Everyone quickly put their heads over and took a look. There was really a square hole under the floor tiles, but strangely, the hole was empty.
Xia Longsheng looked a little disappointed and shouted: "***, after all the hard work, there is nothing!"
Huang Yixian stared at the hole for a while, then suddenly bent down and put his hand inside.
"Mr. Huang, what are you..." Before Professor Dong could finish his words, suddenly there was a sound of a machine starting up from underground, and everyone was stunned.
Huang Yixian raised his head and said to everyone: "Actually, this is not for storing things, it is an opening mechanism in itself!" It turned out that Huang Yixian just put his hand in and tried to press in the hole.
After a while, the sound of the mechanism turning on suddenly stopped, followed by a loud "bang" sound.
Everyone subconsciously turned their heads and saw that the stone door behind them was not open, so this meant that another stone door was opened in the tomb. However, because the arc of the entire tomb almost reached an angle of 90 degrees, the corner of the tomb was
The situation cannot be seen, and it is not known which direction the stone door was opened.
Huang Yixian pondered for a moment and said: "Let's go! Let's go and have a look!"
Everyone followed Huang Yixian, avoiding the scattered corpses and remains on the ground, and walked forward cautiously.
After walking a few steps forward, everyone was shocked by the scene in front of them. Right in the center of the curved wall of the tomb, there was a stone door. The stone door was slowly opening, and it made people feel incredible.
Yes, there was actually a dim yellow beam shining from the stone door.
According to Huang Yixian's speculation, the inner arc wall of the second-floor tomb chamber corresponds to the main tomb chamber of the entire mausoleum, where Shao Yuanjie's tomb is located.
If this is the case, then what is going on with this beam? Is there someone else inside!?
Professor Dong asked in surprise: "Are those tomb robbers inside?"
Seabeard immediately pulled out his pistol and said coldly: "Humph! If they are really inside, we can just catch them all."
"Let's go in and take a look!"
Everyone picked up the tools one after another and walked quickly to the stone door. Inside the door was a two or three-meter-long arched corridor, and the light beam came from the tomb at the other end of the corridor.
Under the leadership of Huang Yixian, everyone carefully stepped into the corridor and walked towards the tomb chamber.
When they walked into the tomb, the scene in front of them left everyone speechless in shock.
This is a circular tomb with a diameter of more than ten meters. In the center of the tomb is a Bagua pattern that protrudes about a foot from the ground. In the center of the Bagua, there is a black piece that is about two meters long and one meter high.
The square boulder looks like a coffin.
What shocked everyone was that the light in the tomb actually came from an oil lamp!
Although the light emitted by the oil lamp is dim and weak, it is enough to give each of us a chill in our hearts. You must know that this is in a completely sealed tomb, not to mention the thin oxygen, which is not enough to support the oil lamp.
As it continues to burn, the key question is, who lit this oil lamp?
Those tomb robbers? But it seems like no one has entered here before us.
Could it be that the owner of the tomb came to life and lit the oil lamp himself?
Thinking of this, I shuddered involuntarily.
Huang Yixian stared at the quietly burning oil lamp and murmured: "This...could this be the legendary ever-burning lamp..."
I quickly asked: "Uncle Master, what does the ever-burning lamp mean? Has this oil lamp been burning for hundreds of years?"
Huang Yixian nodded and said: "According to classical records, Taoism has a long-lost magic technique that can use the spiritual energy of heaven and earth to create a lamp that will last for thousands of years. It can continue to burn even if there is no air. I originally thought it was
It’s a fantasy, but I didn’t expect that such a magic lamp actually existed.”
"This...how is this possible? If there really is an ever-burning lamp, wouldn't it violate the principle of conservation of energy?" Xia Longsheng did not believe what Huang Yixian said.
Huang Yixian glanced at him and said: "There are many things that cannot be explained by modern science, but they are real. For example, you were possessed by a ghost just now. Can you use any principle to explain it?"
"I..." Xia Longsheng was speechless for a moment.
Huang Yixian glanced towards the tomb, and then focused on the black square boulder in the center of the tomb. He frowned and walked towards the boulder. We all quickly followed.
However, just after taking a few steps forward, Huang Yixian suddenly stopped and reached out to stop everyone.
He said slowly: "Don't go there, that's Shao Yuanjie's coffin."
"What!? That stone is really a coffin!" I couldn't help being surprised.
When he heard that it was Shao Yuanjie's sleeping coffin, Haibeard immediately became interested: "Since it is Shao Yuanjie's sleeping coffin, it is even more important to have a look!" He took out a crowbar from his backpack and walked towards the black sarcophagus.
go.
Huang Yixian quickly stretched out his hand to catch him and said: "Absolutely not! His coffin is not made of ordinary materials, but made of soul stones! Soul stones can absorb people's souls, so don't be careless."
When Seabeard heard this, he quickly took a few steps back, not daring to come any closer.
Huang Yixian glanced into the tomb room and sighed: "Although this Shao Yuanjie is ruthless, he is indeed a Taoist master. I have learned a lot today." At this point, he suddenly changed the topic and turned to Professor Dong.
Said: "Professor Dong, although there is a large amount of gold and silver treasure hidden in this mausoleum, it must not be excavated easily to avoid catastrophic disaster."
Professor Dong hurriedly said: "Don't worry, Mr. Huang, after I go back, I will write a detailed report and recommend that the tomb be sealed."
Huang Yixian nodded: "We'd better leave here as soon as possible. This main tomb chamber seems to have only one entrance and exit. If we delay for too long and the tomb starts to rotate again, we might have to wait here for twelve hours."
"
Everyone was shocked when they heard it. Twelve hours is twenty-four hours, and the oxygen left in our oxygen bottles can only last for seven or eight hours at most. If it had been twenty-four hours longer, I'm afraid it would have been
Suffocated to death.
Everyone did not dare to stay any longer and hurriedly retreated the same way they came.
After returning to the tomb filled with corpses and remains, everyone groped for a while, and finally Huang Yixian found the mechanism that opened the stone door connected to the previous tomb.
As soon as the stone door opened, Haibeard rushed into the tomb chamber and breathed a sigh of relief when he saw Liu Chengwu and Li Song sitting there against the wall unharmed.
It's time to leave here, but it's not easy to find the way out. Although the entire tomb may have four tomb passages, the only one that can really connect with the outside world is the Xuanwu tomb passage we entered.
The problem now is that the entire tomb has rotated several times since we entered, and sometimes it is clockwise, and sometimes it is counterclockwise. So how can we turn back to the Xuanwu Tomb Passage?
For a moment, everyone was a little confused.
Huang Yixian pondered for a moment, then suddenly took out the compass from his bag, lay down on the ground and started playing with it. Jianjian asked curiously: "Dad, what are you doing?"
Huang Yixian replied without raising his head: "I am reorganizing the model!"
Jianjian was slightly startled: "Model reorganization? What do you mean?"
"It's just to make a mausoleum pattern model, and use this model to determine our location."
When everyone heard this, they felt curious and immediately gathered around.
Huang Yixian explained: "In fact, the construction pattern of the Tianzhi God's Tomb is somewhat similar to the layout of a compass. Therefore, if we regard this compass as the tomb, we can quickly determine our current location."
After listening to what Huang Yixian said, and thinking about it carefully, it seems that this is really the case. There are also heavenly stems and earthly branches on the compass, which is indeed somewhat similar to the layout of the heavenly branches and gods' tomb.
After Huang Yixian buried his head and fiddled with it for a while, he suddenly patted his head, raised his head and said: "The tomb chamber we are in now is actually facing the Xuanwu Tomb Path! The only thing between it and the Xuanwu Tomb Path is the outer layer of the twelve earthly branches.
It’s just You Palace!”
"Mr. Huang, are you sure?"
Huang Yixian nodded firmly: "OK!" He looked at his watch again and said: "However, the tomb should be turning again in less than half an hour. Everyone, hurry up and find the mechanism to open this stone door as soon as possible.
.”
The guys didn't dare to delay, and immediately started groping on the walls of the tomb room.
Since the deadlock in the tomb had been resolved, everyone became bolder and moved faster. After a while, they found a mechanism and pressed it to open the arc wall outside the tomb.
organ.
Under the leadership of Huang Yixian, the group of people passed through the stone gate one by one and entered a new tomb chamber.
As soon as I walked into this tomb, I saw the backs of a row of pottery sculptures. Everyone knew what these pottery sculptures meant and did not dare to get too close. They all walked around against the wall.
Entering the tomb, I took a closer look. The layout of this tomb was not much different from that of the previous Dizhi Wei Palace. There was also a row of wooden shelves in the center of the tomb, with many porcelain bottles and bowls placed on the wooden shelves.
It seems that the layout of the twelve earthly branches should not be much different.
On the floor in the center of the tomb, you can see a big word "You". Huang Yixian's calculation was indeed correct. This is really the Earthly Branch You Palace.
However, although there is only a wall between the earthly branch You Palace and the Xuanwu tomb passage, we cannot go out directly from this tomb because You belongs to the yin branch. According to Huang Yixian's speculation, only tombs with the yang branch can communicate with the outside world.
Therefore, we have to rotate clockwise again in the Twelve Earthly Branches before entering the Xu Palace of the Earthly Branches that corresponds to the Xuanwu Tomb Path.
