Twenty-four murals
How is this possible, she and I are standing side by side. The candle lit by the beard in the back lingered in the corner, and the candlelight imprinted my shadow at the foot of the coffin, and stretched it long.
Ali was right next to me, and there was no shelter behind her, so it was impossible not to have a shadow.
I only felt a cool breeze on my back and jumped out, and I didn't feel anything else, because it was so sudden, I didn't have time to react, but I reflexively took a step away from Ali.
Ali also noticed that there was no shadow under her feet, and stood there as if frightened, looking at me at a loss, with a look of helplessness and pleading in fear, which made people very uncomfortable.
Folklore has it that only ghosts have no shadows. Could it be that Ali is already dead, and now it is her soul that stands in front of us.
I turned my gaze to the flying mirror, he was a ghost hunter and what he should know.
But Feijing looked uncomfortable, saying that he had never encountered such a situation. He said that it should be a problem with the refraction of light, and that this big girl could not be a ghost.
Ali nodded gratefully when she heard him say this, as if she had grasped a life-saving straw. I also agree with Feijing's words, after all, Ali is my friend, if she really has three strengths and two shortcomings, I can't get over it in my heart.
I approached Ali and asked her if she was uncomfortable. Ali said she didn't feel any discomfort. I could see that she was still very concerned about the fact that she didn't have a shadow, and grabbed my hand one by one. You can even feel her trembling clearly on her fingers.
We discussed for a long time and couldn't deduce how this was caused, why did the shadow of the person disappear for no reason?
We didn't know the result, Hu Zi and Yang Xiaoqi had been thinking about the coffin at this time, and there was no surprise when they saw us. He immediately threw himself into the procession of the bearded coffin.
We had to stand up and hide to the side, lest anything really happen in a moment.
The two of them were very efficient, and we could barely help. After a few minutes or so, the sound of a clockwork sounded.
The beard yells - it's done! Then he quickly dodged with Yang Xiaoqi and hid to our side.
In the silent burial chamber, the sound sounded for about a dozen seconds, which was enough to see how complex the mechanism inside was. When the sound stopped abruptly, the coffin suddenly placed a 180-degree semicircle in place, leaking out a stone staircase that went down.
This is a result we didn't expect, there is still space under the coffin. We poked inside, and a peculiar musty smell permeated, and I choked on a cough to get past the initial smell, and then we had no choice but to head down.
We've seen it all over the place, and there's no Ayumi's figure. In this case, it is likely that the girl has entered the bottom of this passage.
Do we Yang Xiaoqi want to open the coffin above and see who is buried inside?
Yang Xiaoqi shook his head and said: "Look at it like this, the above is to hide people's ears, there must be a very powerful mechanism in the coffin, it is better not to open it." ”。
The beard was walking in front, and when he heard Yang Xiaoqi say this, he immediately echoed: "Xiaoqi is right, the coffin above is indeed dangerous." One thing is strange, though. ”。
Feijing hurriedly asked, what's the difference?
Beard looked at the passage down, waved his hand to make us pause for a while, and said, "I also figured it out just now, I don't know if it's right." Say it, you can help me advise, if it doesn't make sense, it's me farting. ”。
The tone of the beard is serious and low. I was nervous again by him, and I looked at the crowd and asked the beard to continue.
Beard nodded, waved his hand to stop for a moment, and then said very seriously: "I always feel that the owner of the tomb here seems to have deliberately let us in here. ”。
What do you mean by that? Yang Xiaoqi asked.
"You think, it's an indisputable fact that this is a burial mound, and that so many ships can be connected through underwater passages, and that the person who made such a mechanism must have studied the art of obscenity. With such a powerful character, the passage we built is not too simple.
Don't say anything else, let's just talk about the coffin above, why does this entrance appear after we open it, is it really our technology? No, I think eighty percent of the tomb owners here deliberately let us in.
What do you think? ”
After the beard finished speaking, he finally threw the question to us. Yang Xiaoqi frowned and didn't know what he was thinking, Feijing looked at everyone and asked Hu Zidao, "You mean, shouldn't this Hundred Tombs of the Princes let us in so simply?" ”。
The beard nodded and said yes. The owner of this tomb seems to have given us a chance to come in when he built this place.
After the beard said these words, we were speechless for a long time. Is this a possibility? The tomb that was built with great painstaking efforts is like hoping to be stolen in the end.
I don't really understand the idea.
Seeing that we were silent, Hu Zi spread his hands there and made a helpless expression and said: "Anyway, I just think that the tomb here is a bit abnormal, not a dangerous abnormality, but an abnormality in construction." Okay, let's not think about it yet, let's move forward slowly, and maybe we can find something as we go. ”。
After he finished speaking, he began to lead the way in front, and we followed him behind.
Thinking about it carefully, what Hu Zi said just now is not unreasonable, and it seems that we really haven't encountered any decent danger along the way. It's not that I have a tendency to look for abuse, but I think it's not normal, it's very abnormal.
It's like a well-designed bank, but it's not secured. Just waiting for the robbers to go.
It's a fitting analogy, and that's it. There are no deadly traps in any of the tombs here, and for a grave robber like Beard, it's like a walk in the back garden.
I spoke my thoughts, and the beard gave me an appreciative look and praised me for how well I played the analogy.
Yang Xiaoqi and the others were silent for a while when they heard me say this, and then Feijing said: "This place was the bottom of the sea in ancient times, maybe the owner of the tomb felt that there was no need to build such a complicated mechanism. Because this layer of seawater is the best mechanism. ”。
Almost immediately, I retorted, "No. Since there were people building underwater passages at that time, it is enough to show that there are still ways to deal with these seawaters. It's impossible for someone like that to fail to think of this. ”。
Feijing nodded, not saying anything more.
I looked at them and continued, "Maybe the owner of the tomb really wants future generations to enter such a tomb."
Yang Xiaoqi nodded thoughtfully and said, "Then what is his purpose?" In order to show off to posterity? Or is it ..... Have a last resort? ”。
Yang Xiaoqi said his opinion again, which made us silent again.
The beard walked very slowly, and there was nothing to describe in the passage, not unlike the ones we had walked before, except that this one was downward.
The captain of the ship also came to the tomb, I don't know if the ship on it is guarded, I remember listening to the weather radio before going to sea, saying that there will be a storm in two days. Counting the time, we have been in this tomb for twenty-four hours, which means that we have one more day to do everything.
Now Ayumi hasn't looked for a fight, and our way back is also complicated, and there is a back garden tomb full of drunken beauties in the middle, can you really go back in 24 hours? I started to worry in my heart.
I just thought about these words in my heart, and it was impossible to say them. To be honest, I have some regrets until now, and I regret that I followed Yang Xiaoqi and ran here to suffer this foreign crime.
Looking sideways at Yang Xiaoqi and Dragon Tooth's resolute faces, I don't know how these people survived, what are they for? Isn't it good to live a peaceful life?
The beard didn't give me time to think cranky, and soon he made a surprised sound in front.
I was shocked, came back to my senses, and asked him what was wrong?
The beard turned his head and said cautiously: "There is a mural here?" The damage is not serious. You can still see something."
Bearded was excited, and finally found information about the tomb. I was looking forward to it.
The mural begins in the direction that the beard is pointing.
It was a week-long boat, and there was a man with long hair and a robe standing on it, because it was too far away to see how he had grown. Behind the man were small children. This is the scene on the boat, and there is also a person standing on the pier below the boat, and it is not very tall. But he was surrounded by people and stood there.
Hu Zi looked at it, and combined with the simple text names on the side, he even guessed that this was the picture of Qin Shi Huang bidding farewell to Xu Fuhai to find immortals.
We looked at the information on the mural, combined with our own brain supplements, and soon felt that the beard was good, and this could really be a picture of Xu Fu going to sea.
In the back of the picture, there are ships sailing on the sea, they encounter a storm, they encounter a giant snake in the sea, and so on, and finally they finally come to an island. In the following picture is the picture of the robed man living on the island, he gave it to the original inhabitants of the island to write, plough the fields, build houses.... The picture in the back shows him sitting on a throne, with many people worshipping the recipients above.
The robe-bearer became the king of that island.
Just when we thought the mural ended here. The style of painting in the back suddenly changed, and once again it became a mural of sea voyages.
The next few murals are boring, and there is no need for narration. But then something caught my attention, and that was the first image of them meeting the king again, and they were worshipping a mountain. Hu Zi looked at the two words on the mountain, and said to us, this is - Lishan!
Lishan? The location of the Mausoleum of the Qin Emperor.
Could it be that this middle-aged man with long hair and robes is really Xu Fufu.
Everyone remained silent and continued to observe the mural.
After the robed man worships Lishan, the scene turns again, and he comes to the edge of a large river, opposite which is a cliff. There was a slow corpse hanging from the cliff, and although the painting was very abstract, he could see that it was human.
After that, these people were actually put to the ground by him, and the people came back to life in great fear. The robed man took the resurrected men to a place where they sailed out in a boat, and then there was an isolated island, made of abandoned ships. The Robe Man used those who had risen from the dead to help him build a series of tunnels connecting ships from ship to ship.
