Chapter 335: Locusts and ants kill each other
Like the tomb we are in now, the tomb is also full of corpses, estimated to be two or three hundred, almost the entire tomb has been paved, and there is no end in sight.
"Sister Lizi, why are so many people dying here?" Even Xiao Yue, who was very arrogant on weekdays, couldn't help but be a little stunned when she saw such a scene, and asked Li Huiyan.
"If nothing else, these people should be the same as the people in the tomb, the same as the tomb builders who built the mausoleum in the first place." Li Huiyan said.
"Well, I was a little strange just now, why such a large tomb of King Chen only had these tomb craftsmen in the tomb, which turned out to be sealed in this tomb behind the stone wall." I nodded.
Tomb builders accompany the burial, such things were extremely common in ancient times, especially some craftsmen who built the tombs of emperors and nobles, almost never came out alive.
In order to prevent the location of the tomb from being exposed after his death, it has long been common for the owner of the tomb to bury or kill all the tomb builders alive when the tomb is about to be completed.
However, in some dynasties, it was forbidden for tomb builders to be buried alive, so the tomb owners who built ancient tombs came up with another way.
Either the tomb was built with condemned prisoners, or the tomb builders were blindfolded before arriving at the tomb, and then sent away in the same way after the construction of the tomb was completed.
This is similar to the situation encountered by Qin Gong, the Qin family of all dynasties and dynasties had to be blindfolded if they wanted to enter the ancient tomb, so even if the Qin family guarded the tomb for Qin Shi Huang for two thousand years, they still don't know where the Qin Shi Huang Mausoleum was built.
"Let's get out of here." I said to the people. Fortunately, just now, because I had to solve the two troubles of the fourth and sixth children, I let the ghost-faced spider suck up their blood and turn back to an adult state, otherwise it is really impossible for us to break through this stone wall that separates the tomb from the tomb.
Everyone approached the tomb from the broken stone wall one after another, because there were so many corpses in the tomb, we had to be careful every time we stepped down, otherwise we might step on these corpses in the tomb.
Speaking of which, these tomb builders are really pitiful, they worked hard to build such a luxurious mausoleum for the tomb owner, but in the end they ended up being trapped and buried alive.
Looking at the corpses strewn across the grave, I couldn't help but mutter, I hope there won't be any more geisms or anything like that in this graveyard, otherwise I will inevitably have to subdue them to the grimace birthmark.
As we walked forward, we weren't too careful, except to avoid stepping on the corpses in the graveyard.
Since there are so many tomb builders in this tomb to accompany the burial, most of them will not have any anti-theft mechanisms, and even if there is a real estimate, it will have been triggered a long time ago, and it will not be our turn yet.
Even so, everyone would inevitably guess a few corpses when they walked, especially when Xiao Yue and Dong Shuang stepped on them, they screamed incessantly.
The more we don't want to happen, the more it will happen, and as soon as we reached the middle of the tomb, the tomb was suddenly filled with translucent spirits.
Two or three hundred geists surrounded us all, some of whom could not advance or retreat.
"What should I do now, or just ignore them before they are conscious." I said.
"I'm afraid it's a little difficult, although these wandering spirits are unconscious, but they instinctively suck the yang energy from us. We had already lost a lot of yang energy in the tomb just now, and if we were to be sucked away by these wandering spirits, I am afraid that it would cause some bad consequences. Qin Gong thought for a while and said.
I already understood Qin Gong's thoughts, and the implication was that I wanted to use the grimace birthmark to subdue these geists again.
As for Qin Gong's statement that the spirit will suck the yang energy of those of us, I think it's a bit nonsense, at least so far none of us have had a problem.
"Rice cakes, you hurry up and put these guys away, they look weird and scary." Xiao Yue said. Dong Shuang, who was on the side, also nodded again and again when he heard this, obviously holding such an idea.
"Okay then." Eventually, I nodded yes. It's not that everyone's words put any pressure on me, anyway, I've already received more than a hundred geists, and I don't care about any more.
I have been secretly paying attention to the changes in my body after subduing those geists in the tomb just now, and this time I have also confirmed that those geists are not harmful, which has made me feel a lot more relieved.
As I took off my shirt again to reveal the grimace birthmark on my back, the spirits in the tomb instantly surrounded me.
This time, without Yao Ling'er's help, these spirits all disappeared when they approached the grimace birthmark, and there was a burning pain on the birthmark on my back.
"Zhang Sansan, are you okay?" Li Huiyan asked.
"It's okay, it's just that these geists were a little painful when they were attached, and they were still within a tolerable range." I shook my head and said.
It took about ten minutes for the geist in the Soul Tomb to completely disappear, and the entire Tomb became empty again.
Without saying a word, I dressed and set out with the others, and soon came to the end of the tomb.
As soon as I approached the tomb door, I immediately shuddered, because the temperature at the tomb door was so low, more than ten degrees lower than the middle of the tomb where we had been.
"What's going on, how can the temperature be so low here?" I said with a frown. The sudden change reminded me of the Yin corpse encountered in the Bai Qi Tomb, we were also almost frozen to death at the beginning, could it be that there is also a Yin corpse in this ancient tomb?
With this in mind, I couldn't help but become more cautious. I still remember the power and horror of the Yin corpse at the beginning, if it wasn't for the Yang family brothers and sisters who happened to appear at the end, I, Li Huiyan and Xiao Yue would have frozen to death in that cave.
"Sister Xiaoyan, why is it so cold here?" Dong Shuang clasped his hands in front of his chest, shrunk his neck and asked Li Huiyan.
"I don't know, let's take a look first." Li Huiyan shook her head and said. The tomb door in front of us was also made of stone, and its whole body was snow-white, a stone that had never been seen before.
What makes me even more curious is that there are no patterns carved on this tomb door, which is not at all like the previous tomb doors that are either carved with scriptures or carved with various rare birds and beasts.
Li Huiyan stepped forward and poked her head out to observe on the stone door. After observing the tomb door for a moment, Li Huiyan stretched out her hand to wipe the surface of the stone door, and then I saw that there were many transparent crystalline objects on her fingers.
In just a moment, the crystals on Li Huiyan's fingers disappeared completely, and there were many small water droplets on Li Huiyan's fingers.
"Xiao Yan, is there frost on the door of this tomb?" I asked Li Huiyan.
"Well, it seems that there is something strange behind the door of this tomb, and the temperature inside is surprisingly low. I just wiped the tomb door casually, and my fingers are still cold. Li Huiyan nodded and said.
Receiving Li Huiyan's affirmative answer, I felt even more incredible. Because the stone used to make the tomb door was so white that I didn't notice that the surface of the tomb door was actually covered with a layer of hoarfrost at first, until Li Huiyan touched it with her hands.
It's strange here, how can a good tomb door be frosty? Although the temperature in the tomb was much lower than the outside, it was still far from the level of frost that it should have, unless there was something special in the tomb.
"Whatever is behind the tomb door, we will be able to see it when we open it." I said.
Since we have made up our minds to go to the ancient tomb below, we can't help but hesitate any longer, even if there is a scourge of Daoshan in front of us, we can only break through.
"Well, but there must still be something weird ahead, so don't be careless." Li Huiyan nodded and said.
"In that case, let the Ghostface Spider open the tomb door, which will also save us a lot of time." I proposed.
Tens of thousands, I was about to summon the ghost-faced spider over to destroy the tomb door, Li Huiyan saw this and quickly stopped me and said: "Let me open the tomb door, it's better not to destroy the things in the ancient tomb at will." It can be seen that Li Huiyan has also inherited the mantle of her grandfather Li Dingguo, and she attaches great importance to everything in the ancient tomb, and tries not to destroy the ancient tomb without destroying it, even if we are busy with it now.
"Alright then, if you can't open it, you can tell me, and I'll let the ghost-faced spider break the tomb door directly." I said.
Li Huiyan was trying to open the tomb door, and I was not idle, and began to wipe the hoarfrost attached to the surface of the tomb door with my hands.
I didn't think there were any carvings on the tomb door, but now it seems that it was just covered in white frost, and it might be a bit of a windfall to wipe them off.
Dong Shan and Qin Gong stepped forward to help, Xiao Yue and Dong Shuang didn't dare to approach the tomb gate because they were afraid of the cold, so they could only stand behind in a daze.
As the hoarfrost on the tomb door was gradually wiped clean, I finally found something on the tomb door that I had not seen before.
On the surface of the white stone door, there are many crooked golden lines. The patterns on the doors of these tombs vary in thickness and shape, and it seems that the stone itself comes with it.
"Hey, this seems to be a dragon pattern stone, which is a bit rare." Qin Gong glanced at the tomb door a few times and said softly.
"What is Dragonstone? Is this stone rare? I asked Qin Gong.
"If it's really a dragon-patterned stone, it's really rare. Do these golden lines on your tomb door look a little like living golden dragons? Qin Gong said.
"Cut, what kind of dragon stone, I think it's a serpentine stone, where do you see that these crooked things look like dragons?" As soon as Qin Gong's words fell, Xiao Yue pursed his lips and said.
