Chapter 136
Reversal of priorities
I was really scared, but within just a few moments, I was covered in sweat.
Perhaps he was confused by my surprise. Master Qi was as if he was dead and didn't know how to move. Instead, he kept asking "Ahhh" questions behind me.
My whole body was in despair, and I was really afraid of what would come of it. There were so many local masters who didn’t want to bring in newbies, but they were afraid that they would become a burden at the critical moment. If I had known this, I wouldn’t have let him go even if I had to go to hell.
I came to transport the earth, but unfortunately there is no regret medicine to buy in the world. Now that I am stuck inside, I am so anxious that I wish I could turn into a flying monkey. I am too lazy to talk to him any more. I shine my feet hard on his face and go crazy.
kick.
The master was in pain and finally began to retreat slowly.
I didn't dare to express my anger. I stared straight ahead and started to retreat. I prayed in my heart that God would open his eyes and not let me die here.
If I guessed correctly, this is something called fire clay. The actual appearance should be similar to that of many cold medicines. It is a small earth-yellow particle with extremely strong water absorption. When buried in the soil, it can absorb the surrounding soil.
All the moisture in it is absorbed, and it eventually turns into something with a texture similar to that of plasticine. When exposed to air, it will explode within a short time.
I'm not a great academic, and I don't know anything about chemistry. I don't know what the specific ingredients of this thing are, but this thing has definitely not been applied in real life. It is used to fight against tomb robberies and is mixed into the covering soil.
, after absorbing water, it is no different from soil. It is impossible to guard against it. Many local people were blown to pieces by this thing.
Soon, I heard Qi Ye screaming and retreating.
At this time, a little red light flashed in front.
It is a color almost like charcoal fire, which is a typical sign before the fire clay explodes. At this time, the fire clay will turn red all over, just like red-hot charcoal.
My pupils shrank sharply, and I quickly retreated with my hands and feet. Just when most of my body had retreated, and only my head was still in the cave, the fire clay exploded with a sound like thunder, and flames roared towards me.
It was rolling towards me, but before the flames could engulf me, a wave of scorching hot air hit me hard.
My mind went blank for a moment, and I didn't have time to react. I was directly knocked away by this terrible air wave. I felt a severe burning pain on my face. I was blown three or four meters away. After I landed, I opened my mouth and spurted out a mouthful of blood.
, instinctively covering his face and wailing, rolling on the ground.
"Er Gouzi, Wei Jingzhe!!"
I heard Zhang Xinya's cry, and she seemed to come up to help me, but I simply lost my ability to think and kept covering my face.
In fact, I can't tell whether it was pain or fear. The moment I was swept away by the air wave, I felt like I was already dead.
Rumble!
Explosions continued one after another, and the ground was shaking.
Lao Bai and Brother Yao Zi came up and grabbed me and dragged me to one side. Then Brother Yao Zi grabbed my wrist and forced my hand open.
Suddenly, the burning pain became more severe, and my breathing became faster.
My blurred vision gradually returned to normal, and I saw that my hands were covered in blood.
Brother Yaozi shouted anxiously: "Take a deep breath, take a deep breath!!"
I instinctively gasped for air, but the more I gasped, the more itchy my throat became, and finally I started coughing again and again, and bits of blood spattered out with the cough, and it was all over Brother Kitesurf's face.
Brother Yaozi also had no idea and just kept reminding me to take a deep breath.
"This is hurting his internal organs. You will kill him if you do this!"
The old man cursed, raised his arms and pushed Brother Yaozi aside, lowered his body and punched me in the stomach.
I felt a hot current rushing up in my abdominal cavity, like the uncontrollable vomiting feeling after being drunk. I bowed my body and vomited loudly, but in addition to some gastric juice and food residue, the vomited out was also mixed with a lot of blood.
"Fuck you!"
Lao Bai roared angrily and rushed forward to fight Lao Diao Ye to the death.
However, my mind gradually recovered at this time, and I grabbed him.
I don’t know if I can save my life. After Lao Diaoye punched me, my breath did become much smoother...
"Did you see, if you treat him like that, he will choke to death!"
Lao Diaoye pushed Lao Bai away and said: "Lao Maozi's bombs used to blow up people, injuring their internal organs and lungs, and their stomachs were full of blood. They kept coughing and spraying upwards. If they didn't come out, they would die!"
"
After vomiting, my whole body was sore and weak. I tilted my body and fell to one side. The burning pain on my face was still there, but at least I no longer coughed up blood. The fear in my heart still lingered. I saw Lao Bai and Brother Yao Zi coming up to me.
I asked Brother Yaozi: "Brother, do you think I won't survive tonight?"
I heard before that when the Japanese invaded, many recruits who had just put down their hoes and picked up their guns soon after they went to the battlefield, died not by Japanese guns or bombings, but by shells.
The reason why he was shocked to death is very simple. When the shells fell, he fell directly on the ground. He seemed fine the first day, but he died the next day. All the internal organs in his stomach were damaged by the shock.
I was directly swept away by the air wave of the explosion, and with such symptoms, I instinctively felt that my internal organs must have been damaged.
Brother Yaozi and Lao Bai just comforted me. Lao Diao came up and put one hand on my chest, arched the back of his hand, and kept beating with the other hand, asking me if it hurt.
I said of course it hurt, and I felt like my heart was trembling.
The old man knocked a few more times and said with a smile that I was lucky. It was okay. He had seen people killed by shells. When those people were hit on the chest, it was like their flesh was being torn to pieces. Their screams were very miserable.
, and all the seven orifices will slowly overflow with blood. I just feel pain at most. It should just hurt the internal organs and draw out the congestion. I won’t die. I just need to go back and recuperate after the incident.
Several people were busy taking out the medical kit and began to bandage my face.
They said that I was burned in some places, but it was not serious. After all, I was only burned by the air waves and would not be disfigured.
While they were busy, I finally saw the mountaintop clearly after the explosion. Several long cracks spread across the hillside, as if there had been an earthquake, and everything was in a mess.
If nothing unexpected happens, the thick layer of soil from the entrance to the ancient tomb to the surface should be filled with fire clay. The amount is very large, otherwise it would not be able to explode like this.
As far as I know, the explosive power of this kind of fire clay is not great. It is not even as powerful as black powder, let alone compared with current high explosives such as nitroglycerin and trinitrotoluene. Of course, it will definitely explode to a flesh and blood body.
No problem, and it’s difficult to prevent. This may be why this thing is not widely available.
However, the covering soil was filled with so much fire clay that it really deserves the word "crazy". If I hadn't been cautious and discovered it early, I would have been doomed on this trip.
Not long after, Zhang Xinya finished bandaging me, and my face was covered with bandages, which rivaled those of a mummy.
Probably seeing that I calmed down, Brother Yaozi asked about the actual situation.
After I briefly explained the situation, I heard Lao Bai say: "This should be the anti-theft method of this tomb, right? Why do you say that we are being plotted against?"
I said: "It's very simple. Fire clay only appeared in the Ming Dynasty!"
I remember this very clearly. During the Ming Dynasty, China had already seen the emergence of capitalism. At that time, technology was relatively developed. Firearms and equipment were very common. There was already an awareness of making things in this area. Only then did fire clay appear.
This kind of thing only appeared in the middle and late Ming Dynasty.
But this is an ancient tomb of Donghu.
When did Donghu die?
If there are no accidents, it should be around 200 BC, which is nearly 1,700 years before the emergence of fire clay. Isn’t this strange?
Moreover, when I was shoveling, I felt that something was not right about the five-flowered soil outside.
The pieces of five-flowered soil are huge!
It feels like... it's like it was completely cut from another tomb, covered up, and made a disguise to hide it!
After all, Wuhua soil can be identified at a glance as long as it is broken into pieces. Only by cutting and splicing the whole piece can the texture inside be maintained and difficult to see!
"I extremely suspect that the tomb we moved was stolen by Lao Maozi back then. All the things in the pastoral area came from this tomb!"
I thought for a while and said: "You know, Lao Maozi is not bad at robbing tombs. Since the late Qing Dynasty, their explorers have been wandering around the land of China and have learned the tricks of the Tufuzi. Now that they have found
Once here, it is not impossible to dig a robbery hole at the right location.
The thing that was spying on us took advantage of this hole, filled it with fire clay, and used the moved intact five-flower soil as a cover to disguise the tomb as an untouched tomb.
Let's get down there and kill us all!!
If this is really the case, then this is terrible. It means that the things that are spying on us have been with us for a long time and know us very well. They not only know that we will come here, but also know what our abilities are, and they predict that we will be in this position.
Shovel down!”
The more I talk about it, the more I think it’s possible.
Among the old objects from the pastoral area, only the saddle and the bronze sword were the most precious. Judging from the various traces of those two items, the person who used them during his lifetime must have been something extraordinary.
Brother Yaozi has long said that great people are matched with great places, and this is how we can form this great situation.
Therefore, the saddles and bronze swords in the pastoral area should have come from this tomb, which was indeed stolen by Lao Maozi.
As for who the Lord is who is spying on us in the dark, you can guess it with your eyes closed.
It must be that old fox.
Brother Yaozi thought for a while and said: "This old fox has set up such a trap to kill us, which shows that it has no ability to fight against us now, and it has become timid, fearing that we will ruin its big things here.
!”
Donghu is known as the land of foxes and snakes, and this old fox is most likely the guardian here.
What exactly is it protecting?
Tombs are actually something that is very afraid of being opened. Once a tomb robber touches it, the layout is likely to be ruined.
Back then, when Lao Maozi robbed the tomb, the old fox didn't react much. Now, it has buried fire clay here again and wants to blow us up. Such behavior is very abnormal. If it is really the guardian of Donghu, it will not be afraid of this series of actions.
Is the pattern broken?
Once the pattern is broken, no matter what plans the Donghu survivors had back then, they will all be blinded. You know, they are all dead and now they are all buried here. No matter what their purpose is, they have to rely on the pattern here.
If the old fox wants to blow us up here, there is only one possibility - it is not afraid that the structure here will be ruined!!
In other words, we looked at Feng Shui for a long time, but we didn't find the real key point at all. Instead, we fell into the old fox's plan!
While I was thinking silently, my eyes unknowingly wandered to the four burial pits at the foot of the mountain. My eyes lit up and I sneered: "I see, the priorities are reversed, and the yin and yang are confused. It turns out that this is what he wants to do."
