Just as Nicholas returned to the elevator, a bronze door slammed down, locking the two people tightly in the enclosed space. Then a mechanical sound sounded, and the elevator slowly descended.
"What do you think we should do if we are trapped in here?"
"I will sew your crow's beak shut beforehand."
However, this mechanical elevator seems to be a little too slow, and the descent speed is not fast.
Nicholas and Zhang Long calculated that when it had dropped halfway to the height they climbed up, the elevator had stopped, and then the bronze door opened.
"Why does it feel like this broken elevator doesn't go all the way down?"
Nicholas complained as he walked out of the elevator, looked around to see if there was any danger, and then said hello to Zhang Long.
When Zhang Long saw Nicholas' gesture, he followed him out of the elevator.
This is still a passage carved out of the mountain.
But what is different from other places is that there is also a thick blanket under your feet, so you can't make any sound when walking on it.
"This place looks interesting. I wouldn't be surprised if the king and queen lived here."
"Probably not, but what exactly it looks like requires further exploration."
Zhang Long also found that the signs of civilization here were completely different from the civilized power of the king and queen seen in the reliefs.
Generally speaking, the king's power is still relatively backward.
Moreover, the place where Nicholas and Zhang Long set foot is very similar to the modern style, and the difference between the two is still very big.
This passage is not long. After walking a few steps, Nicholas and Zhang Long saw two huge wooden doors.
Nicholas and Zhang Long pushed the wooden door open at the same time.
Although it had been a long time, a lot of dust naturally came out after pushing the wooden door open, which made the two people cough, but nothing else weird happened.
Zhang Long also walked in first with a tactical flashlight. To his surprise, the room inside was not big.
When I just entered the place, I saw a desk, right opposite the door. The piece of skin pressed under the desk was a very ferocious tiger, and its head was also made into a specimen.
It is placed under the desk. From a distance, it looks like a tiger.
He was lying at the feet of a person who was writing furiously at the desk.
"What the hell is this place? It's really making me wonder more and more."
Zhang Long walked over and saw two rows of bookshelves on both sides of the desk, filled with various books, but when Zhang Long went over to pick up one.
It has been found that the book is so infested with insects that it is almost unreadable. There are many holes on one page and several words are missing.
If these books were novels, a few missing words would not be a problem, but the key point is that these books seem to be very skillfully compiled teaching books.
Zhang Long could already tell from the pictures in these books that this place is no longer in the primitive state of ancient times, so there is no doubt that the people who built this platform and found a secret room here, the queen and the king, are completely
Not a stranger.
Zhang Ziran also knew that the fish-headed man was a later visitor, and he also came to this conclusion from the six-sided relief on the metal box.
"Do you think it's possible that those lowly fish-headed people don't even know that such a place exists?"
"I don't know, don't ask me such complicated questions."
Zhang Long was also very interested and flipped through all the books on the bookshelf one by one.
Nicholas Dao is also doing the same thing as Zhang Long, but his ideas are different from Zhang Long.
"Do you see it?
Even if we hold these books in our hands and turn over them page by page, these books do not show any signs of decay.
This fully shows that the era these books have experienced is far inferior to what I have seen before.
This is one of the reasons why I speculate that this place was built by people from another civilization."
Nicholas also nodded noncommittally and looked at the book in his hand attentively.
"What the hell are you looking at?
I'm so fascinated by it, can you let me take a look?
Besides, can you understand?"
"sure."
As he spoke, Nicholas also lifted up the books in his hands. There were dozens of books, but they were also full of tiny words.
Moreover, Zhang Long took a closer look and found that although it looked like a thick book, it actually did not contain much recorded content.
They are also used separately above.
Old English, Old Latin, made the translation of the original text.
I don’t know who is so talented and started acting as a translator so many years ago.
"But although I can understand the words above.
But I don’t know what it means when combined.”
.
"Then bring it over and show it to me."
Nicholas closed the book and was about to hand it to Zhang Long. At this moment, the book suddenly started to burn from the inside.
"I go!"
Nicholas was also frightened and threw the book on the ground. Soon the fire on the book also touched the piece of tiger skin and burned quickly.
"Quickly put out the fire."
The two people also got the tools at hand that could be used to put out the fire and started fighting for a while, but unfortunately they had little effect.
Because the fire was gradually getting bigger, Zhang Long and Nicholas were almost unable to control it.
At this time, Zhang Long also had an idea and threw the jade pendant with dark fragrance patterns on his body towards the fire.
Sure enough, the heat-absorbing ability of that thing shouldn't be too strong.
All the fire was quickly absorbed.
Nicholas' eyes almost popped out of his head, and he said to Zhang Long: "Can this thing still be used in this way?"
"Sit down, this is just a basic operation. Haha, I'm just kidding you. In fact, I just wanted to give it a try, but I didn't expect it to work."
Only then did Zhang Long use something to pick out the unfinished book.
"Someone must not want us to see the secrets recorded in the book, so they put white phosphorus in the book. This thing has a very low ignition point and can easily burn."
Nicholas nodded in agreement.
"That thing is like a bible. I read it for a long time and didn't understand it. I even burned it. It's really an overestimation of our IQ."
After Zhang Long heard this, he couldn't help but have a dark look on his face.
What is this word?
"What on earth did you just read in that book?
What is so important that if the other party has to create such a mechanism, I would rather destroy it than let others get it."
