Chapter 816 Burglary?still...
There are other murals on the side, such as war.
In this painting, the identity of the tomb owner seems a bit special.
Because, the woman who was dancing just now is wearing leather armor and rushing to the forefront of the war.
He is actually a general, and he is the leader of the army.
Lin Ran looked a little dull, and he began to search for the right person in his mind.
Judging from the murals, their enemies wore costumes that looked very much like Mongolian cavalry.
This surprised Lin Ran. The Mongolian cavalry traveled all over the Central Plains and even went as far as Western Europe!
Who is this queen?Was there a queen in the Ming Dynasty?How dare you resist Genghis Khan's army?
Of course, this mural ended here, and Lin Ran was still not satisfied with what he saw.
He was full of curiosity about the identity of the tomb owner. This was definitely a strange woman!
Others also saw this mural. Most of the murals seen before would record a person's life.
As for this queen, she only left two murals.
Lin Ran looked back at the gold wall and said, "Maybe the mural is behind the gold, and the craftsman may not want others to see her appearance."
"Really?" Liu Jingfeng and others originally wanted to take away the gold, but now they have more reasons.
"But let's wait for the archaeological work for a while. There is still a lot of road ahead waiting for us." Lin Ran took a deep breath and decided to dig out the secret of the tomb owner.
The end of the mural is the end of the corridor.
A giant stone door appeared in front of everyone.
Another stone tablet stood in front of the stone gate, but it turned out to be a tablet without words.
After experiencing too many dangers, they subconsciously took a step back when they saw the stone tablet, for fear of encountering danger.
Lin Ran smiled and walked straight to the door.
The wordless monument corresponds to this queen, whose life may not be summarized in one or two sentences.
He is not only a hero who leads his people to fight against the invaders, but he is also the leader of a certain religion. Burning people alive does not seem to be very popular.
Unable to judge whether she was good or bad, she ended up leaving a wordless monument.
The only inscription that would really leave a trap would be one with misleading words.
The stone gate blocked the way, but there was a hole not far from the stone gate.
The moment they saw the hole, several people's hearts went cold.
"Cave Robbery?!"
However, there are no traces of anyone entering the entire tomb, and there is no movement at all on the gold at the door. Could the tomb robbers have let go of the gold in the tomb passage?
They had two guesses in their minds, either Miyamoto had beaten them to it and arrived here.
But it's impossible, because the stone gate that turned off just now has no trace of being beaten.
Either there were tomb robbers who visited here a long time ago. They only dug holes but never came back.
The more I thought about it, the more terrifying and abnormal it became.
Lin Ran held a flashlight and carefully leaned into the cave.
Wang Jinpeng raised his gun. If Miyamoto and the others were up to something, he would definitely not mind killing them in the tomb.
Lin Ran checked the robbery hole and found it strange.
This hole does not look like it was dug manually, and the walls are extremely smooth. If you touch it with your hand, it still feels like mucus.
"Baoji?" Lin Ran touched the object and had a nasty imagination.
Is there swelling at the entrance of this hole?
After putting it to the tip of his nose and smelling it, he smiled with relief.
"This is not a robbery hole. If I guess correctly, it should be the hole made by the snake we saw earlier."
They thought of the big snake they saw earlier. It was indeed very big, but Lao Hei immediately denied it: "I don't think so."
It turns out that before Lao Hei became a tomb robber, his family was catching snakes in the village.
He is very familiar with the living habits of snakes. Snakes can indeed drill holes, but they do not have the ability to dig holes at all. They can only occupy holes and dominate them.
Not to mention the thickness of the stone wall, only a pangolin could dig such a large hole.
But pangolins have an extremely short lifespan and cannot grow to such a large size.
He felt there must be something wrong.
After listening to Lao Hei's explanation, Lin Ran felt it made sense.
He wanted to find a stone and throw it into the thief's cave to explore the truth.
Because the air in the corridor is thin, it is not suitable for lighting fires. Otherwise, throwing a torch down is the best choice.
After searching for a long time, I didn't find any stones.
In desperation, Lin Ran took out his kettle and threw it into the hole.
There was a boom.
It sounded like there was a bottom, but Lin Ran didn't dare to go down rashly.
Forget it, let’s study this stone door first.
Lin Ran drew his attention back to the front. Fortunately, Lao Hei reminded him, otherwise he would have thought it was a snake hole and entered the tomb through the hole.
The tomb door in front of you is made of marble and is extremely thick, weighing at least five tons.
In such a narrow corridor, it is extremely difficult to push the stone door closed.
So Lin Ran guessed that this stone door must be controlled by some kind of mechanism like the door outside.
He told everyone about this guess and brainstormed ideas.
"Will the mechanism be on the mural just now?" Lao Hei said.
They came to the mural together to look for it. In addition to the mural, they also tried stepping on the floor and touching the wall, but found nothing.
"If it doesn't work, let's just open the door." Wang Jinpeng said and took out his shovel.
But it made Liu Jingfeng and Lao Hei laugh: "Jin Peng, marble is not so easy to break."
When facing this kind of stone gate, the most common method used by Northern Tufuzi is explosives, which shows its solidity.
If they simply rely on their human power to open it bit by bit, I am afraid that even if they break their hands, there will be no result.
"What should we do?" Wang Jinpeng touched his head, then looked at the thief's cave and said, "How about I go down and have a look?"
He is bolder than ordinary people and has better physical strength, so he dares to try.
At this time, Lin Ran was squatting in front of the wordless monument, thinking about something.
"I think we can give it a try." Lin Ran sighed.
Because he just thought of something, the mechanism might be opened from behind the mausoleum.
And this robbery hole should actually be designed by the craftsmen preparing to escape.
He could understand this design, but he couldn't figure out how even the craftsmen of the Yuan Dynasty could carve the wall so smoothly?
Moreover, he compared it and found that the cross-section of the big snake at the entrance should not be that big.
"However, you must pay attention to safety if you want to go down." Lin Ran said, this was also a helpless move.
"It's okay." Wang Jinpeng raised the gun proudly, "If there is a monster inside, let me kill him with one shot."
With that said, he prepared to climb down into the thief's cave.
Liu Jingfeng reminded: "Don't point that thing down, be careful."
Others laughed when they heard the sound. In this environment, Huang Hao was not around, and Liu Jingfeng had to find a way to relieve everyone's tension.
"Boss, you have such a bad mouth!" Wang Jinpeng muttered.
But he glanced at the gun, adjusted its direction, and slowly got into the hole.
