Chapter 052: Luxury House

When encountering the ancient tomb, Lao Zheng was an absolute expert, replacing Liu Shi at the forefront. Here is like a real house, enter it and see the shadow wall, there are reliefs on it, look carefully, it is two dragons coiled in it, a fist-sized bead in the middle, I don't know if it is the meaning of two dragons playing with pearls.

"Why doesn't this dragon have a beard, does it have any special symbolic meaning?" Liu Shi followed closely beside Lao Zheng and asked suspiciously, his eyes were firmly fixed on the shadow wall, the dragon on it was lifelike, and the expression was even more imposing, which showed that it was not an ordinary thing.

"This is not a dragon, it is a python, the dragon is a special symbol of the emperor, and some powerful ministers or relatives of the emperor wear python robes, which is a symbol of status and glory, and in the Qing Dynasty, python robes were relaxed, and ordinary people can also wear them, but the number is strictly controlled." Lao Zheng explained, while looking at the shadow wall up close, such a beautiful relief is rare to see, not inferior to the decoration in the Forbidden City.

No matter how beautiful the shadow wall is, it is not the time for archaeological research, so after watching it for a while, I bypassed the shadow wall and continued to move forward. In front of you, you can see the hall, which is equipped with tables and chairs, all of which are made of wood. At the door of the hall, there are still lanterns and various colored silk decorations, but it may have changed color after too much time, and it looks a little gray. There are rockeries outside the hall, and some bonsai have long withered, but the porcelain flower beds are very beautifully made, and they are all valuable things. No matter which point it is, it looks atmospheric, at first glance it is a rich family, Han Wei has an illusion, as if he has been here.

In order to prevent encountering the mechanism, the speed had to be slowed down, and Lao Zheng carefully observed the surroundings, stopping for a moment with each step. Came to the door of the hall very smoothly, and suddenly, Han Wei felt his right foot sinking, stopped abruptly, and hurriedly said to Lao Zheng: "Lao Zheng, I feel that my right foot stepped on something, and it sank a little, could it be a mechanism?" ”

Lao Zheng immediately moved the light to Han Wei's feet, and sure enough, the floor tile on Han Wei's right foot sank down about three centimeters, and he didn't hear any sound just now, it didn't seem like he had touched the mechanism, for the sake of safety, Lao Zheng, Li Hua, Liu Shi, and the girl all stepped back and hid directly behind the shadow wall. The girl didn't know the situation, she was forcibly taken away by Li Hua. Just now, Lao Zheng and Li Hua had already searched the vicinity, and there were no holes on the ground, even if there was a mechanism, it would not come out of the ground, what Han Wei had to do was to quickly roll aside when lifting his feet, so Li Hua left his coat to Han Wei, and deliberately wrapped his head.

Han Wei took a deep breath, slowly squatted down, and when he was about to touch the ground, he suddenly rolled towards the shadow wall. I saw a row of six sharp arrows flying in the hall, about a meter from the ground, if it wasn't for Han Wei on the ground, his body would definitely be penetrated. Because the sharp arrow hit the shadow wall, it actually shot a small hole, and the arrow still left the wall to swing.

"How's that, it's okay." Li Hua stepped forward to help Han Wei.

"It's okay, it's just that my knee was knocked out." Han Wei didn't suffer much damage, but looking at the sharp arrow that was still swinging, he thought in his heart that he was afraid for a while, if he was hit by a sharp arrow, he would be seriously injured if he didn't die. Han Wei had visited the tomb several times, and had encountered some mechanisms, but this was the first time he had tried it himself.

"Look here."

Liu Shi's voice came, and he looked in the direction of his finger, there were several small holes next to the sharp arrows, and the sharp arrows were pulled out, and the small holes were the same in size and shape, which showed that someone had come in and suffered the same mechanism. Upon closer inspection of the underside of the shadow wall, there were still some traces of blood, but they were obscured by dust and were difficult to spot. This is even more confirmation that someone has been here, who is it? Could it be someone in the factory? It stands to reason that the people in the factory will definitely find out here, and it is very likely that it is them, so where will the ghost in the other party's mouth be encountered? Still in front of the trap?

I wasn't sure if there was a mechanism in front of me, and the floor tiles that Han Wei stepped on just now had returned to their original appearance at this time, and everyone had to be more careful. A few meters away, it took five or six minutes to walk into the hall, and it took me to see clearly up close, the chairs on both sides were sandalwood, and I could smell bursts of sandalwood.

"It's all red sandalwood, what kind of person is it, so extravagant." Lao Zheng did not hide his surprise between his words, stroking the chair as if he were a lover.

For sandalwood, Han Wei also knows that it is more precious, but it is not enough to let the well-informed Lao Zheng look like this, and was about to ask, only to see Lao Zheng speak again: "In our country since ancient times, red sandalwood is one of the most precious wood, the Ming Dynasty when the southern wood was cut down, can only send people to Nanyang to purchase, due to the slow growth of red sandalwood, usually hundreds of years to become a material, the red sandalwood of the South Seas by the Ming Dynasty felling is also exhausted, to the Qing Dynasty once the supply of goods was interrupted, even the royal family is left, and when Yuan Shikai called the emperor, There are not a few intact rosewood trees in the whole city of Beijing. Looking at the period of this ancient tomb, it happened to be in the middle and late Qing Dynasty, and it was also a time when red sandalwood was very scarce, and it was extremely luxurious to be able to use so many red sandalwood furniture. ”

Rosewood has such value, no wonder Lao Zheng Du was surprised, who is the owner of this tomb? It's not something you can buy with money.

"It's impossible that the people in the factory in this place haven't come in, why don't you move these tables and chairs, according to Zheng Lao, a chair is worth at least 10 million, and you still need to fake it?" Li Hua raised the doubts in his heart, he has been following archaeology for a long time, and he also has a certain professional judgment on the value of antiquities.

Entered the hall so smoothly, it is impossible for the people in the mysterious factory not to enter, in the face of such a temptation of money, I believe that no one can resist, but now these things are still there, there must be a special reason, could it be related to ghosts? So far, I haven't encountered the ghosts in their mouths, is it just a threat?

With doubts in their minds, Han Wei and Li Hua carefully searched the hall, trying not to touch tables and chairs and other items that looked valuable, so as not to touch the mechanism. I searched back and forth a few times, but I didn't find anything special, and then I saw that Lao Zheng was still looking for it, but looking at that look, I shouldn't have found anything.

Han Wei looked at this hall, and that familiar feeling surged up again, but no matter how he thought about it, he couldn't remember when he had seen the same scene, you must know that except for the last few months, he had rarely even touched antiques before, how could he have come to such a luxurious place. Han Wei didn't know if Li Hua and the others had this feeling, but Li Hua happened to be by his side, so he hurriedly stepped forward and said, "Brother Hua, do you feel a familiar feeling here?" ”

Li Hua looked at Han Wei suspiciously, and said, "How can there be a familiar feeling?" Unlike the ancient tombs that I have seen before, this place cannot be called an ancient tomb, but it is more appropriate to call it home. ”

Han Wei knew that Li Hua had misunderstood the meaning, so he didn't ask any more, and when he spoke just now, Liu Shi also had a puzzled look, which showed that he was the only one who had a familiar feeling. Where exactly have you seen it? You can't feel that out of nowhere, right?

"Did you find a problem?" Lao Zheng stopped suddenly, turned to look at Han Wei and the others, saw the puzzled looks of the three of them, and said: "It's strange to say, this house full of sandalwood has not flowed out, it can only be smelled in the hall, no matter how much air is not convection, there will always be air conversion, and now this situation is too unreasonable." ”

After Lao Zheng's reminder, everyone realized that this is indeed the case, no matter how ingenious the mechanism is, no matter how exquisite the design is, it is impossible to stop the air flow, and what is the reason for the current situation?

"Could it be that when you are outside the hall, there is something that affects your sense of smell, so you don't smell the scent of sandalwood, and when you enter the hall, this substance disappears, and you smell it immediately." Lao Zheng seemed to be talking to himself, and shook his head after speaking, which showed that he felt that this guess was unlikely.

"It's as simple as lighting a candle to know if the air is circulating." After Liu Shi finished speaking, he also knew that it was not feasible, because he only brought a flashlight, and he did not expect to encounter the ancient tomb and what candles would be brought. Liu Shi suddenly stared at the girl and said, "Of course, it can be replaced by hair." ”

The hair strands are extremely light, and the subtle movement of air, which can also push it, should be detectable. Han Wei, Lao Zheng, and Li Hua's eyes also fell on the girl, who was already awake at this time, hiding in the corner of the hall, curled up, not knowing whether it was cold or scared, and her body was trembling all the time. The girl also heard Liu Shi's words, raised her head, and without saying a word, tore off a handful of hair, and then remained on the ground. The girl didn't make any painful sounds as if she was fine, probably numb.

Seeing the girl so cooperative, everyone breathed a sigh of relief, the girl suffered this bad luck, it is impossible to persecute it, if the girl misunderstands, I am afraid that the spirit will be further traumatized. Liu Shi did not hesitate, immediately stepped forward to pick up his hair, and chose the longest one to tie to the chair closest to the door of the hall. Immediately after that, Han Wei and the four of them walked away, so as not to affect anything.

Staring at the strands of hair, it began to swing back and forth in the air, the inertial movement that had just been tied up. After a moment's wait, the swing became smaller and smaller, and it was already obvious that the hair had been fluttering towards the interior of the hall. It was already evident that the air was moving, and it was circulating into the hall. If the hall is already at the end, then the air will definitely flow back to the sides, and the scent of sandalwood will naturally flow out. However, this is not the case now, the only possibility is that there is still space behind the hall, the air can pass through, and the scent of sandalwood wafts inside, so there is no smell outside the hall at all.

Four pairs of eyes looked at the deepest wall of the hall at the same time, and just checked the walls on both sides, but did not look at the deepest wall, because there were rosewood cases and chairs in front of them. The light shined, there was nothing peculiar, stepped forward to remove the chair and the case, only to find that there was a doorway about one meter high behind the case, and then use a hair strand to put it in front of the doorway, and the hair fluttered into the doorway.

Shining a flashlight into the doorway, before I could see the situation inside, I suddenly heard a few painful screams, which came from outside the hall, the sound was already very weak, but I could feel the heart-rending pain. Han Wei and the four of them didn't know what was going on, and they didn't bother to check the situation in the doorway, so they immediately walked out of the hall to check.
