Chapter 15: Tomb in a Tomb

Everyone was about to go in.

"Wait a minute!" Hu Bayi shouted in a low voice.

"What's wrong?" The fat man and Wang Chao stopped and turned around in confusion.

Hu Bayi took out something with his hands from his front bra collar, which was a dark and faint shiny talisman given by Big Gold Teeth.

He asked, "Did you wear this?"

"I've worn it, I've worn it." The fat man laughed.

Wang Chao also raised the gold-touching talisman around his neck. Even though he knew it was a fake, he had been wearing it since he entered the ground, which was a psychological comfort.

"Look!" At this time, the fat man grinned his teeth and greeted the two of them again.

As soon as he lifted his clothes, his left and right pockets were filled with large bags of things, and they were filled with bulging inside.

He smiled proudly: "The black donkey hooves and glutinous rice are in his arms. Fatty, I'm ready for a long time, hehe..."

The two of them rolled their eyes at the same time.

"Yingzi, this is for you!"

As he said that, he picked out larger black donkey hooves from his pocket and gave them to Yingzi.

"What's this?" Looking at the disgusting black fluffy hair on it, Yingzi didn't want to take it.

"Black donkey's hoof, ward off evil spirits, this is a good thing, hold it quickly!" The fat man forced himself into her hand.

He didn't care about the girl's disgust and happily sent one of the black donkey's hooves.

This is exactly the old donkey hoof that Wang Chao bought in the fritters market before. It tastes a bit big. I have been rushing to the road these days and have all kept these things in the fat man’s place.

"Okay, it's almost done, let's go in!"

Wang Chao took the lead and walked inside with his foot.

"Go, fat man, bring the things well!"

After a few steps, four people entered.

There was no light in the tomb. Everyone was on flashlights and shining carefully to check the environment.

After a while.

Everyone roughly observed the structure of the entire tomb.

The tomb chamber is not large in size, with about 100 square meters. It seems to be designed according to the living house, with the main room, the back room, and two ear rooms. Two stone doors are opened in the north and south direction, corresponding to them.

The place where Wang Chao and his party came in happened to be an ear chamber. Logically speaking, the coffin of the tomb owner should be parked in the center of the main chamber.

But after looking for a long time, there was only a shallow pit in the middle, with two stone slabs on it, and no coffin was seen.

In the darkness.

"ah!"

Yingzi suddenly screamed.

"What's wrong?" Hu Bayi hurriedly shone the flashlight at her and asked.

Wang Chao and the fat man heard the sound and rushed over. Seeing Yingzi's hands trembling, he picked up the black donkey's hooves and looked straight at a wall. He covered his eyes and didn't dare to look over.

Seeing that she looked so frightened that she looked like a fake, the few people were shocked. The lights shone on the wall, but after looking at it for a long time, there was only a mural on it, which looked like a vicious general on the battlefield.

"Don't be afraid, this is a mural!" Hu Bayi breathed a sigh of relief and comforted him.

"I was shocked, Yingzi, it's okay, you see, there are murals all around..." The fat man swept the lights down the walls.

Yingzi was stunned for a moment, then opened her eyes and looked up at the wall ahead. After a closer look, it turned out to be just a relief painting, and she couldn't help but blush slightly.

Wang Chao walked up to her and chuckled softly, "Don't be afraid, put this thing away."

The walls around are painted with paintings, but after so many years, the paint has almost dropped.

The characters in the painting are simple and lifelike. Wang Chao said in the relief of the general just now: "Yingzi, look, this should be the owner of the tomb. This painting shows the scene of fighting on the battlefield, so it looks more ferocious!"

Yingzi's voice was held in her throat, making only a faint answer like a mosquito, and she felt so embarrassed in her heart.

Let's take a look one by one.

There are eight murals in total, some are hunting scenes in the forest, some are drinking in the hall, some are going to fight on the battlefield, and some are escorting prisoners. The last one is a scene of winning the triumphal and winning the title of marquis. However, it is not difficult to see that in each mural there is a man wearing a fox fur, and he should be the tomb owner in the tomb. If nothing unexpected happens, this should be the tomb of a general of the Jin Dynasty, and at least a marquis of ten thousand households during his lifetime.

suddenly.

"Old Hu, Brother Wang, come here quickly!"

At some point, the fat man entered a back room alone, ran out, stood there and shouted in surprise.

"Let's go and take a look."

Wang Chao called Yingzi and walked towards the fat man with Hu Ba.

"Come on, come on, I found the place where the tomb owner buried the treasure with him!"

When I saw the fat man's face, I was very happy and excited.

Even the little girl Yingzi saw what was excited about.

When I entered the stone gate, it was not big inside. I only saw some weapons on the shelves on both sides, but they were already decaying.

In the middle, there was an extremely large mace, which was more than three meters long. It should be the weapon used by the general during his lifetime. From this, he could imagine how terrible he was. The ground was covered with porcelain jars and clay pots, and the top was covered with gray.

"Is this the treasure you found?" Hu Bayi sneered.

The fat man choked immediately.

He slashed his mouth and said uncomfortably: "As soon as I came in, I saw several burial frames on the ground, thinking that this guy must be valuable, who would have thought that this person who was buried with him was either these scrap copper and iron or broken clay pots! This general was too cowardly, poorer than your fat man..."

Several people looked into the corner.

It's really as fat man said.

Only then did I find that there were several skeletons buried in the corner, piled up together. I didn't pay attention for a moment and thought they were also some pots.

Although this kind of burial ceremony seems cruel now, the ancients all admired it and were proud of it.

I think those emperors, generals and ministers of all dynasties are arrogant and unwilling to be inferior to others in tombs. They try their best to design the mausoleum with extreme luxury, reflecting their unique status. Their daily necessities, favorite things, and even their favorite wives and concubines were all accompanied by them to die.

This is a fantasy of continuing to bring the glory of his life into the underworld.

Looking closely, these skulls were sunken and cracked, with obvious blunt-arm marks, which may be prisoners or wives and concubines used to be buried with them. There was also a small burial pit on the side, with a horse bone inside, which was very white and ferocious. This must be the treasure mount of the Jin general galloping on the battlefield. Apart from that, there was nothing extra.

"It seems that the Jin people will not pursue the grand funeral." Hu Bayi sighed. He had almost no gains and was somewhat disappointed.

However, when everyone looked at the corpses in the burial pit, they felt cold and walked around here for a while, without thinking about staying for too long, so they returned to the main room of the tomb together.

The main room was very empty. The fat man walked around several times, but he did not find any traces of the coffin placing it.

"Hey, you guys tell me, why is there no coffin in such a large tomb?" The fat man was very unwilling.

Wang Chao reminded: "It is unreasonable not to put coffins in the tomb. I think it must be a mechanism that hides it!"

Hu Bayi was wondering, and his eyes lit up when he heard this: "Yes, maybe there is really a mechanism, let's look for it carefully!"

The four people went to look for each other.

Live up to everyone's expectations.

"Brother Hu, Brother Wang, there is a strange brick here, it can move!"

After a while, Yingzi found a square living brick in a corner of the wall, with a thin lotus pattern engraved on it. It was hidden in the cracks of the wall engraving bricks. If you don’t look carefully, it will be difficult to find it.

Three people were happy.

Although Yingzi was always very scared and fumbled in the dark corner for a long time, she was the first mechanism to discover it.

Wang Chao gave a thumbs up to this stubborn but afraid of death!

Then.

Sure enough, they found the same hidden living bricks in the four corners one after another.

"I remembered that this is a 'tomb in tomb'!" Hu Bayi suddenly slapped his legs and said, "My half of my book records that in ancient times, in order to prevent future generations from disturbing the peace of the tomb, some people came up with a strange way of burial. They designed the tomb as an illusion of emptyness to deceive the tomb robbers. In fact, the real coffin was hidden under a certain mechanism!"



The fat man was also excited when he heard this and said, "Then, this must be the mechanism where the coffin is hidden!"

As he said that, he pressed the brick next to him.

"Wait a minute!" Wang Chao saw it and quickly stopped him, "Fatty, don't be anxious first. The person who designed this kind of tomb must have a backup plan. There are often dangers under this mechanism!"

"What should I do?" The fat man was stunned and said anxiously, "Then we can't see the baby right in front of us, but we don't take it?"

"so."

Wang Chao waved his hand.

"We happen to be four of us, each of us stays in a corner. After pressing it later, we will immediately fall to the ground. Don't hesitate to prevent any hidden weapon from triggering it! How about it?"

"Okay, this matter is reliable! Big brother, let me listen to you!" The fat man agreed immediately.

Hu Bayi nodded in one aspect. Yingzi had no objection, so she wanted to do it early and leave this gloomy place to get some breath.

"Then let's make arrangements like this, be sure to pay attention to safety!" Wang Chao reminded him again.

Everything is ready, only the east wind is not available.

"Press it!"

Wang Chao shouted softly.

The few people understood and attached their hands to each other, pressing the bricks hard together, and the dust settled.

"Nothing is there any movement? Has this thing been broken after more than a thousand years of disrepair?" In the corner, the fat man muttered.

Hu Bayi was about to talk about him, but at this moment, a sound of mechanical storm in the wall of the tomb suddenly rang in his ears!
