Chapter 18: Tomb Complex

Seeing so many corpses in front of me, I couldn't help but feel numb on my scalp. Many of the skeleton's heads were detached from the skeleton and scattered aside. Some of the bones in the mess were black and should have been poisoned. There were still some bones of cows and horses around the bones, and I said in my heart: This tomb owner is too ruthless, even the animals are spared.

The searchlight shone into a corner of the wall, and a black hole appeared. "It seems that some workers have escaped." Tianxiang said on the side.

This is not unusual, as this is the case in many tombs, and many craftsmen design a secret passage for themselves when they are almost finished. After all, they were assigned to work in the tomb, and they knew that they would have to die here when the road was finished.

If it was before, I would definitely say, let's go in and have a look, but looking at the dark hole in the distance, I still didn't say this sentence, but Tianxiang didn't feel my timidity, and then said: "Let's go in and have a look, maybe there will be a way out, the front of this sand road must be blocked, and it will be difficult for us to get out." ”

Before I could express my opinion, Tianxiang stepped on the bones and walked towards the entrance of the cave. Although he had a point, I was reluctant, because there was so much going on along the way.

"What are you waiting for? Come on. Tianxiang had already walked to the middle position, and turned back to me and said.

Seeing him stepping on the bones under his feet, I really didn't know how to start my feet. After calming down for a while, I still have to face it, I followed and walked over, just now I saw that he walked with a lot of effort, but when I came down, it turned out to be a deep foot and a shallow foot, and often I couldn't stand steadily, sometimes the bones could touch my calves, and every contact with the bones made me uncomfortable.

"You kid, what's wrong? I can't walk. Tianxiang urged me in front, and then said: "Look at me, step on the big bone joint, or you will step on the human head, it will be stronger." ”

Hearing him say this, my whole body was numb, and I didn't want to walk on the bones, but I had to step on people's heads. After I saw the direction, I closed my eyes and rushed towards the black hole, shouting: "Don't blame me, this kid made me step on you, if you want to find this kid." ”

I ran until I hit the wall, and after hitting the wall, I didn't stand still, and I bounced back, just falling right in the bones. The two fingers of my left hand seemed to be inserted into something, I looked up, and I screamed "ah", it turned out that my left hand was inserted into the two eye sockets of a skeleton, and I immediately threw the skeleton out of the skull, which scared me into sweating profusely.

Looking back, where I had run, there were some bones that I had trampled on. Because of my scream just now, Tianxiang was still standing there looking at me dumbfounded, and said, "Are you crazy?" If you don't die of ghosts, you have to be scared to death. ”

I exhaled heavily, and didn't pay attention to him, looked at the hole, and took a closer look, only to understand why what was the light just now, this hole is all swarthy, and it turns out that the hole is surrounded by a layer of black dye. Tianxiang also arrived here, and without looking at it, he grabbed the searchlight and got in, and as soon as he entered, my side became black, and I couldn't see anything, so I hurriedly drilled into the hole.

This hole is much better than the thief hole in the pit, it is smooth on all sides, and it is very high, and you can squat and walk. It seems that I have been preparing for a long time, and I don't feel the meaning of rush. The hole is trending upwards and continues to stretch upwards, but only for a short time, and soon to the exit.

Tianxiang didn't climb out of the cave this time, but looked inside at the entrance of the cave, and I followed the light to see that it was a small burial chamber, with two coffins placed in it, arranged in parallel.

Seeing that there was no danger, Tianxiang and I just crawled out. In the other corner of the burial chamber, there is also a hole, which should be the direction of the exit. Tianxiang's old problem was again, and he turned around the coffin, and said to himself there: "The thief is not empty, and he will never be empty-handed when he sees the coffin." ”

"What do you mean? You don't want to open it, do you? ”

"I really like you more and more now, you know me too well." Tianxiang said as he fumbled with the coffin lid.

"If you look at the appearance of this broken coffin, you will know that the lord in the road is an ordinary person, what good things can be, don't waste time."

"Don't underestimate this broken coffin, any random thing here could be a rare antique." As he spoke, he began to exert his strength, and he listened to the sound of "squeak, creak" of wood and the friction of the coffin nails, which was really strong enough, and he lifted the coffin lid partially without any tools.

"Don't look at it, come and help." Tianxiang beckoned me to arrive.

I hurriedly went over and helped hold the coffin lid, Tianxiang put his hand into the coffin, touched it, and really asked him to take out a jade bracelet, handed the jade bracelet to me, and reached out to touch it, and said: "You are really right, what a poor ghost, cover it, it's gone." ”

I put down the coffin lid and looked at the jade bracelet in my hand, a very ordinary bracelet, the condition is not very good, but after all, it is an old jade, and it can be sold for a thousand eight. Tianxiang went around to another coffin, and also opened the coffin lid easily, but in this coffin, it was worse than that, and he didn't touch anything.

After putting down the lid of the coffin, I handed him the jade bracelet and said sarcastically: "Here you go, this is what you call a rare antique, and it is your trophy." ”

"It's a waste of Lao Tzu's physical strength, just make such a play." As he spoke, he threw the jade bracelet to the ground, and the jade bracelet was broken by him.

"It's best not to drop anything on the grave owner next time. You can't take it, but don't offend the gods. "I warn Tianxiang said.

I say this for a reason, we have a rule in the Faqiu Gate, we are not allowed to damage the objects on the tomb owner, and those who do not look at it can not be taken but not destroyed. Although Tianxiang is not from the Faqiu Sect, at least I taboo these.

"As long as you have a lot of troubles, it won't be considered offensive to the gods if you take it well?" Tianxiang said angrily.

I didn't bother with him, it was better to get out of the coffin as soon as possible, and then I didn't waste time, and walked forward along another thief hole, which led us to a small burial chamber like just now, but this time Tianxiang did not ask for the coffin to be opened, but continued to walk along the other hole.

In this way, I changed several robbery holes in succession, each time in small burial chambers, some with two coffins, some with three, and some with one until I came to another burial chamber.

This burial chamber is completely different from the ones just now, this burial chamber has a lot of space, and there are some burial utensils around it.

It seems that this is a family tomb group, this tomb should be the tomb of the patriarch or a person of status in the family, and even the coffin is much larger than the ones just now.

This time, Tianxiang was not walking, but looked around at the funeral utensils, and after looking at a few, he said to me: "There must be good goods in these two coffins." ”

I didn't say anything, I just didn't want to linger here too long.

Tianxiang walked to the coffin and used the same technique to open it, but this time he lost his hand, and he didn't open it after trying several times, so he beckoned me to come over to help.

As soon as I got my hands on it, I felt that something was wrong with the coffin, and the coffin lid seemed to be one, and there was no possibility of prying. I pulled out my dagger and slashed it at the gap in the lid of the coffin, and sure enough, as I expected, it was not riveted, but made of grooves in wood, and filled with lead.

I had a strange feeling in my heart, this is just a family tomb group, how can such anti-theft measures be made on the coffin. Tianxiang also looked at me suspiciously, took the dagger in my hand, and stabbed it into the gap in the coffin lid a few times, and found that it couldn't be pierced at all. Instead of plunging in, Tianxiang smiled instead.

"You can't even get it open, you're still laughing?" I looked at him coldly.

"Rub, you know a fart, the more strict the anti-theft measures, the more goods there are inside, and Lao Tzu has to open it today." As he spoke, Tianxiang jumped up and jumped onto the coffin.

Holding the Ugin dagger, he scraped the lacquer on the top of the coffin, and the lacquer was quickly scraped off by Tianxiang, and in some places it was already visible, the link grooves of the wood. I immediately understood what Tianxiang meant, he wanted to use a dagger to cut out the wood that was attached to the groove. This is not a time-saving job, and you have to have absolute patience, otherwise even if you pick out two pieces, because the time is too long, you don't want to pick out again.

I saw that there was nothing that could help him, so I went to the side to see the funeral utensils, most of them were some daily necessities, there were some bottles and cans, but there was a pair of Tang Sancai calves, particularly dazzling, the bottom of the calf was also printed with the words "Governor's House", it should be the official kiln thing, I didn't think that such a small tomb, there would be something from the official kiln, it really responded to the old people's words: the tomb is not big or small, the utensils are brought out. The meaning of this sentence is to educate us to rob tombs, not to find fault with the size of the tomb and whether the burial is old or young, there are a few old things in each tomb, and it is really good to bring it out.

At this time, Tianxiang jumped down from the coffin lid and began to push up the corner of the coffin lid with force, I hurriedly went over to help, and the two of them reluctantly pried up the coffin lid a little, just enough to put their hands into the gap.

"Okay, that's it, you have to help me hold it off, don't let go, if this coffin lid falls off, you have to fold my arm."

"Zhilu Dao, hurry up, I can't last long." I urged Tianxiang.

As soon as he let go, I immediately felt that the full pressure of this coffin lid was indeed too heavy, and I guess I could hold on for a few minutes.

Tianxiang pinned the dagger back to my waist, reached out and began to touch it. Thinking of the Tang Sancai calf I saw just now, I began to look forward to Tianxiang being able to pull something good out of the coffin, and I couldn't take my eyes off Tianxiang's arm.

Suddenly, Tianxiang quickly retracted his hand, took a few steps back, and fell to the ground.

I was taken aback by his appearance, the coffin lid was almost closed, and I just wanted to ask him what was wrong? Suddenly I felt cold in my hand, and when I looked back, I saw a dry hand, and I don't know when the road came out of the coffin and was on my hand.
