Chapter Eighty-Eight: The Road of Sacrifice (I)

"Are there any other passages here?"

Jin Wuming frowned, listening to Zhao Yang's words, he was not so excited and excited this time, but frowned with deep doubts, as if he thought that Zhao Yang was trying to give him hope, so he deliberately fooled him.

"Brother Zhao, how can you be so sure that there are other passages here?"

Jin Wuming looked at Zhao Yang again and asked.

Zhao Yang's wise eyes were a little confident, and he said: "Since this Huangquan Emperor's Tomb is a coffin placed in the form of a gossip pattern, it must be interconnected.

Then again, from the point of view of construction, this Huangquan Emperor's Tomb was originally a whole, and it is impossible to dig here and then turn around and go back, and reopen a hole from somewhere else, right? ”

As soon as he heard Zhao Yang explain this, Jin Wuming really felt that it made some sense, so he raised his head a little excitedly, looked at Zhao Yang and asked: "Brother Zhao, what is your head, it really makes some sense when you say this, so where should the other channels be?" ”

"It should be in the West!"

Zhao Yang took out the compass and looked at the due west of the compass, in the gossip, the due west belongs to 'away'

Bit.

"We have gone through four directions along the way, the front is a dead end, the back is a retreat, the right is due east is also the place we passed, if there are really other passages, it is impossible to go back, so it is only possible to be due west!"

Regarding this point, Zhao Yang is more certain and firm!

"Brother Zhao, that ...... Can you figure out what coffins will be placed due west? ”

Jin Wuming followed up and asked, after all, even if he really found a passage to other places, if he encountered a big zongzi again, it would not be equivalent to sending him to death.

Regarding this point, Zhao Yang had already calculated in advance in his heart, and said with a serious expression: "If my guess is right, it should be the Ministry of Rites!" In ancient times, the Ministry of Rites was mainly in charge of sacrifices, deaths and funerals. ”

"The one in charge of the sacrifice? I heard that the ancients liked to sacrifice the living, so will they also treat us as sacrifices? ”

Jin Wuming's eyes widened, as if he was a curious baby.

Zhao Yang shrugged his shoulders and smiled: "Then it depends on whether our eight characters are hard enough!" Generally, those who are pulled away as sacrifices are people who are weaker in the eight characters, and if our eight characters are hard enough, maybe they can kill the other party! ”

Zhao Yang's words sound like a joke, in fact, what he said is the truth, the ancient sacrifice of living people is not as simple as casually pulling one out to sacrifice, the most important thing is to count the eight characters first, the eight characters match the most suitable, the eight characters are weaker can also be used as sacrifices, but if the eight characters are hard, they cannot be used as sacrifices, because there is such a sentence 'As long as you are hard enough, the king of Hades is afraid of you', the people that the king of Hades is afraid of, even if you take the initiative to sacrifice, which way of the demons and monsters dare to accept it?

But at this time, talking to Jin Wuming about this is all nonsense.

The main thing at the moment is to find the passage first.

Since you are sure that the passage is due west, you just need to grope carefully along the mountain wall on the left-hand side to find it.

If there is a passage, even if it is blocked, no matter how skilled the ancients are in construction, it will inevitably leave some traces.

Under the orders of Zhao Yang and Jin Wuming, everyone held a lit candle in one hand and pressed it against the mountain wall on the left hand side as much as possible, and used the candle flame to reflect the mountain wall and groped forward a little bit.

Because there are many iron cages placed next to them, and these cages are fixed, it is impossible for the cages to block the passage, so the search area is narrowed a lot.

In order not to let go of every place, Zhao Yang used his probe claw to deeply embed it in the rammed earth of the mountain wall, and walked forward while paddling.

呲呲呲......

The Claw made several two-centimeter-deep marks on the mountain wall, and the dirt fell to the ground along the claw's marks.

Keng ......

Just after a length of less than ten meters, suddenly the probing claw made a 'clanging' sound, as if it was scratched on a hard iron plate.

Zhao Yang also felt the obvious abnormality, and his heart was suddenly overjoyed, this simple method really worked!

"Brother Zhao, what did you get?"

Because this voice was very abrupt and obvious, Jin Wuming next to him also heard it for the first time, and looked at it with his ears pricked up and his eyes wide.

Zhao Yang didn't speak, and immediately used his probe claw to slash a few more times on the rammed earth mountain wall in the distance.

Under Zhao Yang's force, the sound of the sharp probe claw rubbing against the mountain wall was extremely harsh.

After a large piece of rammed earth surface was scratched off, a bronze plate suddenly appeared in Zhao Yang's eyes!

This bronze plate does not have any rust spots in the sealing of rammed earth, and you can clearly see the pattern engraved on the bronze plate, but because it is only a part, you can't see what the seal is engraved on it.

"Dig!"

Zhao Yang suppressed the excitement in his heart, and said a word to Jin Wuming and his subordinates pretending to be calm and calm.

What is the saying? People don't talk much, just take the guy and do it!

Under Zhao Yang's order, several of Jin Wuming's subordinates took tools and began to scrape the rammed earth seal on the surface along the perimeter of the bronze plate.

It didn't take long for a huge bronze plate to appear in front of Zhao Yang's eyes, and the black soil on it was completely cleaned.

Zhao Yang subconsciously dilated his pupils and looked carefully at the bronze plate in front of his face.

The bronze plate is about three meters high and two meters wide. Because it is inlaid on the mountain wall, it is a bronze door nine times out of ten, otherwise it is impossible to make such a huge bronze plate embedded in the mountain wall for no reason, and seal it with rammed earth, right?

There must be a passage behind this bronze door!

But Zhao Yang's attention at this time was completely attracted by the pattern engraved on the bronze door.

I saw a huge hydra carved on this bronze door!

"Saw the familiar hydra again!"

Zhao Yang took a deep breath, and this was the most clearly seen Hydra mural, including the appearance of the Hydra and all the details were clearly displayed on the mural.
