342 Yongdao
Han Daring turned around and looked at the entrance of the cave that he climbed up, the entrance of the cave was inclined and extended upwards until more than ten steps away in front of the Qingyu Gate, and the entrance was surrounded by some smooth pebbles, which were the smooth and round stones that he touched when he came up. It used to be a small pool, but it's now dry. The passage that everyone climbed up was originally the waterway at the bottom of the pool.
He thought to himself that even if there was water here, the huge green jade gate would definitely not be able to transport it up from the narrow waterway. Unless the jade material used in this green jade gate was originally this underground mineral deposit, it was directly excavated and carved into two gates here.
He shone his flashlight around, and as far as the light could see, the pool turned out to be at the bottom of a huge spherical cavern. The cave is the size of a theater, and the sound of coughing and chattering is reflected in the cave, and the echo is unusually distant and ethereal.
The flashlight shines on the wall of the cave, and although the wall of the cave is uneven, it seems to have traces of artificial excavation, but the surface is very smooth. Han Daring walked in the cave, and the light swept by, and the cave wall could reflect bright lights.
When the light shone on the west side of the cave wall, I saw that there was a huge depression in the cave wall, and there were many traces of knives and axes in the depression. He walked to the hollow and gently tapped the wall of the hollow with a shovel, only to hear the sound of "empty" on the wall of the cave, and the sound was ethereal and pleasant.
Mei Ruohong also walked over and transmitted the flashlight on the cave wall, only to see the light shining into the cave wall and spreading out on the cave wall, but there was a lush green light, which shone on the cyan glass. It's just that there are more impurities in the texture of this cave wall, but the light transmittance is far less than that of real glass.
Mei Ruohong Road:
"Looks like this cave is a vein of green jade! The green jade gate was built with local materials! ”
Han Daring said:
"This is probably an underground river connected to an ancient river channel, and the pools and waterways are naturally formed. Originally, the space of the pool was narrow, but it was later chiseled into the wall and built the door that made it so large that it has such a large space now. ”
Han Daring walked to the green jade gate again, illuminated the two heavy jade doors with a flashlight, and saw that the location covered by the jade gate seemed to be the entrance to a cave. The two jade doors are slightly rough, but they still chiseled up and down the edges of the shafts.
The door shaft is embedded in a stone hole carved out of the edge of the opening, and it looks a bit like the courtyard gate of the old compound. The stone hole embedded in the door shaft is the location of the drum stone at the courtyard gate. At the edge of the cave behind the Qingyu Gate, except for the position where the stone cave was hewn out, there are artificial traces, the rest of the place seems to be naturally formed.
Wang Weihan looked at Yumen and couldn't help but admire:
"With such a heavy jade gate, how did the builders complete the excavation and retrieval here, and how did they assemble it? The hardness of green jade is extremely high, and it is extremely difficult to carve small pieces of jade, but I can't imagine that someone takes such a huge jade material to carve and chisel the door, which is really amazing! ”
Han Daring said:
"It seems that this project requires a lot of manpower, but I don't know when the construction of this Qingyumen is?"
At this time, Chen Feiyang asked:
"The person who came down before is not here, has he already opened the door and entered?"
Han Daring used a flashlight to shine on the crack in the middle of the jade door, although the door was crudely built, the crack in the door was not very large, only three or four fingers wide. The flashlight shone through the crack in the door, and I saw that it was dark inside the crack of the door, and I couldn't see what was going on inside.
It's just that the half-human-high position at the crack of the door seems to have some scratches, as if someone has used a stick-like or strip-shaped hard object to penetrate into the crack of the door.
Ye Ling came over and saw these traces, thought about it and said:
"Maybe it was the Nail Key!"
"Crutch Key?"
Han Daring asked.
Ye Ling nodded and said:
"Hmmm! It's a tool used by tomb robbers to open the door!
It is to use an iron rod, bend it at a right angle, and complete an arc at the other end. As long as you put this kind of nail key into the gap of the tomb door, and hook out the tap stone of the top door, you can move the top door stone open, and the locked tomb door will be opened! ”
Fan Tong was still stroking the Qingyumen, he looked up at the Qingyumen, and asked casually:
"These two jade doors are so heavy, it is estimated that it will take a lot of effort to push such a heavy door!"
No one paid attention to Fan Tong's words, Han Da'er had already walked straight to the Qingyu Gate, stretched out his hand and pushed towards the door!
The two green jade doors looked heavy and abnormal, but they didn't expect that Han Da'er seemed to only use a little force, but the jade doors had slowly opened inward.
Chen Feiyang exclaimed:
"Master, you have so much strength!"
Mei Ruohong said:
"In fact, although this jade gate is heavy, it is not difficult to push! You can see that the door shaft and the stone cave are polished and smooth, and it only takes a little forward force to slowly push the green jade door open.
When Sun Dianying excavated the Dongling Tomb, except for the outermost tomb door was blown open by explosives, it is said that there are some heavy stone tomb doors inside, and it is not difficult to push after removing the tap stone! ”
Han Da'er said, his arms were about to push the Qingyu Gate open with a little force.
Mei Ruohong pulled his sleeve, and Ye Ling also said:
"Big brother, be careful, maybe there's some mechanism in there!"
Fan Tongyi listened to the mechanism, and was so frightened that he hurriedly took a few steps back, and said again and again:
"That's right, that's right! I've heard that there are mechanisms in the tomb, and as soon as you enter, there will be rockfalls, sand, and arrows piercing your heart! ”
Wang Weihan said:
"This place is more like an ancient ruin, not an ancient tomb, and there should be no traditional anti-theft mechanism! Besides, this jade gate looks very old, and a few of them are hundreds of years old, and for such a long time, there are really mechanisms like falling rocks and sand, and now they are all invalid.
Machine crossbows and dark arrows and the like, not to resist the erosion of time, the environment here is cold and humid, if there is such a mechanism, it must have been rusted and damaged, but it is just an empty decoration! ”
Han Daring said:
"Even if there is a trap, the people who went in front of them are all gone!"
As he spoke, he pushed his arms inward, and with a "squeak" sound, two huge green jade doors moved in response to the sound and slowly opened to both sides.
As soon as the door opened, a gust of wind suddenly hit the face, Han Daring hurriedly asked everyone to retreat, everyone retreated a few steps, and stretched out their hands to cover their mouths and noses. Prevent contamination of the door by filth.
Everyone waited for a while, but they felt that there was only a fresh breeze on their faces, but they could smell only a little grass mixed in the wind, and then there was a damp musty smell, and there was nothing other than that.
Han Daring used a flashlight to shine inside, only to see that behind the Qingyu Gate, there was a narrow stone cave road, beyond the flashlight, it was pitch black, the light was shaking, and there seemed to be layers of mist in the air, as if the humidity was very heavy, and it was even more deep and dark.
Although he didn't think there would be any mechanism in the corridor, it was always right to be cautious, so he held a flashlight in one hand and secretly clasped a few iron chopsticks with the other, and if there was really something abnormal, he would immediately activate it.
Han Daring took the first step into the road, and the place where he landed was very hard, and it didn't seem to have any mechanism. He took a few steps forward, turned around and shone behind the jade door, and saw that there was a tenon behind the jade door, and a blue jade stone bar next to it was crooked to the side, leaning against the stone wall of the Yongdao, but it was a tap stone that was opened by the key of the nail.
On the ground behind the jade door, there is a groove hewn out, and a huge green jade ball is placed in the groove, which seems to be a mechanism used to fix the tap stone. After the person who went out closed the gate, the green jade ball rolled down with the inclined groove, retreating the tap stone to the back of the green jade door under the tenon, holding the door up, theoretically speaking, the gate would never be opened.
This corridor is not wide, can only allow three people to pass side by side at the same time, but after entering the Qingyu Gate, not a few steps forward, the top of the Yongdao Cave is getting higher and higher, and then the top of the Yongdao Cave has been hidden in the darkness, people walk in the Yongdao, as if there are two high walls on both sides, but you can't see the edge of the high wall when you look up.
Everyone saw that there was nothing unusual when Han Daring walked into the road, so they all followed closely and rushed in. Everyone is watching the stone wall with a flashlight. The flashlight shines on the stone wall, and there is a faint blue light in it, and it seems that the entire corridor contains green jade veins. The further you went, the stronger the smell of grass became, and the air seemed to be wetter.
At this time, Fan Tong reached out and touched the cave wall, and found that there was a lot of moss growing on the cave wall, which was wet and fluffy to the touch, and this feeling couldn't help but make people a little disgusted.
Han Daring walked in the front, he turned on the flashlight to find a way forward, when the flashlight swept to the ground, he inadvertently found that there were some withered vines on the ground, these vines were dry and abnormal, as if they had been cut off, and they were discarded on the ground at will, which looked very messy.
He bent down to pick up a piece of dead vine, but unexpectedly found that the walls of the cave were full of traces of sharp weapons, and he couldn't help but be puzzled.
Suddenly, there was a "snap" sound, from the darkness above the road, a stone fell, and there were only a few people's footsteps in the silent road, because everyone was wearing mountaineering leather boots, and the soles of the cow tendons stepped on the ground of the road, and only made a "rubbing" sound, so this crisp sound of falling stones made people hear it very clearly.
Everyone looked up, and a few straight flashlights shone upward, and a trace of white mist floated in the darkness, revealing that there was something mysterious and terrifying above that could not be seen.
Okay, but another stone fell, everyone was wondering, Ye Ling heard the sound and identified the position, and had already picked up the stone, but the moment the stone was picked up, he couldn't help but tremble. Because this pebble should be cold, but it is slightly warm, and who has held the pebble in his hand!
At this moment, out of nowhere, there was a sudden sigh and moan, the voice was sad and complaining, in the narrow corridor, it sounded like a human or not, and I don't know what kind of creature came out!
Fan Tong looks like a man, and when he usually rectifies suspects, he has the most cruel and crooked ideas, but he is the least courageous one in this group. Not to mention that Ye Ling, who is not as good as Ye Ling, who has martial arts and walks the rivers and lakes, is even inferior to Mei Ruohong, a lady who is a big girl.
Hearing that sigh, Fan Tong had goosebumps on his body, and the hair on his back was directly subordinate, and he blurted out:
"There are ghosts! Ghosts! ”
Li Huan walked last, closest to Fan Tong, and shouted impatiently:
"What the hell! What are you calling nonsense! ”
At this time, there was silence all around, but there was no sound, only Fan Tong was so frightened that his teeth trembled, and his upper and lower teeth gurgle.
Li Huan's words stabilized the morale of the army, and everyone did not listen to it again, and waited for a long time, but there was no sound in the corridor. Just when Fan Tong took a long breath, thinking that he had heard it wrong, the sigh and moan sounded again!
This time the sigh was louder and clearer than just now!
Everyone felt that the voice was like a person moaning in pain, and they were speechless, only whining, and the sound seemed to come from above their heads!
At this time, a drop of hot and humid liquid dripped from above, impartially falling on Fan Tong's face, Fan Tong reached out in the dark and touched it, and then put it in front of his nose to smell it, but it was a fishy smell, he held up a flashlight to illuminate his hand, and couldn't help exclaiming:
"Blood! It's blood! ”
At this time, I looked up again, but a burst of bloody air came to my face, and in the darkness, a figure broke through the fog and fell straight down, but it suddenly stopped in the air near everyone, just to face to face with Fan Tong!
Everyone was taken aback, and quickly jumped back, the flashlight beam shook for a while, only Fan Tong froze on the spot, and the falling person looked at each other, waiting to see the person who came, but saw that this person's face was withered, like tree bark, the cheeks were concave, the face was tight, the eyes were deep, the eye sockets were pitch black, the eyeballs were only covered with eyelids, only motionless, staring at Fan Tong opposite, but it was a dry corpse!
Fan Tong's legs weakened and then sat down on the ground, his throat and eyes were blocked, and he couldn't even shout a word. Just when he was shaking like chaff, suddenly the dried corpse let out a tremble, and with a shake of his body, he actually opened his mouth and let out a howl, rushing towards Fan Tong!
