MTL - Tomb Raider: Bandit Chief-Chapter 45
Soon, everyone saw the scene in the back hall. There was only a six-legged bronze tripod in the empty hall.
There is also a copper cover on the copper tripod to seal the mouth, and there is a copper ring ear on each side of the big tripod. And the six legs of this bronze tripod are actually six divine beasts that look like unicorns. The shapes of the six divine beasts are all majestic and vigorous, with scales all over their bodies, bulging muscles, and a roaring posture with their mouths open.
In the copper tripod, there is still a pungent smell of fire and oil.
0...0
When asked about the taste, Chen Yulou immediately lost his smile.
He has seen this kind of copper tripod with the smell of fire nitrate a lot. As soon as the fire nitrate in the tripod comes into contact with the air, it will immediately ignite spontaneously, burning with grease.
The setting of this tripod is either a trap, or it contains the corpse that King Xian once sacrificed to.
There was not even a penny in it.
Thinking of this, Chen Yulou smiled helplessly.
It seems that the King Xian put all the bright objects, gold and jade that could be moved into the tomb. Only some necessary facilities and decorations remain in this palace.
Seeing this, Wei Chuan also comforted him a little.
"King Xian is the lord of a country after all, and there are not many burial objects. If there are none here, they were brought into the tomb by him. Muchen beads and gold and jade artifacts should all be in the main tomb of King Xian's tomb. "
"The nanmu purple gold beams and white jade steps outside the main hall are not cheap, at least they can match the harvest of two Pingshan Mountains."
Hearing Wei Chuan's words, Chen Yulou shook his head and laughed.
"I just can't figure it out. King Xian built this Lingyun Palace and didn't decorate it well. Didn't he want immortals to come to him... Even if there are immortals in this poor palace, they wouldn't look at it." Come up here."
"Immortals are not short of gold and silver, unless that immortal is from the Xiling faction, then they will definitely look down on this place."
Hearing this, Partridge Whistle also said something with a smile.
As soon as the voice of the partridge whistle fell, everyone immediately burst into laughter. work.
Chapter 92
Seeing that it was already noon, the group decided to rest for a while, and then go to the King Xian's Tomb after eating and drinking.
At this time, Wei Chuan found a place and took out the skin bag containing the dead bones and the fetal jade that he got in the gourd cave earlier.
After some pondering, I found out that these two things are useless, and only the clay pot and the fetal jade contained in it are worth some money, and I also recovered 200 luck points.

"Hey.. Really poor. Fortunately, after finishing the Tomb of the King, you can earn 33,000 as a guarantee. Where should you go next time? Jingjue Ancient City and Qingwuzi Tomb are both good."
Looking at his luck balance, Wei Chuan murmured softly.
For him, finding the Muchen Bead and Dragon Bone Book of Heaven was already a certainty, and he was very clear about what would happen later, and there was nothing difficult to deal with.
"Taoist three nails, but you can give it to Hualing for fun... Xinjue, the tomb robbery version is domineering..."
Just leaning against the palace door and thinking, Wei Chuan quickly narrowed his eyes.
…
"Master Wei...we always invite you over..."
After squinting for an unknown amount of time, Wei Chuan raised his eyebrows when he heard a slight sound of footsteps. At the same time, Hua Maguai called softly.
"Um."
Wei Chuan nodded, opened his eyes, and walked towards the front of the hall.
"Brother Wei!"
Seeing Wei Chuan's arrival, Chen Yulou and Partridge Whistle greeted him together.
"Brother Wei, the idea of presenting the king is different from that of ordinary emperors. The underground palace was not built under the Ming Tower. I didn't find any mechanism or tomb door when I searched under the cliff."
"Brother Wei has to be asked to make a move!"
Hearing this, Wei Chuan nodded, looked up into the sky, and raised the corner of his mouth. "Don't worry too much, there are still a few days."
When the two saw Wei Chuan looking up at the sky, they followed Wei Chuan's line of sight.
However, when they saw the appearance in that sky, they both exclaimed in surprise.
"The black pig crosses the river!"
I saw a thick and long black cloud appearing in the western sky, like a black dragon across the sky, or like black water from the sky and the Milky Way rushing down, gradually blackening the entire sky, the sky and the earth were connected by the black dragon, As if connected as one.
"This celestial phenomenon is often recorded in ancient books. The black dragon pierces through the sky and connects the sky and the earth. In the celestial phenomenon, this is the crime of the Marquis of Rain. According to Feng Shui, it means that there are ancient corpses haunting this place...just corpses Qi can break through yin and yang, covering the sky and the sun!"
The more Chen Yulou said, the more ugly his face became.
Whether it's the Marquis of Yu's crime or the ancient corpse, it's not good news.
You must know that the terrain here is extremely low, not to mention the torrential rain of the Marquis of the Rain, even a light rain can flood the exit of the gourd cave.
But at this time, he didn't even find the entrance to the King Xian's Tomb... If the flood came, he had no choice but to evacuate first.
Even Wei Chuan had a strange expression on his face.
This celestial phenomenon that the Marquis of Yu commits crimes is not common, and he is not the protagonist like Lao Hu, so why did he also meet this black pig crossing the river... Is this a coincidence or the destiny of muchen bead...
Thinking of this, Wei Chuan also decided to go to the tomb as soon as possible and leave Zhelong Mountain before the heavy rain came.
So he didn't hold back anymore, and said directly to Chen Yulou and Partridge Whistle:
"The main eye of the water dragon is the water pool below the cliff. If King Xian wants to ride a dragon to ascend to the sky, then his tomb must be higher than the water pool, and it must be on both sides of the mountain wall above the water pool."
"The mountain on the right is just the body of a dragon, and Lingyun Hall faces south. Judging from the orientation of the murals in Huixian Hall, the tomb of the king should be in the belly of Beishan!"
"That's right below the Gourd Cave. I think...the entrance to the King Xian's Tomb is at the bottom of the pool, from the bottom of the pool up to the mountainside!"
After hearing this, the two of them felt a bit of approval in their hearts...
After all, they searched all over the place, and the only possibility left was the pool under the cliff!
"Okay, we'll know as soon as we get into the water. If there's nothing we can do, we'd better go out of Zhelong Mountain to avoid the black pig crossing the river. If the rain comes, we may be stuck here by the flood."
So, a group of people waited and walked down the hall, came to a cliff path, and walked slowly towards the bottom of the cliff along the path.
After walking along the plank road for more than ten minutes, a group of people descended to the bottom of the cliff.
What appeared in front of him was a huge pool of water. The water looked clean, but it was unfathomable.
"Brother Wei, Brother Chen, let me go down and have a look first!"
As soon as he walked to the pool, Partridge Whistle stood up directly with a serious expression on his face.
With the much dust bead right in front of his eyes, it is absolutely impossible for him to shrink back. At this moment, he only trusts his own eyes, and he will not be at ease if he doesn't go into the water to check it out himself.
"Brother Dao, be more careful! If there is any change underwater, just pull the rope!"
Seeing this, Chen Yulou nodded solemnly, and ordered his men to tie a rope around Partridge Whistle's waist. He also gave Partridge Whistle a flashlight hat.
This pool is formed by the convergence of dozens of waterfalls, but after thousands of years, the water level has not risen much, which means that there must be an underground channel or dark hole under the pool, which sucked the water from the pool.
Therefore, the bottom of the pool is definitely not as calm as the surface of the pool. Whether it is waterproof rice dumplings or water whirlpools, it is the safest to tie a safety rope.
(The computer is broken, and the new one will arrive in a few days. In the past two days, I can only type on my mobile phone.. uncomfortable.).
Chapter 93
After making enough preparations, the partridge whistle jumped directly into the pool. Everyone couldn't help, so they could only hold on to the other end of the safety rope.
Looking at the clear and calm pool, Wei Chuan began to think.
In fact, there is really no danger in this pool, there are no ghosts of zongzi, only some carps live there. The only thing that needs to be careful is the water eye whirlpool in the deepest part of the pool.
The entrance of the cave is indeed at the bottom of the pool, but there are also two entrances at the bottom of the pool.
One leads to the foundry workshop of Xian Wang, and the other leads to the main tomb of Xian Wang's tomb, and the entrance of the main tomb is at the bottom of the pool near the vortex of the water eye.
In less than two minutes, the partridge whistle came out of the water with a happy face.
Seeing Partridge Whistle's expression, everyone knew that Partridge Whistle had found the entrance to the tomb, otherwise Partridge Whistle would not be so excited.
Wei Chuan knew it in his heart, but it was impossible to tell everyone directly that the entrance found by Partridge Whistle led to the forging workshop, and there was no way to explain it at that time.
So Wei Chuan could only follow the crowd into the water, and Quan 13 thought it was time to warm up.
As soon as they entered the water, they could feel a cool breath coming from the water. Under the leadership of the partridge whistle, a group of people came to a stone wall.
On the stone wall were engraved several statues of tomb-guarding beasts, as well as a mural of Muchen Bead.
Partridge Whistle made a careful gesture, then swam to the stone wall and pressed **** a stone carving of Muchen Bead.
Click..
Accompanied by the vibration, there was a crisp sound of the mechanism.
I saw that the whole stone wall fell inward, exposing the deep and dark hole inside, and the hole was also filled with pond water, otherwise the group of people would have to be washed into the hole by the pond water.
Seeing this, Partridge Whistle swam in without even thinking about it.
Everyone paddled to keep up, and after swimming into the entrance of the cave, they realized that the entrance of the cave was a steep stone road going upwards. There are also many stone carvings on both sides of the stone road, all about the town tomb, and everyone has no intention of understanding it.
After two steps, everyone came out of the water.
I saw a huge stone platform in front of me, and I could see many statues standing on the stone platform tens of meters away.
In the center of the stone platform, there is also a small pool, in which there are some bronze figures, chariots and horses half submerged in the water.
Upon closer inspection, these bronze figures, chariots and horses are exactly the same as the guards in the previous painting Xianwangshengtian. And the ones standing on the stone platform are the civil servants and military generals in the palace.
"No, the specifications of these bronze statues are wrong."
Suddenly, Chen Yulou frowned and climbed onto the stone platform, his eyes scanning the bronze statues.
"People don't hold weapons, and horses can't match whips. The number of bronze men and bronze horses in this team is actually only in their early twenties, but a king like Xian Wang must have at least four poles to clear the way... here is quite a small number nearly half."
"And these bronze statues are also flawed..."
"Be careful! There are a lot of mummified corpses ahead! There must be hundreds of them!"
At this moment, two guys ran back from the back of the aisle, and when they saw Chen Yulou, they shouted.
"Hundreds of them? Brother Wei, Brother Dao, go and have a look!"
Chen Yulou's expression froze, and he said something to Wei Chuan and Partridge Whistle.
From the time of the Calabash Cave, he has seen all kinds of food wheels.
Only Wei Chuan knew in his heart that there was nothing dirty in this cave, it was just a workshop.
After a group of people walked to the cave, they saw countless mummies of men lying on the ground, as if they had been discarded at random. These mummies had their ears cut off, their eyes gouged out, and their bodies were covered with a thick layer of wax.
Seeing this, everyone also understood that this is a person who died after being severely punished.
Ordinary emperors were buried, even if they were buried with living people, they would not be subjected to such severe punishments. If these mummified corpses were not slaves, they would be felons.
Partridge Whistle's expression darkened when he saw that there were no more secret passages and dark holes in the cave.
"Tomb passage..not here.."
Seeing the lost appearance of Partridge Whistle, Xiling and the others couldn't stand it anymore. After all, moving mountains to find things is to save lives. Unlike their pursuit of money, the most is to earn less.
At this time, Wei Chuan came to the crowd, smiled and patted the partridge whistle.
"The tomb passage is not here, but it's not far from here."
"Brother Wei, what can you see?"
Hearing Wei Chuan's words, Chen Yulou and Partridge Whistle's eyes lit up.
