Chen Hao didn't have time to talk nonsense with her, so he slashed twice, cutting off the two branches hanging from Xueli and Hu Bayi, and the two of them also fell to the ground.
At this time, the jade coffin had already been burned into a sea of flames. In addition, there were many plant roots attached to the inner and outer sides of the coffin, many of which had withered. .
Chen Hao didn't dare to linger, and hurriedly performed lightness kung fu to float on the water and flew to the ground.
Fortunately, no one was injured. They hurriedly packed up the equipment of the camp, and moved all the tents, supplies, and equipment far away, so as not to be burned to ashes with the old banyan tree.
Half an hour later, the two old banyan trees were completely ignited. The flames were dozens of meters high. Fortunately, the surrounding area was humid and there were not many plants. Otherwise, I was worried that the entire valley would be burned.
Chapter 4 and Chapter [-] Mausoleum
The fire burned for more than an hour before it was extinguished. After the two banyan trees collapsed, a large crack opened from the ground, revealing a huge stone turtle.
The stone tortoise has a strange appearance, and it carries a huge stone tablet on its back. Its claws are very sharp, and its mouth is full of fangs. It looks a bit like a squid.
The fat man clicked his tongue and said, "Damn it, why put such a big tortoise here? Could it be a tomb-slayer?"
Hu Bayi said: "Little Fatty, if you say you haven't changed, you still beat him to death and refuse to admit it, what is this called a turtle, this is called Bi Xi, one of the nine sons of the dragon."
Xueli looked at the stone turtle seriously, and said to everyone: "This is not Bixi, it seems to be Jiaotu, and it is also one of the nine sons of the dragon. You can see that its tortoise shell has clear texture, and some of them resemble eyeballs. There are also sharp claws and fangs, which are not there. The ancient Dian Kingdom and the Central Plains are different, so this Jiaotu looks different from the Central Plains."
Xue Li explained to everyone: "There are records in ancient books that the pepper map is closed in nature and has the meaning of town house to ward off evil spirits. The function of this pepper map is mainly to suppress the evil spirits near the king's tomb, so it was buried outside the king's tomb. The reason why I deduce this is based on the stone tablet it carries on its back, I guess the stone tablet should be written on the mausoleum of the king's tomb."
With that said, Xueli walked towards the Jiaotu, and everyone hurried to follow.
Jiaotu was more than three meters high, so everyone had to jump on Jiaotu's back and look at the stele carefully. There were indeed many strange characters written on it.
These are all characters unique to the Dian Kingdom. Except for Xueli, Chen Hao and the three of them couldn't understand them. Xueli took photos of all the characters on the stele, and asked Professor Chen to study them carefully after returning home.
While carefully identifying the words above, Sydney translated for everyone.
The mausoleum first stated that the ancient Dian Kingdom was actually three counties established during the Qin Shihuang period. During the turmoil in the late Qin and early Han Dynasties, the leaders of the three counties chose to close the country and no longer contact with outsiders.
Later, the great Han established the hegemony of the world, but at that time, they were only busy cleaning up the Huns, and had no chance to pay attention to the ancient Dian Kingdom, so they let them develop.
Later, in the period of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty learned that the King of Dian had an ancient divine bead, the Muchen Bead, and sent an envoy to ask the King of Dian for it.
The Muchen Bead was a sacred object of the ancient Dian Kingdom, and it had always been owned by the Ancient Dian Kingdom. Disagreements arose within the country. Finally, King Xian left the Ancient Dian Kingdom with the Muchen Bead, and his family moved to the high mountains in the west of Yunnan. Living in seclusion, the king of Dian had no choice but to pay tribute to Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty with a fake shadow pearl.
Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty was not so easy to fool. After the beads returned, he asked someone to appraise them and found that they were fake. Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty sent a large army to suppress the ancient Dian Kingdom. The ancient Dian Kingdom disappeared. In the long river of history.
Seeing this, Sydney said: "It turns out that not all the records in the history books are true. At least the records on the mausoleum should be more authentic. Back then, Emperor Wu of the Han sacked the ancient Dian Kingdom in the name of suppressing the barbarians. It was for the Muchen Bead, and the bead that flowed out from his mausoleum was actually a Shadow Bead. In other words, the real Muchen Bead was indeed in the hands of King Xian. came to the right place."
Fatty and Hu Bayi were slightly excited after hearing Xue Li's explanation. As long as they could get the life-saving bead, the terrible curse on them would be lifted, and they were naturally looking forward to it.
What follows on the stele is all about Xian Wang.
King Xian did not know from which ancient book he learned that using the Muchen Bead can cultivate into an immortal, but he needs to find a suitable place to dissect his body and become an immortal, so he was reluctant to part with this bead, and he did not hesitate to turn against King Xian and leave ancient Yunnan. Kingdom, the purpose is to take this bead to study the secret of becoming a fairy.
It took a total of 27 years to build the Tomb of the King Xian, and chose a place of immortality in the eyes of Feng Shui magicians. The manpower for the construction was about 10 people, almost all of his manpower, most of whom were slaves and captives.
The mausoleum ended here, without mentioning anything about the underground palace, or whether King Xian was dissected into immortals after his death.
The fat man saw that there was no record of the funeral objects on the stele, so he couldn't help cursing, saying that Mr. Xian Wang is a person who hides his head and shows his tail. He didn't even list the artifacts. It is absolutely impossible to become a fairy. It is estimated that his body is covered with Hei Mao became a big rice dumpling.
Everyone went around to look at the back of the stele, and saw a magnificent and dreamy relief on the back, an incomparably majestic and magnificent palace, standing above the colorful clouds, looking like a palace in the sky.
"This is the tomb of King Xian? Could it be that his tomb was built in the sky?" the fat man asked.
Hu Bayi said firmly: "This is absolutely impossible. If he can really build a building in the sky, then wouldn't he really become a fairy to have such a method?"
Sydney also said: "This is indeed impossible, otherwise it would violate the laws of physics, and I don't believe that there will be places in this world that violate the principles of physics. I guess it depicts the good wish of Xian Wang, or there are other reasons." refer to."
The fat man scolded: "Old man Xian Wang is so crazy that he wants to become a fairy. He also wants to build his own underground palace in the sky. Why don't he bury it on the moon?"
Hu Bayi said: "Looking at the carvings on it, this tomb should be built in a water dragon halo, that is, in a deep pool under a waterfall. The mist is refracted by sunlight to form such a dreamy auspicious cloud. And The palace we see is actually the mausoleum of the mausoleum, that is, the Minglou used for sacrifices."
The engraving on it undoubtedly pointed out the way for everyone, and everyone quickly took out the human skin map to compare the route, and found that the next section of the road corresponded to a toad-like monster.
This route is the route for the people of Xianwang to worship in his Minglou every once in a while, which can effectively avoid those poisonous miasmas.
However, the person who drew this human-skin map only knew some features of the outer part of Xianwang's tomb, and did not know the real secrets inside. In the future, this human-skin map is actually useless.
Chen Hao recalled the route in the original book, and said to everyone: "The underground palace is built under the deep pool of the water dragon. We can follow the water all the way forward. If we find the waterfall, we should be able to find the King Xian's Tomb."
After hearing what he said, everyone nodded and said yes, the human skin map has lost its effect, and they can only adapt to the situation at this time.
Everyone packed their equipment, ate some water and dry food casually, and moved forward along the lower reaches of the Snake River Valley.
Chapter 4 Arrives at the Insect Valley
After walking like this for five hours, some relics of bricks and tiles suddenly appeared in front of them. Everyone stepped forward to identify them, and found that they were the Shinto of Xianwang's tomb, but they had been demolished for some reason.
When they finally saw the tomb of King Xian, everyone couldn't help but lift up their spirits and prepared to find a flat place to rest.
When I came to Taniguchi, I found two huge bare stones on the side, surrounded by no grass, which looked very strange.
Both stones are dotted with black paint. From a suitable angle, it looks like a pair of piercing and majestic eyes, staring at everyone entering the valley.
Everyone's watches and compasses had already failed when they were on the periphery, and now they came here, and the hands kept spinning.
Xueli stepped forward to look at the two stones carefully, and said to everyone: "These are two meteorites that have been divided into two, which can affect all nearby electronic equipment. The crash of the armed transport plane was probably affected by the meteorite." Orientation, so that there is an accident crash."
The fat man took out a radio from his backpack, and when he turned it on, there was a rattling noise, and he scolded: "It's so fucking strange, I don't know how much the market price for this kind of stone is per catty, otherwise , we can knock a few pieces and take them back to study and study."
Hu Bayi hurriedly stopped him and said, "Don't mess around, chubby, I heard that some meteorites have radiation, once they are exposed to radiation, their hair will fall off, and their whole body will rot and die!"
Xue Li said beside him: "These two meteorites should have no radiation, not all meteorites have radiation. These two stones should be moved here by King Xian. You see, there are no craters around here, which means It was not in this position before. But before the matter is clear, I advise you not to touch it."
Fatty seemed a little reconciled, he had obtained a few genuine gold artifacts from the old banyan tree before, so he gave up, saying that he would not be able to get along in the future, so he would study these few stones again.
In the valley was a field of flowering trees. After traveling for a long time, everyone was exhausted mentally and physically, so they camped and rested next to the Shinto relics.
Tonight may be their last chance to rest. Starting tomorrow, they will formally enter the Xianwang Tomb. They will encounter many accidents on the way. They are all desperate activities, and they must recharge their energy tonight.
Last time it was Chen Hao who was in charge of the night watch. He didn't rest all night. This time it was Hu Bayi and Fatty's turn to be on duty. Chen Hao lay down in his sleeping bag and slept with his head covered until dawn.
In the early morning of the next day, Chen Hao got up early, and saw Xueli cooking noodles beside him. The rising sun illuminated the flowers and plants in the insect valley, which was truly charming.
After breakfast, everyone continued to move towards the depths of the valley. As the terrain gradually lowered, the surrounding area began to become humid, and many ferns appeared. Countless vines hung on the cliffs on both sides of the valley, like a bird. Only the blue flowers in the sky.
Due to the narrow terrain, all kinds of plants desperately strive for living space and grow upwards. People walking in the valley can't see the situation in the distance at all.
The place is extremely humid and hot, and everyone can see green plants. After a long time, it is inevitable that everything they see with their eyes is green.
And because the density of plants is getting higher and higher, there are a lot of insects, snakes and ants in many flowers and plants. For safety, everyone had to take out their weapons to clear the way and drive those insects, snakes and ants away.
For Chen Hao, his biggest obstacle was the vines and thorns that grew upside down, and for Fatty and the others, the bigger obstacle was the harassment of mosquitoes.
