The crisis began with calm, and then came in an instant, seeing that the stone chamber was in chaos, the little carpenter, who was originally like a little mouse to be slaughtered, but at this time, on the nearby wall, saw a secret mark of Lu Banjiao.

His master told him about this, and it was called "Tibetan Humble Gate".

What is the "Hidden Gate"?

Lubanjiao originated from the group of craftsmen, and among the craftsmen, there is a very special group, that is, craftsmen who specialize in helping big people repair cemeteries. Generally speaking, in order to prevent others from knowing the location of the cemetery and preventing the news from leaking and being robbed of the tomb, after the tomb is completed, all the craftsmen and coolies will be killed together to accompany the burial, and the smart craftsman will avoid the face of the overseer in the process of construction and build an escape route.

This escape passage was built in the process of continuous changes, sneaking, clumsy, and finally formed, so it was named.

Among the Qimen gossip, there are eight kinds of "open door, closed door, birth door, injury door, Du door, Jing door, death door, and surprise door", and this hidden door is also called the birth door.

The life of a craftsman.

Seeing this, the little carpenter's heart was a little relieved, and taking advantage of the chaos around him, he jumped suddenly, next to the wall, knocked twice with the back of his hand, and avoided a short arrow with an iron cluster, and pushed hard, and found that there was really a secret door here.

The little carpenter was overjoyed, opened the secret door, and got in, not knowing what was going on inside.

Behind the secret door, there is a long and narrow corridor, but it is surrounded by stone walls.

The little carpenter is not very old, and his body is weak, and it is not very difficult to move forward in such a narrow tunnel.

He didn't know what was going on in the stone room behind him, and he didn't know what was going on in front of him, after all, the iron lamp in his hand earlier had also been extinguished, so he had to crawl forward at the moment.

After climbing more than 20 meters like this, the front suddenly became empty, and fresh air rushed in my face.

The little carpenter, not knowing what was going on in the darkness, grabbed a stone with his right hand and threw it forward, and when he heard it fall to the ground, he listened attentively, and felt that he had come to a stone chamber again.

He leaned out and was about to climb out, but at that moment, his right foot was suddenly grabbed by a large hand.

The little carpenter was so frightened that he couldn't help but cry out loudly.

After a few seconds, he heard a voice coming from the tunnel behind him: "What are you shouting, I'm Nima, it's me." ”

This voice is forced.

It turned out that when everyone was panicking, the tiger had been staring at the little carpenter, and as soon as he made a move, others didn't see it, but the tiger found out for the first time, and he followed.

The unknown darkness is the most frightening, so this tiger is not so scary.

The little carpenter breathed a sigh of relief, and then said, "You let me go." ”

The tiger snorted and said, "I'll tell you, don't do anything bad, I've been staring at you, you dare to move a little bit, I'm Nima, I can rip off your anorectum, and then go around your neck and strangle you to death, do you believe it or not?" ”

The dark and underground claustrophobic environment has brought great psychological pressure to people, and because of this, the fierce tiger is not so terrifying.

The little carpenter was not afraid, though he heard the threat.

After all, this guy is here, and if something happens, he might be able to help.

He said: "What tricks can I play, it's just to run for my life - this is the secret passage left by our ancestors, and there is a stone room in front of it, let's go down and see what the situation is." ”

Tiger probably thought that the little carpenter couldn't escape from his palm, so he just warned him, and then let him go.

The two of them climbed out of the stone chamber one after another, and just as they stood still, another person crawled over.

That person was Zhang Qiming.

The three of them stood in the middle of the field, and the little carpenter re-lit the oil lamp, and looked around, and found that the space here was much narrower, and the small room was full of many things, including iron tools, rotten wood tools, and ropes, and so on.

These things made the three of them seem a little cramped in the middle of it.

Zhang Qiming didn't talk about what happened over there, but carefully checked these objects that he didn't know how many years he had placed, and then said with some excitement: "This is the hiding place of my predecessor in Luban back then." ”

Subsequently, he found a relatively fresh handprint on one of the wooden boxes.

Zhang Qiming looked at it, raised his head, and said to the little carpenter, "Your master has been here." ”

The mudra was four fingers, and the little carpenter's master, Lu Da, had only four fingers on his left hand.

The little carpenter's breath was a little short, but he didn't say anything.

Zhang Qiming continued to rummage and found the mechanism behind a broken stone statue, and at this time, from the tunnel, Yu Xiaozi's voice came: "Mr. Zhang, Mr. Zhang, are you inside?" ”

Obviously, in the chaos, the people of Longwu Village finally found the secret door and followed.

Zhang Qiming did not answer, but twisted the mechanism, and on the wall behind the stone statue, a secret door appeared, Zhang Qiming pointed to the little carpenter, and said expressionlessly: "Go, go in." ”

The little carpenter did not dare to disobey his orders, and walked forward, and when he walked into a narrow corridor for several meters, he heard a "click" sound behind him.

He turned around and saw that Hu Qi and Zhang Qiming had followed, but the secret door was closed.

Obviously, Zhang Qiming was not ready to take the gang of people from Longwu Village with him.

He was ready to play on his own.

"Let's go!"

Tiger pressed a sharp knife against the little carpenter's vest and told him to keep walking.

Fierce or he is fierce.

The little carpenter can only go forward, this is a rather tortuous and narrow road, twists and turns, high and low, some places can only be crawled forward, little by little, some places can be half-squatted forward, about a quarter of an hour later, the front of the eyes suddenly became empty.

Not only that, but it also has a warm yellow glow.

Under such an oppressive underground, the light seemed so exciting, and the little carpenter crawled out of the tunnel like a mouse, and looked around, ignoring the appearance of the dirty face, and found that it was actually a naturally formed cave, and it was more spacious than the previous stone chamber.

Not only that, but the cave has also been remodeled, and the stalagmites inside have been broken, leaving only a few spacious stone tables.

And on the wall, there hung an oil lamp, the wick burning quietly, emitting a warm yellow glow, and a faint aroma like animal fat.

One, two, three, four, five, six, seven......

A total of seven lights, which fell in different places.

The little carpenter counted them, and then he found that under each lamp, there was a door half a man high.

The door was made of stone, embedded deep in the mountain wall, with only a few gaps left to see what it looked like.

Later, he discovered that there were not only oil lamps and the door underneath, but also piles of bones.

Some of those white bones can be seen as a person, and some are scattered in a heap, and they do not form a shape.

Seeing this, Zhang Qiming's face showed a bit of fanaticism, he didn't care about the little carpenter and the tiger next to him, walked forward quickly, looked at the lamp, looked at the door, and then looked at the white bones, rummaged through the relics in the pile of white bones, and went to look at the reliefs and murals on the walls, and finally couldn't help laughing out loud.

Seeing his master's fanatical appearance, Hu Qi couldn't help but ask, "Master, what's wrong with you?" ”

Zhang Qiming was originally a serious, unsmiling gloomy old man, but at this moment there was an irrepressible smile on his face, his eyebrows and eyes were stretched a lot, he said excitedly: "'The Luban Temple is hidden in the deep mountains, and the sect is destroyed before it can see the sky again', the rumors are true, really, the legend contains countless Luban secret books, and the Luban Temple with the books of the predecessors is true, if I can open here, my Luban Sect will definitely be able to see the light again, maybe I can restore the glory of the past......"

Hu Qi understood at this time, and he was also a little excited: "In other words, the tomb of King Miao is just a gimmick, and this is the real place to go?" ”

Zhang Qiming rubbed his hands and said excitedly: "Of course. ”

He pointed to the oil lamp on the mountain wall and said proudly, "Look at that, do you know what kind of oil is burning in that oil lamp?" ”

Hearing this question, the little carpenter reacted - I don't know how long this place has been built, and it has not been visited for many years.

This oil must be extraordinary.

The tiger naturally didn't know, and Zhang Qiming said proudly: "This oil, called shark oil, is made from subcutaneous fat after hunting the shark people in the East China Sea, this shark people stay in the cold sea water all year round, so that the fat is extremely difficult to cultivate, extremely precious, and once refined into oil, a small pot can burn for hundreds of years - it is because of this characteristic that the shark oil is extremely sought-after, especially the temple and tomb, but also make the Southern Song Dynasty There are still historical records of the shark people, and now they are extinct, so it is normal for you not to know." ”

After that, he estimated it and said, "It is difficult to refine the merman oil, and the oil of these seven lamps is estimated to kill two hundred people." ”

Then, he pointed to the seven doors and said: "These seven doors correspond to the seven stars of Tianshu, Tianxuan, Tianji, Tianquan, Yuheng, Kaiyang, and Yaoguang in the Beidou......

Hu Qi is good at force, these crepe things, he was confused when he heard them, and couldn't help asking: "Then Master, where should we go?" ”

Zhang Qiming listened, and his smile gradually disappeared.

After a while, he said faintly: "I am the smartest among the senior brothers, I will learn what I will learn, draw inferences from others, and I am the smartest, but in the end, the master is unwilling to pass on what I pressed at the bottom of the box, so where can I know where to go?" But ......"

He turned his head to look at the little carpenter, tried to squeeze out a smile, and said to the little carpenter, "I think you should know, right?" ”
