Chapter 0481: Altar
Knowing the true cause of death of the corpse, everyone was obviously relieved, and the oppressive and terrifying atmosphere that permeated the surroundings eased a lot.
"Let's go, the smell is unbearable." The goddess covered her nose and pushed me, glancing at the rotting corpse on the ground, revealing a look of disgust.
I nodded, turned around and waved my hand to signal everyone to move on, with the lesson of that corpse, everyone walked in a line in the middle of the road, far away from the walls on both sides, for fear of sticking to the poison and ending up in the same fate as the man.
The road is not too long, about 50 meters, the road behind is not in danger, we smoothly entered the first layer of the tomb through the road, according to the position indicated by the locator, the dinosaurs and others should be in the first layer of the tomb.
The quaint tomb door carved with the image of the holy beast was open, and there was a thick layer of dust on the floor under his feet, which was covered with a mess of footprints, and there were about a dozen people in number, and it could be seen from the lines on the footprints that it was our Caesar's custom-made military boots.
"Looks like the dinosaurs are in there!" The shark crouched on the ground and carefully observed the footprints, then stood up and whispered.
"Then what are you waiting for, hurry up and go in and save people!" The monkey couldn't wait to be the first to break in.
"Hey, be careful not to wander around! No one can save you if you get into the trap. I hurriedly reminded me, and then followed closely into the tomb, which was not very large but was built by hand, with polished and smooth bluestone slabs under the feet, and obvious traces of construction on the walls around it, and an altar in the center, with four one-meter-high stone pillars standing at the four corners, connected by arm-thick iron cables, enclosing the altar in the center.
There was no coffin on the altar, but four stone statues, facing the four directions of south, east, west, and north, each holding a strange-shaped weapon in his hand, a knife, a stick, and a hammer wrapped around chains, the shape of the knife was very strange, like two crescents inlaid together, forming a slightly awkward S-shape, which looked like a strange scepter.
These four stone statues are carved lifelike, they have a common feature is that the face expression is very vicious, even the eyes give people a sense of murder, and the look at it is as if it has been touched by the soul trembling, the vicious image seems to warn those who try to enter the tomb in vain, trespassers die.
However, it is impossible for us to be frightened by a few statues, except for me, no one else has the heart to study them, everyone is bent on saving people, how can we pay attention to a few sculptures, but this place is not big, the surroundings are clear at a glance, there is no place to hide, a group of people looked around, except for the occasional footprints on the ground, there is no one.
"How so? The locator shows that the location of the dinosaur is here, could it be that this place is also like the Savage Mountain, and the underground magnetic field chaos caused the electronic equipment to malfunction? The goddess patted the locator in her hand and said with a tight frown.
"No, if the magnetic field is chaotic and the electronic instruments cannot be used, the locator can also show the position and coordinates of the dinosaur, which means that it is not the problem of the magnetic field, the person should be here, but we haven't found it yet." I looked up at the layout of the burial chamber and said in an affirmative tone.
"This place is that big? There is not even a door around, there is nowhere to hide, can they be invisible? The monkey pinched his waist and shone around with a flashlight.
"Damn! Knowing that we're here to save people, we're supposed to sit here and wait, and walk around where we're going to look, a bunch of damn bastards. The striker spat and scolded angrily.
"This must not be the attention of the dinosaurs, according to our practice, we will choose to save our strength at the entrance of the cave and wait for rescue, the problem in this case must be the archaeological team, these greedy guys must not have found what they are looking for."
Those bastards are employers, if they ask dinosaurs and others to accompany them for protection, dinosaurs have no reason to refuse, this is originally his task has nothing to say, of course, you can also forcibly refuse, but that is a unilateral tearing up of the contract, not only will the mission fail, but it will also discredit Caesar when it gets out, so no matter what the archaeological team wants to do, the dinosaurs can only follow behind.
"So what do we do? You can see the head here at a glance, where to find it? The striker asked, turning his head angrily.
"Don't worry, there must be other exits here, they won't disappear out of thin air, and careful search will definitely leave traces." I looked around and said lightly.
Since this is a burial chamber, there should be a coffin, but there is nothing in it except four statues, and the inscription at the door reads the tomb of the high priest, so the corpse of this high priest must be in the mausoleum, but we have been looking for so long and we haven't even seen a mummy, which is enough to show that there are other burial chambers, and this is just the entrance to the entire ancient tomb or a foyer.
But where is the entrance to the next burial chamber? We almost turned the tomb over, even the road just now, and the prince pried open a few pieces of the floor that looked a little lighter, but we still didn't find any clues.
"Damn, if you look for the dinosaurs like this, they're going to rot their corpses, so it's better to blow up this hole, I don't believe I can't find them!" The grizzly bear's good temper was a little unbearable, and he sat on the ground panting with a bag of **.
"Don't be impulsive, if you blow up this place, the entire tomb will collapse, and then the dinosaurs will really be saved." I tapped Grizzly on the shoulder and motioned for him to calm down.
"What then? You can't waste it here! The goddess kept banging on the walls around her with her saber, trying to find the entrance to the next floor, but after turning around a long time, she still found nothing, and she couldn't help but feel a little irritated.
"Don't worry, there will be a way!" In fact, I have no clue in my heart, charging into battle is our strength, but this grave digging has never been touched, the ingenious design that exists in the tomb owes the wisdom of the ancients to the wonderful mechanism is a completely unfamiliar field for us, if it is those tomb robbers who make a living by fighting inverted, they must be able to see through the layout of this place at a glance, and it is not difficult to find the mechanism to open the second layer of the tomb, because this is much simpler than the ancient Chinese tomb containing the gossip of Fuxi.
But in the eyes of us laymen, it was as difficult as heaven, I pinched my chin and circled around the altar in the middle several times, racking my brains to think of a way to crack it, looking at those fierce stone statues, their fierce eyes seemed to laugh at my incompetence, so that I felt a burst of anger in my heart for no reason, the more I looked at it, the more unpleasant I felt, and the grinning expression was clearly provoking me.
I involuntarily stopped, my breathing gradually became rapid, my eyes were full of murderous eyes staring at the stone statue due to the north, my fists were clenched, and a nameless anger rushed from my heart, surging in an instant.
