Ghost Blows Out the Light

I saw that the underpass had been opened, and I was relieved to take photos of the underpass with a flashlight. There was a stone step made of black stone, leading obliquely to the bottom. The scope of the flashlight was limited, and I couldn't see it in the depths.

The fat man waved in and greeted the five people who were waiting at the gate of the temple. Everyone saw the opening of the underworld and they all praised my definite acupoint method.

It was already noon, and I humbly made a few words, and let the guys pack up and try to dress lightly. I went to the temple outside to drink some water and eat a few mouthfuls of dry food. I didn't know how far this secret road had to go.

When eating dry food, Sa Dipeng asked me curiously, how to find the secret road, too accurate.

I said to him: "When I look at the arrangement of the sixteen stone pillars, I know that the layout of the underpass is the giant gate formation method passed down in ancient times. Why is it called the giant gate? That is to say, this kind of mechanism is mostly used in On the portal of the passage, these mathematics are all evolved from the Luoshu ① and the arrangement of stars in the sky. The mystery inside can be deepened, and you ca n’t understand it. "

When the people rested a little, I led the secret passage in the temple. Below the entrance, a stone rod was found that could be used to open the floor tile from below. These institutions are ingeniously designed. After nearly two thousand years, the machine is still usable, and the construction principles are very unusual. Although many countable concepts are used, they are self-contained. If these are invented by the elite queen Yes, then she must be a genius who is not born.

At the beginning, we were worried that there was an organization in the underpass. When we were descending, we were careful and pulled away from each other slowly. When we reached the end of the stone steps, our eyes suddenly opened up, and there was a corridor with a width of five meters and a height of three meters.

The Yongdao is no longer surrounded by dark stones, all of which are piled up by the Western Region ② bricks, and the top of the head is built into a round arch, and the walls are filled with strange and bright murals.

The eyes that appear most in the painting are the eyes, both large and small, open and closed, some only draw eyeballs, and some have eyelids and eyelashes. The sacred person sees the eyes as a totem. This Yongdao leads to the temple, and has so many eyes painted. It must be that only rulers like clergy and queens are eligible to enter. It may not be used many times since its completion.

This Yongdao is very closed, there is no air circulation, the color of the mural is as new, and there is no flaking, which makes Professor Chen and others look excited.

Professor Chen said that as far back as the early nineteenth century, there were a large number of murals in the ruins of the ancient city of Xinjiang discovered by foreign explorers, almost all of which were religious, but unfortunately the government did not protect them at that time, they were completely looted and lost foreign. Unexpectedly, here you can still see such a complete preservation, and it is the oldest and most mysterious fresco in the 36 countries of the Western Regions, which is enough to shock the whole world.

When I heard the professor say this, I thought of the legend that the queen is a monster. This ancient city is very strange. If there is a monster, you might be able to find some clues from this mural. If you really encounter it, you will know yourselves and fight against each other, so you fight. Watch the murals one by one.

However, in all the Yongdao murals, there is no figure of the Queen at all. The contents of the paintings are some ceremonies. Some of them painted a jade eyeball to shine, and a black hole appeared in the sky, and a giant eye fell down the hole. Flesh eggs.

Some paintings depict countless black monsters crawling out of fleshy eggs, biting several tied slaves, and the slaves struggled painfully.

There are also paintings of black mountain peaks, which are covered with black snakes, and the surrounding beasts all kneel to the ground and kowtow to the strange snakes on the mountain.

Some of these scenes we have seen before, this comparison with the situation depicted on the murals further confirms Professor Chen ’s judgment that this strange snake with black eyeballs on its head has always been regarded as a guardian beast by the elite. They know how to summon and drive these snakes and beasts, and often sacrifice sacrifices to them with living people. They never imagined that these ancient snakes still existed in the world for thousands of years when the ancient country was buried under the sand sea.

We watched as we walked, and stopped before the last painting. This mural is a huge cave with a slender ladder circling down the cave wall.

Shirley Yang said to Professor Chen: "Do you see the origin of this cave and the name of the Ghost Cave family? Does it matter?"

Professor Chen said: "It is very likely that the spiral staircase on the wall of this cave is small like a thin line, and it is completely disproportionate to this big cave. Such a big cave straight up and down is definitely not something human can dig out. Is this a ghost hole? "

I remember hearing from them that the legendary ghost cave family came from the underground. At that time, I did n’t think much about it. I thought it was purely nonsense by ancient people. Now that I have seen the mural paintings, I have doubts in my mind. It seems that it wasn't the reason that Xu Xuan was drawn to bluff people. Maybe there is such a big hole in the depths of Jingju Ancient City.

The fat man smiled and said: "If there is such a big hole in the world, wouldn't it reach the other end of the earth? If you want to go abroad and save trouble, don't take a plane and jump directly from this big hole, and you will arrive in the United States in a little while. "

Shirley Yang didn't listen to the nonsense of the fat man, and asked Professor Chen: "The giant pupil stone portrait of the ghost cave clan is probably their original face. If they really come from the dark world underground, then they can explain their eyes to the eyes. Respected. "

Professor Chen said: "You have a certain truth, there is another possibility. This huge cave is the alien world that has repeatedly appeared in the ghost cave civilization, which is what you call the imaginary space. This is probably a Entities. In ancient times, ghost cavemen discovered this huge cave, they could not explain why there is such a large underground cave in the world, do their best, and could not go down to the bottom of the cave. The ancients admired the power of nature, they Perhaps this huge cave is used as a miracle to perform worship services. They hope their eyes are more developed and they can see the situation at the bottom of the cave. A few people claim that their eyes can see the world at the bottom of the cave. Respect, become a tribal ruler or clergyman, because their power comes from the eyes, so they regard the eyes as the source of power. "

After hearing the professor ’s words, the fat man folded his heart and gave a thumbs-up praise: "Oh, sir, you can see so many halls with just one painting. It looks like you. If you go to practice, you will be able to ridicule a lot of money and sell what kind of fire. "

Professor Chen was not in a mood to laugh with him, and he casually responded: "I'm just subjectively speculating, and I can't do it accurately. Let's go out and see if there is such a big cave, we still have to see it."

I do n’t know why, when I heard them talk about underground caves, I remembered seeing the nine-story demon tower at the bottom of Kunlun Mountain. At that time, I lost several comrades in arms, and since then I have been more afraid of the deep underground caves. Psychology. I am very worried about the accidents of the people in the archaeological team. If it is not necessary to enter the underground palace to find the water source, I really want to pull them back. Since the desert archaeology has achieved major results, it is not that bad.

I said to the professor: "The body of a thousand dollars, don't sit in danger. You are all people in the society, there is no need to take risks. When we find the water source in the underground palace, after supplementing, we should go back. Since we have found In the ancient city of Jingjue, our task has been completed. You can write an assessment report to the relevant department at a higher level, and let the government solve the rest.

Professor Chen shook his head, but did not speak. He wanted to explore the mystery of the ghost cave civilization all his life. He had arrived here. It was very itchy, how to agree, and Shirley Yang always thought that her father ’s expedition had been there. The ancient city is so refined, she won't be willing to rest without finding the end, they said they won't go back.

I had no choice but to follow them and continue to move forward. I thought that I have done my best. Anything I should have said. If something really happened, I would have no doubts.

The Yongdao is not long, and there are no steps at the end. There is only one stone pillar and no portal. Could it be that the Yongdao under the temple is a dead end, just to paint the murals of the sacrificial ceremonies?

The fat man looked around and turned to me and said, "Lao Hu, do you have any moves this time? Use explosives if you don't."

I said, "Do you have anything other than violent means? Use your brain, let's look at it first, and I guess most of the secret door will still land on this single stone pillar."

This solitary stone pillar standing in the sky brick tunnel is several times smaller than the sixteen large stone pillars in the temple, but the shape is exactly the same. The bottom of the pillar also has a six-sided statue, and the empty side is directly opposite. The narrow wall at the end.

This is easy to handle. It turns out that the dragon tail of this sixteen dragon is here. I still let the fat man's helper turn the hexagonal stone plate under the stone pillar according to the "Shaking Dragon Skill" opposite to the "Dragon Hunting Order" in "Sixteen Character Yin-Yang Fengshui Secret Technique".

"Dragon qi enters the acupuncture point, the yang is convergent, and the yin is not divided into five points," according to the "shaking dragon formula", in fact, it is just to reverse the order of turning the stone plate in the temple.

We turned the stone tray to the end, and the sky brick wall in front of us responded. The fat man picked up the assault rifle, and immediately went out of the sky brick. The rest of the people waited for the fish to come out.

Everyone came outside and looked around with a flashlight. Although it was an underground building, the surrounding space was huge. Although the carved beams and columns had been peeled off, they still could see the magnificent weather of the year, and they really arrived in the underground palace.

We seem to be in the main hall of the Underground Palace. The exit of the brick wall came after a throne carved in jade. This dark wall is very delicately repaired. There is no hidden door behind the jade in the hall.

Finally, we came to the palace of Jingjue, which used to exist only in the legend. We used all the lighting equipment we carried in order to see it carefully. I saw that the throne and floor of the hall were all jade. The lamp chain on the ceiling of the ceiling was also decayed and broken, and it fell to the ground. There were several gerbils crawling in the corners. It seems that the air is circulating here. In addition to some jade products, pottery, wood, iron, bronze, silk and other objects were extremely damaged by air erosion.

For us, this situation is a mixed blessing. The joy is that since there is flowing air in the underground palace, it means that it is connected with the groundwater veins. Ye Yixin's fortunetelling was picked up.

Worryingly, the antiquities in the underground palace were damaged quite badly, some of the pots were rotten, and they turned into powder when touched, and there were countless rusty and mottled armor blades scattered around, such as tentacle arc swords and cranes Mouth giant axe, arc-backed concave blade knife, armor has a variety of eccentric brand ornaments and buckles with national characteristics, and the owners of these round shield scimitars have no bones. If you look carefully, you may also find a few incomplete ones. Skull.

I don't know when it started here, a lot of gerbils got in. Gerbils usually feed on the roots of desert plants and insects in the desert. They like to grind their teeth with hard objects. Many things in this palace are eaten by them.

The best preserved in the main hall is the throne of jade. A red jade eye is carved on the top of the jade, the body is inlaid with gold and silver, and engraved with clouds of fairy mountains, flowers, birds, fishes and beasts. The base is a large piece of sheep. The milky white jade is particularly eye-catching in the main hall with black tone.

Seeing this dilapidated situation, the fat man was greatly disappointed. He sat on the jade seat and slapped the armrests, saying: "This is also worth some money. The rest will directly contact the broken one and send it to the waste recycling station."

I thought that this grandson could not change this loose temper, no organization and no discipline, I had to scare him, so as not to make Shirley Yang laugh, they said to the fat man: "I said Comrade Wang Kaixuan, this is a feudal dynasty Do n’t forget that you are also a family of revolutionary cadres. If you sit there, your principles and positions will not be needed. "

The fat man laughed: "Come on, Lao Hu, and pretend to be a political commissar? It's a matter of time and again. Do you think this jade throne can be worth a million dollars? ... Hey, this head is a little bigger, no It's really not easy to move back after breaking up. "

I then said to the fat man: "Don't think about how it moved back, I tell you that you don't believe it, this jade seat is where the elite queen sat before her death, maybe her undead is wandering in this palace, thousands of Over the years, it ’s lonely and lonely, just because you ’re here, maybe the queen will see you, she must think, hey, this big fat man is really good, with so much fat meat on him The son-in-law of the peerless back door forgets, it's fine to bite and grind his teeth. "

These words didn't scare the fat man. Ye Yixin was already barely able to leave. Shirley Yang had been supporting her. When I heard that the ghost of the dead woman was still in this palace, Ye Yixin was stunned after her eyes were turned. .

Shirley Yang stomped his feet anxiously: "Can you two not be nonsense? Don't look at when, or come to help."

I saw that the fat man was in trouble again, so I didn't dare to fight again. In the past, I lifted Ye Yixin and put it on the fat man's back, let him carry it. The fat man said a little less, and I didn't think it was too much. : "Son-in-law of the backward door? I have never seen you such an illiterate person. You are a widow in the country, the queen's husband, what should it be called ... What should it be called? It shouldn't be called a concubine?"

Shirley Yang saw that the fat man was still nagging and couldn't help but say, "Call the eunuch."

Hao Patriotic died in the archaeological team, and the atmosphere was very depressed. At this time, the laugh was really outdated. I forcibly resisted and searched with the crowd in the vast underground palace to find places with water.

The royal palace in the underground of the ancient country is not as big as I had imagined. Only the main hall is quite large. The side halls on both sides are relatively simple. The gate and stone steps of the front hall are sealed by sand, close to the gate of the front hall. , A black stone roof was destroyed by explosives, which means that some people have entered this mansion before. Looking at the damage degree and traces of the stone gate, it is not a recent act, let alone a history of more than a few decades, very Probably the owner of the black and white photo, this gap has been buried by the yellow sand.

I saw the side halls on both sides and then turned to the apse. This is where the royal family rests and lives. There are several jade-enclosed fountains, but they have already dried up. The group watched as they walked, Shirley suddenly said, "Do you hear the sound of running water?"

I put my ears up and listened. Sure enough, the water gurgled not far away. Seeing that the direction was behind the dormitory. Now everyone accelerated their footsteps and followed the sound of water to a cave behind the temple.

The cave is extremely low, and it walked deep down to a natural stone cave of the size of a stadium. Although it is natural, it is obviously artificially repaired. The ground is very flat and there is a small underground in the cave. The lake has a convex ground, like a small island in the heart of the lake, only ten square meters in size. The flat lake is like a mirror and surrounds it.

Our group of people have been drinking only the lowest amount of water for a week, let alone in the desert. Usually, it is enough to drink such a little water a day. At this time, when we see the cool groundwater, we are eager to stick our heads in. Guzzle.

Shirley Yang stopped everyone: "This water source has been abandoned for many years, and I don't know it is still standing water. Besides, underground rivers are constantly diverted. The groundwater now may not be the same as that of two thousand years ago. There are the most underground sulphur in the Western Region. What if the water is poisonous , Look before you talk. "

I took a closer look and saw a few colorful fish swimming in the lake, and smiled: "Don't worry, there are fish in this lake, there must be springs in the depths, it is live water, and it will not be poisonous."

As soon as this remark came out, the rest of the people could no longer care about anything. They rushed to the lake and sipped their mouths to drink water. They all filled their stomachs, and still felt that they did not drink enough. Running water, just stop.

Ye Yixin had dehydration and could not drink a lot of water directly. Shirley Yang gave her a little bit of salt and a pot of water. We drink too much water, we can't move, we can only rest on the spot.

I never thought the water tasted so good. I lay on my back with my stomach clasped, leaning my eyes closed. At this time, the surroundings were quiet. I seemed to hear the sound of water flowing in the distance. It seems that there are more than one water vein in this palace. The small lake where we drink water is very quiet. The sound of the water flowing in the apse is from a source farther away. It should be an underground river with a large flow. Maybe it is to bypass the Zagrama Mountain. Zidu Underwater.

Just when I was thinking about it, I heard Shirley Yang yell, and the voice was full of surprises. I hurriedly sat up with my hands on my back and asked her what was going on. Shirley Yang pointed at the convex ground of the lake and gestured for me there.

Professor Chen and others sat up from the ground one after another, and everyone looked in the direction pointed by Shirley Yang and saw an incredible scene.

On the convex ground in the lake, I do n’t know when, there are tens of thousands of green mayflies, and their bodies gradually become grayish white, crawling out of the shell one by one, crawling out The insects behind the shell seem to have a lot of fluorescence, shining and shining, as bright as the stars in the sky. The insects stretch the wings they just got, and they can fly to the sky in a little while.

At this moment, countless large rats entered the cave from all directions. These mice were not afraid of humans at all. They turned a blind eye to us and jumped into the lake without hesitation. Convexly, greedily grabbed the insects that had just returned to their shells, and continually sent them to their mouths to eat them.

We saw these big rats swimming in the lake. It seems that these mice must have dinner here often, otherwise how could they be so skilled, thinking of the unspeakable nausea here, open their mouths and vomit, put the belly of the lake water, He spit it out intact again.

The group of rats ate enough to swim back to shore and scattered.

Chu Jian picked up the broken stones on the ground and wanted to throw them away to drive away the big rats that were walking slowly. I stopped him. The rules passed down from my grandfather ’s generation in our family, the people of the old Hu family must not hurt the mice, anyway. These mice are also intact with people, just go with them.

The fat man scolded: "Lao Hu, you're fucking, it's called palliative raising. It turns out that this water is a place for mice to take a bath and eat, but his mother is sickening me. hair."

I said, "Don't mention whether it's okay or not, the more you think about the **** disgust, let's not stay here and change places."

No one wants to drink the water here, so we have to continue to search for the underground dark river deep in the cave. There is no other way here, there is only one channel, and the sound of flowing water comes from the other end of the channel.

We walked along the road, the greater the water vapor, the damper the four walls. There are many artificially cut stone chambers on both sides of this passage, all equipped with iron fences and big locks, and there are a lot of torture tools in it. It seems to be used to hold prisoners. It's all mouse dung.

Going into the tunnel in the cave, traveling hundreds of meters away, I finally saw a fast-flowing dark river running across the mouth of the cave. This is the Zeduk dark river that has been running under the sand sea for thousands of years and has never dried up. The river is not only large in flow but also deep, and will merge with the Tarim River at the end of it.

However, the inland rivers in the Xinjiang desert have a characteristic that no matter how big the river flow is, they cannot rush out of the desert into the sea. The inland rivers and underground underground rivers of these deserts will eventually be swallowed by the desert.

There is another big cave across the river, connected by a black stone bridge in the middle. The bridge body is also made of black stones from Zagrama Mountain, and the flying frame is above the turbulent waters of the Zidu River.

In front of the cave at the other end of the Black Bridge, there is a sluice gate, which is suspended halfway with a large iron chain of human thickness. There is also a huge stone underneath. Looking into the cave from the gate, it is unfathomable.

Professor Chen was taken aback: "It was found that the stone gate of the underground palace was blown open by someone. It must have been that someone had come in. The gate is so heavy, and it is at the deepest point on the third floor of the underground palace. The place where the Queen will rest. "

In ancient Western countries, the tombs of royal family members were often set in the city, instead of opening mountains as mausoleums and repairing tombs like the Hans of the Central Plains. This point we have already learned in the ancient city of Xiye. The tomb was built in the holy well of the old city, so it ’s not surprising that the professor thought that the tomb of the exquisite queen was under the underground palace.

It's just that everyone feels a little too smooth. There were expeditions to this palace before, and the cave was not hidden. It must have been discovered by predecessors. Could it be that the people who entered the Queen's tomb died in it? What's in there? Is the giant cave in the mural also inside?

I asked Professor Chen for the meaning, go in or not?

Professor Chen said without hesitation: "Go in! I must go and see if the Queen's Tomb has been stolen and destroyed. If you don't take a glance, I will not die, if this old bone is buried in It ’s a dead place inside. I ’m so old, I do n’t care about anything, but you kids are still young, you do n’t want to go anymore, I can do it all by myself. ”

Shirley Yang was loading new film for her camera without raising her head, and said, "I will go naturally." She spoke lightly, as if she had never thought about whether to enter the tomb of the Queen of Exquisiteness, but only the first This is the second question.

As soon as I saw this, I couldn't help but go in. If one of them lost out, I was at ease and let the fat man stay to take care of the three students.

The fat man was reluctant to hear it: "Why did the work of the aunt in this nursery go to me? If you go in, I'm not at ease. I'm going to go with you, or don't let anyone go in. You can rest assured, what is there I do n’t take gold and silver treasures. "

Chu Jian Sa Di Peng and others did not take them in, and hurriedly begged, anyway, they wanted to go in and see, this opportunity is too rare, thousands of miles across the Black Desert, how much hardship did they come to the ancient city of Jing, how? Can you look at this most important tomb of the queen? And in case something is wrong, you can also help everyone.

Everyone wants to go here, what about Ye Yixin, who is still weak and awake for a while? Ye Yixin added some cold salt water. At this moment, he already had some strength and said to everyone: "Don't leave me here alone. I have no problem with my health. I will go in with everyone."

When I saw this, it was troublesome. No matter how big I was, the fat man and I couldn't take care of the five people. Besides, they were all old and weak women and children, so the big guy Chu Jian could help us.

I said to everyone: "If you do n’t do this, I ’ll go in and see if there ’s no danger in it. Let ’s go in together. If I do n’t come out after more than four or five hours, do n’t wait for me. Thousands Don't enter the tomb again, leave here quickly. "

The fat man said, "If it doesn't work, we'll go to the two of us together, or we'll have a care."

I patted the fat man's shoulder: "I'll do it alone. I'm okay with my life. In case I have three long and two short, you have to take everyone out safely."

Shirley Yang said: "Yes, don't be so tragic, I will go with you."

I thought I heard it wrong: "You go with me? Don't joke, if there is any danger, I am easy to get out by myself, you follow, I'm afraid I can't take care of you."

Shirley Yang said: "I still can't say who is taking care of who. Anyway, you can't let yourself go into the Queen's tomb to take risks alone." She said she took the sports rifle in Chu Jian's hand and whipped the bolt. Seeing that the bullet was full, she pushed the bullet to the top of the bullet, and with these two shots, I secretly spit out my tongue. Dare to be a gun expert, I hadn't seen it before.

The two of us were busy packing up the app's equipment. The fat man said to me quietly, "Hey, Laohu, I think she hasn't looked right in your eyes recently, is it a bit interesting to you? This is where you start. Sticky? "

I laughed and scolded: "I think your fuckin's eyes are bad. I didn't even see it. You saw it? I'm not interested in her. I don't dare to ask for a woman who is too strong. Besides, our old man wants See me picking up an American girl, but I can't even unload me. "

The fat man said, "You just have this awakening. I'm really afraid that you will find a wife like this. She's like a man who has two bad money. She looks like a cowboy and looks down on him. Fuck. Are you coming? Small leather shoes clucking, bourgeois smelly thinking. You must withstand the offensive of the sugar-coated shells. "

I filled the assault rifle that was picked up by the tomb robbers in the valley with bullets, carried the explosives and the shovel on my back, replaced the flashlight with a new spare battery, and put the gold touch made of the pangolin claws in my hand. Hold it for a while: "I beg your grandpa to bless it."

At this time Shirley Yang also finished, she asked me if I could see the internal structure of the tomb, I said: "This kind of tomb under the city I have never heard of, if you let me look at the structure inside a tomb from the outside, I must go through the earth , Look at the situation, find the star peak, identify the water source, measure the location, fix the acupuncture field, investigate the depth and so on. Use these feng shui techniques to determine the age and internal structure of the ancient tomb, but this tomb is under the city, such an ancient tomb, I still The first time I saw that there was a bridge with water in front of the tomb gate, which was not in accordance with Feng Shui theory. I really ca n’t see what is famous in the tomb. After we went in, we should be careful, especially be careful not to trigger any organs. It is the kind of monster snake with black eyes on its head. They move so fast that it is difficult to dodge. "

Shirley Yang nodded. When I first walked across the stone bridge, I followed closely. Under the watch of five other people, the two of us passed the black stone bridge one after the other and drilled in under the Qianjin brake.
