Chapter 383: Sanguang Tomb

Although it had been a whole night, the wind in the cave had not abated, but after a night of air circulation, the smell of rancid mold mixed in with the wind blowing from the tomb had lessened a lot, and the smell was not so pungent.

After a night of wind, the air blowing out of the tomb should be safe, and all the air in the tomb should have been replaced, so Chen Ziyang felt that the gas mask should not be used at this time, so he and Li Bojian only wore dust glasses and a helmet with a headlamp.

By the light of the headlamp on his hat, Chen Ziyang saw that many pieces of soil on the side wall of the thief cave that had been blown by the wind for a night had been blown down by this gust of wind, and the inside of the thief cave was covered with a layer of floating soil. Although the inside of the cave is relatively dirty, Chen Ziyang feels that these floating soil should be able to help him.

Probably when he had crawled through two-thirds of the hole, Chen Ziyang suddenly stopped, lying there fiddling with something underneath the hole. Li Bojian, who was behind him, was already very nervous, and when he saw Chen Ziyang stop, he thought that he was in some danger, and he was asking Chen Ziyang about the specific situation.

After appeasing Li Bojian, Chen Ziyang continued to be busy there. It wasn't until Li Bojian behind him was a little impatient that Chen Ziyang continued to crawl forward. Li Bojian, who climbed to this position behind him, looked down.

There is nothing special under the thief cave except for the wooden planks covered with broken soil, and I don't know what Chen Ziyang has been doing here for a long time. Just as she looked down at the moment, Chen Ziyang climbed forward two meters more. Li Bojian, who was afraid that she would be left alone in the thief cave, hurriedly followed Chen Ziyang and crawled forward, she didn't want to be left behind.

Although the two of them carried a lot of things, and both of them also had things tied to their ankles, there was a trailer under the oxygen cylinder that Chen Ziyang carried, and the 1oo-meter-long trachea carried by Li Bojian was not too heavy, but the volume was too large and took up some space, so the two of them climbed very quickly. It didn't take long for the two of them to climb to the end of this more than 30-meter-long thief hole.

The end of the robbery hole was not opened, the last time he dug here, Chen Ziyang brought down a large piece of broken soil with a shovel, and after seeing that the robbery hole was dug through, because he was worried that the gas in the tomb was poisonous, Chen Ziyang quickly turned around and climbed out of the robbery hole.

There was now only a hole the size of a football in front of the cave, and gusts of cold wind kept blowing out of it. Chen Ziyang took out the sapper shovel and continued to expand the area of this hole.

At the end of the robbery cave, there was only a thin layer of soil left, so after a few shovels, this hole had been expanded by Chen Ziyang to the size that could accommodate a person to pass through. Chen Ziyang grabbed the side of the hole with both hands, put his head in, and looked left and right back and forth by the light of the headlamp.

The place where the robbery cave is connected is just as Chen Ziyang guessed before, it is a tomb road, but this tomb road is much larger than he imagined in terms of width and height, and judging from the scale of the tomb road, this tomb must not be small.

It is precisely because of this that the robbery cave is still more than a meter away from the bottom of the tomb. But the distance of more than one meter was not a problem, so Chen Ziyang You retracted his head and continued to expand the hole to the same size as the thief hole. Then he stretched the sapper shovel backwards, and with a single force, cut the hemp rope tied to his ankle, and turned over and jumped into the tombway.

The inside of the tomb is relatively dry, and there are no traces left after being soaked in water for a long time as Chen Ziyang imagined. It seems that this corpse breeding place definitely lives up to its reputation, and after being blistered by so much water, it can still maintain this level of dryness, but I don't know where all the water has gone. After pulling the oxygen cylinder out of the tomb, Chen Ziyang took Li Bojian and the 1oo-meter-long catheter together.

The first time she saw Li Bojian in the tomb, she looked back and forth in fear, but after she looked at it for a while, her expression relaxed a little, and then he said to Chen Ziyang: "Are you really sure this is a tomb?" I can't see any traces of a tomb here, it's not the same as the tomb in the movie, it's all soil, isn't it just a cellar? ”

Originally, Chen Ziyang was still impressed by Li Bojian, and he didn't expect this woman to recover from her nervousness in such a short time, but after listening to Li Bojian's words, he realized that Li Bojian felt that this was not a tomb, so she relaxed.

The beam of the headlamps of the two people is relatively strong, and it shines far in this unobstructed underground space, although the end of the tomb road cannot be seen on the left and right, but within the field of vision of the two people, except for a slightly square tomb road, there is nothing else at all, there is not a single brick, and there is not a single tile, no wonder Li Bojian thinks so.

"This tomb is called the Sanguang Tomb, and it has been stolen many times, so it has become what it is now. The cellar can't be dug so long, don't worry, I'm not lying to you, this is indeed a tomb. ”

"What is the Three Light Tomb? I've heard of the three-light policy of the Japanese devils, but I've never heard of any three-light tombs. Li Bojian asked curiously.

"The so-called Sanguang Tomb refers to the tomb left after at least three or more large-scale excavations. Generally speaking, the tomb robbing sects that you are familiar with have their own particularities, such as touching the gold, the captain has the particularity of the rooster crowing but not the gold, and at the same time, taking things from the tomb is three or five pieces, and some other sects also have their own particularities, but that is all in the middle or before.

From ancient times to the present, as long as some powerful people carry out large-scale tomb robbery activities, they will collect all the things in the tomb, otherwise, if only a few things are taken out of the tomb, it will not be enough to rob the tomb at all.

Especially since the warlord melee period of the Republic of China, almost every warlord in that period had something to do with tomb robbery, commanding his soldiers to dig all kinds of large mausoleums, stealing burial goods from them, and then selling them to foreigners in exchange for weapons, ammunition and military salaries they needed.

So from that time on, as long as there was a large-scale tomb robbery activity, basically there would be nothing left in the tomb, and the tomb left after being stolen and dug by this tomb robbery method was called the Sanguang Tomb.

The first light of the Sanguang Tomb refers to the fact that after the tomb was excavated, all the valuable things in the tomb were all collected, including the burial goods or the contents of the coffin, in short, after the first light, there was nothing left in the entire tomb except for a coffin that was opened.

Later, the people who rediscovered the tomb carried out a second large-scale excavation of the tomb, that is, the second light. The main items that the second light steals are the ones left after the first light. This includes unwanted coffins and the bodies in the coffins, as well as some things placed on the side walls of the tomb, such as candlesticks, or some large worthless accessories.

For example, the carved pillars in the tomb, or some other thing. After the second light, the tomb was basically really light, and there was nothing left.

Then there is the third light, and the people who appear in this tomb for the third time will only see that this tomb has become like this, and there is nothing to take at all, but after such a large mausoleum, they can't go home empty-handed, so they set their sights on what the first two groups of people don't want.

For example, the tomb bricks on the floor and side walls of the burial chamber were used to reinforce the burial chamber, or the remaining frescoes, which were also glued down with special adhesive tape and removed. After the third robbery, the tomb became what we see now.

If it is a slightly smaller tomb, after the excavation of the three lights, this tomb looks like an underground cavern, only people who specialize in feng shui can judge the appearance of the tomb from the shape of this cavern, and other people can't see that it is a tomb that once existed. ”

"You seem to know this tomb very well, in fact, I have always wanted to ask you, how did you know that there is such a tomb under this mountain villa."

"Everyone has their own purpose, you don't care about me, let's take what we need, you came here to see if there is a clue to the fire in the villa, and I have other purposes, don't say anything superfluous, let's hurry up, I estimate that the person who is following us is also about to arrive." I even got a big gift for them. ”

"So, where are we going?"

Chen Ziyang looked at the tomb road left and right, and he didn't know which direction to go, but Lao Lu had told Chen Ziyang before that the location of their robbery cave should be to the west of this villa, so Chen Ziyang estimated that it should be right to go west.

But the most annoying thing is the strange magnetic field that exists near this tomb, so that Chen Ziyang's compass is useless. It's okay now, there are only two roads on the left and right, and the approximate direction of the southeast and northwest can be judged from the location of the previous robbery hole, but if the scale of this tomb is very large, and then go deeper inside, it is easy to get lost.

Li Bojian helped Chen Ziyang put the bundled catheter on the oxygen cylinder, and then Chen Ziyang pulled the oxygen cylinder, and the two walked towards the west side of the tomb together.

After a night of ventilation, the air in the tomb is okay, although there are some unpleasant smells mixed in it, but after such air is inhaled into the lungs, it does not give people a feeling of discomfort, so Chen Ziyang took Li Bojian to walk forward boldly with confidence.

This tomb road is very long, and the more he walks forward, the more Chen Ziyang knows that he is not wrong in the direction he is going. Because the further you go, the more and more traces of digging by various tools are left on the side wall of the tomb, and the more obvious it becomes.

Walked to a place in the tomb, Chen Ziyang stared at the traces on the tomb and looked at them carefully, and then he explained to Li Bojian, these traces are new and old, obviously from different eras, which also verifies Chen Ziyang's previous speculation that this tomb is a three-light tomb, this tomb has undergone at least several large-scale excavations, and these traces should be left when the tomb bricks were taken from the side wall of the tomb, or other things.

However, all of these marks have one thing in common, that is, the edges of these marks are relatively smooth. It seems that what Lao Lu said before was right, this tomb was indeed soaked in a lot of water, so these traces became like this.

Even if these marks have been around for a long time, the edges of these marks should not be so smooth. It is only after a long period of immersion in water that the edges of these traces become what they are now.

Looking at these traces, Chen Ziyang shouted in his heart Fortunately, this tomb was relatively strong when it was built, otherwise it would have collapsed long ago if it had been soaked in the water plant for so long. It seems that the soil of the corpse raising ground is very strange, even if it is very afraid of water, but it will quickly drain the water in the soil.

After walking for a while, the two of them finally walked out of the tomb. In front of them was a relatively large space, and Chen Ziyang estimated that there should have been burial goods here. Because there is a wall here that has a lot of excavated marks, and it is also very dense.

However, half of this space has collapsed, it seems that the previous water immersion did cause relatively large damage to this tomb, Chen Ziyang estimated that this is because this is the edge of the tomb, the deeper you go, the larger the space of the tomb, the larger the area of the collapse inside, and the main tomb is likely to have completely collapsed.

Walking to the collapsed place, Chen Ziyang excavated the collapsed earth with a sapper shovel, he wanted to see if there was anything else in the collapsed soil. This helped him judge the geological structure above this burial chamber.

If the earth was mixed with large rocks, it was likely that there was a mountain peak that he could see at the top of the space.

But after digging a few times in different places, Chen Ziyang didn't see what he wanted, and the collapsed thing was nothing else at all except the soil.

During the whole process, Li Bojian has been following Chen Ziyang closely, and even several times, when Chen Ziyang waved the sapper shovel, Li Bojian would come forward and grab the corner of his clothes or his waist. This is a sign of Li Bojian's fear, after all, being in this dark space for a long time, even a man will be afraid.

Because Li Bojian has been clinging to Chen Ziyang, Chen Ziyang is afraid that he will hurt her when he wields the sapper shovel, and he can't dig anything anyway, so he simply won't dig it.

However, Chen Ziyang, who looked back at Li Bojian, shouted badly.
