Chapter 6: Entering the Mausoleum

Meng Fan jumped up and came to the perspective window and looked out.

But outside the window, a huge circular mausoleum stands towering on the bottom of the sea, showing the color of jasper, emitting a fascinating white light.

This tomb covers an area of dozens of square kilometers and is ten feet high. If you look carefully, you can't find a gap in the whole body. It seems that it is carved from some kind of huge jade. Above the walls of the mausoleum, there are all kinds of rare beasts, flying dragons, fire phoenixes and Xuanwu unicorns, each of which are full of mysterious colors and lifelike, as if they want to break through the wall.

The white jade of the Han Palace and the Manchu Mausoleum, the beautiful myth created by human beings is not worth mentioning compared with the huge mausoleum in front of us.

In order to make everyone better observe the mausoleum, Tang Ji drove a submarine and walked slowly around the mausoleum. The mausoleum was so huge that it took him an hour to return to its original position.

"This, this is really amazing." Meng Fan sighed sincerely.

"The magic is much more than that." Doctor said, "I just observed carefully that the whole mausoleum was not damaged at all, not even a small gap. This is almost impossible for a mausoleum that has existed on the seabed for a long time.

"This is indeed a strange question." Tangji said, "Archaeology, any mausoleum that has existed for more than decades will cause damage of various sizes under the influence of natural forces. This huge mausoleum has obviously existed for a long time and has not been damaged at all. It is really incredible.

"Maybe there is a force that is maintaining its original appearance." Meng Fan looked at the white jade wall of the tomb and said thoughtfully.

"What kind of power will it be?" Qin Wanyong came behind Meng Fan, "I'm really looking forward to it."

"When will we go in?" Meng Fan looked at Tang Ji and couldn't wait.

I have to say that curiosity is the driving force of human progress. In the face of such a mysterious and strange tomb, everyone is not afraid at all, but full of excitement and curiosity.

"Prepare and bring food and necessary equipment. We'll go in right away." Tangji looks more anxious than everyone, which is easy to understand. After all, he still has six team members trapped in the mausoleum.

"Okay, let's prepare the oxygen mask and high-pressure diving equipment."

Meng Fan and Doctor were about to turn around to get diving-related equipment, but they heard Tang Ji say, "No, I forgot to say just now that there is no water in this tomb and you don't need any diving equipment to enter."

"Oh?" Everyone was stunned.

There is no water in the undersea mausoleum, which sounds really fantastic. If Tang Ji hadn't been here and his expression was very serious, Meng Fan would have taken this sentence as a joke.

"I seem to be getting more and more interested in it." The Doctor smiled and said, "Let's go in."

Under the control of Donji, the submarine came to the entrance. Meng Fan looked at the entrance through the window, but saw that the entrance of this huge mausoleum was pitiful and could only accommodate two people to enter side by side. Moreover, the white light at this entrance was better. There seemed to be no gate, but a mass of light blocked the entry of the sea water.

Donji was pressing a button on the console, and a narrow passage suddenly protruded from the bottom of the submarine, and the extended end disappeared directly in the entrance of the mausoleum.

"Isn't it interesting?" Tang Ji said, "Actually, there is no physical door there, just a white light, and the extended passage can be easily accessed."

Meng Fan nodded. It seemed that he was right. There was indeed no gate in this mausoleum. It was the white light that separated the inside of the mausoleum from the outside and blocked the sea.

However, for a mausoleum, the owner of the tomb certainly does not want outsiders to break in. Why does the white light only block the sea and does not prevent the passage from entering? This question puzzled Meng Fan.

There are many puzzles and doubts. Let's uncover them in person after entering the mausoleum. Thinking of this, Meng Fan said with a smile, "Let's go in. Susu and Xiao Ailiu are waiting for us here."

"Why?" Xiao Ai glanced at Meng Fan and asked angrily.

"You two girls are not suitable--" Meng Fan caught a glimpse of Su Su's stubborn eyes and had to swallow the unfinished words into his stomach.

"Good, let's go together." Meng Fan was uncomfortable to be seen by Su Su, so he had to give in.

After saying that, Meng Fan was a little speechless. In this round of 'battle', Susu completely defeated herself with her eyes alone.

Hey!

The submarine stopped steadily, and the people, led by Tangji, gradually approached the entrance of the mausoleum along the narrow passage.

Meng Fan is both excited and nervous, highly focused, and ready to fight at any time.

Looking at everyone, except for Susu and Qin Wanyong's indifferent and calm expressions, everyone else is the same as themselves, with a ridiculous expression intertwined with excitement and caution.

Gradually, the entrance of the mausoleum is getting closer and closer, and the white light is reflected in the eyes, which is becoming more and more dazzling.

'hu——'

Just as everyone arrived at the entrance, gusts of wind suddenly roared. However, strangely, Meng Fan stretched out his hands to explore the air, but felt that the surrounding air was very quiet and dignified, and there was no wave.

"Where did the wind come from?"

"I don't know." Tang Ji replied, "This is also the first time I've been here."

Donji was right. There must be someone stationed on the submarine. The last time he was stationed. This time, the urgent garrison work was handed over to Doctor's two robots. Tang Ji turned the two robots into model sizes, usually in his pocket, and when needed to use them, they could be taken out to restore their original size.

Simple, dexterous and convenient.

Standing in front of the entrance composed of white light, Meng Fan reached out and gently touched the edge of the white light. With his fingertips as the center, a water wave-like halo rippled away instantly, bringing a sense of numbness to his fingers.

"What is this?" This feeling was very comfortable. Meng Fan became lazy and even felt sleepy.

Doctor took out a special detector and inserted the probe into white light. After testing for a few minutes, he said, "It should be some kind of energy fluctuation, which is harmless to the human body."

When Meng Fan heard the words, he took a step at ease, crossed the white light and entered the interior of the mausoleum.

As Tang Ji said, there is indeed not a drop of seawater inside the mausoleum. What is facing the white light is a long and narrow corridor. The wall is smooth and warm, with a slight green light, and the jade floor under the feet is white and almost spotless.

"It's amazing." Everyone followed Meng Fan and entered the mausoleum. When they saw such a scene, they all exclaimed. Especially Qian Sanhai, this unmomentable guy even wanted to pull out the village and pry off a piece of jade as a souvenir.

"Professor Tang, are some of your companions missing here?" Meng Fan leaned over and observed the ground for a while and said, "But look at the ground carefully. It's almost spotless, and there are no traces of passing through."

"Oh? How is this possible? They obviously came in through this door. Tangji was also a little confused, "And this is the only entrance to the mausoleum."

"Go in and have a look, adapt to changes." Doctor kept fiddling with the detector in his hand, which seemed very cautious.

Looking at this narrow corridor, Meng Fan always felt something was wrong, but he couldn't say what was wrong.

"There's something wrong." Qin Wanyong suddenly said, "Have you noticed that this corridor seems to be too long?"

"Yes!" Meng Fan suddenly woke up.

The base of this mausoleum is circular and covers an area of dozens of square kilometers. In this way, its longitudinal length should be only a few kilometers. And this corridor can't see its head at a glance, and its length is absolutely more than ten kilometers.

"Maybe it has something to do with space." Dcotor said, "It may also be a visual illusion. Let's walk around."

Meng Fan feels that what Doctor said is reasonable, and in this case, there is no better way but to walk around.

'dongdong'

Everyone walked on the smooth jade ground, and the sound of their soles stepping on the ground was very dull, as if they were not stepping on the solid ground, but hollowed out boards.

"It's really interesting." Xiao Ai jumped at the end with Qin Su and said happily, "When you walked over, you didn't leave any footprints."

"Oh?" Everyone stopped and checked the roads they had walked. As Xiao Ai said, not only did they leave footprints, but also did not fall any dust. The road they walked through was still spotless, and there was even no trace of anyone walking.
