Chapter 76: The Tragic Death of the Tomb Repairer

Looking at the sharp and strange bones here, one feels as if one is in a gloomy forest of bones.

Chen Ke retreated in his heart:

"I said, let's go back and try the road on the right. This one is really too dangerous."

Song Qian and Eggplant also agreed, but Ji Han took out his flying claw again.

Chen Ke thought Ji Han wanted to try again, so he advised:

"Brother Han, there's no need to try. Even if you hook yourself behind the bones, you won't be able to get through."

Ji Han did not answer, but aimed his flying claws at the dead bones that were penetrated by huge white bones.

The flying claws shot out, and sure enough, they caught the withered bones and the rags wrapped in them.

With a sudden movement, the clothes bag holding the dead bones flew over.

Only then did everyone realize that Ji Han didn't want to use his flying claws to get over, but wanted to see if the deceased had left anything behind.

"Chen Ke, what era do these clothes seem to be from?"

Chen Ke carefully looked at the clothes that were falling apart on the ground and said:

"It looks like clothing from the Song Dynasty. It's so well preserved. It's not rotten."

Ji Han took out the dead bones and put them aside, then checked his clothes and bags to see if there were any clues left behind.

At this time, a piece of rag fell out. After opening it, I found that there were many words written on it.

Ji Han wanted to read it using the quantum wave reading method, but the game interface popped up.

[The last number of automatic translations has been used up. Because the text is far away, you need to order an additional reading translation package]

[Price: 5,000 yuan per month]

Damn it, if you want to show off your face, you will spend money on everything you do.

At that time, the Chinese teacher said that if you study hard to translate ancient Chinese, you will be able to use it in the future. It turned out to be true. If you had studied hard at the beginning, you might be able to save a lot of money today.

I don’t believe it anymore. Without a rotten egg like you, I wouldn’t be able to make cakes?

"Chen Ke, look what's written on it."

"Damn it, this is a bit out of line, let me take a look."

The writing on the rag was of different shades and sizes. It definitely didn't look like it was written with a brush, but more like it was written with small pieces of black coal.

None of us have done much research in this area, so we can only help follow it.

It took Chen Ke a long time to understand what this dead buddy meant.

Like many people, he was a prisoner captured by the Liao soldiers, and a mausoleum was built here for a certain Liao general. Knowing a little Khitan, he knew that these people would be killed and buried after the construction of the mausoleum was completed.

, so he and his two brothers hid in the tomb passage in advance and escaped.

Hundreds of prisoners outside were slaughtered and piled on top of the tomb, with so much blood that it even seeped into the tomb.

They hid in the tomb passage for three days, hoping to wait for the people outside to disperse before they could escape back to their hometown.

But my companion said that he would go in and rob the tomb and take some valuable things back.

I think this mausoleum is too weird. Many people accidentally died during the reconstruction. Moreover, I feel that what everyone rebuilt according to the requirements does not look like a mausoleum at all, so I disagree.

But I couldn't win over the two of them, because they helped build the tomb passage, so they knew this place very well. Besides, if I didn't go, they were afraid that I would go back and report them for stealing the tomb and digging the tomb, so we had to go in together.

I also left a letter to prove that I didn't really want to dig up the grave, but that the situation was special and I had to follow it.

When Chen Ke explained the general content of the letter, several people found it a bit strange.

Eggplant cursed:

"Damn it, it's really an ancient tomb. Chen Ke, you're a good boy. You got it right. It really is an ancient tomb from the Liao Dynasty."

Chen Ke made a gesture worthy of me and said:

"Well, you thought I was just reading a tomb-robbing novel, but the owner of this tomb is really fucked up. He actually killed so many prisoners. No wonder the world is like this."

Song Qian frowned:

"You just said that the owner of this letter and his party are from a converted cemetery?"

Chen Ke nodded and said:

"Yes, it's clearly written here. There was already a cemetery here when they came, and they just renovated it as required."

Ji Han added:

"That is to say, before the tomb of General Daliao was built, there was already another cemetery here. Is this guy from Daliao a magpie's nest?"

Everyone just heard about the situation and did not pay attention to the word "reconstruction". But when Ji Han reminded them, they immediately realized that something was wrong.

Chen Ke reconsidered:

"Yes, they have so many prisoners. It's not easy to build a cemetery wherever they go. Why do they want to seize other people's graveyards?"

At the same time, everyone thought of what they were looking for on this trip: the divine pillar.

Chen Ke was the quickest in speaking and answered himself:

"Unless they found that the original tomb here had merit, so they built the cemetery here."

Eggplant cursed:

"These landowners are really wicked and evil. They just took away people's cemeteries and killed so many people to bury them with them."

Things seemed to be gradually becoming clearer, but Ji Han still had a confused look on his face.

Chen Ke patted him and said:

"Brother Ji, what, is there any problem?"

"In addition to what Song Qian said, there are two other questions. First, the person said that they are not built like mausoleums, so what exactly are they building here?"

Everyone shook their heads when they heard this. After all, they had just come in not long ago. At least for now, the inside still looks like a tomb. Is there anything different behind it?

Seeing that no one answered, Ji Han knew that he could only find out this question if he kept going.

Then Ji Han looked at the bones scattered in the tomb passage and said:

"Second, since these people are so confident that they built the tomb passage here by themselves and it is foolproof, then how come they all died miserably here?"

Eggplant immediately followed Ji Han's thoughts and continued:

"It must be because something happened to the cemetery when they went in again."

Chen Ke was a little unbelievable and said:

"No, after the tomb was built, they hid in the tomb passage for three days. There was no record of what happened or changed during these three days."

Song Qian retorted:

"No, it's not like nothing happened. Prisoners have been being killed outside for the past three days."

"Ah? You mean to say that a mountain of prisoners were killed outside. In the process, what happened to this tomb?"

This seems to be the only possibility that fits the cause of death of these people and the content of the letter.

Eggplant asked:

"Then what should we do now? Can we still go this way?"

Ji Han shook his head and said:

"Go back, let's go to the right, but from now on, everyone must be 120% careful. The builders of these tombs are dead, and our situation is also very dangerous."

The four of them retreated through the tomb passage, but fortunately nothing happened on their way back.

After everyone reached the fork in the road, they walked to the tomb passage on the right.

This time we walked to the same location, and the tomb passage suddenly became much wider like the one on the left, but this time there were no sharp bones.

Instead, there were threads of uneven thickness hanging down from the top of the tomb passage.

Chen Ke said "Oh":

"I understand, this corresponds to the things on the surface of the mountain outside. There are bones on the left, so there are also bones in the tomb passage, and there are woods on the right, so here are the tree roots hanging down from above."
