1044. Mummy
Ever since I first peeked at Jueluo Hall, there seems to be an invisible magic power here. The more mysterious and strange it is, the more it attracts me. Maybe I have entered too many ancient tombs. This feeling
They are getting stronger and stronger. I wonder if the former Colonel Mojin is also like this. He has a natural keen sense of smell for artifacts and ancient corpses, but this keen intuition leads them to the edge of death step by step. And
Little by little, I transformed into the tomb robber who touches gold and fights instead. Although I have warned my companions and myself countless times that we only touch gold and never fight, but somehow I am getting far away from this mysterious and distant place.
Career is getting closer.
"Come out! If you don't come out, I'll shoot you!" I shouted to encourage myself, but the guy behind the dragon pillar didn't seem to have any reaction.
I reached out to Meihui for a military glow stick and threw it at the black figure behind the pillar. Then I stepped over and pointed the gun at the thing. The guy finally appeared under the long green light of the glow stick.
I didn't dare to relax. I held the gun in one hand and gestured to Meihui with the other hand, asking them to come over quickly.
Meihui held the Tibetan knife in her hand and dragged Caifeng Gege to surround her from the other side. When she looked up and saw the thing behind the pillar, Caifeng turned her head in fear and hid behind Meihui.
It was a mummy, and the mummy was hung on the back side of the Panlong Pillar. I don’t know if it was intentional by the craftsmen when the Jueluo Hall was built, or it was a coincidence. The dragon’s head happened to be on the back, and the head of the mummy also happened to be hung on the dragon’s head.
In this position, the golden dragon has its mouth wide open, as if it is biting the head of a dead body, which makes people think a lot.
The dead body was dressed in black, and the flesh and blood had dried up and turned into a mummy. I gave Meihui a look, and Meihui understood. She stepped forward little by little and used the tip of the hidden knife to remove the mask covering the face of the man in black.
Covered in black cloth, the face of the mummy has long since disappeared. Its cheeks are flat, its skin is gray, and its eyes are looking at us like dead fish.
In the past, we used to judge the age of a dead body based on his clothes, but this set of black clothes really has no characteristics. Whether it is from the previous dynasty or modern times, even Haiyue was dressed in black yesterday. It is really difficult to judge whether he is dead or not.
In what year and month.
Meihui was already very experienced and asked me: "Brother, let me get him down. He probably has a life card on him, right? It's hard for me to find him if it's hanging like this!"
I nodded: "Be careful, first check if there is any mechanism at the dragon's mouth."
A rope was tied around the neck of the dead body, and the other end of the rope was hung on the fang in the huge mouth of the golden dragon. Meihui tapped the pure gold dragon tooth with the tip of the Tibetan knife. There was no abnormal movement in the dragon tooth. She
Afraid that the corpse would fall to the ground and break into pieces, I rolled up the trousers of the mummy and saw that the legs of the mummy were also wrapped in a layer of shriveled flesh. I felt relieved and cut the rope tied around the neck.
The body fell down, but I saw the dragon's teeth that had hung the body for many years bounce upward. I thought it was some kind of mechanism, and I quickly called the two girls to get down.
But I could lie on the pine stone slab in the main hall for a minute without seeing any mechanical arrows or crossbows in the darkness to the left and right. Then I felt relieved and stood up. But at this moment, the indescribable feeling of depression in my heart was obviously stronger.
