But for Hu Dabao, he has lived almost all his life, half a hundred years old has passed, although it is human nature to want to be greedy for life and fear death, but for Hu Dabao, now is not the time to think about that kind of thing.

Hu Hui is still young, she is only in her twenties, and there is still a lot of beautiful life waiting for her, as a father, how can she just watch her die like this?

Although Hu Dabao felt guilty for breaking his promise to his grandfather, but now that there was no way out, Hu Dabao made up his mind to open the stone door.

This time, Hu Dabao was not alone, and he also brought enough manpower and tools before he went. Many years have passed, and it is not easy to find the tomb in this dense forest, but in the end, after a few days of searching in the forest, Hu Dabao still found the ancient tomb.

At the eighteenth crossing, the red pine was still standing upright. Hu Dabao took people to the ancient tomb that night, and when he came, it seemed that no one had ever come again.

Hu Dabao thought that he had forgotten the structure of this ancient tomb, but when he came in again, he found that he clearly remembered the location of the pieces that were put back - the things were still placed there in their original form, and they didn't move.

Hu Dabao is no longer the poor egg he was back then, whether it is those pieces or the treasures in the coffin, Hu Dabao strictly ordered his subordinates not to take any of them.

This group of young people were all from poor backgrounds, where had they ever come to such a magical place, and everyone was very excited at first, as if they were excited when they saw a lot of scattered gold and silver jewelry.

But after Hu Dabao's order came down, everyone put their hearts away, honestly kept the team, protected Hu Dabao in the innermost, and soon found the huge dusty stone gate again.

Hu Dabao's mood was very delicate - there was no such obvious feeling back then. Standing in front of the jaw stone gate, I don't know if I was too nervous, Hu Dabao always felt a bad premonition in his heart, as if once the jaw stone gate was opened, something terrible would happen.

But in the end, thinking about the daughter who needs to lie in bed in bed as a vegetative person for the rest of his life until he dies of old age, Hu Dabao gritted his teeth, and then gave an order, and asked his subordinates to turn on the switch.

The next person didn't know what this stone gate was, and his master told him to do it, and then a few young men in the prime of life walked up and pulled down the stone gate next to the door.

But I don't know if it's because it's been too long, this stone gate, a young man in his prime can't pull it, he blushed, yelled and used his strength to eat, and the stone gate didn't move.

This stone gate is about half a meter long, seeing that one person can't do it, several young men go up and pull down together, everyone's face is about to burst, and the stone gate is still motionless. Hu Dabao was suddenly anxious, and he went up to try it himself, of course, it was the same and couldn't pull it at all.

At this time, a very clever boy who came after him said, "Master, this is an ancient tomb, maybe it is too old, and the stone gate is stuck there, so it is better to take a long stick to pry it."

Hu Dabao thought the idea was good, and immediately ordered his men to make a long lever using the tools he brought. There were no sticks in the things everyone carried, so they improvised an assembly and made one.

After making the lever, the lever was stuck right into the gap in the stone gate, and everyone pressed down hard at the same time.

There was only a creak, and the stone gate gradually moved—and finally, the stone gate made a loud bang, and a puff of smoke shook it, and the stone pole was pulled to the bottom.

Hu Dabao saw that the stone gate had finally moved, and before he had time to be happy, he lit the candle in the southeast corner, but it was suddenly extinguished unconsciously. Hu Dabao didn't find it himself, but his subordinates immediately told Hu Dabao after they found out.

When he wanted to light a candle in the southeast corner, his grandfather told him, and his grandfather made it very clear that as long as the candle was extinguished, he had to leave after three knocks and nine bows, otherwise something would happen. Hu Dabao's heart was like a mess, looking at the extinguished candle, thinking that maybe it was just an accident?

So, Hu Dabao gritted his teeth and asked his subordinates to relight the candle, if he wanted it to be an accident, he shouldn't have extinguished it a second time. When the stone gate was pulled down, everyone originally thought that the stone gate would automatically separate from the left and right, but there was no movement at the stone gate.

"It's weird, this thing is a switch no matter how you look at it, right?"

Hu Dabao sweated anxiously, fat oozed from his fat face, and after he hurriedly wiped it, he stared at the stone gate in confusion.

But looking at it, although the stone gate itself did not see any clues, Hu Dabao accidentally found that from the side, there seemed to be a gap in the stone gate.

There is no change from the front, and because the stone gate is too large, the slightest change will not be obvious. But if you look at it from the side, you will find that there is an asymmetry between the left and right doors of the jaw stone gate.

Before, Hu Dabao remembered that this stone gate was a closed stone gate, which meant that there could be no asymmetry of the stone gate.

A few of Hu Dabao's subordinates were very clever, and after looking at them from the side for a while, he said, "Master, do you think this stone gate needs to be pulled up and down a few more times?" ”

"How many times has Dora?"

The servant nodded and explained, "I used to have a friend who was a tomb robber, and he told me that there are many kinds of mechanisms in this ancient tomb, and he has seen stone doors that require many repeated lifting and pulling of mechanisms to open. ”

When Hu Dabao heard him say this, he suddenly felt that it might be the case, so he hurriedly asked his subordinates to pry up the stone gate again.

And with this prie, the jaw stone door slowly began to tremble—after the trembling, the gap had become clear with the naked eye.

"That's exactly what happened!" Everyone was overjoyed when they saw the changes in the stone gate, and just as Hu Dabao was about to order them to continue to use levers, one of the people in charge of letting the wind out shouted anxiously.

"Sir! Oh no! ”

"What's wrong?"

Hu Dabao hurriedly turned his head to look and found that the sentry boy was facing him with a pale face.

"Old, sir...... This, this candle ......"

"What, it's gone again?"

Hu Dabao's face changed, and he suddenly asked.

"No, it's not ...... extinguished"

Hu Dabao was furious and shouted: "Then what are you yelling about!" ”

The servant wept and mourned, let go of his body, pointed to the candle and trembled and said, "You, you see ...... for yourself"

Hu Dabao looked at the white candle placed in the southeast corner in confusion - he found that the candle had turned blood-red all over, and the firelight was also blood-red!

"This ......"

I looked at the candle that had turned red, and I was a little surprised - this was the first time I had seen this phenomenon, after all, I had no experience of robbing tombs myself.

There doesn't seem to be any record of this phenomenon in the funeral scriptures, and I don't have any relevant information in my head right now. But this blood-red candle is more than a candle...... Rather, it was more like there was semi-solid blood flowing slowly in the shape of a candle.

But in any case, the signal in front of him is now clear - Hu Dabao's behavior has led to some kind of strange situation, and if he continues, he is likely to put himself in danger.

"Old, sir...... Does this continue to prry? ”

This group of subordinates has never seen much of the world, and when they first heard their master say that they would put candles in the southeast corner to ward off evil spirits, they actually felt a little funny in their hearts, thinking that their master was too superstitious.

But now seeing is believing - this strange phenomenon has indeed happened, and they are all a little at a loss. Everyone is afraid of death, although they follow their masters to work, it does not mean that they are ready to put their lives on the line!

Hu Dabao's heart was very entangled, the current situation was obviously not good, if he continued, he really pried open the stone door, and no one knew what would happen.

But if you back down here, things will get better? Obviously not, he may be able to save a life, but it must be hopeless, properly not saved.

This stone gate is also your own fate, so you can find here, the other three stone gates, even the authentic burial master of the family bluntly said that the possibility of finding it is very small.

"Keep prying for me!"

struggled for a long time, and finally Hu Dabao was also ruthless in his heart - death is good death! Even if there really is a ghost, it's a big deal to let that ghost kill itself!

Anyway, if you can't save Hu Hui, it's not interesting to continue to live by yourself. The subordinates of Hu Dabao's family were also afraid, but now that the master's order has come down, they have to continue.

Hu Dabao personally went to throw away the red candle, stepped on it, and lit a white candle again. When everyone pried the stone gate again and again, the gap between the stone gates became larger and larger, and the white candle was no longer extinguished.

However, I don't know if it's an illusion, Hu Dabao felt that there was an extremely cold air slowly surrounding him.

What's even more bizarre is that the others in this ancient tomb don't seem to feel this way, only he himself is now so cold that he wants to shiver, and occasionally he feels a pair of invisible hands that seem to gently rub against his neck.

However, Hu Dabao also understood the structure of the stone gate - this stone gate is like a manual switch, and the stone gate cannot be opened all at once.

Every time the stone gate was pulled up and down, the gap between the stone gates became bigger and bigger, and after nearly twenty minutes, the gap between the stone gates was also the width of two people shoulder-wide.

Hu Dabao ordered his subordinates to stop, and then looked inside curiously, and found that there were no wooden coffins in the other secret rooms outside inside this indigo stone gate.

Lying inside was a square sarcophagus. The secret room in this stone gate is much more spacious than the outside, and the most peculiar thing is that the ceiling is almost ten meters high, several times higher than the entire tomb.

Hu Dabao felt a little puzzled, because when he looked at it from the outside, he didn't seem to see that the terrain above the stone gate was so steep. Hu Dabao carefully walked into the stone gate with a few of his subordinates, and on the top of the roof, it seemed to be full of dense words.

It's just that this should be an ancient text, not to mention Hu Dabao, I looked around, looking at the ancient characters on the zenith, as well as the murals on the wall, I couldn't understand what the words on it meant.

Still, I felt uneasy about the stone gate—the ancient characters were somehow written in blood red. To say that this is already hundreds of years, even thousands of years old.
