Chen Lili: "Then how did he die? Starved to death?"
Fat Man: "Definitely not! If he died of starvation, it would be impossible to leave a candle, and the flame on the candle would not burn like this For a long time, I am more inclined to be poisoned."
Chen Ze: "I quite agree with Fatty's statement. Don't you think the atmosphere in this tomb is weird?"
Everyone muttered, "It seems true. The owner of the tomb died in this secret room, and was bitten by a poisonous snake. But we didn't encounter any poisonous snakes after we entered!"
Zhang Qiling picked up the He took a closer look at the jade pendant that Chen Ze had just pulled off and said, "There is something wrong with this jade pendant."
"What's wrong?" Chen Ze asked.
“I once read a travelogue, which mentioned a legend that when the Yellow Emperor conquered Chi You, Chi You used a poison called Gu. It is said that as long as you eat Gu, your whole body will be poisoned. It will fester and die," Zhang Qiling said.
“Did anyone believe it at that time?” Chen Ze asked.
"Some people believe it, but I think it is fake." Zhang Qiling shook his head, obviously not believing it.
Chen Ze: "This kind of thing, I would rather kill the wrong person than let it go. Look at the environment here. If it is true, then he should have been bewitched, which is why the body rotted!"
Zhang Qiling frowned and thought about what Chen Ze said. He also suspected that the jade pendant was bewitched.
Fat Man: "Then should this thing be destroyed?"
Zhang Qiling shook his head, "If not, since it is a Gu mentioned in ancient books, it is worth money."
Chen Lili: "Brother Zhang, don't you also like this kind of thing?"
Chen Lili saw that Zhang Qiling was interested in this jade pendant and couldn't help but complain.
Zhang Qiling: "Haha, you are thinking too much."
Chen Lili curled her lips in disdain.
Zhang Qiling continued to look through the books.
The fat man looked at this ancient coffin and couldn't help but rub his hands: "Hey, we are going to get rich tonight!"
Chen Ze: "Get out!"

Several hours passed and no one found anything.
"You guys go to rest first, and when I wake up we will continue to look for clues." Zhang Qiling suggested.
A few people nodded in agreement, ate something casually, and then went back to their houses to sleep.
Zhang Qiling was lying on the bed, but he tossed and turned and couldn't sleep.
He was thinking, if his guess was correct and there was indeed a poison made by ancient witch doctors in the tomb, then this poison should be a chronic toxin that needs to accumulate slowly before it explodes.
Judging from what Chen Ze just said, there should be no poisonous insects found in the tomb. In other words, those poisonous insects should be trapped somewhere and dare not show their heads easily.
As long as you can find their location, you can find a solution. Moreover, the cave is very deep. You can completely avoid the poisonous insects, but you don't know if you can reach the bottom smoothly.
Zhang Qiling planned to familiarize himself with the structure of the tomb before thinking of a solution, because Zhang Qiling knew that this place was very dangerous and he would be attacked if he was not careful.
Zhang Qiling took out a compass from his backpack, then walked to the sarcophagus and started observing.
Zhang Qiling took out a candle and lit the floor near the sarcophagus.
The color of the slate is gray-black, while the floor of the sarcophagus has a light pink color, which at first glance looks like blood-soaked soil, and this color gives people a very uncomfortable feeling. .
Zhang Qiling used the candle to tentatively blow a breath into the sarcophagus. Then Zhang Qiling was surprised to find that the breath was attracted by a suction force about ten centimeters away from the sarcophagus.
“Hi~!” The fat man gasped.
“There is something in here, is it so evil!” Chen Lili was also shocked.
The fat man swallowed, "I heard my dad said that there are rice dumplings in the ancient tombs!"
Chen Ze: "Don't talk nonsense, there are no ghosts in this world."
Chen Lili: "We are in a haunted house now, and we are witnessing the horror of this world." Zhang Qiling looked at the firelight on the candle. It is still very stable, which means that the candle's flame can still burn for hundreds of years.
Zhang Qiling: "I feel the candle can last another ten years, and we can continue to look for clues."
Chen Ze: "Let's put out the candle first. !”
Zhang Qiling: "Yeah!"
Everyone worked together to extinguish the flame of the candle, and then started to look at other things.
Chen Ze walked to the corner and touched the pattern on the wall, "Look here!"
Everyone gathered around. There was a painting here, which was a portrait of a woman.
The woman in the painting is lifelike, as if alive, which makes people feel a little bit creepy, but the woman in the painting is wearing ancient clothes.
Chen Ze pointed to the dress on the woman in the painting and said, "What kind of dress do you think she is wearing?"
Chen Lili: "Clothes from the Han Dynasty."
Fat Man: " I feel something is wrong.”
Chen Ze: “What’s wrong? I think it’s beautiful.”
Fat Man: “What do you know? It was a style from the Republic of China, and it was worn at that time. The clothes are all in tatters, how can they be as luxurious as this painting?"
Zhang Qiling: "This is the costume of the Song Dynasty. The culture here is more complicated. Pay attention, there are written records here, which describe the story of Nuwa patching up the sky!"
Zhang Qiling dipped her fingers into the oil on the candle. , and then apply it on the ground.
Everyone took a closer look and found a passage written on the ground, which roughly means: The woman suffered in the world for thousands of years, and finally became a Virgin. On the night of three days, she came to the world and turned the earth into a fairyland. Then the woman left. He passed away, leaving behind a tomb.
Zhang Qiling: "The family name of the owner of this tomb is Song Dynasty."
"Then who is the owner of this tomb?" Chen Lili suddenly thought.
Zhang Qiling: "I don't know about this. The world is too big. There are people with different names in every city. Maybe this is a famous person in history!"
Chen Ze: "Okay. , stop discussing, pack up and prepare to retreat, this place is getting more and more dangerous."
"Retreat?" Everyone didn't understand what Chen Ze meant.
Zhang Qiling: "I have a hunch that we may be in trouble this time."
After hearing this, everyone stood up and prepared to leave.
"Boss, won't you take this sarcophagus with you?" Chen Lili asked.
Zhang Qiling smiled, "No need, this sarcophagus is already a dead object, there is no need for us to waste time on it."
Chen Ze nodded, "That's okay. , go out first and then talk.”
Zhang Qiling: “Let’s go!”
Chen Ze and others left the tomb.
It was already dawn outside, and everyone gathered in the open space outside the cave, and then began to look for a way out.
Pangzi and Yao Xin were responsible for digging the vents, while Chen Ze was responsible for inspecting the surrounding traces.
After checking several potholes, Chen Ze found that there were traces of digging on the walls, and his expression changed slightly.
Zhang Qiling, Fatty, Chen Lili and Fatty’s two teammates were inspecting a tomb, and Chen Ze also joined the team.
This is a tomb similar to a cellar.
The tomb is divided into four areas: the front hall, the bedroom, the library and the warehouse for storing food. (End of this chapter)
