Chapter 271 General's Tomb
After resting for a while, Fang Xiaocao felt that his physical strength had recovered a lot. He stood up and stretched his hands and feet. After making sure that he could continue on his way, he said: "I have a good rest. "Okay, let's continue on our way."
Hearing Fang Xiaocao's words, Tom and the other three stood up immediately. The three of them had already rested, and they didn't even need to rest at all. They were all waiting for Fang Xiaocao.
"Tom, lead the way."
Fang Xiaocao ordered Tom.
Tom nodded and started to lead the way.
Hummingbird and Taotie followed Fang Xiaocao, acting as guards.
Tom led Fang Xiaocao and the other three people through the winding cave for nearly three kilometers. Although the road was rugged along the way, luckily they did not encounter any danger.
"According to the map, we have officially entered the area where the treasure is sitting. I guess the so-called treasure area should be the tomb chamber of the previous cemetery."
Tom put away the terminal and sighed. said the voice.
"This treasure map was probably drawn on the basis of that ancient tomb. The real treasure is either the burial objects in the ancient tomb, or someone used the main chamber of the ancient tomb as a treasure cave."
Tom said in a deep voice.
"Listening to what you said, I now suspect that this treasure map was drawn by some tomb robber."
Taotie raised his eyebrows and said with a smile.
Fang Xiaocao rolled his eyes at Taotie. He had nothing to do, and Taotie's mind was moving very fast.
However, Fang Xiaocao had to admit it.
This time, Taotie was right.
After listening to Tom's analysis, Fang Xiaocao also felt this way. This treasure map was left by some tomb robber.
The tomb robber who drew the treasure map robbed the ancient tomb here. He encountered an accident and was unable to take the treasure out. He had to escape by himself. This treasure map was left behind later. .
It may also be a tomb robber. After robbing the tomb, he encountered some trouble outside. He felt that this ancient tomb was safe and secret enough, so he transferred all the antiques and treasures he had collected there.
He was afraid that he would not be able to get out of trouble and come back to get these treasures of his own, so he left the treasure map.
But no matter what it is, Fang Xiaocao feels that the treasures here may have no chance of being with her.
There is a high probability that the treasure fell into the hands of the mysterious pawn shop. After all, as Tom said, just by looking at the corpses, you can tell that the pawn shop has been here for a long time. Since they have transformed the burial The pit was regarded as a place where they dumped the corpse. There is no reason why they knew there was an ancient tomb here and didn't try their luck by looking for it.
Entering a treasure mountain and returning empty-handed is not the character of people in the underground world.
"Tom, let's go to the tomb!"
Fang Xiaocao ordered Tom.
"Whether there is treasure or not, since we are here, there is no reason not to go in and take a look."
Fang Xiaocao said with a smile.
Tom nodded: "Yes!"
"What Her Royal Highness the Princess said makes sense. I would be unwilling not to go in and take a look."
"Follow me!"
Tom said, taking the lead in walking towards the correct passage marked on the treasure map.
Fang Xiaocao and the other three hurriedly followed.
We are about to reach our destination, and I am very excited.
I’m also very nervous!
Everyone is guessing whether the treasure is still there.
Fang Xiaocao is imagining that if the treasure is still there, he will make a fortune.
After walking a kilometer along the cave, the scenery in front of me changed. The passage originally formed by the natural cave showed signs of man-made excavation and rest.
On the rock walls on both sides, many blurry murals that have been eroded by time have begun to appear.
Although the mural is blurry, it can be vaguely discerned. What it wants to show is the life story of the owner of the tomb. Looking at the characters carved on it, Fang Xiaocao guessed that the owner of the tomb should be an ancient general. .
He was very brave and good at fighting during his lifetime. Almost every mural shows the scene of the tomb owner galloping on the battlefield during his lifetime. The tomb owner in the murals must be the first in every battle. There were many battles with ten thousand armies, beheading the enemy and offering sacrifices to him. A picture for those in power.
When Fang Xiaocao walked along the corridor and reached the end, the mural also ended.
The last two murals tell the story of the tomb owner dying in battle and returning his body wrapped in horse leather, as well as the scene of the person in power mourning and awarding the tomb in person. "Which dynasty is this general from?"
"He will fight for the country all his life until his death."
Fang Xiaocao murmured to himself.
Tom blinked and looked at Taotie.
“Taotie, do you know who this is?”
Hearing this, Taotie chuckled.
“Old Tom, if you ask me, you are asking the right person. I know nine out of ten and know nothing about history.”
As he spoke, Taotie laughed.
Tom was stunned and didn't realize what Taotie meant.
“He said he didn’t understand!”
The hummingbird on the side couldn’t stand it anymore and opened his mouth to explain to Tom.
Tom stared at Taotie speechlessly.
I have the urge to give Taotie a two-punch from "Bang Bang".
"Your Highness, do you know who the owner of this tomb is?"
Tom looked at Fang Xiaocao and asked curiously.
Fang Xiaocao shook his head: "I don't know either, but looking at the murals and carved costumes, they should be generals from a certain period of the Tang and Song Dynasties."
"Others, I I can’t tell.”
Hearing Fang Xiaocao's words, Tom was a little disappointed.
Tom is still very curious about the history of China.
Fang Xiaocao raised his head and looked at the two stone doors in front of him.
My guess is that this should be the tomb door.
"Taotie, Tom, you two try and see if you can push open the tomb door."
Fang Xiaocao ordered Taotie and Tom.
Fang Xiaocao could tell that these two heavy tomb doors had not been opened for a long time.
Maybe the treasure inside is still there.
“Yes!”
Hearing Fang Xiaocao’s instructions, Taotie and Tom responded at the same time, walked to the tomb door together, pressed their hands on the dusty stone door, and started Use force.
As the two of them continued to exert force, the stone door made a "clicking" friction sound and moved slightly, but it was not pushed open even a crack.
"Your Highness, no, I can't push it!"
Tom exhaled and sighed.
"You two push a door and try it!"
"Hummingbird, go and help too!"
Fang Xiaocao took a look and saw the scratches left by the movement of the stone door on the ground.
Looking at the heaviness of the stone door, I am afraid that just one door would weigh over a thousand kilograms. It is obviously unrealistic to push both doors together. It is better to push only one door.
"Okay!"
The three Toms responded, and they all gathered in front of a stone door, shouting the slogan "One, two, three" and began to work together.
As the three people continued to exert force, the thick stone door made a dull and loud "rumbling" sound and began to move inside bit by bit.
Seeing this scene, Fang Xiaocao felt happy.
There is a door!
Just push it!
Even if they can't push it open once, they can always open a gap for them to pass through if they push it a few more times.
