Everyone came to the third floor of the stone pagoda, where they saw the giant pupil stone statue from before, no matter the shape or the workmanship style, they were exactly the same as the previous one.
The giant pupil stone statue is located on the third floor of the stone tower, and its status is higher than that of ordinary people.
Everyone couldn't wait to go up to the fourth floor of the stone tower. Surprisingly, the stone statue on this floor turned out to be a statue with a human head and a snake body, with thick limbs, holding a shield and a sharp sword. Ferocious, with angry eyes wide open, there is even an eye on the top of the head, looking neither human nor ghost.
Professor Chen said in admiration, "This seems to be the patron saint of the Jingjue Kingdom, with an eye growing on his head. It seems that the ancient Jingjue people's worship of eyes has reached an almost incomprehensible level. Queen Jingjue His status has indeed been deified, and he is still above the patron saint. Come on, let's go up and see if the stone statue on the upper floor is the Queen of Essence!"
Everyone excitedly came to the fifth floor of the stone pagoda. To everyone's surprise, there was nothing on this floor, not even a base for placing stone statues.
The fat man thought that the stone statue was carried away by thieves. Professor Chen told everyone that this layer was originally nothingness, representing an imaginary space.
The crowd didn't stay too long, and came to the top of the stone tower, where they saw a veiled female statue.
This stone statue is exactly the same as the Queen Jingjue in the murals that I saw in the tomb of Prince Gumo before. Everyone immediately confirmed that this stone statue was carved with Queen Jingjue.
Chapter 369 The Underground Ghost Cave
Seeing that the statue of the queen was wrapped in a veil, everyone was discussing, what does the queen look like?
Hu Bayi said puzzledly: "What kind of medicine is sold in the gourd of the Jingjue Queen, and even a statue doesn't show her true colors?"
The fat man said disdainfully: "Oh, if I look at it, she looks ugly! If she is not ugly, why hide it from others to see, afraid that she will lose a piece of flesh just by looking at her?"
The fat man paused, touched his chin again and said, "But... this figure is okay, it should be convex, it should be warped, the plate is not good, the strip is still there."
Hu Bayi scolded: "Fatty, you bastard, just accumulate some evil virtues. Others have been dead for thousands of years, and you still put her here to hurt her? If this queen is really like the one in the legend, look at what she means. It might pop out from nowhere and bite you!"
Sydney glared at the two of them: "Okay, don't talk nonsense if you don't understand, let's listen to what the professor has to say."
Everyone noticed that Professor Chen seldom spoke since he went up to the 6th floor of this ancient pagoda. His eyes kept staring at the statue of Queen Jingjue, as if he was meditating on something.
Seeing people asking questions, Professor Chen explained: "The queen doesn't want to show her true colors. I don't think anyone can answer this question. There are too many mysteries about her. For example, she is a witch in the legend, so she will What kind of magic? Is it true that people will disappear when you look at them? Also, no one knows the cause of her death, and we can't study anything from these statues. Maybe we have to find her coffin before we can get out of it. Find some clues in the epitaph."
When Professor Chen said this, everyone's curiosity was immediately aroused. The Queen Jingjue is really too mysterious. It can be said that she is a woman full of doubts. No one knows where her coffin is buried.
The fat man said: "I think she is a woman who likes to play tricks. As for why she stares at others with her eyes, they will disappear strangely. I think this must be a way to spread rumors and fool the people. If you really have that ability, why don't you tell me At that time, the Great Han Dynasty was destroyed, wouldn't it be good for her to come to be the overlord of the world?"
Professor Chen said: "It is rumored that she will be able to perform magic tricks. In my opinion, she is really pretending to be a ghost. For example, the emperors in the Central Plains all said that they were the real dragon emperors and were ordered by the heavens, but what happened in reality? It’s all clear, I just dare not say it.”
Everyone checked around the top floor again, but they couldn't find anything worthy of research, so they went down the stone tower.
Professor Chen told everyone that Queen Jingjue's tomb is most likely buried in a ghost cave underground, because she is also a member of the ghost cave clan and has always followed the inheritance ceremony of the ghost cave clan.
The crowd didn't stay any longer, and after going back to pack up their equipment, they went to the secret passage discovered yesterday under the leadership of Chen Hao and others. After walking for more than half an hour, they came to the underground river.
Professor Chen looked at the turbulent dark river and said, "Brother Chen, how about the geomantic pattern under the ground? Is it suitable for burying people?"
Chen Hao heard the words, looked around, and said: "The wind gathers energy here, the ground is supported by black dragons, and the underground river flows continuously, forming a pattern of dragons surrounded by ninety-five kings, which is the highest pursuit of the emperors of all dynasties. "
Hearing his analysis, Hu Bayi quickly compared the sixteen-character yin-yang feng shui technique, and combined with what Chen Hao just said, suddenly realized.
He looked at Chen Hao and said: "This is indeed a rare Ninth Five-Year position. If you don't say that I haven't discovered it yet. According to the trend of this underground river, in my opinion, the place with the most abundant dragon energy should be Downstream of this underground river."
Hu Ba had done some research on Fengshui theory. After hearing what he said, Chen Hao nodded and said, "That's right, the place where the dragon energy is most abundant is where the precious eye is located in the whole pattern."
Professor Chen asked in surprise: "Brother Chen, I understand that the tomb of Queen Jingjue must be in Baoyan. Let's go and see it."
Everyone does not stop!Pack your gear!Follow the lower reaches of the underground river all the way down.
After walking down for a few hundred meters, a cliff suddenly appeared in front of him. There was a huge cave on the other side of the river. A huge stone door at the entrance of the cave was half-hidden, and it was pitch black inside.
"What's that place?" asked the fat man.
"Under the cliff is a deep pool. This is a place where dragon energy gathers. Inside should be the tomb of Queen Jingjue." Chen Hao said.
Sydney looked at him and asked, "Mr. Chen! The river is so fast, how do we get there?"
"When building the Queen's Mausoleum, a lot of craftsmen and building materials must have been used. They must have a passage for carrying stone materials." Chen Hao said calmly.
As he said that, he kept looking around, and soon found a stone tablet by the river. Half of the stone tablet was submerged in the water, and the remaining half was exposed on the water.
Chen Hao walked towards the stone tablet quickly, and saw several large ghost cave characters carved on the stone tablet, and he couldn't understand what was written on it.
There are no more than 10 people in the world who can understand the writing of the Ghost Cave Clan. At this time, experts are needed. Chen Hao hurriedly asked Professor Chen to come over and look at the writing on the stone tablet.
Everyone helped Professor Chen to the front of the stele. He squatted down to look at the words carefully, and translated: "The resting place of the queen, the disturber, there is no dead body!"
Hearing this, the fat man spat out a mouthful of thick phlegm and said, "Damn! Why are you so arrogant when people are dead? The fat man sees her as a way to save face, but... the archaeologists are not afraid of ghosts, and they are not afraid of ghosts. I want to see Look, how she let me die without a whole body!"
"Little Fatty, your courage is commendable, so why don't you show us how to cross the river?" Hu Bayi looked at him and asked.
"Don't worry, let the fat man think of a way..." The fat man scratched his head and said.
Chen Hao looked at the stone tablet carefully, and found that there seemed to be something wrong with the word (death) in it. The inscription was obviously deeper than the other words. He felt that there should be a mechanism hidden on it.
Thinking of this, he quickly asked everyone to step aside, walked to the river by himself, stretched out his two fingers, and touched every word on the stone tablet, and found that the word "death" really had another mystery.
Everyone didn't notice this, because the stone tablet was covered with moss, and it was hard to detect unless you looked carefully. Chen Hao picked the dead word with two fingers, and the stone tablet vibrated immediately.
In the next second, rows of stone steps suddenly rose from the river, leading to the cave on the opposite side of the river. It turned out that the passage to cross the river was hidden on the stone tablet.
Stretching out his hand to touch the stone steps, he found that they were very solid. Chen Hao took the lead and walked up, and soon reached the entrance of the opposite cave.
There was no hidden weapon triggered along the way, so Chen Hao called everyone to follow.
Chapter 3 Corpse Fragrant Konjac
Entering the cave, a huge underground cave with a diameter of more than ten kilometers appears in front of you. There is an abyss underneath.
"Ding! An epic-level spirit body, an ancient spirit, has been detected, with a strength value of 8. You can get achievement points if you kill it."
Hearing the system notification tone, Chen Hao was stunned for a moment. It was the first time he had heard of Lingmei. What was so special about it?
On the wall of the cave, there is an artificially dug passage, which is no more than 15 meters wide. Outside is the abyss. When people walk on it, their calves can't help but spin.
Everyone glanced into the abyss, feeling the cool wind blowing up from the bottom, they couldn't help but gasped, and they involuntarily backed away.
The fat man gasped and said: "I am a grandma! How deep must the bottom be for such a big hole? Where do you think this hole leads to? I guess if you jump from here, you will reach the country of America in a while."
Everyone pretended not to hear the fat man's nonsense, and Sydney said: "Maybe this is the ancestral land of the ghost cave people. They have been living around this huge cave, longing for a pair of eyes that can see through the ghost cave. This should be their The origin of the worship of the eyes."
Satipon has always been fond of studying aliens. He asked, "Teacher, professor, do you think this cave is connected to another world, and will there be aliens there?"
Hao Aiguo glared at him and said, "Little Sa, what are you talking about? What aliens? How many times has the teacher told you that you should treat things scientifically, and everything can be explained and reasoned with science. "
Professor Chen said with a smile: "Patriotic, what Xiao Sa said is that there is no such possibility. In our archaeological career, we should make bold assumptions and earnestly verify everything, so as not to limit one's imagination."
Professor Chen pointed to the huge ghost cave again, and said: "The existence of such a huge cave is illogical. If you insist on explaining it with science, everything will not stand up to scrutiny. The ancients admired the power of nature. This The huge burrow is worshiped and sacrificed by them as a miracle, and maybe there really is an imaginary space under it. Before everything is proven, don’t easily deny a thing.”
