Chapter 383 Seven-Star Bamboo Coffin

 At this time, in the stone chamber behind the golden bamboo door, dozens of stone statues with human faces were dismantled to pieces.

There are thirty-six stone statues with human faces in total, distributed in different locations in the stone chamber.

There are still poisonous crossbow arrows hidden inside it. As long as the person entering the stone chamber steps on the floor and touches the sensor device, the stone statue with a human face will twist its direction and shoot the crossbow arrows.

However, this kind of mechanism does not pose much of a threat to the Blue Dragon Squad and the White Tiger Squad.

In less than half an hour, the White Tiger Team took the lead in dismantling most of the stone statues with human faces.

"The White Tiger Team is slightly better this time." Qi Xiaohei announced coldly.

"Master Hei, if you win, you win. What does it mean to be slightly better?" Bai Yi said angrily.

At this time, Bai Er dissuaded in a low voice: "Bai Yi, please stop saying a few words. The Qinglong team is missing one person, and we can't win with force."

"Shit, it's not our fault that they have so few people."

Qi Xiaohei's face was slightly cold, this Bai Yi really likes to be competitive.

However, he likes to discipline Pitou, because he used to be Pitou too.

Bai Er's face turned bitter. Looking at Master Hei's expression, he knew that when they got out, they, the White Tiger Team, would suffer.

At this time, Ye Bai strode in with Xuan Yi, Zhu Yi and others.

"The Third Master has also come down. Isn't the Third Master in Changsha?"

"We've been down there for so long, how can the third master sit still?"

The members of the Blue Dragon Team and the White Tiger Team were a little surprised at first, but then quickly joined in.

"Hello, Third Master!"

Ye Bai nodded: "What were you discussing just now? It was quite lively?"

Qing Yi stepped forward and said: "Third Master, the White Tiger Team just defeated us, and Master Hei rewarded us with ten contribution points."

"It's a good thing, it's rare for the White Tiger Team to win."

Bai Yi glanced at Ye Bai resentfully. He couldn't bear it when others said they were weak, but it was the third master who said that, so that was another matter.

For Ye Bai, it is a good thing that the two teams are competitive. As for the conflicts that arise during the competition, he does not want to care about them. These are Qi Xiaohei's business.

Ye Bai glanced at his watch, estimated the remaining distance and said, "It's too late. Let's rest here for the night and start again tomorrow morning."

"Yes."

Everyone responded and took out the heating equipment and food in their backpacks, and each of the four teams started cooking.

Ye Bai took Qi Xiaohei to the Xuanwu team, and he and Xuan Yi and Xuan Er ate together, and of course got the rain and dew, and fought against the autumn wind among the other three teams.

In the evening, Zhu Yi and Xuan Yi worked together to study the bamboo pieces that Ye Bai took out from the black bamboo forest.

According to them, the above text does explain the mystery of the operation of the maze, but a single text has multiple meanings, like an upgraded version of classical Chinese, which is difficult to translate.

Even if there are Yelang Kingdom literature comparison references, it will take at least a month to translate them all.

In this way, Ye Bai threw the bamboo piece to the two of them and asked them to study it slowly.

After a night, everyone recharged their batteries and set off again.

After the stone chamber, there are three corridors leading to different directions. Ye Bai learned from the system map that all three corridors can reach the final main tomb chamber, but the time required is different.

The middle corridor is the shortest and saves the most time, so Ye Bai chose the middle corridor.

This corridor is paved with stone floors, and the walls on both sides are engraved with carvings and scenes of sacrifices from the Yelang Kingdom.

It seemed like a group of people wearing strange clothes were dancing around a bamboo, and then the slave was pressed up and nailed to the bamboo.

The scene was a bit bloody. It seems that human sacrifice was once popular in Yelang Kingdom.

Zhu Si of the Suzaku Team held a bulky camera and took pictures one by one of the things recorded on the wall.

There is a sinking barbed trap in this corridor. Qing Yi and Bai stepped forward in pairs and worked together to quickly dismantle the trap.

The corridor is not long, only about a hundred meters.

At the end of the corridor is a black bamboo door with a birth chart of the Bamboo King carved on it.

The Bamboo King is Yelang King.

Legend has it that the King of Bamboo was born in Dunshui and was born in Sanjie Dazhu.

There are many records in history books. It was first seen in "Huayang Guozhi". Fan Ye quoted this story when he revised "Book of the Later Han".

The picture of the Bamboo King's birth in front of them was so different from the historical records that everyone was so fascinated by it that no one opened the bamboo door first.

Zhu Yi called Zhu Sidao: "Fourth sister, take more pictures of this picture. Madam likes to study this the most."

Ye Bai glanced at her and said nothing.

Then, Qi Xiaohei stepped forward, put his ear to the side of the bamboo door, and gently pushed the door open.

A wave of cool air came.

But there was no abnormal sound from the mechanism, and the air was fine. Qi Xiaohei made a gesture to indicate safety.

Two teams, Qinglong and White Tiger, one on the left and one on the right, sneaked into the tomb.

They placed two strong flashlights on the wall to illuminate the dark stone room.

There are seven black bamboo coffins placed in the round-vaulted stone chamber. There are earthen coffins outside the coffins, connected by dovetail locks, which look like seven-star bamboo coffins.

The so-called seven-star coffin is actually a kind of coffin made of a kind of three-component soil that is rammed around the coffin by special means. It is not common.

Ye Bai frowned slightly. The seven-star coffin was indeed a funeral method for the royal family in ancient times, but it was just a funeral custom in the Central Plains.

It is impossible for the Yelang Kingdom to be buried in this way.

Moreover, this stone chamber is not the main tomb chamber, so why did the seven-star coffin suddenly appear?

You know, it is said that the seven-star coffin is very evil and has an unknown meaning. Tomb robbers will often encounter strange things when they encounter the seven-star coffin.

Speaking of which, this was Ye Bai's first encounter with the Seven-Star Coffin.

At this time, Xuan Yi found the southeast corner and obediently lit a candle.

"Third Master, do you want to open the coffin?"

"Put out the candle, don't open it."

Ye Bai has a rule when going to the tomb. Unless it is a coffin containing a blessing bag or a treasure box, he will not open it easily.

The seven-star coffin in front of us is set up in the middle of the road. At first glance, it is a means of blocking the road set by the owner of the tomb.

Who knows what the hell will pop up when you open it?

Although Ye Bai has nothing to fear, as long as he can avoid causing trouble, he will not cause trouble. This is Ye Bai's principle of settling down and settling down.

Xuan Yi was stunned for a moment, not daring to ask why. He stepped forward and blew out the candle again and stuffed it back into his backpack.

Ye Bai walked straight past the seven-star bamboo coffin, and everyone followed him.

Qi Xiaohei warned: "Be careful, don't step on the mechanism."

After leaving the stone chamber where the Seven-Star Bamboo Coffin was located, Qingyi approached Xiao Hei and said, "Master Hei, the temperature in the stone chamber just now was too low, which was a bit unusual."

"Don't worry about it, Third Master has his own ideas."

The road after that is a long corridor. Every few steps on both sides of the corridor, there are carvings of stone birds with unusually long necks.

The traps left by the designers this time were quicksand and poisonous gas.

When the mechanism is triggered, the beak on the left side will spit out poisonous gas, and the beak on the right side will spit out quicksand.

If an ordinary tomb robber encounters such an unsolvable mechanism, he can only wait for death.

But the Human Resources Department responded quickly, and the agency was triggered as soon as possible.

Before Ye Bai could take action, Qing Yi, who was wearing a gas mask, smashed a wall and found the mechanism center.
