Chapter 415 Tomb Keeper?Tied up!
"Kids, our job is to look for history." Lin Ran knelt down, took out a piece of candy from his pocket, and handed it to the little boy.
Immediately, an older boy ran over, snatched the candy from the little boy's hand, threw it on the ground, and scolded Lin Ran.
Lin Ran was also confused now. Fortunately, the village chief happened to pass by at this time.
He ran over to relieve the two of them, and the herdsmen left.
Lin Ran asked: "Did I also break a taboo by giving him candy?"
Now that he is here, of course he wants to know more about the local customs and customs.
The village chief laughed and said: "That's not the case, he just thinks the candy you gave him is poison."
The locals are very wary of outsiders, and only children are innocent.
The village chief said: "It seems that you want to go up the mountain. This snowy mountain remains unchanged all year round. You need to prepare thick clothes when going up the mountain. The road is slippery, so it is best to wear spiked shoes."
He glanced at the holy tower on the mountain and advised: "I know that many outsiders are interested in the holy tower. I advise you to give up."
Then, he left with his hands behind his back.
Sure enough, as Liu Jingfeng saw, the village chief was the most enlightened person in the village.
If other villagers knew that they were going to the Holy Tower, they might not be driven out of the village directly.
Since the village chief has not objected yet and just suggested giving up, it is empty words to them.
The two began to climb the mountain.
The foot of the mountain is not covered with snow all year round like the top of the mountain, and the road is not wet. On the contrary, it seems very dry.
This scene reminded Lin Ran of climbing Jade Dragon Snow Mountain in his previous life.
At the foot of the mountain, there are businesses selling oxygen tanks directly.
This is a plateau area, so climbing up without professional training is indeed dangerous.
The mountain is estimated to be 2000 meters high, and the Holy Tower is near the mountainside. Climbing up 1000 meters is enough. There should be no danger of hypoxia.
At the foot of the mountain, the forest is still vaguely visible, but as you climb up, the trees become sparser and sparse, and the temperature gradually drops. As far as the eye can see, there are only a few tenacious and tall pine trees.
You can also see the looming small ice crystals on the branches of the pine trees, which look a bit delicate.
Underfoot are clumps of bushes.
Huang Hao was almost bitten by a strange insect, but luckily Lin Ran caught him in time.
"This mountain is indeed full of dangers." Lin Ran thought to himself. People say that humans are powerful, but in fact arthropods are the kings of land. Even in high latitudes, there are a large number of poisonous insects.
Along the way, in addition to cockroaches and scorpions, they saw a particularly large flying insect that looked very dangerous.
And in Lin Ran's memory, he had never seen such an insect before.
Finally we are almost at the Holy Tower.
The two of them slowed down because they were unfamiliar with the surrounding environment.
Along the way, there are many graves on the road.
But they all seemed to be ordinary people's graves. They were not large and of no value to be excavated.
Huang Hao scouted around the Holy Tower and said: "This area is currently blocked. The surrounding vegetation is obviously carefully designed. Based on my experience, there must be traps inside.
Good guy, in order to prevent outsiders from approaching the Holy Mountain, a trap was set up.
After receiving the warning, Lin Ran patiently squatted down and watched carefully.
Sure enough, the colors of the shrubs are a little different, and if you step on those piles of shrubs, they will definitely collapse.
"Are you sure?" Huang Hao is not good at cracking traps. The treasure that can crack the trap is still lying in the tent.
"Try your best." Although Lin Ran didn't know what kind of traps the locals would set, he should be able to find traps that were not particularly deep with his carefulness.
I don't know whether it was luck or strength, but they passed through the trap area without any danger and came to the bottom of the holy tower.
There was a stone tablet in front of the holy tower with strange words engraved on it, and Lin Ran couldn't recognize it.
Below the holy tower, there is a square stone block measuring four square meters.
If you guessed it correctly, that is the entrance to the Holy Tower!
"I didn't expect the entrance to be in such an obvious place." Huang Hao was pleasantly surprised. Finding the entrance to the mausoleum was half the battle.
"It's not too early to be happy." Lin Ran came to the stone. The stone seemed to have been integrated into the mausoleum and was not easy to open.
Huang Hao also lamented: "With such an obvious tower and such an obvious entrance, it is unbelievable that this mausoleum has not been stolen."
"That's normal." Lin Ran searched near the stone tower, trying to find other entrances.
Because there is a Tibetan text written on this stone, and the last word means "death", which is obviously a curse.
There is radiation in the pyramid. The first batch of archaeologists who entered the pyramid were more or less infected with serious diseases and passed away. Therefore, the legend of the curse of the pyramid was left behind.
Does this nine-story demon tower have the same effect?
Lin Ran didn't have a measuring instrument in his hand. Only A Ming had an air detection instrument, and he didn't know if he could detect any clues.
While observing the surrounding situation, he explained to Huang Hao: "Why do you think there is a village just near the Holy Tower?"
"Is there anything special about it?"
"Of course, their ancestors may have been the guards guarding this tomb. However, they later forgot their ancestors' instructions and it became a story about mountain gods."
Although it was just a guess, what Lin Ran said made some sense, and Huang Hao nodded.
"Yes, with someone guarding this place, it is indeed impossible for outsiders to steal it."
"It's time for us to leave." Lin Ran thought to himself. Although the village chief seemed liberal, he grew up with a traditional education after all.
After staying in the mountains for so long, the village chief will definitely become suspicious.
Moreover, in his memory, someone had mentioned the herdsmen who would patrol near the holy tower.
The moment he thought about it, two feather arrows passed by his eyes and were stuck straight in the tree.
Lin Ran and Huang Hao were so frightened that they did not dare to move.
Then, a strong bear-like man appeared in front of them, grunting.
He pointed fingers at them and looked very angry.
Lin Ran couldn't understand what he was talking about, but he raised his hand high to indicate that he had no weapons, and with a smile, told him that he had no ill intentions.
The man slowly approached them with his bow and arrow raised, and made a gesture for them to squat down.
Lin Ran and Huang Hao immediately followed suit.
Just like that, they were tied up by the man and taken back to the village.
He sent the two of them directly to the village chief's house. At this time, the village chief was drinking tea at home. When he saw the holy mountain guard appearing, he immediately understood what had happened.
The man looked very angry, but the village chief told him not to press forward with the matter.
After the man left, the village chief helped them untie the rope.
"I told you not to get close to the Holy Tower. I have already explained to him that you just came close because you were curious." The village chief said while untying the rope, "But next time, I won't be able to protect you!"
