Chapter 141: Terracotta Warriors and Horses Resurrected
I threw my backpack on the ground and said, "The more palatial the palace, the more shameless the sin." "But as soon as I finished speaking, I suddenly smelled a pungent smell.
Seeing that I wrinkled my nose, Chen Yina said, "What does this smell like?" ā
"Oh no, it's mercury." I was shocked and suddenly felt bad.
Sima Qian has long said that there is a large amount of mercury in the tomb of the Qin Emperor, and mercury is used as a river.
So, I stood up and looked at those things carefully, turned my head to Chen Yina and Wu Honghong and said, "You two must hold your breath, try not to breathe if you can, and stand here and don't move." ā
In front of us, there is indeed a river channel about two meters wide, although it is not as wide as the river channel in nature, but to build a river underground with limited space is both a luxury and a status. What's more, mercury flows in the river.
I took an empty water bottle from my backpack and threw it towards the place where the mercury was flowing, only to hear a snap and the water bottle fell in the middle of the mercury.
I continued to stare at the slowly sinking kettle, a little dazed, "Such a large amount of mercury, if it evaporates and is inhaled, even if there is a chance to obtain the treasure, it will not be able to take it out." ā
I couldn't help but laugh when I thought of this, a group of poor people, who have not yet found the real treasure, are going to die here for this treasure that they don't know.
"Thankfully, we have gas masks." I took out the gas mask from my backpack and put it on, although the gas mask had limited protection against mercury vapor, it at least protected us from crossing the river safely.
However, after crossing the river, I looked at the buildings in front of me and always felt that something was wrong in my heart, the doors and windows here were very well preserved, and there was no dust on them, as if someone was cleaning them every day.
Finally, after walking through the complex for more than ten minutes, we walked in front of the city gate opposite. Glancing at the tall city gate, I turned to Chen Yina and asked, "Do you think that the arrangement and location of these buildings resembles a certain place?" ā
"I found out too, but I couldn't remember it for a while." Chen Yina replied.
As I stood in front of the gate, I glanced back, and then at the gate in front of me, and saw that there was a chain beside the gate. I said to Chen Yina and Wu Honghong: "You two cover me up, I'll climb up and take a closer look." The two nodded.
I put my backpack on the ground, armed only with a dagger and pistol, grabbed the chains and began to climb up.
Climbing to the highest point, I shouted to Chen Yina below: "One more flare." As soon as my voice fell, I heard a "bang" below, and a ball of light flew out. Five seconds later, it exploded over the complex, and the instantaneous light once again exposed the entire complex to my eyelids.
This time, I saw it very clearly, the distance was very close, and looking at the tall and low buildings, my brain was still blank, but it was very familiar. Suddenly, I lost my voice and shouted, "Could this be the original appearance of the Xianyang Capital?" ā
"What did you say?" Chen Yina heard my voice below and asked in disbelief.
"Yes, that's right, this is the original appearance of the Xianyang Capital, but this is a shrunken version. It seems that this Zhao Ji is not thin on Yingzheng, and if he dies, he will send a Xianyang City to accompany him. ā
I slipped off my chains and said to the two of them, "Let's open the gates and see what's out there." After saying that, I began to push the huge gate hard, but I didn't push it for a long time.
The three of us looked at each other for a while, and Chen Yina stood up and drew the submachine gun from her back, aiming at the city gate and firing wildly. The bullet hit the wooden door, bringing down pieces of wood chips.
"Wait a minute, what are you listening to?" I stopped Chen Yina and motioned for them to listen carefully with their ears.
Chen Yina stopped shooting, looked at me, and asked, "What sound?" ā
"Shh I made a silent gesture to them, then turned my head and said, "It's getting closer, I'm not sure what it is, but it's definitely not good for us." ā
"So what do we do?" Wu Honghong looked at me and asked.
I looked up and saw the chain I had just climbed, and I looked up at it and saw that I could climb up the city wall through it. I pointed to the chain and said, "We can climb up the wall along this chain, and we'll figure it out when we get to the wall, and now we're going to move fast."
ā
After saying that, I was the first to grab the chain and start to climb up, because Wu Honghong was timid, so it was Wu Honghong who followed me, and the last Chen Yina.
I was the first to climb the top of the wall, and when I looked down, I saw that the things were very close. At this moment, Wu Honghong also climbed up, and I turned back to her and said, "Give me the flare gun." ā
Wu Honghong didn't speak, took out the flare gun from her backpack and handed it to me. Loading the flares and aiming them at the things that were already approaching, I pulled the trigger.
The flare exploded in the sky above the flares, and suddenly the flares were illuminated and they all screamed loudly, and the sound was very harsh.
Chen Yina glanced back at those things, her face changed significantly, and then she quickly climbed to the top of the city wall.
"Do you know what those things are?" Chen Yina's face had not yet recovered, so she asked me.
I nodded, looked back at the things that weren't moving in the bright light, and said, "These are ghost face cantharids, and if they catch them, they won't even find the bones." I smiled wryly.
"Is their weakness a fear of light?" Chen Yina continued to ask.
"They're only afraid of bright light, the kind of strong light with temperature." I replied with a solemn expression.
"That means they're scared of fire, right?" Wu Honghong suddenly interjected next to her.
I nodded, and Wu Honghong clapped his hands and said, "We still have a little solid fuel here, which can be made into some simple torches, so that we can block them." ā
"The question is, where do we go now to find the torches." I said to Wu Honghong, who was still excited.
The three of them fell silent, and the light of the flares began to fade, and the ghost-faced cantharids began to crawl towards us.
At this time, I suddenly heard a "click" sound from behind, and I immediately turned to Chen Yina and Wu Honghong and said, "Get down." ā
The moment I lay down, a black thing flew past my face with a strong gust of wind.
There were a few screams behind him, and then there was no movement.
"Are you two alright?" I didn't stand up yet, and I asked.
"I'm fine, but Sister Yina seems to be injured." This is Wu Honghong's voice.
I hurriedly stood up and walked over to Tatsu Yina's side, only to find a long, sharp thorn running through her shoulder.
I leaned down and just wanted to pull it out for her, but Chen Yina shook her head and said to me, "Leave me alone, you go first to see if there is a way out." ā
"But your wounds." I said a little worriedly.
Chen Yina shook her head and said, "I'm fine, the most important thing now is how we get out, I don't think it's safe here." ā
I nodded, and told Wu Honghong to take care of her, and I looked around the tomb, but I didn't find any way out.
After turning around, I returned to the original place, slowly sat on the ground, looked at Chen Yina and said, "There is no other way out here, only the stone door." With that, I pointed to the stone gate directly in front of me.
"But we don't have anything now, how can we pass through the stone gate?" Chen Yina said a little decadently.
"Don't worry, there's always a way for us to get out." After saying that, I stood up and came to the stone gate, and touched the material of the stone door with my hand.
Suddenly, it turned out that the stone door was actually glued together with sand and stone, which means that it was not very strong.
I excitedly returned to them, pointed to the stone door, and said, "This stone door is not very strong, we can get out of here." ā
"Really, that's great." Wu Honghong said happily.
"But where do we find tools?" Chen Yina asked weakly leaning against the wall.
Listening to Chen Yina's words, Wu Honghong immediately lost the excitement she had just now, like an eggplant that had been beaten by frost.
At this time, Wu Honghong called me and said, "We can use guns." ā
I thought for a moment, then nodded, picked up a submachine gun, and said to Chen Yina and Wu Honghong: "You guys dodge it, be careful that the bullet bounces back." ā
Wu Honghong listened to my words and picked up Chen Yina and walked to a safe corner.
I picked up the charge in my hand
When the gun was pointed at the stone gate, a shuttle of bullets came, and the surface of the stone gate was immediately opened. The stone chips flew one after another, but after a shuttle of bullets was fired, the stone gate did not appear as I expected, and it seemed that there was nothing wrong with it from a distance.
Then I threw another shuttle at the stone gate, and this time the stone gate moved, and began to fall down in large chunks.
I saw that there was a scene, and I hit all the bullets in the remaining guns on it, until the fourth bullet was finished, and the stone gate was completely shattered with a bang.
I ran to Chen Yina and Wu Honghong's side and helped Wu Honghong set up Chen Yina and walked towards the stone gate.
"Brother Lin Kun, look at it." Wu Honghong, who was walking in the front, suddenly stopped, turned back to us and said.
Beyond where Wu Honghong was standing, I walked to the front and looked forward, only to see an even larger palace appear in front of us.
Wu Honghong was about to walk forward, but I quickly stopped her. Wu Honghong turned her head and looked at me suspiciously, I pointed to the front with my finger and said, "Don't be in a hurry to go first, what do you see over there?" ā
Wu Honghong looked in the direction I was pointing, and when she saw the scene over there, the hairs on her body stood on end.
I saw that in front of the palace, I saw at first that the black things were not buildings or carvings, but terracotta warriors and horses, and the number was very large, there were thousands of people.
Wu Honghong glanced back at me and said, "Brother Lin Kun, it's fortunate that you stopped me, otherwise I'm afraid I would have to die." ā
I laughed a little and said, "That's all you get scared of, you're looking down there with us." With that, I pointed to my feet.
"What?" Although Wu Honghong had doubts in her heart, she still glanced down as I said, and after seeing the situation below, she gasped again.
Compared with the terracotta warriors and horses in the distance, the number of terracotta warriors and horses here has obviously increased a lot.
"It feels weird here, I'm afraid these terracotta warriors and horses will be weird, everyone must not touch them casually." I looked at the neatly arranged terracotta warriors and reminded me.
With that, I jumped down.
Then catch Chen Yina below, and then catch Wu Honghong.
Standing in front of the Terracotta Warriors, I felt a sigh in my heart, after thousands of years of time to this day, I finally met in this way.
Now that there was no time to go deeper, the three of us walked into the dark hole.
After walking for less than five minutes, the dark corridor came to an end. However, when I was about to walk out of the corridor, the hole at the end suddenly became brighter, and it was getting brighter and brighter.
After waiting for about half an hour, the light at the entrance of the cave slowly weakened, and after more than ten minutes, it completely went black again.
I thought it was just an accident, because nothing strange had happened after such a long time, and I was secretly glad that I was ready to move on.
Suddenly, there was a "click", and I looked back vigilantly.
"Oh no, these terracotta warriors are resurrected!"
Even if these things are all made of clay pottery, the number of thousands adds up, and we can drink a pot.
"Let's go!" I hurriedly urged Wu Honghong to take Chen Yina and leave quickly.
In an instant, countless terracotta warriors and horses poured into the front of the cave door like a tide.
In the face of the Stone Army, the submachine gun in my hand really became a burning stick, and after firing a shuttle of bullets, I didn't even have the time to change the magazine. When the terracotta warriors and horses blocked the entrance of the cave, I threw out a grenade and directly blew up the hole.
Just as the grenade exploded, several people suddenly burst out and rushed in before the rubble rolled down. I looked at it and saw that these people were none other than Hu Bing, Zhang Liqun, Zhao Zhen and others, as well as Hu Bing's subordinates.
"Let's go!"
However, when I ran to the front to round with Wu Honghong and Chen Yina, I was stunned by the sight.
"It'sā"
I saw a huge golden tree appear in front of me, and in the entire tomb, there was only one golden tree, and there was no exit around.
"It's spectacular."
"Now is not the time to sigh, if we want to get out of there, we have to climb to the top of the tree, otherwise we can only stay here for the tomb owner to be buried." I said.
