The facade is made of gray stone with gold inlays, which emits a faint glow under the flashlight.
There is an exquisitely carved dragon head on the door, which looks mysterious and creepy.
Exquisitely carved stone lions are lined up on both sides, with sharp teeth and solemn expressions, as if guarding the secret behind the door.
Above was a huge circular arch with an ancient bronze bell hanging on it. Zhou Shuo couldn't tell whether it would ring or not.
The boy looked up at the huge door in front of him, and was already amazed in his heart.
Serious face, actually.
"I didn't expect that I would actually find it! Ahahaha."
This ancient tomb has existed under the desert for who knows how many years, with cold air swirling around.
Feeling a little cold, he took out a black work jacket from his backpack, which was both wear-resistant and cold-proof.
The boy is tall and slender, 189cm tall, and the chestnut hair on his forehead adds a bit of youthfulness.
He observed for a while and found a sunken niche in front of the door with a jade Buddha inside.
As Zhou Shuo held the Buddha statue in his hand, the door slowly opened.
There was a dull sound and a lot of dust fell down.
Standing on a high place, you can see its magnificent scale.
The boy carefully looked around and found nothing strange.
On the adjacent wall hangs a large and elaborately decorated black lacquer and gold-carved screen.
You can see the treasures neatly placed in different locations in the tomb.
The floor is covered with soft carpet and gorgeous tiles.
He put on gloves, half-knelt, and gently twisted it with his fingertips. The craftsmanship was definitely not something modern people could achieve. He was afraid of damaging it, so he didn't touch it too much.
You can feel the dignity and glory from ancient times at every step, and the golden crane sculpture looks like it is about to take flight.
There are a wide variety of exquisite porcelain and jadeite, each of which is priceless.
Even after a long time, the accumulated dust cannot hide its preciousness.
Zhou Shuo walked through the long corridor and saw the murals in front of him. A row of stunning paintings were outlined with gold as the pigment.
The first part is set against the backdrop of the imperial palace, which is luxurious and magnificent. The subsequent scenes are of the countryside, with mountains and water, and are magnificent. The protagonists are always a couple, and it can be seen that the man loves his wife very much.
Zhou Shuo guessed, so this is actually the tomb of ancient emperors and queens?
The ancient characters carved on the wall were already worn out, so he took out a book and looked through it for comparison.
One of the tomb owners was named "Lou", the emperor depicted in the mural, who held a noble status.
As for the queen's name, it is not indicated.
Thousands of years ago, this place was not the dreaded Ligol Desert.
There are many shops on the bustling streets, and many vendors are still selling goods on their shoulders.
The people live and work in peace and contentment.
Zhou Shuo was like Granny Liu entering the Grand View Garden, with his eyes wide open and a country bumpkin's look, staring at everything.
"How much are these worth? It's hard to estimate."
Yes, he's just an ordinary person.
Even the professor criticized him for always talking about money. The profession of archaeology should see the true value hidden behind the cultural relics. The most taboo thing is money. How vulgar!
The boy watched intently, completely immersed in the prosperous scene of the ancient country that had disappeared thousands of years ago.
He didn't notice that poisonous scorpions had crawled to his feet in groups, as if to drive away outsiders.
It wasn't until he felt an unusual sensation on his knee that Zhou Shuo looked down and saw the scorpion's stinger about to pierce his flesh.
Get up immediately and slap them away.
The boy lit the lighter. The scorpions were a little scared and did not come closer, but it was only a scare for a few seconds. Their numbers increased and became so dense that they were countless.
This is not a solution.
Zhou Shuo suddenly set his clothes on fire and swung them behind him to prevent them from jumping on him, then ran away as fast as he could.
Shuttled through the unfamiliar ancient road, the scorpion was chasing closely.
Finally he ran to the door of a unique tomb, and the scorpions hesitated for a while.
The boy keenly noticed something unusual. Could it be that they didn't dare to come over because there was something inside that even scorpions were afraid of?
Zhou Shuo pushed open the stone door without hesitation. The ground was covered with piles of silk and satin, as well as many exquisite decorations. It looked like a woman's tomb.
Seeing that he dared to go in, the scorpions went crazy and raised their stingers high to kill him, the rude guy!
Zhou Shuo hurriedly ran inside, but those poisonous creatures seemed to be blocked by an invisible barrier and did not come in. They just stood at the door and stared at him hungrily.
How strange...
He passed through boxes of rare treasures and did not stop, but kept walking.
Finally, I saw the transparent, misty, thousand-year-old ice in the center, with a sleeping girl lying on it.
Her crow-feather eyelashes were tightly closed, and her hands, whiter than the tips of scallions, were folded and placed on her abdomen.
Her skin is as smooth as jade and her figure is extremely graceful.
The phoenix robe the girl was wearing was made of unique silk and delicate Shui Na silk, and was pure red.
Inlaid with gold and silver wire piping, rare pearls and precious gems, it forms gorgeous patterns.
The phoenix crown is made of pearls and jade, and is finely crafted.
The gorgeous decorations made her face look extremely beautiful.
Zhou Shuo walked around the girl a few times, expressing his sincere emotion.
"It's so beautiful, but it's a dead one."
There was a slight blush on her cheeks, and she looked no different from a normal person.
The boy bravely put his hand under the mysterious girl's nostrils to test her breath.
He didn't see that his wrist was cut by the sharp stone. A drop of blood fell silently on the girl's skin, was absorbed and disappeared.
Zhou Shuo was bent over so that his profile was very close to the girl, and her eyelashes trembled slightly and then opened.
It was like a lifeless sculpture that was awakened and exuded an alluring luster, and the boy was stunned.
As a staunch materialist, he actually began to doubt at this moment, and his worldview collapsed.
The 189cm tall boy, who has always been fearless since childhood, now stutters when he speaks.
I didn't notice that I had chosen the wrong word.
"You...you are alive?"
Hearing this, Ruan Mian had not yet fully woken up from his drowsy state, so he blinked dazedly.
The girl's glass eyes became even more charming under the light of the treasure.
The small face, as big as a palm, was filled with confusion.
Zhou Shuo's jaw was tense and his earlobes were slightly red.
"Fuck, so cute!"
But is she a human or a ghost?
Why did the person who hadn't breathed suddenly wake up? Was I seeing things? Countless questions filled his mind, and he couldn't suppress them.
Ruan Mian felt dizzy and couldn't sit up, so she stretched out her hands to him, indicating that she wanted to be hugged.
The innocent boy's heart was beating wildly. She must be a fairy, otherwise how could she be so charming?
Although he thought so, he still walked over and took her off the ice cube without letting go.
The girl opened her lips and spoke softly.
"Okay, let's go."
