Everyone nodded yes, they talked a lot in this stone room, whether it was useful or not, and the conclusion was to find a way to move forward in order to figure everything out, and the most beneficial thing about staying for so long was that everyone had rested, recovered their strength and replenished their water, and they could meet the next challenges in a full state.

The location of the mechanism was quickly found in this stone room, and a stone slab in the corner of the stone room was very loose, and after prying it open, it turned out to be a downward hole.

"The entrance this time is so simple, just cover it with stone slabs?" Ye Yiqian said in disbelief.

"Do you think anyone can break through the poison line in front of you? After walking for so long, you should have reached your destination. Liao Qingdao said.

Ji Zhi turned on the flashlight and said, "I'll take the lead, you follow." ”

After speaking, he jumped down, and Wangchen followed closely behind, the two looked at the surrounding environment, three sides were stone walls, only one led to the dark front, there was nothing suspicious where the flashlight shone, Ji Zhi nodded to Wangchen, and Wangchen shook the flashlight three times above his head, while Ji Zhi continued to observe the surroundings.

After Ling Feng received the signal to forget the dust, he said to Liao Qing and the others: "It's okay, let's go down one by one." ”

Liao Qing saw that Ji Zhi and the three of them cooperated so tacitly, and secretly praised it. After everyone went down, Ling Feng went down.

After everyone came down, Ji Zhi and Wangchen were still in front, Liao Qing and others were behind, and Ling Feng Hall was behind, walking towards the depths of darkness step by step.

It's also like Yongdao here, but it's much narrower and much shorter, barely accommodating a person like Ji Zhi's thin figure for one and a half. So Wangchen could only follow Ji Zhi and look ahead with half of his body exposed, but fortunately, there was no fork in the road. It's also very short, and after walking nearly 200 meters or so, I feel suddenly enlightened. Of course, it's just Ji Zhi's feeling, because the range of the flashlight is limited, he can only roughly see that it is not as narrow as in the corridor. From the flow of air, Ji Zhi judged that he had arrived at a wide place.

Ji Zhi stopped and said, "We seem to have come to a very large space, and we can't see the edge from the distance of the flashlight, which direction should we go?"

The crowd also shone in all directions, but they found nothing, only endless darkness.

"I have flares here. But I only have two blindfolds here, and a moment of bright light will blind the eyes in the dark for a long time, so those who don't have blinders should close their eyes tightly and cover their eyes with their hands. The person with the blindfold is responsible for observing the environment here. Zhang San said and took out two blindfolds and handed them to Ji Zhi, and said, "Who wears this?"

Liao Qing said: "You wear it, you are more familiar with this advanced weapon, or it is safer for you to come." ”

Zhang San didn't shirk it, but just told Ji Zhidao: "This is my homemade flare, which is different from the general one." The flare only illuminates for 30 seconds, but the brightness is super strong, so be sure to wear a blindfold and take a quick look at your surroundings. You're in charge of the 180-degree range on the left, and I'm in charge of the right. ”

Ji Zhi said: "Okay, I'm ready." Come on. ”

As soon as Ji Zhi's voice fell, he only heard a "sudden" sound. Immediately, a bright sphere shot forward and upward, and dispersed in all directions. Ji Zhi didn't feel so dazzling when he wore an eye patch, but just emitted a dark green light, and Ji Zhi quickly looked at his left hand side. Thirty or forty meters away on the left, I saw a flat stone wall, with two huge stone pillars erected in the middle, and a rectangular stone in the middle...... At this moment, the light suddenly disappeared, and nothing could be seen, Ji Zhi took off his blindfold and saw that the last bit of light left in the flare was gone.

"What do you see?" asked Ji Zhi.

Hearing Ji Zhi speak, everyone opened their eyes and looked at Zhang San's location.

Zhang San said: "This should be the burial chamber, I saw a sarcophagus in the middle."

"That's the sarcophagus, I thought it was a stone, but fortunately I didn't ask, otherwise I would have lost my life. Ji Zhi said with a smile in his heart.

"Did you see anything illuminated? Since it's a burial chamber, there should be. Liao Qing asked.

Ji Zhidao: "I see a lot of things like oil lamps on the walls, but I don't know if there is oil in them." ”

"That'...... That's ......" Before Zhang San finished speaking, Ji Zhi had already walked to the nearest stone wall with his impression, lit a lamp, and said excitedly: "Fortunately, there is oil in it." As he spoke, he lit a lamp along the stone wall, and Wangchen and the others also came to help, and soon all the lights on the stone wall were lit.

"Wow, it turns out that this stone room is so big, it is thousands of square meters. Ji Zhi exclaimed.

After lighting all the lamps, the whole stone chamber was brilliantly lit, Ji Zhi and others saw the whole picture of the stone chamber clearly, the whole stone chamber was about 150 or 60 meters long, nearly 100 meters wide, and six or seven meters high.

Liao Qing couldn't wait to walk to the stone wall to see if there was anything valuable, and when he looked at the lamp on the stone wall, he suddenly said, "Huh?" and then carefully observed for a long time and said: "This lamp is an ever-bright lamp." ”

"But why isn't it on?" said Liao Qing without waiting for someone to answer.

"Lao Zhang, come and take a look. Liao Qing said loudly.

didn't answer, and when he turned around and saw that Zhang San was still stunned, Liao Qing shouted again: "Come over and see if this is an everlasting lamp." ”

Zhang San still didn't move, nodded and said, "That's indeed an ever-bright lamp." ”

"Ahh Liao Qingdao said.

"I was going to say it, but the captain was so fast that they lit up before I could say it. Zhang San said helplessly.

Their conversation aroused the curiosity of the others, and they all gathered around, and Ji Zhi asked, "Is there something wrong?"

Liao Qing said: "These lamps are called ever-bright lanterns. ”

Ji Zhi still didn't understand, and asked again: "So what?" He hadn't seen the tomb, and he didn't know anything about the things inside, so he didn't understand what Liao Qing meant.

Zhang San said: "The ever-bright lamp, as the name suggests, is a lamp that has been on for a long time. But it wasn't lit up. ”

Ji Zhi said disdainfully: "That's it, isn't it just not lit, maybe it's out of oil." ”

"You lit it yourself, and you saw that the oil was full. Zhang Sandao.

"Or maybe because the air here is not good, it goes out, and we come in and bring in the air, and everything is ignited again. Ji Zhi made a reason.

Do you think this is the right reason? Moreover, the ever-bright lantern is also known as the continuous lantern, or the lamp that is not extinguished, and it is often used in the tombs of ancient emperors, implying that the continuation of life will never be extinguished.

The unquenchable fire first appeared in various mythological stories. It is said that this unquenchable flame is the fire of the heavenly palace, and it was Prometheus who smuggled it to mankind. In short, human beings knew this secret by chance. Maybe it was a certain sage who passed it on to human beings, just like the Shennong clan taught humans to grow crops, and the Youchao clan taught humans to build dwellings. As soon as humans learned how to make permanent lights, word spread, and temples all over the world wanted to install such lamps that would never go out.

According to the customs of places like ancient Egypt, Greece, and Rome, the dead also needed lights to dispel darkness and illuminate the way. Therefore, it is customary to put a lamp inside the tomb before it is sealed. And the house of wealth and glory should be more luxurious, put on an unextinguished lamp, and always illuminate the dead. Thousands of years later, when the vaults of these tombs were opened, the excavators found that the lamps inside were still burning well. But these were the facts of the past, and they remain a mystery today.

In Yanhuang, legend has it that on Chinese New Year's Eve, because the gods went to heaven, the ghosts and gods came out to look for food, especially those such as the fish, the dragon, and the like, and these scattered ghosts who were not honored during the New Year's festival were even more unbelievable (because there were many cakes in every house on this night). If the lights are blown out and the sky and earth are not seen in the dark, it will catch people with its voice, especially when children cry in the middle of the night and the elderly cough, and their lives will not be saved.

There are many similar records, and it is recorded in the historical records that there is a lantern in the mausoleum of Qin Shi Huang; the Chinese have a tradition of treating death as life, and the mausoleum after death is also called the Yin House, and the king attaches great importance to the mausoleum, as a residence after death, they also hope to be as bright as the palace before death, so there is a lantern of longevity.

It has also been recorded many times around the world that in 527 A.D., when Syria was under the rule of the Eastern Roman Empire, the Eastern Roman soldiers in Syria at that time found a lamp lit in a pass alcove, which was covered by an elaborate cover, which seemed to be used to block the wind. According to the inscriptions found at the time, the lamp was lit in 27 AD. When the soldiers discovered it, the lamp had been burning for 500 years! Unfortunately, the savage soldiers quickly destroyed it, and the mysterious principle of the lamp was already known.

A Greek historian once recorded a lamp burning on the door of the Temple of the Sun in Egypt. This lamp does not use any fuel, it has been on for centuries, and it will not go out no matter how windy or rainy. According to the Roman theologian St. Augustine, the temple of Venus in Egypt also had a similar lamp, which could not be extinguished by the wind or extinguished by the rain, which was really a bit like the fire found from the mountain of flames described in "Journey to the West".

In 1400 A.D., it was discovered that such a lamp was also lit in the tomb of Peles, the son of the ancient Roman king, and this lamp had been burning for more than 2,000 years! The wind and water were helpless against it, and the only way to extinguish it was to drain the strange liquid from the lamp bowl. Could this be the mythical Aladdin's magic lamp?" Liao Qing said a lot of allusions about the ever-bright lamp like a textbook. (To be continued......)
