Section 190 Void Graves

"Yes." I replied, "Among the excavated artifacts is a bamboo slip that records the life of the tomb owner. She died at the age of fifteen, which is the age when she was waiting for the word boudoir, which is regrettable. ”

An old man surnamed Chen asked, "In other words, the tomb owner was still a yellow flower girl when he died?" ”

I wasn't sure how I said, "It should be, the bamboo slip says that he hasn't married yet, is there any problem?" ”

"Big problem!" Chen Lao's face was serious: "In ancient times, the death of the yellow flower girl was a symbol of bad luck, and the burial goods could not be accompanied by burials, but according to what you said, there are not a few funeral goods here!" ”

I corrected, "Old Chen, are you mistaken?" This custom only began in the Ming Dynasty, but the owner of the tomb was from the Song Dynasty. ”

Chen Lao touched his beard: "Young man, this custom has been around for a long time, I don't believe you ask Lao Zhu." ”

Zhu Hansong nodded, indicating that what Chen Lao said was right.

"But this doesn't mean anything, maybe her parents love her very much, so they put some funeral goods"

I said this possibility, but Chen Lao had to be more serious with me, saying that the ancients paid attention to funeral etiquette and could not violate this taboo. I don't understand, whether people put the funeral goods or not, what does it matter to him...

At this moment, I only heard an exclamation from the, accompanied by the sound of the stone door rubbing the ground, and when I turned my head to look, I saw a revolving stone door appear on the wall, rolling the and Qingyang Daoyou in! And then it's back to the wall!

There is a stone door hidden in this wall! It must be that the accidentally ran into some mechanism!

I hurriedly ran over and knocked on the wall, shouting as I knocked: "Jiannan, Qingyang Daoyou, are you okay?" ”

But there was no response on the other side of the wall!

I said badly, I didn't expect that there would be a mechanism in this seemingly simple tomb!

I and the people of the Taoist Association were very anxious, but Qi Xinlan had a happy face and said to the black-robed man beside her: "I thought that this time I would return empty-handed, but I didn't expect that there would be no cave... You two, go find the mechanism. ”

Qi Xinlan casually ordered two bodyguards and said.

Two bodyguards came over and fumbled with me on the wall, and it wasn't long before the bodyguard on my right pressed a rock down! In an instant, the wall moved! Spin at breakneck speed!

I subconsciously jumped backwards, but the two bodyguards didn't react so quickly, and they were directly swept to the other side...

……………………

I stomped my foot and said to myself, how could I have dodged just now? You should rush in!

Fortunately, I already knew the location of the mechanism, and just when I was about to press it, Zhu Hansong stopped: "Xiaolong, don't worry, this is a false mound, there will definitely be a killing mechanism!" ”

Qi Xinlan asked with interest, "What does the void mound mean?" ”

Zhu Hansong replied: "As the name suggests, it is to build fake tombs and hide real tombs, which is an anti-tomb robbery method to prevent tomb robbers from finding the real tombs." According to the wild history, after the death of Confucius, his disciples set up five virtual tombs for him to confuse the tomb robbers. However, this kind of virtual mound combining truth and falsehood, the old man has seen it for the first time. ”

Zhu Hansong explained in detail, and a middle-aged man with an eight-character beard from the Taoist Association asked: "Old Zhu, since this is the first time you have seen it, why do you say that there is a killing mechanism here?" ”

"Stupid!" Zhu Hansong taught a lesson and said: "Even such an ingenious stone gate can be designed, do you think there will be no killing mechanism?" In order to prevent tomb robbers, there will definitely be no shortage of mechanisms here! Maybe there will be a crossbow hanging sword, and the fire and poisonous smoke will be ambushed! ”

What the? If there really is such a mechanism, the cheap man has nine lives that are not enough to compensate!

I hurriedly pressed the stones on the wall, and Han Xinying stretched out her hand to stop me, "Didn't you hear what Master said?" There's a killing mechanism in there. ”

"Yes, Xiaolong, don't go in." Zhu Hansong also persuaded: "With just us people, we will definitely lose a lot if we go in, everyone only has one life, there is no need to take risks in such a place." ”

The other old men seconded the proposal and advised me to be sensible and not to be hot-headed.

Seeing that no one from the Taoist Association had any intention of going in, I said: "Thank you seniors for your kindness, but I must bring Yang Jiannan out, and I have to be responsible for his safety... Oh, by the way, I'll also bring out Qingyang Daoist friends by the way. ”

With that, I reached for the mechanism.

"Wait, we're going in too, let's go in together." Qi Xinlan said.

I frowned slightly, ignored her, and pressed the mechanism directly, and the moment the stone door opened, I flashed in sideways...

……………………

After the stone door closed, I shook my flashlight around and found that there was no one else in this tomb except me!

This burial chamber is about five meters long, about six meters wide, built of bluestone slabs, there is a mahogany carved Ruyi pattern mirror platform in the corner, and there is a triangular stool in front of the stage, the style is exquisite. The so-called mirror table, is the ancient dresser, divided into palace and people, look at this fine carving, should be the palace.

It is inlaid with a copper mirror, but it is old and covered with patina.

There was a wooden box for clothes next to the mirror stand, and the lid of the box was opened, and the clothes inside had been turned over, and it looked scattered.

On the other side, there is a wooden bed, surrounded by a white gauze tent, and there are two copper pillar lamps next to the bed, and the lampstand is in the shape of a lotus flower, which is arranged like a woman's boudoir.

But I didn't have time to take a closer look, because the people who had come in before didn't know where they had gone.

There was a stone door on the right, which had been opened, and I took the flashlight and walked inside.

But when I entered the second tomb, I still didn't see any trace of the and the others.

There are calligraphy and paintings hanging on the wall of this tomb, there is a celadon vase standing on the wall, there is a screen in the center, a table and chair are placed in front of the screen, and there is a set of tea sets on it.

But the biggest question is, where did the go?

I came in only three minutes after them, and I couldn't even see their shadows, which didn't make sense.

As I was thinking, the sound of the stone door turning came from the 'boudoir' tomb, and then Qi Xinlan's voice also came: "Slow down, I see your flashlight." ”

After speaking, a group of eight of them walked over, including Qi Xinlan, the black-robed man, and six male bodyguards.

"See those two of my men?"

"No, they're all gone." I replied and walked towards the next burial chamber, where the stone door was open and it was clear that someone had entered.

As soon as I entered the third burial chamber, before I had time to take a closer look, I found that there was a flashlight in the burial chamber in front of me! I hurried over and asked, "Anyone?" ”

But there was no response, which made people feel a little weird.

When I walked to the door, I saw that a bodyguard was lying in a pool of blood, his flashlight was thrown aside, his chest was gently heaving, and his breathing was weak. I hurriedly ran over to help him hold the wound and asked, "Who injured you like this?" ”

His pupils were dilated, and he had a long wound in his neck, and blood was pouring out, apparently hurting his trachea and arteries.

Hearing my call, his eyes moved, and he raised a finger to point to the next burial chamber, and then tilted his head and lost his breath completely. Closing his eyes, I stood up and said, "This bodyguard brother is dead, and the other is missing. ”

Qi Xinlan leaned against the door: "It can't be the two people who came in before to do it, right?" ”

She was referring to the cheap man and Qingyang Daoyou, and I directly vetoed: "Impossible, they have no motive to kill." ”

"That's hard to say, maybe it's because of the desire to get rich?"

I furrowed my eyebrows: "Now is not the time to discuss this, let's find them first... ”

……………………

There was a streak of blood on the ground, like a trail left by dragging a corpse, leading to the next burial chamber. The blood hasn't dried up yet, and I don't know who died, and there is a one-third chance that it was a.

With a heavy heart, the group continued to walk forward.

After following the bloodstains through two burial chambers, I finally saw the corpse in the third burial chamber! Judging by the clothes, it was another bodyguard! Qi Xinlan nunnified her chin: "Go and see if he has lost his breath." ”

A tall and thin bodyguard walked over, but before he could take a few steps, a stone slab under his feet suddenly sank!

I couldn't say it in my heart, so I hurriedly reminded loudly: "Get out of the way!" There is a trap! ”

It's a pity that it was too late, and I saw a sarcophagus falling above, directly smashing the tall and thin bodyguard below! There was a muffled thud, accompanied by the sound of bones shattering! The tall and thin bodyguard was crushed underneath, only one hand was exposed, and after two convulsions, he didn't move.

The sarcophagus weighs three or four thousand pounds, how can a flesh and blood body bear such a weight?

Our attention was on the ground just now, and no one paid attention to the top of our heads, otherwise we wouldn't have hit such a simple mechanism. But this also shows one thing, the corpse is here, and it is simply to lure us to step on the mechanism! There must be something dirty in the tomb

I don't know where the cheap man and Qingyang Daoyou are.,Are they're still alive.。。。

Just as I was thinking, the sarcophagus shook twice, and the coffin lid suddenly flew away, and a purple-haired zombie jumped out! I saw that it was wearing armor, a cloak on its shoulders, a heart guard on its chest and back, and its face was covered with purple hair, and it pounced on us as soon as it appeared!

I was just about to make a move, but the bodyguards took out their pistols and shot at me, so scared that I didn't dare to move, for fear of being injured by mistake.

As it turned out, the pistol was useless against the purple hair, and it quickly approached and grabbed the head of one of the bodyguards! Fortunately, the bodyguard reacted quickly enough and bent down to dodge. Purple Hair Stiff changed targets and pounced directly at me! No way, who called me the most vigorous person here...
