At the beginning, Lao Wu and the four of them dug a thief hole and then encountered strange things and fell into this strange underground palace, at that time they were all stunned, only to feel that the breath was very uncomfortable, and there was this speckled blue light on the huge dome above their heads, with a hint of coldness to illuminate the surroundings, but the scarlet soil on the ground was particularly eye-catching.

This time, there were five people in total, eating the only dry food in the bag, and lighting a candle in a particularly luxurious way, of course, it was strongly requested by the brothers, saying that anyone who was dark and not slippery could eat mud in his mouth, and Lao Wu couldn't disagree.

"You guys just have a lot to do! I think I went to dig a well for the people in the village, oops, that well dug several places, but there was still no water, do you guess what I did in the end? Guess what! Lao Wu took a sip of soju and grinned.

Xiao Qi blinked his eyes and looked at Hu Dafang beside him. The dry food that Hu Da was eating was stuffed in his mouth, and he muttered, "Look, look at what I'm doing?" I don't like to guess this, you guys play! ”

Xiao Qi shook his head and said, "Second brother, your face is full of black water, can't you smell the smell?" ”

Hu Dazhu was happy when he heard this, and when he opened his mouth, the scum fell out, and he didn't care, so he said: "What do you know, I don't care about anything else when I have food, I don't care if my mother tastes or not, anyway, I can't eat it in my stomach, what do you like!" ”

The two of them said a few words, but the old Wu Ke was cold to the side, the big cow was playing with the sand with his head stuffy, and the remaining Professor Guan was sitting in a daze, and after he finished speaking, he suddenly felt a little embarrassed and cold, and no one responded to him and seemed to be a little stupid. Lao Wu just wanted to cough twice to remind the brother, but suddenly heard Professor Guan say: "Our current place, although it is only more than 20 meters deep from the ground, it stands to reason that this place should be particularly cold and damp, but have you noticed, since the roof turned red just now, even the soil under your feet has begun to become warm, isn't it amazing?" ”

Lao Wu heard Professor Guan talking to himself, and seemed to be talking to him, so he had no choice but to nod and say, "Yes, yes!" When I first came in, I froze terribly, and now I'm sweating, which is really, really interesting! Lao Wu said this too dryly, he was completely following what Professor Guan said, and then fell into silence, the candle flame burned very fast, the flames rose quite high, and it looked very strange.

Professor Guan stared at Lao Wu for a long time and said to him, "I've never seen a candle flame burn so high, right?" ”

Old Wu nodded and said, "I haven't seen it, it's quite high, well, it's quite high." ”

Lao Wu said this, he was a little frightened by people like Professor Guan, because he had heard that this kind of archaeologists were very crazy, and if he wanted to know that he was a tomb robber and destroyed a lot of ancient tombs, he had to use a shovel to chop them alive.

But Professor Guan shook his head with a smile, raised his hand and said, "Don't be so nervous, Old Wu, I can't eat people, but your reaction is a bit weird!" By the way, don't call me Professor Guan in the future, this is too foreign, we can meet here, this is fate, but for me, you are my savior. I'm a little uncomfortable with the respect of outsiders, you and these three brothers can call me Lao Guan, and it seems close! ”

Lao Wu never expected that Professor Guan could say such a thing, he himself is just a gravedigger, how can He De know this kind of professional scholar who has returned from overseas, but since Professor Guan has said so, he has to call it so. The five of them sat around the candle flame, eating the dry food that had been hardened, and drinking the pot of wine that had been carried in to warm their bodies.

Lao Wu first handed the wine jug to Professor Guan, afraid that after a few of them finished drinking, Professor Guan would not want to touch his mouth. But Professor Guan was a little surprised when he saw the wine jug handed over, and then his eyes unconsciously glanced around, cleared his throat and said: "Old Wu, I understand your kindness, but I am indeed not strong enough to drink, I can't drink much, don't drink too much and cause trouble to everyone when the time comes." Besides, it's already starting to warm up below, so it doesn't matter if you drink a warm wine or not. "Seeing that Professor Guan doesn't want to drink, Lao Wu naturally won't look like he usually toasts when he eats, so he has to drink.

Seeing this, Hu Dabo snatched the wine jug from Lao Wu's hand, and after taking a sip secretly, he quickly plugged the lid and said: "Hey, I said, Professor Guan said that there is no need to drink when it is warm below, so don't drink all of it, let's leave some and wait until they find the fourth child and they will drink it at that time?" As he spoke, Hu Dazhu's eyes stared at the wine jug tightly, and Lao Wu Chou covered his head with his hands and followed him.

After eating and resting for a while, Professor Guan was the first to stand up, and picked up a candle to illuminate the mural, carefully observing the painting on it, and there was no response for a long time. Lao Wu stretched out his hand and patted Xiao Qi, motioning for him to look at Hu Da and Da Niu, and asked the two of them not to mess around, and then hurried over, walked behind Professor Guan and looked at the panorama of the mural with the slender light of the candle.

At first, the mural looked lifelike, but when he got closer, he found that the lines of the mural were very rough, and the characters and animal landscapes were a little abstract, but a little distorted, not like the usual kind of painting, he thought that it might be too early at that time, and the painting level of the ancients was limited, but then Professor Guan said that he was very surprised.

Professor Guan held the candle and slowly walked to the middle of the whole mural, which happened to be the human-shaped cave at the center point of the painting, where the figures and animals kneel in a circle, he raised his hand and touched the upper part of the hole, and then looked at his face in surprise, shook his head in disbelief and said: "No, it can't be like this, is it really true?" ”

Lao Wu listened to him talk to himself for a long time, so he leaned over with a shy face and asked Professor Guan, "What are you talking about, Lao Guan?" What's impossible? Can you tell me about it? ”

Professor Guan turned his head to look at him and said with a slight question, "You are also interested in this?" Didn't you dig graves? ”

Lao Wu knew that he had asked too much at this time, and he didn't think much about his curiosity, but he didn't expect this Professor Guan to be so sensitive, so he actually asked him, so he had to smile and say: "This place can open the eyes of our brothers, so naturally I am more curious, if it is inconvenient to say, then I didn't ask anything, okay?" ”

Professor Guan suddenly smiled and patted Lao Wu's shoulder and said, "Lao Wu, I'm joking with you!" Don't think about it! There's nothing inconvenient to say, since you're interested, I'll tell you about it. After speaking, Professor Guan pointed to the upper part of the humanoid cave and asked Lao Wu to look at it.

But Lao Wu didn't see anything after trying to see it, and finally after Professor Guan mentioned it, he saw from the side that there were a few strange symbols carved on the wall, which looked like some kind of text, a little charm of Chinese characters but very strange, so he had to ask Professor Guan for advice.

With a mysterious smile, Professor Guan touched the symbol with his hand and said: "When I was young, I specialized in the study of ancient characters, and I have deciphered the characters of many foreign relics with the archaeological team, of course, the most proficient is our ancient culture." I can conclude that these symbols are an ancient script, which should have been lost long before the pre-Qin period. But I once stumbled upon a huge stone tablet at a monument in Gansu Province, with a strange and familiar text engraved on it, and after the efforts of many scholars, after three months we have deciphered most of the content, and we also understand the meaning of many combinations of words. After Professor Guan finished saying this, he slowly removed his fingers, dug up a lump of damp red soil from the ground, smeared it on the place where the words were engraved, and then smoothed it with his hands, so that he could clearly see the mysterious words.

Professor Guan had a trace of excitement in his eyes that did not match his tired body, he seemed to have found something and couldn't suppress his feelings, his hand holding the candle was trembling, and then he said to Lao Wu with an excited tone: "These words mean eternal or eternal, but according to the similar sacrificial scene on the mural, it should be 'eternal life'!" ”
