"This should be the entrance to the underground palace. Behind it is the underground palace. To be able to use this as a door, the Eastern Xia Emperor must have stolen a lot of things from the Northern Song Dynasty.”
When Fatty heard this, his initial frustration from not being able to take the jade door away became excited again.
"Then what are we waiting for?"
"Wait a minute." The skinny old man stopped Fatty. He carefully looked at the door and said,
"There's a layer of ice on this door. The temperature behind it must be extremely low, and the ice layer must be even thicker. This jade door has already been frozen to the point where it's brittle.”
This little old man was probably also a lover of ancient artifacts. He could not bear to see this thing destroyed just like that.
Hearing this, everyone was in a difficult position.
At this moment, Ling Feng had slithered to the front of the jade door.
His Heaven and Earth Pupil indeed saw a thick layer of ice inside the door, and the temperature inside was quite low.
Therefore, he chose to open his mouth and put the jade door into the River Drinking Space.
Everyone saw Ling Feng open his mouth to the jade door. Then, the frozen jade door in front of them slowly shrank and flew into his mouth.
“……”
"This…Grandpa Snake even eats this? Aren't you afraid of diarrhea?" Fatty said.
Ling Feng glanced at him coldly and went straight into the corridor.
The temperature inside was indeed much lower than outside, at least ten degrees. It was as if they had suddenly entered an ice house.
Ah Ning was still alright. After many times of " evolutionary feedback," his physical fitness had become much stronger. He was completely unfazed by this degree of low temperature.
Fatty was obviously very fat and was shivering when he came in. On the other hand, the skinny old man quickly adapted.
At this moment, he was observing the murals on the wall.
The murals on both sides of the tunnel were also covered with a layer of ice about one centimeter thick. However, the ice was very transparent, so it did not affect the observation of the murals.
Fortunately, this layer of ice had formed a different kind of " vacuum layer " to protect the mural. Otherwise, the mural would have turned into ashes in a few seconds as soon as they entered.
The contents of the murals were also hair-raising.
There was only one main body on the two walls-a hundred-legged coiling dragon.
All the murals were filled with hundred-legged dragons coiling in the clouds. Some were coiling, some were flying, some were fighting…They were all over the walls. At first glance, one would think that the walls were crawling with centipedes.
There were also murals of humans kowtowing to a hundred-legged dragon. The human figures in the murals were very small, while the hundred-legged dragon was depicted as huge and ferocious.
There were also murals of two hundred-legged dragons entangled together. It was unknown whether they were having sex or fighting.
In the team, Ah Ning's men were taking pictures of the murals.
On one hand, this kind of mural was very valuable for research.
On the other hand, Dong Xia Country was actually an uncertain regime. There had never been a clear record of its existence.
Usually, if the funerary objects of this civilization could not produce strong evidence to prove that this "Dong Xia Country" really existed, then the value of the funerary objects would be greatly reduced.
"Strange, what is this place?”Fatty asked,"
"Why are there all these murals? Did the Emperor of East Xia, King Wan Nu, like bugs that much?”
No one in the team could tell him.
Whether it was Wu Tianzhen or the little old man, they were all frowning.
The group walked forward while looking at the murals in this heavy atmosphere.
After about a hundred meters, the corridor came to an end, and the mural stopped there.
An exit appeared in front of them. There was no door at the exit. On both sides of the exit were bronze crane foot lampstands. They were nearly as tall as a person and were covered in a thin layer of ice. The candles in the lampstands were not burning either.
Ling Feng took the lead and walked out of the corridor, lighting up the tomb with a candle in his mouth.
The tomb was very empty, without a single burial item.
This tomb was about forty square meters in size, and the walls of the tomb were also painted with the same "Hundred-Legged Coiled Dragon" as the previous mural.
The temperature here was slightly higher than in the tunnel just now. The ice on the walls was thinner, and some parts had already faded.
There were three stone beds in the middle of the tomb, which were used to store the coffin.
It seemed that King Wan Nu wasn't buried alone. There were two other people buried with him.
There was a huge black stone slab in the open space behind the three stone beds. There were two huge strange birds carved on the stone slab. They looked like the Ghost Face Owl that the team had encountered before.
This should be the last tomb sealing stone.
"This dog emperor is really stingy. He's willing to build a house for others, but he can't bear to put in two more pieces of furniture. How can he live like this? He's really taking all the benefits.”
Fatty spoke.
He thought that this should be the tomb of the buried person. There was nothing here.
He was here to loot the funerary objects. Up until now, he had been in a lot of danger, but he was still unwilling to accept that he had only obtained one lampstand.
"I'm afraid it's not that simple." The little old man at the side said,
"I've looked carefully at the murals here. Something's not right.”
He explained to everyone,
"If this is the tomb of the buried person, the identity of the buried person will determine the contents of the mural.”
"If it's a family member, then the murals should be mainly about daily life.”
"If it's a civil servant, then it's probably the scene of the court or a relatively famous achievement.”
"If it's a general, then it's probably a battlefield scene.”
"Even if this strange dragon is the main body, there should be a leader…"
Fatty was the first to retort,"
" Old man, don't get entangled in these things. In my opinion, although the Emperor of Dong Xia is said to be an emperor, he is actually a nouveau riche in a remote area."
"This guy doesn't follow the funeral rites of our Central Plains Dynasty at all. He's a country bumpkin.”
"As the saying goes,'exotic customs, sway supreme'. Perhaps Slave King has never even heard of what you're talking about. Look at how vigorously the worms are twisting on the murals.”
"Our main task now should be to find that old thing and reward the great working people.”
The more Fatty spoke, the more ridiculous it became, but some of his words actually made sense.
For a small regime like this, they probably wouldn't be so particular about the details of the tomb.
Wu Tianzhen walked to the last black stone.
At this moment, the only possible answer was under this rock.
Ling Feng also used the Heaven and Earth Pupil to take a look. The bottom was probably empty, but he couldn't see anything further down.
After confirming that there were no traps near the tomb seal stone, the mercenaries and Fatty Wu Tianzhen worked together to lift the huge stone that weighed hundreds of kilograms.
Someone threw a torch down to make sure there was no problem with the oxygen before jumping down with a gas mask.
Ling Feng was the second one to dive in, and everyone else followed suit.
Pan Zi stayed behind and habitually set up a few hidden traps with his hand grenades before following them.
The space below wasn't too big. It was a little crowded for everyone to stand, but no one took a step forward.
This was because there was a high chance that the main tomb passage of the Eastern Xia Emperor's tomb was right in front of them.
It was also the legendary place with the most traps and the highest death rate.
