Chapter 30 Diversion
I thought that when I finished talking about these conjectures, Zhang Hefang and the others would laugh out loud. However, when I told all my conjectures, instead of laughing, they frowned and pondered. The old man standing on the side even said: "I think what Mr. Fan said has a certain truth. ”
The old python also said on the side: "Although it sounds quite nonsense, but if you think about it carefully, this is indeed more reasonable than the confrontation between theocracy and secular power, after all, this is still a priest's burial pit." ”
Zhang Hefang also nodded silently. Suddenly, a sense of pride began to flood my heart, and I said that after all this time, I had finally made a splash in the course of the adventure, which made me a little fluttery.
Bao Ye has always been straightforward, he came to my side, patted me on the shoulder, and said with a smile: "Yes, buddy, I thought you were eating dry rice." ”
I smiled bitterly twice, and for a while I didn't understand whether Bao Ye's words were praise or belittlement.
Zhang Hefang pondered for a while and said, "This kind of speculation is indeed possible, no matter what, we should move on now, but as for which side the magic weapon is, we don't know yet." ”
At this time, Brother Liao and Binzi proposed: "Boss, we have robbed a lot of ancient tombs, and we also know a little about the structure of the tomb underground palace. If there is a second situation, it means that these two corridors will definitely converge after the most difficult time. ”
Zhang Hefang pondered and asked Bin Zi and Brother Liao for advice: "Then judging from the experience of the two of you, which situation is more likely?" ”
Bin Zi and Brother Liao looked at each other twice, and said in unison: "The second case." ”
Bin Zi explained as follows: "The national strength of the ancient Shu kingdom has always been strong, and the whole kingdom is immersed in the atmosphere of mythology, such a country should attach great importance to the priesthood such as priesthood. Since they can build burial pits for the priests of the ancient Shu Kingdom in such a cold place, they will definitely not be stingy, not to mention, for thousands of years, the priests of the ancient Shu Kingdom must be countless, if this comes to an end, it will be somewhat unreasonable. ”
Zhang Hefang nodded and said, "In this case, in order not to miss the magic weapon, we will divide into two roads and cross these two roads together, do you have any objections?" ”
None of them spoke, but a look of nervousness appeared on their faces. Everyone understands that in such a deep and dark environment, knowing that there is a huge monster hidden here, it is undoubtedly a bold adventure to divide the troops into two ways, because this is tantamount to reducing the combat effectiveness of the team, and if any of us encounter that monster, I am afraid that there is no room for counterattack.
However, at the moment, in order to find the magic weapons of the six royal attendants hidden in the dirty pit of the priests of the ancient Shu Kingdom, we must take this risk.
After some distribution, the nine of us were split into two teams. The first team was led by Bao Ye, and in addition to him, there were Lao Qi, Brother Liao, and Lao Python, and they entered the corridor behind the more introverted stone statue; The second team was led by Zhang Hefang, and there were Binzi, Bu Jin, Xiao Xia, and of course there was an unruly me, and we entered the corridor behind the rough-looking stone statue.
The two teams each held a torch, before leaving each other a few words, Zhang Hefang brought the equipment naturally has a walkie-talkie, they tried it at the entrance of the road, but found that the walkie-talkie is always mixed with strange noise, it seems that there is some kind of strong magnetic field inside the mountain is interfering with the transmission of radio. But in any case, having a walkie-talkie is better than not having it, so we still put the walkie-talkie on our bodies and began to enter the corridor behind the stone statue.
After entering the Yongdao, as usual, Bin Zi walked in the front, Zhang Hefang held a torch to illuminate him, and then Xiao Xia and me, this time it was Bu Jin's turn to be behind.
At first, the walk was uneventful, but after walking about a cigarette, a strange sensation began to come from the soles of my feet. It was a feeling of unevenness, and when we looked down, we found that the stone slab under our feet was beautifully carved.
I leaned down to take a closer look, and found that the carvings were all over the corridor, and a group of delicate lifelike fish and sharks were carved at our feet, both in terms of the treatment of water ripples and the expression of the current.
I couldn't help but say to myself, "These carvings are beautiful. ”
Zhang Hefang said coldly and said, "Yes, not only under our feet, from here on, all around us are this kind of carving. ”
I raised my eyes and looked ahead, and sure enough, in the corridor ahead, all the carvings of sharks and fish were under my feet, and on the stone wall above my head were carved another animal, and when I looked closely, I found that they were some huge birds, but these were naturally not ordinary birds, they looked more wild and brave, with lion-like faces and thick manes, and there were actually two human arms under the huge wings. The stone walls on both sides of the road are carved with countless auspicious cloud patterns. Of course, if these carvings under our feet represent the monarch Yuyu, and the carvings on the top of the head represent Emperor Wangdi Du Yu, then the carvings on the stone walls on both sides may not be auspicious clouds but silk, so that the three most famous monarchs of the ancient Shu Kingdom can be linked, however, so far, this can only be regarded as a guess.
Seeing this situation, Zhang Hefang immediately shouted twice at Bao Ye and them on the walkie-talkie, and said, "Ah Bao, Ah Bao, have you seen the carving over there?" ”
The noise in the walkie-talkie was still very loud, and after a while, Bao Ye's voice appeared on the walkie-talkie: "Yes, there are wall carvings up and down, left and right." ”
Zhang Hefang asked him what shape he was, but Bao Ye's description was exactly the same as on our side, but Bao Ye's voice was already very hoarse in the noise of the walkie-talkie, and it was a little crazy in the empty corridor.
Since the situation was the same for the people on both sides, there was nothing more to talk about, and the two teams continued towards the end of the road.
As we walked, we suddenly noticed that there seemed to be an exit ahead, and there was still a faint green light shining there. Bin Zi and Zhang Hefang glanced at each other, hurriedly quickened their pace and stepped forward to check, and when we stepped forward, we found that this was not an exit, but another stone chamber, and this stone chamber was much, much smaller than we imagined.
At first, we thought that this was just an ear chamber or a buffer space, but what we didn't expect was that it was actually a confined space, that is, the corridor was here, and it came to an end.
We entered this small space, the underground palace, I have seen a lot, compared to the underground fortifications I have seen before, this place is really pitiful. I couldn't help but say, "Oh my God, isn't it, the mighty Gu Shu Kingdom is so stingy?" It's too small here. ”
Zhang Hefang looked calmer and said, "Don't worry, let's go in and have a look." ”
Once inside, we were surprised to find that the small stone chamber was filled with strange chests. These boxes resemble a trapezoid, narrow at the top and wide at the bottom, and the overall shape is hexagonal, and what surprises us even more is that the green light in this space actually comes from these strange boxes.
I stepped forward to check the boxes, but was stopped by Zhang Hefang, who said, "Don't move, those are not boxes, but coffins." ”
"Coffin?" I said, "I've never seen a coffin like this, and this box is not big, how can it contain a person's body." ”
After all, Binzi is a professional, and he said: "This is a sitting coffin, as the name suggests, that is, the bodies in these coffins are placed in the form of meditation. ”
I couldn't help but sigh, "There is still such a coffin in this world? ”
Binzi nodded and said, "Yes, although it is rare, however, there have been records of coffins in some archaeological activities. ”
I looked at the hexagonal coffin that glowed with a strange light and asked, "But what do these coffins shine for?" ”
Binzi said: "These may not be some lights, but ghost fires around the coffin. ”
"Don't talk about that yet," Zhang Hefang interrupted my conversation with Binzi with a frown, and the two of us looked at him and listened to him, "If this is a confined space, then it is very likely that this is the end of the burial pit." ”
"So what?" I didn't turn my head for a moment.
Zhang Hefang looked worried, picked up the walkie-talkie, and said, "Bao, how is the situation over there?" ”
After a while, Bao Ye's voice said: "I entered a stone room, but this is a dead end, and the priest's burial pit will not be so small." By the way, boss, what's the situation on your side? ”
Bao Ye's words were very light, but Binzi and I and the others immediately saw Zhang Hefang's expression. As soon as Bao Ye's words fell, Zhang Hefang's face immediately turned to ashes, as if the sky had fallen, and Bin Zi and I hurriedly stepped forward to ask what was wrong?
The cold sweat on Zhang Hefang's forehead dripped down, and he said nervously: "If these two roads are dead ends, then where is the monster that appeared in the stone gate just now?" ”
