180 Marks on the masonry (for follow-up, for tickets)

Lin Yi looked down and saw that this raised masonry was not conspicuous, and it was about a centimeter or two taller than the other bricks.

Coupled with the darkness around it, no one would notice the bulge at all.

Even if you notice it, you will think that it is the result of the disrepair of the bricks.

But on this piece of masonry, there is a mark that seems to be deliberate: a Taoist hairpin used by Taoist priests to pull their hair in a bun.

This hairpin is carved diagonally into the raised masonry.

The pointed end is aimed at the upper left corner, and the tail is aimed at the lower right corner.

Seeing this mark, Qian Sheng couldn't help blurting out:

"Could this be a sign?"

In the mausoleum of Li Maozhen, the Qin king of the Tang Dynasty mentioned by Qian Sheng before, a whole piece of bricks and stones was unearthed to form the "Seven Stars of Celestial Phenomena".

Because since the pre-Qin era, because the ancients believed in and followed the ritual system of "death is like life", they began to show all things in the universe in various forms in tombs, and the celestial chart is one of them.

This is a kind of funeral inheritance, and there is not much special about it.

However, in the mausoleum of Mrs. Li Maozhen, the unearthed "celestial map" not only has the pattern of the Big Dipper, but also hides an indicator mark carved on the masonry.

What is even more coincidental is that the location of this mark is located on the top of the mausoleum.

As long as you drill down the robbery hole according to this position, you can avoid the stress structure of the entire treasure top and successfully drive the robbery hole into the main tomb.

Later, archaeologists concluded that this mark may have been made by the workers who built the mausoleum at that time.

Because of these famous figures, the burial goods in the mausoleum were extremely luxurious, in order to prevent the tomb site from being leaked.

The people who participated in the construction of key parts of the tomb were often executed or buried together.

These craftsmen may also know that their lives are short, so they simply give a hint to the later tomb robbers, which can be regarded as helping them out of their bad breath.

Therefore, seeing the masonry engraved with a hairpin in front of him, Qian Sheng immediately thought of the guiding stone in the "Mausoleum of King Qin".

But the problem is that the "Celestial Star Map" is in the same place as the tomb.

In addition to the two rows of stone statues and a Shinto in front of them, there was only this white marble lotus seat and this statue of the Buddha standing in the sky, and there was no trace of the existence of the tomb at all.

Wang Qiang rolled on the spot, supported his body with his hands and feet, took off the gas mask on his face with one hand, and shook his still dizzy head.

The medicinal powder of snake-eyed cistanche really works wonders.

The puffiness of Wang Qiang's mouth and nose has completely dissipated.

It's just that the face, nose and lips are burned by the splattered scorpion venom, and a layer of skin has fallen off, and it looks like a burn.

"Master Wang, you are awake! Do you know how dangerous it was just now? ”

Wang Qiang frowned and shook his head again, trying to remember.

"Huh? I remembered that the venom of the scorpion sprayed on my face, and just now my face and mouth hurt like a fire, and then my mouth began to lose my intuition, and then my brain became a mess, and the whole person was dizzy, and my eyes were dark, and I was unconscious.

Eh, no, aren't we holding our positions? What, lost? ”

"Don't mention it, your eyes are dark, your head is stuck to the ground, and you are surrounded by this group of scorpions, I and Lin Ye risked our lives to rescue you, but now, we are completely trapped here."

"Fuck, this scorpion is so venomous, so let's do it now. Lao Lin, what are you doing? ”

Wang Qiang turned his head to look at Lin Yi.

Lin Yi didn't pay attention to the Tibetan tailed scorpions that had begun to move again at this moment, but lay on the ground, carefully studying the nine-rank lotus platform behind him.

"The words of the shopkeeper just now reminded me that this mark did not appear for no reason, and I guess there must be some mechanism hidden here."

"Master Lin, I just said it casually, in case I don't find any mechanism later."

Lin Yiyi looked up at Qian Sheng and Wang Qiang:

"Do we still have a choice?"

The three of them were silent at the same time.

In the current situation, any turning point and any clue must be grasped immediately.

Otherwise, they would have been wiped out.

"Okay, then you can find it here, and I'll cover you with the money shopkeeper."

"Well, I've just finished saying what I should say, and there's nothing to explain, I hope the second elder doesn't blame me for being unfilial, in case there is a good one today, I can't give you the second elder a pension."

"Bah, what are you talking about, we haven't planned to take your business yet, believe Lao Lin, give him some time, let's go on the two brothers!"

While speaking, Wang Qiang took out a flat bottle of Erleizi from his clothes, bit the cap of the bottle, forcibly endured the stimulation of the alcohol on the wound, tilted his neck and went down to a third, and then handed it to Qian Sheng.

Qian Sheng is a bit clean, but now he doesn't care so much about life and death.

I also blew two big mouthfuls on this bottle.

Then he put the wine bottle beside Lin Yi.

The two took out some fire-starting objects from their bags, wrapped them around the sapper shovel, and poured them with fire oil to make two blazing torches and held them in their hands.

Holding a torch in one hand and a shovel in the other, he drove and patted with a beating, not ambiguous at all.

Lin Yi was still groping carefully under the lotus seat, and Wukong was on the side to help him hold a flashlight.

The position to which this hairpin refers is the lowest part of the front of the lotus seat.

Picking up the loose soil between the lotus platform and the ground, and while putting his hand in, Lin Yi's face showed a look of surprise.

In between this gap, there is actually a metal pull ring.

But no one knows what the consequences will be after this tab pull.

Perhaps a door will suddenly appear for them to enter and hide from the pursuit of these tailed scorpions.

There may be a more powerful mechanism like the upper echelons, which will make them lose all hope of survival.

Lin Yi couldn't help but ask himself: Is there any other option than to pull open this hoop now?

If he wanted to hit here, he simply turned his heart sideways, closed his eyes, and stretched out his hand to pull it violently.

I only heard a "creaking" series of sounds in my ears.

A lotus leaf of the lotus platform stretched outwards and then split in two from the middle, revealing an object contained in a stone letter.

The whole body is forged from brass, and there are two parts.

The top is like a curved lock, and the lock is wearing a chain the thickness of a little thumb, and the end of the lock leads to the inside of the lotus platform.

Underneath is a scale-like device with an engraved pattern, each layer of copper divided and closely connected.

Seeing this thing, a term immediately appeared in Lin Yi's mind:

"Eight Treasures Rotating Core Lock!"

This kind of thing is said to have evolved from the "trick", similar to the educational toy that is now played: the Luban lock.

The Luban lock can only be regarded as a toy with a delicate structure.

The object in front of you has the basic function of a lock, and from a structural point of view, it is obviously more difficult to unlock than the Luban lock.
