"Even if this place has become a ruin, you still think there will still be a lot of hidden traps here, right?"
Facing the ruins scene in front of her, Jiang Yingxue seemed to truly realize what Bai Ning meant when he said there were dangers.
Just two tomb chambers can make such a huge noise. If you say that the designer of the tomb will not set some booby traps in the ruins, basically no one will believe it now.
Facts speak louder than words, especially the cruel facts about your own life!
Bai Ning just didn't answer such a topic that he knew he was asking, and stared calmly at the ruins in front of him, as if he was looking for ideas for subsequent exploration.
Liu Cheng felt that he could not help much at this time, so he could only follow Professor Huang silently, trying to see what this great scholar wanted to do.
But faced with some broken bricks and arrows, Liu Cheng couldn't understand it at all, so he could only stand aside pretending not to understand, using body language to prove his participation.
"Everyone, look at these iron arrows. The arrow parts are also etched with evil ghost patterns."
Professor Huang asked Liu Cheng to break open a cracked stone, pull out several iron arrows inside, and thoroughly confirm the special shape on the arrows.
Bai Ning looked for fame and was a little confused about the evil ghost pattern on the arrow.
According to the general killing method, poison is applied on the arrow to increase the killing effect. Patterns can be etched on the arrow, which seems a bit weird.
Unless, such lines have a certain symbolic meaning.
Considering the evil ghost tomb they were currently in, this special arrow must have been carefully prepared for tomb robbers.
If this is the case, then in addition to the evil ghost icon, there should be other invisible disasters hidden in the iron arrow.
This kind of disaster can be popularized as a curse.
"Don't touch the iron arrows, and handle them with care. There may be viruses inside."
Bai Ning gave a low shout, which shocked the people around him who were about to come forward to watch the excitement.
"What, is there something wrong with the iron arrow?"
Liu Cheng, who was closest to him, instinctively asked. Bai Ning's cold expression made his legs tremble with fear.
For no other reason than because Bai Ning's prediction of danger was so accurate, there have been no major problems so far.
Bai Ning said there is a problem, then there must be a problem.
Regarding the possibility of a virus, Jiang Yingxue also had some vague guesses. She waved her hand and motioned for several people wearing biochemical protective suits to come closer and check.
The dispatch of biochemical personnel made the atmosphere in the field become more solemn. Some people subconsciously slowed down their breathing rhythm for fear of inhaling something fatal.
He took the iron arrow from Professor Huang's hand and inspected it, but found no hidden holes or cavities in the arrowhead or shaft.
Although it may not be proved that these iron arrows do not contain biological weapons, at least this iron arrow is safe.
"Boss Bai's speculation about the virus is very reasonable, but I have some new ideas about the evil ghost icons on these arrows.
The evil ghost patterns on these iron arrows are obviously different from the evil ghost reliefs on the previous stone strips.
The previous evil ghost reliefs had tiger teeth and leopard tails, bearing the main characteristics of the West Queen Mother clan, but the evil ghost patterns on these iron arrows had flame patterns, like an unknown fire beast.
"Mozi Guiyi" records: The emperor used Jia and Yi to kill the green dragon in the east, Bing and Ding to kill the red dragon in the south, Geng and Xin to kill the white dragon in the west, and Ren and Gui to kill the black dragon in the north.
A and B are wood, and the green dragon is a sacred beast of the wood system. Iron arrows belong to gold, and metal overcomes wood. These iron arrows are the weapons used to kill the green dragon.
As for why the evil ghost pattern on it has fire patterns, I don’t know yet.
Analyzing the overall situation, if the Qinglong Qisu Diagram in the stone forest was a symbol of the tester, now the arrow formation here wants to kill the Qinglong. Isn't this a very contradictory thing? "
Professor Huang gave a certain interpretation of the Green Dragon allusion and clarified the mutual restraint between gold and wood. However, it is obvious that this is only a one-sided interpretation because it does not involve the fire evil ghost pattern on the arrow.
"Metal defeats wood, and wood can make fire. According to this understanding, the green dragon that died here will become the nourishment of the entire tomb.
According to this understanding, is it telling us implicitly that even if the person who comes here is a qualified trespasser, he will still die.
Especially for those who are good at opportunism, their death is inevitable.
Their deaths will not only make the tomb safer, but also serve as a disguised warning to future intruders.
This overall understanding seems to be consistent with the overall hypothesis that metal overcomes wood and wood creates fire. "
Jiang Yingxue combined all the guessing directions he had previously mastered and conducted a comprehensive expansion of the current flame-patterned evil ghost.
Her idea was logically consistent and had no problems, but it did not receive corresponding affirmation from Bai Ning.
At this time, Bai Ning had already taken over the iron arrow that Professor Huang had just held, and carefully inspected the entire iron arrow again.
Except for the flame-patterned devil icon on the arrow, there is no difference between this iron arrow and the iron arrow in the upper tomb.
If what exists here is a batch of ordinary iron arrows, then the explanation that Jiang Yingxue associates with the mutual reinforcement and restraint of metal, wood and fire makes a lot of sense.
But is it possible to go to such great lengths to carry out this destruction just to shoot a hail of arrows?
According to the trap-by-trap design style of the tomb designer, it is impossible not to hide some vicious backhand in such a large-scale, one-time act of destruction.
You know, if this area is destroyed, it will be completely destroyed.
If you want this area to still have a certain degree of deterrence, then there is a high probability that it will not be a physical deterrent.
The most likely one is the invisible threat from biochemical aspects.
If the deceased can bring more specific benefits to the mausoleum, in addition to serving as a warning, the best use is to cultivate viruses.
In other words, the so-called wood making fire refers to the second outbreak process of the virus!
“There is nothing wrong with the overall conjecture that metal overcomes wood and wood creates fire.
The problem lies in the analysis of wood making fire. The role of dead bodies as a warning and threat later is completely dispensable for some desperadoes.
Therefore, this analysis direction is wrong.
The most likely possibility is biochemical, that is, the effect of corpses on the reproduction of germs.
In a low-temperature environment, it is difficult to estimate how long the germs can survive on a corpse, and how much damage they will cause when they eventually explode.
Based on this overall speculation, I think there may be some poisonous arrows among these iron arrows. "
Bai Ning brought the topic back to the category of viruses, and the direction of his explanation sounded more profound than Jiang Yingxue's analysis.
Furthermore, they had already talked about the characteristics of the plague that the evil ghost relief might represent before, and they also had a certain consensus on the fact that the tomb contained viruses, so they were completely unable to refute it.
Suddenly, the atmosphere in the entire group became even more dull.
Coupled with the destruction of the wind duct, the temperature here will gradually heat up as time goes by, and the virus frozen in low temperature will be quickly activated and spread along the transpiration of water vapor or the humid environment in the tomb.
"Most of the arrows are now embedded in the stone wall. It is completely impossible to pull them out and inspect them one by one. Do we need to give up the advancement here?"
Jiang Yingxue also seemed a little unwilling to face this potentially poisonous secret room.
Giving up midway will not only make all previous efforts in vain, but no one can guarantee that we will not encounter a virus crisis again in the subsequent process.
"The current temperature is still extremely low. We only need to hang a layer of ice on the surface of the iron arrow to temporarily prevent the leakage of the damaged virus container.
In addition, the previous air duct was not so easily destroyed.
Even if there are certain risks in continuing to dig along the direction of the wind channel, such risks are much better than allowing the place to continue to heat up. "
Bai Ning's suggestion made everyone's eyes light up. A low-temperature environment also has its benefits. The ancient viruses that have been frozen in thousands of years of ice cannot harm them as long as they are not thawed.
After receiving the order, the people outside quickly brought in a large amount of mineral water. The water dripped into ice in the tomb where the cold wind had been blowing for a long time, and all the iron arrows were soon covered with a layer of ice.
The virus crisis was temporarily lifted, and everyone quickly cleaned up all the collapsed and damaged stones and iron tools and piled them in a corner of the tomb, taking care to prevent them from being contaminated with certain viruses.
The person responsible for demolishing the wall had just drilled holes in the wall when a dull banging sound came from inside the wall.
After experiencing so many rounds of arrow rain, everyone's first reaction was that there were also a large number of crossbows placed on the other side of the wall.
At this time, the vibration of the drilling triggered the bed crossbow on the other side of the wall. If the drilling continued, there would probably be another round of thousands of arrows here.
How many people will die in the end depends entirely on God's will.
"Install a set of directional blasts."
Bai Ning didn't want to gamble, so he gave a quick order, and the others quickly moved to the upper tomb.
Not long after, with a dull continuous blasting sound, the wall that had made a dull sound fell to the ground, but there was no strong impact sound like rain of iron arrows again.
Someone was sent to look down and found that there was no bed crossbow on the other side of the wall. The source of the dull crashing sound was just a huge stone in the next tomb.
The size of the boulder is about two-thirds of the volume of the tomb chamber. There are still some metal locks on the top of the tomb chamber, proving that the boulder was once suspended.
The puzzling layout of the tomb chamber.
A huge boulder was placed in a small tomb chamber and was suspended from the ceiling by a mechanism. Previously, dozens or hundreds of bed crossbows were firing arrows wildly, but they were not allowed to fall naturally. Now it is just hanging on the ceiling. There was an electric shock on the wall for a while, and the boulder fell down.
So, what is the special meaning of this huge boulder that suddenly fell to the ground?
