Chapter 70: The Golden Burial Chamber
"Again? Every time you encounter this darkness, the flashlight seems to lose its effect. I whispered.
"Mai Lao, do we want to go in now?" Jenny asked tentatively.
Mai Lao replied with a cold face, "You guys are waiting for me here, I'll go and see." When he had finished speaking, he walked alone to the stone gate.
I glanced at Jiao Ba, he shook his head gently at me, meaning that we should wait for Mai Lao's information, and when Mai Lao stopped when he walked to the entrance, he turned sideways and said, "Stay here, don't run around." ”
"Hey Mai Lao."
When I was about to call out to him, he had already left, and when he walked into the stone gate, the whole person quickly disappeared, the darkness completely enveloped him, and he couldn't even find a shadow, but before he could wait for half a minute, Mai Lao's figure reappeared, and he was standing on the edge of the stone gate.
Because the inside of the stone door was lit up, I could see him at a glance, and at this time I realized that this was indeed a tomb, although I couldn't see the environment inside, but my intuition told me that we were in the right place.
Before the others could react, I rushed in as soon as possible, I stood next to Mai Lao, scanning the entire tomb building, but when I saw the true face of this tomb, I was already speechless with surprise.
At this time, other people also rushed over, they were all the same as me, when they saw the scene in front of them, they were undoubtedly not shocked by the qiē here, or even impressed, everyone stared at the qiē in the tomb with wide eyes, stunned, this scene, presumably even in the dream, we have never dreamed of it.
This place is almost the same as the Taihe Hall of the Imperial Palace, but according to the specifications, it is smaller than the Taihe Palace, but the whole tomb is resplendent gold, all around, including the foot, are all golden, it is this golden light, the whole tomb is illuminated, these things on the stone wall, as if it will shine gold, but I know, this is not gold at all.
The big man was a little stupid at this time and said, "My mother, is this a tomb?" Is this better than the palace? ”
"The building here is very similar to the Taihe Hall of the Forbidden City, but there are some differences." I stood in the doorway, looked around, and said.
"Oh my God, it's really incredible, Emperor Jianwen's mausoleum can be so luxurious." Li Xin said with a look of surprise.
"What's that glittering around there? Is it gold? Jenny asked.
Jiao Ba sneered, "It can't be gold, even if he Jianwen Emperor is rich, it is impossible to take away so much gold." ”
"That's not necessarily, he can build a mausoleum here, let alone this bit of gold." The big man muttered behind him.
Chang Shan shook his head and said, "It's definitely not gold, gold won't have this kind of light, it must be some kind of special stone, after it comes into contact with human skin, it will emit this golden light, what do you say?" ”
Mai Lao's eyebrows twitched, and he sneered and said, "That's right, that's it, when I came into contact with this stone wall, I lit up the entire tomb, hehe, we have gone through a lot of hardships, and finally found here, I finally didn't wait in vain, I knew that I would definitely find this." ”
"Yes, after all the hardships and the death of so many people, we stepped on their corpses to get here step by step." I feel a little sad, and the thought of those dead companions makes my heart feel very bad, and without the sacrifices of those people, we would not have been able to get here.
Mai Lao said with a cold face, "To do big things, someone has to sacrifice, this is inevitable, there is nothing to be sad about." When he had finished speaking, he went straight to the burial chamber, and as soon as we saw him leave, we hurried to follow.
This old fellow has become even more ruthless, we have died so many companions, but he has not reacted at all, before he would say some comforting words, or a sad expression, but now he is, except for indifference, I do not see any emotional color.
I have always been very grateful to him before, after all, he has saved me many times, but now that I think about it, I really responded to Jiao Ba's words, the reason why he saved us is because we still have the value of use, if we were all straw bales, we must have been dumped by him a long time ago, it seems that what he did before was just his disguise, and now that he has come to this last stop, he no longer needs to disguise himself, it is really tricky.
Mai Lao's pace was very slow, so slow that it was slower than walking, it was the kind of unhurried way forward, and the rest of us had to follow him slowly, and after entering this tomb, we could completely see the environment inside.
In the middle of this burial chamber, there are two rows of kneeling people, to be precise, it should be two rows of kneeling stone statues, they are wearing the clothes of Ming Dynasty officials, all of them pose a look of three kneeling and nine knocking, they are holding the ground with both hands, bending over, and their heads are almost on the ground, it can be seen that they should be officials of the Ming Dynasty, which is to fully prove the identity of Emperor Jianwen, and this alone can be seen that this is a special imperial mausoleum.
But they are not ordinary stone statues, the general stone statues are the color of gray-white stone, and these two rows of kneeling ministers, all of them are golden, and they look very similar to the four walls around them, and they should also be some kind of special stones, and it may be a kind of stone with this stone wall, but I don't know what it is.
On both sides of the tomb, there are two rows of large gold pillars, these gold pillars are very majestic, and they are also very magnificent, just like the golden pillars in the Taihe Palace, it looks like even the size is about the same, the pillars are carved with coiling dragons, but there are not as many golden pillars as the Taihe Palace, but the only difference is that these golden pillars are much brighter than the golden pillars in the Forbidden City, still shining, and the surrounding stone walls, as well as the stone statues of the ministers are very close, and they all look like they are made of the same special stone.
"You see, these stone statues should be ministers of the Ming Dynasty, and they are obviously worshipping the emperor." Jenny pointed to the stone statue, "Well, I can see it too, but I'm curious, why does this stone statue shine too?" I asked, confused.
"It's not simple, it must be made of a special kind of stone, just like the surrounding stone walls." Li Xin said with a smile, I finally saw her smile, I can't remember how long it took me not to see the smile on her face.
"And what kind of stones are these? And even sparkle? The big man asked with a big grin.
"It should have something to do with this isolated island, you think about it, there is yellow sand everywhere here, maybe under the yellow sand, or in a corner of the island, there is this special stone, and then Emperor Jianwen used this special stone to create his unique mausoleum." Chang Shan explained very professionally that this man is still so mysterious, he seems to know a lot of things, presumably he is not just a Taoist or a Buddhist.
"Brother Changshan is right, these stones are just a resource on the island, nothing strange, but it's the first time I've seen this kind of main tomb, and it will be built like a palace, which is really an eye-opener for me, especially this golden stone statue, it's a miracle." Jiao Ba squinted his mouse-like eyes and said angrily.
"It's not like that, if this stone statue is transported back, then we will be developed, and it is guaranteed to be worth a fortune." The big man rubbed his hands together with a greedy expression on his face.
"This stone statue is indeed a good thing, don't say you're tempted, even I'm tempted." Jenny stared at a stone statue with an unnatural expression.
"The terracotta warriors and horses of the Qin Dynasty are priceless treasures, any one is an inestimable treasure, although the history of the Ming Dynasty is many years later than the Qin Dynasty, but these stone statues made of gold and stone are definitely unprecedented treasures of creation, I can say for sure that these golden stone statues will never be worse than the terracotta warriors, but will only be more valuable than it." Li Xin said seriously.
"I think so too, not to mention anything else, just this special stone, it is a priceless treasure, not to mention this golden stone statue, and the secret of Emperor Jianwen has always been a mystery, and now we have found it, hehe, if we can really take away one or two stone statues, we will all become rich." Jiao Baxie smiled, and said with a little evil in his eyes.
"But even if you take it? Who should we sell to? Wouldn't this be considered a national treasure? "The big man is cranky again.
But what I didn't expect was that Chang Shan actually followed suit, "No, because it wasn't found in China, but if it were me, I wouldn't sell it to anyone, and of course I would have to collect something as valuable as this." ”
"You think so much, aren't you afraid of the resurrection of this stone statue?" I suddenly felt a little headache, this stone statue can't be taken away at all, it seems that I know, it must be dead, they are good, and they are still on this whimsical discussion, it really makes me speechless.
As soon as I said this, they woke up from their hallucinations, and the resurrection of the stone statue was the thing we were most worried about, but Jiao Ba said very calmly, "It should be fine, Brother Yi, don't always disturb the morale of the army." ”
"I think you're thinking about it." I glared at him and said angrily.
At this time, Mai Lao suddenly stopped, and said to us with a side face, "Let's take a look around, presumably the treasure should be here." ”
"Really? That's great, I'm just waiting for this day. As soon as the big man heard about the treasure, his whole body became excited.
Jiao Ba said expressionlessly, "Why are you so excited?" I'll find it first. ”
"That's right, just now I saw your face that you were going to die or live, and now I can't stand you when I say it's changing." Jenny shook her head helplessly and said.
The big man's face turned a little red, and he stammered, "Whoever is excited, I'm just a little bit of a forget, what are you doing that useless, it's important to find the treasure quickly." ”
"Be safe, don't let your guard down, I always feel that something is not right here." Chang Shan reminds us.
