Chapter 86: Same Thing, Different Versions
Guo Ye hurriedly asked Xiao Fei beside him: "Brother Xiao, what do you think?" ”
Xiao Fei looked at the left side of the passage and said: "If there is still the strength of a battle on the ground, it is not good for us in this environment, we can only escape, I suggest you return, otherwise once you encounter an attack, there is a high probability that you will be completely wiped out." ”
Hearing this, the hearts of these people brought by Guo Ye were all nervous, they had already seen the horror of the big snake, if even Xiao Fei said that they could only escape, then they really didn't have the qualifications to escape.
"It's all here, I'm really unwilling to go back, I see that the terrain here is not complicated, the end on the right side seems to be the main tomb, let's go and see it first, if it's really dangerous, it's not too late to evacuate."
Dr. Gu shines a flashlight at the bottom of the passage on the right and sees a circular stone door with a relief of the Serpent King.
Everyone agrees that no one will be willing to return at this time.
At this time, the mercenary who had just gone to investigate came back and said, "Boss, there is a dead end on the left, and the excavation has stopped halfway." ”
"There is a stone door at the bottom of my side, which should be the main burial chamber." Another group of mercenaries said.
Yang Ying looked at Guo Ye and asked for his opinion, Guo Ye waved his hand and said, "Well, let's go." ”
Soon everyone arrived at the round stone gate, there were two huge snake reliefs, in the middle was a brave man wearing armor and holding a two-handed sword, this sword was exactly the same as the golden two-handed sword held by the headless corpse seen in the projection just now.
Professor Zhang carefully shone the big snake with a flashlight, and said in surprise: "There should be no country that believes in snakes here, why do snake-related things appear here again and again." ”
"Professor, could this be one of those great snakes' lair?" Lin Xiaofei also became nervous, after all, the trace just now was too scary.
"I don't rule it out." Professor Zhang was also scared, thinking of the encounter along the way, plus the mountain bag was full of Qom snakes, it was not wrong to say that it was a nest.
Hearing this, Guo Ye, Yang Ying, and Liao Yunfei's faces changed, and they all picked up their weapons, and looked behind them at the same time, feeling that there was a pair of eyes staring at them behind them.
"What's wrong with you?" Seeing their expressions, Dr. Gu asked strangely.
Guo Ye and Yang Ying looked at each other the same, then shook their heads and said, "Maybe we are too sensitive." ”
"It doesn't look like there's any mechanism here, it's smooth on both sides." Lin Xiaofei touched the wall and searched carefully.
"This kind of mechanism is usually on the door? It has to do with reliefs. ”
Jiajia seems to be familiar with this? After fumbling around the two snakes, he quickly found the anomaly of the snake's eyes.
Let Lin Xiaofei next to him press the snake eye together? Sure enough, the door clicked? Then there was the sound of gears turning, and the round stone door parted to the sides.
Guo Ye immediately said: "Find something to jam the stone door?" lest they trigger the trap and trap us. ”
"There's it in there." Lin Xiaofei saw a stone pier with a big snake relief in the tomb? The same size as a bench.
He had barely lifted a stone pier in the past? After moving a few steps, he lost his strength, panted and said, "Your help is too heavy." ”
"It's time for you to exercise more." Jiajia laughed, Xiao Fei, Jiang Ziling, Yang Ying, Liao Yunfei and others quickly moved the stone pier over? Lined up in a row at the door? In this way, even if the mechanism is touched, at least it can prevent the stone door from closing.
After that, everyone looked at this tomb, and the appearance was exactly the same as the tomb above, but the content of the mural was different, and the appearance of the sarcophagus in the middle was also different.
Looking at the style of this sarcophagus and the reliefs on it? Dr. Gu said excitedly, "That's right, that's it?" This is the style of Loulan Kingdom, and we have found the main burial chamber. ”
Professor Zhang said strangely: "Is there another version of the mural here?" The mother gave her young daughter to the innkeeper, and the sister was taken away by the king to become a noble princess.
My sister knows her background when she grows up? Choosing to enter the Royal Palace? Become a maid by the princess's side? Look for a chance to meet your sister.
As a result, she met the prince of Khotan and fell in love, but she knew that the prince of Khotan liked his sister who was a princess, and she was unhappy, but she was reluctant to let go.
So at night she pretended to be a princess, dated the prince, prevented the prince from seeing his sister, and became himself again during the day, getting along with the prince, and both of them talked about each other and fell in love with each other.
Later, the kingdom of Loulan and the Rouran Khanate went to war, and the prince helped the kingdom of Loulan to victory, and the king was grateful and married the princess to him.
The younger sister knew that she could no longer stop the prince from meeting her sister, and she was very sad and afraid of losing the prince.
When the prince and his sister were newly married, the younger sister was desperate and used the witchcraft left by her mother to summon the ancient snake king, wanting revenge.
As a result, the prince came back that night, and he courted his sister to move her, but because of the summoning of the serpent, she did not live long and had to refuse the prince.
She tries to kill the serpent before she dies, but before she can do it, the angry princess takes her sister away to take revenge on the prince by lying to the prince that she has killed the maid.
As a result, the prince committed suicide by martyrdom, and the princess did not expect the prince to be so affectionate that she was jealous of the maid, so that she gave the prince's head to the maid, and decided to sacrifice the maid as a sacrifice at the sacrifice ceremony.
Seeing the prince's head, the younger sister was grief-stricken, hated her sister's ruthlessness, and on top of the sacrificial ceremony, she used her own life as a sacrifice to curse the people of the whole country with witchcraft, and all those who were cursed would be hunted down and killed by the snake king until there was no longer one in the entire Loulan country. ”
This is the end of the mural, and Jiajia laments: "Jealousy is really a terrible thing, if one of the sisters could have taken a step back at that time, there would not have been this tragic end." ”
Jiang Ziling was puzzled: "Why is there two different contents of the same tomb for the same thing, if it is a princess who builds a tomb for the prince, there should be no content here, judging from the construction style and murals, this tomb was not built at the same time." ”
Dr. Gu nodded in agreement and said, "That's right, the rock materials here are also different, and the tomb below was built later. The tomb above was originally the tomb of the prince, but it was later moved, and the top became a trap for tomb robbers.
The water and mirror image in the sarcophagus above are just a mechanism set up to confuse the tomb robbers. ”
After that, they began to study the sarcophagus in the middle, which they tried to open the lid of, but it didn't move, it was locked by the mechanism.
The other reincarnators all stared around, and experience told them that monsters would definitely appear, and it was impossible for the tomb to be without monsters.
Ye Muchen watched the reactions of these people silently, he could only follow these people, and walk in the depths of the real Death Desert behind, without these people to lead the way, he would definitely be lost in the desert.
But you can't tell them what you know and ask them to speed up, which will make these people suspicious.
If all the reincarnators are hostile to him, it will seriously affect his safety, at least here there are Xiao Fei, Jiang Ziling, and Du Deming who can threaten their lives.
These people searched together for a few minutes, and finally Jiajia found the mechanism at the bottom of the sarcophagus, and after turning, the lock inside the coffin lid was closed, and then Xiao Fei removed the coffin lid.
"Found it, it is very well preserved, the head is really not, carved from a stone, wearing a helmet, it is the prince of Khotan." Dr. Koo cried out with joy, for for there was nothing more exciting for them than to discover this.
"There are many burial objects from Loulan and Khotan, there are no tomb thieves here, and the whole tomb is very well preserved, which is great."
Professor Liang squatted next to him and kept looking at the funeral goods, and seemed to have found something valuable, and it could be seen that he was also very excited.
Everyone looked at the things here, the reincarnator just glanced at it and didn't care, while Guo Ye and Jiajia obviously showed disappointed expressions.
When Dr. Gu was wearing gloves and taking out the first burial object in the sarcophagus, suddenly there was a sound of gears turning from the stone door, and then the stone door crashed with the stone pier.
This frightened everyone, and they were relieved to see that the stone gate was successfully stuck.
"It's good that we prepared in advance." Professor Zhang deliberately looked at the stone pier that was firmly clamped, and made sure that it would not come out before he put his mind at ease.
But in addition to this stone gate, they also heard the rumbling sound of the stone gate moving from the passage outside.
Yang Ying pointed to the other side of the passage and said, "There is still the sound of the stone gate moving over there, let's go and take a look." ”
"Well, let's do it together." Guo Ye was no longer interested here, and he didn't have what he wanted, so he naturally went to the next location to have a look, and Jiajia and the reincarnators also followed.
