Chapter 325: The Weird Bronze Casket
Liu Wei raised his eyebrows and asked: "Can't move? Why?"
Cheng Hao stared intently and shook his head slightly, with a bit of uncertainty in his expression. Then he frowned again, stared attentively for a moment, and said:
"I don't feel right! It's best not to move."
Bai Chi didn't look like Cheng Hao was joking, but bronze is just an alloy smelted from different minerals. If there is a real source of danger, it can only be what's in the bronze box. Could it be like Pandora's box?
, what will happen after opening it?
If he hadn't experienced what happened before, he wouldn't have believed that besides being able to kill people, this bronze vessel would be dangerous. But now, even if someone told Bai Chi that there was a fighter jet hidden in the bronze box, Bai Chi would still guess at the possibility.
Bai Chi thought for a while and asked Cheng Hao: "Do you know its origin?"
"I don't know, but I've seen pictures of it!"
The expression on Cheng Hao's face was unpredictable. Liu Wei looked at him intently and seemed to have an idea. He gritted his teeth and turned to Bai Ping and said, "Hit him down!"
"That's what I've been waiting for!" Bai Ping picked up a piece of gravel on the ground.
Bai Chi looked over with his heart raised. Cheng Hao whispered beside Bai Chi: "If something doesn't look right later, remember to run faster."
When Bai Chi heard this, he grabbed the bronze chain tightly, turned around and asked, "What's wrong?"
Cheng Hao shook his head and said:
"I didn't know. Just remember to run faster. I just don't feel good..."
Before he finished speaking, Bai Chi threw a few small stones up. Bai Ping's arm strength was incredible. Bai Chi vaguely saw that the stones under the box were smashed, revealing the bronze box inside.
The bronze box shook, dropped half a meter, and then stopped in the air. Only then did the four of them see that the bronze box was caught by a chain.
But after just a moment of pause, the chain on the bronze box collapsed, bringing with it several rocks and falling towards the crack in the ground.
"Come down!"
At the same time as Bai Ping shouted, Liu Wei took action and knocked on the box with his dagger. He saw that the ancient bronze box immediately changed its trajectory, drew an arc in the air, and threw it towards Bai Chi and Cheng Hao.
.
"So heavy!"
Cheng Hao hugged the chain tightly. Bai Chi quickly stabilized his body and wanted to go over to help. He didn't know how much the bronze box weighed, so Cheng Hao's face turned red. He gritted his teeth and said:
"Don't, don't. Come here! Why is it so heavy?"
Bai Chi was also struggling and squeezed out a few words through his teeth: "Let go!"
Cheng Hao was hanging in mid-air, with a bronze chain wrapped around one hand, and at the end was the slightly shaking bronze box. The distance was too far. He couldn't see the details on it, but Bai Chi could feel an astonishing sense of heaviness and mystery.
Cheng Hao slightly raised his arm a few times, as if he was trying to come up. But the bronze box underneath was almost motionless. Bai Chi gasped in surprise. The bronze box was not that big, and even the two of them couldn't pull it up with their combined strength.
Even if it is a solid lump, it cannot have such a weight. Judging from the volume and mass ratio, the density inside the bronze box must be far higher than any material found on the earth today.
Liu Wei came over and saw something was wrong. He shouted down: "Cheng Hao! Let go!"
Cheng Hao didn't speak. Bai Chi knew that Cheng Hao must be feeling quite bad at this time. After a stalemate for more than ten seconds, Cheng Hao reluctantly spoke: "The chain is wrapped around my hand. I can't pull it out..."
Bai Chi suddenly realized that Cheng Hao's previous action was not to throw the bronze box up, but to pull out the hand that was entangled in the chain. With Cheng Hao's rich experience in the world, he probably understood this thing from the moment it fell.
You can't take it away at all.
Cheng Hao's face turned purple from holding back the pain, and he probably couldn't hold on for long. Bai Ping, who came after him, began to sweat on his forehead and said:
"I pull hard on the chain, you pull your hand away immediately!"
After finishing speaking, Bai Ping roared, and when he exerted force, the veins on his face protruded. Bai Chi followed up by exerting force and shouted: "Stop!"
The bronze chain bounced upward. Bai Chi lowered his head in fear and saw that the bronze box was instantly freed from its restraints, spun around with a whistling sound, and quickly sank into the white mist underground and disappeared. After Liu Wei and Cheng Hao stabilized their bodies, they were immediately stunned.
He breathed a sigh of relief.
As soon as Cheng Hao came up, his face was frighteningly pale. He was breathing heavily, looking slightly absent-mindedly into the underground abyss, and sighed: "It seems that it is destined to miss us."
The color on Liu Wei's face slowly returned, and he asked curiously: "What on earth is this? It's so heavy."
Cheng Hao wiped his sweat and said, "I don't know either! It's just a feeling."
After that, the four people grabbed the bronze chains and crawled into the darkness. When they passed the edge of the crack, Baichi took a special look, but in this environment and height, it was basically difficult to see anything on the ground.
After climbing for about half an hour, we gradually got away from the crack.
Just when Bai Chi thought he would reach the end safely, a burst of explosions suddenly came from behind. Several people thought something had happened and quickly looked back.
Seeing that Cheng Hao's face turned ugly, the moment the voice sounded, Cheng Hao immediately stopped, wrapped his feet around the bronze chain, and said with indescribable urgency in his tone:
"Cover your ears! Hurry!"
Bai Chi, Liu Wei, and Bai Ping didn't know what happened. While they were stunned, they suddenly heard an extremely harsh knocking sound.
"Bang!"
With a sound, there was a roar in Bai Chi's head, and the golden light flickered in front of his eyes. It felt like a stick was stabbed hard on the back of the head. Suddenly, several people were a little confused. Bai Ping looked at Bai Chi blankly, and saw that Bai Chi's nose was bleeding.
When I came out, I suddenly reacted and quickly covered my ears.
The sound of huge metal collision was like someone hitting a discus with a sledgehammer, and the interval was only two or three seconds.
Cheng Hao's face almost sank. At the same time, several people looked back in shock and inexplicably. They saw a ball of magnesium shining directly above the crack, where the bronze box was previously fished out. They watched the white mist on the crack violently roll and thin.
Several people suddenly realized something and were stunned.
Judging from Cheng Hao's reaction, there was something strange about the box.
Cheng Hao frowned and said, "There are ghost noises in the Netherworld Ancient Road."
"Is there a sound in the crack?"
Bai Chi was stunned for a moment, recalling that he had heard some kind of sound in the palace above before. Then several people fell down.
Cheng Hao looked up at Bai Chi and others and said:
"I once heard a legend that someone once entered this ancient tomb, and the disconnected palace is on the ancient road of the underworld. You can hear the shrill sounds in the underground abyss..."
"Who came in first?" Bai Chi asked. He had a feeling, could it be his parents?
Liu Wei also said jokingly at this time:
"I have heard of similar things. It is said that in the early 1950s, when the space race between the United States and Russia was in full swing, the battle for the center of the earth also began. In order to arrive before the old American drilling project,
The plane between the crust and the mantle.
The former Soviet Union once conducted a very bold drilling experiment in the southern part of the country. This project took nearly twenty years and the cave dug out reached a vertical depth of 13,000 meters, making it the deepest known cave in the world.
Many interesting things happened during the drilling process. One of the most impressive ones was that when the drilling depth reached nearly 13,000 meters, a strange sound came from the inside of the drilling well, and the researchers released resistant water into the well.
Temperature microphones, and other similar sensors, record very strange sounds like "human roars". Just like the cries of sinners in hell. And the termination of the plan seems to be related to this...
This crack is equally unfathomable, and it emits a ghostly sound similar to that of the "Earth Telescope". Does that mean that there are really unknown creatures somewhere deep under our feet? Is it the core of this ancient tomb?
The secret is the call from the center of the earth?”
While Bai Chi was thinking wildly, Cheng Hao, who had been silent all this time, suddenly said softly: "Stop talking, look above your head."
As soon as Cheng Hao spoke, the three of them stopped and looked at Cheng Hao, seeing Cheng Hao staring directly above his head.
Liu Wei looked quickly, but the top of his head was covered in darkness and he couldn't see anything. Liu Wei's eyesight was better than Liu Wei's. He suddenly took a breath, and then whispered: "There seems to be a figure?"
There are rocks all over our heads, how could there be anyone there?
Bai Chi immediately became nervous again at the thought of someone crawling in the darkness above his head. He quickly looked above his head carefully.
The height of this crack is about eighty meters. Standing underground, you can basically see the undulating top of the cavity. There is a huge inverted rock diagonally above, and it is pitch black directly above the head.
Liu Wei looked at it carefully and said: "Don't be nervous, it should be a dead person."
Bai Ping shrank his head and looked around, wondering: "There are only four of us, who is up there?"
Bai Chi also felt strange, but seeing that Liu Wei's expression did not seem to be a misunderstanding, he became very confused. At this time, Cheng Hao murmured:
"I understand, it turns out to be here!" Cheng Hao continued:
"Liu Wei, give me the short knife."
Liu Wei almost didn't ask why and handed the dagger to Cheng Hao.
Liu Wei looked down, frowned and said, "I told you to think clearly."
"I have my own plans."
Cheng Hao seemed to have made a big discovery. Emotional colors were rarely seen on an expressive face. Bai Chi was very puzzled, what was wrong with it? According to Cheng Hao, couldn't the thing on it not be a human figure?
Liu Wei thought for a moment and asked: "What are you going to do? Let's talk about it first and pay attention to safety!"
"I know."
Cheng Hao took out a rope and tied it to his body, and said to Bai Chi and the others: "You guys step back first."
This place is more than eighty meters above the ground, and at least seven or eight meters above the head. Baichi retreated and asked, "What are you going to do?"
"You'll know later, don't say anything."
When Cheng Hao saw that the three of them had almost retreated, he raised his head and looked at the huge black rock hanging diagonally upward. Bai Chi immediately understood Cheng Hao's intention and his eyes widened! Cheng Hao must be crazy.
The hanging giant rock was four or five meters away from the four people in a straight line, and it was impossible to jump over it. Moreover, this was not a track and field sport, it was not on flat ground, and there was no sand pit underneath.
Liu Wei murmured: "Fuck..."
"Shh... don't talk!" Cheng Hao stared.
As soon as Cheng Hao finished speaking, he jumped out and stepped on the ground. Bai Chi felt the whole ground shake, and saw Cheng Hao fly out like a cannonball.
The three of them saw a flying white figure at the bottom of the huge rock. They didn't know how much effort they used to kick off a piece of the black rock, and then turned it back above the three of them. At the same time, the wind howled, and then a figure hung in the air.
