Chapter 761: The Worries of Cultural Relics Conservationists
After jumping down the vertical ladder and landing to the end, Yun Ting was already ready in his heart. If there is such a job in the future, he will definitely find Hu Bayi and the three of them again to help him dig, he looked ahead, and he didn't know how they dug out such an underground passage that could not be seen in the past.
All in all, strong is one word.
The passage dug in the ground is the one that can accommodate two adults to walk freely, and can also allow a small car to move in the passage. The height is more than two meters high, which is enough to be tall, and there is no problem of having to be short to walk. For the underground passage, this is already very large, and it can almost be said that it can be completed by a large team.
On both sides, there are still torches stuck diagonally on the earthen wall, and the firelight is reflected, illuminating a bright area in this originally dark underground world. It's sometimes dark and sometimes bright, but you can't ask for too much in this kind of terrain.
Yun Ting continued to walk forward, and as he went deeper and deeper, the oncoming wind also carried a hint of moisture. It must be the wind brought in by the underground water source that gives rise to the moisture and the cold breath.
Wood also began to appear on both sides, standing, supporting the rocks above it so that it would not collapse. It can be seen that this is actually to avoid unnecessary accidents and collapse in the passage.
The places where these logs stand are separated, and the wood that supports them only appears at regular intervals.
Inside the underground passage, once there is a collapse in one place, even if it is small, there will be a chain reaction, and the entire passage will collapse at that time. The advantage of doing this is undoubtedly that when this kind of accident comes, it can avoid the kind of total collapse, and if it cannot be avoided, it can also leave time for people to escape when the collapse comes completely.
Yun Ting quickened his pace, he had already seen the craftsmanship of Hu Bayi and the others, and his grasp of the success of this matter became very large. He had seen the three of them rob the tomb at the beginning, and now he was looking at the method of digging underground passages like miners, and he had to admit that some professions were still inherently continuous.
As long as a tomb robber does not dig a tomb, then he may become a qualified miner, and as long as a miner digs a tomb, then he will naturally become a tomb robber.
For them, as long as the land is not covered with stones and has rock formations, then it must be able to be dug up.
"Here we are." Yun Ting walked out of the passage, and as soon as he stepped out of the passage, he immediately opened up in front of him.
In his ears, the sound of the water echoed, and by the faint light of the fire, a river was flowing not far in front of him. Looking at the end, there is no end in sight, only the deep darkness, but it makes people judge that this underground river flows long enough.
Walking along the place where there are torches, I don't know how far away it is from the place where Hu Bayi and the others are working, at least in Yun Ting's memory, the distance he walked out of is already five or six hundred meters. First down the shaft, then out of the passage, and now that we are here, we have walked far enough.
Looking at this river flowing forward now, Yun Ting knew that there was still a long way to go, at least from here to reach the palace, and there was no two or three miles that could not be reached at all. It's just that even if you dig under the palace, it's very difficult to go up.
However, before I met Hu Bayi, it was useless to think that these were all useless, and professional things should be left to professional people. Yun Ting had no choice but to put down the uncertainty in his heart and continue to walk forward.
"Whew." Hu Bayi let out a breath, looked at the narrower terrain in front of him, and stopped to wipe the beads of sweat from his forehead.
Next to him, Sheli Yang was also sweating profusely, in this case, don't say anything about fragrant sweat, it is the right choice to ask how smelly the sweat is.
The underground is damp and shady, and with the presence of wind brought in by the groundwater, it does not make people feel any heat. The main problem is that they are exercising, strenuous physical activity, and a lot of the heat generated by the exercise, with the capillary pores being discharged, brings out the moisture in the body. It's not some shady ground to get rid of, and if you don't move, or if you don't exercise so vigorously, you won't have anything, but they're digging a hole.
"The distance should be about the same," Hu Bayi asked.
Relic Yang next to him stopped what he was doing, glanced at Hu Bayi, and said uncertainly: "It should be about the same." ”
Without any indication underground, it is difficult to determine how far you are going underground, and it can be a problem if you don't even pay attention to the direction. Because in the underground, people have no reference, and if there is no reference, it is easy to lose their way.
However, this is not a problem for Hu Bayi and Relic Yang, both of them have compasses for tomb robbing, and if necessary, take a look at the pointer on the compass and adjust the direction in time.
To tell the truth, there is a lot of uncertainty in the hearts of both of them now. Tomb robbery couldn't be easier, digging in, going back down the hole, or digging a new hole to get out. Even if they encounter zongzi, they can beat it, and if they can't run away, in short, they have a hundred ways to see the light of day.
But it's a palace, it's not a tomb, it's full of people, and it's not a stupid dumpling that acts according to instinct. Zongzi are generally alone, and they will not be called people, but will only follow the breath of people to catch up, all in all, they have only one word to describe, stupid.
Human beings are different, human beings are in the same situation, calling friends, and the habit of everyone coming together is full of various daily behavior habits. What's that? Haven't I been taught since childhood, one chopstick is easy to break, and when more than a dozen chopsticks are put together, it is not easy to break.
There is great strength in numbers, brothers are united, and their profits are gold, and this is the truth. If they dig into the palace, dig in the wrong place, and let others discover their whereabouts, then it will definitely be GG.
Therefore, Hu Bayi and Relic Yang didn't dare to dig indiscriminately, and even Wang Fatzi, who has always been not afraid of heaven and earth, would be afraid when he thought of this time, how difficult do you say this matter should be? It was a palace, heavily guarded, and many players wanted to go in to see the palace, but they couldn't get in, and instead they were caught up outside the palace in a tragic state!
Hu Bayi and Sheli Yang also go to the forum when they are bored, looking for clues that are useful to them from Juntao. Some large tombs, many times, will be revealed in the daily chats and nonsense of players, and at that time, you just need to follow the clues to find them.
There are also aborigines, there are some wild history legends among the aborigines, local oral stories, many of which are traced back to the roots, and after peeling off the cocoon, they often indicate the whereabouts of some tombs.
As a tomb robber, you must have cultural edification, not to mention that Hu Bayi, Sheli Yang and Wang Fatzi are not ordinary people. In reality, they are also graduates of cultural relics protection, and Sheliyang is still a postdoctoral fellow, and they are all cultural people.
Originally, they also wanted to find an opportunity to enter the imperial palace of the Eastern Han Dynasty to feel the influence of art and culture, and contribute to their cultural relics protection profession. But after watching a video uploaded by a player, in which a bunch of people died in the palace, they didn't have this idea.
The edification of culture and art, no matter how edified, there is no way to be invulnerable! If you look at the players who have died in a bunch of them, they know that if it were them, it would be the same fate.
After all, all their means are to deal with the dead. It's okay to be a bunch of dead people, but if it's a living army, it's absolutely not good.
It turned out that Wang Fatzi was clamoring to go to the tombs of the emperors of the past dynasties to take a look at them, and take good care of their underground property for those emperors, Hu Bayi was a little moved. But after this kind of appearance, no one mentions this stubble anymore, because the tombs of the emperors of the Han Dynasty are basically buried together. Not only are they buried together, but there is also a special army to protect the tombs, and it is those tomb robbers who deal with them.
Although Hu Bayi thinks that they are not tomb robbers and cultural relics protection workers, the aborigines don't know! If you are accidentally discovered, a single dumpling will become a dead dumpling, let alone them!
The danger of digging into the palace is definitely higher than the danger of digging up the emperor's tomb. After all, the latter can also take advantage of the night to do it secretly, and the former may be caught day or night.
It's okay to say underground, but on the ground, they're just ordinary people who are a little better than ordinary people. There may be a possibility of escaping back underground, but the problem is, I don't know if there is a possibility of going back underground.
Think about that kind of scene, when you suddenly dig up, and you see the sunlight that fills your eyes, making you feel the beauty of light. But when you look around and see a group of palace guards surrounding you, with all your weapons raised, you'd rather go back into the darkness.
Hu Bayi is facing such a choice, there is very likely to be only one chance, and there is a second and third time if you are lucky, but every time your luck cannot be so good. As long as they are discovered, they will succeed in escaping, but this passage will inevitably be discovered, and it will no longer be used.
This is what they have worked hard for a month, day and night, and do it again? It's okay to do it again, but the question is, is there any other chance?
As long as you are discovered, if you want to do it again, there is no basic chance.
