Chapter 1210: Trap

Shi Bao had already known the situation in the main tomb in Shi Cheng's description, so he was not surprised, and said lightly: "Shi Cheng said the same thing, but it's a pity that my two legs are useless, otherwise, I would have wanted to go down and find out." ”

Liu Yuhao shook his head and put away the walkie-talkie, he knew that after all, Shi Bao had never entered this tomb, and it would be useless to ask anything by himself, so it was better to make time to carefully observe the situation around him and judge for himself.

Ten minutes later, Liu Yuhao's "visit" activity ended.

"Brother Liu, what's the situation below?"

Shi Bao's voice came from the walkie-talkie, for more than ten minutes, Liu Yuhao didn't speak, Shi Bao and Teng Yi were a little anxious, for fear that Liu Yuhao would have an accident below.

"It's nothing, you guys wait a while, I'll have to see again."

Liu Yuhao came back to his senses for a long time, and it wasn't until Shi Bao's urgent call came three times that he woke up from the shock, and there was a slight tremor in his answer.

This tomb can be said to be the largest intact tomb that Liu Yuhao has seen since he began to study archaeology, and its scale is so large that it has almost hollowed out the entire mountain.

The tomb is divided into three chambers, the front, the middle and the back, which is modeled after the living room before his death, and from the main tomb chamber, the front, middle and back three rooms on both sides, there are ear chambers and side chambers, Liu Yuhao speculated that it was used for storage.

"Oh my God, isn't this tomb more than 500 square meters in area?"

Liu Yuhao's eyes were a little straight, and for a while, he felt that his head couldn't turn around.

The top of the tomb is hewn into a double vault and a slope roof on both sides, and there is a complete drainage system, the two walls of the corridor connecting the main side of the tomb are carved with exquisite patterns, the carving is fine, the engineering is huge, and the momentum is majestic, such a large tomb should be at least the prince level can have, but the strange thing is that he stayed here for almost half an hour, but he could not find any traces of the identity of the tomb owner in the tomb.

Walking out of the main tomb again, Liu Yuhao stroked the right side of the tomb wall with his hand, which was carved with all animals, including turtles and deer, and a huge copper coin was engraved on the top of the road, while the left wall was all carved with various flowers, lifelike, competing for beauty.

"Who is the owner of the tomb?"

Liu Yuhao asked himself in his heart as he walked, and at the same time felt ashamed that he had returned all the knowledge he had learned to the teacher over the years, if the old man Qi was present, he would definitely not be blind like himself, at least, those wall carvings could give the old man enough hints.

Unconsciously, Liu Yuhao walked to the end of the tomb, he glanced around, estimated it, and found that his current location should be the gate of the tomb.

"Huh, how can this be?"

Liu Yuhao was suddenly stunned, his eyes were attracted by what he saw, and he was amazed again and again.

According to the usual funeral habits, when the ancients designed the arc vault of the tomb, they generally closed the tomb door directly with thick soil, and there was no need to "draw snakes and add feet" in the tomb, and set up a thick stone slab more than two people high in the tomb door again.

Strangely, Liu Yuhao found that in the inside of the arc-shaped top side tomb on both sides of the main tomb, two half-cut thick stones were found, tightly fastening the two walls of the tomb, up to four meters high and weighing more than 1,000 catties.

"This kind of tomb design seems to prevent the people inside from coming out, not the tomb robbers from the outside from entering."

Liu Yuhao's mind suddenly flashed with inspiration, and he suddenly made a bold assumption in his heart.

"Brother Liu, come out quickly, I'm going to die in a hurry."

Fuji Yi's anxious voice came from the walkie-talkie, and he shouted three times in a row.

Liu Yuhao ignored Teng Yi, but picked up the walkie-talkie and said in a deep voice: "Brother Shi, where is the location of the thief cave you found after you came in?" ”

After all, Liu Yuhao did not learn to rob tombs professionally, so he couldn't judge where the tomb collapsed naturally and where it was caused by the robbery of the cave in a short period of time, so he had to resort to insurance.

"In the middle of the burial chamber, there are three of the most obvious robbery holes."

Shi Bao pondered for a moment, his thoughts were very clear, and after a while, he said: "Brother Liu, you can take a closer look at the thief cave located in the middle, the few raw pit goods in my hand were found by Shi Cheng there." ”

Liu Yuhao didn't go to the tomb in the middle, when he saw that the tomb was full of broken pottery pieces that didn't even have archaeological value, so he didn't pay attention, and now after Shi Bao reminded him, Liu Yuhao remembered that there were indeed three obvious traces of tomb robbery near the back wall.

The tomb has obviously been stolen many times, leaving behind nothing more than some broken tiles that have no collection value, what the tomb robbers are looking for is a treasure that can be turned into cash, and they are naturally not interested in those broken objects, of course, they will not trace the traces left by others when they rob the tomb, but give Liu Yuhao the opportunity to explore clues.

Liu Yuhao put away the walkie-talkie, strode forward, and soon came to the middle tomb again, the tomb covers an area of less than 20 square meters, the tomb structure is simple, flat roof, there is a small door in the middle and the side room communicates, each room is divided into front and back halls.

"Tyrannical creatures!"

Liu Yuhao sighed and walked in, the interior components are exquisitely carved, the beams of the niches on the left and right walls are engraved with the pattern of pterosaurs and winged tigers, and the back niche is a relief opening diagram.

After turning around the tomb, Liu Yuhao finally found that there were several large holes carved in the back niche stone of the left room, which must be the thief hole that Shi Bao said in his mouth in the early years.

However, Liu Yuhao's excitement was soon replaced by disappointment and frustration.

After painstakingly peeling open the three obvious traces of the robbery hole, Liu Yuhao only saw some fine sand and charcoal that had no value, and other than that, it was some muck, leaving nothing that could solve Liu Yuhao's puzzles, and then released the ability to see through, but he didn't find anything.

This made Liu Yuhao very disappointed.

It is very common to pile up stones, fine sand and charcoal in tombs, which are often stacked to absorb moisture, and to have a certain anti-theft effect.

For example, in the tomb of the Zhongshan King in the Warring States period, large stones of different sizes and shapes are built along the four walls, and the middle pores are filled with pebbles, which are easy to topple, bringing great trouble to the archaeological excavation work.

Filling the tomb with a lot of sand will have the same effect, if the robbers open a tunnel through the side of the tomb and enter the tomb, the stones and sand will quickly pour into the tunnel, burying the robbers instantaneously and sealing the tunnel.

There is a story called "Lu Gonglian" recorded in "Strange Records", and in the end, the tomb robber is swallowed by the water gushing out of the tomb. However, this concept is very difficult to implement technically, and no practical evidence has been found.

"Why is there so much green rust on those objects?"

Liu Yuhao frowned and pondered, those green rusts were obviously traces left by bronze or other metal utensils, but since Liu Yuhao entered the tomb until now, he had not found any metal utensils in the tomb, and this question really puzzled him.

Of course, this is also an important reason why Shi Bao has always been skeptical of this tomb, Liu Yuhao is very unwilling, if nothing is found, it will be meaningless for him to work so hard to enter here.

"What did you find out that there is no Brother Liu?"

Obviously, Shi Bao was also a little out of breath and began to urge constantly.

Liu Yuhao forgot that he was just talking to the walkie-talkie, shook his head, and asked rhetorically: "Brother Shi, why are there so many objects left in the thief hole in the middle?" ”

Shi Bao was stunned and said with a wry smile: "It's hard to say the specific situation because I haven't seen it with my own eyes, but according to Shi Cheng's analysis, those objects should be left behind by the last tomb robber in a panic." ”

While speaking, Shi Bao also sighed in his heart, if it weren't for the pile of objects left behind by the last tomb robber, wouldn't he and Shi Cheng have to waste their efforts and take a huge risk?

Looking at the pile of worthless and meaningless fine sand and charcoal crumbs in front of him, Liu Yuhao didn't know whether he should cry or laugh out loud, his expression was extremely strange.

But in the dark, Liu Yuhao felt that this tomb was by no means as simple as he saw it.

Why did you have such thoughts?

If there is such a strange idea, it is simple for Liu Yuhao to be the only one, which means that his knowledge of archaeology is not strong, but Shi Bao actually has the same idea as him, which makes Liu Yuhao wonder.

Shaking his head, Liu Yuhao stood up and took a few steps back.

When Liu Yuhao felt that his feet were soft, the whole person seemed to be dragged down violently by a force, and he almost fell in.

Stunned for a ten-thousandth of a second, Liu Yuhao didn't have time to think, the powerful ability in the dantian supported his entire body, and at the moment of falling, Liu Yuhao tightly grasped the gap of a stone beside him.

"I'm going!"

After stabilizing his body and making sure that he was safe again, Liu Yuhao, who looked back and saw the situation clearly, gasped at that time, only to feel that the whole person's scalp was numb, the pores were upside down, and a layer of goosebumps appeared all over his body.

Just where Liu Yuhao was standing just now, a piece of bluestone ground floor was still shaking back and forth, making a terrifying "squeak" sound. Liu Yuhao swallowed a mouthful of saliva and looked sideways along the gap in the slate of the slate, and an inexplicable chill suddenly rose from behind his spine.

I saw that there were countless metal thorns densely inserted under the bluestone slab, although the time has been hundreds of years, the metal thorns have been rusted and mottled, and even some have long been rotted and rusted and lost their original role, but if Liu Yuhao, a person of more than 100 catties, really falls, it is estimated that he will still give him a heart-to-heart, and his body is full of countless holes.

"Damn, there's a trap!"

Looking at those metal thorns, Liu Yuhao shouted again and again, if it weren't for his ability to grab the boulder next to him at the last second, the consequences would be unimaginable, and the worst case would be that he would have to give his hundred catties directly to this ancient tomb.

Tomb robbing is risky, so you must be cautious!
