34. The forbidden road
Three flashes of green light. The two men who were fiddling with the jar fell to the ground.
The dwarf moved at the wind, his neck lifted, and the crossbow bolt was nailed into the rock behind him.
The dwarf reacted quickly and reached for the winch almost simultaneously.
It's a pity that he still couldn't avoid Xian Yuyan's attack, and the two knives fell together, and the person was cut into three pieces.
Xian Yuyan first fell outside the entrance of the cave, only to find that along with the main rope into the cave, there was a thin rope, tied with a small bell at intervals.
Yu Nuohai also floated over with the help of flying claws. I took a closer look at the things that the other party brought, most of them were prepared for the drill mountain, and there was nothing suspicious. Immediately several more corpses were searched, and there was nothing suspicious. Three crossbow bolts were recovered.
Afraid that the three of them would not die completely, Yu Nuohai took out another knife and cut them into several pieces, and also stuffed them into the stone crack where they stuffed things.
"Why are you so cruel?" said Xian Yuyan as she helped stuff the corpse.
"I'm calling it a wise man. I didn't see how clean the place was after the work was done. ”
After Yu Nuohai finished speaking, he handed the mask he took off from the three of them to Xian Yuyan, put one on himself, and stuffed another one in his arms.
"Why only give me one?"
"There are only three of them, and they can't be divided equally, saying you're waiting outside. One is enough. ”
"Why am I waiting outside?" Xian Yuyan knew that he was making fun of his body shape, but he was still unconvinced.
"Don't fight with the little brother, if I come out for a while, it's three, two, one and ring the bell back and forth, if it's not like this, you have to be careful. ”
Shake it three times, shake it twice, shake it once. And so on.
Xian Yuyan took a look at the thief hole, he really couldn't get into it, if he really went in, he was afraid that he would die for a lifetime, not only the hidden arrow, but also the four masters on the other side, Yu Nuohai, this kid is not only ruthless to others, but also not distressed by himself at all.
"Can't you shoot four of your crossbow arrows at once?"
"Haha, that method can only be used for sneak attacks, and I'm afraid it won't work if you have to deal with those few people for a while. Rest assured. ”
Yu Nuohai heard Xian Yuyan's concern for him, he, turned around and performed collarbone kung fu, and got in.
The whole thief hole is more than three zhang long, and the traces of piercing and chiseling are smooth and smooth, which shows the superb technology. Yu Nuohai couldn't help but admire while crawling, but it's a pity that such a skilled drill rat can only feed the wild mice in the mountains now.
Looking further into the crypt, Yu Nuohai couldn't help but be taken aback.
The entire belly of the mountain has been hollowed out, and from the location of the robbery hole, it is more than ten zhang upwards and more than twenty zhang downwards, all of which are a void.
The whole crypt imitates the pattern structure of the round sky, the top of the rock is the sky, and the whole rock top is hewn into a round cover, which can really be described as a dome. The stone walls are finely polished, like a bronze mirror, reflecting the light below.
On the dome, with gold, silver and precious stones, the sun, moon and stars were made, and there were twenty-eight constellations. The sun and moon are very huge, each with a radius of more than three feet, and it seems that they are set with many luminous gemstones.
The top of the cave hangs down a chain every other day, hangs a lot of copper tripods, and in the copper tripod is the everlasting lamp that will not be extinguished for ten thousand years.
The smooth stone walls, the huge sun and moon, and countless stars reflect the light of the ever-bright lamp, illuminating the ground like day.
At the bottom of the cave is the earth in the sense of feng shui. The earth is boxy, surrounded by mercury paved into the four seas, and jade and agate are piled up into Penglai, abbot and other overseas fairy mountains.
A city was built on the ground, which was also built in imitation of the regulations of Chang'an City, and the city wall, the alleys, the Suzaku Street, the east and west cities, the imperial city, and the palace city were clearly recognizable. It's much smaller, but it's the size of an ordinary village.
The four people who came down earlier were slowly walking towards the direction of Miyagi.
Yu Nuohai looked at it and couldn't help but sigh at the strength of the Tang Dynasty and the high wisdom of the ancestors.
The steaming breath of mercury was highly poisonous, but fortunately I wore their masks and came down. Yu Nohai fiddled with the mask again to make sure it fit his face completely, leaned out, and swam down the rope like a spider.
What secrets are hidden in Zhaoling? Yu Nuohai was more and more aroused by these people.
He used the skill of the Take-off Sky Spider, and soon went down to the ground, not daring to be careless, and picking up the place where the other party had stepped on it. Since the opponent has a map in his hand, he must know how to dodge the mechanism.
Under the underground palace is a huge blue brick paving, accumulated over the years, a thick layer of dust, people walk in it, the footprints of trampling are very obvious.
Yu Nuohai can also see that there is a secret evolution method of the Five Elements Bagua in this city, but he is not proficient in learning and art, and he does not understand it, and he cannot apply it to actual combat. If you are found out in a while, you have to be careful when fighting.
After thinking carefully about the next countermeasures, Yu Nuohai took out a few items from his treasure bag and tied them to his ankles and wrists respectively.
The appearance of these things is like fixing a few iron pipes on the leather bracers, and there are three flying claws hidden in the iron pipes, connected with extremely fine and tough silk, which is more than ten zhang long, and the engine spring will automatically adjust the length of the wire according to the length of the distance, which is very exquisite.
These are all auxiliary equipment when using flying spiders, and the name is very simple, just spider silk.
Yu Nuohai flicked his wrist, and the three steel claws of his right arm shot out at once, deeply inserting into the wall on the side of the street, and paused, the strength was enough. After the commissioning is completed, it will be withdrawn immediately.
The other party also seems to be careful. The four of them walked over, but only a pair of footprints were left along the way, and it seemed that they were also walking in the footsteps of their predecessors.
Yu Nuohai tiptoed and quickly caught up.
There are some terracotta warriors and horse warriors in the alleys, and there are many clay sculptures of people, chariots and horses in the streets, calling for buying and selling, one by one, lifelike, as if it was really Chang'an.
When it came to the imperial city, it was full of mercenaries, infantry, cavalry, archers, baggage soldiers, etc., each of which was the same height as ordinary people. Each branch of the army has a chief and deputy general who is a taller person.
Opposite to the armies, there is a point of generals, there are many generals on the stage, there is a Qin character on the handsome flag in the middle, and a tall terracotta figurine, wearing Xuan armor, heroic, should be the appearance of Taizong when he was the king of Qin.
The flags between the ranks seem to be led by silk threads, although there is no wind, but fluttering, strict and solemn, stirring the mind.
In the imperial city, there are hundreds of official figurines. Inside the palace, there are clay figurines of concubines, maids and eunuchs, and the clothes and ornaments on their bodies are depicted in colorful and gorgeous clothes.
Within the Miyagi, the scale of the longer An's real Miyagi is much smaller, and only a few typical temples have been built, but the size of each temple is almost the same as the actual one.
The four of them carefully avoided these terracotta figurines, and continued to move forward, and came to a palace, which was the Xuanzheng Hall where the emperors of the past dynasties presided over the government.
The Xuanzheng Hall here is slightly different from the actual one, and the two doors are huge white marble doors.
There are two stone statues in front of the Xuanzheng Palace, one holding a double mace, one holding a double whip, and the weapons are all made of real copper and steel.
The man at the head waved his hand, and suddenly one of them followed, and each of them walked towards a stone statue.
"You grab the steel whip in his left hand, and after I turn three times, you follow three times to the right. ”
The leader gave a soft instruction, and immediately grabbed the copper mace in the stone man's right hand, and pushed the stone man to turn three times to the left with a shout. The people next to him followed closely and acted as instructed.
The courtyard here is very small, and Yu Nuohai has already carefully tried to hide behind the roof of a large hall, monitoring everyone while investigating the surrounding scenery.
After the two of them turned the stone man, they saw that the "sea water" outside the palace suddenly stirred, pushing a huge waterwheel to turn faster and faster.
Immediately afterwards, the tall stone door of the Xuanzheng Hall slowly opened.
The four of them cautiously rushed in.
Yu Nuohai did not dare to step on the roof tiles at will, so he could only fly on the beams between the corridors with flying claws, and selected the beams between the corridors of a hall.
The windows of the main hall are all made of brass, which is dazzling.
But looking inside, it is also modeled on the appearance of Taizong's last dynasty, and the clay statue of the military general of Wenchen is sculpted, which is probably a character in the Lingyan Pavilion. On the dragon chair, Taizong was sitting in a yellow robe, of course, this is also a clay sculpture. More than a dozen ever-bright lights are lit, and you can see very clearly.
Taizong has always been frugal, so although the scale of Zhaoling is large, the construction of the mausoleum is ingenious. Along the way, I didn't see any extravagant funeral things. Even in this Xuanzheng Palace, most of the shelves on the two compartments are things that Taizong used during his lifetime. Compared with the legendary gold and silver mountains in the tombs of emperors and marquises, the difference is too far.
Nothing too valuable, what are these people going to do?
The man in charge took out the map again, flipped through it several times, and it seemed that what he wanted was not marked on the map.
It can't be done overnight, that person simply destroyed all the organs in the Xuanzheng Palace, and it was very simple to do it according to the map, just twisted a stone dragon on Taizong's right hand a few times, and saw that the floor in the middle opened, and the huge copper tripod on it suddenly fell.
The copper tripod fell, pulling many iron chains and rattling, and the whole hall shook.
The agitation subsided, and several people began to rummage around.
After about half an hour, the four of them searched almost the entire hall, but they still didn't find what they were looking for.
He turned out a box of gold, silver, and jewelry, poured it out, and looked at it, and threw it aside. There was also nothing in it that they wanted.
These people did not come for gold or silver.
"Could the news be fake?"
"Could it be in his coffin?"
Two people became impatient and asked softly.
"Think about it again, where else have we revealed? According to the situation on the map, Taizong's funeral goods are all placed here. The leader whispered.
"I've searched through it, why can't I go and see inside the coffin?"
"If you want to live, don't go. These maps do not indicate the exact location of the coffin, but they mark three roads that must not be tread, according to the Yan Liben brothers, once the coffin is inside, it cannot be exited, and it cannot be entered. ”
"This-Taizong advertised that he was a benevolent and righteous monarch before his death, and he couldn't imagine that after his death, he would still have to take a living person to accompany him for burial. ”
"There are no living people buried here. ”
"And what about the person who delivered the coffin?"
