C198 (1/2)
The man opposite me said no more. He silently took off his jacket and draped it over my shoulders.
Seeing that I wanted to reject his good intentions, he put his hand on my shoulder. ”Alright, the past is over. Don't go against your body. This place is too hard, a girl like you can't take it!”
Even though he said so, I still couldn't accept his kindness. His coat was much warmer on his shoulders, but it didn't feel good to see him wearing only a thin white shirt.
Hmph, who told you to provoke me, you deserve it! I continued to grumble at him in my mind, and before I knew it, I fell asleep on my lap.
I don't know why, but the sleeping me did not feel colder and colder. Instead, I felt warmer.
When I woke up, I found that it was the man opposite me who had built a fire for me.
You didn't sleep all night? I looked at him in surprise?
Are you stupid? Both of us are asleep, what if we encounter some danger? Besides, in such a cold place, if I don't watch the fire all night long, you'll freeze to death if it goes out.
I looked at the fire with some sparks still burning in front of me and was speechless.
Alright, the situation is now very clear, other than the two of us, no one else has found the entrance to Xishan's tomb, the sky is already bright, what choice do you have?
Thinking of the two of us entering the tomb, I still refused in my heart. But there was no other way, we couldn't stay any longer.
It's not that I don't want to go in, it's just that it's said that it's extremely dangerous inside. Can the two of us really deal with it?
Ordinary two people obviously wouldn't be able to do it, but don't forget, I am a fighting aficionados. I once entered a very dangerous tomb by myself, and later on, wasn't I also able to escape safely?
I made up my mind. I gritted my teeth and stomped my foot. Fine, I will enter as soon as I go in. Isn't it just a huge tomb? I don't believe it, there's a man-eating monster inside!
Lee and Yue clap their hands and stand up, their faces black from burning the train all night.
I couldn't help but take out my handkerchief and wipe it.
At first, he was stunned, but after he reacted, he suddenly grabbed my hand. Lady Su Su, you …
I quickly withdrew my hand, afraid that he would misunderstand, and explained, ”I, I just want to thank you for guarding the fire for me last night. Seeing that your face is too dirty, I'll wipe it off. Don't think too much about it!”
After saying that, my whole body felt awkward. After entering the tomb, I still had to rely on Li He Yue's rich experience. If I were to say something too stiff now, it would probably be awkward the whole way.
Lee and Yue had been explaining to me all along the way that the knowledge about tombs was that anyone with status would cultivate their own tombs in such a remote place. After asking Mr. Feng Shui to take a good look at them, he would use the entire mountain as a main body to prevent tombs from being stolen.
However, tombs robbers nowadays were getting more and more skilled. Excavating this type of tomb was simply not a problem.
Then, there must be a lot of killing traps inside? I asked.
They are all powerful people who are afraid of the tomb robbers, and disturbed their own rest. Thus, they designed all sorts of wondrous sights in their own tombs, and in the end, the designers and the excavators were all buried together inside, sealing the entrance to the tomb. No one knows where the tomb is located.
He pushed open the door and entered a tomb chamber that was very different from the place he had come from. Not only was it grand and magnificent, it was also completely clean.
There were no coffins inside the tomb, but there were a few large lifelike sculptures. Some of the sculptures were of soldiers riding war horses while some appeared to be of infantry. Everyone held their weapons and appeared to be extremely fierce.
”From the looks of it, this should be the burial chamber for the funeral. Since we're here, the thieves won't leave empty-handed. How about we follow each other?”
”You really have a crafty heart. If some evil spirit really takes the item, wouldn't it bring disaster upon yourself?”
”If you walk too much at night, you will eventually encounter a ghost. Since you dared to steal a tomb, of course, you're not afraid of dirty stuff.”
After saying that, I started to flip around. I rolled my eyes, too lazy to deal with him. Forget it, if you want to take it then take it, but be careful, there might be a trap here. ”
”There's a trap? How did you notice?”
”Look at these burial items. They seem to be placed in a disorderly and disorderly manner, but in truth they are very orderly. I'm afraid that whoever you are assigned will trigger the traps, and you might lose your life.”
Li He Yue knew that I was an expert at mechanism. After hearing what I said, she hesitated, ”Lady, don't scare me. These are all good things. If you put them down, I will regret it!”
”Don't you think it's strange that there's no mechanism in such a large tomb?”
Li He Yue shrugged her shoulders. ”Look at the things here, most of them are bronze artifacts. It seems like they are very old.”
”Bronze artifacts indicate that it has existed for a very long time?”
