Chapter 373: Jiang Shang's Mausoleum
After a short break, everyone began to dig again, there were eleven people in this group, and the leading big man was named Liu Guilin.
At noon, an exclamation came from under the pit, "There is red mud." ”
This group of mud-legged people is not a professional tomb robber, and the red mud they shout is actually cinnabar.
"Don't be afraid, with Zuo Zhenren here, thousand-year-old zombies can't hurt us." Zhu Xiong stood up and shouted loudly. It is easy to distinguish whether a person is really lacking or false, if this sentence is changed to Ma Ying, he will definitely say "A thousand-year-old zombie can't hurt you".
"It's really a vain man under the fame, Zuo Zhenren's eyes are like torches, and he is not happy at all." Ma Ying patted his ass, before this, Zuo Dengfeng had predicted that there would be cinnabar below, and now the cinnabar has really appeared, which makes everyone admire him and make him more convinced that there are zombies in the tomb.
Zuo Dengfeng walked to the pit and looked down, and found that the pit had been dug four zhang, and a thick cinnabar appeared below, and due to the age, the cinnabar had shown a dark red. Cinnabar has the effect of sterilization, but the price is very expensive, in ancient times, only the tombs of those dignitaries were used, but the cinnabar used in this mausoleum has exceeded the amount required for sterilization, and it is obvious that it has the intention of preventing the destruction of the highly poisonous bird.
"Keep digging, if nothing else, you should be able to see the clue when you dig a zhang, if you can't do it, it's three zhang. By the way, have you ever tested how deep the tomb is from the ground? Zuo Dengfeng retracted his gaze and asked. The ancients generally advocated five and nine, five is the number of eternity, nine is the number of the supreme, if the burial of five zhang, Jiang Ziya uses the number of eternity, if the burial of seven zhang, then he uses the specifications of the princes and kings of the Shang and Zhou dynasties, nine he will not use, because he has no usurpation heart, will not exceed the courtesy.
"Explore, it's similar to what you said, other places are seven zhang above the ground, and here it is five zhang." Liu Guilin walked over and answered.
"What shape does this tomb take and how big does it take?" Zuo Dengfeng frowned and asked.
"North-south, long, about a hundred steps, this is the north head." Liu Guilin stretched out his hand and gestured.
"You're digging wrong, this is the dome, you should start digging from the south." Zuo Dengfeng shook his head and said, ordinary tomb robbers will go directly to the tomb, but this tomb is different from other tombs, there is definitely an obstacle above the dome.
"The people in the village can see it from the south, why don't we dig from here first, and then talk about it, okay?" Liu Guilin was unwilling to give up the thief hole that had been dug.
"Okay." Zuo Dengfeng pondered for a moment and nodded and said.
Hearing this, Liu Guilin turned around and walked to the side of the pit, shouting at everyone to speed up the excavation.
The cinnabar layer is more than 20 centimeters thick, after removing the cinnabar is the fine soil that has been sifted, the tomb sealing soil of the Shang and Zhou dynasties is not as strong as the glutinous rice sealing soil of later generations, the iron pickaxe can still be thrown away, an hour later, there was a scream from the well, "Pull us up." ”
Zuo Dengfeng frowned when he heard the sound and swept down, the pit was five feet deep, and it came in an instant, and after falling, he found that the two people who were in charge of digging the soil under the pit were standing against the pit wall, and there was a gap of about two feet in the center of the pit, and he fell on this gap at this moment.
"Don't shout, you can't fall." Zuo Dengfeng waved his hand to stop the exclamation of the two, this gap is undoubtedly the dome of the tomb, but this dome is not made of bricks and stones, but an invisible aura barrier, this barrier not only has the role of bearing and protecting the tomb, but also hides the scene in the tomb, looking down at the pitch black.
After a short period of silence, Zuo Dengfeng's qi condensation right hand struck straight down, and under the blow, it was like hitting the copper wall, and the aura barrier did not move at all, but the two people under the pit of the aura qi he sent out covered their ears in panic.
"Go up first." Zuo Dengfeng stretched out his hands and grabbed the two of them and swept up.
"Zuo Zhenren, what's next?" Ma Ying and Zhu Xiong asked in astonishment.
"The dome is protected by an aura barrier." Zuo Dengfeng let go of the two faceless farmers, and took the two of them to rise five feet tall, and this hand directly suppressed everyone.
"You are the number one master, and no barrier can stop you." Ma Ying patted the fart carefully.
"This aura barrier was not arranged by people in the cultivation with aura, but was stirred up by formations." Zuo Dengfeng frowned and spoke, while quickly thinking about countermeasures in his mind.
"Zuo Zhenren, what do you say?" Ma Ying had no choice but to make a plan.
"You two go out, there is a big mountain ten miles to the northeast and one ten miles to the west, you go and see which big mountain has any abnormal animals." Zuo Dengfeng gave an order to the two of them. Previously, he used aura to bombard the barrier, but the barrier did not sink to buffer his strength, but was stiffly endured, which shows that Jiang Ziya borrowed a high mountain as an array when setting up this barrier, and all the force he sent out was borne by the mountain located in the distance. The force he gave was strong, but not noticeable, but the animals could detect the slightest movement, and they would think it was a precursor to an earthquake, and instinctively drive them out of the area.
"Okay." The two happily agreed and turned to leave, with Zuo Dengfeng here, they could only do errands.
Zuo Dengfeng judged the approximate time it would take for them to reach the two mountains through the figures of the two, and then swept to the bottom of the pit again, sending out aura to bombard the barrier below, more than ten times in succession, and then swept out of the pit and waited for the two to return.
It didn't take long for Zhu Xiong to come back first, "The mountain in the west is like a boiling pot, rabbits are running around, pheasants are flying around, and even snakes are coming out." ”
"As I expected." Zuo Dengfeng flashed out, trampled on the mound of dirt in the yard and borrowed strength, looking west and flying. Zhu Xiong hurriedly followed, but he was shocked to find that Zuo Dengfeng castrated like lightning, and he couldn't keep up at all, even the pale yellow big cat could move forward in the air, several times faster than him.
Before getting closer, Zuo Dengfeng's running aura fell, and the mountain in front of him was the largest in this radius of a hundred miles, and at this time, the snow at the foot of the mountain was full of footprints left by animals escaping, as well as a large number of frozen snakes.
"Zuo Zhenren, what now?" Zhu Xiong followed out of breath, Zuo Dengfeng and Thirteen could move forward in the air, he had to run step by step.
"It's useless to know the array." Zuo Dengfeng frowned and shook his head, this mountain peak is extremely huge, Jiang Ziya must have placed a five-element thing in this mountain before his death, this thing does not need to be very big, it only needs to echo with the things in the array, so it is extremely difficult to find, a stone, a copper ball may be the eye of the formation, at this time there is still heavy snow in the mountain, it is no different from finding a needle. Looking for a needle in a haystack has a goal, and at the moment I don't even know what to look for, so I can't find it at all.
After Zuo Dengfeng finished speaking, he rubbed his body and swept back, Zhu Xiong was dumbfounded, and ran over panting, Zuo Dengfeng said a word and went back, he had to run back again.
"Zuo Zhenren, what should I do now?" Back in Yizhuang, Ma Ying has just returned.
"I had no choice but to start digging from the grave." Zuo Dengfeng shook his head and said.
"Huh?!" Liu Guilin glared suddenly when he heard this, and the surrounding farmers were also depressed, it was not easy to dig such a big hole.
"I can't find the eye of the formation. Besides, even if I found it, I wouldn't dare to destroy it, because once I destroyed the array eye, the aura barrier would disappear, and without the support of the aura barrier, the tomb would collapse in an instant. Zuo Dengfeng shook his head and said, while speaking, he was thinking about whether if the tomb collapsed could destroy the mechanism in the tomb, and if the tomb could destroy the hidden mechanism, it would be worth the trouble. But he feared that if the tomb collapsed there would be serious and irreparable consequences, he did not dare to take the risk.
After Zuo Dengfeng finished speaking, everyone was dumbfounded, they didn't expect this mausoleum to be so troublesome, those they met before were all dug up and took things and left, which was not only risky, but also extremely troublesome.
"This mausoleum should be at the level of princes and kings, and the burial items inside are piled up, and the anti-theft organs are naturally extremely complicated." Zuo Dengfeng skillfully cheered everyone up, but he couldn't let them retreat, otherwise there would be no free coolies.
"What are you waiting for, take the guy out and dig it, and after this ticket, you don't have to do it again in this life." Liu Guilin shouted at everyone. Zuo Dengfeng's words did work, he was thinking of the mountains of funeral goods at the moment, and he also thought of too many things, Zuo Dengfeng would definitely not take them all, and the rest was enough for them to enjoy for a lifetime.
"Don't worry." Zuo Dengfeng stretched out his hand to stop them.
"Zuo Zhenren, what's wrong?" Ma Ying asked suspiciously.
"It's nothing, when your junior brother comes back, let's rest for a while." Zuo Dengfeng waved his hand and said. In fact, he wanted to arrange a formation in the outer area that could hide everyone's whereabouts, so that everyone's excavation behavior would not be discovered by the outside world. But he changed his mind and couldn't do it, these people were already extremely afraid of him, and once they set up, they would worry that they wouldn't make it out alive.
After half a pillar of incense, Zhu Xiong came back sweating profusely.
"I still have a few things to do, and I can't stay here longer." Zuo Dengfeng looked around at everyone and said that he wanted to retreat as advance.
"Zuo Zhenren, are you leaving?" Ma Ying was extremely depressed when he heard this, he thought that Zuo Dengfeng had retreated.
"I haven't given up halfway to do things on Zuo Dengfeng, so I don't believe that I can't open such an ancient tomb." Zuo Dengfeng saw that the time was ripe, and changed his words, "But I really can't stay for a long time, or else, Liu Guilin, you go and call all the people who are doing your job in the four miles and eight towns, and dig up the tomb of this ancient tomb overnight tonight, this matter is your abbot, and you will be responsible for distributing some to them at that time." ”
"Okay, listen to Zuo Zhenren, I'll do it right away." Liu Guilin's face was overjoyed when he heard this, in fact, he was afraid that Zuo Dengfeng would die, in his opinion, the more people, the safer.
"You two brothers also take a break, and when the time comes, I will be a helper, I will deal with the powerful ones, and you will come to ordinary zombies." Zuo Dengfeng said to Ma Ying and Zhu Xiong.
"Don't worry, Zhengyi's spell won't be a problem against just a few zombies." Ma Ying smiled and nodded when she heard this, as soon as Zuo Dengfeng appeared, they were like Qi San, and now they finally have the opportunity to show their faces and find a sense of existence.
"Everyone acts separately, pay attention to secrecy, and don't tell anyone else except those who do your job, lest they report to the official and cause additional chaos." Zuo Dengfeng admonished.
When everyone heard this, they agreed one after another, and their faces showed uncontrollable joy.
"I'll go out and run some errands, and I'll be back in the evening." Zuo Dengfeng left the empty wooden box in Yizhuang and motioned to the thirteen guards. He had two intentions in this move, one was to tell everyone that he would come back, and the other was to keep Thirteen out of danger, because he was going to show up in the gendarmerie of the devils in Jinan Mansion and drag those Japanese ninjas to prevent them from going south.
The instructions were in place, everyone went their own way, Zuo Dengfeng left Yizhuang and rushed to Jinan Mansion......
