Volume 2 The Evil Tomb Chapter 8 The Tomb Mural Painting
Seeing this crossing, Yu Qian and I were stunned for a while. I don't know what Yu Qian is thinking, but I'm just thinking, this tomb even has so many tricks on one door, so is there any famous hall in this tomb? Could it be that there are some deadly traps too?
Just as I was thinking about this, Yu Qian suddenly jumped out, and she was about to jump down with a dodge.
I was startled by her again, but fortunately, I was not slow to react, and the three steps were combined into two steps, and I rushed over at great speed, grabbing Yu Qian's wrist.
"What are you doing?" I drank and stopped Yu Qian's impulse.
Yu Qian looked at me like a fool, and said, "Go down, the tomb is open, and there are stairs, why don't you go down?"
I was defeated by the look in her eyes and shocked by her words.
"Have you ever studied archaeology? I know as a layman that an ancient tomb cannot be entered at will after it is opened, at least once in a while. What's more, there are so many mechanisms in this ancient tomb without opening the door, can you know what is famous in the tomb? If you venture in, you are simply looking for death! ”
After I finished speaking, Yu Qian stuck out her tongue mischievously, looking embarrassed.
"This isn't the first time I've seen this kind of tomb, I'm so excited. Besides, are you a layman? I'm afraid I'm still playing with mud while you're studying this. ”
I was kind of defeated by her, pulled her back to where she was, and ignored her again.
"Hey, what do you think we're going to do? How to go down? Seeing that I ignored her, Yu Qian simply asked again.
I picked up a large round stone and threw it at the entrance of the tomb, and it rolled down the stairs. "Bang bang bang" sounded all the way, it seemed to be very deep.
However, the stone did not activate any mechanism after it was dropped. Of course, even if a stone has an effect, it is very small, and it is a bit of a joke to detect any mechanism.
"Is that okay?" Yu Qian saw that I didn't move after throwing the stone, so she couldn't help but ask again.
"You think beautifully, I just didn't think of anything to do, so I just threw a stone. No matter how I look at this tomb, I don't feel that it is simple, and this tomb must be very difficult to walk, and I always bear it...... Feed! What are you doing? Why don't you listen to the command again? ”
I was only halfway through my words, when I saw Yu Qian stabbing down to the entrance of the tomb, without shouting, she disappeared into the dark tomb in a blink of an eye.
This made me break out in a cold sweat again, and I quickly spread my feet and chased after him. Yu Qian walked very fast, and I didn't find her even after me for a distance, not even the light of her flashlight.
I couldn't help but feel a little anxious, because I had interpreted in the Nine Wrong Steps that some of the traps were trapped. After falling, the upper flap is turned around again, covering the trap, and the person falls down and disappears, but it is as if nothing happened. I'm afraid that Yu Qian will encounter this kind of mechanism.
I couldn't help but speed up my pace, and I didn't care about my own safety all the way, and just rushed on.
The descent was only a few meters away, and at first it was empty, but suddenly something stretched out from the side, and I couldn't dodge it in time, and hit it head-on, and my body instantly lost its balance, and I rolled all the way down.
I couldn't even scream at the rolling impact along the way. I don't know how long I rolled, but I lost consciousness after my head hit a hard object.
It's been a long time, and I'm in a lot of pain. If it doesn't hurt, it's called a strange thing, and I'm woken up alive. When I opened my eyes, I saw that a beam of light was shooting in all directions in the pitch black environment.
I took a closer look, okay, it's Yu Qian, she's alive, there's no shit, she's like a curious baby at this time, playing with a flashlight.
"Hey, you didn't say to take care of my injury? What are you doing there? Also, how did you come down so fast just now? "I just felt that the thing behind me was erect, and it should be the thing that knocked me unconscious, so I slowly stood up with the object behind me. But in his mouth, he was blaming Yu Qian.
Seeing me ask, Yu Qian immediately reined in, cautiously took two steps back, and then smirked.
"I ...... I'm sorry! When I was on the graveyard just now, the flashlight suddenly ran out, and I was walking by touching the wall, and then your flashlight flashed over, and I didn't notice you, and suddenly I wanted to go to the middle, and I crashed into you...... And then... Then he fell down and hit you again, causing you to knock on the door and knock you out......"
"Damn!" After listening to her explanation, I couldn't help but just one word.
Now if I could, I would love to throw her out. Along the way, because she didn't listen to the command, she messed around, how many times did she hurt me? If I continue like this, I'm afraid I'll die in this.
Yu Qian lowered her head again and reassured again, claiming that she would definitely obey the command and not mess around.
However, I have suffered several losses, I have believed her several times, and now I don't believe her.
But it was impossible for her to return the way she came, so I said to her, "That's all you have to do, rest here, and I'll go in alone." Wait for me to come out, and then go out together. ”
I was saying it in a commanding tone, not wanting to give her any chance. With her messy personality, I'd really be killed here by her.
However, I still forgot that Yu Qian is a woman, and it is a talent to mess around. He didn't accept it at the moment, rushed in front of me in two steps, and yelled at me: "Why? I was just careless. Besides, you keep saying that there is a mechanism in the cemetery, and you don't have it all the way down, isn't it? So my inference is also correct. Therefore, I should have gone in too! ”
"The cemetery doesn't work, that's luck. But your personality is really not suitable for me to go in. You are an archaeologist, you will definitely be excited when you see antiquities, and you will definitely mess around inside, and every time you mess up, I will be the one who suffers. I still want to live two more years, so you can spare me! "This time I'm pleading.
However, Yu Qian's eyes widened, and she swore to die, so she just went in.
"I'll just compensate you when I go out, this is a rare opportunity, I said that I want to see the inside of this special ancient tomb! No matter what the cost, no matter what it takes! ”
"That's my life! I'm not married, I don't have offspring, I don't want to die! "I was in a state of flux, but I didn't budge. This is no joke.
Yu Qian was stunned for a moment, then smiled and said, "What did I think was the matter, isn't it a descendant?" Isn't it okay if I give birth to you? Don't forget, I'm also a woman's ......."
"Huh?" I was immediately confused, what did she say? Why do you feel like you don't hear clearly?
Just as I was in a daze, Yu Qian grabbed my hand, then put her arms around my shoulders like a big man, pulled me, and walked in a different direction to the depths of the tomb.
"Don't show such an expression, what I said is true, I'll have a baby with you when I go out. So, don't waste time now, let's get in and find out, I can't wait! Yu Qian didn't drag me away, and said to me. And I, in a daze, were completely stunned by her words and completely dominated by her.
In addition to the stairs when you descend, the tomb is a smooth tomb path that reaches the bottom. This tomb is perpendicular to the staircase. In other words, it made a 90-degree turn to the right after descending the stairs.
And on the other side of the staircase tomb entrance, the hard object I rolled down and hit was the tomb door we encountered in the underwater cave before! It's just that we're already inside the door at this point.
Therefore, this door is indeed a tomb door in the sense, but it is a whole door, a door that is not easy to open. To be honest, I still can't figure out how thick this door is.
I was still in a daze when I was taken into the real tomb by Yu Qian, and when I came in and sobered up, it was too late to regret it. got on the thief ship, but couldn't get off, so I had to resign myself to fate.
This flat tomb road is the real tomb road, starting from the entrance, the two sides of the tomb road are painted with murals, colorful and flying. Even the arc of the tomb is full of murals.
I don't know anything about murals, but I know that the paintings here are very well preserved. Although the color is a little dull, it has fallen off in some places. However, there is not a single place where the frescoes are detached and incomplete.
Yu Qian is an archaeologist and has a lot of research on murals, and she has been looking at them with a flashlight since she came in. I studied slowly all the way, and from time to time I was writing with a notebook, which made me speechless.
A tomb road that is only about three meters wide, and the spotlight flashlight shines forward, and it is easy to shine on the head, and it is estimated that it is only about ten meters long.
At this point in length, just one meter away, we walked for nearly ten minutes. Yu Qian didn't know how many things she had written in the past ten minutes, she kept looking left and right, up and down, and kept remembering. I suspect that I didn't come to pick up something, but to accompany her to archaeology.
But there was nothing I could do, because as soon as I urged her, she would say the sentence: "What's the hurry?" The baby won't be missing you! ”
Just such a sentence made me quite embarrassed.
In the end, I didn't bother to wait for her, so I left her behind and walked forward alone.
The straight tomb road, I estimate that you can walk to the end in more than ten steps, enter the tomb, open your eyes, and then make a lot of money.
Thinking of this, I couldn't help but speed up my steps, and my left hand, the sack, were taken out. However, as soon as I reached the middle of the cemetery, I stepped down, and my body instantly lost its balance.
In a panic, I fixed my eyes. Good guys, it turned out to be a pit! In the tombway, there is indeed a trap, and it is the trap trap I thought of before!
"Bang", I fell, and then I watched the light of Yu Qian's flashlight on the trap mouth above my head, and then with a "click", the trap mouth disappeared, and I was sealed in this trap.
Well, the clamshell trap that I thought of before really made me encounter it!
It didn't take long for me to hear Yu Qian desperately calling me from above. Of course, I responded violently, and I was so anxious that I tapped my flashlight on the stone wall of the trap.
I guess the clamshell is not very thick, otherwise it would not be possible to convey the sound. When Yu Qian knew that I had fallen into the trap, not only did she not rush to save me, but laughed. said that I was careful to guard against this and that all the way, but I fell into the pit. I was so embarrassed that I wanted to hide in this pit like this.
Fortunately, this trap was relatively rough, and the flap was easily found by Yu Qian, and she pried it open with a sapper shovel. However, after coming up, I found that although the trap is relatively rough, it is very deep, and the bottom is large, and the opening is small.
The traps appeared, and Yu Qian was not in the mood to record the murals one by one, so she leaned against the wall with me and began to advance, preparing to enter the tomb.
At this time, Yu Qian also told me: "Through the murals, I found that this tomb owner was a very powerful figure during his lifetime, he should have served in the army, he was a strategist and other figures, helped the army win many big battles, and was highly praised and courteous by the emperor." After his death, he was buried here. ”
Hearing her say this, I also realized that the mural still has this information. It seems that I will have to learn from her when I have time in the future.
Yu Qian continued: "This tomb was designed by the tomb owner himself, and it was completed before his death, and the tomb door was closed after his death. Judging from the frescoes, the real tomb gate is indeed the one we came down from. ”
This time, I was confused. The owner of this tomb is just a strategist in the army, so what qualifications does he have to dig the mausoleum before he dies? And so grand? The price of that false door alone is not small.
Yu Qian didn't answer this point immediately, and it wasn't until she almost walked out and saw the last mural that she said: "If you don't guess wrong, this strategist in the army is not an ordinary strategist." He should be a prince, the heir of an emperor. Therefore, he has the right to build a mausoleum during his lifetime. But...... This mural seems to be missing, and if you look at this figure, it's only half a head in the end......"
