Wow, the connotation of this cross talk is so rich!

Under the blue sky, there are overlapping and continuous mountain peaks.

These mountains are like loyal defenders of the country, guarding the land of China.

This is the dividing line between the north and the south of China, the Qinling Mountains.

At this time, one side of the Qinling Mountains is foggy and the white clouds are flowing slowly, giving you the feeling of being half covered with a pipa; while the other side is clearly visible, majestic and majestic, exposed to the sun. Down.

This miraculous meteorological landscape made Qin Yuejing and Jiang Chengyang sitting on the plane feel the beauty of nature.

"The Qinling Mountains can be regarded as a natural barrier. It isolates most of the weak cold air in the north. At the same time, it also blocks the flow of warm and humid air. The side with some clouds looks very cold, but in fact the other side It’s the south, no? The cloud is the north, and it’s precisely because of the uplift of warm air from the south that the cloud is formed..."

Professor You, who was sitting by the side, explained the confusion for the two of them.

After Qin Yuejing finished listening, she smiled and replied: "This is a ready-made geography question, let me ask: Is there one? Is the side of the cloud and fog to the north or the south?"

Hearing what they said, Professor You couldn't help laughing: "Indeed, if ordinary people don't understand it, it's really easy to get it wrong."

While several people were talking, Professor You's assistant informed them that they were about to land.

Qin Yuejing, Jiang Chengyang, and Professor You quickly confirmed the seat belts.

They are on a helicopter flying to the north of the Qinling Mountains, and their final destination is an ancient tomb.

The ancient tomb was discovered only yesterday.

Due to the large-scale earthquake yesterday, the ground collapsed, revealing an underground palace buried underground.

Ordinary ancient tombs would not be discovered so quickly, but because the collapsed area of ​​the ground here is very large, it was captured by a satellite by accident, and the news quickly reached the History Research Department of the Academy of Sciences, the Tourist Professor there.

When Professor You saw the ancient tomb photographed by satellite, his shock was beyond words.

Immediately, he hurriedly inquired about Qin Yuejing and Jiang Chengyang, and when he learned that the two had been protected by the national security department, he immediately went to pick them up with relevant procedures.

In fact, on the way here, Qin Yuejing and Jiang Chengyang also tried to ask Professor You's purpose for bringing them here, but Professor You thought it was a big deal, so they only mentioned the destination, so they naturally knew.

Seeing Professor You's seriousness, the two felt that the matter might not be that simple.

The helicopter landed slowly after finding an open space in the valley.

A group of people got off the plane quickly.

Qin Yuejing and Jiang Chengyang had already changed into field equipment at this time, and Professor You and the other? Several archaeological team members were also dressed outdoors.

Looking at their familiar clothes, the two couldn't help recalling their previous experience of tomb robbery.

"Let's go!"

Following Professor You's order, the group began to walk towards the deep mountain.

■

In front of everyone is a huge pit, and at the bottom of the pit, there is an ancient underground palace standing there.

It's just that there are large and small gravels scattered around the underground palace. These gravels smashed several main buildings of the underground palace to pieces.

"Last night, after a large-scale earthquake, this area collapsed, but no one? No? It turned out that there was an underground palace hidden underneath."

Looking at the scene in front of him, Professor You couldn't help sighing.

Qin Yuejing and Jiang Chengyang were also shocked and speechless for a moment.

Overall, the underground palace has a courtyard layout. There are main halls, side halls, high platforms and attics. Although the underground palace has been destroyed by collapsed boulders, several buildings have been preserved. .

Looking carefully at the architectural style of those buildings, it is actually similar to the previous rock wall fairy palace.

Is this why Professor You called them over?

"Professor You, why does this underground palace have the same style as that rock wall fairy palace?" Qin Yuejing asked quickly.

Professor You nodded: "That's right, it's just a style. When I first saw the satellite pictures, I was also surprised. We suspected that the designers of the underground palace and fairy palace were made by the same person, but I didn't because of this. , I just called you over, I still have something important to show you."

Qin Yuejing and Jiang Chengyang were taken aback.important stuff?

half an hour.

The bottom of the giant pit.

At this time, after Qin Yuejing and Jiang Chengyang followed the crowd and stood at the bottom of the huge pit, they could feel the majesty of this underground palace even more, and the size of the fallen rubble around it.

Due to the different viewing angles, the gravel seen from above is actually as high as a two-story building when viewed from a close distance.

The huge boulders that fell from the earthquake shattered some of the buildings in the underground palace, and also left patches of mottled spots on the bluestone ground.

"Fortunately, when the ground collapsed, it wasn't connected into pieces. The rubble just smashed some buildings. If it fell down in pieces, the underground palace is probably completely destroyed." An archaeologist in the team? Fortunately, I took out my camera and started taking pictures.

"Don't stop? Shoot, you can't run away from this place, and it's the same when you come here for archaeology. Now we mainly go to the main hall. Xiao Qin, Xiao Jiang, come with me."

After Professor You finished speaking to everyone, he waved to them.

Hearing Professor You's reminder, the archaeologist hastily put away the camera.

Although Qin Yuejing and Jiang Chengyang were curious, they immediately followed Professor You and walked towards the main hall.

After bypassing several boulders and collapsed buildings, the group came to the edge of the giant pit.

At this time, in front of them is a simple and natural, majestic and magnificent palace.

The main hall has three floors, supported by steps, surrounded by many low pillars, and a stone tower stands in front of the hall.

There are eight stone pillars in front of the temple gate, and there are some freehand designs on the stone pillars respectively.

However, the main hall was also impacted by the collapse of the ground above, and now the left half has been completely destroyed.

"You should be familiar with that pattern." Professor You pointed to the stone pillar and asked Qin Yuejing and Jiang Chengyang.

It is indeed very familiar, because the pattern is the mysterious symbol of those two-headed and four-armed people!

"Why are there these symbols here?" Qin Yuejing couldn't help asking in surprise.

"Before, the satellite observed the earthquake in several places in Huaguo, and found this underground palace by accident, and then reported the news to the scientific research institute.

When I knew it, I thought it was just an accidental discovery of ancient ruins, but until I saw the mysterious symbols on the pillars on both sides of the gate in the photo, I suddenly thought of you.

You just predicted the earthquake before, and this earthquake shook out this underground palace, and just in this underground palace, there are? These mysterious symbols, I don’t know what is there? What kind of connection is there, but I think, I have? I need to bring you over to have a look. "

At this moment, Professor You stared at Qin Yuejing and Jiang Chengyang seriously and said.

The other? people also looked dignified.

Although they didn't know that these two people asked Professor You about the mysterious symbols before, they all knew that these two people predicted an earthquake just yesterday.

So this earthquake, the mysterious underground palace shaken out, will it also have something to do with the two of them?

Qin Yuejing and Jiang Chengyang nodded.

They finally knew why Professor You called them here.

Indeed, according to Professor You's conjecture, this mysterious underground palace may have something to do with the sudden large-scale earthquake before.

"It's not too late, let's go in and take a look." Professor You said, waving to everyone.

"Wait for Professor You, most of this main hall has collapsed, will it be dangerous for us to go in?" Qin Yuejing asked a little worried.

"It's okay." Professor You smiled, "When we came here before, we had already shown it to architectural experts.

Although this main hall has been seriously damaged, but now this kind of damage has formed a new balance, and it will not collapse further, so we can rest assured.

And we also did a brief research. The damaged part is the side hall in the first half. Generally, there are no special or important things in this part. What is there is only gold, silver and jewelry that the tomb owner loved during his lifetime. In this underground palace, the most The core part should be in the back half of the main hall. "

Qin Yuejing and Jiang Chengyang were relieved when they heard what Professor You said.

Afterwards, under the leadership of Professor You, a group of people entered through the broken gate of the main hall.

Not to mention that more than half of the main hall has been destroyed, but the building inside is still magnificent. Presumably, the owner of the tomb intends to enjoy everything he had while alive after being buried.

Many things collapsed in the main hall, and everyone walked cautiously in it.

Although most of the entire underground palace has been destroyed now, there are still organs in operation.

The place they are walking now is not a place of historical interest, nor are they tourists from outside. This is a mausoleum, and they are the outsiders that the owner of the tomb hates the most.

Moreover, do they still remember the tomb robbers who died tragically in the Immortal Palace on the Rock Wall?

Fortunately, the road was unimpeded. After passing through a section of stairs and a stone gate, they successfully entered the apse.

At this time, a huge white marble sarcophagus was placed in the center of the empty apse.

But all the people didn't look at the sarcophagus. Instead, they raised their heads and looked at the surrounding stone walls in shock.

It turns out that on the surrounding stone walls, there are actually colorful and mysterious symbols depicted.

These mysterious symbols are no longer chaotic, but have a certain arrangement.

And in it, there's painting.

"The owner of this tomb should have liked astrology!"

An archaeologist in the team couldn't help saying, because he found some patterns depicting astrology among these mysterious symbols.

Thousands of years ago in Huaguo, people became interested in the starry sky, and gradually discovered that the movement of celestial bodies in it is closely related to the weather, such as tides.

Ancient people began to further study astrology.

It is not uncommon for archaeologists like them who are used to seeing tombs to have astrological images in ancient tombs.

Professor You also saw the astrological pattern, but he didn't reply, but looked at Qin Yuejing and Jiang Chengyang.

When these two people held the mysterious symbols before, when they found them, they had a hunch that these two people should know how to decipher the mysterious symbols, so he planned to let them try it now.

But before he could open his mouth, he suddenly found Qin Yuejing and Jiang Chengyang lying on the ground and twitching.

"What happen to you guys!"

After the other people noticed it, they hurried over.

Just now, when Qin Yuejing and Jiang Chengyang entered the apse, when they looked at the mysterious symbols around them, they both felt a little regretful. If they had known that they were looking at the mysterious symbols, they should have taken Coco brought it, so that they can decipher the mysterious symbols here in the first time.

But just when this idea flashed through their minds, suddenly, their heads tingled, and in an instant, various pictures flashed before their eyes.

The two of them just felt like their heads were about to explode, and at some point, they fell to the ground in pain.

"Hurry up, give them first aid!" Professor You hurriedly ordered his assistant.

Generally, when engaging in field archaeology, you will learn certain first aid methods, so that you can save yourself when an emergency occurs in the field.

But before Professor You's assistant could inspect the two, suddenly? These two actually? Break free from the crowd, and staggered towards the huge sarcophagus.

When they came to the huge sarcophagus, the two began to push the lid of the sarcophagus with their bare hands, trying to open the sarcophagus with their own strength.

Seeing the weird behavior of the two, and then contacting the situation where the two suddenly fell to the ground just now, Professor You and his party were a little frightened.

"Are they bewitched?"

"Why did they open the sarcophagus?"

"Hurry up, stop them! They are cultural relics!"

One of the archaeological team members reacted and couldn't help shouting, and then several team members planned to step forward to stop Qin Yuejing and Jiang Chengyang.But at this moment, the two people pushing the coffin lid yelled at everyone:

"Give us the crowbar!"

"Help us open the sarcophagus!"

Everyone was stopped by the two people's shouts, and then they noticed that the two people spoke clearly and their eyes were clear. They didn't seem to be crazy, but they? They had anxious looks on their faces.

These few people lost their minds for a while, and all turned their heads to look at Professor You who rushed over.

"What should I do, Professor You?"

At this moment, Professor You looked at Qin Yuejing and Jiang Chengyang who were desperately trying to open the sarcophagus, gritted his teeth, stomped his feet, and shouted: "Open the coffin!"

"But..." A member of the archaeological team hesitated.

This is a cultural relic. If something important is placed in it, the air will be gone as soon as you see it!

"No? What's the matter? I'll be responsible for any problems!" Professor You gritted his teeth and said.

He? has seen so many weird things before, and now these two people want to open the sarcophagus like crazy, which makes him feel even weirder. However, at this time, he? give them a hand.

He's betting, he's betting on these two people, he must know something important!

When the archaeologists heard Professor You's words, they immediately took out their crowbars, stepped forward one after another, and began to pry the lid of the sarcophagus.

In the end, with the great efforts of everyone, the sarcophagus was opened.

The coffin lid fell heavily and hit the ground, kicking up thick dust.

In this thick dust, Qin Yuejing and Jiang Chengyang threw down the crowbars in their hands and hurriedly pawed at the edge of the sarcophagus.

When they saw the man in the sarcophagus, the two burst into tears.

It turned out that what their master carried was actually such a fate.

What Qingling faction, is it just a chess piece?

Can you say that their master is so stupid? No, it should be said that all the disciples of the Qingling School have been such fools, big fools!

But it has to be said that each of these disciples has a heroic integrity, and this is the result they want to pursue.

This is the Tao pursued by their master, and it is also the Tao pursued by the Qingling School since ancient times!

After thinking about it, the two of them actually laughed again.

Who would have imagined that in the end, it turned out to be such a truth!

At this moment, the tears on Qin Yuejing's and Jiang Chengyang's faces were mixed with the dust that hadn't dispersed just now, they looked like mud monkeys, and with their laughing and crying, they looked like crazy monsters.

Professor You and his team were shocked again when they saw the performance of the two.

How could this be so good, suddenly it went crazy, what did they see?

Immediately, everyone who reacted quickly stepped forward to look into the sarcophagus.

At first glance, I was shocked.

"Why is it a Taoist priest?" an archaeologist said in surprise.

At this time, a mummy wearing a simple Taoist robe was lying in the sarcophagus.

"It's not a Taoist priest. Judging from the texture of the clothes, it should be an alchemist from the Han Dynasty." Another archaeological team member frowned and said.

"Could it be that the owner of the tomb was buried wearing a Taoist robe?" Another archaeological team member gave his own analysis.

"He? Not the owner of the tomb, he? An alchemist who belongs to the Qingling sect."

At this time, Jiang Chengyang, who had calmed down a little, spoke quietly.

Qin Yuejing on the side stood there blankly, as if mourning silently.

"Qing Lingpai? It's a very familiar name."

How many? The archaeological team felt very familiar for a while, and it took a while to realize that this is exactly the style of their masters.

"However, how do you know that the person lying here is not the owner of the tomb?" an archaeologist asked curiously.

Qin Yuejing and Jiang Chengyang didn't? Answer, the two just looked at the mummy in the sarcophagus, and shed tears again.

It turned out that the story about the fake death substitute that their master told them was true.

In the story, the alchemist who escaped death for King Hongchang of Western Wen was the mummy in front of him.

Just now, they got all the truth from the mysterious symbols around them, including the ending of this story:

It turned out that after the alchemist saved the Western King Hongchang Jun, Mr. Hongchang was grateful for the alchemist's kindness, so he asked the alchemist what he wanted, gold, silver, jade, beauty, and women's rights. He could give them all, but the alchemist refused them all. What I want? It's just him? The mausoleum that I just built.

The mausoleum was built temporarily by the alchemists in order to let Lord Hongchang escape the inevitable end.

Mr. Hongchang, who also knows the method of fortune-telling, feels that his doom is over, and the tomb will not be used for decades, and the location of the tomb chosen by the alchemist is not a feng shui dragon, so he doesn't care. Directly gave the mausoleum to the alchemist.

After that, the alchemist who got the tomb of Lord Hongchang stayed here...

As for why the alchemist did this, it was because he wanted to complete a big plan handed down by the Qing Ling Sect since ancient times!

Not only the mummy in front of them, but even their master and even themselves are the most important part of it!

Thinking of this, Qin Yuejing and Jiang Chengyang burst into tears again.

Seeing Jiang Chengyang talking just now, Professor You thought that the two of them had recovered, but before saying a few words, the two of them actually? Wept again, and he couldn't help feeling worried.

This person was brought out by them, and now he looks like this, obviously he has been greatly stimulated, hey, if he had known this, he shouldn't have been so impulsive!

Just when Professor You was blaming himself, Qin Yuejing and Jiang Chengyang both stopped crying, wiped away their tears, came to them, and grabbed their hands.

Professor You looked at the two people who suddenly appeared in front of him, and was startled:

"You, you, what's the matter with you?"

At this time, he was stared at by two pairs of dark eyes, and his heart became more and more flustered. Could it be that he was really bewitched?

"Professor You, it's too late now, you should quickly inform the Academy of Sciences, contact Sky Eye, and let them see the universe!"

Qin Yuejing stared at Professor You, and said word by word.

"Hurry up, time is running out!" Jiang Chengyang also frowned and emphasized.

"What? Sky Eye! Universe!"

Professor You was stunned.

The Sky Eye, he knows, is a device for observing celestial bodies in the universe, and their Sky Eye in Huaguo is the most comprehensive radio telescope in the world...

Wait, thinking of this, he suddenly noticed the star pattern depicted on the distant stone wall, his eyes widened suddenly, and his lips trembled a little: "No problem, no problem!"

As he spoke, he quickly took out the satellite phone.
