We walked out of the chamber and into a cemetery. The tomb is made of regular bluestone, and it is dry and smooth to the touch. I turned to look at the tomb again, but I saw only the door of the black hole in the tomb, as if a giant beast with a large mouth was about to devour us. I didn't dare to think nonsense, so I quickly turned my head.

The silence in the narrow passage of the tomb was terrifying, and only the sound of our footsteps and breathing could be heard. The passage was very long, as the light of the flashlight was so limited, and we were still surrounded by darkness, but I could clearly feel that the passage was gradually starting to climb upwards, and there were a few steps under my feet from time to time. It seems that the direction of the tomb passage takes us to the upper level of the entire tomb.

I walked very carefully, my heart hung in the air, because in my cognition, the tomb was full of information mechanisms, maybe poisonous arrows or traps, but along the way, we did not encounter any danger, and I felt a little uneasy, because I felt that this seemed too unusual, how could such a large and well-designed tomb have no mechanisms, could it be the calm before the storm, I couldn't help but wonder in my heart.

We walked unhindered for a while, until we came across a stone gate. We used a flashlight to shine a light, the left and right two stone doors are carved from a whole piece of bluestone, which looks very heavy, we pushed it with our hands, and the stone door did not move at all.

The stone gate went up from the bottom to the top of the tomb, blocking our way. However, it is not a perfect fit, with at least two to three centimeters between the two doors and between the upper part and the top of the tomb. But how should it be opened? I turned my head to look at Wen Mo, I don't know why I always thought he would have a solution, but at this time, Wen Mo was frowning and looking at the carving on the door.

I was a little surprised, what is so beautiful about this kind of stone door carving, thinking that I also raised my flashlight to look at the stone door. I used to think that maybe it was carved with patterns or monsters, or maybe it was a statue of a god or a ghost, or even a charm, but I found that I really couldn't guess what the ancients were thinking, because these two stone doors were carved with a seascape and a big fish!

I'll go! This is an ancient tomb in the inland mountains, what does it mean to carve the sea? What does it mean to also carve a fish? Is there more than enough New Year's paintings every year!

I wondered if I had mistaken the engraving, so I was about to ask Wenmo, but he seemed to be lost in thought, and I called him twice and he didn't answer. I had to tell Lantern Xiao what I thought, and Lantern Xiao also looked at the stone carving on the door, nodded, and said, "You read that right, the carving is indeed the sea and a fish, but as for what does it mean?" Actually, I don't know, it's better to find some written records in the tomb to speculate. ”

Lantern Xiao continued: "In this case, I think there are two possibilities, first, the owner of the tomb had a special life experience related to the sea during his lifetime, so there is such a carving after death to express some of his feelings. There is also the possibility that this is an expression of some kind of meaning, and that the builder is making some kind of allusion. ”

"Implication of what?" I asked.

"Implication of what? Hints at eating seafood to go to the beach! Lantern Xiao rolled her eyes, "Damn!" You ask me, how do I know! ”

"That's it!" Wen Mo interrupted the two of us: "Anyway, let's open this stone door first." With that, Wen Mo squatted down and raised his flashlight to shine inside along the crack between the two doors, and then began to take the equipment from his bag.

I was curious, so I followed his example, and looked inside along the crack in the door, and it was also dark inside, and I couldn't see anything, but I could still see that the other side of the door was still such a bluestone tomb. I just wanted to withdraw the flashlight, suddenly something flashed through the crack in the door, I was startled, and hurriedly looked for it again, but I couldn't find it, could it be my hallucination? No! That's a fairly real feeling, and you shouldn't be wrong. But I couldn't confirm it, so I didn't say anything about it to Wenmo and Lantern Xiao.

At this time, Wenmo had already taken out a pure steel crowbar-like thing from his bag, so I asked him, "How the hell does this door open?" ”

Wenmo told me that the carving technique on the guard door should have come from the handwriting of a Tang Dynasty craftsman. This should be a tomb of the Tang Dynasty, and the stone door of the tomb of the Tang Dynasty has a sealing stone and a stone trough on the inside, as long as the stone trough is warped to seal the stone, the door can be opened. I listened and nodded. The opening of the mountain and the construction of the mausoleum are in line with the tomb style of the noble tombs of the Tang Dynasty. But there is one thing I can't figure out, the capital of the Tang Dynasty was Chang'an, which is now Xi'an. Based on the current scale of the tomb, it is speculated that the owner of the tomb must have been prominent during his lifetime, but since his status was so high, why did he have to travel thousands of kilometers to the Qilian Mountains, which were relatively desolate at that time, to build a mausoleum? Maybe the ultimate goal of this place is not to build a mausoleum? What is the purpose of such a huge project?

I suddenly thought of another question, in fact, this is also the question I have always wanted to ask, who is Wenmo? Why are you here! When I think of this, I can't help but look at this young man, who is very sophisticated and steady, who is extremely familiar with the tomb, and who has very good skills. What's more, unlike ordinary tomb robbers, he doesn't seem to have much interest in the burial goods here, obviously he didn't come to steal the artifacts, but had other purposes. I wanted to ask Wenmo this question several times, but I held back, because I knew that even if I asked, he would definitely not answer, but it would make everyone feel embarrassed and estranged. Besides, what we need is for him to be able to get us out safely, and as for his purpose, it doesn't matter to me.

I watched as Wenmo slowly inserted the crowbar into the crack in the door, groping for the sealing stone. I held my breath and looked carefully, but suddenly, the stone slab under the feet of the two of us sank, and I didn't have time to react, so I chuckled in my heart, "It's over." But next to me, Wenmo had already somersaulted and reached out to grab my clothes, and pulled them up, the reaction was fast, and the agility of the movements was simply amazing!

We stood up and looked at the fallen bluestone slab, only to find that the slab had not completely fallen, but had only sunk by about thirty or forty centimeters. It doesn't seem like it's a trap, but if it's not a trap, it's a trap. "Oops, we've triggered a trap!" I said, "Everyone, be careful! ”

We were preoccupied with our watchfulness, and at the same time, we all heard a sound, the sound of something rolling, the sound of a ball not too sleek, rolling on a plank. We hurriedly looked around, fearing that there would be some danger suddenly. At this moment, from the top of the tomb tunnel, I don't know where it was, something suddenly dropped. It was dark in the graveyard, and the flashlight couldn't keep up with the speed at which the thing fell. With a snap, the thing fell to the ground with a crisp cracking sound, followed by a strange smell that permeated the air.

We turned on our flashlights and followed the sound back, looking in the direction we came, only to see a broken porcelain ball, scattered on the ground, and a black liquid flowed out of it, and this strange smell was emitted by these liquids.

"Cover your mouth and nose, beware of poison!" Wenmo reminded. Lantern Xiao and I hurriedly held our breath and withdrew far away.

"What the hell is this! Gas bombs! ”

"There were biological and chemical weapons in the Tang Dynasty?"

"Shut up! Listen! Wen Mo waved his hand to remind us that when Lantern Xiao and I listened to it, a sound of rustling gradually approached, and in the extremely quiet environment of the tomb, this sound was particularly obvious. Gu Newt! "I blurted out at the same time as Lantern Festival!

"Nope! Wrong! I immediately denied this speculation again, "This voice is different from the voice of the Gu newt just now, this time it is not the Gu newt!" ”

Lantern Xiao's voice changed when she heard it, "What could that be!" ”
