Chapter 714 Weird
Zhang Tuohai: “???”
It actually dared to scold me!
Is it that I can’t lift the knife anymore, or are you guys getting too proud?
Zhang Tuohai pulled out a black umbrella from behind his back, put it on his shoulder, and knocked on the sarcophagus with a bang.
But the person in the sarcophagus remained silent and kept pretending to be dead.
“Something’s not right.”
Looking at this guy's abnormal behavior, Zhang Tuohai instinctively felt that there must be something wrong.
He thought about it and decided to pass it by first, wanting to see if there was anything he could find in the other sarcophagi.
However, after knocking on seven or eight sarcophagi in a row, either no one said anything or told him to get out through the sarcophagi. No one was willing to come out to see him.
"These guys have no manners."
After knocking on the door and finding nothing, Zhang Tuohai returned to the car dejectedly.
He didn't understand why the corridor on this floor was so strange.
The guards in the first two corridors were determined to stop him even if it meant their deaths. However, when they arrived at this corridor, all the guards suddenly became cowards, hiding in their own rat holes and refusing to come out, allowing him to show off his power outside.
"What on earth is going on here?"
Zhang Tuohai was screwed by these guys.
He could understand if they all rushed up at once, but what did it mean for them to hide in the coffins after seeing him?
Zhang Tuohai has a good habit, which is that if he doesn’t understand something, then he won’t try to figure it out.
Since these guys don't want to cause trouble for him, it saves him a lot of trouble.
It would be best if both could live in peace.
Zhang Tuohai drove the car slowly forward on the corridor, and the heavy tracks made a creaking sound on the basalt road surface.
Looking at the sarcophagi on both sides of the passage , Zhang Tuohai felt as if there were pairs of eyes staring at him from inside, but no one, not even a monster, dared to come out. They just watched quietly and let him pass by.
“It’s really strange.”
Even after walking to the end of the corridor, Zhang Tuohai still didn't understand what those guys in the sarcophagus were doing.
After turning the corner, there was another path in front of Zhang Tuohai.
The two sides of this corridor are lined with various stone sculptures.
The stone sculptures are also carved from black obsidian and feature common wild animals: lions, leopards, crocodiles and the like.
There are also some fantasy monsters such as gargoyles, Amit (crocodile head, lion body, hippo legs), Ba (half man, half bird), griffins (lion head and eagle body), etc. Some are rich in Egyptian style, while others are full of exotic atmosphere.
Although their shapes vary, they are all covered with runes.
"There are runes!"
Seeing the statue covered with runes, Zhang Tuohai was so excited that he couldn't sit still: "Quick, come closer, take pictures of them all for me."
Zhang Tuohai is now particularly concerned about these runes. Ever since Lilith helped him sort out the usage codes of the two black umbrellas, he has become more and more .
As long as there is something related to code, he wants to get his hands on it as much as possible.
In fact, if Zhang Tuohai had a normal personality, he would move all the statues away after seeing them. He would never just take pictures and leave.
However, just as he entered the corridor, he seemed to feel that the lion statue closest to him seemed to move slightly.
When he looked over there, the statue had returned to its normal appearance, as if everything that had just happened was an illusion.
Under normal circumstances, Zhang Tuohai might have thought he was dazzled, but he suddenly remembered the strange appearance of those guys in the corridor on the third floor.
"Could it be that these guys are the same as those on the third floor?"
Zhang Tuohai was secretly guessing in his heart.
In order to verify this guess, Zhang Tuohai took out the black umbrella, used it as a crutch, slowly walked to the front of the lion statue, walked around the lion twice, and then began to stroke the lion statue's head.
It is the unique warm and cool feeling of obsidian.
Although it’s not real, it still feels good to rub the big cat and dog’s head.
Just as Zhang Tuohai was scratching the lion's chin, he suddenly felt a strange sensation on his back.
He turned around suddenly and there was nothing behind him.
There is also a row of obsidian statues and dozens of large oil paintings hanging on the walls.
Zhang Tuohai looked at it bit by bit and suddenly felt that one of the oil paintings looked a little strange.
He originally remembered that there was nothing in these paintings that did not pass the review, but now, the shoulder strap of the woman in the painting in front of him slipped off, and the northern hemisphere covered with snow was clearly visible.
He was sure that there had been no such scene before, otherwise, he would never have forgotten it. This was the instinct of lsp.
He took another serious look at the woman in the painting, and there seemed to be a look of fear on the woman's face.
He opened his mouth slightly, looking as if he wanted to shout but didn't dare.
He looked intently at the oil paintings around him and found that the faces of the people in the paintings seemed to be full of fear, which was slightly different from the pictures he saw at the beginning.
“Interesting.”
Zhang Tuohai looked around, came to the center of the corridor, and tapped the ground lightly with his black umbrella.
Bang bang bang.
Although the sound is not loud, it can make people know clearly that the car has stopped on the quiet corridor.
"I came here for no other reason than to collect some runes. I know you may have some concerns, but as long as you don't make trouble, I definitely don't mean to cause any trouble to you. Once I get what I need, I will leave immediately."
"But if anyone wants to cause trouble, I'm sorry. I'm afraid something will happen that no one wants to see. Do you understand?"
After saying that, Zhang Tuohai looked around. The characters in the paintings were all bowing slightly, and the statues were all lowering their heads slightly, looking submissive.
“It’s getting more and more interesting.”
Zhang Tuohai touched his chin. He felt that things were becoming interesting. The guards on the third and fourth floors were no longer brainless monsters, but individuals who knew how to seek benefits and avoid harm and who could think about their own gains and losses.
One advantage of this for him is that he doesn't need to apply it layer by layer.
It reduces risks, improves efficiency, and increases invisible gains.
I just don’t know why these guys become like . Are they afraid of the black umbrella in my hand, or is there some other reason?
Zhang Tuohai touched his chin and fell into deep thought.
Xiao Ai was very fast and in a short while she had taken pictures of all the runes on the statue.
In order to avoid missing anything, Xiao Ai even carefully turned each statue over to see if there were any hidden runes under the base. The huge oil paintings were also turned over one by one for a comprehensive inspection.
During the process, those guys didn't say a word and let Xiao Ai do whatever she wanted.
After confirming that nothing was missing, Xiao Ai gave Zhang Tuohai a reminder.
"Well, thank you all for your cooperation, we'll see you again someday."
Zhang Tuohai got on the car and headed to the next floor.
