Chapter 11 One more?
Peanut patted me, and I came back to my senses. Seeing that everyone had gone in, we didn't delay any more.
As soon as I entered the huge door, I felt that the people in front of me were moving very slowly and stopped, which made the fat man in front of me so bored that he started smoking. Every time I saw a mural or brick carving, these people would
They stopped to take pictures, and sometimes they would gather around and have some brief discussions.
I couldn't help but think of what Fatty said before. Are these people really here to save people?
But anyway, they didn't panic, so Fatty and I didn't have to worry. While Professor Chen and the others were studying those things, I also started to look at the structure of this ancient tomb.
There are a total of seven brick rooms here, corresponding to seven giant doors. Each brick room is connected by a side door. Our place is located in the leftmost one of the seven brick rooms. It is not very big, but there are quite a lot of things inside.
.Apart from the half-person-high bronze incense burner placed in the center of the brick room, what interests us the most is the stone-carved bed against the wall.
There is nothing on the stone couch, but the reliefs on it are very rich. In addition to the most common cloud and thunder patterns, there is also a phoenix carved on the front of the stone couch.
"Professor Chen, there is a phoenix carved on it. Could the owner of the tomb be a woman?" Zhang Yaxi asked.
Professor Chen was a little confused, but still shook his head, "During the Sixteenth Dynasty of Wei and Jin Dynasties, it seemed that no woman was worthy of a tomb of this size. This may be because there was a woman with a more noble status among the people buried together or buried with her.
.”
Several students nodded, but Zhuge Xuan suddenly pointed at the head of the phoenix and said, "Look, this phoenix is carved incorrectly."
As soon as she said this, everyone looked in the direction of her finger. I took a closer look and found that what Zhuge Xuan pointed to us was the eyes of the phoenix.
I can't see anything specifically wrong with those eyes, but I can still find that this phoenix gives people a very different feeling.
"Ah." Professor Chen suddenly gasped, "Why is there a dragon's eye carved on this phoenix?"
The people of the ancient Central Plains highly respected dragons and phoenixes. Even the patterns of dragons and phoenixes could not be painted by just a random person, because these two things were symbols of power, and their images were almost invisible in the hands of the ancients.
It is fixed. The longan is round and majestic, and the energy of heaven and earth is contained in it. The phoenix eye is narrow, long and high, symbolizing the noble royal temperament. Putting the longan on the phoenix head, this way of the sculptor is simply unique no matter which dynasty it is in.
It is a capital crime that can punish the nine tribes.
However, the phoenix in front of me was carved like this. What is even more puzzling is that although this crested dragon eye looks very strange, it overall makes people feel round and full, revealing an indescribable momentum.
.
"Although the carving skills of the Han Dynasty are far behind those of the Ming and Qing Dynasties, the person who carved this phoenix is simply unfathomable and can actually do such a bizarre thing." Professor Chen marveled for a while, "But why did the owner of the tomb arrange it like this?
Woolen cloth?"
At this time, the fat man squatting aside and smoking became impatient, "Let's think about these problems after we go out. Professor Chen, we have been delayed for two hours in this brick room, and there are six more behind, uh, I
It's just a road, I don't care what you do, but if you don't rush in, then I will sit down and take a nap later, so you can't blame me for being unprofessional."
Professor Chen smiled sheepishly, "I'm sorry, we people can't control ourselves when we see these things. You're right, everyone should leave quickly."
After saying this, several people walked from the stone couch to the side door where the fat man was.
"You guys wait."
As soon as the guys came together, Yang Lang suddenly shouted. He stood about ten meters away from us, his behavior was stiff, and he looked very uneasy.
I thought Yang Lang was a very capable person before, but I didn't expect that when he came in, he was actually more nervous than me.
"Yang Lang, what's wrong with you?" Professor Chen walked over.
"I..." Yang Lang looked at Professor Chen and then at everyone, "There seems to be something wrong here."
When I came in just now, I noticed something was wrong with Yang Lang's performance. When he said that, I couldn't help but feel chills on my back. The things that happened last time are still fresh in my mind. I just came in now. Do I have to do it again?
Something happened?
We all looked around, and Zhang Yadong said, "What's wrong? Yang Lang, you're usually very brave, why now..."
"Didn't any of you notice?" Yang Lang continued, "After the rain cloth was put on, something was wrong around us."
"If you have any questions, just tell me directly." I urged.
At this time, Peanut walked up to Yang Lang and said, "Classmate Yang, don't be nervous. Calm down and tell everyone slowly."
However, Yang Lang seemed unable to calm down at all. He glanced at us back and forth, and after a long time he said, "Didn't you notice? We have... one more person here."
Although there were eight flashlights, the darkness in the tomb could not be dispelled by light. Yang Lang's words were like a cold hand suddenly strangling everyone's neck. At this moment, everyone
It became quiet. The surrounding atmosphere suddenly became extremely weird. I'm afraid everyone is like me now, calmly counting the number of flashlight lights around them.
In this brief silence, we suddenly heard a "click" sound around us. In an instant, everyone's shoulders and mine shrugged at the same time. Almost at the same time, everyone's eyes turned to the fat man.
That side door.
That sound was the sound of the flashlight switch. It was obvious that one of us suddenly turned off his flashlight just now. However, just by scanning with his eyes, he could tell that the eight people who came down were still standing where they were.
The hairs all over my body stood up. Suddenly, I clearly remembered that there was a person standing there with a flashlight at the door next to the fat man just now.
The fat man was obviously frightened, his face turned pale, he turned to stare at himself, and the muscles around his nostrils were beating wildly.
"Just now, I remember the door was..." Zhang Yaxi's voice trembled and he wanted to say whose name it was, but in the end, he couldn't.
And it is this seemingly missing memory that makes us all feel a sense of fear.
"Yang Lang, here, why didn't you tell me before that there was an extra person?" Zhang Yadong looked at Yang Lang.
"I..." Yang Lang lowered his head, "I wasn't sure before. It seemed that the extra one was sometimes absent..."
"Okay." Professor Chen said, "Don't think too much and keep walking."
I know that at this time, it is useless to stop and continue to guess here. This is an ancient tomb. In fact, everyone’s nerves are tense. If you are always in this kind of extreme fear, maybe people will
It will drive you crazy.
The fat man turned around and said, "It seems we can't delay like this any longer. Professor Chen, I advise you and your students not to study those things for the time being. Let's search this place quickly and get out early."
The fat man made sense, but as soon as he finished speaking, I saw a very strange expression on the faces of Professor Chen and others, and then they began to look at each other secretly.
Hiss... I immediately felt that Fatty's previous guess was correct. It was definitely not as simple as finding someone for this group of people to come down. However, an archaeological team, now without a task assigned by their superiors, was not here to
Looking for someone, what are you here for?
Thinking of this, I quickly stopped myself. Damn it, why do I get so many doubts as soon as I enter a place like this?
"Well, Mr. Cao is right, let's not delay any longer." After Professor Chen finished speaking, everyone else walked towards the side door.
"I'll take a picture." Zhuge Xuan said, picked up the camera and pointed it at the stone couch.
I thought she was troublesome, so I stared at her, and just as I was about to mutter, the flash of the camera suddenly came on. At the same time, I saw a shining golden thing quickly crawling from the upper edge of the stone couch to the stone.
Behind the couch.
"What is that?" I shouted subconsciously, and then ran towards the stone couch.
