Chapter 101: The Chamber of Secrets sarcophagus

With the episode just now, Zhang Gong became extremely sensitive and cautious. He circled around the side a few times, and after ruling out the possible mechanism, with Professor Chen's cooperation, he gently lifted the corpse and moved him aside. Just as the body was removed from the ground, a round stone was found beneath him.

After putting down the corpse and opening the stone, he finally made the expected discovery: a round stone hole, about the size of the golden key.

Zhang Gong looked at Professor Chen with a little excitement, and after getting a tacit nod of confirmation, Zhang Gong took out the golden key from his backpack and gently put it in. Seeing that the size was suitable, Zhang Gong began to slowly exert force in his hand, and slowly pressed down the golden key. As the key gradually entered, suddenly out of nowhere there was a "whoosh" sound of iron chains, accompanied by a burst of sounds, there was also a reaction on the cave wall: a stone door was opened due north.

As the stone door opened, the strange smell that Professor Chen had seen intensified. Professor Chen used a flashlight to shine inside and found that there was a stone bed in the center of the room, on which a thin corpse lay quietly.

Professor Chen walked lightly to the stone gate and took a flashlight on the stone door to find that the side was covered with a thick layer of yellowish grease, which was emitting a strange smell. Seeing this, Professor Chen understood, and dared to feel that what kind of animal grease was smeared in the cracks of this stone gate to isolate the air, and it seemed that the probability of accidental discovery inside was increasing.

Professor Chen smiled slightly, transferred the flashlight from the stone door to the stone bed, carefully observed the corpse above, and said to Zhang Gong, "Old Zhang, what do you think now?" ”

"I don't have any idea, but I can confirm that this is the main master."

Professor Chen shook his head and said, "Don't jump to conclusions, there are a few doubts that have not been resolved, one, if he completed the design and engineering supervision of the entire tomb by himself, then how to explain the escape passage outside?" Is it really entirely the workers who escaped? Second, if the corpse that induced you to light the fire just now was made by him, that suspicion is understandable, but how did he close himself inside? It was greased, but there was no container for the grease, how did he do it? Third, if it is said that the descendants buried him here, this is too shabby and does not match his status. ”

"You mean this guy is still not the right man?"

"Well, there are too many true and false things in the ancients, and there are too many doubts about these things in front of us, and the logical relationship cannot be established."

"Could it be arranged by his personal men?"

"This is possible, let's not discuss it for now, let's go in and take a look, and verify it one by one with the elimination method."

After entering, the person lying on the stone pillow inside was also an old man, wearing the same Xuanduan as the one outside, and the strange thing was that this corpse also showed the same smile. Professor Chen carefully circled around the stone bed and found that there was nothing else to furnish it except the stone bed.

"Interesting!" Professor Chen pondered for a while and then said to everyone, "If there is nothing here, just a corpse, then why is it so complicated?" It's the key and the grease. ”

Feng Weiguo, who had been following the team as a student, was no longer silent at the moment, he thought for a while and said, "Professor Chen, could this be the mystery set up by the tomb owner?" Maybe this person is the Zongbo, and his purpose is to make us not distinguish between truth and falsehood. ”

"His motive can be assumed in this way, here is where he set up a game for us, after all, what we can think of, he must have thought of it, so I personally analyze that this is not him, so since we all know that there is no point, why do we have to lay it here? If that doesn't make sense, that's a big problem in itself, and it's not just a mystery. ”

"Lao Chen," Zhang Gong on the side has been staring at the face of this corpse since he came in, but how can he feel strange when he looks at it, how can a normal person have such an expression after death? So he asked, "What do you mean by saying that these two bodies have the same expression?" ”

"This should be caused by taking some toxin or some nervous drug, there will be no nitrous oxide such laughing gas in ancient times, but there are anesthetics developed by Hua Tuo with mandala flowers, etc., and there are also some witchcraft folk who will use some illusionary things, which may cause such a strange smile, and I also judge that he is not the real tomb owner through this; Although this will not be the main one, but existence is reasonable, the one outside is to induce us to ignite here, one is to prevent theft and burn us, and the other is to melt the ice on this travertine door, so that the mechanism can be opened smoothly, so that the stone door can be opened; The one out there is understood, but what about here? ”

"Well, don't guess, let's move this old guy up and see?"

Just do it, Zhang Gong gently touched the corpse with his hand and found no abnormality, and then gently untied the clothes on the corpse, but this corpse was very normal, there was no spliced corpse like the outside, and no mechanism was found.

With the cooperation of Zhu Gong, the two of them moved the body outside. In this way, the stone pillow that had been pillowed was engraved with the words "why life comes and why death goes" in seal script.

Feng Weiguo looked at these words and asked, "Professor Chen, what do these words mean?" Does it explain his confusion and melancholy? ”

"People who are about to die with great ambitions will have such feelings, and there are still many things that have not been done, and people are ready to leave this world, which should be the description of the psychology of the person who is engraved before he dies."

Looking at this stone pillow carefully, Zhang Gong found the clue, he said: "This stone pillow is a mechanism, you go out first, I will try it myself." ”

Professor Chen asked uneasily, "What is the purpose of your analysis?" ”

"There shouldn't be any more danger here, I think this should be used to open some kind of secret room, not defensive."

"In that case, I'll accompany you, and you can open this mechanism."

Looking at Professor Chen's firm eyes, Zhang Gong understood that this look represented absolute trust, he smiled and nodded to confirm that there was no problem, then put his hands on the stone pillow, and then twisted hard, with a "boom" sound, the stone bed slowly moved to the side, and a sarcophagus appeared below.

There are no reliefs and patterns on the sarcophagus, nor any special materials such as white marble, this sarcophagus is directly excavated and polished from the mountain.

Seeing the sarcophagus, Zhang Gong said excitedly: "Lao Chen, the main master is ready to appear!" ”
