Chapter Ninety-Four: A Vision in the Fire

Because he had been thinking about who this inner ghost was, Professor Chen didn't sleep well that night, and in a daze, Professor Chen seemed to hear a very light footstep and quickly walked into the tunnel under the Hades.

Professor Chen quietly woke up Zhang Gong to come to the monitor, and finally saw the figure of the inner ghost through the video playback. I saw that he was wrapped in a turban and wearing a double mask, only revealing his two eyes outside, and skillfully walked into the tunnel in the center of the temple.

Professor Chen paused the video and asked Zhang Gong quietly: "Lao Zhang, this person is so tightly wrapped, can you see who this may be?" ”

Zhang Gong also replied in a low voice: "Your old man can't even see it, how can I see it?" ”

As he was talking, Team Wu quietly came over with five people, he pressed Professor Chen's shoulder, stopped him from getting up, and said softly: "Professor, don't move yet, just watch here, I'll take a few people in now, and when he gets his hands, we'll arrest him and bring him up." ”

After speaking, Team Wu took five people wearing masks and entered the passage.

As the video continued to be played, something that Professor Chen never expected appeared: he had always thought that the thief should have entered through the passage where the craftsmen had escaped, but in fact he did not walk that way, but entered the passage very skillfully, groped down the side of a step, and soon a new passage appeared in front of him on the right.

Professor Chen glared at Zhang Gong fiercely and scolded: "You old thing, you are lazy and almost become a fine!" ”

Zhang Gong blushed and quibbled: "Who knew that the passage was hidden so close to the entrance, just such a little distance, yes, two passages were designed, but it can be regarded as a miserable pit for me." ”

Professor Chen ignored him anymore, staring intently at the several monitors in front of him, quickly switching between camera screens to find the figure. After 15 minutes, the mysterious figure was finally found in the ice cave, and after walking past the burial pit, he came directly to the mountain on the right and stopped. As the ghost figure stalled, Professor Chen and Zhang Gong were surprised to find that a pattern appeared on the mountain that was originally covered by ice. The man looked at the pattern for a while, then took out his compass and looked at it, and then went straight to the blind spot on the left side of the martyrdom, and completely disappeared into the surveillance.

The mysterious figure could no longer be found, so Professor Chen switched the picture of the burial pit to a monitor, and after zooming in on the full screen, he found that the fire had been small or even extinguished, and there was no trace of the fire outside the pit at this moment. He turned up the camera picture on the right side and zoomed in on it and took a closer look, and was immediately shocked, he said to Lao Zhang in a hurried tone: "Go and call Ma Kai, there is a situation, let's go down quickly." ”

In a panic, the three of them quickly passed through the newly opened passageway, and arrived in the ice cave in a few minutes. When they came down, they found that the exit of this passage was not far to the left of the escape hole they had entered and exited, but there were no steps inside, and they reached the bottom of the ice cave through the natural slope of the mountain.

When passing by the edge of the burial pit, Professor Chen stopped and looked inside, there were almost sporadic fires left, and the fire inside was more than half shallower than when they went up, and now the depth was more than 5 meters, and there were now bones of various shapes inside, which was very terrifying and disgusting. Although the three of them were wearing double layers of thickened masks, they still couldn't stop the foul smell from entering their noses, and coupled with the disgusting scene in the burial pit, Ma Kai was a little nauseous and wanted to vomit. Seeing this, Professor Chen hurriedly took the two of them to the right side of the mountain of the burial pit, pointed to the pattern on the mountain with his finger, and whispered to Ma Kai: "Ma, quickly take a picture of this, and take more details." ”

Under Professor Chen's instructions, Ma Kai hurriedly used a single-lens reflex camera to take pictures of the patterns on the mountain, and then asked, "Professor, why does this look like a floor plan, it seems to mean here." ”

"Yes, it should be a depiction of the distribution of caves here, and now I can roughly judge that this is not an imperial tomb, it is very likely to be the tomb of the legendary Zongbo."

"Can Zongbo's grave be so big?"

"In many periods in ancient times, officials like Taichang had a very high status, and even sometimes they represented the heavens and the representatives of the gods, so most of them were trusted and respected by the emperor."

"Then why did this Zongbo make such a big tomb?"

"Do you notice what is marked on this, on the big platform below represents our location, and further down there are his treasure caves and tombs."

"And what is the purpose of the first floor above the two caverns?"

"That should be the only way to get to the tomb, which means that this level is the most dangerous place in the whole place."

"So what do we do now?"

"Don't do it, I'll go to bed later."

After speaking, Professor Chen returned to the burial pit and looked at the pile of corpses piled on the side. After the heat just now, some of the corpses on the edge had been burned a little, and the ground was covered with a disgusting dark liquid.

Then I looked at the martyrdom, because it was far away from the fire point, and it was not affected much, but the appearance melted a little.

Professor Chen found a few points again to measure the temperature, and after seeing that it was still below freezing, the three of them walked up through the newly discovered passage, and after walking for more than three minutes, Professor Chen and Zhang Gong saw the mark they made when they came down for the first time, and it turned out that they were only three minutes away from the ice cave that day.

When they went up, they saw that all the people had woken up, and they all covered their mouths and noses, and they were talking about something. After seeing Professor Chen and the three of them coming up from below, Feng Weiguo was very surprised, put down the hand covering his mouth and nose and asked, "Professor, where have you been?" What happened? ”

Seeing that they were all in such a state, Professor Chen did not answer Feng Weiguo's question, and asked puzzledly, "What's wrong with you?" Why don't you sleep anymore? ”

"I was sleeping well, but I was suddenly woken up by the stench."

Hearing Feng Weiguo say this, Professor Chen finally understood that it was the newly opened passage that transmitted the smell of corpses below.

Seeing that everyone had woken up, Professor Chen said to Feng Weiguo: "Director Feng, you should take someone outside the cave to breathe now, this is indeed not a taste, I will tell you what happened just now alone." ”

Feng Weiguo saw Professor Chen's serious face, so he nodded slightly and walked out with the local archaeologists. Seeing them walking out, Professor Chen whispered to Zhang Gong: "You go out and take a look, whoever is not in this water is the inner ghost." ”

"Okay, I understand."
