The tunnel hidden in the cave was obviously much smaller. Zhang Xuanchong was inside, feeling that his head couldn’t be lifted completely, he had to arch his waist to walk.
Following Zhang Xuan’s fast assault, a sound of footsteps came from the front. This was an echo from Zhang Xuan’s footsteps, which made Zhang Xuan understand that this cave was almost at its end.
Zhang Xuan slowed down and walked forward slowly. After passing a corner, Zhang Xuan saw a stone screen. In front of the screen, there was a three-legged bronze tripod. The bronze tripod was half a person tall and rusted.
The moment Zhang Xuan saw this bronze cauldron, he felt a familiar feeling in his heart. He slowly walked forward, not looking at the bronze cauldron, but subconsciously cast his gaze into the copper cauldron.
Above the bronze cauldron was empty. Inside the bronze cauldron, Zhang Xuan saw a bloody coat.
Zhang Xuan held the palm of his qi, put his hand into the copper cauldron, touched the bloody coat, and then slowly lifted it up.
This is a piece of clothing of an unknown age. The material is made of animal skins. If it were not for Zhang Xuan’s knowledge and knowledge, it would be hard to tell. This is a coat with blood on it. It has already dried out and melted with animal skins. As a whole, Zhang Xuan sniffed his nose and didn’t smell any peculiar smell. The smell had already disappeared in the course of time.
This animal skin jacket always gives Zhang Xuan an indescribable feeling. Moreover, a piece of animal skin can exist for such a long time without drying out. It is very unusual in itself. Zhang Xuan folded the clothes into his own. In his pocket, Zhang Xuan didn’t even look at that old and valuable bronze tripod. He turned and ran towards the stone hall to go to the next cave.
When Zhang Xuan left the mouth, this bronze tripod, which was enough to make archaeologists crazy, was once again quietly placed in the depths of the cave.
After Zhang Xuan came to the stone hall, he didn’t make a slight stop and rushed directly to the passage on the right.
When Zhang Xuan rushed into the right passage, a strong shock came from under Zhang Xuan’s feet. Zhang Xuan turned his head and saw that at the entrance of the cave on the right, a piece of rubble was falling from above, hitting the ground, The wall began to vibrate continuously, and a few seconds later, a huge boulder one-person-high suddenly fell, completely sealing the hole behind Zhang Xuan!
Zhang Xuan stood here, watched for two seconds, and then walked towards the depths of the cave for the first time.
Above the huge stone at the entrance of the cave that blocked Zhang Xuan, a large piece of quicksand slipped down and covered the huge stone. However, the left cave that Zhang Xuan had just entered did not change a little, but from the perspective of the stone hall, there were no longer two passages. There is only one.
Zhang Xuan’s retreat was completely blocked, and there was only one way forward. He was not too fast this time, but every step he took, he would look at the stone walls on both sides of his body. On these stone walls, full of murals were carved.
The murals are very obscure, but after some analysis, they can be understood.
Zhang Xuan watched all the way from the beginning, and it took more than half an hour before Zhang Xuan walked to the end of the passage on the right, and at the same time, he watched all the murals.
The whole mural is actually telling a very simple but hard to believe story, that is, a person, holding a long sword, slaughtered a real dragon!
Such a story of a warrior slaying a dragon, placed outside, is an ordinary legend, a little story of a child before going to bed, but the painting here seems a little weird.
Since when this cave existed, no one dare to say, but according to the depiction of this mural and the mysterious Loulan legend, here, at least thousands of people have entered here, and the entire cave is full A scent of decay, the stone walls on both sides have been cracked, some stones, under the long river of time, have turned into gravel and fell to the ground.
It is such a cave where no one has been in for a thousand years. There is a mural of a brave man slaying a dragon. Could it be that the legend of the dragon began thousands of years ago?
In other words, a thousand years ago, the dragon was not a legend!
Zhang Xuan’s gaze gradually moved away from the mural, and he looked forward to the end of the cave.
In general, the two caves are not big. After extending from the hall, there is a depth of about three kilometers. The really difficult section is the section in front of the hall, full of institutions.
If it was Zhang Xuan before he had comprehended Qi, he would definitely be troubled by those organs, but after comprehending Qi, those would be nothing to him.
Zhang Xuan suddenly thought of what Mai had said to him at the time. He said that he would let himself be refreshed with this task without being too nervous. Could it be that Mai had already known what the cave was like?
Doubts filled Zhang Xuan’s mind, and Zhang Xuan thought that after going back this time, he must ask Mai to ask him clearly. Now, let’s solve the immediate matter first.
In the front of the cave, there is a seat. The seat is very large, just like the place where the bandit king sits in the TV series. The huge stone chair is covered with animal skins, but this animal skin is not like Zhang Xuan. The one in the waist bag is still intact, but it has long been decayed. If you look carefully, you can still see some dead bugs from the edge of the animal skin.
Behind the seat, there is a red cloak. This cloak is also made of animal skin. It is made of the same material as the coat in Zhang Xuan’s waist bag. Zhang Xuan can’t tell which beast or cloak the skin comes from. The same was stained with blood above, and the blood stains penetrated into the animal skin and merged with the animal skin. On the right hand side of the stone seat under the animal skin, there is a broken sword leaning against, only the hilt and the sword body is less than 20 cm. .
Zhang Xuan walked over, squatted down, and observed. The hilt of the sword was made of bronze with patina stained on it, while the material of the sword body could not be distinguished by Zhang Xuan. It was neither iron nor steel. There are metals that have been seen.
Zhang Xuan stretched his hand to the hilt of the sword, and as soon as he picked up the broken sword, he heard a soft “crunch”, and Zhang Xuan secretly said a bad sound at the moment the soft sound was heard.
Seeing that, with the sound of that light sound, the entire cave began to shake violently. Large pieces of rubble fell from the top of Zhang Xuan’s head, and the stones hit the ground, splitting at once, splashing everywhere. .
The falling stones formed gaps one after another, and a large amount of quicksand slipped from the gaps and buried in the cave.
As the cave continued to shake, more stones fell, and the three-kilometer-long passage also collapsed. Quicksand continued to bury from above, and Zhang Xuan’s calf disappeared in a blink of an eye.
Zhang Xuan didn’t hesitate anymore, took the broken sword in one hand, and the red cloak above the stone seat in the other. Then, the whole person leaped vigorously and rushed upward.
In the desolate desert, endless sights, full of yellow sand, full of desolation.
Suddenly, a head emerged from the yellow sand.
