Chapter Fifty-Nine: Prince Gumo

"Let's open the stone door now, and remember not to destroy these skins when we use the knife." Professor Chen spoke.

Hao Aiguo listened to his teacher's words, and immediately took a knife and carefully cut the animal skin from the stone gate little by little.

After the hide was removed, the fat man and Lao Hu took the sapper shovel and began to pry the door.

"Boom!"

The stone gate suddenly made a rumbling sound and opened a large crack.

"Everyone, put on gas masks." Hu Bayi told everyone who was eager to try.

The stone door was opened, and there was no poisonous gas or anything inside, and what greeted me was a staircase, and it was dark inside.

Everyone walked in slowly, and just a few steps inside, the flame lamp in the tomb suddenly turned on!

"Didn't they all say that ghosts blow out the lamps, why has it changed here, and it has become a ghost to light the lamp?" Seeing this, the fat man couldn't help but joke.

Professor Chen smiled and explained, "This should be the setting of the fuel lamp lit with white phosphorus, which I have seen in many places. ”

White phosphorus has a relatively low ignition point and will spontaneously combust when exposed to air, so it is not an accident that an oil lamp is lit.

With these fires, the people saw the situation inside.

On those stone pillars, there were actually dried corpses chained one after another, and even the corpses revealed a look of struggle, which looked extremely cruel and terrifying!

"Ahh

Xiao Ye was startled and screamed.

"It's okay...... I'm here! Ye Chen patted the other party's fragrant shoulders with a warm smile on his face.

"Vomit ......"

Satipeng looked at these dead corpses, and felt a wave of nausea in his stomach, and he almost vomited out of his stomach.

Although Sydney Yang is a female streamer, she has no impact and is constantly looking around.

In the huge space, there are no coffins except for stone pillars and sacrificial platforms.

"Isn't this a tomb? How come there is no coffin? Sydney Yang looked at Hu Bayi and asked.

It doesn't really look like a tomb, it's more like a place for sacrificial activities.

"Most of the small countries in the Western Regions have the same custom, they will tie up criminals who have broken the law in the desert and die of thirst, wait for the corpses to dry completely, hang them on stone pillars, and then put the blood of slaughtered animals on the dried corpses."

Professor Chen said after careful observation.

"I just touched it, and there is nothing here except these skeletons of dried corpses, not even a broken jar or jar." The fat man also said helplessly.

He was still thinking that there would be some treasures in it, but it turned out that he was not as poor as his own backyard.

"I said Lao Hu, you can't just look away, or are you misremembering that book, this is really a big tomb?" The fat man also began to question Hu Bayi.

"According to my half-volume of sixteen-character yin and yang feng shui secret technique, there must be a big tomb for that kind of auspicious astrology last night, and it is impossible to only have this sacrificial hall." Hu Bayi shook his head and said.

"There must be a burial chamber, but it may not be here, and if it really doesn't, then we can only try underwater." Hu Bayi affirmed.

"You don't have to go underwater, the burial chamber is here."

Ye Chen, who had not spoken, attracted the attention of everyone in the audience as soon as he spoke.

I saw Ye Chen come to the sacrificial platform, stomp his feet vigorously, and the dust around him shook back, revealing an uneven thing inside.

After the dust is removed, there is something similar to a doorknob inside.

And there was not just one, and there were four of them.

Clear-eyed people see that this is a secret door, and there is absolutely no hole in the ground of this sacrificial hall!

Ye Chen didn't stretch out his hand this time, the fat man, Lao Hu, Sa Dipeng, and Professor Hao directly removed the stone.

"Teacher, there's really a layer underneath this, you see!"

Seeing that there was really another space down there, Professor Hao Aiguo suddenly became excited.

Everyone took a flashlight and shone it inside, but it was pitch black inside, and they couldn't see what was inside for the time being.

However, the excitement of the crowd was already written on their faces.

"Comrade Hu Bayi, you are really a genius in the archaeological world, you said that there is a tomb below, he really has a tomb, you really know too much about the tomb, you don't come to practice archaeology, it's a waste of your talent."

Professor Chen's old face was particularly excited, not only did he really discover the tomb, but at the same time, he was also deeply impressed by Hu Bayi.

"Sa, go get the ladder." Lao Hu instructed Sati Pengdao.

After a while, Sadipeng came over with a ladder and a couple of glow-in-the-dark sticks.

"Let's go down and have a look first, the fat man and I will go down first, and everyone will go down one by one." Hu Bayi.

Everyone suppressed the excitement in their hearts and nodded.

After following the ladder into the tomb, they found that there was no danger of the mechanism, and the fat man and Lao Hu breathed a sigh of relief.

Immediately afterwards, Professor Hao Aiguo excitedly descended from the ladder.

Ye Chen went down to the tomb at the end of everyone, but he didn't use a ladder and jumped straight down.

The burial chamber was illuminated by the luminous rods that had just been thrown in.

"Professor Chen, look at this tomb, this seems to be the burial form of the ancient Western Regions literati people who have been lost for a long time!"

Professor Hao Aiguo was so excited, holding a flashlight as if he had discovered a new continent.

"Teacher, look, look at this coffin, it's specious, nondescript, it's really amazing!"

The burial chamber is actually small, with a strangely shaped coffin in the middle, and murals carved into the surrounding walls.

After a while, Professor Chen also began to explain in detail to his students.

"This ancient tomb should be a small country among the thirty-six kingdoms of the ancient Western Regions, and it is also a vassal state of the Exquisite Ancient Kingdom, they are oppressed, and they have to sacrifice a large number of treasures and cattle and sheep slaves to the Exquisite Queen every year."

"The artists of these murals are highly skilled, and they are full of magnificence and expressiveness, and even without the gaze of words, the content of the murals is clear and vivid."

"We can clearly understand the events and people in the paintings directly through the murals."

Professor Chen looked at the murals on the wall and began to analyze: "This is a brief description of the prince of the ancient tomb who asked to see the Queen of the Exquisite and wanted to reduce the taxes of his subjects, but the Queen of the Absolute refused to meet him. ”

"Prince Gumo is the incarnation of the sun god, he infiltrated the country of the Absolute Perfection alone, and wanted to assassinate the Queen of the Absolute Spirit, but discovered a secret of today."

As he spoke, Professor Cheng frowned: "This painting is really weird. ”

When everyone heard this, they also carefully looked at the murals on the walls.

In the first few paintings, the Absolute Queen is veiled, but in this painting, the Absolute Queen is just a silhouette.

In the latter paintings, the description of the Exquisite Queen changes instantly, the Queen lifts the veil with one hand, and there is a person like a slave opposite her, which gradually becomes blurred after looking at the Queen.

The man, perhaps a slave or an assassin or something, had been killed by the Queen's strange means.

"This queen is a banshee." Sydney Yang opened coldly.

"Miss Yang, do you mean that the person in this sentence disappeared because he saw the queen's face?" Hu Bayi said.

"Yes." Sydney Yang nodded.

The fact that the Exquisite Queen would die at a glance was heard by Sydney Yang in the legends of the ancient kingdoms of the Western Regions.
