Chapter 11: The Flip Plate

We all ran into the graveyard, neither of us having time to pay attention to the other, and the bugs scurried after us. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info

The bad old man shouted: "This is a leech, afraid of fire, burn it with fire." ”

Since we have used the light of science and technology for lighting along the way, and there are no torches or anything like that, everyone is a little confused in the panic.

It was the three fat men who were the first to react, pulling the clothes on their bodies while running. As soon as I saw his movements, I knew that he was trying to burn the insects by making torches out of his clothes, and although the special jacket was somewhat useful in the tomb, there was no better way to do it at the moment, so I learned him to take off his clothes and form a ball, light them with a lighter, and reach out to the army of insects.

This leech is a kind of annelid, that is, we commonly call leeches or horses and turtles, mainly living in ponds and paddy fields, its saliva contains natural hirudin, which can play an anticoagulant role in medicine. It lives on a multi-camp temporary ectoparasitic lifestyle, sucking the body fluids or blood of other animals for a living, and there are many records of it in historical materials. But this time the attack on us has clearly mutated, not only sucking human blood, but also eating flesh, and it has been kept in a porcelain bottle for thousands of years and still alive.

After the smell of burning, the bug army did retreat a little, and the speed of the attack on us was much slower. But the special jacket contains some chemicals with very low ignition points, and when it burns, there is only smoke left, and the three fat men and I have to keep lighting it with lighters.

The third uncle saw that we were in a hurry and took off our coats and planned to light them, but the second uncle stopped him and said, "Save a little, you haven't arrived at the main tomb yet." ”

As soon as I thought about it, I had just passed a few tombs and encountered so many things, and I didn't know how fierce and auspicious it would be in the future, so I said to the third uncle: "The second uncle is right, I and the third fat man can deal with this, you hurry forward and see what the exit is." ”

The three fat men and I continued to wave the torches in our hands to drive away the army of bugs, and gradually we became a little exhausted. There were several dead bodies in the graveyard along the way, and I saw that they were still dressed in modern clothes, and they must have come to fight for money, but the situation was urgent at that time, so I couldn't care so much. The scorched insects emitted a fishy smell, which choked me to tears, and I suddenly regretted refusing the third uncle's help. Looking at the three fat men next to him, although he was sweating like rain, he still insisted, and suddenly felt a little ashamed.

Just when I was intertwined by these two strange emotions, the voice of the third uncle came from the front: "Beichen, hold on a little longer and find the entrance." ”

I looked back and saw that at the end of the tomb was a stone door, with humanoid stone statues standing on both sides, with a slightly open mouth, and stone beads inside, and the stone door was carved with strange patterns, which were lifelike.

At this time, the army of insects has been burned by me and the three fat men There is not much left, and the rest of Xu is taboo The torches in our hands dare not come forward, the three fat men gasped and said: "I'll go and open the door when I see the tomb, I want to tire the fat grandfather to death." ”

But Shi Zhu is one left and one right, and for a while he didn't have time to tell which side was the real organ, and the bad old man said: "China has a saying that men are superior to women since ancient times, and the left is respected, and since this Song sleeve is Qin Hui's concubine, it is naturally the stone bead on the right." ”

I thought to myself, this is not scientific, what can this ancient design mechanism have to do with the social status it is in, and besides, the Song Sleeve I know is not a woman at all.

Before I could stop it, a guy turned the stone bead in the mouth of the stone figure on the right, but what I expected didn't happen, I didn't expect the bad old man to be right, and there was no hidden weapon around to shoot out suddenly.

As soon as the three fat men and I lit the clothes in our hands and threw them at the insects, we followed them into the stone gate, and as soon as we entered, the stone door "snapped" shut. Feeling the safe atmosphere, the whole body relaxed, and the three fat men sat on the ground and exclaimed, "I'll go, how the hell is this formed?" ”

I sat on the ground with him and observed my surroundings, and if I hadn't seen it with my own eyes, I couldn't believe that there was a slender pit in the middle of the mountain that resembled a canyon, and this pit was almost five meters wide, extending out on both sides to separate the two stone gates, and there was a wooden suspension bridge in the middle for people to pass through.

In front of the stone gate opposite us is an open space, about the size of a small basketball court, and there are also two stone figures at the stone gate, and there are also stone beads in the mouth.

After resting for a while, the three fat men shouted to hurry up, saying that this place is so mysterious, there must be a lot of gold, silver and jewelry on the other side of the stone gate.

On the contrary, the old man is not in a hurry, he said that it has been almost a day since we went to the tomb, and we have to rest and adjust first.

The wounded and dead along the way were all his men, and the tomb was indeed a hard work, so naturally no one refuted his statement, so we rested in the same place.

I ate some compressed biscuits indiscriminately and leaned against the stone wall to close my eyes to recuperate, the three fat men may have been tired, and they didn't brag like before, and just lay down and fell asleep. In a half-dream, I felt Wu Ming have another headache and tremble, I half-squinted and looked at him, and saw the little brother in black take a piece of black under his nose, he inhaled slightly and turned his head, and smiled at me when he saw me looking at him, and I didn't know if it was true or false in a blur.

After about four or five hours of sleep, I woke up, and because I was sitting, the stone wall was cold and hard, and my whole body became paralyzed, and I had to stand up and move. Seeing Wu Ming waking up early and standing on the edge of the pit, he walked over and asked him, "Are you okay?" ”

He turned his head to me and replied, "It's fine." It's like I'm a stranger to him.

After waking everyone up one by one, I forcefully stuffed some food into my mouth, and I vomited too much before, and my empty stomach felt uncomfortable. The three fat people's typical under-beaten personnel stood aside and said: "Dazhu, believe it or not, with your little psychological quality, you have to eat it from your mouth sooner or later?" ”

I was already surprised by his inexplicable and wonderful way of getting close, so I replied absentmindedly: "Believe, believe, why don't you believe it, what you Xiao Sanye said is the truth, the truth recorded in the annals of history." When he was about to retort again, he said, "Stop, go to your gold, silver, and jewelry." ”

After packing up our things, we walked to the edge of the pit and planned to go along the suspension bridge, but the suspension bridge was too old and a little rotten, and if we walked directly over, we might fall into the pit.

The second uncle stopped the guy and said to the bad old man: "Elder Li, it's better to be cautious, I'm afraid it's not appropriate to go directly." ”

The bad old man had a self-righteous attitude: "Could it be that the subordinates trained by my Yan Luo Li himself are so useless?" ”

The second uncle arched his hand helplessly and said, "Please." ”

Who knew that when the guy walked to the suspension bridge, the bridge deck suddenly flipped over, and dozens of long sharp weapons instantly grew on the bottom of the deep pit, penetrating the guy's body, and I clearly heard the sound of the sharp weapon penetrating the body.

The second uncle snorted lightly and said, "Evil, don't you know, Elder Li?" It's a chain flipper. ”

The bad old man's face was pale, and he stood aside without saying a word.

The chain flap is a kind of hidden weapon mechanism in the tomb, which is a wooden plank on the top of the pit, and the middle of the wooden board is tied with a balance-shaped shaft, and a small ball is connected below. When a grave robber steps on a plank, one end of the board will fall due to the uneven distribution of the two ends, and the person will inevitably fall into the cone of the pit, and the sharp tip of the knife will penetrate the chest and internal organs of the grave robber, and the chance of crawling out alive is zero.

During the Republic of China, a farmer in Qingzhou, Shandong Province found a large mound when he was in Gentian, and a flap with a shaft was found in the tomb, and there was a pit under the board, and the pit was densely covered with sharp blades. At that time, there was a lot of water in the pit, and when it was drained, it was found that the skeletons of two people were lying on their backs and lying in the sharp blades, and there were shovels, hammers, ropes and other tools around them, which were obviously carried by the tomb robbers.

But the tomb was eventually excavated, and there were few artifacts left in the tomb, and the cleaners found that there were two wooden ladders connected under the chain flap, and the wooden ladders had decayed but could still see the shape, which was undoubtedly a solution that the tomb robbers came up with later. As long as the wooden ladder is put into the tomb tunnel, and the tomb robbers go down the ladder, the mechanism will naturally fail to help.
