Chapter 26 Chaos
I screamed and couldn't control my neck anymore. I suddenly turned my head to look at the face of the female corpse. I saw that the face of the female corpse was covered with a layer of black air. The eye sockets suddenly shrank and the cheekbones protruded.
Even more terrifying.
The corpse has changed!
This was the only thought in my mind at the time. The three of them crawled on the ground and retreated several steps away. The young master trembled and said: "These women are so fickle, didn't they not change when they opened the coffin just now? You can change anyway."
!”
Of course I don’t know, but I’m sure we’ve made a mistake somewhere. My so-called knowledge about tomb-robbing Nancrazi is all part of the story. I’m not sure if there are any omissions in the middle.
I shined the flashlight on the coffin and the female corpse was already sitting up. As soon as I shined the flashlight on her head, she immediately turned around. I quickly turned the flashlight to other places and said to the other two people: "Don't breathe, so I can't find you."
!”
They simply pinched their noses and I pointed to a corner to signal us to hide there!
We walked a few steps and suddenly heard the sound of something falling from the coffin behind us. As soon as I heard it, I knew the body was coming down. I quickly turned around and took a photo, but nothing was caught in the coffin. Sure enough, there was nothing in the coffin.
When I looked at the ground again, I was blinded and saw the female corpse lying motionless on the ground like a gecko.
"What's going on? Didn't you say she can't find us if we don't breathe? How come she knows our location?"
I trembled: "Holy crap, I don't know if there is a fourth person near us who hasn't stopped breathing?"
"Impossible!" the young master said. It is indeed impossible. We randomly took a flashlight and looked around to see if there was anyone around.
The young master pulled out his crossbow and shouted: "Damn it, we're dead anyway. Damn it, you know how to do it. Please take care of this bitch. I'll have sex with him today."
As soon as I finished speaking, my feet suddenly became weak and the bricks beneath my feet sank. Before I could understand what happened, my feet suddenly became unstable and I fell down.
I was so dizzy after the fall that I looked around and looked around. There was actually a corridor down there?
I wonder why there is a tunnel above this. Could it be that this ancient tomb is double-layered?
I looked around in confusion. The young master had already pulled us up and shouted: "Stop looking and run."
I quickly got up and ran, not knowing where to go. It was completely dark on both sides. When I saw the young master dragging the girl and running blindly into the darkness on one side, I gritted my teeth and followed.
While running, I saw brightly colored murals on both sides of the corridor and heard the sound of the chains behind me dragging. I had no chance to stop and take a look for myself.
Not long after running, I heard the young master shouting: "Is there a door here?"
I scanned it with my flashlight and saw a huge tomb door standing at the end of the corridor. It was more than twice as big as the tomb door we just saw when we came down from the outside. This wooden door was carved with white jade and had two glass dragons lying on it.
At first glance, it looks like it's alive on the door.
The sound of dragging chains from behind was already there. If we didn't stop, the young master swung his crossbow and asked me to open the tomb door. He wanted to fight with the female corpse behind to delay.
At this time, my hands and feet were so frightened that I couldn't hold the hook. I couldn't even insert it through the gap in the door.
After taking a closer look, I realized that the gap in the huge tomb door was too narrow, and the copper water filled inside couldn't be inserted with the Wanxiang Hook.
When I saw it, I felt terrible. Could it be that our three little lives were ruined here?
When I was panicking, the girl suddenly came to pull me and said: "Look at your feet!"
I looked down and saw that the brick surface of the corridor under our feet had turned into a large bluestone slab. The bluestone slab under our feet was still a little loose when we stepped on it, and it seemed to be hollow.
I suddenly remembered the story those old southern climbers told me. It's called Pigeon Turn. There is a very complicated secret passage under the tomb that leads to the inside of the tomb. This tomb door is actually a decoration and has no intention of letting people in or out of the tomb.
There are six or seven layers of stone seals inside the door, and the stones are stacked on top of each other. Even if you use explosives to blow up the damn tunnel above and collapse it, the door of the tomb cannot be blown open.
I have also seen this kind of mechanism in books, but I didn’t expect that I would still have the fate to see its true face today. This kind of mechanism is very common in the tombs of the Western Han Dynasty. My mind suddenly popped up - could it be that the one here belongs to Liu Qu? The style of the Southern Song Dynasty above is so
Whose tomb is the obvious one?
One bridge leads to all six bridges. I immediately understood what was going on. This damn thing is a tomb within a tomb. The old professor told me a story that one day before the "Cultural Revolution", they received a report that
Where was the robbery hole discovered? He immediately led people to the scene. When he went down, he found that everything inside had been stolen and everything was in a mess. While the old professor was heartbroken, he discovered a strange mark. It turned out that the coffin had been moved aside from the coffin bed.
.
The old professor was surprised. He asked people to move the coffin and take a look. I dug a big hole with the bricks under the coffin, which is the bottom of the Ming Tomb. The dark place underneath was a robbery hole. The old professor immediately wondered what was going on.
I sent someone down to take a look and found out what was going on. There was actually a small tomb from the Southern Dynasties directly under the Ming tomb. It was really a tomb within a tomb.
The tomb robber went down to the small Southern Dynasty tomb but suffocated to death. The old professor said that maybe his accomplices pushed him down and sealed him inside. But the coffin weighed two tons. How could his accomplices push it?
No one can tell clearly if it has to be moved.
A large number of fragments flashed through my brain in an instant. The young master on the other side had already opened the bluestone board below. At this time, the fishy smell was very close to me. I couldn't care about anything anymore, so I turned over and jumped out of the pigeon fan.
Secret passages.
The secret passage below was extremely narrow and one could barely stand upright without squatting down. The young master quickly covered the bluestone board above and heard a bang. The top shook violently as if something was standing on the bluestone board.
Zombies won't open the door, I pray in my heart.
After that shock, the surroundings suddenly became quiet. We took a sigh of relief and looked around. We found that the secret passage was about four people wide. Basically, this road is not for people to walk on, but is called the first road, which means that the dead inside are allowed to ascend to heaven.
At that time, it was difficult for everyone to walk on the road. This kind of thing was often found above the tomb gate, which was called the Kaixian Gate. There were also people walking on the ground. Liu Qu liked digging the ground, so he probably chose it on the ground like this.
The young master urged me to go inside. In order to prevent theft, traps such as quicksand are sometimes set up inside to prevent theft. Once the movement is difficult, there is no room for maneuver.
A few people crawled to the other side of the secret passage while half-prone. It took about a cigarette to reach the end of the other side. At the end of the secret passage, there was a beast head carved on both sides. There were some reliefs on both sides, which were sent out by officials. It meant you
Your soul comes out from here and all the officials are sending you to heaven to become an immortal.
There was a stone above the beast's head, which weighed about five to six hundred kilograms. The two of us lifted it up with our shoulders and used all our strength to pry out a gap in the board.
I stuck half of my head out and took a photo with my flashlight, then crawled out one after another and looked around to see that the four people were already impressed by the aura of the tomb.
This is a huge circular tomb, half the size of a football field. I saw twelve huge pillars standing on both sides of the tomb, supporting the top of the Hades Hall (the Hades Hall is a pavilion built inside the tomb, usually
It was built based on the life of the owner of the tomb.) In the middle of each pillar is an ever-burning lamp, which is now extinguished. In the middle of the tomb chamber, there is a pyramid-like high platform. There are four and two steps on all sides of the high platform. There is a treasure cap on each of the four corners of the high platform.
Cover up the things on the high platform.
There was a moat-like depression surrounding the high platform. We ran to see how deep it was, not knowing what was underneath.
This "coffin guard river" is about six people wide. Even if we install a spring, we probably can't jump over it. The girl pointed to the top of our head and said: "There is only one way to get across by the beam above."
I looked up and saw that the beams above showed a radial structure. The two pillars had a horizontal beam supporting six beams, which crossed in the middle to form the shape of an umbrella. The carvings on it were all very exquisitely painted.
The young master took out the rope and shouted: "Look at my flying bolide hook." He put on the iron hook, swung the rope in and flew up into the air. But before he reached the crossbar, he started to fall and fell into the "Coffin Guard River".
.
It seems that throwing this thing is not as easy as in the movie. I helped the young master pull the rope up. Unexpectedly, after pulling it twice, it seemed to be stuck and couldn't be pulled up.
We pulled the rope to the side of the coffin bearer river and looked down, only to see that the rope was stretched straight and seemed to be hooked on something underneath.
We couldn't cross the coffin river without a rope. The young master and I pulled hard and the thing pulled us up a little bit. So the two of us tried our best to pull it. A black thing actually came out from under the "coffin guard river" for us.
Pulled up.
We pulled this black thing to the shore and immediately smelled a very unpleasant putrid smell. It was a corpse, and it was not an ancient corpse. I saw the blue work clothes on the corpse.
We turned the body over and saw that his body was covered with sand and smelled like yellow sand that I had never smelled before. I took out the kettle and poured the water on the face of the body. Suddenly the girl screamed:
"professor!"
When I saw the corpse's face, it immediately turned pale and I couldn't believe my eyes.
This body turned out to be Professor Wang, who died in Donghua Town four days ago. But why is his body here?
There was a backpack on the professor's body. We opened his backpack and found that it was full of tomb robbing tools. We immediately understood everything.
Didn't the professor's memorial service have a farewell ceremony and everyone didn't pay homage to his remains? The professor didn't die at all at that time? So when he brought so many tools and died in this ancient tomb, did he have the same idea as us to rob the tomb?
I thought of the corpse in the gap on the pond wall outside and suddenly understood everything. It must be the professor who discovered that the curse of the ancient coffin was real. He faked his death to gain time and then brought some people over to look for Liu Qu's tomb. But this secret was revealed to the old man.
Bian discovered what the note Lao Bian wrote to us before he died turned out to be.
But how did the professor die here? Looking at the professor's rotten face, I can't tell whether he died from a curse or died by falling into the "Coffin Bearer River". Maybe the professor has obtained the river seal.
?
At this time, the young master suddenly thought of something and screamed, hurriedly pulled off the hook from the professor's body, threw it up to the rafter, and then asked us to climb up!
I don’t know why he was so nervous all of a sudden. He immediately followed and climbed up. Several people climbed up to the rafters and looked down. The river was already covered with the strange tentacles we saw under Sand Town.
It was twisted into a ball and there was a huge human face in the middle of the tentacles.
As soon as I saw this scene, I immediately recognized what was below. I thought, "Oh, isn't this the strange octopus-like thing we saw in the Yellow River?"
In the middle of the high platform is a white jade coffin bed. What makes us feel strange is that there is not a coffin on the coffin bed, but a corpse wearing armor lying on it.
The young master, who had seen a lot, was surprised and asked me: "What the hell did the body come out?"
I have never seen this kind of burial method and I dare not draw any conclusions at once.
I thought to myself that this high platform placed in the underground palace is probably a tomb. The blown coffin may be inside this high platform, and the armored corpse on it may be just a gimmick, maybe a dummy.
After greeting them and asking them to be careful, the three of them walked towards the high platform.
Almost every foot shook as we walked, and we were careful to be on guard against the traps set up here. But the young master told us that there are generally very few traps in the tomb chamber, because the layout of the tomb chamber emphasizes peace and tranquility, and it is against the laws of nature to set up traps here.
The basic principle of human unity.
When we came to the jade platform, we couldn't help but hold our breath and wanted to see if the corpse on it was a real person or a fake one.
The corpse was wearing a six-eyed mask. Nothing could be seen in the mask's eyes. It was pitch black. It seemed that everything inside the armor had rotted away, leaving only an empty armor shell.
We took off his mask and saw that the body inside was gone, but there was a small ring on his brain that looked very similar to the pattern on the ancient bronze coffin.
