Naturally, it was impossible for Baiyang to force the two sons of the village chief to continue to follow them, so he could only ask in detail how it would be easier to walk, and then bid farewell to the two brothers and set out on the mountain road leading to the direction of Laohuling.

After walking for about an hour, I finally arrived at the foot of Tiger Ridge.

Xu Hua stretched out his hand and pointed upwards and said, "The tomb cannot be built at the foot of the mountain, it is most likely on the mountainside." You see there's a mountain nest there, so let's climb up to it and see. ”

He was the only one who had experience in inverted fighting, and Poplar and the others naturally listened to him.

It took another twenty minutes for the group to arrive at the nest.

It was a flat hill halfway up the mountain, but because the slope was quite large, it looked like the whole mountain had been recessed inward.

But before they could take a closer look, a few tools thrown on the hillside first caught their attention.

"It seems that these are the tools dropped by the four inverted buckets before!" said Hongxing, who had been thrown in the field for more than half a month, and they already looked rusty.

"I don't know if they found the tomb!" said Poplar.

Nowadays, tools like this are hard to buy on the market, so unless someone like me has washed his hands and doesn't dry them, ordinary inverters will never leave their tools behind!" Xu Hua said, with a look of worry on his face, "I don't know what these four people have encountered, and they will be so scared that they will throw all these tools here!"

"No matter what it is, let's all come, let's see if there is a big tomb in this area first!"

Xu Hua nodded, looked at the surrounding terrain for a long time, nodded his head, and said: "This place is indeed very good feng shui, but it's a pity that the mountain on the right is too flat, otherwise this place will really be a princely cemetery like no other!"

Originally, on the left and right sides of this mountain, there were other green hills, but the mountain on the right was much lower than the mountain on the left, resulting in a great asymmetry between the left and right sides.

From the perspective of Feng Shui, it is the failure to form a trend of green dragons and white tigers surrounding.

The tiger's waist that I just saw from a distance is the flat mountain on the right.

Bai Yang had other thoughts in his heart, and said: "If there is really a Tang Dynasty tomb below, then the Tang Dynasty has been nearly two thousand years ago, maybe the mountain on the right has collapsed, which has caused the green dragon and white tiger on the left and right to be not symmetrical." ”

Xu Hua nodded, agreeing with his idea.

Hong Xing raised her eyebrows and said, "So both of you think that there is indeed a big tomb down here?"

Bai Yang was silent, and Xu Hua said: "Whether there is a tomb or not, you still have to explore to be sure!"

As he spoke, he opened a snakeskin bag containing tools and took out a tool from it.

The tip of the tool looked like a thick steel pipe cut through it, and the tip was very sharp. A slightly thinner steel pipe is welded to the back, and the tip of the pipe is threaded.

"This is the Luoyang shovel?" asked Poplar as soon as he opened his mouth.

"You can call it the Luoyang shovel, but this is improved, your archaeological team calls him the archaeological shovel!" Xu Hua said, smiling at the poplar, "The traditional Luoyang shovel is a wooden handle, which can't go very deep, and now it has been changed to a steel pipe handle, which can be added up section by section, and the deepest can penetrate into a deep soil layer of more than ten or twenty meters." However, the tombs of the Tang Dynasty can generally be explored five or six meters down, and if it is a tomb before the Warring States Period, it will be ten or twenty meters deep!"

As he spoke, he took a step up and down the hillside, as if searching for the exact direction of the shovel.

Bai Yang and the others all looked at him, and suddenly heard his "huh", and said: "Someone has shoveled here, and more than one group of people have shoveled here!"

Bai Yang and the others immediately went over to look, and sure enough, they saw a fairly clear small hole in the ground, and there were several small soil nests next to the hole.

Xu Hua lifted the archaeological shovel and aimed it at a soil nest and inserted it down.

Very easily, the archaeological shovel went down a lot.

I tried several earthen nests in a row, and the situation was the same.

Obviously, these soil nests are also the shovel holes of the archaeological shovel, or the Luoyang shovel, but the orifice is partially covered by the soil to form a soil nest.

Xu Hua finally inserted the archaeological shovel into the very clear hole, and sighed: "This tomb exploration hole should be left by the four inverted people half a month ago!"

"That means it's unlikely that there will be a tomb in this place?" asked Poplar, feeling half cold.

"Even if there is, I'm afraid that someone has dug it up!" Xu Hua said with a frown.

"What then, do you want to try again?" said Hongxing.

"Let's try it! It's all here, how can you be willing if you don't try?" Xu Hua said.

He carried the Luoyang shovel and took two steps to the side, and then got off the shovel.

The shovel was very sharp, and Xu Hua, with his own strength, actually lowered the shovel to a depth of half a meter, and only a small part of the shovel handle left outside.

Only then did Xu Hua open the two snakeskin bags containing the tools, took out a steel pipe nearly one meter long from inside, and tightened it with the thread of the handle of the archaeological shovel.

After that, he took out a short-handled hammer and handed it to Tie Niu, and asked him to aim at the top of the steel pipe and hit it down.

Because a rubber plug is added to the top of each section of the steel pipe, there is no fear of breaking the steel pipe thread.

Xu Hua connected another section of steel pipe at the head, and then let the iron bull beat it down.

In this way, seven or eight sections of steel pipes were connected, and they had reached about eight meters below. Xu Hua shook the exposed steel pipe with his hand, frowned and asked Poplar and Tie Niu to pull up the shovel.

The shovel was very deep in the soil, so it was naturally not easy to pull out, but the poplar and the iron ox were both powerful, and it didn't take long to pull out the shovel.

Xu Hua looked at the soil at the shovel head, sniffed it with his nose again, and his brows furrowed more and more tightly.

"How is Uncle Xu?"

Hongxing asked, showing a nervous face, obviously the pressure she was under was no less than that of Baiyang.

"It's all solid soil down there, and there's no big tomb!" Xu Hua said.

"Will it ...... We haven't fought deep enough?" Iron Bull asked.

"Even if it's not deep enough, as long as there is a big tomb underneath, the color, density, and smell of the soil will be different, but this shovel of soil is ordinary deep soil!"

"Why don't you try shoveling down to the side?" said Iron Bull.

Xu Hua shook his head and said, "If there is a big tomb, its central location must be the place where we just shoveled! If this place cannot be detected, it will be in vain to shovel in other places." ”

"After all, everyone says that there are ancient tombs in this place, and it won't be completely gone!" said Tie Niu, still looking full of energy, "or you can help me point out the place, and I'll dig down!"

Bai Yang knew that Tie Niu was relieving Hongxing, but in fact, when he saw Hongxing's face of frustration, he couldn't bear it, and even regretted that he shouldn't have had an argument with this little girl yesterday.

After all, whether to come to the tomb or not is his own idea, Hongxing is just providing a clue, even if there is no tomb, he shouldn't blame Hongxing.

So Bai Yang nodded and said: "Lao Hei is right, since many people say that there is a big tomb here, it doesn't have to be groundless, let's try it with two more shovels!"

"You also said that it is a big tomb, since it is a big tomb, it is impossible to completely deviate to the side! But if you want to put down a few more shovels, you can go down, but it is past noon at this time, so let's eat something to pad your stomach first!"

Xu Hua was obviously not energetic, and Bai Yang and Tie Niu did feel a little hungry, so they had to sit down and eat something.

But just when the poplar general was not seated, he glanced at it, but saw something flashing and flashing.

At this moment, it was noon, and the sun was falling overhead, illuminating the entire mountain nest very brightly.

At the very top of the nest, however, there is still a small depression covered by the shadow cast by the protruding rocks on the top.

And the flickering light that Poplar saw was in that small depression.

And the light was not white, but a very strange green color.

Poplar hurriedly looked closely, but the glittering light had disappeared, and as far as the eye could see, it was only a small depression covered by shadows.

Poplar felt strange in his heart, and immediately walked to the depression to take a closer look.

But the depression was just a sparse stretch of weeds, and nothing that would glow.

"What's the matter, Lao Bai, what are you looking at?" Iron Bull asked.

"It's nothing, I've just been dazzled!"

Poplar replied casually, walked back again, opened his backpack, took out dry food and water, handed some to Tie Niu, and sat down first.

Tie Niu saw Hongxing sitting far away alone, so he smiled at Baiyang, then walked to Hongxing and sat down, while eating, he racked his brains to make Hongxing happy. It's a pity that the red apricot has never said a word.

Poplar ate a few mouthfuls of dry food, took out a military kettle and drank a few sips of water, then put down the kettle and stood up, and ran to the depression to take a closer look.

"What are you looking at, Lao Bai?" Tie Niu also walked over.

"I can't tell!" said Poplar, lowering his voice, "I always feel that there is indeed a tomb in this area!"

"Why do you think that?" Iron Bull immediately asked.

"Because ......" Bai Yang thought about it for a moment, and glanced at Hongxing and Xu Hua, who were sitting far away, "Do you remember that in the old forest I was taking care of, just before you stepped into a crack in the ground, I saw some ...... Strange stuff?"

"Remember!" Iron Bull nodded immediately, "You said you saw two...... The wolf or the dog barked at you, and I was bitten by something weird......! You're not going to see that weird thing again, are you?"
