Chapter 478 The Second Cave
Even if the surrounding walls were compacted, how did the roof do that? When the Yulin soldiers were about one meter away from the deep pit, the top of the hole was stepped on, and everyone fell into it.
There was a stone statue in the cave, which was a young man wearing armor. After Wang Quan saw the stone statue clearly, he became more gloomy and seemed very angry.
"Looks like you know it?"
Wang Quan: "This is the prince's statue. The king has already ordered it to be destroyed. I didn't expect that there is still one here. But how could it be buried in such a place? How did you find this pit?"
"It's similar to some earth exploration techniques."
Wang Quan: "You kid really has some skills, but this matter is now troublesome. At the beginning, the national teacher once said that the prince's statue must not be left. If it is left, it will be a curse. So the national teacher destroyed all the statues. In the end, ordinary people's memories of the statues were blurred."
Ye Tingbai was reserved about these statements. He couldn't help but believe them. After all, the rules of the world are the same.
Secondary personality: "These soils are dry and hard, it must have been there for a long time, but the buildings on the ground are too new, it seems that they were built not long ago."
Ye Tingbai took out the sonar detection again. He wanted to see if there was a soil boundary line below. If there was, then this hole could be explained by physical means. As long as the pit is dug deep enough and then backfilled uniformly, this kind of hole can be created.
If a large enough ice block is placed in the hole during the backfilling process, and then the soil is compacted on top of the ice block, this kind of weird secret room can be created.
The detection results surprised him a little. There was still no soil boundary line 30 meters below, but Ye Tingbai just didn't believe it.
"Keep digging, call me after digging ten meters down~"
Rudy didn't complain at all this time, because Ye Tingbai was right. There was something underground, and the things dug out were so valuable, it was indeed their job to do it.
Wang Quan: "Do you think there are more down there?"
Ye Tingbai: "I don't know, but I think there are. Let's go ask these villagers."
If these houses were built later, what about the county annals of Anning County? The county magistrate clearly said that the history of Ping'an County has been hundreds of years.
But after a series of interrogations, Ye Tingbai found that these people were dumbfounded, even if he gave them enough food.
"Aba~Aba~Don't fight anymore!"
These people often say some strange words, most of which are related to fighting, but their muscles and bones are weak, and they don't look like people who have served in the army. But the question is, if all the people in Ping'an Village look like this, what's the matter with the hanging corpse?
How did that person escape the fate of being infected?
And Ping'an Village has been sealed off, and no one can go out.
Ye Tingbai turned to look at Wang Quan: "Where did the prince disappear?"
"In the Qingquan Valley, a hundred miles away."
Ludi: "Sir, we have dug another ten meters!"
Ye Tingbai ran back to the deep pit and probed again. This time he finally showed a satisfied smile. He finally found what he wanted, a clear soil boundary, and a whole layer of human bones.
Ye Tingbai: "Keep digging, we will be there in another twenty-five meters."
The group finally heard the target and was full of energy. In less than twenty minutes, they dug what Ye Tingbai wanted to see, a hundred corpses, and they were wearing golden armor.
Wang Quan: "This armor is the prince's personal guard, but the depth of this pit is almost sixty meters, it's really weird."
The prince's personal guard and the prince's statue are obviously not things that should appear at the same time. The emperor ordered the construction of the temple one year after the prince's accident. There should be at least a year difference between the statue and the bones.
Ye Tingbai: "This is what they want to show us. This land should have been dug up ten years ago, and then these bodies were buried here, but this statue is a bit inexplicable.
The soil does not have any obvious boundaries, which may mean that they have dug up this place twice."
Wang Quan: "I will report this matter to His Majesty immediately. Do you want to go back with me or continue to investigate?"
Swish~
An arrow shot from a distance, with a note tied to it. Wang Quan immediately chased in the direction of the arrow, and Ye Tingbai picked up the note. If Wang Quan couldn't catch up, he would not be used.
"Three hundred miles west, there is a mass grave in the valley."
After a while, Wang Quan ran back with a crossbow.
Wang Quan: "They didn't catch him. It must be a launching mechanism that was set up long ago. They were tricked."
Ye Tingbai: "This is not good. You caught him right away. How can they give me clues? By the way, you'd better find a master of metaphysics, feng shui, and formations. I'm not good at this."
Wang Quan: "Okay, I'll find him for you. I'll send someone back to deliver the message. I'll go to the next place with you."
Another two hours of raiding, the speed of the Yulin Army was indeed not slow. They found the valley on the note. There was no grass and it was full of bones, but most of them were animal bones. There were few people.
Ye Tingbai circled the valley, but this time he didn't scan anything underground. Instead, he found a hollow cave on the mountain. There was no passage, as if it appeared out of thin air. According to the scan results, there was also a statue in the cave.
If the soil can be dug, how was the mountain made?
Ye Tingbai suddenly found himself a bit closed-minded. He always used his original worldview to measure the world, which would definitely not produce any results.
"Lord Wang, can you hollow out the mountain and put things in it without destroying it?"
Wang Quan: "It depends on what it is. If it is just a small object, it is not difficult, but if it is a large object like the prince's statue, one person can't do it."
Ye Tingbai: "Now if I say that there is a cave in this stone mountain in front of you, and there is a statue inside, how do you think they did it?"
Wang Quan was shocked: "Which one are you talking about? This mountain? This kind of material can't be done by human power, only large-scale refining arrays can be used.
You have already started to smash the mountain!"
After chatting for a while, Ye Tingbai realized that there are alchemists in this world who can reorganize and recreate various things. It is a profession that burns money and makes money.
But the mountain is too big, so if you want to make a statue directly in the mountain, you need the cooperation of many alchemists.
The Yulin Army had just finished digging the pit and were then sent to chisel the mountain. They were so miserable that they couldn't figure out why they had ended up in this situation.
