C440 The Secret of the Maps



C440 The Secret of the Maps

On the third beast skin map, there was an ancient tomb. It was a triangular tomb, with the smell of the Egyptian pyramids, but it also had features that the pyramids did not have. There was no indication of the size of the ancient tomb on the map. He wondered if it was a huge ancient tomb or if it was just a very ordinary small ancient tomb. The only thing that was certain was that it was beneath the Church of the Holy Sepulchre, and under an ancient drain.    

    

There were three ancient maps. The first was the map of ancient Jerusalem, the second was the map of the underground drainage system, and the third was the map of an ancient tomb. When these three maps were overlapped, it seemed as if they were separate maps with completely different contents. However, if you excluded the beast skins as a carrier, only lines and notes remained, it was a three-dimensional map!    

    

The ancients couldn't draw a three-dimensional map with a computer, but they could overlap the three planar maps to achieve similar results. From this alone, one could not help but feel a sense of awe at the ancient Jews. They were indeed the smartest people in the world.    

    

If the current scientific instruments could stick together to form a complete beast skin map for analysis, the Israeli archaeologists would have already dug up the tomb hidden beneath the Church of the Holy Sepulchre. Unfortunately, in this world, only Xia Lei had that kind of ability to see the contents of the second and third map.    

    

As he walked out of the Israel Museum in Jerusalem, the sun shone down on his face, warming him up. Xia Lei's mood was just like this weather, the sunshine was bright and the wind was light, extremely good. This was because he saw hope, the hope to crack the secrets of the ancient alloy.    

    

The answer was very likely to be in that ancient tomb, where the Princess Young-mei had never been before. Right now, he was only one step away from reaching this answer, how could he not be excited?    

    

"What are you laughing at?" Tang Yuyan frowned. During this time, Xia Lei's actions were weird, and she was a woman who was very curious about him. Her head was already filled with all kinds of questions and assumptions about Xia Lei.    

    

Long Bing also stared at Xia Lei, observing him. Her feeling was the same as Tang Yuyan, which was a little abnormal.    

    

"Say something." Tang Yuyan said with dissatisfaction: "Didn't you say you were telling us about something along the way? Now that we have left the museum, Long Bing and I are waiting for you to speak. "    

    

Long Bing nodded, the two enemies were finally on the same side.    

    

Xia Lei then said, "There is indeed a very ancient drainage system in the old districts of Jerusalem, and one of the drainage systems is under the Church of the Holy Sepulchre. So, if we can just find the entrance to that old drainage system, we can get under the Church of the Holy Sepulchre. "    

    

"You ?" Tang Yuyan said in shock, "How did you know that there is an ancient drainage system under the Old City of Jerusalem?"    

    

"Look at the map." Xia Lei said: "Didn't you see the map? There are hints. "    

    

Tang Yuyan could not help but look at Long Bing, "Did you see the hint?"    

    

Long Bing tried her best to recall the contents of the map, but she didn't read it for long. Furthermore, she didn't know the Hebrew Language, so she couldn't find any hints at all. She shook her head. "No."    

    

Xia Lei shrugged his shoulders, "How about you guys go in and take a look again, I'll wait for you guys."    

    

Tang Yuyan and Long Bing did not move. Although there were some suspicions in their hearts, other than what Xia Lei had said, they could not think of any other explanation for this matter.    

    

"Alright, let's go back." Xia Lei said: "I need a set of tunnel protective equipment and some excavation and archaeological equipment. Help me get them as soon as possible."    

    

Tang Yuyan said: "A set? Do you mean to say that you entered the old drainage system alone? "    

    

Xia Lei said: "Yes, I'll go in by myself."    

    

Long Bing said flatly: "That won't do, I'm not at ease if you go in by yourself. You can have Yuyan stay outside to support you, but I must go on an expedition with you. "    

    

"Long Bing, what do you mean?" Tang Yuyan's pretty face turned cold, "Why didn't you say that you would stay outside to support us, while Xia Lei and I go in?"    

    

"Alright, alright, stop arguing." Xia Lei laughed bitterly: "You guys can follow me in, but I have to remind you, if we find an ancient tomb underground, you guys must stay outside and not follow me in. As you know, it's a very dangerous thing to do, as those experts who died and went crazy did. "    

    

"But aren't you fine?" Tang Yuyan said.    

    

Xia Lei was unable to explain.    

    

Long Bing said: "Forget it, let's talk after we enter first."    

    

In the afternoon, a pickup truck arrived at a remote section of the old city. It was Liu Qiang driving the car, and after putting Xia Lei and the other two down, he drove the car and left.    

    

The three of them carried a large travel bag on their back, giving off the feeling of a backpacker walking on foot.    

    

Xia Lei looked left and right, then walked toward a well lid which was by the side of the road. He used a crowbar to pry open the lid, revealing the rusted iron stairs beneath. A moldy and smelly smell came out from the well, Tang Yuyan and Long Bing immediately frowned.    

    

"Are you sure it's here? I don't think this drainage well has many years of history. Is it the entrance you were looking for? " Tang Yuyan's eyes were full of doubt.    

    

Xia Lei said: "There aren't that many questions, follow me." After saying that, he climbed down the rusty iron ladder into the drainage well.    

    

Long Bing also went down the drainage well.    

    

Tang Yuyan was the last to go down. When she entered the drainage well, she reached out to pull the lid back, once again covering the drainage well.    

    

"Chi!" A light bulb was turned on, and a green light illuminated the drainage well. There was actually no water in the well, only some sewage that had settled down. The unpleasant odor was also emitted by them. There was also a rotting dead mouse.    

    

"Damn it, how could it die here? "How terrifying!" Tang Yuyan said with her hair standing on end.    

    

"A delicate aura." Long Bing muttered to herself, "The young miss of the Tang Sect is indeed charming. What's wrong with a dead mouse? Even if it's a dead person, have you not killed enough people? Would you be afraid of death? "    

    

Tang Yuyan really wanted to punch Long Bing's nose. She acted a little more reserved, a little more feminine, just so as to attract Xia Lei's attention. Long Bing, on the other hand, was always the troublemaker, truly detestable!    

    

"You two are really something, arguing from the ground to the ground. In your previous life, you two must have been husband and wife, right?" Xia Lei spoke as he took out the equipment from his travel bag.    

    

There were a lot of equipment inside the backpack, including a set of waterproof leather clothing, a pair of outdoor waterproof boots, and a small oxygen bottle that could provide two hours of oxygen. There were also knives, hammers, folding army shovels, and so on. There were a dozen of them, a whole bunch. In addition, there was a gun made in Rayma Military Factory, two magazines and thirty rounds of bullets.    

    

Tang Yuyan and Long Bing did not continue with their argument. Sometimes, their argument was just a habit. They also took off their travel bags and took out the equipment inside, one by one. Their equipment was the same as Xia Lei's.    

    

Xia Lei changed into rubber clothes.    

    

The rustling sounds of clothes came from behind him, followed by Long Bing's voice, "We are ready, you can turn around now."
