"Oh?" Lao Jiang frowned, not knowing what he was thinking of.
Ge Weihan was so curious that he reached out to touch the patterns on the stone pillars, but Lao Jiang quickly stopped him and warned in a low voice: "Don't touch these stone pillars!"
But despite saying this, Lao Jiang drew out the black knife alone and slowly got closer and closer.
I suddenly understood, how can there be a real curse in this world?
There must be something wrong with these stone pillars.
Lao Jiang carefully tapped the pillar with the scabbard of his black knife, as if listening for an echo.
After hearing the response, not to mention Lao Jiang, even I knew that there was 100%25 problem with these huge stone pillars. Because a solid stone pillar weighing tons like this should make a very dull sound when struck.
But it's a little crisp, even a little bit reverberant.
What does this mean?
First of all, these pillars are hollow.
Moreover, it was hollowed out from top to bottom, and something was placed inside.
I immediately looked at Lao Jiang: "Master, what should I do? There seems to be something here!"
Lao Jiang reacted quickly and took the order first: "Pack up the packages and leave immediately. Go to the next place. These pillars have mechanisms."
Then, his eyes swept over everyone: "Everyone, listen! From now on, no one can touch anything in this hall without my permission."
Lao Jiang's face was gloomy, like a dark cloud crawling on his cheeks.
After hearing what he said, everyone realized the seriousness of the problem, and no one dared to disobey it.
Chief Acuo knew that the most important thing now was to leave the temple quickly. He immediately lit the torch and prepared to lead us through the hall and into the tomb passage hidden behind.
However, just as we were about to set off, suddenly, a 'whoosh' sound came from the darkness.
That was the sound of arrows tearing the air!
"Get down quickly, someone is shooting arrows." Chief Acuo was the first to react and threw down Ge Weihan in front of him.
As a top-notch expert in archery, Chief Acuo had an almost subconscious conditioned response to this sound.
Lao Jiang was not behind either. He held Yin Ling'er and me in one hand and huddled behind the stone pillar.
I thought there would be a new round of arrow attacks, either fired by Ussi and the others, or from the chain mechanism in the temple.
However, after we waited for a long time, no new arrows were shot. There was only the one shot just now...
The problem was that the arrow's accuracy was not very good and it didn't hit anyone in the team.
It was just nailed to the face of the ancient Shu warrior carved on the stone pillar.
After the arrow passed, there was no other movement in the darkness in the distance.
I couldn't help but laugh: "Haha, this archery skill is so bad, I can't even do a sneak attack!"
By the light of the Temple of the Sun, we saw that the arrow nailed to the stone pillar was obviously a modern processed crossbow arrow.
The arrow body is very short and the arrowhead is very hard.
Such arrows could not be made in that era of the ancient Shu Kingdom, so it was 100%25 that Wu Xi and his team shot them. Wu Xi only used Gu worms every time he shot. The weapon of that beautiful girl disguised as an old woman in Lei Town It's also a whip, so only Lao Wu is left.
I couldn't help but look at Lao Jiang and said, "Master, it seems that Lao Wu's sword skills are pretty good. How could this arrow miss the mark by a million miles?"
Lao Jiang said to himself: "It's impossible, unless..."
"not good!"
His expression changed from confusion to surprise and finally to fear.
I only heard Lao Jiang yelling: "His target was originally these stone pillars. This arrow was not meant to shoot at us, but to trigger the mechanism on the stone pillars!"
"No way?" I swallowed in fear.
But Lao Jiang's crow's mouth is extremely accurate. We only heard the continuous sound of "bang, dang, dang, dang". On the eight stone pillars, the ancient Shu warriors who had closed their eyes all opened their eyelids in an instant, revealing a pair of black paint. Eye holes painted like abyss.
At this moment, their mouths opened at the same time, aiming at the ground.
Next we saw a horrific scene that we will never forget in this life!
I saw round worms spitting out from the mouth of the statue, still golden yellow, densely packed like a tide, rushing to the ground, making a swishing sound.
At that moment, I felt as if they were crawling on my skin, making me tremble from head to toe and getting goosebumps all over my body.
Crash, clatter, clatter, this is the sound of a swarm of insects.
It's like it's beating on my skull very rhythmically...
Each of these bugs is only about the size of a baby’s fist, but they can’t stand up to their numbers!
That mouth is like a bottomless pit, spitting out continuously.
In just a few seconds, hundreds of golden monsters had been vomited out.
"Let me tell you." Yin Ling'er became more energetic at this time. Not only was she not afraid, but she seemed to have washed away her injustice: "The shiny little bug is the one I saw before!"
"But I saw only one before. Did it bring all its seven aunts and eight aunts with it?"
Looking at Yin Ling'er's big-hearted look, I almost wanted to bite her: "These are the seventh aunt and the eighth aunt. It has called all the eighteen generations of ancestors..."
Unlike Yin Ling'er and I, Patriarch Acuo uttered a thrilling Western word: "Sacred Insect Protecting the Tomb!"
Lao Jiang, Ge Weihan, and I don't even know the names of these bugs, nor do we know how aggressive they are or what their weaknesses are.
Without intelligence, we did not dare to confront them head-on, so we could only retreat around the temple.
The golden swarm of insects followed behind us. The backs of these insects shone with golden light, as if they were wearing a round golden armor.
This is the first time I have seen a golden insect. Although its name is the Holy Insect that Protects the Tomb, after just following us for a while, I knew that these things were not mascots at all.
Because I just saw with my own eyes that they followed us up a white step. The originally white and flawless surface of the step became riddled with holes, and black holes of various sizes appeared.
Some holes even looked like they were burnt, and smoke was still coming out.
"These bugs are corrosive!" I shouted.
There are probably more than a hundred golden beetles chasing us at the moment, and new bugs are being spit out from the stone pillars one after another.
I estimate that these bugs have been dormant in the pillars for thousands of years, so most of them are still in a daze after being spit out.
He dozed off in a daze on the spot.
Otherwise, they will sweep in from all directions in the west. We are determined to: die before leaving the army, which will make the hero burst into tears!
Oh my God, why are there golden monsters in this world?
