The light of the cold flame was very dim, but as time passed, the light gradually became very bright.
He could vaguely see that it was actually a wide tomb.
Fortunately, there were no traps below as Shirley Yang was worried about.
Everyone's faces were filled with joy. They had finally found the main tomb.
Then, everyone went down.
Fortunately, this place was not very high. They did not go down in a hurry, and there was no danger.
When everyone entered the tomb, they first had to walk down the stairs.
The steps were neatly carved, and the distance between each step was the same.
On the stairs, the wall was red and there were many murals on it.
They were all people wearing special clothes. Clearly, they were some of the fashionable clothes worn by this society at that time.
Professor Chen's students were all very excited because this would be very helpful in studying history!
"Look at the tomb. It's strange…"
Professor Chen was also very excited. He looked around and said excitedly,
"This seems to be a lost ancient tomb of the Western Regions. This is the burial form of the ancient Western Regions.”
As they continued forward, a huge coffin came into view.
"Square, this is really strange.”
Hu Bayi looked at the coffin in shock and frowned.
"Let's see what's around first so that we can determine the identity of the tomb's owner," said Xue Li Yang.”
Everyone nodded. For the time being, they did not plan to touch the coffin first. Instead, they sized up the exquisite murals on the entire tomb.
"This mural is simply too spectacular.”
Professor Chen looked at the murals on the wall and sighed.
Everyone took their flashlights and shone them on the murals on the wall, starting to study them.
"Look at the murals on this wall. What's recorded in this painting is…it's related to the Ancient City of Jingjue!”
Professor Chen said in shock.
Each of them kept staring at the murals and sizing them up.
"This should be Prince Gumo's tomb. This should be the first painting.”
They came to a mural and examined it.
"Gumo was a small country among the thirty-six kingdoms of the ancient Western Regions. It was also a vassal kingdom of Jingjue. They were bullied and had to offer a large amount of treasures, cattle, sheep, and slaves to the queen of Jingjue every year.”
"The painter of these murals is very skilled. They are gorgeous and lifelike. Even without any text annotations, the contents of the murals are clear and vivid. We can clearly understand the events and people in the murals through the murals.”
"This is Prince Gumo. He wants to see Queen Jingjue and wants to reduce taxes for his subjects. Queen Jingjue refused to see him. Prince Gumo is the incarnation of the Sun War God. Prince Gumo sneaked into Jingjue Ancient City and wanted to assassinate Queen Jingjue. In the end, he discovered a shocking secret.”
"What secret?"
Fatty Wang tilted his head and asked.
Everyone present was waiting for Professor Chen to continue, wanting to see what he had to say next.
However, Professor Chen shook his head and said,
"This painting is really too strange. Prince Gumo is peeping from a corner. In the previous paintings, Queen Jingjue was covered with a veil, but in this painting, Queen Jingjue was only a side profile. She lifted her veil with one hand and there was a person opposite her, like a slave.”
" Later, this person became blurry and disappeared…"
Professor Chen looked at the painting in confusion. The atmosphere suddenly became a little strange, and everyone was a little shocked.
Shirley Yang stared at the painting and said,""This Queen of Extinction…is a demoness.”
"Banshee?"
Everyone shouted this word in shock.
"Interesting," said Professor Chen."Tell me what you think.”
Shirley Yang explained," This mural is the most difficult to understand among all the murals. The queen in the mural has lifted the veil in front of her face, and the person opposite her has become a dotted line. She might be a slave, or someone like this.”
"In any case, it should be an enemy that the Queen wants to get rid of.”
"Miss Yang, do you mean that the woman in the painting disappeared because she saw the Queen's face?"”
"Yes, sir!" Xue Li Yang said with certainty.
"So you're sure that this queen is a banshee?" Hu Bayi was slightly stunned.”
"I think the person in the painting just glanced at the person opposite him and that person disappeared," said Shirley Yang.”
"A living person disappeared just because he looked at someone else. Isn't that a little too…" Ding Sitian couldn't help but ask.
"I also find it unbelievable.”
Fatty echoed.
It seemed to be to help Ding Sitian out of her predicament.
They were right.
After all, anyone who heard such a deduction would feel that it was a little too terrifying.
Xue Li Yang said indifferently,"This is just a guess, but it's not groundless.”
"My father liked to read a book called The Records of the Western Regions of the Great Tang. It was written by Xuanzang, an eminent monk of the Tang Dynasty. I've read it several times, and it records many legends about the ancient Western Regions.”
"One of them is about the legend of the Desert Queen. I have a deep impression of it.”
"Sister Yang, tell us about it quickly.”
Ding Sitian said excitedly. She loved hearing about these things the most.
"Yeah, tell me about it."
Fatty said.
Xue Li Yang nodded and began to explain.
