Chapter 45 Roundabout

I was going to scold, but as soon as I heard him say this, I changed my tone and asked, "Is there any way for you to say it quickly." ”

Peanut also looked at the fat man. The fat man, apparently thinking that he had found his place among the three again, coughed dryly twice, and then said, "Have you seen the six chambers in the tomb here?" ”

After the fat man finished speaking, I turned my head to look at the sides of the grave in the corner. It was found that the ear chambers of this branch were significantly larger than those at that end, with three ear chambers on each side of the symmetrical side. Glancing, my gaze quickly fell on the door of the chamber in the middle of our left.

Unlike the other chambers, this chamber is closed by a black iron door. I didn't know much about the details of the tomb at this time, and I didn't care much about it at all, and all my attention just now was on the rock at the end, so I didn't pay attention to it before.

But when I look at it now, I feel that the door is a little glaring, and it looks very abrupt when compared to the surrounding burial chambers.

The fat man continued: "You should have seen the ear chamber outside the corner, the ear chamber here, except for the one sealed by the iron door, I have also looked for it, the three ear chambers on the right are a bit like the arsenal of weapons in ancient times, but without exception, they are all pulled down from the dead man, and I also took the previous outfit there." The two chambers on the left without a door were tattered clothes, and the contents of dead men. In short, everything in these five transepts was thrown there at will. And "

As he spoke, the fat man walked to the front of the black iron door and knocked on the iron door with his knuckles, "This iron door is also very strange, you can touch it." ”

I didn't know what the fat man wanted to say, so I stepped forward and touched the black iron door with my hand. The touch of the iron door is very heavy, as if an iron plate with no gaps has been inserted in the door of the ear chamber. However, other than that, I didn't feel anything strange about this iron gate, so I looked at the fat man: "What's weird?" Isn't it just a fast thick iron plate? ”

The fat man showed a disappointed look at me, "You take a closer look at the black thing on the iron door, if you still can't see the problem, I advise you not to save your father, just run outside and jump off the cliff to die." ”

I scolded the fat man in my heart, but I still looked at the door seriously. At this moment, I faintly felt something, and then I put my hand on it again, and my heart chuckled suddenly.

"This" I was very surprised, and looked at the fat man, but I couldn't even speak.

The fat man nodded mysteriously at me, "That's right, the black on the iron door is fucking paint." ”

It's true, paint is too common for modern people, but because this is an ancient tomb from the Western Han Dynasty, I didn't think about it at all, and this kind of black in front of me is not natural at all. Although I don't know how the paint was made in ancient times, the characteristics of the industrial paint used by modern people are too obvious. The paint on the iron door in front of me was dark and dark, and there was some reflection under the firelight. Even if the people of the Han Dynasty could make paint with the same texture as modern times, after a history of one or two thousand years, it would not be possible for it to be as intact as it is now.

"The color of this paint is actually different from the current paint, but the time is definitely not more than 50 years, and it belongs to the imported goods at that time." The fat man said.

"However, this is an ancient tomb, and even if someone has been here before, then there shouldn't be an iron door here." I was amazed.

Peanut didn't speak, but I saw a very strange look in his eyes, as if he had thought of something more far-reaching.

The fat man lit a cigarette and patted me, "Miss Yuan, thinking about things doesn't have to be so complicated. The armor, weapons, and clothes in the other burial chambers were torn from the dead and placed in a regular manner, and at a glance it was clear that the road was done by later people, and this iron door was first installed in the fifties and sixties, and all the information shows that someone had been here, and that the people who came here were doing something very unusual. ”

Then the fat man turned to the door of the other chambers, "There are dead people's coffins and dead people's clothes, but there is not a single dead man." So, where did he get all this stuff from? ”

After saying the most, the fat man looked at the iron door very meaningfully.

"You mean, behind this door is a place for dead bodies?" As soon as I finished speaking, I felt a chill peeking through the iron door.

"I don't know what to do." The fat man pursed his lips, "However, an iron gate of this thickness, even if you want to get it from the bottom of the mountain, it is not an easy task, since those people wanted to do everything possible to seal this tomb, then there must be a reason why this tomb had to be sealed." ”

A very strange picture suddenly appeared in my mind: a group of tomb robbers from the fifties and sixties crowded into this tomb, holding hammers and other tools, "bells", accompanied by the sound of knocking echoes in the tomb, they closed the iron door little by little.

After a long time, I said to the fat man, "You mean, the problem here is in this door?" ”

The fat man shook his head and said that he didn't know what to do, "Anyway, this tomb road is not simple, it should not be just a tomb road under the main tomb, maybe it has some kind of connection with the main tomb." ”

I understand what the fat man meant, and the connection he was talking about was not the passage that made him fall, but something more internal. Now, there are not many clues left for us, we have to try all our strength if there is any possibility, if the time drags on for too long, let alone to save people, a few of us may still be trapped and die inside.

"Then let's smash this door open and see what's inside." I looked at the fat man and the peanut.

The fat man spat at the iron door, "Do you see what's missing from the door?" ”

As soon as the fat man asked, I began to look for it at the door, and then I found out what the fat man was talking about. "There's no keyhole, there's no lock on this door."

"It's not that there is no lock, but it's an internal lock." Peanut suddenly walked over, he touched the place where the iron door and the wall met, was silent for a while, and then said: "There are at least five steel bars in the iron door, which are directly inserted into the wall, and the switch to activate these steel bars should be inside." ”

"Huh? How is that possible, if locked inside, how did those people close the door at that time? Do you have to sacrifice a person in it? "If that's the case, I think the sacrifice is a little too big, who would be so stupid.

"No, you don't." The fat man said, "Just a golden wire can solve the problem"

The fat man's words made me suddenly realize. He said that the people who use this kind of inner lock want to keep the contents of the door from being discovered. It's not impossible to say that stupid way I'm talking about, but, in general, those people will tie a gold wire or other very thin but very tough rope to the inner lock switch beforehand, and after the door is closed, as long as the gold wire is pulled, the inner lock will naturally close. In the end, only the gold wire needs to be disposed of, so that as long as the door is thick enough, no one will want to enter again.

The fat man continued: "This practice is actually rare in ancient tombs, but all large tombs must have more reliable sealing stones, and the appearance of the locked iron door in this kind of tomb shows that the contents are likely to be some key secrets of the tomb owner, and never want outsiders to know about it." But the one in front of us is the handwriting of later generations, which is even more interesting. ”

"Is there a way to open this door?" I couldn't help but look at Peanuts after I asked.

"Unless it's a mortar bombardment, the three of us will have to wait for ourselves to turn to ashes before we can penetrate it." The fat man said.

"You're just turned to ashes." I've found that when the fat man talks about something other than business, he doesn't talk about it. This kind of person is suitable for working on the front line, if you want him to engage in management, three sentences can make people angry.

"The door can't be opened, but that doesn't mean there's no way." After Peanut finished speaking, we all looked at him. I saw Peanut pointing to the burial chamber on both sides of the iron gate, "It's much easier to cut the wall than to smash this iron door." ”

The fat man's eyes suddenly lit up, "Eh, yes, my feelings were confused before, how did I forget the roundabout tactics of the Maoist countryside surrounding the city." ”
