Chapter 206: Nightmare Flower (Part II)
"Qiu Yan, do you want to take a break?" Xiao Li listened to the 'nonsense', a little worried, she was afraid that he would become a different appearance. There had already been traces of illness in the Desert Pavilion before, and although the other two didn't know the inside story, she knew how terrible the other 'Qiu Yan' was.
"I'm fine.." Qiu Yan seemed to see Xiao Li's worries, and comforted softly, after a few words, Li Mowu also pried the stone door out of the gap where one person was allowed to pass.
Qiu Yan smiled at Xiao Li, and walked towards the stone gate, perhaps only he knew what a strange scene he had just experienced, it seemed real, like a fantasy, vague, and he couldn't help but hold Xiao Li's palm tighter.
When I walked to the end, I entered a wide and dry stone room, which was almost sixty or seventy meters long and wide, and three meters high, and the four people standing in it did not look cramped and crowded at all.
Although this space is spacious, the atmosphere is by no means relaxed, there are many white bones on the ground, and there is no place to stay, and those bones are all animals, extremely loose, and they will break when you step on them, and the surrounding walls are scattered with human bones of different postures, and the body size is all in the prime of life. The four of them have been practicing for a long time, but they just feel that this place is secret, and they don't feel afraid.
Li Mowu looked at the bones and said softly. "Look at the dress, it seems to be a peer.. There are quite a few people, and there are probably a dozen people who can be identified, but how can they die here?"
Qiu Yan turned around, looked around, there were stone walls on all sides, knocked a few times, and the back was obviously solid, and there would be no other space, Dao. "There must have been some unexpected change, you see that some of their corpses are still scattered with knives, the blades are straight down, obviously they were killed by a knife, and judging from the steel seal of the knives and their clothing, it is not difficult to tell that they should be a team. ”
"You mean, they killed each other and died here in the end?" Li Mowu was a little stunned, and it seemed that it was difficult to accept this inference.
"He's right, these corpses and the foreign mercenaries in the barren valley should be a team of people, but for some reason they were trapped here, causing themselves to kill each other and annihilate the whole army. Lejin pulled a dagger from a dried corpse and looked at it carefully.
Li Mowu raised his eyebrows and chuckled. "Rare.."
"What's so rare?" asked Lejin.
"It's rare that you two can even think of going together.."
The moment Le Jin raised his head, the corner of his eye caught a glimpse of Qiu Yan's gaze, it was so quiet and peaceful, he didn't meet it, but looked into the distance blankly. "I'm just thinking about my own safety. ”
It was also at this time that the careful Xiao Li found that there was a problem with the floor of the stone room, and Qiu Yan removed all the broken bones on the ground, revealing a large stone slab on the ground, which was also embossed, and there were two pull rings at both ends.
A few people glanced at each other, and decided to pull up the stone slab, Li Mowu looked at the swarthy hole, and threw a cold firework into it, illuminating the light below, only to see that under the ground was a tomb similar to the top, and a square coffin was placed in the middle.
It is only a distance of nearly one meter from the ground of the tomb, and you can go down directly without a rope, as soon as Qiu Yan's feet landed, she couldn't help but feel a little nervous in her heart, who knows if it will be the same as last time, meet a tomb keeper like Xiao Li, then this world is really interesting.
The area of the burial chamber is not large, at most 30 square meters, it seems that it is designed according to the residence of the living house, with the main room, the back room, and two ear rooms. The place where Qiu Yan came in happened to be an ear room, and the coffin of the tomb owner was parked in the middle of the main room.
There was no tomb bed, a shallow pit was dug in the middle of the main chamber, and the black coffin was placed in the pit, half exposed on the top, which was a tomb within a tomb.
There were several skeletons piled up in the corner of the main room, the skulls were sunken and cracked, and there were obvious marks of blunt blows, probably prisoners or wives and concubines used for burial, and several people had their own thoughts, so they didn't pay much attention to these.
Li Mowu suddenly grabbed Qiu Yan's arm. "Liang Qiuyan, you see there are paintings on this wall. ”
Qiu Yan used a flashlight to shine on the tomb wall that Li Mowu said, and sure enough, he used painted reliefs to carve pictures one after another, and the characters in the paintings were simple and lifelike. The colors are still vibrant, but as the air enters the burial chamber, it doesn't take long for the frescoes to fade.
Li Mowu exclaimed. "It seems that the dead man in this tomb may have been a painter in ancient times. ”
Qiu Yan glanced at Li Mowu, and Xiao Li also laughed. "Don't you know how to pretend to know, in the Tang and Song dynasties of China, most of the princely tombs have murals, which are used to record the major deeds of the tomb owner's life, let's see what characters are buried here. ”
There are five murals in total, and the four of them looked at them in order. Some of these paintings depict scenes of hunting in the forest, some are drinking with friends in the palace, some are painted with the scene of going out to fight, some are depicting the situation of escorting prisoners, and the last one depicts the scene of the feudal marquis, and in each mural there is a man wearing a fox fur on his head, which should be the owner of the tomb buried in the tomb, it seems that this is a general's tomb, at least a marquis of ten thousand households.
The coffin of the tomb owner is not small, it is mahogany black lacquer, painted with gold ornaments, the color and shape are very strange, which should be related to the totem of a certain nation.
Qiu Yan smashed the coffin board with Sanmei, it was very thick, the average poor person couldn't afford such a thick coffin, it would be good to have a thin coffin, and if it was mixed again, he would take the grass and bury it casually.
The best in the coffin is the tree of gloomy wood, that is, the heart of the tree, a gloomy wood from the growth to the timber and then buried in the ground to form, it takes at least thousands of years, this kind of best can be met but not supplied, only the ancient royal family can enjoy. The corpse is buried in the ground in a gloomy wooden tree hole, and the body will never rot *** The embalming coffin made of crystal is valuable, and it is more effective than the preservation function of the refrigerator. The second is linden mahogany, thousand-year-old cypress, the thicker the heart of the tree, the more valuable, the first is to prevent the corpse from rotting, the second is not afraid of snake and insect bites, can effectively prevent maggots and ants from biting, unlike ordinary wood, it will not take long to be eaten by insects and ants, which tomb owner does not want his body to be eaten by insects after death, that situation is disgusting to think about, so the coffin wood of the nobles has strict requirements.
