Tomb Raider: Opening mechanism, automatically stealing the empty bottle mountain

There are many unknown strange beasts embossed on the stone gate, and a thick layer of animal skin is tightly attached to the crack of the door.

After cutting off the animal skin piece by piece with the mystery box, the four of Gong Shuyang opened the door.

There is still a long passage behind this door, and after walking to the end, it enters a spacious and dry stone room.

This stone room is more than 20 feet long and wide, and the height is more than one foot high, so four people can go in without being crowded.

Although the space here is very spacious, the atmosphere in it is indeed not relaxed at all.

Under the white light from the octospider, Gong Shuyang and the others could clearly see that the ground was full of white bones, and they couldn't even find a place to step down.

Fortunately, looking at the shape of the bones, they should all be animals, and the whole body is extremely loose, breaking when touched, and there are dozens of wooden stakes standing around the stone room.

On the wood are tied a group of human corpses that have been completely dried. Judging from the skeleton, they should all be men of one year of age.

The four of Gongshuyang have experienced a lot of training, the scene here is not enough to scare the four of them, it just makes the four of them feel that this place is very strange.The old foreigner looked at the bones on it and said, "Brother Gongshu, these corpses should be those who were buried as slaves? Or prisoners, right?" Nodding, he said to the three of them: "Looking at the appearance of this stone house, it should be the place where sacrifices to the important dead are held."

"This is Gumo's burial style in ancient times. If there is no accident, the people tied to the stakes should all be criminals." "They were all tied to the stakes to starve to death, and then died in the desert." Dry them into mummies, and put them here." "Then slaughter the animals and pour their blood on these mummies." "If there are no accidents, there should be a hidden tomb here."

After listening to Gong Shuyang and expressing their understanding, everyone spread out. There are stone walls on all sides. After a few simple knocks, it is obvious that this place is solid, and there should not be any special rooms behind it.

In the end, it was Gong Shuyang who was careful and found something wrong with the floor of the stone room, so he controlled the octospider to sweep away all the broken bones on the ground.

Only then did a large stone slab with reliefs appear on the ground. At both ends of the slate, there were two palm-sized pull rings.

Because the stone slab was a bit huge, Gong Shuyang couldn't hold the two pull rings by himself, and the stone slab had been placed for a long time, Gong Shuyang was also a little worried that these pull rings could not bear his own strength.

So I greeted the partridge whistle to help pull up the stone slab.

After the partridge whistle was in place, under the order of Gong Shuyang, the two of them exerted their strength at the same time, and directly pulled the stone slabs away from the ground.

Then he controlled the octospider to go down, illuminating the bottom clearly, and saw that there was a tomb room under the ground that was almost the same as the top.

There is also a square coffin in the middle, but it is said to be a coffin, but the gap with the mainland is actually very huge.

There are no decorative patterns on the released coffin, and the overall shape is not rectangular, but square. If you look closely, it looks like a big box.

Not to mention that Chen Yulou had never seen this kind of tomb and coffin, even with Gong Shuyang's profound knowledge, he didn't see why.

This kind of coffin is probably a form of ancient national tomb that has been lost for a long time, and it seems that it has been greatly influenced by Han culture.

However, it has been made specious and many independent cultural elements have been added, so it is really a rare occasion.

Without continuing to watch from above, Gong Shuyang took the lead to go down after confirming that there was nothing wrong with the secret room below.

Chen Yulou and Zhehushao also followed one after another, and came to the underground tomb to have a look, only to find that the walls of the tomb here are all exquisite and colorful murals!When Gong Shuyang saw the mural on it, he couldn't help but said: 0.. . …ask for flowers.

"The record on this mural... probably has something to do with the 'Jingjue Ancient City'!"

When everyone heard this, they all came to nature one after another, gathered around one after another, and were quite curious about the colorful mural.Gong Shuyang carefully looked at the information on the mural, and then said: "The first few murals show that the owner of this tomb was the prince of Gumo."

"This Gumo is a subordinate city of Jingjue Ancient City, and it is the kind that is oppressed. Every year, it has to go there to dedicate a large number of gold, silver, treasures, cattle and sheep slaves!" "This prince of Gumo once went to Jingjue The queen begged to give his subjects freedom, but she went three times in a row, but she never saw the queen's face." "This mural is probably the resentment of Prince Gumo's heart! But this prince of Gumo can be regarded as a 'Brave'."

... 0 "In this mural, he claims to be the incarnation of the 'Sun God of War'. He sneaked into the ancient city of Jingjue alone to assassinate the evil Queen Jingjue." "But Prince Gumo inadvertently discovered a huge secret."

The three of Chen Yulou were all attracted by Gong Shuyang's words, so they all waited while Gong Shuyang continued to explain the secret of this exquisite queen.Gong Shuyang walked to the mural below, watched the mural carefully for a long time, and then said: "The meaning of this mural is rather strange. Look at the prince hiding in the corner and spying on it." "But The face of this exquisite queen is veiled in all the murals."

"And in this one, the Jingjue Queen has only one background, and it looks like a veil has been lifted." "Look, the person opposite the Jingjue Queen has directly turned into a shadow , and then disappeared in an instant."

Everyone was confused, what the hell is going on, the content on the mural is so vague?Or is Gong Shuyang's understanding wrong?

But how do you look at it, is it like this?

Just when everyone was confused, Gong Shuyang, who had been silent for a long time, said again: "From the point of view of the strokes, this queen is absolutely exquisite. I guess it belongs to the category of 'monster'." Son.

Chapter 331 - Queen of the Desert! (Seek full order!

"monster??"

Everyone was even more confused when they heard Gong Shuyang's words.

How did this mention 'monsters'?

Gong Shuyang didn't continue to think, and immediately pointed to the mural and continued: "The artist who painted the mural is very skilled, and the composition is gorgeous and vivid!"

"The narration is even more about the prince of the Gumo Kingdom. Although there are no written notes on the major events in his life, the characteristics are extremely distinctive." While listening to Gong Shuyang's analysis, everyone also observed, and it was indeed like Gong Shu. Yang said.

The characters, costumes, buildings, and expressions in the murals are all lifelike.

If you have some understanding of the culture of the Western Regions, then based on the information in the painting, you can roughly grasp the background of the events recorded in the painting.

"But I was thinking just now that if all the translations are based on the murals, then the meaning of the last mural of "[-]" will be translated differently." "But the murals have no words, the purpose of this is to facilitate understanding, So everything that appears here is deliberately done by the artist." "Then, in this case, some things can be explained."

"You can see in the painting that the queen has lifted the veil that has always been covering her face, and a figure opposite her has become a dotted line."

"The characters in all these murals are realistic, but the person who saw the face of Queen Jingjue turned into a dotted line and only drew a vague outline."

"From this only outline, I can't see the identity of this character. I can only speculate that this dotted character is a slave or an assassin, an enemy that the Queen wants to get rid of." "So as long as it is The painter did not make a mistake, so this should be the true meaning of this painting." Hearing this, Chen Yulou couldn't help asking: "Then according to Brother Gongshu, the person in the painting is the one who met Jingjue. The Queen's face disappeared completely after that?" Gong Shuyang nodded and continued: "Brother Chen is right, but I believe that the person in the painting disappeared after meeting the eyes of the Queen Jingjue .”

Everyone is still a little puzzled when they hear this. After all, this is indeed a bit unbelievable. Although it is not impossible, does this Queen of Absolute Essence also have such a thing as 'ghost eyes'?After all, until now, all you know is that 'Ghost Eye' can do these things on the screen.

'Ghost eyes'?Everyone seemed to have thought of something suddenly, they were taken aback for a moment, and then looked straight at Gong Shuyang.Gong Shuyang was also unambiguous, and immediately said: "Have you ever read a book called "The Western Regions of the Tang Dynasty"?"

"It was written by Xuanzang, an eminent monk in the Tang Dynasty. There are many legends and stories of the ancient Western Regions recorded in the book." "Among them is a story called, The Queen of the Desert."

"According to the book, in the depths of the desert, there is a city inhabited by a nation from the underground. They conquered and ruled other small surrounding countries."

"Hundreds of years later, the throne passed to a queen. It is said that the eyes of this queen are the passages to the underworld. As long as she looks at her enemy, the other party will disappear without a trace and return forever. I won’t come.” “The queen of the desert adopts a high-handed rule. She wants the people of all neighboring countries to worship her as a true god, and all those who resist will be skinned and killed.” “And this desert queen didn’t survive for long. She died soon." "So if I guessed correctly, the desert queen should be the exquisite queen."

"And she is probably a 'ghost mother' who escaped and survived! After all, the exquisite and special costumes, as well as the exquisite and unique buildings and decorations, these are the most powerful evidence!" Everyone heard Here, everyone breathed a sigh of relief, and it was as expected. I didn't expect that this exquisite queen was also a "ghost mother" who escaped from the "Evil Luohai City"!

Of course, if it weren't for Gong Shuyang's later explanation, otherwise, everyone probably wouldn't have thought of this at all.Gong Shuyang continued to examine the murals, and then said: "The meanings expressed in the next few murals are more clear."

"Prince Gumo's assassination did not succeed. After he returned to the country, he continued to plan how to get rid of the queen." "Just when the prince was at a loss, the prince of Gumo met a fortune teller from a distant country."

"The fortune-teller asked the prince to hide the slow poison brewed by special traits in the golden lamb meat, and then pay tribute to the queen. Sure enough, news of the queen's sudden death came soon after."

"But at the same time, the prince died prematurely due to overwork. He and his beloved wife were buried together. The fortune teller designed a mausoleum and buried them under the altar of the holy well."

Everyone sighed after hearing this. They didn't expect that Gumo's prince was also a capable person. However, Gong Shuyang still had doubts about the way of Queen Jingjue's death.

After all, as the heir of 'Ghost Eye', he is a short-lived ghost. If he is stimulated by the outside world, he may die suddenly.

So it can be seen that the content of this mural should be real.

At this moment, a system prompt sounded suddenly in Gong Shuyang's mind.

【Ding!Congratulations to the host for discovering the 'Murals in Gumo Nei' and completing all translations, and obtaining the exploration progress of 'Exquisite Ancient City': 5%!Please host keep up the good work! ] "There is no system reward? But yes, this mural is mainly about Prince Gumo." Shaking his head, Gong Shuyang ignored the system prompt in his mind and continued to observe the mural.

However, there were no useful clues on the mural. Turning his head, Gong Shuyang's eyes lit up, and the bright eyes seemed to hold a galaxy of stars.

After glancing at the only coffin in the tomb, Gong Shuyang shook his head.

After all, the prince of Gumo died. Even though Queen Jingjue also died together, Gumo had no leader and soon perished.

This led to the funeral objects of Prince Gumo, which contained almost no funeral objects, and the only funeral objects 1.8 were a few simple pieces of jade.

And looking at it like that, it doesn't seem to be that valuable. Gong Shuyang has no interest in this coffin.

But other people were very interested in it. Seeing that the mural had been translated, Chen Yulou came over to ask if the coffin could be opened.

Gong Shuyang didn't speak, but just nodded. Seeing Gong Shuyang's nod, Chen Yulou and Zhehushao surrounded him.

The sealing of the coffin was very simple, Chen Yulou grabbed the 'Xiao Shenfeng' and opened the coffin within a few strokes.

Chapter 332 - Sand Sea! (Seek full order!

Gong Shuyang looked at the jade wares inside the coffin, and sure enough, as expected, all of them were more symbolic than practical.

This kind of thing is useless to Gong Shuyang, but it couldn't be better for Chen Yulou.

Because these artifacts will become the most direct evidence that Chen Yulou has explored here.

There is no further delay here. After the exploration is completed, everyone is ready to leave first. When passing by the stone gate of the sacrifice.

Everyone sealed the stone gate here again. After all, this Prince Gumo is miserable, and Chen Yulou's trip can be regarded as gaining something he likes.

So I was in a good mood, sealed the coffin of Prince Gumo again, and then closed the door here by the way, before leaving.

Everyone took a brief rest in West Night City, and then continued to head south.

Finally, two days later, I entered the sand sea of ​​the 'Black Desert' recorded in the estimate.

When you get here, you will no longer see poplar trees in the desert, and there will be no undulating sand hills in 07. The heights of the sand dunes around here are almost the same.

From a distance, it looks like flat hills, endless, even from any angle, it is the same scenery, without any sign of life.

Arriving here, it is considered to have completely entered the forbidden zone of life.

Since then, there have been no relevant records here, and even Gong Shuyang doesn't know the terrain here, only the general direction.

But even though the terrain here is extremely different, Gong Shuyang still managed to spot the plants such as stalks and punts in the sand nest with his miraculous eyes.

Relying on the memory in his mind, he reluctantly led everyone to move on.

There is the largest water system in the inland in the desert, but almost all of the water system here seeps into the sky full of yellow sand.

The seemingly barren desert may be the turbulent underground river deep underground.

Some plants that specially grow in the desert rely on the water vapor that rises to the surface of the desert bit by bit from the underground water veins to survive tenaciously.

Of course, there are not only sparse vegetation here, but also many animals living here, but most of these animals come out to look for food after dark.

Because the temperature of the desert at that time would be relatively much lower, and it would be easier to find scorpions, lizards, and other nocturnal animals that live in the desert when they came out to forage at this time.

In fact, in the Han Dynasty or even earlier, Taklamakan was known as the "ancient trade route".

At that time, the degree of desertification in this area was not serious, and the river had not penetrated into the ground. There were oasis towns, Xubao, Buddhist temples and post stations everywhere.

Numerous caravans carried silk, spices, and tea back and forth here. Until the Yuan Dynasty, the famous Italian Marco Polo went to the Central Plains with the caravan.

In the Ming Dynasty, due to some foreign wars, the trade volume of this "ancient commercial route" was greatly reduced, and finally it was completely abandoned as time went by.

With the desertion of this trade route, coupled with the increasingly serious desert erosion and the harsh living environment, countries large and small in the desert have completely declined.

The black desert has long been completely abandoned. The civilization here stopped in the Jin Dynasty. Until today, the black desert is still lifeless.

On the first day of entering here, everyone encountered very slight wind and sand, which dyed the sky yellowish.

Fortunately, the sandstorm was not too big, and it just blocked the sun hanging high in the sky, so everyone could follow along during the day.

Although the place here is no longer recorded in the ancient books, but fortunately, the explorer's handbook that was bought before the Partridge Whistle was all in English.

So Gong Shuyang led the way while holding the handbook. In this notebook, it was recorded after leaving West Night City.

The owner of this manual found a place nearby with a large number of stone tombs. Because he was exploring when he came back, it was recorded in detail in the manual.

With Gong Shuyang's ability and the help of this manual, although there is no way to achieve precise positioning, in the direction of distance, it is still possible to achieve a rough degree.

In this way, everyone went to the night, and when they were camping, Gong Shuyang found a raised land, and then they built a reasonable sand-proof wall on the sand dune.

After settling down, they lit a fire on the leeward side of the dunes for warmth.

Everyone walked very hard that day. Although the wind in the desert was not too strong all day long, it was always mixed with some yellow sand, which hit people and made people upset.

When leaning against the fire, everyone complained about the non-stop wind and sand today.Even Chen Yulou opened his mouth and said: "The wind and sand on this road, disturbing people can't open their mouths, even if they open their mouths, their voices are completely covered by the wind and sand all over the sky." "It's really depressing to go down this road " Gong Shuyang shook his head and said, "It's the windy season here, and this kind of weather is very common in the desert."

"When there is no wind and the sun is shining in the sky, then there is no way to travel during the day."

Everyone knew it too, so they didn't continue talking, but silently took out the jerky they carried with them, and ate it bite by bite.Chen Yulou took a bite of the jerky, and asked Gongshuyang beside him, "Brother Gongshu, how long does it take to get to the location of the Jingjue ancient city?" Gongshuyang thought for a while, and then said: "At the current speed of travel, it should take five days to truly go deep into the Black Desert." 950 "As for the exact location of Jingjue Ancient City, I'm actually not completely sure." "But if everything goes well, it should be at most Seven or eight days will do."

When everyone heard this, they all had bitter faces, and there were still seven or eight days to go. In this kind of yellow sand all over the sky, it was a kind of suffering to rush on the road!

Sighing, Chen Yulou stood up and left.Gong Shuyang was a little puzzled and asked, "Brother Chen, where are you going?"

Chen Yulou pointed to Xiaowei and didn't continue talking. When everyone saw this, they knew that this was going to be convenient.

At this time, Hua Maguai, who was beside the fire, also stood up and followed.

They didn't continue to pay attention to the two of them, and everyone continued to sit by the fire while eating and chatting with each other.As time passed, Zhehu Whistle frowned, and asked, "Isn't Brother Chen going there for a long time?" The old foreigner interjected leisurely, "Maybe Chen has diarrhea?"

PS: I'm here to kneel down and ask for all kinds of support from the judges!Ask for a full order, ask for a custom order!Ask for flowers, ask for rewards, ask for monthly tickets!Ask for evaluation votes, ask for everything, thank you! ! !

Chapter 333 - Wei Jin Stone Tomb! (Seek full order!

Partridge Whistle gave the old foreigner an angry look, and then said, "All you eat here are dried meat and a little pickle." "How could you have diarrhea?"

Before the old foreigner could answer, the wind and sand on one side of the dune began to grow again. Before everyone raised their heads, a gunshot came from behind the dune.

Everyone was shocked when they heard it, and then picked up their own guys and rushed to the scene of the incident.

Fortunately, the place where the gunshot came from was very close to everyone, only a few hundred steps away, three steps in parallel, and in an instant, everyone had arrived at the place.
