Chapter 267: Early Morning
Ma Fulai saw that Yi Fatzi's face was not good-looking, so he hurriedly played a round on the side: "The business we did had nothing to do with smooth sailing from the beginning. What Granny Huai means is that now we are all in the same boat, and we should cooperate sincerely with each other, and the treasures in the tomb of the Ming Emperor must be a vehicle bucket, even if anyone wants to swallow it in one bite, I am afraid that there is no such a big stomach to digest. ”
Hearing this, Fat Yi's face softened, his eyes turned on the silk book, nodded and said, "With the help of Master Ma and Granny Huai, this business must not be wrong." ”
As he was talking, he pushed the door in the wood that took the monkey to prepare things, and looked at the fat man whose face had returned to normal and said, "Boss, the things are ready, the monkey is waiting below in the car, I don't know when we can leave?" ”
Yi Fatzi glanced at Chu Heng, who was standing aside, with a smile on his face, patted Chu Heng's shoulder and said, "Brother Chu, it's the first time you have done this kind of business, and you are still inexperienced. After entering the mountains, you must always be vigilant, follow us, and never leave us too far behind. ”
After finishing speaking, Yi Fatzi turned his head again, looked at the wood with a calm face and said: "Wood, the monkey is responsible for making holes, and the safety of Brother Chu will be handed over to you, you are experienced, remember to remind Brother Chu more if you encounter anything." ”
Mu nodded, and saw that Granny Huai and Ma Fulai had already put away the silk books and walked downstairs, hurriedly walked to the table, folded all the oily paper spread on the table, carefully put it into the suitcase, and walked towards the door with it.
Chu Heng saw that Mu Tou was bringing such a large stack of oilskin paper downstairs, hurriedly walked a few steps behind him, closed the door with his hand, and asked curiously: "Granny Huai just now, they have already marked the route hidden in the map, why do you still carry such a large pile of drawings into the mountain?" The road in the mountains is not very easy to walk, and it should be quite troublesome to carry such a large bunch of things over the mountains and mountains, right? ”
"There's no way to know if it's right or wrong until you've completed the marked route." Carrying a suitcase, the wooden man stepped down the creaking wooden staircase, and replied nonchalantly: "Almost all large tombs, after the construction is completed, will be made by the dead men to make final modifications, so as to ensure that the structure of the mausoleum is unknown. Although the builders of this mausoleum managed to preserve the drawings, they could not guarantee that the terrain was exactly the same as that on the silk script. ”
Mu walked down the last step, changed the suitcase to his hand, and turned his head to look at Chu Heng: "The terrain near the mausoleum must have changed a lot in the long years, if you don't bring the geographical map of that time with you, once you encounter the vicissitudes of life, even if you have detailed drawings in your hand, you may not be able to find the location of the mausoleum." ”
Sitting back in the rusty van, coupled with the silent Granny Huai, and Ma Fulai, who rolled his eyes from time to time and didn't know what he was thinking, a group of six people exceeded the original plan, and drove on the road to Tianmen Mountain with the low roar of the engine.
The car is speeding on the highway, and it is a long way from Changsha to Tianmen Mountain, and even if the monkey forcibly raises the speed of the van to the 170 kilometers where the body begins to drift, it still takes nearly four hours to reach Tianmen Mountain, despite the danger of being cared for by the traffic police.
As soon as they got on the bus, they were tired of curling up in the comfortable seats, and after a while, they fell asleep deeply, accumulating energy for the night's actions.
Chu Heng was originally a night owl, and he had never experienced this kind of action before, although he was sitting in the car, his spirit was extremely excited, and he didn't even feel a trace of sleep, so he had to sit by the window with his mobile phone, looking at the lights flashing outside the window, waiting for the end of the long journey.
After five hours of bumpy driving, the dilapidated van finally arrived in front of Tianmen Mountain. The monkey seemed to be extremely familiar with this place, and instead of following the route of the tour bus, he bypassed the back of Tianmen Road, outflanked the back of Yuping Peak, and stumbled up the mountain along a small road that could barely accommodate bread.
Tianmen Mountain was called Yunmeng Mountain in ancient times, also known as Yuping Mountain. In 263 A.D., the collapse of the mountain wall caused a hole in the mountain to open a door, and the north and south became connected.
During the Three Kingdoms, Sun Xiu, the king of Wu, thought that this represented auspiciousness, and immediately gave the name "Tianmen Mountain". Tianmen Mountain is steep and steep, the scenery is magnificent and magnificent, the Tianmen Cave is steaming all the year round, sometimes there are clouds and mist from the hole to spit and surge, or there is a road of glow through the hole, magnificent and magical, just like a fantasy, it is considered to be an auspicious omen by the ancients, and it is often worshiped by it.
Tianmen Mountain has now been developed, except for the steep area that is not open to tourists, other places have been everywhere, tourists are weaving, it seems that there is no hiding place for ancient tombs at all.
The van that was winding along the winding path, after encountering a mountain rock that was washed away by the rain, finally stopped helplessly, Chu Heng and the others walked out of the car with a sigh of relief, stretched their bodies that were shaking by the potholes and mountain roads and were about to fall apart, and after comparing them with the silk book in their hands, they found that according to the marks on the silk book, they had not even reached the periphery of the mausoleum now, and they had to walk more than ten kilometers into the mountains to reach the periphery of the Ming Emperor's mausoleum.
"This stone does not collapse sooner or later, but it collapses when we are going to work, isn't this God's intention to respond to us? Boss, if you want me to say, let's just rest at the foot of the mountain for the night, and then enter the mountain at dawn tomorrow. This black light is blinding, in case a wolf comes out of nowhere, there is no time to react. The monkey looked at a pitch-black mountain forest in the distance, couldn't help but shrink his neck, turned his head to look at Yi Fatzi and said.
"You think we're here for an outing?" Yi Fatzi saw that the monkey had just gotten out of the car, and let the Huai mother-in-law and Ma Fu on the side come to see the joke, and couldn't help but slap the monkey's neck: "This is not far from the tourist route of Tianmen Mountain, and when tourists go up the mountain during the day, maybe there will be tourists coming here to explore." Do you think we're experts in archaeological expeditions with a fixed salary, and we can educate curious tourists about the importance of heritage conservation? ”
"Don't make any noise" Chu Heng took advantage of the monkeys to speak, squatting in front of the boulder that was traversing from a high place and sinking deep into the soft mud, and after carefully observing it, he raised his head and shouted: "Come and see, this boulder does not seem to be naturally formed, but was deliberately placed on the mountain wall." ”
Ma Fulai and Granny Huai were watching Boss Yi teach the monkey with joy, when they suddenly heard Chu Heng's call, their faces sank suddenly, and they hurriedly walked to Chu Heng's side, turned on the wolf tooth flashlight they carried with them, and shone it on the moss-covered boulder.
The soft and thick moss, under the reflection of the snow light, looks hollow, Ma Fulai's eyes flashed a trace of solemnity, and he reached out to remove the moss covering the surface of the stone pillar, revealing the stone carving strange bird that exudes the smell of earth under the moss.
"Not good!" After Ma Fulai and Granny Huai saw the exposed stone carving monster bird, they screamed in unison, reflexively took down a few sapper shovels from the car, and several people worked together to remove the moss covering the boulder.
As soon as Yi Fatzi finished teaching the monkeys, he found that Granny Huai had cleaned up the boulder, frowned, and hurried to the boulder lying on the ground, and asked in a deep voice: "Master Ma, what's going on?" We haven't entered the perimeter of the mausoleum yet, so why are there stones that dare to block here? (To be continued.) )
