"Thousands of years ago, all matters here, big or small, were decided by the Kingdom of Jingjue."

"The Kingdom of Jingjue was not a very big country. It can be said that they could be easily destroyed during the Qin and Han dynasties."

"The weight that the Queen of Jingjue dared to show off her power was her eyes."

"But one day, she found that her eyes that could make people disappear had become the most ordinary eyes."

"The Queen of Jingjue was very anxious. When she was being trained as a saint, the people of the Eluohai told her that if she was about to die, her eyes would lose their function."

"The Queen of Jingjue was too scared. First, she was afraid of death, and second, she was afraid that the vassal countries would kill her when they knew that her eyes had become ordinary."

"So, she thought of praying to God to have mercy on her, so that she could live a few more years and return the magic power of her eyes to her."

Wang Kaixuan interrupted: "But the Queen of Jingjue looks very young, how could she die?"

Huo Jilin rolled his eyes.

"At that time, whether it was medical conditions or natural disasters and man-made disasters, they were far inferior to today. It was very likely that a small cold would take your life. The average life expectancy was only about 20 years old. For someone like the Queen of Jingjue, who was almost 40 years old, she was already very long-lived."

Shirley Yang pushed Wang Kaixuan: "Fatty, don't make a fuss. Listen to Mr. Huo."

Huo Jilin then told the three people the story described in the mural.

"So, she slaughtered cattle and sheep, offered koi, and sacrificed to the sky, but nothing happened."

"On the night of the sacrifice, she dreamed that the sky was angry and asked her to offer a child."

"So, this time she asked each noble family to offer a child. She chose the smartest one from them, offered cattle and sheep again, and let this child become a sacrifice."

"In order to let the gods know her intentions, she also found the best white jade to carve a hexagonal jade pendant and engraved the sacrifices used on the jade pendant."

"But Well, it has no effect. Even if there are gods, they will not waste time to take care of humans. "

"The Queen of Jingjue died, so the people of Jingjue put the sacrificed child in her tomb to protect her."

"After the Queen of Jingjue died, the yellow sand spread and submerged the entire Jingjue Kingdom."

"These murals were probably carved by the domineering nobles of Jingjue in the vassal state at that time."

After telling this story, Wang Kaixuan, Hu Bayi, and Shirley Yang couldn't help but sigh.

Shirley Yang sighed: "This child is really pitiful,"

Wang Kaixuan spat: "Yes, he has already become a sacrifice, and he has to guard the tomb of this damn Queen of Jingjue. Compared with the children nowadays, it's really miserable."

Hu Bayi half squatted down, stroking the lines on the stone carving, and couldn't say a word.

Huo Jilin stretched and yawned, and his fatigue had all dissipated.

"Don't worry about the future. To put it bluntly, the nobles are just dogs kept by the royal family. Only after the founding of the country did the people live like human beings."

Wang Kaixuan frowned: "Master Huo, isn't this a bit unpleasant to hear? The nobles are all dogs kept by the royal family, so what are the common people?"

"Come on, the common people are not as good as the dogs of the nobles. I'm talking about real dogs." Huo Jilin replied without raising his head.

After saying this, Huo Jilin began to observe the mechanism on the stone carving.

There is a groove at each end of the stone carving.

One of the grooves is exactly the same as the jade pendant just found, and there is also a pentagonal groove.

"There is another one here, everyone hurry up and find it."

Shirley Yang said.

"No need." Huo Jilin shook his head, "Fatty, give me the jade on your neck."

Wang Kaixuan took the jade from his neck and asked: "Does my jade have anything to do with this thing?"

Huo Jilin did not explain and put the two jade pendants on the two grooves together.

It fits perfectly.

After the groove was filled, a bracelet-sized ring sank in around it.

Huo Jilin rotated the two rings.

"Boom..."

The stone sculpture rose automatically and soon rose to a space large enough for one person to pass through.

Huo Jilin glanced inside. The visible space was limited, and only a very narrow bridge appeared in the field of vision.

Hu Bayi was agile and was the first to go down the cave.

After stabilizing on the flat ground, he shouted upwards: "Come down quickly!"

Huo Jilin used a flashlight to scan the cave, indicating that Wang Kaixuan would go down first.

Wang Kaixuan was stunned, and obviously did not understand what Huo Jilin meant.

"Master Huo, you won't let me go down first, right?"

Huo Jilin nodded: "What else? If you get stuck, I can still help you from behind."

Wang Kaixuan was speechless, put down the bulging bag, and put down the fat's body squeezed into the hole.

As soon as the two legs went down, they were stuck in the middle.

The flesh on the waist became a circle piled at the entrance of the hole, which was extremely funny.

Huo Jilin was holding back his laughter, and looking at Wang Kaixuan who was constantly struggling, he couldn't help but laughed out loud.

"Fatty, this ancient city of Jingjue didn't make you thin, hahahaha."

Wang Kaixuan was embarrassed and annoyed: "Master Huo, don't laugh, help me quickly."

Shirley Yang pressed Wang Kaixuan down while laughing.

Using all her strength, Shirley Yang's small face, which was as big as a palm, turned red, but Wang Kaixuan still didn't move.

The blood was blocked in the stuck place, which made Wang Kaixuan feel very uncomfortable.

"Master Huo, you should take action quickly, is this hole looking down on people? It's only this small!"

Huo Jilin rubbed his fists alternately with his hands, gathered the strength in his palms, and stretched them towards the stone sculpture.

"Crack!"

The next second, the entire stone wall was broken by Huo Jilin, revealing a huge hole.

Wang Kaixuan had no time to prepare and fell down.

"Ouch! Master Huo! Can't you push me down? My leather bag is broken into two pieces."

Wang Kaixuan rubbed the leather bag and stood up with the help of Hu Bayi.

"Fatty, get out of the way!"

Huo Jilin reminded him and threw the bag Wang Kaixuan had placed on the ground down.

"Bang!"

The backpack hit the ground with a crisp sound.

"Wow, Fatty, your bag is so heavy, what's in it?"

Huo Jilin asked.

Wang Kaixuan picked up the bag and put it back on his back.

"What else could it be? The treasures that were ripped off from the witch in Prince Gumo's tomb."

"Most of them were taken away by the archaeological team at the beginning. Now they are all dead, so I took them back."

"What do you think? I am smart, right?"

Huo Jilin clapped his hands: "Good job, Fatty, you are worthy of it!"

As he said that, he threw the backpacks of Ye Yixin, Chu Jian, and Chen Jiuren down.

"Take them all away. All the treasures in this tomb, don't leave any behind."

After throwing the bag, Huo Jilin suddenly found that Shirley Yang was looking at him with an extremely complicated look.
