The crowd immediately followed.

In fact, they didn't need Zhao Yuan's advice, they would also be extra careful, not only because this pyramid was very strange, but also because there was a demon who came to this pyramid before them. If those demons set some traps on the way, or if they sensed their arrival and ambushed in the shadows to launch a sneak attack, if they were not on guard, they would definitely suffer!

Like the passage into the pyramid, this passage is also covered with wires and electric lights.

Zhao Yuan frowned and said, "Everyone pay attention to the surroundings. In this passage, since there is a lighting system, it means that the road to heaven is probably not at the end of it. Perhaps, there are hidden passages on these stone walls and stone slabs. ”

"Understood. Everyone nodded in unison, and even simply stretched out their hands, tapping and groping on the stone walls on both sides and the stone slabs above their heads as they walked. As for the stone slab below, with every step they take, their feet can detect the situation below.

However, even if everyone groped step by step, they still found nothing, and after more than ten minutes, they found that they had actually circled back to the previous tomb, and it was through the passage on the right side that they had walked out.

After walking out of the passage, Hao Li said in surprise: "What's the situation?

Ying Ji frowned and recalled: "We didn't see any forks in the road along the way, only one road led to the end. So, the passages on both sides of the tomb don't lead to other places, but just go around the tomb?

Cheng Haoyu complained: "What's the point? Do you still need to ask? This design is to confuse the people who enter the pyramid, so that they can't find the real passage to Tongtianlu." ”

Ying Ji was noncommittal about Cheng Haoyu's words, because this time was not the time to study the design concept of the passage inside the pyramid. She looked back at the passage she had come out of, and said, "Why don't we go back to the passage and look for it?"

Zhao Yuan's eyes lit up: "You're right, we did ignore a place and didn't check it." ”

"Where is it?" Ying Ji asked, and then reacted as well, looking around, "This burial chamber?"

"That's right, this is it. ”

Cheng Haoyu also reacted and shouted: "Then what are you waiting for? Let's hurry up and find it! Time is pressing, we can't waste it!"

His words made everyone agree.

Immediately, a group of people dispersed and searched around the tomb.

In the process of searching, Zhao Yuan's eyes fell on one of the murals, which was a casual glance, but after seeing the content of the painting clearly, he was stunned: "Hey, this painting ......"

"What's wrong with the painting? Is the passage hidden in the painting?" Cheng Haoyu leaned over and asked. This may sound like a brain-opener, but it's not unreasonable. Because the world in the painting, as a secret realm, is very common. Therefore, it cannot be ruled out that the road to heaven is hidden in the mural.

"Not really. Zhao Yuan shook his head, "I'm just surprised by the content of this painting." Behold, this is Sudan and Africa. The general murals are very exotic. But the characters on this mural, no matter how they look or dress, are all ancient Chinese style. ”

Cheng Haoyu glanced at the mural a few times, and was surprised: "It's really ...... It's strange, how can there be a Chinese-style mural in the interior of a pyramid? It's a bit out of place!"

Ying Ji glanced at it from a distance, and then threw herself into the work of finding the way, but while looking for it, she said: "Perhaps, this pyramid was built by the ancient Chinese?"

"This is too outrageous, isn't it? Can the ancient Chinese run so far? Ran to Africa?" Cheng Haoyu expressed disbelief.

Ying Ji said: "Don't believe it, the feet of our ancestors are afraid that they have stepped on the entire earth. Otherwise, how could there be many plants and animals in the "Classic of Mountains and Seas" that are only found on the African continent? Besides, even if ordinary people can't come this far, wouldn't cultivators still be able to come? Wouldn't the gods and monsters still be able to come?"

"Uh...... That's right. Cheng Haoyu scratched his head, and turned to Zhao Yuan and said, "Senior brother in charge, hurry up and get down to business." This mural can be enjoyed at any time, and there is no hurry to do so. ”

Zhao Yuan nodded in agreement, and before continuing his search, he took one last look at the mural.

The content of this mural is simple, that is, three people standing side by side. In front of them, there was a black tide. The whole painting seems to describe a legend, but the meaning is difficult to understand, and I don't know if it has something to do with the road to heaven.

Zhao Yuan withdrew his gaze and continued to search for the hidden passage.

After looking around, he looked at the sarcophagus in the center of the burial chamber and walked over.

Hao Li said to him: "Senior brother in charge, you don't have to bother. I've just seen that there is no hidden passage in the sarcophagus. ”

"There's no inside the sarcophagus, is it under the sarcophagus?" Zhao Yuan asked.

"Huh?"

"Under the sarcophagus?"

Everyone was stunned.

"Senior Brother Boss, did you make any discoveries?" asked Ying Ji.

Zhao Yuan said: "Don't you think that under this sarcophagus, it is too clean? There is no dust at all." ”

"What if the staff here are too responsible and diligent in cleaning?" Cheng Haoyu said.

Zhao Yuan said: "That possibility is not ruled out, but there is another possibility, that is, someone specially cleaned up the area around the sarcophagus to eliminate the footprints." Anyway, this sarcophagus is not too heavy for us, just take a look at it. ”

"I'll come. Meng Shu volunteered, rushed to the sarcophagus in a few steps, stretched out two thick arms, and lifted the sarcophagus weighing thousands of catties at once.

And yet there is nothing underneath.

"Senior brother in charge, it seems that you guessed wrong. Cheng Haoyu said.

Zhao Yuan smiled: "That's right, isn't there a pedestal?" He commanded Meng Shu, lifted the sarcophagus to the side and put it down, and then came over again and lifted the stone base below.

A black crossing appeared in front of everyone.

"It's really here!" Cheng Haoyu opened his mouth wide, and immediately gave Zhao Yuan a thumbs up, and praised him sincerely: "Senior brother in charge, you are still amazing." ”

Zhao Yuan smiled, did not speak, carefully observed the crossing, and after making sure that no traps were laid, he beckoned everyone: "Let's go, let's go down." ”

He took the lead, and the crowd followed him, and Yuguan entered the dark, winding down the passage.
