In the tomb where they couldn't see their fingers, Guo Jing and Xu Bin held flashlights in their hands and walked forward tremblingly in the dark. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 infoThis tomb road is not long, only a few hundred meters, but Professor Guo and the others have not seen the tomb for more than ten minutes.

The silence in the tomb is numb, only the rustle of leather shoes against the ground, if people with poor psychological quality stay in the dark and silent tomb for hours, I am afraid that they will be frightened into insanity.

Professor Guo and Xu Bin often conducted archaeological excavations in the tombs, sometimes staying all day, but they were accustomed to the maddening silence and horror.

It's just that Qin Fan was surprised that Yu Jun, who was following him, was very calm all the way, not at all like it was the first time to enter this kind of ancient tomb, which made Qin Fan feel a little suspicious in his heart.

"It's here! In front of it is the burial chamber. ”

After walking in the dark in the tomb for about twenty minutes or so, Qin Fan and the others finally found the location of the tomb chamber.

"Generally speaking, the large tombs of the Western Zhou Dynasty had only one or two tomb passages, and the burial chamber could be found as long as you followed the tomb passages. Unlike some underground royal tombs, the tomb roads are criss-crossed, and it is easy to get lost after entering the tomb road. Professor Guo has participated in the excavation of many well-known royal tombs, and knows the danger of them, and many tomb robbers may leave their lives in the tomb forever if they are not careful, and be the companion of the tomb owner.

Since nothing abnormal happened along the way, Guo Jing's tense nerves suddenly relaxed, and he unconsciously relaxed his vigilance.

Guo Jing flashed a flashlight with excitement on her face and walked quickly in the direction of the tomb. However, it was too dark in the tomb to notice what was underfoot.

"Walk slowly, watch your step." Qin Fan always felt that their trip seemed to be a little too smooth, but he was a little worried in his heart.

"It's okay, Brother Qin, you take care of grandpa, let's come here."

Before Guo Jing finished speaking, he accidentally stepped on a wooden seesaw, and suddenly there was a strange sound in the tomb, which instantly lifted everyone's hearts.

"Not good, there are traps."

At this time, Qin Fan's face changed wildly. He saw that the moment Guo Jing stepped on the wooden seesaw, a boulder hanging at the top of the tomb suddenly dehooked, fell towards Guo Jing quickly, and smashed into her head.

This boulder weighs about fifty catties, and it falls quickly from the top of such a high tomb, and once it hits a tomb robber, it can instantly smash people into meatloaf.

Xu Bin subconsciously rushed over and pushed Guo Jing away, and just as he was about to be hit by a boulder, a big hand suddenly grabbed him, and then pulled him backwards violently.

Rumble!

The boulder hanging on the top of the tomb was smashed down less than ten centimeters away from Xu Bin, if Qin Fan was half a step late just now, I am afraid that one of Xu Bin's legs would be broken by this boulder.

"Binzi, are you okay?"

Guo Jing's face was frightened, and she suddenly threw herself into Xu Bin's arms and cried. If Xu Bin had three strengths and two weaknesses just now, she would never forgive herself for the rest of her life.

"Okay, it's fine." Xu Bin was also frightened, and he looked like he had palpitations, and threw a grateful look at Qin Fan.

Qin Fan took a closer look and found that there were several long wooden seesaws on the ground of the cemetery, which were difficult to find in the dark tomb. Once a tomb robber accidentally steps on it, the boulder hanging on the top of the tomb will automatically fall off when pressed by an external force, and hit the person who stepped on the wooden seesaw.

"Professor Guo, isn't this trap a rope hanging stone?"

Qin Fan remembered that he had seen this kind of trap in a book, this iron cable hanging stone functions similarly to a chain flap, and the designer of the mausoleum fixed a number of metal pulleys on the top of the tomb and in the hidden places of the walls, and used the pulleys to lift the boulder and hang it at the top.

Then a long wooden seesaw is laid on the ground of the cemetery, and the chain is lowered by the stone slab, and the seesaw is connected in a concealed way by a pulley, and there is a hook and unhook in the middle to connect, and it will automatically fall off when it encounters external pressure.

If a tomb robber enters the tomb and steps on the seesaw carelessly, the external force forces the tight chains to unhook, just like the wheel of the well is suddenly relaxed, and the hanging stone falls rapidly, slapping the tomb robber into a meatloaf.

Professor Guo nodded, and said with a solemn expression, "This iron cable hanging stone mechanism is not common in the tombs of the Western Zhou Dynasty, I didn't expect to meet it here." Young man, I really thanked you for your timely action just now, otherwise Xiaobin would have died to go back. ”

Before entering this tomb, no one expected that there would be such a dangerous mechanism hidden inside, and it almost killed them.

"Everyone be careful, the mechanism of the iron cable hanging stone will generally hang three layers on the top of the tomb."

Hearing Professor Guo's words, everyone's faces were a little unpleasant. These boulders fall so fast that even if you know in advance, you might be hit if you react half a beat slower.

"Grandpa, there are a lot of organs ahead, I think let's get here first today." After escaping death, Guo Jing was also much more cautious, and he didn't know what kind of traps were waiting for them when he went forward.

The burial chamber inside this tomb does not look like it has been visited by tomb robbers, and the artifacts inside should still be intact. In this case, Professor Guo and the others should go out first and report the situation to the government, so that the state can send an archaeological team to conduct in-depth excavations.

"Ahh

But at this moment, a scream suddenly sounded in the tomb, and a layer of white sweat floated on everyone's body.

Xu Bin was just about to speak, when the back of his neck suddenly hit him hard, and he fainted before he could scream.

"Binzi!"

Guo Jing screamed in surprise and went up to hug Xu Bin, and at this time, the muzzle of a black hole was against her head.

"Guide Yu, what are you doing here?"

In front of Professor Guo and Qin Fan, Yu Jun, who had always been taciturn, suddenly showed his fierce face, smashed Xu Bin with a shot, and aimed his gun at them.

"Shut up, old and immortal. If it weren't for you meddling guys, how could the thief hole that Lao Tzu had worked so hard to dig be discovered. Yu Jun said viciously, since Professor Guo and the others discovered this thief hole, he never thought of letting these people leave here alive. Otherwise, once this tomb is exposed, all his efforts will be in vain.

"What, you hit this thief hole?"

It wasn't until this time that Professor Guo and the others knew that Yu Jun was the tomb robber who had made this robbery hole. The village chief once said that this Yu army often went into the mountains to hunt, sometimes for several days at a time. Now it seems that he did not go hunting in the mountains at all, but came to rob tombs.

"Could this Yu Jun be the eighth Yu in Boss Miao's tomb robbery gang? I didn't expect him to be so bold and dare to continue robbing the tomb when he was wanted by the police. ”

Qin Fan chuckled in his heart, no wonder he looked at Yu Jun as if he was a little familiar, he had seen Yu Jun's wanted warrant from Officer Yang before. But fortunately, Yu Jun didn't recognize him, otherwise Qin Fan would probably be in the mouth of a tiger.

"Yu Jun, what do you want?"

"Lao Tzu has been digging holes for so long to dig here, and it looks like he is about to hit the tomb, but he was disturbed by a few of you. What do you say Lao Tzu should do to you? Yu Jun laughed and kicked Xu Bin twice.

After venting, Yu Jun raised his gun and pointed it at Qin Fan. His eyes were like a cruel and bloodthirsty wolf, and he said coldly, "Boy, if you want to die, listen to Lao Tzu's words, if you dare to play any tricks, Lao Tzu will kill you with one shot." ”

"Big brother, we have something to say. You're just trying to make money, there's no need to kill someone. ”

This Yu Jun is an outlaw, after Qin Fan helps him open the tomb, I'm afraid he won't let Professor Guo and the others leave alive. And now that the gun is in Yu Jun's hands, Qin Fan has no good way, he can only take one step at a time.

"Don't talk nonsense to Lao Tzu, go to the tomb and hear it."

Yu Jun impatiently kicked Qin Fan's ass and put a gun to the back of his head. As long as Qin Fan made any moves, he would shoot without hesitation and break his head with one shot.

As for Professor Guo, several of them are old, weak, sick and disabled, without the guidance of Yu Jun, these people would not be able to get out of this mountain at all, and there was no signal in the mountain, so they were not afraid of running out to call the police.

Yu Jun and Qin Fan groped their way forward in the tomb one after another, carefully bypassing the traps in the tomb and came to the front of the tomb.

However, an extremely strong rammed earth wall was built in front of the tomb, blocking Yu Jun and Qin Fan from the outside.

This rammed earth wall is the core line of defense of the tomb, and a layer of hard soil is so solid that even a sapper shovel knocks on it and leaves only a white mark.

The so-called rammed earth is a material in ancient Chinese architecture, which is a compacted mixed mud block with strong density and few gaps.

The Chinese civilization has been using rammed earth technology for a very long time, from the Neolithic Age to the fifties and sixties of the last century, it has been used on a large scale, even in modern times, there are some remote mountainous areas in the use of rammed earth.

The rammed earth layer requires a large number of laborers to carry out high-intensity physical labor to complete, ranging from more than 1,000 people to tens of thousands of people. In ancient times, it was generally only possible for kings and great nobles or large slave owners to gather such a large number of laborers to build rammed earth walls.

Ancient buildings like the Great Wall, the Forbidden City, the Mawangdui Han Tomb, and the Mausoleum of Qin Shi Huang that we see now are all based on rammed earth, so they can be so firm.

Although the rammed earth wall in front of Qin Fan was not very thick, it was not so easy for tomb robbers to dig a hole in it with a shovel.

Seeing this rammed earth wall, Yu Jun was not surprised. There are no signs of damage on this rammed earth wall, which means that the tomb has not been visited by other tomb robbers, and the artifacts inside are still intact.

Yu Jun had already planned that as long as he broke through this rammed earth wall and got the cultural relics inside, he would then destroy Qin Fan and the others, and then go away and smuggle them abroad, and after selling these cultural relics, he could enjoy the rest of his life.
