Volume 3 The Tomb of the Night King Chapter 14 The Tomb Mural Paintings

Heishui, this thing may be known to me and Yu Qian, but how can the two of us make this noise?

Liu Qing finally gave up the mud, and after exchanging sapper shovels with Yu Qian, he walked in front with the shovel and Changming lamp oil to open the way for us.

Stepping on the grave road again, our mood is very different. This time, we are absolutely sure that we can walk into the mausoleum without a tomb door.

Sure enough, when we stepped into the tomb that had caused us to loop countless times, we managed to break through the curtain and break the curse of the cycle.

The flashlight shone around the tomb, and everyone suddenly let out a sound of amazement.

"That's amazing! The former burial chamber alone is so majestic! I'm afraid it's two stories high, right? But a bluestone brick burial chamber at the end of the road, why should this wall be painted black? Liu Qing held the lantern and approached the wall directly opposite, puzzled.

I walked over, pulled out my dagger, and threw it against the wall.

"Bell!" Suddenly, the dagger was attached to the wall.

"See? It's a magnet! The wall was painted with a layer of magnetic powder. Its function is to create a specific illusion! We think the reason why the cycle is always penetrating in the same direction is on this wall. If it were something else, the hallucinatory scene we see would be different. I pointed to the black wall and explained to Liu Qing.

These are all information that I just got from my notes, and at this time, I just borrowed it and took it out to show off.

As I said this, the group of people all came to the magnet wall, and they were all attracted by this strange device.

"So, this wall has a storage function, right? It's what works with hallucinogenic drugs, right? But I'm curious about how it stores information and how it is released. How did you make that circular illusion you were talking about? Professor Han touched the magnet wall and suddenly turned his head to me and asked.

This question is really a question, I just know that this thing has this function, as for what the principle is, the hell can figure it out? You have to ask the owner of the dead ghost tomb in the mausoleum.

I smiled awkwardly, I wanted to talk nonsense, saying that magnetic things have memory, just like tapes and disks. Then through the smell of the drug or some specific link, the illusion is released, so that the person who is recruited feels more realistic.

But while the words were still on his lips, there was a sudden sound of exclamation from the other end of the tomb.

Professor Han and I were both taken aback, and then everyone gathered around in that direction. After walking over, I realized that it was Yu Qian who was amazed, and she took advantage of the fact that we were looking at the device of the horse walking technique, and she went through the tomb alone.

And now, when we saw her, she was standing in the middle of the former burial chamber in a daze facing the passage we saw as soon as we entered.

By the light of her flashlight, we looked into the passage, and we were all stunned. Liu Qing and Han Dong even exclaimed like Yu Qian.

The passage was unfathomable, diagonally downward at a great angle. However, this large passage, which is more than three meters wide and nearly three meters high, has been dug by hand and decorated into a dome, and is actually carved with reliefs. These reliefs are lifelike, smeared with brilliant colors, and they are actually the existence of the murals.

This kind of mural is probably unheard of and unseen. The three archaeology majors were lost in it for a moment, and Professor Han almost came closer to take a closer look in tears.

The frescoes are carved in relief on both sides of the passage, at a height of nearly two meters. The dome was painted gray and white, and in the way of painting, it depicted layers of cloud patterns, and the gold patterns of Rui beasts. At this glance, it makes people feel a sense of magnificence and grandeur.

"What kind of passage is this?" The first to wake up from his surprise was Han Dong, who pointed to the passage that was inclined down 20 degrees and asked.

Professor Han opened his mouth, and I thought he was going to answer, but he didn't speak. In a pair of eyes, there is only a relief in front of him. Stretching out a pair of hands, I wanted to touch but didn't dare to touch it.

"This should be the real graveyard! The previous ones were just the outer passages of the mausoleum......" Although Yu Qian's eyes did not leave those reliefs, she still gave an explanation.

"That's right! It's a graveyard! The real Guchu unconventional and unparalleled mausoleum tomb road! This mausoleum owner is an incomparably noble ancient Chu nobleman! ”

This was said by Zhao Zhifeng, he didn't know when he took out a pair of glasses, and at this time his eyes were blazing, looking at those reliefs with different colors.

"Alas! I say three! Can you stop patronizing it? This thing, birds, insects, and fish, surrounded by people and beasts, is not the life deeds of the tomb owner, no matter how you look at it? Since it's not a deed, there's nothing about the owner of the tomb, so let's go down! Go straight to the main chamber of the tomb owner to study! Liu Qing was not interested in these reliefs, and looked at the bottom of the swarthy tomb, he looked very anxious.

"Who says it's not the life of the tomb owner? This is the hunting life of his people, and among them is the tomb owner! You see, that's the owner of the tomb...... "Professor Han is worthy of being an old professor, and he has already figured out the content of some of the relief strokes after looking at it for so long.

Looking at the location he indicated, we laymen looked over. It was a young man dressed in black, with a big bow in his hand, and his eyes were blazing at the elk behind a large tree. And beside him, a group of teenagers of equal age were clustered, and although they were also armed with bows and arrows, they were not holding hunting arrows, but were semi-surrounded, surrounding the black-clothed boy.

Obviously, the young man in black, who is the prototype of the tomb master that Professor Han said, is a person with a rather high status.

This is just one of the images in this series of reliefs, and in other places, the young man in black is doing other things, and these events are reduced to relief murals and recorded on both sides of the tomb.

"Look here!" Professor Han took us all the way down, and we listened to him talk about the contents of the relief murals in the tomb road.

After walking some distance, Professor Han suddenly pointed to a mural of a young man in black after he had grown into a young man, and stopped.

"This is the rite of passage of the tomb owner!" After taking a closer look at the relief, Professor Han suddenly said.

When he said this, we all approached curiously. The relief carved a very special scene, to be honest, I looked at it and felt panicked, and I couldn't help but feel a wall in my heart, and there was a faint feeling of fear.

The relief depicts the owner of the tomb holding a pointed blade in his right hand, standing in a circle of people tied to a stake. And his left hand actually grabbed a human head. At his feet, there were three human heads rolling down at random, and one on his left foot.

Those who were tied to him were either headless, or disemboweled, and their internal organs flowed to the ground, or their arms and legs were missing, or their heads were lying on their backs, and they were bleeding profusely. In short, this scene makes people shudder and feel terrified.

"These people are all guards who grew up with the tomb owner! It is also the first relief mural in which those who surround the tomb owner and guard him. When the tomb owner is an adult, he needs to cut off the love thread, be ruthless, not be entangled by emotions, and be a strong overlord! Therefore, his coming-of-age ceremony is to kill his bodyguard companions who have grown up together since childhood and have deep affections, as well as ...... His childhood sweetheart's woman! ”

Professor Han pointed to the relief and explained it to us little by little. And we, looking at that picture and listening to these words, were all chilling all over our bodies, and our hairs stood on end.

I don't know what kind of rules this tomb owner was at that time, he was so ruthless and ruthless, and lost his humanity.

In the last picture of this part of the relief, the tomb owner faces a girl with long hair and a scattered head, her right hand is half-holding a sharp blade, and blood drops drip from the sharp blade.

He held a strangely shaped lump in his left hand, put it to his mouth, and bit it so hard that a large amount of blood flowed from his hand and mouth to the ground.

At first I didn't see what it was, but it dawned on me when we moved a little further down to see the tied girl.

A large cut was made in the left side of the girl's chest, and a large amount of blood flowed down. The cut was empty, and the heart that was supposed to be in it was gone.

The girl's eyes were open and she looked at the tomb owner, as if she was still resentful of the tomb owner at the moment of death.

Seeing this scene, I found that Han Chang and Yu Qian's bodies were trembling, and their heads were covered with fine beads of sweat. I didn't expect such an ancient mural to make them feel so deeply.

"What a cruel country, such a race that exterminates humanity! It is unreasonable for this race not to perish! Liu Che sighed deeply after reading it, and said something that everyone felt happy.

The relief murals after that are still the life deeds of the tomb owner, there are those who fought on the battlefield and killed the enemy. There are those who lead the officers and soldiers to govern the rivers and mountains. There is one who marries his bride and ascends the throne as king...... Many, much more.

Professor Han wanted to read it all and record it. But then it turned out that it was completely endless. As deep as the tomb is, there are as many murals, and as long as it stretches, the spotlight flashlight that can illuminate a hundred meters away does not find an end.

If Professor Han finishes his research, we will probably have to pitch a tent and stay here for a week. Therefore, at my suggestion, we decided to explore the tomb first, find the epitaph, confirm the identity of the tomb owner, and then find an opportunity to record the mural in its entirety.

No longer delayed by the murals, we are obviously going down a lot faster. We walked nearly 10 meters away from this graveyard at first, and then tested the remaining distance with a searchlight, but we couldn't find the end of 100 meters. Therefore, we always thought that this cemetery was at least more than 100 meters long.

Therefore, we are in a hurry and want to pass through the cemetery quickly.

However, after leaving the position of the relief mural of the tomb owner's coming-of-age ceremony, I only walked five steps, and the scene in front of me, which was originally the white light of the flashlight, suddenly sparked and changed!

The white circle of light disappeared in an instant, and what appeared in front of him was a young man in a black robe, who stared viciously at a tied girl in front of him. And the girl opened her mouth and wept, as if she was crying something, and her expression was indignant and sad.

But the young man was unmoved, and he suddenly stepped forward, grabbed the collar of the girl's clothes, and tore it suddenly, revealing the white chest. Then, I saw that the young man's gaze suddenly became very sharp, and a fierce light appeared. At the moment of his fierce glare, his right hand plunged into the girl's white chest.

On his right hand, a handle shows its head. And the other end of the handle completely sank into the girl's chest. Blood flowed out like water from a faucet. The girl frowned, opened her mouth, and seemed to be unable to shout.
