Chapter 203 Tianmen
The dark clouds hanging over everyone's heads seemed very ominous, full of gloom and desolation.
Qi Tiezui was worried, but couldn't help showing off his knowledge and said: "This kind of celestial phenomenon has been recorded in ancient Feng Shui. The black air between heaven and Han is connected. This celestial sign is called a black pig crossing the river. It is mentioned in "Qingzhu Earth Qi Lun"
"It is said in the book that when the black pig crosses the river, there must be an ancient corpse causing trouble."
"So the corpse energy moves from yin to yang, covering the stars and the moon."
"Is it because of the corpse spirit? As soon as we were about to go into the water, he used the celestial phenomena to intimidate us, which shows that he was also afraid that we would carry his coffin." Chen Yulou spoke with a tone of disdain for King Xian.<
/p>
No one present was intimidated.
Everyone looked at Ye Bai, waiting for the right words.
Now that we have reached this point, no one will back down. No matter how difficult the King Xian is, a struggle is inevitable.
Ye Bai looked into the deep pool, as if he could see the golden treasure box and Muchen Bead hidden in the deepest part.
He has decided on these two things. Unless King Xian comes back from the dead, there is nothing he can do to stop him.
"Come into the water with me!"
The sound fell to the ground, and an elite team of more than ten people led by Ye Bai put on diving equipment and jumped into the deep pool.
The rest of the people camped on the flat ground next to the waterfall. Looking at the weather, it was going to rain heavily here, so the logistics needed to be prepared in advance.
In the deep green pool, the water is freezing cold, and the group of people are swimming through the water like fish.
Ye Baiyou was at the front, followed by Chen Yulou, Partridge Shao and others.
Qi Tiezui, Qi Xiaohei and others did not go into the water during this trip. Only the three of them led the team. The purpose was just to explore the way to the tomb.
There are several tombstone beasts under the water with teeth and claws, and their appearance is ferocious.
After passing the tomb stone beast, Ye Bai took the lead to enter the dark passage, which was a long tomb passage. The stone walls on both sides of the tomb passage were carved with simple patterns.
After a while, Ye Bai and everyone came out of the water. In front of them were large stone steps that went upward gently. Above the stone steps was an empty mountain cave.
Ye Bai used a flashlight to look around, and saw that there were many rusty bronze figures of chariots and horses standing on the high platform. It seemed that this was the guard of honor of chariots and horses displayed at the Xuan Palace Gate.
The three brothers Ye and Bai each led a small team to explore separately, but they did not dare to separate too far apart.
There are more than thirty bronze chariots and horses, many of which are smelted with unevenly proportioned metals. This is a waste of materials and has long since collapsed under the ravages of time.
Ye Bai guessed that the craftsmen who smelted these chariot and horse bronze figures might have been kidnapped by King Xian. Out of resentment, they used poor quality carriages to fool King Xian.
There are many mounds at the end, and hundreds of tortured mummies are lying on them. They are all old and young and strong.
Along the way, King Xian caused a lot of killings.
Everyone piled these mummies in one place, lit a fire, and burned them to comfort the spirits of the dead.
Passing through this mountain cave, everyone saw a blue-gray stone gate standing at the end of the stone slope.
There is also a small door above the stone gate, which is a copper gate tower. The whole is black and the structure is extremely clever.
Chen Yulou sneered and said: "This small door is called Tianmen. It is used for the corpse of the tomb owner to be exhumed and ascended to heaven. It is only found in the tombs of Taoists. I didn't expect that King Xian also built one for himself. But what about becoming an immortal?
It's our turn to be the King of Xian. I think this Tianmen can be used as a ready-made robbery hole for us."
Ye Bai also smiled and stepped forward to examine and explore the gray stone door.
The stone door is so thick that it can't even be pushed. It seems to be stuck inside.
Ye Bai took out the Overlord Gun and hit it several times with the end of the gun. It only shook the entire stone path but did not knock the stone door open.
Seeing dust falling from above his head, Chen Yulou quickly stopped him. He was really afraid that his third brother would collapse the passage.
"The inside should be rammed with bluestone, so why not just walk through the Tianmen." Chen Yulou suggested.
Ye Bai looked at the narrow Tianmen, which only allowed one person to pass through on his stomach. He felt uneasy. It seemed that King Xian built the Tianmen not for himself, but for their tomb robbers.
But at this time, there is no better way, so I can only try to pass through the Tianmen.
The partridge whistle stepped on the walls on both sides, opened the copper sky door, and a cold wind blew out with a rotten and moist smell.
Partridge Whistle turned his head to cover his mouth and nose, and then used his flashlight to shine inside.
Behind Tianmen is a straight and narrow stone path. The flashlight light cannot reach the end, and it is dark in the depths.
"I'll go in and take a look first."
Without waiting for Ye Bai and the others to respond, Partridge Whistle turned over and entered the Tianmen.
Upon seeing this, Ye Bai quickly followed, while Chen Yulou and other brothers stayed outside. The passage inside Tianmen was too narrow, and too many people entering would easily block the exit.
The partridge whistle who was the first to climb into the stone path did not dare to take it lightly. Every time he climbed, his hands groped on the stone walls on both sides in front of his head to prevent traps.
After crawling for about ten meters, Partridge Whistle saw a strange human face in front of him.
The man's face was slightly lowered, and his face was struggling, like a mummy stuck on a stone path.
"What's wrong, second brother?" Ye Bai asked when he saw the partridge whistle stopped.
"It's okay, there's a mummy ahead."
Partridge Whistle crawled forward a few more meters before he could clearly see the physical features of the mummy.
The mummy seemed to have been a craftsman who built the tomb of King Xian, and the clothes were made of rough and simple materials.
But he was penetrated by the long bronze thorns on both sides of the stone path, and his blood dried up and he died.
It is estimated that after King Xian died, he tried to escape from the tomb through Tianmen, but accidentally fell into a trap and died here.
The partridge whistle told Ye Bai about the situation of the mummy and found that the mummy was holding a piece of yellow cloth in its hand.
Partridge Whistle reached out and took out the cloth. There was black writing on it, which was blurry and it was impossible to read any information.
If you are an ordinary craftsman, you should not be able to touch yellow cloth, let alone write on it.
After all, those who could read and write in that era were princes and nobles.
Partridge Whistle became suspicious of the identity of the mummy again, and speculated that the cloth contained information about the inside of King Xian's tomb.
But now, the stone path in front was covered with sharp weapons, and it was obviously blocked. The road was impassable, so the two had to slowly exit.
After coming out, Chen Yulou learned about the situation in the Tianmen Passage from the Partridge Whistle, and he couldn't help but feel a little worried. The blue-gray stone gate could not be opened, and the Tianmen could not pass through. Mr. Xian Wang built the gate but no one would use it.
p>
It was Ye Bai who suggested: "Use explosives. Carefully control the amount of explosives first and try slowly. It shouldn't collapse the passage."
Chen Yulou and Partridge Whistle thought for a while and nodded in agreement.
The person who planted the explosives was Ye Bai's man, who had been following Mo Wu before. He was considered to be Mo Wu's half-disciple and was familiar with explosives.
He first looked at the structure where the stone gate connected to the mountain. After some exploration, he buried a small amount of explosives in a corner of the stone gate.
Seeing this, everyone retreated to a distance. With a roar, a large pit appeared on the ground, and cracks appeared on the blue stone door, but the passage was still not opened.
The guy said: "Third Master, we need to add more weight. You and I should not move further back."
It seems that the guy doesn’t have much confidence either.
Ye Bai patted his shoulder and said: "Put the ignition fuse longer. If something goes wrong, come out first. It's important to save your life."
The man nodded heavily, took a deep breath, and started planting explosives again.
This time, everyone completely exited the stone path and came to the cave where the bronze chariots and horses were stored.
"Boom!"
With the loud noise, the dust and smoke dispersed, and a blue stone door was blown open.
