Sacrifice of Grave Robbers

Except for a few cronies, most of the people who followed Minister You and Ling Yun were hired fighters. These people have far more experience with things in the tomb than the archaeological team, so even if there are so many situations, Still very calm.

However, when they stood on the bridge and saw the slowly moving flashlight, their expressions changed.In the past, no matter how dangerous the situation was, even if they encountered zongzi, they would inevitably suffer heavy losses, and they knew how to deal with it.But now, quietly, it seems that there is nothing, what exactly are they facing?

A guy raised his hand and shot a few times at the wolf-eye flashlight on the rock wall, and then everyone heard the soft sound of bullets hitting the rock wall and the sound of falling.Moreover, anyone who is careful will find that those shots were fired around the flashlight, that is to say, there is really no one around the flashlight, and it is suspended there by itself.

No matter when, guns have always been the most secure thing, but this time it brings people to a chilling conclusion.

The quiet space brought even greater pressure and fear, and everyone's faces turned green.

At this moment, a rumbling sound suddenly sounded in Rongshui Cave.

After hearing this, Chen Yu yelled a bad word and ran to the door.In the end, it was still a step slower, and the stone gate had been completely closed.Chen Yu frowned and fumbled frantically. The sweat on his forehead grew more and more, and finally his movements gradually slowed down.

Turning around dejectedly, seeing the people looking at him anxiously, Chen Yu shook his head with difficulty. He had already tried, and this stone door must never be opened from the inside.

Ma Wenqing stared, and began to lose his temper, cursing, "Damn it, who is so wicked, shut the door!"

A young man trembled and said, "It's broken, we're trapped inside... Now, what should we do now?!"

Even Du Gang was a little at a loss, and murmured: "Yes, we must return to the ship in a few days, probably before long, this island will be submerged again."

Pu Qing, who had been shaking all the time, seemed to be unable to take it anymore, and cried out in a low voice. Now she is staying in the innermost part of the team, being taken care of by two other female archaeologists.

"There is a way, explosives! We brought explosives in." At this time, a surprised voice said.

"That's right, what are we afraid of? The big deal is that it will blow up! We living beings, can we still be trapped to death in the tombs of the ancients?"

"Facts have proved that the ancients were indeed much wiser than you. No amount of explosives is useless. If you blow up the hole and collapse the bridge at the same time, we don't have to go out at all." Minister You rolled his eyes, The moment the door closed, he was already calculating the way out.Then they found that they had no way back except to move forward.However, no one knows whether there is a way out ahead, whether it leads to death or hope.

The people gathered in the middle of the bridge fell silent again, and the stone bridge suddenly became even more dead silent.Inside the huge water-karst cave, it was so dark that the edge could not be seen. People were too scared to move because of the fear in their hearts.

"Look at that flashlight." Feng Han's calm voice sounded.

Feng Han's voice seemed to bring hope in a desperate situation, everyone felt refreshed, and looked up at the weird flashlight that everyone had been trying to avoid since the door was closed.

"It seems to want us to see something on the rock wall." Feng Han continued.

Chen Yu resisted the chill all over his body, and raised his head tremblingly. The flashlight was still moving slowly on the rock wall. When he looked carefully, he found that the rock wall where the light passed was not smooth.

The protruding stones of almost the same size, like undulating ripples, are definitely traces of artificial carving.

Chen Yu squinted his eyes for a long time, and when he saw a sharp claw like a hook, he realized that it was not ripples, but scales.Some kind of animal is carved on the rock wall, and according to the erratic range and trajectory of the flashlight, the animal relief is very huge.

"My God, that thing, how that thing was engraved on it is simply unbelievable." Du Gang said in a daze.

At this moment, the flashlight flashed over the animal's head, and the huge eyes seemed to be watching the bridge with a fierce light.

"That's a relief of a green dragon grabbing a pearl, it's a green dragon! The wisdom of the ancient working people is incomparably great, such a big green dragon relief..." Professor An said in a trembling voice, his fear seemed to have been replaced by shock, and he took pictures Bian continued, "Also, if we get closer, we can probably see azurite and azurite dyes on the dragon's scales."

Chen Yu didn't speak, he took a step back trembling, and after being supported by Feng Han, he held onto Feng Han's arm tightly, no matter how he looked at it, he felt that Qinglong's expression and movements were endlessly ferocious.And when the flashlight passed over the orb between the claws of the huge green dragon, he seemed to see a crownless bird engraved on the orb.

In other words, this is the place where the man in black that Feng Han was looking for had been.That's right, because that person came before, Feng Han said that this time he can unlock the Azure Dragon Ring.

Feng Han must have known it a long time ago, so after entering this tomb, his mood was very unstable.

Chen Yu turned to look at Feng Han, and sure enough, he also noticed the problem with the pattern, and was staring at the rock wall coldly.Although his face was still expressionless, the strength of the hand that grabbed Chen Yu was obviously stronger.

The flashlight seemed to be controlled by an invisible hand. It walked around the entire huge relief without stopping, and then moved forward.In order to see the pattern on the rock wall clearly, everyone followed along the bridge with great vigilance.

When they walked tens of meters, the flashlight stopped.

"It's text..."

Professor An was wearing glasses, so he couldn't see clearly at first, and now they were still covered with water vapor, so he asked Du Gang to read the above content to everyone.

Du Gang, who had been staring at the rock wall just now, suddenly opened his eyes wide, as if he couldn't believe it, and then read out the above content: within Liuhe, the emperor's land.It reaches the sea in the east and wades in quicksand in the west.South and Beihu, north over Daxia.Wherever there are people, there is no one who does not surrender.Qin De Zhao Zhao, Qin Wei Lie Lie.Wherever kindness comes, it will reach cattle and horses.

"Qin Chao Li Si?" Chen Yu muttered in a low voice.

Professor An gave Chen Yu an appreciative glance. He didn't know that Chen Yu was a student of the Department of Archeology. He nodded and said, "This is indeed what Li Si proposed for Qin Shihuang's unification of the six kingdoms, but I didn't expect it to appear here. This sentence In addition to the scale of this Qin tomb, it seems that the owner of the tomb is either a king or a lord." At this point, Professor An lowered his eyes, but did not say a word, a tomb of this scale is not like what a prince can have.There were bronze chariots and horses outside, and bronze or pure gold figurines flashed through his mind. Could it be that the Mausoleum of Qin Shihuang in the mainland is fake, but this place is real? !

At this time, the flashlight suddenly went straight down.

Chen Yu followed the flashlight with his eyes, and finally leaned out, and found that the flashlight hadn't reached the end yet, obviously the water cave was very deep.Then, one can imagine the difficulty of carving blue dragon reliefs on the rock wall, and it is even more difficult to build such a magnificent stone bridge.

Chen Yu secretly marveled. At this moment, the flashlight finally stopped. Under the high-intensity light, everyone finally saw the situation below clearly. Flat rock.

"It's not right, there seems to be something on it." Ling Yun also leaned on the bridge railing and looked down.

"It's so small, it's probably a stone monkey or a stone figurine." Du Gang said.

While they were talking, the thing on the stone slowly raised its head, its eyes were dark and cold, and it turned to them accurately, then grinned, and a familiar cry sounded in the water cave!

Following the shrill cry, everyone's faces immediately turned pale.

It's here!

There is no doubt that the child that the archaeological team mentioned was the child who swam from the shipwreck on the seabed more than 2000 years ago.

"Look, it's waiting for us here! It shouldn't have come in just now, it's you, you're going to kill us!" Pu Qing, who had been unable to stand still, was stimulated again, screaming loudly, and finally suddenly Breaking away from the people around him, he rushed over to grab Chen Yu and kick him.

Chen Yuren was on the edge of the railing, and was completely attracted by the child on the rock. When Pu Qing rushed over, he was completely defenseless.Borrowing momentum, the two actually climbed over the railing and fell down.

Chen Yu's mind went blank, and he felt that his breathing had stopped. At that moment, he stretched out his hand in panic, trying to grab the bridge railing, but it was too late.Because the bridge was at a high place, and the fall was fierce, Chen Yu felt the wind blowing on his body in the void, carrying a bone-chilling chill, and then he could no longer think about anything.

It took a while for Chen Yu to realize that he was forcibly stopped when he was falling rapidly. He raised his head slowly and saw Feng Han staring at him closely.The moment Chen Yu flipped out, Feng Han grabbed his feet.Chen Yu's eyelashes trembled, and the extreme fear and despair were gradually relieved by the unrecognizable emotions in Feng Han's pitch-black eyes.

He even felt that the leopard was getting into the railing of the bridge, grabbing and biting his leg, and the leopard almost fell off by itself.

"Hurry up." Feng Han said, pulling Chen Yu up with all his strength. At the same time, he didn't forget to grab the fur of the back of the neck of the leopard that was protruding from the bridge and throw it into the arms of Ma Wenqing who came to help.

Under such an extremely bad situation, Chen Yu smiled wryly and found that he actually felt warm.

Then, the scream in his ear made him frown.That's right, Pu Qing was holding onto him tightly, so what Feng Han was pulling was actually the weight of two people.

Chen Yu turned her head involuntarily, followed Pu Qing's line of sight, and was facing the face of the child on the rock.The posture of hanging upside down allowed him to see the situation below more clearly. The child stared at them with a blank face, and then grinned. Chen Yu found that there were layers of sharp teeth in that mouth!

With the efforts of Feng Han and Du Gang, the two were quickly rescued. Du Gang pulled Pu Qing away from Chen Yu. At this time, Pu Qing fainted because of repeated shocks.

Chen Yu's cold sweat broke out, he breathed a sigh of relief, immediately grabbed Feng Han's hand tightly, and said, "The thing underneath seems to be alive."

The tall and thin man next to Minister You leaned over and said, "Could it be zongzi?"

Chen Yu looked at him uncertainly, and shook his head: "It's hard to say clearly, even if it's really a zongzi, it's still a mutated zongzi."

The tall and thin man didn't seem to be very afraid of zongzi. He patted Chen Yu, who was just rescued and was almost soaked, comfortingly, and said, "Leave it to us."

Chen Yu twitched the corner of his mouth. At this moment, the flashlight started to move again, and it went directly under the bridge.Then no matter whether it was the tall and thin one or the others, they all froze there with pale faces.

Under the entire bridge, there are densely packed virgins and virgins. The dead white faces are lifelike, and they are looking up at them with some kind of deep longing and -- hunger.

The tall and thin man could no longer speak the words entrusted to them here, sweat dripped from his face, and veins appeared in his hand holding the railing due to fear and force.

Professor An stared at it for a long time, dumbfounded, and murmured, "These are virgin boys and girls who were used to drive piles."

Chen Yu was also surprised, yes, it is not surprising that there are piles on such a bridge.

Minister You asked aloud, "Professor, how do you explain this piling?"

Professor An's face was also very ugly, and he said: "This piling of raw piles is regarded as a folk custom in ancient China. Before the start of a large construction project, in order not to destroy the feng shui of the place and touch the souls of the wronged souls, a pair of virgin boys and girls will be taken away. They were buried alive at the place where the construction started to suppress evil spirits. Generally, boys are buried at the head of the bridge and girls are buried at the end of the bridge. These boys and girls become the patron saints of the bridge.”

After hearing this appalling custom, everyone was silent for a long time, and Ma Wenqing seemed to curse something.

Professor An wryly smiled and said: "There is no way, this custom was proposed by Lu Ban, the patriarch of the construction industry, but usually a pair of virgin boys and girls is enough, but judging by the number of virgin boys and girls under our feet, it is almost thousands. It can be seen that the feng shui here must have been very vicious in the first place, it is really a sin."

Du Gang endured the nausea and discomfort, and said: "Professor, it seems that the work diary we saw at that time, the record in the sunken ship is very likely to be the same situation, but—" Du Gang hesitated, and said: "Why did they still alive?"

Professor An's face became quite ugly. There has never been such a record in the history of archaeology, but it is really happening at this moment.

"I think, instead of discussing the history of archaeology, it's better to find a way to leave as soon as possible. They seem to be alarmed." Minister You squinted his eyes and stared under the bridge, and said coldly.

"Also, the flashlight stopped. Wait, it's moving, it's shining towards us!"
