Live expedition from tomb raiding

After struggling for a while, they realized that the palace must be buried under the yellow sand. If they searched on foot like this, even if they broke their legs, they might not be able to find anything.

The tallest building in the ancient city today is the leaning black tower that can be seen at a glance.

Professor Chen proposed to enter the black tower and see if he could find the entrance to the palace from a high place.

"The royal palace here may have been built underground," Professor Chen said.

Fatty is very eager to find the palace, and has already told Hu Bayi about the idea, so Hu Bayi is also looking forward to it.

Ding Ze is fine, let's take a look around, don't be in a hurry, anyway, according to the plot, there won't be any danger for the time being.

Soon, a group of people came to the black tower.

The tower is six stories high, and it looks very magnificent in this ancient city. Moreover, on the top of the black tower, there is a rather weird and frightening black olive-shaped stone ball.

Ding Ze looked up, "This tower seems to be made of rocks from that sacred mountain. And, don't you think that the ball on it looks like an eye?"

The fat man heard it, blinked his eyes, and pondered for a while, "I'm going, it really looks like... It feels a little sick. What do you want to do by erecting such a tall tower with an eye on the top? Watch everyone ?"

Professor Chen shook his head and denied this statement, "According to my research on ghost cave culture, eyes are their totems, which represent their worship of eyes. Let's go in and have a look."

Enter the stone tower.

On the inner wall of the stone pagoda, densely packed strange ghost cave characters are engraved. In addition, there is a black stone sheep statue in the stone pagoda on the first floor.

Everyone watched for a while before entering the second floor.The picture on the second floor is similar, with the same dense text, but the statue has become a half-kneeling stone elephant about the size of an adult.

Entering the third floor, there was a little surprise... because the stone statue on the third floor, which they had seen before, was the stone statue with giant pupils found in the ruins of the unnamed ancient city.

Seeing this stone statue with giant pupils, the audience who had followed all the way to the present in the live broadcast room immediately chattered excitedly.

Ding Ze didn't pay attention, just quietly listening to Professor Chen's narration.

"I speculate that this black tower should be used to show the status of the ghost cave clan. The stone statues on each floor represent different levels. The first floor is for livestock. If I guessed correctly, there should be another floor underground, where hell is placed. The hungry ghosts. The second layer is ordinary people, including all the barbarians in the Western Regions. Their status is only higher than that of cattle and sheep, and they are equivalent to slaves. The third layer is the statue of this giant pupil. The stone ball on the top of the tower is an eye. The shape of the stone man with giant pupils and the totem of the eyes represent the worship of the eyes by this nation, let's go up and see what has a higher status in Jingjue Kingdom."

When the fat man heard this, he immediately yelled, "Isn't it hard to guess? It must be the statue of Queen Jingjue."

The fat man was wrong, standing on the fourth floor, a little embarrassed, not speaking.

Ding Ze smiled at him, but didn't say anything.

The statue on the fourth floor has a snake body and a human head, with thick limbs, the hind limbs are in the shape of a beast, the forelimbs are in the shape of a human, holding a sharp sword and shield, and the head is a male face with a ferocious face and staring eyes. Glaring golden steel, the stone statue also has a black ball on the back of its head, just like the strange snake in Mount Zagrama.

When Professor Chen saw it, he was amazed, "This is the patron saint of the kingdom, but the patron saint is only on the fourth floor. The status of this queen is higher than that of a god. This is really deified too much."

Ding Ze listened quietly. He knew all these contents, but this was needed for the development of the plot. It can be understood that it was mainly for the audience in the live broadcast room, so that the audience could have a deeper understanding of all this.

In fact, if he didn't know the plot, he would definitely listen to Professor Chen's words very seriously.

Professor Chen is anxious to go to the fifth floor to have a look.

The fat man raised his foot and walked anxiously. After taking two steps, he noticed that Ding Ze hadn't moved. "Old Ding? What's wrong?"

Ding Ze shook his head when he heard it, "It's okay, I was just thinking about a question, this snake-like thing with a human head and a strange snake is the patron saint of the kingdom..."

The fat man was anxious to go up, "So?"

"So, comparing the two strange snakes we met in the mountain crevice with this statue, don't you think they look alike?"

Seeing that the two of them didn't go up, Hu Bayi hurried back, just in time to hear this, "I found out just now, they are very similar, old Ding, what do you mean?"

"What I mean is that most ethnic groups have the thing of patron saint, some are fictitious, some are real... As far as this ancient city is concerned, the two strange snakes we encountered are indeed real. exist."

Ding Ze paused, and then said, "It shouldn't be a coincidence between the two...It is very possible that this patron saint was created based on that kind of strange snake... Mythology of the strange snake, and a different head, Added limbs, equipped with weapons..."

The fat man became more and more confused as he listened, "No, Lao Ding, what kind of charades are you playing, what exactly do you want to say?"

It was not Ding Ze who answered this question, but Hu Bayi.

Hu Bayi obviously had to be smarter, and when he came to his senses, he said in surprise, "Old Ding, you mean that there might be many strange snakes like that in this ancient city?"

Ding Ze nodded, "If there are only a few, it is almost impossible to be regarded as a patron saint... Since it is a patron saint, its duty should be to protect this ancient city... It takes a lot of strange snakes, and, Maybe we need a big guy."

The fat man finally understood, and he was a little startled, "Eh, even if there was one, he would have starved to death long ago. This ancient city has been buried under the yellow sand for so many years..."

There will be no answer to this question.

Ding Ze just made up a mess, fooling the audience in the live broadcast room, and fooling Fatty and Hu Bayi by the way.

"I hope so, otherwise if we enter the snake's den, the situation will be very bad."

----------------

When I came to the fifth floor, I saw that Professor Chen and others were all in a daze.

Hu Bayi and Fatty quickly glanced at the situation on the fifth floor, and both immediately had the same blank expression.

The sand sculpture audience in the live broadcast room obviously did the same.

"Why nothing?"

"Where's the Queen of Essence?"

"It will really whet your appetite, anchor, don't be fooled, hurry up to the sixth floor."

Everyone moved again and came to the sixth floor.

Finally, the statue of the legendary Jingjue Queen appeared.

I saw that at the very center of the sixth floor stood a rather majestic black throne.

On the throne, sat a statue of a woman dressed in gorgeous clothes, but her face was intentionally carved with a veil covering her appearance.

"What is this about? Isn't it rumored that this queen is beautiful? How can you make a statue without showing her face?" The fat man cursed, "In my opinion, she must be an ugly monster."

Hu Bayi heard, "Fatty, shut up quickly, and be careful that she jumps up and bites you to death! Have you never heard that women don't like being called ugly? If you say she is ugly, she will definitely be anxious with you!"

Fatty: "????? Women have too many things to do!"

As soon as this word comes out.

Swish.

Xue Liyang and Ye Yixin turned their heads together and glared at the fat man instinctively.

The fat man moved his mouth when he realized that he was still wise and didn't say anything. He obediently turned his head and pretended to look to the side.

Seeing this scene, Ding Ze couldn't hold back, he laughed and shook his head, he heard the fat man say, 'I'm a good man and don't fight with women! '
