Chapter 21 is illustrated
"Shaoyi, what are you drawing?" Zhao Jie asked puzzled.
Wang Shaoyi took the branch in his hand and pointed to the "1" line, then turned his head to gesture, and then pointed to the picture and said: "You see, suppose this '1' line represents the hillside, that is, the one in the col. This large semicircle represents the tomb, you see what I painted, look at the bottom of the '1' line, here, according to what Wang Mengmeng said before, where Wang Taifeng started digging the robbery hole, the bottom is not the cemetery, so the starting point of the diagonal line, that is, the position where Wang Taifeng was at the beginning, is directly below this point and the large semicircle has no contact, right? β
"Hmm." Wang Mengmeng nodded in response. Wang Shaoyi said it very carefully, so that people could understand it as soon as they heard it.
"This is also what I suspected before, you said that if you want to collapse, it will not collapse into the tomb!" Wu Liancheng frowned, still puzzled.
"But." Wang Shaoyi suddenly changed his words, "Look at this '2' line again, assuming that it is the thief hole that Su Taifeng and they dug at the beginning, and the two ends of the thief hole just connected the people on the ground with the tomb, so is it possible that they rolled along the thief hole to the tomb?" β
"It's completely unlikely! The thief hole is very small, and generally only allows people to climb in, so how can people roll into such a little space! Wu Liancheng said affirmatively.
Wang Shaoyi looked at her, smiled and said, "What if the space is big enough?" You see, is there such a possibility, Wang Taifeng originally chose a place with relatively soft soil, then it is likely that a hollow area was formed under the robbery hole, and when it was detonated, it caused a collapse, and the soil filled the hollow part below, and then the robbery hole became much larger. β
After he finished speaking, he drew a parallel line below the "2" line, and continued, "So, is this tomb road big enough now?" β
The others stared at the figure for a while, their frowning brows gradually stretched, and Wu Liancheng's eyes widened suddenly, and his mouth suddenly opened.
Wang Shaoyi did not stop, but continued: "In this case, Wang Taifeng and his party just rolled down the tomb road, as for the soil on the robbery cave did not collapse, it may be because of the jujube tree, or it may be because of vetiver grass, no matter what the reason, it did not collapse anyway, so they have enough space." Moreover, Meng Meng said that they collided several times when they first fell, could it be that they were hit by tree roots? β
After Wang Shaoyi finished speaking, he tapped the ground with a branch, this statement was reasonable and reasonable, and several other people nodded silently after hearing it.
Seeing that everyone agreed, Wang Shaoyi pointed to the thief hole they had dug before, and explained: "Before, I was worried that you had dug to the place where the collapse occurred, but when I saw you come up, I found that it didn't take long to dig it, and it wasn't so fast. With that, he scratched his head embarrassedly.
"But that's not right, if that's the case, how did Wang Taifeng come out in the first place?" At this time, Zhao Jie suddenly asked a question that Wang Shaoyi did not explain.
Wang Shaoyi took his hand off his head, sighed lightly, and said: "This is also where I doubt, you said a distance of a few meters, I still believe that I can climb out with a hook lock, but this nearly twenty meters away, it is almost impossible to do it." β
"What then? The ropes we brought were only thirteen or fourteen meters. Wang Mengmeng said.
After she finished saying this, the others stopped talking, as if they were a little depressed, the length of the rope was not enough, let alone say anything to save people, and they were stumped when they went to the grave.
Seeing that the morale was a little low, Wang Shaoyi hurriedly said: "Don't be discouraged, no matter what, we have to save it, in fact, the discovery just now also helped us a lot." β
"Huh? How so? Wang Mengmeng, who said that sentence before, made the atmosphere a little cold, and when she heard what Wang Shaoyi said, the whole person looked stunned.
"Have you forgotten that we weren't the first to rob the tomb?" Wang Shaoyi said with a smile, with some ridicule in his words.
"That's right! Why didn't I think that since they were in the tomb, they would definitely dig a robbery hole! Wu Liancheng was also excited, and slapped his thigh and shouted.
This move caused Mr. Liao to look sideways, and he didn't take his eyes off for a long time.
"You've checked everything?" Wang Shaoyi then asked.
"Almost all the places, in fact, I also found a piece of grass here just now, but what I found in this feng shui plate is that there is a tomb on the side of the hillside, so I found an open place to shovel, and I haven't been to the jujube forest you just said, and you can see it when you sit in the open space over there, and we didn't climb up."
When Wang Mengmeng spoke, she compared the vertical height of the mountain col with her hand, as if she was telling Wang Shaoyi about the height difference just now.
"Why didn't you use the Luoyang shovel to frame the shape of a tomb like your grandfather?" Zhao Jie asked puzzled.
Wang Mengmeng raised her eyes and glanced at him, then brought the feng shui plate in her hand to him, and said with a straight face: "This thing has the same effect as that, we are not digging treasures, we are saving people, saving time to find the location of the tomb." β
"Ahem-" Zhao Jie smiled awkwardly.
Wang Shaoyi looked at Wang Mengmeng thoughtfully, she must have been questioned because of her professional field, so she was not so polite when she spoke.
After looking at it for a while, he turned his head again, pointed at the piece of vetiver and said with a smile: "Actually, you still have to start with this piece of vetiver when you go around." Let me make a very simple reasoning hypothesis, such as how did this piece of vetiver come about? β
"According to what you said before, this thing is most likely planted by someone else." Wu Liancheng replied.
Wang Shaoyi nodded and continued: "You think, a piece of vetiver that shouldn't appear here, the most direct result is that the soil here will become solid, and the people who come to dig the cave will definitely choose to avoid this place. From this point of view, could it be that the purpose of the people who planted this vetiver in the first place was to keep the tomb robbers from this place? β
"That's right! For tomb robbers, they will explore the shovel first, and if it is not suitable for digging a hole, they will generally not try more! Wang Mengmeng suddenly realized, and her words were a little excited.
"Hmm." After she finished speaking, Wang Shaoyi pointed to the vast piece of vetiver in front of him again, and then said: "Then let's continue to reason in this direction, it is obvious that under this piece of vetiver, there is a very likely thief hole!" Moreover, this piece of vetiver may have been planted by the naΓ―ve people in order to strengthen the soil layer here!! β
After Wang Shaoyi finished speaking, his right hand was still pointing so far away, the breeze was blowing, blowing a trace of hair, and the whole person faintly exuded a domineering spirit.
Everyone couldn't help but look at him intently.
"Ahem-" was watched by many eyes, and Wang Shaoyi was a little uncomfortable.
The cough brought everyone else back to their senses. Then a group of them began to search in the grass.
The grass was very large, and the leaf poles were still a little cut, and they carefully searched back and forth for more than an hour, and finally found a thief hole hidden by the branches of vetiver in a very secret corner. There was still a little fresh dirt next to the cave.
When I opened the straw stalks, I smelled a faint fishy smell.
This just confirmed Wang Shaoyi's previous speculation. Now it seems that the team with Shen Wuzhi must have known the information about the unstable soil here, even if they were not the people who planted this vetiver. As long as you have modern equipment, this is not a problem at all.
The thief hole in front of them just saved them a lot of time. Before they went to the tomb, Wu Liancheng instructed everyone to divide the equipment, food, and medicine into several bags.
Just as they were tidying up their things, a few dark red clouds crept up in the originally cloudless sky at some point, and when they squinted, they were as bright red as blood, giving people an ominous omen. The mountain wind that had only blown occasionally before would also become more unconsciously, and when it blew through the treetops, it emitted bursts of weird "wooing" people, which made people feel unconsciously hairy in their hearts.
