Chapter 45: Out of the Mountain 01
The walls to the southeast are frescoed with frescoes in spring, summer, autumn, winter, and winter, and to be honest, it was common for nobles to have murals in their burial chambers, but it has been the same for thousands of years with the theme of the four seasons.
"Qianjue, there's something behind that mural."
"What's that?" Qian Jue poked her head out of the pile of skulls, with a bunch of keys hanging in her hand, and immediately looked at the wall when she heard my words, "I have checked that wall, solid." ”
The coffin shook slightly, and I knew that this was the owner of the tomb warning us, and I shouted: "The solid one is not necessarily the wall itself, but it may also be the hidden tomb door, you clean up the murals, clean them all." ”
Bai Yun immediately pulled Qian Jue from the pile of skulls to the tomb wall in the southeast direction. Qian Jue started the work cautiously with a tool knife like uncovering the murals of the Tang Dynasty, I looked anxious and shouted: "Don't be so sven, I don't want you to restore it, but destroy it, destroy the murals." ”
Qian Jue's love for the mural is estimated to be more than everything, just at the moment of his hesitation, Jiang Yuan and Bai Yu have already arrived, the hammer and dagger in their hands began to wield, and a large gap was chiseled out in three or two strokes, the wall is very thin, I visually do not exceed five centimeters, and behind the wall skin is a miserable white.
The coffin shook again, and as I stood beside it, I felt something unusual on the platform beneath my feet, and it was sinking.
Since I have found the hidden tomb door, there is no need for me to stand here, while the floating platform is still stable, I immediately climbed down, came to the southeast tomb wall, and when my hand touched the miserable white solid mezzanine, I smiled, and said in my heart that the surname Wu had already known something. At the beginning, he inexplicably told me about his experience, did he have expected that we would be in today's situation?
"Go on. This is the secret door reserved for the tomb back then, let's go quickly. "I took the trekking hammer out of my kit.
After working together to clean the tomb door. Qian Jue suddenly thought of something, and looked at the key in his hand, "This?" ”
I took it and looked closely, it was a bronze key, it had not rusted for so many years, and it was also very strangely shaped, it looked like a miniature version of a mace in my opinion. The serrations are all thin holes and bumps, and in the middle of the tomb door, in the center of the ornament on the chest of this unicorn, a hole is very noticeable.
"It's here."
The keyhole fits the cavity very well, and after a slight turn, the tomb door begins to slowly open upwards, and it turns out that this is a gravity door, which is a gravity mechanism in the entrance tomb.
At the same time as the tomb door opened, there was a gurgling sound in the direction of the coffin, and we collectively looked back. Seeing that the mercury in the mercury lake was rising rapidly, Bai Yu shouted, "Let's go quickly, otherwise the mercury will flood here." ”
I stopped her. "No, it's the pontoon sinking, you see."
As I said. The pontoon carrying the coffin is slowly sinking, and at the same time. The kneeling skeletons also began to move, but they were not attacking us. Instead, it moved in the direction of a mercury lake, and one by one moths jumped into it like a fire, and the whole process was suffocating.
Little by little, the mercury devoured everything on the floating platform, and none of us moved, standing quietly by the tomb door and watching with bated breath everything that happened in front of us, until everything was gone, I exhaled heavily, "Let's go." ”
Raising a flashlight and stepping through the tomb gate, this is an unfinished dirt road, the soil under my feet has a strong musty smell, and within the radius of the miner's lamp, I see that the road under my feet begins to appear gravel, it is the kind of very small ore, I have been in the mine for a while before, so I can still recognize the ore.
Baiyun walked behind me, suddenly grabbed me, and said, "Keep walking ahead, don't care about anything you see." ”
I stopped and looked back at him, "Why?" ”
"This is Dongyuan's vein, I remember, Zhou Bo's old fox once called Dongyuan's 300 million funds to say that he found a vein to be developed, he used some means to get the development right of this project, and then the old man asked me and Aguan to investigate this matter privately, but at that time Aguan was on the verge of emotional collapse, and he didn't care about the company's affairs at all, so I investigated alone, but my connections and authority are not enough, you can access other core internal information of Dongyuan, So my investigation only stopped at the progress of their project. ”
As I walked on, the rubble beneath my feet became more and more visible, and the marks of manual excavation on the walls on both sides became more and more obvious.
"Is this it?" I asked.
"It should be here, the information I investigated at that time was that their project was carried out in general, as if they had encountered some difficulties, the project was stopped, and the mining workers disappeared."
I grabbed a handful of crushed ore from the ground and looked closely, some of them were hidden in a faint green, and some were golden. It's impossible, it's absolutely impossible, I've never heard of these two veins being together.
"You mean that where we are now is the same mine where they mined?"
"Yes, I've always wondered what caused their work to be stopped, and I haven't been able to find the exact location of the mine, and now it seems that they have planned it for a long time, so that we all think that he is really doing this project with manpower and funds, but in fact he is secretly digging up the ancient tombs here."
I laughed, "It's called the guard stealing himself, but he didn't succeed in the end, when they dug here, they found that it was a dead end, so they gave up, and after that, we don't know what happened, and they probably got these slags here." ”
Bai Yun asked, "How can you see it?" ”
I showed him the ore slag in my hand, "Have you ever seen a gold mine and a jade mine together?" Also, if there are veins here. Then why was the crushed ore found under the feet and not on either side? ”
Bai Yun sighed lightly, "Yes, but I also want to thank him, if he hadn't dug this passage, I'm afraid we wouldn't really be able to get out." ”
As he spoke, he also looked back at Jiang Yuan, who had been silent at the back, "Boy, I told you a long time ago, the tomb here is not allowed, you don't listen, you said that if we die here, it is better to go to the ground and fight them, maybe there is a glimmer of hope." ”
Jiang Yuan looked up at him, and his cold gaze made the temperature here drop below zero in an instant, "You die faster on the ground." ”
"You-"
“”
Turning left and right, I finally saw a little light, it was not a light, but the natural light outside, one by one like a mouse drilled out, shaking the soil on the body, sitting on the ground and looking at the environment, the green mountains and green waters are really an excellent feng shui treasure.
Under a patch of green, a touch of green is moving rapidly on the winding snake-like mountain road.
"It's Abin's car." Bai Yun stood up and suddenly shouted.
Jiang Yuan and I also stood up to look, the speed of the car was very fast, but it was not stable, and several times I almost broke out of the fence, Jiang Yuan looked at me and said, "The car is a little out of control, it seems that there is a problem with the brakes." ”
"There was no one in the car." I say.
"No, someone, it's just a dead man."
I saw that Jiang Yuan's expression was very calm when he spoke, and I understood in my heart that whether there was a dead person or a living person in this car, it was not our person anyway, in this case, this car that crashed into the sea has nothing to do with me.
As soon as this thought passed in my heart, I was a little surprised that I had become so cold-blooded when I had become so cold-blooded. (To be continued.) )
