Chapter 174
Chapter 174
When everyone heard this, they couldn't help but be a little puzzled.
Miao Feng looked at Professor Zhou and couldn't help asking,
"These two ear chambers... How could it be a burial room? shouldn't it?"
Professor Zhou nodded, and continued
, "At that time,
there were indeed many countries with different customs in the desert. "
In some of these countries, even after death, the wife will go with the male protagonist, and only the pregnant woman can be exempted from death!"
"But... If a pregnant woman gives birth to a dead baby, then the dead baby and his wife must also be buried together
!" "In another tomb, it should be the wife of the owner of this tomb, and these two villains should be stillborn!"
When the words fell, everyone fell silent.
Although Great Xia had already abolished the custom of burial of the living as early as the period when a hundred schools of thought were contending.
But it was inevitable that there were some wild places at that time, and there would be such degrading customs.
Professor Zhou put on his gloves, took out the two stillborn babies infused with mercury, shook his head slowly, and said,
"I hope they have already cast a good tire!"
The mechanism at the bottom of the sarcophagus was pressed, and the stone slab at the bottom of the sarcophagus was slowly pulled out, revealing one of the long downward stairs.
Ye Xiao and others entered it one after another.
The main burial chamber is still narrow, with a huge square sarcophagus in the center, and there are pictures on the four walls, as well as some words that Ye Xiao can't understand.
"It's... This is the Uighur Mongolian script
!There seems to be a Mongolian tribal patriarch buried here!"This patriarch's name is Arhan, and it seems to be a relatively large tribal chief
!"But he died in battle with others!"
"Here is a detailed account of that battle..."
, Professor Zhou moved his gaze to the next mural.
But as soon as he turned his gaze, his pupils shrank suddenly, like being struck by lightning!
"This...
For a moment, Professor Zhou couldn't even speak clearly, and could only point to the mural, his face full of excitement.
"What's the matter, Professor Zhou, what's going on?" Miao
Feng was the first to notice Professor Zhou's strangeness, and hurriedly stepped forward to ask with concern.
But when his eyes came into contact with the mural in front of him, Miao Feng's eyes suddenly widened, and his face was full of disbelief!
"Isn't this the mural in the Buddha Hall of the Ethiopian Grottoes?"
At this moment, Professor Zhou already felt that his brain was a little confused, and his face gradually became dull.
When Ye Xiao heard this, he also walked quickly to the mural and began to look at the mural in front of him.
This should be the second trapezoidal mural in the Buddha hall of the Ethiopian Caves.
Above the mural, there is a river, and the men and horses on both sides are armed with scimitars, Jin Ge, and the battle is fierce.
Just the lines outlined on the mural, everyone could feel the fierceness of the battle, not to mention the real situation
of the battle at that time! After Ye Xiao looked at it for a while, he found that this mural was somewhat similar to the mural in the Buddha hall, but it was not exactly the same!
So immediately, Ye Xiao spoke:
" This is not a mural in a Buddhist hall, there are many differences!"
"But... Genghis Khan's last battle before his death should have been fought with the owner of the tomb here!
" "In that battle, Genghis Khan was also seriously injured, and he died soon after suffering from illness!"
Instead, Ye Xiao looked at Professor Zhou, who was still a little sluggish on the side, and asked
, "Professor Zhou, is there a record on this river,
what is its name?"
Hearing Ye Xiao call his name, Professor Zhou seemed to wake up from a dream and suddenly came back to his senses.
"Oh oh! I'll see... It seems to be called... Nimuti River?
" "What ???
" When Professor Zhou said the three words "
Nimuti", Tukun's frightened voice suddenly sounded behind him.
Everyone followed the reputation, but saw Tukun's face full of horror and shortness of breath.
"That's... It was a river of ghosts! Thousands of souls were buried in the river, but anyone who saw the Nimuti River would die violently!"
Legend has it that he was killed by those lonely ghosts!" "
I didn't expect this to be... It's true!"
Needless to say, this should be the legend of the locals of Erdos.
After pondering for a moment, Professor Zhou suddenly asked,
"Why do you say... Will anyone really see this dark river before?"
Tukun swallowed hard, his face full of horror.
He looked at Professor Zhou and said
, "This ghost river sometimes appears, but sometimes it disappears, and it is impossible for people to find his traces
!"
Unless you want to see this ghost river!"
"When I was a child, there was an old man who was allied with us, and he once saw this ghost river when he rode a camel into the desert. "
After coming back, this old man has been chattering, saying that he saw the ghost river or something, and died soon after!" At
the end, Tukun added, and said again:
"You, you must not go looking for the ghost river, if you anger him, we will also be killed!"
After Tukun finished speaking, the tomb suddenly fell silent.
Ye Xiao and Professor Zhou all fell into deep thought and began to think about what Tu Kun said.
The so-called "ghost river" will be asked for their life when they see it, and they will definitely not believe it!
The ghost river appears from time to time, and there must be a reason why it disappears, and the old man died... It should be because of the legendary ghost river he saw, and he was overly imaginative and frightened all day long.
Coupled with old age and frailty, it finally led to death because of the unbearable pressure.
These were scared to death because of ghost legends, and they were all confirmed in the end.
This time, nature is no exception.
However, after thinking about it for a while, Professor Zhou and the others didn't have much of a clue.
After all, they had not seen the so-called Nimuti River with their own eyes, and even the authenticity of its existence was up for debate.
So in the end, everyone didn't dwell too much on this matter.
Professor Zhou's gaze gradually fell on the stone wall in front of him.
"Wait a minute!"
Suddenly, Professor Zhou's face was surprised.
"The owner of this tomb... It seems that they are all buried next to the Nimuti River, just like the results of Sihan
!" Professor Zhou interpreted the words on the mural one by one, and finally got the exact answer, and suddenly became a little excited!
"In other words, we are actually next to the Nimuti Dark River now!"
This time, it was not only Professor Zhou.
The rest of the archaeologists were also very excited, and they all turned their eyes to the written records in front of them.
"It's true, it's true! We came to the Nimuti River where Genghis Khan's mausoleum is located by mistake!" Miao
Feng's face was full of excitement, and he even jumped up excitedly.
Looking back on the experience of these two days, they were in a race to the death almost all the time.
Now that the Nemuti River where Genghis Khan's mausoleum is located has finally been found, everyone can't help but hug each other and cry with joy.
There were only three people in the group, who seemed to be a little out of the way.
One is Ye Xiao, and the other is Tukun!
