Chapter 31 Underground Construction

The entrance to this section of the wall is that Ma Liuling and Ma Yuhu are gone. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info But after entering the entrance, I found that this is a house, which is wider than the house, and if it is said to be a hall, people believe it, but it is a miniature version of the hall. It doesn't look like a mausoleum here, and even Qu Dongxia is amazed.

"It's really strange, those villagers outside say that this is the royal tomb, why don't I look like it at all? It's like a buried royal city. ”

Yao Dashan didn't speak, just looked around curiously, and there were two pillars in the miniature version of the hall in front of him, and the pillars were faintly carved with cloud patterns, but this pillar had been roughly exposed after years of corrosion.

Qu Dongxia took a closer look and said, "Mahogany? Such a thick mahogany column can be regarded as a heart, but unfortunately nothing can be seen clearly on it. ”

Yao Dashan held a torch to shine on the wall, the wall was very smooth, as if it had been renovated, but the wall had turned yellow, and it could be seen that there had been many years here.

Qu Dongxia looked at it and muttered: "It's really shabby, there is not even a little valuable mural left, it can be seen that this kingdom has fallen to what extent." ”

Yao Dashan suddenly said, "Third brother, don't you think it's strange? ”

Qu Dongxia said: "What's wrong? ”

Yao Dashan said: "There is no door here, just the one we just came in, could it be that the royal tomb they said is this palm-sized place?" It's not right, why are Boss Ma and that little girl gone? ”

Qu Dongxia noticed that there was no second door around, but he was able to calm down, he said: "Don't worry, I guess there must be a mechanism here, Ma Liu0's old guy is really lucky, he actually found the mechanism so quickly." Look, no one has been here for a long time, and they will leave traces if they touch the mechanism. ”

When Yao Dashan heard this, he looked carefully at the wall with a torch, hoping to find a secret door, and there was a thin layer of white powder on the wall that would fall off when touched, so even if there was a crack in the wall, he could not see it. But the hard work paid off, and Yao Dashan soon saw the traces left on the wall that he had touched with his hands.

"Third brother, look here."

Qu Dongxia walked over and took a closer look before reaching out and touching the wall and said, "This should be someone who just touched it, you see, the traces left on the wall, huh?" How come there is nothing? Could it be that someone accidentally touched it? It shouldn't be! ”

Qu Dongxia banged on the wall again, listened carefully with his ears sideways for a while before saying, "It seems that there should be no secret door here." ”

Yao Dashan listened carefully with his ears sideways, and Qu Dongxia asked, "What did you find?" ”

Yao Dashan said with a gloomy face: "There is a roar, like it came from the other side of the wall. ”

"How so? Why didn't I hear that? ”

Yao Dashan listened for a while and said, "It's gone." ”

Qu Dongxia said: "You must have heard it wrong. ”

Yao Dashan asked, "Third brother, you said that the corpse in the courtyard just now suddenly disappeared, where will he go?" ”

Qu Dongxia used a flashlight to shine a flashlight on the wall to find the secret door, and replied absentmindedly: "How do I know." Hey, here, here, finally found. ”

Qu Dongxia pressed his hand on the handprint on the wall and pushed it hard, and a stone door more than one person high was pushed open. Qu Dongxia shone a flashlight inside and said, "I'm walking in front of the mountain, you follow me carefully." ”

This is a three-meter-long corridor, low and narrow, and there is a unique smell in the air from the tomb. Looking at it from this end, there was a large space at the end of the corridor, but Qu Dongxia did not rush to go, but squatted down and looked at the ground with a flashlight for a while.

"It's strange, how is there only one person in the footprints underground? Ma Liuling and Ma Yuhu are two people, didn't they come to this road? ”

Yao Dashan asked, "Is there any other way to go?" ”

"Judging from the few burial chambers so far, there must be another way to go."

When I walked to the end of the corridor, I found that this burial chamber was much lower than the previous one, and the room was not large, but there were already murals on the walls around this house.

A coffin is painted on the wall in front of it, and a group of people are kneeling in front of it. The background behind the coffin is strange, like an altar with two human heads, one male and one female, both children's heads. The lines of the painting are simple and can be understood at a glance, but it is not clear which dynasty the person who bows down is wearing.

Yao Dashan felt uncomfortable when he saw such a painting, and a cold air blew through, making Yao Dashan shiver.

Qu Dongxia said strangely: "It's really strange, you see that these people are not sad. ”

Yao Dashan looked in the direction pointed by Qu Dongxia, and there was no sadness on the face of an old man who knelt down, and he still had a faint smile. And in the whole picture, there is only such an old man with a sideways face, and his expression can be seen.

Qu Dongxia said again: "The dead are not sad, but they will smile when they kneel, which is strange." It can't be a cult, right? ”

"Maybe it's a local custom."

Qu Dongxia shook his head and said, "I've been here a few times, but I haven't heard of such a custom. Forget it, I'm not an archaeologist who doesn't go to research, we still find a way to go in and have a look, to see what is different about the royal tomb, this kind of mausoleum is hard to find, and we have to visit it anyway. ”

Yao Dashan asked curiously: "Is it possible to make a windfall of sheep?" ”

Qu Dongxia said with a smile: "Little comrade, you don't want this kind of thinking, we come to visit with the attitude of learning and progress, but we have to seize this rare opportunity." ”

"Seize this unique opportunity? Oh, understood. Yao Dashan nodded seriously.

Qu Dongxia looked around and muttered, "Hey, where will the entrance be?" ”

"Oops, what almost tripped me?" Yao Dashan tripped over the demolition point, he turned around and shone it with a torch, and found that there was a stone brick protruding on the ground, and there was another stone brick not far away that was also protruding.

Qu Dongxia shone a flashlight and wondered: "Could this be the button of the mechanism?" ”

Qu Dongxia used a flashlight to shine the vicinity, there were only two raised stone bricks, and he said: "There are no other ...... here."

Before Qu Dongxia finished speaking, he heard a rumbling sound on the left, and a wall of about one meter or so slowly fell backwards, revealing the black hole inside.

The rumbling sound startled Yao Dashan, and Qu Dongxia shone it with a flashlight and said, "Okay, now the door is open, you can enter." ”

Qu Dongxia walked in and shone it in with a flashlight and found that this was a relatively large space, with many objects in it, and from here he could only see that there was a stone sculpture more than one person high, which made Qu Dongxia feel very happy.

"Finally found the item, let's go, go over and see if it's from that era."

Yao Dashan said: "There won't be a mechanism, right?" ”

Qu Dongxia didn't leave, but took out an iron ball from his pocket, he threw the iron ball into it, waited outside for a while, and didn't find any dangerous situation, so he walked in and picked up the iron ball and put it in his pocket.

"Strange, a stone bed, four stone carvings, this kind of decoration doesn't look like a mausoleum?"

Yao Dashan walked in and shone the wall with a torch, the wall was still bare, without calligraphy and painting, and the four- or five-meter-high ceiling was so black that it was impossible to see what material it was made of.

Qu Dongxia walked into the stone carvings to take a closer look and found that the four stone carvings were turtles, dragons, tigers and vermilion birds. These are the four great spirit beasts of ancient China, they are in the four directions of the stone bed, east, west, north and south, and they seem to be guarding this stone bed.

Yao Dashan walked to the side of the stone bed and said, "Third brother, why is there still runes in this bed?" ”

Qu Dongxia came over to look at it and said, "Judging from the portrait I looked at outside, this should be an altar and not a royal tomb, but I don't understand why an altar should be placed underground?" ”

"Boom ......"

At this moment, the door behind them quickly closed, and Yao Dashan said anxiously: "Oh no, the exit is going to be closed." ”

But the wall closed quickly, leaving Yao Dashan who ran over at a loss, Qu Dongxia comforted: "Don't worry, there will definitely be other exits." ”

Yao Dashan was very anxious, he said: "How do I feel that this place is like a pit for people to enter, and that door also opens automatically for no reason, and closes automatically for no reason, will there be anything strange in this?" ”

Qu Dongxia touched the stone carving, and then touched the stone carving, he said: "Don't worry, this place should be built for at least a hundred years, you see that there is not even a single corpse here, there must be another way out." ”

This sentence was reasonable, Yao Dashan's anxious mood slowly calmed down, and he also began to look for an exit.

Qu Dongxia looked down at the stone bed thoughtfully, and then he said, "Dashan, come over and push this bed to see if you can push it." ”

When Yao Dashan heard this, he handed the torch to Qu Dongxia, and he pushed the stone bed hard, and suddenly he felt that the stone bed was moving slowly, as if there was a sliding door, and he pushed the stone bed away without much effort in this direction.

The stone bed was pushed open to reveal a dark hole. Qu Dongxia hurriedly came over and took a flashlight to shine it, and found that this was another underground tunnel.

Yao Dashan wondered, the ground he was standing on was already four or five meters underground, and now there was an underground tunnel, so how deep would this underground be? Will there be water in it?

Qu Dongxia handed the torch to Yao Dashan and said, "I'll go ahead, and you will follow behind me." ”

Yao Dashan asked, "Third brother, this can't be a water cellar, right?" ”

Qu Dongxia said: "The ancients you can think of will also think of it, don't worry, if it's a water cellar, we will return it." ”

This underground tunnel is more than three meters deep, and then it is about one and a half meters high, and people must bend down to walk in it. The tunnels have not been reinforced, but there are no signs of collapse inside.

Qu Dongxia said: "This place is like a place to escape, maybe we can walk out by following this road." ”

Yao Dashan asked, "How can there be an escape passage here?" ”

Qu Dongxia explained: "In ancient times, after the completion of such a project, it was common to kill all the construction workers for the sake of secrecy, so some people secretly dug tunnels to escape in order to survive. ”

Yao Dashan's eyes were sharp, and he exclaimed, "Third brother, there are lights in front." ”
