Chapter 344: Counter attack at the end of the tunnel
"Yes, then Dongxia may be a small border country, but this place is an imperial mausoleum, not a place for children's play."
"The quantity and decoration of all the burial objects in the burial pits are very particular. Anyone who dares to do this will have the heads of the nine tribes chopped off by Emperor Wannu!"
The fat man also knew this and found it strange.
You know, the ancients were very particular about the afterlife and there could not be any mistakes.
The arrangement of everything has its own knowledge.
Feng Shui and tombology are very rigorous studies. If something goes a little wrong, a good auspicious point will turn into a bad point.
This is no joke.
"These things should be guarding something underground. As for what they are specifically...what do you think?"
Hu Ming was silent.
The Dongxia Dynasty of King Wannu has been stationed here since it split from the Mother Kingdom of the West.
This time can be traced back to four to five thousand years ago, and its origin far exceeds the era recorded in the so-called history.
However, in the distant era, the Dongxia Dynasty did not exist, but existed as a tribe.
"I guess?"
Wu Xie and others looked at Hu Ming with a dark look on their faces, feeling unsatisfied.
To be honest, Wu Xie was really tired of being "played" and led by the nose by Wu Sansheng in various ways. Wu Xie was really tired of this kind of showdown, knowing everything but unwilling to say it.
But there was nothing he could do. Wu Xie thought about it and found sadly that neither his third uncle nor Hu Ming could do anything about it.
"On one point, your third uncle and I have completely the same point of view. My eldest nephew, there are too many secrets in this world, and many shocking events are buried in the torrent of time."
"Knowing too much is really not a good thing. If you still want to be innocent, don't be so persistent for a long time."
"Of course, if you make up your mind and make preparations, just pretend I didn't say anything."
Hu Ming smiled. He understood Wu Xie's feelings. This feeling of not knowing anything, being confused and unable to move forward was not pleasant.
But to be honest, innocence is not a kind of happiness?
Many times, people just know too much and are just looking for trouble.
But Hu Ming could never do that. For the so-called good of others, he forced others to follow the route he arranged.
Wu Xie is free to do whatever he wants.
"Panzi, have you seen the direction of the water in the moat back then?"
"As we follow the canal water to the end, the direction we are heading is undoubtedly the direction of the river water."
Patting Wu Xie, who looked heavy, Hu Ming came to Panzi and asked.
Panzi used to be in the field army, the type who had participated in actual combat. It was a basic skill to identify the past direction of the river from the dry river bed.
"Well, looking at the traces of water erosion on the stone figures, the direction of the water flow should be the direction they are facing..."
Panzi nodded and said affirmatively.
"That's good, just take a short rest and let's move on."
Hu Ming nodded and said softly.
If you think about it carefully, everyone has not rested for more than a day since they walked all the way through the secret passage under the Little Saint Snow Mountain Spiritual Palace.
...
...
After resting on the spot for a while, they packed up their equipment and then moved forward again.
Strangely enough, since arriving at the bottom of this moat, the human-faced birds circling in the sky have lost their traces and given up hunting everyone.
It was as if... there was something at the bottom of the river that frightened them from the bottom of their hearts.
Walking along the river bottom, there are human and horse figurines everywhere along the way.
These sculptures all face one direction, gradually going deeper into the ground.
In the end, all that was presented to Hu Ming and others was a head.
Part of the body was buried deep underground.
It is as if the direction of these human and horse warriors is towards the invisible underground.
"arrive!"
Suddenly, Hu Ming, who was walking at the front of the team, stopped and waved to the people behind him.
At this time, the river channel has reached its end, and the procession of human figurines has long disappeared. In front of it is a huge stone river wall blocking the way forward.
At the base of the stone wall, there is a square hole that is mostly buried by rubble.
The stone has been moved away quite a bit, revealing a dark hole.
"Another trap for counterattack?" Pan Zi asked in surprise: "How come the opening is here? This is impossible."
"How could it be impossible? You didn't fix it."
Fatty instinctively disagreed with Panzi. "No, I mean, this place was underwater back then, and this tunnel was at the bottom of the river. It must have been filled with river water. Do you think Wang Zanghai is a fish?"
Panzi shook his head and said.
When he got here, he was getting closer to Wu Sansheng, and he had no intention of arguing with the fat man.
"Have you forgotten the robbery cave in King Lu's Palace? It used to be a water robbery cave. The inside of this cave must be the same as the one there. There are air holes on it every other section."
Hu Ming explained casually.
"Uncle Ming, Panzi, Fatty, come and see, there is something here!"
At this time, Wu Xie spoke.
When the searchlight shone over, I could see someone roughly carving a few words on the stone on one side of the entrance to the square cave.
It is an English alphabet with no structure and no grammar.
"Do you think this is the mark that Third Uncle left for us, telling us the direction of progress?"
Wu Xie guessed and said.
"It's impossible. You don't know, Mr. Third, that he once said that he didn't know English."
Panzi shook his head in denial and said that he had followed Wu Sansheng for more than ten years. He knew very well that Wu Sansheng was good at various cipher texts in ancient China, but he had a little talent for this kind of foreign language. Wu Sansheng once told him that he did not know English.
"This is what little brother left behind." Hu Ming glanced at Fanzi and then said softly.
Hu Ming didn't believe what Fanzi said at all. You know, Wu Sansheng went to college and successfully graduated! Can't speak English? What a joke!
As for the one in front of me, I guess it was really left by my little brother!
In the undersea tomb, Wu Xie and the others had seen the mark left by their little brother, but they just didn't remember it for a while.
