Screaming Cycle (Infinite Flow) - Chapter 302
Although Dong Jing said so confidently, when it comes to finding it, it is still much more difficult than everyone imagined.
The old maps did not have so many precise measurements, and they were drawn by the recorder himself based on memory and guesswork.
Moreover, the tomb of the former dynasty was built a thousand years ago. After more than ten centuries of wind, water, sun and rain, the geographical environment will change more or less. The earthen mounds and stone inscriptions on the ground may be different. It has long been annihilated among the overgrown vegetation, and it is difficult to find it with the naked eye.
Dong Jing opened the copy drawn on the map left by the ancestors. The three masters and servants gathered around and compared them for a long time before pointing towards the front peak of Lishan Mountain, “It should be in this mountain!”
What else can Ji Lu and Ren Jianmo say? The two who knew nothing about Xunlong’s acupuncture points had to silently click “follow”.
As for Elena, because there is a language gap with most of the people in the team, during this period of time, she only roughly knows that everyone is going to find something in a certain mountain.
As for where the destination is and what it is looking for, the girl is not at all curious.
After experiencing the extreme suffering, Elena was rescued by these oriental people, it was as if she had gone from **** to heaven, and she was so happy that she was indescribable.
Although she still has to run with the team every day, and has to work hard to divination for the Ji thrush, but some people treat her wounds, and she eats and sleeps well, does not beat or scold, even the Dong family master and servant who were not very friendly to her at first, I also gradually accepted her during the time of getting along with her, and also took into account the injuries on her body, and took care of her when she was on the way…
So Jelena doesn’t care where the destination is.
The girl didn’t know that there was an idiom called “Zhien Tubao”, but even if these Orientals wanted to drive her away now, she would never leave.
Even if it was Longtan Tiger’s Den, as long as she was with this group of people, she dared to give her life to make a breakthrough.
It’s just determination. When the group of people walked from early morning to near dusk, and still circled aimlessly in the woods, Elena finally couldn’t help it.
“Excuse me, are you looking for something?”
The red-haired girl lay on the back of a zombie soldier, protruding an arm from its shoulder, and dragged Ji Xiaoniao in front.
“Perhaps, I can help?”
Hearing this, Ji Lu turned his head in surprise, “What did you say?”
Irina repeated again, “I can help you find something.”
These days, Ji Shu had already seen the girl’s divination ability, and immediately stopped everyone, and relayed what Elina had said to others.
It was already 4:20 in the afternoon, and it was dark in a few hours.
According to Jelena’s fortune-telling yesterday, the chasing soldiers of the Holy Court are still some distance away from them. At least today, everyone is still safe.
But when a group of people entered Lishan, they stopped moving long distances, and the chasing soldiers could easily locate them.
Ji Lu doesn’t know how many paladins are chasing them this time, but the safety time left for everyone is definitely not too long. He estimated that at most tomorrow, the chasing troops should be sent up.
Obviously, others feel the same way.
Dong Jing no longer insisted, he simply acknowledged the counsel, and handed over the arduous task of finding the tomb to Elena, “What are you going to do?”
Jelena replied:
“First, tell me the size and shape of the thing you are looking for.”
Everyone looked at each other.
“this……”
Dong Jing was embarrassed and stroked the twisted braid hanging on his shoulders.
The map left by the ancestors for his grandchildren only marked the location of the underground palace, and summarized it only in terms of “occupying a hundred slopes”, but he could not determine the exact size, let alone the specific shape of the underground palace. .
Irina waited for a while, only to get the information they were looking for, “Buried in the ground” and “Large”, which were really useful information from the second youngster of Dong’s family.
“…”
She thought about it and asked another question:
“So, what’s in that underground building? I mean, there are a lot of them, and the above…”
The girl stretched out her hand and gestured around.
“Something different from these flowers and trees.”
Dong Jing’s eyes lit up.
“Someone!”
This time, he answered very decisively, “Many, many people!”
Ji Lu relayed the second master Dong’s answer to Elena, only changing “person” to “corpse.”
“That underground building is the tomb of a former emperor, and many people are buried in it.”
Ji Xiaoniao said:
“There should be tens of thousands of corpses inside.”
When Elena heard the number “tens of thousands”, her eyes widened in surprise, and quickly relieved, nodded, and then asked:
“Are there any characteristics of those corpses?”
Ji Lu Ning eyebrows pondered for a moment, and suddenly remembered the reason that Dong’s Second Young Master had mentioned when he wanted to enter Lishan:
“The corpses in the tomb are all wearing armor and holding weapons.”
Jelena’s eyes lit up, “Are those armors and weapons made of metal?”
Anyway, Ji Xiaoniao couldn’t think of any other materials that could make those two things, so he nodded.
“That’s it.”
The girl smiled, “I need two metal rods with the same length, preferably an ‘L’ shape, the longer the better.”
Uncle Zhong took out two iron pokers from his carry-on luggage, smashed them into an “L” shape, and handed them to Elena.
Then they saw the girl holding the short end of an L-shaped stick in each hand, laying it flat on her chest, with the long end pointing straight ahead, and the two sticks kept parallel to each other.
After more than a week of treatment and recuperation, most of the wound on Jelena’s shoulder has healed. Although the perforated shoulder blade has not healed, it does not affect daily activities too much. At this moment, she was holding the L-shaped stick in her hand very steady, without a trace of tremor, and her expression was very relaxed, with a complete look on her chest.
The three masters and servants of Dong’s house were confused and confused about what the girl was doing.
Ji Lu felt vaguely as if he had seen similar operations in some treasure hunt movie.
I saw Jelena slowly turning around half a circle, and finally facing the southwest, she turned her head and smiled at everyone:
“Here, please follow me.”
&&&&&&&&&
Irina led the way with L-shaped sticks in both hands, and walked in the direction of the most luxuriant trees.
Although the route she took seemed to lead everyone to the depths of the dense forest, they knew the abilities of the red-haired Xiyi witch, and no one questioned her choice, and they just kept silent near her to replace her. Girls open the way.
This walk is another four or five hours.
When the moon reached the middle of the sky, they finally made a discovery.
“Second Young Master, come and see!”
The caster who was walking in the forefront with Irina suddenly yelled.
The crowd immediately surrounded him, and saw Zhuzi half-bending, using a scimitar to cut away a large cluster of climbing plants entwined in front of him.
Under the soft orange light of the rainy night lamp, they saw a large piece of gray-white object exposed behind the cut vine-it turned out to be a tall white marble statue!
I don’t know how long this stone beast has stayed here. It is almost completely blocked by the surrounding lush vegetation. Its body is covered with mottled moss, and its hard surface also has lengths and depths under the strong destructive power of the plant roots. Different cracks, the most obvious one penetrated from the jaw of the stone beast to the back, and a small tree with the thick of a finger grew out of the gap.
But even if the stone beast was severely damaged, Dong Jing was still very excited after seeing it.
“This is a tomb-suppressing beast that only the emperor can use!”
He yelled and looked around at the same time:
“The other one must be nearby, and we will soon enter the imperial tomb!”
Uncle Zhong held the torch and found another stone beast fifty meters away.
It’s a pity that the second town tomb beast could not be beaten by the wind and rain.
“We are very close to our destination.”
Irina was holding two L-shaped sticks, and the long end pointed straight to the front of the line of the two stone beasts. The parallel stick bodies gathered slightly inward, as if the positive and negative poles of the magnet were attracting each other.
A few people suddenly became energetic and decided to work hard to enter the mausoleum before dawn as much as possible.
Fortunately, the moonlight is bright today, and there are rainy night lights. Although everyone is stumbling in the woods, the speed is not too slow.
However, the change happened suddenly at this moment.
“Ahhhhhhhhh!!!”
Uncle Zhong, who had been walking next to Dong Jing, suddenly let out a scream without warning, and the whole person leaped forward and fell straight to the ground, like a sheep having a seizure, and his whole body convulsed.
Young Master Dong Er was startled, and while calling the name of Uncle Zhong, he knelt down and tried to lift him up.
Just as his hand touched Uncle Zhong’s body, a rustling sound suddenly came from the grass. In the next moment, a dim light flashed, something suddenly bounced straight towards the young man. ‘S face shot past.
At the moment of life and death, Dong Jing only had time to raise an arm and block it in front of him.
Hearing the crisp sound of “swish”, the thing that was about to hit Dong Jing suddenly changed its direction in mid-air and fell to the grass with a “puff”.
The Second Young Master of Dong’s family was in a state of horror. He looked down, and his hairs stood upright, and his whole body shuddered.
I saw a large slap-length centipede curled up between the grass blades.
The centipede was black all over, and the back armor was glowing with metallic luster. Only the head section was dark red. At first glance in the dark, it looked like a coagulated blood stain.
“Holy thief!”
Dong Jing took a sip and cursed with hatred.
Their Dong family has been entrenched in Western Xinjiang all the year round, intermarried with the local Miao women for generations. Although the use of guts is not his second master Dong’s expertise, he still knows a lot.
These days they are driving in the wild, and they are sprinkled with Dong’s special insect repellent powder. Snakes, insects, rats and ants are afraid to get close.
From this point of view, this centipede is by no means an ordinary wild poisonous insect, otherwise it would never dare to stand up to the powerful medicinal power of the insect repellent powder and jump out to bite the loyal uncle!
——It’s still careless!
The Second Young Master of Dong Jiao clenched his teeth, and felt extremely regretful in his heart.
The author has something to say:
By the way, the pendant used by Miss Witch and the metal stick are both well-known methods of divination. Both are used for positioning. The former is said to be able to find anything, while the latter is more commonly used to find metal objects when searching for treasures~
Many adventure movies, novels, and comics have been used~
