I saw Senior Brother Geng walk to the end of the coffin, press on the coffin with both hands and push it twice, but the coffin weighed at least a thousand pounds, he gritted his teeth and exerted several times, but the coffin still did not move.

I originally wanted to go over and help, but when Senior Brother Geng saw me walking towards him, he waved his hand again, signaling me not to interfere. He sank into the air, smashed a small hole in the ground with a sapper shovel, took out the kettle, and poured water into it.

I watched silently, completely confused about what he was going to do.

After that, Senior Brother Geng shone a flashlight on the small hole he had made, breathed a long sigh of relief, walked to the black sarcophagus again, and gave it a quick push.

This time, Senior Brother Geng didn't use much strength to move the black sarcophagus. It slid quickly a few centimeters on the ground, and then I heard a crunch from deep underground.

It sounded like something was breaking.

I was about to ask Senior Brother Geng what was going on, when the tomb suddenly trembled, and the surrounding stone walls began to crack rapidly, and the stone fragments fell off one by one, revealing nine wide stone doors.

Senior Brother Geng wiped the water and sweat from his forehead, and said to me: "Of these nine gates, there is a way to live, and the others are all dead ends. We should be located due south of the tomb now, facing due north of the door, which should be the birth gate. ”

After walking in the spiral road for so long just now, our sense of direction has long been confused, how can we distinguish where is south and where is north?

I cast an inquiring glance at Senior Brother Geng, who shouted at Luo Fei, "Where's that little pet of yours?" ”

Luo Fei said: "Leave it to Dawei to take care of." ”

Didn't Senior Brother Geng find out that the little wild boar didn't follow Luo Fei when he left the army? He seems to be a little slow to react to this kind of thing.

Senior Brother Geng sighed and asked me again, "Did you bring the glass eggs?" ”

I took out the glass egg and tried to side the source of the yang energy, but after a moment of stillness in my hand, it slid some distance towards the water's edge.

In fact, when I entered here, I had already thought that the yang energy on the glass egg itself was very heavy, and it probably couldn't be used to detect the source of this yang energy in the air, and now he moved towards the water's edge, also because there was a large amount of yin energy dissolved in the water.

Senior Brother Geng looked towards the waterfront, showing a puzzled expression, because there was no stone gate near the waterfront at all.

I said to Senior Brother Geng, "The glazed egg can't find the source of yang energy. ”

Senior Brother Geng let out an "oh" and took out the feng shui disk again, but the magnetic field here was chaotic, and the pointer on the compass kept turning, and it couldn't be used to distinguish the direction at all.

This time, Senior Brother Geng seemed to have no choice, he looked at the compass with a bitter and sad expression.

Liang Houzai pondered for a while, and asked Senior Brother Geng: "Is the periphery of the tomb wrapped in a layer******** Senior Brother Geng nodded, and Liang Houzai asked him again: "What position has the most ***?" ”

Senior Brother Geng was stunned for a moment and said, "It should be...... The outer periphery of the main tomb is the most, the Iron Dragon King is pressed in that place, and if you want to suppress the yang energy on its body, you must use a large amount of yin energy......"

Speaking of this, Senior Brother Geng suddenly laughed: "Either you are smart, this tomb originally extended from south to north, the main tomb chamber is in the north, *** is also in the north, find the source of yin qi, you will find the direction of due north, you mean that, right?" ”

Liang Houzai: "That's pretty much what it means. ”

I didn't talk nonsense, I quickly walked to the shore and sank the glass egg into the water, and Senior Brother Geng followed me, staring at the glass egg in my hand.

The direction of the glass egg's movement pointed to our left rear, and Senior Brother Geng immediately got up and ran in that direction.

He still hasn't taken off his fins, and when I saw the strange way he walked, I couldn't help but remind him, "Senior Brother Geng, you should take off your fins first." ”

Liu Shangang came up to me, pointed to his head, and asked me in a low voice: "Brother Dao, you said, are there some problems with the people of their Yuxian lineage, and Lao Bao is sometimes stupid." ”

I smiled at Liu Shangang: "You can't talk nonsense about this kind of thing, don't forget, Renya is also in the Yuxian lineage." Senior Brother Geng is her mentor. ”

Liu Shangang pursed his lips and stopped talking.

I stepped forward, helped Senior Brother Geng take off his fins, and followed him to the stone gate.

There were many small holes in the stone door, and Senior Brother Geng touched the door panel with his hand, and said to himself, "Qiankou Gate...... One of the six major living doors of the Little Three Talent Bureau, this tomb is really from the handwriting of the first ancestor? ”

I asked him on the side, "There are still five living gates in this tomb?" ”

Senior Brother Geng shook his head: "No." When arranging the junior talent bureau, only one of the six shengmen was taken. There is a way, you say, why did the first ancestor build such a tomb, if it was to preserve the yin jade, why didn't he put the jade in the cabinet? Isn't it safer there? ”

I said, "The cabinet was not built by the First Ancestor, and in the time of the First Ancestor, the Spiritual Spring had not yet been discovered in the Soul Village. ”

"That's right," Senior Brother Geng said thoughtfully, "I thought the cabinet was also built by the First Ancestor." Have you thought about it, what is the relationship between the grave keeper and our Soul Village? Before meeting Wang Dafu, none of the people in our Soul Zhuang Sect knew about the existence of the Nine Great Tombs, so why did only the tomb keeper know the whereabouts of these tombs? ”

I said, "I also discussed this with Houzai, but we didn't come to a conclusion. Senior Brother Geng, let's hurry up, the Qi field in the tomb is relatively chaotic, and you and Liu Shangang can't stay too long. ”

Senior Brother Geng nodded, he leaned in front of the door, pressed half of his body against a door panel, and pushed it hard twice, but failed to push it open.

I didn't know whether to help or not, so I just watched from the sidelines until Senior Brother Geng beckoned to me: "Help!" ”

A stone gate like this, I can't push it open with my own strength, it's heavy in itself, plus it's standing here for many years, the bottom of the door has sunk into the ground, and it's useless to rely on brute force, so I can only find a way to break it.

I didn't get started immediately, but just asked Senior Brother Geng, "Can this door be demolished?" ”

Senior Brother Geng looked at the door panel, then turned around and nodded at me: "Tear it down." ”

Without me talking, Liu Shangang took out the clay bomb he had prepared early in the morning from the waterproof bag, and Senior Brother Geng became worried as soon as he saw the things in his hand: "Xiao Liu, can you not use explosives, this is an old tomb, and it can't stand the toss." ”

Liu Shangang smiled: "Don't worry, the dose is very small, and the power of these bombs is not as powerful as a bullet." ”

As he spoke, he came to the stone gate, pasted three pieces of explosives on the bottom of the stone gate, and then pulled the lead and beckoned me and Senior Brother Geng to retreat.

Liu Shangang is measured, he just used explosives to blow up a small gap at the bottom of the stone door panel, I saw that the door was already shaking, so I asked Liu Shangang to stop using explosives, and then stepped forward, both hands pressed the door panel and pushed hard, at first the resistance was very small, but soon there was friction on the other side of the door, I could only push the door open a gap, and then I couldn't push it.

At this time, Senior Brother Geng and Liang Houzai also came up, and together with me, the three of them worked together to expand the gap to a width that could be walked through.

The smell of silt at the other end of the tunnel was heavy, so I asked Liu Shangang to measure the air quality, and when he took out the meter, the hands on it immediately deflected to the red area on the dial.

Liu Shangang shook his head, took out a few small gas masks from the waterproof bag, and said to us: "There is a miniature walkie-talkie on it, press this button to speak." In addition, I would like to remind you that the purifying potion in this mask can only last for about four hours, and if you feel that it is difficult to breathe, you can twist this spiral and prepare the potion through the breathing opening. I don't know how long the backup potion will last, though. ”

He said as he handed out the masks to everyone.

At present, we do not know how long the tomb is, only that Qikou is fifteen kilometers away from the bank of the Yellow River, and if the main tomb is located directly below the village, unless we rush all the way, it will not be enough for us to walk back and forth in four hours.

However, if you run fast, the amount of air you breathe will increase, and the purifying agent will inevitably be consumed at a faster rate.

I expressed my worries, and Liu Shangang reassured me, saying that no matter how we gasped, these potions would be enough to last for four hours, but the potions themselves were volatile, and when their concentration was reduced to a certain level, they would not be able to purify the air normally.

Hearing his explanation, I felt a lot more relieved.

When everyone had put on their masks, I took Xian'er's lantern and slipped through the crack in the door.

Worried that the purifier would not be enough, Liu Shangang also carried two compression bottles when he came in, which had some weight and would affect his actions when he carried them, so we also tacitly put all the other bottles in the tomb outside.

On this side of the door, it was indeed a long natural tunnel, as Senior Brother Geng had guessed.

The stalactites hanging from the top of the tunnel were broken in large numbers, and the edges of the fractures were corroded, giving them a rounded appearance.

I feel that the reason why these stalactites broke should not be deliberate by the first ancestor, she probably sent the Iron Dragon King into the main tomb through this tunnel, and these stalactites should have been broken by the huge body of the Iron Dragon King.

Zhu Xuanzhu said that the Iron Dragon King's body was at least half as wide as half of the river, but the distance between the left and right sides of this tunnel was less than ten meters, which was not enough for the Iron Dragon King to accompany him.

As I thought about this, I walked quickly with my lantern, the ground was very slippery because of the moisture, and I walked a little faster now, and my feet often slipped, let alone run.

At first, the person who followed me was Xian'er, but then Liu Shangang came over again, he pressed down the button on the mask, and said to me: "Brother Dao, your steps are too big, and the people behind you can't keep up with you." ”

His voice was coming from a small megaphone on his visor, and it sounded distorted.

I stopped, looked behind me, and saw that everyone else was at a distance from me, except for Liu Shangang and Xian'er who were following behind me.

I said to Liu Shangang: "I'm afraid that the purifier is not enough, let's go back and forth, and the speed will have to be faster." ”

Liu Shangang: "Don't worry, I still have a backup move, and I will definitely be able to let everyone return safely." ”

I asked him, "What's the trick?" ”

Liu Shangang shook his head: "I can't tell you until the critical moment, in short, you just believe me." ”

I didn't say anything more, and when everyone had come together, I slowed down a little and moved on.

I held the lantern of the fox fire, and Liu Shangang kept turning on the flashlight, and the searchlight beam passed through the faint green firelight, casting a spot of light on the ground in the distance.

Since entering the industry, I have also had the experience of going to the tomb six or seven times, and I have walked through a lot of tombs and tunnels, but after entering this tunnel, I have a kind of uneasiness that I have never felt in the past.
