The passage was very long, and a dozen or so people, including their own soldiers, walked for half an hour before they reached a slightly more spacious place.

The same wall is made of stones, the top of the cave directly exposes the dome of lava geology, and there are still gems inlaid on it, the difference is that against the side of the cave wall, there are several bones leaning on it, the skin and flesh on the bones have been completely rotted, only the pale yellow bones and the original fabric on the body and the metal buckle on the leather armor remain.

Stepping over the crunchy bones on the ground, which were left by dead bats, Al Hesian kicked away the components scattered on the ground that should have been shields, and after carefully observing the pattern of the fabric and metal buckles for a while, pointed to one of the bones and said in a deep voice: "This is probably the early Kurdish leather armor style, if I guess correctly, this man died from a short spear pierced through the chest......"

"What about the others?" Lao Luo glanced at the broken ribs on the bones and nodded.

"These are probably Kushan people, and they like to have gems on their belts and scabbards, which was a custom during the Kushan Empire...... The Kurds were attached to Parthia for a while......" Al Hessen thought as he analyzed, as a university scholar, he was certainly familiar with more than just optics at his best.

"So these people broke into here after Alexander the Great died?" Lao Luo also understood a little, at least he knew that the Kushan Empire and the Parthian Empire were contemporaneous with the Roman Empire, that is, after the Macedonian Empire.

"That's right, they killed each other, and they all died in this cave...... Oh, this man is probably the last survivor, but he didn't escape, and he should have been bitten to death by a bat in the end, you see there are tooth marks on his bones! Al Hesine came to the final conclusion.

"Hey, Al, why do you know so much?" Stan, who commanded several of his soldiers to dig gems in the cave wall with daggers, interjected.

"I don't talk to bears, there's nothing else in your head!" Al Hesian glanced at the greedy fellow and asserted.

"Stan, you're going to read more, Al is the great sage who opened Helen!" Alki stood guard in the direction of the advance and helped the way.

"Hey......" Stan kicked the tattered Romanesque dagger on the ground, which was already full of serrations, and said in disgust, "I don't care about this kind of." ”

Apparently, Stan, who has a good weapon, has no interest in a broken weapon unless it is inlaid with gems.

"Alright, move on, guys, we're going to hurry up and try to finish the exploration before it gets dark." Lao Luo clapped his hands lightly and ordered decisively.

Despite its association with Alexander the Great, the Macedonian king of Macedon a millennium ago, it is not worth staying in such a place for long, not to mention the dry bones of the dead everywhere, and the mere smell of rancid air is unbearable. Although Lao Luo, who has experienced vocational training, is not afraid of this environment, there is no need to find guilt for himself, right?

Even if there is no so-called curse, God knows what kind of hellish bacterial communities can be bred in the cave environment that has been closed for thousands of years, and Old Luo Ke doesn't want to know at all.

In the spiritual power induction, the core area of the cave is still far away from the location, calculate the distance, it should already be under the mountain in the northwest of Kuzak City, and then go inside, the intertwined tunnel is not a fun playground.

As for the gems that Stan asked people to detain together, they were not worth mentioning in Lao Luo's eyes.

"Lord, wait a minute, I'm going to dig up these gems......"

"Stupid Stan, would you leave your most precious thing on your doorstep?"

The resentful look on Big Man Stan's face suddenly vanished.

……

The group began to move forward with a tap.

Further on, the space changes greatly, some places are narrower than a sheep's intestines, others are like a large square, and in the same place, almost all the flat stone walls have traces of murals painted with paint. Although the age has become less clear, Elhesion, who is familiar with the history and humanities of ancient Rome, is able to tell the story depicted in certain details.

Another similarity is the bones of dead corpses that can be found almost everywhere, the owners of these bones vary from place to place, some of them are difficult to tell even if they are of great origin, rusted swords and spears are not wanted, or Al has picked up a few of the dead and put them in the nets carried by his own soldiers - without the bat is found, this thing is a good net.

Speaking of moving forward, everyone except Lao Luo has lost their sense of direction, because most places are natural caves, of course, many key positions have been artificially built with many steps, and there are also some places that need to wade through shallow underground rivers, going up and down, left and right......

"Lord, what is this like...... Maze? Stan couldn't breathe when he didn't find the treasure he was looking for, the kind of cave that winds around is even more frustrating than the Black Forest back home.

"It's a labyrinth...... How do you think all those unlucky ghosts on the earth died? Because of the spiritual power as a guide, Lao Luo is not afraid of getting lost, and his tone of voice is naturally very relaxed. It's just that...... He frowned, Big Stan rarely had such a moment when he couldn't hold his breath, it seemed that treasure was really this guy's shortcoming.

"Are you exhausted?" Stan casually replied unnoticed.

"It's all starving...... "Old Luo's tone became a little eerie, "Stan, what's the matter with you?" Don't know what to do when you hear about the treasure? ”

Anyway, there are no outsiders around, and Lao Luo is not half polite when he should say it, even if it is the straightforward man he has always been optimistic about.

"I ...... I ......" Stan stammered and couldn't say a word.

"What is the treasure? Treasure is the one who can be useful to oneself to improve one's knowledge, but it's not worth dying to get it! Look at the bones lying on the ground, they are all confused by gold and precious stones! Do you want to do the same? Lao Luo was a little loud, he was a little bit of a pretext, and the purpose was not Stan alone, of course, but everyone around him.

Lao Luo has seen too many examples of brothers becoming enemies for hundreds of thousands of dollars in later generations, and he doesn't want a similar situation to happen around him, so he just takes this opportunity to knock it.

To tell the truth, if it weren't for the feeling that there was something in it that would be of great use to future development, and that he could use this thing to straighten people's minds, he wouldn't have come in looking for any treasure. There are already too many gold, silver and gems in his space.

It's not that standing and talking doesn't hurt your back, and it's not hypocritical, after having more gold and silver, Lao Luo really didn't feel that there was any extra use for this kind of thing that couldn't be eaten and drunk.

"General, I was wrong!" The biggest advantage of a straightforward and temperamental man is probably that he can change his mistakes, and he doesn't have to think about anything, and after realizing that his mentality is unbalanced, Stan stops to face Lao Luo and solemnly admits his mistakes.

Lao Luo didn't grasp the problem either, everything can be done, and he knows better than anyone else the consequences of overdoing it. Patting Big Stan on the shoulder, he stopped rambling and motioned to move on. The two-meter-old Rob is a head shorter than the two-meter-three Stan, and both of them are outstanding in height, but they don't seem to have any sense of dislocation.

None of the people who followed spoke, but their steps involuntarily became much firmer, and the worst physical strength of Elhesion was the most obvious, and it seemed that he was a little exhausted, but in the blink of an eye, he was full of strength.

Lao Luo recognized these people in his heart, and when he entered this cave, no matter what the result was, he adjusted the hearts of these people around him, and he could be regarded as having gained. There is indeed a shortage of people around him, a lack of talented people, but the heart is much more important than the talent, and the talent can be cultivated, and the heart is not good, so it is useless to cultivate.

……

Since it is a natural labyrinth, it is inevitable that there will be forks in the road, but Lao Luo didn't even hesitate, and directly led people to the target direction he sensed. The people around him didn't ask, but just followed closely and silently - their generals had never failed all the way, so what was there to doubt?

A place that is clearly more delicately decorated than others is presented to the public. The roof of the cave is at least four or five meters high from the ground, and it is densely inlaid with various precious stones, the walls are made of rubble, but they are smooth and smooth, even the gaps are very narrow, and they are painted with all kinds of tall figures or gods, and in the middle of the space is a circular altar, although there is no obvious sculpture, but according to the direction, even people who do not understand it can distinguish its function.

The surrounding walls are not coherent, but there are more than a dozen gaps, and there are steps at the gaps, and even something that is not seen elsewhere - a metal fence riveted into the cross structure, which is usually used in places like cells or warehouses.

"Stop, don't wander around, this place is full of traps!" Standing in a narrow gap, Lao Luo hurriedly stopped everyone.

In his psychic sense, there is only one path leading to the altar that is safe, and only one person can pass through, and the slightest deviation will fall into the left and right flap traps. The depth of the trap is at least twenty or thirty meters, and the bottom is full of spikes—a depth that would only be a dead word to fall in, even without spikes.

Don't expect the flap mechanism to be useless in disrepair, all the stone slabs are fixed with metal braces, and even if they are damaged, the result is the fall of the whole piece, which is no worse than the consequences of the flap.

"Bartol, it looks like this is it?!" Al Hesyn said, staring at the faint mural on the surrounding wall.

"Well, this should be a sacrificial hall, and if there are any treasures, they should be in those gaps. Antiano, pour the oil into the stone trough. Lao Luo pointed to a very inconspicuous groove on the side of the wall, from the analysis of the effect and location, that place is definitely a fire tunnel for lighting, although there is a fixed position of torches on the stone wall, Lao Luo can't understand how to place the torches on it. So if you want lighting, you can only choose the fire path.

As the oil was poured in and ignited, a line of fire burned around the entire sacrificial hall. The gems on the roof of the cave reflected the firelight, shining brightly, and the entire sacrificial hall was suddenly filled with an atmosphere of mystery.

"This ......" All the pro-soldiers, including Stan and Olki, grew their mouths and their faces were full of amazement, and even the well-informed sage of Al Hesion was dumbfounded.
