Chapter 245: White Marble Palace
Chapter 245 White Marble Palace
They are not so much a group of black threads, but rather... a condensed version of the river monster.
The monster that capsized the boat in the river was all silver, but these are all black.
Shen Qi didn't understand why the larger and more terrifying creature only capsized their boat but didn't do anything to them.
And these black miniature creatures eat people?
Could it be that one is an aquatic creature and the other is a terrestrial creature?
Shen Qi suddenly felt that her brain was not enough. It seemed that all the biology she had learned in high school was returned to the teacher.
He Yi Ning suddenly rushed over at this moment, grabbed a machete from someone else's hand, and slashed hard at the strong man!
The blade of the knife penetrated the wood, and the entire plank road trembled several times!
I don't know if it was He Yi Ning's domineering power, but those terrifying creatures paused in the air and did not move forward.
He Yi Ning pulled out the machete again and swung it hard again.
Click!
The board, which was more than twenty centimeters thick, finally broke!
The strong man stepped hard again.
The plank road made of priceless golden nanmu wood is falling into pieces like dominoes.
Everyone stood on the top of the mountain, quietly watching the strange creatures falling to the ground as the plank road fell apart.
The black creatures at the bottom of the mountain fell layer by layer, pressing to the bottom layer.
Shen Qi felt that she really couldn't describe how many such terrifying creatures there were at this time.
Densely packed with no gaps.
Those creatures seemed unwilling to be cut off from their retreat, and raised their heads one after another, struggling to rush up to the top of the mountain.
The scene seemed like a person's hair standing up at the same time, making a ferocious roar.
Shocking and disgusting.
Everyone present was silent.
I really don’t know what to say about the situation in front of me.
These monsters howled for a long time, and after confirming that they really couldn't eat those people on the top of the mountain, they finally retreated unwillingly.
The people on the top of the mountain breathed a sigh of relief, and sat down to rest in place.
All my mind was tense just now, so that when I relax now, I feel a sense of loss of strength.
Shen Qi leaned against Liu Yi and sat on the ground. Everyone was passing food and water to replenish their strength.
Although everyone's mobile phones and watches stopped working after entering the underground, Shen Qi could figure out just by the frequency of eating that it should be dark outside at this time.
I don't know if my mother will be anxious if she can't wait for her news in the camp.
Shen Qi leaned on Liu Yi's shoulder and said: "There are more and more strange things here, I really don't know if we can get out of here."
"Don't worry, those are professional tomb robbers. They will definitely find a way." Liu Yi comforted Shen Qi and said, "Your man was so domineering just now! When he swung his knife, those monsters were restrained."
Shen Qi smiled instantly.
At this time, someone ran back from a distance, ran to Thomas and said, "There is a road ahead! There is a small road leading directly to the front."
Thomas immediately stood up from the ground, patted the dust on his body, and said to He Yi Ning and others: "Everyone, let's go! Complete our mission as soon as possible so that we can leave this ghost place as soon as possible!"
He Yi Ning glanced at Shen Qi and Ella and said, "Everyone has been busy all day and finally escaped from danger. It would be better for everyone to take a break."
Thomas touched his hat with a gun, and smiled modestly: "But my gun doesn't agree, what should I do?"
Ella sighed and said, "Yi Ning, stop talking! Let's move on."
Shen Qi also supported Liu Yi to stand up from the ground, and everyone nodded to He Yi Ning, expressing that they had no problem.
"Okay, since everyone has no objections, let's set off." Thomas was very happy that the others cooperated with his orders and took the lead in the direction of the investigation.
Shen Qi and Liu Yi walked side by side, and Liu Yi helped Shen Qi share the weight from time to time.
"Xiao Yi, the further we go, the closer we are to the hinterland. We don't know what will happen in a while. By then, the few of us must be together." When Shen Qi thought of being thrown out of the river, That scene made me feel frightened.
"Okay." Liu Yi nodded: "Let's follow."
It's been a smooth road indeed.
I walked all the way and didn't encounter anything.
Pah pah pah pah——
Suddenly, oil lamps were automatically lit on both sides of the road.
The surrounding environment instantly became bright and prosperous.
Everyone turned off the lighting tools in their hands one after another, and began to look around at the situation in front of them.
Shen Qi saw that this passage was five or six meters wide. The passage was paved with white jade, and there were many small oil lamps hanging on the walls on both sides.
Because of the burning of these small oil lamps, there was a slightly musty smell in the air.
Everyone just paused for a moment and continued to move forward.
As everyone went deeper, the oil lamps ahead lit up one by one.
Liu Yi couldn't help but marveled and said: "Did light sensing and the use of gravity to light oil lamps be invented thousands of years ago?"
Liu Yi's words relaxed the tense atmosphere.
Ella explained: "The wisdom of the ancients is worth learning from modern people in many aspects. The effect of gravity you just mentioned must have made you right. Because the passage here feels our weight, the moment we feel gravity , took the initiative to light a fire, and then ignited these oil lamps."
Liu Yi sighed with emotion: "It's really advanced! But what I'm curious about is, what kind of oil is burning now? This smell doesn't seem to be gasoline or diesel?"
Everyone was silent for a while.
The four thieves explained the problem for Liu Yi: "This is animal fat. In other words, it is oil made from the body fat of creatures that died here."
Everyone shivered violently and stopped talking.
Shen Qi walked forward with the team, and after walking for almost a quarter of an hour, she finally stopped in front of a huge palace.
Shen Qi looked up.
On dozens of floors of white marble steps, a huge and majestic palace appeared in everyone's sight.
"Oh my God! I'm finally here! I finally found it!" Thomas suddenly laughed happily: "I'm about to unlock the secret of eternal life! Hahahaha..."
He Yi Ning raised his phoenix eyes and looked at Ella and Xiaochun.
The latter shook his head at the same time, indicating that it was okay.
Shen Qi saw the interaction between the three people and instantly understood that this palace was probably the key to the central tomb.
It turns out that this palace is not the final destination!
Thomas no longer paid attention to the others, and took the lead and rushed up the steps of the palace.
Shen Qi walked behind. The closer he got to the palace, the more he couldn't help but admire the grandeur of the palace.
The architectural style of the entire palace is completely in line with the mainstream style more than 3,000 years ago.
Chinese-style architecture pays attention to a central axis of symmetry.
It is a kind of symmetrical beauty.
Therefore, it is particularly magnificent and exquisite.
The white marble palace in front of you takes this point to the extreme.
The carvings on the left and right sides are like reflections, perfectly symmetrical.
When Shen Qi and others stepped onto the white jade steps, the oil lamps behind them were extinguished one after another.
The entire palace was brightly lit.
Shen Qi couldn't help but say: "Such a beautiful palace is rare in my life. I have always thought that He Yi Ning's house is gorgeous enough, but compared with the palace in front of me, it pales into insignificance."
Wen Yibo, who was walking aside, couldn't help it anymore and said, "This is not the same type of building at all. Yi Ning's house is designed in a garden style, can it be compared with a palace?"
Shen Qi thought about it for a while, and it seemed to make sense.
He Yi Ning looked back at Shen Qi, his eyes raised slightly: "Like palace-style buildings? Then go back and build one for you!"
Before Shen Qi could speak, Wen Yibo sighed: "To show affection, let's share the occasion."
He Yi Ning and Shen Qi smiled instantly.
Everyone entered the palace at once.
Shen Qi found that the hall was empty, there was nothing.
The white marble carved stone pillar with three adults folded together is not carved with dragons and phoenixes, but with some national totems.
Shen Qi has done little research on these totems, but he can still tell that some totems are believed by many ethnic groups today.
Ella walked in front, reached out and touched the pillar, and said to Thomas: "This is the real entrance. But I can't open this entrance!"
Thomas looked at Ella calmly: "Really? Then what did you destroy before?"
Ella and Xiaochun's expressions changed slightly.
When they destroyed, they were surrounded by their own people...
Could it be that Thomas’s people had sneaked in?
At this time, a man timidly walked up and stood next to Thomas. He suddenly pointed at Shen Qi and said, "That's her! I saw the mural on the wall, and the woman's face is exactly the same as hers!"
Swipe, swipe, swipe... All eyes were instantly focused on Shen Qi.
Shen Qi's face changed slightly, and her tone remained unchanged as she said, "What did you say? That's nonsense!"
Thomas immediately looked at Shen Qi: "No wonder He Yi Ning brought you down. It turns out you have such a role."
He Yi Ning's phoenix eyes swept over Thomas coldly and said, "If you want to touch Xiao Qi, step over my body first."
As soon as he finished speaking, He Yi Ning pulled Shen Qi behind him and directly drew his gun and pointed it at Thomas.
People on both sides followed closely and drew their guns.
The situation between the two gangs is about to break out!
Thomas smiled softly: "Don't be nervous. I don't want to do anything here. I think we can still have a good chat!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Thomas clapped his hands.
Then Shen Ziyao's angry voice came from a corner: "Let me go! You bastards! Let me go! Where are you taking me?"
The next second, Shen Ziyao walked out of a corner with her hands tied.
