The hole in the ground has been detoured back to the side of the fire room, and we can clearly see that the top of the fire room is made of long strips of boulders. Since the place was too small and there were not too many people in there, the work of prying the stones was handed over to the four of them, and the rest of us stayed outside, while Gu Wenmin and a few people were preparing lunch.

Finding the right opportunity, Tofu and I pulled Professor Lin aside, and as soon as he told him about the situation, Professor Lin's expression changed, and he said, "I saw that notebook from beginning to end, and there was no treatment for the virus in it, how could this happen, it's not good." He was anxious to walk around in place, and the shaking person was dizzy, and I said, "Uncle Lin, don't walk around, we are looking for you to come to you to think of an idea, but not to let you follow the urgency." ”

Professor Lin glared at me and said, "Can you not be in a hurry?" Of the twelve people in the team, four of them may have been infected with the virus left over from Unit 731, isn't this strict enough?

After thinking about it for a while, Professor Lin could only shake his head and sigh and said, "Now that I'm on the island, I really can't do anything." However, medical research is not what it used to be, and medical research is not more than 60 years ago, and there may be a solution. It seems that we must speed up our actions, return to the inland as soon as possible, and find a hospital to check it out. ”

Tofu and I looked at each other and said, "I wish I had been a human being at that time, and I hadn't become a snake." Lao Chen, I'm going to turn into a snake, will you throw me on the island alone. ”

I said lightly: "For the sake of the happiness of the female snake on the island, I will definitely take you away." "Tofu didn't hear it at first, but when he came back to his senses, he jumped three feet high, and when he was about to settle accounts with me, I had put all my thoughts in the fire room at my feet. Now, the method that Professor Lin said is the only way out for us, and it seems that we must hurry up and not delay it any longer.

After a while, I heard the voice of machine Qì No. 1 from below the entrance of the cave: "It's through, damn, it stinks." A moment later, the four of them climbed up along the horseshoe prints. Said that a stone had been pried open underneath, revealing a rectangular entrance that allowed us to enter. But from below, there is a strong smell of tar, and when you smell it, you will be dizzy, although we have gas masks, but the filtering effect of gas masks is also limited, so we still have to wait for it to blow down.

Soon after the two of them came up, the smell of tar that they described spread out along the mouth of the cave, and the outside space was relatively large, so they didn't feel dizzy, but the smell was really unpleasant. Gu Wenmin said: "If there is really a thousand-year-old fire down here, then there must be a ventilated pores, otherwise there is no air in the fire room, how can the fire burn?" ”

I smelled the dull smell of tar and said, "Originally, there should have been pores, but those pores were probably blocked or destroyed for some reason in the past two thousand years, so the gases burning in this fire chamber have been stagnant in it, and now when the stones are pried open, there will be such a big smell." ”

When Duan Fei heard this, his eyes rolled and he asked with a smile: "Brother Chen, you said yesterday that you would use firepower to help the mountain, but now that there is no fire, won't Xu Fu's back mountain collapse?" Will that make any difference? ”

I shook my head, I had never encountered such a thing, and I didn't want to make inferences, so everyone immediately packed up their equipment, ate and drank, and waited until the strong tar gas below was almost gone, and then they were ready to go to the fire room. Since there were still outsiders on this island, in order to prevent any accidents, we left Carp and Ah Ying to let the wind out, and the rest of them went down to the hole one by one, and arrived at the rectangular entrance that had been pried open.

We were indeed well equipped this time, everyone was wearing gas masks, gloves on their hands, there was no exposed skin on their bodies, and the four people were wearing body armor, even if there were any hidden crossbows in the tomb, they could not be injured. Body armor can't be obtained by ordinary mushroom diggers, but my grandfather told me before that in the past, the older generation of tomb robbers had a lot of special tools used to dig mushrooms, and many of these tools have been lost with the passage of time, leaving only some scattered clues.

For example, body armor, which was also available in the past, was not worn on the body, more precisely called a 'life umbrella'.

What is a life-receiving umbrella? It's a big umbrella, and after it is opened, no matter what kind of hidden crossbow there is, it will be collected by this umbrella, and it is amazing. It is said that it is because a large magnet is installed in the center of the umbrella, and when it is opened, it can suck the dark crossbow with an iron head through, of course, this is only speculation by later generations, and it is not known how that thing was made.

I turned on the flashlight and shone down the rectangular hole, but I saw that it was dark and dark below, and the place where I could see was a huge stone staircase that went down layer by layer, like an upside-down Egyptian pyramid, the distance was not high, only about two meters, and everyone jumped down one by one, and finally entered the interior of this stone building more than 2,000 years ago.

Tofu shone the flashlight down and said, "I don't know how deep it is, I don't see the fire." ”

I said: "The fire should be at the bottom, but now it has probably been extinguished, this place was originally used to build momentum, forming a pattern of three mountain arches, so at the bottom, there must be a passage, extending to the three peaks, one of which will lead directly to Xu Fu's underground palace, what we are looking for is not fire, but the tunnel." ”

In order to save time, I won't say much, and I will continue to talk as I go. The stone platform here is half a meter high, and people have to bend their bodies when they descend the stone steps. This underground building, which has been silent for more than 2,000 years, has the unique simplicity and atmosphere of the Qin Dynasty, and the rough stone steps do not see any ornamentation, but they are layered and spread downward, giving people a sense of endlessness, and in it, we are like a few small ants.

As I went down, I estimated the depth, and it was about twenty meters or so before we got to the bottom. This inverted pyramid, the bottom is square, there is nothing else superfluous, in the center of the position, there is a huge tripod, three meters high, the whole body is pitch black, three-legged ears, engraved with a cloud dragon. That dragon is different from the current five-clawed golden dragon, it has no horns, no beard, no claws and no scales, and it is a relatively early dragon form.

We can't see what the tripod cover looks like above the big tripod, but this tripod is obviously used to raise the fire, and the top cover must be hollowed out, so that the inner fire can burn.

Professor Lin only glanced at it, and said: "It's indeed the style of Qin Shi, but there is something not quite right...... Wu Sidong is a professional after all, in addition to being jealous, he also has two brushes, and said: "It's not easy to build such a big mouthful, you know, this is the territory of Japan, and more than 2,000 years ago, it was still an uncivilized place." ”

Gu Wenmin speculated: "If Xu Fu really brings people to settle down in Japan, then he will definitely open a mine, and it is not impossible to cast such a big ding." ”

Professor Lin nodded and said, "What Officer Gu said also makes sense. As he spoke, he explained that Wu Sidong and Duan Fei took out their cameras to take pictures of the parts of the tripod, this is the style of the archaeological team, even if they can't take things out, they have to keep the photos or rubbings to study and study. While these people were taking pictures, the rest of us scattered to look for the 'fire path' that led to the Three Mountains Mausoleum.

This fire path was not hidden, but stood on the south side, a stone door, the stone door was closed, and it did not move at all when it was pushed, and it was obvious that there was a running stone behind it. However, this stone gate is different from what we have seen elsewhere, the stone gate is not really sealed, there are many holes on both sides, through the holes, you can see the situation behind the stone gate, and behind it is a straight forward passage.

Tofu felt strange, inserted his finger into the large and small holes in the stone gate, and said, "Why are you opening so many holes?" Suddenly, he stared at one of the holes, his eyes unblinking, as if he had found something.

I couldn't help but look at it, but I saw that the hole was about three fingers wide in diameter, and there was nothing special except that the size was different from the surrounding area, so I asked Tofu what he had found. He looked at the hole and then at his crotch, revealing a 'solved case' expression and said, "I see. ”

I didn't react for a while, and I was stunned for a while before I understood what this kid was thinking, and I was almost angry, kicked him open from the door, and said, "You don't listen to the serious things that you usually watch, and you hold Japanese discs all day long, and now your mind is full of dirty thoughts." These holes are the crystallization of the wisdom of the ancient people, with far-reaching significance and all-encompassing. ”

Tofu covered his ass with a look of grievance, and said: "A few holes, they are also far-reaching, all-encompassing, you can pull it, don't you just want to kick me, and you have to find such a high-sounding excuse." The surname Chen I sue you, the rabbit will bite when it is anxious, and the brother will also be the opposite, if you can't say one, two, three today, I will definitely take revenge for this kick. ”

I said, "Well, since you want to listen, then I'll tell you." Look at the holes in this door, what is the order in which they are arranged? ”

Tofu looked suspicious, but he also turned his head to observe carefully, and after a while, his eyes lit up, and he said: "Up and down, left and right, add up to equal ten, the smaller the number, the bigger the hole, the middle is five, and the top is one and nine...... Hey, I think I've seen it somewhere. Tofu pondered for a moment, slapped his head suddenly, and said, "I remember, it's on your grandfather's work notebook, what's it called?" Hetu or Vena? ”

When I was studying with my grandfather's notebook on weekdays, Tofu would occasionally follow along, but he was impatient, and he usually disappeared after a few glances.
