Chapter 13 Chapter 12 Tombstone

When Long Shao heard it, his expression was solemn, and he looked up at Ying Ge, Ying Ge continued: "There is a ball of light, round and big, but the light is very weak and blurry, it looks like an eye. Master, could it be..." I was quite surprised. According to Ying Ge's description, not far from us, there was a vague eyeball-shaped object that was shining.This is indeed an unbelievable thing. You must know that this is an endless barren mountain. It is reasonable to say that it is impossible for any regular luminous body to appear. The appearance of this thing is a bit strange. I suspect that the disappearance of Master Feng is related to that thing.

San Pao said: "The spherical luminous body, could it be a rare luminous pearl? Nine Finger Gold is not particular about it, he wants to take such a good thing for himself!" I said to him angrily and helplessly: "Don't talk nonsense, it's your turn for such a big good thing, now there are two less people, and you still have the time to think about it!" Although I said so about him, I also had this kind of thought in my heart. Even if it is not a luminous pearl, this kind of inexplicable light ball is very likely to be some kind of self-luminous object.Myanmar is a country that produces jade. The mountains here are undulating, and there are a lot of jade mines in the huge and deep veins. I wonder if it is a piece of luminous jade that has grown out of the surface due to geological processes and is exposed.This is very possible. It is said that in many places with rich coal mines in Shanxi, coal can drill out of the ground like weeds in the open air.When I stated my opinion, Young Master Long agreed, but he wasn't sure, so they simply packed up their equipment and followed the directions to find it.

According to Ying Ge's estimation, the ball of light is only about a thousand meters away from us, but it is too difficult to move forward in the forest at night. We walked for more than an hour before we felt that the original dense forest was much sparser, and the sight before our eyes became more and more difficult. Be open.Although the light at the moment is still not very good, it is much better than the blindness in the dense forest. We raised the torch and could vaguely see the surrounding situation. This is a small depression like a basin, and there are many traces of artificial construction around it. Many stone statues of different sizes fell on the ground in a haphazard manner, and most of them were buried until only half of their bodies were exposed on the surface.The whole place showed obvious signs of collapse. It is likely that this place was originally some kind of artificial building, which was destroyed due to a certain geological movement.And when the beam of torch shines through, it is obvious that there is a red glimmer reflected.

We followed the direction of the reflected light and came to the reflector.It was a huge spherical object with a diameter of three meters. More than half of it was embedded in a boulder. Due to the collapse of the ground, some of it had already been buried underground.Even so, this thing still looks very huge. Its surface is smooth and cold to the touch. It is indeed made of high-quality jade materials. If this is a night pearl, it is definitely rare in the world.This thing has a strong ability to gather light. Any light in the dark night is gathered and reflected by it, and it will have a relatively obvious brightness. It should be our firelight that created the light source for it before.I looked at the huge monster in front of me, and always felt that there was something wrong with this thing, but I just had this feeling, and I couldn't tell what was wrong.

"It should be this one!" Ying Ge said with certainty, Young Master Long touched the thing and nodded, then raised the torch to observe carefully. Sanpao looked at the size of the thing, and said in surprise: "Grandma's size, isn't this intentionally making me jealous of Master Pao?" At this moment, Young Master Long suddenly let out a "huh" and moved his body further into the ruins. We had just surrounded him when we suddenly saw his face beaming with surprise and said in surprise: "This thing seems to be a tombstone, used to block the ruins." The one who sealed the tomb passage, could it be that this is the entrance of a mausoleum?" Long Shao showed a rare excitement, stood up and looked around again in disbelief.

I looked at the size of the thing, and I thought it was possible, because it is very close to the hole where the ghost dragon spit out beads. If this is a royal tomb level, it can reach such a scale. The entrance is set here , is entirely possible.Moreover, the ground collapse here is very suspicious. It is very likely that its underground is vacuum, which caused the collapse over time.But if so, what's underneath?The possibility of the underground palace is very small, because this is definitely not where the main tomb is located. Could it be a huge sacrificial pit?Thinking of this made me feel creepy, combined with Master Feng's disappearance for no reason, it made me shudder even more. Is this damn thing really so evil?Master Feng won't be lured by something to be buried here as a funeral object, right?

I am curious about the purpose of that giant jade bead. Long Shao has been immersed in it for many years and knows much more about this alien civilization than I do. He explained to me that this thing should belong to a sacrificial object with special meaning. , He also asked me to observe the cornerstone supporting this giant bead. The giant bead is already very big, so the cornerstone inlaid with it must be even bigger, and a large part of the cornerstone is buried in the soil. After several people removed some soil, the front end of the thing barely appeared. It was actually some kind of strange thing. The head of the beast.

This strange beast opened its mouth wide, and it was holding the giant bead in its mouth, wanting to swallow and spit it out. I saw this strange beast seemed familiar, but when I looked down, I was surprised again. The strange beast has an unusually long body, twisted and coiled on a huge stone pillar, and it was broken into several sections due to the collapse of the ground. Both ends of its body are covered with paddle-like tentacles. Although many tentacles are buried by the soil, they are weak. In the light of the fire, it is easier to imagine it as a huge arthropod emerging from the dirt.

"Damn it! It's a centipede!" I couldn't help shouting, and the strange insect I saw on the boat immediately came to my mind, and I thought that this thing might be the totem of the Nanling people back then. Long Shao expressed the same opinion, but at the moment he didn't want to explain any more. The unexplained disappearance of Master Feng is probably related to this place, so there is no time to waste.Furthermore, if this is the town tombstone, it is more likely to find the hole and the main tomb along it. There is no need to start from other places, and Master Feng is not here now. question.

The tombstone is extremely strong and heavy, and it is impossible to move it away with the strength of a few people. Fortunately, the great force of the earth's crust has helped us. The collapse here has destroyed the tomb passage and formed many breaches. If we are lucky, we can take advantage of it. enter.But there must be the possibility of bad luck, that is, the entire tomb passage collapsed so badly that it was directly blocked. If we encounter such a situation, we can only admit that we are unlucky. Positioning is not an easy task, but it is too easy to find a loophole. Soon, we dug a hole for one person to enter and exit. When the fire shines, it is unfathomable, but it is not a straight tomb passage.I understood at a glance that a large part of the tomb passage is empty, and not far down, there are long and narrow underground rock cracks that criss-cross and can spread hundreds of kilometers away.I couldn't help but feel very embarrassed. It is very easy to get lost if you really want to go down. It is very likely that you may not be able to go around to the main tomb after drilling in the cracks of the ground for a hundred years.

Fortunately, Long Shao seems to be somewhat sure, so we have a lot of confidence. He has been studying Nanling for a long time, and he knows that there are rules to follow in using this kind of underground rock crevice as a tomb passage. It is a purely natural rock crevice. It is impossible to meet the conditions of the tomb passage, and there will definitely be traces of artificial construction. Walking along these traces should not be so easy to get lost. We encouraged each other, and carefully burrowed down one by one, only walking about ten meters. Sure enough, as Long Shao said, the artificial wall sculptures and plank roads around appeared, and those bare rock cracks Formed a stark contrast. Those plank roads are only symbolic, and they were probably used for the construction of the mausoleum. The wood has decayed for so many years, and I am worried that it will collapse, let alone climb and walk on it. There is no way to walk on the plank road, so you can only explore along the narrow rock crevices. The rocks here are densely intertwined and rugged, and there are no places to step down in many places. , Sometimes you have to lean your body at a huge angle and squeeze through with a weird posture.Many underground rocks have sharp edges and corners. Our clothes were damaged, and our bodies were not spared. Many scratches and scratches were found on our backs, arms, and thighs. We did not go far, and our physical strength gradually weakened. I was so tired that I was panting and miserable. I don't think it's an option to go on like this. At that time, I wanted to retreat, thinking that even if I didn't return, I would have to rest and recharge my batteries.As soon as this idea came up, the hands and feet became lazy, and at this moment, San Pao, who was walking in the front, also stopped, holding a torch and looking forward, as if he had discovered something. I was just about to ask, but he had already started to get excited. He stabilized his body and turned his head to wave to us: "Hey! Our crimes are not in vain. There seems to be something wrong in front!"
