Yin Yang Tomb Raider

Chapter 238 Destroyed by those who came from the north

"Wait for the professor to wake up." Tao Ran said, "If you ask for the answer we want, you can take the professor out for medical treatment."

"What about you?" Huacheng didn't expect such an answer, and excitedly said, "Are you going to stay?"

"Hwaseong, I also want the 100% truth." Tao Ran said, "I said earlier that you and I are essentially two kinds of people."

The atmosphere became subtle, and a deep gully appeared between us and Huacheng. Huacheng looked at Lao Jiu coldly: "Don't think that I don't know what your idea is, the city is so big, there must be something wrong inside it." Less good things, right? There is no owner in this city, so you can take whatever you want!"

Lao Jiu said coldly: "Believe it or not, I'm really not short of money right now. I'm a bachelor, and the whole family doesn't have to worry about it. I like adventures, puzzles, and my own money." Find out the truth, if you don’t like ignorance, you just want to save your life. I just want to die. If it’s gone, it’s gone. Believe it or not, I don’t care about it. It doesn’t matter what you are doing, but you have been looking at people with colored glasses, this old man doesn’t like it, it’s very annoying, you are afraid of death, so go alone!”

These words are a bit too much. In the past, there was a layer of window paper, and everyone didn’t poke it, so it was safe and sound. Now it’s a bit embarrassing to poke it open. Huacheng was irritated by the word "fear of death". Not lightly, he leaned forward immediately, and Tao Ran immediately lay between the two of them: "Lao Jiu, let me chat with Huacheng, you take care of the professor and leave it to me, is that okay?"

Lao Jiu gave a "cut" sound: "Whether to go or stay, hurry up."

I pulled Lao Jiu to one side, the professor's condition improved a lot, at least his teeth were not clenched so tightly, Tao Ran and Hwaseong were talking about something, Hwaseong looked very excited, and suddenly put his hands on Tao Ran's shoulders, Immediately pushed away by Tao Ran, I turned my head back: "Lao Jiu, don't be serious with that kid, he's not the same person anyway."

"I didn't get serious with him, but he was biting me, talking about the past, and taking things. Even if I am a thief, I don't like people saying that I am a thief." Lao Jiu said: " Especially now that I really don't want to make money, Ge Laozi, scholars can be killed, not humiliated!"

Just as I was about to speak, I felt the professor's body shaking. I immediately looked down and saw the professor's face twisted together, with a very painful expression. I immediately called out: "Professor, professor!"

The professor opened his eyes with a groan, and when he saw me, his eyes lit up: "Step, step..."

"Okay, don't talk now, you haven't eaten for a few days." I said seriously: "Drink some more water."

The professor's eyeballs stopped moving, and he sat up suddenly: "Where is my bag, where is my bag, Lin Tianyi, hurry up, find my bag quickly, there is..."

"There is "Xixia Wine Book" inside." Tao Ran came over with his backpack, Huacheng followed, and said without mentioning to leave, "Professor, what happened?"

The professor was still hesitating, and Tao Ran said angrily, "Professor, how long will you keep it a secret after so many people died?"

"Dead?" The professor finally moved, "What happened?"

I will tell you what happened today, including the six zombies, Dagang and Fatty who died in vain, and members of the archaeological team who killed each other. The professor's expression is getting darker and his fists are getting tighter. Looking at the professor: "Professor, in the photo I showed you, the translation of the Tangut text is not just as simple as the Han people building the Western Xia royal tomb?"

I was just lying to the professor, but the professor looked up in amazement: "How do you know?"

"Guess." I suddenly felt disappointed: "Now it's confirmed.

"If this is the case, you old man will tell the story together." Lao Jiu hurriedly urged: "How long are we going to hide it? It is impossible for you to do what you want to do alone. This is almost dead!"

The professor looked at us and heaved a long sigh: "Lin Tianyi, I didn't mean to hide it from you on purpose, but I just think that the fewer people who know about it, the better, and it was not as clear before as it is now, and it was always just my guess. Now with the wine book, everything becomes a reality."

Tao Ran interrupted the professor: "Professor, don't say too much about emotion, we want to hear the key points."

The professor nodded heavily: "I know, let's start with my research on the history of the Xixia Kingdom. Lin Tianyi also knows that the tombs of the nine generations of kings are a difficult problem in the archaeological field. The puzzles in the hearts of scholars include me. Since I was addicted to it, I have spent a lot of time studying the culture and history of Xixia, including why Genghis Khan made two wills, and he must drive out all descendants of Xixia. The design is nine generations. I found the official history and the unofficial history. I came here many times to collect folk stories. I heard many folk stories. Slowly, I found that these two things are related. The local people believe that the Xixia Kingdom will continue Revive again, using the treasures taken away by a mysterious army back then, those treasures are very likely to be the legendary treasures of Heishui City."

Lao Jiu immediately glanced at me, we know the treasures of Heishui City better than anyone else, I cleared my throat: "Professor, can you explain it more clearly?"

"The royal tombs of the Nine Dynasties is a treasured place of geomantic omen, and it is a place prepared in advance." The professor said: "After being destroyed by the Mongols, they have been trying to revive the country, and the key is under the royal tombs, where we are now. "

"This dungeon seems to be enough to accommodate many residents. Every household is well-designed and equipped with weapons." I said, "The most important thing is that I didn't see the palace. It seems that everyone is equal here. Yes, there is no distinction between high and low."

The professor said excitedly: "That's right, this is the future city conceived by the King of Xixia. I believe this dungeon is the future that the King of Xixia wants to achieve, and it can avoid the pursuit of Mongolia. Everyone hides in the tomb of the king. Let’s enjoy life in peace, I don’t know why, this place has become an empty city, the Xixia people are missing, they may have exterminated their clan, or they may have been hunted down by Mongolia to extinction, the story inside is really too tempting.”

The professor couldn't stop at the beginning: "I was first inspired by an old man here. He told me that his great-grandfather once mentioned that when he was young, he heard crying near the royal tomb. They thought it was ghost soldiers howling. Many craftsmen and guards always died in the construction of royal tombs. After death, these people will become ghost soldiers and generals of royal tombs. The sound is the warning issued by the ghost soldiers."

We also heard a similar story from Xiaoma. The nearby villagers often heard howling ghost soldiers. The professor continued: "Now that I'm thinking, are there really ghost soldiers and ghost generals defending royal tombs in the world? Of course it was just nonsense at first, until I heard those howls myself..."

"Those wailing sounds are like those of tortured people, crying in extreme pain." The professor took a breath, and I quickly brought water, and after drinking the water, the professor immediately said: "I never I have never heard such a miserable cry, it seems to be screaming with all the strength in my body, it is completely forced out of my throat, I seem to hear them crying, don't go on, don't go on..."

For some reason, I thought of half of the faces of those six people. Under the half of the mask, no eyes could be seen, only flesh skin, without even a gap. There were obvious scars on half of the faces, one piece after another, I couldn't see a complete piece of good skin at all, and I suspected that they had been tortured during their lifetime, which coincided with the professor's idea.

However, the mere six people couldn't make a cry that could be heard by everyone outside...

The professor's narration is still going on: "After hearing that voice, I decided to continue to inspect the royal tomb, and I came here again and again. I became more and more interested in the source of the crying in the royal tomb, until one day, Lin Tianyi brought some I didn't know what the crying was about until the photo came over, Lin Tianyi, I didn't want to drag you into the water at that time, so I concealed something, you don't blame me, do you?"

"I knew that I would go into the water sooner or later. I would rather the professor tell me the truth earlier." I said seriously, "I am a curious person, just like the professor. What else is there in the photo except that the Han people designed the tombs of the Nine Kings for Xixia?" ?”

The professor let out a long sigh: "The Tangut text on the photo did not mention the name of this Han man, but besides mentioning that he designed the tombs of nine generations of kings for Xixia, he also mentioned one thing. According to a hexagram, it can be calculated that there are at most nine generations of Xixia, and they were eventually destroyed by those who came from the north. The people who came from the north here refer to Mongolia."

"Prediction." Meng Luo, who had been silent all this time, finally spoke: "This person is so powerful."

"Not only has the king been counted as nine generations, but also it has been determined that Xixia was destroyed by Mongolia." Tao Ran sighed, "I really want to know who he is."

"I didn't mention my name or surname. It's not easy to know." The professor said, "That's not the point. The point is that the Tangut text in the photo mentioned one thing. This person was found by Li Yuanhao. He didn't want to break the secret. Knowing what kind of favor you owe Li Yuanhao, tell Li Yuanhao that Western Xia will eventually be destroyed by those who come from the north, and the descendants will be adjusted to zero, and will eventually perish in the world!"

"It's such a sad result, but in fact there is still the last pure Xixia descendant in the desert," Tao Ran clasped his hands on his chest: "This person is not sure, well, he is more than half sure, already Very strong."

The professor's eyes lit up when he heard this: "There is the last pure blood of Xixia descendants in the desert? What's going on?"

"Professor, I'll explain this to you." I reminded, "But you have to finish first."

"Okay, okay, okay, Lin Tianyi, you must tell me about the desert." The professor said anxiously: "There must be some connection between here and there, for sure, okay, I just mentioned the Tangut text on the photo, then After a Han person told Li Yuanhao of this result, Li Yuanhao was naturally unwilling to accept it, but he had no doubts in the ability of this Han person, so he asked this person to find a way for him to preserve the Xixia bloodline."
