Chapter 2 Life is hanging by a thread to explore ancient tombs

After hanging up his phone, Wu Weiyi came to the door of the tomb and found that it was already a little dawn. He roughly calculated the time. It was half an hour before their group of people entered the tomb and robbed the tomb. Wu Weiyi thought that the group of tomb robbers were probably going to move things out. Time was tight, so he couldn't take care of so much, so he climbed into the tomb from the exploded hole alone.

This group of tomb robbers seemed to be a habitual offender. They actually crawled down from the explosion gap, and there was a corridor. The left and right sides were slightly narrow, so they could only allow one person to walk there.

After getting off the corridor, after walking a few steps, it was already pitch black and I couldn't see anything clearly. Wu Weiyi had to take out a flashlight, move forward carefully, step by step. He was also very nervous, afraid of meeting the tomb robbers in the corridor.

On the walls on both sides of the corridor, there were painted patterns everywhere. Because they were covered in dust, the color luster did not fade at all. If it were on weekdays, Wu Weiyi would have to study it carefully. But now, the situation is at a critical moment, so he would not have the time to watch the murals around him.

I don’t know how far I had walked in the corridor, but I turned a few more bends. I felt that the slope of the ground was getting bigger and bigger, and the height of the corridor was getting higher and higher. When I walked deeper, many side rooms appeared one after another on both sides of the corridor. Wu Weiyi thought that there were probably some burial pits here. Looking at the traces of these tomb doors, Wu Weiyi knew that the target of these tomb robbers should be the main tomb chamber here.

After walking for a while, I saw white fires flashing at the corner at the end of the corridor. Wu Weiyi realized in his subconscious mind:

"The tomb robber is indeed right in front of you."

Thinking of this, he walked forward more cautiously, fearing that something would happen. If he made a big move, he would not only alarm the enemy, but he would also be worried about his life.

Wu Weiyi quietly came to the corner and looked inside secretly, but no one was seen for a moment. Wu Weiyi thought:

"Where did these people go? After pursuing them all the way, it was a dead end to this side. How come there are still no figures of tomb robbers?"

While doubting, Wu Weiyi poked his head out to observe further.

I saw that the main tomb door was half open, and there were three people lying on the ground. There were still white phosphorus fires flashing in the corner. Seeing this, Wu Weiyi thought about it secretly:

"I heard from teachers that there are many miasma in the ancient tomb, and living people will be poisoned if they are inhaled. Did the three of them be attacked by the poisonous miasma in the main tomb chamber when they opened the tomb door? No... Then why am I okay?"

He was suspicious, but he walked up to check it carefully. He touched the three people's pulse.

"Fortunately, I just fainted. Hey, I will die if I do evil. I wish you tomb robbers, I can't escape this place."

Seeing this, Wu Weiyi was about to leave the corridor and go outside to meet Team Leader Song and the others. But his eyes glanced at the direction of the main tomb chamber and saw a white light shot out from the main tomb chamber.

"It's strange, how could there be white light in this tomb?"

Wu Weiyi thought about it again:

"It's better to go in and find out."

At this time, Wu Weiyi's curiosity was stoked by the mystery of the main tomb. Wu Weiyi understood that even if he participated in a series of archaeological excavations together in the future, it would probably be unique to be able to explore the main tomb at such a close opportunity as now!

Thinking of this, Wu Weiyi followed the direction of the white light and went to the main tomb chamber step by step.

Before he could enter the tomb, he felt a breeze blowing from the tomb, and there was a hint of coolness on his face. Wu Weiyi couldn't help but take a deep breath, and suddenly felt refreshed. Compared with the depressing and dull corridor, it was a world of difference.

But for some reason, the more Wu Weiyi went in, the more he felt that his body was sucked into the room with a strange force.

Wu Weiyi used a flashlight to shine at the place where the suction power came from. However, he was startled again. He saw that there were eight square cauldrons of equal sizes lined up around the tomb chamber. These square cauldrons were all as high as humans, and another square cauldron seemed extremely special and placed in the middle of the room. In front of this square cauldron was a coffin.

Wu Weiyi saw a beam of light above the tripod and sprinkled on the tripod. Wu Weiyi looked up at the top and found that there was a natural awl-shaped deep well above the tomb chamber, which directly reached the outside world. The strange wind in the tomb chamber just now blew down from the wellhead.

And the white light that sprinkled from the wellhead was reflected from the surface of the square cauldron in the middle toward the main tomb door. This is how the white light that Wu Weiyi saw outdoors just now came from.

"This tomb is really new! In the past, the tombs were all completely closed places, and because they were afraid of being excavated by tomb robbers, they hid their coffins tightly. This tomb is a good one. Not only does it lead directly to the outside world, but it has never been stolen for so many years. It is a miracle!"

Suddenly, another strange wind blew down from the wellhead on the top, which raised the yellow dust on the ground. Wu Weiyi quickly covered his mouth and nose.

"These dust should be the raw material of the eternal lamp - yellow phosphorus powder. By the way! The reason why the three people fainted just now was mostly because they inhaled too much yellow phosphorus smoke. As soon as the door of the tomb opened, the breeze raised the yellow phosphorus dust on the ground at the door. The tomb robbers inhale too much, and thus got poisoned by phosphorus. Fortunately, these people are all wearing rubber-soled shoes, otherwise the yellow phosphorus dust will catch fire when it rubs, and even the real gods will be unable to save it."

When Wu Weiyi thought of this, his whole body trembled again. Looking at the middle position, he found that the body of the square cauldron was actually illuminated by the white light, and the whole body was shining with a silver color.

"This color! Is this square cauldron made of silver? No, let alone the purity of the so-called silverware in that era. Even if it is really a silverware, after a long period of contact with the outside world, it will inevitably lead to the silverware being black and yellow. It is impossible to preserve it to this day and retain this luster..."

While thinking, Wu Weiyi continued to approach the square tripod in the middle. However, he found that his phone was getting hot in his hand at this time, just like he had answered the phone for a long time. He quickly glanced at the phone, but at this time there was no signal of the phone at all.

"All this is really strange. Since the mobile phone has no signal, the wireless transmission coil does not have induced current, so why does it get hot?"

Just when Wu Weiyi was puzzled, he found that the electronic watch on his wrist was also in chaos. The minute hand and second hand of his electronic watch were constantly spinning counterclockwise, and the electronic digital display part also lit up and turned into four "8".

"It seems that this square tripod must be a strong magnetic thing!"

In order to confirm his own statement, Wu Weiyi took out a keychain from his pocket and threw it towards the square tripod. He only heard a loud "dong" sound of impact, and the key ring was firmly sucked by the square tripod. Moreover, when the collision sound of the collision was transmitted into Wu Weiyi's ears, he felt a sudden dullness in his chest, as if a heavy object was smashing heavily on his chest.

"My God! What the hell is this? The magnetic force of this square cauldron is so powerful! Is this really a bronze ritual vessel from the pre-Qin period? No! Bronze ware should not have such magnetic properties at all. And... and even a stone with extremely strong magnetic properties will not remain magnetic after being melted and cast! This is a basic physical common sense!"

Wu Weiyi didn't dare to go forward at this time, and he didn't plan to pick up the keychain again, for fear that something would happen again when he went forward. He wanted to run outside the tomb chamber, but was surprised to find that there was only a crack left at this time, but fortunately it was enough for one person to enter and exit. It turned out that this tomb door was also very particular, and the stone was polished with hard magnets. Moreover, the polarity of the tomb door was consistent with the polarity of the square tripod, so the tomb door was closed out at an extremely slow speed. It seemed like a stone door that would automatically close! But for some reason, the stone tomb door suddenly closed so much at this moment.

Wu Weiyi quickly escaped through the crack in the door, and something even stranger happened! The group of tomb robbers who were lying at the door of the tomb door just now disappeared, and there was no trace of them lying on the ground!

"How come this place is so evil! Leave quickly and should not stay for a long time."

Before Wu Weiyi could sort out his thoughts, he never thought that he would encounter the group of tomb robbers running from the corridor again.

"Boss! Someone! Why do people appear in this tomb? Is this person a human or a ghost?"

"Don't be afraid, he is a human or a ghost, he is the only one. Go up and do him!"

The group of tomb robbers actually rushed towards Wu Weiyi with the guy in their hands.

Wu Weiyi was already scared to death at this time, so he quickly turned around and ran back. When there was no way to go at the end of the corridor, he rushed back to another test of the stone tomb door and entered the main tomb room. The three people who robbed the tomb also came in with Wu Weiyi. Seeing this, Wu Weiyi knew that he had no way to escape and complained secretly:

"I really didn't expect that I would pursue these three tomb robbers all the way, but eventually turned into these three thieves and chased me in reverse!"

The three of them caught up with Wu Weiyi, but saw him hiding behind Fang Ding, so they shouted at him:

"How do you know that the three of us will come here! What do we mean by waiting here? And... Are you a human or a ghost!"

Wu Weiyi couldn't understand:

"It was obvious that they entered the tomb before me, but why did they ask as if I was waiting for them here?"

Wu Weiyi had no choice but to say:

"You...you group of tomb robbers have done good things by themselves, but instead... come and ask me?"

Wu Weiyi was also trembling with fear that his words would anger the bandits.

The three tomb robbers were also surprised:

"Is this person capable of knowing what is unknown? Why can we enter the tomb before us, and also know that the three of us will come here to rob the tomb today?"

The three of them dared not respond, so they had to press forward step by step towards Wu Weiyi. Seeing that the situation was critical, Wu Weiyi suddenly thought that when he hit the square cauldron just now, his chest suddenly felt dull. So he couldn't care about it so much, so he picked up his cell phone and smashed it on the edge of the square cauldron.

With another "bang", Wu Weiyi almost lost his mind and fainted. However, the three tomb robbers seemed to be under the rush and took a few steps back. Like Wu Weiyi before, they were all holding their chests, feeling a little bored.

Not long after, the three tomb robbers finally recovered. Seeing that Wu Weiyi seemed to have some strange skills, he did not dare to move forward rashly. When Wu Weiyi saw the three thieves standing up again, he thought they wanted to plot against him here. Therefore, he didn't care about his body and went to the edge of the square cauldron and slammed three times with his cell phone.
