Chapter 39: The Burial Chamber 1

Although it was in the dark, I couldn't see the entire tomb clearly, but with the faint flashlight, I still felt that the tomb should be hundreds of meters long. This is only half the distance, in fact, if the tombs at both ends of the central axis are combined, it should be more than 200 meters long. This length is already quite impressive. You must know that the tombs of ordinary princes and nobles, the tomb road is at most a few meters or more than ten meters, and those who go up dozens of meters are already quite high-status people.

As mentioned earlier, the tomb road of this tomb is in the shape of "Zhong", that is, there are two tomb roads horizontally, and the total length of these two tomb roads should be more than 400 meters.

With such a long tomb passage, the area of the burial chamber should be quite considerable. Fu Ying said that this is a king's tomb, so it should be undoubted. As for what kind of king it is, if there is no real and detailed information, no one dares to say for sure. Perhaps, as Huang Runran said, this king may just be a "mountain king", but the clever mountain king, can you say that he has no money? Moreover, the habit of the Chinese is that they are not willing to spend when they are alive, and they must be brought to the grave as a funeral gift.

In the process of detecting with a gopher just now, it was found that a major accident seemed to have occurred in this tomb, all the stone figures or stone town tomb beast statues were destroyed on the ground, and the ground was a mess, and there were overturned stone men and stone beasts everywhere, so it was quite difficult to walk.

It took Yang Hao and the others almost more than twenty minutes to trek out of this ruin and came to the burial chamber in the south.

I saw that the door of the burial chamber had been opened. It is a huge stone gate made of basalt, about four meters high and three meters wide, which has now been fully raised, and on the left side of the door there is a rudder-like relief, which protrudes from the wall about ten centimeters - this is obviously the mechanism that opens the tomb door. Because this relief should have been completely embedded in the wall, now it sticks out of the wall, and it seems that someone has pulled it out.

Yang Hao looked at Fu Ying and said, "Yingying, is this what my father opened it?"

Fu Ying shook her head and said, "No, this method of opening the mechanism is not my father's. My father usually went straight into the cave and didn't even touch the mechanism here. You must know that any mechanism has a hidden murderous intention, and if it is opened rashly, it will definitely bring about death! My father's first consideration is to save his life. Only by retreating can we eliminate the fruits of the inverted bucket. ”

"Miss Fu, what type of organ does this organ belong to, and what kind of murderous motives are hidden?" asked Heng Qi.

Fu Ying replied: "This is a combination lock - that is, the wheel is pulled out, rotated forward or backward according to a certain law, and when the rotation is in place, the tomb door will be opened." This mechanism may seem simple, but it is actually quite dangerous, as soon as you rotate the wrong square, it will activate the killing device, such as a crossbow, a sharp blade, a falling stone, a flap, ...... Therefore, only those who really know the password will dare to open this kind of mechanism, otherwise you won't even think about giving it a try. My father wasn't very good at opening the door, so it's safe to assume that they didn't open the door. ”

"So, there was a group of people who came in before your father and them, could it be the Whitefish Gang?" Xie Ke also interjected.

Fu Ying shook her head and said, "No." ”

"It's not the Whitefish Gang, it's John's gang, the leader of the 'scum'. Huang ran and shook his head.

"You are talking nonsense, you have forgotten that our chief, John, disappeared before they entered here?" said Charlie.

"It's not them, indeed. Fu Ying agreed with Charlie's statement.

"Now that the door of the tomb has been opened, it seems that there is no treasure in it. The smug color on Huang Ranran's face suddenly turned to frustration.

As they spoke, they had already walked through the doorβ€”and it was still a mess, even empty.

It can be seen that this burial chamber is about 100 square meters, and in addition to a few stone figures on the ground, there are several huge pits, and the edge of the pit is dug out of the soil, which is about half a meter high, and the pit is also about 30 or 40 centimeters deep.

However, there was nothing in the pit, not to mention gold, silver and jewelry, not even a clay pot and a clay bowl, only a strong smell of decay.

"These are burial pits?" Yang Hao's eyes looked at those pits, but his words were asked to Fu Ying. This answer can only be answered by Fu Ying.

Fu Ying nodded and said, "Yes." ”

"The burial pit, as the name suggests, is for the burial items?" Heng Qi also interjected.

"Not bad. Fu Ying replied.

"It's a pity that these pits are empty, it seems that the treasure has been dug up a long time ago......" Huang Ran ran was depressed. He hadn't smiled since he stepped into the tomb.

Heng Qi suddenly wanted to make a joke with Huang Ranran, so he deliberately pointed to the third pit on the left and said: "Huang Ranran, there doesn't seem to be anything in that pit, you go and look through it to see what's there." ”

Although Huang Ran ran was stupid, he was not fooled, and tilted his head vigilantly at the moment: "Really?"

"Of course it's true, do you see if there's a small mound of dirt?" Heng Qi casually pointed into the pit, and at the same time deliberately winked at Xie Ke. Xie Ke smelled like him, so he naturally understood what he meant, and nodded at the moment: "That's right." ”

At this time, Yang Hao and Fu Ying were attracted by a painted painting on the right wall and were studying the things on the painted object, while Charlie was standing on the side, so they didn't notice what Heng Qi, Xie Ke, and Huang Ran were doing.

But Huang Ran plucked up the courage to look into the third dirt pit on the left - under the light of the flashlight, he saw a raised mound in the center of the bottom of the pit. His heart moved, and he suddenly became angry: "Could it be that there is really a treasure buried here?"

"Take this and dig it up!" Heng Qi "kindly" threw him a folding shovel. Huang ran to take the shovel, hesitated for a long time, greed finally overcame fear, and immediately jumped down, ran to the mound, and swiped the shovel to the mound......

"What is this?" Yang Hao asked Fu Ying, pointing to the painting.

Fu Ying looked at the painting seriously, and was not in a hurry to answer Yang Hao's question. After a while, she replied: "This should be a southern style painting, mainly with red paint, depicting the scene of the era when the tomb was built, nothing more than farming, hunting, fishing, sacrifices, and so on...... Huh? No, why is there a piece missing here?"

"Where is a piece missing?" Yang Hao wondered.

Fu Ying shone the aperture of the flashlight towards that place, and Yang Hao looked at it, only to see that a piece the size of a palm was really missing there.

"Is it natural erosion?"

"No, it was artificially stripped off! Apparently there is some secret here, which was stripped off with a sharp weapon by the first person who entered here!"

"What could be the secret?"

"I don't know. Fu Ying replied honestly. Although she followed her father to rob the tomb a few times, she really knew very little about the tomb robbery.

Besides, Huang Ran ran is shoveling that mound of dirt at the moment. But he was really a layman in this work, and he didn't know how to shovel gently, tentatively, and carefully pick up the dirt with his hands if he touched a hard object. If there really was any treasure down here, it was estimated that he would have been smashed into scum by him for such a while!

"Pooh!" Suddenly his shovel hit a hard object, and his hand was shaken so hard that not only did the two tigers' mouths numb, but even the shovel almost flew out of his hand.

Huang Ran ran was about to scold his mother, but his eyes suddenly saw a white thing appear in the soil, and he suddenly felt a burst of ecstasy in his heart, shouting: "Baby!

He shouted, throwing away the shovel and pulling the "baby" out of the dirt.

However, when he held it up to his eyes, he was startled and threw it back into the pit as if electrocuted.

"Huang Ranran, what did you throw away? That's a baby!" Heng Qi shouted.

"Fart baby, a dead man's head, scared my old Huang a lot!"

"Haha......" Heng Qi and Xie Ke laughed wildly.

"The dead rabbit (head) and the wild (also) may be cultural relics!" Charlie said in a suddenly changed tone in Chinese.

"That's right, Huang Ranran, what you threw away may be a baby, go pick it up!" Heng Qi also smiled.

"Is it really an artifact?" Huang Pao stared suspiciously at the dead man's head lying in the dirt pit - it was supposed to be a skeleton, and the shape of the entire skull was still there, and nothing was missing. Its two huge eye sockets stared blankly at everyone, and the two rows of Bai Sensen's tooth bones were also hideously exposed, and if you stared at it for a long time, you would even have a feeling that its teeth and bones were moving up and down.

Skulls are a taboo thing, and even seeing them in broad daylight can make people feel uneasy, let alone in this gloomy tomb?

Huang Ran ran was naturally afraid of this thing, so the fear in his heart was naturally a little heavier than others. He stared at the dead man's head, not knowing what to do.

"Hurry up and pick it up, that's the cultural relics!" Xie Ke also urged.

"Yes, this skull must be a cultural relic, just like the fossilized skull of the Peking Man, how much will it cost to sell for this outside!" Huang Ranran thought about this, a wave of blood surged on his forehead, and he immediately jumped into the dirt pit again, intending to pick up the skull.

"Don't pick it up!" Fu Ying suddenly shouted.

Huang Ranran and Heng Qi made such a big move, which naturally attracted the eyes of Fu Ying and Yang Hao. And when Fu Ying saw that Huang ran to pick up the skull, she hurriedly stopped it.

Not only Huang ran ran, but even Heng Qi and Xie Ke felt a thick chill rise up their backs!

Could it be that this skull has some evil name?
