Batulu was confused. Although Chang Sheng had made it very clear, he was still confused. "I still don't understand what you mean. This is a place where dead people are buried. Who are they going to leave open?"
"I don't know," Changsheng shook his head and said, "This is also where I am confused."
"Okay, okay, stop wondering and leave quickly," Batulu urged impatiently, "I really don't know what you are thinking. If you don't save people quickly, you are running around tinkering with the stone gate."
Before Changsheng could answer, the boss on the side took over the conversation first, "Master, please be patient. There are dangers in the tomb, and now something strange has happened. It's not advisable to rush in without knowing it clearly."
Although Batulu was confused, he could still hear the good words. He noticed that there was criticism in Datou's words, so he curled his lips in displeasure and said, "Okay, you two can work on it slowly."
Changsheng squatted down and reached out to push the top stone, making sure that the top stone was movable and rotated in the opposite direction. With this arrangement, it could be pushed from the outside but could not be pulled away from the inside.
"Your Majesty." Datou turned to look at Changsheng.
"What did you think of? Just ask." Changsheng frowned and said.
Datou pointed to the top door stone and said, "Is there anything alive inside? The people who built the mausoleum were worried that they would escape, so they blocked the stone door from the outside."
"It's possible," Changsheng said, "but the top door stone is placed in reverse, so the stone door can be easily pushed open from the outside. If a tomb robber sneaks in, wouldn't it be possible to drive in without any hindrance?"
"Could it be that when Qin Shihuang died, his queen was not dead yet, so they left a door open for the queen?" Datou guessed.
Changsheng shook his head and waved his hands, "No, because Qin Shihuang never had a queen, and all his wives and concubines were buried after his death."
Da Tou didn't know that Qin Shihuang didn't have a queen before. He suddenly realized it after listening to Chang Sheng's talk. Then he frowned, scratched his head, and continued to think hard.
Chang Sheng stood up straight and said, "There is a saying that if you don't take the road to heaven, you will have to throw yourself into hell without a door. There is no stone at the top of the tomb to block outsiders. It is very likely that there are dangerous traps inside. The purpose of building a mausoleum is People are confident."
Batulu, who was on the side, had been holding his breath. When he saw the two of them getting ready to leave, he muttered dissatisfiedly, "I've been tinkering and tinkering for a while, but I haven't seen you accomplish anything with your tinkering."
Changsheng wanted to criticize Batulu a few words, but he swallowed it back. After all, Batulu was just complaining, and he did not allow him to act rashly, and Batulu did indeed do it.
"Can I shout twice if I want?" Batulu looked at Changsheng.
Changsheng nodded in agreement.
Batulu then shouted loudly at the top of his lungs. Normally, there would be an echo when shouting in a closed area. However, due to the large area of the mausoleum, Batulu shouted one after another but there was no echo. Chen Liqiu and Li Zhongyong did not speak. respond.
The cliff behind the stone gate is not very wide, but only two feet away. Changsheng jumped over first, Batulu followed, and Datou came last.
The place where the three of them settled was a flat square paved with flat stone slabs. Not far from due north was a tall city gate. There was a solid wall around the city gate. Although more than a thousand years had passed, the city wall was still intact. The wooden gatehouse is not decayed or dilapidated.
Looking up, I saw that the dome above the tomb was only a dozen feet above the ground. Since there was no light in the tomb, even if the three of them had night vision, their vision was blurry, as if they were in black smoke and fog. .
The entire underground palace occupies a large area, at least more than ten miles in radius. After a brief observation, Changsheng said, "You go to the city wall first, and I will use the volley of fire to inspect it."
When the two nodded, Changsheng stepped on the ground to use his strength, jumped up, and immediately activated the pure Yang spiritual energy to generate scorching flames from outside his body when he reached mid-air.
Before there was no firelight, the entire underground mausoleum looked eerie and terrifying. When the hot firelight illuminated the sky, the eerie ghostly atmosphere above the ancient city was swept away, and the majestic pre-Qin architecture and magnificent ancient scenery were all in sight.
Changsheng did not hover in the air all the time, but flew high into the sky and directly arrived at the dome above. The dome was also made of huge bluestones. There were no legendary sun, moon and stars on it, only bluestone joints like spider webs.
Changsheng approached the dome not only to observe the dome, but also to determine whether Li Zhongyong and Chen Liqiu had entered the upper part of the dome. Although the two did not survive the catastrophe, Chen Liqiu had wings of wind and thunder and could fly up with Li Zhongyong.
However, after flying around from high altitude, no gap was found in the dome, so I immediately switched to flying low to search. This mausoleum was most likely built based on the layout of Xianyang back then. It has a radius of more than ten miles and is full of various Most of the buildings are civil construction.
Unlike the Imperial Palace of the Tang Dynasty, which is located in the northeast of Chang'an, the Imperial Palace of the Great Qin Dynasty is located in the center of Xianyang. The closer to the middle area, the larger the buildings are, and vice versa. The buildings far away from the palace are very small in area.
It stands to reason that after a thousand years, and the tomb was not completely sealed, the wooden buildings should have decayed and been damaged, but all the buildings in the city were well preserved, and not a single house collapsed.
Although the buildings in the city are very intact, the entire underground ancient city is dead silent, with not a single human figure. Although everyone in our party will definitely be startled if a human figure appears at this time, the ancient city without a single person also looks strange and scary.
After flying around at low altitude, Changsheng returned to the south city gate. Previously, Batulu and Datou had used the firelight from Changsheng to see the panoramic view of the underground city. They were amazed at how much manpower it took to build such a large underground building. material resources.
"Nothing unusual was found," Changsheng said. "There are footprints on the ground. Follow the footprints to find them."
Hearing Changsheng's words, Batulu and Datou jumped down from the tower and followed Changsheng to the north.
Because the ground was covered with dust, the footprints of Li Zhongyong and Chen Liqiu were very clear, but their footprints were not messy as they had gone back and forth many times. The reason why this happened was because when the two became familiar with the environment here, they You can use your body skills to move quickly, so there is no need to walk around the streets.
Not long after traveling forward, the footprints on the ground changed to head west, but there were also footprints returning from the west. This meant that Chen Liqiu and Li Zhongyong had gone west. After a quick meditation, Changsheng followed the footprints and walked west. There are all kinds of living utensils in the house, and there are even beddings. Although they are covered with dust, if you reach out and touch them, they have not become damp and rotten.
Seeing this situation, Changsheng became more and more confused. This was something from more than a thousand years ago. You must know that things like cotton and linen are the most perishable. It will not be preserved even in a hundred years, let alone a thousand years. This place How could things in the underground ancient city be so well preserved?
There was a fingerprint left on the wooden pillar in the room. It was unknown whether it belonged to Li Zhongyong or Chen Liqiu. The reason why the two of them inspected the wooden pillar must be to find out why these things have not decayed after thousands of years.
Changsheng originally thought that these pieces of wood were soaked in tung oil, but he never wanted to tear off a piece and smell it, but there was no smell of tung oil.
After a brief stay at the ancient house, the three of them followed the footsteps of the two of them and returned to the main road in the city, continuing to move north. Although Batulu was confused, he was very obedient and followed Changsheng without causing any trouble.
Since the palace is located in the center of the city, the three of them quickly arrived in front of the palace. The traces of trampling in front of the palace were very obvious, and several round gold cakes were left nearby. This shows what Li Zhongyong and Chen Liqiu brought out. They are all obtained from the palace.
Just when Changsheng bent down to pick up the gold cakes on the ground, a strange sound of the piano suddenly came from the palace...
