Text: Lower Tomb 3

Previous Chapter

Seeing that Li Lao was about to leave, Jun Lingtian stopped him in time, and by the light of the flashlight, Jun Lingtian used bamboo branches to draw the general outline of the murderous tomb on the ground.

Pointing to the outline of the murderous tomb, Jun Lingtian analyzed to Li Lao:

"Old Li, you know that this is the murderous tomb below, so these three robbery holes will be different from other robbery holes. The other robbing holes all choose the nearest route to the main tomb to move the shovel, but these three robbery holes are completely opposite in order not to alarm the owner of the murderous tomb. The three thieves all went towards the ear chamber, that is, the burial pit, and avoided the main burial chamber as much as possible. So Mr. Li, we must find a place to meet after we go in. Seeing that there was no objection to what he said, Jun Lingtian continued:

"So when we go down, whoever arrives first has to be here. Jun Lingtian pointed to the sketch on the ground and said, "That is, the corridor of the tomb is here, waiting for everyone to act together after they meet." Looking up at everyone, Jun Lingtian said solemnly:

"This operation is very dangerous, although I am not very familiar with everyone working together for the first time, but since we are acting together, we should take care of each other, and no one can be alone in it. I also hope that everyone will try to obey the command as much as possible, and do not move around after going down, because only by working together can we find a way to survive in the difficult predicament. The reason why Jun Lingtian said this was that this operation was indeed dangerous, and secondly, it was necessary for him to remind everyone, don't mess around after going down, don't be like those tomb robbers, after going down to the tomb and seeing a large number of funeral goods, they frantically snatched it, destroying the tomb, destroying the feng shui, and bringing trouble.

After explaining everything, Jun Lingtian gave everyone a piece of talisman paper. Because the murderous tomb is really notorious, in order to prevent ghosts from hitting the wall and other dirty things in the cave, Jun Lingtian prepared the rune paper in advance.

After letting Li Lao once again tell everyone what to pay attention to when going to the tomb, Jun Lingtian tied the rope prepared in advance, took the prepared package, and took the lead in going down to the tomb. completely forgot Chen Banshan's admonition that Li Lao and the others would go to the tomb first. And our brave Da Hei did not go to the tomb with Jun Lingtian for the first time, indicating that he was very well-behaved and stayed on the ground.

Not long after entering the thief cave, Jun Lingtian was crying bitterly in his heart. When he was a killer in another life, he had also heard of tomb robbing, but at that time, he just listened to the story, and he didn't have a personal experience, and he thought it was very exciting and fun. Unexpectedly, one day I personally participated in it only to find out that everything was just my imagination, and the actual feeling was simply a world of difference. In such an oppressive space, Jun Lingtian had to admire these thieves, how good and coordinated their figures must be, in order to move freely in such a small space and swing like the wind.

Although he was unhappy in his heart, Jun Lingtian was once a killer after all, and his stamina and adaptability were definitely first-class. After a short and rapid crawl, he had come to the coffin of the Three Corpses Blazing Soul Bureau. As she expected, the thief hole cleverly passed by the coffins of the three corpses, and then went diagonally downward.

As he crawled past the coffin, Jun Lingtian glanced at the coffin curiously. This was unbelievable, and he was shocked to find that half of the side panels of the coffin had been broken, and the other half was missing. What shocked him even more was that when he looked inside through the fracture, the coffin was actually empty, and the body was nowhere to be found.

Seeing such a treacherous scene, Rao is Jun Lingtian's heart was a little unsettled, accustomed to seeing strong winds and waves. He really didn't expect that in the Three Corpses Blazing Soul Bureau at this moment, the corpses in the coffin were no longer there, and looking at the appearance of the coffin board, it didn't look like a normal break, as if something rushed out of it and broke the side plate. All this fully shows that things are not simple, and it is by no means a good sign.

After careful consideration, Jun Lingtian put his hand into the coffin, grabbed a piece of shou cloth from it, used it to cover the crack, gently pulled some soil to cover it, and then continued to climb forward. The reason why Jun Lingtian wanted to do this was because he didn't want to cause panic among the people who came behind, he didn't want his team to be timid before he fought.

After a strenuous crawl, by the light of the flashlight, Jun Lingtian saw that the soil in front of him had suddenly changed color. After approaching cautiously, Jun Lingtian gently picked up a bit of red clay and sniffed it on the tip of his nose, and found that the soil was pungent and unpleasant.

Jun Lingtian knew that the reason why the soil was so dark red was because it was poisonous. Because in ancient times, after the ancient people buried the tomb, they would put the lime rammed earth under the first layer of the tomb to prevent moisture, and then mix various poisons in a layer of sealed soil to prevent tomb robbery and insects. Of course, this kind of bloody burial method must be borne by ancient dignitaries, and it is obvious that the Mu family tomb is in line with this characteristic.

"Since we have reached the toxic rammed earth layer, then there is another layer of limestone soil in front of us, and the ear chamber of the murderous tomb should be reached. Jun Lingtian pondered in his heart.

Not long after carefully passing through the poisonous soil layer, everything was as Jun Lingtian expected, only to see that the soil in front of him had turned gray-white, and the robbery cave had also been enlarged a lot, and at the end of the robbery cave, a blue brick tomb wall was close in front of him.

A hole had been broken in the tomb wall at this moment, Jun Lingtian carefully checked it, and found that the tomb wall had a mezzanine, and the mechanism in the mezzanine had been broken. Although the mechanism of the ear chamber will be relatively simple, but seeing that this hole is not forcibly opened by brute force at all, it is clear that the person who broke the hole should also be a master, at least a person who knows how to do it.

After careful observation, Jun Lingtian entered the murderous tomb from the entrance of the cave, he was not worried about the air in the tomb now, because the person in front of him had already used the yin pipe to discharge the poisonous gases in it, and at this moment, the tomb should be safe in terms of air environment. Take 10,000 steps back, even if there is a toxic gas in it, Jun Lingtian is not afraid. Because of such necessities as a gas mask, how could he not bring it.

Sniffing lightly, and finding that there was nothing wrong with anything other than an ancient musty smell, Jun Lingtian untied the rope around his waist.

Gently pull the rope three times, this is the code that was said before, pull three times to indicate safety, and pull sharply to indicate danger, so that the person above knows what to do.

Li Xiang'er has been waiting above for a long time, seeing that the sky is already slightly bright, but there is no movement below, and he can't say that he can't ask or shout, it's not too long, because of anxiety and become like a year, it's really difficult.

At this moment, the long-awaited code finally came from the rope in her hand, Li Xiang'er was relieved, and the anxiety on her face suddenly decreased. In addition to being happy, he went down the thief hole without hesitation. Remembering that she was ignorant before, and thought that she would be embarrassed to be alone with Jun Lingtian after going down to the thief cave, her face couldn't help but be hot.

Since the ground had to be guarded, and there were three thieves to march at the same time, a group of people came down in three groups, and each group was just thinking about people. With Jun Lingtian taking the lead, the three people behind were naturally much faster, and they all went down to the tomb after a while.

The burial pit is not small, Jun Lingtian has already looked at it carefully when he came down, except for the piles of fragile dry bones on the ground, there is nothing else, such as any valuable funeral goods and the like, don't count on it.

In ancient times, the burial pits were also divided into grades, and some of the burials were related to the tomb owner at that time, and had a little status. For example, concubines, or some relatives. There will be a thin coffin in this kind of burial pit, and there will be some burial goods. And some of them are pure burial pits, most of which are made up of servants or something from the tomb owner's lifetime, or slaves bought with money, and there are no coffins in them, let alone burial goods. Obviously, the burial pit where Jun Lingtian and the others are now belongs to the latter, and it is a burial pit that belongs to the subordinate rank.

According to the previous plan, everyone had to leave the burial pit after going down to the tomb and go to the corridor to the main tomb to meet. Without further ado, Jun Lingtian saw that everyone was safe and sound, so he walked ahead with a flashlight, led everyone out of the burial pit, and walked towards Yongdao.

After all, the tomb is hundreds or even thousands of years old, and the bones piled up in the burial pit at this moment are already extremely fragile, and they will turn into dust when touched lightly, and stepping on it is like stepping on the snow, making a "cooing" sound, which makes people feel worried.

Looking at the piles of dry bones on the ground, Li Xiang'er's ruddy face turned pale. Although it has long been common to work in archaeology, dead people and dead human bones have long been commonplace, but this is the first time that they have seen so many at once. What's more, she has to step on it from above, which makes her who has always respected the dead uncomfortable and difficult to get off her feet.

Just when Li Xiang'er was extremely entangled, she found that Jun Lingtian had already walked out as if nothing had happened, and she didn't care about her at all. gritted her teeth with hatred, Li Xiang'er was ruthless, and she also took steps to chase after her.

In ancient times, there were generally nine burial pits, three on the main one, and three on the left and right sides of the road. The reason for this is because nine is the largest in a single digit, and it also has the meaning of ninety-five.

According to the inference, Jun Lingtian felt that this should be one of the three positives, and Li Lao and the others were one of the other three. It's just that Jun Lingtian is not sure how long the corridor of this murderous tomb is, and how far away the various burial pits are.

Turning the corner, a deep corridor appeared in front of me. Jun Lingtian deduced that it was right, they were now in the position of the three main parts of the burial pit, as long as they walked forward, Li Lao and they should be on the left and right sides of the road. It's just that according to the agreement, Li Lao and the others, who were supposed to meet here, didn't see their flashlight at the moment.

Jun Lingtian was a little surprised by this, but he didn't think much about it. The flashlight casually swept around the road, only to see that the road was paved with quaint green bricks, and the bricks were engraved with Sanskrit characters that he didn't know. Jun Lingtian had already looked at the tomb carefully, and he didn't find that these bricks had Sanskrit at that time, but only turned a corner, these bricks were completely different, and Jun Lingtian was puzzled by this.

looked at Li Xiang'er, the only beauty in the group, suspiciously, thinking that this beauty who specializes in archaeology would have an answer, but found that the beauty also had a confused expression at the moment.

Jun Lingtian smiled unconsciously and self-deprecatingly, he never expected that he was just a normal reaction expression, but he was embarrassed by Li Xiang'er, and his face, which was still miserable before, instantly swelled red.

Looking at Jun Lingtian unconvinced, Li Xiang'er was about to explain, but was stopped by Jun Lingtian's "shhh

Following the light of the flashlight, Jun Lingtian and the others suddenly found that there was a person sitting diagonally in a corner of the corridor not far ahead. This person was wearing a canvas hat and camouflage uniform, with his back to Jun Lingtian and his party, and he sat there motionless with his head tilted.

Although they had already prepared in their hearts, sooner or later they would meet the group of people who had come in first, but in such an environment, encountering them in such a way still made Jun Lingtian and them frightened.

Such a person suddenly appeared in such a tomb, who could he be? Why did he come in? Why did he sit there? Where did his companion go? All kinds of questions surrounded the hearts of Jun Lingtian and the party.
