Chapter Ninety-Six: The Lights Shine Forever

"Your Majesty, General Li has figured out the dragon vein, and according to Feng Shui, the main burial chamber should be located at the bend of the water flow in the southeast direction. But Jia Zeng is not an ordinary person, he will definitely not choose the best acupoint in Feng Shui. Wang Fugui said.

Yin Shenglin said: "Jia Zeng originally planned to fight the tomb robber to the end, and he must have designed his tomb with the extreme cathode and extremely dangerous, but it is the worst place in feng shui, and it is more likely to be the location of the main tomb." ”

"What did General Lee say?"

"Just wait for the emperor to give your order, and the thief hole will be beaten."

"Tell General Li that he will make decisions on all actions in the tomb, and he doesn't need to ask me again."

"Understood."

Li Runlin and Ji Tong were discussing entering from that side, and Wang Fugui and Yin Shenglin also arrived.

"The last general will see Your Majesty."

"Your Majesty." Ji Tong said: "There is some danger here, you don't have to come in person, just wait for the thief hole to be built." ”

Yin Shenglin nodded: "Then let's start." ”

Li Runlin and the others began to beckon his subordinates to make holes, and Yin Shenglin called Ji Tong over and asked, "Is there any new news from Changling?" ”

"I just received a secret letter from Wang Jixiang, the condition of the thief king is temporarily stable, and Your Majesty does not need to worry too much. Nothing else. Ji Tong said.

……

Wang Fugui was sweating profusely: "This Li Runrin, the light has made me work hard." ”

Li Runlin said: "Your Majesty, the robbery hole has been built in a zigzag shape, and there is a tomb at the bottom, even if it is not the main tomb, it should not be far away." ”

"Into the grave." Yin Shenglin said.

As soon as he entered the tomb, Wang Fugui was taken aback. "Why is it so bright here?"

"Everlasting light."

There are tomb robbers all over the world, who go to the tombs to steal gold, silver and jewels that have been buried for thousands of years, and the tombs are often isolated from the world, so that the treasures have been preserved quite well for thousands of years. In this ancient tomb that does not see the light of day all year round, tomb robbers usually think that they should not be able to reach out and lose their fingers. Sometimes, however, they were horrified to find that on the vaults of some tombs, a bright lamp cast a faint light.

In the eleventh year of the Dou State calendar, Beiling was still under the rule of the relatively powerful Black Kingdom at that time, and the Black soldiers in Beiling had found a delicate ancient tomb, and a lamp was lit at the top of the tomb, and the lamp was covered by a delicate cover, which seemed to be used to block the wind. According to the inscriptions found at that time, the lamp was lit 500 years ago. When the soldiers found it, the lamp had been burning for 500 years! Unfortunately, the savage Black Nation soldiers quickly destroyed it, and the mechanism of this mysterious lamp is unknown.

A historian of the Ju Kingdom once recorded a lamp burning in the ruins of the ancient Ju Kingdom. This lamp does not use any fuel, it has been on for centuries, and it will not go out no matter how windy or rainy. According to human descriptions, there is also a similar lamp in the Ju temple in the Ju Kingdom, which cannot be extinguished by the wind or rain, but no one can explain their principle.

In the nineteenth year of the Dou State calendar, the newly established imperial thieves found that such a lamp was also lit in a tomb near Jinzhou, and this lamp had been burning for thousands of years! Wind and water were helpless against it, and the only way to extinguish it was to drain the strange liquid from the lamp bowl. Could this be the mythical Aladdin's magic lamp? The tomb where the lantern is located must be priceless, although people don't understand the principle of the lantern, but this thing has gradually become a treasure.

Of course, there are also people who try to transport the lantern out of the tomb, but once the lamp leaves the lamp base, it will go out, and often trigger the mechanism in the tomb, causing the lamp to go out and people die.

In the twenty-fourth year of the Dou State calendar, the two countries of Hei Dou fought fiercely in the Huaikou area, and the army of the Black Kingdom rushed into a temple, disbanded the people in the temple, and dug and robbed many graves. When they were digging a tomb, they found a burning lamp, and the owner of the tomb had died 1,200 years ago. The lantern is becoming more and more mysterious in the eyes of tomb robbers. In the thirty-second year of the Dou State calendar, the imperial thieves found a burning lamp in the tomb next to the Changling Tomb. This tomb is said to be the tomb of the daughter of a politician at the end of the previous dynasty, this person died in the first year of the Dou State calendar, this tomb is next to the capital, no one has touched it at all, and the emperor did not go to rob the tomb, just to find a thing. Apparently, this lamp burned in this tomb for 31 years! What's even more interesting is that the corpses in the tomb are immersed in an unknown liquid that looks like they have just died, and it turns out that the ancients used this liquid to preserve the corpses. But the thief couldn't figure it out.

These lanterns are just a few of the many discoveries found in the entire Central Plains Continent. Archaeological records show that this phenomenon of ancient temple lights or ancient tomb lights has been found in various parts of the Central Plains continent, such as Dou Kingdom, Hei Kingdom, Ju Kingdom, Xiliang, Beichen and many other countries with ancient civilizations, and even Linghan Island, Fox Island and other places have also appeared.

Such a miraculous lantern could not be preserved in any case, and the ancients did not pay enough attention to the lantern they found? In fact, the ancients did have the ability to preserve these magic lamps, but it is strange that these lamps, once they appeared, were destroyed in some way very quickly, such as by savage marauders and diggers, and then extinguished as soon as they were taken out of the tomb. Could it be that the ancients were using some kind of magic spell to keep their technology secret?

In the middle of Dou Taizu's reign, near Lingcheng in the western part of Dou Kingdom, a soldier of the royal Lingcheng camp stumbled upon the entrance to an ancient tomb. After making his way into the tomb, the young man did not find any of the gold and silver jewelry he wanted. However, what surprised him even more was that there was a burning glass lamp in this isolated tomb, and in addition to his surprise, he took this mysterious lamp out of the tomb and gave it to a temple in Lingcheng, and the monks in the temple were also dumbfounded, this lamp has been burning for at least a thousand years. They kept it like a treasure, but a few months later, an old abbot accidentally dropped it on the ground and broke it.

Another interesting story happened in Judu, Ju Kingdom, where a mysterious and unusual tomb was opened. The person who opened this tomb found that a lamp hung from the vault of the tomb that illuminated the entire tomb. As the man walked forward, part of the floor vibrated as he walked. Suddenly, a statue in armor that had been fixed began to move, holding some kind of weapon in its hand, moved to the lamp, and the weapon in his hand was outstretched and destroyed the lamp. This precious lamp was destroyed in this way.

Time and time again, the purpose of the ancients has been achieved: the mystery of the lamp has been kept so tightly guarded that no one will ever know about it again. But whose masterpiece is the everlasting lantern? How does it work?
