Chapter 115 The Endless Stairs
Standing here, Hu Ming felt that he was one step closer to the core of the Ghost Tomb.
For the tombs of the Western Zhou Dynasty to become ghost tombs, there must be some treasures that the craftsmen have poured countless efforts into, and they have spirituality, thus prompting the tombs to give birth to ghosts.
As long as he finds that object, Hu Ming will have a way to crack the ghost tomb.
As long as something like this exists, it will never disappear. The fat man reached out and touched the sarcophagus.
"Why don't we pry open this stone box and see what's inside? If there's any treasure, we'll make a lot of money."
Hu Ming shook his head repeatedly, "Don't think about it, this is a ghost tomb. , that is to say, this thing does not exist in the first place, what else do you want to take out of it?"
Hearing Hu Ming say this, the fat man had to reluctantly take his hand away from the sarcophagus. .
“Damn it, this ghost is really evil. It clearly looks and feels like it exists, but it actually doesn’t exist.”
“The world is so big, there are all kinds of wonders. Okay. , let’s go look for a way out.”
Da Jinya shined the flashlight to the side.
“Isn’t there a passage here?”
Sure enough, next to the coffin, a tunnel appeared, with a row of stone steps sloping downward.
It was unusually dark down there, and even the light of the flashlight couldn't shine very far, as if something had sucked the light away.
“Go down and have a look.”
Hu Ming has the blood of the Golden Dragon, and he can tell at a glance that these stone steps are real and not ghostly illusions.
However, they clearly didn’t see it when they came in before.
It may have been blocked by the illusion of the ghost tomb, but it later changed and was revealed.
It was pitch black on both sides of the stairs, and it was like an abyss on both sides of the stairs.
They walked down for a long distance and entered another tomb.
Hu Bayi held up the flashlight and looked around, and his expression suddenly changed.
“Isn’t this from the Hades Palace we just left?”
Hearing his words, people hurriedly followed him. Look down.
Sarcophagus, murals, strange faces, and domes all come into view one by one.
That’s right, this is the Hades Palace they just left.
But they clearly walked down the passage, how could they return to the same place?
"What the hell is going on? Did we encounter a ghost and hit the wall?", the fat man cursed.
“Let’s go back and have a look.” Hu Ming’s eyes flashed. He has the blood of the golden dragon and can break through illusions and see clearly.
He carved a scratch on the steps with his machete and started walking back.
This place was so evil that the four of them did not dare to separate. After walking forward for a while, they entered the Hades Hall again.
"Hey, we're back again."
The surroundings were still the same. Hu Ming held up a flashlight and looked at it, and saw that the scratches he had made just now were still there.
In other words, there are no two identical halls of Hades. They have been wandering around in the same hall.
However, Hu Ming and others did not leave the stairs and step into the Hades Palace. After all, everyone could see that there was something wrong here.
But no matter whether they walked down or up the stone steps, they eventually returned to the same place.
This was really evil. Hu Ming couldn't help but frown slightly. At this moment, Big Gold Tooth made another discovery.
"Master Ming, look at the sarcophagus over there. There is another stone step." Hu Ming looked along the direction of the big gold tooth.
Sure enough, next to the sarcophagus, at some point, a stone step descending appeared inexplicably.
Hu Ming shined a flashlight, and the light technique seemed to be swallowed up by darkness. There was a black hole a few meters away, making it difficult to see clearly. The fat man could no longer calm down. He was already afraid of heights, and he became even more panicked when this happened again.
"Damn it, there really is a ghost in this ancient tomb. Why is there another stone staircase popping up now?"
As he said this, he walked up the stone steps. Hu Ming saw this. , and followed him.
Hu Bayi and Da Jinya also followed closely. After walking for more than ten minutes, Hu Ming felt something was wrong.
Not long after descending the stone steps, Hu Ming deliberately used a machete to carve a scratch next to the special mark on the stone steps.
While walking at this time, Hu Ming discovered the scratches he had made again.
That is, they are essentially going in circles.
If we keep walking like this, we will never reach the end even if we are exhausted.
Hu Ming told the other three people about the situation, and they turned around and walked up.
It is easier to go down via the stone steps but harder to come up.
A few people ran all the way and walked for a long time. The stone steps seemed to be endless and they could not reach the end.
Hu Ming's body had been strengthened, so there was no problem, but the other three were all panting from exhaustion.
Especially Da Jinya, he has been staying in Sijiu City, how could he have suffered so much.
At this moment, there was a whistling sound in his throat, as if a strong wind was blowing.
Hu Ming stopped. The fat man was very tired, but he just wanted to escape and was unwilling to give up.
Seeing Hu Ming stop, he shouted: "Mingzi, why did you stop? Hurry up, even if I am exhausted, I have to get out of this ghost place."
Hu understood him and said, "Just leave like this. Even if you are exhausted, you still won't be able to get out."
The fat man was stunned for a moment. After walking for such a long time, he was already anxious. When he heard Li Sheng's words, he suddenly More urgent.
"Mingzi, what is going on? Logically speaking, as far as the distance we came down, we have walked back ten Hades. Why can't we reach the end?"
< br>Hu Ming looked to the side with his flashlight. "This is the scratch I made with a knife before."
The fat man was startled and suddenly realized, "What does Mingzi mean, that we have been spinning in circles?"
Hu Ming nodded, while Hu Bayi was puzzled.
"This is really weird. Just now we were walking down, and now we are climbing up. This is completely different. How can we climb up and then reach the bottom?"
< br>If we say we are on flat ground, we can also say that we are going in circles and getting lost.
But this place is different even up and down. Why did they return to the same place after walking for a while?
“Didn’t we bring ropes? I think it’s better to use ropes to lead them. , several people separated, see if they can go out," Da Jinya suggested.
This place was too weird, and they didn't dare to leave casually, for fear that they would never find anyone again.
Whether it is a flashlight or a candle, it can only illuminate a small distance.
This place is so dark that even the light seems to be absorbed.
Hold a flashlight and you can’t see clearly even a few meters away.
Fortunately, they brought a long rope so that they could hang people down when visiting the tomb.
Some tombs are dug very deep, and there may be natural deep holes. At this time, you need to hook them with a hook, put down the rope, and rely on the rope to climb down.
Under the current situation, there is really no other way to lower the rope.
Hu Ming nodded.
At the moment, several people took out the ropes from their backpacks and connected the ropes together.
