The custom of thick burials has a long history in China, and those who have been in power for generations will not hesitate to spend manpower and financial resources to build mausoleums and underground palaces. In order to prevent their tombs from being invaded by tomb robbers, those tomb owners will go to great lengths to set up various defense mechanisms in the tombs to try to prevent tomb robbers from entering, and some even want to put tomb robbers to death, and the tomb door is often the place where the first organ is placed.

Behind the tomb door are often liquid objects such as quicksand, poison gas, or mercury, but in either case, if the tomb door is violently damaged, the mechanism will be triggered, and there is no chance that the person in front of the tomb door will survive.

Seeing that Zhang Xuefeng commanded two mercenaries to take out a package of black explosives and prepare to blow up the white marble gate, I cursed in my heart, quickly stopped it, and shouted loudly, "Don't blow it up!" Otherwise, we will all die without a place to bury! ”

Zhang Xuefeng glanced back at me, smiled contemptuously, and continued to fiddle with Xiao Hei's position, but it was also a loss that the jade giant gate was full of blood and water, and it was not easy to place, otherwise, he might have detonated Xiao Hei with his words.

I didn't have a good impression of this person from the beginning, and the kick in the black pool almost killed me, and I always remember this account for him. The joint fight against the cannibal leech just now finally sprouted a trace of friendship with his comrades-in-arms, which was wiped out by the contemptuous smile he had just had. An enemy is an enemy after all, and any false fantasy of turning an enemy into a friend is unrealistic, this guy is very shady, and I secretly remind myself that I must always be on guard in the future.

Seeing that I was trying his best to stop him, although he didn't understand the reason, he also did his best to uphold my supreme instructions as always, and rushed to the white jade giant gate with an arrow, ready to grab the black explosives in the mercenary's hands. Seeing that someone was approaching behind him, Zhang Xuefeng turned around and lifted Thompson at a very fast speed, aimed the shooting port of the black hole at the black bull, and threatened word by word, "Go further, Lao Tzu will make your head bloom!" ”

The black bull quickly didn't eat hard and soft, and decisively lifted Thompson in his hand, aimed at Zhang Xuefeng, crossed the muscles on his face, and said: "Master Niu, I have been scared since I was a child!" Your trick doesn't work with my grandfather. You're fucking blowing up this stone gate, everybody has to die! Anyway, it's a life, Niu Ye, I'll take a gamble to see which of us is fast! It's a big deal to be a martyr! ”

The two held Thompson against each other, and neither of them had a preemptive strike, let alone the intention of letting go. At this time, Xiao Hei had been glued under the tomb door by the mercenary with palm-wide insulating tape, the mercenary looked at Zhang Xuefeng hesitantly, waiting for his final instructions, Zhang Xuefeng continued to hold Thompson to the black bull and slowly retreated, while ordering the mercenary to continue to act. The small black they used this time has the advantages of small size, strong blasting power, and small shock wave to other surrounding objects. And that mercenary is obviously professionally trained and knows how to blast technology, and his method of installing Xiao Hei can make full use of the energy of Xiao Hei's explosion to achieve a small and large effect.

Seeing that Zhang Xuefeng retreated to a certain distance from Shimen, the mercenary hunched his legs and prepared to escape, took out a lighter and prepared to light Xiao Hei's fuse, I cursed in my heart, and quickly pulled Gu Yixin to find a place to hide. Suddenly, half of the jade cigarette stick flew out from beside me, and the volley knocked the lighter in the mercenary's hand into the gap between the rock wall and the stone platform. I turned my head to look, only to see Gao Moli put away the throwing posture, walked straight to the stone door, tore off the little black stuck to the stone door, and prepared to throw it away.

Seeing this, Hei Niu hurriedly stopped him, "Little brother, little brother, wasting things is not a fine tradition of our army, and the materials handed over still have to be handed over to a special person for safekeeping!" As he spoke, he saw the black bull dragging Thompson with one hand, taking off the backpack with one hand, biting the zipper with his teeth, and gesturing with his jaw, Gao Moli turned his hand and stuffed Xiao Hei into his backpack.

Zhang Xuefeng had already learned Gao Moli's power before, but now when he saw Gao Moli stop him, he didn't dare to talk nonsense, so he had to put away Thompson and stand aside and look at us angrily.

Professor Kang looked at the slowly rising jade gate in front of him with a flashlight and said, "Such a magnificent and exquisite jade gate is really rare in the archaeological world, and it is a pity to destroy it, but we have to find a way to open this door, it is better for everyone to push and push together, even if it is a stone crack that people can squeeze through." ”

Professor Kang was so carried away by the victory that he was so focused on getting in as soon as possible that he forgot the most fundamental problem, and I reminded, "Professor Kang, do you remember a TV program you interviewed a few years ago?" The tomb of the Qing Emperor who escaped the looting of Sun Dianying, during the archaeological excavation, found that there was a mercury mechanism hidden behind the door of the main tomb, and at that time you explained the principle of setting this mechanism in the column: after the craftsmen buried their masters, they had to leave the tomb, and this door had to let them out, and others could not enter after they went out, so they dug a pit behind the door, which was filled with mercury, and then put a top door stone in the mercury, and when the door was closed, the stone door would press down the stone in the mercury, When the stone door was closed, the stone floated up because of the mercury, and if you tried to force your way in, the mercury in the pit would flow out and poison everyone in front of the tomb. ”

Professor Kang patted his head and blamed himself and said, "Look at it, I'm really confused, I actually forgot, all decent tombs must have a lot of mechanisms, not to mention that there are deadly mechanisms behind this jade giant gate, let's be careful!" ”

The surrounding man-eating leeches slowly approached, apparently trying to lick the blood splattered on the stone platform. The gate rises as the rock wall moves, and we must open it before it disappears into the mountain again, or we will be completely reduced to the belly of those leeches. Even if God has mercy and is unwilling to take our lives for the time being, if we want to wait for this giant door to appear again, we don't know how long it will be.

I forced myself to be quiet, took the wolf-eyed flashlight in Professor Kang's hand, frowned, and carefully looked at the stone door in front of me, the stone gate was towering and majestic, the mountains, rivers and stars were all on the table, and the auspicious clouds on both sides of the door frame were full of auspicious clouds.

Professor Kang held his glasses, looked up, and said while looking, "I don't have much research on seal script, these words look like small seals in seal books, small seals are also called 'Qin seals', which is the general script of the Qin State, a simplified font of the big seal, which is characterized by a uniform and neat shape, and the font is easier to write than the Zhou script." In the history of the development of Chinese characters......"

I hurriedly interrupted Professor Kang's words, "Professor Kang, we will hold a grand lecture for you after returning to Beijing, but the situation is a bit critical at the moment, so let's be concise and straightforward. What do these words mean? ”

Professor Kang nodded yes again and again, pointed to both sides of the door frame and said, "Judging from the shape alone, the words on these two sides seem to be repeated, but they are arranged in different order, uh, I only recognize these words." He pointed to the second word on the left door frame and said, "It's a 'door' word." ”

I smiled bitterly in my heart, and he only recognized the word "door" after looking at it for a long time, which has no meaning to us at all, even if there is no word, we can see that this white marble carved is a door to the underground palace. When he was helpless, Gao Moli looked at the door frame of the stone door, and said quietly, "You can't enter the door, and you can't enter the entrance." ”

Hei Niu hurriedly stared at Gao Moli and exclaimed, "As the saying goes, people can't be good-looking, and the sea can't be measured, I didn't expect you to be both civil and military, this knowledge is higher than that of professors, and it was really disrespectful before." ”

Gao Moli actually recognized the seal script on the door frame of the ancient tomb of the Western Han Dynasty, which surprised everyone present, but at the moment, I didn't have time to ask more, Gu Zi analyzed the meaning of the two sentences on the door. The latter sentence is obviously a warning to outsiders who want to break into the underground palace that they will die if they enter this door. Just like many ancient tombs, a stone tablet will be placed in a mysterious way, which reads: "The tomb enters the tomb to die" and other threatening words, in an attempt to cause a certain psychological pressure on the intruder, so as to prompt them to give up tomb robbing. As for the previous sentence, it is a bit of a waste of brain cells when you think about it.

Shengmen is one of the eight doors in the ancient Chinese prediction metaphysics classic "Qimen Dunjia". The eight gates refer to rest, life, injury, Du, scenery, death, shock, and opening. Among these eight gates, the door of life corresponds to the door of death, but where are these eight gates? I frowned and thought, and suddenly saw those polygonal agate inlaid on the jade giant door, and counted carefully, sure enough, it was an octagon, and its surface seemed to have concave and convex textures, but unfortunately it was too far away to see really. It's just that the upper part of this white marble giant door is inlaid with dozens of agate, how can the mechanism be activated?

Nine Palace Heavenly Gate! I suddenly thought of this ancient mechanism in my mind, the Nine Palace Heavenly Gate is a kind of underground palace mechanism recorded in ancient books, and the setting of this kind of mechanism is related to astronomy and gossip.

The designer of the Yizhou Thorn History Tomb was Li Shaojun, a warlock of the Western Han Dynasty, and since he was a warlock, it is not surprising that he added mathematical science to the design of the tomb door. As the saying goes: The law starts from the art, and the machine is born from the heart. Among the various mechanical devices, the mechanism can be called the most important part, it is small and small, but it "affects the whole body". Many warlocks who understand the metaphysics of Feng Shui will deduce and design according to the stars when setting up the mechanism, because the periodic changes of astronomical stars are relatively stable.

The cracking principle of the Nine Palaces Heavenly Gate is actually not complicated, the many agate stones inlaid on the white marble door represent the stars in the firmament, as long as you find the nine stars from it, and then aim a certain direction on the Nine Star Bagua Disk at the location of the North Star, then the giant gate mechanism will be automatically opened. Since it is said on the door that "the door of life is not allowed to enter", it means that the door of death can be entered, that is, as long as the kun position on the gossip plate is aimed at the North Star, the mechanism of this giant door will be opened.

The Nine Stars originated from the ancient nature worship of the stars by the ancients, and is the product of the combination of ancient mythology and astronomy. In astronomy, there is a saying of the Big Dipper in the universe, their ranking is a white greedy wolf, two black giant gates, three Bi Lucun, four green Wenqu, five Huang Lianzhen, six white martial arts, seven red broken army, these seven stars are called the Big Dipper, and there are two stars between the bucket handle broken army and Wuqu, one star is the right Bi but does not appear, one is the left auxiliary common, the left auxiliary is ranked eight, the right Bi is ranked nine, and the seven stars are matched with two stars to form nine stars.

I will crack this "Nine Palaces Heavenly Gate" method and you briefly explained, everyone present did not know as much about the secret art of feng shui as I did, listening to only feel that it was difficult to understand, Professor Kang said that "practice is the only criterion for testing the truth", urging me to try it quickly. I glanced at Gao Moli, and he nodded slightly at me, which was a tacit acquiescence.

This is the first time in my life that I have applied my knowledge of metaphysics and astronomy to practice, and the success of this time is directly related to the survival of everyone. Thinking of this, I suddenly felt a lot of pressure, but I also had to rush the ducks to the shelves, forcing myself to try it.

The black bull was my temporary assistant, and he picked up a bundle of mountaineering ropes and walked with me to the giant gate of white marble. It was the first time for the black bull to observe this stone door so closely, and whispered with a smile: "Old Su, we really came to the right place to enter the mountain this time!" Just this tomb door, with this kind of specification, the treasures inside will definitely not be able to be moved! Damn, what shit luck! With that, he pulled out his paratrooper knife from his waist and tiptoed to pick up the polygonal agate inlaid on the jade gate.

I raised my foot and kicked him in the ass, scolding, "You can't fix your stinky problem, don't move now, if you touch any of them, the mechanism will be activated." ”

The black bull smiled and put the paratrooper knife back, and threw one end of the climbing rope through the eaves of white marble carving, the climbing rope went around the eaves corner, showing an N-shaped hangdown, the black bull pulled the two ends of the climbing rope with his hands, jumped up with both feet and tried it, and the eaves were enough to bear his weight. I took a piece of the rope from his hand and tied it to myself, and when the black bull saw that I was ready, he shouted "go", and pulled the other end hard, and lifted me up at once.

I dangled like a trapeze artist in front of the stone gate, and I couldn't think about the scene, or I would find it ridiculous.

Gu Yixin reminded me to be careful, I answered, stretched out my hand to grab the agate stone to fix myself, after thinking about it, forget it, if I accidentally touch the mechanism, if there are some bows and crossbows and dark arrows behind the door, then I will instantly become a hanging cactus hydrangea. After thinking about it, I carefully counted the number of agate and determined the specific location of the nine stars of the Heavenly Palace. Then I gently wiped off the heavy sediment on each agate with my sleeve, and as I expected, small red gossip plates appeared in front of my eyes. I took a deep breath and said silently, "All the gods and Buddhas bless you!" Holding the agate stone plate with both hands, he turned it as he counted the laps.

Although thousands of years apart, due to the special geographical environment and the excellent stone materials, those agate jade stones are not very laborious to turn. After I finished turning one, I moved to the next Bagua Agate and continued to rotate in front of the gap, and so on several times, I was very busy.

Hei Niu watched it funny below, and shouted at the top of his voice: "Lao Su, I think you can go to Beijing Film Studio to be a group actor another day, with this technology, it is not a problem to play a Batman." If you can't play the winged one, you can play a little gecko. ”

I knew the black bull's jokes and shouted to him, "Then you'll have to put a tail on me." ”

Black Bull laughed, "Didn't you carry it yourself, but it was relatively short." ”

Professor Kang didn't understand what Hei Niu meant, but instead shouted at me seriously, and the tone was like a leader encouraging the morale of front-line employees, "Xiao Su, you must be careful and concentrated!" Don't be distracted by jokes. As long as you succeed in opening this door, you will have time to tease. ”

I was just about to reply when there was a knock behind the door, not in a hurry or slow, as if it was a polite knock when I went to someone's house. Although the sound was not loud, but I happened to stick to the stone door, and I heard it very clearly, and I was really startled, and I couldn't help but be stunned, could it be that there are still living people behind this stone gate? That's damn incredible.

I froze there, and the last agate gossip plate didn't know whether to turn or not, for fear that if the stone door opened, we wouldn't be able to cope with the situation inside. The black bull didn't hear the knock on the door below, and shouted at me, "Old Su, can you hurry up, if you drag it any longer, I will become a little gecko without a tail!" ”

I held the last agate bagua stone in both hands, turned my head to look down, and saw more and more man-eating leeches crawling onto the stone platform, competing to suck the blood on the ground, and some had begun to attack the living. I'm in a state of mind at the moment, the soldiers are coming, the water is coming to cover the earth, damn, open the door first!

I gritted my teeth and twisted the last agate gossip stone, my hand stopped, and with a dull frictional sound, a gap slowly opened between the two closed white marble doors, which was large enough for the next carriage to pass through. I was still thinking about the knock on the door just now, and hurriedly turned on the tactical spotlights above my head and shone into the door, which was pitch black and seemed to have a lot of space. A stream of air rushed out of the crack in the door, and I shook a little.

When the black bull saw that the stone door had been opened, he quickly slid me down, and when he was still five or six meters above the ground, he suddenly let go, and I fell heavily to the ground. "That's how you treat the heroes of the party-state?"

I complained and went to see him, only to see the black bull holding the waistband of his pants with one hand and reaching into the pants with the other, I sharply criticized, "There are still female comrades here, and there is no time for you to play hooligans, black bull!" ”

The black bull said with an innocent face: "It's fucking, this mother cannibal leech is playing hooligan, okay!" With that, he tore off a large man-eating leech from his inner thigh, and the man-eating leech's abdomen was slightly swollen, and it seemed that it had sucked a lot of blood. The black bull threw it to the ground and trampled it to death.

The stone wall had slower its ascent, and the crack was no longer much of a threat to the leeches, and at this point, more leeches were pouring in again. The threshold is more than ten meters away from the stone platform, and the eaves at its upper end have almost touched the top of the cave.
