Beipai Tomb Raiders Notes

Chapter 442 The Catacombs

In the tomb passage, you can hear needles in silence,

A few beams of flashlights shone on the wall, showing a huge figure, somewhat unreal.

No one spoke because silence was needed now.

On the ground, an unopened can of beer rolled slowly forward, and finally, it hit the wall at the corner of the tomb passage and stopped.

Brother Yu went to pick it up, rolled the can back, and finally rolled it to the feet of Bean Sprouts.

I frowned and listened as the cans rolled.

I shook my head after hearing this, indicating that this area is normal, and I will try another place.

Bean Sprout said, "Fengzi, does this work? No matter how I hear it, it sounds the same."

"Yazai, it's different, there are subtle differences," he explained in a condensed voice, "Yunfeng is very talented, and there are no more than seven people in our northern faction who can do this."

Among the unique skills of the Northern School, there is a method called "echolocation", which is similar in nature to the legendary "listening to thunder". People without talent will never be able to learn it in their lifetime, but I mastered it when I was 18 years old.

Five meters is considered a distance, and we kept groping and searching in the ancient tomb.

"and many more!"

In the zigzag-shaped tomb passage, about seven meters away, the sound I heard was a bit strange.

"do it again."

The cans rolled on the ground again.

"Again!" I yelled, frowning.

Brother Yu did it again.

I took a deep breath and said, "Hold your head, something is wrong with the echo! It's right here! There must be a problem!"

Put the head immediately to delineate the area and let the hands.

The tomb passage is paved with bluestone strips. We used a crowbar to pry out all the bluestone strips in this area. At this time, the soil layer was exposed, and then we found a shovel to dig down.

"Damn! There's something!"

Not long after digging, Bean Sprouts yelled first.

We dug up a large hard slate, very thick!The whole slab is embedded in the soil!

I tried it, but I couldn't pry it at all, the stone slab was too heavy!

He raised his head and said loudly, "You and Wen Bin, Yazi, pry a corner! Yunfeng! You are ready to put stones on!"

"Damn... get up... get up for me!"

Bean Sprout half-stretched his body and pressed it on the crowbar, his face was flushed red!I have used all my milking power, and Brother Yu looks similar.

A corner of the huge stone slab was slowly pried up?With quick eyes and quick hands, I quickly placed the stone under it.

The two corners were quickly padded up, everyone lifted their heads together, and turned the stone slab over.

With a muffled bang!

The big stone slab was turned aside by our joint efforts!At this time, a bottomless black hole appeared on the ground.

I lay down on the side and took a photo inside with a strong flashlight.

Mysterious, dark, deep.

The bright flashlight couldn't reach the bottom at all, and the darkness swallowed up all the surrounding light.

Brother Yu threw a stone, and it took a long time before he heard a slight echo.

I panicked and said: "It's so deep! Hold your head! This... this is at least tens of meters deep! It seems to be a naturally formed burrow!"

Bean Sprout said excitedly: "You don't care, Fengzi! I'll come! I'll go first! Maybe all the treasures are hidden below!"

Brother Yu said don't be impulsive!So deep, there may be a lack of oxygen underneath!Let's wait and see.

It's a blessing, not a curse. It's a disaster that can't be avoided. If you don't go down, you don't know what's underneath!After discussing it, we still unanimously decided to go and have a look.

We got all the rope we could and tied it together!Throw two crowbars into the ground in a cross shape!Tighten the rope to the crowbar.

In a group of two, Bean Sprout and I decided to go down first to find out the situation. It would be too risky to go down alone. At least two people can take care of each other.

After checking the equipment, Bean Sprout and I grabbed the rope and began to climb down. Brother Yu put his head on it and used a flashlight to help us illuminate.

When descending to a depth of more than 20 meters, Bean Sprout suddenly shouted: "Look, Fengzi! What is this!"

I have a look!I saw a few worms covered with feet crawling slowly on the wall, like a millipede or a centipede.

But these worms are white, where are the white centipedes?It is simply an unknown creature. I still don’t know what this thing is called, so let’s call it the white centipede.

I told Bean Sprouts not to touch these bugs, they were poisonous if they were not in order, but Bean Sprouts didn't listen to me. He stepped on the wall with both feet, grabbed the rope with his left hand, and drew a knife from his waist with his right hand, and cut a white centipede into two pieces.

Later, Bean Sprouts happily let me watch, but at this moment!On the bean sprout knife, the white centipede, which was only half left, suddenly moved, and it crawled very fast, in the blink of an eye!Just slipped into Bean Sprout's sleeve along his wrist!

Bean sprouts yell!Suddenly the rope dangled!He shook his arms desperately!

"coat!"

"Fuck! Take off your coat!" I shouted anxiously while watching.

Bean Sprout quickly took off his coat and threw it away. At this moment, I saw the half white centipede lying on the back collar of Bean Sprout's sweater, and I didn't know whether it was dead or alive.I told him not to move!Then I grabbed the rope and swung it over, knocking the thing out.

Bean Sprout was sweating profusely, panting, "Fengzi! I feel like I've been bitten! What should I do, isn't this thing poisonous?"

I cursed angrily: "You deserve it! Who made you move around! I'm not a biologist! How the hell would I know if it's poisonous or not!"

"Ask me what to do! What if it's poisonous! Fuck it, follow your local customs!"

After hearing what I said, Bean Sprouts had a long face.

Encountering this sudden situation, Bean Sprout was a lot more honest, and continued to slide down. During the period, he saw several identical white centipedes, and Bean Sprout didn't dare to touch it again.

It took four to 10 minutes to get down to the bottom. If it was deeper, then our rope was not long enough.

When I got down, I straightened my headlamp and looked around.

The headlights and flashlights dispel the darkness inch by inch, all of a sudden!I see coffins!It was a huge granite sarcophagus!

On the left and right sides of the sarcophagus, there are two hideous painted humanoid stone sculptures!The size is as big as the terracotta army!When the flashlight shines on the face of the stone carving, it feels like the eyes are protruding!Fierce!very scary!

After hundreds of years, the paintings on the stone carvings are still very bright, especially the cinnabar red, which is exactly the same color as human blood!

This kind of large stone sculpture standing beside the coffin is very rare!This is not an ordinary tomb-suppressing beast. Tomb-suppressing beasts are usually placed at the door or in the tomb passage. This kind of painted one is called "tomb-suppressing spirit"!

It can be seen occasionally in the Shinto of some large underground palaces in the Tang Dynasty. It is said that there are 160 tomb-suppressing spirits in the Qianling Mausoleum of Empress Wu Zetian!They were all sealed in clay figurines with living people and fired!Because no one went to Qianling to see it, so I don't know whether it is true or not.

Let alone the huge sarcophagus in front of me!Just looking at these two tomb-suppressing spirits makes me shudder!I doubt it was made of living people.

This is a national treasure, if it can be shipped out, it will definitely be sold for a sky-high price!I have been in the industry for more than five years, and this is the first time I have seen a complete painted large-scale tomb-suppressing spirit. From this, it is not difficult to judge how rare this thing is.

Bean Sprouts looked dumbfounded, and he was about to pass after he realized it. I stopped him and told him not to act rashly.

After I finished speaking, I took out my mobile phone and took a few photos of the painted town tomb spirit, and I planned to send them to the buyer in the future.

After waiting for a long time, Ba Tou and Brother Yu came down. Rao is a well-informed Tou, and he was also very excited after seeing everything in front of him.

Needless to say, the Lord lying in the sarcophagus is either rich or noble.

With an [-]% probability, it is Lu Wende, a general of the Southern Song Dynasty!
