Chapter 15: Galeries Lafayette's Underground Palace (2)

Sun Dianying summoned the death squad. The first group was led by three officers, each with several cronies, a total of more than 20 people, all of whom were outlaws. Each person signed a life and death certificate, and was rewarded with a hundred oceans, and if he unfortunately died, he was given a pension to his family. He also said ugly things in advance, all officers and soldiers were to wear single clothes and pants, and they had to be searched and checked when they entered and exited, and those who secretly hid treasures would not be killed. Sun Dianying also prepared a practice wine for everyone, as if he was going to the execution ground.

Ah Hai and Zhong Shan, Xiao Mu and He Chang were there, and the four of them walked at the head of the team. Stepping into the deep underground palace, it seems to be from the middle of summer to the cold winter, and everyone is shivering. The old eunuch had to kowtow every few steps, and the soldiers behind him inevitably kicked him in the ass. Lanterns and torches illuminated the front, and a black mist rose like a woman's hair, slowly winding from under everyone's feet and crawling down their calves and into their bodies......

Someone was so frightened that he stumbled, and the rifle in his hand went off, and he immediately hit the soldier in front of him. At the moment when the lights flickered, some people thought they had encountered a ghost, and they pulled the bolt of their guns and shot. Ah Hai and Zhongshan hurriedly pulled Xiao Mu to lie down, the old eunuch had nothing else, and his life-saving skills were first-class, so he had already fallen in the corner. The firefight lasted for several minutes, and screams continued to be heard, until Ah Hai shouted: "I haven't arrived at the underground palace yet!" Don't kill each other! ”

When the gunfire stopped, everyone cautiously got up, and then shone it with torches and lanterns, and there were seven or eight corpses lying on the floor tiles, all of whom had been killed by their own people. The gang didn't even touch the door of the tomb, and came out with their brother's body on their backs. Sun Dianying slapped the officer again, immediately filled the crowd, and went back into the tomb.

This time, everyone has learned a lesson, and it is regarded as an exercise, and there is no grass and trees to be soldiers. Ah Hai told the soldiers that Xiao Mu is a master of digging graves, don't look at his fine skin and tender meat, but he is the big leader of the tomb robbery village in Luoyang, Henan. The ancient tombs that Xiao Mu has turned over in his life, if not one thousand, but also eight hundred, isn't this also a good life? Look at the Luoyang shovel in his hand, this is a unique blade he invented. As long as you are bold and careful, your ancestors will accumulate yin virtue, even if you are a tomb robber, there are people who live to die in their seventies and eighties. What's more, we are not tomb robbers, we are revolutions.

Torches illuminated the first chamber door. There are exquisite high reliefs on the door, like beasts and non-beasts, like Buddhas and non-Buddhas, and are carved from complete white marble slabs. There is also a stone carved eaves on the door, which at first glance is thought to be a wooden palace, which must have been written by Qin Beiyang's father.

The old eunuch He Chang was kowtowing again as usual. The soldiers pushed the door together, but they did not move, and some people wanted to raise shovels and hammers, but they were stopped by Ah Hai, fearing that such a shock would trigger some kind of mechanism.

"Xiaomu, only you can open the door to the tomb." Ah Hai put his arm around Xiao Mu's shoulders and pushed him to the crack in the door.

"I'll take a look."

Although Xiao Mu robbed countless tombs, he was accustomed to digging ancient tombs from a thousand to two thousand years ago, and the most recent one or two hundred years ago, but he had never dug such a fresh tomb - the underground palace had been closed for less than twenty years, which made him nervous. He took out a tool from the tomb robbery baggage, a slender long iron wire, and stretched it between the cracks in the door. Regardless of whether it was 2,000 or 20 years ago, the top door stone inherited from Qin Shi Huang has never changed, and the method used by tomb robbers to open this door has never changed. Xiao Mu's hands trembled, and after tossing for a long time, he finally opened the door of the tomb.

The door opened.

Another puff of smoke flickered out, and everyone hurriedly put on their masks, and several officers also put on gas masks, looking more like ghosts. Xiao Mu didn't need these things anymore, he was used to the air in the ancient tomb. He Changzai was originally like a ghost, and his cloudy eyes looked straight into the depths of the tomb, as if a distant master was summoning a minion.

Zhongshan's complexion changed, he and Lao Jin had gone to the tomb to catch the tomb beast, but after all, he was young, and he was a little frightened when he saw this battle. Only Ah Hai's face did not change, hooking Xiaomu's elbow, and the two of them broke into the tomb door side by side.

There are no steps in the tomb path, only a slope that slowly extends into the ground. The soldiers in the rear rushed in, lined up in a neat formation, and no one was allowed to shoot without an order. A second group of soldiers followed closely and stood guard on both sides of the cemetery, with four machine guns mounted at the entrance to the cemetery. Sun Dianying had already made a plan, if the Empress Dowager Cixi was corpse, she would be shot with a machine gun.

The second white marble tomb door was exposed, and the shape was similar to the first tomb door. Xiao Mu took out the magic weapon again, stuffed it into the gap of the tomb door, and pushed open the top door stone in the same way.

The moment the door opened, a gust of wind blew out, and He Chang pinched his throat to remind: "Inside is Lafayette's bedroom." ”

Ah Hai urgently ordered everyone to lie down, and the soldiers fell to the ground in unison, just like they usually practice skirmishers. Xiao Mu also curled up in the corner by the door, looking in by the light of the fire. He has robbed countless tombs, and he has practiced extraordinary eyesight, even in the dark tomb, as long as there is a little bit of light, he can see it clearly.

The underground palace of the Empress Dowager Cixi. The black smoke gradually cleared. Xiao Mu held his breath, carrying the Luoyang shovel, almost crawling on the floor tiles, and holding a flashlight in his mouth to illuminate the black fog in front of him.

No matter how bold the people in the back were, they all fought with their upper and lower teeth. It was Ah Hai and Zhongshan who escorted He Chang and walked into this white marble paved underground palace stone room. Many torches and lanterns came in, and the front was getting brighter and brighter. The black smoke resembles undulating water, carrying a black wooden ship.

Ah Hai remembered the coffin of the little prince of the Tang Dynasty in Bailuyuan, didn't it look like a wooden ship at first glance?

He told everyone to calm down, grab Xiao Mu's side, and the torch illuminates the "wooden boat".

The coffin of the Empress Dowager Cixi. It's like a ship that suddenly breaks through the storm and waves, and almost crashes into pieces on the reef.

There is a white marble platform "treasure bed" on the floor tiles, and a huge coffin is parked, which is the Zigong of the dictator of the late Qing Empire. This coffin is as big as a small house, and like a large shelf bed with mosquito nets, all made of priceless Yunnan golden silk nanmu, different from the rotten smell in the ancient tomb, buried only 20 years ago, and still exudes the original aroma of wood. The surface of the outer coffin was painted with 7749 paints, and then the four heavenly kings and Tibetan scriptures were depicted with gold threads.

When the old eunuch saw the coffin, tears immediately rained down, and the standard "no tears if you don't see the coffin". Ah Hai was sure that the Empress Dowager Cixi was lying in the coffin. There is also a stone pier platform in the underground palace, where there is a treasure book that records the name of Cixi. There are a lot of small cabinets of rosewood piled up around, which are naturally full of funeral goods. The officer ordered that no one should be moved, and that the coffin must be opened and inspected by the commander before he could do anything.

However, there is absolutely no gap between the coffin lid and the body, and the nails have only passed twenty years, and there is no possibility of decay, so they can only be forcibly split with an axe. The soldiers had already prepared the sapper axes, and Ah Hai asked Xiao Mu, "Where do you say you cut it?" ”

Xiao Mu did not look at the coffin, but looked directly behind the coffin, where a dark shadow was covering his eyes......
