang saw the situation and rushed to restrain him.
My hand holding his finger was trembling slightly. Although it was through my clothes, I could clearly feel that it was hard underneath, and the bones were obviously exposed...
What on earth is that thing? It can actually melt away flesh and blood in an instant. If it hadn’t been washed in time, Shunzi’s fingers would have been completely corroded!
Shunzi's screams became weaker and weaker. It seemed that the pain was too much, so I let go of my hand. As expected, the white bones on my fingers were clearly visible.
"Wushuang, help him bandage it."
I sighed and asked Wushuang to help him to one side, and then I leaned over the keyhole and observed it carefully. I saw some transparent liquid flowing out of it. I went up and took a sniff, and the liquid actually exuded a scent.
The smell is similar to alcohol.
Where the liquid flows, the black steel is emitting white foam, which should be corroding the black steel.
I went to look at the crack in the door again, and sure enough, there was similar acid flowing out there.
"I see."
I said: "This strong acid is hidden inside the tomb door. When we insert the key, the strong acid will crack and corrode the joints of the tomb door. Then the tomb door will open naturally. As for the lock,
Strong acid will also overflow from the holes. This is entirely because it has been too old and the sealing in some places is not so good, which is an acid leak."
My master stood in front of the door and looked at it for a moment, and said that this kind of acid is called poison.
There is a river in China called Mianshui, which is located upstream of the Han River in Shaanxi. However, this Miandu has nothing to do with Mianshui. It has something to do with a clan called Qidiao in the past.
The Qidiao family was originally a descendant of the Shennong family, and originally had the surname Jiang. However, when it was passed down to the forty-first generation, they were probably the grandchildren of Boyi and Shuqi. They lived in seclusion to the east of Qishui, and later moved to Qishui in Shangqiu.
Yuan, so he changed his surname.
When the clan passed down to the 51st generation, a more promising child named Qi Mian was born. He had always been ambitious and liked to travel. He once went all the way south and went deep into Yunmengze, which is now Hubei.
In the Jianghan Plain area, Yunmengze in that period was not as prosperous as it is now. It was a completely marshy country. Poisonous insects and miasma were everywhere. Dragons lurked by the waterside, ready to choose people and devour them at any time. It was not suitable for human survival at all, so from
Those who come back from Yun Mengze are all ruthless people.
And this Qi Mian once saw a very special kind of cicada in Yunmengze. This kind of cicada is usually missing, but will appear on the branches every rainy day. He calls it the Yunmeng rain cicada. For this kind of elusive cicada,
He was very interested in these creatures, and later discovered that any big tree where this kind of rain cicada had lived would soon wither and die. After careful observation for a long time, he gradually confirmed that this kind of rain cicada would secrete a kind of secretion on rainy days.
Acid, it is this acid that kills the tree, and cannot hold anything but its waxed skin.
At that time, people did not have the concept of strong acid and weak acid. Because it was Qi Mian who discovered this kind of thing, they called it Mia poison.
However, due to the continuous deposition of sediment brought by the Yangtze River and Han River, the Han River Delta continued to expand, and Yunmengze was gradually dismembered. Many creatures living in it at that time gradually perished due to the destruction of their habitats, including rain cicadas.
, roughly like the bird of prey, it is an extinct ancient creature.
My master said that during the Wei, Jin, Southern and Northern Dynasties, Yunmengze had shrunk by half. At that time, this kind of rain cicada was already very rare. By the time of the complete disintegration of Yunmengze during the Tang and Song Dynasties, the rain cicadas had completely disappeared, with only a few
The writing records the characteristics of this creature.
It seems that there should be a large number of rain cicadas living in this ancient country, and they have already begun to take advantage of this thing early.
Soon, a large amount of white foam began to gush out from the cracks of the nearly perfectly connected tomb door, and the air was filled with a sour smell and a strong smell of alcohol. Not long after, I heard a "crack, bang, bang, bang" sound.
Weird noise.
"The connection between the tomb door is broken!!"
My eyes lit up, I flew up and put my foot on the tomb door. I heard a "bang" sound, and the tomb door fell forward. A long and narrow tomb passage appeared in front of us. When Lao Bai stepped forward, there was actually something inside the tomb passage.
The billowing gray mist is floating out...
Lao Bai came closest, took a big sip, and suddenly narrowed his eyes slightly, his mouth and eyes squinted in pleasure, he jumped up after a moment, and shouted loudly: "Run!!!"
