Chapter 355: The Ghost Blows the Lamp
After the cast iron lid was opened, there was a staircase-like ramp down the staircase, Zhao Weiguo took his tools and went down down, the tomb was very deep, and Zhao Weiguo quickly disappeared from the sight of Chen Donghui and Zhou Qing.
Chen Donghui and Zhou Qing were very nervous, for fear that something would happen to Zhao Weiguo. There has been no movement inside, Chen Donghui and Zhou Qing's hearts are tightly lifted, and they can't put it down at all.
More than twenty minutes later, Zhao Weiguo's voice finally came out of it, and his voice was very cheerful: "It's okay here, come down, there are good things inside!"
Chen Donghui and Zhou Qing glanced at each other, they were very happy, Chen Donghui shouted inside: "Big brother, let's go down now." ”
Zhou Qing took Chen Donghui into the tomb first, and Chen Donghui followed closely and slowly climbed down the inclined ladder.
There are about fifty or so steps in this inclined ladder, and the further down they go, the more they go down, they land very easily, and Zhao Weiguo is waiting for them below.
Chen Donghui jumped down from the most staircase and said to Zhao Weiguo: "Big brother, the mechanism here is closed?"
Zhao Weiguo held a bamboo sword in his hand, and gently held it in front of Chen Donghui, and the bamboo sword shattered, Zhao Weiguo smiled: "It may be that there was a lack of steel at that time, and most of the organs made by my grandfather here were specially made bamboo, and the hidden weapons made of these bamboos have just been made, and they are indeed no worse than the hidden weapons of steel, but they can't endure it for too long, and now they have been corroded and damaged, and the organs here are broken by themselves." ”
Zhou Qing also took out a crossbow-like weapon from the dark compartment of the wall and said with a smile: "Yes, this is also made of bamboo, and it is already broken." ”
Then seeing that the dark grids of several walls were lit by Zhao Weiguo, Zhou Qing joked: "Still lighting the lamp, really robbing the tomb?"
Zhao Weiguo explained: "Hehe, this is the rule handed down by our ancestors, as long as you go down to the ground, you must light a candle, and if the candle is extinguished, you must leave immediately. ”
Zhou Qing said with a smile: "These things left over from Chinese tradition are quite interesting. ”
Zhao Weiguo smiled: "Actually, it doesn't make sense, it's just a kind of respect for ghosts and gods." ”
Chen Donghui said: "In fact, it can also be explained scientifically, lighting a candle here can test the oxygen content here, and if the candle goes out, it proves that there is no oxygen in the air and you have to leave immediately." Some people call this phenomenon 'ghost blowing the lamp', and it also makes sense, if there is no oxygen, if you don't leave immediately, then you will really have to turn from a person to a ghost. ”
Zhao Weiguo and Zhou Qing said at the same time: "It makes sense!"
Chen Donghui said with a smile: "Actually, the truth is very simple, but once the ghosts and gods are concerned, it is easy to think about complicated things, so I didn't think of this truth." Big brother, let's not talk about this, after all, there may be all kinds of unclear dangers underground, let's get down to business first, and then talk about it. ”
"Good. Zhao Weiguo said, then pointed to the two metal boxes inlaid with gems near the corner of the wall, and said, "Donghui, Zhou Qing, you look at what is inside." ”
Zhou Qing was the most curious, first walked to the wall, opened the box, and shone it inside with a flashlight, and couldn't help shouting: "**!
Chen Donghui also walked over, and then the beam of the flashlight looked into the box, and sure enough, it was dazzling, dazzling, and it was full of pearls, agate, enamel and other things!
Zhou Qing picked up a pearl bracelet from it, flipped it in his hand, and said, "It's quite heavy!" It looks like a good thing, but I don't recognize the goods. ”
Zhao Weiguo also picked up a string of gems and said: "I don't recognize the goods, but since my ancestors put it here, it should be true, but before my father died, I clearly told me that there are two big boxes of small yellow croaker here, how did they become two boxes of jewelry?"
"Uncle didn't mention jewelry?" asked Chen Donghui.
"Nope. Zhao Weiguo shook his head and said firmly.
"Then let's find out if there's any gold here. Chen Donghui said.
Zhao Weiguo took a flashlight and shone it around, and said, "The place is so big, I don't see any other boxes." ”
Chen Donghui said: "It's a bit strange to say this. ”
Zhou Qing said with a big grin: "If there is no gold, there is no it, Brother Wei Guo, if these two boxes of jewelry are real, they should be higher than the price of two boxes of gold." ”
Zhao Weiguo said helplessly: "The key is that I have already found a gold buyer, and now I can't take out the gold, but I take two boxes of jewelry, I'm afraid it will be extraordinary." ”
Chen Donghui tasted Zhao Weiguo's words, it was not like he was deliberately prevaricating that the gold could not be found, and Zhao Weiguo should not be such a person, otherwise he would not have let the two of them come.
So Chen Donghui said: "Brother Wei Guo, otherwise let's look for it again and see if there is any secret here." ”
Zhao Weiguo said: "It seems that this is the only way." The man who bought my gold has a very strange personality, and if I exchange my gold for jewelry, I'm afraid the transaction will not go so smoothly. Donghui, Zhou Qing, if gold is found, these two boxes of jewelry will be a windfall, and the three of us brothers will divide it equally. ”
Zhou Qing is not so much money because he has money, and Zhou Qing is in the entrepreneurial stage, although the stone field has begun to make a lot of money, but after all, the time is still short, and his start-up capital is borrowed from Chen Donghui, so he is still more sensitive to money, and he is a little moved after listening to Zhao Weiguo's words, after all, one-third of these two boxes of jewelry is not a small amount!
Of course, the heart is the heart, but he didn't say anything.
Chen Donghui could see that Zhao Weiguo was a little nervous, his right hand was trembling slightly, but Zhou Qing was a little excited, every time Zhou Qing was excited, he habitually rubbed his nose, after Zhao Weiguo said that he wanted to divide the two boxes of jewelry equally, Zhou Qing had already rubbed his nose twice.
This is a very sensitive moment!
In such a depth of dozens of meters, three men with intricate relationships, facing two boxes of priceless jewels and two hidden gold, if any one of them moves for other years, this place may really become a place of ghosts crying!
Among the three of them, Chen Donghui is undoubtedly the core!
Chen Donghui actually trusts Zhao Weiguo and Zhou Qing very much, and believes that neither of them will do anything else.
However, after all, Zhao Weiguo has known him for a short time, and he met him in prison, even if he bowed and kowtowed, but how iron the relationship is, has not been profoundly verified. Especially in front of such eye-catching jewelry, it is even more difficult to say. Originally, Zhao Weiguo must have completely trusted himself to bring himself, but at this time, there were some variables.
This variable is Zhou Qing.
Chen Donghui naturally has complete trust in Zhou Qing, he believes that Zhou Qing is completely on his side, even if Zhou Qing covets these two boxes of jewelry very much, but if he doesn't do it, Zhou Qing will definitely not do it.
In this operation, the reason why he brought Zhou Qing was because he was in case there was any danger in this matter, Zhou Qing was definitely one against three, plus his M9, he was a master with one against ten!
He also thought that Zhao Weiguo might not trust Zhou Qing, but for the sake of safety, he still had to do it.
Today's situation is very embarrassing and sensitive!
Moreover, Chen Donghui can no longer express any attitude at this time, otherwise it will easily be taken as a signal, which will make both of them suspicious!
Now the only thing that can end this embarrassing situation is to find those two boxes of gold as soon as possible, and then leave the ground with these things, once they leave this cramped and dark environment, the psychological pressure of the three people will be reduced a lot.
Chen Donghui secretly breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Big brother, let's put those two boxes of jewelry aside first, let's find out if the gold is hidden somewhere." ”
Zhao Weiguo said: "Okay, then look for gold first." ”
Chen Donghui deliberately separated Zhao Weiguo and Zhou Qing, so as not to stimulate the emotions of the two of them, and said, "Brother Weiguo, let's find the three of us separately." ”
Zhao Weiguo said: "Cheng." ”
So Chen Donghui said: "Zhou Qing, you look for it in the south, pay attention to the dark grids on the ground and the wall, and also pay attention to not having any hidden weapons left, big brother, you look for it in the north, I look for it in the east, and finally look for the west." ”
"Okay, that's it. Zhao Weiguo said.
"Then let's act immediately, hurry up, here is dozens of meters from the ground, but there is an opening on it, the quality of oxygen is large, there should be no lack of oxygen, however, it is difficult to say what is going on underground, if the candle goes out or other strange things happen, let's climb up immediately, understand?" Chen Donghui advised.
"Got it. Zhou Qing said, "Let's keep an eye on it."
"Donghui is right, no one has come down here for decades, so it's better to be careful. Zhou Weiguo also said.
In the cramped and dark environment underground, when the other two were unstable in their hearts, Chen Donghui volunteered to become the leader of the three-person group, but Zhao Weiguo and Zhou Qing both felt at ease, and they had no other thoughts for the time being, and concentrated on looking for gold in the direction that Chen Donghui gave them.
Chen Donghui also came to the side and began to look for hidden compartments on the wall or on the ground to see if there was gold stored.
The area of this underground tomb is very large, three or four hundred square meters, into a regular rectangle, Chen Donghui gently knocked on the wall and the ground, listening to the sound of anything strange, and at the same time being careful to take precautions, in case Zhao Weiguo's grandfather installed a secret mechanism that was not corroded to this tomb, and Zhao Weiguo did not successfully close it, then once it was excited from the wall or the ground, such a close distance is really dangerous!
After more than ten minutes, Zhou Qing suddenly shouted: "Donghui, Brother Wei Guo, come and take a look, it's a little strange here!"
