Lin Ran felt that he should have gone to the underground river to look for food. The underground river was flowing and there should be fish and other creatures in it. Otherwise, the monster would not have been able to live in the ancient tomb for such a long time with its huge body.

But not knowing the specific location of the monster, Lin Ran didn't dare let anyone go down to check the situation. He had a vague feeling that Zhou Tian's people should have climbed to the back through the rope. After all, when he came over, he noticed that there were footprints near the door, and Very messy.

As for why the monster did not dare to approach the palace gate, Lin Ran was also a little confused.

Previously, he thought it was because the temperature here was high enough to form a natural barrier.

However, they did not feel the temperature being very high while standing here, and the floor grid that had been separated because Wang Jinpeng lifted the bronze tripod has now been closed again.

The view outside gradually dimmed, and the temperature returned to the normal range. The tomb was no longer as hot as before.

It is really unimaginable to design such a mechanism using the technology of the ancients.

Originally, Lin Ran thought that these two tomb doors were the entrances to the central hall and should be designed to be very tight and not easy to open.

However, Wang Jinpeng and others discovered through observation that there was only a bolt stuck behind the door.

He used a knife to pierce the crack of the door and slowly moved the door bolt to the side. Not long after, there was a click from inside.

Then Wang Jinpeng pushed the door hard and was pushed open.

The native masters did not expect that the tomb door was designed to be so light, without even the most basic chains and tombstones.

"It's so easy to open, there must be something fishy inside!" Wang Jinpeng said pretending to be profound.

Huang Hao interrupted: "Fat man, you don't have to say this."

"You can't even say that?" Wang Jinpeng glared at him.

Liu Jingfeng smiled and said: "It's possible that the tomb owner was full of confidence in the tomb-guarding beast. He probably didn't expect anyone to come here."

Everyone was unconvinced. This inference was a bit far-fetched, but it was not impossible.

After opening the door, there was a rotten smell coming from inside, as if it had not been opened for a long time.

Everyone looked at Lin Ran. He had not given an order, and no one would step into the ancient tomb without permission.

Lin Ran checked the threshold and found that there was no mechanism.

Looking up, I saw the cornices above, which seemed very ordinary.

From this point of view, Liu Jingfeng's speculation was correct. The tomb owner did not expect that anyone could break through the squares of the front hall and the middle hall to get here, and he did not seem to worry that anyone would disturb his eternal sleep.

Therefore, the two tomb doors were only designed with a not very sophisticated mechanism at the back, and they were opened easily.

Of course, there is another possibility, that is, the tomb owner's craftsmen closed the tomb door in a hurry before they had time to design the mechanism.

This was a crazy idea, but somehow it appeared in Lin Ran's eyes.

After confirming that there was no danger near the door, Lin Ran took the lead and stepped into the middle hall.

The pace was very slow, and the others followed cautiously behind.

"Will Xu Jieyun be inside?" Lin Ran only had this thought in his mind. It was impossible for all the people in the archaeological team to be eaten by monsters.

Even if you dig through the entire ancient tomb, you still have to find out the problems. This ancient tomb is definitely not simple.

Compared to the front hall, the layout here was very familiar to Lin Ran. It was completely in the Tang Dynasty tomb style.

The tomb chamber is a completely sealed structure. When the door was opened just now, a huge wind pressure came from inside. It was obvious that the air pressure inside and outside was different.

However, there were many grooves designed on the walls of the tomb, which made Lin Ran a little confused.

This design is a bit counterintuitive. It looks like a soundproof room design. But this is an ancient tomb, so what kind of soundproof design is needed?

Lin Ran couldn't figure it out for a while. It was not the time to dwell on such details until now, so he continued walking along the palace. There were a large number of murals on the ceiling. The murals looked extremely ghastly and terrifying, completely like drawings of hell.

The walls were rugged and unpainted.

Lin Ran suddenly began to have doubts. Is this really an ancient tomb from the Tang Dynasty?

It's impossible to tell simply from the murals. The main reason is that the murals on the ceiling are too scary, and they have begun to fade and darken over time.

Moving forward, human murals finally began to appear.

The ladies on the murals are slightly fat and colorful, which is obviously the style of the Tang Dynasty.

"How did they paint on the ceiling?" Wang Jinpeng asked, shining a flashlight on the ceiling.

"That's too simple. You can just use a ladder or hang it down with a rope." Huang Hao said. Having been a native scholar for many years, Huang Hao is no longer surprised by the murals on the ceiling.

For example, the most famous Dunhuang has many murals on the ceiling, but they are basically based on Buddhist culture.

The human heart is beautiful and peaceful from above, so most of the murals are scenes from the fairy world and the human world. The style of the previous murals was too dark. With their eyes, they can tell at once that they are clearly scenes from hell. .

Now that he has finally arrived in the human world, his mind has calmed down slightly.

However, although we have now reached the murals of the human world, the scenes above are not comparable to the drawings of hell.

Outside, there were just a few ladies whispering, but when you walked inside, you found that the content on the murals was too shocking.

Because what is painted above is actually torture, full of blood and violence.

Even Lin Ran couldn't help but frown.

The painter is definitely not an ordinary person. During the Tang Dynasty, the painting style was more abstract, especially the painting of hands.

The murals on the head are lifelike and the details are meticulous.

It's just that the scene is too scary, locking people in pig cages, placing them underwater, or pressing people on a gate knife, which has been raised high and is ready to be lowered at any time.

There were people hanging in the air next to them, swinging back and forth.

Although it is a mural, it gives people the feeling of movement, which shows the superb level of the painter.

Lin Ran already had goosebumps on his skin.

"Is the person buried here the warden or the executioner?" Even the artistic idiot Wang Jinpeng found that the content of the picture was a little unusual, and even he felt a little uncomfortable looking at it.

Murals are not uncommon among ancient tombs.

But it basically describes the great achievements of the tomb owner during his lifetime, such as conquering barbarians and managing well.

This was the first time he had seen such a mural that purely showed the ferocious side of the tomb owner.

Except for Guan Yun, everyone present looked puzzled.

After all, Guan Yun has visited few ancient tombs. To him, it is normal for everything in the ancient tombs to be related to death.

Walking further, after experiencing the torture scene, the palace finally reached the end. In front of it was a corridor, which should be connected to the apse passage where the main tomb chamber is located.
