Chapter 432 Level 2!Demon statue!
Unlike the previous floors, the space on the eighth floor is very wide, but there is no staircase to the next floor.
"Watch your step." Zhenbao saw Wang Jinpeng going forward and immediately stopped him.
As the mechanic in the team, Wang Jinpeng's stepped foot stopped in the air.
"What's wrong? Master Treasure?"
"Look around here." Zhenbao shined a flashlight on the surrounding walls. The walls were completely different from the previous smooth walls.
It was covered with huge bumps.
If you look closely, it looks a bit like scales on armor!
Zhenbao repeatedly made sure there were no traps on the ground, because the walls were usually designed to launch hidden weapons.
There is also a huge relief on top of the scales.
This is a real soldier relief, exactly the same as the tower relief seen on the fifth floor.
The soldiers above all have huge, bulging eyes, wear armor, and hold various weapons.
If you look closely at the other soldier statues on this floor, you will see that they are much taller and more brave than the statues of slaves and slave owners that we saw before.
Obviously, this represents the second level in the tower!
military force!
Not to mention the huge relief sculpture on the far wall. It is ten meters tall. The statue vividly depicts its power. The perfect muscle lines and the tension of the chain can all be seen clearly through the statue.
But when I shine it, I always feel a little strange.
After some investigation of the treasure, he said: "It's strange. There are scale walls all around, but no mechanism can be found. Is it just a decoration?"
"Could you have missed it?" A Ming asked cautiously.
Zhenbao knocked a screw on him and said, "Young man, don't be too big or too small. This is a machine technique passed down from my ancestors. What mechanism have you never seen before?"
"But you seemed to be too scared just now..." A Ming muttered softly.
The others ignored him and moved forward cautiously.
The statues here are all made of stone. The soldiers have different looks and weapons. They look straight ahead and are very intimidating.
"Strange." While Lin Ran and others were looking at the stone carvings, Huang Hao had already circled around the opposite side of the room and said, "There is no road to the next floor here, and there is no door. What's going on?"
"Is this the bottom level?" Liu Jingfeng thought while holding his chin.
"Impossible. If it is a mausoleum, how come there are no burial chambers?" Lin Ran flatly denied it.
"Could it be there?" Liu Jingfeng pointed to the demon statue in the distance.
Ten meters tall and at least five meters wide.
They had also seen the coffin of the tomb owner placed behind the relief.
Lin Ran had never heard of it.
The scenes on this level are comparable to those of the Terracotta Warriors and Horses.
"With so many soldiers, they can have a good fight with Qin Shihuang underground." Wang Jinpeng joked.
After such a long journey, he was a little tired, so he sat down under a stone sculpture, took off his shoes and rubbed his feet.
Seeing that everything was fine, the others also sat down, took out food from their backpacks, and ate it.
Lin Ran didn't have much appetite, so he took a flashlight and walked again along the route Huang Hao had just seen.
The scales on the wall are made of copper sheets and are very strong. Apart from the sharp surface, they can actually support a person stepping on them.
Step on it?
Lin Ran suddenly raised his head and looked at the relief above.
Is it like what Liu Jingfeng said, that the tomb chamber and the treasure room are behind the relief?
Want to step on the scales and break the door directly with a tool?
Then he shook his head. In the era without cranes, it was not easy to do this kind of project!
Unless under extreme circumstances, he would not consider this aspect.
He then focused on the statue of the soldier.
There are always two hundred soldier statues in the room. It is unrealistic to check them all!
Seeing Lin Ran checking, Liu Jingfeng finished chewing the bread, stood up, clapped his hands, and said, "Brothers, after finishing the work, let's work in pairs and cooperate with Brother Lin to check the stone statues."
"Okay." Everyone responded in unison.
Lin Ran smiled slightly. It was indeed not easy for him to complete the inspection work alone.
He said: "Everyone, please pay attention to whether there are buttons on the soldiers that can be pressed, or rotating stones."
Lin Ran told everyone the key points of the inspection, and then took the lead, starting from the fifth row.
"The work is so realistic. With this level, even if the country is destroyed, it can still be recruited by the Tang Dynasty. The early Tang Dynasty was hungry for talents.
The only strange thing are the eyes.
Shine a flashlight into the soldier's eyes. They are large and bulging out, looking like goldfish eyes.
And the eyes are particularly obvious. Most of the stone carvings I have seen before end at the eye frame.
These stone carvings not only have distinct eyes, but even the pupils are painted, and the details are perfect.
pupil?
Lin Ran immediately ran to Wang Jinpeng. Only he had the largest searchlight in his hand, which could clearly illuminate the scene in the distance.
Wang Jinpeng was rubbing his feet, and without hesitation, he gave the searchlight to Lin Ran and said, "Don't run out of power, it can still last for about two hours."
"It'll be all at once." Lin Ran picked up the searchlight and shined it on the ghosts and gods.
The bright light that came on instantly attracted everyone's attention.
They were all waiting for Lin Ran's answer.
Looking at the statues of ghosts and gods on the wall, Lin Ran smiled knowingly and took out the obsidian he had just taken.
No wonder the statue feels a little strange, because this ghost has only one pupil.
The other pupil was sunken, looking slightly dull.
"I think I've found a way!" Lin Ran whispered.
Lin Ran's words immediately attracted everyone's attention. Everyone stopped groping for the stone statue and came to his side.
Pointing to the statue of ghosts and gods, he said, "Although I don't know the name of the ghosts and gods, I can tell that he should be in charge of war matters."
"Look carefully at his right eye, the pupil is missing."
"And his pupils are right here."
Lin Ran held the huge obsidian in his hand, "As long as you insert the obsidian, you should be able to find a way to the ninth floor!"
"The reasoning is very exciting, but..." Liu Jingfeng said with joy and then worry, "I'm afraid it won't be easy to climb to a height of eight meters and install the obsidian."
Obsidian is not that big, about the size of a grapefruit, and can be held with one hand.
But who can climb to a height of eight meters with one hand?
They don't have stairs now.
Lin Ran pointed to the scales with a smile and said, "It looks like those are mechanisms, but in fact, they are props for climbing."
In order to reassure them, Lin Ran put the searchlight on the ground, pointed it at the statue, and said, "Look at me."
"Just let me do this physical work." Wang Jinpeng stood up immediately.
However, Lin Ran patted his shoulder and motioned for him to continue sitting.
Wang Jinpeng's ankle was scratched by something unknown and was bleeding, but Wang Jinpeng was wearing black pants, so no one noticed.
"Although the scales are the power point for climbing, they are in disrepair and may not be able to support your weight. Moreover, your leg is injured and needs to be treated. We have to be on our way later."
After Lin Ran's prompting, others discovered that Wang Jinpeng's trousers were bleeding.
A Ming reacted immediately, rummaged through his backpack for iodophor and a bandage, handed them to Wang Jinpeng, and said, "Jinpeng, you didn't tell us if you were injured."
Wang Jinpeng felt moved in his heart. Brother Lin is really a person full of details!
But when he wanted to say it was okay, he found that Lin Ran was no longer in the team.
He tied Obsidian around his waist with a piece of cloth and came under the demon statue.
With a solemn face!
