Entertainment Secrets: Playing the role of Qilin, Mimi loves it so much
Chapter 215: Mysterious mechanism, unexpected operation
Ye Bai looked up and saw that the towering stone pillars were covered with skulls, which looked terrifying. The castle was filled with an eerie and gloomy feeling, like a haunted house.
Ye Bai looked around and suddenly found that a thick stone pillar had collapsed on the right and hit a person's feet, cutting the person in half.
Ye Bai walked closer and took a look, only to see that the man's sternum was collapsed, and it was obvious that he had been dead for a long time.
"There's a person here, who died not long ago." Zhang Dada squatted beside the body to examine it. The chest cavity of the corpse was empty, and the ribs were exposed, obviously cut off by a sharp weapon.
Zhang Dada said, "This is a tomb chamber. Those sculptures are not for decoration."
Ye Bai said: "You guessed right, we are going to expose them!"
The group continued to advance, and tombs appeared one after another. In each tomb, they encountered the same situation: being beheaded and slaughtered. Their group dwindled.
Finally, they saw a wooden sign in the fifth tomb, which read "Tomb of the Golden Knight".
"Is this... the burial ground of the Golden Knights?" Yang Mi was shocked.
Ye Bai looked at the words on the wooden board and read them out slowly: "We pursue glory and protect our faith... The mission of the Golden Knights is to defend the Kingdom of Heaven..."
Zhang Dada was horrified and said, "Oh my God, no wonder the architectural style of that palace is so sacred. It turns out to be the ruins of heaven. How could such a place exist here?"
"The Golden Knight's tomb? That doesn't seem very scientific, does it?" Meng Ziyi said. "I've read a lot of historical records, and the Golden Knight's tomb was destroyed long ago. How could it still exist in the world?"
Zhang Dada said: "Maybe... they escaped the curse?"
Ye Bai shook his head. "A Chinese person I know told me that the Golden Knights are cursed by an evil force. When they are about to die, they will summon their own souls to be reborn and gain a new life."
He pointed to the shattered statue in the corner and said, "That statue must be the Golden Knight's physical body. His soul is inside the statue."
"Is this true?" Meng Ziyi widened his eyes, seeming to be unconvinced.
Yang Mi said, "We can take this as a research topic, maybe we can get something out of it."
Zhang Dada asked Ye Bai: "What are you going to do?"
Ye Bai said, "Let's look for the mechanism first. I think it should be set up somewhere."
"Why is there a trap here?" Meng Ziyi asked, "Are you sure?"
Ye Bai nodded. "There are many traps here. It's possible that one is hidden in some corner."
Yang Mi said, "Then hurry up and look for it. Don't waste time."
Ye Bai walked up to the statue, tapped it a few times, and then activated a mechanism. With a rumbling sound, the statue moved away, revealing a passage behind. Everyone followed Ye Bai carefully into the passage, where they saw numerous terracotta warriors and armor piled high, along with scattered gold, silver, jewelry, weapons, and armor.
"Wow! That's a lot of money!" Yang Mi couldn't help but exclaimed excitedly, "Pick it up!" She bent down to pick it up, but accidentally tripped over a doll, which fell to pieces.
Yang Mi was startled and quickly hid behind Zhang Dada, whispering, "Why didn't you support me a little?"
"Hehehe, I forgot." Zhang Dada smiled foolishly and hugged her. The two of them were very close.
Seeing this, the others followed suit. Ye Bai silently picked up the broken pieces of the puppet, held them to his nose, sniffed them, and smiled: "There are toxins remaining in this puppet's body, so it has rotted into ashes."
After hearing this, everyone gathered around to watch.
"What kind of poison is it?" Yang Mi asked.
Ye Bai said: "It is a very special virus."
Zhang Dada asked in confusion: "What virus?"
Ye Bai explained: "This virus can cause cell division failure and produce a variety of diseases. For example, difficulty breathing, cardiac arrest, or fainting, poisoning, convulsions, skin stiffness, etc...."
"Hiss~" Everyone gasped, "How could there be such a powerful virus?"
Ye Bai said: "That's why this virus is so precious. Because it's so poorly transmissible, if it breaks out, it will surely sweep across Asia and even Southeast Asia, and even spread to Europe and the United States. Therefore, its production process is very complicated and requires a large amount of rare materials."
"This puppet must have been created by a certain Golden Knight." Ye Bai continued to speculate, "The statues we encountered outside were all created by this Golden Knight. I estimate that this ancient tomb must have been built by a Golden Knight."
"Then we have to report this matter to the police!" Yang Mi said excitedly.
Ye Bai waved his hand to stop her and said, "No, you'd better not leave here now. If the police suddenly burst in and see us all in the tomb, they will definitely be suspicious."
Yang Mi immediately retorted, "But this virus is very powerful. No one can guarantee whether it will spread."
Ye Bai pondered for a moment and said, "Okay, I promise you, I will help you keep this news secret."
Yang Mi asked again: "Then how should we get out?"
Ye Bai said: "I know there is a secret passage that leads directly to the surface."
"Really?" Yang Mi's eyes lit up. "Where is it?"
Ye Bai led the way, and the group walked forward step by step along the narrow cave carved into the stone wall. When they reached the end of the cave, they saw another corridor. The corridor was lined with oil lamps and torches, as well as many exquisite bronze lamps.
Ye Bai led the group out of the corridor with familiarity. The corridor's exit revealed a vast, gloomy space. Stone houses surrounded the area, each painted with various totems. In the center stood a massive golden statue.
"Where is this place?" Meng Ziyi looked around curiously, "Why does it feel like a church?"
Ye Bai ignored her and walked straight towards the statue. Zhang Dada and Yang Mi followed him nervously, not daring to get close to the statue.
Ye Bai approached the statue and examined it closely. Its face was pale, its lips dark purple, and it looked as if it had been dead for a long time. The clothing on its chest was badly torn, revealing its leather shirt. She squatted down, placed her hands on the statue's shoulders, and turned it over.
There was a line of ancient text engraved on the back of the statue, but it was already blurred. Ye Bai tried to identify it for a long time but still couldn't recognize it.
He frowned and thought for a long time, then suddenly his eyes lit up, "I understand!"
He patted Zhang Dada, motioning him to come closer. "Put on this uniform."
"Oh." Zhang Dada did as he was told and put on his military uniform. He looked even taller and more imposing in the black uniform.
Ye Bai said: "Try running a few laps."
