Tomb Raider: The Last of Zagrama
Chapter 4
It took several days to clean out at least hundreds of tons of yellow sand.
As the yellow sand in the tomb passage was cleared, Zhou He also discovered a human bone broken at the elbow and dark black blood stains on the stone slab of the tomb passage.
It can be seen from the bone fracture that the broken bone was cut off with a sharp steel blade.
There are rough and torn marks on the bone incisions.
This kind of mark is definitely not a wound caused by a sword.
Sharp weapons such as swords have sharp edges, resulting in a smooth cutting section.
If you are a martial arts master, the effect will be even better, and it will not even leave a rough feeling.
But the hand bones in front of me were not only rough with wounds, but also had signs of tearing, and the edges of the bones were broken inwards.
Obviously, the injury was not caused by sharp weapons such as swords, but more like things made of fine steel that had not been sharpened or sharpened.
Zhou He was sure that this arm was left by Partridge Whistle.
Moreover, the danger encountered by the other party is absolutely extraordinary, and it is even so dangerous that if Partridge Whistle does not cut off his arm immediately, his life will be in danger.
This can be clearly concluded from the dense corrosive pits on the arm bones.
Zhou He believed that if he were in the same position, he would not be able to do better than the other party.
From the blood traces along the way, we can determine how badly Partridge Whistle was injured at the time.
In addition to this blood stain, there was a large pool of dark black blood next to it.
The area is larger, and dark black drag marks are left on the ground.
"Not surprisingly, this is the blood of Elder Liao Chen…"
"Moreover, in addition to the two masters and apprentices, there was another person accompanying them."
Regarding this point of judgment, the main reason is that the blood stains on the ground are very uniform and in the middle. In addition, there are sporadic blood stains near the left side of the stone wall. The blood stains left on the bottom edge of the stone wall are in the shape of sputters.
Regarding the travelers , Who, Zhou He couldn't guess.
He was expected to be traveling with Partridge Whistle and the Master of Partridge Whistle, so he should be from the same profession.
These two bloodstains followed the tomb passage more than 20 feet long and reached the center of the shaft. Below.
After reasoning, Zhou He stopped thinking too much, wrapped the arm bone of the partridge whistle and put it into the space, and turned to look at the gate in front of him.
This gate is tall and big, with a round arch like a city gate. It occupies the entire section of the tomb passage.
The entire door is carved from white jade without any patterns or decorations. In addition, it is surrounded by the jade door, with many Xixia characters engraved on it.
Although I can't understand the characters, I think it should be Buddhist scriptures.
After all, Xixia is very devoted to worshiping Buddha. Along the way, they saw the Mahavira Hall, the stone Buddha more than fifty meters long, and the densely packed Buddhist scriptures in front of them.
These are all favorable evidences.
In addition to these words , there was only a broken copper beam and giant lock on the Jade Gate.
I went to check it out and determined that it was the Lianxin Lock from the Northern Song Dynasty.
Before this Lianxin Lock was destroyed, it was connected to the bronze beam on the Jade Gate. Together.
Outsiders do not have the key. Once they forcefully open the lock or destroy the giant lock, the mechanism will be triggered immediately.
At that time, there will be traps such as poisonous smoke, crossbow arrows or quicksand. The arched grottoes on both sides will allow those who trigger the mechanism to escape. There was no escape.
Thinking of this, Zhou He became even more wary of the treasure room behind the door.
He uncovered the stone bricks under his feet, revealing a large hole that led directly to the tomb behind the Jade Gate.
This entrance was specially left by the Xixia people , the stone bricks were not completely sealed, but were movable. When I stepped on it just now, I noticed something was wrong.
As for the jade door in front of me, it was because the mechanism was touched, and the top stone behind the door was blocked. The door cannot be opened from the outside.
Throw a phosphorescent tube down the hole, fix the rope, and slide down the rope. As soon as the person comes down and stands still, he sees a huge black stone hanging in the tunnel.
Look. It looked like a honeycomb, but it was full of weirdness.
He held up the phosphorescent tube and looked carefully. It looked like stone but not stone, or jade but not jade. He had never seen this thing before, and for a while he didn't know what it was..
I had to turn sideways and be careful not to touch. As soon as
I entered the tomb, I felt my eyes light up. The six-foot-wide tomb was filled with jewels, and various treasures piled up like a hill looked extremely colorful in the blue light of the phosphorescent tube. , and dazzling.
The most regrettable thing is that among this pile of jewelry, a huge coral tree studded with various gemstones was broken into several pieces of various sizes and scattered on the ground.
Then there were countless scriptures and classics, as well as large and small boxes filled with all kinds of gold and jewelry.
Even though it is a small country in a corner, the few good things that the Xixia royal family has accumulated in the past two hundred years are right in front of them. It's a pile.
The only thing that makes Zhou He difficult is that he can't take out all the good things.
Especially the coral tree that he finds most rare.
Such a large coral tree is rare in the world, even if it is Broken, its value and artistry are immeasurable.
Once the restoration is successfully completed, it will definitely shock the world.
Unfortunately, this coral tree is too tall and too large, far exceeding the capacity limit of the space, and cannot be taken out at all.
Subsequent excavation and protection here can only rely on the power of the state.
I selected two boxes of gold jewelry, a few pieces of small, suitable porcelain, and the pile of scriptures, but left nothing else untouched.
One reason is that the space is limited and he cannot take him with him, and the other reason is because he is officially registered.
Zhou He is currently in China and is a well-known private explorer.
The Archaeological Bureau registered his name, and the institute's data files were available for him to browse at will.
The most important thing for him right now is to find the Muchen Bead.
Anything else can fall back.
Otherwise, no matter how rich you are and how many good things you have, if you don't live past fifty, it will be in vain.
What's more, the clan left him many good things.
Although he is not that rich, he still has two to three million in cash, and he also has some antiques passed down from his ancestors, which he keeps at home in Beijing.
If you really want to compare, he is much more prosperous than the 10,000-yuan household in the 1970s and 1980s.
Compared with money and small life, he chooses small life.
After finding the Muchen Bead and breaking the curse passed down from generation to generation by the Zagrama clan.
At that time, when you live a good life for yourself, you must not only live comfortably, but also live happily.
