Chapter 14 The front hall of the ancient tomb, don't look back
Kite Nineteen silently repeated the two objects that appeared in the system prompt in his heart.
"Look back at the mirror, return to the gossip mirror."
It seems that he will meet this mirror next.
Immediately, Kite Nineteen felt a sinking in his backpack, and a heavy object appeared in his backpack out of thin air.
Kite Nineteen is clear, this is the unified gossip mirror that the system just talked about.
On the one hand, because of Jiang Tianming's words just now, several people who were hostile to Kite Nineteen and wanted to attack Kite Nineteen as tomb robbers did not dare to speak anymore.
The team had returned to its previous calm state, and the attention of the group had returned to the archaeology itself.
Jiang Yiyi looked at the two beast heads that had just appeared and the two knockers in the mouth of the beast head, frowned slightly, and said:
"These two beast heads, are they dragons?"
"Why is the knocker in the mouth different?"
Jiang Tianming also took a deep breath and said, "Such a beast head knocker is indeed rare. ”
"Generally, the head of the beast with the knocker is a more concrete beast, either symbolizing power or symbolizing auspiciousness, but it is indeed rare to make people shudder."
Yuan Xingxing pushed his glasses on the side.
He is recognized as a top student at the University of Archaeology and is the number one research player.
It had always been a physical problem, and it was not his turn to express himself at all.
Now that it's time to show IQ, Yuan Xingxing naturally stands up.
He looked at the two tomb doors and said:
"This beast head is obviously the Jiaolong that Yiyi said."
"And these two knockers are made of gold and jade, respectively."
"Isn't there such a saying in our Great Xia Kingdom, golden jade good fate, golden branches and jade leaves, usually symbolizing preciousness and beauty."
"Therefore, this shows that the owner of the tomb must have a lot of wealth to save money, but his identity does not allow him to use the dragon totem, so he uses such a dragon totem."
"So I guess that the owner of this tomb is either a minister in a high position, or a rich and powerful man."
"The expression of this beast head is so fierce, it is also to deter outsiders, there must be a lot of wealth in the tomb."
The head of Yuan Xingxing's analysis was the Tao, and everyone couldn't help but be a little convinced, and felt that there was no other explanation.
Even Jiang Yiyi couldn't help but look at him twice.
Yuan Xingxing looked at Kite Nineteen complacently and said:
"In the ancient tomb, not only do we have to rely on brute force, but we also need to use our brains."
However, Kite Nineteen looked at him coldly and said:
"It's not a dragon."
Yuan Xingxing's pupils shrank, and then he laughed again, and said:
"Kite Nineteen, are you crazy? This is the head of the dragon beast certified by Professor Jiang! Then you say, what is this! ”
For a moment, everyone looked at Kite Nineteen.
Kite Nineteen glanced at the beast's head lightly and said, "This is a snake, or rather, a giant python." ”
"I think it has something to do with the identity of the owner of the tomb."
After speaking, he looked at Jiang Tianming: "Professor Jiang, there is too much time wasted here, let's go in." ”
Jiang Tianming was suddenly looked at like this, and he couldn't help but "chuckle" in his heart.
As if he was involuntarily obeying orders, Jiang Tianming nodded subconsciously and said, "Okay." Get in. ”
Yuan Xingxing laughed contemptuously, and stood at the front of the team proudly, already waiting in his heart to see Kite Nineteen make a fool of himself.
Wang Qiang called out the two bodyguards of the Black Bear and the White Tiger who had failed to open the door before, "Now that you have the door knocker, you two can't open it anymore." ”
The two men replied loudly, "Yes! ”
Then, a man stood aside and pulled the knocker. The stone door, which couldn't be opened just now, was opened very easily.
Everyone took a deep breath and watched nervously and expectantly as the gap in the stone gate slowly enlarged in front of them.
As the door of the tomb opened, the warm yellow light of the fire leaked out from the tomb.
Everyone walked into the tomb one after another, and when they saw the decoration of the tomb, everyone couldn't help but take a deep breath.
The entire burial chamber is very large, the size of a football field.
On the walls around the tomb, there are three layers of light troughs, and the orange flames dance in the light troughs, illuminating the entire tomb with bright lights.
On the wall directly in front of the burial chamber, the corpses of three adult-sized mermaids were hung in chains, the upper body of which was a dried corpse in the shape of a human, and the lower half of which was a dehydrated and shriveled fishtail.
The bodies of the three mermaids are connected to the three layers of light troughs on the surrounding walls. Above the heads of the three mermen, a bright flame also burned.
At the back half of the burial chamber, rows of stone figurines with weapons in their hands stood, staring straight ahead, as if they could attack at any moment.
In the center of this burial chamber, there is a sacrificial platform more than three meters long, on which an incense burner comes out, and there is nothing left.
Behind the altar, there are three coffins of different materials, namely bronze, green jade, and gold.
And directly above the sacrificial altar, which they can't ignore the most, there is a carving of a powerful ghost holding a mirror!
The stone sculpture of the demon was painted blue-green as a whole, but the bulging eyes and hair were painted vermilion with cinnabar, and the fangs were blue-white.
There was an eerie smile on the face of the ghost carving.
However, the most chilling thing is that in the arms of the ghost, holding a huge bronze mirror.
The bronze mirror was more than a man tall, carved by a powerful ghost and held in his arms, looking down at everything in the tomb at an angle of thirty degrees.
The blurred mirror reflects everything in front of the tomb.
After seeing this mirror, everyone couldn't help but gasp.
Jiang Yiyi frowned slightly, looked at the petitioning bronze mirror with some disgust, and said:
"Why hang a mirror here?"
"And it's a frame like this."
At this time, Yuan Xingxing immediately stepped forward and said:
"There are clouds in ancient poems, and the high hall mirror is sad and white-haired, which is talking about the mirror hanging on the main hall, and you can see yourself when you go in and out."
"The mirror of the high hall means that people should wake up themselves all the time and be upright."
"We are now in the front hall of the ancient tomb, which is equivalent to the main hall."
"So I think the intention of the owner of this tomb to put this mirror here is to warn his descendants, as well as the people who come to this ancient tomb, to be upright."
Jiang Yiyi glanced at Yuan Xingxing suspiciously, and felt that what he said sounded reasonable.
Even Jiang Tianming nodded meaningfully and said:
"Gao Tang Mingjing, there is indeed such a saying."
"However, whether this mirror is hanging here or not is still open to debate, and we can't make conclusions so casually."
"Impulsiveness, it's dangerous to be inside the tomb."
At this time, Kite Nineteen looked up at the vague reflection of the entire archaeological team in the bronze mirror, and couldn't help frowning slightly.
At this point, he had already guessed that this was what the system had just said
- Looking back!
