The four of them chatted briefly and after getting to know each other briefly, Partridge Whistle got down to business.
They came here to hunt wolves only to eliminate hidden threats. The most important purpose was to find the ancient tombs in the forest.
As the leader of the Banshan Taoist people, Partridge Whistle shoulders the important task of saving the Zagrama tribe and takes finding the Muchen Bead as his own responsibility.
Even if there is only a glimmer of hope, he will keep looking.
Soon, the three Partridge Whistle leaders led Wang Ye to the tomb they had visited before.
They had already dug the hole before, and the air in the tomb was already circulating, so there would be no problems with poisoning or lack of oxygen.
"Partridge Whistle, this is my first time going to the tomb. I don't know much about the rules. Could you please give me some advice."
They became acquainted with each other, and Wang began to call them by their first names.
The Partridge Whistle nodded: "It is indeed dangerous to go to the tomb. There are usually anti-theft mechanisms in the tomb, and there may even be some corpse turtles, rice dumplings, spirits and other evil things, so remember to be careful and don't touch things casually.
, to avoid triggering the mechanism, just follow me later."
"OK."
Wang Ye really doesn't know much about tomb robbing. At most, he has read some tomb robbing novels, so he is a novice.
You are right to listen more, watch more and learn more.
The four of them prepared, lit torches, and entered the tomb passage through the robbery hole.
The size of the tomb in the forest is not small. According to Partridge Whistle, it is an ancient royal tomb from the Southern Song Dynasty.
Entering through the rogue cave, Wang Ye felt as if there was an underground palace below.
At this time, the four of them all put on simple masks, lit torches and walked through the dim tomb passage.
On the way, we encountered some hidden arrows and other traps, but they were blocked by Partridge Whistle, the old foreigner and Hua Ling using diamond umbrellas.
The diamond umbrella in the hand of the Partridge Whistle is a tool to protect the human body. Its main purpose is to be a shield against the hidden weapons in the tomb.
Legend has it that the Vajra Umbrella is made of hundreds of refined steel mixed with rare metals. It is made of steel bones and iron leaves, and no matter how powerful a crossbow is, it cannot penetrate it.
It is not afraid of water and fire, and is immune to all kinds of poisons. It specializes in guarding against various hidden weapons in ancient tombs.
What is professional? This is called professional.
The king couldn't help but sigh that he had a specialization in the art industry, with 360 skills, and he was the number one scholar in every skill.
Seeing the three people holding umbrellas walking through the tomb passage where hidden arrows were flying, Wang also wanted to get one.
However, due to the cost and rarity of tools like diamond umbrellas in this era, the number was very small. Wang Ye had nothing to do and could only use his body skills to dodge.
There were no dangers along the way.
Go through the tomb passage and come to the tomb door.
The Partridge Whistle did not break the door, but asked the old foreigner to release the pangolins from the basket on their backs and let the pangolins dig holes in through the back wall.
Both mother and baby pangolins have their acupuncture points locked with copper rings. Even with the power to penetrate the mountain, they cannot break free and can only become tool beasts.
After being released, the two pangolins flew with their fingers, attacked and dug into the hard soil. It was as easy as digging tofu into pieces, and they dug a hole easily.
In fact, in Wang Ye's "Fenghou Qimen", there is a "Gen character. Earth Dragon Swim", which can cover the whole body with a layer of Qi, liquefying the earth and rocks around it, so that people can swim under the soil like a fish.
If used to rob tombs, it would be a magical skill.
However, the king is not very skilled yet and will not use it easily if it is not necessary.
Otherwise, the chain will fall off at the critical moment and be buried in the soil, which will not only be embarrassing, but also very dangerous!
The pangolin digs its burrow very quickly and quickly dug through the back wall.
"Good job."
The old foreigner applauded, then gave the mother pangolin some food and put them back into the basket on his back.
Wang also helped clean up the broken wall tiles, and then saw Hualing release a few sparrows from the cloth bag to test the air quality in the tomb.
The air in the tomb is not circulating, and there may be harmful gases. There are no gas masks in this era, so it is a good ancient method to test it with small animals such as sparrows.
"no problem."
After a while, the sparrow was safe and sound, and the flower spirit nodded to the partridge whistle.
Then the four of them went inside with torches.
When the Partridge Whistle saw that the old foreigner was about to hit the wall with his hand, he quickly held him down and said, "Don't touch it."
"I understand, senior brother."
The old foreigner retracted his restless hand with a sneer.
The king also observed the environment in the tomb by the light of the torch.
I saw some ancient inscriptions on the walls of the tomb passage. Because of the age, some parts have become blurred.
After passing through several tomb passages without any danger, the four of them finally arrived at the main tomb chamber.
I saw a stone coffin placed in the middle of the tomb.
The tomb was very dry, and there was a lot of dust on the sarcophagus. Wang Ye, Partridge Whistle and others walked forward slowly.
After observing the coffin for a moment, Partridge Whistle was ready to push open the coffin lid.
The king also said: "I heard people say that there is a rule for going to the tomb, asking people to light candles and ghosts to blow out lamps. Before opening the coffin, a candle must be lit in the southeast corner. If the candle in the tomb suddenly goes out, it means that the owner of the tomb is dead."
If you are not satisfied with what you took, I remind you to put it down. At this time, you must put the thing back to its original place immediately, and then knock your head three times to avoid being stolen. Only then can you save your life. Is this true or false?"
Hearing this, the old foreigner said: "I have also heard the rumors about ghosts blowing out lanterns. How about I light one?"
Partridge Whistle glanced at Wang Ye meaningfully and said, "Then light one."
Wang Ye felt that he seemed to be talking too much, but he didn't care too much.
In fact, there is a scientific explanation for ghosts blowing out lamps. If there is not enough oxygen in the tomb, or the corpses or poisons inside suddenly change, or the air quality changes, the candles will go out.
At this time, people can retreat quickly to avoid the danger of poisoning and hypoxia.
But in the world of ghosts blowing out lanterns, there are indeed many things that cannot be explained by science. It is still necessary to be careful.
Partridge Whistle and others have been going to the tomb all year round, and all the things on them are relatively complete. With Partridge Whistle's instructions, the old foreigner lit a candle in the southeast corner.
The partridge whistle came to the top of the coffin: "Your Majesty, please help me."
Wang Ye nodded, raised his hand and pushed, with a crash, the lid of the sarcophagus was pushed open by a third.
Hua Ling and the old foreigner came over and used torches to illuminate the coffin. Inside the coffin was a young female corpse dressed in rich clothes.
Surprisingly, after hundreds of years, the body of the female corpse has not decayed over time, and her appearance has not changed at all from when she was alive, just like a sleeping beauty waiting for a kiss from a prince.
The gold and silver jewelry she wore showed that she had an unusual status during her lifetime. Even if she was not a queen or a concubine, she was at least a princess.
Partridge Whistle has quick eyes and quick hands. He clicks, locks, pinches, and takes. With a series of movements, he takes out a black bead from the mouth of the female corpse in an instant.
The old foreigner asked excitedly: "Senior brother, is it Muchen Pearl?"
Wang Ye looked at the female corpse and found that after losing the beads, the originally intact skin of the female corpse quickly decayed. He reminded: "Partridge Whistle, the female corpse has changed."
"No, it's the corpse-fixing pill."
Seeing this, the Partridge Whistle quickly put the beads in his hand back into the female corpse's mouth, and closed the female corpse's mouth with his hands.
