Chapter 402: The Well of Magma

The infantry in front of them all held a shield in their left hand and a scimitar in their right; The cavalry is holding the reins of the horse in one hand and carrying an elongated sword in the other.

In the age of cold weapons, from the ancient countries of the East to the seas of the West, from the grasslands of the north to the barbarians of the south - there was the same array on the training ground of every country.

Anyone with common knowledge of cultural relics will think of the Terracotta Warriors and Horses of Qin Shi Huang in Xi'an, China, when they see the neatly arranged armed stone statues, and Lin Xuan will certainly be no exception.

"Stone statues? Why do I always think of the terracotta warriors and horses of Qin Shi Huang? The terracotta warriors and horses are buried deep underground, and they are also made into a mixed battle formation of soldiers and horses, echoing from end to end, forming a fairly scientific modern cluster combat system. These stone carvings also have the same characteristics, do they have some kind of relationship with the Mausoleum of Qin Shi Huang and the Terracotta Army?" Lin Xuan was worried, and the heart he had just put down hung again.

The Terracotta Warriors and Horses of the Mausoleum of Qin Shi Huang are located in the burial pit of Lintong District, 35 kilometers east of Xi'an City, Shaanxi Province, probably built from 246 BC to 208 BC, and have been found to be similar to the size of the real man and the real horse, nearly 8,000 pieces of pottery horses, there are different types of troops such as chariots, cavalry and infantry, which are known as "the eighth wonder of the world" and "one of the great discoveries in the archaeological history of the twentieth century".

The terracotta warriors are also known as the "Asian mummies" and are juxtaposed with the dried mummies in the Egyptian pyramids.

In many accounts, the Terracotta Warriors and Horses have been given a layer of mystery, and are referred to as the "ghost army of Qin Shi Huang", which can be resurrected instantly by a special summoning at a certain time in the future. Similarly, the dried mummified corpses, which also held the hope of the resurrection of the pharaohs, were preserved intact.

Qin Shi Huang in the East of Asia and the pharaohs in the north of Africa both had the ambition of immortality for 10,000 years, and the pharaohs used guò "mummification" to prolong their lives, while Qin Shi Huang directly took the "elixir of immortality" to maintain his youth forever. Unfortunately, Qin Shi Huang was not able to live forever, and the pharaoh was not resurrected.

With a "boom", there was a wave of rapid tremors on the ground, and a stone sculpture weighing hundreds of catties under Lin Xuan's hand fell down instantly, his neck was broken, and his body was in a different place.

Lin Xuan's first reaction was to raise his head and loudly inform Tang Na: "Come down!"

He was afraid that the kneeling colossus would suddenly collapse, and that he could only avoid it by hiding in a low place at the moment.

Donna ran all the way down the stairs, and Lin Xuan also grabbed it and greeted it with open arms.

At the critical moment, Lin Xuan's concern for Tang Na was beyond words, and it was completely out of sincerity.

Donna threw herself into Lin Xuan's arms and sighed contentedly. Men and women who really have a heart-to-heart relationship, at this moment language has become a redundant burden.

"It's calm for now." Lin Xuan said.

"What's on the altar?" Donna asked.

Lin Xuan shook his head: "It's empty, not even dust."

Donna brushed her hair with her ten fingers, and suddenly her back turned upward, and her face changed slightly.

"What's wrong?" Lin Xuan also looked up.

The sky was gray, and the white clouds became extremely high and thick, blocking the view.

"I had the feeling that there was some kind of dust floating in the air, and although I couldn't see it, I could feel it in my nose and throat. These things are being inhaled into our lungs, and before we know it, they have been killed." Donna covered her mouth, her expression becoming anxious.

Her eyelashes were extremely long, originally black, but at this moment, they had turned pale red in Lin Xuan's eyes.

Lin Xuan stretched out his hand and carefully brushed it on Tang Na's eyelashes, and his fingertips were suddenly dyed red.

"Yes...... Blood Rain?" Donna changed color in shock.

"Maybe it is, maybe it isn't." Lin Xuan wasn't sure, and waited until he put his fingertips under his nose and sniffed twice before he reluctantly admitted, "It's indeed with the smell of blood."

Suddenly, a crimson flame rose from the top of the altar, rose to a height of more than ten meters, jumped and burned, and made a terrifying "whirring" sound.

Lin Xuan blocked Tang Na behind him and stared at the altar, a layer of cold sweat immediately oozed from his back. The flames came suddenly, and if he was still standing on the altar, he would have turned into ashes in an instant.

"In the secret files of the National Security Bureau, there have been some intermittent and vague folk research materials, including the content of 'blood and rain in the axis of the earth, demon fire, and bottomless deep wells'. There are no pictures to back it up, so it's ignored by everyone." Donna said.

Lin Xuan smiled bitterly: "Really? If those folk histories are true, then we are close to the axis of the earth, which is really good news! "

He had inspected the altar before, and the surface was smooth, the masonry joints were neat, and there was certainly no furnace mouth that could release fire. So, where did the fires come from?

The flame continued to burn for about ten minutes, and suddenly there was a loud bang, which turned into green smoke and disappeared without a trace.

Lin Xuan hesitated for a few seconds, then jumped up abruptly, stepping on the top of the stone statue's head and rushing towards the altar.

Donna didn't stop her, but followed closely behind, without fear.

The combination of the two of them is quite sharp, their hearts are connected, they act in unison, and when combined, they definitely achieve the super effect of "one plus one is greater than two".

A three-meter-square hole appeared in the center of the altar, from which the flames came out.

Lin Xuan looked down, and there was a faint dark red liquid rolling in the depths.

"It's magma." Lin Xuan had already had experience, and made a judgment at the first time, "The flame just now is the hot gas released when the hot magma rolls, and the magma liquid level is more than a hundred meters away from the cave entrance."

If it's just a magma well, then it's not worth the slightest hint of their time wasting observation. Strangely, Lin Xuan found extremely narrow stairs on all sides of the cave entrance, which stretched all the way down. The width of the steps is only two inches, half the width of an adult. [,! The soles of the feet can't fit and don't have any practical value.

Lin Xuan leaned over and stroked those inverted steps, and couldn't help but wonder again in his heart: "This kind of ladder can't stand at all, even a young man with a sole length of no more than fifteen centimeters can't use it to go down to the bottom of the well. If the ladder is not for people, then what is it for? Is it just the pattern left by the ancients on the wall of the well?"

In fact, the chiseling tools of the ancient people were extremely rudimentary, so it is unlikely that they were used as decorative patterns. If there is no magma below, just ordinary well water, then these steps can be seen as a foothold for the well diggers to go up and down. However, the bottom of the well is blazing magma, and no one would be bold enough to risk their lives to dive in.

"Lin Xuan, what should we do?" Donna looked behind Lin Xuan.

"After searching around a few more times, I guess there must be an escape here, and we can't be trapped here." Lin Xuan replied.

"Well, if there's no other passage, I'd like to go down there." Donna said.

"If you want to go down, I'll go down, how can it be your turn?" Lin Xuan laughed.

Tang Na also laughed, but only halfway through the laughter, the kneeling stone statue behind Lin Xuan turned dark red, like a large balloon filled with red paint.

"Huh? What's wrong with the statue?" Donna exclaimed.

The dark red swept the ground, and everywhere it went, it was swallowed up. Not only did the colossus change color, but so did the warriors and horses under the altar.

"Let's go, let's go!" Lin Xuan shouted.

"Where are you going? Where are we going?" Donna also yelled eagerly-1620741-&
