Volume 3 The Ghost Boat of the Sand Sea Chapter 75 The Tomb Pond

"Not ordinary people? Is it still a prince and minister? You can't explain it! Jar said.

Xu Yunshu said: "Of course it's not the princes and ministers, even in the Central Plains, there are examples of concubines being buried after the emperor's death, and there are many of them!" ”

"Are you saying that these burial companions are Gega's concubines?" The jar opened his mouth wide and looked very surprised: "Seventy? That's too much, right? ”

"Not necessarily all concubines, there are also relatives!" This time I picked up the words, "Isn't there a painting on this?" Gega was killed because of the mutiny, so can the rebels keep his clan blood? Waiting for them to take revenge on Gega? Don't forget to 'cut the grass without removing the roots, the spring breeze blows and grows'! So of course one is not left, so these skeletons should all be Gega's relatives, children and people close to him! ”

The altar looked suddenly realized: "If you explain it like this, you can say it in the past." ”

Jin Yuxiang took over and said, "Then let's go on, can we reach the main tomb of Gega?" ”

Xu Yunshu said: "It should be like this! ”

The altar looked up at the cave again and said, "This Gega is not very much! will be opportunistic and use natural caves to make tombs for himself, he wants to save trouble, but after all, he is the king of a country, which is too perfunctory, right? ”

"What's the matter?" I asked the jar.

"You look at Qin Shi Huang in the same period as him, they are also monarchs, you look at people, not to mention other Qin Shi Huang's mausoleum covers an area of dozens of square kilometers; Look at the funeral again, I went to Xi'an two years ago to see the terracotta warriors, that spectacular! And that's just the inner and outer city! This is a dungeon that has not been excavated yet, and if it is dug up, it will not shock the world! The altar then glanced at the sarcophagi, and said, "Look at this place again, it's like a heaven and an earth, and there is no comparison!" ”

"Aren't you talking nonsense! How can you compare it like this? "I glanced at the jar.

At this time, seeing that Jin Yuxiang and the others had already moved on, Tanzi and I hurriedly followed.

While walking through the altar, he asked: "You said that this rebel army is also very interesting, you said that you killed them all, why do you want to cut off their heads?" ”

I said to him, "Didn't you say that cutting off your head before you die will keep your soul intact!" ”

"That's right, everyone has been killed, what do you care about his soul?" The altar said, "Let me go, so that I will not cut off their heads, and I will not only kill their people, but also scatter their souls, so that I will not turn into evil spirits after death." ”

"Why are you so inhuman?" I said, "People say that 'people die and pay off debts', but it's good for you, the hatred when you are alive will be counted until after death, and you are too tasteless, right?" ”

"Without further ado, do you still have water there?" The jar came at me.

I shook the empty bottle in my hand at him, and said angrily, "You don't know how much water I have?" ”

The jar belongs to the type that has no heart and lungs, and his water has long been drunk. Although I am more economical, the water saved can't hold me and the jar to drink together, so the water bottle has long been empty. Now I and the altar are already feeling thirsty, although it is still far from the same level as when we were lost in the desert, but if we continue to do so, it will develop like that sooner or later. However, compared to Lop Nur, the biggest advantage now is that there is no sun, besides, if you are really thirsty to a certain extent, the mountain walls and ground in this cave are still slightly damp, licking it, how much can you relieve the feeling of thirst, right?

I was secretly thinking about it, and the guy in the jar had to run to Xu Yunshu, and he had to ask people for water with a hippie smile. But what he didn't expect was that Xu Yunshu's water was almost drunk. Now, our team of only eleven people remains, and only Che Dong and Huo Ming still have some water left in their hands. They have developed a body that has survived in the wild all year round, so they have to reduce their water intake as much as possible in such harsh conditions, but the reduction does not mean that there is none, so they will not last long.

As we walked, our eyes suddenly narrowed, leaving only a two-person-wide aisle. But the environment in this corridor is completely different from the previous one. We used to walk in the cave all the time, but now the walls on both sides are smooth and edgeless, and the floor is as smooth as a mirror, so you can tell that it has been artificially retouched. In this way, we are more certain to be closer to the main burial chamber.

However, this is not the same as the large-scale tombs we imagined, I have also seen the Ming Tombs in Beijing, which has the main tomb chamber in the corridor, the front hall, the middle hall, and the main hall. But there is only one road here, and one road leads to darkness.

Suddenly, our eyes widened. In front of it is a circular cave hall, very large, with a diameter of nearly 200 meters. We scanned the cave with a searchlight, and found that except for the very middle, the rest of the place was empty, very empty. As for the height, we looked up and again, and we couldn't see the presence of the top at all. In the center of the cave hall is a very large pond with a forest in the middle of the pond that stands in the water. When I saw this burial chamber, I felt that I was indeed in an ancient tomb, but when I looked at this forest, I was a little dramatic, and I felt as if I was outside.

"What's going on? Isn't this a grave? How can there be vegetation greenery? The jar was the first to cry out, "This ancient person is too environmentally conscious, right, and has been planting green plants indoors since 2,000 years ago?" ”

We slowly approached the pond. The owner threw a stone and tested the depth of the water, but only heard a deep "clang" sound, which showed that the water in the pond was very deep.

"It's at least five or six meters underwater!" Che Dong asserted.

"I don't think it's a small pond anymore, it's a small pool!" Hu Yunting said.

The forest in the middle of this waterhole is, on closer inspection, actually just a tree. It's just that the trunk of this tree is particularly thick, and it is roughly estimated that there are not ten or eight people who can't be embraced. The trees were leafy, and the canopy stretched out like a canopy, obscuring most of the cave roof. It may be due to the fact that the branches are too large and too long, and many branches hang down from the tree and fall into the pool water, plus the banyan tree is able to grow aerial roots on the branches, and these aerial roots can also grow small trees of different thicknesses when they fall into the water or in the soil. From afar, it looks like a forest.
