Chapter 4 Exploring the Tomb

My father never thought about how Bai Hannian found this. The above task only told the approximate location, but the specific location of the tomb passage is still unknown.

I don’t know if the entrance of this cave is the entrance of the tomb. According to the pattern on the altar, it may be the ancient tomb of the Liao Dynasty we are looking for.

Bai Hannian asked his father: Liu Siming, how did you find this? How did you understand the patterns on the altar?

After hearing his words, my father said: I don’t know very well. I roughly knew the location based on the location where the ancient corpse was washed down by a mountain torrent during the day.

I think he should have flowed down from the north along the mountain torrents and mudslides, but I didn't see any traces of mudslides erosion.

I was also a blind cat and ran into a dead mouse. When I encountered this place, I was attracted by the pattern on the altar shortly after I arrived. I was watching it and suddenly felt something was moving, so I hid, but I didn't expect it was you.

When I got up and went there, I happened to see you leaving the camp with your equipment, so I followed you slowly to see what you were trying to do. At that time, I felt that you were going to find a tomb.

Since we came, we would go to find out the truth together. They came to the entrance of the cave. The entrance was dark and could not see anything. Even the flashlight could not shine. The wind was very strong there, and it felt cool when blowing in their bodies.

The hole was very deep. They walked inside for about ten minutes before they vaguely saw a large stone gate. This stone gate was more than three meters high and more than two meters wide. There were two wolf-headed totems on each of the stone gates. On both sides of the stone gate were wolf-headed human warriors.

The two wolf-headed warriors were not holding weapons, but lamps. The father used a flashlight to light the lamp, and it turned out that there was a liquid similar to oil in the lamp.

My father took out a match, lit a match, and put it into the lamp, which instantly brightened.

Bai Hannian also lit the lights opposite, and the hole became much brighter for a moment.

The two finally saw everything in the cave. The ground of the cave was paved with rocks, and various murals were carved on the walls of the cave. On both sides of the cave were wolf-headed warriors. Some of them were carrying long swords, some were holding axes, and some had bows and arrows, with different shapes.

Bai Hannian seemed to have seen a baby, picked up the camera to take pictures of everything around him, and said while taking pictures: I have never seen this strange-shaped stone statue. The professors and the others would be shocked to see these.

My father did not answer, but was looking for a way to enter the tomb. He looked carefully at the big stone gate. Except for the two wolf heads, don't

There is nothing special about it.

However, Bai Hannian didn't think so. He saw the mural of the mountain and said: On the left is a general who was training soldiers, and next to him is a military advisor who was placing troops. On the right is a soldier who was placing a formation. On the front row is a soldier holding a shield, in the middle is a spear soldier, and in the back row is an archer.

You really don't know that Bai Hannian's explanation inspired his father. His father guessed that these wolf-headed warriors in the cave could also be arranged and then arranged in an arrangement. If the stone gate mechanism is triggered correctly, it will be easy to open.

If the arrangement is wrong, it is easy to trigger a fatal mechanism, and you can't even run away if you want to.

My father decided to give it a try. He came to a wolf-headed warrior and pushed it hard with both hands. The statue really moved. He guessed it right.

But this arrangement is difficult. I don’t know that the kind of warriors are in the front row. Now there are only long sword warriors, sword and axe warriors, and bow and arrow warriors.

My father thought that the sword warrior was in the middle, with swords and axes samurai in the front row and bows and arrows samurai in the back row. But if they were wrong and triggered the mechanism, they would be unable to save their lives.

My father and Bai Hannian did not make a decision and were studying how the warrior array triggered the door opening mechanism. It was already four o'clock in the morning and it was dawn soon.

I had to rush back before dawn, but it would be bad if the professors and the others found out.

But my father didn't give up. After Bai Hannian's persuasion, he finally left the place and returned to the camp.

My father, who returned to the camp, drew back and forth on the paper, as if he was possessed, hoping to crack the warrior array diagram and trigger the mechanism to open the tomb door.

At this moment, my father seemed to understand something. He had not finished reading the pattern on the altar. One side was disturbed by Bai Hannian just as he was about to see it.

I have to go there once tonight, so he secretly told Bai Hannian that he would go there again.

It’s better to go to the evening than to go during the day. Bai Hannian’s voice was a little loud and was heard by the girl named Qin Yan.

Where are you two going? The sudden sound scared the two of them. They looked back and saw that it was the girl who found the ancient corpse that day.

Ah, we won’t go anywhere. We have to go up the mountain to cut some wood and make fire. Bai Hannian’s panicked answer.

Qin Yan heard Bai Hannian's answer and never continued to ask questions. After Qin Yan left, the two finally breathed a sigh of relief.

My father thinks that Qin Yan seems to doubt them.

If you can't move during the day, you can only go until night.

My father returned to the tent and continued to crack the wolf-headed warrior array. He drew back and forth on the paper, hoping to deduce it.

Maybe I was busy all night last night and suddenly felt sleepy, so my father lay down and fell asleep.

After a while, he had a dream, dreaming that someone was standing at the door of the tent. The man wore a bull-headed head and a round-necked robe, but his lower body was wearing trousers and leather boots, showing the characteristics of a minority.

He waved to his father, as if he wanted to take his father to a place, and his father followed him unknowingly.

The picture came to another place in a blink of an eye. My father saw that it was the place he went to last night.

My father saw a group of people in ethnic minority costumes carrying a large sarcophagus and walking into the cave, followed by a large number of soldiers, as well as the wolf-headed warrior I saw last night.

In the middle of the altar stood a high priest in a black robe and an eagle-mouth crown. He held his staff and his hands facing the sky, as if he was talking about something else in his mouth.

The kneelings on both sides were full of civilians wearing ethnic costumes, as well as a few soldiers and wolf-headed warriors.

At this moment, a huge bird of prey flew into the sky, flew straight to the priest, and instantly captured the priest. The priest struggled and his staff fell down.

The archers below picked up the bow and arrow and shot the bird of prey. The common people also picked up the stone and smashed it at the bird of prey. The bird of prey blew a few times and threw the priest off the cliff.

The picture turned into the cave again. My father saw a large number of wolf-headed warriors lined up. They seemed to hear the noise outside, thinking that foreigners were attacking and destroying the tomb.

When my father saw the formation of the wolf-headed warriors, it turned out that these wolf-headed warriors had no formation at all, they just gathered together to block the stone gate.

When my father was about to see him again, the man who led him here suddenly had dry skin, his eyes collapsed, his clothes were torn, and he seemed to have been bitten by something in his body, and his bones were leaked. His dry hand reached towards his father.

My father woke up suddenly, sweating all over and his heart was beating.

It turned out to be a dream. My father took a sip of water. He remembered the method of cracking the mechanism to open the stone gate and was about to go tonight.
