From this point of view, as long as the female camel smells the blood of the baby camel, even if it is a hundred miles away, she has to go over to see if she can save her cubs, relying on the parent-child nature of the animal, but these irrelevant camels, once they smell the blood of the same kind, will only slowly move away from the destination.

In the eyes of these camels, when they smell the blood of their own kind, they will think that some places are dangerous, and they may be dozens of miles away, and they have become restless, which is different from the mother camel looking for the calf, and we do not know if he can smell the blood of the same kind 2,000 years ago.

"But at least you're doing it right, and you can really use camels to lead the way."

Song Siyuan nodded: "Okay, then tomorrow please take the camel to the snow mountain with us, maybe on the way you can let the camel smell other smells, even if it is not the blood of the same kind, if it is the blood of other animals, at least it proves that those frozen soil in the previous historical period, a large number of sacrificial blood, and the tombs we are looking for may also have something to do with it." ”

One night later, the next morning.

Yue Guanchao and they took John Hua and began to go straight to the snow mountain along the lake, along the way they always paid attention to the state of the old camel, the old camel was always calm and relaxed, there were no mood fluctuations, until it was close to the highest snow mountain, the old camel became restless.

Keli noticed the situation of the old camel, touched the old camel's head and looked at everyone: "He seems to have smelled some special smell, we will follow him to the snowy mountain." ”

With that, he took Nayi on the camel, and began to sniff the old camel and run forward, and John Hua drove the car to follow the old camel closely. It wasn't until we were completely close to the foot of the snow-capped mountain that we came to a gentle slope before we stopped completely.

When they arrived here, the old camel finally stopped, and began to kick its hooves in place, obviously unwilling to go any further, Keli They got off the camel and motioned to everyone and said: "It should be here, he is unwilling to go forward because the taste is gone, and the taste is likely to appear here." ”

Although John Hua didn't really believe that camels could really smell thousands of years ago, since he stayed here, there must be something here, and he looked at the people around him, and these helpers took down the drilling rig tools, and circled a piece of permafrost about a few hundred square meters along the place where the camels walked around.

Later, several people began to chisel through the frozen soil along the area, because the frozen soil is very hard, much harder than this kind of soil, and the texture is a bit close to the cement that has been completely solidified, and the process of chiseling is extremely difficult. But fortunately, the drilling rig is much better than manpower, and the entire surface permafrost of the entire area is drilled and cleaned elsewhere in about a morning.

After the surface permafrost has been cleared, the black soil can already be seen below, and the bones of many small animals can be clearly seen in this soil.

Keli stepped forward and pieced together the bones scattered in the black mud, and in a moment the skeleton had been pieced together, judging from the shape of the bones, it should be a small camel.

Seeing this scene, Keli nodded at them: "It seems that the place where this old camel took us to find is right, it is indeed the burial place of some baby camels, and the family of Jieli Khan should have killed the baby camel and buried the bones here in order to mark the location of his mausoleum, so that the blood of the baby camel can be used to attract the mother camel, so as to determine the location of the mausoleum." ”

"In the past thousands of years, in order to worship Jieli Khan, they are afraid that they have killed a lot of baby camels, which left a lot of bones of baby camels, looking at the degree of corrosion of the bones, no one has worshiped him for hundreds of years, which shows that his descendants are now estimated to have completely disappeared or perished."

Judging from this, it proves that they have found the right place, and John Hua also understands that the entrance to the tomb must be here, and he took these thugs to continue to dig down, and when he dug twenty meters below the soil layer, stone bricks finally appeared.

They began to dig where the bricks appeared, and soon found a doorway in the soil with a brick trail leading the way.

This doorway is built with heavy rocks on the left and right sides to form a rectangular tomb structure, and at the same time, a round vault is made of masonry at the top of the doorway to form a tomb door structure with a square dome and a square door.

The door of this tomb is about two meters high, and the width is about two meters, the round vault is full of bricks and stones, carved out the pattern of cattle and sheep and wooden horses galloping on the grassland, on both sides of the door hole, there are two stone pillars in relief, there is a pattern of eagle spreading its wings, the carving is very fine, but because it has been under the frozen soil for a long time, it has been corroded off the color, and the skin is mottled and falls off a piece of flowers.

Look at the door panel again, you can see that the two door panels are tightly sealed, and a square blanket is woven with wolf skin, just enough to cover the entire door panel, I don't know what is used to glue it very strongly, after being dug out, a lot of dust is stuck to the wolf hair, so as not to be a little dirty.

"What does this mean? Why is wolf skin glued to the door panels? Yue Guanchao didn't understand the truth.

Sun Daqiao explained: "This is the nomadic people's custom of closing the tomb door, the things glued to the door are several wolf skins stitched together, generally the old wolves, these wolves have a heavy body odor, the fur is tough, as long as they appear in the grassland, other animals must flee from the wind, after peeling off the skin of these old wolves, dried to make a wolf skin blanket, with animal bone marrow boiled glue to the wooden door, once glued it is difficult to follow." ”

Doing so is not only a sense of ritual, but also has many practical effects.

The skin of the old wolf is sealed to the door, which can prevent the snakes, insects, rats and ants living in the mud from approaching the wooden door and destroying the wooden door, and can also play a protective role in the wooden door, the wolf skin has always been known for keeping warm, and the wooden door that is stuck to the wolf skin is not easy to be frozen and cracked by the frozen rock formation, and the wolf skin can also seal all the breath in the wooden door, preventing the exchange of breath inside and outside the tomb, and delaying the corrosion of the corpse.

However, it is precisely because there is a wolf skin to block the tomb, the gas after the corpse is decomposed will also be blocked in the tomb and difficult to discharge, if people who do not understand the situation uncover the wolf skin and enter the tomb, it is likely to be poisoned by these poisonous gases, this situation can be regarded as a disadvantage for the tomb robbers.

"The old gentleman is so knowledgeable."

John Hua originally wanted the thugs to open the tomb, but after listening to the old man's introduction, he kept an eye on it, and after evacuating everyone, he let the thugs wear gas masks to uncover the wolf's skin, and then used the door knocking device to directly knock the tomb door open, and the many gases produced began to disperse outward after the tomb was broken.

They could clearly feel a translucent gas that looked like blue but not black, drifting outward, and finally dissipating into the air, until the gas gradually became transparent and dissipated like smoke, and the gas was completely dispersed.

John Hua wore a gas mask, picked up a candle and walked into the tomb, gradually lit it in the tomb, and when the candle flame returned to stability, it means that the poisonous gas in the tomb has been completely dispersed.

Then he motioned to the thugs, picked up the flashlight and continued to walk towards the tomb, walking about 300 meters before reaching the end.

John Hua stood on the ground and roughly estimated the distance, from the porch of the tomb to the entrance of the tomb, there was a distance of at least three hundred meters, just crossing the entire slope to the foot of the snow-capped mountain.

John Hua picked up the telescope and explained: "From their observations, the tomb road is inclined downward, and the tomb of Jieli Khan should be in the cavity of the mountain. ”

At this point, they were already about to enter the tomb, Yue Guanchao and they were able to bring everyone with them for safety, and the group turned on the flashlight with gas masks, walked into the tomb, and came to the end to open the door of the tomb.
