Chapter 889: Immortal Flame
Zhou Xingnan was very excited. I see that some of you don't believe it. So he explained: "I'm only judging subjectively now. But I dare to emphasize. This is definitely a fuel such as crude oil.
Think about it. Thousands of years of underground palaces. This lamp oil has been burning for thousands of years. Only the supply is not cut off. An endless supply of underground crude oil. in order to sustain it forever.
It's just a matter of how the ancients did it. It remains to be studied. You see. There's a copper pipe that goes all the way underground. The principle of air compression is used to obtain underground crude oil. Look here."
Zhou Xingnan finished speaking. Pointing to a pair of bronze cranes next to it for everyone to see.
The crane casting is lifelike. It has remained intact for thousands of years. Not only that. Or the brilliance is still there. There is only some shallow patina on the part of the body on the base.
Zhou Xingnan stepped forward and groped a few times on the crane's wings. I don't want this crane's wings to be alive.
Slowly open. There are some Seiko gears visible inside. Not only that. The gears are still running. The top is shiny with oil. There is not the slightest trace of rust.
Observe carefully. The gears are also all made of copper. It's as if the gears are driving a few levers. Mechanical movement of sitting back and forth pumping.
Each rotation of the gear. There will be some very small oil flow down the copper pipe into the belly of the crane below. Store it as fuel.
It's just that the supply is small. Just enough to keep the lamp burning. Look at the tubing again. Huge and rugged. There are two copper pipes running down the oil pipeline to the foot of the crane. The crane's feet are also very thick.
The professor pointed to the crane's feet and said, "If I'm right. The crane's feet must be connected to the outer layer of the cavity that we came up with.
He's actually an oil filter. Crude oil pumped up from the ground. Some of these impurities. More is filtered. Through these feet into the hollow.
It's just unexpected. This crane is so finely worked. Thousands of years. He won't be clogged. The wisdom of the ancients is truly endless.
Think about it. Suppose the tubing below this is blocked. And the machine doesn't stop. It's still pumping up the oil. What are the consequences?"
Everyone shushed each other. Everyone knows the consequences. I'm afraid the consequence is that this palace is full of crude oil. Otherwise, there is a risk of starting a huge fire. It will burn this magnificent underground palace to the ground.
Now look at it. The entire underground palace appears unusually wide. The main hall is supported by eight huge stone pillars.
Each stone pillar is carved with a fire phoenix. The fire phoenix comes to life. At the top of the column. The beaks are all made of copper. Leaning out.
The professor walked from pillar to pillar. I fumbled around on it for a long time. Then he said to Zhu Pengyue and Chu Pengfei.
"You go over. Dotting the beak."
The professor's two apprentices obeyed the professor. Picking up the solid fuel on the bayonet, he lit the beaks one by one.
Originally, everyone was still confused. When the phoenix beak is set on fire. The underground palace immediately revealed its original appearance. Look at it now. The main hall is a large space. The ground floor is paved with exquisite white marble.
The dragon is carved and the phoenix is painted on it. Although it is covered by dust. But it does not lose the original color of a mighty emperor. It shows the gorgeous and spectacular domineering of the year.
Illuminated by the burning lights of the mouth of the phoenix. The whole hall was as bright as day. It looks like it's the main hall of an underground royal palace.
The walls around the temple are carved with beautiful frescoes. It seems that the air in this is relatively circulating. Because the color of the mural has been lost. There is no style of the year.
But it can still be seen that most of the frescoes are carved with a queen. The queen half-hid her face. Dressed in light veil. Wearing a crown of gold. The body shape is stunning. Narrow waist. Can't help but just want people to shake it gently.
Wang Hao stared at the mural for a long time. The more I look at this queen, the more familiar I feel. I can't help but be familiar. There was also one that made his blood run wild. Want the feeling of impulsiveness.
It's as if this queen is deliberately teasing him. Light veil to cover face. Just wanted to tease Wang Hao and let Wang Hao step forward and remove her veil.
The professors and soldiers were overjoyed. Hara Khan and Li Changshan let everyone rest in the palace for a while. Eat some dry food first to replenish your strength.
The discovery of the underground palace made everyone very happy. Not a tomb though. But such a miracle was found underground. Study of ancient cultures in desert areas. It has played a role in the relevance of quality.
Now such an underground palace has been discovered. Zhou Xingnan was very happy. While eating. While reporting this matter to Hara Khan and Li Changshan. Cultural impact on the archaeological community of country Z and even the XJ region.
However, depending on the situation, this underground palace is very close to the outside. Many things in the palace are badly damaged. Some of the ancient ceramics have lost their archaeological value.
But this must be the place where the ancient queen ruled. It seems that there are a lot of horn books scattered underground. There are also some with national characteristics. Very exaggerated jade ornaments with weapons such as belt buckles and armor round knives.
It seems that the ancient guards were left behind by standing guard. Maybe it's the Praetorian Guards in the old palace.
But I couldn't find anyone. A lot of soldiers don't rest. Nor do I eat. Arranged by Angliss to look around.
Slowly more and more messages came back. There is the Queen's bedchamber. Various rooms behind the main hall. There is even an underground pond. But it looks deep, deep. Can't get to the bottom of it.
I don't know when. Wang Hao has been staring in front of the mural for a long time. He just stood. At a time when everyone goes to rest and eat. He stood in front of the mural and stared at it for a long time.
He felt that the mural was so beautiful. The queen above is almost the same as the real one. And that's not all. Still waving to him. Teased him.
"Guests from afar. Great work. You may be seated."
Wang Hao replied with a blank expression. Ying Sheng stretched out his hand and was pulled by the queen. He accompanied the queen to the throne in the middle of the hall and sat down.
The Queen's throne is so big. Not only big. And the whole body is snow-white. It is made of authentic mutton fat white jade. It is covered with a snow leopard skin like brocade.
The queen is wrapped in a light veil all over. Light yarn is half-covered and half-transparent. Snow white light yarn. Pair with snow-white lanolin jade. The queen also became snow-white.
Wang Hao only looked vague and hazy. He felt that this queen was very familiar. The familiar seems to be very close to the queen. I just can't call the queen by name. It seems like he's been with the queen all along. It seems that there has never been a separation.
The queen brushes the fine sand. Snow tender as onions** lifted on the throne of mutton fat and white jade. actually lay down slowly beside Wang Hao.
Dressed in snow white. Under the brocade leopard-like hides. Immediately it makes people's blood pump. Wang Hao couldn't help but feel the blood and qi rolling around his body. Inexplicably, he reached out and pulled up the queen's green jade fingers and played with it.
And now turn around. Wang Hao's puzzled discovery. He and the queen were on a snow-white jade bed. Carved dragon and phoenix at the head of the bed.
The bed is inlaid with gold and silver. Next to the bed is a screen. It is engraved with fairy mountain clouds, flowers, birds, and brocade beasts. The Extreme.
The queen did not refuse Wang Hao's touch at all. And that's not all. In a moment, a maid stepped forward. Bring me a cup of tea. The Queen's Rising Grace. Said lightly with her lips.
"Your Majesty, brother. My brother and I have known each other for thousands of years. We will meet again today. Brother, please try it. This is the wine I made for my brother. The menstrual period has been stored. Brother, let's see if it's still as mellow as before."
