Dream of Tomb Raiders Notes

Chapter 134

Looking at the figure on the throne from a distance, it is not very clear, is it the corpse of Queen Mother Xi?Wu Xie had experienced this kind of thing a lot, and felt that this place was full of evil spirits, so he immediately asked people to prepare black donkey hooves.

The fat man said, "It can't be the Queen Mother of the West. If she dies, she'll either be buried or lie in a coffin. There's no reason to sit. I think it might be a stone figure."

Chen Wenjin said: "It is absolutely impossible to be a stone figure. There are no human figurines here. We have never seen a single figurine during our journey. This place is so secret, it is the holy place of the Queen Mother of the West. This figure must be very important here, so be careful. "

The fat man said: "It's a pity that Pan Zi's gun is destroyed, otherwise at this distance, if I shot it in the head, it would be a man or a ghost."

Wu Xiexin said, if it's a ghost, you can't kill it, but if it's a human, you'd be a murderer.

But in any case, they must go, because that place is the only place where the meteorite can be approached.

There will definitely be no mechanism here, because there is no condition for building a mechanism at all, the stone steps are smashed out very crudely, the bronze lamp holders on both sides that might have been used for lighting are now completely rusted and turned into decorations, the fat man wants to put one in his backpack In the end, it shattered when touched.

Slowly stepping on the stone steps to get out of the water, I felt as if my body was filled with lead.After resting for a while, they walked up to the altar cautiously with their black donkey hooves in their hands.There were so many people who were courageous, and there was almost no hesitation. The miner's lights moved towards the figure, and sure enough, they saw a person sitting on the throne.

When I got closer, I found that it was a female corpse sitting on a throne.

This female corpse was wearing a very cumbersome crown. If it weren't for the hair bun, it would have been impossible to distinguish between men and women. She was wearing a gold silk skirt and gown covered with jade pieces.The whole female corpse sat still, lifelike.

The face of the female corpse turned blue, and upon closer inspection, it was discovered that the corpse's face was covered with a layer of blue glue similar to lime, and then carefully sculpted.The female corpse did not reveal a trace of flesh and blood, and it was unknown how well the corpse was preserved in the clothes.Looking at it this way, it seems that the clay sculpture Bodhisattva in the temple looks extremely gloomy under the miner's lamp.

Behind the female corpse stood two guards, wearing armor from the Western Regions.The two corpses were obviously not as well protected as the female corpse. It could be seen that the lime on the face had peeled off, revealing the rotten bones inside.Because the armor is black, it is made of the same material as Yuyong, they didn't see it just now.

The three ancient corpses were all standing or sitting upright, obviously undergoing special treatment.

"Could this be the Queen Mother of the West?" the fat man asked softly.

Wu Xie nodded: "Look at the posture. I didn't expect her to be here. The ancients must have disposed of her body and placed it here."

Mengli listened to the conversation between the two without commenting.

When the fat man saw those pieces of jade, his eyes lit up, and he said: "Finally, I saw some good things for the fat man. It turns out that these women are wearing them. Women are women, and they are reluctant to part with these pieces when they are dying." Some foundation."

As soon as Wu Xie heard it, he immediately grabbed him before he moved.

The little brother told them not to get close. He pointed to the pattern carved on the ground around the throne. It was a bird with a big head and a small body. The pattern showed a disc surrounding the throne in the center. He touched the part of the disc with his oddly long fingers. Edge said: "There is a small gap, there may be a balance mechanism, don't get close to her."

They breathed a sigh of relief, and then remembered to look up, and saw that the surface of the meteorite was almost on top of their Tianling Cap, and they could touch it with just a jump.

There are several deep holes on the top of their heads. When I shine them in, I find that those holes lead directly to the interior of the meteorite. The bottom is not deep, and the walls of the holes are very smooth.

What is Wang Zanghai looking for this thing for?If according to what Wen Jin said, he came to find the secret of longevity, then what does this meteorite have to do with longevity?

Wu Xie looked up and looked carefully, and suddenly found a strange phenomenon.

Why is the material of this meteorite so similar to jade figurines?This color, this luster, seems to be the same material - Wu Xie jumped up and touched it, and found that the meteorite is warm and not cold at all, it really looks like jade.

Wu Xie blinked blankly, isn't this a piece of "meteor jade"?

There is a kind of gemstone in this world called "meteorite", which is a special kind of meteorite. Because the material feels very similar to jade, it was regarded as jade and was extremely precious in ancient times.However, the color of this meteorite is much darker than that of meteorite. Could it be a piece of rare meteorite containing special ingredients?And those jade figurines are made of this kind of meteorite?

If it is true, this thing is worth a lot of money.With such a large piece, even if they sell it by the catty, they will make a fortune.

When Wu Xie said his thoughts, everyone felt that it made sense.

"It seems that the formation of those blood corpses has a deep relationship with this meteorite." Chen Wenjin said, "The ancient Queen Mother of the West discovered this power and used meteorites to make those jade figurines."

Wu Xie's thoughts suddenly dispersed, and he thought of one thing: "You said that the golden jade clothes that were popular since the Han Dynasty are said to be able to prevent corpses from decomposing for thousands of years. The jade is rotten, obviously this kind of legend is unscientific. So where did this kind of legend come from? At first, maybe it was because those alchemists looked up some ancient books and found out about The description of the corpse, but I don’t know that this jade is different from ordinary jade.”

"Could it be the Silk Script of the Warring States Period!" the fat man said, "You mean, the golden jade clothes in the Han Dynasty were made by imitating the jade figurines written on the Silk Script of the Warring States Period?"

"It's possible." Wu Xie nodded and said, "Then, Wang Zanghai discovered this flaw, so he started looking for the real materials for making this kind of jade figurines in ancient books."

All of a sudden, Wu Xie felt that the things in his mind became clear. "Damn, if this is the case, then Wang Zanghai's tomb robbery activities are all looking for this meteorite? In the end, he finally discovered the location of the meteorite, so he brought people here?"

"No." Chen Wenjin was not as excited as Wu Xie. "According to what you said, since he's here, he should have succeeded, but we didn't see the jade figurines in the underwater tomb. The jade figurines should not be Wang Zanghai's target."

"Then what is his goal?" Wu Xie felt that his thoughts were very reasonable.

Chen Wenjin looked at the holes in the meteorites and said to them, "I don't know, but I have a feeling that this target is inside these holes."

The tone of Chen Wenjin's words was very mysterious, and they were all taken aback by her words, feeling a little nervous.Looking up at those holes, I thought what could be inside?

After watching for a while, she suddenly began to pull out the rope in the backpack, and said to Wu Xie, "I want to go in and have a look."

As soon as Wu Xie heard how this would work, he wanted to stop it, but was stopped by his younger brother. He looked at him and realized what he meant: "We have choices, but Wen Jin has no choice. There is nothing to say. significance."

Wu Xie let out a long sigh, with a sense of powerlessness, people only feel small when they can't help the people they want to help.He always thought that this kind of helplessness could only be found in TV dramas, but he didn't expect that he would encounter it in reality, and felt really uncomfortable.

Chen Wenjin moved very neatly, and immediately started to prepare, asked the little brother to help her connect the rope, and used a miner's lamp to illuminate the openings of the holes, and prepared to choose one to go in.

Wu Xie originally wanted to find someone to replace her, but found that it was impossible. Although each of the holes was the size of a tar barrel, the angle of the holes was almost vertical. To get in, one had to use the knees or soles of the feet to push the hole wall upwards.

The men were too tall, and they couldn't fully bend their legs after entering, and they could hardly use force, let alone the fat man, who might get stuck if the diameter of the hole inside became smaller.

But when he looked at Mengli, she shook her head.

No choice but to let Chen Wenjin go.

Wu Xie was a little worried, but seeing Chen Wenjin's athletic appearance, he also knew that this worry was meaningless.On one side, Chen Wenjin tied a noose around her waist, and was carried by the fat man on her shoulders. She leaned forward into the hole, and then kicked the fat man hard, and she went in.

Wu Xie shouted "Be careful", she responded and looked down at him.Wu Xie noticed that her face was a little strange, and she had an indescribable feeling, then she smiled at him, and began to crawl deep.

While putting the rope, they watched her gradually go up into the hole. The movement was very slow, and it was obviously very difficult. It took half an hour to watch her miner's light disappear, and the distance they entered was estimated to be less than 50 meters.

Looking at the whole process, Wu Xie felt creepy. This is the feeling of climbing a hole, but how deep is this hole? There is at least a distance of two or 300 meters to reach the deepest point. The feeling of crawling into someone else's esophagus will definitely not be pleasant. , not to mention that when climbing halfway, there will be situations where the front and rear cannot be reached.

He looked up at the entrance of the cave for more than ten minutes, and his neck couldn't take it anymore. Wu Xie couldn't bear to look any more, so he sat down to rest like the third uncle's guys, took off his clothes and wiped his body with shochu to keep out the cold.The rope was kept going in, and every ten meters, the fat man would check with Chen Wenjin inside and send a few signals.

The atmosphere was frozen, they didn't speak, and they didn't know what to say. On the one hand, the female corpse behind them was creepy, and on the other hand, they were worried about Chen Wenjin's safety.

After waiting for about an hour, he suddenly heard the fat man say "hmm", Wu Xie immediately stood up and asked what was going on, the fat man said, "The elder sister didn't respond."

They leaned over and saw that the fat man was pulling the rope. After a few pulls, the rope was torn off a little, but no one pulled the rope back.

Wu Xie's mind tightened, wondering if something had happened, and signaled the fat man to try again.

The fat man pulled again, but the rope was still pulled down, and his brows furrowed, "No, the rope is very light, as if there is no one tied to it."

When the little brother heard this, his expression changed, and he immediately said to the fat man, "Pull her out!"

The fat man immediately exerted his strength and pulled the rope quickly.Wu Xie looked at his pulling strength and realized something was wrong. There was no need to exert any force at all. The rope was pulled out by him like flowing water. When it was pulled to the vertical section, the rope became a ball and fell out of the hole. It hit Wu Xie and entangled him inside.

Wu Xie broke free from the rope and picked up the end to have a look, and found that there was no sign of a cut, the rope was untied by herself.

Several people looked at each other, Wu Xie suddenly had a very bad feeling in his heart, Chen Wenjin untied the rope by himself?

The little brother's face was serious, he pressed the fat man's shoulders, and stepped on the fat man's back with his whole body, and then jumped into the hole, the movement was so fast that there was no way to stop it.

The fat man yelled, "Rope! Take the rope!"

He didn't pay any attention, and shrank back in after a few strokes.

Wu Xie saw that he couldn't do without a rope, and immediately called out to the fat man, "Squat down."

The fat man was furious: "His mother thinks I'm a groom."

Wu Xie ignored him, and climbed crookedly against his body. He supported him, and Wu Xie jumped up with a kick, but he didn't have enough strength. I also lifted it up, but it slid down within a few seconds and fell directly on the fat man.It was still the same again, and I suddenly realized that my physique would definitely not allow me to enter.

Wu Xie stood up and rubbed the painful place, and when he looked up, he saw the little brother struggling to move forward in the hole.He is too tall, unable to use his knees, so he can only take small steps, which consumes a lot of energy.

Wu Xie suddenly had an illusion, whether this meteorite is alive, these holes are the traps for it to eat, and the little brother is throwing himself into the trap.

He turned his head and saw Mengli staring at the hole with a gloomy expression, and then saw her jumping in.

Wu Xie's pupils shrank slightly, and he shouted, "Mengli!"

She ignored him and just moved forward.

Wu Xie's mind was so confused that he couldn't think anymore.He just looked up and watched the little brother and Mengli climb up, and after an unknown amount of time, the little brother and Mengli also completely disappeared into the depths of the hole.

Wu Xie couldn't sit down anymore, and insisted on standing at the entrance of the cave and looking up, hoping to see the light return, and then the three of them would come back safely.

Time passed by, Wu Xie waited anxiously, from anxiety to calmness, from calmness to numbness, from numbness to a blank mind.

Ten hours later, nothing happened, neither brother nor Mengli came back, neither did Chen Wenjin, and there was no sound in the cave.These three people seemed to be taken to another world by these holes.

I will arrive in another world, see the future of "me", let me no longer hesitate... ——Meng Li
