The group of people walked and stopped in this long tomb passage. Most of the time, Professor Yang insisted on stopping because he wanted to carefully observe these lines.

Such fine lines are neatly constructed and painted in a regular style, as if they were made by heaven. The lines on the stone wall have no obvious traces or chiseling marks, as if they grew naturally.

But Dong Lingye had clearly interpreted the meaning of these lines just now, and upon closer inspection it was consistent with her description, so it should still be man-made.

However, what puzzled Professor Yang and others was the circumstances under which such a huge project was built.

Moreover, this ancient tomb took a lot of time and energy that only a few people could complete in a short period of time. When did the owner of this tomb die?

According to the information they have, accurate records of this place only existed during the Western Qin Dynasty. The data show that the ancient tomb belongs to the early Xia period.

Judging from the scale of the construction, the owner of this tomb must have been a ruling class aristocratic royal family during his lifetime, because only high-level people can control such a large labor force.

The specifications of the finished product illustrate the labor used in the construction process, and the amount of labor also reflects the status of the enjoyer.

Therefore, Professor Yang inferred that the owner of this ancient tomb must be a certain king in the early Xia Dynasty, and that this king controlled supreme power.

Of course, it may also be a wizard with divination ability. The wizard can communicate with God's will, and his power may be opposed to the king of Xia.

Lingye was walking in front, and from time to time he could hear Professor Yang and his students talking about science. It had to be said that Professor Yang, besides being a bit greedy, also had some real information in his mind.

"If we conduct further research on the ancient tomb and determine the identity of the owner of this tomb, it will be of great help to us in carrying out archaeological investigations in the early summer period in the future."

Professor Yang was looking forward excitedly from behind. The blueprint was very beautiful, but he heard Dong Wentao say "Huh".

"What's wrong?" Professor Yang asked.

"Professor, look, there is a bright light in front of you, like... it's shining from above."

They had long lost their sense of direction as they were twisting and turning underground. When they saw a beam of light, they thought they were about to reach some mysterious place.

Professor Yang said hurriedly: "Quick, walk faster and see what's ahead."

His eyes showed eagerness, and he helped Bai Ruoxuan move forward quickly.

Except for Ling Ye, Er Ye and Fu Gui, everyone else ran towards the light, even Qiao Hexi.

Lingye narrowed his eyes slightly, this Qiao Hexi was really in trouble.

If others don't know what that light is, she can understand, Qiao Hexi, haha.

Slowly and leisurely, Lingye and the second master arrived one after the other.

Unexpectedly, Professor Yang's face was full of frustration and disbelief.

This place is where they went down to the tomb passage just now!

Why did you go around in a circle and come back again?

Did you go wrong?

But there is really only one way to this tomb passage, and there is no door at all. Where should they go?

No matter how you put it, it’s hard to explain when you come back!

Is the place wrong? This is not actually an ancient tomb?

But what about those stone wall patterns just now? What about such a secret passage on the stone wall under the mountain?

Could it be that Dong Lingye was playing tricks on them?

Professor Yang's eyes were filled with anger, and the tomb passage was dark. Even if there was a beam of light coming in, he could not see clearly.

However, Lingye could see the anger deep in Professor Yang's eyes.

No, it should be said that she felt it.

"Director Dong, don't you think you should give us an explanation for this matter?"

Professor Yang tried his best to suppress his anger in his voice.

Before Lingye could speak, Qiao Hexi snatched the conversation away.

"We trust you so much. How many days have we been working here with you? In the end, you took us for a spin under the ground and it was over? You just said those shapeless lines so clearly. Who knows if you made them up in advance?

Just to fool us."

His words were filled with extremely superior nobility and justice, as if the few remaining people had violated academic ethics by not speaking out.

Mr. Li looked at Professor Yang, Qiao Hexi, and Dong Lingye, feeling in a dilemma.

Mr. Qiao is not in their field, so he doesn't know much about some things. There is indeed something weird about this place. Even the stone wall is definitely not made up by Dong Lingye specifically to tease them.

However, they did not find the expected ancient tomb. They had not rested for several days just because of this ancient tomb. He could understand that Lao Yang was holding back his anger.

Li Laozhang opened his mouth, hesitated and said again: "Lao Yang, we have already come this far anyway, why don't we go up first and talk about it. If anything happens, we can come down and take a look."

Lingye chuckled lightly and said, "Professor Yang, you have already seen everything you should see."

After saying that, she followed the second master and climbed up the ladder first, regardless of whether the people behind her followed.

But as expected, Professor Yang and the others really didn't follow him. He kept nagging Qiao Hexi about how Lingye didn't keep his word.

Qiao Hexi listened respectfully on the surface, but he was very irritable in his heart and wished he could just kill him.

Just as Professor Yang was talking enthusiastically, he heard a voice with a mocking tone.

"Hey, old man, you're still complaining about being addicted, right? Hurry up and bury you here without further ado!"

It's Fugui who is the unlucky guy. He might leave if Lingye and the others go up, but he still has to watch Qiao Hexi.

He has buried himself, why are you so obedient!

You can't be rebellious even once!

Inspired by his inner feelings, Fu Gui solemnly decided that his rebellion was to deal with Professor Yang and the others first. He was not joking. If Professor Yang didn't come up, Fu Gui would really move the earth and bury them.

Since you are so attached to this ancient tomb, then you can all just keep company with that little kid in the slope.

I don't know if Fu Gui scared them or what, but Professor Yang glared unwillingly and actually asked Bai Ruoxuan to help him up.

As soon as he came up, Mr. Li quickly pulled him aside to talk, just the two of them.

The two of them muttered without knowing what they said. After returning, Professor Yang's anger was obviously extinguished, and when he looked at Ling Ye, there was no longer any anger in his eyes.

He asked everyone to have lunch first and discuss anything after lunch.

However, taking advantage of this time, Professor Yang came to see Dong Lingye again, and said in every possible way that he just wanted to see the ancient tomb. He said it was for academic development, and he said that he was old and had little time to live, which was pitiful.

Very.

Just as he was pestering him tightly, the second master was already impatient with him. Just as he was about to drive him away, he saw Professor Yang suddenly going crazy, with crazy persistence in his eyes, which was almost pathological.

Lingye secretly screamed something bad and quickly cast a spell to immobilize him.

Professor Yang fainted, and Bai Ruoxuan screamed and ran over to drag him, calling "teacher, teacher" anxiously.

Mr. Li also stepped forward and looked at Dong Lingye with a frown.
