The Chosen System: Counterattack with Husband
Chapter 720 Do you feel this place is... familiar?
After the more than 30 people in the treasure hunting team changed their clothes and rearranged themselves, Xu Yiyu winked at Tianlin who was standing at the end of the team, then looked at Jiu and Gu Yue beside him, and took out his flashlight and baton for self-defense.
She took a deep breath and without hesitation, stepped into the cave first.
The lighting conditions at the entrance were sufficient for seeing things. Xu Yiyu avoided the gravel under his feet and walked forward a few meters. He first looked at the surrounding environment in the dark with his excellent night vision ability, and then turned on the high-intensity flashlight in his hand with a little peace of mind.
The deep darkness just now was penetrated by this beam of light, allowing the treasure hunting team members who followed Xu Yiyu in from the cave entrance to finally see the appearance of the passage clearly.
It is no exaggeration to say that if people did not know that there might be traces of the imperial seal somewhere here, most people would definitely think that this was a corridor in a tomb.
The five people from Kyoto University, who had seen several tomb passages before, opened their eyes wide and looked at the passage in front of them in extreme shock.
——The sloping corridor is paved with countless huge and heavy stone slabs, forming a stone road about four meters wide. The top of the corridor is roughly an arch with a smooth arc, also built with stone slabs and irregularly shaped bricks and stones, and is a full three meters high.
The walls on both sides of the corridor are also built with square stones, and the size of each stone is almost invisible to the naked eye.
What shocked everyone the most was not the corridor that looked very much like the tomb of an emperor in Chinese history, but the patterns carved on the left and right side walls of the corridor.
Some mythical beasts or animals that once only appeared in legends were carved by craftsmen on the stone surface into exquisite and delicate yet domineering appearances. As the corridor gradually sank, the patterns on both sides of the corridor changed from mythical beasts and animals to flowers, birds, fish and insects. Xu Yiyu even saw a picture of human life in an unknown era on a stone carving.
The shock in the eyes of the five people from Jingda University gradually deepened as the corridor sank. Everyone walked cautiously down the corridor for dozens of meters, but still had not reached the end of the corridor.
Zhao Dian looked back at Ming Hong and whispered, "Boss, do you think so too?"
Minghong nodded, but his eyes did not move away from these exquisite and majestic stone carvings.
Although there is no sacred road that is usually found in the tombs of ancient emperors, and no stone statues carved into the appearance of civil and military officials or auspicious beasts on both sides of the sacred road, there is no antechamber or burial objects in the tombs that are regulated by the emperors along the way...
But the appearance of this corridor really looks like the tomb passage leading to the underground palace in front of an emperor's tomb.
Xu Yiyu was also a person with a deep interest in history. When he saw so many elements that were clearly from ancient China in the depths of the Ar Mountains, tens of thousands of kilometers away from China, he suddenly felt an extremely unreal feeling in his heart.
Jiu, who revisited his old place, did not spend too much time looking at the stone carvings on both sides of the corridor. He just took a quick glance and then turned his attention to the expressions on the faces of his teammates.
Their expressions were exactly the same as when I first came here.
"I'm really curious now. Which big shot built this place? And how did he transport these huge stones and craftsmen to the deep mountains? And how did he make the Yidali official forces unaware of it?"
Xu Yiyu murmured to herself, the shock she felt from the passage before her was obviously far more than that, but just revealing such a small tip of the iceberg was enough for her to digest for a long time.
The official forces of Yidali must have never discovered this place in the past years.
Because even if only this corridor was discovered, it would be impossible for the official level to not leak any information at all.
Hearing Xu Yiyu's question, Minghong also felt a little confused.
Judging from the length and depth of this corridor alone, the amount of work done at the time of its construction could not have been small, not to mention the very likely existence of an underground palace or tomb deeper inside. Whether in terms of stone materials, labor or construction difficulty, it would definitely not be a common occurrence in the archaeological world.
Rather than saying that the other party built a secret place to hide the imperial seal, it would be more accurate to say that they built a scaled-down version of a complete mausoleum according to imperial regulations.
Judging from the scale of this place, deeper inside might be not only the imperial seal, but also a real tomb containing the remains of some important figure.
More than 30 people walked slowly forward step by step along the corridor. The ground gradually sank, but the oxygen concentration did not decrease at all. Everyone could breathe normally in the corridor, and no one felt suffocated.
However, compared to the temperature at the entrance of the cave, the coldness became more and more obvious as the depth of the tunnel gradually increased.
"Tongzi, can you help scan the structure here?"
"Host, wait a moment. Let me try."
Xu Cheng's get-rich-quick system tried to use the scanning function in the corridor, but the scanning ray was bounced back directly in the next second.
The Get Rich System only felt that its source data was disrupted for a few seconds by this rebound, and it finally returned to normal after its efforts to correct it.
"Host, the full picture of this place... I can't scan it."
The Get Rich System, having suffered a loss, did not dare to try to scan again, but chose to directly feedback the results to the host Xu Cheng.
Although his system did not specify it, Xu Cheng had just briefly felt a strange discomfort in his body.
"Benjia, my system can't scan here."
"This place should be covered by China's destiny. It is not something it can interfere with. Please let it have a good rest."
Xu Yiyu and Xu Cheng communicated with each other through lip movements, while also feeling the flow of air around them.
Yes, although it was so faint that it was almost imperceptible, but in this corridor, she also found a few wisps of white mist similar to the one that appeared in Bujingju.
Such white fog actually appeared in the territory of Yidali. It seems that the person who built this place is really not simple...
Several people from the martial arts group were interspersed among the team in an orderly manner, ensuring that everyone was within their sight and taking every step with extreme caution.
After Jiu led the team members behind him for a while, they finally stopped at a stone gate whose carvings looked very familiar to Xu Yiyu.
Xu Yiyu shone the high-intensity flashlight towards the inside of the door, but the darkness seemed to swallow up the entire beam of light, and it was impossible to illuminate even a single object.
Faced with this corridor that became more and more mysterious as it went deeper, Xu Yiyu glanced at Jiu who was beside him and motioned for him to stop, hoping to get an answer from him.
"If the road ahead is relatively safe, then the road behind this stone gate is extremely dangerous. Even if you take a wrong step, you may lose your life."
Jiu did not keep the suspense and explained the situation behind the stone gate to everyone in the treasure hunting team.
It was dark inside the wide-open stone door. Xu Yiyu used all his eyesight to look inside, but was surprised to find that even with his eyesight that was much better than that of ordinary people, he could not see through the darkness.
The divination that Gu Yue had just cast at the door most likely pointed to the road behind this stone door.
This stone gate that looks like a door and also like a memorial archway stands quietly in place, cold and silent.
Xu Yiyu suddenly looked up at the top of the stone gate, as if he had noticed something.
When her eyes fell on the four stone bricks with something carved on them just above the stone gate, a flash of enlightenment suddenly came to her mind.
The stone bricks located in the four directions were originally carved with the four sacred beasts from ancient Chinese legends.
Green Dragon, White Tiger, Suzaku, Xuanwu.
But now, the Azure Dragon is missing its eyes, the White Tiger is missing its fangs, the Vermillion Bird is missing its wings, and the Black Tortoise is missing its four legs.
——No matter how you look at it, this seems like a reminder from the owner of this place to those who come later.
