After resting for a while, Xiao Chang slowly recounted the terrifying experience he had after going to the tomb.
He was the first to enter the robbery cave, and because he had been in and out several times before, he walked very quickly.
But he soon discovered something was wrong.
Going to the tomb this time is completely different from before!
We unexpectedly came to a strange intersection that we had never seen before.
After hesitating for a moment, Xiao Chang did not dare to move forward rashly, but waited for Lin Yian and Li Jinyong.
As time passed by, a doubt arose in Xiao Chang's heart.
Logically speaking, at this distance, even if the two of them were not familiar with the terrain, they could walk within three or four minutes at most. However, after waiting for a full quarter of an hour, the two of them were nowhere to be seen.
Something is wrong!
There must be something wrong here.
After thinking about it, Xiao Chang decided to go back to meet the two of them.
But as he walked back, a strange feeling enveloped him.
He found that he seemed to be trapped in an endless cycle of tomb passages, and he could not get out no matter how he walked. It was like the legendary ghost breaking through the wall.
In the process, Xiao Chang also saw the strange old watchman mural.
The old watchman's appearance looked the same as Lin Yian's at first glance, but at the second glance he looked like Li Jinyong, which made Xiao Chang break into a cold sweat.
Fortunately, the ghost wall he faced was a bit special. He just couldn't go toward the entrance of the Thief's Cave, but there was no problem going deeper into the tomb passage.
In desperation, Xiao Chang had no choice but to return to Sanchakou. He waited for a few minutes again, but Lin Yian and Li Jinyong were still nowhere to be seen.
He thought that he could not stay here forever and had to find a way out. So he gritted his teeth and crawled into the tomb passage in the middle of the three forks, hoping to find a way to the outside world.
After walking forward for about a few dozen meters, he found that he had entered a dead end. At the end of the tomb passage was a hard stone wall with no way out.
Seeing this, Xiao Chang felt very upset, but it was too late to regret at this time. He could only walk back cautiously, always alert to the dangers around him.
Even though I was extremely careful and moved carefully step by step, the accident still happened.
Xiao Chang accidentally stepped on a loose stone slab, which flipped over. He instantly lost his balance and fell into the trap pit.
The scene in the pit made Xiao Chang take a breath of cold air. There were many sharp blades inside, and even though hundreds of years had passed, the light was still cold and dazzling.
Between the sharp blades, there were no less than ten skeletons or mummies lying,
Fortunately, there were two unjust ghosts where Xiao Chang fell. The bodies of these two unjust ghosts blocked several life-threatening knives in the pit for him, allowing him to escape by chance.
However, although he was not killed on the spot, his current situation is also very bad.
Almost a dead end.
First of all, the depth of the pit reached an astonishing five meters. The walls around the pit were not only covered with sharp blades, but also poured something slippery and like lubricating oil.
Xiao Chang tried to climb up, but slipped down again and again. His hands were scratched by sharp blades on the wall of the pit and bled.
But he ignored the pain and had only one thought in his mind, which was to crawl out as soon as possible.
If you don't get out early, you will definitely die!
After struggling for a few minutes, Xiao Chang began to have difficulty breathing.
The air in the pit is getting thinner and thinner!
This is the most fatal.
Fortunately, there was an oxygen bottle, and fresh and pure oxygen entered his nasal cavity, and he quickly calmed down.
Turn on the strong flashlight, take out the special Luoyang shovel, and start digging steps on the pit wall.
After more than ten minutes of digging, and after a tank of oxygen was completely consumed, he finally dug out a few steps and successfully climbed up.
After talking about this thrilling experience, Xiao Chang's face showed a trace of exhaustion, and it seemed that he had consumed a lot of energy.
Lin Yian couldn't help but ask the question in his mind: "Young Protector, how did you find this stone palace?"
Li Jinyong also looked at Xiao Chang curiously, waiting for his answer.
Xiao Chang gave a helpless smile, "After I climbed out of the robbery cave, I felt a ghost following me. When I walked, it walked, and when I stopped, it stopped! In order to get rid of it, I kept running forward.
I don’t know how long I ran, but when I saw some light in front of me, I ran toward the light, and then I came here!”
"What should we do now? Continue to search for the main tomb chamber or go back and repair it?" Lin Yian broke the silence and asked thoughtfully.
Xiao Chang was resolute, "We must find the main tomb as soon as possible. We are thieves and we are doing illegal business. If we stay here for a moment longer, we will be in more danger."
Jin Yong also agreed, "Young Protector is right, we can't waste time here."
At this time, Xiao Chang smiled and shook his head, "Brothers, we really have to waste some time here!"
Li Jinyong and Lin Yian looked at each other, then looked at Xiao Chang together, and asked in unison: "Is the real entrance to the maritime merchant's tomb in this stone hall?"
Xiao Chang stood up, came to the stone statue in front of the confession, and said slowly: "If I guessed correctly, it is here! All other places are just to deceive others!"
"What's the basis?" Li Jinyong asked, touching his chin.
Xiao Chang's eyes were clear, as if he had seen through the secrets of this ancient tomb. "Brother An must have told you about the 'Road to Immortality'?"
Li Jinyong nodded, "Yes, although the ancients paid attention to burials, they often buried them shallowly because they were afraid of going to the Hell of Hell and suffering if the graves were dug too deep.
"Because this maritime merchant's tomb is buried very deep, it is necessary to build a path to immortality leading to the ground."
Snap!
Xiao Chang snapped his fingers, "The road to ascend to immortality must be connected to the main tomb chamber, so that the owner of the tomb can become an immortal."
When he said this, Li Jinyong's eyes lit up. Yes, if the road to immortality is not connected to the main tomb, then how can one ascend to immortality?
"If I read it correctly, this shrine should be the Dengxian Platform on the road to immortality.
"And the ascension platform will never be more than ten meters away from the main tomb!"
Xiao Chang said these words with unusual certainty, as if the treasures in the main tomb chamber were already slowly waving to him.
"It's just a little strange. Why are there no utensils on the altar table?" Xiao Chang walked around the altar table and then asked in confusion.
He had no idea that Lin Yian had already packed the eight blue and white porcelain plates in his backpack, so he naturally felt a little strange.
Lin Yian responded vaguely, "There are so many corpses on the ground, they must have been stolen!" After saying that, he glanced at Li Jinyong, as if he wanted him to help cover them up.
But Li Jinyong's attention was not here at all, but his eyes were fixed on the stone tablet under the altar table.
"Brother Li, what's wrong with you?"
Li Jinyong answered the question, "This painting looks like it was painted by a famous artist!"
"painting?"
Lin Yian and Xiao Chang were confused.
There may be any kind of burial objects in ancient tombs, but there are very few calligraphy and paintings.
Although some have been unearthed, they are extremely rare. It can be said that they are extremely rare.
