Chapter 505 The Mysterious Bone Tomb
An hour before Alice fell into coma, in the gold mining village.
"Overseer."
"Liu, what's the matter?"
Niru Wei said: "The bone wall has been dug through, and the people below said they have found something. .”
"Oh!" Shank threw the female slave in his arms to the ground: "Take me to see it quickly. By the way, call Saxon and Brocken."
"I have sent two lieutenants. Go and notify.”
Half an hour later, Warlord Shank and Nilu Wei arrived at the gold mining area together: “Where was it dug?”
"Under Mine No. 11." The soldier said.
“Go on.”
Entering Mine No. 11, Ke asked as he walked: "What did you find after digging through the bone wall?"
"A skeleton was found."
"Is this considered a discovery?" Bro Ken kicked it casually and scattered it on the ground. The broken bones said: "Isn't this place full of bones?"
The soldier said: "No, I mean the bone wall is a tomb, as if it was specially designed to bury the bones in the middle."
>
Several people were surprised.
The soldier said: "I took a look when we dug into the hole. The bone wall was not one side, but a semicircular enclosed space. The surroundings, the top of the head, and the ground were all covered with countless broken bones. There is a complete corpse lying on a bone platform in the middle, so I think it is like a tomb. "A tomb made of countless human bones. Why is this?" Warlord Shan Kebu. The way of solution.
Saxon said: "There may be some reason for this."
"What reason can there be?" Brocken said with a rough voice: "I think it may be something done by some barbaric tribe in ancient times. Witchcraft ritual. Don’t there still be primitive tribes like this in some places? Maybe it’s the death of the king of some tribe? Well, we made such a tomb, or there is a rule in the tribe that when someone dies, they are piled together."
Saxon thought for a while and nodded: "It is not impossible that there are many bones. It has become a fossil, and none of us could have prepared what it would be like thousands of years ago.”
Shank said: "Don't make blind guesses. If you wait and take a closer look in the tomb, you will know what's going on. Soldier, go on, what else did you find?"
The soldier shook his head and said: "No. , I just watched inside for a while, and then came out immediately to report to the captain. And... "
"And what?"
The soldier said: "I always feel weird when I stay in that tomb, and I have a creepy and chilly feeling on my spine."
Brocken laughed and said: "You are scared, right?"
The soldier laughed dryly: "Yeah...maybe hehe."
At this time, Nilu Wei, who had been silent since he came in, suddenly said: "Don't you think something is wrong?"
" Something's wrong?"
"What's wrong?" Saxon asked.
Nilu Weidao: "First of all, I think this is not just as simple as an ancient tribal tomb. Don't forget that there are strange stones deliberately arranged around this bone wall tomb, and now we still have it every day. The constant deaths must be related to this tomb.”
Everyone was silent after hearing this.
Nilu Wei said again: "Also, why is this tomb buried in this place? It must be deliberate to use so many dead people's bones and bury them in such a deep place. But if he really If he doesn't want to be discovered by others, he should be buried in an ordinary deep mountain forest, but he is now buried in a two-story gold mine. If he does this, he will be discovered sooner or later. On the other hand, if he deliberately chooses to be buried here, why does he want to be dug out by others? "
As soon as these words were said, everyone's hearts moved, and they involuntarily stopped and looked at Nilu Wei.
Saxon said: "If this is the case, if the owner of the tomb wants to be discovered, why would he do so many weird and terrifying things, use so many bones, and let people continue to die here every day. Now it seems that these are all to prevent tomb robberies. If he really wanted to be discovered, he shouldn't have done so many things, otherwise he would not be afraid of being discovered. Are others scared away and never dare to come here again?”
“Were we scared away?” Nilu Wei left Saxon speechless: “Not only were we not scared away, Scared away, it only aroused our curiosity to find out. "You said, he deliberately led us to dig up his grave?"
“I’m not saying that, it’s the current situation that makes people think so.” Nilu Weidao.
Warlord Shank thought for a moment and said, "What you said makes sense."
The soldiers next to him trembled with fear when they heard what their superiors had said: "Well, then, then, then, then, we Can you get in yet?" It's no wonder that he is trembling with fear. This tomb must be related to the dead, and now it's like the owner of the tomb is guiding them step by step into a trap.
"Useless things!" Warlord Shank slapped him: "Are the soldiers I lead useless like you? With me here, do you still need to be afraid? No matter what is inside Whatever happens to this kind of thing, I will solve it. What should be afraid of is this broken bone who is still pretending to be a ghost after being dead for so long.”
——Crack! A bone on the ground was crushed by his step.
The mine is very deep and the roads are very complicated. If you don’t work here for a long time, you can easily get lost here.
When they came to the dug-out bone wall, the soldiers stood guard at the entrance of the cave with torches or spar lamps. Nilu Wei looked into the dark bone cave and felt a cold wind blowing in front of him. But in fact, the flames on the torches held by the soldiers were very stable and were not blown by the wind. .
Shank glanced at the soldiers, kicked the soldiers in front of him away, grabbed a torch and led the way inside.
Saxon waved his hand and asked a few soldiers to follow him and walk into the bone cave together.
Under the firelight, I saw that the hole dug out of the bone wall was more than a hundred meters thick. Brocken couldn't help but said: "How many people are needed to build such a bone wall?"
"At least hundreds of thousands of people are needed." Nilu Wei said.
"More than a hundred thousand! Shit, even since our mining area started, so many people have not died."
The bone holes were not dug horizontally, but diagonally downward. of. When he reached the edge of the inner wall of the bone cave, Saxon raised the light magic crystal in his hand to its brightest and looked inside the cave, finding that he was above the tomb.
This tomb is very large, and the crystal light cannot illuminate all the conditions inside the tomb, let alone how deep it is below. Warlord Shank threw down the torch in his hand, and saw that the torch was getting smaller and smaller. It took several seconds before he heard the sound of the stick falling to the ground.
"It seems to be one or two hundred meters deep." Saxon said.
"No matter how deep it is, you can still fall to death." Brocken said and jumped down first.
Shanke, Saxon, Nilu Wei and several accompanying soldiers also jumped down one after another.
The ground under the tomb is flat, but it is also covered with human bones. Just as the soldier said, the tomb space is semicircular, like half a sphere.
A few people took spar torches and looked around. The tomb was large but empty, with nothing but white bones.
"Hey, Sa...Saxon." Brocken walked around in a circle and came to Saxon's side and whispered: "Do you feel anything? It seems very uncomfortable."
Saxon laughed. : "Will Lord Brocken be scared too?"
"Who...who said I'm scared! Humph, will I be scared?" Brocken said bravely.
"Seriously." Saxon touched his neck uncomfortably: "It does feel very uncomfortable here. I don't know what's going on. It's very depressing."
"You I feel it too.”
"Overseer." Nilu Wei held up the spar and came to the bone platform mentioned by the soldier.
This bone platform is two meters high, about seven meters long and five meters wide, and is shaped like a trapezoidal tower. The bone platform is very flat, covered with a dark red blanket. The blanket has long since decayed due to time, but it has not completely decayed yet.
Warlord Shank came over and jumped onto the bone platform. Sure enough, there was a complete skeleton lying on it.
"Who is this person and why is he buried here?" Brocken and Saxon also jumped onto the bone platform. The bone platform was very strong and it did not collapse even if three people were on it.
Among the three of them, the magician Saxon was the tallest. At 2.15 meters tall, he was still quite a bit shorter than the skeleton on the blanket.
"Whoever he is, Saxon, he is the one who caused our soldiers and miners to die constantly. Damn it, if I smash him, maybe this 'curse' of death will disappear." Brocken picked up his hand. The giant stick inside is about to be smashed.
