MTL - Tomb Raider: Bandit Chief-Chapter 47
It seems that after this trip to present the king's tomb, the quest reward plus the recovery of artifacts, the luck value can break through 100,000 again.
In addition, he had already negotiated with Chen Yulou to exchange gold and silver for the artifacts of Chenjiazhuang, and he will start the exchange after returning home. Maybe the luck value can exceed 150,000!
Just as Wei Chuan's smile became brighter, Xiao Hei poked Wei Chuan with his elbow and made a mouth shape.
'Bring me some! '
Seeing this, Wei Chuan also nodded with a smile, his expression a little weird.
Xiao Hei is not short of money, he just has a quirk, likes to collect gold and silver artifacts, and he has never asked him to take anything that was in his hands before. He just loved the moment when he took the baby out of the grave. .
Chapter 96
Going two steps forward, at this time, there are three short and narrow stone bridges connected together in front of the tomb passage. These three stone bridges are connected together, really like big waves. Under the bridge is full of turbid yellow water.
"Three Worlds Bridge! The main tomb is just ahead!" The moment he saw the bridge, Partridge Whistle became excited.
Because this bridge is called "Three Worlds Bridge". According to ancient legends, if a person can ascend to the sky after death, he must first step through the Yellow Springs and walk on the Three Worlds Bridge to wash away the entanglement of the secular world. imaginary.
"The main tomb is not only in front, but the King Xian is not the only one buried..."
Chen Yulou also spoke with a smile on his face.
On the reliefs of the Sanshiqiao, the animal spirits and beasts carved are a pair of male and female, so there are likely to be two coffins in the main tomb, which means...the burial artifacts are also double!
Even if a husband and wife are buried together in one coffin, the inner and outer coffins must be bigger, right? Can hold more Ming ware!
Since the Sansi bridge is reserved by the owner of the tomb as the only way to ascend to immortality after his rebirth, everyone does not have to worry about having traps buried, because it is impossible for the tomb owner to keep traps to deal with the "self after becoming a fairy".
It is also because these people who want to become immortals are too arrogant. They think that no one can find their tombs, and they think that they will be reborn, so there are very few organs in the tomb, which gives great convenience to the Daodou people.
King Xian never imagined that Wei Chuan and the others would break through several roadblocks he had set up relying on the water dragon halo.
Once you cross the Sanshi Bridge, walk into the stone gate in front of the bridge. A wide cave appeared in the eyes of everyone. This cave seems to be formed naturally, and the surrounding rock walls are not so smooth.
In the center of the cave, there is also a Yin palace for the tomb owner to rest in peace. The snow-white palace wall is very conspicuous in this dark cave.
This kind of white is not the translucent white of white jade, but the pure white of white quartz. The palace wall is directly connected from the ground to the roof of the cave, which looks like the supporting pillars of the cave. There is also a door opening in the wall, and in that door opening stands a large wooden door nailed with thirteen bronze mothers.
Although there are countless anti-corrosion and insect-proof methods, after more than two thousand years, the wooden door is as rotten as tofu, and it is supported by the copper mother frame on the door.
Wei Chuan just pushed lightly with his foot, and the wooden door broke open and fell to the ground in all directions.
"Let's go, Xian Wang is playing the trick of becoming an immortal, there will be no mechanism in the tomb."
Wei Chuan knew that there were no tricks in the tomb, so he walked in first after saying a word. Seeing Wei Chuan leading the way, the three people behind them also followed directly.
"Matryoshka?..."
As soon as he walked in through the wooden door, he saw another wall of the Yin Palace appearing in front of him.
The entire Yin Palace should be a "back"-shaped structure, but there is no obstruction on the second tomb wall, but an arc-top door directly appears on the tomb wall.
In the aisle between the two tomb walls of the "Hui" character wall, there are piles of various Ming vessels, including giant copper sacrificial vessels, copper plates, and copper tripods. There are also countless ivory jade coins.
The moment he saw these gold and jade artifacts, Chen Yulou's heart jumped again.
This tomb of King Xian is really a mountain of gold and silver. After entering the tomb, countless treasures are placed in every level. Just by looking at it, one can tell that the value of these treasures is at least dozens of times that of Pingshan's harvest.
Wei Chuan was also a little greedy, but thought that Muchen Bead was right in front of him, so he didn't pay much attention to these artifacts.
After passing through the arc-top door, one enters the tomb of the palace with the word 'Hui'.
A few phosphorescent tubes were thrown out, and the faint blue light dispelled the darkness in the main tomb.
Under the light, there were three coffins in the tomb. It's just that the position and method of placing the coffins are a bit weird. The three coffins are connected to form a "human" shape.
These three coffins are all different, not only because of the strange arrangement, but also because of the huge difference in shape, materials and specifications.
····Ask for flowers··········
The closest one to the crowd is a bronze coffin, which is hung in the air by copper rings, and it is the head of the character "human". The two coffins behind are sarcophagus and wooden coffin respectively.
The wooden coffin only had a coffin without an outer shell, and it was just a single layer of yinzi wood.
"Everyone, be careful! The cellar coffin and the bronze outer coffin... are both big murderers, and there may be something to be suppressed inside!"
When seeing the three coffins, Chen Yulou said in a cold voice.
Although there are three coffins, it means that there are more and more precious artifacts buried with them, but the bronze coffin and cellar coffin are notoriously fierce!
And the King Xian actually arranged the main tomb in this way, which is completely unreasonable, and it is not a simple arrangement.
Partridge Whistle also frowned, stopped where it was and didn't move forward.
"There are three coffins, and most common burials are joint burials of husband and wife. Could it be that King Xian buried his offspring here as well?"
"No... Even if King Xian is cruel, it is impossible for his children to be buried with him! This smallest sarcophagus may not contain the whole body, it may be buried in pieces or in limbs!"
Regardless of whether it is a treasure cave or a fierce cave, there is no reason for three people to be buried together.
Seeing that the three of them were intimidated by the three coffins, Wei Chuan felt a little impatient, he still wanted to get the Muchen Bead earlier!
So Wei Chuan interrupted everyone's speculation, and said directly:
"Don't forget that the arrangement starting from Zhelong Mountain was all set up by Xian Wang for becoming an immortal."
"Since it doesn't make sense to use the inverted theory, let's think in another direction. We just... walked the Sanshi Bridge!"
As soon as Wei Chuan's words fell, the three of them were taken aback for a moment, and immediately showed a look of sudden realization.
Partridge Whistle also blurted out directly: "Prove the Tao and become a fairy?!"
"The bridge of the third generation, the coffin of the third generation, and the killing of the third life? So, these three coffins are not the deity of the king!" Gong.
Chapter 97
"That's right, what's here is only the Three Lives III of the King Xian."
Seeing that everyone understood, Wei Chuan grinned and said:
"Xian Wang was deeply influenced by the ancient Taoist theory of becoming an immortal and attaining the Tao, so the layout of the tomb is based on the Taoist legend."
"And Taoism has always had the legend of the three lives of immortality. The first three lives are also called the three prisons. The final death is not ordinary, so this kind of bronze coffin and cellar that can suppress Yin and evil is used. The coffin to be buried."
"Look at the specifications of these coffins. It's obvious that they don't belong to the same era. Instead, they were dug out from other tombs by King Xian and placed in front of the Sanshi Bridge as his third life."
Speaking of this, Wei Chuan's eyes narrowed slightly, and he pointed to the bronze coffin hanging in the air.
"This can be used as Sansheng's corpse. The death is not ordinary. If the corpse is raised... it is not ordinary."
Wei Chuan's finger made the faces of the three of Xiao Hei serious.
I was so excited before, you didn't notice the movement in the tomb after you talked to me.
Now that the atmosphere has returned to calm, the three of them listened carefully, and they heard subtle movements coming from the bronze coffin.
You must know that the bronze coffin is embedded with magic tools used by King Xian to suppress the three lives. In addition, the bronze coffin has the effect of suppressing it. thing.
But even so... the things inside are still moving.
It is conceivable how fierce the things contained in this bronze coffin will be!
Seeing that the faces of the three people had changed, Wei Chuan grinned, patted the bronze coffin, and said with a soft smile:
"It's okay, without the support of the earth's energy, no matter how fierce you are, you can't break the bronze coffin. Even if it comes out... it's just a matter of three halberds. Compared with the big centipede and the big snake, the zongzi is more interesting."
".."
Wei Chuan's slap almost scared the souls of the three of them away. They all saw that the bronze coffin began to tremble slightly.
The three of them already recognized that the specifications of the bronze outer coffin belonged to the Xia Dynasty. That means the contents inside were four thousand years ago! Inside this coffin is Xian Wang's first life! That is, the worst life ever!
God knows how crazy King Xian was in order to become an immortal, and actually found such an ancient rice dumpling to act as his past life, and it was still an ancient rice dumpling full of resentment.
But seeing the two short halberds on Wei Chuan's back, everyone felt relieved again.
Indeed, Zongzi is easy to deal with according to Wei Chuan's second corpse king's style of play. Four people fight together, not to mention the 4000-year-old zongzi, even the legendary corpse immortal dares to fight without melting bones.
It's all here, no matter how old you are, you must fight to the death!
"Brother Wei, where is the tomb dedicated to the king hidden?"
Seeing that the things in the bronze coffin were only furious and could not escape, Chen Yulou asked about the main tomb of King Xian.
After all, he had only heard about the coffin of the third generation at the Sanshiqiao, but he really didn't know what the Taoist legend was about.
Hearing this, Wei Chuan pondered for a moment, then pointed to the bottom of the tomb, and then pointed to the top of the tomb.
"Since even the 'Three Worlds' were created by King Xian, then the 'Shadow Bone' must also exist. Since ancient times, Taoism has cultivated the body and nourished the Qi in order to achieve Taoism and immortality, and escape from life and death."
"However, according to Taoist legends, before one wants to achieve longevity, one has to go through a few times of rebirth, but that rebirth is not something that can be obtained by manpower, but must go through life and death disasters."
"And the catastrophe of life and death is not something that can be met if you want to, but you can survive it. Therefore, Taoist seekers will look for some bones of the previous three generations that can be used as replacements, and bury them in the tomb as 'shadow bones', to prove to the world I have experienced the suffering of the 'Three Prisons', so that I can hope to fade away from vulgarity and become immortal."
Speaking of this, Wei Chuan pointed to the somewhat short sarcophagus in front of him and said:
"The shadow bone is the most severely tortured part of the bones of the third generation, spliced into a complete skeleton, and used as a certificate to stay in the mortal world after becoming a fairy...so the short sarcophagus is not because of the children buried, but because of the torture. The heaviest part of the skeleton was taken away, so this small sarcophagus is enough."
"So, if this King Xian really wants to become an immortal, then his tomb should have three floors. This floor represents the human world, containing his third world. The pain of prison, and the last layer...represents the fairy world, and he is the only one buried!"
"The fairyland... must be above the human realm!" Partridge Whistle said with certainty, looking towards the top of the tomb.
"Since this is the case, there must be no funerary objects in the two-story tomb containing the third world and the third prison... Before the flood comes, let's explore the main tomb first."
Chen Yulou also nodded, and stopped paying attention to the three coffins in the tomb.
Originally, he wanted to take advantage of the crowds to open the coffin, but after hearing what Wei Chuan had said, he immediately lost interest.
After all, since this coffin represents the third generation of King Xian who suffered in the world, there will never be any treasures buried with him, otherwise it would be called the third generation of disaster.
There may be only three extremely fierce old rice dumplings inside.
With this time, it is more cost-effective to explore the main tomb as soon as possible. After all, the black pig crossing the river symbolizes the coming of heavy rain and flooding. Their time is running out.
Seeing that everyone wanted to go to the main tomb first, Partridge Whistle also got excited, took out the flying tiger claws, hooked them on the beams on the roof of the hall, climbed up along the rope, and immediately groped carefully on the white rock on the top of the tomb stand up.
Not long after, the partridge whistle had a happy face and let out a low cry.
"Everyone, I found it!"
"There's a slab on top of this rock! It's hollow!".
Chapter 98
When he saw the secret passage on the top, Partridge Whistle was shocked, and the strength of his hands became stronger after being overjoyed.
It didn't take long to clean off the moss and ash on the top, and then took out the small Luoyang shovel and knocked **** the tomb brick.
Click..
Boom! ..
There was a dull sound of bricks falling to the ground, followed by the sound of bricks breaking, and the tomb bricks were directly smashed by the partridge whistle. The partridge whistle also turned around and jumped away, avoiding the falling bricks.
"Brother Dao...don't be so anxious, that Muchen Bead can't escape."
Chen Yulou patted the dust that fell on his head, and said something to Partridge Whistle helplessly.
After being told by Chen Yulou, Partridge Whistle remembered that the tomb brick just now seemed to be able to be moved to the side. Thinking of this, Partridge Whistle was embarrassed, smiled and said nothing.
"Okay, let's go up and talk!"
Seeing the tomb passage on the top, Wei Chuan couldn't bear it any longer. He is more anxious than a partridge whistle...
Seeing Wei Chuan crawling into the tomb passage along the flying tiger's claws, the three Xiaohei also climbed up.

After getting into the tomb passage, there is another upward slope, but the **** is not very steep. Taking a closer look, the tomb looks like a funnel, and the hole they climbed up just now is the long mouth of the funnel.
The walls around the ramp are covered with large-scale murals, all of which are about "emperors" and "immortals".
Needless to say, King Xian's imagination is rich enough. The murals that he saw along the way are all depicting the scene of King Xian ascending to heaven and becoming the king of immortals.
