The hands of the watch pointed at 2:30 p.m., and although the sun above my head was out of my sight, there was still light streaming through the cracks.

The three caves in front of me were only five meters or even less than five meters away, and I didn't need a strong light to see the whole inside. Since the structure of the crack is different from the top of the cliff as it goes down, I didn't find any of the three caves when I looked down from the top of the cliff.

The depth and humid air made the moss on the cliff in front of me denser and denser, and the feeling of being touched by the moss, and the cool feeling that is unique to this depth, became more and more intense.

The three caves on top of the cliff opposite me were also covered with moss, spreading from the cliff wall to the entire cavern. Even the swarthy coffins that the three opened the lid of the coffin were almost swallowed up in moss, leaving only the darkness that was still exposed near the lid.

The hallucinogenic sensation of the bewitching flowers just now was so strong that I confirmed it again and again before I was sure that what I saw was not a hallucination.

The plant with its red and bewitching flowers at the root of the mushroom was less than ten meters above my head, and I could reach out and touch it if I wanted to. I try to keep my eyes straight so that I don't have the slightest chance of making eye contact with them again.

In fact, at the moment, my attention was completely drawn to the three black wooden coffins in the cave on the opposite cliff.

Judging from the structure of these three caves and the places where the coffins were placed, there is no doubt that they should be from the Han Dynasty. With the exception of the Han Dynasty, the rest of the dynasties did not have this form of tomb.

This kind of burial structure was only more popular in the middle of the Western Han Dynasty, and the burial form was called cliff tomb.

As far as I know, this kind of cliff tomb is represented by the Mancheng Han Tomb in Hebei Province and the Jiulongshan Han Tomb in Qufu, Shandong Province.

The scale in front of me was a little shabby, except that three rough caves had been dug out of the cliffs, which were not very regular, as if they had been dug out in a hurry.

The coffins in the three caves were placed in the same position, separated by stone walls, and the lids of the three coffins were two-thirds open, and they were also covered with moss.

At that time, countless questions arose in my mind, who did the opening of this coffin? Is it the tomb robber in the Emperor's Tomb?

I steadied myself and pulled my flashlight from the backpack behind me and headed for the other side. Although the three caves are rough, the shape and structure can be seen completely, and they are intentionally excavated to imitate normal houses, which once again proves that the three cliff burial forms are undoubtedly of the Han Dynasty, and only the tombs of the Han Dynasty will restore the size of the house before the tomb owner's life in the tomb according to the ratio of one to one.

I pointed the bright flashlight in my hand towards the lid of the three coffins, and found that there were no new traces of the moss on the lid of the coffin and the moss at the junction of the coffin's identity, and it was obviously not opened recently, so it was ruled out that it was the tomb robber who went down to the underground palace before me.

Judging from the degree to which the lids of the three coffins in the three caves were opened, it seems that it was intentional, because the positions where the lids of the three coffins were lifted were the same!

When I shone the flashlight at the inside of the coffin, the owner of the coffin made my mind thunder for a moment, and I saw a scene beyond my comprehension!

I saw that inside the three half-open coffins, the skeleton revealed was not human bones at all, but the bones of creatures much larger than human bones, and the huge skull looked like the corpse of some unknown beast! Except for the huge skull, the skeleton of the body is not too huge! On the whole, if the size of the skeleton is spliced together, it is only about one meter two high. With this body type, the coffin buried in the coffin is no different from the coffin of an ordinary person, which is why I did not see the difference in the body in the coffin at first glance. Because of my subjective consciousness, I first started with the coffin and observed it from the bottom up, which is my archaeological habit for two years.

Once you get into a habit, it's really hard to change.

In my two years of archaeological study and in all the ancient books I have read, only the burial of animals has been described, and the custom of burying beasts like this is unheard of!

This discovery also overturned many of my perceptions, and it was also the first time that I felt that there were many mysteries in the world I lived in that had not been discovered.

It took me a long time to get out of the shock! Before I reached the emperor's tomb at the bottom of the cliff, I was already shocked, and I didn't know what else to find in the mysterious emperor's tomb. Although I don't like archaeology very much, it doesn't mean that I don't have the spirit of exploration, and besides, I am surrounded by mysteries and innate curiosity, and all kinds of reasons have prompted me to take a series of actions now.

I don't know how the grave robber who arrived here before me felt when he saw the coffins of the three monsters buried in them, but I was shocked to think about it.

After much consideration, I decided not to try to jump into the three caves on the other side, the bewitching flower really gave me a bitter taste, I don't know what these three caves that appeared in the sky and the beast coffins inside the caves meant. I want to put aside my curiosity for a while, and going down to the dungeon is the main thing for this operation.

With this in mind, I began to concentrate on falling towards the bottom of the cliff, avoiding everything around me that would attract my attention.

Forty minutes later, I finally reached the bottom of the cliff.

Untying the rope and falling to the bottom of the cliff, I let out a heavy breath as if I had completed a great challenge.

It took about the same amount of time to get from forty meters to the bottom of the cliff as it did to reach the mysterious cliff burial place, which also shows that I have adapted to this kind of special forces-style landing. The rest of the distance was darker and more humid, except for the feeling of thicker moss tentacles.

I turned off the flashlight when I was about to reach the bottom of the cliff, because there was another person who came down to the bottom of the cliff, and I didn't want to be attacked before I reached the bottom of the cliff. In such a dark place, even if I am killed, no one will find out, and perhaps after a few hundred years, I will be treated as a new archaeological subject when I am discovered, and I don't want to burden the archaeological work of future generations.

Looking up from my position, the cracks at the top of the cliff narrowed the sky to only about five meters wide, and the blue sky was mostly blocked by the lush foliage of the cedar trees, and the long grass on the edge of the cliff was constantly swaying with the breeze.

At this moment, I felt as if I was out of the outside world, and I could feel the psychology of patients suffering from claustrophobia.

Leaning against the cliff behind you closes your eyes, and it takes some time for your eyes to get used to getting from a bright place to this dark place, and closing your eyes for a while and then opening them will help you adjust to the darkness faster.

Without the help of the flashlight, even if the eyes have fully adapted to the darkness at the bottom of the cliff, the surrounding scene can still only see the general outline.

I remembered the fire fold that my boss recommended to me when I bought the equipment, the fire fold is to use very rough clay paper rolled into a tight paper roll, and then blow it out after lighting it with fire, at this time, although there is no flame, I can see the red bright spots faintly burning, like an ember in the ashes, and can remain in the fire fold for a long time. When it needs to be ignited, it can be rekindled by blowing, but blowing is very skillful, it needs to be sudden, short, and powerful, and the air supply volume should be large.

This kind of thing is something that many adventure enthusiasts and archaeologists prefer, and I didn't expect it to be sold in a small county in Yongzhou City.

Later, I thought that since tomb robbery activities are rampant here, there must be a great demand for this kind of essential product for tomb robbers, and it is not uncommon to be able to buy it.

In the light of the fire, I found that my body was covered with patches of moss, and even the raised rocks under my feet were occupied by this cyan, and the surrounding area was empty, except for the cliff face. The light of the fire fold could not illuminate the whole situation at the bottom of the cliff, and as I looked around, I suddenly felt a wind blowing on my face.

In such a claustrophobic space, there are cliffs all around, and if there is a wind blowing, it must be blown down from the top of the cliff, and the wind I feel blowing on the surface is blowing horizontally, and the direction of the wind is to my left.

This means that there must be a gap on my left, and this gap is the entrance to the imperial tomb I am looking for.

Thinking of this, I moved the fire fold to the left, and slowly moved towards the place where the wind was blowing, the faint light could only clear the area of one meter in front of me, if someone on the crack saw down at this moment, they would definitely think that there was a ghost fire moving at the bottom of the cliff.

Fortunately, the whole length of the crack was only twenty meters, and the place where I came down was only about ten meters from the end on the left.

As I approached the wind, the feeling of the wind blowing on my body became stronger and stronger, and the flames of the fire fold in my hand were also shaking constantly, and they were not blown out under the protection of my semicircular palm.

It wasn't until I reached the position of the tuyere that the flame, which was not strong, finally couldn't resist the sound of the breath and extinguished.

My world fell into darkness again, the place where the wind blew out was about three meters away from where I was standing, and I could clearly feel the gap in front of me, and it had been a while since I went down to the bottom of the cliff, and I had long been used to the color of the moss around me, and the place where the wind blew out looked deeper and darker than the surroundings, and this deep darkness was about a meter high.

After much hesitation, I still walked towards the deep place, and sure enough, as I thought, there was a hole in front of me about one meter five high and one meter wide.

What puzzled me was that the cave entrance was surrounded by rubble, and the cave entrance was also irregular, and there was only one reason for the formation of the cave in this state, and that was to be forcibly blown open! Could it be that the second uncle and the first time they came, they blew up the hole with explosives?

Without hesitation, I got into this man-made entrance, and after about twenty minutes of walking on my waist, after turning a corner, a light came in from the other side of the hole!
