Chapter 42: The Mystery of the Barbados Coffin

We were bitten just now, and the locusts have not yet penetrated into their veins. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

But to be on the safe side, I still treated the wound again with Xiao Mo's disinfectant water.

I looked into the depths of the dark secret passage and said, "There should be room in it." This place can't be stayed. Maybe all the locusts will come over later. ”

Actually, I wanted to go in and see if I could find clues about Ah Xue inside.

The destination of our trip is this ancient temple!

If you don't go in and take a look, everything this heart says is hanging.

Even if it's a dead end inside, I'm going to go in and take a look.

Judging from the current situation, it is impossible for Ah Xue to live here. There is no sign of people in this place at all.

"Let's go!" Lao An doesn't dare to underestimate me like he used to be. Nodding his head, he walked inside.

We followed him closely.

It's very dark in the secret passage.

It was only then that I realized that there were lampstands on either side of the secret passage.

It's just that the years have passed, and the lamp oil in it is no longer usable.

If you look closely, you can see that there are murals painted on the walls on the left and right, but they have been weathered and appear blurry.

If the stone door at the entrance had not been blown up, the murals might have been better preserved.

I can now confirm that this place should have an ancient tomb attached to it!

It's not impossible. It is very likely that this ancient temple is not a place of retreat, but represents a certain kind of right. It's just a symbol.

And some

After death, some noble people were buried in the ancient tombs under this temple, which is somewhat similar to the imperial tombs.

Of course, the Hengduan Mountains are closed to traffic, and compared with the Central Plains, it is impossible for it to evolve a monarchy. Therefore, the ruins we just saw are likely to be a very powerful tribe that imitates the Han here.

And this temple represents a kind of faith of theirs. The people of the tribe who were of great prestige were buried in this place after their deaths.

In this way, their form is somewhat like the Central Plains during the Yin Shang period.

The entire secret passage is made of huge stone blocks, giving people a sense of simplicity and solemnity.

Along the way, we also encountered many anti-theft mechanisms, but without exception, they were all destroyed by people, or they were not maintained for too long and failed. For example, crossbow arrows!

These mechanisms are usually more delicate and therefore more likely to malfunction. We saw a hidden crossbow machine, the strings were broken, and the crossbow arrows fell to the ground.

In addition, around the main road, there are some small rooms that have been dug up entirely by hand, and they are filled with all kinds of debris, except for some wood, and it is impossible to tell what they were originally. It seems that the wood on the mud walls was obtained from these places.

After walking for more than ten minutes, we finally came to a natural cave.

The cave is huge, the size of a standard football field!

And in this cave, as expected, there are piles of coffins of different sizes, old and new!

The coffins were all neatly laid on a very large staircase opposite us. The age of the coffin on each step is different, and when viewed from top to bottom, the coffin gradually changes from old to new. The top one is the oldest. Newer below.

But I wonder, isn't this place already frequented by tomb robbers? Why are these coffins still neatly arranged? Not even the lid opened. Tomb robbers wouldn't be so kind, would they? After taking someone else's stuff, you still put the lid back in its original form?

Reputedly...... It's just talked. Tomb robbing is also divided into factions, and the northern faction's Jinjin lieutenant has more rules when robbing tombs, one of which is not to damage the ancient tomb.

Could it be that those people are from the North? But it's not right.,The people of the northern faction are good at finding dragon points and cracking the tomb mechanism.,They won't brutally use explosives to blow up the tomb door directly.,If it's really the people of the northern faction.,There's no way to explain the stone gate at the entrance.。

Could it be ...... These coffins will move automatically? I couldn't help but shudder at the thought of this. It's a very weird thing.

In the middle of the Atlantic Ocean there is a small island called Barbados. There is a very strange tomb on the island...... The tomb is the tomb of a very old family: the Chase family.

And in this tomb, there was an inexplicable displacement of the coffin.

Some people say that the flood changed the position of the coffin, but there are no traces of the flood on the ground. Some people suspected that it was a prank by some people, so they sprinkled white sand in the ancient tomb, and only someone walked by left traces.

However, when the tomb was opened again, the position of the coffin still changed, but there was no trace on the white sand. Moreover, it was also found that only the lead-sealed coffin would move, and the wooden coffin would not move. As the name suggests, a sealed coffin is a coffin that is wrapped in a lead plate. I don't know why these coffins were sealed.

Damn it! I couldn't help but curse secretly, how can this place think about these things? Isn't this adding a psychological burden to myself?

I shook my head and shook off the bad thoughts.

Actually, when I first heard that Ah Xue was in an ancient temple, I thought it was a place where people lived. Now that I'm in this place, I don't know where to start.

Looking around, there was a round platform in front of us, which was supposed to be a place to pay tribute to the dead.

I walked up the stairs and walked through one coffin after another. This kind of feeling is really not something that ordinary people can bear.

It's just that now I don't care.

I've seen dead people turn over, what are you afraid of?

In that ancient tomb of the Yuan Dynasty, it is not afraid to pass through the many zombies, not to mention that there is now a layer of coffins. Even if they want to deceive the corpse, they have to get out of the coffin first.

I'm here to see if there's any mural reliefs around here or something. If I only look at a large pile of coffins, I can't see any information, and coming here is equivalent to not coming.

However, this time I really noticed something unusual.

That is, under every coffin, an image of a snake will be engraved!

Does this mean anything?

I remembered the Nuwa bone outside.

If the body of the person in the coffin is added to the pattern of the snake under the coffin, wouldn't this be a guy with a snake head and a snake body? That is, the classic image of Nuwa.

Are these people all descendants of Nuwa?

I suddenly had a very bold idea: Could it be that these people are the ancestors of Ah Xue?

Sling the bull! Phew! Ah Xue, this is what I said nonsense, don't take it seriously.

Of course...... What I'm most afraid of is not her background, but that she will give my boss an earbrace after she knows what I'm talking nonsense!
