Chapter 122 Escape


Chapter 122 Escape

When Professor Chen finally climbed to the top of the rope ladder, the descent into the tomb finally came to an end.

At this time, Shirley Yang had already climbed up the rope. Only Chen Ziyan was still standing on the ground. He knew that the most dangerous moment was coming, and he didn't care that Shirley Yang hadn't climbed far out yet, so he quickly grabbed hold. The rope jumped upwards.

When the fall of the tomb stopped, there would inevitably be a huge impact force fed back from the ground due to the inertia of the fall. He did not want to bear the shock in vain.

Boom!

And just a few seconds after Chen Ziyan's feet lifted off the ground, a loud noise came from below them.

Chen Ziyan and others looked down and saw that under the flashlight, the originally neat and thick floor tiles had been broken into pieces, leaving only the sarcophagus in the center intact.

"Let's go! Go back first!"

Chen Ziyan looked back and urged.

Hearing his voice, the others who were startled by the noise and stopped, also knew that now was not the time to explore, so they quickly continued to climb up with all their strength.

Chen Ziyan was also ready to start climbing, but when he looked up, he realized that it was better to wait before moving.

It turns out that he just acted out of reason and jumped a little too high. In addition, Shirley Yang also stopped and looked down. As a result, the distance between the two of them is now hundreds of millions of points, and their positions are quite awkward. .

He remained still for fear of accidentally touching something he shouldn't have touched, and it was even said that he continued to climb up.

Not only Chen Ziyan discovered this problem, but also Shirley Yang who came back to her senses. After she reacted, she quickly stiffened her legs, grabbed the rope and crawled quickly. After leaving a distance, this Then he breathed a sigh of relief.

At that moment, she felt that Chen Ziyan's breath was extremely hot, as if it could penetrate through thick clothes and hit her sartorial muscles. This was a feeling she had never experienced before.

Soon, the remaining people returned to the ground of the stone chamber. At this time, Chen Ziyan had time to ask: "What happened just now? Which of you touched the mechanism?"

No wonder he thought so, he When Shirley Yang and Shirley were in the tomb, nothing happened. Why did this group of people cause the entire tomb to fall down once they got inside?

This is obviously a situation that occurs when a certain mechanism is triggered.

"No one has touched the mechanism. We are only studying the clothing and accessories of the corpse in the ancient coffin. We have not even touched the funerary objects. How could the mechanism be triggered?" Professor Chen gasped.

He was just using the clothing of the corpse in the coffin to explain this knowledge to his students, and his students were listening carefully, so he was very sure that no one touched it.

"What about you, Miss Yang?" After hearing what Professor Chen said, Chen Ziyan ignored the embarrassment just now and looked at Shirley Yang, whose cheeks were slightly red.

Besides Professor Chen and his group, only Shirley Yang was left in the tomb just now. Since it’s not Professor Chen and his friends, then this American girl is the only one left!

Chen Ziyan couldn't help but wonder, could it be that this woman discovered something, so she activated this mechanism?

Facing everyone’s doubtful glances, Shirley Yang Qiang calmed down her somewhat confused thoughts and shook her head: “I have just been taking pictures and recording the contents of the murals, and I have never touched anything in the tomb. "

When Hu Bayi heard that she hadn't touched anything, he couldn't help but said: "That's strange. If it's because of the coffin opening, then the tomb will probably be closed before we arrive. Already fallen.”

He was trying to exonerate Chen Ziyan.

After all, if the reason was not Professor Chen and the others, then the most likely reason was that the coffin was opened.

After all, there must be a reason to trigger something like a mechanism. It can’t just fall into the tomb itself. If that were the case, it wouldn't have been dropped until today.

"It should have nothing to do with the opening of the coffin. As Comrade Xiao Hu said, if the opening of the coffin caused the tomb to fall, then during the time we came down, even Xiao Chen The fall had already happened when Comrade and Shirley were inside." Professor Chen nodded, agreeing with Hu Bayi's statement.

He has experienced many mechanisms in ancient tombs in the past. He knows that most of these mechanisms are real-time in order to maximize the damage. He has never heard of delayed mechanisms in ancient tombs.

"It's useless to talk more. Look at the situation below. It's almost stable now. If we have any questions, we can look for it ourselves." Chen Ziyan took a flashlight and looked down and said.

"Master Chen, why don't we wait a little longer?" Hu Bayi said quickly after hearing that he wanted to go on.

Although the experience just now is not dangerous, it is still scary enough.

The falling feeling of not knowing when to stop made his legs still a little weak.

What's more, even he is like this, let alone other people.

Chen Ziyan glanced at the other people present and found that except for the few people they were talking to, they were still calm, the rest were as if they were lost, and they knew that there was no way to go down for the time being.

"Then go back first and wait until tomorrow to discuss the rest." After thinking about it, Chen Ziyan said.

Since we can’t continue, we can only wait until tomorrow.

As for giving up, he had never thought about it. Not to mention that there were dozens of gold, silver and jade articles in the sarcophagus that he had not taken out. Even Professor Chen and the others would not be able to agree.

It is not easy for this group of scholars who are obsessed with the ancient culture of the Western Regions to encounter such an unexcavated ancient tomb in the Western Regions. They are not willing to give up like this.

No one had any objection to Chen Ziyan’s proposal.

And just when they were planning to call a truce and fight again tomorrow, Wang Kaixuan and Black Glasses, who were supposed to be guarding the wellhead, appeared on the other side of the ancient city ruins.

After tiptoeing his head out from behind a stone wall and taking a look, Wang Kaixuan turned around and asked about the black glasses beside him, and asked in a low voice: "I said glasses, how can there be anyone here? You should Isn’t it a mistake?”

The reason why they came here is very simple. It’s because Black Glasses told Wang Kaixuan that he had deduced the whereabouts of the group of jackals. Someone was hiding and asked the fat man if he wanted to get a big one.

Wang Kaixuan didn't believe him at first. Although he had a good impression of this guy who was also greedy for money and humorous, he didn't forget his identity as a prisoner, so he wouldn't believe his words easily.

What's more, the tone of Black Glasses' words and his frivolous expression made it sound like a joke.

But after waiting for Black Glasses to break down his thoughts to him, Wang Kaixuan actually felt that this was a bit reliable.

Wang Kaixuan could not sit still even more, especially after hearing from Black Glasses that these people might have powerful firearms in their hands.

Firearms are very comfortable to use by yourself, but it is not a good thing if they are in the hands of hostile forces.

So he hesitated again and again, and decided to trust the black glasses for once. Whether he could cause trouble or not was the second priority. Finding out if someone was really lurking here was the more important thing!
