Chapter 212: Mirage


Wu Lin immediately turned sideways and slipped out through the crack of the door like a whirlwind.

Looking at his anxious look, I also knew that I would have to race against time again, so I didn't dare to delay at all and followed Wu Lin out.

As soon as we came out of the stone chamber, Wu Lin and I were immediately involved in the high temperature in the tunnel.

That kind of temperature not only makes us feel hot, but also directly causes the pain that occurs when hot water or hot water is splashed on our skin.

Wu Linren shouted in pain: "We only have two minutes, go quickly."

After saying that, he spread his legs and ran forward as fast as possible.

I could only endure the pain that spread throughout my body, and used all my strength to chase after Wu Lin.

There was so much boiling water pouring into the tunnel just now, but none of the ear lamps on the wall were extinguished.

As the lights flickered, I could already see the exit of the tunnel.

Looking at the tunnel exit from where I am, it is a small black spot with a diameter of two to three millimeters.

In other words, Wu Lin and I were at least nearly a thousand meters away from the exit.

To run such a long distance in two minutes would basically be a world record pace.

My body's various indicators are just close to the limits of the human body, and I have not yet become a superman.

It is simply impossible for me to break the world record at this moment.

But a few seconds later, the sound of rushing water and the sound of boiling water came from the front again.

I suddenly realized what would happen in two minutes.

Driven by the will to survive, I stepped out with a sudden speed.

After improving a lot, Wu Lin also threw away his arms and rushed almost at a speed that I could not imagine.

In such short and medium distance running, he was indeed faster than me.

Gradually, the distance between me and him became wider and wider.

One meter, two meters, four meters, six meters away, I watched Wu Lin's back getting farther and farther away from me, but I couldn't catch up with him even if I lived or died.

At that time, I had no intention of calculating how much time had passed.

I only knew that I was getting closer and closer to the exit, and the sound of rushing water was getting closer and closer to us.

When I was still ten meters away from the exit, I could already see a large area of ​​water reaching the exit.

Wu Lin shouted: "Don't worry about that bitch, rush" Before the final sound of the word "Chong" could even be heard, his figure disappeared right next to the exit.

Seeing this scene, my heart suddenly skipped a beat, but the water was about to pour into the tunnel, so I didn't have time to think about it, so I just kept my head down and rushed forward.

By the time I rushed to the exit of the tunnel, the boiling water coming from the other side was already in front of my face.

To be honest, the first thought in my mind at that time was to retreat quickly.

As long as I could escape from the refuge room, I wouldn't be doomed immediately.

But these two minutes of running at top speed that unleashed all my potential almost exhausted all my strength.

If I turned around and ran back again, I was afraid I wouldn't be able to run back at all.

With no choice left, I roared at the top of my lungs and jumped into the boiling tide.

One-hundred-degree water and steaming vapor instantly enveloped me.

Before they rushed into my eyes, I subconsciously closed my eyelids.

My eyes went dark at first, and then a pale yellow light penetrated my eyelids.

Even the sound of running water disappeared at this moment.

My body lost balance.

First, I quickly fell a short distance, and then my chest fell heavily to the ground.

I felt something hard pressed against my ribs.

I reached out to touch it and opened my eyes quickly.

Open your eyes.

When I opened my eyes, the surrounding golden mountains emitted an extremely brilliant light, which made me lose my mind immediately.

Each of those gold mountains is three or four meters high, and they are all piled up with handicrafts made of gold.

Some gold objects are scattered on the ground, making the ground emit a loose golden light.

In this large space, there is still a strange fragrance unique to the late Han Dynasty.

No one can estimate the total weight of the gold here.

Even if the historical value of the gold is not considered, the value of this gold alone is estimated to be enough to buy a small country.

I just stood there in a daze, looking around for a while before I came back to my senses.

Hahahaha After my mind became a little clearer, the first thing that reached my ears was Wu Lin's violent breathing.

I turned around and saw Wu Lin curled up and kneeling on the ground.

His high-frequency breathing made his back rise and fall crazily.

Looking at him like that, I was really afraid that he would accidentally vomit out his lungs. come out.

Originally, I planned to check how he was doing, but as soon as I took half a step toward him, he raised his hand and kept shaking it at me, which meant that he was fine.

After that, I planned to walk to Jinshan Mountain to look at the gold vessels from the Han and Wei dynasties, but Wu Lin grabbed my ankle and refused to let me go forward.

I looked at him doubtfully, but he was only kneeling on the ground panting and didn't see my eyes.

In his current state, even if I asked him a question, he would not be able to respond.

But even though he was panting like this, the hand he held on to my ankle would not let go for a moment.

In desperation, I could only sit next to him, slowly adjust my breathing, and try to recover from the injuries as soon as possible.

The skin burned by the heat wave and boiling water has now begun to shed layer by layer, and new skin has quickly taken root and sprouted.

In fact, what I am most worried about now is my hair.

Although my scalp has not been burned, but if my hair My hair roots have been burned and will definitely fall out in large quantities, and it will take a long time for new ones to grow.

After all, my self-healing ability does not work on the hair on my body.

I won't leave this place with a half-bald yin and yang head.

Wu Lin gasped for a long time, then lay on his back on the ground again.

His breathing was still urgent and chaotic, but he could already speak: "If I hadn't shouted so loudly when I was about to leave the tunnel, I wouldn't have changed."

It’s like this now.”

His tone was still cold when he spoke, but there was no coldness in his words.

I smiled and nodded at him: "I guess we broke the world record this time."

Wu Lin exhaled a big breath through his mouth and nostrils, and then closed his eyes.

This guy's endurance is indeed not very good.

I have completely rested now, but he doesn't even want to open his eyes.

Of course, there is a comparison in saying that he has poor endurance.

If he ran a thousand meters at the speed just now, he would probably be ruined.

He rested for nearly twenty minutes before slowly sitting up.

During this period, I kept fiddling with my hair.

Fortunately, although almost two layers of skin were peeled off all over my body, the roots of my hair were not greatly affected.

Wu Lin took out the flashlight from behind and fired the beam forward.

In my imagination, after the flashlight beam was projected on the Jinshan Mountain, it should make the surface of the goldware appear more dazzling.

Unexpectedly, the beam of light actually penetrated the Jinshan Mountain and shined directly forward.

After Jinshan was penetrated by the beam, its outline became a little faint, as if it might disappear at any time.

After a short while, Wu Lin turned off the flashlight and said to me: "They are all mirages.

The old scholar once said that in this place, there is a mechanism underneath every mirage.

Once you step on it, you will die."

Yes.

But when we get here, we are not far from the Dingyun Cone."

I looked ahead.

The ground was almost completely covered by mountains of gold and scattered gold objects.

If these things were all mirages, then Wu Lin and I would hit the trap no matter which direction we walked.

But it's also luck.

In this huge space, there is bright gold everywhere, but the small piece of ground under Wu Lin and me is clean.

I raised my chin towards the ground that was almost completely immersed in golden light, and asked Wu Lin: "How to get there?"

A helpless smile appeared on Wu Lin's cold face: "We can only wait for the mirage to disappear.

It's time to take a rest after working hard for so long."

I took a long breath: "When will they disappear?"

Wu Lin spread his hands towards me: "Then I don't know, but it will disappear after all.

Otherwise, how would the old scholar know that there is a mechanism under the mirage?"

I supported the ground with my elbows, half-reclining and half-sitting on the ground, and said what I had been wondering about before: "Who is the old scholar you mentioned, and why does he know so much about things in this dimension?"

You think about it, if he were an ordinary scientist, he wouldn't be able to survive in such an environment, let alone understand every detail here. " Wu Lin shook his head: "To be honest, I have never thought about the things you mentioned.

But it doesn't matter, that guy has been dead for so many years, and what he experienced back then has long been buried with him in the ground. , It’s useless to think so much.”

While he was talking, I saw from the corner of my eye that the golden mountain closest to us suddenly shook twice.

My heart suddenly tightened and I immediately looked towards the golden mountain.

At first, I only saw golden light spreading everywhere, but soon, the image of Jinshan seemed to be melted, and suddenly began to waver.

It is like the shadow of the moon projected on the lake.

Someone dropped a stone in the lake, causing ripples in the water, and the shadow of the moon turned into undulating scattered waves.

After a few more seconds, the different fluttering outlines of the gold mountain began to fade, and then the luster on the goldware became lighter and lighter, until it disappeared.

Jinshan has indeed disappeared, but two tall horse belly statues appeared in front of us, and behind these two horse belly statues, there is also a large square stone pedestal.

I couldn't help but frown.

Isn't this the scene over there on the stone platform?

Wu Lin took out his flashlight again and shined a light on the horse's belly.

As expected, the light passed through the horse's belly and shone farther away.

He put away the flashlight and clicked his tongue: "It is indeed a mirage."

I turned my head and looked at Wu Lin.

Now I could see the blood on his skin, and I could also see that his hair was black, the tattered clothes on his body were yellow and green camouflage, and the clothes on his waist were The gun was stained a very dark taupe.

Then I looked at the horse belly statue in front of me.

The lower part of the horse belly statue was covered with thick or thin moss, giving it a moldy green look that looked very dirty
