Chapter 617 Circular Tomb
Chen Ziyan knew that this stone slab was a coffin stone, but he didn't expect that he would not recognize the words on it.

You have to know that he is the inheritor of Xiangling's tradition. There are really only a handful of ancient characters in this world that he cannot recognize. He didn't expect to encounter one here.

But knowledge is something that if you don’t understand it, you don’t understand it, and there is nothing you can do about it no matter how unwilling you are.

After looking at the stone slab again and still having no clue, Chen Ziyan had to take out the rubbing paper and camera he had prepared long ago and save the contents on the stone slab.

After all, he couldn't guarantee that he could take the stone slab away. In order to prevent accidental damage later, he planned to keep it for himself first.

The guys were not surprised at Chen Ziyan's behavior. Although they did not take any action, they were secretly memorizing the strange ancient characters on the stone slab.

They have visited many ancient tombs and know very well that although the funerary objects in the tombs are valuable, sometimes the information deliberately recorded by the tomb owner is also of great value.

The most typical example is the Warring States silk book case that caused a lot of controversy at the time. Although few people knew what was recorded in the silk book, everyone could guess that it must be an extremely valuable secret.

Seeing that no one said anything, Chen Ziyan guessed what these guys were thinking, but he did not stop them.

Firstly, they didn't use any tools and relied solely on memory. He had no evidence and couldn't say anything. Secondly, he didn't think there was any use for the words these people wrote on the stone slabs.

Even he couldn't understand the words on it, and couldn't even tell which era it was from. He was afraid that there were few people in the world who could translate it, so it would be useless even if they wrote it down.

So Chen Ziyan didn't care about this matter at all. After preserving the text on the stone slab, he started thinking about a question.

The question is whether you should go down now!
Even if others don't know, he must know that there is a passage under the stone slab that can help them find the main tomb chamber faster.

After all, due to the special mechanism of this underwater tomb, the position of the tomb chamber has been changing in a cycle. If they follow past experience, they will probably have to find the pattern of the tomb chamber's circulation first.

But with this secret passage, we can skip this step and directly reach the main tomb chamber.

thump—

But before Chen Ziyan could think it through, a clear sound of an object falling suddenly came from the corridor behind them.

This not only interrupted Chen Ziyan's thoughts, but also brought the others who were silently memorizing the contents on the stone slab back to their senses.

There is no way, this is in an ancient tomb, any movement cannot be ignored.

Almost instantly, everyone turned around and looked towards the corridor.

However, after using the searchlight, nothing unusual was found. As for the tomb chamber at the other end, only a small area of ​​the stone door could be seen, and not much else could be seen.

"Master Chen, the noise might have come from the tomb we came from. Could it be that those sea monkeys followed us in?" said a waiter.

Chen Ziyan didn't say anything. With his good hearing, he had already heard the specific distance of the sound, and even could tell that it was the sound of a heavy object falling to the ground.

So he didn't reply, but listened attentively, trying to see if he could hear more details.

Seeing that Chen Ziyan didn't say anything, Dong Yanxia seemed to understand something. He reached out to stop another guy who wanted to speak, and signaled everyone to keep quiet.

The others were not stupid either. After his reminder, they realized that Chen Ziyan was collecting information using his method.

After all, Xi Ling's skill of hearing mountains and identifying dragons was well-known in the industry, and they had all heard of it a long time ago. No one noticed that while everyone was waiting silently, a few people at the back of the crowd exchanged glances with each other, and then looked at Chen Ziyan with a strange look.

After about a minute, Chen Ziyan let out a sigh of relief and said to everyone, "There is no other movement, it should not be a sea monkey."

He was also worried that the sea monkey had caught up with him. After all, in the original plot, the only remaining sea monkey did this kind of thing.

However, after waiting for a while and still not hearing any footsteps, Chen Ziyan knew that the noise was not made by the sea monkeys.

If they are sea monkeys, no matter how careful they are, they will inevitably make noises. At least the sound of water coming out is unavoidable.

But now, apart from the sound of a heavy object falling, there was no other sound, which meant that this matter had nothing to do with the sea monkeys.

"Let's go back and take a look."

Afterwards, Chen Ziyan walked towards the corridor first without waiting for others to speak.

He did not discuss this decision with anyone because he felt there was no need to do so. No matter what the reason was, they had to go back to the previous tomb and make sure there were no hidden dangers before they could continue doing other things.

Otherwise, if something really appeared in the tomb, wouldn't that mean it could appear behind them at any time? This kind of hidden danger must not be tolerated.

The others had no objection to this and decisively followed Chen Ziyan.

Not to mention that Chen Ziyan is the boss and has the right to make the decisions, they also believe that this possible hidden danger needs to be eliminated first.

After all, if there is a real problem, it may concern their lives and property.

No one would risk their life, especially those of them who live on the edge of a knife, who take such things even more seriously.

The inside of the corridor remained the same as when they had walked through it before, and had not been replaced again. However, looking at the stone door in front of him, Chen Ziyan had a vague premonition that the tomb chamber they were about to enter might not be the one they had entered.

After entering the stone gate, Chen Ziyan only took a glance and knew that his premonition was correct. The tomb had indeed changed its appearance.

Although there is still a pool in the center of the tomb, the structure of this tomb has undergone tremendous changes, directly from a square to a circle.

Obviously, this place has been replaced by the agency.

After discovering this, Chen Ziyan understood what the sound they had just heard was. If he was not mistaken, it should be the sound of the mechanism.

At this time, other people also followed in. When they saw the changed tomb chamber, they first held their weapons vigilantly, and then looked at Chen Ziyan at the same time.

"Look above your head."

Chen Ziyan knew what they were thinking, but did not answer immediately. Instead, he gestured for them to look up.

Because he suddenly made a new discovery.

Although everyone was a little confused, they still looked over, and then they were attracted by what Chen Ziyan discovered.
