Chapter 347: The Underground Palace
The ghost blows the lamp world, and the ancient city is exquisite.
The door to the dark passage has been opened, as there is no light source inside.
It was pitch black when the flashlight shone through, only the place where the flashlight was lit was a little bright, and the rest of the place was not visible at all.
Because they didn't know what they were going to face below, everyone rested for a while, ate some dry food, and went down the dark path after they were fully prepared.
Walking to the end of the stone steps, a road with a width of five meters and a height of about three meters suddenly opened up in front of you.
The surrounding area of the corridor is no longer pitch-black stones, they are all piled up by the bricks of the Western Regions, and the top of the head is built into a round arch, and the walls are full of strange and bright murals.
The most common ones in the paintings are the eyes, both large and small, open and closed, some with only eyeballs, and some with eyelids and eyelashes. The eyes were regarded as totems, and the passage leading to the temple and painted with so many eyes that only rulers like the clergy and the queen were allowed to enter, and they probably hadn't used it many times since it was built.
Because this passage is too tightly closed and impermeable, the murals inside look very bright, giving people the feeling that they have not been painted for a long time.
Seeing this kind of treasure, Professor Chen hurriedly asked Shirley Yang to take a picture, and then asked Chu Jian to record the location and wait for future exploration.
At the end of the tunnel is a single stone pillar, and there are no portals other than that.
With such a hidden secret passage, it is impossible to have only some murals, so everyone split up to find out if they can find some clues.
Lin Chen was not in a hurry, after all, he had enough unpredictable prophets, and it was a little unreasonable to keep pushing it to observe carefully.
Without Lin Chen's participation, it was finally discovered by Hu Bayi.
As soon as the Celestial Star Feng Shui Technique came out, the mechanisms of these ancient tombs were all the same, and they could be cracked very easily.
Hu Bayi opened the mechanism, and then the brick wall at the end of the passage automatically opened.
The crowd streamed out of the passage.
Then everyone came to a dungeon, which was still very large.
We seem to be in the main hall of the underground palace, and the exit of the brick wall is behind a throne carved out of jade, and this dark wall is very exquisitely repaired, and it is completely impossible to see that there is a secret door behind the jade seat in the hall.
Finally, we arrived at this palace that once only existed in legends, and we used all the lighting equipment we had with us to see carefully, and we saw that the throne and floor of the main hall were made of jade. The chain of the lamp on the top of the ceiling had also rotted and broken, and had fallen to the ground, and there were still a few gerbils crawling in the corners, and it seemed that there was a lot of air in the place. In addition to some jade products, pottery, wood, iron, bronze, silk and other objects have been severely damaged by air erosion.
This made Professor Chen feel very heartbroken, these are the essence of the country.
The best preserved in the main hall belongs to the jade throne, the top of the jade seat is engraved with a red jade eye, the whole body of the seat is inlaid with gold and silver, carved with fairy mountain clouds, flowers, birds, fish and beasts and other things, the pedestal is a large piece of white jade like goat's milk, in the main hall with black tones, it is particularly eye-catching.
The underground palace of this exquisite ancient country is not as big as I imagined before Lin Chen, only the main hall is quite large, the side halls on both sides are relatively simple, the gate and stone steps of the front hall are sealed by sand, close to the gate of the front hall, a black stone top was destroyed by explosives, which shows that someone has entered this underground palace before, look at the damage and traces of the stone gate, it is not done recently, not to mention that it has a history of more than decades, it is likely to be the owner of the black and white photo, Now this gap has long been buried by the yellow sand.
Seeing the traces of explosives, Lin Chen saw Professor Chen's murderous gaze.
This is destroying the quintessence of Huaxia, if it weren't for this one being blown up and a hole, just with the air circulating in the underground river, this place would not have corroded so quickly.
After looking at the side halls on both sides, I turned to the apse, which was the resting place of the royal family, and there were several jade-fenced fountains, but they had long since dried up. The group looked as they walked, and Shirley Yang suddenly said, "Listen, is there the sound of running water?" ”
Everyone nodded, it has been nearly a thousand years, and this underground river has not dried up, which can be regarded as a miracle of nature.
Following the sound of running water, the group came to a cave in the apse.
The cave is very low, go down very deep, come to a natural stone cave the size of a stadium, although it is natural, but obviously after artificial trimming, the ground is very flat, there is a small underground lake in the hole, a convex ground rises in the lake, like a small island in the middle of the lake, only ten square meters in size, the flat lake is like a mirror, surrounded around.
The water here is excellent, and it is still cold, which is better than the well water drilled in the ancient well of the ancient city of Xiye before.
When the people saw the water, they began to drink it after they were sure that there was no problem.
Seeing that the fat man and Hu Bayi were also planning to go to the river, Lin Chen grabbed the two of them.
After all, the water here is often bathed by big rats, and who knows what viruses are on the mice.
After being stopped by Lin Chen, the two just looked at Lin Chen suspiciously, but they still listened to Lin Chen's persuasion and didn't drink the water in it.
Hu Bayi and the fat man didn't really need this little water, because when they were in the desert, Lin Chen would open a small stove from time to time, what a big watermelon, fruits and the like they could still eat from time to time.
But other people are different, Lin Chen's small stove is very secretive.
That is, the last time I took it out in front of everyone, I still didn't take it out in front of everyone in other places.
At this time, everyone found that the convex ground in the lake, I don't know when, has been crawled with a dense layer of cyan mayflies, there are tens of thousands of them, their bodies gradually become gray-white, one by one from the shell wriggling and crawling out, the molting insect body seems to have a lot of fluorescence, shining, as brilliant as the starlight, the insects stretch the wings they just get, and they can fly to the sky after a while.
At this moment, countless large rats rushed into the cave from all directions, these rats were not afraid of humans at all, they turned a blind eye to us people, jumped into the lake without hesitation, swept away, rushed to climb the convex ground in the middle of the lake, greedily grabbed the insects that had just withdrawn from their shells, and kept sending them into their mouths to eat.
Seeing this scene, Hu Bayi and the fat man couldn't help but shudder.
They knew why Lin Chen stopped the two of them from drinking the water just now, the bath water of the rats, and the bath water of the insects, if this Nima drank it, he would not vomit to death.
Then, a magical scene appeared in the underground palace of the exquisite ancient city.
The people who entered the underground palace of the archaeological team, except for Hu Bayi, Fat Man and Lin Chen, all the others were lying on the side of the underground river and vomiting.
It also includes Lin Chen's gold owner, Shirley Yang.
As much water as they drank just now, a group of them vomited as much water, and even Shirley Yang and Ye Yixin almost didn't vomit out the bile.
Professor Chen and Hao Aiguo were a little better, they just vomited nauseously for a while, and then nothing happened.
After all, both of them are old, and they don't have much taboo in this regard, unlike other young people, who feel very disgusting.
