Chapter 1288: Confusion
After returning to the starting point, the others suddenly lost confidence and sat down against the wall listlessly.
Familiar place, familiar entrance to the passage, except for the longevity candle lit up in the passage on the left, everything is as before.
Wang Jinpeng almost lay down. He was so tired that even Lao Hei felt a little exhausted.
"I can't do it anymore, Brother Lin, I have to take a nap." Wang Jinpeng closed his eyes.
As cheerful as he is, he also shows some despair, not to mention other people, like ants on a hot pot.
Lin Ran also felt a little weak physically. It was strange. He was full of confidence in his mental power and it was impossible to be frightened. In addition to the looping corridor, there must be other weird things in this cave.
He couldn't give up, so he stood and looked at the two caves again.
In Taoist culture, life and death depend on each other, and blessings and disasters depend on each other. At this time, Lin Ran finally understood the meaning of this sentence.
This is too confusing. It turns out that the real doors of life and death are actually interconnected. From the outside, no matter which hole they enter through, they will eventually come out from another hole.
As the saying goes, if you are full of energy, you will decline again, and you will be exhausted after three times.
Lao Hei also noticed something was wrong, but he still managed to pull himself together and said to Lin Ran: "Brother Lin, how about we take a look through the opposite door?"
The corner of Wang Jinpeng's mouth trembled slightly: "Old Hei, don't you think that by entering through the death door, we can leave this damn tomb?"
He now somewhat understood why he smelled the smell coming from the Death Door in the first place. It was not because there was something wrong with his sense of smell, but because the two caves were clearly connected.
It's not that he gave up on himself, but that his physical strength was a bit unbearable.
"How to get out" has become the problem they must face now.
Others were more or less infected by the atmosphere and felt a little depressed.
At this time, Lin Ran felt that the tomb suddenly became dark, just for a moment.
Wang Jinpeng rubbed his eyes, stood up and looked around. Even though he was exhausted, he still didn't want to die here. His survival instinct forced him to stand up.
However, it was just a moment of doubt.
He said to himself: "Is it the wind again?"
After all, the longevity lamp is a candle, and it may become dim temporarily when the wind passes by.
It also reflects their current state of mind, which is particularly easy for them to take advantage of others.
Xu Ning responded, and then asked cautiously: "Are you feeling particularly sleepy?"
"Didn't you see that I almost lay down just now?" Wang Jinpeng must have fallen asleep now if he hadn't been startled just now.
Lin Ran said: "Yeah, I think there are other things in the tomb."
"Brother Lin, do you think this is a dead end?" Wang Jinpeng sat against the wall, looked at the ceiling, and smiled bitterly, "Is it possible that this is a trap, so even if I am trapped here, outside The guy is not in a hurry."
"Aren't you in a hurry?" Xu Ning looked towards the stone door. At some point, the knocking sound outside had disappeared.
It is indeed possible that, as Wang Jinpeng said, they knew they would be trapped and died here, so they were not in a hurry to track them.
As for their identity, they should protect the existence of ancient tombs or ancient cities.
Lin Ran tried his best to push away all sleepiness and distractions and think hard.
Observing the surrounding environment, it is empty except for the uniform floor tiles and wall tiles.
Could it be that the real exit is actually on the ground or on the wall?Then the construction of this ancient tomb was too labor-intensive, layer after layer. Could it be that there are still cavemen in China?
The legendary cavemen are creatures with no eyes, their bodies are covered with thin scales, and they can build cities and towns underground.
But he immediately put this idea out of his mind. If they were really cavemen, and the ancient city was the environment where they lived, it couldn't be an empty city, and they should have been aware of their existence long ago.
The appearance of these weirdos clearly occurred after they entered the palace and triggered the mechanism.
Is this directly related?
Lin Ran stared at the wall in front of him. At this moment, he suddenly noticed an abnormality.
In the corner of the wall, a dark figure appeared.
Although they now have flashlights and weak candlelight for illumination, no one is standing in a position to block the light. Why are there black shadows?
Even Lin Ran was shocked when he saw the strange scene in front of him.
He pointed at the black shadow and said, "What is that?"
"Fuck!" Wang Jinpeng, who was already in a state of panic, immediately stood up with a shovel when he saw the black shadow.
But just after he stood up, the black shadow disappeared instantly, as if it didn't exist.
Xu Ning turned pale with fright, and Wang Jinpeng and Lao Hei also looked particularly shocked.
"Are we dazzled?" Lao Hei said tremblingly.
Because just now, he also saw a black shadow, and it was in the shape of a human.
But looking in the direction of the shadow, there was nothing there, and now the shadow disappeared out of thin air.
They had an idea in their mind.
Is it really...a ghost?
Having been in the tomb for many years, Tufuzi has many rules. For example, candles must be lit before opening the coffin. For example, after a teammate dies, the ancient tomb cannot be set foot again. These are the rules left by the predecessors, even Lao Hei and Hei who joined the industry halfway. Wang Jinpeng will also comply.
However, no one has actually seen ghosts, but agencies have seen quite a few.
The rice dumplings they saw earlier were the limit of what they had seen. Unexpectedly, there were even more terrifying ones.
"How long have we been in the cave?" Lin Ran suddenly thought of something.
"Don't you have a watch?" Wang Jinpeng looked at Lin Ran and asked doubtfully.
Lin Ran nodded, this was what he was confused about.
They entered through the Sheng Gate and walked for about half an hour until they encountered a strange corpse, and then they quickened their pace.
Added up, it should take about an hour in total.
But the watch in his hand now showed that they had been inside for six hours.
There is a deviation in time.
It was obviously two hours at most, to be precise, only about an hour, but it turned into six hours.
Lin Ran frowned, could they still travel through time and space?
In some cases, clocks may indeed deviate due to chaotic magnetic fields, but his is a quartz watch, which is designed to deal with chaotic magnetic fields. How could it be affected?
Moreover, he has a habit of checking the time carefully before exploring.
It's [-]:[-] now. When I went in, it was only [-]:[-]. Where did the extra time go?
