After Zhao Shucheng and others crossed the stone bridge, they saw the gate of Qianjin that they had discovered before.
Hu Bayi shone the stone door with a flashlight, looked at it and said, "Look, there are traces of explosives blowing here. There are also traces of crowbar prying here."
Shirley Yang said: "You said, will this have something to do with the owner of that note?"
"It is very likely that the degree and traces of this damage have been at least decades. And it may not have been a group of people. Look at the stone gate, which is so thick and so deep underground. If I guess correctly, Queen Jingjue's grave should be below it."
"So, that's our ultimate goal?"
Hu Bayi said hesitantly: "I'm just worried that this will go too far. Since more than one wave of people have come, but there is no record, this is too strange."
"I understand your concerns, but we'll go in and take a look anyway."
After discussing it, everyone finally decided to go in and check it out.
Only Zhao Shucheng said nothing. In fact, he discovered that there were traces of explosives that were blown up here, and he also guessed that the reason why everyone entered the illusion was because the stone gate was opened.
The corpse fragrance konjac is guarded in Queen Jingjue's tomb. The smell emitted can make people enter the illusion. Originally, the tomb chamber was sealed, but as the stone door opened, the fragrance gradually spread to the entire underground palace, and then the person entering the passage unconsciously entered the illusion.
The group passed the stone gate and entered the tomb. After walking for a while, they found that it seemed that it had come to an end and there was no road ahead. A broken bridge appeared in front, and it seemed like an abyss below.
Shirley Yang was unwilling to stop here and threw a flare down, but found that the abyss was actually a cliff with thousands of gold and silver treasures hidden inside.
Hu Bayi said in shock: "Miss Yang, have you also seen the gold, silver and treasures below?"
"I saw it, didn't you see it?"
"I just feel it's not true."
Zhao Shucheng looked at Hu Bayi and had to say that Hu Bayi's intuition was really accurate. What Zhao Shucheng saw below was not gold, silver and jewelry, but corpses. Of course, there were also some gold, silver and treasures, but they were all on these corpses, or around them, but the quantity was far from shocking Zhao Shucheng.
Through these corpses, Zhao Shucheng knew from the remaining clothes on them that this was not a group of people, or people of the same age. Some of the clothes had rotted almost, and looked like thousands of years old, which looked very similar to the clothes on the murals seen in Prince Gumo’s tomb.
Some of the clothes are very similar to the costumes of the archaeological team found in the Nine-story Demon Tower of Kunlun Glacier. They should be the corpse of Shirley Yang's father's first generation expedition team. Some are mixed inside, and they should be the corpses of tomb robbers who came here within a thousand years.
Since Fatty Wang's jade pendant has been passed down for thousands of years, how could it be that only Zhao Shucheng and others came here? The first group of people who entered here should be the Western Regions who resisted the rule of the Jingjue Kingdom after Queen Jingjue's death. They broke into this place and tried to destroy Queen Jingjue's corpse. However, after seeing the treasures plundered by Queen Jingjue, they were confused by the breath of the corpse fragrance konjac, and a war broke out here, and countless casualties ended up innumerable casualties.
A small number of people who were not deeply influenced by the illusion were thought to be cursed here, and in order to avoid the cursed people catching up, the stone bridge was destroyed.
Those who came here later were also illusions. Because of the influence of the illusion, they saw the mountains of gold and silver below, so they fought for each other again, and only those with the jade pendant escaped by chance.
The others in the archaeological team didn't think there was anything wrong. They came down one by one, looked at the gold, silver and jewelry around them, and of course they were more researching from the archaeological aspect.
Only the fat man could not withstand such temptation. Before, he saw a gold coin in the water when he was outside. If the archaeological team hadn't been by his side, he would have gone into the water to catch it.
Now that I saw so many gold, silver and treasures, I felt so itchy. I took a necklace and stuffed it into my pocket when others were not paying attention.
Professor Chen looked at Wang Kaixuan and said, "Xiao Wang, what are you doing?"
Wang Kaixuan took it out of his pocket in embarrassment and said, "Oh, what's going on? I didn't want to take it."
"Shut up, you, you take my words as wind in your ears, things here can't move!" Hu Bayi scolded Wang Kaixuan awkwardly.
"I didn't want to move, I don't know why this thing came to my hands."
"Xiao Wang, everything here is a cultural relic and cannot be kept privately. Put it back!"
Zhao Shucheng looked at Wang Kaixuan, but he only noticed that Wang Kaixuan was unconsciously holding a string of things while taking pictures, and then stuffed them into his pocket. However, this was not real gold, silver and jewelry, but a string of snake bones, which should be the bones of Jingjian Ahan who died in it.
The illusion here is really amazing, making others regard everything here as gold, silver and jewelry, including bones and stones, and they all become priceless treasures. So, Professor Chen had taken a person's head as a rare treasure before and looked at it carefully.
The group continued to walk forward, walked through a dark and dark tomb passage, and stood in front of a broken wall.
Others thought this time was the same as last time, because of the dark environment inside, so it made people feel that there was an unfathomable abyss in front of them. Shirley Yang threw it down with a fireworks stick, trying to see how deep it was, but she didn't expect that the glow stick had fallen for a long time until the light was not visible, but she had not reached the point, and there was no sound of heavy objects falling to the ground.
The others immediately retreated in fear, fearing that they would fall into this bottomless abyss by accident.
"This should be the holy land in Jingjue Culture, the bottomless ghost cave." Professor Chen said with some emotion.
"Ghost Cave Clan, their names should be because of this." Sadi Peng said mysteriously.
Hu Bayi felt a little surprised and asked, "What the hell hole, what are you talking about? What do you mean?"
Professor Chen said: "It is in the story Xiao Zhao told before that the Evil Luohai tribe migrated to their ancestral land, Ghost Cave, and changed its name to Ghost Cave tribe. This is the Ghost Cave. Do you hear it? Does the sound look like the sound of ghosts crying? This is a cave like a bottomless abyss."
"Where is this ghost cave connected? How deep is it?"
"No one knows this. I have been studying it for most of my life and thought that these legends of spirit are just legends, but I didn't expect to see such a huge cave today." Professor Chen said excitedly.
When Zhao Shucheng heard the conversation between the people, he understood that although Sardini had already left the tomb passage and returned to the ground, in the eyes of everyone, he was actually following them, and even the rest of the archaeological team followed for some reason.
Professor Chen said excitedly that this should be the entity connecting the imaginary space. If it falls from here, it should not fall to death. Instead, it disappears and enters another space. Of course, it cannot come back.
Wang Kaixuan saw the group of people standing by the mountain wall chatting, lying down and looking at the ghost cave, and immediately sat on the ground with weak legs and said, "It's really a waste of life. You stood there and talked for a long time, are you not afraid at all?"
Hu Bayi saw others looking at Wang Kaixuan and said, "The fat man has a fear of heights, and he has been like this since he was a child."
But Shirley Yang seemed to have made a new discovery. She raised her head and took a flashlight and said, "Old Hu, pull me."
"What are you doing?"
"I think there seems to be something on it, I'll take a look."
When Hu Bayi took Shirley Yang's hand and poked his body out of the mountain wall and looked upwards, Zhao Shucheng frowned and looked above the mountain wall.
Shirley Yang stared at the top with all concentration without blinking, and said, "There is something on it."
The fat man said indifferently: "No matter what he has, let's go up and take a look? There is a mountain path here, so you can go up."
When the others heard this, they looked at Wang Kaixuan in surprise and asked, "Where is the way?"
"Just here, you all look at the top and bottom. Don't you know how to take a look next to it?" Wang Kaixuan said proudly at the stairs he found.
Everyone else was shocked that there was actually a winding mountain road here. Only Zhao Shucheng knew that if it weren't for the fat man's words, others would never see it, and they even had to think of other ways to get up.
The group carefully approached the mountain wall, stepped on the narrow path, and walked towards the top step by step. The sound of ghosts cried constantly came from their ears, which made people feel a little scared.
Wang Kaixuan was afraid of heights and wanted to walk on such a mountain wall. He could only squat down and carefully support the mountain wall.
After the group stopped, Wang Kaixuan saw the direction where everyone was looking at and asked: "Why is there a big piece of wood on it?"
"This should be the Kunlun Divine Tree."
"What, Kunlun Divine Wood, why haven't I heard of it?" Wang Kaixuan continued.
Hu Bayi said: "My grandfather once said that the best material for coffin is the tree smoldering wood. In fact, there is also a kind of top-quality divine wood, Kunlun divine wood. Even if it is only one section, it will not dry up after leaving the soil and sunshine. Although it no longer grows, it always maintains its original appearance. If the corpse is stored in Kunlun divine wood, it can be immortal for thousands of years. The ancient books say that this tree is as old as the Kunlun Mountains. When Qin Shihuang wanted to find Kunlun divine tree to be a coffin."
Zhao Shucheng nodded and said, "Old Hu is right. The Kunlun divine tree. The earliest record is the Kunlun Immortal Tree in the Mountains and Seas. The book loads the book that if you take the elixir refined by the Immortal Tree, you can make people immortal. The Queen Mother of the West is in Kunlun Mountain, so the Immortal Tree is in the hands of the Queen Mother of the West. Many ancient gods, Fuxi, Houyi, etc., have gone to Kunlun Mountain to seek immortal medicine."
"It's a pity that the immortal medicine is only a legendary existence. On the contrary, the immortal tree is relatively easier to find, so many emperors hope to use the wood of the immortal tree to build coffins, but unfortunately there are very few people who can find it."
Zhao Shucheng said as he looked at the coffin on it and said, "The reason why Queen Jingjue has such a coffin is thanks to the Evil Luohai clan being the overlord of Kunlun Mountain, so he was able to find the Kunlun divine wood. Unfortunately, since then, this is the only part that can be discovered in Kunlun divine wood."
After hearing this, Wang Kaixuan looked at Kunlun divine wood not far away and said, "That is to say, this is the most valuable treasure here?"
"It's good, but we can't take it out, so just think about it."
However, Shirley Yang looked at the coffin not far away, and didn't know what he thought of, and was stunned for a moment, and then walked towards the front alone.
Seeing Shirley Yang like this, Hu Bayi followed her with some concern and made others slower.
Zhao Shucheng saw everyone walking towards the front, but the path under his feet also existed, so he did not stop everyone. However, just in case, he asked others to connect them together with a hiking rope, so he continued to move forward.
As I walked, I suddenly heard someone screaming, but I saw Professor Chen stepping out of the mountain wall half a step and falling down the next moment.
"You guys should watch it."
Professor Chen said embarrassedly: "I just looked at the top and didn't pay attention to my feet. If Xiao Zhao hadn't asked us to contact each other with a mountain rope, I'm afraid it would have really fallen."
"What do you think is above?"
Wang Kaixuan then glanced at it and said, "This is like a big taro. You said you were burying Queen Jingjue as a seed here, right?"
After hearing this, Lao Hu looked at the fat man speechlessly. No serious person would have such thoughts. Only the fat man could say such words unexpectedly.
Professor Chen said: "Corpsy and Konjac! I didn't expect that there was such a legend here, and there was really such a thing in the world."
Zhao Shucheng looked at Professor Chen and said, "Professor Chen, this corpse-scented konjac should smell, right? Why don't we smell anything?"
Zhao Shucheng's move was not really about asking Professor Chen to say anything, but just wanted to see if these people still had normal thinking and could speak out the knowledge they had in their memory after being hit by the illusion.
Professor Chen didn't think too much and said, "Of course, the corpse fragrance konjac is said to be very dangerous when it blooms. Growing in an ancient tomb can not only protect the corpse from rotting, but also make the corpse emit fragrance, which is extremely precious."
Wang Kaixuan said: ‘Old Hu, you said we are all here and we must go up and take a look.’
Zhao Shucheng said: "Yes, I've come here, I can't just go back like this, and people don't want us to leave like this."
Hu Bayi asked in surprise: "What did you say?"
Zhao Shucheng smiled and said, "It's nothing, let's go!"
As he said that, Zhao Shucheng walked forward first, but when he was on the road, he often took the engineer shovel and tapped the mountain wall, as if he was looking for something.
"Master Zhao, don't you think that Kunlun divine wood and corpse fragrance konjac are both tricks. Queen Jingjue's coffin is hidden elsewhere, right?" Wang Kaixuan noticed Zhao Shucheng's actions and asked curiously.
Zhao Shucheng shook his head and said, "Of course not, I am looking for another channel."
