Chapter 35: The Reservoir Under the Tomb
This liquid doesn't look like any venom, but is accompanied by a fragrance, we don't know what it is, after all, except for Zhang Yuntian, there is no one else in our group except Zhang Yuntian who has poured the bucket of the Western Regions, maybe the master has robbed this kind of tomb, but judging from the grandfather's diary, the master has no such experience, as for what the old lady said about having a relationship with the master in Xinjiang, although there can be some information, but the master has never mentioned it, at most, the master persuaded his grandfather not to go to the fight of the Western Regions.

Abu thought that this was some kind of venom, and he was already a little panicked, and hurriedly called the second uncle and the master, but instead of helping Abu, the master walked forward, holding the water under the brick and washing his face, we were all stunned, the liquid in this tomb The master didn't look at it, and he was not afraid of what kind of venom it was or soaked in the corpse or the like, especially when I thought that the tomb was full of dead people, I felt that the master's behavior was simply disgusting.
Abu had just moved away, and when he saw the master's behavior, he was directly startled, and shouted, "Master, what are you doing?" ”
Seeing that our eyes were a little strange, the master explained: "This is not some venom, it is clear water, and it can be drunk!" ”
"What, you say this water is drinkable?" Not to mention how frightened the crow is, it is completely that the upper lip can't connect the upper and lower lips, and it can't close its mouth.
"Hmm!" The young master replied coldly.
I looked carefully at the surrounding walls and the bricks and stones that had been turned back underneath, and suddenly understood what the master meant, and said, "I don't know how many years this water has been stored, and some of it looks like it was stored in this tomb when it was built!" ”
"What do you say?" The second uncle was also puzzled and asked.
I thought for a while and explained: "You think about the mercury you encountered in Taihang Mountain before, this kind of burial method has been more than thousands of years, so didn't Qin Shi Huang also use mercury as a river and lake to instill it, and the water source in this desert is a precious resource, so the tomb in the Western Regions is not made of mercury, but of water!" ”
"Won't the water dry then?" The crow asked, at this time, seeing Qianyu and Zhang Yuntian, they seemed to know this thing, they just looked at me and continued, but they didn't have any expression, probably they knew how the water came from like the master, but I had to explain it to the crows.
Then I said, "You have forgotten that there is a water cellar next to the tomb that never dries up, and that it is full of living water, not dead, or else the tomb would have dried up long ago, and the sealed masonry may have been used to store water." After arriving in the underworld, they may think that there is a lack of water in this desert, and they all believe that people will live in the tomb after death, so this tomb is built as before they were alive, let alone a tomb like this that belongs to the royal family. ”
"Damn, it seems to have some truth!" When Wang Dashan heard me say this, he swore and praised me, and he didn't know whether to praise or depreciate, he asked again: "Young man, how old are you, how can you still know this, I used to rob tombs but I was just a simple tomb robber, but I don't know this!" ”
"Huh! This is all from the book, I'm not young, I'm in my twenties, and I've had a few fights with my dad before! So know a little bit about this stuff too! I reluctantly explained.
"Yes! Not bad, not bad, promising! Wang Dashan continued.
However, when Qianyu saw the water, she seemed to have found something and said, "Is this water clean?" Did it flow through a corpse or something? Qianyu looked at the young man who had just washed his face with this water, and was a little puzzled, but at this time, the young master actually glanced at Qianyu, didn't know what he was thinking, and took a sip of water from the squirting water, and said solemnly: "Absolutely clean!" ”
Anyway, we didn't bring much water into the tomb, and I don't know how long we would stay in the tomb, and I still had a compressed biscuit in my bag and was almost finished, I really don't know if my father couldn't wait outside, I was really worried that if they didn't see us go up for a long time, would it be because they were worried that we would go down to the tomb, and those beetles before were things that would kill people, and I could only pray in my heart: "Don't come down, don't come down!" ”
Other people may be a little thirsty, after seeing that the master drank the water has no effect, they all held it and drank it, I also took a sip, but I didn't expect that this water was not only clean, but also accompanied by a sweetness, like a grape flavor, they all felt a little strange after drinking this water, and each of them "huh".
"Why is this water so sweet? It won't be toxic! Abu exclaimed.
"Yes, it's poisonous!" The master actually glanced at Abu and said helplessly.
Abu was caught off guard at this time, and really thought it was poisonous, so he hurriedly spit out a few mouthfuls, and complained to the master: "Master, you killed us this time!" ”
The second uncle patted Abu and said with a smile: "You stupid boy, if you want to be poisoned and keep you until now, the master is speechless to you, you really believe it!" The second uncle said that he went directly to the water to wash his face, and the ash on our faces also felt that we were not sober enough, so I simply washed my face.
Except for Qianyu here, everyone else washed their faces in imitation of the master, but soon, before they finished washing their faces, suddenly the masonry of the surrounding walls was directly washed out by the water and fell on the road.
We obviously felt that something was wrong, and I exclaimed, "Why was it okay just now, but now it has all been rushed out." ”
When they heard me talking, they all suddenly "shh
I saw the little master stand up and hurriedly shouted, "Run!" ”
We were all angry, and Wang Dashan was puzzled: "What are you running?" ”
The master didn't care anymore, but suddenly called me, asked me to follow him, and said, "Don't run away." I could see the firmness in his eyes, it seemed that it was because he promised my father to take me out, so he only said to me, Qianyu was also a little surprised, as if he had never seen a young master like this, I knew that the two of them might have known each other for a long time, but I didn't know when they would tell us the truth.
The second master and Abu also listened to the little master, without the slightest delay, after the crow saw us running away, he also followed, leaving only Wang Dashan still a little messy, and after a while, he also followed, that Zhang Yuntian and Qianyu naturally knew what was going on, and they had already run behind us.
Just after we ran a short distance, we saw that the place where the bricks had been washed away kept gushing out clear water, directly pouring into the corridor, chasing after us like the flood beast.
