Rebirth 81: Being forced into marriage by my sister’s best friend at the beginning

Unless a tomb robber has equipment such as a crane, it would be unrealistic for him to transport the coffin.

So what do these cracks mean?

Lin Ran picked up the flashlight again, but this time, he didn't shine on the cracks, but on the ceiling.

Previously, they only looked at the road under their feet, or at most the surrounding walls, but ignored the ceiling.

Looking up, Lin Ran's expression suddenly changed.

On the ceiling, there are several strange runes carved on it that look like some kind of writing.

But it was definitely not from the Northern Song Dynasty. Lin Ran didn't recognize the characters at all.

He held the flashlight and shone it along the edges of the words, and suddenly noticed a red dot on the middlemost font.

The red one is too obvious.

Lin Ran frowned and looked at the ceiling. Wang Jinpeng noticed Lin Ran's movements and looked at him curiously with his eyes open.

"Brother Lin, what are you looking at?" Wang Jinpeng also raised his head and looked upward.

Seeing this, Wang Jinpeng was also surprised.

"There are paintings on the ceiling!"

"It's not just painting." Lin Ran said to Wang Jinpeng and Xu Ning, "Jinpeng, Xu Ning, can you do me a favor."

Before the two of them could answer, Lin Ran said, "I want to lend you your shoulders. I need to see what's on them."

He vaguely felt that the red bump in the middle of the font was definitely not simple.

The secret space was not too high, only more than three meters. If Lin Ran could step on the shoulders of Wang Jinpeng and Xu Ning, Lin Ran would have a chance to touch the ceiling.

When he shined the light below, he had the feeling that the ceiling of the secret passage was more like a painting than words.

These fonts are arranged in a circle on the ceiling, which is obviously carefully designed.

And when you shine a flashlight on it, you can see that the surrounding fonts are yellow and green, which means that the words on the ceiling are actually made of copper poured inside. Some of the copper has rusted over the long years. A yellow and green scene will appear.

Moreover, if there is no flashlight in the secret passage, it would theoretically be darker than the outer room. In fact, the situation is exactly the opposite. Lin Ran and the others can be described as being blind in the palace, but in the secret passage, they can be in the dark. They saw the silhouette of a person, so they didn't stumble when they were on their way.

This means that there is a gap in the dark passage, leading to a place with light!

Light is a kind of energy and a kind of particle. As long as there is a gap, the light will penetrate into the room and spread out.

This is also the reason why Lin Ran decided to return to the bottom, maybe he can find a way to the outside world here.

Wang Jinpeng and Xu Ning squatted down and let Lin Ran stand on top of them. Lin Ran could touch the bottom of the ceiling with his hands.

There was indeed something wrong with the red dot. Lin Ran felt that it was not a stone, but an active button.

However, due to its age and disrepair, Lin Ran couldn't do anything even if he tried to push or press it.

It's not easy to control your balance when standing on the shoulders of two people, so the amount of force you can use is limited.

"Brother Lin, please be steady." Wang Jinpeng, who was standing below, could feel Lin Ran's body shaking slightly. He was really afraid that Lin Ran would accidentally fall off their shoulders. Falling from this height was not a big deal. Just for fun.

Lin Ran whispered: "Just hold on."

He felt it was because of the height difference, so he stood on tiptoes and poked the red dot with his hand.

It's strange. You can clearly feel that the red dot is moving, and you can feel a slight vibration when you touch it with your hand.

But I can't find a specific way to use it.

But at this time, something even more terrifying happened.

Lin Ran stood at a height and heard it really clearly.

There was the sound of footsteps coming from behind.

Da da da

In the secret passage, the footsteps were very obvious, and the number was not large. There should only be two or three monsters approaching their location.

They have ways to deal with it, but once they fight monsters, more monsters will follow!

They will die without a place to bury them!

Lin Ran felt anxious and tried his best to tell himself to calm down.

This is not a modern switch, but a mechanism of the Northern Song Dynasty...

No, even if it is not an agency in the Northern Song Dynasty, it is not the same concept as the current agency.

Lin Ran suddenly opened his eyes wide.

Don’t use conventional thinking!

In his mind, he recalled the countless mechanisms he had seen. The underground world was different from the human world.

Rather, everything they encountered was currently the other way around.

Now I finally remember why I thought the bridge was weird.

Although the three words "Naihe Bridge" are in regular script, if you think about it carefully, it is clearly the other way around, like a mirror world!

White "stars", gray strange frogs, black giant snakes, and monsters.

Just think in reverse.

After Lin Ran made his decision, he immediately grabbed the "button" on it with his hand and pulled it down hard.

"It really has a mechanism!"

Rumble.

Lin Ran's face hardened. It was his original intention to trigger the mechanism, but the loud sound of the mechanism turning was an obvious side effect!

He immediately slipped off the shoulders of the two people, and the others also stood up and looked at the movement on the wall.

Everyone's heart was in their throats, because outside, the monster's footsteps obviously sped up!

On the wall they faced, the cracks on the ground began to gradually spread. At first, they were only big enough for an ordinary adult to pass through, but they gradually began to move to both sides.

Soon, the walls began to recede to both sides, and another secret door opened, and the sound of gurgling water could be heard inside. It was a passage!

"Hurry in!" Lin Ran shouted. In fact, others would do the same without his instructions.

The running sound behind him became louder and louder. Not only did the speed increase, but the number of monsters also increased.

Being surrounded by monsters in a place like this, even if they have weapons, they will die as hard as they can.

After entering behind the secret door, Lin Ran did not run forward in a hurry, but looked around for traps.

The door must be closed!

This thought appeared in Lin Ran's mind. If it can be opened from the outside, it can definitely be closed from the inside!

Lin Ran vaguely felt that this door had obviously been opened before, so strange traces were left.

"Damn it, I can't find it..." Lin Ran looked around with a flashlight. Was he really going to race against the monster here?

It's not realistic outside. The lighting in the ancient tomb is poor and the conditions on the ground are unfamiliar. Racing with monsters here is tantamount to seeking death.

But you can only treat a dead horse as a living horse doctor.

When he was about to turn around and run away, a vicious voice came from beside him.

"You guys have attracted monsters to me again!"

Looking back, I saw a 1.9-meter-tall man with a scar on his face, leading seven or eight men, looking at them with blunderbuss and knives.
