This person is actually a fake, to be precise, a stone statue, and a little shorter than the average person.

It stood straight, with its head bowed, as if it was thinking about something, and it was worth mentioning that its eyes were very large, round and rumbling like small light bulbs, and the undersides of the eyes were still green. It also has very small hands, which are the same as those of a baby, but the two arms are surprisingly strong.

Beard and I stared at the stone statue, and Beard snorted a few times, saying what the fuck is this?

Then he looked behind the statue, where there was a hole in the ground.

I looked a little more carefully than my beard, and then I noticed that there seemed to be a faint handwriting on the belly of the stone statue, but it was covered with dust.

I leaned over, half-crouched, and blew the statue's stomach.

With one bite after another, the words became clearer and clearer. The beard was not too dirty, and he finally wiped it directly with his sleeve against the stomach of the stone statue.

We saw that there were three lines of characters on it, and they were written in Tibetan and Chinese. It roughly means that this stone statue is a god who guards the burial ground, and if someone trespasses without permission, they will be killed by the god.

I'm not surprised, because many ancient tombs have similar statues or steles of gatekeepers.

The beard was still patting his chest, and said teasingly, "I'm afraid, I'm scared to death." ”

With that, the beard took another sip and kicked at the stone statue.

The statue could not hold the strength of the foot, it first tilted on its side, and then fell to the ground entirely.

I don't approve of Beard doing this, especially since the statue didn't mess with us. I warn the beard, don't destroy the antiquities.

The beard shushed and said that if this is an antiquity, then the shoes I am wearing are antiques.

I didn't say much to the beard, and we went back to the hole.

We used our flashlights to shine vertically at the hole. My first impression was that it was very deep, and it was twenty meters smaller, and there was always a gust of wind surging up the hole.

I crouched in front of the entrance, occasionally blown away by the wind and unable to open my eyes. The beard was even more angry, and scratched at the front of his eyes.

But I think this wind is also a good thing, at least there will be no lack of oxygen underground.

Beard and I both guessed that the treasure was down there, but the question was, we didn't know exactly where it was?

The two of us discussed, what that means, let's go down and have a look first.

Down from the entrance of this cave, in fact, there is also a ladder on the cave wall, but I shine it with a flashlight, this ladder looks a little rotten, and even some of the steps have insect eyes.

I'm worried that if we really climb down the ladder, if we don't step on it, we will have a bald foot, and the consequences will be terrible, and we will even fall and get seriously injured.

But we both had flashlights, and there was string in them.

I motioned to Beard for him to contribute his flashlight, while my flashlight was left to light us both.

Hu Zilian said that there was no problem, and he just took action.

He unscrewed the back cover of the flashlight and pulled the rope out. But the end of the rope is attached to the flashlight.

Beard had to tie the end of the flashlight and rope to the stone statue, after which he threw the rest of the rope towards the entrance of the cave.

I shone it with a flashlight and looked all the way down. I found that our rope was just right and ended up on the deepest ground underground.

My beard and I both tore a strip of cloth from our clothes and wrapped it around our hands.

The main reason for us to do this is to prevent our hands from bleeding because the rope is too thin when we climb the rope for a while.

In this way, I took the lead, the beard followed, and we both crawled together.

This pit is actually layered, and I noticed as I climbed, there are five layers in total.

I couldn't help but sigh. In ancient times, there was no technology to build high-rise buildings, but in the same way, ancient people were able to dig five floors underground, which was equally difficult.

When Beard and I climbed to the basement level, I reminded Beard, which means let's go to the basement floor first.

The beard answered, and we went into a big hole, which was bigger than the walls of a typical rural tiled house, and it didn't take much effort for us to do so.

When we were standing on the basement floor, I held up my flashlight and took a picture of the entire floor.

The architectural style here is very strange, let's talk about the walls on both sides, there are wall tombs one by one, these wall tombs are densely packed, if you are a person with dense phobia, after seeing this scene, you will be crazy if you don't get it. Moreover, these wall tombs, some are new and some are old, and some are broken and incomplete.

In addition, the top and ground of the basement floor are covered with steel and wooden planks. The planks are on the inside, and the steel planks are on the outside. I guess originally there were only wooden planks, but after the construction of the Governor's Palace, it was reinforced with steel plates for the sake of safety.

At this time, there was a small wind blowing on the basement floor. I smelled something strange from it, and I tasted it, guessing it was stuffy earth, and the smell of rotten flesh and white bones.

I didn't feel like I was covering my nose. I took advantage of the time to recycle the light source of the flashlight, and finally I let the light of the flashlight shine around us.

Beard snorted suddenly, and he also pointed to a spot on the right wall.

We are next to the entrance of the basement floor, in this position, there is no tomb near us, I guess there is something particular, Dawang here does not want the dead to be too close to the door.

At this time, the beard specifically refers to a small gate. There is a lot of dust on this gate, and it looks like it has not been used for a long time.

Hu Zi muttered, "What can this gate do?"

I saw that he was still meditating after speaking, and I said in my heart that for this kind of problem, I can verify it.

I walked over and reached for the brakes. Hu Zi hurriedly fed, and he waved his hand to remind, "Be careful, don't have cold arrows, boulders, or whatever." ”

If this is indeed an ancient tomb, I may be really worried, but this burial ground has been renovated by the Governor's Palace, and I guess the traps and the like have long been eliminated.

I told the beard not to think too much. But the beard was still not at ease, and in the end we compromised, and for the sake of safety, we both stood next to the small gate, against the wall.

I gestured to my beard, and then I suddenly pulled the gate down.

At that moment, my heart suddenly jumped a few times, probably under pressure, and I was still vigilant in the reaction.

Unexpectedly, the entire basement floor lit up one after another.

I looked and noticed that at the top of the walls on the left and right sides, at intervals, there were small light bulbs. The bulbs were so discreet and small that I didn't even notice them when I looked at the entire basement with a flashlight.

And none of these bulbs are very bright. Don't look at them all brightly, but under this light, the basement level is still a little dim.

The beard is quite provincial, he was first happy when he saw this, and then urged me, that means, turn off the flashlight.

I did. Then we walked to the middle of the road.

I asked the beard, "Do you know how to find the treasure next?"

Hu Zi pointed to those wall tombs and analyzed, "Treasures such things, especially Deng Ye's, can't be put on the bright side, I guess it's probably hidden in which tomb, let's not be taboo about this and that, let's check it a little bit." ”

I was stunned for a moment, and then looked at the walls on both sides.

In addition to being densely packed next to each other, the wall tombs here also have a characteristic, they are of different sizes, most of them are one foot long and one foot wide, but there are also a small number of wall tombs, they occupy a large area, even as large as two of the general wall tombs.

In addition, according to my preliminary estimate, there are 1,800 wall tombs on the entire basement floor.

I said in my heart that my brothers really want to check one by one, and if they want to check all the five-story wall tombs, it will be a big project, and it is estimated that there will be no ten days or eight days, and it will definitely not be able to go down. And to put it pessimistically, we are stupid, what if we don't find any treasure after we have investigated these wall tombs? Aren't we doing useless work? At that time, it is estimated that we both have to hug and cry in frustration.

I shook my head and adjusted my beard suggestion.

I told him, "Fang Haoyu said that the value of that treasure is very high, and it can equip a division, since this is the case, it must not be small, and it is impossible to say that it can be contained by a small wall tomb." So we can get rid of the small wall tombs and start with the big ones. ”

The beard laughed, and he praised me for being smart.

The two of us also divided the labor, the beard was the pioneer, he went in first, inspecting the large wall tomb as he went, and I took a half-beat slow time and looked at the place he walked again, to put it bluntly, I was responsible for picking up the leaks.

In this way, it took us more than half an hour to walk a total of more than 30 meters, which was not even a quarter of the basement floor.

The two of us also opened dozens of wall tombs to take a look.

To be honest, I was disappointed that there were either only white bones left, or there were not even white bones, only a few scattered bone slags.

And every time I approached these tombs, I was smoky with the smell.

The beard really felt unbearable, and he couldn't help it a little. He stopped abruptly and lit a cigarette.

After taking two puffs, he looked at the long distance that he hadn't gone away and cursed.

The beard smoked a cigarette as he strode inside. I guess he's trying to take a break, or even a sneak peek, of how much work we still have to do.

I wasn't like him, I stood still, twisting my waist and kicking my legs at random.

When he waited for the beard to be a few dozen meters away from me, he suddenly stopped. He stared at the nearby wall, and after looking at it for a while, he smiled and waved at me, "Brother, it's okay, come here!"

I guess he found something. I ran over without delay.

When I got closer, I looked at the wall as well. There is an oversized wall tomb on this wall.

Let me say that the length and width of this wall tomb is at least two meters, about the size of a large bed, and in the very center of it, there is a tomb door with a length and width of less than half a meter, and on both sides of the tomb door, and even in other areas of this wall tomb, are covered with hidden yards, which are also dirty and covered with dust.

Neither Beard nor I could read what was written, but Beard had a guess and said to me, "The owner of this tomb must be very good, otherwise it would be impossible to enjoy such a large territory after death, brother, maybe there will be surprises in this tomb." ”

Then the beard still carried the porcelain knife forward, looking at the posture, he wanted to use the porcelain knife to open the tomb door.

And at this time, a question mark popped up in my mind, and my heart said that Deng Ye wouldn't be so stupid, would he put the treasure in such a conspicuous tomb?

But I also support Beard in doing this, after all, if you look at it, even if you don't find anything, we can die!
