He gave instructions to the archaeological team and said he was not a tomb robber.

Chapter 166

Half an hour later, the crowd came to the little red hill.

Everyone was facing a cliff on this small hill, which was extremely steep.

On the top of the hill, there are large and small grottoes, of different scales.

For a while, looking at the spectacular scene on the cliff, the archaeological experts present couldn't help but marvel.

However, Professor Zhou moved very quickly, and directly began to arrange the safety rope for everyone to climb.

A moment later

, with the cooperation of the two squads of soldiers,

two climbing ropes and safety ropes fell vertically on the largest grotto on the cliff wall.

The grotto on top of this red cliff wall has 64 grottoes of different sizes.

And what everyone is going to is also the place that contains the most information, which is the most central and largest grotto.

The rest are generally places of worship for monks.

It didn't have much to do with their trip to find the tomb of Genghis Khan.

Following this climbing rope, the archaeological team climbed up one after another.

Soon, all of them, including the soldiers of the two squads, ascended to the largest cave Buddha hall.

In front of the Buddha hall, there is a thick iron door that is hidden.

and some of the traces that have not been erased when some archaeological teams first came to excavate.

In the cave, you can even see brushes covered in a thick layer of dust, and tattered towels that can't be seen clearly.

"They're in such a hurry!" Professor

Zhou said after frowning, picking up a drawing from the ground and gently blowing away the dust.

"Even some of the tools for work were left here before they had time to save them!It seems that something strange happened here at that time!" "

Even... It is likely that there is a big difference between them and what we know!"

Professor Zhou looked around at the archaeological team, and after making sure that there were no fewer people, he led everyone into the grotto.

Surprisingly,

it was unexpectedly cool in the grotto.

Entering this grotto is like entering another world, which is obviously very different from the desert outside, which is so hot that the air distorts.

Along the way,

everyone saw countless exquisite murals on this grotto.

Although they have spent nearly a thousand years here, they are still not corroded and are still colorful.

Whether it is a thousand-armed and thousand-eyed Guanyin picture, or the Nine Buddhas on the Tao, the murals of the Buddha's lectures are all depicted vividly.

There was even a man and a woman, two men and a woman... Up to the five men and one woman, the tantric male and female double cultivation murals, the lines are colored, etc., are also exquisite.

Ye Xiao glanced at it quietly, but for no reason in his mind, he remembered the divination results of the six turtle shells.

"It's worthy of...'Great Omen'!" Ye

Xiao sighed in his heart.

There are countless murals here, as well as stone pagodas carved on the walls, and bitter monks who sit there.

There are also Uighur Mongolian, Sanskrit, Tibetan inscriptions, etc., all of which have extremely high historical, cultural and artistic value.

Together with the stone wall peeled off and sold on the black market in the outside world, which one is definitely the sky-high price of the sky-high.

It's a pity that Professor Zhou, who is full of love for archaeology, seems to have changed his personality this time.

He didn't seem to be interested in what was on top of the frescoes in front of him, and it was a waste of time to even glance at them.

As soon as you enter the grotto, you will purposefully lead people through the grotto, as if looking for something.

Moments later, the group walked through the grotto to a stone staircase carved into a stone wall inside.

"Ascend here, the temple above is where Genghis Khan once lived

!" "It is also the place where the Mongolian nobles later worshiped Genghis Khan

!" "It's a pity that because of that incident, this place is also completely deserted!"

Professor

Zhou said to himself, and at the same time tried to see if the stone staircase in front of him was unstable and could bear the weight of the people.

After a moment, Professor Zhou did not hesitate in the slightest.

Directly stepped on the stairs, step by step to the high platform of the stone staircase.

Two fighters followed, protecting Professor Zhou's safety behind.

Eventually, Professor Zhou ascended the last stone staircase and pushed open the wooden door that was simply covered with wood.

An extremely thick smell of smoke and decay came to his face.

......

A moment later, everyone, including the warriors, ascended the stone staircase to the Buddha hall above.

is different from what everyone imagined, this

Buddha hall is not as colorful and gorgeous as everyone thinks.

Except for a few murals on the wall of the main hall, as well as six human stone carvings in front of the wall, and a tribute platform, there seems to be nothing else.

"These six human stone carvings should be Genghis Khan, his wife, and four sons, right?"

Ye Xiao looked at this human stone carving and guessed.

Genghis Khan, the legendary Mongolian king of his life, Ye Xiao also knew more or less about his previous life.

Legend has it that when Genghis Khan was hunting, he accidentally fell from his horse and vomited blood due to old age and illness.

These statues were carved out of the local Buddhist temple for the Mongolian nobles to worship.

However,

Professor Zhou does not seem to have much interest in these stone sculptures.

He searched back and forth in the main hall, and his eyes suddenly lit up.

Then he stood in front of a mural and carefully pulled out a silk cloth from his backpack.

Ye Xiao's pupils shrank.

This cloth is naturally the brocade box, which records the clues of Genghis Khan's mausoleum.

When he came to Professor Zhou's side, Ye Xiao looked at the mural on the wall, and he was not only slightly stunned.

"On this mural..."

Ye Xiao said as if asking.

Professor Zhou on the side was already full of joy on his face, and said in surprise:

"Before I came, I went to find a professor who participated in the excavation here before. "

It was he who told me that in this Buddha hall, there is a mural that records the burial of Genghis Khan.

"It's just that they left in a hurry at that time, and they didn't have time to take anything from here, and even many of the tools of that time were left here!"

"Now, we are also taking advantage of the shade of our predecessors!" As

he spoke, Professor Zhou spread out the cloth in his hand and began to compare it with the patterns on the mural.

This mural is a trapezoidal structure, and the top two floors are depicted with mountains, rivers, and fields, and in a prominent position, the two armies are depicted facing each other and fighting fiercely!

It should be the scene of Genghis Khan leading his troops into battle.

The upper part of the mural depicts two white yurts with high spires, and on the left side there is a temple and a palace, in which a woman is depicted, as if she is weeping.

This is a picture of Genghis Khan's death and the grief of the accompanying Mrs. Yesui.

On the very top of this trapezoidal mural, what is drawn is somewhat intriguing.

......
