Chapter 125: Entering the Tomb of the Great Ancestor

When I got up the next morning, I remembered to tell Xiao Shirong: "Hey, someone took us into the tomb of Gaozu today, you are ready to prepare."

"What? How could they let us in? He jumped out of bed, and I had never seen him so shocked.

"Although they are guarding the mausoleum, I told them that the ovary gave us the map, and they won't stop it."

"Oh...... Is it? ”

"What, what's wrong?"

"No, I thought you had a lot of face."

I gave him a blank look, and didn't bother to say anything more.

I washed up a little, and then took Xiao Shirong's men to the place yesterday for breakfast, after two days of contact, I don't know if they found that I was much easier to get along with than their boss, and many people were polite to me. Ma Daoren was already waiting for me there, and today he changed his outfit from yesterday, and still wore back to his old appearance, to be honest, it still made me feel familiar and friendly.

When he saw me coming, he called me over. After I sat down, I looked at Ma Daoren while eating, but I didn't know what to say, maybe the thoughts of last night made me feel that something was wrong. It was him, looking at me with a smile on his face.

"You have to be mentally prepared to go there, because none of us know anything about it, no one has ever been inside, and the mausoleum has been closed since it was built."

"Well, don't worry, I've been ready for it since I decided to do it."

"Good. I can't help you this time, you can only rely on your friends. Why didn't he come again? ”

"Don't worry about him, he may not be able to save face, and he will nibble on the cake himself."

"Haha, if that's the case, he's a little cute." Ma Daoren smiled and suddenly said, "Senior brother, let me ask you a question."

"What's wrong?"

"If you have the opportunity in the future, you can save a lot of people, very, very many people, but you may lose a lot of people and things that are important to you because of doing this, what will you choose?"

I was stunned by this cold question, but Ma Daoren looked at me with a pair of extremely sincere and eager eyes. I can vaguely feel that his question has a lot to do with his position and the success of my trip.

"I ......" I thought about it, but I still couldn't say the answer.

"Haha, it's okay, you can think about this question slowly. I just hope that you, despite all the misfortunes you have suffered, will always be kind and fair to do the right thing. ”

"Okay, I remember."

"Okay. Let's eat it, and we'll be ready to go. ”

The Ma Dao people had already arranged for someone to get all the carriages that we had fallen in the snow yesterday, Xiao Shirong's men took out their respective tools from them, and the Ma Dao people let them bring enough supplies, so I called Xiao Shirong to set off.

Ma Daoren led me to the front, Xiao Shirong and his subordinates followed, and at the back of the team were Ma Daoren's "big brother", Tianyang Sword and Diyin Knife. Except for me occasionally talking to Ma Daoren, Xiao Shirong's team did not make the slightest sound, and the latter three were even more so. In this way, although there were many of us, we walked out of the village almost silently.

After walking a short distance, we came to a cliff not far from the village, four or five stories high. Ma Daoren stepped forward, glanced at the cliff wall a few times, and with a wave of dust, it seemed that an invisible force swept past, and the snow on the cliff wall was mixed with dust and scattered into the wind.

Slowly, after the snowflakes and dirt dust gradually drifted away, a huge stone door appeared in front of us. This stone gate occupies most of the cliff, the height should not be less than ten meters, the slightly abstract but magnificent dragon-shaped relief on the stone gate shows that this is undoubtedly a Han Dynasty imperial mausoleum.

I said in my heart that this should be the entrance to Gaozu's tomb, is Tai'a Jian really in it? This kind of place can be entered through the tomb gate, but it can save a lot of unnecessary trouble.

Ma Daoren turned back to the back and said, "Big brother, I'm sorry for you!"

I looked back, only to see that the old Taoist priest still had no superfluous expression on his face, but when he heard this, he waved the dust, closed his eyes slightly, and began to pinch the mantra. Suddenly, there was a loud bang in the direction of the stone gate, and then the roar of the boulder rubbing against the ground was accompanied by a violent vibration like an earthquake.

I looked back at the stone doors, which were slowly opening to both sides, and the ground was dusty, calling at me like a sandstorm. I hurriedly took two steps back, covered my nose, and turned my head back.

However, after a moment, I did not feel the dust on me, and when I opened my eyes, I saw the ash of more than a man scattered in both directions beside me, like the ripples of a ship sailing in calm water.

I looked at Ma Daoren, and sure enough, it was him, and he was smiling at me. I put my hand down and continued to watch the thrilling scene with peace of mind.

As the stone door opened, wisps of sunlight shone through large and small gaps, but because there was too much dust, everyone still couldn't see inside.

I've been guessing about this in two ways. First, the location is unknown, but the internal structure of the mausoleum should still be like the emperors of the Western Han Dynasty, honestly digging a tomb road in the east, west, north and south of the main tomb, and adding a cluster of burial pits and burial pits around it. The second is that the ovary has also done something to the structure of the tomb, and has built a unique tomb that has never been seen before or since.

If this stone door is the only entrance, then the first assumption can be basically negated. When the gap between the two stone doors is two or three meters wide, it will not move. Slowly, "the dust settled", and there was nothing inside the tomb door except a road. It seems that this place is really not small.

Ma Daoren said to me, "All right, without further ado, you go in, be careful yourself."

I nodded, and looked at the three of them again, their eyes were facing each other, and they all seemed to be preoccupied. It was inconvenient to ask more, so I asked Xiao Shirong to go inside together.

"I have to say, your plan is good." When Xiao Shirong walked past Ma Daoren, Ma Daoren said coldly, although I was walking in front at this time, a few steps away from the two, but I still heard clearly.

"Your plan is good, too." Xiao Shirong immediately replied. I didn't hear the two of them say anything later.

The question came back to my mind. This should be the first time Ma Daoren has spoken to Xiao Shirong, right? The two should have never met before. The first time it was so sharp? His understanding of Xiao Shirong should be completely from my mouth. What are Siu Sai Wing's plans? I just told him that he joined forces with me to find the elixir of life, and although this plan was beneficial to the two of us, the "good" in Ma Dao's mouth must have other meanings.

I thought about it, he wasn't a stupid person, and the reason why he said this at this time and deliberately let me hear it must have wanted me to know something. For a moment, I remembered that I was in D City at the time, and that person kept me away from the person surnamed Xiao, and I only knew Xiao Fang at that time, so I didn't take it seriously. Now, could it be that the man is talking about him?

Thinking about it, I felt so stupid that I had come so far that I didn't know who to trust now.

But there is no turning back from the bow, and it is impossible not to go in. I took the lead and tried to concentrate on what was in front of me.

My previous experience made me worry that there would be some kind of maintenance mechanism waiting for us in this tomb. Although I am not like Siu Shirong and his men, who rely on oil lamps to be alert to danger in the dark, I know that threats are often invisible.

But when I walked into a little bit, I was a little relieved. Here, it is a bit similar to the cave of the previous ovary tomb, and there are almost no traces of artificial processing, which is very natural, could it be that this is a burial chamber transformed from a natural cave?

And after entering the stone gate, there is only one road in front of us, so we don't have to worry about getting lost at all. Among Xiao Shirong's subordinates, some of them have a good attitude towards me these days, and they took a guy and gave it to me. When I looked closely, I saw that it was a stick composed of two short iron rods, nearly sixty centimeters, and a small shovel was added to one end.

"Thanks, buddy." I said. People may be like this, with such a thing in their hands, compared with their bare hands, they feel that their combat effectiveness has changed qualitatively, and their courage will become greater.

Not to mention, these tools under Xiao Shirong are really flexible, an iron rod, freely combined into a shovel, hammer, Luoyang shovel, greatly reducing the area occupied by the tools. But it makes me think even more that they are professional tomb robbers.

Of course, to prove this, the answer will be more obvious further along. Because this kind of tomb must be indispensable for treasures, and many of them should be rare treasures, if they are tomb robbers, it is impossible not to let their eyes light when they see those things, and it is estimated that as long as Xiao Shirong allows it, they will pounce.

After walking for a while, we had already come to a place far enough away from the stone gate that we couldn't see the light from the stone gate at all, so I asked Xiao Shirong with great trust: "What plan are you two talking about?" I always felt like he was hiding something from me. ”

"How do I know that I can't honor him in return for what he said." Xiao Shirong didn't even turn his head to me, and said casually. I said in my heart that you are also excellent in acting.

"You really don't know his plan?"

"And you know what?" He still said it very casually.

Such a perfunctory answer...... I even felt that it would not be so simple, and that he must be deliberately hiding something from me. But at the same time, I also know that it is useless to ask, so it is better not to ask. These two people should both know something about each other's implicit motives, but neither of them wants to tell me.

And here, for Xiao Shirong's unclear thoughts, I can only be careful myself.
