After Xu Gang threw the burden in his hand to Daoyuan, he slowly put Wu Ling'er down from his back, watching her fall asleep and frowning, Xu Gang was very heartbroken, carefully fixed her on the hemp rope, slowly put it down, and after handing it to Daoyuan, he went down along the hemp rope tied by the thieves and came to the tomb.

There is only one door in this tomb, the door is black, I don't know where it leads, the dust on the bluestone ground has also been trampled on very messy, there is a door in the tomb, I don't know where it leads, the left wall of the door is painted with a mural, the painting is a white snow plum blossom, the painting is a woman in a Han skirt, a man in noble clothes accompanies her, it seems to be enjoying the flowers and snow, a plum garden has been built under the painting, the plum tree has long died, some branches have also fallen to the ground, and some rockeries and small pavilions have been built in the tomb.

Xu Gang stood in front of the mural in a daze, always feeling that this place was familiar as if he had been here not long ago. Suddenly, a thought popped up in Xu Gang's mind: Everbright light!

He walked around the wall with a torch, but found no permanent lights on the wall.

"Xu Gongzi, what's wrong with you?" Daoyuan lit a fire on the ground and illuminated the entire burial chamber.

"Well, it's fine! Daoyuan, do you think the people in this painting are the Zhonglang General and his wife? Looking at the very sweet appearance of the two of them, he couldn't help but look at Wu Ling'er sleeping next to the fire, and his eyes were full of pity.

"I guess so! Xu Gongzi, that group of tomb robbers went in that direction, let's hurry up and follow, right? Daoyuan pointed to the door, and with the burden on his back, he reached for the bundle of sharp sticks.

Xu Gang also hurriedly tied Wu Ling'er to his back and walked towards the door with Daoyuan.

After this tomb gate, there is a long alleyway, about three feet wide, with the brightness of the torch, there is no end at all, Xu Gang and the two walked ten steps, then the bluestone brick in the middle of the tomb road was raised, took out a shovel, dug a trap, and put a sharp wooden stick in the trap.

"Young Master Xu, why is this tomb so long? I always felt that something was wrong! Dao Yuan turned his head to look at Xu Gang and said the doubts in his heart.

"Be careful!" Xu Gang suddenly grabbed Dao Yuan and didn't let him continue to move forward.

"What's the matter, Gongzi Xu?" Daoyuan's heart tightened, he felt a chill behind him, and slowly turned his head over.

Nothing!

"Xu Gongzi, you are so shocked, you scared me to death!" Daoyuan breathed a sigh of relief and patted his chest.

Xu Gang pointed to the ground helplessly: "I just want to tell you that the front is the first trap we laid earlier!" ”

"What?" Dao Yuan followed Xu Gang's finger and looked at the ground, it was the first trap he had personally laid.

"Could it be a ghost hitting the wall?" Daoyuan suddenly thought of ghosts and ghosts.

Xu Gang shook his head, and his intuition told him that it wasn't some ghost hitting the wall.

Although Xu Gang was also a little frightened in his heart, he had to force himself to calm down, otherwise it would be more dangerous, he frowned and analyzed: "Why are we obviously moving forward, why are we back in front of the first trap?" Unless we're going around in a big circle. ”

Dao Yuan asked rhetorically: "Young Master Xu, do you mean that this tomb is a big circle?" ”

Xu Gang stared at the flames on the torch with his eyes open, pondered for a while, and nodded: "I'm not sure, I have a way, maybe I can determine if we are going in circles!" ”

"What's the solution?"

"I'll show you!" After speaking, Xu Gang took out three sharp sticks from the trap, first nailed one to the ground, and then after walking ten steps, he nailed another one to the ground.

"Fetch me a rope!"

When Daoyuan heard this, he took a rope and handed it to Xu Gang, but he still didn't see what Xu Gang said.

I saw Xu Gang tie one end of the rope to the first sharp stick, straighten the rope, tie it to the second sharp stick, and then walked to the middle and nailed the third sharp stick to the ground next to the rope.

"Every three sticks, you can stretch the rope into a straight line, so that if you nail it down, you can see whether the route we are taking is straight or not!" Xu Gang clapped his hands, and his tone was full of confidence.

"Oh, I see! Xu Gongzi, you are so smart. Daoyuan looked at Xu Gang's gaze at this time, full of admiration.

The two nailed the first stick in the middle of the passage, then every ten steps, and when they were about to nail the sixth, they found that they could not connect in a straight line—they were blocked by the wall.

"Alright, let's find out if there are any mechanisms within this range first." Xu Gang held a sharp stick in his hand and pointed to the walls on both sides.

Xu Gang and the others were each responsible for one side of the wall, and launched a seamless investigation, and when they used a stick of incense, they finished the investigation.

"I don't have any mechanism here, what about you, Young Master Xu?" Daoyuan's speed is much faster than Xu Gang's, after all, Xu Gang still has a Wu Ling'er on his back.

"Well, there's a brick here that's a little loose!" Xu Gang pointed to a brick about four feet high on the wall, which looked a little dented, and was about to press it with his hand, when Dao Yuan, who leaned over, grabbed his arm and stopped his movement.

"Master Xu, be careful, I'm alone, I'm more flexible than you, let me come."

Xu Gang handed the sharp stick in his hand to Daoyuan, said "be careful", and then retreated five steps away, leaning against the wall with the mechanism.

Daoyuan took the torch and carefully inspected the surrounding walls and other places, and after there was no abnormality, he was ready to start, he also leaned against the wall, and carefully pressed the loose brick inward with a wooden stick.

"Boom, boom, boom......" A slight thunderclap was heard, and a crack about a foot wide in a wall about two people parallel to the left of the brick was seen.

Daoyuan retreated to Xu Gang's side as early as he made a sound, and saw that the door was not moving, as if there was no scene such as "sharp arrows coming out and poisonous water spraying", so he walked up again and opened the door completely, but the moment Daoyuan raised his head, he froze.

"What's wrong?" Xu Gang saw that Daoyuan was not moving, and walked forward while asking.

"This ......" he walked to Daoyuan's side, looked inside, and saw a lamp on the wall, illuminating half of the tomb, and several people lying on the ground, all full of arrows, all dead anymore, as if they had accidentally touched the mechanism, judging from their costumes, it was the companion of the previous tomb robber.

"What smells so bad?" Daoyuan suddenly covered his nose and said.

"Well, it smells like rotting corpses." Xu Gang also hurriedly covered his nose.

The two looked at each other, and both looked at the corpses of the tomb robbers on the ground.

"It shouldn't have been emitted by them, they shouldn't have been dead for a long time, and it can't be that they stink so quickly." Xu Gang put forward his own idea.

After hearing this, Daoyuan nodded in agreement.

"Roar~~~"

Just as they were both deep in thought, a deep voice came from the passage.
