The Myriad Realms Trading Beginning with Douluo

Chapter 294 The Tomb of Prince Gumo

Ghost Blowing Lantern World, Xiye Ancient City.

Just when Lin Chen and the fat man were teasing Hu Bayi, Hu Bayi came out of the room with a compass.

Shirley Yang also followed behind him.

Holding the compass, Hu Bayi boarded the tower, turned around, and looked up at the sky from time to time.

Finally, Hu Bayi's compass was heading towards the ancient well in front of Lin Chen and the others.

After determining the location, Hu Bayi gathered everyone together.

"I observed the astrology just now, and I saw Jumen star, Zuofu star, Youbi star, three stars shining in the sky, arranged in an equilateral triangle, the central sun star, and the lunar star appeared side by side. This is a group of Qianjia Jinji stars.

According to the inheritance in Tianxing Fengshui, where the auspicious stars are shrouded here, there must be tombs. "

Hearing this, Professor Chen's eyes lit up, and he said, "Little Hu, where is the tomb? If it is an ancient tomb related to the Jingjue Ancient Country, it will be of great help to our actions."

Everyone didn't bother with it anymore, instead of arguing here, it's better to go straight down and find out.

It took about two or three minutes for Hu Ba to go down the well, and everyone saw a bright flashlight shining from the bottom of the well, which was mixed with whistles.

After Hu Bayi came up, he told everyone the following situation.

Lin Chen took advantage of the time when Professor Chen and the others were in a daze, and quickly slid his hands inside the coffin, taking a lot of funerary objects in the coffin.

The crowd stopped placing the ropes, and within about 2 minutes, Hu Bayi sent a signal to let the crowd pull him up.

And because of safety issues, everyone finally decided that Lin Chen, Hu Bayi, Professor Chen and Shirley Yang would go down, and everyone else would stay on top to watch out.

However, because the depth of the ancient well is not shallow, it is impossible to see the situation below.

"According to Tianxing Fengshui, the place where the auspicious stars correspond to the stars is the ancient well. That is to say, there must be a tomb under the ancient well."

Lin Chen looked around pretendingly, and then walked to the large relief stone slab on the floor.

After all, apart from Professor Chen, Hao Aiguo had the highest cultural knowledge in this area among the archaeological team.

The fat man was a little depressed because of this, but there was nothing he could do. With his skill, it would be hard to say if he fell into the water at that time.

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

Professor Chen looked around. This place was full of weirdness, but it still couldn't resist human curiosity.

Compared with the water level below, more than ten meters is nothing at all, not even half the distance.

Lin Chen ignored them, but came to the side of the coffin, quietly took out a crowbar from the storage ring, and then exposed all the nails nailed to the coffin.

Hu Bayi discussed with Shirley Yang that a double-buckle safety lock could be installed on the noose, and the person could be hoisted to the bottom of the well to observe the situation.

The surroundings are not rigid stone slabs, but rather exquisite murals.

After speaking, Lin Chen squatted down and tried to lift the big iron ring on the stone slab.

Although this space is spacious, the atmosphere is not relaxed. There are so many bones on the ground that it is impossible to find a place to put your feet on. The bones are extremely loose and will break if you step on them. There are dozens of wooden pillars around them. There are dried human skeletons, all of which look like middle-aged men.

Professor Chen was amazed, and said: "Strange, maybe this is not a mausoleum, but a secret passage or something. How can there be a mausoleum built next to a well in the world, and leave such a secret passage?"

Lin Chen and the other three young people can talk a little bit, but Professor Chen is different, the old man has weak bones.

Lin Chen directly lifted the slate to one side.

Hearing what Hu Bayi said, Professor Chen was overjoyed, and rushed to the well with the students excitedly, eager to go down and have a look.The curb and noose of this well were reinstalled later, and the previous one was destroyed at some unknown time.

Since Professor Chen has the best experience, Professor Chen has to go down, but Professor Chen is old, and the words of going down are a bit too exciting, and he can't bear it.

Gently pushed the coffin lid away, and suddenly, a burst of colored gas floated out from the coffin.

It is precisely because of this that Professor Chen and Shirley Yang, whose whole hearts were hanging on the mural, did not notice it.

It was night at this time, and the temperature was already cold, not to mention that Hu Bayi was approaching the water source, even the people standing at the mouth of the well felt that there would be a piercing cold wind blowing from time to time.

Then I threw a cold smoke into it, illuminating the bottom, and I saw that there was a tomb room under the ground, which was about the same size as the top, and there was a square coffin in the middle, which was said to be too different from the mainland. , without any decorative patterns, nor is it rectangular, but square, it looks like a big box.

Professor Chen said to everyone: "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. Here, the blood of slaughtered animals is poured on these mummies. Let's look for it, there should be a tomb here."

These murals alone can give them a general understanding of the ancient Jingjue country.

It turns out that the whole well is like a narrow-necked bottle, about ten meters down from the mouth of the well, the whole space becomes more spacious.

Not to mention that Lin Chen and the others had never seen this kind of tomb and coffin, even with Professor Chen's profound knowledge, they couldn't figure it out.This is probably a long-lost form of ancient national tombs, which was largely influenced by Han culture, but it is specious and has added a lot of its own culture, which is really rare.

After taking two pills and putting on gas masks, the four of them walked about [-] meters inward, passing through two stone gates in a row, the last gate was tightly sealed, and there were unknown strange beasts embossed on the stone gate. There was dead animal skin on the door, and the door was opened by cutting off the animal skin piece by piece with a flat shovel.

It was stained on Lin Chen's clothes, and immediately the clothes became wrinkled a lot.

Calculating the time, Hu Bayi should have descended more than ten meters deep.

After Hao Aiguo came down, the five of them descended into the tomb. .

When Lin Chen went down, he comforted the fat man, and said that if he came across valuable things, he would put them away quietly, and they would make a fortune when the time came.

"Ahem, the entrance is here."

A platform about [-] square meters in size was artificially built on the stone wall on the right. (This is different from the original drama, whether it is a TV series or a novel, please understand.)
The platform cannot be seen from the wellhead, but it will be found after the rope is hoisted down.

The movement of opening the coffin lid also disturbed Professor Chen and the others. Seeing that Lin Chen had opened the coffin, Shirley Yang and the others looked at Lin Chen in bewilderment.

Lin Chen couldn't help sighing, although he hadn't visited many tombs, but this tomb was the most beautiful one he had ever seen.

Behind the stone gate is a masonry-structured passageway, which is spacious and neat, and the inside is dark and unfathomable.

After a while, the noose was modified by everyone.

Even getting up and down the rope is very difficult.

It seems that those colored gases are poisonous, if Lin Chen is not careful, something will happen if he is not wearing a gas mask.

It feels okay, about a hundred catties.

Although there are water veins below, everyone still dare not be careless. Hu Bayi put on a gas mask, a flashlight, a whistle, an engineer shovel, and a dagger, and secretly hid the black donkey's hoof and the gold-touching talisman, and stretched out his hand to test the strength of the rope. , Discuss the method of contact. If you shake the flashlight up three times, the people above will stop and stop putting the rope when they see it; , if you cannot see the light of the flashlight, use the whistle to communicate.

Fortunately, the quality of the coffin was good. Although Lin Chen exposed all the nails in the coffin, he didn't make any sound.

Then Hu Bayi consciously prepared the things and hung them down from the mouth of the well. After all, he was the only one in the archaeological team who was the most suitable candidate.

Professor Chen kept telling Shirley Yang to pat the murals on the wall. When I go back this time, I can study these murals carefully, and if possible, I can use these materials to apply for national archaeological assistance.

After opening the stone slab of the tomb, Lin Chen went back and called Hao Aiguo down.

After going down, Lin Chen and Hu Bayi joined hands to pry open the stone door.

After Professor Chen's voice fell, the four of them looked around in the stone room.

When we walked to the end, we entered a spacious and dry stone room. The length and width were about 70 to [-] meters, and the height was [-] meters. Four people standing in it did not look cramped at all.

Professor Chen and the others began to carefully observe the murals. These murals recorded many things about the ancient country of Jingjue.

So everyone collected a lot of things in Xiye Ancient City and made a rope ladder.

"Xiao Lin, why did you open the coffin? The coffin buried together by Prince Gumo and his wife is a national treasure. We don't have the conditions and the environment is not suitable. Once opened, it will destroy the sealed coffin and its contents. We hereby The purpose of the trip is to submit an evaluation report to the superior, apply for excavation, or give due protection to these ancient civilization heritage. Oh, you"

Professor Chen took a few breaths, with a look of hatred for iron.

Lin Chen smiled embarrassedly. His main purpose of opening the coffin was to see if there were items needed for his mission inside.

It doesn't seem to be there now, but it's pretty good to get some funerary objects.
