The more I think about it, the more doubtful I become. Could it be that the crack in the ground that Maizi accidentally fell into that day was not part of the ancient tomb? But, if not, where else could it be? An air raid shelter? Unlikely! A natural cave? It’s even more impossible.
! It must have been dug manually, but why would anyone dig a hole next to an ancient tomb...
I was thinking hard, and suddenly my mind suddenly flashed, and I suddenly understood that it was a burglary hole!
I stood up suddenly, startling all three of them.
"Boss, what's wrong with you?"
I said seriously: "I know what's going on!"
"What's going on?" The three of them had no idea what I was talking about, and all of them looked confused and confused.
I glanced at them and said, "Maybe the crack that the wheat fell into that day was not part of the tomb, but a robbery hole!"
"What! Robbery!?" the beast said in shock.
I nodded and said: "The beast's analysis just now is correct. Ancient tombs are not so easy to collapse. Therefore, the mud hole should not be part of the tomb, and it will never be a naturally formed cave. So, think about it.
Look, there is an artificial earth cave next to an unexcavated ancient tomb. What does it mean?"
After hearing my analysis, the three of them looked at each other and were shocked.
After a while, Maizi said doubtfully: "Since it's just a burglar's cave, why are there ghosts in it?"
"It's hard to say. Maybe the tomb robber accidentally died in the robber's cave and became an unjust ghost. Or maybe the robber's cave has been dug through and can reach the inside of the tomb, causing the ghosts in the tomb to escape...
…”
Before I finished speaking, Maizi exclaimed: "What? That ancient tomb has been robbed!?"
San'er was listening to me attentively. He was startled by Maizi's shouting. He turned around and pushed Maizi, and cursed: "Damn it, what are you calling me? If you steal it, you'll steal it. It's not like that."
Your ancestral grave!"
"It's stolen!?" Maizi shouted at San'er: "Do you have any brains? That ancient tomb is a provincial cultural relic protection unit. If it is really stolen, it is not a trivial matter. Maybe a few of us
Everyone must be implicated!"
I glared at Maizi and said, "Can you please keep your voice down, for fear that others won't hear you?"
The beast frowned and said, "Boss, I think what Maizi said is reasonable. Otherwise, we should call the police!"
Maizi immediately agreed: "Yes, boss! It's better to call the police proactively than to be found out by the police. There are still fingerprints left by us there, and we can find them out immediately."
San'er laughed and said: "Haha! You have watched too many TV dramas, and you still have fingerprints! It has been almost a month, and it has rained a few times, so all the marks have been washed away! Except for the smell of your urine
, let’s see if the police can smell it.” Because when Maizi slipped and fell into the crack that day, he was so frightened that he peed on the spot. After he came back, he discovered that the three of us had been teasing him about this for a while, and until now, Saner still keeps talking about it from time to time.
Take it out to tease Maizi.
When he mentioned this, Maizi immediately stopped talking and stared at San'er with a look uglier than pig liver.
But I was not in the mood to joke with them right now. I lowered my head and pondered for a while, then waved my hand and said, "We can't call the police yet. The matter hasn't been investigated clearly. Besides, if we hit a ghost somewhere, you guys
Do you think the police will believe it? So, I’d better go check it out tonight.”
"Boss, since you have decided, I will go with you tonight!" Zhusheng said. Maizi and San'er hesitated for a moment, but both expressed their intention to go with me.
These three guys are usually very afraid of ghosts, but I didn't expect that they still have some loyalty today. However, they can't really help if they follow me, and if there are more people, they will be easily exposed, so I finally decided to go with them.
No answer.
In the evening, while everyone was going to the classroom and library for evening self-study, I put the Taomu Sword and the Tianshi Ghost Suppression Talisman that Huang Yixian gave me as well as some other things that might come in handy into a canvas messenger bag.
, this is Yin
The Yangshi-specific shoulder bag is made of very thick canvas and is rectangular in shape. It is not only large in capacity, but can also hold a peach wood sword that is more than two feet long. It is very practical. I put on the shoulder bag and climbed over the wall into the loess alone.
ridge.
Since I had already been here once, I quickly found the crack. I was about to tie the rope to the trunk of the orange tree next to me, but suddenly I found that a rope had already been tied to the root of the trunk!
The other parts of the rope were buried in the soil. I grabbed the rope, pulled hard, and pulled it out of the soil. Only then did I realize that the other end of the rope actually extended into the crack.
I was slightly startled, what happened? Has anyone else been here? I grabbed the rope and took a closer look. It was not an ordinary hemp rope, but a professional climbing rope made of nylon fiber. Use
Such professional equipment was obviously well prepared. Maybe they were the same group of tomb robbers who dug this hole!
I couldn't help but hesitate, should I go down? If those guys were still down there, I might be in danger if I went down hastily. But now that I'm here, I'm not willing to go home like this.
I lay down next to the crack and looked down with a flashlight, but I didn't find anything unusual. After thinking about it carefully, if it was really a tomb robber, he should have come in the middle of the night, but it was only around nine o'clock now.
As for Zhong, no matter what, they wouldn't dare to do this at this time.
What a shameful thing! Moreover, this rope was originally buried in the soil and did not look like it had just been used. From this, it seems that those guys just left the rope here, presumably for the future.
It's convenient again. But there should be no one in the thief's cave now.
I thought about it for a while and decided to go down and have a look. But I didn’t dare to take it lightly. Just in case, I took out the mahogany sword and held it in my hand. I grabbed the flashlight with the other hand and climbed in along the rope.
cracked.
Because the battery of the flashlight had been replaced, the light was much stronger than last time. With the help of the flashlight, I finally saw clearly the situation inside the entire cave.
This hole is long and narrow, about six or seven meters long, about two or three meters wide, and about three or four meters high. I can't help but wonder, it's just a robbery hole. Is it necessary to make it so big? It can accommodate one person.
It’s okay if you can’t get out.
I quickly went down to the bottom of the cave and took a flashlight to look around. I soon discovered that there was a row of footprints on the ground. Out of curiosity, I walked forward along the footprints and came to a place about two meters high and one meter wide.
in front of black wooden boards.
As soon as I saw this piece of wood, I immediately thought of the strange "crunching" sound I heard that night. I couldn't help but feel nervous. I looked around and subconsciously tightened the mahogany sword in my hand.
After a while, there was no movement. Then I looked carefully at the black wooden board in front of me. I saw a Bagua pattern in the center of the board, and around the Bagua pattern, there were many strange drawings.
These characters seemed to be Taoist inscriptions specially used for drawing talismans. I didn’t know the purpose of writing them on such a wooden board. I boldly reached out, grabbed the wooden board and pulled it out, but it didn’t move at all. I looked carefully again
After taking a look, I discovered that there were actually locks on the top and bottom of the wooden board. In other words, this was actually a door!
Both locks are very common mechanical locks, and they look very new, so they are most likely the locks of those tomb robbers. This makes me even more upset. Since it is a tomb robber, how can I take the valuable things inside?
If you can just take it away, why do you need to install a door here and lock it? Do you plan to live in this ghost place permanently?
I was wondering when I suddenly felt something moving behind me. I couldn't help but feel nervous and turned around quickly. But before I could turn around, an arm quickly stretched out to my chest and pulled me back violently.
All of a sudden, it tightened its grip around my neck.
Because I had no precautions, I almost lost my breath when I was slapped so hard.
I quickly grabbed the arm with one hand and pulled it out hard, and hit the opponent's waist and abdomen hard with the elbow of the other hand.
I used to practice special elbow strikes with that martial arts master. The so-called "one inch short, one inch dangerous", close combat, elbow strike is a very effective attack method. When I elbowed down, the opponent immediately screamed in pain.
, the arm holding my neck unconsciously loosened a little. Taking this opportunity, I quickly pulled my head down and broke free.
I didn't care so much, and stabbed him with another mahogany sword with my backhand. Although it was a wooden sword, it was hardwood after all. I don't know where it hit his body. I just heard him scream again. And this
The voice actually sounded somewhat familiar.
I turned around and was about to use a flashlight to shine a light on who this guy was, but suddenly I felt something hit me hard on my temple on the left side. I felt dizzy and couldn't stand on my feet. I staggered.
He tripped and fell to the ground, and the flashlight in his hand flew out.
When the guy saw this, he immediately pounced towards me. He was holding something like a steel rod in his hand. Judging from his posture, he seemed to be planning to kill me. I struggled to stand up, but found that I couldn't.
Shangli couldn't help but secretly thought: It's over now, I'm afraid I'm going to have to deal with it in this hellish place today.
Unexpectedly, at this moment, a woman's faint sigh suddenly came from the wooden door behind me.
When the guy heard this sigh, he was stunned for half a second, threw the steel rod in his hand at me, turned around and ran away.
He rushed to the bottom of the crack in a few steps, quickly climbed up along the rope, and quickly escaped from the cave.
