Chapter 28: The Handsome King of Chu
I stopped and rubbed my eyes. This place is deep underground. Only Dr. Lin and I’s flashlight is the only source of light. What can light pass through?
But I remembered those unusual things I had seen before, and they were not good things! I didn’t dare to act rashly, so I patted Dr. Lin at my feet and shined a flashlight on him at the pile of shiny unknown objects.
Dr. Lin put his hands on the ground, tilted his head and looked for a while, then cautiously moved over little by little. I followed slowly behind him, feeling a little scared. I don't know if it was my imagination, but the pile of things looked a bit like a human figure.
!
The closer I got, the more convinced I was that it was sitting against the wall in a stiff posture. When I could completely distinguish its figure and shine a flashlight on its head, I almost lost the flashlight in my hand.
He fell to the ground, and all the blood in his body froze instantly——
It has the face of a monster!
I'm still far away from it, but I can definitely vaguely make out the distorted facial features on its face!
The lip gap that reaches to the ear, the disproportionately big nose, and the sinister hanging eyes!
How can this be called a face? This is an abstract painting!
Dr. Lin crawled forward quickly using his hands and feet. As soon as I had time to shout, "It's a monster!", Dr. Lin crawled in front of the thing!
He turned over and relaxed his knees, and sat side by side with the monster. After a long time, he greeted me with admiration: "This is a national treasure... Come here and open your eyes."
"What kind of national treasure is this!" I saw that he was not in any danger, so I took two tentative steps forward. It was only when his flashlight shone down that I came to my senses, "Oh my God, it's a gold-lined jade garment!"
I have seen this thing in the Xuzhou Museum. It is a treasure that is famous at home and abroad! The one in the museum belonged to Liu Wu, the third generation king of Chu, so this one must also belong to a certain prince and noble!
My fear was swept away. I thought that seeing gold in the treasure room would be enough to brag about it for a lifetime, but I didn’t expect to find a national treasure directly!
I eagerly rushed over to see what was going on, and only when I got closer did I realize that the monster's face was actually a beautifully carved mask!
Looking down, it is covered with jade pieces of different sizes. The jade pieces exude a warm luster under the illumination of the flashlight, and the joints are shining with dazzling light spots. If you look carefully, you can see that they are all pieces of clothing.
The thin threads used to pick up the jade pieces. The jade clothes must have gold threads. Those shining thin threads must be the legendary gold threads!
I couldn't suppress my inner excitement. I opened my eyes wide and hoped to remember all the details of this national treasure in my mind. This trip was so worth it! I couldn't wait to carry the national treasure to the city government immediately to ask for credit, and found that no matter what the national treasure was, I would be rewarded.
I’ll give you a reward of hundreds of thousands! Let’s not talk about the money. Aren’t all the TV stations rushing to interview me? Once this summer is over, I will have both fame and fortune and a worry-free life!
Dr. Lin was also very interested in admiring its exquisite and meticulous workmanship. I remembered that the jade clothes in the museum had fillers inside to support the three-dimensional jade clothes. The new jade clothes in front of me seemed to fit tightly.
According to the shape of the human body, does this mean there is something inside?
There is also the body of a prince among the national treasures?!
"Want to see?" Dr. Lin read my expression, put his hands in the sleeves of his jacket, and prepared to remove the national treasure's mask through his clothes.
The curiosity and excitement in my heart far outweighed the fear of the corpse.
At most it's a skeleton, at most it's a mummy, and I've seen beef jerky being stabbed to pieces, what could be more disgusting?
I was mentally prepared and nodded towards Dr. Lin. His hand hidden in his sleeve pinched the chin of the mask and carefully lifted it up——
I looked at it expectantly and couldn't help but exclaimed: "Oh my god...how is this possible!"
The corpse in the national treasure completely exceeded my psychological preparation. I didn't even dare to call it a "corpse". It actually didn't leave any traces of decay. Compared with the dirty face of Dr. Lin next to me, I was even more surprised. I believe it just fell asleep.
It has long and delicate eyebrows, with distinct eyelashes on its closed eyes. Its face is as white as snow, but there is a small contrasting spot on its cheek. Its lips are slightly raised, showing the same purple-black color as the spots.
Based on his appearance, he should be a handsome man who has just entered middle age.
I stared blankly at this handsome guy who looked like a living person. No matter how I looked at it, he didn't belong to the concept of a thousand-year-old corpse. I couldn't help but put a finger under its nose to test whether it was alive. Still breathing?
"Don't touch it, he should have been poisoned to death." Dr. Lin whispered.
"Gan Sazi!"
At this moment, a cry of surprise suddenly came from behind! I was so frightened that I trembled and stretched out my hand.
"Don't! Don't touch it!"
This sentence kept being passed around, echoing "Don't touch it... touch it... it... ah...".
Although I was frightened by the inexplicable scream, I still had a big smile on my face.
This voice, this Trump, is Donghuang!
"Yao Mei! Don't touch it!"
I turned back to the direction of the sound with a smile on my face. In the darkness, there were only a few fluorescent sticks and one bright eye slowly approaching me.
Doctor Lin turned sideways and raised his flashlight to illuminate them. Only then did I realize that the surrounding space was actually very large, completely different from the low and narrow passage above. The weirdo was helping Dong Huang out of a dark hole.
"Donghuang! Weird!" After seeing each other for a long time, after life and death, I was filled with joy. I didn't care about the nervousness on Donghuang's face and waved to him desperately. I even blurted out the nickname I secretly gave Chaowendao in my heart, " But I found you two! Where did you go!"
The weirdo carefully placed Donghuang aside, asked strangely, "Who is the weirdo?", then rushed over and pushed me away from the national treasure, then muttered "I'm so hungry, so hungry" while rummaging around with Dr. Lin's clothes on the ground. Bag, while looking at the vest I was wearing with a mocking look on his face.
Heartless! I rolled my eyes at him, but I couldn't help but laugh twice. There seemed to be a sense of security in the unknown darkness.
I asked: "Dongdong is not with you two?"
"Strange to say, I was lying in the secret passage. When I saw him coming, I shouted twice inside, and then ran towards the room above. After waiting for a long time, Brother Dao came again, and we went back to take a look. I found that Dongdong's flashlight was standing on the ground, shining on a mechanism above his head, but he couldn't find it! I felt anxious and uncomfortable, so I stepped on your brother Dao's back and took a look. Who knew that he hadn't just Just one touch and we both fell down!"
I heard that the process of their disappearance was almost the same as ours, except that Brother Glasses discovered the secret on the ceiling for them.
"His boy should go ahead along this road. We will meet sooner or later, it's okay!" Dong Huang ignored his injured shoulder and waved to Dr. Lin to stay away from the handsome national treasure: "Stay away, this young man
There are black spots on his face and his mouth is also black, he must have been poisoned!"
"How do you know? Are you feeling better? Where did you go just now?" I asked him continuously like a machine gun.
He looked embarrassed, smiled bitterly and said, "These things are a long story... Do you still have water? I'm dying of thirst."
"I'm starving! Why don't I have anything to eat!" The weirdo handed a bottle of water from Dr. Lin's bag and threw it aside in frustration. "There's nothing to eat!"
Seeing the sad look on his face, I took out an energy bar from my vest and threw it to him like a savior. He immediately grinned and started eating with happiness on his face.
"Brother Dao and I didn't bring any supplies. We only had a Dongdong flashlight that was out of battery. Thanks to a few fluorescent sticks, he could still see a little bit of the road, so my eyesight went dark. Oh, thank you Yaomei.
!" Donghuang took the ham sausage, chewed it for two or three times and then swallowed it, "Where are your brothers, Brother Mouse?"
My heart sank. This topic is still very heavy. If the truth is told, Donghuang and the others may collapse for a while. As for Dr. Lin, I always feel that I can get something out of the imbalance of power, so I will continue.
The big lie of "Brother Monkey is dead and the mouse escaped" was fulfilled.
Donghuang and the weirdo silently listened to my description of the serial reprint and the way the corpse died. They both took a breath and praised the mouse for being really good at it. I was very nervous thinking about the rotten persimmons.
, I don’t know if it’s the right choice to hide it temporarily.
"Don't be too sad. Brother Monkey and us mice are brothers after all. We are also considered our own people. You don't have to worry about who will harm you." Donghuang comforted the expressionless Doctor Lin for a while, "But since
Let's form a team and no one should hold anything back. It's the last word to get out alive together. No private messages are allowed in our team!" Dong Huang immediately added in a stronger tone.
"I understand." Dr. Lin changed his tough tone when facing me and agreed softly.
I thought to myself, my dear, the momentum here has suddenly risen. Is it really a good move to use power to oppress others? It seems that I have indeed learned a trick. Originally, there were only two people, Dr. Lin and me, even though I knew
He has a ghost in his heart, so he can't take it away
How is he? Now that I have found the main force, he thinks there is a living rat outside, so he will never be able to survive alone without relying on us. What's more, he injured his leg. If he doesn't show that he is willing to cooperate, we will throw him away.
Not sure.
Dong Huang nodded with satisfaction and said with a hint of regret: "It's a pity that the mouse is not here, otherwise the door sealer in the cave wouldn't have blocked us. After waiting for so long in vain, opening the door has really become a problem!"
"What is a door sealer? What did you find out?" I heard another new term and looked around.
"It's a device in a tomb. Brother Mouse is the best at driving this kind of thing!" Donghuang took my flashlight and pointed at the entrance of the cave not far away, "Go in from here and walk about a street away. There is a
There is a hidden sentry door, a door slot, a door shaft nest, and a door slot. However, this is used to prevent tomb robberies. It can only be opened from the other side. Brother Dao and I don't have the skills of a mouse. After thinking about it for a long time, we can only go back the same way.
.”
"Wait a minute, it's only one street away? That's too far!" I was very puzzled by the design mechanism of the treasure room. "It's unreasonable! We've been deviating from the foot of the mountain all the way.
The distance is so short, why did Xiang Yu choose this mountain and dig such a long road to go somewhere else?"
He shook his head.
"Xiao Douding, you should have a nearby map in your mind." Dr. Lin said something out of nowhere, but he was actually talking to me.
That's great! I thought angrily, this was the first time he called me, and he actually called me "Little Douding"!
Donghuang glanced at the dial on his wrist, touched the wound, and grinned in pain and said: "The entrance to the cave is full of tatters and pits, and there is nothing. There is a door at the end. The leading direction is roughly north by west. This
The appearance of the hole is so baffling!”
"Let me think about it later! Jiuli Mountain is more than nine miles long from east to west. In addition to multiple hills, there are also several foothills." I tried my best to let my thoughts rise above the ground. "Go north and you should reach Xiangwang Road.
, if you walk one street away, you’ll be there..."
