Chapter 203: Into the Sparrow Room

Walk through this eerie low bush. We finally reached the staircase that led to the third floor of the Bird Chamber.

The stone steps on this level are markedly different from the one below. It's much more refined. Patches of flowing clouds are painted on it. It gives the wonderful feeling that you are about to step into the nine-fold cloud sky from here.

On the wall next to the stone steps. Painted with delicate strokes. Most of the content is a human-faced snake body of an immortal climbing cloud.

Such murals. It is very rare in the tombs of the Yuan Dynasty. It is commonly found in Han Dynasty tomb murals.

The contents of the murals set up in the portrait tomb of the Han Dynasty. Most of them are fairyland and ascending immortals. and the two categories of exorcism town tombs.

And here the murals. It is a typical fairyland theme.

Except for those immortals with human faces and snake bodies. There is also a picture of the group banquet of the Queen Mother of the West painted on the wall. There are also images of Ganoderma lucidum, three-legged bird, nine-tailed fox, jade rabbit, toad, and immortal.

And as we go up. There are many images of women in Yuan Dynasty costumes on the murals. and large-scale funeral figures.

These murals should be of great value to archaeologists on the culture of the Yuan Dynasty. But for me. It's just a matter of looking. It didn't do much.

We carefully stepped up the stone steps. I've seen one mural after another. Finally reached the third floor.

Entrance to the third floor. It is designed to look like a phoenix. It's like the gate of the heavenly palace.

And on both sides of the phoenix. There are stone statues of Fuxi and Nuwa respectively.

The two stone statues are mainly freehand. And weaker than realism. It is the typical rough style of the Yuan Dynasty.

The tail of the two immortals is entwined. Hands raised in the air. What he holds in his hand is not the usual rules and regulations. Rather, it is the sun and the full moon.

The solar sphere is embossed with a three-legged black. And the round moon sphere is embossed with a toad.

Leng Yue didn't care about these things. Without saying a word, he walked through Fengque.

Shen Dali and I glanced at each other. Keep up quickly.

The three-story chamber of this giant ship grave. It's completely different from the two floors downstairs.

Shine with the light of a flashlight. We can clearly see the white smoke curling in the air. I don't know if it's poisonous.

As far as I know. Miasma and poison gas are darker in color. then the more toxic.

I saw that Leng Yue didn't care about the white smoke. So cautiously tried to inhale this layer of slightly moist air. After making sure that you are in good health. Only then did he signal Shen Dali to continue walking inside.

Because the white smoke is too thick. The area that can be illuminated by a flashlight is very limited. The distance within the reach of eyesight is also very close. No more than ten meters.

I felt like I was in a fairyland. But my heart is becoming more and more uneasy. Because I know very well. This is not a wonderland. It is an ancient tomb of the Yuan Dynasty that no one can enter.

On the first and second floors, the dangers we encounter are escalating all the time. Who can be sure that this layer is absolutely safe.

Leng Yue is also very cautious. Walk very slowly. I listened to what was going on around me. Hopefully, if there is a real danger. I was able to make predictions in the first place.

We're going to keep it that way. I walked for more than ten minutes. There was no danger either.

Suddenly. I heard a "bang-la-la-la" sound. Right in front of me, at the foot of the cold moon.

I was shocked. Hurriedly shook the flashlight and shone it at the feet of Leng Yue. I saw a golden pot shaking slightly on the ground.

Looks like. The sound just now should have been caused by Leng Yue accidentally kicking the golden pot.

Subsequently. My eyes lit up. See in front of the cold moon. The ground was full of gold.

The gold objects were shrouded in white mist. But under the light of the wolf's eye flashlight. The light shines. I was in a lot of mood when I saw it.

Shen Dali picked up a large string of pearls from nowhere. Excitedly said to me, "Fifth brother." How much do you say this thing is worth? ”

I took a closer look. That's not a pearl at all. It's a string of night pearls the size of a ping-pong ball. The corners of his mouth trembled.

After trying to calm down. I asked Shen to put things back in place. Whispered, "Remember what the grave keeper said?" Let's not touch anything here. After all, they didn't come for these treasures. ”

Shen Dali was reluctant. But I still listened to my arrangement. Carefully put the string of night pearls back on the ground.

I asked Leng Yue, "Didn't you say that you could open that copper box here?" I don't want the copper box or the stuff inside. Go ahead. How can I help you. ”

Leng Yue stopped. Glance back at me. A rare squeeze out a smile. Nodding. But he said nothing. Then he turned around and walked forward.

And I said to my heart, I ask thee. What do you mean by smiling at me?

Never mind. When it's time to use me. Leng Yue will definitely not be polite. I'll just follow him.

We cautiously walked through the treasures on the ground. Take every step carefully. Prevent disturbance or damage to the treasures.

This time. We didn't have long to go. I saw a large black shadow appear right in front of me.

Wait until you get closer. I was surprised to find. It turned out to be a huge stone coffin.

The shape of the coffin is like a ship. It was also designed with a bow and a mast.

I pointed to the stone coffin and asked Leng Yue, "Is it there?" ”

Leng Yue shook her head without looking back. Reach out. Motioned for me and Shen Dali to stop. Then carefully pull out the pair of iron chopsticks. Suddenly he became vigilant.

He behaved like that. It made me nervous too. Shut up and stop talking. Hold one's breath. Listen to your surroundings.

It's very quiet here. Except for the sound of the three of us breathing. There is no more sound.

When I was wondering. Suddenly, I saw a black shadow floating silently from the side.

There is nothing wrong with that. The shadow was indeed drifting by. It's like a ghost.

Leng Yue waved her right hand violently. A transparent silk thread was thrown out with a "whoosh".

Moment. The dark shadow dispersed. It spreads like thick ink into our eyes.

I frowned and observed. I wondered what that black shadow was. Even began to suspect some kind of poisonous gas.

But. What happened next was completely unexpected.

I saw that the black shadow dispersed. Silently separated again. And it's very close to me. No more than three meters.

I took a step back vigilantly. Then I saw that the black shadow suddenly accelerated and coalesced. It turned into a wrinkled human face under my gaze.

The face smiled weirdly at me. Eyes flashed. A mouth full of fangs is exposed. Silently bit at me.

I don't know what to do. You have to turn around and run away. But I heard a "whoosh" in my ears. It was Leng Yue who threw out a transparent silk thread at a critical moment.

Transparent silk threads are invisible. But it should have hit the face.

The face silently dispersed. It turned into black smoke again. Scattered.

"What the hell is this?" I asked Leng Yue out loud.

Leng Yue didn't answer me. Instead, he said "be careful".

Just when Leng Yue's voice fell. Suddenly there was a lot of black gas all around us. And under my horrified gaze. Turned into strange human faces. Staring coldly at the three of us.
