Walking to the stone gate, Chen Ze reached out and knocked on the door. Chen Ze heard a muffled sound coming from inside, which should be the mechanism inside being triggered.
"Click, click..."
The stone door slowly slid to the right, and a narrow corridor appeared in front of Chen Ze.
Chen Ze walked in quietly. The further he went in, the more eerie the atmosphere became. Chen Ze even had the illusion that he had entered a cemetery.
Chen Ze kept observing his surroundings to prevent any sudden attacks.
However, Chen Ze walked about five or six hundred meters without encountering any attacks.
At this moment, a faint light suddenly flashed in the corridor.
"Candle?" Chen Ze looked ahead in surprise. The candle was emitting a faint blue light, which looked a bit creepy.
Chen Ze approached the candles cautiously.
There were several wooden boxes placed not far from the candles.
"Hey~ Such a big box must be filled with valuable treasures." Chen Ze said excitedly, then ran up impatiently and opened a wooden box.
"Wow~" Chen Ze couldn't help but shouting as he looked at the jewels in the box. Chen Ze could see that these were all top-quality treasures, and each one was priceless.
Chen Ze closed the box, shifted his focus, and opened the other two wooden boxes.
The wooden boxes were filled with gold, silver and jewelry, and there were so many of them. Looking at this, Chen Ze felt like he was robbing a Thieves Guild, and that of a wealthy man.
Chen Ze opened the lids of the remaining two boxes.
"Sigh~~"
The two of them gasped.
There was a female skeleton lying in each wooden box. The skeleton looked to be around 30 years old, with disheveled clothes. But judging from the service she provided, she should be a woman from the Mingyue Empire period.
The two female skeletons had flat chests, thin waists, and thin cheeks, which were obviously caused by long-term malnutrition.
From this perspective, the owner of the tomb was quite a romantic man, as he actually had two beautiful wives and concubines at the same time.
Chen Ze continued to check other things. The treasures in this tomb were not just jewelry and jade. What surprised Chen Ze even more was that there were two boxes inside.
Chen Ze wondered if there were any rare treasures in these two boxes.
With a mind full of doubts, Chen Ze opened the two boxes.
After seeing clearly what was inside the box, Chen Ze's expression was very interesting.
"What the hell is this?"
After Chen Ze opened the box, a round stone was revealed.
After looking at it carefully, Chen Ze picked up the stone.
"This thing looks like it's made of ordinary stone. I wonder how much it can be sold for."
Although Chen Ze didn't know much about antiques, he could tell that this was just an ordinary stone.
But just when Chen Ze was about to throw it away, he noticed that there were words engraved on the stone.
【Green Dragon Jade Pendant】
Chen Ze was stunned. Green Dragon Jade Pendant?
The Azure Dragon is a famous general who protects the country in Chinese history. It is a symbol of the royal family and a totem of China.
It is said that the Green Dragon Jade Pendant was carved and polished by craftsmen under the sea by Qin Shi Huang for 3,600 years, and it took 9981 days to make, symbolizing good luck.
However, Chen Ze had seen relevant information on the Internet, and found that the Azure Dragon Jade Pendant had long disappeared in history. This is also a hidden pain for China.
Unexpectedly, the tomb owner actually owned a green dragon jade pendant. Chen Ze guessed that this tomb should be somewhere in the Mausoleum of Qin Shihuang.
The bronze coffin was the tomb of the tomb owner. Chen Ze guessed that the tomb owner should be a person from the Tang Dynasty.
However, Chen Ze did not expect that the owner of this tomb actually had two Qinglong jade pendants, and they were buried here. In any case, this is an ancient tomb.
But Chen Ze was a little confused. Why did the two green dragon jade pendants disappear?
Chen Ze used a lighter to shine on the Qinglong jade pendant and found that the words on the Qinglong jade pendant were all written in seal characters.
I saw the words "Li", "Zhao", "Liu", "Zhang" etc. engraved on this jade pendant.
"Li Bai? Zhang Yi?" Chen Ze muttered, but these were Chinese characters, not oracle bone inscriptions, so Chen Ze couldn't recognize them.
At this moment, Chen Ze suddenly had an idea. He seemed to have learned oracle bone inscriptions, although only the basics.
But Chen Ze still remembered the content of the oracle bone inscriptions: Under the rule of Qin Shihuang, the Chinese nation was prosperous and strong. During Qin Shihuang's reign, the national treasury was abundant and financially strong, with 200,000 tons of gold in the treasury.
At that time, Qin Shihuang built three mausoleums in the royal cemetery. The first was the Mausoleum of Qin Shihuang, the first emperor; the second was the Mausoleum of Emperor Taizu Ying Zheng; and the third is today's Mausoleum of the First Qin Emperor.
The third mausoleum is located deep in the Qinling Mountains. The feng shui here is very good, so Qin Shihuang placed his body here.
The jade pendant in Chen Ze's hand belonged to the second tomb. Chen Ze did not expect that the body of Qin Shihuang was buried in this tomb.
However, Chen Ze also knew that the owner of this tomb could not be Li Bai or Zhang Yi.
Because it is recorded in the "Book of Songs" that the names of Li Bai and Zhang Yi were not like this, and after Qin Shihuang's death, they were buried with Qin Shihuang.
However, Chen Ze decided to take the two jade pendants back first and have them appraised by professionals before making a decision.
"Huh~~" Chen Ze stretched his muscles and moved his stiff neck.
Chen Ze took a look at the room. The walls of the room were inlaid with various weapons, including swords, spears, swords and halberds, and they were all made of fine steel.
Chen Ze casually picked up a dagger on the table. The dagger was shining coldly. Chen Ze weighed it and felt the cold sharpness of the dagger. Chen Ze secretly praised, "What a good dagger, but it's a murder weapon!"
Chen Ze tried a few more moves and found that this dagger was not suitable for fighting, but for killing people.
Chen Ze sighed, threw away the dagger, and continued to look for a way out.
There is nothing else in this secret room except the gold, silver and treasures in the coffin.
Moreover, Chen Ze searched the entire tomb but found no way out, so he did not waste time and continued to search the house for treasures.
Chen Ze picked up the last roll of paper.
Chen Ze opened it and saw a map written on it.
This is a map of China, which indicates that this ancient tomb is the tomb of a certain dynasty in China. The tomb is located in a mountainous area.
And next to a river next to the tomb there is a ruined city.
"It seems that this tomb belongs to the Qin Dynasty!" Chen Ze guessed.
Chen Ze followed the map and finally came to the entrance of a cave.
This cave is exactly the same as the cave outside, but Chen Ze can be sure that it is empty because he heard a ticking sound coming from inside.
Chen Ze tentatively entered the cave.
The width of this cave is only slightly narrower than the hall outside. It is pitch dark inside and you can't see anything, not even pitch dark when you stretch your hand out.
However, Chen Ze was not panicked because he had already put on night vision goggles in advance.
With the help of night vision goggles, Chen Ze discovered a ray of light coming from a corner.
"here it is?"
"What is this?"
"This... this looks like a bronze door!"
"Could it be the portal leading to the center of the tomb!"
The closer Chen Ze got to the gate, the bigger it became. The gate was more than ten feet high. (End of this chapter)
