19. Split up

Yan Jun opened the kettle and handed it over, and suggested by the way: "Professor, I'm good at mountaineering, do you see if we should divide into two ways!" ”

"I'll take a few soldiers with the teacher to explore the way, and you, Sha Lipeng, and Xiao Ye will rest here for a while?"

"Hey, Xiao Yan's proposal is good, I think it's feasible."

"It's... Well, but this tomb has not been stolen or excavated, so you have to be careful. ”

After Hao Jianguo agreed, Professor Chen nodded in agreement, after all, it is supported by communication equipment and is easy to connect.

"Professor, teacher, I'll go too!"

Ye Yixin suddenly got up and said that she had brought a camera and wanted to take pictures with her to record the process and details of the excavation of the ancient tomb.

Sha Lipeng also wanted to go, but he wanted to stay and take care of Professor Chen, so Hao Jianguo agreed with Ye Yixin's opinion.

At the moment, Hao Jianguo led the team, Yan Jun and Ye Yixin were assistants, protected by Zhao Senjun and 3 soldiers, and marched towards the ancient tomb.

Without Professor Chen's hindering, the speed of travel was much faster, and with the help of the climbing rope, Yan Jun only took ten minutes to go down to the target location.

Looking around, I saw fallen trees, scattered rubble, and the mess left behind by landslides.

"Looks like this is it."

Yan Jun searched for a little and found something behind a huge rock several meters square.

It was a two-person wide crack, extending four or five meters up and down, and the thickness of the mountain wall was more than two meters, and a lot of earth and gravel collapsed at the mouth of the crack.

Yan Jun picked up two pieces of gravel and looked at them, and saw that they were no different from the rocks here, but the surface was smooth and smooth, and the traces of artificial polishing were very obvious.

Throwing the stone away, he swept the crack with a wolf's eye flashlight.

It may be the effect of the difference between the inside and outside of the light, although the flashlight shines in, but nothing can be seen clearly from the outside, it is a dark and deep cave.

"Ding! Congratulations to the host, who successfully joined the Xishan Archaeological Team, and the reward: double the space capacity of the system! The rewards have been distributed as ordered, please check by the host. ”

"Ding! A new mission will be released below, explore the ancient tombs of the Warring States within 6 hours, and protect the members of the archaeological team from casualties, and complete the reward: randomly open a system function. ”

"Ding! Post a task, please pry open the coffin of the main coffin of the Warring States Ancient Tomb, and complete the reward: God-level lottery chance. ”

Yan Jun's heart tightened, and he said secretly: This is actually a Warring States Tomb, and looking at the content of the task, I'm afraid it's not simple...

"Huh~ Brother Yan, I have long seen that you are not an ordinary person, but I didn't expect to be faster than me, a soldier, it's really amazing."

Yan Jun was thinking about how to complete the task, and Zhao joined the army and came down, he was tired and panting, and expressed his admiration for Yan Jun's physical fitness and mountaineering skills.

"Where."

Yan Jun smiled slightly, and said: "I have a specialization in the art industry, I have been interested in outdoor adventures since I was a child, and trekking through mountains and rivers is commonplace. ”

"Hehe, you intellectuals just can speak, don't call Zhao Deputy squad leader, it's weird, call me an army, my comrades-in-arms all shout like this."

"Okay, comrade army, if I can visit the grave with you, it can be regarded as fighting side by side, and make up for a lot of my brother plot, haha."

"Don't say it, it's a pity that you're not a soldier!"

The two chatted for a few words, and the relationship instantly became closer.

Until Hao Jianguo and Ye Yixin also climbed down, Yan Jun asked everyone to rest in place for 5 minutes, check their respective equipment by the way, bring their mountaineering helmets and gas masks, and then enter the crack.

Zhao Shenjun took out the walkie-talkie and informed the mountain of the safe arrival of everyone and the preparation for action, but he didn't expect that it was Professor Chen who replied.

"Little comrade, you must pay attention to safety, in addition, if you really find ancient tombs and cultural relics inside, don't move around, and exit the same way after exploring."

"Okay, we got the teacher."

After Hao Jianguo replied, Zhao Shenjun put away the walkie-talkie, put on a gas mask, pulled the bolt with a "bang", waved his hand, and led a little soldier into the crack!

Yan Jun copied a mountaineering pole in his hand and followed closely behind, followed by Hao Jianguo, Ye Yixin, and two other warriors in the back.

The crack was not deep, and I walked carefully for about three meters, and as soon as it was dark in front of me, I completely entered another space.

After getting used to the lightlight of the mountaineering helmet, he was able to see Yan in the distance.

Yan Jun was stunned for a moment, but was pushed by Hao Jianguo behind him and staggered a few steps forward.

As soon as the goods came in, they let out a cry of surprise and muttered, "Oh my God, this is really an ancient tomb!" A well-preserved tomb! ”

"Yes, teacher, if the news here spreads, it will definitely shock the entire archaeological community!" This is Ye Yixin's voice.

Yan Jun ignored them, and instead searched around with the help of helmet spotlights.

There was no coffin in this burial chamber, apparently only a side room, but the space was very large, much more spacious than the main burial chamber of the general's tomb.

Under each wall of the burial chamber, there is a stone platform, on which are piled with gold cups and silver cups, jade and agate, bronze objects covered with black and green patina, black, white and red pottery vessels, and so on.

Yan Jun estimated that there were hundreds of them!

The walls around the burial chamber are decorated with frescoes depicting narrative scenes, with fine work and vivid colors.

"Oops, these murals must have recorded the deeds of the tomb owner during his lifetime, Xiao Ye, let's illuminate it, you take a picture of it quickly, otherwise it will be oxidized in a few days."

As soon as Hao Jianguo saw it, he was attracted by the mural, and while beckoning Ye Yixin to do something, he looked at the wall obsessively, as if trying to interpret the message in the painting.

He's meowing, why doesn't this guy move, Lao Tzu has a time limit!

Yan Jun was speechless, and the light in his scans suddenly dimmed, as if something had swallowed the pillar of light.

He took a closer look, and found that there were several steps diagonally opposite the crack, and there was actually a passage above the steps!

His heart moved, and he said to Hao Jianguo: "Teacher, you take your time, I and the army will go to explore other places. ”

"Uh-huh, you guys go ahead." Hao Jianguo didn't look back and agreed.

Yan Jun was speechless again, so he had to give Zhao Senjun a look.

Zhao Senjun realized instantly, raised the flashlight with his left hand, and held the 56-style frame on his left wrist with his right hand, and walked in front in a standard search posture.

"Slow down, a large mausoleum like this, eighty percent of them have anti-theft measures, although we are the children of the official family, but those organs do not recognize people."

The two of them were afraid that there would be a hidden weapon, so they were careful every step.

But as soon as he stepped on the last step of the stairs, Yan Jun suddenly saw a black shadow in front of him, and something rushed straight to the door of the two of them!

"Lie down!"

Zhao Senjun roared urgently, and the 56-style conditioned reflex in his hand was raised, and "pop papa" was a burst of shots!

"Whew."

The black shadow let out a jackal-like scream and fell to the ground!

Yan Jun hurriedly used a flashlight to shine it, but saw that there was no shadow of any creature on the ground, only a pool of blood, which extended along the passage into the depths of darkness.

He frowned and asked, "Great army, do you see clearly?" ”

"It's like... Black dogs? It's too fast, I can't see it. Zhao Senjun let out a sigh of relief, and his tone was not quite sure.

In addition to military acting, this was the first time he fired live ammunition at a living object, and when he saw the blood on the ground, his nervous hands were trembling.

Yan Jun patted him on the shoulder, and then said, "Brother, relax a little, you are so easy to get angry." ”

"Xiao Yan, are you all right? Why do you shoot? ”

The others also gathered around when they heard the gunshots, and seeing that the two were not injured, Hao Jianguo looked at Yan Jun.

"Teacher, there are beasts in this tomb."

Yan Jun told everyone what had just happened and reminded everyone again.

"This ancient tomb has a lot of space, I'm afraid that before we come in, it has been used as a lair by some fierce beast, everyone must be careful."

"Is it really a beast? It can't be those things..."

As soon as she heard that there was danger, Ye Yixin's face turned pale with fright, and she subconsciously leaned over to Yan Jun's side.

Yan Jun said to her: "Don't be afraid, I have a windproof horse lantern in my backpack, so I won't be afraid to light it for you." ”

After speaking, he took out the lantern from his backpack, poured in kerosene, lit it, and handed it to Ye Yixin.

In this environment, the light of the flame is far stronger than that of a flashlight, and a small flame actually illuminates the surrounding range of four or five meters, bringing a great sense of security to everyone.

Hao Jianguo looked at the blood stains on the ground and hesitated: "Comrade Xiao Zhao, you are the operational commander, tell me your opinion, can we continue to explore?" ”
