Grave Robbers 2 Completed

  Twenty-six bronze tripods

  We didn't rush in, because of the lesson from the previous round stone. Everyone just stayed outside the door for a while and shone their flashlights inside for half a day. Except for some stone men and stone horses, nothing else happened, so Wu Liuqi led the way in.

  The space here is very large, and just those chariots and stone horses take up more than half of the space. In addition to these, there are also stone men holding weapons, giving a sense of a military parade, as if all these soldiers were mine, listening to my command at any time.

  Lin Ruoshui didn't pay much attention to these things, she and Wu Liuqi walked through the stone statues, heading towards the farthest end. I felt like I couldn't keep up with them anymore. As we passed by these stone people, I almost had a feeling of time-traveling, as if I would arrive in that era if I continued walking like this, using my identity as a person from the future to help them establish their nation and become a legendary hero.

  What a pity, this thing didn't happen after all, it only existed in my beautiful imagination. Before long, I saw the figure of Lin Ruoshui, they were standing in front of a square stone gate waiting for us, and when they saw us arrive, they just waved their hands and went in.

  I turned back and looked at Mo, she was still following me quietly, nothing else happened, so the two of us quickly walked into the stone gate.

  First entering the line of sight is a bronze tripod, with a body as large as over one meter high and two meters wide, almost like a bronze boat. It's unclear how such a deformed tripod was cast.

  In ancient times, a ding was a large pot for cooking rice or a vessel used in sacrificial rituals. However, with such a massive bronze ding placed here, it's unlikely to be just for eating hot pot. In my opinion, it should have a more significant role in sacrificial rituals. I wonder if Lin Ruoshui shares the same thought as me.

  "This is for sacrifice, let's leave quickly." Lin Ruoshui said. Apparently she and I had the same idea, but I also saw the tense expression on her face, as if she was very afraid of this tripod.

  I have arrived at Dingbian Shang, apart from seeing some incomprehensible inscriptions, I also saw a very rough pattern, which seems to be three people standing there, with the sun on their heads and the earth below, could it be meant to represent the heaven, earth and human concept?

  When I ignored Lin Ruo's advice and leaned my head into the cauldron to take a look, I was shocked to discover that there were three corpses kneeling inside, all of them naked with their hands tied behind their backs. From the bones, it seemed like they had all undergone some kind of transformation. None of them had heads, but their bodies were well-preserved, and each one had a bronze sword inserted into their chest. Seeing the same spot where I had been stabbed, my chest suddenly felt uncomfortable, because I understood that kind of pain.

  "It's fine once you've seen it, let's leave quickly, this isn't a good place." Lin Ruoshui said, at the same time Wu Liuqi had already walked towards the back of the cauldron, searching for a new exit.

  "Ah!" she cried out softly, seemingly also wanting to know what was inside the tripod. She followed my lead and looked in, but due to her height being shorter than mine, plus the unique shape of the bronze tripod, she could only barely see the handles of the three bronze swords.

  When she was supporting the edge of the tripod to stand higher and see more clearly, she accidentally dropped her flashlight into the tripod. At this time, the three bronze swords fell to both sides, one of which was falling in front of Momo. What a coincidence! At that time, Momo was stretching out her hand to grab the flashlight, but she didn't catch it, and just as she withdrew her hand, the hilt of the sword landed in her palm. Thus, Momo picked up the hilt of the sword by chance.

  If she had seen those three corpses before, she would never have touched that sword, but she seemed to be possessed and pulled it out easily.

  I saw Lin Ruoshui's face change, her hands started to tremble slightly, from the moment we entered the tomb, I had never seen her so scared before, as if she had seen something terrifying appear in front of her.

  "Quickly, run!" Lin Ruoshui stuttered a bit, but had already started turning around.

  I went to pull the cauldron, but I heard a burst of "heh heh" sounds coming from it. It seemed like something inside was moving and colliding with the inner wall of the cauldron. At first, the sound was very light, but gradually it turned into a fierce vibration. Mo was so startled by the sudden noise that she threw away the bronze sword in her hand.

  "What are you still dazing about? Hurry up and run!" Lin Ruoshui occasionally used his flashlight to indicate the direction for us.

  I grabbed Mo's hand and chased after Lin Ruoshui, completely ignoring the voices coming from the tripod behind me. I didn't want to know what would come out of that tripod; we had already seen quite a few strange things along the way.

  "Over here, hurry up!" Wu Liuqi shouted at us, pointing at another stone gate, Lin Ruoshui had already crawled inside.

  When I and Momo also crawled in, I heard a crashing sound, as if the bronze cauldron was smashed. How much strength would it take to smash that bronze cauldron? I couldn't imagine, but I heard Wu Liuqi's heavy breathing, he was also afraid, if even he was afraid, then the monster Momo let out was really dangerous.

  We ran along this passage for an unknown length of time, and when we finally stopped, it seemed that we had returned to the location of the three gates before, except that this time was different, those three gates were all closed.

  "How could the door close by itself? Is there someone else here?" Lin Ruoshui asked.

  "Could it be that guy just now?" I also asked.

  "It won't be able to chase us that quickly, and it wouldn't know how to close the doors either. Could it be that the mechanism inside the bronze cauldron is controlling these three doors?" Wu Liuqi thought to himself.

  "Ah! That person is gone!" he exclaimed quietly, pointing at the position of the door.

  It wasn't until then that we discovered the person crushed by the boulder had vanished, and the ground was extremely clean, as if no one had ever died here before. Had the occupant of this tomb cleaned up after itself?

  Four people stood in a row, staring nervously at the three stone gates that were tightly closed, as if they had locked up their own way out. The surroundings suddenly became eerily quiet.
