Divine Burial

Chapter 34: The Mausoleum of the First Emperor (11)

Views:

On the high platform, metal flagpoles can be seen occasionally, but the top is bare, and everything has passed away with time.

In the Mausoleum of the First Emperor, there was no wind, but for some reason, there was light wind around the high platform from time to time. There was an unspeakable breath in the wind, as if it was the reluctance and comfort of the ancients who stayed here.

Looking at those altars, Ah San's eyes were clearly brighter. He is not afraid of hardships to go deep into the Mausoleum of the First Emperor, perhaps just to come to the altar to find some treasures. Now that the altar was in front of his eyes, he could not bear it for a long time. He was carried by a corpse of bronze armor, and jumped onto the high platform to look around.

I saw Lien Daozhen standing there motionless, and couldn't help but curiously asked, "Aren't you looking for it?"

Lian Daozhen shook his head and said, "There are very few valuable things here. Many of them seem strange, but they are broken and broken. When they are taken out, they are just bad iron."

"There is nothing dangerous here, right?" I asked.

Lian Daozhen said: "If the thing didn't appear before, there is no danger, but don't cross the altar, otherwise weird things may happen."

"Weird thing? What is it?" I asked.

"The first time I came here, it was led by an old man in the mountains. At that time, I was young and energetic and inexperienced. It was easy to cross the altar." Lian Dao really looked back in memory, with a little melancholy on his face. , Said: "When I got to the other side of the altar, I suddenly heard the sound of howling wind. The wind was getting stronger and stronger, and it was almost impossible to stop. But when I turned around, I saw that the things on the altar didn't move at all, so I understood. , The wind only blew under the altar. Then, I saw countless ghosts appearing in the wind, and they threw their teeth and claws."

At this time, Lian Daozhen showed a sullen look on his face and said, "My fists can easily penetrate them, so I thought they were all illusions. However, they do have the ability to hurt people. If it weren't for the old man, he would be rescued in time. , I am afraid I will die here."

"It seems illusory, but it can actually hurt people? Isn't that the same as Yin Bing?" I said in surprise.

"In this respect, it is indeed almost the same as the Yin Soldier." Lian Daozhen nodded and said: "However, it is recorded in the Taohuayuan that there were gods and witches walking on the earth in the era of the first emperor. Many people in the mountains think that , Those weird things all come from witches."

"Witch..." When I mentioned this word, the first thing that came to my mind was the Miaojiang witchcraft technique, which was said to be terrifying and impossible to guard against. But Lian Daozhen's understanding of witches is different from mine.

He said: "Witch is completely different from what you think. What you know is only a type of witchcraft, not witchcraft. A real witch can communicate with the world and has magical medicine in your hand. There are records in the ancient book Shanhaijing, ten The deeds of witch raising and lowering the heaven and earth, using magical medicine to save the dysfunction. How can the Miao witchcraft be compared with the ancient witchcraft."

"I don't know if there are witches here, I only know, this is a garbage dump!" Ah San jumped off the altar, and as we spoke, he had already rummaged through the surrounding altar, but found nothing.

The mysterious ornaments on the altar look very beautiful, and they are still radiant after thousands of years. But when I got it, I discovered that it was nothing more than some metal carvings, but I don't know why it could be kept for so long.

These altars are real gold and jade. Even Daozhen was able to find a fragment on the altar, but he had been here many times before he happened to find it. With the power of Taohuayuan, it takes so much time to find something specifically, it is really strange that Asan can find the treasure here.

"I don't know what is the use of such a stone platform, the houses are all collapsed, but they are okay." Asan muttered.

The speaker has no intention, the listener has the intention. Ah San's words made my eyes shine.

He was right. These altars were almost intact. Although they were piled up with rubble and debris, many of them were almost undamaged at the corners. In this desolate Tomb of the First Emperor, I have never seen anything that is still intact. The altar is definitely the only one.

Why is the Mausoleum of the First Emperor turned upside down, but the altar is so good

The only explanation is that the altar was protected by a mysterious force when the Mausoleum of the First Emperor was undergoing a huge movement.

Ah San and Lian Daozhen confirmed that there is no danger on the altar, so I propose to rest here, recharge and recharge, and then go to the building in the middle of the tomb.

Lian Daozhen instructed me and said, "I must remember, don't cross the altar easily. I told you before that I saw a strand of hair here, and it was also after someone accidentally crossed the altar. A strand of hair, But in the illusion, there are huge mountains pressing over. That kind of power is unstoppable, so be careful!"

Lien Daozhen is serious and serious, and I naturally keep it in my heart.

The bronze armored corpse stretched out a hand and threw me onto the altar a few meters high. There is not even a ladder here, and I doubt how the ancients climbed up.

Standing on the altar and scanning the surroundings, I really felt how lonely the Mausoleum of the First Emperor was.

It was surrounded by dark black soil, and in the depressions, large and small, there were countless ruins of mountains and rocks. Those mostly collapsed houses are not too far from the altar, and they can still be seen at this moment.

I seemed to hear the wind blowing from the house, walking around this land with sobs of sorrow.

Many of the stones on the altar have been turned over, which should have been the work of bronze armored corpses. I walked at will, and the baby corpse also flew up somehow, lying on my head and showing the way. This little guy was curious about everything, and asked me to pick up some metal products to check it out from time to time.

There are many broken sacrifices on the altar, small like bowls and saucers, some as big as buckets, and many carved into animal shapes. These things are broken all over the place, everywhere.

The altar is not stable, but a round pit with a slight inclination. This is the conclusion I came to when I walked around the altar.

Although from a distance, the altar is intact, but the surface is actually broken, but it's not too serious. If you carefully outline a bird's eye view of this altar in your mind, you may find that the so-called round pit was actually punched out by external forces.

Could it be that a stick fell from the sky and hit the altar? But the depth of this pit is a bit shallow.

I didn't think of an answer, so I squatted on the edge and asked Ah San and Lien Daozhen if the other altars were the same. Lian Daozhen replied: "In addition to this one, there are four altars as well, but the distance between them is very large, and there are several complete altars in the middle. There is no regularity, and there is no obvious way.

Even Daozhen can't be famous, so I'm still researching something.

Just as I was about to greet the bronze corpse to catch me, the baby corpse who had been lying on his head suddenly pulled at my hair. I pulled it down and saw it staring at its big sullen eyes, and its small hand kept pointing somewhere.

This little guy has a keen sense, maybe he can really find things that others can't see. I walked about 20 meters in the direction it pointed, which is already considered the center of the altar.

The baby corpse jumped from my hand, looked at the crack on the surface of the altar, and then wailed happily. I didn't know what it was happy about, so I squatted down and took a look.

This crack is not too big, about a finger width, if you don't pay attention, it is easy to ignore the past. Because of the cracks on the altar, many of them are like hair. But if I got closer and looked closely, I could vaguely see something under the crack by the light above.

Really found! Excitedly, I found a piece of metal nearby, inserted it forcefully, and tried to widen the gap. The altar has withstood an inexplicable force, and the surface is no longer hard. I pried it back and forth a few times, and it was easy to pry open a hole.

When the gap widened to the width of a palm, I could see that there was a white object underneath. I tried to knock a few times with an iron piece, and heard a crisp clang sound.

The thing was not completely exposed, but a glance at it would tell you the whole thing. Judging from its appearance, it was at least much bigger than a human palm. Therefore, this thing should have been buried in advance when the altar was built. The Mausoleum of the First Emperor is mysterious enough. What can be hidden in the altar

Seeing that the stone next to the gap was a little loose, I pried it up even harder, hoping to dig out the whole thing. I don't know how long it has been digging, the entire gap has been opened by me half a meter wide, but the thing still has no edge.

What exactly is this? (End of this chapter)
