"Dang!"
Ye Qiong's figure landed lightly on a corner of the four stone walls with a slight rubbing sound on the ground.
There were wood pieces with writing on them, novel knives, and a lot of gold. Ye Qiong was now curious about what was inside this four-sided stone wall.
But what makes Ye Qiong a little disappointed is that it is empty...
Under the firelight, you can see the layer of stone slabs underneath.
"empty……"
Ye Qiong muttered in confusion. He really didn't expect that there was nothing in it.
He looked up at the one next to him, put some force under his feet, then stood up and jumped over, and waved the torch lightly after landing.
It’s also empty…
Looking at the empty ground below, Ye Qiong curled his lips slightly, then jumped down from the wall with a soft voice.
Reluctantly, I walked around the four walls and didn't find any secret doors or anything like that.
Judging from what Ye Qiong has seen so far, this tower is most likely the tribe's, used to store things, and the buildings on the periphery are used to imprison people.
In other words, this does not seem to be a residential area for this tribe. There are no tribesmen here. It is more like being used to punish some prisoners and store the tribe's supplies and weapons and equipment.
If this is not the habitat of this tribe, then problems will arise.
Where is this tribe's true habitat?
The first thing Ye Qiong thought of was that fork in the road!
This time Ye Qiong led the soldiers into the fork on the far right.
There are also two unknown forks that are completely unexplored.
In addition to these three forks, there are countless holes on the side of the cliff.
However, in those caves, there were no stone steps extending downward from the edge of the cliff. They should have been dug out by the fierce linweasels.
The only cave with stone steps was a cave that had been in contact with humans, and it was also where the King Lielin Weasel entered.
The space of this internal hole has now far exceeded Ye Qiong's expectations. The scale of the area that has been explored is already very large.
If it is built properly, it will not be crowded if 10,000 people can live in it.
Ye Qiong walked around the four stone walls again, a little confused as to what they were used for.
If it is used to store things, there should be a small door. Even if there is a small opening, the four walls should be sealed.
granary?
Even if it is used to store food, it is necessary to leave a few holes around it to facilitate drainage.
If you store drinking water, you must also leave a drainage port.
Ye Qiong didn't notice anything unusual in the four-walled space on the left, nor did he figure out what it was used for storage.
So I focused on the ones on the right side of the wooden frame wall.
Holding the torch, passing by the wooden frame wall area and walking to the right, Ye Tianling and the soldiers' attention began to gradually shift to another place.
Behind the four walls are the stairs leading to the second floor.
It is worth mentioning that there is not only one staircase leading to the second floor. There are also stairs leading to the second floor behind the four walls on the right side.
After arriving in front of the four walls, Ye Qiong jumped again to the point where the two stone walls connected.
When I looked down, it was still empty...
Ye Tianling had already led the soldiers to the stairs leading to the second floor.
The soldiers also became alert again, and first threw up a light arrow casually.
The light of the lantern arrows immediately illuminated the surrounding area, and the scene on the second floor also appeared in front of Ye Tianling and the soldiers.
The entire second floor is much smaller than the first floor.
The height of five meters on the first floor directly reduces the area of the second floor by a lot. The entire arrow tower is angular. The higher you go up, the smaller the area. This reduction is also geometric.
Ye Tianling and the soldiers maintained a high degree of vigilance and entered the second floor...
Ye Qiong is still on the first floor. If he were on earth, Ye Qiong would never let Ye Tianling lead the soldiers to the second floor rashly.
There is no other way, you have to be careful about dangers and mechanisms.
On earth, places like this must have been used by people in life for people after death. Some of them were created for themselves, and some were created for others.
All in all...
They definitely don't want anyone to disturb them. On the one hand, it contains the wealth accumulated by these people throughout their lives, and on the other hand, there are various customs of wind burial.
When a living person dies, it is a matter for another world. Regardless of whether the soul exists or not, they do not want anyone to dig out their bones.
Therefore, in those places on the earth, various traps, poisonous insect miasma, etc. will be set up, just to kill those who dare to spy on the wealth inside!
The greater the wind and waves, the higher the income of fishermen from fishing, and the greater the risk of the tomb, in fact, for some people, it also means that there are things in it that are directly proportional to the risk!
For the owner of the tomb, fear is all that matters...
Some people are not just for money...
This is difficult to deal with. When the meaning of something is greater than life for some people, then the traps in the tomb are not so scary.
But sometimes, there is a very special situation, that is...
The traps inside the tomb are not meant to prevent outsiders from entering.
But to prevent the...
Those things that are no longer human, come out!
This point has actually appeared in many civilizations. Some magical beliefs seem to be able to resurrect the dead and make the undead appear in the world!
Therefore, this kind of civilization, in order to prevent those who they think may cause the apocalypse or the undead to come to the world, will build large-scale construction projects. No wealth will be placed in them, but the power of the traps is very terrifying.
But sometimes, the funerary objects in such places are the kind that cannot be measured by wealth.
It is often this kind of thing that can make people risk life and death, and even generations of people flock to it.
This situation is not very common on Snow Star.
The long winter leaves humans with little time to enjoy themselves during their lifetime, so whether it is for ordinary people or high-level people in some large tribes, death is a kind of relief.
It is remarkable that the tribe can persist through the long eighteen months of winter every year.
If there is any dignitary from a large tribe who wants to use the tribe's resources to build a mausoleum for himself, then there is no need for the tribesmen to rebel themselves, and there is no need for beasts and mad people to patronize them. After the winter food is exhausted, the tribesmen will directly become A madman can simply dig out a corpse buried in the ground and tear it apart.
Different environments have created different civilizations.
Therefore, Ye Qiong will not interfere with Ye Tianling and the soldiers exploring unknown areas.
The biggest threats faced by the warriors are Warcraft and some unknown creatures, such as eyeless monsters and Haina.
It’s not humanity itself…
As for the undead and so on...
As long as Ye Qiong now feels that this thing is still complete, there is no need to worry about things that don't exist. If it does exist, that would be so interesting!
In this regard, Ye Qiong is actually a child...
Even since childhood, from that time on earth, I have nothing to fear from the legendary undead and the like, but rather have some expectations!
In addition to these, the strength of the soldiers themselves is not weak anymore, if it is really the kind of cold weapon trap on earth.
For example, arrows, quicksand or traps, really don't pose much of a threat.
Compared with the giant beasts that are five or six meters tall, they are nothing.
If any high-level monster on the Snow Star was dragged into some tombs on the earth, it would definitely be a terrifying existence at the level of a tomb-suppressing beast!
If we get some monsters above the guard level, it will be difficult to deal with hot weapons.
There was no sound coming from the second floor. Ye Qiong knew that there was probably no big discovery on the second floor. Otherwise, the voices of Ye Tianling and the soldiers would have been heard.
"Bang..."
Ye Qiong jumped up and jumped down from the four stone walls.
The sound made by the torch in his hand was louder than the sound of Ye Qiong falling to the ground.
I looked around the area on the first floor and found that it was not empty. There were some animal skins and other things hanging on the walls, which were not regular. Compared with the wooden racks in the middle and the hanging weapons, they looked a little messy...
About half an hour later, Ye Qiong walked around the entire circular area on the first floor before returning to the four walls.
He looked up at the stairs leading to the second floor, then walked out holding the torch.
The torch in Ye Qiong's hand now burns less brightly.
"Ta...ta..."
The footsteps stepped on the wooden steps, making soft sounds.
This tower has existed for who knows how many years. It is a building made of a mixture of stone and wood.
As Ye Qiong stepped onto the stairs, he was quickly attracted by the stairs made of wooden materials.
However, Ye Qiong did not stop, but continued walking up until he reached the second floor and glanced around the surrounding environment.
Wooden frame...
The wooden frames stacked in the shape of wood chips appeared neatly in rows in Ye Qiong's sight.
Ye Tianling and the few soldiers who came up were not seen on the second floor.
Ye Qiong raised his head and looked farther away, and saw a bright staircase in the area opposite to him.
It looks like...
He must have run upstairs.
This is the second floor. I don’t know how many floors this tower has.
The height of the entire second floor is also about five meters. Looking up, it still gives people a very empty feeling.
The first floor plus the second floor together now have a height of ten meters, occupying almost one-third of the height of the entire tower.
If this floor height continues, then the number of floors in this tower will be between six and seven floors.
In fact, when Ye Qiong saw this tower for the first time, he subconsciously thought it had nine floors!
no way……
Deep down, I have a special belief in the number nine. After all, Nine-Five is the Supreme One.
Just in case, Ye Qiong called a few soldiers up from the first floor and asked them to stay on the second floor temporarily. If Ye Tianling and the others encountered any trouble on the third floor, they could provide timely support.
As for Ye Qiong himself, after the soldiers passed by, he directly stuck the torch on the wall nearby.
The wooden knot on the wall seemed to be used to catch things. When the torch in Ye Qiong's hand was stuck, the size was just right.
Ye Qiong half-crouched down, pulled out a fire stick from his waist, and blew on it. The fire stick buzzed and began to burn.
"Dangdang..."
The index finger of his right hand touched the template of the stairs lightly, giving Ye Qiong a very solid feeling.
Wood is a building material that is very susceptible to weathering and decay.
Under normal circumstances, if it can be used for a few years, it is already good wood. If it can be used for more than ten years, it is high-quality wood.
But in Ye Qiong's impression, some wood can be used for thousands of years!
For example, something like golden nanmu.
On Snow Star, at least the Ye Qiong tribe, there is not much research on wood. The wood information recorded by the tribe is very limited.
To the tribes, wood…
It is used for burning, followed by building materials.
The tribe needs to migrate every year no matter what season it is, so they will not spend time and energy on selecting wood.
To put it simply, it just works.
For a tribe that migrates all year round, there is no difference between being able to maintain a building for decades and being able to maintain a building for a year.
But as the central tribe settled, there were also the development of individual bases.
For the buildings being built by the tribe now, the service life must be considered.
Naturally, the longer it can be used, the better!
The wooden steps under your feet give Ye Qiong a very solid feeling.
What Ye Qiong wants to find out now is whether the wood itself is very strong, or whether it is coated with something to make it durable and strong.
If it's the former, it actually doesn't mean much to the tribe. Whether this kind of wood can be found is another matter. It may have been extinct in today's abnormal summer-winter intersection system.
And if something is applied on it to make ordinary wood so durable and strong, then its value will be immeasurable.
It can even play a big role in promoting the overall development of the tribe!
With a stable and safe place to live, the tribesmen and soldiers can devote themselves wholeheartedly to production and construction.
When he thought of this, Ye Qiong looked up at the entrance to the third floor again. Instead of walking over, he stood up and walked down.
Halfway through, Ye Qiong turned around and lay down on the wooden steps.
"Hiss...hiss..."
First, he gently wiped the steps with his right hand, then Ye Qiong put his nose to it and started to suck in.
A sort of……
It has a faint fishy smell, not bad, but not fragrant either, just a very strange smell.
After asking about the smell, Ye Qiong stood up and sniffed the air a few more times, and his face suddenly became happy.
"bass!"
After throwing out the fire stick in his hand, Ye Qiong turned around and jumped down from the wooden stairs.
As soon as the toes landed, the figure flew up again and rushed towards one of the four stone walls...
