Zhang Ju took out a shovel from his backpack, Su Ce's eyes lit up, staring at the shovel in his hand, and said with some surprise: "Brother Ju!" Where did you get the shovel? ”

Zhang Ju turned his head to look at him and smiled slightly: "Dawa got it at home!" ”

Su Ce was shocked: "It turns out that you went to the village to get this thing!" ”

Zhang Ju nodded, squatted down and began to dig, and after a while, he flattened the somewhat sloping slope in front of him. He turned his head to Xu Yuling and said, "Yuling, bring the compass!" ”

Xu Yuling turned around and came to him and gently put down the compass in his hand. She adjusted the compass slightly to make it smooth, and then spoke: "Zhang Ju! Get out of my way, get out of my way! ”

Zhang Ju walked quickly behind her, only to see her hands on the compass, and began to gently turn the inner disk of the compass, until the north end of the magnetic needle coincided with the bottom line of the sea, she withdrew her hands. Then she began to swing the red rope on the compass, and a copper coin was tied to each end of the red rope. She swung the red rope back and forth, and did not stop until the red rope and the magnetic needle coincided completely.

She followed the direction of the red rope and looked ahead, the southern peaks looming in the clear night sky. After staring at this direction for a long time, she opened her lips slightly and said, "Li Zhongge's tomb should be nearby, and the tomb on this mountain can only be north-south." The mountain to the south has three peaks, and that is a hump mountain. Presumably, the mountain of Li Zhongge's tomb should be the peak of the mountain in the middle. ”

Su Ce on the side said impatiently: "Where is the tomb?" ”

Xu Yuling glanced at him and said, "Don't worry! ”

With that, she took the compass on the ground in her left hand and walked to the right. Seeing this, Zhang Ju and Su Ce also followed. I saw that the magnetic needle on the bottom of the compass was constantly swinging left and right, and it was estimated that she had walked nearly a hundred meters, and she suddenly stopped. The magnetic needle of the compass stopped oscillating, and the position of the magnetic needle was the tip of the mountain in the middle of the peak to the south.

She flattened her left hand and gently swung the inner disc with her right hand, and after a few seconds, the inner disc was aligned, and then the red rope was slightly swung. After everything was ready, Xu Yuling spoke: "His tomb should be under this line, according to Dawa's description, it was on the mountain back then, but I don't know what height." ”

After saying that, she put the fingers of her right hand together, and a yellow light flew out of her fingertips, covering the compass in her left hand. Then Xu Yuling put the compass on the ground, and then the yellow light quickly gathered on the red rope, extending along the red rope to both sides. After a while, a yellow line appeared halfway up the mountain, like a glow stick.

Zhang Ju smiled slightly and said, "So, it's under this yellow line?" ”

Xu Yuling nodded and said: "The tomb is definitely in the position of this yellow line, but I don't know its depth, and I don't know whether it is in front of or behind this line change, but it is definitely on this line." ”

After finishing speaking, Xu Yuling put away the compass on the ground, and took the yellow light to keep it. Su Ce immediately spoke: "Since that's the case, let's start acting!" Brother Ju! How to dig this thief hole? ”

Zhang Ju turned his head to look at him and said, "There is no need to dig, we will go directly through the surface and enter the belly of the mountain." ”

After hearing this, Su Ce spoke: "Yes! I've always forgotten to penetrate this ability! ”

Xu Yuling looked at the two of them and said, "Then let's go!" ”

Zhang Ju reminded: "The bag is on your back, right?" ”

Xu Yuling and Su Ce nodded at the same time, and then the three of them began to blur their bodies, and the white moonlight passed through their bodies and shone on the ground. The shadows of the three of them disappeared to the ground in an instant, and they began to sink downward. At this time, the moon in the east was almost overhead, and the moonlight began to gather, like a spotlight on the stage, gathering into a beam of light.

Seeing this, Zhang Ju said softly: "Slow! Moonshine is a little weird! ”

Hearing this, Su Ce and Xu Yuling raised their heads at the same time and looked at the moonlight in the sky. The surroundings began to darken, and the surroundings that had been illuminated by the moonlight were now pitch black. The gathered beam of light shone straight on the cliff behind them, and that position coincided with the position of the yellow line, and if the yellow line continued to extend, it would surely pass through the center of the dazzling circle of light above the cliff.

Su Ce said with a look of surprise: "The moonlight is extremely yin qi, and it has all been gathered, and the yin qi in this place is absolutely heavy!" ”

Zhang Ju looked up at the circle on the cliff and said, "If this scene happens here every full moon night, it means that all the moonlight is not gathered here, but only the moonlight in this plain surrounded by mountains. ”

Su Ce was a little puzzled: "How can you see it?" ”

Zhang Ju continued to explain: "From childhood to adulthood, I have seen a lot of moonlight on a full moon night, and I have seen a lot at this point in time. When I was far away in Nanjing, I never saw the moonlight disappear. Have the people here never seen a full moon night? ”

Xu Yuling nodded slightly and said, "Maybe I haven't seen it, maybe it wasn't like this before, until Li Zhongge was buried, it became like this." ”

At this time, Su Ce looked up at the moon in the sky, and saw that there was a black dot in the middle of the moon. He pointed to the moon above his head with his right hand and said, "Look at the middle of the moon, there seems to be an unusual black spot, which I have never seen before." ”

When Zhang Ju and Xu Yuling heard his words, they immediately raised their heads and looked at the moon. I saw that the black dot was getting bigger and bigger, and gradually, a black figure appeared in front of them. The figure was getting closer and closer, as if the moonlight was a road, and the figure stepped on the moonlight, and in a blink of an eye came to the front of the cliff.

The figure didn't look back, Zhang Ju and they didn't see what the figure looked like, the figure came to the cliff, paused for a few seconds, and then went straight through the white circle of light and disappeared on the cliff. At the same time, the moonlight that had gathered together began to disperse, and everything returned to its original state.

Xu Yuling was dumbfounded, and it wasn't until Zhang Ju shook her shoulder that she came back to her senses, she looked at Zhang Ju and said, "That figure seems to have entered the belly of this mountain, do you think that figure will have anything to do with Li Zhongge's tomb?" Could the tomb be in the middle of that cliff? ”

Zhang Ju and Su Ce both nodded, and Zhang Ju said: "It's very likely, we may save a lot of trouble now, and we can also enter from the previous aperture, maybe we will go straight to the Yellow Dragon." ”

Su Ce gave a thumbs up and said, "Brother Ju is right, we'll go in from there." But the figure seems to have come up from the moon, is there really anything on the moon? ”

Xu Yuling smiled slightly: "Above the moon, isn't there Chang'e?" ”

Su Ce immediately spoke: "Isn't Chang'e a mythical person? ”

Xu Yuling opened her mouth and said: "There are both the underworld and the heavenly court, maybe there is Chang'e on the moon!" ”

Zhang Ju said: "We humans have been to the moon, and it is uneven, how can there be any Chang'e and palace, this should just be a legend!" ”

Xu Yuling snorted, a little unconvinced: "But the figure just now is very suspicious, I don't think the moon is as simple as imagined." It's not as simple as the previous news said, there should be something unknown. What's more, the people who landed on the moon before have not fully understood the moon, how do they know if there is anything else strange on it. ”

Su Ce immediately agreed: "Yuling is right! Maybe there is a moon palace above the moon, but the moon palace is underground. I think that only underneath, in the dark, is the real prison, and that kind of Moon Palace is what it looks like to imprison Chang'e. ”

Zhang Ju looked at the two of them and said slightly: "This is all your speculation, let's ignore the moon first, our world will be gone, let's go in quickly!" ”

As soon as the words fell, the three of them came out of the ground and headed straight for the cliff. In less than a second, the three of them disappeared into the cliff. After the three of them entered the cliff, at Zhang Ju's suggestion, the pupils of all three were red. After they crossed the cliff wall more than a hundred meters later, a passage suddenly appeared in front of them.

This passage is more than one person high, and both sides of the passage are full of stone walls, and there are deep artificial chisel marks on the stone walls. Su Ce said softly: "This seems to be a tomb road?" ”

Zhang Ju said: "It feels more like a thief!" Look at this chisel mark, it seems to have been dug out of the rock! ”

Su Ce retorted: "I don't think it's like a thief hole, if it's a thief hole, it's too time-consuming to dig like this." It's a stone, not dirt, and it hasn't been dug up yet, so I think it's more likely, but it's too strange, it seems that this tomb is specially prepared for the black shadow. ”

Zhang Ju nodded and said, "Indeed!" However, beyond this tomb is a hundred-meter-thick cliff, and it seems that this tomb road is deliberately extended here, could it be that seven or eight hundred years ago, the scene we see today has been continuing? ”

Su Ce opened his mouth and said: "It is very likely, it seems that that Li Zhongge is not simple, and there seems to be some ulterior secret." ”

Xu Yuling said a little anxiously: "Let's continue to look forward, do we want to light the lamp?" It feels like you may not be able to see clearly. ”

Zhang Ju shook his head and said, "Don't order it yet, at this time, with our eyes, we can still see the things in front of us a little." It's a bit weird here, we can't reveal our location, we'll look into it, and the figure doesn't know where it is, let alone who he is, and what his abilities are. It's all unknown, it's better to be careful! ”

Then the three of them walked forward quickly, Zhang Ju walked in the front, Xu Yuling walked in the middle, and Su Ce walked last. After they walked along the tomb road for more than ten meters, Su Ce suddenly spoke: "Why don't we go directly through the walls on both sides, will it be too wasteful of time to walk along the tomb road like this." ”

Zhang Ju turned his head and said: "It is the right choice to follow the tomb road, you think, at this time, our visibility is very low, and it is only more than ten meters." You can't see where the main burial chamber is, and it's easy to get lost in it if we run around. The tomb road is a good signpost, and you will find the main burial chamber along it. ”

Su Ce was a little puzzled and said, "Didn't Yuling say that the tomb is below this straight line, if we follow this straight line, we will not be able to find it quickly." ”

Zhang Ju immediately replied: "But we don't know whether to go up or down, or forward, all this is unknown." Going up, there's a height limit. However, if you go down, if you can't see the tomb all the time, you have to go down as deep as you can't see the end. Even if we determine the end, whether we go in or up, we will waste more time. It's better to follow the tomb road, which saves time and effort. ”

After Su Ce heard this, he suddenly became convinced, and Xu Yuling silently praised Zhang Ju in her heart. They continued to move forward, walking nearly two hundred meters, and it was always like this. Su Ce was a little surprised and said, "This tomb is not short!" I don't know how long it took to dig by then, it's really a huge project, and I don't know where the excavated rocks are placed. ”

Zhang Ju said: "I don't know! This tomb of Li Zhongge is not simple, looking like this, it is somewhat similar to the tomb of the Han people. ”

After they continued to walk forward for more than twenty meters, an intersection appeared, Su Ce looked surprised and blurted out: "Brother Ju! How do we go now? ”

Zhang Ju turned his head to look at Xu Yuling and said, "Yuling, with your experience, how do we go?" ”

Xu Yuling looked at the crossroads in front of her and said slowly: "The ancients respected the right, let's go to the right!" ”

Zhang Ju nodded and said: "Then that's it, no, let's turn back, we are not familiar with the tombs of the Tangut people, so we can only do this." I'm afraid that there will be many crossroads around this tomb, and it will be difficult at that time. ”

Xu Yuling immediately said: "Zhang Ju! Don't crow's mouth! ”

The three of them turned and walked to the right. This tunnel, like the previous one, was dug out of the rock. On the stone walls on both sides, there are all kinds of chisel marks. They relied on the visibility of more than ten meters in their eyes to continue to walk, and everything was normal on this road, and they did not encounter any ghosts or mechanisms.

After they had also walked more than 220 meters, an intersection appeared in front of them. Su Ce's eyes stared at the crossroads, his face sank, and he opened his mouth and said: "It's another crossroads, I have a bad premonition, no matter which direction we choose, after walking the same distance, such an intersection will appear." ”

Zhang Ju very much agreed with Su Ce's idea in his heart, but his mouth was comforting everyone: "Not necessarily, let's try again!" ”

Then he turned his head to look at Xu Yuling and said, "Yuling! Where are we going? ”

Xu Yuling hesitated, her brows tightened, and she opened her lips after more than ten seconds and said, "I don't know how to leave now, or let's choose whatever we want!" ”

Zhang Ju nodded, and said with some helplessness on his face: "Then continue to the right and see where you can go." ”

They chose the right and continued to walk forward. Time passed quickly, and in a blink of an eye, they walked more than two hundred and twenty meters, and what appeared in front of them was still a crossroads. Su Ce said with some panic in his eyes: "Brother Ju! If you really said it, the periphery of this tomb can make people get lost. ”

Xu Yuling looked at the crossroads in front of her and said, "Every time we have to choose, when there are many choices, it is impossible to return the same way." What should I do? ”

Zhang Ju also looked at the intersection in front of him, his mind was in chaos, and then said: "Why don't we go back to the previous tomb first, keep moving forward, don't keep turning!" ”

Su Ce opened his mouth and said: "I guess this is the only way, then let's go back first, and then go all the way forward!" ”

Then the three of them began to walk back, and after a while, an intersection appeared in front of them, and they walked to the left without hesitation. They continued to move forward, their pace getting faster and faster, and in a blink of an eye they came to a crossroads again, and they continued to choose to the left. As time passed, Su Ce measured the distance in his heart, and suddenly he spoke: "It should be the end soon!" ”

Zhang Ju nodded, and he also calculated the distance in his heart. Half a minute later, the three of them looked surprised, their eyes full of disbelief. At this time, what was in front of them was a crossroads, and it was not the expected end at all. Su Ce blurted out, "What's going on? Can't go back the way you came? ”

Seeing this, Zhang Ju's face was ugly, and he opened his mouth slightly and said, "It seems that we can only move forward, let's keep moving forward." ”

Xu Yuling was a little nervous and said, "Zhang Ju! Will we not be able to get out? ”

Zhang Ju stretched out his hands, held her hands tightly, and said gently: "Yuling! No, it won't! With me, I will definitely be able to get out, this mechanism seems complicated, and there must be certain rules. ”
