Chapter 43: This Is Not a Mausoleum
"Hey, I admire you now that you dare to go into this hellish place alone." Looking at everything in front of him, Zimeng couldn't help but gasp and give Tianyou a thumbs up.
Tianyou looked at Zimeng, who was teasing him, and slowly explained: "You also think too highly of me, I don't even know how I fell, and I almost didn't fall to death, and after I came down, I found that there was a bright light in front of me and followed the bright light, if I didn't have this sword in my hand, I wouldn't dare to be so prodigal." ”。
"What light?" Zhou Fan listened to Tianyou's explanation and was suddenly puzzled, although when they first came down, they also found some faint light, but they could basically ignore where Tianyou saw the light.
Tianyou nodded at Zhou Fan and said, "That's right, it's a bright light, I got closer and realized that it was the bright light emitted by the bluestone steps, the hole was open when I came in, and it closed automatically not long after I came in." ”
"The entrance is open? Did anyone come in before us? It's impossible. Hearing Tianyou's words, Zhou Fan suddenly fell into deep thought, he couldn't figure out why Tianyou came down to the cave was open, but they came in but closed.
Could it be that someone came before God blessed? Or is this the original mechanism like this, thinking of this Zhou Fan instantly cheered up his spirits, after all, in this dark and weird place, if there is still someone hiding in the dark, don't think about it, it must be the kind of ill intentions.
"You don't suspect that someone came in before us." Tianyou saw Zhou Fan's expression, and he didn't need to ask, in fact, he knew what Zhou Fan was thinking.
"I'm not sure, it's just that it's too weird here, and who can guarantee that the ancient well of Zhaozongfu is the only entrance? Maybe somewhere else will have an entrance into this place. Zhou Fan shook his head and said uncertainly: "And this place doesn't look like a tomb at all." ”
"You see something." Zimeng listened to the conversation between the two, lazily sipping a cigarette, and was about to fall asleep, which aroused Zhou Fan's curiosity.
Zimeng heard that this may not be a tomb, which means that they have not found the real tomb yet, which means that he still has a chance to find the treasure, and when he thought of this, Zimeng's eyes suddenly lit up.
Knowing what Zimeng's bastard was thinking, Zhou Fan didn't pay attention to him, he looked at everything in front of him, and after a while, he made a new discovery, Zhou Fan glanced around, and suddenly found that in the middle of the two stone statues, there was a raised bluestone slab.
If it weren't for his careful observation, it would not be easy to find, seeing this, Zhou Fan immediately stepped forward slowly, and the cat leaned over to observe the bluestone slab, and Tianyou Zimeng on the side also noticed Zhou Fan's strange movements.
When I got closer, I immediately felt my head pierced, and I saw a bluestone slab of less than one meter, covered with dense words, which seemed to be an inscription, which was a unique inscription in the Western Zhou Dynasty.
This kind of writing is also collectively referred to as "Jin Wen" in the historiography, which refers to the inscriptions cast on the bronzes of the Shang and Zhou dynasties, also known as Zhong Dingwen, but strangely, the inscriptions are generally only engraved on bronzes.
And in addition to the bronze used in the sacrifice and burial, it is generally not easy to cast inscriptions on the bronzes, and the inscriptions on the bronzes are to record the person's life experience and merits, and the other is to highlight the nobility of the person who was buried.
Those bronzes engraved with inscriptions are generally used for funeral ceremonies, and in the Shang and Zhou dynasties in ancient times, non-princes would not engrave inscriptions as funeral objects.
Therefore, in some archaeological programs we have seen, and in some tomb robbery movies, the bronzes with inscriptions are generally the tombs of princes and generals, and the movies are all world-famous tombs.
But the ordinary civilian tombs will not appear in the movie, because the bronzes with inscriptions will not appear in the tombs of the people of the Shang and Zhou dynasties in the slave society, and of course, some high-ranking officials and nobles in ancient times are not excluded.
Tianyou and the two gave up decisively after looking at it for a while, because except for some ghost-like patterns that could barely see some tracks, it was really equivalent to reading the Book of Heaven.
The two of them followed Zhou Fan's waist and watched for a while, they were already dizzy, and now they were standing behind Zhou Fan, no longer observing the stone slab, as for Zhou Fan, they still watched it with relish, almost to the point of forgetting themselves.
"Huh" Just when Tianyou and the two of them were a little impatient, Zhou Fan exhaled deeply, and before he changed his senses, Tianyou hurriedly asked: "How do you see something?" ”
Obviously, Tianyou and Zimeng were also very anxious, although Zimeng was silent, but his eyes betrayed him, Zimeng, who usually didn't care about anything, saw that Tianyou was also short of breath after asking, and his eyes were staring at Zhou Fan.
"I can probably see a little bit, but there are many things I don't know, and I don't study ancient texts very thoroughly." Seeing the anxious expressions of Tianyou and the others, Zhou Fan knew that they were eager to know the record of the inscription on the bluestone slab.
After a pause, he took a deep breath and said: "The inscription tells a story, recording how the Yin Shang Dynasty fought the world and the origin of their clan, but it is just ......" Speaking of this, Zhou Fan paused, Tianyou and Zimeng had the previous lesson, and they no longer bothered Zhou Fan, but quietly waited for him to continue.
Sure enough, Zhou Fan was quiet for a while and then said: "I just don't understand, why did I mention the land of the dragon again?" "And the whole inscription doesn't say why such a place was built here, and there is no writing about this place being an ancient tomb."
"If you say so, it's probably not an ancient tomb at all." Tianyou thought about Zhou Fan's words and analyzed them all over.
"I'm not sure yet, and there are some things I haven't figured out yet." Zhou Fan shook his head and looked at the inscription on the bluestone slab again.
Zimeng saw Zhou Fan again, and began to stare at the broken stone slab, and immediately felt helpless, but he didn't dare to disturb him, and looked left and right and found that this place was actually not small, even a third larger than the space the size of half a basketball court above.
Looking at the empty space, Zimeng couldn't help but feel a burst of curiosity in his heart, and with the faint light, he walked in this empty underground space little by little, not knowing whether Zimeng was born with a broom star, or if he was really so lucky.
As soon as he was halfway there, he accidentally stepped on a raised stone slab, and in an instant the entire space resounded with the sound of rumbling chains, and Zhou Fan, who was carefully watching the inscription, was taken aback by this sudden sound.
Before he had time to see what was going on, the bluestone slab in front of him slowly sank in, and in the blink of an eye, it disappeared into the ground, as if it had never appeared, and Zhou Fan didn't care about it when he saw the slate sinking into the ground.
Turning around, he found that only Tianyou was standing behind him, but Zimeng was nowhere to be seen, and hurriedly asked, "Where is Zimeng?" What's going on. The deafening sound of chains around was still ringing, and Zhou Fan vigilantly pulled out his ancient sword and watched everything around him carefully.
Tianyou realized that Zimeng didn't know when he was no longer around, but he didn't dare to move around at will now, and shook his head at Zhou Fan to say that he didn't know either.
Seeing Tianyou's expression and thinking of the fact that the slate sank into the ground and Zimeng couldn't see it, Zhou Fan instantly had the answer in his heart, and he yelled at the air without thinking about it: "You bag, where is your temperature for me." ”。
Sure enough, with the sound of rumbling chains, Zimeng's voice came from the other end of the space: "I'm here." As soon as the words fell, Zimeng muttered to himself: "As for me, I still greet my mother." But apparently Zimeng didn't dare to say it.
Because after hearing Zhou Fan's inhuman roar, he also knew that he didn't know what he stepped on just now, and then the whole space would suddenly change, Zhou Fan must have discovered this, so he shouted at him regardless of the dangerous environment.
As soon as Zhou Fan's words fell, the light of the flashlight instantly shone on Zimeng's side: "I'll roll over with your lungs." ”
Although Zhou Fan's gritted teeth made Zimeng very unhappy, he still walked towards Zhou Fan honestly, after all, now in the face of the unknown situation, it is better for the three of them to converge together, lest the three of them are too far away to be saved.
"What the fuck are you doing?" didn't wait for Zhou Fan to ask Tianyou to lose his temper, and the sound of iron chains was still ringing around, but it didn't affect the close conversation between the three of them.
Zimeng just wanted to explain, but saw Zhou Fan wave his hand, and suddenly the flashlight shone on a corner of the space, only to see that with a rumbling sound, a huge iron ancient coffin slowly descended from the middle of the corner, and the black iron chain tied the four corners of the coffin, and slowly descended from above.
"What the hell is this place, doesn't it mean that this is not a mausoleum? How can there still be a coffin? Zimeng didn't have the heart to explain anymore, and exclaimed as he looked at the huge iron coffin that was slowly lowering.
"Zhou Fan, you, look...... There's also a coffin over there. Tianyou was shocked enough to see a coffin, but he didn't wait for him to recover from the shock.
Suddenly, a huge wooden coffin appeared on the other side, and now Tianyou even spoke with a trembling voice, this was no longer something they could understand, and now this scene was no less than when they bumped into the Yin Soldier, and even worse.
Zhou Fan looked at the slowly descending iron coffin and the wooden coffin emerging from the ground, and the hand holding the sword also oozed a lot of sweat, staring at the two huge coffins on both sides of the southeast, his heart pounding.
