Xiao Zhang seemed a little eager to give it a try. He couldn't wait to see the contents of the second half of the mural and see what the object being worshiped was.
However, Xiao Zhang did not act rashly before getting permission.
Liu Ruyan also looked at Zhou Sheng, waiting for his decision.
Zhou Sheng could not tell at this moment whether it would be beneficial or harmful to them if all the murals were revealed.
Will a dangerous mechanism be triggered after all the wall tiles are removed?
Or maybe the content of the mural is a reminder to avoid danger?
Zhou Sheng now somewhat understands the feelings of those tomb robbers. For them, whether every decision is right or wrong contains an element of gambling.
Compared to gambling, Zhou Sheng still prefers the feeling of being able to directly control the overall situation.
He said slightly cautiously: "Tour guide, you just said that you have seen the lampstand here being lit?"
Qi Ziyu nodded quickly: "I remember very clearly that all the lampstands were on at that time. It was like I was back in the human world. I stared at the fire for a long time and couldn't take my eyes away."
"Because I looked directly at the light source for too long, it seemed to have caused some damage to my eyes. Whenever I encountered strong light, it would be very painful. Until now, my eyes have not completely recovered."
Judging from Qi Ziyu's expression, he didn't look like he was lying.
Zhou Sheng asked: "If lighting the menorah is the condition that triggers the wall bricks to fall, then why did the wall bricks not fall when all the menorahs were lit?"
Zhou Sheng's question made everyone think. It seems that the condition for the wall bricks to peel off is not lighting the menorah, or lighting the menorah is not the only condition.
"Tour guide, what did you do besides lighting the lamp just now?" Xiao Zhang asked.
Except for Qi Ziyu who ran to the lampstand just now, everyone else obeyed the instructions and did not move or touch.
Therefore, if there are any other conditions that need to be met, it can only be because Qi Ziyu did something unintentionally.
The mechanism designed by Zhou Sheng to scare people away did not stop the curiosity of professors and students, but taught them to act with caution.
If it were not long ago, with Xiao Zhang's character, he might just go up and light the menorah and try it. ωωw.
Now, Xiao Zhang has understood that "try it" is just a helpless move when there is nothing to do.
Acting cautiously here is not a sign of cowardice, but a sign of responsibility for your own life!
Qi Ziyu thought for a while and replied: "I also wiped the lampshade, does it count?"
There is no doubt that there must be some kind of design on the lampstand. They, the descendants, can only explore the ideas of their predecessors when designing.
However, for some people, this kind of exploration and exploration itself is like discussing and communicating with the wisdom of predecessors, which is not interesting.
Zhou Sheng told a few people to wait for a while, and then roughly searched the entire tomb.
If the masonry on the wall is covered with such murals, then in order to ensure the integrity of the picture, it will be difficult to design any mechanism on the wall.
Then the only places where there is danger are the ceiling and the floor.
Different from the neatly laid green and brown bricks and stones all around, the top of the head and the ground are still brown earth without any decoration.
After Zhou Sheng searched around, he found that there was only a slightly raised place on the ground in the center of the tomb.
Judging from the decoration of the entire tomb, this is obviously not the location of the main tomb.
Zhou Sheng believed that the bulge in the central underground area was probably a downward passage leading to other tomb chambers.
In other words, there is a high probability that there are no other mechanisms in this room.
Thinking of this, Zhou Sheng said: "Tour guide, follow the action just now and light the lamp on the right again."
Qi Ziyu took out a red candle again. He brought more than thirty red candles.
However, except for a few of them that are contaminated with joy and dragon energy and have the effect of warding off evil spirits, the others are just candles that can be seen everywhere in the market.
Qi Ziyu walked carefully to the lampstand, gently wiped the lampshade with her hand, then lit the red candle and let the candle tears fall on the bottom of the lampstand.
Then, he held the candle upright with his hand and waited for the wax tears to cool down.
But for some reason, a few tears also leaked out of the corners of Qi Ziyu's eyes.
Qi Ziyu felt that the corners of her eyes were a little sore and couldn't help but raise her hand to rub them.
But the more he rubbed it, the scene in front of him seemed to become blurrier, the candle in front of him seemed to have turned into a double image, and the halo in front of him gradually became blurred.
Immediately afterwards, Qi Ziyu felt that the thoughts in his head became very confusing, and he felt dizzy. He stumbled a few steps to the side as if he could not stand still, and even knocked down the red candle on the lampstand.
Seeing that something was wrong, Zhou Sheng and Xiao Zhang and Xiao Wang quickly grabbed the rope and pulled Qi Ziyu back.
Before this operation, Qi Ziyu had already tied the rope around his waist. Zhou Sheng and two students had been holding the rope tightly behind him to ensure that he could be pulled away as soon as possible if something unexpected happened.
The combined strength of the three young men was obviously a bit terrifying. They actually pulled Qi Ziyu flying up, drew a parabola in mid-air, and fell in front of the three of them.
Xiao Wang caught him and prevented Qi Ziyu from hitting the ground hard.
So far, the wall remains motionless.
They had been staring closely at the movement on the wall, but they did not expect that Qi Ziyu would be hit unknowingly.
Tears were still flowing from Qi Ziyu's eyes, and she seemed to be stunned. No matter how others called her, she didn't respond at all.
Zhou Sheng said quickly: "Hold your breath! Get out!"
With that said, he picked up the unresponsive Qi Ziyu and ran outside.
Xiao Zhang and Xiao Wang also quickly picked up the professor and ran out. Liu Ruyan's reaction naturally did not lag behind theirs.
But even though he ran outside the tomb as quickly as possible, Zhou Sheng already began to feel his eyes sore.
As for Xiao Wang, who seemed to be in poor health, his steps had begun to falter and his whole body was shaking.
"What, what on earth is going on?" Xiao Zhang asked in confusion. As he spoke, a tear fell from the corner of his eye.
Zhou Sheng said succinctly: "Poisonous."
Then, he quickly covered his mouth and nose with a wet towel, and several others quickly followed suit.
It seems that Qi Ziyu still did something wrong, so the mural was not exposed. Instead, the toxins filled the air and made everyone feel uncomfortable.
This poison is obviously not only spread through breathing, but also penetrates into the human body through the eyeball mucosa and skin.
Although Zhou Sheng had covered his mouth and nose and closed his eyes, the discomfort was getting worse and worse.
Previously, Zhou Sheng was still wondering why there was no door to this tomb and they could enter directly through the corridor.
Now he finally understands that once there is a door, they can easily isolate the poisonous gas in the tomb after running out!
