Chapter 76 Face Relief

Under the leadership of Hu Bayi, the archaeological team walked along the stone wall passage toward the ghost cave below. The further down, the more deeply depressing it becomes. On the left is the hard stone wall, and on the right is the bottomless ghost cave.

The darkness seems to have condensed into a hole, and the beam of the flashlight cannot penetrate the darkness and shine on the opposite stone wall.

Zhang Jin suddenly said: "Have you noticed that the sound of the snakes crawling behind you is getting quieter and quieter?"

"Really? I didn't pay attention." Sa Di Peng shook his head.

Wang Kaixuan turned his head and shined the beam of the flashlight behind him: "When you say that, it seems that you can't see any trace of those black snakes. Didn't you chase them down?"

Shirley Yang said: "Is it possible that the black snake is afraid to approach the ghost cave?"

"It is possible that in the temple we saw the imaginary space, that is, the status of the ghost cave is above that of the black snake guardian god." Chen Jiuren said.

"Then are we out of danger?" Ye Yixin asked.

"Don't forget that Queen Jingjue can come down. Find a way out quickly." Hu Bayi reminded.

Zhang Jin walked a few steps forward past Hu Bayi. Under the light of the flashlight, there seemed to be some strange bulges on the stone wall in front of him. At a glance, it seemed that the entire stone wall was like this.

He turned back and asked Hu Bayi: "How deep do we go?"

Hu Bayi shook his head: "I don't know, I haven't calculated it, but it shouldn't be too deep. We only walked less than ten minutes."

Shirley Yang said: "The downward passage is not too steep. It only takes less than ten meters to go around in one circle at most. We went around several times, probably only tens of meters. What, did you find anything?"

"Not yet, but I think it may be different from the beginning." Zhang Jin shook his head.

Wang Kaixuan said loudly: "Then let's go and see what's different."

The archaeological team continued forward and walked about ten meters. The scene in front of them shocked everyone!

I saw reliefs of human faces carved on the stone wall in front of me, as if there was an invisible line dividing the cave into upper and lower parts. The upper part was an ordinary stone wall, and the lower part was a stone wall covered with reliefs of human faces.

Looking at this weird scene, Hu Bayi did not dare to move forward easily. He could only stop and said: "With such a scene, could it be that there is an imaginary number space below?"

Shirley Yang looked at the human face relief on the stone wall closest to them and said in surprise: "Professor Chen, come over and see if this is the exquisite carving technique of the country."

Professors Chen Jiuren and Hao Aiguo hurried forward and knelt down to inspect.

After a long while, Hao Aiguo shook his head: "Teacher, I don't think this is from the Jingjue country, or even the style of the ancient civilization of the Western Regions. It's too strange."

Chen Jiuren wanted to reach out and touch it, but was stopped by Shirley Yang. He had to give up and turned around and said: "This is indeed not the carving style of Jingjue Kingdom. It is completely different from the one in the temple. It is more like a modern carving style.

It’s closer to realistic reality rather than expressing imagery.”

"What does this mean?" Hu Bayi asked.

"It means these reliefs have nothing to do with Jingjue Country." Hao Aiguo said.

"Then who carved these face reliefs here?" Wang Kaixuan asked.

Hao Aiguo said: "No one knows this?"

"If we want to find out the answer, we have to continue going down. There are more reliefs below!" Chen Jiuren said.

Hu Bayi said: "We have to go down. After all, we still have to find a way out, but we have to test first to see if there is any danger."

After saying that, he asked Shirley Yang for a cold smoke fire stick, opened it and threw it into the passage in front. The red light suddenly illuminated a large area.

Under the red light, the stone walls up and down the passage were covered with reliefs of human faces, densely packed and without any order or beauty, as if they had been placed there casually. Some of the reliefs even had two faces overlapping each other!

Seeing this shocking scene, everyone couldn't help but gasp!

"This is too weird!" Wang Kaixuan couldn't help but say.

"I'm scared!" Ye Yixin's voice was trembling, and her hands and feet were numb.

"Don't be afraid, the professor and Brother Hu are both here." Sa Di Peng comforted.

It was also the first time for Hu Bayi to see such a scene. Compared with the cruel battlefield, the scene here was more frightening. He swallowed, took a deep breath and said: "Don't be afraid, everyone, it's just some

They're just reliefs, they're much cuter than black snakes."

Then, Hu Bayi tested the passage ahead using the method of touching Captain Jin to detect danger in the tomb passage. After confirming that there was no danger, he led everyone forward slowly.

The archaeological team soon entered a passage surrounded by reliefs of human faces.

"Teacher, the craftsmanship of these reliefs is also very good. Look at the eyes, the nose, and the expressions. They are really lifelike." Hao Aiguo quickly broke away from his nervousness and fear and began to study the reliefs on the stone wall.

Chen Jiuren sighed with emotion: "It is really a huge project to carve these reliefs of human faces in this bottomless ghost cave. If they were not carved by people from the Jingjue country, what kind of ethnic group would have such a kind of sculpture?"

Is this ability another secret that has been lost in the long river of history?"

"Could it be aliens?" Sa Di Peng asked.

Wang Kaixuan said: "If they are really aliens, they are also a group of evil aliens. Look at these reliefs of human faces. They all have frightened and distorted expressions, as if they have been treated cruelly!"

"The fat man is right, I also discovered that these face reliefs show struggle and panic, showing the most hysterical appearance of a person when facing fear." Shirley Yang said as he walked, "And, let's see

There is basically no duplication of these face reliefs. Even the most skilled craftsmen cannot have such rich imagination, right?"

"Could it be that he was carving while looking at it?" Chu Jian guessed.

"How many people will die? What an evil feudal society!" Wang Kaixuan cursed.

"It's not necessarily a feudal society, it's probably a slave society." Hao Aiguo added, "Judging from the traces of these reliefs, it's probably from the same period as the Jingjue Kingdom or even earlier."

“It’s all an evil old society anyway!”

The further you go down, the denser the face carvings on the stone wall become, and there are even raised palm prints. Together with the face reliefs, it seems like a group of people are struggling to escape from the stone wall.

It seemed like he was being chased by something terrifying.

Zhang Jin, who had been silent until now, suddenly said: "Do you think it is possible that these people are the ones thrown into the so-called imaginary number space by Queen Jingjue?"

Chen Jiuren was very interested and said: "Tell me what you think?"

"Professor Chen, didn't you say before that the ghost cave is likely to be an entity connecting the imaginary number space?" Zhang Jin said, "Maybe there was an imaginary number space under the ghost cave, and Queen Jingjue plunged people into this imaginary number space forever.

Not transcendent. But then Queen Jingjue died, the imaginary space lost control, and began to merge with the ghost cave and turned into a rock.
