Chapter 40

chnique passed down from ancient times.In ancient times, due to the lack of advanced engineering technology, many large-scale construction projects frequently resulted in accidents and fatalities duri...Below them are goldsmiths and laborers. They also have dedicated personnel responsible for logistical supply, similar to the Northern faction.

The Sun brothers also told me about a set of slang terms passed down from the southern school of tomb robbing in old China.

Today I asked Yuanliang (Zhigu), "One river of water sees the scenery of two rivers, chopping wood on the mountain and burning it downstairs. There's nothing to do but climb to the Three Treasures Hall. May I ask how many hills you have broken through and what is your harvest"

Then someone answered.

The scenery on both sides of the Yangtze River is one water, originally a family. Over mountains and ridges, cuckoos call, observing earth and capturing dragons for eleven paths. Multiple times ascending to the treasure hall, never returning empty-handed.

"

"

After listening to my brother's words and adding my own analysis, I believe this was a situation where two tomb robbers from different gangs were trying to gauge each other's strength. They were essentially testing the waters and seeing how capable their rivals were.

After identifying the body through the small copper tray, Sun Lao Da stroked his chin and mused: "Lao San, in my opinion, could this be a case of betrayal within their own ranks Although we don't know this possibly Chen-surname gang member, just looking at the name 'Zhipo', it suggests he holds a high position within their organization..."

"Well... it's hard to say.... The folks from the south arrived before us, but we don't know where they came from. They've already lost so many people."

Big brother, we have to be careful.

"> "

"That's natural," Sun Lao Da nodded in agreement.

This burial chamber is rectangular in shape, with a large open space ahead. We don't know where it leads. Our group walked past the sacrificial burial area and continued forward.

We hadn't walked for two minutes when another stone gate blocked our path. Unlike the previous one, this stone gate was smaller in size. On either side of the gate stood two oddly shaped Qing stone sculptures.

Let me think, how should I describe these two stone carvings....

A triangular dog head, with a green face and fangs, a qilin body, human ears, a pair of wings tucked on both sides of the qilin body, its hind feet firmly planted on the ground, its left front paw slightly raised, its eyes bulging, the stone sculpture is about two meters three high, giving an overall feeling of ferocity, as if warning those who enter the underground palace.

"Such a ferocious guardian spirit..." Third brother held up his flashlight and scanned the surroundings.

Grave guardians are strange and varied, often imagined by the deceased during their lifetime. Like flying mythical creatures, they are part of funerary cultural inheritance. These bizarre and grotesque creations, both eerie and ugly, were the least desired items in antique shops. Along with pottery soul pupae, grave guardians were shunned.

Not to mention the bronze artifacts from the Shang Dynasty, just these two stone tomb guardians stolen and sold into museums. I estimate that museums wouldn't dare put them on display because they might scare the children.

"Third brother, look at the eyes on these two stone carvings!" I suddenly noticed a detail. The eyes of these two greenstone guardian lions are a bit different in size, one bigger than the other. Although the difference isn't much, it's noticeable to the naked eye. They aren't symmetrical.

Sun Lao San's face was grim.

"The guardian beast with the bulging eyes, a great evil. This thing is very unlucky, don't stare at it, let's get out of here."

”

"Go Where are we going, Lao San This gate's blocked!" Yi Zhe frowned.

"A palace this large, with only double doors Not surprising. I'm confident I can open them. At most, it will take a day," Sun Lao San said calmly.

"Just one day" a mole shouted, "Third brother! Have you gotten used to living down there for several months!"

"Oh, Xiaohong, you can't say that. We're not Sun Wukong and we don't have the ability to walk through walls. Lao San is right. It's rumored that our predecessors could dismantle up to the eleventh level of the Qiumen. We're nothing compared to them."

"

" Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

Yi Ke gave the Sun brothers a withering look and fell silent.

Peeking through a crack.

The stone gate blocking the way also has a closure stone, but its size and weight are far less than the previous one.

According to the Sun brothers' understanding, the door outside is the main entrance, and the door in front of them is the bedroom door.

You can only see the main person by pushing open the bedroom door. people. Did you notice their clothes Men in the Hutu tribe, no matter their age, all have that hairstyle, a small flat head!""Come on, let's hurry and pack up and go!""" Let me know if you have other...
