Ring of Seven [Online Version]

7:17 Princess Tomb

The three thin monkeys entered the tomb, and they felt as if time had stood still.This tomb passage is so monotonous that there are almost no decorations, not even a pair of murals.There is nothing in the narrow passage.In the still space, it seems that even time has stopped.

The thin monkey said: "Is this place really the tomb of the emperor's relatives? Why does it feel like a cellar in the northeast?" When he said a word, there would be a strange echo, just like there seemed to be a person in the tomb with a strange The tone of voice repeats his words.

Feng Laojiu said: "Indeed, it is different from the place I entered at the beginning, and there is no kerosene... We must not go wrong."

The thin monkey turned around to ask Ye Wei, but found that Ye Wei was gone.He quickly grabbed Feng Laojiu and said, "Damn, that dead fish is gone!"

Suddenly a very dull voice came from behind, Ye Wei said indifferently: "Who are you calling dead fish eye?"

The thin monkey looked behind him, but he didn't see Ye Wei."Where are you?" he asked.

"Look down."

The thin monkey took a look and found that half of Ye Wei's body was stuck on the ground, but his expression still seemed to have nothing to do with him.

Shouhou and Feng Laojiu hurriedly turned their heads, trying to pull Ye Wei up, but Ye Wei stopped him and said, "Don't come close."

Feng Laojiu held the thin monkey, and Ye Wei continued to say flatly: "If you go back, you will touch the mechanism, and then I will be cut in half."

The thin monkey looked at him and asked, "Then what should we do?"

Ye Wei raised his head and looked around, he said, "Go one meter forward, don't get close."

The thin monkey and Feng Laojiu backed away, Ye Wei took a breath, and then he did not support the sides with his hands, but supported the back with difficulty, and went up bit by bit.After he came out, he panted and greeted Shouhou and Feng Laojiu, "Come here, I have something to show you."

Thin Monkey and the others walked back, only to hear a click, and the original gap disappeared.Feng Laojiu and Shouhou looked at the ground, their foreheads were covered with cold sweat, but Ye Wei didn't react much, he took out a belt and said, "Look."

Feng Laojiu looked at the strap and said, "This is a watch strap, and it looks very high-end."

Ye Wei flicked the watch strap, and said calmly: "Casio's watch strap. What hints do you get from it?"

Shouhou and Feng Laojiu lowered their heads, and Shouhou said: "This kind of watch strap is unlikely to be used by girls, and it is also unlikely to be used by old people. And it seems that Uncle Yin doesn't seem to be someone with high-end watches. ..."

Feng Laojiu said: "And Lao Zhao and Gu Lao have turned back in front. They don't seem to be the people who can use such high-end watches." He looked at the other two people and said, "Don't doubt me, I didn't come over here."

Shouhou frowned: "We still only know that there are only six people in Chen Rulan's team, could it be some seventh person?"

Feng Laojiu said: "I don't know, but the possibility is not high, because unless the seventh person who appears here has participated in the past, how could a person suddenly be born in this place where chickens do not lay eggs?"

The thin monkey nodded and said: "Then there are six of them, two died, two ran away, and two came in. Chen Rulan and Uncle Yin finally entered the tomb. But the problem is, they don't know how to use this watch strap. something. Is there a third person coming too?"

Feng Laojiu said: "That's right, but Chen Rulan didn't make it to the end." Suddenly he raised his head and looked at the two of them and said, "Or is it me who didn't enter the ancient tomb in the end?"

Ye Wei only spoke at this time: "Chen Rulan and that old man followed this route. Look carefully, there is a mark made with correction fluid here." After speaking, he pointed to a white mark on the wall and said: " There were indeed three people entering, you can see that Chen Rulan used the word 3 and an arrow to indicate the number of people waiting for them and their direction."

The thin monkey said, "Who is the third person?"

Suddenly, there was the sound of human-like running footsteps in the dark and deep corridor.The voice was very clear. They stopped discussing and stared at the depths of the tunnel with wide eyes, but when the footsteps got closer and closer, the voice disappeared again.

Then they felt as if several figures had passed through the depths of the corridor, but the speed was so fast that they had no time to count how many there were.

The thin monkey drooled and said, "Oh my god, there are really people!"

Ye Wei hid the watch strap in his pocket: "Go on, it's almost eight o'clock."

Just as they moved deeper, the original mechanism was suddenly activated again, and then a pair of feet wearing black thick-soled cloth shoes were exposed on the bluestone floor.The footprints of those feet were small and deep.

When the three of Ye Wei walked out of the corridor and entered a hall similar to a tomb, they finally felt that there was a touch of royal tomb style here.Because the space is finally not as narrow as before.

In this hall, there are many reliefs and statues of various shapes, some of which have hideous faces. For more than 1000 years, they have quietly guarded the two sides of this hall.Ye Wei said: "This is a typical tomb layout in the Southern Dynasties. The development of stone carving funerary objects in the Southern Dynasties was very brilliant. Many things were made of stone. And it is of great significance."

Feng Laojiu looked around and said, "But this place is too desolate? It doesn't feel like a tomb to me."

Ye Wei stopped in his tracks: "No, it's not because of the desolation, but because this Princess Jingde is not a real princess. And this tomb is not a real burial place for her."

The thin monkey said: "Quick, look for it, and see if Chen Rulan left a mark here too."

Ye Wei held a flashlight, and he slowly shone on the surrounding stone walls, and the surrounding murals gradually came into the eyes of the three of them. There were no depictions of life scenes in the murals, but a combination of many very bloody and terrifying patterns, a bit like It is a relief of Mayan sacrifices, many of which are scenes of a high-ranking person sitting upright, while all kinds of horrible massacres are underneath.

While Shouhou and Ye Wei were studying the contents of the relief, Feng Laojiu squatted on the ground in pain, Shouhou quickly pulled him up, Feng Laojiu gritted his teeth and held Shouhou's hand, Shouhou Asking him what's wrong, he looked at the passage and said, "Something... is approaching."

The thin monkey asked nervously, "What?"

Feng Laojiu took Shouhou's hand and said, "I don't know, but I feel scared instinctively, just like before I died. Maybe it's those things..."

Ye Wei looked at the passage, opened his dull eyes and said: "They and the underground gnats have materialized, now we have no way out, going back will be worse than death."

Feng Laojiu stood up straight with difficulty, and said, "What the hell do they want to do?"

Ye Wei said: "Devour us."

The thin monkey said, "Can you hold it?"

Feng Laojiu smiled wryly: "If you can't hold on, you have to hold on."

Ye Wei moved the flashlight quickly, as if he wanted to read all the reliefs, and finally he fixed the flashlight on one of the murals. He said: "She was named a princess because of this."

Feng Laojiu and Skinny Monkey looked along the light, and there was a very terrifying picture engraved on the stone wall. A headless woman threw her head at a man who seemed to be in a high position. The man was obviously very scared.And it seems that seven eyes can be seen behind the woman.

Ye Wei said: "Because of this incident, he was named a princess by Song Ming Emperor Liu Yu. However, after Liu Yu became the emperor, he completely distorted his original personality, and was extremely cruel and even killed his younger brother who shared life and death. It's almost like crazy, some people say he is possessed by evil spirits."

Looking at the picture, the thin monkey felt that the surrounding temperature had dropped a lot. He said, "Then the owner of this tomb is that headless woman? What does she have to do with Liu Yu?"

Ye Wei looked at the murals. He pointed to the last mural and said, "She is the female ghost who appeared in Liu Ziye's dream. He helped Liu Yu get rid of the biggest obstacle, so Liu Yu was able to ascend the throne and become emperor. It can be said that Liu Yu He proclaimed himself emperor because of the support of the Li family, and in the end he frantically killed the heroes, including killing all his relatives and brothers, even Liu Xiu, who shared weal and woe with him, did not escape bad luck."

The thin monkey looked at the mural, the superior man was terrified, his body was haunted by countless ghosts, and the headless female ghost hacked him to death.The picture freezes at the moment when the woman swings the knife. The dead air and gloom are reflected through the cold reflection of the stone wall. The thin monkey is touching his neck. He seems to be able to feel a headless woman standing behind him, holding a huge knife, indifferently. Standing behind him silently.When he looked back unnaturally, he felt that there was something vaguely behind those stone carvings.He walked over quietly with a flashlight, Ye Wei didn't notice the thin monkey's behavior, but concentrated on looking at the reliefs one by one, but the old nine stared at Ye Wei without saying a word, his eyes were full of strangeness.

He sneered and asked, "You know so much after seeing such a mural?"

Ye Wei stopped moving: "You forgot, I said that our ancestors have records about that incident. So I know the origin of this princess."

Feng Laojiu cautiously probed: "What is the relationship between you and the Li clan?"

Ye Wei turned his head, his black eyes stared at Lao Jiu for a long time, and he said, "It doesn't matter."

When the two were in a stalemate, the thin monkey next to them shouted to them: "Come here quickly, there seems to be a problem here."

7:35 Climb to the Fairy Cave

And Chen Hao's group finally arrived at the so-called Dengxian Cave.The wind and snow outside the cave were raging wildly, and the atmosphere inside the cave could be said to have dropped to freezing point.

Zhou Jue looked away first, looked at Fat San and said, "How is Fat San?"

Chen Hao said: "It is estimated that I fainted when I fell down. I have checked that there is no major problem."

Chen Hao looked up: "Where's Lin Xu?"

Zhou Jue's eyes darkened: "He wants me to follow, but he himself..."

Chen Hao seemed to understand Zhou Jue's meaning. He waved his hand and said, "We can't wait, we have to enter, otherwise there will be too little time. We can leave a mark for him here." After speaking, he picked up the equipment and entered.

Zhou Jue grabbed Chen Hao, and he shouted, "Brother Chen."

Chen Hao turned his head, Zhou Jue struggled and said, "You have nothing to hide from me, right?"

Chen Hao frowned slightly, and said, "Why do you say that?"

Zhou Jue said: "Before I was pushed down by Lin Xu in front of me, you still remembered that Cuiniang's coffin was your sister's corpse, so Cuiniang's corpse..."

Chen Hao shook his shoulders a little, but soon he said: "Don't think too much. We don't have time to think about those trivial matters."

Zhou Jue felt his perfunctory and concealment, and his heart was churning. He let go of Chen Hao's hand, clenched his fists and finally asked in a low voice: "Can we get out alive?"

Chen Hao stopped in his tracks: "I don't know, but I hope."

Zhou Jue stared at his back for a long time, and Chen Hao said again: "We have no way out."

At this moment, Fat San groaned in pain, he raised his body with difficulty and asked, "Where is this? Second child?"

Zhou Jue said, "Climbing to the fairy cave."

Fat San held the back of his head and said, "Oh, there is something pulling my rope in front of me, and it fell off after a while, just like a woman's headband..."

Fat San looked at Zhou Jue uneasily, Zhou Jue said, "I know, I saw a strange thing crawling down from above, so we can only continue walking now and get rid of it."

Zhou Jue thought for a while: "Brother Chen, do you still have the ring of seven?"

Chen Hao said, "Yes."

Zhou Jue said: "Isn't this book a reminder of the danger? Let's just keep reading it?"

Chen Hao looked hesitant, and said, "Not now."

Zhou Jue asked, "Why?"

Fat San gave Zhou Jue a wink, telling him to ask the end of this matter. Chen Hao touched his arm and said, "This book can't be opened anymore."

Fat San said: "Didn't you take it out before? Why can't you open it now? Or is there some secret behind what you said earlier?"

Chen Hao looked at Zhou Jue, and Zhou Jue remembered Lin Xu's words again. He didn't know whether to express his position, as if expressing his position now was a choice.Chen Hao saw hesitation in his eyes, he shook his head with a wry smile, and then talked about his arm, Zhou Jue found that Chen Hao's arm had deteriorated further, those black hairs wrapped around his entire arm, and the ends of those hairs had been stuck into his arms. into the pores of Chen Hao's arm, Zhou Jue recalled his dream, he couldn't imagine that Chen Hao hadn't collapsed under such circumstances.

Fat San looked at that arm in surprise, and he stammered, "Hey, what's going on here?"

Chen Hao said: "Since we entered the forest, I found that the hair in the book started to grow wildly. Even if I tore it off or opened the book, those hairs would wrap around me crazily, as if not letting me read. If If you insist on opening it, my arm may be useless, and if the hair has penetrated into my body, then my life will be accounted for."

Zhou Jue looked at the ferocious arm: "Then what should you do?"

Chen Hao put down his sleeves and said, "As long as we complete the ritual in the clay tablet, this is the source of everything. All the dead can rest in peace."

After speaking, he turned on the flashlight, and there were still some weird tools and scrolls left in the cave, and the scrolls shattered when touched.

But they walked around the cave and found no entrance, as if it was just an ordinary cave.

Fat San said dejectedly: "We made a mistake, this is not Dengxian Cave...it's just an ordinary cave. Hey, what a waste of time."

Chen Hao said: "No, this stone wall is completely natural, and there will be no unnecessary things in it, and I also found that the flowers will no longer grow up here."

Zhou Jue looked at the pitted rock walls all around, and said, "But there really is no door."

Chen Hao handed the flashlight to Zhou Jue. He touched the stone wall with both hands and said, "No, the tomb that Guo Pu made for himself must be very complicated, and it must be based on the Five Elements and Eight Diagrams."

Just when the three of them were concentrating on searching for the passage, Zhou Jue discovered that there was actually a human face hanging upside down above the original hole, but that face was pale with only five black holes, and it was so distorted that it was impossible to see any features clearly. The moment it met Zhou Jue's eyes, that pale face suddenly changed into a human face, Zhou Jue seemed to have seen that face somewhere, but he couldn't tell.Then the face immediately retracted.

Zhou Jue suddenly thought that that face seemed to be the distorted face he saw on the computer screen, but whether it was or not, he couldn't be sure for a while.

Chen Hao patted Zhou Jue on the shoulder, and he said, "Look at where these things are stacked."

Zhou Jue came back to his senses, looked at the place Chen Hao was pointing at, and found an iron scale in the north corner.

Chen Hao pointed to the four corners and said: "Iron scales, compasses, close feet, stone hammers...the four directions. Hmph, so it's a trick."

Fat San said: "I understand, this is a cave where the workers who built the tomb used to rest here."

Chen Hao rolled his eyes at him: "You don't want to pass my class after you go back." Fat San seemed to swallow a fly, Zhou Jue looked away, Chen Hao didn't have the heart to chat with them, he said: "Sifang Tiandi Ah, students, these four things are the ruler in the hands of the wood god Jumang, the ruler in the hands of the metal god Rushou, the scale in the hands of the fire god Zhu Rong, and the hammer in the hands of the water god Xuanming."

Chen Hao looked at the four directions, and he added: "But their positions are wrong."

Zhou Jue immediately understood what he meant: "As long as we put these four things back to their original positions, we can go in?"

Chen Hao said with certainty: "That's right, it must be like this, otherwise there are only these four things that stand out the most."

Just when the three of them thought that the matter had finally found their way, there was a loud ringing sound from under the stone wall, which was so messy that it made one's scalp tingle.But the blizzard became even more rampant, and the ghost cry that had subsided sounded again, and it was even crazier than the previous cry, just like the roar of a wild beast.

Zhou Jue and Fat Sandi poked their heads out carefully and looked down. On the gray-white stone wall, there were actually seven people walking in a line. The seven people were all dressed in black robes and wore what must have been very strange hats. The face was covered by the black cloth hanging from the brim of the hat, and the facial features could not be seen clearly. These seven strange people walked on the rock wall upright as if they were walking on flat ground, completely breaking all the gravity of the earth.And the closer they get, the heavier the blood will be, and this blood will arouse all the fear of death in people. As long as they smell that smell, they will lose all sense of resistance and just want to escape.

Fat San shouted in horror: "Chen Hao, come and see. What is that?"

Chen Hao looked down the stone wall, he took a breath, pulled the two of them and said, "Quick, quick, we have to move fast."

After speaking, Chen Hao quickly grabbed the things beside him, and finally they discovered that these things were all connected by a chain.

Chen Hao looked at Zhou Jue and said, "Hurry up, pack your luggage and bring everything. Being caught by them is worse than death."

The chaotic bell was getting closer and closer, Chen Hao grabbed his arm and said, "Help me move quickly, Eastern Heavenly Emperor, Taihao, put the compass in the east, Western Heavenly Emperor, Shaohao, put the ruler in the west."

At this moment they had already heard dull footsteps, sweat was streaming down Chen Hao's forehead, he gritted his teeth and looked at the other two positions: "Northern Heavenly Emperor, Zhuanxu, Hammer, Southern Heavenly Emperor, Yandi, Scale."

At the same time, Zhou Jue has quickly placed the four tools in their respective positions step by step according to Chen Hao's request.But what is unexpected is that the four things have not changed at all after they are put back in their original places.

But the messy ringing of the bell and the approaching blood made Zhou Jue and the three of them flustered. Fat San trembled and hid in the corner of the stone wall, as if he had closed his eyes and waited to die.Zhou Jue also felt that if he went down, he would lose the strength to stand up straight.He leaned against the stone wall helplessly, looking at the entrance of the cave in despair.

Chen Hao was still looking at the things around him, Zhou Jue stared at him with a pale face, suddenly Chen Hao looked up at the top of the cave, and said, "That's right! The middle heavenly emperor, the emperor!"

After speaking, he rushed to the very center of the cave and slammed it hard towards the ground, and then there was a terrifying noise on the ground, the chains were pulled by some force and began to rotate, and a hole appeared in the ground, bottomless.From inside came the sound of rumbling water.The first of the seven had reached the entrance of the cave.The blood energy instantly made this cave full of hostility like a mass grave.

Chen Hao glanced at the entrance of the cave. He threw down all the remaining climbing ropes and shouted, "Jump down quickly. Don't hesitate."

The three fell crazily.They didn't care what was going on below, but when they jumped into that passage, the only thing they felt was a fluke of escaping from heaven.

They slid into the bottom of the cave, and the underground water flooded their chests. The water was icy cold, but at least they were not hurt. They ran forward like crazy, and the water splashed the hair of the three of them. In a corner, looking up at the hole above in horror, there was only the sound of heavy breathing.After at least 10 minutes of this, they found that the monsters did not poke their heads out or jump down.

Zhou Jue was so cold that his teeth chattered and asked, "Why didn't they come down?"

Chen Hao shook his head, he said: "I'm not sure, but this channel is protected by the Five Heavenly Emperor Formation, so it's not so easy for those things to come in."

Fat San trembled and said, "Then they were locked up?"

Chen Hao said: "It's not that simple. These seven ghosts are inextricably linked with Guo Pu. Now they just can't come in temporarily. It seems that Guo Pu has already counted that day. We have to go!"

The light of the flashlight was reflected in the water waves, which looked very gloomy. Chen Hao said: "We don't have Lin Xu to lead the way, and now we have to rely on ourselves. The same is true for Ye Wei."

7:18 Princess Tomb

At this time, Ye Wei and Feng Laojiu heard the call of the thin monkey in the passage of the princess's tomb, and looked over there. He found that the thin monkey was squatting on the ground and picking ashes non-stop.

The two immediately surrounded the past.The thin monkey said, "Look, there is something here."

They found that Skinny Monkey had found a mobile phone with a pink crystal pendant hanging on it. Feng Feng Laojiu said: "This mobile phone seems to be used by women. Could it be Chen Rulan's?"

The thin monkey said dejectedly: "There must be no electricity, it can't be turned on."

Feng Laojiu took the phone and pressed the power button, but unexpectedly the phone turned on.The sudden start-up sound startled the three of them.Feng Laojiu almost dropped the phone on the ground.

The phone's battery is full.

The thin monkey swallowed, and said, "How is it possible? It's been five years?"

But when I turned on the phone, I found that there were no call records, and even the text messages were empty.

Feng Laojiu said quietly: "There are no text messages in it. Could it be that Chen Rulan deleted them all?"

Ye Wei took the mobile phone, and he said: "Leave it alone, take the mobile phone with us and we have to continue to find the way. This is just Xiangtang. Our road is still long."

Feng Laojiu was pinching the phone, he stared at Ye Wei and said, "I suggest Shouhou take this phone."

Ye Wei glanced at Feng Laojiu, Feng Laojiu took out the mobile phone from Ye Wei's hand and handed it to the thin monkey, who took the mobile phone and looked at the two people again, Ye Wei smiled and said: "No problem, let's go."

After Ye Wei turned his head, Feng Laojiu whispered in his ear: "There is a recording in this phone."

The thin monkey looked at Feng Laojiu, Feng Laojiu shook his head, implying that he should keep quiet.The thin monkey squeezed the phone, and the cold touch stimulated his cerebral cortex.He nodded.

The further you go in, the more empty the tomb is. The original feeling of narrowness suddenly disappears, and then there is an endless loneliness.The three people could only hear their own footsteps, and the reliefs had all disappeared when they got here. This is a larger space, and the footsteps produced very ethereal echoes.

The thin monkey said, "We've been doing well so far."

Ye Wei smiled and turned his head: "That's because we haven't entered the main body of the ancient tomb yet."

As soon as he finished speaking, the weak light of the flashlight slowly found a door. There was a very eye-catching crimson pool on the door, and there was a broken camera beside it, which had been smashed to pieces.And on the side of the red trace, there is another string of symbols, with 2 written on it, and two words written behind the word 2: Danger.

The last word of danger was not finished, and it seemed that it was in a hurry, Ye Wei said: "It seems that one of them died here. Could it be that opening this door will trigger the mechanism?"

At this time, they felt that there was a strange sound coming from the door again. It seemed that someone was crying in pain, and the sound was very indistinct.

The thin monkey felt that his collar was covered in cold sweat, and he said, "Is there a living person inside?"

Feng Laojiu held Shouhou's hand and said, "Impossible."

Ye Wei rubbed the marks on the door, he said: "This is blood, it has been dried for a long time. But there is no corpse here."

Suddenly the door was hammered heavily, and they could clearly feel the vibration of the door, there was indeed someone inside the door!

The thin monkey was about to push the door, but suddenly the familiar and ghostly bell sounded in the passage, and then Feng Laojiu took a breath, and screamed: "They are coming...they are coming!"

Ye Wei looked at the passage with his eyes open, and the thin monkey found that there was blood from the corner of his eye. He looked down at the thin monkey, and the thin monkey's brain was unable to think about any problems for a moment, and at this time the knocking sound inside the door It's getting louder.

Ye Wei weakly said softly: "Open the door...don't be caught by them."

Feng Laojiu roared as if out of control, his body began to swell, and black smoke began to emerge from his mouth. He covered his mouth in pain, but it still didn't work.

The thin monkey reached for the latch with trembling hands, and he slowly opened the door.At the same time, the shadows of those strange seven people appeared on the edge of the entrance of Xiangtang.

Black robes, weird hats that have covered the entire face with black cloth...
