Chapter 1468: Painted Skin (3)
The leader nodded. Although this Wang Laosi is a dirty person, he has done tomb robbery in the past and is very familiar with these toys. But in the tombs of the Han Dynasty, why did the people of the Axe Gang die here suddenly fifty years ago?
He looked at it carefully. The masonry of these tombs is indeed basically similar, the bottom of the tomb begins to retract inward when it reaches the height of 2 to 3 layers of bricks, and when the two sides of the tomb wall are about 1 foot apart and are about to close, half of the bricks are obliquely inserted in the wide joints, and the triangular sealing bricks at the entrance of the tomb make this kind of tomb like a small boat that is buckled upside down to the ground. He vigorously opened several nearby burial chambers, only to see that in addition to the copper fasteners on the belt worn by the owner of the tomb, there were only one or two burial utensils in a tomb, such as a thin-necked pottery bottle, a copper mirror, a three-colored bowl and some copper coins.
But the strange thing is that the bones of the tomb owner are not visible in each tomb.
The Leader frowned. It's strange, why can't I find the most important thing in the tomb? Could it be that tomb robbers have been here for a long time? It's impossible, there are really tomb robbers, and they will definitely not put down the valuable burial goods and not take them, and just take away the completely useless bones at the risk of taboos.
He opened a few more tombs, and it was still the same.
Wang Laosi walked around the tomb group slowly, and seemed to see some clues. His face was cloudy, and he said with a short breath: "Boss, this place reminds me of an incident I heard when I was young. I don't know if I should say it or not. ”
The leader glared at him, "Say." ”
Wang Laosi looked at the tomb group in fear: "I was only 13 years old at that time, and I was in the business of hooking with a master at that time. The so-called hook, the boss knows very well, it is a tomb robbery. Master took me to a place in Dali, saying that I was going to do a big deal. When he got to the place, he left me at the inn and went alone.
When he came back, he told me about it.
It was a summer evening, and the thunder in the mountains sounded like a burst, and a storm was coming. In order to find the tomb of the former king of Dali, the master who entered the mountain alone couldn't help but speed up his pace, the rain in the mountain came and went faster, and it was easy to get sick when he got wet. He had to find a place to take shelter from the wind and rain. There are usually many caves in the mountains, and the Master searched for them in the grass, and soon found a small hole and hurriedly walked in. The cave was pitch black and the ground was pitted, but there seemed to be something magical in the cave that drew Master forward.
Just as the firelight illuminated the front, Master was stunned, and some dark boat-like things appeared in the depths of the cave.
Looking closely, Master recognized that these were a group of tombs that had been piled up with their heads turned around. Just when the master was overjoyed, he suddenly felt very uncomfortable, as if he had been frightened even more, and he somehow ignored the storm outside, and stumbled out of the cave. It was as if the tombs in the cave did not seem to have any gold or silver treasures, but something more strange that made him so frightened.
The location of the tomb is near Weishan County in the southeast of Dali Prefecture, and the master did not tell me the specific place.
Perhaps because of the fright and the rain, Master and his old man became ill when he returned home, and he passed away soon after. When he was dying, he told me about the tomb group, and told me not to open it if I came across that kind of tomb, and to flee as far as I could. But what the reason was, he didn't say when the old man was dying.
I've always had a guess that maybe these tombs weren't used to bury the dead. And Master saw things that shouldn't be seen. ”
Wang Laosi pointed to the tomb group not far away: "You see, this tomb is exactly the same as what my master described. I've looked at it carefully. There are a total of twenty-eight tombs in front and back, and the twenty-nine tombs in the center and middle are guarded in a circle and a circle of circular arches. There were no bones in the surrounding tombs, only funerary goods. It's like guarding, more like a formation, trapping the most central burial chamber. I'm afraid there's something unclean out there! ”
The leader couldn't help but feel a chill in his heart. The tomb was originally a house for the dead, and it was already very unlucky to be contaminated. Not to mention the size of the tomb, either rich or expensive, after the owner's family is buried, usually send someone to put the bones into the burial chamber that has been repaired a long time ago, this secret is only known to those who inherit it. And the secret cave, the location of the tomb, in order to prevent the tomb robbers from discovering the location of the bones and disturbing their peace, will first send the first batch of people to store the bones, and after the burial, the second group of people will be sent later to kill the people who know the location of the cave, and after killing, these will become eternal mysteries.
Even some rich and noble families will deliberately leave the monsters of the tomb in the tomb to kill all the creatures that break into the tomb. I'm afraid that the people of the Axe Gang died at the hands of this kind of monster. It's just that a monster that can kill more than a thousand masters without leaving scars on the bones will be terrifying. Just imagining it with your brain is terrifying enough!
This place is really not a place to stay for a long time.
The leader immediately made a decision and shouted: "Listen to the order, everyone, withdraw for me!" ”
The subordinates had long been fed up with the strange atmosphere in the cave, and as soon as they heard the word withdrawal, they rushed to the exit. But after walking a few steps, I heard an exclamation from the passage. The leader separated the group and walked to the front, and his perennial calm face suddenly changed color. I saw that the passages not far away had all collapsed, blocking the entire exit tightly, and there were no gaps left.
"Get out of the way!" The leader drew his sword sharply, and luck, with a move of 'clearing the clouds and seeing the sun', slashed heavily at the large rock. A burst of dust flew, and it took a long time for the dark sky to fall, and the blocked passage was still blocked where the line of sight touched, although the big rock had been slaughtered and crushed, but the remaining hole opening project was far from being able to cope with a dozen people here. Moreover, since there have already been landslides, I am afraid that there is a danger of further landslides. Here, it's very unsafe!
The leader sighed slightly, smiled bitterly, and retreated with a knife in his backhand: "Go back, everyone will look in the cave first to see if there are any other exits." ”
I'm afraid, this is already the most helpless way!
More than a dozen people were divided into 5 groups, and in order to save torches, they took turns lighting a torch in groups of three. Then they spread out to various locations in the cave to see if there were any other exits. The leader and Wang Laosi wandered around the tomb group for more than half an hour, and did not see any of his subordinates coming to him with good news.
