Everyone looked at the black coffins, all of which were made of jet-black ancient wood, with a dull surface, very thick, and shrouded in a gloomy and cold atmosphere.

Moreover, there is a strange place about these coffins, they are not lying flat, nor are they erected, but stuck in a jade trough, standing diagonally.

Xu Ming shuddered a little, and he said nervously: "It seems that this Hall of Eternal Life is really a tomb, and this Earth Divine Palace and even the entire ancient city are big tombs. He continued: "I just don't know what the identity of the dead in these black coffins is, why are they so evil? ”

Everyone looked towards the end of the main hall, where there was a huge golden coffin, behind the golden coffin was a tall golden dragon chair, and there were some things, the momentum was extraordinary. Behind the dragon chair is a majestic gold lacquer wall carving, on which a coiled dragon is alive, and in the center is a strange fairy shape, with a terrifying face, countless arms, and a circle of difficult ancient texts around.

Zhou De looked at the black coffin and said, "If it is an emperor's mausoleum here, these coffins may be burial companions, or people buried together." ”

Gao Qin said: "Looking at the arrangement of these coffins, it should be the emperor who lies in the golden coffin, and the deceased in the other black coffins do not have the same status as the emperor, at most they are meritorious generals and relatives of the emperor." ”

Nanyang's expression was solemn and he said: "Although I don't know much about archaeology, the coffin that accompanies the burial shouldn't be so strange, right?" ”

Zhou De was also very nervous, took out the compass, and everyone suddenly found that the pointer began to turn around, without a fixed direction. Zhou De's face was gloomy, and he said: "Look at the image of the god in the wall carving, how can there be such an immortal in orthodox religion?" ”

Nanyang said: "You mean that this emperor believes in a cult? ”

Zhou De said: "Since ancient times, 'immortality' and 'feathering and ascending to immortals' have been the dreams pursued by the emperors, and they have used various methods to refine pills and seek medicine, worship gods and seek immortals, and there are countless examples. The temptation of immortality is too great for the emperors, and if there is a way to live forever, even the crooked emperors will try it. Therefore, it is normal for the emperor to believe in this cult. ”

Everyone continued to move forward, Gao Qin and Xu Ming lowered their heads to look for blood on the floor, and they cautiously walked through the black wooden coffins on both sides of the main hall and walked towards the end of the main hall.

Everyone walked to the end of the main hall, getting closer and closer to the golden coffin, and gradually approaching the side halls on both sides, Ah Hu held a gun, walking in the front, he looked at the side hall on the left, suddenly saw something, his expression changed, and he suddenly stopped.

The side halls on the left and right sides of the main hall are faintly flowing with brilliance, and everyone looks at the side hall on the left, only to see that the side hall is very spacious, like a large treasury.

The side hall is a square room, the walls are milky white jade, and dozens of rosewood tables are placed in the center, low on the outside and high on the inside, arranged in the shape of a tower. The ceiling was studded with glowing gems, shining like a galaxy of twinkling stars. On the wooden table are mountains of rare treasures, almost every one of which sparkles with a charming light.

Everyone was dumbfounded, no one had ever seen such a treasure, they had seen a lot of exquisite gold, silver, jewelry, and valuable cultural relics in the ancient city before, but they could not compare with the treasures here, not to mention that the priceless treasures here were piled up, like a vault.

On the wall of the side hall is a circle of wooden cabinets, on which are also placed all kinds of rare treasures, the light flashes, which is dizzying.

But what caught everyone's attention the most was that there was a man lying next to the wooden table where the treasures were placed, and a man was lying on his back on the ground beside him.

Both of them were dressed as villagers, the same as the person who had been cut off at the waist, and the man at the wooden table had been shot several short crossbows in the head and body, and the front chest had been shot through, revealing a sharp black crossbow tip, some blood stains on the ground, and several treasures scattered on his body, as if he had caught them. The person who fell to the ground on his back was slashed several times by a sharp blade, there were several deep wounds on his body, his arm was about to be broken, and it was unbearable to see, and there was a large pool of blood on the ground.

The crowd found that the treasure on the corner of the table next to the villager who had died with the crossbow had been moved, and it was scattered to the ground, rolling far away, and some even rolled into the main hall.

Both villagers were dead, but their bodies were not decomposed, their skin was pale, and their faces were somewhat deformed, which was very hideous and terrifying. The treasure and the corpse were mixed together, very eerie, everyone looked at each other, all a little nervous, Gao Qin looked at the floor, and found a pool of blood in front of him, intermittent, connected to the man who had been attacked on his back and died by a sharp blade.

Xu Ming added his lips and said, "It seems that this side hall is the emperor's treasure house, and all the treasures collected are stored here, these rare treasures are really amazing, very rare!" He continued, "The dead man with the crossbow must have tried to steal the treasure, but he triggered the mechanism and died. ”

Nanyang stared at the corpse and said, "What about the other person?" And how did he die? ”

Xu Ming said: "Could it be that the accomplices share the spoils unevenly, or want to monopolize this treasure, get into internal strife, and kill each other?" ”

Gao Qin shook his head and said, "Those treasures don't seem to have been stolen yet, how can there be infighting first, what's more, you see, there are also people who are injured!" ”

When everyone heard the sound, they saw that the floor of the main hall was covered with precious stones and colorful colors, and under careful observation, there were still a few blood stains.

When Zhou De saw the two deceased people in the side hall, he looked very excited, as if he was distinguishing something, but he seemed to be a little surprised. When Gao Qin found more bloodstains, Zhou De's face immediately became ugly again, and he was extremely nervous.

Nanyang looked at the bloodstains and said: "It seems that there are at least one or two more injured here, judging from the bloodstains, it should also be a cut and stab wound caused by a sharp blade, and the injuries are different." ”

Xu Ming said: "So, it was cut by the big knife in the hand of the statue in the front hall?" ”

Nanyang's expression was grim, and he nodded and said, "The wound on the body of the deceased who was hacked to death matches the bloodstained big knife. He continued: "There are other people here who have been cut as well. ”

Xu Ming said: "Something is wrong, if there is only one knife, how can these people attack each other?" Are these people snatching the knife repeatedly? ”

Nanyang said: "There is this possibility, but it is very strange, if this group of people killed each other because of infighting or other contradictions, why did they put the knife back after killing people?" Since someone had taken a big sword in the front hall, they should have been suspicious a long time ago, how could they come here to do it? ”

Gao Qin said: "Maybe it wasn't just a knife. There are so many statues in the front hall, and maybe there are blood stains on other knives, but they are relatively hidden, and we have not found them. ”

Xu Ming shook his head and said: "Senior sister, it's even more strange for you to say that, suppose this group of people took three or four knives, and then had a fierce fight, and everyone who should be killed was killed, so they threw the knives here, why bother to send them back, since they are here, what else is there to worry about?" ”

Gao Qin also pondered, although her reasoning was reasonable, it was unreasonable. If there is a mechanism hidden in the statue, it is unlikely that the knife must be in its place, otherwise the gang would have triggered the mechanism when they took the knife. Moreover, it is not known whether those sharp broadswords can actually be removed from the statue's hands.

Everyone thought for a moment, but there was still no good explanation, after all, there were still a few people who were missing in the ancient ruins, and they still needed to continue to investigate the matter.

There is also a branch hall on the right side of the main hall, and everyone carefully walked to the side of the hall, and saw that this side hall was exactly the same as the side hall on the left where the treasures were piled up, except that there were no dazzling treasures, but many antiquities were placed
