Shen Yan also gradually fell asleep under this confusion.
The night passed peacefully. On the second day, everyone built a ropeway at the entrance of the pit they had dug. They quickly walked down the ropeway.
Originally, An Li didn't dare to go down. He said that this underground was the point to connect to the underworld and that it was unlucky.
However, Shen Yan and the others did not dare to let him go up there alone. What if he escaped with their luggage?
Under the threat, An Liman could only get down from the ground with a bitter face.
The few of them walked in the opposite direction of the escape route and soon arrived in front of a stone door.
There was also a piece of animal skin pasted on the stone door.
"In ancient times, people would stick freshly peeled animal skin on the stone door to isolate the air. But it's strange. If this is just an escape route, there's no need to do this at all. Was this really a tunnel leading to the tomb?”
Lord Dog Five's face was filled with confusion.
Unfortunately, there was no one here who could explain the doubts in his heart.
At this moment, the staff slave and the listening slave immediately walked out and peeled off the animal skin on the stone door. Then, the two of them quickly put on their gas masks and pushed the stone door open. They took the lead and walked in.
Shen Yang and the others followed closely behind. Of course, they all wore gas masks.
This ancient tomb had been underground for so many years. No one could guarantee that there would not be any poisonous gas inside.
This was a very large stone room. After Shen Yan and the others entered the stone room, they immediately took out their flashlights and looked around carefully.
The moment they entered their eyes, they saw several blackened corpses. These corpses looked like little ghosts that had crawled out of the ground and made ferocious expressions on the ground.
"Ah!"
After seeing this scene, the two girls hadn't even called out, but An Liman was so scared that he trembled.
After all, he was just an ordinary person. How could he have experienced such a thing? The moment he saw these corpses, his entire body almost went limp on the ground.
"Don't be so shocked. Otherwise, believe it or not, I'll leave you here.”Lord Dog Five stared at An Liman speechlessly.
Speaking of which, it was strange. After being scared by Lord Dog Five, An Liman seemed to have gained courage and quickly stood up.
On the walls of the chamber, there were rows of candlesticks. At this critical moment, all the candlesticks started to burn with white flames. Under the contrast of the white flames, the entire chamber looked ghastly.
"This…this is ghost fire?" An Liman couldn't help but exclaim.
Shen Yan was speechless. At this moment, he immediately explained," Don't worry, everyone. This isn't a ghost fire. It's a common method used by the ancients to scare people. It's called white phosphorus. When white phosphorus comes into contact with the air, it will easily combust.”
The candlestick's light came so suddenly that it gave everyone a fright. However, with the light, it was a little more convenient for everyone at this time.
There were several stone pillars in the stone room, and on these stone pillars were corpses with ferocious faces and extremely miserable deaths.
No matter what, Yin Xinyue was a girl, and it was her first time entering the tomb. After seeing this scene, she finally could not help but scream and hide in Shen Yan's arms.
Feeling Yin Xinyue trembling in his arms, Shen Yan immediately comforted her." Don't be afraid. It'll be fine with me. If I'm not wrong, this should be a kind of sacrifice in ancient times. The slaves who made mistakes were tied to shelves and killed alive. Then, they were splashed with animal blood and made into dried corpses. If I'm not wrong, this should be a place for sacrifice.”
To be honest, even Lord Dog Five had a whole new level of respect for Shen Yan at this moment. There were some things that even he had just figured out, but Shen Yan had spoken up before him.
Shen Yan gave him the feeling that he was a grave robber.
"I didn't expect Brother Shen to be so knowledgeable.”Lord Dog Five looked at Shen Yan meaningfully.
Shen Yan was stunned. He naturally understood that Lord Dog Five was suspicious of him.
"Hehe, I usually like to read some random books. In the past, I've read some of the notes of some local masters and there were similar notes on them.”
Lord Dog Five did not say anything else, but when he looked at Shen Yan, the curiosity in his eyes did not subside.
Fairy Huo couldn't help but mutter.
"Are you sure this is an ancient tomb? Why was there nothing here other than corpses and bones?”Fairy Huo's expression was filled with disappointment.
"Slave Ting, Slave Rod, you guys go around and see if you can find any clues or secret passages.”Yin Xinyue was obviously unwilling, so she immediately instructed.
