Chapter 558: Treasures of the Previous Dynasty
The lock was made of dark iron, and he couldn't open it at all.
And at this moment, the eyes of the carved dragon on the main tomb lit up, and he wanted to go into some observations, but he was vigilant in his heart. However, the eyes of the carved dragon flashed red, as if this stone carved dragon could understand human nature.
When the king of Chu reached out and touched the dragon's eye, he found that the dragon's eye was not so smooth, but had a slight roughness, which seemed to be ...... Scales?
Just as he was thinking, the King of Chu only felt a pain in his fingers, and a wound immediately appeared on his thumb, but he didn't see anything sharp on the dragon's eye, and the door of the main tomb slowly opened. After the eyes of the carved dragon that had just been spiritualized were stained with blood, they also lost their red light and became as dull as ordinary stones.
Although there is a slight deviation between the whole process and the reasoning, it is generally the same.
On the other side, Chi Wan and the Nine Princes stood outside the stone door of the main tomb, hesitating whether to go in or not.
In this case, this burial chamber is equivalent to being specially designed for the children of their royal family, in order to preserve the country after thousands of years. It's just that the emperor of the previous dynasty probably didn't expect that none of his children and grandchildren stayed, but cheapened his enemies.
Chi Wan is not a member of the royal family, and her bloodline is naturally of foreign blood, so it is safe to walk in it. But in the body of the Nine Princes, there is royal blood flowing in it, and according to the posture of the poisonous arrow before, stay with him, I am afraid that the further you go, the greater the hidden danger that exists invisibly.
The Nine Princes also seemed to have thought of this, and subconsciously quickened their pace, opening a certain distance from Chi Wan.
The closer they got, the more attractive the looming mystical power became. The three survivors who followed behind, Chi Wan observed a little, and found that the three of them looked at the main tomb in unison, they should have been summoned by that mysterious attraction, attracted by something in the main tomb.
However, this attraction should not have an effect on people's minds, because Ji Wan herself does not feel this way.
She and the Nine Princes glanced at each other, and finally decided to go in. From the moment she entered the burial chamber, she had already decided not to look back. Now that he has reached the door of the main tomb, he has succeeded most of it, and it would be a pity to give up now.
Even if you die in it, you can't go back now.
Just as Chi Wan was about to lift her feet, the Ninth Prince suddenly said in a loud voice, "I know what you're worried about. I have royal blood, and you bring the three of them here to wait for me, so that it will be good for you and me. The more people there are, the more things you need to consider. ”
None of them could predict what they would encounter in front of them, but judging from the mechanism that entered the door just now, the Nine Princes, who had royal blood, were undoubtedly a key to walking.
"Nope." Chi Wan denied it without thinking about it, "If I were greedy for life and afraid of death, I wouldn't have come here today, and besides, there is the King of Chu inside, can you beat him alone?" ”
Seeing that Chi Wan was so stubborn, the Nine Princes had no choice but to give up. He knew Chi Wan's temperament, but he still wanted to give it a try, and the result was as he expected, thinking of this, he pulled the corners of his mouth and smiled bitterly.
"Then let the three of them stay outside, as I said earlier, the more people you have to take into account, the greater the danger invisibly." The Nine Princes spoke again.
Chi Wan thought for a moment and nodded slowly, "Okay." ”
"The three of you are here to wait for us, no matter who wants to enter through this door, or if the king of Chu comes out before us, you will do your best to stop and hold them back."
Several people were ordered to stay outside the door.
The two cautiously entered inside, the darkness slowly receded, and the sight was a dazzling golden light,
"There are so many gold, silver and jewelry, and it is estimated that there is not so much in the entire treasury." Ji Wan's voice showed a bit of amazement, and they were surrounded by gold, silver and jewelry.
Like what jade, mutton fat jade, agate, these rare things in the weekdays, in which are piled up at random, and gold and silver are more like flowing water, the whole tomb is like a natural cash cow, there is no magnificent, but also in response to the sentence of jade, gold nuggets and beads.
The Nine Princes squatted on the ground and inspected it, nodded and said, "Indeed, don't say it's the treasury, all the treasures in the world have accumulated together, and that's it, it seems that there is indeed a treasure here, but it shouldn't be such a superficial thing." ”
He was born in the royal family, and he can be regarded as having seen the world, but when he sees so much gold, silver and jewelry, he is inevitably a little distracted. I was able to pile up so much money at will, but I was afraid that the owner of the tomb did not feel how precious these things were.
Thinking of this, his heart suddenly became a little hot, could it be that the legendary chain mail and weapons of the previous dynasty were really in this tomb?
"That's it, King Chu is not here, it seems that we should still need to go down a little further, if it weren't for the important things I have today, I guess I would want to take them all home." Ji Wan got up and straightened her skirt and talked about serious things, but at the same time she didn't forget to make a joke.
The solemn atmosphere dissipated abruptly, and people's long-suppressed hearts suddenly became a lot lighter.
She has never seen so much wealth, but no matter what, now the most important task of the two of them is to find the King of Chu, money is secondary, after all, if you really like it, you can take it when you come back, but to seize the King of Chu, there is only this one chance.
"Let's go, go down one level, and from here, we're more careful." A solemnity flashed on the face of the Nine Princes, and the two of them walked down the steps of the tomb.
Gold and silver treasures are good, but the superficial things are often highly poisonous, no matter what, this is the truth, now that they have entered a mysterious area, everything must be careful, cautious, after all, it is right.
When the two of them walked to the next floor, an aura of slaughter came to their faces. Although it was not as gorgeous and rich as the previous floor, there were swords all over the room, and there were some other particularly large weapons, some of which they had never seen before.
There are not only these fighting and killing things in the room, but also some books, if you flip through them, you will know that these are military books.
"It seems that there are more than just mundane things here." Ji Wan opened a military book, and her eyes couldn't help but be a little amazed. Although she doesn't know how to arrange troops, she has been following Xie Yutang's side, and she can understand a little bit in the end. The contents recorded in these military books, even from the perspective of her later generations, are enough to amaze people.
She didn't think that there would be such mundane things as gold, silver and jewelry in this entire tomb, but she didn't expect that there would be so many military books here, although they are military books, it seems that behind this door, there are many secrets, and I don't know why such an amazing and glamorous former dynasty suddenly collapsed?
Here, I'm afraid there is some secret. But that's not something she's supposed to explore.
The Nine Princes were on the side, picked up a spear, and danced a set of marksmanship, the red tassels wrapped around the head of the spear made of dark iron, hunting in the air.
He nodded with satisfaction, "Although the weapons here are said to be dusty, they are still not sharp, if there is such a weapon in your hand, why worry about the world." ”
In every man's heart, he has the dream of being a hero, although he has never grown up in the barracks, but he still knows a little about these things. Even the best craftsmen in the Eastern Xuan Kingdom may not be able to make such sharp weapons.
"I don't know how many surprises are waiting for us ahead, this front dynasty is really interesting." Chi Wan looked at the stairs on the side, her eyes dark.
Although she was amazed by the gold, silver and jewels all over the ground, and also marveled at the military books and weapons, she understood more clearly that the previous dynasty could stack such things at will, compared to having no fear, and was not afraid of being stolen.
The further down they go, the greater the danger they face.
The Nine Princes bowed slightly, "I've all walked here, and I still haven't seen him, that can only mean that the other party has gone farther than we imagined, after all, he came so long before us, do we still have to continue walking?" ”
The "he" he said, both of them knew it, they had not found the King of Chu until now, and they had not found any traces of blood along the way, if they continued to walk, it was very likely that they would face the King of Chu head-on.
Now there are only two of them, and the King of Chu doesn't know how many people have survived, once they face each other, they are afraid that the situation will be unfavorable to them.
"Of course, isn't that what the two of us are here for?" Ji Wan strengthened her heart, no matter what, she would always go on.
When the two of them walked through the zigzag passage again, they came to the third level, which was completely different from the first two floors, a huge ship was located in the center, taking up almost the entire space.
"This is by no means a product of this era." Ji Wan came to this conclusion at the first glance of a close look.
Although he is not an expert himself, the saying that details determine success or failure is not just talk, this ship looks like it is not something that ordinary people can make, and from the details of it, it is not to mention, just the material, they have never seen it before.
The Nine Princes groped on it for a while, and the touch of wood and non-wood, like iron and non-iron, made his expression solemn.
Although he can't see what the way this is, but it is enough to confirm the existence of the treasure, through the previous things, this ship may not be the last treasure, the things in front are already so shocking, I don't know how shocking this last treasure is.
