The Queen of Jingjue asked me to go rob a tomb

Chapter 143 Open the coffin

On the road afterwards, the three of them were extra cautious.

But unexpectedly, no other traps appeared.

And soon, they entered a spacious and dry stone room.

The length and width of the stone chamber are almost 70 to meters, and the height is three meters. Three people standing in it don't look cramped and crowded at all.

However, although the space here is spacious, the atmosphere is not relaxed.

There were so many bones on the ground that it was almost impossible to find a place to set foot.

Careful observation revealed that the bones were all from animals, extremely loose and would break if stepped on.

Dozens of wooden pillars stood around, on which were tied several dried human skeletons, all of which looked like men in their prime.

Hu Bayi looked at the mummified corpses and sighed: "It's so miserable, they are all buried slaves or prisoners, it's too barbaric."

Lu Zihan nodded and said, "It seems that this is a place where sacrifices to the important dead are held. This is the custom of Gumo in ancient times. These individuals are all criminals. They were tied up in the desert to die of thirst, and they were placed here after they were completely air-dried. , and then the blood of the slaughtered animals was poured on these mummies."

While sighing, Lu Zihan found a bronze tripod.

All kinds of strange patterns are carved on it.

The ghost eye secret technique was opened.

[Item: Bronze Sacrificial Fang Ding]

[Dynasty: Gumo Kingdom in the Ancient Western Regions]

【History: 2800 years】

Nearly 3000 years of history!

If the two old scholars outside find out about this thing, they will probably wake up happily at night!

This is a national treasure bronze ware!

The two will definitely write a written report immediately and apply for a team to conduct protective excavations.

At that time, things will be pulled outside, and then such a publicity will be made.

Enough to make these two names go down in history.

But when the young master found out, there was nothing wrong with those two guys.

Lu Zihan waved his hand, take it!

After that, I went around the stone room a few times and found that except for the bronze tripod, it was all broken.

"Prince Gumo is poor enough!"

At this time, Hu Bayi asked with a puzzled expression, "Lao Lu, why didn't you see the coffin?"

Lu Zihan said, "This is just a sacrificial hall, there should be other passages."

other channels?

But Hu Bayi searched a few times, but couldn't find any clues at all.

At this moment, Lu Zihan pointed at him, and saw Zhang Qiling squatting in the corner of the stone room, observing something.

Hu Bayi's expression changed, "Brother found it!"

So he ran over there quickly.

As soon as he arrived, he found Zhang Qiling cleaning up a pile of bones.

When all the bones were cleared to one side, a large stone slab with reliefs was exposed on the ground, and there were two pull rings at both ends.

"So it's hidden here."

Hu Bayi squatted down to pull the ring, but found that it didn't move.

"Old Hu, don't waste your energy, there is a machine lock under here."

Lu Zihan tapped a small hole on the edge of the stone slab with his foot, and Hu Bayi stretched out his head to look, and sure enough, he saw a chain underneath.

It seems that the stone slab can only be opened by pulling the chain.

Hu Bayi tried to put his fingers in, but he couldn't reach the chain inside.

Suddenly he said helplessly: "Unless you use special tools, you can't get it up! But such a small hole, there is no tool that can reach in and lift the chain up."

Lu Zihan raised his chin at him with a relaxed face and said, "There is a bottle of boring oil, are you afraid that there is an unbreakable trap?"

Then Zhang Qiling stretched out two slender fingers and thrust them into the hole on the floor.

sizzle~~
After a while of fiddling, the two iron chains hidden in the hole were pulled out.

Hu Bayi said in shock, "Faqiuzhi is really a magic weapon to crack the mechanism."

"Okay, don't sigh, give me a hand!"

"oh oh!"

The two each grabbed a chain and pulled hard.

Rumble!
Suddenly, the whole ground began to tremble.

Then I saw the floor sinking slowly, revealing an extremely dark passage.

There was a sound of poof.

It seems that another mechanism has been triggered below.

Then I saw a ray of fire light up on the side of the passage.

Then it rushed down quickly, forming a fire dragon,
Instantly illuminated the entire passage.

Hu Bayi stretched out his head and glanced down, and found that it was a staircase spiraling downwards.

At this time, Lu Zihan walked in directly on the steps.

Seeing this, Hu Bayi hurriedly shouted, "Old Lu, be careful there are traps!"

Lu Zihan smiled and said, "Don't worry, old Hu, the two traps in front have already broken through, and if you can still get here, the owner of the tomb will probably treat you as one of his own, so don't worry about any traps."

"Look, they even saved the flashlight for you. This is lighting a torch to welcome us!"

Hu Bayi thinks about it too.

And such a bright environment.

But if you observe carefully, you don't have to worry about any trouble.

"Go behind me!"

Zhang Qiling spoke, Hu Ba nodded.

The two also bent over and walked down.

The spiral staircase is not too long, maybe seven or eight meters high.

After a while, the three of them came to an end.

Then what was exposed in front of several people was a tomb.

The tomb is not big, but there is a coffin in the middle.

I think this is the main tomb.

but…

This is a coffin with a square mouth. It is said to be a coffin, but it is too different from the mainland.
There is no decorative pattern on it, nor is it rectangular, but square, it looks like a big box.

Hu Bayi wondered, "Let's say I haven't seen this kind of tomb and coffin, or I've never heard of it."

"This is probably a long-lost form of ancient national tombs. It is largely influenced by Han culture, but it is specious and has added a lot of its own culture. It is really rare."

In addition,

The walls around the tomb are covered with exquisite strokes, describing the life of Prince Gumo.

After a cursory glance, Hu Bayi asked, "Lao Lu, do you think the records on it are related to the ancient country of Jingjue?"

Lu Zihan nodded and told them:

"The first few paintings show that the owner of the tomb was the prince of Gumo. Gumo was an elite vassal who was oppressed. Every year, he sacrificed a large number of treasures, cattle, sheep and slaves.
He once went to the Queen Jingjue to ask for freedom for his subjects. He went three times in a row, but he never saw the queen.

This painting probably means that he is not reconciled. The brave prince is the incarnation of the Sun God of War. He sneaks into Jingjue alone to assassinate the evil queen, but discovers a big secret. "

Having said that, Lu Zihan stopped and walked to a mural.

Hu Bayi became interested and hurriedly asked, "What secret?!"

Lu Zihan pointed to the mural in front of him and said, "Look at this mural."

on this mural.

Prince Gumo hid in the corner and watched.

The queen's face is covered with a veil in all murals. In this painting, the queen only has a back view, and only her hand lifts the veil. The person on the opposite side, who seems to be a slave or something, becomes A shadow...disappeared?

"How can a living person disappear after just one glance? Could it be that the Queen of Essence is a monster like in the legend?"

Lu Zihan smiled, "She's not a monster, it's just a magical method. As for where the slave went, Lao Hu, didn't you go there too?"

Hu Bayi was taken aback, "I've been there too? Where?"

At this time Zhang Qiling said lightly, "South China Sea, coral spiral!"

Hu Bayi gasped, that's it! !
For a moment, Hu Bayi was confused.

Many questions suddenly popped up in my mind.

Lu Zihan patted him, "Don't think about it if you can't figure it out, just relax! Go and light the candles!"

Candle?

"Old Lu, do you want to open the coffin?"

"Of course! I almost fell for this kid earlier, you don't want to see what this Gumo Laoyinbi looks like?"

"it is good!"

Hu Ba nodded, took out the compass and quickly located the southeast corner, and then lit the prepared candle.

Seeing that the candle flame was stable, Hu Ba said to the two of them, "The coffin can be opened!"

Then three people each with a crowbar.

One, two, three, up!

Following Lu Zihan's soft drink, the three pushed up hard at the same time.

The extremely heavy coffin lid was immediately turned over.

just the next second,
A red light suddenly appeared.

The three of them were quickly wrapped inside.

Before he could react, the red light disappeared.

And when the three of them looked at the scene in front of them again, they were completely petrified! ! !
