NO.289 Mausoleum expert
no.289 The footsteps of the tomb expert...
In an underground palace, a palace where even the flowers, plants and trees are fake, how could there be the sound of footsteps?
"Swish, swish, swish." The footsteps are getting closer and closer.
No one hid, everyone stood straight in place. They didn't believe that more than 100 years later, there were still people alive in this place!
The one who can come over now is probably the wooden man I met in the corridor earlier!
The footsteps are getting closer, and from a distance, you can see shadows of "people" behind the trees, their shapes, their heights, their postures...
The only difference is that no one is angry.
As the figure approached, the first thing that caught the eye was the guard's helmet. The red feather on the helmet was extremely eye-catching. Then, when the "person" completely walked out of the flowers, the whole thing was revealed in front of everyone.
Sure enough, they were really wooden people. A group of 8 "people" were all dressed as guards, wearing helmets and armor, carrying swords at their waists, and wearing iron boots. They had the same pace and the same trajectory, mechanical and extremely neat.
"This should have been made by the carpenter Qiu Muming. It is truly a work of art!" Ji Shuxuan said, his eyes full of admiration.
Although these wooden men look similar to the ones we met in the corridor before, if you look closely, you can easily find that the limbs of these wooden men are more flexible. In other words, once a person touches these wooden men, they are likely to be able to fight back automatically.
Li Tianyou nodded slightly: "No wonder the First Emperor sent people to look for him everywhere but couldn't find him. It turned out that he was captured here to make these things!"
"If this thing is used well, it can save part of the troops. It is not afraid of pain and is obedient." Mo Lishang said.
After finishing her words, she heard Aoxue sneer: "It's a pity that no matter whether it's Xiliang, you Liguo, or Xuanguo, in the past thousands of years, there has only been one Qiu Muming! No matter how powerful Qiu Muming is, no matter how awesome the wooden man he makes is
Bye, the Xia Dynasty has not been destroyed by me, Xiliang!" As she said that, she turned her head and said, "If Master Mo is interested, you can get one out and find someone to study it carefully. Then we can make a batch.
See you on the battlefield!"
Mo Lishang smiled sadly and teased: "I say Xue'er, you are the Queen of Xiliang now. Don't just kill and kill. People who don't know think that there is no one in Xiliang! It's just a few pieces of wood.
, the queen needs to take action herself!"
"That's true." Aoxue no longer looked at Mo Lishang, only looking at the wooden man in front of them who was walking towards them, "Looking at the Li country, except for the emperor's master Mo Lishang who never plays his cards according to the rules,
I really can’t think of anything else worth visiting in person. For this kind of thing, a barrel of oil and a fire are enough.”
Mo Li smiled sadly, admiration evident in his eyes. Many years ago, the Shen Aoxue he first met on the battlefield was so smart. Now, after losing her memory and regaining her memory, and having another memory from another world, her keenness towards war has not been diluted at all.
.
"The queen is smart. I am honored to have the queen as my opponent." Mo Lishang smiled. A great country, with the demeanor of an emperor.
Aoxue was used to seeing this man act as he pleased, being deviant and careless, but she was really not used to his current demeanor, so she looked him up and down, and rudely reminded him that his clothes were dirty, so don't act like a modest young man!
Sure enough, Mo Lishang glanced at himself out of the corner of his eye, showing disgust.
Aoxue smiled at the corner of her mouth, feeling that she had defeated Mo Lishang once again. She glanced at Li Tianyou like a victor: Hehe, am I good?
Li Tianyou also laughed: My Xue'er is the most powerful!
The wooden man got a little closer. When he reached a certain place, the first one suddenly turned around and walked onto another stone path on the right, followed by the second wooden man, who also turned around where the first one turned, and then the second wooden man turned around.
The third, the fourth...
It seems that even these wooden men acting as guards have the same planned route as the palace guards.
At this time, Qi Haoli bent down, picked up a pebble from the ground, and was about to shoot it at the wooden man. Ji Shuxuan suddenly stretched out his hand and stopped Qi Haoli: "Don't move!"
"I'll try to see if they really have the ability to fight back," Qi Haoli said.
"This is not our focus. It's better not to move. Who knows if these wooden figures are connected to any other mechanisms." Ji Shuxuan's eyes swept across the area, a little worried, "I always feel that this place is very weird."
, he turned towards the people behind him and said sternly, "Put away your curiosity all the way behind! No plants, no trees, no furnishings are allowed to be touched!"
"Yes!" Everyone answered in unison. For many years, who followed Li Tianyou didn't know how powerful Ji Shuxuan was and never made any wrong judgment! In this place, from the moment they entered the mausoleum, everything they saw exceeded their expectations.
*
Among the group of people, Li Tianyou and Aoxue were still at the front, heading towards the next entrance on the map.
In the meantime, I walked through the roads and alleys, passed through the splendid palaces, and met more than a dozen wooden guards...
Everyone has always adhered to the principle of not touching or moving. Although Blue Scorpion acted cooperatively, she still had doubts in her heart: "Didn't you come in to get the treasure?" She looked at these golden palaces, "Since these palaces are based on real palaces
There are naturally treasures in the palace, why don't you go in and take a look?"
"I won't go in." Aoxue smiled and gave up generously, "I proposed this trip to the imperial mausoleum. I originally wanted to take out all the gold, silver and jewelry in the imperial mausoleum to expand my Xiliang treasury, but now
, I’m a little timid. Who knows what the hell the bt emperor has done here? If the treasures haven’t been taken out, a group of us are buried here!”
"According to me, there is really no need to enter these palaces." Mo Lishang said, "No matter how many floors a mausoleum has, its ultimate purpose is to protect the last and most important thing, which is the body of the tomb owner. The last generation of the Xia Dynasty
The emperor was famous for his extravagance, and all the most precious things would definitely be next to him. These palaces were built so splendidly with the purpose of luring tomb robbers in and triggering the mechanism. I estimate that except for the time when he escaped and lived there,
Except for the place I passed, the other palaces must be empty!"
Hearing Mo Lishang's analysis, Aoxue felt a little better. Although she said she wanted to give up, she could only cross such a dangerous place once and almost lose her life, but she didn't take anything out.
Really unwilling!
"As expected of an expert in tomb research!" Aoxue praised, "I have another more worrying thing in my heart. Can Master Mo help me answer it?"
"But it doesn't matter."
"The way we came in has been blocked, how should we get out?" Aoxue asked. Not only Aoxue, everyone in the group had thought about this question at the moment when the corridor above collapsed, but
None of them were spoken out.
"That's a good question!" Mo Lishang smiled and nodded, as if he was answering the question of his disciple Zhuge Yulang, "Generally speaking, after the imperial mausoleum is repaired, in order not to reveal the address and organization of the mausoleum,
Anyone who builds a mausoleum will be condemned to die in the mausoleum. Everyone knows this, right?"
Everyone nodded.
At this time, Lan Scorpion touched her neck. This was the nth time she touched her neck. It was strange, since she saw Manzhu Shahua and had that dream, she had been feeling a little uncomfortable in her neck.
It seems to be a little painful and I can't feel anything if I touch it carefully.
Aoxue saw Lan Scorpion touching his neck and pretended not to know anything: "Why do you keep touching your neck?"
"Just in time, sister Aoxue, help me find out what's wrong with my neck!" Lan Scorpion raised his head, "Why do I always feel uncomfortable?"
"It's nothing! Except for the four neck lines, it's fair and clean." Aoxue looked like she was telling lies with her eyes open.
When Lan Scorpion heard about the neck lines, he undoubtedly thought of his age. He touched the lines with some emotion and quickly gave Mo Lishang and Li Tianyou a coquettish smile: "It doesn't matter, mature men don't look at these!"
When Aoxue saw that Lan Scorpion was no longer paying attention and the bruises on her neck appeared, Fang continued what Mo Lishang had just said: "Keep talking."
"We know that those who repair tombs will be punished with death, and those who repaired tombs naturally knew it. As the saying goes, ants can live in vain, let alone humans! Therefore, in all imperial tombs, there must be a way out that the tomb repairers secretly left for themselves! Moreover, there are also
More than one!" Mo Lishang said firmly.
Hearing that there was a way out, everyone felt more at ease.
"But where is the way out?" someone asked.
"There is a way out on every floor." Mo Lishang looked around and said, "According to me, if this floor is so complicated to repair, the construction period must be very long. The construction period of the project is long, so the workers must..." Halfway through his words,
Mo Lishang's voice stopped suddenly, and his eyes passed over the bushes and fell somewhere.
Following his gaze, everyone soon held their breath, as if they couldn't believe what they were seeing!
There--
Among the delicate artificial flowers, in front of the white marble stone table, a young woman was sitting there, wearing a long water-white satin dress, without a trace of embroidery on the skirt, extremely pure, with satin-like black hair like a waterfall.
, with an ivory comb in his hand, he was combing his long hair. Every move he made showed infinite softness.
Just a back view is already stunning.
She is definitely not a wooden person. Although a wooden person is flexible, she is definitely not as gentle as a human being. This woman, look at her wrists, look at the angle of her neck...
Neck, wrist...
Aoxue suddenly realized something and looked at these two places more focused. With just one glance, she froze! That was Bai Xi's skin. Look at the luster, it could be broken with a finger.
Ask yourself, even I definitely don’t have such good skin! This woman is definitely a peerless beauty!
Except for Aoxue, at this moment, everyone was suspicious of their previous judgment that there was no living person in the tomb!
Is this woman alive or dead?!
If they are alive, why is there no reaction at all when a group of their size passes by from behind and they have been talking for so long? If they are dead, how come it has been a hundred years, and how come their every move is no different from that of ordinary people?!
"Let's go, it's just a Gu man." At this time, Blue Scorpion spoke lightly.
Hearing what Blue Scorpion said, although everyone had never seen Gu people, Aoxue and Li Tianyou continued to move forward, and the group followed behind. At this moment, they only heard an "ah" sound.
Aoxue turned around and saw that one of them had walked around in front of the beauty, with a look of horror on his face through the flowers.
Chapter completed!
