I traveled through time and became the Queen of Ancient Dian

Chapter 29 Pu Clan Mystery: The Truth Behind the Strange Sound

"Retreat!" Before the words were finished, there was another loud noise from deep inside the warehouse, "boom--" the dust fell down, and Wei Wuzhe was so scared that he hugged Bao Na directly, wishing he could hang on her.

Baona smiled bitterly and helplessly. This little girl is too timid!

Although... she herself was also very panicked.

The warehouse was filled with the smell of dust, and visibility dropped instantly. Everyone could only grope forward with the dim light.

Zhaoyang Ruyue calmly analyzed, "That sound sounds like... something collapsing?" Wumeng Tianlong echoed, "That's possible. This warehouse is very old and the structure is not very stable."

Chen Yong rubbed his hands excitedly: "Exciting! This is definitely the rhythm of the adventure copy opening!" He rushed into the depths of the dust like a wild horse that had broken free from its reins. "I'll go explore the way first, you guys follow me closely!" It was too late for Priest Zheng to stop him, so he could only whisper a spell to bless peace.

It was pitch black in the depths of the warehouse, and you couldn't see your hand in front of you. All you could hear was each other's heavy breathing.

"Warrior, be careful!" Elder Feng's voice trembled slightly.

Suddenly, "Ouch!" A scream broke the silence, and Chen Yong's voice was filled with disbelief, "I... I seem to have stepped on something!" Everyone hurried over and took a look in the light of the torches. They saw Chen Yong standing at the entrance of a downward-sloping passage. The passage was dark and bottomless.

"Oh my god! A hidden copy?" Chen Yong's eyes lit up. "There must be something good down there!"

"Wait, warrior," Priest Zheng cautiously stopped him. "This passage has never been set foot in before. No one knows what lies beneath. It's too dangerous to rush down!"

"Priest, don't worry, I, Chen Yong, am strong and healthy, and I'm not afraid of anything!" As he said that, Chen Yong prepared to jump down.

"Wait a minute!" Wumeng Tianlong grabbed him and said, "Let me go down and take a look first." After that, he untied the rope from his waist, fixed one end to the wooden beam of the warehouse, and held the other end in his hand. "If it's safe below, I will pull the rope three times, and then you can come down."

Wumeng Tianlong slowly descended along the rope and disappeared into the darkness.

Time passed by minute by minute, and everyone's heart was in their throat.

Finally, three slight sounds of pulling the rope were heard.

"Safe!" Chen Yong shouted excitedly, "Let's go! Let's go down!"

Everyone filed in and climbed down the passage.

The passage is very narrow and can only accommodate one person.

Baona was walking at the end. Just as she was about to enter the passage, she suddenly felt someone pulling at the corner of her clothes...

Baona felt someone pulling at the corner of her clothes, and her heart tightened. No way, no way, there really couldn’t be some dirty thing in this wilderness, right?

She turned around suddenly, but saw only an empty warehouse and falling dust.

"Illusion?" she muttered and quickly got into the passage.

The passage was longer than expected, and it became increasingly damp and cold as it went down. There was a strange musty smell in the air.

"Oh my god, this smell is incredible!" Chen Yong complained, holding his nose. "It's even more addictive than the smell of Lao Feng's stinky socks!"

Some murals can be vaguely seen on the walls on both sides of the passage.

Under the light of the torch, the patterns on the mural gradually became clearer.

"Oh my god, this...this can't be..." Zhaoyang Ruyue's eyes widened, her voice trembling with excitement. "This is a scene from the early days of the Pu people! It's extremely precious historical material!"

The murals are rich in content and lifelike, showing scenes of hunting, farming, and sacrifices by the ancestors of the Pu people. There are even some mysterious symbols and patterns that dazzle people.

"Awesome! This archaeological excavation is a huge win!" Chen Yong slapped his thigh excitedly. "If this gets out, it will definitely shock the world archaeological community!"

Wei Wuzhe, who was walking in the middle of the team, held Wumeng Tianlong's hand tightly, his body trembling slightly.

The dark environment made her a little scared. Wumeng Tianlong sensed her uneasiness and held her hand tightly, giving her silent comfort.

Dancer Wei looked up at his resolute profile, his eyes filled with gratitude and... a hint of barely perceptible admiration.

Finally, a ray of light appeared at the end of the passage.

"Exit!" Chen Yong took the lead and rushed out.

Everyone followed him out, and the scene before them stunned them all... "This... This is..." Elder Feng's voice trembled as he pointed ahead, "Forbidden Land..."

When everyone walked out of the passage, the view in front of them suddenly opened up and they saw a vast underground space.

A huge stone platform stands in the center, on which are placed some strange-shaped instruments. The surrounding walls are engraved with mysterious symbols, and the whole space is filled with a solemn and dignified atmosphere.

"Oh my god, this place is a bit weird!" Chen Yong touched the back of his head and felt a chill on his back.

"This atmosphere is definitely the place where the villain appears!"

Elder Feng's face turned pale. He pointed in the direction of the stone platform and said in a trembling voice, "Forbidden...forbidden area! This is the tribe's forbidden area! We shouldn't come in!"

Priest Zheng stroked his beard, his expression serious. "Old Feng, please don't exaggerate! We don't even know what's in this forbidden area, so how can we jump to conclusions?"

"But...but our ancestors taught us that anyone who trespasses into forbidden territory will be punished by heaven!" Elder Feng's voice was tinged with fear. "We can't joke with the safety of the entire tribe!"

"Old Feng, the times are changing and society is progressing. We can't always stick to the old ways!" Priest Zheng was a little impatient. "Besides, we're just here to take a look, not to cause any damage!"

The two of them were talking back and forth, and it seemed that they were about to start a quarrel.

Bao Na quickly tried to smooth things over: "Don't get excited, both of you! Don't get excited! Let's take a look at the murals first. Maybe we can find some clues. If it really involves some taboo, we can retreat immediately. How about that?"

Everyone nodded in agreement.

The murals on both sides of this passage are so rich in content that they are definitely a major discovery in the archaeological world!

It would be a shame to give up exploring just because of a small incident!

So, everyone walked along the walls on both sides of the passage and carefully studied the patterns and symbols on the murals.

Zhaoyang Ruyue, worthy of being the archaeological team's top student, quickly discovered a clue: "These symbols... seem to be a kind of ancient writing! If we can decipher them, we might be able to unlock the secret of the Pu tribe's origin!"

At this moment, Engineer Chu, who was walking in front of the team, suddenly stopped and pointed to the end of the mural, with a slightly surprised tone: "What...what is that?" Engineer Chu's words made everyone's heart tighten. Looking in the direction of his finger, they saw a stone door suddenly appearing at the end of the mural!

"Oh my god! There's a hidden level?!" Chen Yong's eyes lit up, and he rubbed his hands together, eager to try. "Isn't it time to go in and explore?!"

Elder Feng's face turned green when he heard this: "Absolutely not! Beyond this stone gate, it must be even more dangerous! We should leave quickly!"

Priest Zheng was also a little hesitant, but curiosity drove him forward: "Old Feng, you are too timid! Nothing ventured, nothing gained. Were the ancestors of our Pu tribe cowards?"

Baona and Zhaoyang Ruyue looked at each other and quickly followed.

This stone gate appeared so suddenly. What secrets are hidden inside?

They can't wait to find out!

The stone gate is about three meters high and two meters wide. It is made of huge blue-gray stones. There are some strange words carved on the surface, which look like some kind of ancient totem or some kind of mysterious spell.

"What kind of words are these?" Zhaoyang Ruyue frowned and carefully observed the words on the stone door. "I have never seen such words before..."

"Could this be... the legendary divine writing?" Elder Feng's voice trembled even more violently. "It is said that only gods can understand this kind of writing!"

"Divine writing? Old Feng, you've read too many novels!" Priest Zheng curled his lips in disdain. "I think this is probably some lost ancient writing! Xiao Zhao, study it quickly and see if you can decipher it!"

Zhaoyang Ruyue nodded, took out the notebook and pen she carried with her, and began to carefully copy the words on the stone gate.

Time passed minute by minute, and beads of sweat appeared on Zhaoyang Ruyue's forehead, but she still did not give up, and the pen in her hand kept recording every detail.

Suddenly, Zhaoyang Ruyue stopped writing, raised her head, and said solemnly, "These words... I seem to have seen them somewhere..."

When everyone heard this, they immediately became excited and gathered around.

"Where have you seen me before? Tell me quickly!" Chen Yong stamped his feet anxiously.

Zhaoyang Ruyue pointed at a symbol on the stone gate and said slowly, "This symbol... looks very similar... looks very similar..."

She suddenly stopped and her eyes fell on an inconspicuous stone below the stone gate.

"It looks very similar to... the pattern on this stone..." Zhaoyang Ruyue reached out and slowly touched the stone...
