Chapter XXXVIII: The Sarcophagus
With the sound of Qiushui "lying down", the suddenly fell to the ground, and the dense crossbow arrows "swished" through his back, which was very thrilling. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info In this case, I am afraid that if he moves, he may be pierced through the heart by a sharp arrow.
And the autumn water did not fall and hide like a, but moved like a ghost, only hearing the sound of "Huohuo", and everywhere he went, the sharp arrows fell down with a "whoosh". Later, he actually jumped up, jumped to a height of three meters while stepping on the gluttony, and then the bronze ancient sword slammed the stone door on his head, and then, the rain of arrows stopped.
It was so thrilling that even though I saw it with my own eyes, I still felt a little unreal. Shouldn't these be the bridges in the movie? How can you do what you want here in Qiushui, is this still human?
Compared to my shocked look, Professor Nara seemed much calmer, as if all this was taken for granted. What surprised me the most was Qiuyi, this person seemed a little indifferent, could it be that this scene, in her eyes, has become commonplace?
I walked up to Professor Liang for some reason, and wondered, "Professor Liang, what is the origin of this autumn water?" ”
Professor Liang smiled and said, "This is not very clear. It's just that the name "Qiu Shao" is very loud on the road, and I also found him through trust. His style of acting is very ruthless, as long as he fights, there is no possibility of hollowing out. ”
I nodded thoughtfully, then looked over to the stone gate, saw that the was already on his feet, and said, "Let's go." ”
After we passed, the with a frightened face touched the gluttonous mouth and said, "I'm scared to death Heiye, this thing is even more fierce than the legend, and it almost killed Heiye." ”
"This unclear thing, you kid will give me a mess again, don't ask for this little life next time." Professor Liang glanced at the and said sharply.
I walked to the door and looked at it, and found that the small round hole where the sharp arrow had been shot had all been hidden again, and it seemed that the last blow of Qiushui had indeed played a key role. I turned to him and asked, "On top of this door, too, is the mechanism?" ”
Qiushui nodded, and said softly, "I found out before the crossbow bolt mechanism was activated. But at the time I wasn't sure what it was for. After the triggered the machine, I noticed a change in the pattern on it, so I came to push the boat. As I expected, it was holding back the mechanism inside the stone gate. ”
Professor Liang on the side illustrated: "Then this door can be opened now?" ”
At this time, Qiuyi walked to the door, pushed it with both hands, and the door "creaked" and opened, and there was a deep staircase inside.
The staircase was about ten meters long, and there was a corner, and we went all the way down the corner, and before we got out of ten meters, another corner, and just like that, we passed six corners in a row, and finally came to a cave. I glanced around the cave door and found that the cave was the size of a basketball court, oval-shaped, and the walls of the cave were densely packed with small doorways, like passages on the walls.
As soon as you enter the cave door, the first thing that catches your eye is the two giant stone pillars on both sides of the cave, which are very stout, estimated to have a radius of one meter, leading directly to the top of the cave. The stone pillar is round, from the bottom all the way up, the whole ring, are carved with some soaring herons carved fish patterns, very spectacular.
In the middle of the two stone pillars, a raised flat square low stone platform rises on the ground, and a large rectangular stone is placed on the stone platform. After being in the tomb for so long, he finally saw the coffin, and the seemed a little excited, humming a little song while touching the sarcophagus.
"Damn, there must be a lot of funeral goods in such a big coffin, right?" The said to himself, and I glanced at him, and saw that his eyes were shining, and the corners of his mouth were almost reaching the roots of his ears.
Professor Liang frowned, and said to the, "Don't move, you kid, wait for some moth." "Presumably, Professor Liang is still worried about the trouble caused by the, otherwise he would not be so nervous.
The laughed stupidly, obviously forgetting his previous masterpiece, and said: "Don't get in the way, how can I say that Hei Ye is also a character who deals with coffins all year round!" ”
Professor Liang glared at him, did not speak again, but looked at the coffin with a flashlight. The began to mumble on the side: "Professor Liang, this sarcophagus looks very tight, I'm afraid it's not easy to open, right?" ”
"The degree of sealing was very good, it was a bit of a hassle. However, such a thing as opening a coffin sometimes requires skill, and you have to think about it slowly. ”
I looked at the sarcophagus with a flashlight and found that the relief on the lid of the coffin was actually a big frog. And in front of the sarcophagus, there is a fierce crocodile. I looked at the sides of the sarcophagus again, and there were cows and deer carved respectively.
I'm wondering how this sarcophagus can be carved with some ordinary animals, and my heart says that at least it has to be a green dragon and a white tiger, right? Unexpectedly, before I reached the end of the sarcophagus to confirm the last relief, Qiushui on the side suddenly whispered: "Snakes, frogs, crocodiles, deer, and cows, these are all totems that the Zhuang people have been advocating since ancient times." Since it is carved on the same sarcophagus, it means that the Xiou at that time had not branched out. In this place of Baiyue, almost every clan has its own branch, and the totem of each branch is different. From this point of view, this sarcophagus and this tomb should have been planned before the "Qin Ou War". ”
"What Qiu Shao said is reasonable." The slipped to Qiu Shui's side and sighed, "Qiu Shao's talent is really not comparable to us ordinary people, but why can't I hear what this has to do with immortality?" Isn't that the elixir we're looking for? ”
As soon as the words came out, I was stunned for a moment, is there really such a thing as an elixir in the world? I originally thought that the "Eternal Life Palace" recorded on the Shinto tablet was just a thought, but I didn't think that there was such a thing. I looked at the few people in front of me, and suddenly had mixed feelings in my heart, and asked, "Is there really such a thing as an elixir?" ”
Qiushui glanced at me, still with a faint expression, he turned his head to glance at the sarcophagus a few times, and said, "Theoretically, there is no such thing. ”
"Theoretically?" The nigger was a little impatient, but he didn't dare to make a fuss at Qiushui, but kicked angrily at the sarcophagus: "Damn, you have to open this thing quickly, if there is anything, you will only know when you see it." ”
Unexpectedly, the had just stopped, and before he could retract his feet, there was a burst of "snort" sound from inside the sarcophagus, which was very harsh in this empty cavern.
