Help! I just woke up and was stabbed by a big kid

Gu Yue fell down in a mess.

A large amount of leaves and dust fell heavily onto the stone slabs along with him.

Gu Yue was so dizzy from the fall that he couldn't recover for a long time. He heard Gu Xu yelling in a trance. He opened his mouth to respond, but his mouth was full of dirt. He immediately turned over and started to spit.

His tailbone hurt so much, luckily the pit wasn't deep, otherwise it would have broken him apart. Gu Yue looked around and found that it was a dark space with no walls around it, which seemed very spacious.

I thought it was a hunting trap... God knows how scared Gu Yue was just now. He even imagined the scene of being pierced by the wooden spikes at the bottom of the trap.

The light from the big hole above suddenly dimmed, and someone jumped down from above.

It was Shi San. He brought down a cloud of dust, and Gu Yue felt dizzy, and the dust hit his face again.

Dirty!

Then he heard Gu Xu shouting from above that he was going to find the entrance.

Gu Yue shouted: "Be careful... cough cough cough!!"

The ash is too big.

He was a little disappointed that it wasn't Gu Xu who came down to look for him, but he was relieved. If it was Gu Xu, he would definitely be able to find the entrance to this damn place and come in to save him.

By the way, this should be the place where King Shen hides his treasure, right?

With the light from above, Gu Yue could see that there was a vaguely square space around him. It was not small in size, at least the skylight could not completely illuminate the stone wall.

Shi San pulled him up.

Covered in dust, Gu Yue patted his head and thought to himself that he was unlucky.

But should we say that he is a cannon fodder or that he has the aura of a protagonist? He found a crypt that seems to be a treasure trove, but if he just let it go, it would be too...

He raised his head to look at the top of his head. The place where he had leaked was exactly the crack in the stone slab ceiling. Perhaps because of the long period of time, the rain had washed away the dirt and ash on top, which loosened the covering soil and eroded the ground.

There shouldn't be any fatal mechanism, right?

Gu Yue took two steps forward and just as he stepped into the darkness, his little toe hit something extremely hard.

"what!!!"

Gu Yue felt numb and painful all over!

Am I cursed?

His toes were so painful that he dug them into the ground. Gu Yue bent down and looked down to see what he had kicked.

A dark yellow rectangular stone was covered with a tattered coarse cloth. With just a slight touch, the cloth, which still had a shape, turned into a pile of ash.

Gu Yue reached out and picked up the stone.

It was surprisingly heavy in his hand, and when he took a look at it under the daylight, a dim golden light flashed, and Gu Yue felt that his eyes were dazzled.

Holy shit! Gold bricks!

Gu Yue was stunned as he held the gold brick in his hand.

Here it comes again! It's hard to say whether it's the protagonist's halo or the cannon fodder's halo. His little toe hurts so much, but Gu Yue hopes it will hurt a few more times. It would be best if every time he hits his toe in the future, it would be on such a big gold brick.

Shi San blew the fire stick, and the flames jumped, allowing the area visible underground to become larger.

Gu Yue hurried to the place where he had just picked up the gold brick, and Shi San followed.

He soon found out why there were gold bricks here.

In the dark cave, on the ground paved with large stone bricks, there were four completely skeletonized bodies lying. The rotten coarse cloth was the clothing of one of the skeletons, which was in the posture of embracing the gold brick, and a piece of the little finger bone was stepped on by Gu Yue.

Gu Yue's hand shook and the gold brick almost fell to the ground.

These corpses looked a bit scary at first, but they were not as shocking as fresh dead bodies. The skeleton element was overused in the modern world.

Gu Yue was just startled, but soon calmed down.

He put the gold brick aside and was about to go forward, but was stopped by Shi San.

Shi San took out a short knife. No one knew what he did, but the handle of the knife stretched out and became a long-handled knife. Shi San took the knife and the fire starter and walked around the bones a few times, poking the ground and walls nearby. After he determined that there was no trap, he nodded to Gu Yue.

The two men squatted down to study the bones.

The bones were already very brittle. If they were left alone for a while and exposed to a bit of wind, they would probably turn completely into ash. There were no obvious external injuries on the skeletons, not even a crack. Most of the clothes had also weathered away, and one could only vaguely see that they were wearing long-sleeved coarse cloth clothes.

"It has been several years, right?" Gu Yue judged.

He loves watching murder TV dramas and reading forensic novels, and probably knows that human bones are the most difficult to decompose, so it must have taken more than one or two years for it to become like this.

There were tools beside the skeleton, but unfortunately those iron tools with wooden handles had been completely rusted and had lost their shape, so it was impossible to tell what they were.

The possibility of him being a treasure hunter is greater.

And it should have leaked from the gap above the head...

Looking up, I found that the gap was more than three meters high and it was difficult to climb up. The gold bricks should be the treasures they found in this cave, but it was a pity that they could not take them out and died here.

But didn’t someone discover King Shen’s treasure a while ago and take some away? Why didn’t they take this gold brick?

Has no one ever been here? Where did that thing come from?

Gu Yue was puzzled.

The confusing King Shen...

Shi San explored the way in front, and Gu Yue followed behind. The two of them roughly saw the cave clearly.

It was a bit like the underground palace in tomb-robbing TV dramas, but it was very crude and shoddily made, as if a hole was dug randomly and stone pillars were placed on it, without even a square shape. The floor was even more uneven, probably made of stones cut from a nearby mountain, and had grown a layer of dry moss.

The entire underground cave is about the size of a yard and is in the shape of an "concave" character. The protruding space on the right is where Gu Yue fell, and the bones are in the corner of this space.

The sunken part of the word "concave" was a tightly closed stone door. But Gu Yue always felt that the door was not tightly closed and seemed to be a little off. Could it be that the four treasure thieves had dug it?

Opposite the stone door, there is another stone door on the other side of the space. The door is half open and very heavy, and it is dark inside.

Gu Yue didn't dare to act rashly. After all, Gu Xu had just told them to stay where they were.

After walking around the other protruding space in the concave character, I found nothing new. The entire cave was empty, with some tree root-like plants crawling on the walls, and some garden lantern-like things standing abruptly on the ground.

There seemed to be some solidified lamp oil in the stone garden lamp, but Gu Yue did not dare to let Shi San light the lamp, fearing that there was some kind of trap.

Gu Yue walked around in the space.

Gradually he felt something was wrong: he was wearing cloth shoes, which were commonly worn by the people of Northern Qin, and the soles were not too thick. When he walked on the stone bricks, his feet occasionally felt uneven.

He took Shi San's fire starter, squatted down and observed the ground carefully.

Although a layer of loose soil had accumulated on the stone floor of the entire underground cave over the course of time, with the help of firelight, one could still see that there seemed to be a layer of pattern underneath.

Gu Yue took off his coat and brushed off the loose dust on the ground.

The rough carvings underneath gradually emerged.
