Chapter 526 The tomb is opened
At this time, Qing San and others had already rowed the boat over.
Ye Bai gave them the porcelain altar where the female ghost was stored. The female ghost was still alive, so she couldn't put it into the space.
In the end, Bai Si, who was more cautious, put the porcelain altar into his backpack and hung it on his chest for protection.
After exiting the ghost cave, the sky was extremely dark and there were not many stars in the sky.
The sounds of mosquitoes and frogs could be heard from the nearby rainforest.
Ye Bai asked everyone to disperse and search for nearby signs, and soon found Bai Yi in the woods.
"Third Master, you are here, I have been eaten by mosquitoes in the past two days." Bai Yi's face was covered with dirt, and there were indeed many big red pustules on his neck and arms.
"Find a quiet place and tell me the situation."
Bai Yi brought everyone to the small tent where he was hiding, and told in detail all the information that Bai Er had received in the past few days.
"Third Master, the leader is Zhang Qishan. In addition, there is Zhang Zhihuai in this team, and there is also a Taoist named Luo..."
Ye Bai nodded. It seemed that his guess was right. It was really Zhang Qishan's handiwork.
"What is the origin of the Taoist named Luo?"
"Third Master, Zhang Zhihuai said that Taoist Luo is an evil cult that keeps ghosts in captivity. In addition, there are two Qin brothers from southern Xinjiang who are with Taoist Luo. They both have special skills and were recruited by "it".
But these two people have never left the tent, and Bai Er said he couldn't find out the truth."
Ye Bai smiled: "Zhang Zhihuai...have they discovered the ancient tomb now?"
"Hey, Third Master, I was just about to tell you that on the first day they did dig out something, hundreds of heads, which were laid flat in the soil, probably for sacrifice. The next day, that is, yesterday,
Underneath the head, the Zhang family of the Nine Gates used a Luoyang shovel to drive more than ten meters underground, and all they brought out was red blood cement."
"Blood mud, is there a bloody corpse?" Qing San was startled beside him.
Bai Yi glanced at him and then looked at Ye Bai: "There are indeed bloody corpses, but Bai Er didn't see the specific situation. Zhang Qishan got into the robbery cave and solved it alone. When he came out, Zhang Qishan was covered in blood.
, the bloody corpse was also burnt and turned into black coal."
Qing San said in shock: "Dear boy, what a shame! One person can challenge the blood corpses alone. The Nine Sect Buddhas really have some skills. By the way, is the blood on Zhang Qishan's body his own or that of the blood corpses?"
Bai Yi looked at Qing San coldly and uttered one word: "Get out!"
Qing San was a little embarrassed, while Bai San, Bai Si and others on the left and right were trying hard not to laugh.
Bai Yi took a deep breath, tried his best to show a chrysanthemum-like smile on his face, and continued to say to Ye Bai: "Third Master, Zhang Qishan rested in the tent all night, and only went out with his men at noon today. Bai Er and Qing Si also followed.
It's passed, but they haven't sent back any news yet. Maybe the situation outside the tomb is a bit tricky..."
......
The night is approaching, cicadas are chirping all around, and the nearby trees are making a rustling sound.
At this time, Zhang Qishan and his men had dug through the outer seal of the Lu Palace Tomb.
Everyone stood in front of a robbery cave. The robbery cave was wide and deep, and the soil around it had been cleared away.
A large brick wall blocked the crowd.
Taoist Luo couldn't help but said: "Keep digging. It's so dark. Let's break through this wall and let's go eat."
After saying that, it’s time to touch the brick wall.
"If you don't want to die, it's best not to touch it." Zhang Zhihuai said coldly.
Luo Daoren retracted his hand subconsciously: "Is there a mechanism behind this wall?"
Zhang Qishan walked to the brick wall and knocked on it, and heard an empty sound.
There is a layer behind this wall.
Zhang Qishan's voice sounded: "In ancient times, there was a kind of material for alchemy, vitriol, which was usually hidden behind the wall in the wax wall. The wax wall is fragile. If the wall is broken by external force, strong acid will be poured on the person and he will be burned immediately.
There is no skin. To deal with this kind of mechanism, all the turning heads must be taken out. You cannot push it, let alone smash it."
Zhang Zhihuai smiled, took a step back, and motioned to Zhang Qishan: "Master Buddha is so proficient in the mechanisms under the tomb, it seems that this wall will not be a problem for Master Buddha, please do it, Master Buddha!"
"Lord Buddha, you are still injured, let me do it."
Zhang Qiwen stepped forward, but was stopped by Zhang Qishan: "It's okay, I have a sense of proportion."
"Brother Zhihuai, going to the tomb requires everyone to work together. I hope this is the last time." After saying the warning, Zhang Qishan stretched out two fingers and placed them on the wall, touching along the small cracks in the bricks.
Not long after, I saw him frowning, exerting force with his fingers, and an earth brick was pulled out in an instant.
Seeing this, Taoist Luo clapped his hands and applauded: "Jiumen Zhang Dafo is indeed worthy of his reputation. His method of getting down to the tomb is really superb and powerful."
However, he looked around and found that only he, a layman, was clapping his hands, while the others were silent.
Daoren Luo laughed dryly twice and then put his hand down.
Bai Er and Qing Si, who were standing outside the crowd, were a little shocked when they saw this scene.
"Si'er, you've been practicing hair mound finger for many years. How about I let you go, can you pull it out?"
Qingsi raised his hand and compared it: "No, Zhang Qishan's fingers are long and flexible. I can't compare with the foundation he has laid since childhood. Unless I use internal force to pull it out, the stone bricks may be shattered by internal force."
."
Bai Er nodded: "There is indeed a gap. Among us, perhaps only Qing Yi can do it."
"But Brother Bai, what do you mean by Zhang Qishan asking us to follow him? Isn't he afraid that we will tip off the outside world?"
Bai Er explained: "There are many reasons for keeping us. I can't explain it at the moment. As long as you know that from Zhang Qishan's point of view, it is more beneficial to him to keep us here. Besides, the enemy in front of you is more powerful than the enemy hidden in front of you."
Enemies in darkness are easier to deal with."
Qing Si nodded with understanding.
People from the Jiumen Zhang family have already peeled off the wall bricks from the inside, and inserted needles into the wax wall to release the alumic acid in the wall.
Without the alum acid mechanism, everyone worked together to break a large hole in the wall, revealing a dark stone chamber.
There is a whole stone slab on the ground, which is covered with ancient characters.
The stone slabs are arranged in a pattern similar to Bagua, with the larger ones toward the outside and the smaller ones toward the middle.
There are eight extinguished ever-burning lamps in the room, and in the middle is a four-legged square tripod. The top of the tomb above the tripod is engraved with the sun, moon and stars.
On the south side of the tomb, there is a stone coffin facing the wall. Behind the coffin is a walkway that seems to be going down, but it is unknown where it leads.
Bai Er made a vague gesture to Qing Si, who nodded and disappeared into the crowd.
Zhang Qishan had been paying attention to the actions of Bai Er and others. He didn't say anything when he saw this. He just asked everyone to clean up the stone bricks and prepare to enter the stone chamber.
Zhang Zhihuai seemed to recognize the ancient characters on the stone slab. Just as he was about to step into the stone chamber, his face suddenly turned pale. He seemed to have thought of something and took it back angrily.
Many of the people he brought with him were once members of the Wang family. They followed Zhang Zhihuai only because the Wang family withdrew from the mainland.
All of them are good at observing words and emotions and are good at saving lives.
Seeing Zhang Zhihuai's actions, they also stopped and turned around to help the Zhang family in Jiumen move stones and bricks.
Bai Er saw this, shook his head slightly, took small steps, and unknowingly reached the exit of the robbery cave.
Seeing this, Zhang Qishan frowned slightly, but instead of rushing to let people enter the tomb, he waved his hand, and several men from the Zhang family of the Nine Gates fired flint weapons and lit eight everlasting lamps.
The entire stone chamber instantly became brighter, and the patterns on the sarcophagus and the four-legged tripod were clearly visible.
