100. Burial chamber? (3rd Update)

"Cao Ye, there is a door beam in front of you, blocking the way forward."

Because Lao Hei was injured and hospitalized, the pathfinder this time was replaced by a calm and steady third son.

However, the team soon ran into a tricky place.

From the place of sacrifice, there was only one passage around, but unfortunately the end was blocked by a huge stone door, and a few men tried to push it for a long time but there was no movement.

The third son estimated that there was a mechanism set up on the stone gate, so he didn't dare to act rashly, but asked the guy to come to Cao Qing to discuss countermeasures.

"Door beam?"

Cao Qing was stunned for a moment, and Yan Jun on the side also subconsciously frowned, what does it mean that the door beam blocks the road ahead?

followed the guy through the passage, and it was not until in front of the stone gate that Yan Jun found that the so-called door beam should actually be more accurately said to be a boulder.

The bluestone, which is about three meters long, is carved into a huge door, on which Yan Jun not only saw the cloud dragon pattern inherited from the Shang and Zhou dynasties, but also the typical Songtao pattern of the Ming Dynasty.

His gaze swept over the ornaments, and Yan Jun's attention quickly turned to the stone gate itself.

I don't know what kind of method was used at that time to transport this rock weighing at least a few thousand catties to a depth of more than ten meters.

You must know that there was no mechanical equipment similar to cranes in that era, and if it was purely human, it was hard for Yan Jun to imagine how much civilian power was used to build this royal tomb.

Of course, these were not in his consideration, Yan Jun was just a little emotional, and there was an indescribable amazement.

The main thing is that the design of this stone door is miraculous.

A few men took out daggers and tried to find the load-bearing gap between the door beam and the wall, thus opening the stone door.

But no matter how they searched, it was as if the two had grown together, and there was no possibility of starting at all.

"Master Cao, do you want to blow the door open with explosives?"

An old fellow next to him was obviously angry by this door.

The group of people has been trapped for about ten minutes, and they can't just be blocked all the time.

As a family like the Chen family, which has been inherited for hundreds of years, not to mention explosives, even contraband such as firearms are in stock.

On this trip to Longquan Mountain, I carried explosives with me in order to use them when encountering impassable roads.

It's just that this method will definitely not be used lightly, and it is a helpless move.

Even if there are few people in Longquan Mountain, there is no guarantee that no one will appear, and the movement of explosives is too large, and once it is heard, it will inevitably cause uncontrollable consequences.

After all, this kind of thing can't be put on the table.

"There's no rush for this."

Cao Qing shook his head, unless it was a last resort, it was impossible to use explosives.

And he feared that if a reckless act like the use of explosives was used, a lot of air would be consumed.

This kind of ancient tomb that has not been opened for hundreds of years, there is little air in the tomb, and once there is a huge consumption, it is very likely to cause suffocation.

Hearing him say that, even if the guy was a little depressed, he had no choice but to give up.

"Give me the light."

Reaching out to take a miner's lamp from the third son's hand, Cao Qing reached out and touched it up and down along the door beam, knocking it here and there a few times from time to time. His expression was extremely serious, and when he saw this, the people around him even slowed down their breathing, for fear of disturbing his actions.

Yan Jun also stared at him seriously, after all, he was an old man with more than 20 years of experience in fighting back, and this kind of opportunity was not common.

Soon, Cao Qing's eyes suddenly lit up, as if he had discovered something, his eyes were no longer on the door beam, but turned around and began to observe.

Seeing this scene, the guys all looked at each other and looked at Cao Qing with a confused expression, unable to understand the reason why he did this at all.

The third son seemed to have thought of something, carrying a mining lamp to help him provide light.

"No, it's obviously true, why don't you have an eye?"

"The four elephants look at the keel on the left, and the five elements go down to the ground and walk from the ground, it should be this position."

Cao Qing's whole person was completely deposited in his own world, and his mouth was still muttering, even Yan Jun could only hear a few words.

But he wasn't just watching, Yan Jun was also pondering, he didn't know when he had taken out the dragon ruler in his hand, unlike Cao Qing, his attention was mainly on the ornaments on the door beam.

At this moment, in his sight, those seemingly chaotic ornaments are far from being as simple as they seem, and they are completely traceable.

"I see."

"The eyes are here."

Almost at the same time, Yan Jun and Cao Qing's eyes suddenly turned to an oil lamp on the wall next to the stone gate.

Very ordinary lamp.

It's not uncommon for everyone to see them along the way, and it can even be said to be extremely common.

Not only in the aisles, but throughout the burial chamber so far, this bronze oil lamp can be seen everywhere so far.

"Is this the Eye?"

"No, I'm a little confused, isn't this just a lamp?"

The guys looked at each other, but Cao Qing and Yan Jun smiled similarly.

However, Yan Jun's face showed more confidence, and Cao Qing's eyes showed a trace of surprise and appreciation.

"Master Cao, is this lamp really the key to opening the stone gate?"

The third son on the side also looked suspicious, and his eyes flickered and swept around on the oil lamp.

Cao Qing shrugged his shoulders, and then said, "Isn't it, you kid will know if you try it?" ”

Walking forward, the third son grabbed the oil lamp and turned it to the left.

Click~

A deep voice rang out, and then the stone door was suddenly opened from the outside to the astonished gaze of all the men.

Click, click, click.

The sound of the stone door gradually opening fell on everyone's ears, as if it had suddenly descended from a far, far away era, and there was an indescribable sense of decay.

Yan Jun once lived in the countryside for a while.

The kind of old door that has lived for many years and has a wooden door will make such a sound when it is pushed open.

It is true that this door beam has not been opened for hundreds of years.

Even under this kind of tomb, countless dust inevitably accumulates in the cracks of the door.

Under the light, dust flew up, and Yan Jun, who was standing not far from the door, subconsciously stretched out his hand to cover his mouth and nose, but his eyes were still staring at the back of the door.

Darkness can be unsettling and frightening, but it is also curious, and it is intensely curious.

Not only Yan Jun, but also Cao Qing, Sanzi and the guys on the side, all stepped forward, and the people standing behind could only tiptoe.

"It seems to be...... The burial chamber. ”

"It's a bit like, it's supposed to be a burial chamber, right?"

The world behind the stone gate presents an unusual darkness, not at all the feeling of darkness, but a kind of thick ink splashed out to render it, even if several mining lamps shine into it together, it still can't penetrate the thick black mist.

However, some things can still be seen faintly, such as the outline of the burial chamber.

A few young guys couldn't help but exclaim, even the older guys couldn't hide the joy on their faces.

As soon as the tomb appeared, it meant one thing, they had reached the center of the entire tomb.
