Lin Qi was also happy, but after thinking about it, if the tomb below was not old enough, wouldn't he be too happy, so he asked, "Master, how old do you think this tomb can be?" Zhou Xing opened the fire fold, compared the bricks, up and down, looked and looked, touched and touched: "According to the teacher's estimate, it should be the tomb of the Spring and Autumn Period, and it is estimated that it should be about 1,500 years." ”

"Then what are you waiting for, master, let's dig it." Lin Qi picked up the shovel and was about to dig, but he heard Zhou Xing say: "Dig a grave, three or four strong young men will have to spend a whole day, this is an ancient tomb, I don't know if it is the nobleman, who can use this kind of flower brick, it is not ordinary, you and I are old and young, if you really want to dig it up for ten days and a half months, you can't see anything." ”

When Lin Qi heard this, he said dejectedly: "After working for most of the night, you are busy in vain?" ”

Zhou Xing shook his head and said: "Of course it won't be in vain, in vain, you must know that we are not robbing tombs, there is no need to find those intact ancient tombs, even if they have been stolen, as long as we are left with three coffin nails, you look at this tomb, there are flower tiles exposed, which means that the burial is not deep, this kind of ancient tomb that you can find, those who rely on tomb robbery to eat, it is impossible not to find it, this may be an empty tomb." ”

"It's an empty tomb, and we can't dig it."

"Silly boy, since it has been stolen, there must be a robbery hole left by tomb robbers, let's go down the thief hole, don't we."

When Lin Qi heard this, he immediately got up and said, "I'll go find the thief cave." Carrying a shovel to look around, Zhou Xing looked at him and shook his head, smiled, and felt that the apprentice's surname was in a hurry, even if it was a thief, it was not so easy to find, and he couldn't bear to splash cold water on him, so he let him look around.

Zhou Xing picked up the compass, looked at the surrounding terrain by the dim starlight in the sky, looked at the tiles under his feet, walked to the south near the bottom of the hill, poked down with the iron drill in his hand, poked the iron drill down, if the ground was hard, he didn't care, and then poked down after a distance, so tossed a stick of incense time, the iron drill suddenly emptied, Zhou Dian's eyes lit up and squatted down, pushed the floating soil around, revealing a thief hole.

The thief hole is not big, enough to accommodate Zhou Xing and Lin Qi to go down one after another, Zhou Xing hurriedly shouted: "Apprentice, I have found the thief hole for the teacher." ”

Lin Qi searched for a long time, but found nothing, and was a little depressed, when he suddenly heard the master calling him, he ran over with a cheer, and saw that the underground robbery hole was almost ten zhang away from the flower bricks, and asked suspiciously: "Master, this is a little far away, can it really lead to the underground tomb?" ”

"Silly boy, digging far has its own reason for digging far, these tomb robbers have been thinking about this all day, is it not as good as you? But I don't dare to teach you these things, lest you learn badly. ”

Lin Qi said with a smile: "With the master watching me, there is a chance to learn badly." Zhou Xing heard Lin Qi say this, his expression darkened, and said, "Don't say it's useless, hurry up and go down to get the coffin nails and go back." ”

Zhou Xing lit an oil lamp he brought, led the way in front, Lin Qi followed behind, and the two rats crawled inside on all fours. Lin Qi's eyes were completely dark, and he couldn't see anything, so he could only follow the master to move in little by little.

After half an hour, Lin Qi'er heard a sudden oops from the master in front of him, and then fell down with a bang, Lin Qi was startled, and hurriedly pouted his ass and rushed forward to grab the master's feet.

"Master, master, are you okay?" Lin Qi couldn't care about the pain of the shelf on his body, and hurriedly shouted loudly.

"It's okay, it's okay, it's still alive, oops! But I broke up my old bones......" Hearing Zhou Xing's voice, Lin Qi relieved himself and asked, "Master, where is your oil lamp, light it up and see what kind of place this is?" ”

Zhou Xing lit the oil lamp, and looked around through the faint light, and saw a few twisted bones lying on the ground, and the clothes were already rotten, but the iron drills, shovels, and the like around him were still there, and they should be the tomb robbers who dug through here, but they didn't know how to die here.

Lin Qi was looking at the novelty, and suddenly black smoke came out of the surrounding walls, and a fishy smell suddenly rose, Lin Qi felt that his eyes were dark, and his whole body had no strength anymore, and he fell softly, which Zhou Xing suddenly dragged him over, stretched out his hand and pasted a yellow talisman on the top of his head, and read in his mouth: "Wude Tianzhu, front and back." Green dragon and white tiger, left and right exorcism. Suzaku leads, so that I will know him. Heaven will help me, and the six C. will remove the scabies......"

In the sound of the incantation, Lin Qi's mind became clear, and seeing that the master half-supported himself to a stone door, Zhou Xing's face was calm, and his voice suddenly became low, reciting some incantations that Lin Qi couldn't understand...... There was a strange noise. The ground began to tremble violently, Lin Qi was shaken to the ground, his face was as pale as dirt, and he couldn't help but think, there was an earthquake?

After the burial chamber shook a few times, the stone door slammed! With a loud bang, Lin Qi picked up the oil lamp that was still on the ground by the master, held it and took a photo, and couldn't help but cry out in surprise. The door to the burial chamber miraculously opened. Inside is another huge burial chamber, which has a neat phalanx, which is composed of hundreds of bronze men and bronze horses. The bronze figures, each life-size, wore old armor and strange hats, and the bronze horses were also lifelike, struggling forward. All the bronze figures are holding copper ge, and the production is extremely exquisite.

In a trance, it makes people feel as if there is a king in iron armor, who is commanding thousands of troops and horses, through thousands of years, and killing from the old days of swords and swords...... Even the earth-shattering shouts of killing are still in my ears.

"Division...... Master, what is this? Lin Qi was dumbfounded and muttered.

"This is a king's underground palace." Zhou Xing replied in a deep voice.

Between the master and apprentice's questions and answers, a puff of black smoke suddenly came out of the front formation, the black smoke first spread everywhere, and then condensed together, and a person came out of it, this person was sixty or seventy years old, looked older than Zhou Xing, had no beard on his chin, was lean, thin, sallow, wearing a very strange hat, and was a dry corpse. said that he was a dead man, but he was pacing in all directions, staggering over, with a great style, holding a yellow silk in his hand, his face was colorless, gloomy and cold.

The old man slowly walked in front of the two of them and stopped, glanced at the two of them coldly, and at this glance saw a chill behind Lin Qi's backbone, as if someone was holding an ice cube behind him, and he couldn't help but have a cold shiver. The old man's appearance was even more terrifying than the corpse of the thief he drove a few days ago, Lin Qi was a little frightened, so he hid behind the master.

Zhou Xing looked vigilant, took out the small peachwood sword, and pointed the tip of the sword at the old man, the old man waited gloomily for a while, before unfolding Huang Juan, and said in an awkward, cold, and unpopular voice: "This king is the sixth son of King Wen Ji Chang, the younger brother of King Wu Ji Fa, and the founding monarch of Cao State. Since the ascension of the king, he has observed the people's feelings, cared for the people, lightly punished the meager endowments, and persuaded the people to cut their posts and level the depressions to build their homes, drain water and divert water, and reclaim land for farming. Emphasis on agriculture and mulberry, teach the people to be polite and righteous, be honest and shameful, and give weekly rituals. The extravagant are thrifty, the inferior are kind, the vulgar are simple, the men and women weave, have plenty of food and clothing, and live and work in peace and contentment. How dare you come to dig up my palace? What's more, my Cao country is not a big country, and there are no treasures in the room where this king lives. Why bother to invade each other with spells? ”

Speaking of this, the old man paused slightly, and glanced at Zhou Xing's master and apprentice again: "If you don't listen to the dissuasion, you will definitely lose both, and you should think twice." After saying that, he flicked his sleeves and was about to go back.

Lin Qi didn't understand what the old man said, but Zhou Xing did, he was secretly surprised, he didn't expect that this tomb was the underground palace of the lord of Cao in the Spring and Autumn Period, and the strange old man in front of him should be the eunuch who accompanied the burial.

But the coffin nails hadn't arrived yet, how could Zhou Xing be reluctant to leave, and hurriedly called the old eunuch to arrive: "Father-in-law, my master and apprentice are not the ones who rob the tomb and dig the grave, but are famous and authentic Taoist priests, and they come here to ask for something, don't want anything else, as long as the three coffin nails are enough, it's not just for us." You must know that there are evil waves in the Yellow River, which have flooded more than a dozen villages on both sides of the river, and if it is allowed to do evil, it will also suffer from flooding. Poor and talented, learned a Taoist skill, for the people, to remove the evil Jiao, there is a lack of three thousand-year-old coffin nails, and I hope the king will give it. ”

These words matched Zhou Xing's demeanor, and he was really righteous, Lin Qi couldn't help but be stunned, he couldn't figure out if the master really thought so, or did he say this in order to coax this old man?

The old lady listened to Zhou Xing's words, and said gloomily: "You wait here, I'll go and reply to the king's order and see what my king says." After saying that, he disappeared, and after a while, the old man passed through the wall like a shadow from the opposite tomb, and showed his figure, holding three black things in his hand, and said: "My king said that there are no coffin nails here, but for your sake of removing Jiao for the people, I took these three copper hairpins on the heads of the warriors of Cao Kingdom and gave them to you, and left." ”

Zhou Xing was overjoyed, the copper hairpin on the head of the warriors of Cao State thousands of years ago must have a fierce atmosphere, and it has been buried in this underground palace for more than a thousand years.

"Thank you, father-in-law, thank you, king." As soon as Zhou Xing spoke, the old eunuch had long since disappeared, and there were three green rusty copper hairpins on the ground.

When the things were in hand, Zhou Xing didn't want to stay in this place longer, so he took Lin Qi to the front three times and climbed out along the thief cave when he came.
