Golden Forbidden Land: I am at the highest level, exploring the secrets of immortality
Chapter 55: Digging at midnight
"What are you looking at? Let's go!"
The few people holding torches behind us were obviously responsible for the group of people being imprisoned. It must have been midnight at this time. What on earth were they doing by bringing us here underground?
Looking at these criss-crossing passages, it is impossible for them to dig them out, so there is only one question. This was once an underground ruins that existed a long time ago, but as to whether it is an ancient ruin, it is difficult to analyze. , it may also be a masterpiece of border exploration at that time, or it may involve some wars.
Finally, we were driven directly to an open space.
Here, it's like a deep well.
"You're not going to let us go down into the mine, are you?"
Shan Mouse doubted.
"It's impossible... I have studied the geological prospecting here, and there is no test showing that there are any minerals or oil in the ground. The geological conditions here are very special."
Dali said.
Soon, a wide space appeared in front of them, and those few people stopped and then asked the rest of the people to start working.
This space is almost completely excavated. There are some large rocks and bottles and cans everywhere on the ground, but they are about to turn into mud.
"Hahaha... us?"
Shan Mouzi looked at the bald head at this time.
"Your... matters haven't come yet, how can I let you do this work, right?"
The bald man looked sinister.
"Hurry the fuck up."
Beside, someone was waving a whip.
Those who were wearing shackles each had an extra digging tool in their hands. Young and old, they continued digging in all directions.
The bald man among them seemed to have some kind of drawing in his hand. After looking at it for a long time, he didn't seem to understand it and seemed to be hesitating about something.
"What kind of drawings did your mother give you?" The bald head seemed a little impatient. He asked a few people next to him to take a look, but all of them knew little about it and didn't dare to express their anger.
"I can help you take a look."
I said, "At least, we are still students in this area."
I am referring, of course, to archeology.
"I see you can't do any tricks."
The bald man handed the drawing to us. I took it over and took a look. It should be a parchment drawing, but... it only drew the underground part. I don’t know where the above-ground part is. I can only judge the simple east, west, north, and south. four directions. The specific rocks and sediment underground are clearly recorded.
"In the middle of the drawing, there is a black dot target."
I stared at a few big words next to me, "Destination!"
There are no notes at all on the rest of the drawing, except that where we are now is on the drawing. If that's right, Baldhead doesn't know the secret and is just doing things for others.
"Wrong direction."
I pointed to the purpose on the drawing and reminded them, "According to the instructions on this map, we should dig to the west now and not to the front, otherwise we will deviate from the target."
"His grandma's!"
The bald man touched his greasy head with a sad look on his face, "Go...this way!"
Soon, those people turned around.
"How long do you think it will take to dig here?" Baldhead asked, staring at us.
"It's a pity that you dug in the wrong direction, otherwise it could be done tonight. According to this progress, it will take at least a week or so." I analyzed.
"One week, I can't wait that long."
He seemed to be deep in thought, with a trace of fear evident on his face.
Soon, the bald man and the rest of the people walked to the other side, seeming to be discussing something. Judging from their dark colors, they seemed to be very anxious about this matter.
I was about to find a place to sit down. When I looked at the debris on the ground, I guessed that these people were digging some ancient tomb, right?
"It's Huaya pattern."
Shanmao suddenly picked up the fragment on the ground. It was a piece of porcelain with some very special patterns on it. It is almost rare to see it in the Central Plains area. "This is something that the ancient city of Guazhou paid tribute to the emperor. It's a pity..."
"Are you saying that this is probably the ruins of the ancient city of Guazhou?"
I was a little surprised.
"What's this……"
Suddenly, I saw something else on the ground, it was...
"Stele!"
However, this stele was the same size as an ordinary stone, so they regarded it as a pile of stones piled on the ground during troubled times. The stele was torn into pieces, but after wiping off the dirt and dust on it, some writings could still be vaguely seen.
"Let me see..."
The four of us watched and translated the meaning conveyed by those text locks in our minds.
Legend has it that in ancient times, Guazhou moved to many places due to climate reasons. At the original location, they built a city. This place can be regarded as an excellent military strategy that is easy to defend but difficult to attack. It played a great role in the war at that time. role. At that time, there were constant wars and it was a turbulent era. Enemies outside the customs could not attack Guazhou.
This is the only stronghold. If you want to invade the Central Plains, you must pass through Guazhou.
Otherwise, we would have to cross the desolate sandy land, and we might even get lost. Not to mention the conditions at the time, even now no one wants to cross the entire Northwest.
However, one night, as usual, the city defenders patrolled around and lit fireworks on the city wall.
That night, I don’t know what happened? The whole area outside the Great Wall seemed to be a little unusual. Yellow sand swept across the westernmost part. History recorded that storm, but it did not blow into Guazhou City. It was just that the soldiers guarding the city witnessed that strange scene with their own eyes...
