While walking, the fat man stopped again. I found that his searchlights were pointed at the rock wall next to him, and his eyes were so blank that he didn't know what he was looking at. "Is there any gold and silver treasure up there?" I made a joke to him.
.
The fat man looked back at me, but his brows furrowed. "Little prince, look at the stone wall. Is there something there?"
I felt strange, but I still looked over. After a quick glance, I found nothing, but I knew that the fat man would definitely not lie to me, so I calmed down and observed carefully. Slowly, I finally found that there were many gaps in the stone wall.
, a very small gap, the width of which may not even fit a finger.
I was instantly sure that these gaps were all man-made, because their widths were almost the same and they were arranged very regularly. The four gaps were connected together to form a rectangle, which was more than two meters long and about the same width.
meters and above.
I was wondering what the reason for making so many gaps was, and then the fat man came over and said, "Little prince, you and I don't think that the rectangle inside is really like something."
"Well, it's very much like boxes." I answered subconsciously, and then suddenly thought of a possibility. I felt a chill in my heart and couldn't help but exclaimed: "Coffin? You mean the one inside?"
Like a coffin?"
The fat man nodded and said cautiously: "Yes, that's what I think, Lord Gua. Who would be able to make those gaps without any trouble? So, Lord Gua, I think it's very likely that there's a coffin inside, and the one in front of us is very likely to be a coffin."
'Coffin Mountain'."
"Coffin Mountain?" I took a breath of cold air. There were countless cracks on the stone wall throughout the year. If all the coffins inside were coffins, then this mountain could really be called "Coffin Mountain"
.
The old lame man also came over, pointed to the stone wall and said: "You are right. In fact, I have discovered this a long time ago, but I have never been sure. When I saw the statue just now, I was sure that there were countless hidden things on it.
The coffin. Judging from their precise matching points and the same color, I suspect that the stones used in the coffin inside were all taken from this stone wall. This is truly a coffin that has never been seen before or since.
Mountain'."
"Isn't it possible? It's not that easy to take out a square stone from a stone wall, right? Even now, I'm afraid it's not that easy." The fat man raised a question. In fact, I think so too, people can easily
It's easy to make a square on it, but it's not that simple to make it completely.
"Forget it, let's not talk about this anymore. Let's go. As long as they don't provoke us, it doesn't matter how they do it!"
Further forward, the stone sculptures suddenly became denser. Originally they were twenty meters apart, but in the end they were only a few meters apart. This gave us a hint that we might be close to the core of this place.
Sure enough, a few minutes later, we saw a huge square cave entrance on the other side of the stone wall. It was ten meters high and wide. There was originally a few meters between the two mountain walls, but there was a chain here.
The bridge leads directly to the entrance of the cave.
The four of them were all a little excited. This time, they got it wrong. Not only did they not die after falling from the suspension bridge at a high place, they found this important place. This was something no one expected.
We couldn't wait to climb up the chains. There were originally wooden boards on them, but they had rotted away after a long period of corrosion. But these chains were very strong, and the distance between the two sides was only a few meters, so it was not a problem for us to get over.
A few minutes later, we arrived at the opposite side. The entrance to the cave was very regular and very deep inside. There was a huge light stand on each side, but the fuel had long been exhausted.
We walked in side by side, and soon discovered that the two sides of the cave were also filled with sarcophagi. They seemed to be of a higher standard than those outside. Not only were they larger, they also had some precise patterns carved on them.
Suddenly, we saw a messy scene. For a long distance, the sarcophagi on the stone wall had been taken out, the lids of the coffins were all opened, and the dead bones were scattered all over the ground. Some of them were completely corrupted.
It turned into a pile of powder, some of which remained intact.
The four of them looked at each other, how could this happen? We went up to check it out and quickly came to several conclusions.
These sarcophagi were destroyed by later generations, because we found two corpses next to one coffin, and they died only a few decades ago. These destroyed sarcophagi must be related to them.
It seems that these outsiders are looking for something, because some coffins still contain some funerary objects, including small bronze items, and they are very well preserved. However, they did not move at all, which means they are looking for something.
The goal is very clear, these burial objects are not what they want.
"What do you think they are looking for?"
"Looking at the items left behind, if you compare them, it should be a more precious thing, and it may have some special purpose."
"Then you said they found it?"
"It looks like we should have found it."
"Why are you so sure?"
I smiled, walked up to a modern human skeleton, and pointed to the clothes on his body. There was a small broken hole on the back of the corpse, which looked like it should have been punctured by a sharp weapon. "This man
He should have been killed by someone. There is a saying that goes, "The bird is gone and the bow is hidden." Since the goal has been achieved, those unimportant people are of no use value. In order to keep the secret, killing and silence is the cleanest way.
"
"Damn, that's so cruel!" The fat man sighed.
Indeed, for some people, other people's lives are dispensable. When they are needed, they are lured with benefits, and when they are not, they are thrown away like garbage.
I recalled one thing in my mind. The death time of these modern human bones was about fifty years, which is very consistent with the time when the old man entered this place. The old man once said that he met another group of people here, those
The people's words were flashing, and they seemed to have some other purpose. He had guessed this at the time, but he couldn't be sure and didn't know what their purpose was.
Now from these corpses, it is confirmed that they are a group of people with ulterior motives, but the same question is what their purpose is to get from here.
At this time, Xiao Wu suddenly bent down to pick up a piece of bronze from one of the sarcophagi. I saw it just now. It was something like a key, flat in shape, with some patina on it.
