Chapter 691: Stone Gate
Xiao Bai seemed to understand Luo Qingyan's words, sniffed several doors, and then stopped in front of the stone door to the south and began to scratch the stone door.
Luo Qingyan walked up to this stone door and said, "It seems that Brother Xuan and they have entered this stone door. ”
She stepped forward and pushed the stone door, but the stone door did not move, she pushed it with all her might, and the stone door still did not move. Luo Qingyan knew that he would definitely not be able to open it with brute force, and this stone gate must have a mechanism.
Luo Qingyan observed around the stone gate. The stone door is very tight without any gaps, and there are no switches or anything like that on the walls around the stone gate, so how can this stone door be opened?
Luo Qingyan's last gaze shifted to the stone statue in front of the door. The height of the stone statue is the same as that of a normal man, a little taller than Luo Qingyan, and it looks like a tall soldier. The soldier held an iron halberd in his hand and stood in front of the stone gate as if he were standing guard at the stone gate.
Luo Qingyan turned back and forth to observe the stone statue. She found that the base of the stone statue was very stocky, and she did not have to worry about the stone statue falling top-heavy. She stepped forward and pushed the stone statue, which was also not moving. Luo Qingyan felt that the bottom of this stone statue should be fixed.
Luo Qingyan took a flashlight and carefully examined the stone statue, and when her flashlight hit the hand of the stone statue soldier holding the iron halberd, she found that some of the dust on that hand had been touched off. If you look closely, there is a very inconspicuous protrusion in the palm of the hand blocked by the iron halberd, and it has been touched at a glance.
Luo Qingyan's heart became excited, and she intuitively felt that this was the switch to open the stone door. Luo Qingyan carefully probed his fingers between the iron halberd and the stone statue's palm, and gently pressed the protrusion.
As expected, I finally found out. On the ground next to the stone door a small square stone slab was held up, and below the stone slab was a round button. Luo Qingyan couldn't wait to press it.
The stone door opened. Although the stone gate looked very heavy, there was almost no sound when the stone door opened.
Luo Qingyan felt that the wisdom of the ancients was really admirable, and with this mechanism to open the door, she felt that the person who built this place must also be a person with extraordinary skills.
Luo Qingyan looked at the fully opened stone door, and took a flashlight to shine inside the stone door, only to see that it was a passage and nothing else.
Luo Qingyan stepped into the stone gate with a flashlight, and Xiaobai also followed. After Luo Qingyan walked some distance through the stone gate, the stone gate closed silently and returned to its original appearance.
Luo Qingyan didn't know anything about this, she just looked back reflexively, and found that it was dark at the end, she hurriedly walked back and found that the stone gate she had just passed through at the end of the road had been closed.
She pushed the stone door and didn't move as at first, and then took a flashlight and looked around the stone door carefully, but she didn't find anything like a switch.
Luo Qingyan didn't continue to dwell on this matter, the boat went straight to the bridge, and it was important to find her husband first.
Luo Qingyan turned around and continued to walk along the passage towards the inside. The passage is very flat, and there is a lampstand on the wall at intervals.
Luo Qingyan squatted down with a flashlight and checked the ground for a long time, the ground was full of dust, and the footprints of people walking by were naturally imprinted. The footprints on the ground were very messy. Through careful inspection, Luo Qingyan concluded that there were a lot of people, and it was very likely that they were the traces left by Lu Mingxuan and his team.
Luo Qingyan didn't dare to underestimate the wisdom of the ancients, for fear that there were hidden weapons here, so he walked very carefully. At this time, she also had a headlamp on her head, and she walked with a cartridge in her hand and observed the surroundings and the ground.
When she walked more than ten meters, she found that the walls of the passage were carved with murals, and the carving craftsmanship was very exquisite. In addition to carving, there are also paintings.
Luo Qingyan held a flashlight and carefully observed each mural, hoping to get some information about the mountain building from the mural.
Through Luo Qingyan's observation, she found that these murals reflected scenes of sacrifices, banquets, hunting and other activities. And at first glance, you can see that the characters involved in the mural are all royalty and nobles, and the scene is very grand.
Luo Qingyan wondered if this would be an ancient mausoleum, a mausoleum where an ancient monarch or nobleman was buried.
If it is really an ancient tomb, it is very tricky, because the tombs of ancient emperors or nobles are often set up with many mechanisms to prevent tomb robbers from robbing the tomb.
It's just that this is an old forest deep in the mountains, and Luo Qingyan, who has two lifetimes of experience, has never heard of an ancient tomb found in this place.
No matter what, Luo Qingyan felt that he should be extremely careful and not be a little negligent. She was very worried about Lu Mingxuan and them, and she didn't know if Luo Yi's team was with Lu Mingxuan and them.
Luo Qingyan walked cautiously for more than an hour or so, and then encountered a stone door. However, the stone door was open, and it should have been opened by the person in front of it.
Luo Qingyan cautiously entered a hall through the stone door. As soon as you enter the stone gate, there are several steps. There were several extinguishing torches poking at the walls of the hall, and it was obvious that someone had just entered the place.
Because of the torch lighting, although the light is not very bright, you can still observe the whole hall in general. This hall is also very large, with hundreds of square meters and is boxy. There are many stone carvings intricately arranged on the ground in the hall, and Luo Qingyan's sharp eyes can clearly see that these stone carvings have soldiers, horses, and various animals.
Luo Qingyan carefully felt that there was no living breath in this hall, Luo Qingyan was a little disappointed, and he didn't know when he would be able to find Lu Mingxuan and them. She feared they would be in danger.
Luo Qingyan did not rush down the steps, but stood on the steps of the door with a strong flashlight and carefully observed the stone carving. The carving of the stone carving is exquisite, and the appropriate color makes the stone carving lifelike. The soldiers of each stone and all kinds of animals are like living animals.
The stone statues are intricately spread throughout the hall, and there is nothing else but the stone hall. There was a large door at the other end of the hall, and there was no other door.
The only way to get to the gate on the opposite side is through these stone sculptures.
Luo Qingyan felt that he should be cautious at this time. This hall feels like a chessboard to her, and the stone carvings on the floor of the hall are like chess pieces.
Luo Qingyan didn't dare to walk down the steps easily, a big stone appeared out of thin air in her hand, aimed at a clearing between the stone sculptures and smashed it down.
As soon as the stone fell to the ground, the stone carvings around the stone moved, and a trap suddenly appeared on the ground where the stone was located, and the stone quickly fell into the trap and then the ground quickly returned to its original state.
