Chapter 1252: Everlasting Lamp?
Under the entire layer of ruins, you can faintly see some fragments of burial goods, of course, there may be intact.
But the purpose of this trip is not to these burial goods, and the time is also rushed, and the environment is very complicated, there is mercury volatilizing all around, and these stones and bright utensils look like they have been soaked in mercury.
I didn't stop, but went down the rope until I reached the sixth floor, which was the same as the fifth, and even more miserable than the fifth, with more damage.
Because under the collapse, the fifth layer and the stones and other things that roll down from it are all filled down, and the more the layers below, as long as there are cracks down, the more broken stones and soil will roll down, and they may even be piled up, or even buried.
The sixth layer even showed signs of being filled, but there was a crack in the middle, and sand could be seen inside the crack, and it was obvious that the lower layer, the seventh layer, was almost filled with sand.
In this way, it is possible that there is no gap in the seventh layer, and all the sand that flows down is accumulated.
I followed the rope to the edge of the gap on the sixth floor, and then looked down the gap.
It was full underneath, and the mound was cone-shaped, and the mound almost filled the stone chamber on the seventh floor, leaving only a small gap that I should be able to squeeze into, according to my size.
But you have to take off the bag behind you.
I glanced at the entire sixth floor, it was extremely messy, I used to be full of curiosity about the fourth layer and below, if it wasn't destroyed, it would definitely be a different scene.
But at this moment, it was a big disappointment, and the seventh layer was also buried, and obviously there was nothing to be seen.
I just hope that the entrance from the seventh floor to the eighth floor is not blocked, otherwise it will be troublesome.
I stood on the edge of the crack, still with a rope tied to my body, and I slowly slid down, down the gap, but because the gap was so small, my face was clinging to the dirt of the mound.
And the lower part is narrower, and the whole person can't pass through, just the size of a palm.
I took out a shovel and used it to pound in it, and I pulled the dirt down into it, and gradually the gap became larger.
After getting inside, the space is getting bigger and bigger, but people can no longer walk upright, and they don't know where the specific entrance is.
If the first floor is on the right, the second floor is on the left, and so on, then the seventh floor is also on the right, and at the moment I am on the right.
I have been down this Qinling Tomb many times, and I have seen a lot of entrances from the first to the fourth floor, and I am also familiar with the style of the entrance.
I glanced at one of the mounds, and if I followed the entrance to the first level, there should be a huge copper pipe that went straight to the bottom.
The copper pipe opens to reveal the entrance.
But at this moment, there is no copper pipe to be seen, it must have been buried in the mound.
"Fossil turtle, your task is here, this digging is your forte, come out and help me. I said to the Tower of Babel.
With a buzz, the fossil turtle appeared in front of me.
One of the special things about fossil turtles is that they can be big or small, when they are big, they are like an island, and when they are small, they can be placed directly in the palm of my hand, like a newborn school rule.
"But you have to be careful, this is a collapsed earthwork, don't move too much, so as not to cause a secondary collapse. I pointed to the designated mound and said, "The mound in front of me, open it and look for it, and see if there is a thick copper pillar that several people hug together." ”
The fossil turtle nodded, then crawled towards the tall mound, its sharp claws beginning to ruffle the earth......
I was on guard, turning my head to look at the secondary collapse.
After a while, the fossil turtle pushed back the mound of dirt, revealing a corner of the copper pillar.
I was immediately happy and walked towards the bronze pillar.
Then I searched carefully on the copper pillar, and sure enough, I found a plug like a door, although it was tightly sealed, but I could still see it if I looked closely.
I took out my dagger, dug through the crevice, and then pried it out, and found that the door was still heavy.
Before, Qin Bu'a walked down as a sword spirit, and he didn't need to open the door at all, but went directly through it.
But if I don't open it now, I won't be able to get in at all.
Finally, with great difficulty, a screw was rotated in the middle of the door, and out of the screw was an iron hook, and I tied a rope to the iron hook, and then put the rope on the body of the fossil turtle.
"Pull!" I gestured to the fossil turtle.
The fossil turtle pulled forward, and the rope was straightened in an instant.
However, the body of the fossil turtle was also pulled by the rope and could not move forward.
The fossil turtle's body suddenly burst into light, which was the use of the power of Neidan, which was equivalent to using all the strength to eat milk.
There was a clicking sound through the crack in the door, the sound of metal grinding, and then the door was pulling out little by little, millimeter by millimeter.
"Work harder, and it's almost done. I turned to the fossil turtle.
With a bang, the entire door was pulled out and fell to the ground, with a buzzing sound.
The door looked to weigh several tons, all of it was made of bronze and was all patina, especially since the joints between the door and the door frame had been corroded, and it would not have been easy to pull out if it weren't for the fossil turtle.
I took the fossil turtle back into the Tower of Babel and looked inside the door.
I tied the rope to the perimeter of the copper pillar and threw the other end in, and I followed the rope and slowly slid it inside.
There was still that greasy oil around, but when I looked down, there was a bright light under my feet, which really startled me.
I quickly grabbed the rope and didn't dare to go any further.
"Is the legend true?" I widened my eyes and remembered the legend from before, which said that in the depths of the Qin Tomb, there was a 10,000-year-old lantern made of mermaid oil, and the lamp could burn for 10,000 years without extinguishing it.
A single drop of merman oil can burn for hundreds of years......
But it's not scientific, the scientific explanation is that when the fire is burning, there must be oxygen, as the depths of the Qinling Tomb, it must be sealed, oxygen is very effective, so that after the ever-bright lamp burns all the oxygen underneath, the lamp will naturally go out.
But why is there a light underneath?
I took a deep breath, I'm here, what's there to be afraid of.
Besides, in my Tower of Babel, there are giant predecessors in charge, and I am not afraid of any demons and monsters.
With that in mind, I slipped down, and after about five breaths, my feet hit the ground.
In front of him was a passage, and at the end of the passage was a faint green light, as terrifying as a ghostly fire.
I covered my eyes with my hands and cautiously walked towards the passageway.
