"Look, we're here!"

After a long day of trekking, everyone finally saw the faintly visible ancient ruins in the distance, although most of them had been submerged by the wind and sand, but it was completely different from the desert next to it.

The originally exhausted group of people came out of nowhere, urging the camels to run in the direction of the ruins.

Everyone has a smile on their face, and there's nothing in the desert like water to reassure and excite.

But the excited people did not include An Liman, he knew that it was still unknown whether there was water in the ruins, even if it was a long-term water source, it had been twenty years since he last came.

Twenty years can make a newborn child grow up, not to mention that a small water source in the desert is really flooded by wind and sand, it is not surprising.

"Old man An, where is the water?" Running over in one breath, Wang Fatzi's thirsty throat was about to smoke, and he asked anxiously.

An Liman glanced at it, and fell on the temple-like building in the center of the ruins, and said, "There is an old well inside, and the water is in it." ”

"Okay!"

The fat man did not hesitate to pick up the bucket and rope, and was about to run in to fetch water, but was stopped by Hu Bayi, he was not as reckless as the fat man, there are usually animals in places where there is a water source in the desert, maybe there will be danger, it is better to take a gun and go in and investigate.

Soon the fat man ran out in a hurry, and the undisguised joy on his face told everyone that there was really water in it, and An Liman was also slightly relieved, he was really afraid that this last hope would be dashed.

Although he repeatedly told everyone not to drink too much at one time, everyone still drank with a swollen stomach before stopping, and they were really thirsty a while ago.

The sun sets, the moon is in the sky, the cloudless desert starlight is extraordinarily bright, the cool breeze blows at night, making people feel very comfortable, everyone lies on the yellow sand and looks up at the starry sky, it seems that this is no longer the depths of the desert, but a holiday beach.

"Ahh I've never felt so good alive! The fat man shouted, full of emotion.

"You're pretending to be a poet?" Hu Bayi said with a smile.

"Ahh

Suddenly, Hu Bayi looked at the starry sky and exclaimed, quickly got up, ran to the tent, and rummaged in his bag.

"Lao Hu, what's wrong?"

The fat man also ran over, not understanding what he had suddenly gone mad about.

There was no need to look at it, Qin Luo knew that Hu Bayi had deduced through the Heavenly Star Feng Shui technique that there was a big tomb under the ancient well, which was the tomb of Prince Gumo in the original plot, and this tomb also pointed out the specific location of the exquisite ancient city for them.

Shirley Yang also noticed that Hu Bayi was holding a compass and making random gestures, guessing what he might find, and leaning over to take a look.

After a while, Hu Bayi set his sights on the dilapidated temple.

"Old Hu, how is it? What did you find? Shirley Young asked.

"According to the Tianxing Feng Shui technique, there should be an ancient tomb under the ancient well, and it is an ancient tomb of a very noble person." Hu Bayi didn't hide it either, and said bluntly.

Soon, Professor Chen and others also knew about Hu Bayi's speculation, and immediately decided to take a look at this ancient tomb.

"Oh, you don't want to be like this, we can find water with God's blessing, don't do anything that offends God, otherwise there will be big trouble!" Anlimin, as always, objected to their excavation of the tombs.

However, as always, Amliman's objections did not work, and the next morning Hu Bayi climbed down with a rope to investigate, and sure enough, he found two stone doors sealed with animal skins underneath.

According to Professor Chen, the skin of the sealed stone gate is peeled off when the animal is alive, and sealed on the stone door while the blood stains are not dry, which can play a good sealing role, and because of the unique dry climate of the desert, it still looks very intact.

Professor Hao Aiguo and his students carefully removed the hide, for fear of damaging this precious artifact.

The stone gate is not too high, Lao Hu and the fat man pry open a crack with a sapper shovel, and push hard, and the dusty ruins that have been sealed for hundreds of years are opened again.

Boil! Boil...!

As soon as everyone walked in with gas masks, the left and right sides lit up violently, and rows of braziers ignited automatically, making a crackling burning sound.

"Don't be afraid, this is ignited by the principle of flammability of white phosphorus, which is a very common way to release it in ancient tombs." As an old archaeologist, Professor Chen can see the doorway at a glance.

"Ah~!"

As soon as everyone's hearts were put down, Ye Yixin's scream was frightened again, and he subconsciously retreated.

"Don't be afraid! It's dead! ”

Hu Ba was also startled when he shone a flashlight, but he quickly saw that it was a dark red human skeleton tied to a stone pillar with iron chains.

"This ...... Why so many? Wang Fatzi turned the flashlight around, even if he had always been a fool, he changed color slightly, and behind the two rows of oil lamps were dark red skeletons bound by iron chains, and some of them were also dropped in the air, which looked extremely terrifying.

Professor Chen was well-informed, walked over with a blank face and took a closer look, and finally sighed and said, "These should be slaves or death row prisoners who accompany the burial; When they were alive, they were tied up in the desert and exposed to the sun, first dying of thirst, and then their bodies were dried before they were moved here to be drenched in animal blood as burial offerings. ”

"Humph! Damn the old society! Hearing that these people died in such a cruel way, the fat man couldn't help but curse loudly.

Everyone else also sighed, it is true that in ancient society, especially the tribes far away from the Central Plains Dynasty, slaves are no different from animals, and even their status is not as good as animals, so there will be all kinds of cruel burials.

However, they did not have time to empathize with the ancients, and Professor Chan immediately instructed his students to conduct an expedition to record that the discovery of a tomb of this magnitude in the depths of the desert is of great significance to archaeology.

"Strange!"

Walking around the tomb, Hu Bayi couldn't help frowning, this ancient tomb was too weird, because there was no coffin here at all, and even he felt that he didn't want a tomb at all, but it looked like a temple.

As an archaeological expert, Professor Chen also found this, and was also very puzzled, according to the Tianxing Feng Shui, this is indeed a burial place, but in fact there is no coffin, and there is no corresponding burial goods, except for this group of slaves.

"Oops! What is it? The fat man was almost knocked down by something under his feet, and subconsciously went to see what it was.

Surprisingly, there were four pull rings hidden on the floor, and this floor was slightly different from the others, and everyone immediately thought that it was a secret door.

After a lot of busyness, there was a real ancient tomb under the secret door, which instantly confirmed that the result calculated by Hu Bayi's Tianxing Feng Shui technique was correct.
