Chapter 70 My Role Model(1/2)
Cao Zhen came to Wu Liang in a hurry in the middle of the night, precisely because of these eight characters.
Although the soldiers had already dug through the charcoal layer that they had previously discovered with Luoyang shovels, and removed part of the yellow mud layer used to seal the tomb, revealing the extremely regular main structure of the mausoleum underneath.
But after seeing the words on this stone tablet, no one dared to continue taking action.
People at this time believed in ghosts and gods, and they had little experience in tomb robbing and felt guilty. Such a vicious curse would naturally have a considerable deterrent effect on them.
In particular, the color of this curse is so bright, as if the tomb owner used his own blood to draw it stroke by stroke during his lifetime. In addition, the faint fluorescence revealed between the strokes, which is strange and undoubtedly further increases the credibility of the curse.
Everyone present felt chills in their chests.
However, after Wu Liang took a look, he grinned: "Immortal King Guangchuan? I didn't expect that this is actually the tomb of King Liu of Guangchuan. It's really a worthwhile trip."
"No, talented and wise brother, what I want you to read is the last sentence!"
Cao Zhen said helplessly.
"No way, Brother Anmin, do you believe this kind of bluffing curse?"
Wu Liang smiled disdainfully.
After all, he is still a new youth of the 21st century who has been baptized by those garbage "forward curse" messages. Every time he receives such messages, he just replies with "You are dead", and then blocks and deletes the one-stop service.
, I have never forwarded it once, and there have been no problems. Naturally, I will not take this kind of pediatric curse to heart.
If this low-level curse was effective, those ancient tombs would need some kind of anti-theft mechanism. As long as this sentence was engraved on them, the tomb robbers would have become extinct long ago.
"Whether I believe it or not, these words are written in blood, and they look very weird, which always makes people feel uneasy."
Cao Chen said with a frown on his face.
The other soldiers also looked nervous, obviously still very guilty.
"Brother Anmin, have you never seen blood? Blood can't be preserved for such a long time, and it won't have such a bright color after it dries. So this is actually some ordinary red paint filled with some fluorescent powder.
It’s completely bluffing.”
As he spoke, Wu Liang took out his copper dagger and scraped off some of the red paint on the eight characters, and held it in his hand for everyone to see.
Sure enough, these paints still emitted a faint light when they were in Wu Liang's hands.
But they still didn't understand the principle. As a representative, Cao Zhen then asked: "This... talented brother, what is the phosphor?"
"Do you know Luminous Pearl?"
Wu Liang asked with a smile.
"Of course I know, that is a rare treasure."
Cao Chen nodded.
"Grind luminous beads into powder, and the result is fluorescent powder, which can emit such fluorescence at night."
Wu Liangdao.
"real?"
Cao Zhen's eyes lit up, "How rich do you have to be to be willing to grind luminous beads into powder? This King of Guangchuan is too extravagant, right?"
"So what are you waiting for? There is a lot of gold waiting for us down there, so keep digging!"
Wu Liang took advantage of the situation and said.
"Dig! Must dig!"
Upon hearing this, Cao Zhen felt as if he had taken a reassurance, and said with a red face, "Brothers, don't be afraid, I can guarantee with my personality that this curse is definitely a bluff. After I steal this tomb and go back, I will definitely tell the envoy
Your Majesty, I will reward all brothers present here, at least several times as much as you did in Dangshan!"
This guy……
Gold is really a good thing.
Wu Liang was a little funny. He didn't know who was so nervous that he was so nervous just now. Now he dared to vouch for his personality?
…
Such a busy night.
It was not until noon that a stone slab behind the stele was finally pried up by everyone, revealing a rectangular hole about 2 meters wide and 5 meters long.
As expected, no one "died when they opened the tomb", and Cao Zhen and the soldiers breathed a sigh of relief.
The midday sun shines into the cave entrance, and through the rising dust and white mist, a set of stone steps sloping downward appears in front of you.
However, it only illuminated the area within a few meters of the cave entrance, and the rest of the area was still dark.
"It smells so good in here?"
The nearest soldiers then made intoxicated sounds.
"Smells good?"
Upon hearing this, Wu Liang immediately became nervous, rushed over and pushed the people around him away, saying, "Get away! Get away immediately! Everyone exits the pit, and be sure not to smell this aroma!"
Anti-theft devices are installed in many ancient tombs, and poison gas is one of them.
Therefore, it is definitely not a good thing to smell this unusual aroma just after opening the tomb, and it should not be ignored.
During this process, even if Wu Liang tried his best to hold his breath, he still smelled a little bit of fragrance.
This is - medicinal fragrance?
This aroma is mixed with some unique smells of traditional Chinese medicine. Although it cannot be concluded that it must be poisonous gas, it is best not to smell the strange gas, otherwise it will be too late to react until something goes wrong.
Fortunately, all the soldiers were more obedient and had already exited the pit after hearing this.
At this time, Cao Zhen finally found an opportunity to come over and asked a little strangely: "You are a talented and wise brother, is there something wrong with this fragrance?"
"It's hard to say. Anyway, don't go to the tomb for the time being. Order people to guard here. At the same time, pay close attention to the soldiers who were closest to the entrance of the cave. If there is any abnormality in your body, call me immediately."
Wu Liang shook his head and said attentively, "Also, bring the big rooster that we carry with the army. When the smell is a little lighter, ask someone to hang the cage with a rope and put it in."
"I understand this. Chickens can ward off evil spirits. I already learned this when I was in Dangshan last time."
Cao Zhen said quite proudly.
"As expected of Brother Anmin, you can get through everything with just one click."
Wu Liang encouraged with a smile and looked back at Bai Jingjing.
The girl was sitting on a stone not far away, holding her white chin in her hands and looking into the distance, not knowing what she was thinking in her heart.
Did you finally accept your fate after being beaten by me last night?
This is best and saves some trouble.
…
That night.
When the "woman's cry" sounded again, Wu Liang took Cao Zhen down to the pit again and came to the entrance of the cave.
At this moment, the aroma wafting out of the tomb has faded a lot.
At the end of the day, the few soldiers who first smelled the fragrance were all safe and sound.
The big rooster hung into the tomb is still alive and kicking, which can prove that the aroma in the tomb is not poisonous gas, and the air quality should be enough for normal breathing in the tomb.
After all, gases that are usually harmful to humans are generally heavier than air. The big rooster was hung directly to the bottom of the tomb with a rope. If it was still alive after staying there for several hours, as long as there were not too many people
It shouldn't be too much of a problem if you go down.
So Wu Liang selected three soldiers, plus Cao Zhen, Dian Wei and himself, a total of six people went into the tomb to investigate.
As for white jingjing...
"First tie her to the tree next to the military tent, and then two people will keep a close eye on her..."
Wu Liang pondered for a moment and said without mercy.
Tied up?
Cao Zhen and others immediately looked at Wu Liang in confusion.
They still don't know Bai Jingjing's identity, but they only know that Wu Liang seems to be getting along very quickly with her in recent days, and they often sit and "play backgammon" together, talking and laughing, without Dian Wei.
Other times, I have to take it with me wherever I go...
So what kind of number is this?
Could it be that Wu Sima intended to take this girl into his concubine, fearing that she would take the opportunity to run away while he was away?
I have an idea!
"Wait a minute, I want to go in and have a look too!"
Bai Jingjing immediately stood up, looked directly into Wu Liang's eyes and said.
"Do it?"
Wu Liang ignored her at all and said to the soldier next to him.
"Wait a minute, maybe I can still help in some places!"
To be continued...
