Chapter 440 The earth dragon turns over?avalanche!
The calligraphy and paintings in the tomb have been corroded and the colors are messed up. As a calligraphy and painting dealer, Liu Jingfeng does not advocate taking the paintings out and occupying the space for no reason.
"Aren't those no longer needed?" Liu Jingfeng didn't understand what Lin Ran meant.
"As long as some outlines can be seen, the museum has ways to restore it." Lin Ran replied.
Current museum funds may be insufficient, but there are also some professional cultural relic restorers who will use their own methods to restore damaged cultural relics to their original appearance as much as possible.
Moreover, Lin Ran also had such a person under his command.
I believe Li Yuanhao can see the original appearance of some paintings where the damage is not particularly serious.
"That's fine." Liu Jingfeng nodded, squatted down and made a mark on the ground, "Let's leave first."
Just as they were preparing to leave, they suddenly felt violent shaking from the tomb!
"No, is it an earth dragon turning over?" Liu Jingfeng looked at the soil falling from the sky, coupled with the frequency of vibration, he felt uneasy in his heart.
"We have to leave quickly." If they are buried here, they will become the burial objects of another generation.
Could it be that the archaeological team concealed the truth because they encountered the Earth Dragon?
This is a bit of a black humor style, attributing natural disasters to curses.
Fortunately, everything had been put away. They immediately made a decision, threw away all the tools, carried snakeskin bags with cultural relics on their backs, and ran towards the top floor.
The vibrations were intermittent, and all the previous balance stairs had fallen down, hitting the bottom of the cliff with a crackling sound.
Earth keeps falling in the mausoleum, but the structure is still stable.
They finally ran out of the tomb unharmed.
Fortunately, this is a king-level mausoleum. If it had been an ordinary noble tomb, it would have collapsed by now.
I don't know if their luck was good or bad, but as soon as they walked out of the mausoleum gate, they saw a lot of snow near the holy tower.
There was an avalanche.
If they hadn't been in the mausoleum, they would have been washed down the mountain.
Wait... avalanche?
Lin Ran hurried to the edge to check the situation in the village down the mountain.
The whole village is covered in snow!
"Oops! Are Tenzin Ouzhu okay?" He came to the village to help Lin Ran, but he didn't expect to encounter a natural disaster.
Based on the level of local superstition, they might think that the avalanche was caused because they offended the mountain god by entering the holy tower.
I couldn't explain it for a while.
Lin Ran said to Liu Jingfeng: "I have to go down the mountain first to find my friend."
"Go." Liu Jingfeng saw that Lin Ran was worried about the lama, and nodded with a smile.
They wanted to take cultural relics down the mountain, but now there was snow everywhere on the mountain and the road was obviously slippery, so they had to slow down.
Lin Ran picked up a broken branch from the ground, used it as a crutch, and walked down the mountain as fast as possible.
The most dangerous thing when living under the mountains is mudslides, and avalanches at the foot of snow-capped mountains are even more exaggerated.
Lin Ran didn't bring a watch, and he didn't know how many days had passed since they entered the mausoleum.
In half an hour, he arrived at the foot of the mountain.
The wooden house that was originally at the entrance of the Holy Mountain has been blown apart by the snow.
When he came to the flat ground, he could speed up his pace and run towards the village chief's house.
But he stopped before he took a few steps, because the envoy who protected the mountain from before was looking at him expressionlessly not far away.
"Wait, please listen to my explanation." Lin Ran wanted to explain that avalanches are a natural geographical phenomenon and have nothing to do with their entry into the tower.
The envoy who protected the mountain did not understand the language with him, but he did not make an attack. Instead, he clasped his hands together in front of his chest in a gesture of invitation.
Obviously trying to lead him the way.
Lin Ran glanced behind him. They were probably still sorting out the cultural relics. Lin Ran decided to go back to the village with the mountain protector first.
The village has been completely buried in the snow. The tents where they lived and even the wooden house of the village chief's house were buried in the thick white snow.
The village that was still normal before now looks extremely dilapidated.
Living under the snow-capped mountains, you will inevitably encounter this kind of situation, so it will be turned into a no-man's land unsuitable for human life.
Following the mountain guarding envoy towards the entrance of the village, he saw the village chief and Tenzin Ouzhu.
The two of them smiled when they saw that Lin Ran was safe and sound.
"Donor Lin, it's great that you came out alive." Tenzin Ouzhu then recited the six-character mantra, looking full of joy.
The village chief was also relieved.
Lin Ran was confused, and Lin Ran quickly explained: "Village chief, the avalanche is caused by too much snow on the top of the mountain, and the ground dragon turning over is caused by the movement of the earth's crust. When the two come together, this phenomenon will occur. Let's talk about it. It doesn’t matter much in the tower.”
The village chief quickly waved his hand and said: "It's okay, Mr. Lin. In fact, when the Living Buddha prayed for us half a month ago, he predicted that this disaster would happen, and our village happened to be transferred."
Only some villagers were left nearby and were reluctant to leave. After witnessing the avalanche burying the village, even the most stubborn villagers had no idea of staying.
"Half a month ago?" Lin Ran was shocked that they had stayed in the tower for so long!
"Yes, we thought that Benefactor Lin and others were staying in the Holy Tower and could not leave." Tenzin Ouzhu said with a smile, "It seems that you have received the revelation, so it's time for me to leave."
Tenzin Ouzhu smiled mysteriously. He had stayed in the capital for a long time. He naturally knew that it would take some time to come out of the mausoleum, sort out the cultural relics, and sell them off.
After the village was relocated, trucks could also enter here without hindrance.
The village chief also said: "It's good to see you're okay. Mr. Lin, I want to ask, what exactly is going on in the Holy Tower in public?"
"It has your history." Lin Ran said, "I saw a statue of a Tuyuhun general inside, who looks very similar to you."
Hearing this, the village chief was a little surprised.
Then he laughed out loud: "As you mentioned it, I seemed to have heard the legend of Tuyuhun when I was a child, but it has been lost to my generation."
"The entrance to the Holy Tower has been opened. There were originally many tomb-guarding beasts, but the avalanche just now scared them all away. I believe they won't survive outside for long."
Lin Ran looked towards the direction of the holy tower. The legend of the nine-story demon tower was indeed well-deserved!
It's just that the geographical location and opening time are 20 years earlier than in the previous life.
Tell the village chief the story of the Holy Tower, and tell him that there is no mystery in it, but a lost kingdom.
The kingdom was destroyed, and their tribe was the last descendants of that kingdom.
The village has decided to relocate, but if they have time, they can go back to the tower to worship their ancestors.
Tenzin Ouzhu laughed: "Donor Lin, you may not understand the view of life and death in Tibet. We do not advocate worshiping the dead. The people in the tower have already gone to another world, so don't disturb them anymore." It’s good.”
