Chapter 47: The Most Perfect Cave Thief (Part II)

The centipede hanging ladder is one of the necessary tools for tomb robbery, the prototype is the Han Dynasty Red Mei Army siege tool, the main body is a bamboo pole, there are buckles on both sides, longitudinally connected when used, the bamboo slips inserted on both sides for stepping on, the top is equipped with hanging mountain hundred claws, the biggest advantage is that it can be divided, not restricted by any terrain, you can enter all the twists and turns of the narrow tomb, and the split parts can also be used as self-defense tools.

After reaching the top of the tomb door with the help of the centipede ladder, Zhao Yang first tied a safety rope to his body with a rope, and then carefully inspected it.

The sealing of this bluestone tomb door is very dense, tightly linked to the mountain, and even the outermost layer is poured with a layer of molten iron to protect it.

No matter how you look at it, this imperial tomb has achieved the ultimate in 'anti-theft', the intimidation of the evil death curse, the confusion of the burial tomb on the ground, and the mercury pouring the tomb door......

But for Zhao Yang, the more mysterious it is, the more it stimulates Zhao Yang's interest in this imperial tomb.

Pouring molten iron and sealing the door is also a trivial matter for Zhao Yang.

Zhao Yang first used a Luoyang shovel to poke out some soil samples from the top of the tomb door and observed them.

The soil sample that came out of the first shovel is very normal, not sealed soil or rammed earth, which indicates that the position is wrong!

Zhao Yang moved ten centimeters to the side position, continued to fight carefully, and then took out some soil samples, which were still neither sealed nor rammed, and the position was not right!

Zhao Yang continued to move another ten centimeters to the side, and got off the Luoyang shovel for the third time.

And this time, the soil sample taken out by the Luoyang shovel made Zhao Yang's face happy, this is exactly the five-flower soil that Zhao Yang is looking for, and it also has obvious black!

The so-called five-flower soil is a term in the industry, which means that when digging the pit tomb, the raw soil and cooked soil of different colors in the pit will be dug out, and then the soil of different colors will be stirred twice after burial for backfilling, because these raw soil and cooked soil will not be combined even if they are old, so it becomes the so-called 'five-flower soil', and the black is caused by the high mercury content of mercury.

What can this five-flower soil mean? It shows that this piece has been backfilled twice.

The second backfill must be the irrigation mouth that poured mercury behind the tomb door, and it is also the location that Zhao Yang is looking for!

Zhao Yang continued to carefully use the Luoyang shovel to hit down, and the deeper he hit down, the darker the soil color of the Wuhua soil, which showed that the hydrogenation of mercury was more serious, and it was getting closer and closer to mercury.

When it was almost sixty or seventy centimeters down, the touch from the Luoyang shovel in Zhao Yang's hand obviously became different, and the soil became much softer.

And the soil samples brought out by the Luoyang shovel this time are all pitch black, and mixed with some silver-white liquid, this is mercury!

At the same time, a five-centimeter-wide thief hole knocked down by the Luoyang shovel also flowed out some mercury!

"Finally see the end!" Zhao Yang took a deep breath, once again decisively shoveled Luoyang down, and used all his strength to go inside.

The touch from the Luoyang shovel seemed to have pierced a layer of diaphragm in the thief cave, Zhao Yang had already understood the situation inside the thief cave in his heart, and immediately turned around and shouted at Jin Wusheng below: "Jin Dashuai, hurry up and let your people retreat to both sides, try to stay away!" ”

Jin Wuming also sensed that there was a situation in Zhao Yang's tone, and immediately ordered everyone to retreat to both sides.

After everyone withdrew to both sides, Zhao Yang violently pulled out the Luoyang shovel from the thief hole, and at the same time dragged the rope to dodge.

The moment the Luoyang shovel was pulled out of the robbery hole, it directly led to a stream of silver-white liquid erupting like a column of water.

This is exactly what mercury is!

Because of the heavy mass of mercury, it erupted very quickly under the squeeze of the sealed space, and a five-centimeter hole alone erupted outwards at a distance of nearly five meters, smashing down on the ground.

It is conceivable that if the entire tomb door collapses, even if the body is full of legs, it will be impossible to escape.

"Brother Zhao, do you want to clean up all the mercury behind the door of this tomb?"

Jin Wuming looked at the mercury erupting like a pillar below, and then looked at Zhao Yang who was hanging on the rope and asked.

Zhao Yang chuckled, this Jin Wulife's IQ is really high and low!

"You don't need to clean it all, as long as the mercury reaches this flat position, you can make a bigger and wider hole from here! Wait, this is about the highest level of mercury infusion. ”

Zhao Yang looked at the dense weeds above the tomb door again, and from this point he could deduce the highest position of mercury.

Sure enough, after waiting for about seven or eight minutes, the amount of mercury erupting gradually decreased until it stopped, which indicated that the highest position of mercury behind the tomb door was on par with the robbery hole made by Zhao Yang with a Luoyang shovel.

After the mercury stopped flowing out, Zhao Yang continued to act and began to use the Luoyang shovel to tamp and expand the mouth of the thief hole little by little.

In fact, the biggest technical content of the thief hole is to make a thief hole that can drill into people, without transporting a grain of soil out.

So where did the soil go? The soil is squeezed and compacted in place, so that it can not only not leave too obvious traces of tomb robbery outside, but also prevent the collapse of the robbery hole and avoid the embarrassment of digging the grave by yourself.

If you want to use a slender Luoyang shovel to tamp the thief hole, it really requires a lot of technical content!

Zhao Yang knew that it was all theory before, and now this is really the first time to practice.

About half an hour later, after Zhao Yang's unremitting efforts, with a Luoyang shovel alone, using the principle of extrusion and crowbar, he successfully completed a robbery hole the size of a manhole cover!

If you put a candle inside, you can see a sea of mercury inside, and there is darkness everywhere the candle does not shine!

"Brother Zhao, how is it? In fact, I have always been puzzled by one thing in my heart, you said that a large amount of mercury was poured behind the tomb door, what can you do if you release the mercury into a plane? Are we going to swim through this mercury? Although I have been good at water since I was a child, I have never tried to swim in mercury. ”

Swimming in mercury?

I can think of this when I lose money and have no life, although mercury is a liquid, but swimming in mercury, this joke is a bit cold.

"Jin Dashuai, don't worry, I won't let you swim in the mercury!"

Zhao Yang hung the rope and stretched the centipede ladder into the thief hole little by little.

When he reached into it about ten meters, he suddenly touched a hard object, and Zhao Yang tilted the centipede hanging ladder slightly upward, and sure enough, everything was as Zhao Yang expected, and the hundred claws at the front end of the centipede hanging ladder hooked on the hard object.

It must have been a baffle, a baffle to prevent mercury from pouring into the burial chamber! And the height of the baffle is higher than the mercury level, so Zhao Yang will tilt the centipede hanging ladder upward!

"That's it!"

After the centipede hanging ladder was fixed in the robbery cave, Zhao Yang breathed a sigh of relief.

All the problems did not stump Lao Tzu!

"This is the most perfect thief hole!"

Zhao Yang couldn't help but feel proud of his masterpiece.

Punch a perfect robbery hole, which is the goal of every grave robber!

And a perfect robbery cave is also the representative and consideration of the ability and strength of the tomb robber!
