Chapter 6 Bizarre Crystal Book Coffin
"Be careful, everyone, don't slip!"

At night, the dim moonlight shrouded Yufeng Mountain, along the slope of the natural lake, the archaeologists walked towards the bottom of the lake little by little.A month ago, it was still a natural lake, but now the lake has been drained and turned into a big pit.

The natural lake is nearly 50 meters deep, and the book coffin is buried at the bottom of the lake at about 47 meters.

It rained here the day before yesterday, and the soil on the slope was still wet, and it was a bit muddy to walk on. All the archaeologists put on high boots and proceeded cautiously towards the bottom of the lake.

"Ah Xing, walk slowly, watch out for falling!"

Following the archaeologists, after a few minutes, Liu Xing also successfully reached the bottom of the lake. At this time, a square hole appeared in front of him.

The side of the hole was about two meters long. Liu Xing took a step forward and glanced into the hole. It was pitch black, and there seemed to be a long tunnel inside, but he didn't know where the tunnel would lead.

"This hole is the entrance to the book tomb, and the book coffin is placed inside. The light in the hole is weak, everyone be careful."

After a few simple instructions, the archaeologists walked into the cave one after another. Professor Juan entered first, Liu Xing second, Liu Shiming third, and other archaeologists followed closely. Fatty walked last.

As soon as he walked into the cave, Liu Xing's chest thumped and his breathing became rapid. Walking in such a strange dark tomb, he couldn't help feeling a little scared.Liu Shiming was worried that Liu Xing would run around, and kept holding Liu Xing's arm tightly with both hands.

With the light of the lighting, Liu Xing looked around. The tunnel in the tomb was bigger than imagined. It was made of huge white rocks. The rocks were about ten meters long and two meters high. traces of man-made digging.

"This book tomb is really a big project. This huge rock must weigh at least 100 tons. It takes a lot of manpower and material resources to transport such a heavy rock to the top of the mountain, and then build such a long tunnel at the bottom of the lake on the top of the mountain. ?”

Looking at the huge rocks around the tunnel, Liu Xing secretly marveled. His doubts were also the doubts of other archaeologists.

Even in today's high-tech civilization, it is not an easy task to transport such a huge rock weighing up to [-] tons to the top of Yufeng Mountain.

Everyone can't help but have a question in their hearts: How was this ancient tomb built?And who built it?

"There seems to be no way ahead, it's already the bottom of the tomb."

After walking about 50 meters, Liu Xing stopped, squinted his eyes, and saw a white box on the ground of the cave ahead. The box was in a long style, about two meters long, one meter wide, and the size It looks similar to an ordinary coffin.

The whole body of the box is white and crystal clear. Under the illumination of the light, it glows with faint fluorescence, like a crystal, shining brightly and eye-catching.

"This is the book coffin that was just unearthed?"

Liu Xing was a little curious. He walked to the white box, and when he saw the smooth, mirror-like shell of the box, he couldn't help reaching out his hand to touch it.At this time, Liu Shiming stopped it in time, and whispered: "Ah Xing, don't touch it randomly."

While speaking, Professor Juan and other archaeologists also surrounded the white box, and the lighting equipment was aimed at the box.

"Professor Hu, what is this box?"

"According to my analysis, this should be a coffin for storing books."

"There are books stored in this box?"

"This is just a guess... huh? This coffin seems a little strange."

Professor Juan bent down, holding a magnifying glass in his hand, carefully inspecting the white coffin in front of him.

The surface of the entire book coffin was spotless and spotless. It was hard to imagine that it had just been excavated from the ground.The book coffin seemed to be completely closed. Professor Juan searched the book coffin up, down, left, and right, but found no gaps or switches, just like a giant cuboid white ice cream.

Professor Juan touched the outer shell of the book coffin and found that it was very hard. He tapped it lightly a few times, making a crisp sound like knocking on a crystal.

"How do you open this coffin?"

After searching for a long time, Professor Juan found nothing, and several other archaeologists were also at a loss.Since it is a book coffin, there should be an opening, but there is not even a single gap in the shell.

"Is there any mechanism in the book coffin?"

Liu Xing suddenly uttered a sentence, and all the archaeologists looked at each other. Professor Juan pondered for a moment, and analyzed, "What the little ghost said is not impossible. The book coffin is the box used by ancient novelists to store books. To prevent books from being stolen, it is possible that a mechanism was designed in the book coffin."

Another archaeologist was puzzled: "But there seems to be nothing on the shell of the book coffin. If there is a mechanism, where is the mechanism?"

Professor Juan suggested: "Let's all look for it!"

So, several archaeologists got busy, reaching out their hands to touch the outer shell of the book coffin, knocking, looking for the mechanism of the book coffin, Liu Shiming couldn't help being curious, and walked to the book coffin, touching it a few times book coffin.

Seeing that everyone was touching the book coffin, Liu Xing was not polite anymore. He mixed with the archaeologists, fished in troubled waters, stretched out his right hand, and gently touched the outer shell of the book coffin with his fingers. It was slippery and icy, like touching ice. same as above.

hum!
Suddenly, the book coffin shook slightly, and everyone jumped in fright, and at the same time stepped back a few steps. Before everyone could react, there was a bang, and white light suddenly rushed from the surface of the book coffin. The white light was stronger than the lighting. It was a hundred times more dazzling, instantly illuminating the entire tomb, as if it were daytime, everyone was blinded by the shock, and turned their heads to avoid it.

After a while, the white light gradually dimmed, and the tunnel returned to its original state.

"Di-"

At this time, a crisp electronic sound sounded in the cave, and the upper surface of the book coffin lit up like a huge LCD screen.

Seeing this scene, everyone was a little dumbfounded. Liu Xing rubbed his eyes, and saw that the shell of the book coffin seemed to have turned into an LCD screen, and there was a set of touch keyboards on the screen, which looked like a touch LCD screen.

"[Beep! Please enter the password.]"

The electronic sound sounded again, and a string of words appeared on the LCD screen on the surface of the coffin.

password?

The archaeologists were all stunned. The book coffin was even weirder than they imagined. Not only did it have an LCD screen, but it also had a password.

Professor Juan looked at the LCD screen of the book coffin, and said strangely: "This book coffin seems to be a product of the technological age, and it is unlikely that it was made by people hundreds of years ago."

An archaeologist agreed: "Professor Hu is right. How could humans have such advanced technology hundreds of years ago? But where did this coffin come from?"

Liu Xing touched the book coffin, and found that the outer shell was not as cold as before. With a little warmth, he said, "What is the code of the book coffin?"

Everyone looked at each other, you look at me, I look at you, Professor Juan said: "The origin of this coffin is unknown, how can we know what its password is?"

Liu Xing said: "If it doesn't work, just smash it open with a hammer..."

Professor Juan glared at him: "Little devil, don't mess around. This book coffin is an unearthed cultural relic, how can you break it open?" Looking at the prompt message displayed on the surface of the book coffin, the old man showed helplessness, "Since the book coffin requires a password, Let's just enter a few passwords to try, Shi Ming, you can enter a few passwords to see."

"En." Liu Shiming stood in front of the book coffin, touched a few buttons on the touch screen on the surface of the book coffin with dexterous fingers, and entered a password "1234567."

"[Di! Sorry, the password you entered is wrong, please re-enter.]"

"7654321."

"[Di! Sorry, the password you entered is wrong, please re-enter.]"

"8888888."

"[Di! Sorry, the password you entered is wrong, please re-enter.]"

……

Liu Shiming entered nine passwords one after another, but none of them were correct. There was no change in the book coffin. The archaeologists around couldn't help shaking their heads. Could it be that the book coffin can't be opened?

When everyone was wondering, Liu Shiming entered the password for the tenth time, and the situation suddenly turned around.

"[Di! Sorry, you have entered the wrong password more than 10 times, do you want to use the password reminder function?]" A new message appeared on the screen on the surface of the book coffin.

Password prompt function?

Liu Shiming decisively clicked the "Yes" option.

"[Di! Password prompt: Excuse me, who is the protagonist of "Legend of the Condor Heroes"?]"

Seeing the string of words displayed on the coffin, Liu Shiming frowned slightly, thought for a while, and asked puzzledly, "The Legend of the Condor Heroes? What is this?"

Professor Juan stepped forward, carefully looked at the information displayed on the coffin, scratched his head, and speculated: "Added a title, it seems to be the name of a book?"

"The title? What is "The Legend of the Condor Heroes", I have never heard of it." Liu Shiming looked at the surrounding archaeologists, "Have you ever heard of the book "The Legend of the Condor Heroes"?"

Everyone looked at each other and shook their heads.

"I haven't either. It's the first time I heard the title of the book today. What is the origin of the protagonist of "The Legend of the Condor Heroes"?"

"The Legend of the Condor Heroes? The title of the book is strange. What is a vulture? Why do you want to shoot it?"

"Should it be a kind of bird?"

"Let's stop guessing and check it out on the Internet."

After talking here, an archaeologist took out his laptop, logged on to the Internet, and began to search for information about "The Legend of the Condor Heroes" with a search engine.

Liu Shiming, Professor Juan and other archaeologists all surrounded the computer screen.

"The Legend of the Condor Heroes?"

Seeing this group of people in a hurry, Liu Xing, who was standing aside, was also a little dazed, thinking to himself: Isn't "The Legend of the Condor Heroes" a martial arts novel written by Jin Yong?On the earth, "The Legend of the Condor Heroes" has been remade into TV series many times, including Huang Rihua's version in 1983, Li Yapeng's version in 2003, and Hu Ge's version in 2008... Strange, this is not the earth, how could it be There is "Legend of the Condor Heroes"?
