Chapter 217: The Top of the Shipyard

This scene may seem familiar to us. But soon. I noticed something different.

First of all. At the end of the position against the wall. There are no stairs leading upstairs or downstairs. And the position of the five tripods also seems to be slightly wrong. The most obvious is. The ship-shaped sarcophagus has everything on it. Only one plum bottle is missing.

It's not clear to me why this is the way it was designed. But I have reason to doubt it. At this time we were lying in this sarcophagus. will be the true owner of this tomb.

But. We are not here for wealth. Not for archaeology. For just an answer.

At this time. At the other end of the corridor behind us. There was an extremely noisy noise. It is expected that there will be a large number of rice dumplings coming to our side.

I asked Leng Yue, "What do you do next?" ”

Leng Yue looked left and right unhurriedly. He waved at me and Shen Dali. motioned for us to follow him.

We walked briskly. Bypass the five bronze tripods and the ship-shaped sarcophagus. I walked all the way to the side wall. Then he leaned against the wall and traveled in one direction. Eventually, they came to a stone gate.

The stone gate opens outward. There was a wind blowing from outside. Although the wind is not strong. But it brought a complete coolness.

Out of this stone gate. We came to the terrace.

The terrace is spacious. The edge is surrounded by a female wall.

Less than half a meter beyond the women's wall. The edges are hand-hewn walls. The surface is uneven. Compared to the delicacy and delicacy of this ship-shaped tomb. It's a lot rougher.

Leng Yue looked around for a while. Shook his head. He walked back into the finch room.

Shen Dali and I don't know why. Hurriedly chased after him and asked him what he was going to do. But I heard him say indifferently: "Over there." ”

Okay. It's so justifiable to lead the wrong way.

But. This delayed time. The huge number of rice dumplings had already left the corridor. Arrive near the red, viscous liquid. Scramble. Some zongzi even had their heads and arms squeezed out. There is no sign of giving up.

I can't bear to look at it anymore. Twisted his head and followed closely behind Leng Yue. At the same time, use your ears to pay attention to the movement of those rice dumplings.

This time. We didn't wait to get to the stone gate on the other side. It attracted the attention of those zongzi. I don't know if it's because the red liquid has been snatched up. They were coming towards us.

The dense rice dumplings are pressed into a piece of black. Such as tidal currents that carry carrion and biogas. Surging.

I felt something was wrong when I heard it. Turning his head to see such a scene. It's not good to shout. Hurriedly urged Shen Dali and Leng Yue to speed up.

We are sick and run wild. Soon he left those rice dumplings behind. All the way. Finally arrived at the stone gate on the other side.

Out of the stone gate. We came to the terrace again.

Leng Yue looked around. Pointing to an iron chain that came down from the wall from above, he said to Shen Dali and me, "Go up from here." ”

Because there are zongzi chasing behind. Leng Yue guarded the door with iron chopsticks. After glancing inside with a wink of green eyes. His expression immediately became very serious. He urged me and Shen vigorously to say, "Go up quickly." ”

Shen Dali said hurriedly: "Fifth brother." I'll go up and explore the way first. ”

said. He ran to the wire. Gripping the rope with both hands. Stepping on a wall. It was like climbing a mountain and quickly reached the top.

I told Leng Yue to be careful. He also ran to the side of the iron cable.

Shen Dali poked his head out from above. shouted at me below, "Fifth brother." It's fine. Come up. ”

I don't hesitate for a moment. Emulate Shen Dali's movements. Climb up.

There is no sarcophagus at the very top of the ship. There are no rice dumplings. A stone mast with no ceiling stands in the center. And around that mast. It is in an octagonal shape and has eight huge stone slabs.

Further away. It's black. There seems to be a structure that resembles an altar. But because the violence is too far. I can't see clearly.

Leng Yue had also come up at this time. And what is frightening. He had just stepped on the stone slab at the top of the ship's building. A golden knife stabbed from below. Straight to his back.

I'm not far away from Cold Moon. Seeing that the situation is not good. Hurriedly stepped forward and pushed Leng Yue away.

The golden knife grazed my backpack. Fall hard.

I broke out in a cold sweat. Raise the flashlight and look down. Frightened, I saw a piece of rice dumplings pressed by the black in the west. is crowding upwards with outstretched hands. Constantly waving. It was as if they wanted to take me down.

The dumplings want to come up. But the dead are not as flexible as the living. Even if it was crowded and grabbed the iron cable. But they couldn't climb up at all.

The two golden-armored warriors seemed to have the ability to climb up. But I didn't wait to climb a few times. It was ripped off by other zongzi.

Look at it this way. We're still relatively safe up there.

Leng Yue rose from the ground. Turning his head and glancing down. He looked at me again, expressionless. Turning around, he walked silently towards the position of the mast.

I also quickly got up. Make sure again that the following zongzi will not have a chance to come up. Follow the cold moon and hurry.

The three of us quickly walked to the mast. Stop in front of a huge stone slab.

Leng Yue pointed to the strokes on the slate. Said lightly: "See for yourself." ”

Shen Dali and I hurriedly approached the slate. Raise a flashlight to illuminate the mural on the slate. Start deciphering what's on the mural.

The frescoes are dense. And it is very coarsely drawn. The portraits of the characters in it are even indistinguishable from each other. But fortunately, the paintings of the Yuan Dynasty are not heavy. I could barely read what it was saying.

Eight stone slabs. It's a whole story. Or rather, it's about a person's complete voice.

The protagonist is not the tomb owner, the Great Queen. Rather, a Tibetan monk. By order of the Emperor. Traveled far to the south. Acquaintance with the wizards there.

Although it is not very clear exactly where it is in the south. But I'm sure. That is the ancient Miao village.

The Tibetan monks learned a lot of evil arts there. Including refining the head lowering technique of the little ghost. Gu poison soul alchemy. Toad alchemy, etc.

But these do not seem to be the focus of the Tibetan monk's trip. Because I noticed. On a fresco. The Tibetan monk came from an underground cave somewhere in a stone forest. Found a ball.

I was stunned. Can't help but speculate. The round ball that the Tibetan monk got. It is very likely that it is the relief ball that Leng Yue and Mr. Cui have been looking for.

After getting the balls. The Tibetan monk was discovered by local shamans. Attracted a hunt.

The scene of being hunted down is spectacular. All kinds of poisonous insects, snakes and scorpions that have never been seen before have appeared. Under the control of local wizards. Launched one attack after another against the Tibetan monk.

The course of the battle is not described in detail. But after that. The costume of the Tibetan monk has not changed, but the image has changed dramatically. Firstborn with two horns. Dark. It's like a demon in hell.

The Tibetan monk returned to the northern steppe. Hide the ball in a copper box. Then he led countless dwarves to build this magnificent ship-shaped tomb. He also presented the bronze box containing the ball to the Great Queen.
