Chapter 023 Mysterious Painting
Sang opened his eyes suddenly, and his vision was a little blurry.
It took him a while to see Zhang Qiling on his left and Hei Xiazi on his right. He asked in a weak voice, "Why don't you let me die?"
Zhang Qiling pursed his lips, not avoiding Sang Mo's gaze. He was silent for a few seconds and said, "You're alive, blame me."
This is the kind of talk Sang Mo least wants to hear!
He closed his eyes weakly, and at the same time revealed his inner thoughts.
[Damn it.] 】
After leaving these words, he fell into coma again due to his serious injuries and excessive blood loss.
Hei Xia Zi took his pulse and confirmed that he was just temporarily weak and unconscious. He nodded his chin and said, "It's okay for now, but we need to leave here as soon as possible. It would be best if we could send him to a big hospital for hospitalization."
At this point, Hei Xia Zi felt that this was all nonsense.
With Sang Mo's strong desire to die, how could he be willing to go to the hospital for treatment!
Zhang Qiling looked at him and said, "It's possible."
Sang Mo was seriously injured, and sending him to the hospital for treatment was a normal survival instinct. If Sang Mo refused, the system would detect it!
Given the mutually torturous relationship between the system and Sang Mo, the system may delay the punishment.
The main focus is on the difference between the desire to live and the desire to die. The system doesn't care whether Sang Mo has a desire to live or not, it only cares about Sang Mo's desire to die.
As for whether Sang Mo is willing to go to the hospital and take the person there, why do we need to ask him whether he is willing? Let’s treat the injury first, and we’ll talk about these things later.
Hei Xia Zi obviously understood the deep meaning of the dumb man's words in a very short time. He took off his leather jacket, wrung out the water, and then took off his black vest and wrung out the water.
"Then we have to leave here as soon as possible. This tomb is probably one of the most dangerous. For now, we'll leave it here for later when we have time to explore it."
Zhang Qiling didn't reply. Both of them knew what to do first.
He stood up and began to observe the layout of the tomb. If he wanted to leave this enclosed tomb, he needed to find a mechanism to open the exit.
After Heixiazi put his clothes back on, he prepared to work. As for the unconscious Sang Mo, he let him lie down for the time being. However, before leaving, Heixiazi pulled Sang Mo's sweatshirt over his chest.
Don’t catch a cold before your injury has healed, but Sang Mo had already been soaking in the water, and his clothes were already soaked.
Hei Xiazi sighed, "Dumb, how about we change his clothes first?"
Zhang Qiling was still looking for the mechanism, and he didn't even turn his head. "No need, change it after you go out."
We still don’t know what the mechanism is designed to do, but they are indeed under the water, and if they want to get out they have to enter the water again.
Hei Xia Zi didn't say anything more. The layout of this tomb chamber was somewhat similar to the previous one above, but there were six fewer relief stone pillars. There were only six relief stone pillars here.
Surrounding the bronze coffin in the center, there are some mysterious patterns on the ground beneath the coffin, which looks like a totem.
Hei Xia Zi studied it carefully but couldn't figure out what it was. However, he found the carvings on the lid of the bronze coffin somewhat peculiar.
He pinched his chin and recalled the relief carving on a stone pillar he had seen in the tomb earlier, "a bird with a human face riding on two dragons, with two knots on his head and a willow whip in his hands."
Zhang Qiling said, "Jumang."
The carving on the bronze coffin lid is of Ju Mang.
Then Zhang Qiling said, "In the coffin."
Hei Xia Zi raised his eyebrows. There were no other mechanisms in this tomb, including a mechanism to exit. Right now, only the coffin had not been checked.
He did not doubt what the mute said. The mute was trustworthy in finding the mechanism.
He rolled up his sleeves and said, "Then open the coffin."
Zhang Qiling put the black gold ancient knife back on his back. The two of them walked around the coffin carefully and soon found the mechanism to open the slide.
After confirming the mechanism, Zhang Qiling quickly pressed the mechanism. The coffin lid was designed to be pushed vertically, so only a crackling sound could be heard from the slide, and the situation inside was soon revealed.
The two men stood a little further away, so they could only roughly see that there seemed to be a person lying inside. After they were sure that there was no poisonous gas or corpse gas emanating from the coffin, the two men walked forward to the coffin.
At first glance, I saw a young man lying inside, wearing a dark blue robe made of unknown material. The clothes looked like those from the Warring States Period or even earlier dynasties.
The clothes have not rotted after lying there for such a long time, and the body is also well preserved. If it weren't for the lifeless face that revealed the deadness that should be of a dead person, one would have thought he was a living person.
He had an ink-colored jade pendant tied around his waist, and the pattern on the pendant seemed to be somewhat similar to the mysterious patterns on the ground.
His cheeks were slightly bulging, as if he had something in his mouth.
After looking at the male corpse, Zhang Qiling stretched out his fingers and pinched the male corpse's jaw, revealing a green pill bead in his mouth.
This green bead is the size of a ping-pong ball. After the mouth opens, it automatically floats into the air, and a rich green sheen flows inside the bead.
Zhang Qiling paused slightly. This bead can actually float in the air?
Hei Xia Zi also found it strange. It seemed that they had discovered an incredible treasure when they opened the coffin this time!
The next moment, the pill flew away quickly under the gaze of the two people, and its direction of flight was Sang Mo!
In a flash, the pill flew above Sang Mo's lips, and wisps of thick green mist entered Sang Mo's mouth.
After losing its green luster, the pill bead instantly turned into a transparent bead and fell on Sang Mo's chest.
Zhang Qiling and Hei Xiazi hurried over, confused by this series of accidents. They had been to so many tombs, but this was the first time they had encountered such a situation.
"What's going on? What on earth is that bead? The mist inside just went into his mouth--" When he said this, Hei Xia Zi's fingers that were holding his pulse trembled.
"Dumb, this is way off the mark!"
Zhang Qiling, who was also taking the pulse, said, "......"
The bead that fell on Sang Mo's chest showed a hint of blood color visibly to the naked eye. Looking again, it turned out that the blood stains that had originally stained Sang Mo's body were turning into wisps of blood gas rising into the air, and then being absorbed into the interior of the bead.
The pulse under their fingers was gradually turning into a strong beat, and the two looked at each other and saw something strange in each other's eyes.
"Could this be the truth that the restricted area wants to hide?"
This tomb was deliberately placed underwater, and it seems that certain triggering conditions are required to enter here.
The elixir beads in the bronze coffin can float in the air and even choose their own targets?
The most important thing is that after the green mist entered Sang Mo's mouth, his pulse changed from weak to a normal rate, and he looked like he was not injured at all!
No matter how you think about it, this is bizarre!
Hei Xia Zi used his fingers to push aside the pulled sweatshirt and fixed his eyes on Sang Mo's abdomen.
At the wound that was wrapped in a bandage, some incredible changes seemed to be happening underneath the bandage.
【drop! Unknown energy has been detected repairing the host's injuries! 】
[As expected of the host of this system, the host has great fortune and great opportunities. Congratulations. The host will not die, and I don’t have to be recycled~]
[Host, it’s another day of loving you~]
For a moment, the reminder made everyone silent, "......"
As long as Sang Mo is alive, you don’t care what that unknown energy is, right?
Your crappy system really doesn't worry about Sang Mo's health at all, right?
What if that mysterious energy is a curse? If I repair it now, will it be returned to me with interest in the future?
But when I think of Sang Mo's desire to die, I might as well wish this was a curse.
Thinking of this possibility, Nan Xia Bei Ya fell silent again.
