Tomb Raider: From the Dragon Ridge Cave

The stone door creaked heavily and slowly opened, revealing a large space.

It looked like the Hades Palace.

After all the hardships along the way, the Hades Palace finally unveiled its mystery to everyone!

The first sight of the Hades Palace.

Fatty kept grinning with expectation:"Look at this momentum, it's really extraordinary, Master Qin, do you dare to say there are no treasures?!"

The Hades Palace is the core part of the mausoleum, which is no wonder that Fatty was so excited before.

When everyone entered the Hades Palace, Hu Bayi ignored everything else and lit a candle in the southeast corner of the Hades Palace.

Because there has always been a famous rule among the tomb-grabbing lieutenants: people light candles, ghosts blow out the lights, and chickens crow and the lights go out, so don't touch the gold.

After doing this, everyone began to use wolf eyes to illuminate, looked around, and observed the Hades Palace.

The Hades Palace of this ancient tomb is really large, with an area of 200 square meters. It is a first-class Tang Dynasty royal tomb.

The architectural structure is round on the bottom and square on the bottom, with sharp edges and corners, stable and neat.

The shape of the top is like the roof of a yurt, in the shape of a dome, which is called the round sky and square earth, which is exactly the same as the cosmology of people at that time. After searching for a long time, everyone had a question mark on their faces:"Where is the coffin?!"

Hu Bayi also had an unbelievable look on his face:

"Since ancient times, the Hades Palace has been the place where the coffin of the tomb owner is placed. Whether it is a joint burial or a single burial, the tomb owner should wear the funeral clothes and sleep in the coffin, which is then covered with a coffin. Even if the body of the tomb owner cannot be placed in the coffin for some reason, the clothes, hat and shoes that the tomb owner wore during his lifetime will be placed in the coffin and buried."

"In short, there may be no body, but the coffin must be in the bedroom anyway!"

Fatty was very depressed because he didn't find the coffin. He still refused to believe it and guessed,"Could the coffin have been stolen by the previous tomb raider?"

Hu Ba shook his head,"No, the tomb raiders of all generations would never pour out the coffin when they dismantled the tomb. Besides, the space in the tomb is limited. Even if the coffin is not big, it is impossible to pour it out from the tomb."

Big Gold Teeth also wondered,"Could it be that the coffin of the tomb owner turned into water vapor and evaporated?"

"Mr. Jin, please stop joking."

Hu Bayi now felt that he was in a mess and his worldview was overturned. He couldn't figure out the reason no matter how hard he tried.

The fat man didn't believe it, and looked around the Hades Palace carefully.

However, the Hades Palace was not only without a coffin, but also without any coffin.

The ground was empty, not to mention the burial objects, there was not even a piece of extra stone.

Seeing that the fat man was busy and sweating, Qin Yan said,"Don't look for it. There is really nothing here."

""Why?" the fat man asked in confusion. It was too strange that there was no coffin in the underworld palace in a magnificent ancient tomb.

Not to mention him, even Hu Ba couldn't accept it for a while.

Qin Yan didn't beat around the bush and said it directly:

"This treasure cave in Longling was chosen by people in the Western Zhou Dynasty. A royal family member of the Western Zhou Dynasty was buried here after his death. The tomb owner, who was enshrined in a stone coffin with a human face, could have rested here for a thousand years. However, at some time before the Tang Dynasty, the tomb was completely destroyed, which is the ghost tomb we have seen before."

"Later, in the Tang Dynasty, the Feng Shui masters of the royal family also took a fancy to this hidden treasure cave in Longling, so they opened a mountain and built a tomb for an important member of the royal family.

However, when the tomb was halfway built, they found that this hidden cave had been used by someone, so the people in charge of the tomb construction fabricated some fictitious things to deceive the emperor, so that the emperor had to pay to build a new mausoleum somewhere else.

"

After listening to Qin Yan's analysis, everyone was a little skeptical. After all, all this was just Qin Yan's guess and association.

Especially the fat man.

Because he had made a bet with Qin Yan before, he refused to believe it now, and he had to turn the ancient tomb upside down.

Qin Yan smiled slightly:"Fatty, you don't believe it, right? I bet that the murals around the Hades Palace are unfinished, the stone frames are empty, and even the front hall inside is half-built."

"I don't believe it!"

The fat man was looking forward to winning against Qin Yan once, so he was not willing to admit defeat easily. He quickly packed up and said,"Let's go, let's go and see the places that Master Qin mentioned. Fatty, I don't believe it!"

Everyone came to the six stone shelves in front of the Hades Palace, and they all opened their mouths slightly in surprise.

These stone shelves were indeed empty, with nothing on them.

Big Gold Teeth said in surprise,"This is where the six kinds of jades, Cong, Gui, Zhang, Bi, Hu, and Huang, are placed for offering sacrifices to the six parties. Only members of the royal family have the treatment, and Master Qin was right!"

When several people were surprised, they heard Shirley Yang shouting in surprise,"Come and see, these murals are indeed half painted!"

The fat man's face suddenly turned as black as the bottom of a pot. He followed everyone to the murals.

There were only some basic murals on the four walls of the Hades Palace, all in line drawing, without any color. There were paintings of the sun, moon and stars, and the main ones were thirteen palace maids.

Some of these palace maids held brocade boxes, some held jade pots, and some held musical instruments.

The palace maids were all fat, showing a typical picture scroll of court life in the Tang Dynasty.
