At this time, Old Professor Zhou also nodded, "That's right, there is only one and only one for thousands of years, but it is not here. This should be the second one we found."

Ye Xiao nodded: "Yes, during the Liao Dynasty, Emperor Yelu had already been mummified."

Ye Xiao explained in a deep voice: "That piece is not called a mummy, but a mummy. According to legend, Yelu Deguang contracted a disease on the way to fight against the Central Plains and died. When the news of his death reached the capital of the Liao Kingdom, the Empress Dowager Yelu said a word, life If you want to see people, if you die, you need to see corpses, but if the corpses are brought back after a long journey, they may have already rotted, so there is no other way but to come up with an idea to make the emperor into a corpse."

"At that time, nomads in the north liked to eat beef and mutton. For the convenience of preservation, they smeared it with brine and seasoned it to turn it into dried meat that would never rot, which is equivalent to the cured meat of our Central Plains people."

"Originally, it was impossible to compare the emperor with animals, but it was summer at that time, and the only way to preserve the corpse was to do so. However, if the body was pickled with salt, the water would be lost, and the corpse would be completely changed."

"It's the same when you look at this corpse, the facial features are a little deformed."

Hearing Ye Xiao's explanation like this, everyone was surprised.

"With more knowledge, it turns out that it can become like this!"

"Isn't this just turning Emperor Yelu into bacon and shipping it back?"

"Yelu Deguang probably didn't think that he would turn into bacon after death!"

"Damn, I can never look directly at those hams!"

"I won't eat bacon anymore, it's hard to look straight! When I think of those bacon, I think of this, it's disgusting."

"I said I've heard of it, but I never expected to see it in this place! Why do you think this person was transformed into this appearance?"

"I guess it's because he died in another place that he was brought back."

Ye Xiao continued: "Looking at his clothes, he should also be an important minister of Xixia, maybe he is a member of the royal family."

Hearing what they said, everyone nodded and was about to take a closer look, when another sound came from outside, a bang!

Everyone was so frightened that they panicked, and immediately picked up the steel pipe and pointed it outside. At this time, Ye Xiao returned, and after rushing out with the black gold ancient knife, he saw that there was nothing outside, so he shook his head and waved to them: "Leave as soon as possible! Here It's nothing, if we don't leave, maybe we will be trapped here to death."

Hearing what Ye Xiao said, everyone panicked and walked out with Ye Xiao. After reaching the corridor, everyone continued to move forward.

The reason why Ye Xiao let them go out was also because he was afraid that something would change here. If something happened and they were trapped inside, there would be no way out, only a dead end.

But at this time, the whole corridor had changed, it was not the way they had come here at all, and it was already too late when Ye Xiao found out.

He touched the stone bricks and suddenly turned around to look behind him. When everyone saw him, they couldn't help but feel their hearts tighten.

Chapter 367 The Strange Tree Nourished by Human Body

"What happened to Xiaoye?"

Ye Xiao shook his head, "It's nothing, I feel that the whole corridor is changing, this tomb is alive."

Hearing Ye Xiao say this, everyone became a little scared.

"Xiaoye, don't tell us that we are already in the wolf's mouth!"

Ye Xiao shook his head, "What I'm talking about is not because this tomb passage is a Gu worm, but because there is a mechanism in operation, and we may have become a part of the mechanism."

Hearing what Ye Xiao said, everyone still didn't quite understand. Ye Xiao continued to explain, "We may have stepped into a huge institution since we came in."

"Just now I've been thinking that we haven't found any other tombs since we came in from the tunnel, but where did those mummies come from?" "Because I heard the sound just now, it may be the sound after the mechanism is operating."

Hearing Ye Xiao's explanation, everyone suddenly realized, but at the same time they also became a little scared.

"If that's the case, wouldn't we not be able to find our way back, or our exit?"

Ye Xiao nodded, "It's possible. But I think there must be rules to follow, otherwise it would never be like this."

"Li Yuanhao must have had blueprints when he built this ancient tomb. We just can't see the scan results now, but if we can see them, we will be able to find the rules. Don't worry about it now, let's follow the corridor first. Go forward!" Hearing Ye Xiao say this, everyone didn't know what to do, but there was no other way at this time, they could only go with him as Ye Xiao said.

Ye Xiao, who was silent, didn't take it seriously, but the more he walked inside, the quieter and more terrifying he felt.Seeing this scene now, everyone felt a little unbelievable. It was true that everything around them had changed as Ye Xiao said.

When they first came in, there were vines, but now the vines were gone, and after walking for a section, vines appeared around them again, which made people wonder if they were going around in circles.

"We won't meet some ghost hitting the wall, right? Why do I feel like I'm going around in circles?"

"That's right, I feel the same way, it's really not good!"

"Yeah, maybe I'm really trapped here to death."

The more people talked, the more scared they became.

Ye Xiao shook his head, "No, this is equivalent to the Rubik's Cube. There will be vines everywhere. After the Rubik's Cube is disrupted, some will not be there. That's why it's like this. Don't worry."

Hearing Ye Xiao say this, everyone can rest assured, but fortunately, they started walking around the same level, as long as they can find the right way, they can find the main tomb.

Unexpectedly, Li Yuanhao was so weird that he set up a mechanism here, which made them panic.

And the netizens in the screen also felt a little incredible.

"What kind of brain is this Li Yuanhao to be so smart?"

"It's not that Li Yuanhao's brains are craftsmen and designers who built ancient tombs. Their brains are smart. Do you think Li Yuanhao can think of so much? It can only be said that craftsmen are masters!"

"Do you think it was also the inspiration given to him by the mother worm?"

"I don't know if it's a worm, but I have to say that this craftsman does have a brush!"

Everyone was talking about craftsmen and builders of ancient tombs, but Ye Xiao was thinking, if he couldn't find an exit, would he keep going around in circles like this?

But at the next step, he understood that instead of turning in circles, they had already walked down the road in a detour, because the floor just now had been completely gone.

Ye Xiao has already discovered the pattern, looking at the stone wall next to him, the corners of his mouth curled up, and he walked straight down.Here is another step.

This time Ye Xiao didn't even look at it and went straight down.

This made everyone feel a little strange. When they first came in, the steps were going up, but now they are going down. It is not clear which direction they are going, but it is absolutely right to follow Ye Xiao. Everyone followed In, Ye Xiao didn't say much, fearing that if they said too much, they would feel panic and vomit their real troubles.

At this time, Professor Zhou also seemed to have discovered some clues, he secretly pulled Ye Xiao and asked, "Xiaoye, have you discovered the pattern?"

Ye Xiao nodded, "There are indeed rules to follow. We are always going down now, but everything remains the same, and we are still in this big ancient tomb."

Hearing this, Old Professor Zhou was also relieved. He also felt this way before, but he was not sure. Now that he heard Ye Xiao say this, he finally breathed a sigh of relief. It seems that there is still hope.

As long as you find the rules, you can go out.

What he fears the most is that he can't find the rules to be trapped in the ancient tomb, and without the support of the garrison, he can only die here in the end. He doesn't want to be a mummy.

Old Professor Zhou took a deep breath, and seeing Ye Xiao's figure in front of him paused, he couldn't help feeling tense, every time Ye Xiao did something, he always felt uneasy and scared.

Now that Ye Xiao stopped, he subconsciously felt that something had happened, then Ye Xiao waved his hand, took out the flashlight to take a photo, and then walked out.Everyone's heart sank when they saw this, and when they came down and saw Ye Xiao continue to move forward, they hurriedly followed, only to find that there were vines again when they got to the front, and there was nothing else around, only a huge towering ancient tree!

Everyone stared at the open space and couldn't help being stunned.

This tree was taller than the big banyan tree they had seen before, reaching to the sky.

"My darling, what kind of tree is this? It's so tall, it shouldn't reach the ground!"

"Professor Fang came over to have a look, do you know him?"

"I guess I don't know them, they are all new species."

Professor Fang couldn't see anything, because the tree was covered with vines, and the trunk had been entangled so tightly that it couldn't be seen at all.

Even the leaves are entangled by vines, densely packed.

The drop was more than 30 meters, and the crown of the tree above could not be seen. Even Ye Xiao felt a little surprised when he saw this scene. The tree was really too big, tall and strong, and it took three or four people to hug it.

It’s fine if there are plants in the ancient tomb. Ye Xiao never thought that the plants could grow so luxuriantly, and unlike Genghis Khan’s coffin in the ancient tomb, the trees embedded in the trees all withered.

Now the tree is growing luxuriantly and seems to be full of vitality. It is continuing to grow, but without sunlight, how can it absorb nutrients?He subconsciously took out the black gold ancient knife tree, and inserted it hard into the root of the tree!

This scene shocked everyone!

But at this time, it was too late to stop Ye Xiao and had already pulled out the knife.

Without blood, he took the Luoyang shovel again and started digging.

Old Professor Zhou looked puzzled. After Ye Xiao quickly dug a few times, he saw the bones in the soil, and finally found the clue.

"You see, this tree is nourished by the human body."

Chapter 368 Ancient Tree Jade Coffin

Hearing Ye Xiao's words, everyone was shocked and gathered around.

All that was visible to the naked eye under the tree were bones.

Zhang Rulong and the others took the Luoyang shovel, and quickly dug next to it. After a while, there was a pile of soil next to the tree roots, and all the dug out were bones.

And the blood-soaked soil surprised everyone immediately.

Everyone looked at each other, not knowing what to say, and the netizens in the screen room were already boiling.

"Damn it, is this the legendary method of gathering yin and nourishing yang? This tree won't become a spirit!"

"Stop talking, burn it!"

"It looks weird and cautious, can this tree eat people?"

"Don't talk nonsense, we are firm materialists."

"Who the hell did this!"

"Does this need to be said? It must be Li Yuanhao. As the founding emperor, he never expected to be so bloodthirsty and bloodthirsty. It is too cruel!"

"Which emperor has never killed anyone? As the saying goes, once he succeeds, his bones will be destroyed, let alone the founding emperor who can sit in this position, he will not be too kind."

"But why use flesh and blood to nourish the trees here?"

"Do you need to ask? You didn't see that this is an ancient tomb, and there is no sunlight. What can you use to grow such a tall tree? It must be human blood. Didn't you say that you need fertilizer when growing vegetables? This kind of tree Also pay attention to fertilizer, human blood is the fertilizer of these big trees!"

This discussion immediately made everyone sick and wanted to vomit.

As soon as they saw the picture on the screen, they swiped the screen one after another.

At this moment, the members of the archaeological team couldn't help being dumbfounded when they saw this scene. It was the first time they saw it, but what I had to say was that it was completely different from what they had seen before.

If it is said that it was a sacrificial pit before, then what is the significance of using people to nourish this tree?

Thinking of this, Professor Fang took a step forward to examine it carefully. This tree is no different from ordinary trees, and the bark is also rough to the touch. Several people walked around and found no difference.

If there is something to be found, it is probably that the tree is too tall and very strong, and even the leaves are so lush that it is almost impossible to see the end.

The wide canopy covered the entire top of the tomb, and the end could not be seen at a glance.

This made everyone have an invisible pressure, as if those tree crowns were about to overwhelm and bury them all here.

When they saw this, everyone was a little panicked and retreated one after another.

Especially in the root part of the tree, more and more bones were dug out.

Professor Zhou Lao, Professor Ou and others began to piece together the bones, and after a while, seven or eight corpses were assembled.
