Section 93 The Demon Cave? Treasure! (below)
In the face of the jewels that are rare in the world, only Lao Luo, a guy from the flashy later generations, is indifferent. By the light of the fire, he noticed the overall environment around him, and he could tell which place he could settle down and which place was particularly dangerous.
The path through the altar was seventeen or eighteen meters away from the gap where everyone was, and no matter how good the bounce was, it was difficult to instantly cross the flap in the middle.
And it's a pity that even if he can use his mental power to find a path that can be crossed, he doesn't dare to easily step on the stone slab in front of him, because he is not sure if the metal support under the stone slab can withstand the trampling of many people. Thousands of years of corrosion, even the alloy is difficult to protect the metal fatigue internal damage, with one foot to test it, a little heavy pressure, I feel the support under the slate tremble.
Is it possible to cross the treasure mountain and not enter?
Lao Luo doesn't have that consciousness for the time being.
He focused his attention on the fire trough, which was carved out of the rock wall as a whole, the fire trough was located at the waist line of the wall, and below was a slope, and then there was the groove fixed by the stone slab support on the ground, and the transverse gap of the groove was concealed by the stone slab of the ground, but it could not change the existence of the gap. And this gap circumferentially circumferentially around the entire sacrificial hall, so the solution to the problem came.
Lao Luo's space happened to have iron plates less than one centimeter thick - that was a semi-finished raw material used to make shields, which could be stuffed into the gap to make a foothold distributed along the gap, and the fire groove and slope at the waist line could not accommodate people's footsteps, but could be used as a handrail.
Thinking of moving, there were a few sounds, and more than a dozen iron plates were thrown to the ground by Lao Luo, "Come and help, stuff these iron plates into the gaps in the corners, be careful!" ”
Lao Luo pointed and began to mobilize people's hands, the iron plate was not heavy, but it was not easy to stuff it into the gap close to the bracket, at least it was difficult for a guy of Lao Luo's height and weight to do. So the people who were chosen to do the work were a few skinny and nimble boys.
As for what Lao Luo suddenly came up with, no one cared at all, which of the soldiers around him and these soldiers didn't know that his general had a secret? Even a scholar like Al Hessin, who likes to get to the bottom of things, wouldn't ask questions casually. Along the way, this is not the first time that such a thing has happened, and the people around Lao Luo basically know that he can change things into things that he has not changed again, and he is naturally accustomed to it today.
Of course, it's not that there are no people who spy on Lao Luo's secrets, it's just that if the secret is in the hands of a weak person, it is a bane, but in the hands of a strong person, it is an arm, and Lao Luo happens to be that powerful person. Therefore, the people who snooped on Lao Luo's secrets were not worth mentioning at all, and they all became carrion buried deep underground.
With the physical skills of Lao Luo's own soldiers, it was really an easy and simple task to stuff a few iron plates into the cracks of the stones, and after only twenty minutes, the path to a distance of more than ten meters had been set up - the iron plates inserted into the cracks in the stones formed an alternating pedal along the stone wall.
At this point, it was actually very simple, everyone could easily step on the shield and go to the only passage, even the outstretched Elhesian and the overweight Stan. Of course, Big Man Stan was embarrassed to pass, because with his height he was holding on to the fire trough and stepping on the shield pedal, it was terrifying.
Then follow the narrow passage that can only accommodate one person to walk alone to the position of the altar one by one, and then bypass the altar to directly reach the gaps, as for the machine, crossbow arrows, rolling stones, falling wood, etc., along the way, they can be avoided because of Lao Luo's spiritual power induction. After all, Lao Luo is not the kind of amateur adventurer in Hollywood films, he is a cautious and well-rounded professional soldier, so there is no dramatic thrilling situation, although when they reach the altar, the braces of the movable flaps around them completely fall.
Standing in one of the gaps in the "treasure", Al Hess looked at the empty space under her feet and sighed, "I really don't know who built this place back then, and how many people were used to complete this ......"
"It's a pity that it's been too long, a thousand years, no matter how strong it is, it will rot." Lao Luo also looked at it and said expressionlessly.
It is indeed a huge project, especially for the Macedonians a thousand years ago, hundreds of square meters of space, except for a few passages, the rest of the place is empty, nearly thirty meters deep, in addition to stone thorns, iron thorns, and falling flaps, supports, and countless white bone phosphorus, no matter what their identity was before, now they are just sleeping together in the underground of this mountain vault.
Although the faces of the gods drawn with thick lines on the walls are a little blurry, they still have a kind of dignity from above, and they quietly stay on it and look down on the ups and downs of all beings.
……
"Don't scatter, everyone, follow me." There are six treasure troves worth patronizing, and the conclusion that Lao Luo got in the spiritual power induction, the remaining three are either traps or lead to other labyrinths.
"Pay attention, follow the footsteps of the general, don't look around, look at your feet!" Lao Luo was followed closely by Alki, stopping the two pro-soldiers who were a little chaotic, and he was also a little frightened after passing through the deep pit like a cliff.
Turning through a few obvious human excavations, what appeared in front of everyone was a rough cave gate, with arched teeth made of boulders, bronze door panels more than four meters high, and decorative thorn flowers and olive leaves painted on the sides, and the most conspicuous thing was two fierce statues of gods standing up to the sky.
"This is the evil spirit of the Macedonian legend who guards the treasure house, and is said to like to devour all greedy souls." With her gloved hand, Al Hesyn gently touched the rusty carvings on the door.
"El, do you like this? If you don't go back and take this away, you will be the door panel of the studio in the future......" Lao Luo hammered the "door panel" with his hand, but there was no movement, which shows the thickness of this door.
"Really?" Although he knew that Lao Luo had some mysterious skills, El Hesian was really not sure how far Lao Luo could go.
"Of course!" No matter how thick this door is, can it be as thick as the isolation door of the anti-nuclear facilities of later generations? It's a big deal to hold two or three tons to death, Lao Luo didn't take it seriously at all, "Come on, Stan, one person on the side, push it open, rest assured, there is treasure behind the door." ”
Stan Anderson's eyes lit up instantly, and the axe in his hand thrust behind his back, stretching out two huge slaps and pushing towards the door.
After Lao Luo finished speaking, he did the same thing.
The bronze gate is indeed heavy, and with Lao Luo's whole body strength of borrowing leg strength and waist strength, it can only be pushed open slowly, which is different from the strong men of later generations pulling cars, there are no wheels under the door!
Thousands of years of rust, the scroll pages of the gate are almost rusted, and the dull grinding sound is particularly harsh in this silent space.
Only pushed a third of the way, Lao Luo stopped, the gap in the middle was enough for three or four people to pass in parallel, and the brute force should not be used anymore. Looking at Stan's side again, the white face was already flushed, and even if a few soldiers went up to help, they only pushed the general away by a quarter.
But no one paid attention to the result at this time, and inside the gate, wisps of light came, not that there was any treasure such as a night pearl inside, but that there was still fire in the cave! The slightest ray of light is just a reflection!
As early as when Lao Luo first joined the army, he heard that there would be everlasting lights in the tombs in ancient times, which would last for many years. There is a legend that the corpse oil was used as fuel, and there are even more outrageous legends that the spirits of the martyrs were used as fuel, and once the tomb was stolen, the lantern would be extinguished, leaving a curse for the tomb robbers.
After a little stunned, Lao Luo suddenly realized that this was not a tomb, and there was a smell of burning sulfide in the air, obviously it was not something like a corpse oil soul, the reason why there was a fire was just to burn the oxygen in the air, and to prevent the corruption of metal objects with the help of inert gas.
"Come in, there's nothing to worry about inside, this is the biggest treasure trove, there are no traps!" Lao Luo, who walked into the door, said to the people standing behind him.
"Wow, baby!" The first to bear the brunt is naturally Stan, although he was reined in by Lao Luo on the road, but at this time Lao Luo spoke, he naturally had no scruples, and rushed directly into it, running to a "hill" about two meters square that was visible inside.
The rest of the people swarmed in with torches, and the organic spirits took out all the torches from their knapsacks, lit them one by one, and stuck them in the surrounding walls.
By the light of the fire, everyone realized that this was a space four or five times the size of the "temple" in Kuzak City, and it was full of all kinds of gold and precious stones and some miscellaneous objects of unknown origin. As for the drooling "hill" that Stan stares at, it's a mountain - it's a giant doghead in the shape of a mountain range!
Lao Luo also has to admire the vision of this Viking Viking, this guy's eyesight is simply beyond the times, you know, no matter the East and the West, ancient or modern, naturally formed gold is a priceless treasure! Wherever it is placed, it can be called a symbol of wealth!
Because of Lao Luo's words, the exhaustion of everyone's bodies was swept away, and even the scholar bearded man of Al Hesian began to wander around, sweeping in front of several huge gems, but I don't know if he was fascinated by the light reflected by the gems or thinking about how to cut and shape a few large gems.
The rest of the people were no better, Alki sat on a gray-black "round stone" on the ground, staring at the surrounding wood in a daze, and the group of soldiers were even more eager to roll among the gold and gems.
Even though there were a lot of gold and gems in the space, Lao Luo had to admit that these things were indeed fascinating, but he was not concerned about these things, but on a long wooden box placed on the high platform in the innermost part of the treasure house.
The size of the wooden box is about three meters long, one meter high, but the width is only fifty or sixty centimeters, the style of the box is a typical Western classical style, much like the treasure chest in some games in later generations, the production is very exquisite, all the border corners are made of bronze, although the wood in the middle looks inconspicuous, but has not rotted for thousands of years, it is conceivable that it is by no means the usual pine cypress. The sides of the boxes have handles suitable for hand, and the top is inlaid with a bronze carving, which is not very clear because of the poor lighting.
Lao Luo cautiously observed the appearance of this box, not to judge what art style, he just wanted to make sure that there were no inexplicable mechanisms on it, and it was wrong to accidentally capsize the boat in the gutter.
After making sure that there was no such thing as a bracket, Lao Luo gently broke the beast fastener on the box and lifted the lid of the box - it should be the weird thing that attracted him inexplicably. The moment the lid opened, Lao Luo was stunned.
