Chapter 115: The Nullah

Xiaolu probably saw that I was really angry, so he leaned over and said a little apologetically: "Little shy, it's just a joke with you, don't take it seriously." Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info"

In fact, I should be very embarrassed now, I feel like an ignorant child, being played around, I forcibly suppressed the anger in my heart, waved my hand in disgust, and climbed up to check the stone slab.

The slab is very large, more than five meters long and wide, and the edge is embedded in the top of the cave, and the surrounding area is covered by intermittent stalactites, and it is really difficult to detect its existence without cleaning up the fake stones that covered it before.

I smashed the remaining gravel ridge with the butt of my gun, revealing part of the edge of the slate, which was half an inch away from the rock mass for the slab to move, and through the gap I could roughly tell that the slab was still quite thick, at least four or five centimeters.

Lao Hai stared at the slate and complained: "This is really troublesome, just open the road and put a ladder, we have to climb up in person, and delay our efforts!" ”

I gave him a blank look and said, "You are too troublesome, and people are not afraid of trouble?" Besides, if those guys find out about this place, won't we all have to die? ”

"Yes, yes, listen to the captain, whatever you say is what you say!" Old Kaido.

We stepped forward and pushed the slate, and found that the slate was lighter than we thought, and it was lifted up in one fell swoop, because the length of our arms was limited, only a small gap was exposed, and at the same time, the dust remaining in the gap fell down, and we couldn't open our eyes.

"Wow! No one has wiped it for years, why is it so dirty! It's cleaner under my bed! Lao Hai rubbed his eyes and said.

After more than ten seconds, when the dust stopped falling, the fawn climbed up. Although the slate is relatively light, because of the physical strength, it seems a little laborious for the fawn to hold on to the slate, so he told us to pass quickly.

The distance to the top is a reverse angle, and it is almost horizontal, it is not easy to climb at all, just now I saw the deer climb very easily, but I can experience it myself to know that this is not something that ordinary people can do.

I threw the iron claws on the safety rope to it, hooked it to the edge of the gap, and then hung it horizontally and touched it, which seemed to outsiders to be a death, but there was no way, and if I wanted to get out, there was only one way to go.

I try not to look down, as long as I relax mentally, it's not difficult. I clasped my fingers on it, slowly released my foot against the cave wall, and hung straight on the edge of the gap, then took a few deep breaths, and with a single effort, half of my body leaned in.

The space above was dark, and nothing could be seen, and through the faint light of the flashlight below, only the fawn next to it could barely be seen.

The fawn gasped and said to me, "Don't be stupid, come up and help!" ”

I hurriedly adjusted my posture, and with another force, I climbed up completely on my side, I helped the deer against the stone slab, and in a blink of an eye, Lao Hai also climbed up, and several people sat on the ground exhausted, relatively speechless.

After a while, our strength had regained before we stood up and observed.

It's a large space, with the light of the flashlight, you can't see the edge at all, and the top is an uneven stone wall, nothing special, the only thing that catches our attention is a long ditch at our feet.

It was a dry nullah, about one zhang wide and six feet deep, and the bottom of the canal was full of broken porcelain pieces and some dusty debris, and its specific use was not apparent.

Lao Hai tried to jump down, but the ditch was too deep, and we didn't know what strange things would be in it, so it was a bit dangerous to go down like this.

We exchanged views and walked slowly along the channel, and instead of wrestling with what was at the bottom of the channel, we would like to trace its roots and see where it leads.

In fact, the construction of nullahs in the tomb is nothing more than three purposes: the first is to pass the living water into the coffin, introduce the rich groundwater into the special slit between the coffin and the coffin, and then discharge it through another underground culvert, and the water will continue to pass through the middle, which can play a role in driving away evil spirits; The second is for burial, digging a burial ditch outside the main tomb to store some offerings, but this kind of burial ditch is generally rare, and basically no one uses it after the Eastern Jin Dynasty; The last is simply to prevent surface water from seeping, some areas are loose, in the event of heavy rain and flooding, the tomb will be filled with stagnant water, and a drainage canal can play a role in protecting the tomb.

But the nullah in front of me, I really don't see what it is for, according to the thickness of the dust covered inside, it has not been used for a long time, if it is only used for drainage, I think it is not necessary, because from the previous robbery holes, it can be seen that the soil here is still very strong anti-seepage, digging such a long nullah is simply a snake to add to the snake, more than that.

We walked for less than a minute, and suddenly a huge stone sculpture appeared in front of us, although it was not clear what it looked like, but a rough estimate showed that it was at least 100 meters, or even higher! The left and right areas are wide, rounded, and narrower as you go up, and at the top of it there is a raised part, which seems to be a head. Further back is the stone wall, which is connected to the roof of the cave, so that it looks as if a huge hole has been carved out of the interior of the mountain, and the whole stone sculpture is located on the mountain wall, which is extremely spectacular.

We were dumbfounded, and we couldn't imagine that there was such a huge statue hidden in an ancient tomb, which was beyond our imagination. Lao Hai opened his mouth and sighed alone: "This aristocratic boss's habit is really unique, making a lump of poop in the tomb, could it be that he was a shell lang when he was alive?" ”

After he said this, I realized that this stone sculpture really looked like a piece of dung from a distance, with a thick chassis, spiraling upwards in circles, becoming smaller and smaller, until the top became a piece the size of a skull. I felt sick when I looked at it, this shape is really unique, I believe that no one would dare to make such a thing in the tomb, and it is so huge.

As disgusting as the stone sculpture was, out of curiosity, we cautiously walked along the ditch that led to the stone sculpture, and I couldn't help but wonder if it was a sewer, and I couldn't understand what we were looking at.

Gradually, we got closer to the stone carving, and when we could see the specific appearance of the stone carving, we couldn't help but gasp - this shape is not a so-called poop at all, it is clearly a huge blue-scaled stone python!
