Chapter 0584 - Elephant Bone Book
This question has been haunting my heart, lingering for a long time, but at the beginning, the eight calves of the king of Ebony made a moth for me, and then the matter of Princess Jincheng, which suddenly distracted me, and I ignored this stubble for a while, and now I came back to my senses and asked about this bust.
Tsing Yi and their group are dusty, and I guess that after separating from us, they must have gone through something to finally come to this underground space.
The Lock Dragon Cave should be nearby, but the ancient tombs here are vertical and horizontal, and I don't know how many ancient princes and nobles are buried under Qilian Mountain, and it is not easy to find a Lock Dragon Cave in this layer of ancient tombs, so I should pay attention to every bit of clues, and if I consider it comprehensively, I don't have to waste too much Zhou Zhang to find the Lock Dragon Cave, so I am extremely interested in what happened to them in Tsing Yi.
Sure enough, as soon as I asked, Bai Wushu and Xuanchen showed a different color on their faces at that time.
At this time, the fat man and a few of them also came back to their senses, and one by one they were like chickens in soup, and the water on their bodies was "lala" down, but their eyes were all focused on Yi Shiting and them.
"yes, why did you forget this stubble!"
The fat man slapped his head and asked, "How did you get here?" ”
"From inside an ancient tomb!"
Yi Shiting smiled bitterly: "When I met the snowman, several of you were washed away, and the last brain entered the canyon, and then after the avalanche, the canyon was buried by the falling snow, the snow was very loose, and it was very deep, almost a sea of snow, we couldn't get in at all, one step down, immediately half of the body was gone, the second step out, the whole person was immediately gone, I walked in the front, the experience was very deep, the canyon was no longer able to go, the snow at the entrance of the canyon was more than three meters, If Tsing Yi hadn't grabbed me in time and dragged me out of the ice cave, I'm afraid I would have become an ice sculpture under the snow!
That canyon can't get in, and we don't know your good luck, and we can't do anything for you, so we can only hope that a few of you are lucky!
I can't find you, so I have to continue the mission, right? As soon as we put a few of us together, we decided to continue looking for the Lock Dragon Cave, and the canyon couldn't be walked, so we went straight up the mountain along the steep mountain wall next to the canyon!
You've seen the mountain wall, you couldn't climb it before, it's full of ice and snow, but the avalanche caused by a few of you is convenient for us, the ice and snow on the mountain wall are all swept down in the avalanche, the mountain is exposed, not particularly slippery, you can climb. A few of us climbed up Qilian Mountain along the mountain wall. ”
Speaking of this, Yi Shiting wiped her sideburns, and under the evaporation of underground water vapor, a layer of fine and dense sweat beads had emerged there, and then she said with palpitations: "The mountain in this plateau area really can't be climbed, that mountain is too terrible, and a few of us can climb it definitely with a will to survive!" ”
I listened with horror in my heart.
I have seen the mountains on both sides of the frozen canyon, especially the cliff of Qilian Mountain next to the frozen canyon, which is almost 80 degrees above the ground. If you accidentally slip your foot, you will immediately have to fall into a mess of rotten meat, no suspense!!
"And then?"
I asked Yi Shiting, it seems that their journey is not easy, we can meet here, there is creation, more luck!
"Climbed the Qilian Mountain, and then descended to the top of the mountain where we were, it was a low snowy valley, probably because you caused a big avalanche, and the valley was also affected, the snow and ice cracked, and then a few of us found some fragments of objects in the collapsed snow and ice!! There were pieces of leather from the saddle, and some pieces of armor and arrows......"
Yi Shiting frowned and said: "At first, I thought it was an ancient battlefield, after all, the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau has not been very peaceful, in ancient times, there were too many wars between pastoral areas for water and grass, or between various tribes, but when I carefully checked those scattered fragments, I was sure that it was not left by the war at all, the arrows were very new, and there were no dark red traces in the blood groove, and the fractures were all due to natural weathering, not human factors at all!" Therefore, I was immediately sure that there should be an ancient tomb in the valley, and the fragments of the saddle, arrows, and armor were all bare to the surface of the burial goods!
In order to confirm my thoughts, I drove the Luoyang shovel into the frozen soil under the ice, and the soil I brought up really had fragments of the top of the tomb!
What kind of ruins are in the Suolong Cave, don't we know anyone? It must be underground near that frozen canyon anyway! A few of us just had the idea of giving it a try, and we made a thief hole and entered the ancient tomb!
Outcome......
Not to mention, we really found out!!
Before we went in, someone had already entered the ancient tomb, and looking at the traces left, it should have been not long before we entered!
Moreover, the one who went in before us cleaned almost everything in the tomb!!
Look at the traces left by that person, the yin qi does not disperse, and it is obviously dirty!
Taken together, we suspect that the one who went in before us is an immortal corpse!!
The place where the immortal corpse walked, it was definitely the place that led to the Lock Dragon Cave, and a few of us immediately followed patiently.
Because the things in that ancient tomb were cleaned up by the immortal corpse, we almost didn't encounter any danger, even if there were occasionally one or two fish that slipped through the net, we didn't have to worry about it, we dealt with it with our fingers, and we turned that ancient tomb upside down very calmly!
It's a pity that I'm not you, and I don't have the kind of cultural accumulation of your Ge family, so I can't thoroughly understand the mysteries in that ancient tomb, and I don't even understand which dynasty it is, because I really don't know much about the customs and tombs and cultural history in Tibet. “
Speaking of this, Yi Shiting suddenly buried her head in her backpack and rummaged through, and after a while, she suddenly took out a black cloth package, handed it directly to me, and said in a deep voice: "That tomb, the owner of the tomb didn't have any moths, but the grievances of the funeral were a bit big, and it seemed to be making trouble, but they were all solved by the immortal corpse." And the owner of the tomb, the coffin has not been touched, the coffin nails are intact, and then a few of us opened the coffin in order to investigate, and then found this in the arms of the tomb owner's bones, it seems that the tomb owner is quite cherished, and when he died, he was held on his chest! This...... It seems to be a book, but unfortunately I'm not an expert in this area, so I can't recognize the text on it, but fortunately, I ran into you, you can take a look! ”
Book?
Needless to say, my attention has been attracted by this black cloth wrapped in something, this thing is heavy, I am afraid that there are three or four catties, and it is extremely hard to pinch, not like an ordinary book, I immediately opened the black cloth, and suddenly, a bone book came into my eyes!
It's really made of bones, I knocked it, no accident, it should be made of the largest piece of flat bone on the yak's skull near the bridge of the nose, the polishing has been quite flat, it seems to be finely crafted, there are about a dozen of these bones in the whole book, the left side is punched, and then fastened together with metal rings, which is somewhat similar to our current calendar.
Made of yak bones, it can basically be shown that this bone book should be the product of the ethnic groups on the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau.
On each piece of beef bone, there are engraved with a lot of dense small characters, it is not too much to say that it is a small word, it is hard to imagine how it was engraved in the first place!
I took a magnifying glass from Zhou Jing's backpack to barely be able to see these small characters clearly, and I was also confused at the time - because I didn't recognize this word at first, to be precise, I didn't remember what the text was at once, I just felt a little familiar, and I stared at it for a long time before I finally faintly determined.
"How?"
Xuan Chen asked me with some concern on the side: "Can you decipher the content of this bone book?" ”
"Difficult!"
I let out a long breath and said with a wry smile: "If I'm not mistaken, this should be the ancient elephant Xiongwen!" ”
