Chapter 134 Suddenly, Su Yun Was Frightened!

…

Munan City is located on the southwest border of Daxia, close to Zang District in the northwest and adjacent to Jiewai in the south.

Stretching mountains are the main impression of this city, and there has always been a joke here that trains are not as fast as cars.

In this city, some areas still maintain the characteristic styles of ethnic minorities.

They are divided into villages and still retain their own traditions and customs.

In the very center is the vigorously developed commercial district, with high-rise buildings rising from the ground, creating extremely high economic development for Munan.

In Munan, almost any road can lead to the mountains, and among these mountains, Cangluan Mountain is the most famous.

No ordinary people are allowed to enter Cangluan Mountain. Firstly, it is a nature reserve. Secondly, the mountain crosses the border, so a border military zone has been set up and guarded by soldiers.

The border defense military region was established in the hidden southernmost part of Cangluan Mountain.

Compared with other conventional forces, the Border Defense Military Region can be said to be licking blood from the edge of a knife.

People are accustomed to living and working in peace and contentment, and the country is peaceful and the people are safe. In fact, it is because there are countless border guards guarding the borders of the entire country.

They must not only take strict precautions against all criminals who attempt to cross the border illegally, but also prevent some contraband from flowing in through border channels.

This also requires them to not only build a very complete line of defense, but also have the foresight of intelligence.

The two are indispensable for the border defense forces that form a tight line of defense.

At this time, in the Munan Border Defense Military Region, Commander Feng Shaoyu was looking at the intelligence document submitted by the soldiers with a frown on his face.

The content stated in the document made Feng Shaoyu feel a little uneasy.

The soldier who was standing aside submitting the documents also faced Feng Shaoyu and said seriously:

“Chief, according to our investigations in the past few days, people operating outside the border are becoming more and more frequent.

They seem to belong to different overseas forces. Some of them are hiding outside the boundary and looking at the situation inside the boundary through telescopes. There are also some mysterious people gathering in the border cities of the territorial countries.

According to historical data, overseas forces have recently been operating more and more frequently in cities close to the borders of territorial countries.

But at present, we have not found out what their purpose is, and we cannot trace the source of these people's power.

and……"

Speaking of this, the soldier's voice suddenly paused, and then his expression looked a little strange.

"Don't worry, mother-in-law, if you have anything to say, just say it!"

Feng Shaoyu said sharply.

The soldier swallowed, and then, as if he had made a lot of determination, he said:

“There is another piece of intelligence, but its authenticity cannot be confirmed at this time.

Someone saw a familiar figure, which looked very much like the mountain eagle from back then. "

"Mountain eagle? Which mountain eagle?"

"Twenty-three years ago..."

When the soldier mentioned this number, Feng Shaoyu suddenly thought of it.

"Okay, stop talking!"

He interrupted immediately, seeming to mention something that shouldn't be discussed. But at the same time, these words reached Feng Shaoyu's ears, causing him to quickly frown.

"The mountain eagle has been discharged from the army a long time ago. How could it appear here? Did you see it wrong?"

Facing Feng Shaoyu's question, the soldier gently shook his head:

"I don't know, I can't verify its authenticity."

Although Feng Shaoyu was confused about this, he still did not believe that the mountain eagle would really appear here.

If the authenticity cannot be verified, then it is probably a mistake.

Therefore, Feng Shaoyu didn't take it too seriously.

He looked out the window thoughtfully, from where he could see the direction of the border.

“When something goes wrong, there must be a monster!

Our borders have always been sacrosanct to outsiders, and most of the time they don't even dare to get close.

Suddenly, people began to frequently move around the border. There must be some reason that we don't know. "

The soldier who reported the report quickly nodded and said worriedly:

“At present, we don’t know what the other party’s purpose is, but according to various clues, there are undercurrents from various overseas forces.

As those people come into contact with the border area more and more frequently, they seem to be planning something, and it is likely that there will be big moves. "

Just as the soldier finished speaking, Feng Shaoyu snorted coldly:

"They dare!"

Immediately afterwards, Feng Shaoyu stood up, looked at the soldiers and said sonorously:

"Immediately order to dispatch additional border defense forces from the original three squads to five squads.

If this group of people only operates in territorial cities outside the border, we have no right to interfere. Once they try to cross the threshold, let them see our methods. "

"yes!"

The soldier quickly agreed and left Feng Shaoyu's office.

Feng Shaoyu looked at the document placed on the table, his brows furrowed and his expression always serious.

He naturally knew that something wrong must have happened with this sudden change.

However, the current lack of information makes it difficult for Feng Shaoyu to make a clear judgment on this matter.

There seemed to be an undercurrent suddenly surging outside the world, and multiple forces seemed to want to take action at the same time. This would rarely happen normally.

Therefore, Feng Shaoyu will also think deeply about this. Only by figuring out what the outside forces want to do as soon as possible can he take more complete precautions.

"Dong dong dong..."

Just as Feng Shaoyu was thinking, there was a sudden knock on the door, and then deputy commander Peng Hai strode in.

"Old Feng, the professors coming from Rongyang City are coming soon, shouldn't we get ready?"

"Arrived so soon?"

"Of course, they take this operation very seriously. It is said that they can basically judge that their target is in Cangluan Mountain."

Feng Shaoyu nodded, and then said as if he thought of something again:

"The Rongyang City Military Region has sent a cooperation order. Judging from their protection this time, the target that the professors are looking for is very important.

Not only did the Rongyang City police send personnel to protect them, but the military also personally led the team for Captain Xu to escort them along the way.

We must also start preparations immediately. In the next actions, we must ensure that the professors will not make any mistakes within our boundaries. "

"clear!"

The professors they mentioned were none other than Professor Sun Mo, Chen Jie, and Professor Cai who came from Rongyang City.

Due to time constraints, they did not delay too much in Rongcheng and immediately set off to Munan City.

They have only one goal, and that is Cangluan Mountain!

…

Just when Feng Shaoyu and Peng Hai got the news and rushed to the gate of the military area, they saw several military vehicles that were already covered with mud lined up and slowly drove into the military area.

This journey would have been a long one, if not for Professor Sun and the others who had to bring some professional equipment and were unwilling to be separated from the equipment.

They had no choice but to take a military vehicle, otherwise they would have arrived at the military area by helicopter by now.

Soon, Xu Kui and the guards who accompanied him took the lead and walked down from the military vehicle in front.

Immediately behind in a car were Professor Sun and other archaeologists.

In a military vehicle further behind was Chen Ye and other police personnel, followed by the accompanying military team.

After a brief courtesy, the group quickly gathered in the conference room.

The military representative of Rongyang City participating in this meeting was Xu Kui, and the police representatives were Chen Ye and Zhou Xiaoxiao.

The representative of the Border Defense Military Region is Commander Feng Shaoyu.

The protagonists of this meeting are naturally Professor Sun and others.

But there was an unexpected person at the scene who also followed Professor Sun and others. This person was none other than Mr. Gu, who was famous in the field of antiques.

Of course, according to Gu Ye's temper, he is usually very reluctant to deal with official people.

But Professor Sun made a special trip and presented a choice to Mr. Gu.

In fact, Mr. Gu's abilities are not weak, especially his knowledge of antiques and history.

Therefore, this operation is also an opportunity for Gu Ye to clear his name.

As the saying goes, you can't give up face, so you can't go against the official, right? Gu Ye did not reject Professor Sun's proposal and successfully joined the archaeological team.

However, Master Gu is currently sitting among several professors, and his aura of the world is still very obvious.

After all, this meeting is so important to Professor Sun and others, and the Border Defense Military Region is enough to give them face, even having the commander personally attend the meeting.

But Mr. Gu didn't seem to be too cold about it. Although he was cautious because he had never seen such a big battle, his charlatanism still seemed out of tune with the others.

"Professors, let's make a long story short. In the joint investigation order of the Rongyang City Military Region, we also learned that this operation is very urgent.

If there is anything we need to do in the Border Defense Military Region, just say so and we will implement it in the shortest possible time. "

Feng Shaoyu got straight to the point without beating around the bush, which is in line with a soldier's temperament, just like Xu Kui also likes this straightforward way of getting along.

As a representative of the archaeological team, it is natural that an authoritative expert like Professor Sun is speaking at this moment.

"Commander Feng, it's like this. Since our actions need to be concealed in the document, we didn't mention it too much. Since everyone is already sitting here, it doesn't hurt to talk about it.

Some time ago we learned about an ancient tomb, and this ancient tomb will play a very critical role in the archaeological history and genetic research of Daxia.

Based on our investigation during this period, we can basically judge that this ancient tomb should be located in Cangluan Mountain.

So we rushed over as soon as possible.

We hope that the Border Defense Military Region can cooperate with us as soon as possible to establish an archaeological stronghold and implement a comprehensive 24-hour blockade around the stronghold.

We will also find the location of the ancient tomb as soon as possible and complete this necessary archaeological operation. "

Feng Shaoyu quickly agreed without saying a word, because the relevant information was actually reflected in the documents. The reason why we sat here for the meeting was just to get acquainted with each other to facilitate future work.

But at the same time, Feng Shaoyu has always had a doubt in his heart, because both the documents and Professor Sun's narration only mentioned the ancient tomb, but did not indicate the age of the ancient tomb, or whose tomb it was.

Therefore, after the most important decision had been made, Feng Shaoyu also asked curiously:

"Professors, what kind of tomb are you looking for?

I have been here in the Border Defense Military Region for many years, but I have never heard of any legends about the ancient tombs of celebrities on Cangluan Mountain. "

Hearing this, Chen Jie, who was sitting next to Professor Sun, gently pushed up her gold-rimmed glasses. Her behavior still exuded the elegance of a mature woman:

"Commander Feng didn't mention it before because the matter is very important. Now that you ask, we have no need to hide it.

The ancient tomb we are looking for is probably the tomb of Chi You. "

"Chi You?"

Feng Shaoyu had made many guesses before this, but he never expected that the professor who was spending so much money would actually be for a legendary figure.

"Chi You? Is there really such a person?"

Chen Jie smiled, but said helplessly:

“We are currently unable to give an accurate answer on this point. Only after finding the ancient tomb can we have an accurate conclusion.

This is why we are in such a hurry, there is no room for any delay in this matter. "

Feng Shaoqi didn't ask any more questions, although the news still surprised him.

Before dawn on the second day, the gate of the border defense military area was already opened, and groups of heavily armed border guards were dispatched one after another, and soon they established perimeter defenses at the location estimated by the archaeological team.

Professor Sun and others stood in the military area in high spirits. After the peripheral defense construction was completed, they would immediately enter the Cangluan Mountain and start exploring the specific location of the ancient tomb.

Mr. Gu, who had never seen this kind of movement before, seemed a bit awkward standing in the archaeological team.

At this moment, he was sleepy and tired, but because he was surrounded by big people, he had to restrain his actions, and he had to be careful even when he yawned.

Because this operation was so urgent, Professor Sun and the others had no time to dispatch manpower from other places to form an archaeological team.

Therefore, we can only find as many relevant people as possible to determine the location of the ancient tomb first, and then make adjustments if necessary.

This can be fully illustrated by the fact that Professor Sun went into battle in person at such a young age.

Half an hour later, Feng Shaoyu came to Professor Sun and others and nodded lightly:

"Professors, the perimeter defense has been completed, and the border guards have camped on the mountain at the location you marked.

All relevant instruments and equipment have been transported to the mountain, and you can go there at any time. "

Xu Kui saluted Feng Shaoyu:

"Thank you for your support, Chief. In this case, we will not delay any longer and set off immediately!"

Since the routes to the destination were basically mountain roads, military vehicles could no longer go there a few kilometers after leaving the military area, so Xu Kui and others had to get off the car and walk to the mountains.

When it was just dawn, everyone had arrived at the camp, and the group quickly divided into three groups and started doing their own business.

Professor Sun and others began to mobilize equipment to find the specific location of the ancient tomb, while Xu Kui and others negotiated with the person in charge of the peripheral prevention operation to ensure that nothing was missed in the entire defense line.

As for Chen Ye and others, they contacted the Munan City Police as soon as possible, and the Munan City Police dispatched manpower to form a second-level prevention area.

A few hours later, the entire defense area had basically formed its outermost perimeter, which was guarded by the military with loaded guns and live ammunition. On the inside, there were special police officers on standby under the command of Chen Ye.

These precautions are all to allow Professor Sun and others to find the location of Chi You's tomb without any scruples.

After all, this place is special, close to the border, and there are some things that we have to guard against.

Professor Sun and others were fully immersed in their work at this moment, and Chen Jie also changed into cross-country clothes that were easy to move around.

This neutral outfit, paired with a pair of black boots, set off Chen Jie's dashing and heroic demeanor.

Professor Sun currently holds the detector in his hand, and the instrument display screen is in Professor Cai's hand. The two of them work together to push forward.

As for Master Gu, his task is relatively simple. It does not require much physical activity. He only needs to read some ancient books and learn as much news about Chi You as possible.

With this two-pronged approach, the entire operation has been launched in an orderly manner.

Unknowingly, a day and a night have passed, and the archaeological team has not gained anything yet. They are currently meeting in the camp to discuss.

"Cangluan Mountain is too big, and Chiyou's tomb is very old. The changes caused by crustal movement are immeasurable."

Professor Sun looked at the people in front of him solemnly and said:

"Tomorrow we have to change direction and continue to go south to try to expand the search area."

Chen Jie pushed up her glasses, nodded slightly, and expressed her agreement:

"We have been searching continuously for more than 24 hours. I suggest everyone take a break and adjust as soon as possible.

There is still a tough battle to be fought tomorrow.

According to our plan, we determined the location of Chi You's tomb within three days. Now one day has passed, and the remaining two days are also our most critical moments. "

"I think there is no problem. All the clues we have so far point to Chi You's tomb, which is located in the Cangluan Mountain area.

We have searched half of the estimated area today. If we continue at this rate, if there are no errors in our previous investigations, we will definitely be able to find the holding destination location within the next two days. "

Professor Cai pondered and analyzed the current situation.

The few of them were chatting animatedly, but Mr. Gu, who was sitting next to him, was already fighting with his eyelids.

This is understandable, after all, Master Gu does not have the same sense of responsibility as Professor Cai and others.

After all, there are less than 700 qualified archaeological excavation team leaders in Daxia. Under such realistic conditions, the archaeological team often chooses to rent some soy sauce gangs who are purely physical.

If this operation was not so urgent, the number of people in the archaeological team would have at least doubled.

But these few people who can sit here now are already the best choices in this operation.

"Okay, if that's the case, let's go and have a rest."

Professor Sun quickly ended today's conversation, which made Gu Ye come immediately. He agreed again and again and ran back to his tent in a hurry.

Although he has no sense of responsibility, in fact, during the day and night of searching, Gu Ye did make quite a discovery through some ancient books.

According to records, Chiyou was defeated by Huangdi and Yandi in the battle of chasing deer, and his head was missing as a result.

But even though Chi You died in his tribe, he still came to a conclusion based on Gu Ye's investigation of the ancient scrolls. Chi You's tribe should eventually evolve into several ethnic groups.

After all, Chi You had 81 brothers at that time, and each brother was in charge of a tribe. After the battle, this large tribe disappeared and has evolved into today's Han, Miao, Yao, etc.

Because Chi You was defeated and his skills were different, there should be more than one grave for Chi You.

But the reason why we chose to conduct the investigation in Canglan Mountain is because Chi You's head and body are likely to be hidden here.

This is naturally the most significant place for research, but due to historical gaps, it is currently difficult to know what kind of preventive measures will be installed in this tomb.

This is Gu Ye's main goal. He must at least be able to have a basic estimate of the environment in the tomb when determining the location of the ancient tomb.

…

The next day, the archaeological team once again engaged in the search for Chi You's tomb.

Since it involves a transfer location, the transportation of some equipment naturally requires Chen Ye and others to accompany them.

Zhou Xiaoxiao had obviously never walked through so many mountain roads at one time, so although he didn't say it, he still looked a little tired.

Chen Ye, who was walking beside Zhou Xiaoxiao, continued to encourage Zhou Xiaoxiao along the way.

How many people like them who live in the city have walked through so many mountain roads?

And because Cangluan Mountain is at a very high altitude, altitude sickness is more likely to occur as you go south, so this journey is not easy for anyone.

The whole operation lasted for nearly 6 hours, but the final result made everyone happy.

"Found it! Chi You's tomb is at our feet!"

Professor Cai looked at the signal feedback from the display screen and his eyes widened with excitement. At this moment, his voice was trembling due to excessive excitement.

Professor Sun and others quickly came to Professor Cai's side. After repeatedly checking the signal feedback, they all smiled happily.

"Finally found it, right here!"

"The efforts we have made during this period have finally been in vain, and we will soon unveil the mysterious tomb of Chi You."

"Hurry and prepare and determine the entrance to the ancient tomb as soon as possible!"

Professor Sun immediately issued the order, and this discovery soon made the exhausted people full of energy again.

Fortunately, the people Xu Kui brought with him for this operation were all young and strong men, who were just able to act as manual workers at this moment.

Professor Sun and others personally performed some detailed work, but naturally these young men were needed to handle the things that needed to be moved.

After spending a day and with the help of various equipment and tools, we finally cleared the entrance that could accommodate people.

It has to be said that the official operation is indeed much faster than the wild methods of tomb robbers, because the equipment is too complete, and there is even some technological products to assist, plus there are many people, the work efficiency is extremely fast.

It was also at this moment that the secret of Chi You's tomb was officially exposed to everyone.

That night, Professor Sun and others sat around the fire. Although their food was very simple, just some military compressed dry food, this did not affect their joy at all.

Chen Ye was holding a kettle in his hand. Standing in the atmosphere at this moment, the kettle in his hand seemed to have turned into a wine bottle, which made Chen Ye's face filled with a smile:

"I thought it would take a long time, but I didn't expect that we overcame this problem in just a few days."

Zhou Xiaoxiao sat aside and nodded, with a bright smile on his face, which felt very healing:

"These few days must be the most unforgettable days in my life. I feel like I have walked a road I have never walked in my life, and this altitude sickness..."

Speaking of this, Zhou Xiaoxiao took out a portable oxygen bottle and took a deep breath of oxygen before continuing:

"It really tormented me a lot..."

Xu Kui also had a bad look on his face at the moment, smiling and looking like Zhou Xiaoxiao and said:

"It's really not easy for you to be able to participate in such a historic action at such a young age."

Chen Jie sat quietly next to her, and the firelight reflected on her face, which actually added some human smoke to her.

"The rapid progress in this operation would not have been possible without the help of everyone here."

Professor Sun raised the water glass in his hand, looked at the people in front of him and said:

"Tomorrow is the time for us to officially go to the tomb. Lao Gu has been collecting clues about Chi You's tomb these days.

According to the clues we know so far, there should be many mechanisms in Chi You's tomb.

So for us, tomorrow will be the real test. While celebrating today, everyone should also brace themselves for tomorrow's action. "

As soon as he heard Professor Sun mentioning himself, Master Gu immediately laughed:

"Professor Sun, if we find any cultural relics in the ancient tomb, can you share them with me?"

Upon hearing this, Professor Sun immediately put on a serious face, looked at Master Gu and said seriously:

"Lao Gu, your ideological consciousness still needs to be improved.

The reason why we took so much trouble is not for the cultural relics inside, but for the archaeological value behind the cultural relics.

Chi You's tomb is of great significance. Not only Chi You's body, but also related cultural relics may open a door for us that we have never understood before.

It is an honor for you to be a participant in such an important and historic moment. "

Although Professor Sun said this, everyone could see that Master Gu didn't seem to listen. The word regret was written all over his face.

Obviously, in his opinion, things like glory cannot be used as food.

However, in such a gathering where all parties gathered, Mr. Gu dared not say anything. He could only nod aside and act like a transparent person again.

In fact, he didn't know that the real secret of Chi You's tomb was related to genes. This was something that the top officials attached great importance to, and archeology was just scratching the surface.

Although this party did not last long, it did revive everyone's morale.

Everyone is looking forward to the actual burial tomorrow.

At dawn the next day, Professor Sun and others had gathered early at the entrance of the cleared Chi You tomb.

A stone gate that was revealed after extending nearly two meters deep into the ground finally saw the light of day again after thousands of years.

At this moment, Professor Sun and others have changed into clothes that are convenient for movement, and their backpacks also contain professional archaeological equipment such as Luoyang shovels.

In addition to the Luoyang shovel, there are also smaller hand shovels, which are fine tools used for scraping surfaces to prevent damage to the ruins.

Of course, several people's backpacks are well equipped with things like bamboo sticks, brushes, watering cans, and screens.

As professional archaeologists, Professor Sun and others were all excited about what was about to happen next.

In order to ensure that there would be no accidents when going to the tomb, Xu Kui and Chen Ye chose to stay outside with the security team.

Zhou Xiaoxiao was assigned to the archaeological team and went to the tomb with Professor Sun and others as a support staff inside and outside.

Following Professor Sun's order, several people entered the small stone door one after another. What they saw was pitch black and the unique mixed smell of ancient tombs.

The tomb passage leading to the tomb chamber is very narrow, and Professor Sun and others discovered that the tomb passage extends all the way underground.

After walking a certain distance, the expression on Zhou Xiaoxiao's face had become distorted.

The thin oxygen here no longer seems to be the most serious problem, but the strange mixed smell that Zhou Xiaoxiao really can't accept.

But looking at Chen Jie walking behind Zhou Xiaoxiao, she seemed to have been used to it for a long time, without any emotional changes.

When seeing Zhou Xiaoxiao showing such a sad expression, Chen Jie smiled and comforted her:

"Don't worry, you'll get used to it gradually. The first time I followed the archaeological team to the tomb, I felt the same as you."

"Professor Chen, why does this smell so strange?"

Zhou Xiaoxiao asked Chen Jie with some confusion, and Chen Jie quickly gave a professional reply:

"Actually, the tombs in the north basically have no smell. Because the ancient tombs are so old, some even the coffins are mixed with soil, so the smell is just like the smell of loess.

Even in places with high air humidity, there is only a slight earthy smell.

However, the tombs in the south are completely different. Because of the high groundwater level, the tombs have green paste mud, so there is a smell. The deeper you go down, the stronger the smell of wood.

Believe me, the smell of Chi You's tomb is already considered mild. "

Chen Jie's answer made Zhou Xiaoxiao admire him very much. Only then did he realize that the archaeological team members were not that easy to do.

…

At the same time, after Chen Ye watched the archaeological team enter the tomb, he immediately arranged for special police members to closely guard the entrance.

The military is responsible for peripheral security issues, and what he has to do is ensure the internal security of the archaeological team's area of ​​operations.

However, at this moment, Chen Ye's cell phone suddenly rang. He looked at the caller ID with some confusion, and it turned out to be an unfamiliar local number.

After thinking for a long time, Chen Ye couldn't think of anyone who would call him at this time, so he quickly put the call to his ear.

A man's voice soon came from the phone:

"Are you Captain Chen Ye? I am Duan Feng, captain of the First Action Team of the Munan City Police Department.

We have just received a reminder that a Rongyang City registration officer has just entered Munan City.

We have sent police officers to follow up. The chief knows that you are from the Rongyang City Police Station, so he asked me to call and ask, do you know the purpose of this registration officer coming to our Munan City? "

"What? Rongyang City registration officer?"

This sudden news quickly made Chen Ye frown.

At this moment, he couldn't help but think of someone, but he quickly gave up the idea.

How is this possible?

After a moment of silence, because Chen Ye really couldn't get away now and he couldn't care about these things, he just paused for a moment and said immediately:

"I don't know either. You just need to follow your rules."

"Okay, got it."

The other party quickly hung up the phone, but Chen Ye looked at the phone and frowned in confusion.

The person he was thinking of was naturally Su Yun, but from Chen Ye's point of view, Su Yun should still be in his hometown in Fancheng.

This is Munan City. How could Su Yun suddenly come all the way here?

"Captain Chen, we encountered some problems with the deployment on the east side and found wild animals infested. What should we do?"

At this moment, the police officer's voice came, and Chen Ye had to temporarily put this doubt behind him.

He quickly rushed over and made emergency arrangements at the scene.

…

At this time, Professor Sun and the others had been walking along this tomb passage for about 20 minutes.

But except for the faint light that the flashlight can bring, the entire tomb passage is still dark, but everyone can feel that this tomb passage is still extending downward.

But at this moment, Professor Sun, who was walking at the front, suddenly stopped. Zhou Xiaoxiao looked forward with a flashlight curiously, only to realize that they had reached a dead end.

A stone wall blocked everyone's way and sealed the entire tomb passage. Everyone was dumbfounded for a moment.

"What's going on? Did we find it wrong? This is not the entrance to Chi You's tomb at all?"

Professor Cai frowned and walked to the stone wall, inspected the gaps between the stone wall and the wall in detail, and then rejected the idea:

"No, this should be a living wall. Let's quickly find out if there is any mechanism nearby that can open this living wall."

Mechanisms are not uncommon in ancient tombs. After all, all tomb owners do not want their tombs to be visited by others a hundred years later.

Therefore, after hearing what Professor Cai said, Professor Sun and others quickly dispersed and started groping along the wall.

But after searching around, I found that all the walls were relatively smooth, with no trace of any mechanism at all.

But during this period, Professor Sun accidentally looked up and suddenly discovered that there were several lampstands above the tomb passage.

This ancient lampstand was hung on the top of the tomb passage, arranged in an irregular manner. It was probably used for lighting when the ancient tomb was built.

However, the lampstand is located very high, making it difficult for two people to reach it.

After all, this is Chi You's tomb, and according to legend, although Chi You is not very high, it is still three or four meters high.

If this legend is true, we can basically judge from the height of this tomb passage that this should be Chi You's tomb.

After all, this tomb should have been built by people from Chi You's tribe, so it makes sense that people can't reach it now.

However, the sudden stone wall this time broke everyone's plan to continue exploring in depth.

As they stayed in the tomb passage for longer and longer, the oxygen became so thin that it was almost not enough.

Although at this juncture, no one wants to give up.

But the real problem was before him, and Professor Sun had to make a difficult decision.

"It seems that the first attempt to enter can only end in failure. The appearance of this stone wall blocks our way. If there is really no way to enter by cracking the mechanism, we can only mobilize explosives and blow up the stone wall. .”

However, just as Professor Sun finished speaking, Professor Cai's voice came quickly:

"I'm afraid this won't work. I have already analyzed the soil here and roughly estimated the location of Chi You's tomb.

This location is very special. If we conduct explosive blasting at such a depth, the amount of explosives that can blast the stone wall is enough to cause the mountain to collapse to varying degrees.

There have always been many villages around this mountain. In the early years when it was not very regulated, excessive deforestation led to the occurrence of mudslides.

After so many years of hard work, although it has become a nature reserve, the mountains and terrain are still very weak.

We can only find as many clues as possible to crack this mechanism after we get out. Otherwise, there is no other way to enter the tomb. "

Professor Cai's words were like a bucket of cold water that extinguished everyone's hopes.

After a moment of silence, Professor Sun could only sigh helplessly and gave the order that he was unwilling to say:

“Let’s go, let’s return to the ground first.

The oxygen is getting thinner and thinner. If we stay any longer, the remaining oxygen may not be able to support us back to the ground.

As for how to deal with this stone wall, we will discuss it carefully after we go up. "

Although Professor Sun has already thought about it, Chi You's tomb must not be accessible by anyone who wants to.

But to encounter such a problem not long after he went to the tomb, anyone else would feel a little frustrated.

Everyone had no choice but to return the same way and arrived at the ground. Chen Ye and Xu Kui, who had been waiting, ran towards this side.

Looking at the expressions on the faces of the group, Xu Kui frowned, as if he had realized that something unexpected had happened.

"Professor Sun, why are you back so soon?"

Professor Sun did not speak, but the expression on his face said everything.

Chen Jie, who was standing aside, folded her arms and sighed lowly:

"We encountered a stone wall in the tomb passage deep into the tomb, which should be a mechanism set up before, but we couldn't find any clues to crack the mechanism.

The oxygen is running out, so we have to return to the ground first. "

This news made Chen Ye and Xu Kui look at each other and frowned.

It seems that things are not as smooth as they imagined...

Although everyone had returned to the ground, they did not give up the idea of ​​continuing to investigate. They soon sat down not far from the entrance to the tomb and started discussing.

"We have inspected it in detail just now, and there are no traces of grooves or triggerable mechanisms.

So there should be only two possibilities. The first possibility is that the trigger point of this mechanism is somewhere we can't touch. The second possibility is that this mechanism was not triggerable at all at that time.

But I personally prefer the first type. After all, the people who built this tomb also need to enter and exit. "

Professor Cai analyzed the current situation very professionally, and this analysis was quickly recognized by others.

"I think Professor Cai is right, the first possibility should be the most reasonable at present.

Although the tomb passage is very narrow, the height is about 4 meters. Is there any possibility that the trigger mechanism is set up above the head? "

Chen Jie recalled that when she was searching in the tomb passage, she had deliberately observed the memories around her. This point of view she put forward has become the most reasonable explanation at present.

"But even so, we can't carry a ladder in. Everyone has seen how narrow this tomb passage is. Even if we wear slightly thicker clothes, it will be difficult to walk in.

This tomb passage must have been deliberately modified. Both sides are filled with stones, which is completely inconsistent with the volume created by the height. "

Mr. Gu sat aside very depressed, with his head lowered and unable to lift his spirits.

But what he said was very reasonable. The tomb passage was deliberately modified to prevent latecomers from easily entering it.

These problems have been bothering them, and they can't find any solutions for a while.

Even if they can now guess that the secret slot that triggers the mechanism is likely to appear overhead, what can they do?

You can't bring any climbing tools down, and there's no point of strength on the smooth wall.

Not to mention the archaeological team, even well-trained soldiers can't do anything about it.

This problem was placed in front of everyone, making them feel increasingly depressed.

After many discussions, they still didn't come up with any effective solution, which naturally made them more and more anxious.

Even the professional archaeological team found it difficult to draw any valid conclusions. As laymen, Xu Kui and Chen Ye were naturally unable to intervene.

But even so, they naturally couldn't give up such an opportunity. After finally finding Chi Youmu, they couldn't get in just because of a solid wall.

Recalling that there were several forks in the tomb passage in front of the stone wall, but at that time because they were not sure where these forks lead, the archaeological team did not go deep into the forks.

Therefore, they couldn't think of any other way. They could only place their hope on these forks in the road. Maybe there was some other way to the tomb.

After re-equipped with oxygen bottles, the team set out again to go deep into the tomb. However, after entering the tomb, they did not choose to take the previous path leading to the stone wall, but entered a fork in the road.

But after actually walking into this forked road, everyone soon realized something was wrong. These forked roads were winding and winding, and there would be multiple forked roads. If you kept walking along these forked roads, you would probably get lost soon. direction.

Moreover, the materials used to build the tomb seemed to be mixed with something special, causing all the technological instruments to malfunction after entering the tomb.

The archaeological team could not find the correct direction through the compass, so naturally they did not dare to go too deep into the tomb.

Step - step - step -

During this period, Professor Cai seemed to suddenly hear something. He was stunned for a moment, put his ear against the wall for a few seconds, then looked at several people and asked in confusion:

"Did you hear any footsteps?"

Several people were startled when they heard this and hurriedly listened, but found nothing.

"Professor, did you hear that correctly?"

They couldn't help but shook their heads at this. This was an ancient tomb. There was no one around. Where could the footsteps come from?

"Really? Maybe I'm hallucinating. It's too quiet here."

Professor Cai was confused, but everyone just thought that Professor Cai had heard wrong and didn't care much.

After a while, after going around and around, Professor Sun and others finally returned to the main road, but what they saw was still the helpless stone wall.

For a moment, everyone sat exhausted in the narrow tomb passage, and the sound of long beards and short sighs could be heard from time to time.

"What to do now? The soil environment here is very complex, and conventional blasting methods simply won't work here.

Is it possible that we found Chi You's tomb but failed because of this stone wall? "

Master Gu's annoyed voice came. Although his words were a bit low, they were indeed rough and unreasonable.

Professor Sun and Professor Cai still have not given up. They are still looking for all places where trigger mechanisms may be hidden.

Although according to the group's previous guesses, the trigger mechanism is likely to exist at the top of the head, but at this height without the use of any tools, they really have no way to verify this guess.

This is like suddenly announcing the failure of all actions at the last moment. It would be better if the location of Chi You's tomb was not determined from beginning to end.

But now that they had entered Chi You's tomb, their success fell short because of such a mechanism. No one would be able to swallow this sigh of relief.

Professor Sun looked up at the top of his head. As if he suddenly thought of something, he frowned and said:

"Do you think this lampstand is a mechanism?"

Professor Sun's words quickly attracted the attention of the other people.

The location of this lampstand is very abrupt, and it doesn't look like it's just used for lighting.

Chen Jie had doubts about it early on, but because he couldn't put it into practice, he didn't express the idea.

Now that Professor Sun mentioned it, Professor Cai nodded and said:

"This is quite possible. Maybe lighting the lampstand can trigger the mechanism.

Even if the mechanism cannot be triggered, perhaps after the lampstand is lit, there will be traces of the mechanism. "

This discovery undoubtedly gave everyone hope, but this hope did not last long.

"This is just a hypothesis and there is no way to prove it."

The angry voice of Master Gu came, with helplessness written on his face:

“In the end, it’s still a fool’s errand!

At a height of more than four meters, there is no way to use any tools. Unless you stack the Arhat, who can go up there and practice it? "

But just as Master Gu finished his words, a strange voice suddenly came from deep in the quiet and dark tomb passage!

"How about I give it a try?"

This sudden sound made everyone stunned.

"Who is speaking?"

Some people asked in shock, but after looking at each other, they all shook their heads. Suddenly, a chill rose from the soles of their feet to the sky.

You must know that this is an ancient tomb. Suddenly, a strange voice comes, which will naturally make people feel creepy.

Everyone stood up at this moment and focused their flashlights in the direction of the sound almost simultaneously.

It was a fork in the road not far away, but the brightness of the flashlight was limited and not enough to illuminate the entire fork in the road.

Zhou Xiaoxiao looked at the dark tomb passage with some doubts, and the voice he just heard echoed in his mind.

He didn't know why, but he always felt that this voice was familiar, as if he had heard it somewhere before.

Everyone held their breath at this moment. This sudden sound made everyone feel a little uneasy.

Tread-tap-tap!

Finally, the sound of footsteps gradually came from far to near. It was originally weak and inaudible, but gradually became heavier and closer. It was a bit scary in the empty cemetery.

Professor Cai was holding a Luoyang shovel in his hand at this time, which seemed to have become the weapon he relied on.

Chen Jie, a mature and dignified woman, also took out the self-defense knife she carried around her waist and stared at the tomb passage with a nervous expression.

Professor Sun tried hard to control his breathing, but even so, his chest still rose and fell violently.

Zhou Xiaoxiao simply took out his pistol and put his finger on the trigger, as if he was ready.

This is an ancient tomb from thousands of years ago. How could someone be active in the tomb?

Could it be that what is described in the ancient books and legends is true, but how is this possible?

Or a tomb robber? But how could they find it?

At this time, several people had different guesses about the sudden sound.

They clung to the wall of the tomb passage, staring at the dark tomb passage.

The unhurried footsteps sounded like the god of death was coming, making everyone nervous.

Finally, the footsteps got closer and closer, and then, a figure stepped into the range that the flashlight could illuminate, and an outline could already be seen.

The figure was dressed simply, but he was carrying a backpack with a zipper that was not fully zipped, and a long strip protruding from it. There was a shaggy animal squatting on his shoulders...
