Tomb robbing is a technical job, which not only requires a lot of historical knowledge, but also needs to understand feng shui and tombs.

The most important thing is to have a good ability, otherwise there is a life to enter, and there is no life to come out.

All kinds of rumors about the ancient tombs, just listening to them, can scare off many heroes, not to mention going to the tomb in person.

Whether there is such a thing as a zombie, I don't know. I have been to Xiangxi with my uncle before, and I have seen Xiangxi chasing corpses, but it is not a demon or a monster, it is all done by manpower.

Interlaced like a mountain, a row of doorways, outsiders do not understand, see it with false rumors, and finally become a ghost.

It's like saltpeter can be used to make ice, and people who don't understand it will think you're doing magic when they see it.

These are the concepts that my grandfather taught me to understand the world, and there must be a reasonable explanation.

The existence of Jinling City is also, maybe there are really many worlds, and we are just in one of them.

Therefore, ghosts and zombies may be like monsters, things from another world, or they may be due to other reasons that cause human beings to hallucinate, and it is clear who is true and false.

Niu Meng and I sorted out all the things that should be prepared, and waited for Tang Jinghong in the main hall for more than an hour before she came out.

I muttered to myself that a woman's bathing is trouble.

Tang Jinghong changed into a long black dress, but nothing else changed, he still had a straight face, looking cold.

She held a sword in her hand and looked at me and Niu Meng, "When you're ready, let's go." ”

I nodded in response to her, "Well, it's almost time, and it's almost time for us to arrive at Cheng's Mansion." ”

So the three of us went out to Chengfu.

It is said that a curfew will start tomorrow night, and many shops will close early tonight.

The originally bustling streets were much deserted, and there were many fewer lights.

After a few streets, the surroundings were completely darkened. Fortunately, there is moonlight, so you can't see anything.

Tang Jinghong walked in front, Niu Meng and I followed behind her, and no one spoke along the way, very dull.

I found a detail, Tang Jinghong has a shadow, and her figure is stretched long in the moonlight. I've heard before,Youkai have no shadow.,It seems to be pure fabrication.。

"Brother Jiu, let's talk for a while." Niu Meng suddenly called me, I guess he couldn't hold it back.

He likes to make noise, he doesn't like to be quiet, if the two of them are together, he will feel panicked if he doesn't speak.

"Say what." I'll reply to him.

"Aren't we going to rob the tomb? Tell me, which dynasty is this tomb, what are the things in the tomb, will there be zongzi? ”

"It's not there yet, how do I know?"

"Doesn't it mean that in a place like the ancient tomb, women can't go down, the yin qi is too heavy, and it will wake up the zongzi." As soon as Niu Meng finished speaking, Tang Jinghong turned his head and glared at us.

I coughed lightly, "Don't talk nonsense, it's nothing." Okay, let's talk about something else, let's talk about your Xiaocui. ”

In fact, Niu Meng is not talking nonsense, men are yang, and women are yin. Yang and Yin do work on certain occasions.

My grandfather called this aura, and there is an aura between heaven and earth. Sometimes people become very irritable in certain places and at certain times, uncomfortable and anxious.

It's that the body is disturbed by the aura around it, and the aura is also particular about sleeping.

For example, if the head faces east, or south, if the head faces south, the aura between heaven and earth is not smooth, and you can't sleep well.

There is naturally an aura in the ancient tomb, and as for the fact that a woman entering the ancient tomb will wake up the zongzi, there is indeed such a saying.

But Tang Jinghong and Yao ridiculed the two of them and they were not ordinary people, so there was basically no need to worry about this.

Speaking of Xiaocui, Niu Meng became interested and talked endlessly.

Although I have heard the story of him and Xiaocui countless times, I am embarrassed to interrupt him at this time.

He has a leaky mouth, and he doesn't have a door to speak, maybe he is saying something to offend Tang Jinghong, and it is inevitable that he will be beaten.

Tang Jinghong didn't look back, and walked all the way to take care of herself, and I don't know if she heard Niu Meng tell Xiaocui's story.

On the way, from time to time, I felt that something was passing by, and I couldn't see anything when I looked back and forth.

Now that I think about it, the foxes I saw before may not be hallucinations. Tang Jinghong turned out to be the young master of Jinling City, and it was normal for monsters to come to protect her.

Niu Meng probably felt bored, so he stopped talking for a while.

The three of us were silent all the way to Cheng's mansion.

At the entrance of Zhengyang Street, there is a dark shadow standing, I haven't been drinking at this time, and I can't see clearly at night.

But it is estimated that Yao is mocking, who comes here at night in the ordinary people's congress.

As soon as Tang Jinghong walked over with the two of us, he heard Yao's mocking voice, "I didn't expect you to really come?" ”

"What? Can't I come? ”

"Yes, I dare not let you come."

Although he couldn't see the faces of the two of them clearly, he spoke with a smell of gunpowder.

I didn't dare to say anything, for fear that I would say something wrong and be slapped again.

"Let's go in, I've sent someone to lay a net outside, and no one will disturb you." After Yao Xiaomei finished speaking, the four of us entered the Cheng Mansion.

When I came to the well in the side courtyard, there was no longer the terrifying atmosphere that I had come before.

Lanterns are lit in the precincts, and you can't smell anything other than the smell of earth.

Yao Yimei suddenly spoke, "I just got a tip report in the past two days, and someone saw someone coming out of Chengfu, using a cart to transport the soil to Yongquan Lake and dump it, presumably the person is still below." ”

I thought for a moment and replied, "This is the usual method of tomb robbers, and usually, the excavated soil will be disposed of in a very secret place. In this way, others don't know how deep they have dug.

Moreover, some connoisseurs can judge the dynasty of the tomb based on the excavated soil.

I think they should know we're coming. If there are people in the tomb, it is better to be careful. I'll go down and look for an entrance. ”

Yao Yimei nodded in agreement, and Tang Jinghong didn't say anything. I asked Niu Meng to help tie the rope around me and prepare to go down the well.

I looked down the well, it was pitch black, and I took out a wine gourd and drank a few sips.

Yao Xiaomei suddenly asked me, "Be brave?" ”

"No, I have to drink to see things at night."

"Oh...... It's much weaker than Nanya. ”

I pouted helplessly, Nan Ya is indeed much stronger than me, he doesn't have to do anything, he can see things directly at night.

After moving my bones briefly, I threw a stone into the well, and when I got to know the depth of the well, I began to climb down.

This well is old and is built of bluestone, and there is a depression in the wall of the well, so it is not difficult to climb.

Just keep an eye out for the moss on the walls of the well and watch out for slipping.

"Brother Jiu, it's okay." Niu Meng shouted from above.

"It's fine." I shouted back to him.

Before going down the mine, I told Niu Meng that if something happened, he would pull me up.

The further down I got, the more cold I felt, and the temperature was a little abnormal.

Although this well is not shallow, it should not be so cold in the summer.

I looked down, and the water reflected in the moonlight swayed slightly, and this time I didn't see the miserable white face I saw last time.

As he approached the water, his right foot kicked into the air.

I looked and saw that there was a passage near the surface of the well, and I slowly climbed down.

It is a bluestone masonry passage, almost one person high and four people wide, and the water is one step lower than the ground.

The passage looks old, and there are oil lamps on the walls at intervals.

A short distance away, the passage turns to the right, and it appears that there are steps leading downward.

"Come down, there's a secret passage." I shouted at the top.

After a while, the ox came down. I was ready to pick him up, and who knew he jumped straight into the water.

"Brother Jiu, this water is so cold." Niu Meng shuddered after speaking.

"It'll be colder if you soak a little longer." I lit the oil lamp on the wall and turned around to help the cow jerk up.

By this time he had already climbed up halfway, leaving only his right leg still in the water, when suddenly he fell backwards, plopped and fell into the water again.
