Seeing the nervous expressions of Liu Cong and the others, Chen Ziyang turned over and got up, ready to lean over to see what was going on.

At this time, Liu Cong noticed that he had woken up, so he made a silent gesture to Chen Ziyang, and waved at him gently, meaning to let him be careful when he passed, so as not to wake up other people.

Carefully bypassing the team members sleeping around the bonfire, Chen Ziyang came to Liu Cong's side.

At this time, Liu Congzheng and Zhang Linfu were squatting behind the closed half door, and the two of them had solemn faces. Chen Ziyang, who came over, tightened his collar, this place was much colder than the place where he slept just now, and suddenly changed from the warm sleeping environment to this place, and he shivered a few times.

"What's wrong?" Chen Ziyang asked in a whisper in Liu Cong's ear.

"Be quiet, listen." Just said such a sentence to Chen Ziyang, Liu Cong turned his head and continued to look out the door.

Chen Ziyang pricked up his ears, pointed his ears in the direction of the gate, and listened carefully for a while, but he didn't hear any strange sounds.

Sensing that he might be a little far away, he rubbed his body forward, clinging to the half-stone door that the team had built themselves, and continued to listen out of the door.

"Wow...... Woo wow......" A sound of a baby crying, mixed with some slight wind sounds, came into Chen Ziyang's ears.

Hearing the sound of the baby crying, he was visibly stunned, then shook his head, which had been a little dazed from sleep, to sober up a little, and continued to listen.

Chen Ziyang didn't believe that he would hear the sound of a baby crying here, this is too unbelievable, it is simply impossible, is there still people living in this underground mausoleum city.

It is impossible for people to live here, the possibility must be zero, but what about the sound of the baby crying before? Could it be a ghost? So he thought it was very likely that he had misheard, and that the response should not be the sound of a baby crying, but some kind of wind sound.

"Wow...... Woo wow...... "This time the baby's crying voice was much louder, Chen Ziyang's eyes widened suddenly, yes, this is not the wind at all. Then he turned his head and looked at Zhang Linfu and Liu Cong, who were also puzzled.

"We have been listening to it for a long time, and sometimes this child's crying sounds very far away, the sound is very small, sometimes it sounds very clear, the sound is very loud, it should be relatively close to us, as if there are children crying in different parts of the city. However, the baby's cries all sounded the same, and they must have come from the same thing. ”

After Liu Cong said this, Chen Ziyang felt that this matter was a little weird, and at this time, in his eyes, the faint green light reflected on the surrounding houses was mixed with something different, casting a layer of mystery on the whole thing.

"You go and rest, we're watching here, there shouldn't be anything going on."

After nodding, Chen Ziyang returned to the fire and added a few more pieces of wood to the fire. But this time he couldn't sleep when he lay down, and the baby's cry lingered in his ears all the time.

There is no sun to be seen in the Imperial Tomb City, and even in the daytime, it is still dark and green. Maybe it was because I was really tired the day before, even when the sun was rising, the people in the team still didn't get up, and even when everyone woke up, they still didn't want to leave the warm campfire.

Chen Ziyang secretly told Yang Lei and Umbrella Shishuai about the crying of the baby last night, and told the two of them to be careful, there should be something weird hidden in this city of imperial tombs, and they must not be left alone when they act, so they can take care of it.

The team then moved on, ignoring the houses on either side, and the clear goal of the team was the tall building in the distance, which could be seen clearly.

If you go any further, you will be out of reach of the communication repeater, and you will lose contact with the two team members who are left outside. Liu Cong had a call with them, and after hearing that there was nothing unexpected outside and everything was going well, he asked the two team members a few words and cut off the communication.

The closer you get to the tall building, the clearer the outline of the building becomes. It is a pyramid-shaped building, large at the bottom, wide at the bottom, narrow at the top, but the top of the building is flat, and it looks like a tall pyramid has been cut off at the top.

It wasn't until everyone got closer that they saw that this tall building was not a palace, but a stargazing platform. Compared to the tallest buildings in the surrounding area, which is no more than three stories tall, this observatory stands out from the crowd.

The observatory is fifty or sixty meters high, and the width of the widest place below is also sixty or seventy meters, and a long series of steps more than ten meters wide extend to the flat top of the observatory, and the sides of the steps and the top of the observatory are also inlaid with stone railings. The entire observatory is made of long stone bricks like the city wall, which looks particularly domineering.

Everyone else was amazed at the grandeur of the building, but Liu Cong's eyes showed a hint of disappointment. Originally, he thought that this building was likely to be the location of the imperial palace, and the iron book that recorded the treasures of the dragon veins of the Great Qing Dynasty was hidden inside, but he didn't expect that this was just an innocuous thing.

However, there was one person who was particularly excited, and it was Guo Huaxing, the star master of Maoshan. Guo Huaxing looked at this stargazing platform that could only appear in his dreams, and was excited, regardless of the obstruction of others, he was the first to walk up the steps, wanting to feel the momentum of the stargazing platform in the Tang Dynasty.

Liu Cong didn't pull him back either, after all, the height of this observatory is very high, and if you stand on it, you are likely to see farther, which will help the next team to find the target.

After loudly reminding Guo Huaxing to move forward carefully, Liu Cong commanded the rest of the team to walk up the steps one after another.

Jada said that he didn't want to climb these steps, so Liu Cong left a team member behind to take care of the unconscious Li Linzhi with Jada.

At this time, Guo Huaxing, who had walked out more than a dozen steps, suddenly stopped, staring at the steps under his feet, and then he actually squatted down and carefully stroked the steps in front of him with both hands.

With the reminder of Guo Huaxing's strange movements, Chen Ziyang realized that these steps were not smooth, and there were one star map after another carved on them.

Constellations are carved on these steps, and the stars that make up the constellations are connected in straight lines. The constellations depicted on each step are all different.

There are very few people who understand such things as astrology except Guo Huaxing, and Zhang Linfu only looked down a few times, and then stopped paying attention. Guo Huaxing, who was the first to go out, slowly fell to the end of the team.

He was so focused that he had to crouch down and watch for a long time every time he crossed a step. At the same time, he muttered that he didn't know what he was talking about, and his face was full of surprise.

Zhen Hao was the first to climb the stargazing platform, but he suddenly stopped when he saw the top of the stargazing platform, and instantly lay on the steps, and at the same time hurriedly made a careful gesture to the people behind him.

Seeing Zhenhao's reminder, the others knew that there must be something going on on the stargazing platform. Chen Ziyang, who followed closely, climbed the last two steps with a prostrate movement, and also saw what Zhen Hao was on guard on the stargazing platform.

In one corner of the stargazing platform, there was a man standing.

The man appears to be very tall, at least 1.9 meters tall. The person standing on the stargazing platform has his back to the crowd, his hands behind his back, a bun on his head, and a hairpin across the bun, this person is wearing a dark yellow robe, and a huge yin and yang fish pattern behind him is particularly conspicuous.

At this time, other people also came to the top of the stargazing platform one after another, and there was a row of people lying on the steps more than ten meters wide, all staring at the person standing on the stargazing platform.

"It was like a sculpture." After staring at this person for a long time, Chen Ziyang saw from some details that this should not be a real person.

Liu Cong and Zhen Hao nodded at the same time, and then Liu Cong gestured to Zhen Hao. Zhen Hao, who got the order, took the gun, cautiously climbed the stargazing platform, and slowly approached the statue in the corner.

A row of heads was exposed outside the steps, and all the eyes of everyone were focused on Zhen Hao's body, and the atmosphere did not dare to come out.

After slowly approaching this person in an arc from a distance, Zhen Hao made a reassuring gesture to everyone, and then he cautiously detoured in front of this person, and after looking at it for a while, he said to the people behind: "Don't worry, this is indeed a sculpture." ”

Seeing that Zhenhao had confirmed that there was no danger there, the others couldn't wait to climb the stargazing platform together and came to the front of the sculpture, wanting to take a closer look.

The statue is beautifully carved and every detail is meticulously detailed. The face of the statue looks a little old, but this person's face is heroic, and at first glance he looks like a master of the Tao.

The sculpture of the old man stood with his hands behind his back, looking up at the sky, his eyes were blazing, and he kept staring at the "starry sky" in the sky.

Since entering the city of imperial tombs, this is the first time that everyone has seen something with color, the whole body of the statue is painted with a very thick layer of oil paint, I don't know what these oil paint is made of, after so many years, although some of it falls off, but the color is still very gorgeous, and the surrounding countless earthy yellow stones with pale green light form a sharp contrast.

"Yuan Tiangang? Could it be that he is Yuan Tiangang? Yang Lei's words are the answer to everyone's guesses, and they can't imagine that more than a thousand years later, everyone will still have the opportunity to see the face of the first national teacher of the Tang Dynasty.

"Come and see here." Xu Xiaoyuan pointed to a stone screen in front of the statue and shouted loudly.

Only then did the others notice that there was a stone screen more than three meters wide in front of the statue, and a stone sculpture was carved on the screen.

"Is a screen worth all the fuss, I really haven't seen anything in the world." Yang Lei muttered as he walked to the front of the screen, but when he saw the carved things on the screen, he also opened his mouth wide and was surprised.

The pattern on the screen is carved on the top of the stargazing platform, and the statue of Yuan Tiangang stands in the corner, and there is a square thing in front of him, which should refer to the screen in front of everyone, and there are nine people carved behind Yuan Tiangang.

The nine people were divided into two rows, the first row was two people, standing behind Yuan Tiangang, and seven people were lined up, standing a little farther away.

The two people closest to Yuan Tiangang were also wearing Taoist robes, and these two people stood there facing each other, judging from the looks and expressions on the faces of the two people, the two of them seemed to be arguing about something.

The seven people in the second row were still wearing Taoist robes, these seven people were six men and one woman, and the seven people were neatly lined up, staring at the two people and the three sculptures in front of them.

Originally, there was nothing strange about the carvings on this screen, but the most surprising thing was that the seven people in the second row who only showed their backs were the same as the seven masters of Maoshan in terms of height and size, but there was no Jada in the sculpture, and it was Xu Xiaoyuan who was surprised who replaced him.

"My God, these seven people don't refer to us, are these two people in front of you Zhang Taixu and Wang Dingqian? What exactly does this mean by the engraving on the screen? Is it a prophecy? Jin Huang almost put his face on the screen, and said in surprise.

"Prophecy? That's too, how could the people who built this place know that Zhang Taixu and Wang Dingqian would come? How did you know we were coming? It's been more than a thousand years, and even if it's a prediction, it's impossible to be so accurate, right, even the gender can be predicted? ”

"Then why do these seven people look exactly like us? And why are these nine people on the sculpture divided into two rows? This is obviously the same people who have come here in succession, which is exactly in line with our previous guess. ”

……

The people in the team quarreled with each other, and no one could understand what was going on, and everyone's hearts were full of questions.

"Okay, don't quarrel, Yuan Tiangang once co-authored "Tui Bei Tu" with Li Chunfeng, which is said to have predicted the major events that will happen more than 2000 years later, although there are many exaggerated elements in this, but it is enough to prove that these two people have the ability to deduce the future, and it is not a big deal for them to expect our arrival." Zhang Linfu spoke out to stop everyone's quarrel.

Chen Ziyang stared at the villain with the same figure as himself on the sculpture, the more he looked at it, the more he felt that this person was like himself, and the other people were all descendants of Maoshan around him, especially the only woman in the screen.

Unlike other people, this woman showed a side face, and the outline of the side face was exactly the same as Xu Xiaoyuan, if this carving was someone else, Chen Ziyang would not believe it.

"This place is not simple," Zhang Linfu said meaningfully, .......
