Coming down from the top, the space below is very large. Not only me, but also the Yao brothers, sisters, and Sun brothers were stunned.
It was very dark, so I used a flashlight to look around.
The surrounding area is very empty and surrounded by stone walls. This underground space must have been artificially constructed.
It was difficult to see clearly in the dark, and the lighting range of the flashlight was limited. Sun Laosan, who was walking in front, noticed it first. He suddenly asked us to stop and said that there were dead bones on the ground in front of us.
It is not surprising that there are bones of dead people in the tombs. What is strange is that these white bones scattered on the ground do not look like they are very old, because they are still very white, and at a glance, there are leg bones, hand bones, and finger bones.
But only the skull was missing.
Sister Yu was very brave. She knelt down and looked at it and said, "A few months to half a year is not a long time."
I also found an empty Nongfu Spring bottle on the ground nearby.
Although there are many doubts, such as no human skull, no clothes, etc.
But at that time, several people whispered among themselves and made a summary. Everyone temporarily agreed with Sun Laosan's idea. This was what he had guessed.
On the night when we first entered the pit, we found a hole blasted by a detonator on the ceiling of the tomb passage. At first, we thought our trip was in vain. This was because a group of local tomb robbers from the south had arrived first and stole all the funerary objects below.
.
The result was just the opposite. We found modern towels and traces of other people coming down, but the Xi'er Room was still rich in burial objects. We filled seven or eight large sacks. At that time, the second brother said that the southern rats had become vegetarians and gave them to us.
You left so much fat out of kindness.
Now when we go down here and see the Nongfu Spring bottle and these bones, we guess that this must be related to the group of tomb robbers a few months ago.
We don't know how they died or how they got here. The only reasonable explanation is that they were playing tricks on each other.
At this time, Yao Yumen took out a compass from her bag, and she began to squat down and play with the compass.
"Sister Yu, what is this?" I asked because I didn't understand.
"Boy, don't ask random questions. Don't distract my sister now. There are still many things you don't know." His brother Yao Wence gave me a cold look.
There are two long needles and one short needle on the compass. Strangely enough, no one touches the compass, but the short needle keeps shaking by itself.
"Over there..." Yao Yumen stood up and pointed to the northwest.
I didn’t understand it at the time, but now that I have been in the industry for a long time, I can tell you that that kind of compass is specially made, and the short needle is made of a material called Tiantie. Tiantie is what the ancients called it. This kind of thing was actually used in the past.
Yes, now people call them meteorites.
This kind of compass is used exclusively by the descendants of the Futou sect in the south who look at the afterlife and choose the cemetery. They look at the mountains to see the improvement, and they use the silver needle to break the position. This involves complicated knowledge of Feng Shui and magnetic fields, which I can't explain clearly in a sentence or two.
Several people followed Yao Yumen to the northwest. Along the way, I saw several stone oil lampstands. I secretly guessed that thousands of years ago, there should be bright lights below.
After walking for more than ten minutes, we were blocked by a large stone gate.
There are many patterns and words carved on the surface of the stone gate, which are so densely packed that most of them are incomprehensible. It seems that the culture carved on the stone gate is from another world.
There are four characters in the middle of the stone gate. They are not the nine-fold seal script above, but should be the bird seal script. It is more conspicuous.
"Do you know bird seal script?" Seeing Yao Yumen staring blankly at the big stone gate, Boss Sun asked casually.
It took a while before she came back to her senses, and she nodded with a pale face.
"That's it... we can't go any further." She said in a lonely tone.
Boss Sun frowned and said, "What do you mean, you plan to quit?"
Yao Yumen nodded with a pale face.
"This level... has surpassed the Mawangdui Han Tomb. Those four characters are... Mustard Seed Palace."
"Behind this stone door are several tons of tapstone. It's impossible for just a few of us to open it from the outside."
"You accidentally discovered something incredible. This, this is... a national-level underground palace."
