"Did you hear any movement in the ancient tomb?”
"It sounds like human footsteps."
At this point, Ding Jie grabbed the prepared talisman paper in her hand. As long as there was a slight movement, she would throw the talisman paper out.
Then, he poured a mixture of black dog blood, cinnabar, glutinous rice, and other liquids on it.
This Evil Repelling Liquid was Ding Jie's grandfather's unique skill. It had a very strong restraining effect on pestering little ghosts and some 'dirty things'.
"There seems to be a sound from inside the door." Fatty Wang's voice was trembling.
He was the kind of person who was not afraid of anything, but now, it was inevitable that he would feel some fear.
One could imagine how terrifying the atmosphere was.
"There will be some traps in an ancient tomb like this. Everyone, don't worry. I think we might have triggered some traps when we came in.”
" We just need to be careful when we go in," Hao Aiguo said professionally." It won't be a big problem."”
"I think there must be an ancient tomb of a noble behind the door. Look at the murals around you. Don't they look like the Ghost Cave Clan's language that we saw in the nine-story demon tower of the Kunlun Mountains?”
In front of the archaeologist, he was like a madman. He was very enthusiastic and wanted to go in immediately.
His words caught Professor Chen's attention.
Professor Chen used a flashlight to illuminate the area above the door. As expected, there were some sparse carvings and patterns on the top of the door. From the content of the patterns, it looked like the king of the capital was about to ascend the throne.
"The West Night Ancient City should be an affiliated kingdom of the Ancient Jingjue Kingdom. It's not too far away from the Ancient Elf City. Since we can find this place, it means that the Ancient Jingjue City is not too far away.”
"I think this tomb should be the tomb of the West Night Ancient City's royal family.”
Professor Chen was very good at deciphering patterns. It didn't take long for him to decipher the contents of the patterns.
"Teacher, let's go in now.”Hao Aiguo said impatiently.
"Dear experts, let me say this first. Just now, you should have clearly heard the sound of footsteps coming from the tomb. Perhaps there is something in the tomb that cannot be explained by science, so my suggestion is not to enter.”
No one could be sure what was inside. If there was really a human skin Gravekeeper Beast, it would definitely be in danger.
Therefore, it was better to inform these people first.
" Comrade Ding, please don't be superstitious. I've excavated dozens of tombs, not a hundred. I've never seen anything in a tomb that can't be explained by science.”
"I'm sure that the sound coming from behind the door is the sound of a mechanism.”
Hao Aiguo said firmly.
"Alright then. Since you insist on going in, you can take the lead.”
Ding Jie said indifferently.
"I'll take the lead, I'll take the lead.”
He really didn't know how Hao Aiguo's brain worked. In front of the ancient tomb, he was even more active than a gold-looting officer.
The rest of the expedition team had the same attitude as Hao Aiguo. They said that it would be a pity if they didn't go in and take a look since they were already here.
Therefore, under everyone's unanimous suggestion, they could only advance courageously.
The expedition team carefully removed the animal skin from the stone door and wrapped it with oilcloth to prevent the animal skin from being damaged after thousands of years.
With Fatty Wang and Hu Bayi working together, the thick stone door was pushed open very quickly.
An indescribable moldy smell came from inside.
In front of them was a dark area. Even the weak light of the flashlight could not illuminate all the areas clearly.
Hao Aiguo was the most reckless one. He was the first to rush in, as if he had seen a treasure and wanted to take it for himself.
Bang bang bang!
In an instant, some unknown mechanism was triggered in the tomb ahead. All the lights turned cold, and a special smell was extremely pungent.
At this point, all the internal structures of the tomb were revealed to everyone.
There were countless stone pillars erected in the tomb. Above them, there were more than ten oil lamps that emitted a faint green glow.
The oil lamp was self-igniting like a ghost fire.
"Everyone, don't panic. There is white phosphorous in the oil lamp. You all know that the ignition point of white phosphorous is very low. As long as it comes into contact with air, it will burn.”
Professor Chen explained.
Perhaps he felt that the atmosphere was a little scary, so he explained himself.
However, the explanation of his birth did not reduce everyone's fear.
This was because there were dried corpses tied up by iron chains on the stone pillars, and on the altar not far away, there were more than ten human skins floating neatly.
Bloody and brutal, it made people feel an inexplicable fear.
"Why do I feel that the smell of this fuel is a little special?”
Xue Li Yang said with a slight frown.
"It's human oil. Rumor had it that human oil had the effect of nourishing ghosts and could also attract ghosts. The raw material burning in the lamp should be human oil.”
Human oil was a raw material refined by humans. The methods used were extremely cruel. It could be said to be a product of the feudal era.
Ding Jie's grandfather had once told him about the human oil.
He had never encountered one before, but he didn't want to meet one today.
