Chapter 304: Sand Coins
The cellar is in the north of the backyard, on the surface it looks like a well, down the mouth of the well about a zhang is the horizontal passage, to the lower passage will be slightly opener, a person carrying a bag of grain can pass smoothly.
A muffled noise came from the cellar just now, followed by a thick puff of smoke and dust gushing out of the wellhead, so people suspected that the cellar had collapsed.
After waiting for a while, the smoke and dust below were only slightly weaker, and Li Qi and Tang Pi covered their mouths and noses with scarves, and entered the cellar one after the other.
When you enter the horizontal passage below, the smell of dust is very strong, and the nose of the person who rushes is extremely uncomfortable, as if you want to block your breathing.
Li Qi and the two of them really couldn't go far, and returned to the wellhead position, and let people go down a few buckets of water, and he and Tang Bi walked forward while splashing water, which was only slightly better.
When I got to the cellar, I found that there was indeed a large crater collapsed near the corner of the wall, and there was smoke and dust coming out.
"It's good that the food didn't go through."
Tang Pidi squatted at the edge of the big pit and looked down, the black hole below, the smoke and dust floating in the air hovering, like a cosmic galaxy that had shrunk countless times.
Tang Pidi glanced at Li Qi: "I'll go first, and you will go down again." ”
Li Qi shook his head and threw down the torch in his hand, and the torch quickly fell to the ground, obviously not deep, that is, less than a zhang, about the height from the eaves to the ground.
The torch shook a few times underneath, then went out.
Li Qi said: "Let's go down later, Mr. Li mentioned in the book left by Mr. Li that if a torch is thrown in a closed place, if the torch is extinguished soon, it may be dangerous." ”
Tang Pidi asked, "Which Mr. Li?" ”
Li Qi said: "The gentleman in the library of the academy. ”
Tang remembered it violently, and he nodded: "That weirdo, amazing weirdo." ”
Li Qi didn't dare to be careless, anyway, what Mr. Li said must be reasonable, the two of them squatted there and waited for a while, and the smoke and dust floating below gradually fell, and their vision became much clearer.
"You said it would be an ancient tomb or something."
Tang Pi said: "Jizhou City was called Baocheng before the Zhou, it was once the capital of the small country Youshan Country, although the Youshan Country was small, but it existed for hundreds of years, after being destroyed, the Great Zhou Dynasty established the country, renamed Baocheng Jizhou, and it was rumored that there was an ancient city wall of Baocheng under a certain section of the city wall of Jizhou City. ”
Li Qi said: "If it is really an ancient tomb, I will deal with the male ghost, and the female ghost - leave it to you." ”
Tang Pidi smiled: "Are you experienced in dealing with men?" ”
Li Qi thought for a moment, and then snorted.
After a while, Li Qi lit another torch and threw it down, this time the torch was not extinguished quickly, it kept burning in the west, Li Qi immediately re-wrapped the face cloth, and the first one jumped down.
After landing on the ground, the soles of his feet felt very strange, as if he was stepping on a velvet blanket, but Li Qi knew that it was dust, thick dust.
He picked up the torch and lit it around, and suddenly there was a scream, and the man fell.
Tang Pidi immediately jumped down, squatted beside Li Qi and asked eagerly, "How are you?" ”
Li Qi laughed and sat up: "The ancient tomb, it's a little boring if you don't make a little thriller." ”
Tang Pidi glared at him, looked around, and then he also snorted, and immediately retreated.
Li Qi smiled: "You're boring." ”
Tang Pidi stretched out his hand and pointed inside, and said in a low voice, "Come here." ”
Li Qi glanced back, and saw that there were two things in the depths of the cave that were glowing green, like a pair of strange eyes looking at them.
Li Qi was so frightened that he hurriedly retreated.
The two of them waited for a while, but there was no movement, Tang Pidi threw his torch over with a flick of his hand, the torch swirled in mid-air, illuminating all the way, the torch fell to the ground with a snap and splashed countless sparks, the green faint light seemed to disappear for an instant, and then it came again after a while
I came out, but I didn't move in place.
"Is it male or female?"
Don asked.
Li Qi said: "It must be a woman, it's your dish." ”
Tang Pidi shook his head and said, "It must be a man." ”
Li Qi asked, "How can you see it?" ”
Tang Pidi said seriously: "Men are easy to be green. ”
Li Qi's eyes widened as he looked at Tang Pidi, he felt that this was really fucking bullshit, but it seemed to make a lot of fucking sense.
At this moment, the sound of Yu Jiuling shouting came from above their heads, and Li Qi shouted to signal them to be below, and after a while, Zhuang Wushu also jumped down with a torch.
Zhuang Wushu asked, "How is it?" ”
Li Qi and Tang Rival shook their heads at the same time, Zhuang Wudi looked forward along their line of sight, and after a while, they saw the two small green lights, so Zhuang Wudi was frightened, and then shouted to his head: "Jiu'er, there is a baby." ”
With a whoosh, Yu Jiuling came down, and walked forward with a torch: "Where is the baby?" ”
Li Qi looked at Zhuang Wuving, and Zhuang Wuving had a ashamed expression on his face.
The four men were much more courageous when they came down, and walked forward with torches, and when they came nearer, they found that the two green glowing things were two beads embedded in the door, and when they were illuminated by the torches, they would emit a shimmering green reflection.
"This bead is the size of a cow's egg, and it must be worth a lot."
Yu Jiuling stretched out his hand to pick it.
Li Qi grabbed him: "Use a dagger." ”
Only then did Yu Jiuling react, and turned out a dagger to pry the two beads, he pried it, Tang Pidi seemed to be unable to help but ask Yu Jiuling: "Ninth sister, how do you know how big the cow egg is?" ”
Yu Jiuling was stunned and replied: "Guess, describe, describe or not?" ”
Tang Pi said: "Then why don't you say eggs, duck eggs, and use the word cow eggs?" ”
Yu Jiuling said: "Eggs, duck eggs are eggs, and cow eggs are eggs?" ”
He finally pried one off, this bead is indeed not a very regular circle, and when touched through things, he also feels cold.
Yu Jiuling pried off the two beads and put them into the deerskin sac, and without the light source, the two beads no longer glowed.
Under the light of the torches, they could see clearly that there was a door in front of them, and it was a door made of stone, as if it had been polished and carved from a whole boulder, and it should be extremely strong and heavy.
Yu Jiuling tried to push it with his hand, but the door was stuck by something and couldn't be pushed open, so Yu Jiuling took a few steps back, and after running, he flew and kicked on the door, and when there was a bang, the door vibrated for a moment, and then slowly bounced out a little.
Yu Jiuling squatted there and rubbed his feet, and found that the three guys looked at him, and then looked at the door, Zhuang Wushu went over and stretched out his hand, and the door opened.
Li Qi looked at Tang Pidi and said, "Your ninth sister is fierce." ”
Tang Pidi shook his head with a smile, he was the first to go in with the torch, and shook it around, and the fire on the torch spread out all over at once, as if it had ignited the air.
This scene was particularly weird, but it was only weird for a moment, because Tang Pi said, "It should be something like a spider web that has been ignited." ”
Yu Jiuling thought of the beginnings of countless stories in his head, but because of the three words spider web, the story ended early.
It's not damp at all, it's dry, and I think some special means have been used, so even though many, many years have passed, it has not been eroded by moisture.
Li Qi walked forward with a torch, and suddenly saw a figure in front of him who seemed to be sitting, he immediately held the hilt of the knife on his waist, and then asked, "Who is it?" ”
It's a knee-jerk reaction.
His voice startled Yu Jiuling and the others, and hurriedly came over, the four of them walked forward side by side, The four knives of the four people were already half unsheathed, as long as there was any wind and grass, the four knives would be cut out immediately.
When I got closer, I realized that it was a statue, a very majestic middle-aged man
Statue of a man sitting on a throne.
Yu Jiuling took a closer look, the statue was extremely delicately carved, about the same size as a life-size, sitting there, looking very imposing.
There were still some words carved on the throne, and Yu Jiuling muttered something in his mouth, and Li Qi asked, "What is engraved?" ”
Yu Jiuling said: "It's a vicious curse, which probably means that whoever comes in here will be lucky for a hundred years, and if you want money, you want to be rich, you want Niu'er to be rich, and you can live a long life, and the curse will take effect from the moment you come in, and you will not accept refutation." ”
Tang Pi said: "I thank him for you." ”
Yu Jiuling: "You're welcome...... Actually, I don't recognize a word, but I understand the meaning. ”
Li Qi looked closer, and the carved characters were ancient characters, at least not the characters of Zhou Hou, and he didn't recognize them.
Yu Jiuling saw that there was no danger, so he immediately went out to call people, and after a while, the people who came in became more and more right, lit up the torches, and the surroundings were lit up.
It doesn't look like an ancient tomb, but it's unclear what it's for.
"What's that?"
At this time, Yu Jiuling saw a row of stone statues behind the throne, and counted a total of seven people, all of whom were standing statues, and the most incredible thing was that these seven people were wearing simple armor.
"A godsend!"
Yu Jiuling's eyes widened: "This armor can be preserved to this day, and at first glance, it is a priceless treasure, and it has become rich." ”
He ran over and reached for the armor, each of which reflected a faint light in the light of the torches.
As soon as Yu Jiuling touched it, the armor fell apart and fell to the ground.
He stood there in a daze, with only one sentence playing back and forth in his head...... Myths and stories are all deceptive.
Shouldn't this be a treasure?
These seven samurai are standing here, isn't it just a link to send benefits?
Why did the armor, which looked good, fall apart at the touch of it?
"Stupid ......"
Zhuang Wushu glanced at him, don't dislike it.
Tang Pidi smiled: "It's the rope that is scattered, the rope of the armor-piercing piece is rotten, it's okay if you don't touch it, it will fall apart when you touch it, but you see, these armor pieces have not rusted so far, obviously not ordinary." ”
Yu Jiuling smiled wryly.
"There's a treasure here!"
A guy shouted in the distance.
Li Qi and the others hurriedly ran over, and they saw that there were many stone troughs near the side, and the top was covered with stone slabs.
There was a line of words carved on the wall, and Mr. Yan looked at it carefully for a while and said, "These words are written ...... Gather the wealth of the country, the benevolent get it, and use this treasure to restore my rivers and mountains. ”
He looked at Li Qi and said, "Sure enough, it is a treasure, and it should be regarded as the treasury of this small country at that time, and it is all money." ”
Everyone was surprised, this kind of luck really has nothing to say, and if it collapses a big hole, it is actually the savings of the entire treasury.
Yu Jiuling couldn't wait, he called two people for help, and struggled to lift a stone slab, and everyone held torches to look into the stone trough, and all opened their mouths in surprise.
Mr. Yan looked down, then laughed with a snort.
This stone trough is full of shells.
That's a lot of shells.
Yu Jiuling was unwilling, opened another stone trough and looked inside, the things here were different, they were all irregular circles, some had broken into powder, and some could still see the form.
He asked Yan Qingzhi: "Mr. Yan, what the hell is this!" ”
Yan Qing Zhizai looked at it carefully, and then replied, "Sand coins." ”
Yu Jiuling said: "How can you scold people! ”
Yan Qingzhi sighed and said, "This thing...... It's really called Sand Coin. ”
