Chapter 11: The Blue-Eyed Blue Bat
After Jingxiu finished speaking, Xiang Ji nodded seriously and said, "It is worthy of being an archaeological expert, you can see it at a glance." ”
Jing Xiu returned the ancient book to Xiang Ji and asked, "So now this bronze door in front of us is forged mixed with the elements of the meteorite?" ”
"I don't know exactly what the situation is, but I know that as long as you enter this bronze door, everything that is charged will be unusable." As he spoke, he pointed to the headlamp on his head and continued, "Including our lighting equipment. ”
Hearing this terrible news, I am also the first two big, if there is no light, then what are we looking for, let's pack our things and go home and sleep early.
I also sighed in my heart. "I didn't expect that the Qin Dynasty more than 2,000 years ago, actually invented this kind of anti-theft means, which can make people hallucinate, and can also interfere with the current high technology, look at this bronze door at least has a look of dozens of tons, it is unrealistic to want to open it, only from the underground or bypass, then the real problem will come out, there is no electricity, there is no light source, do you want to use torches."
It seems that there is a problem in front of us now, but Xiang Ji's next move is to destroy my three views. I saw him slowly put down his equipment bag, and then he made a whole fuss, and took out all the charged light sources, and then I noticed that he had three extra kerosene lamps in his hand.
It's the kind of style that is very old black and gray, with kerosene at the bottom, a transparent glass cover in the middle, an exhaust hole at the top, and then a handle, as long as you pull the pull ring at the top, and then the glass cover in the middle turns, the wick will be exposed, and the lighting can be done if it is ignited and restored to its original state.
I'm a little skeptical that Xiang Ji didn't come from the fifties and sixties and put this old antique out, and it was a miracle that the glass cover didn't shatter when he was fighting with the corpse blood rat just now.
I saw Xiang Ji skillfully leak the wick, and then he felt around in his pocket, but he didn't touch anything, turned his head to me and said, "Sanmu bring a lighter, I don't smoke and don't have that thing." ”
The corners of my mouth twitched, I took out a pack of Nanjing cigarettes from my jacket pocket, took one and lit it with Wang Ba box, and took a puff before throwing the lighter over, but then I thought about it, I had more lighters on my body, so I took out two and handed them to Jingxiu and said, "Just in case, kill yourself." ”
Jingxiu took the lighter, but she didn't give up, but instead trained me. "How many times have I told you not to smoke, do you know that smoking in public in Beijing now is fine~~"
Then she talked a lot about the dangers of smoking, such as lung cancer, coronary heart disease, etc., and in the end, I felt like I was committing a crime, and I consciously snuffed out the cigarette butts and promised not to smoke again, so she gave up.
As we spoke, Xiang Ji had already lit the three kerosene lamps, and then took out the small bottle of liquor and said to us: "This is my own preparation of burning ethanol, which has a better effect than kerosene, don't underestimate it, but it can be used for several hours." ”
Then Jingxiu and I also began to sort out our equipment, took out all the equipment that used electricity, and put it aside, maybe we will still be able to use it when we come out. Seeing that we were all ready, Xiang Ji didn't talk nonsense, and was the first to get into the thief hole, followed by Jingxiu, and I was the last to go in.
There was no strong light, only a small kerosene lamp in his hand, and the light suddenly dimmed, but in this absolutely dark environment, the lighting effect of the most faint light was still very good.
As soon as I entered the cave, I began to look at the passage, which may have been dug by my great-grandfather, and saw that the green bricks on it seemed to have been blown out of gunpowder, which looked uneven, but the soil below was arranged in a very regular manner. I know this way, this is a very famous fish scale pattern in the tomb robbery world, it is dug out with an ordinary shovel, but how to dig is very knowledgeable.
First of all, when the soil is dug out of a circle, and when it reaches a certain time, it begins to dig in the direction you want to go, and when digging the channel, it is not a random digging, it is necessary to dig out the shape of the two sides and the middle is slightly larger, and the surrounding veins are also arranged according to the shape of the fish scales, this method is not only fast, but also the channel dug out is also very strong.
But this fish scale pattern technique, not the average person can learn, even I can only dig a half-hanger, to the middle part, can not maintain the appearance of fish scales, digging out of the thief hole can not last long, if I want to dig in the channel I see, then at least another ten years of practice.
The passage is not long and only about five meters, and when we came out, we found that the bronze tomb door was also two meters away from this exit, so this tomb door was at least three meters thick, which was already a great masterpiece in terms of craftsmanship at that time.
Just as I was observing the tomb door, Xiang Ji suddenly said seriously: "Be careful, don't bang these statues." ”
I turned my head and saw that on both sides of the corridor were rows of pillars, all of which were stone sculptures of bats with no end in sight. "It's strange, behind the tomb door is the corridor, there shouldn't be anything placed here, how can there be so many stone statues, or bat-shaped."
Jingxiu also agreed with my point of view and said: "What Sanmu said makes sense, bats belong to yin, which is a symbol of evil and greed, how can they appear in ancient tombs, which is contrary to traditional tomb science." ”
I took a few steps closer to get a closer look at the stone carving, but suddenly I stepped on something under my feet, made a "click" sound, lowered the kerosene lamp and saw that it was some broken stone shells, and looked up to see that the stone bat on a pillar had disappeared, and I thought. "Maybe it's because of the long time, it broke by itself."
After walking a few more steps, I found a complete bat and took a closer look, and found that this kind of bat was carved from bluestone, and the whole was amber-shaped, but their eyes were blue-green, and they looked very strange under the light.
Suddenly, I was covered in sweat and hair and stood upside down, screaming "ah" and fell straight back, but also thanks to Xiang Ji behind me to help me, so that I did not fall on all fours. However, I didn't realize that the sudden yelling in the tomb would scare people to death, and pointed to the stone bat and said with difficulty: "They are alive, I saw its eyes move." ”
These words immediately frightened Jingxiu and Xiang Ji, if this is really alive, then looking at the number here, we should commit suicide as soon as possible, so as not to be torn to pieces and suffer alive. But after waiting for a while, not the slightest vision was found, and both of them breathed a sigh of relief.
Jing Xiu complained angrily: "You are a three-wood, are you dazzled, they are obviously stone carvings, even if they are vivid, they are stone carvings, don't scare yourself." ”
After experiencing the shock just now, Xiang Ji quickly calmed down and said seriously: "There are no absolutes in everything, I know that a kind of bat is preserved by resin, which can be kept from rotting and dissolving for thousands of years, and if you release them through some special means, they will be as alive as before." ”
I also got back to my senses, and said angrily, "Camera, you're talking about mummies." ”
Just when my words were just spoken, there was a cracking sound of "Click~~" in my ears, just like the sound of the ice breaking, and if I listened carefully, I found that the source of the sound was these stone statues.
The faces of the three of us were instantly frightened, knowing that this was going to be a bad thing, and we didn't know who shouted "Run!" We spread our feet and ran forward, and the sound in our ears became louder and denser, but I didn't care so much, just stared at the light in front of me and ran all the way.
