200 ghost locks

Lin Yi took local materials, used water and mud, and first sealed the crack in the vat with yellow mud.

Then he took out the paracord from his bag, threw it from the top of the coffin, made a sturdy cross buckle back and forth, and then attached the pulley.

Tie the ropes hanging down from all sides to the ends of the sarcophagus.

If you want to confirm your thoughts now, this coffin must be opened!

Everything was ready, and Lin Yi silently recited in his heart, "Heavenly officials bless, there are no taboos!" ”

Jump and jump onto the coffin board of the sarcophagus.

After bowing his hand, he recited the sentence "Raise the coffin and make a fortune!" Then, standing at the top of the coffin, he pulled the paracord and the tail of the coffin board was cocked.

"There's a door!"

The sarcophagus was not sealed.

Lin Yi took out the gas mask from his bag and put it on, holding a candle in one hand and a corpse money in the other, and then looked into the coffin by the faint candlelight.

Although this sarcophagus is very large, there is really no body in it.

It's an empty coffin!

Seeing this, Lin Yi's anxious heart finally fell into his stomach.

This proves that his previous assumption is correct, that this is a tomb that has not yet been officially completed.

From this, Lin Yi speculated that the reason why the owner of the tomb placed the coffin properly first was that he should want to learn the form of Buddhist "tank burial" and reshape his golden body before entering the funeral.

Since there is no corpse, there is no possibility of opening a "big zongzi".

Lin Yi let go of his hands and feet and lifted the heavy coffin board as soon as possible, and was suddenly a little disappointed.

There is neither Lu Shang's own clothes here, nor the "Qingzhou Ding", one of the "Nine Dings".

There weren't even any funerary objects, just a stone box that looked inconspicuous.

This stone box is about a meter square, and the weight is very overwhelming.

If Wang Qiang is still here, it is most appropriate for him to do this kind of work.

It's a pity that Lin Yi can only do it himself now, first put the coffin lid aside with the take-off and landing device of the parachute rope, and then tie the stone box with the parachute rope and then lift it out of the coffin.

The outer layer of the stone box is carved from a single piece of stone, and there are no patterns around the body except for the traces of chiseling.

There is a very small gap in the middle, which divides the stone box into two parts, and in an inconspicuous position, a "flute" ornamental mark appears.

"Dizi" is Han Xiangzi's magic weapon, and it is also a kind of "Dark Eight Immortals".

Since it was a mark left by that senior, it must contain something very important.

Lin Yi took out the sapper shovel and opened the outer layer of the stone box along the slit, and inside it turned out to be a round cast iron hollow ball, the size of an adult's fist.

The iron ball is surrounded by dozens of delicate chains.

Each chain was of varying length, one end attached to the cover of the base of the crate, and the other end protruding into the hollow gap of the orb.

If you don't look closely, this thing looks like a sea urchin covered in thorns.

Lin Yi recognized the year of this thing at a glance - an object from the early Tang Dynasty.

And it's also a trap lock.

It's similar to the one outside: the Eight Treasures Turning Core Lock.

The mechanism of this lock is a bit like the "tooth carving set ball", which is commonly known as the "ghost work ball".

It is a very complex ivory carving process.

Take a piece of ivory and polish it into a ball.

Then use a carving knife to open several windows in the outermost layer, and peel off the outer layer from the inner wall to form a ball on the inside.

And so on, when these spheres are shaped in turn, they begin to carve delicate ornaments and patterns with tools on each layer of spheres.

When this craft was transmitted to the Qing Dynasty, skilled craftsmen were able to carve more than 20 layers of ghost work balls, which was a unique in the world.

In the Tang Dynasty, this craft was only a prototype.

However, when used on a cast iron lock, it is not as delicate as carving ivory.

After figuring out the principle of this hollow iron ball, it is not too much of a problem to open it.

This kind of heart-to-heart lock needs to be opened from the innermost.

Open one layer and the chain linked to the base cover will be unfastened.

When all the chains are unfastened, the lid will be opened.

As for what is inside, it is unknown.

Lin Yi took out the silver needle, made two picks in three strokes, wrapped them around his two Emei thorns, put the candle on the edge of the stone box, and began to concentrate on unlocking.

This lock is not like the one outside, and Lin Yi needs to find the so-called hint by himself.

As long as it understands the structure of this lock, it is not difficult to open it.

The only difficulty is that the locksmith needs to be very careful and have enough patience.

Once you accidentally touch the outer mechanism, there is a layer of lock, and the lock can no longer be opened.

Lin Yi only opened the innermost layer of locks, and he was already so nervous that his forehead was sweating and his heart was beating faster.

At this time, he has to force himself to rest, calm himself down, and must not be in a hurry, lest he be overwhelmed by "anger", and then split into another self, and then approve the lock in a fit of anger, then it will be completely over.

After resting for a while, Lin Yi picked up the pin again and opened the chain of the penultimate layer.

The live broadcast equipment has been on Wang Qiang's body.

A group of netizens in the live broadcast room could only watch from a distance, blurry and blurry, and couldn't see what he was doing at all.

The "Xiangjiang Trio" watched them escape from the ice room, hated them so much that they smashed two mobile phones.

Now, though, they're starting to gloat again.

The Southern lineage has always intersected with Siamese Buddhism and various Southeast Asian religions, as well as Western religions.

So when they learned that Lin Yi and they were trapped in the "Three Poison Caches", they couldn't wait to open a bottle of red wine to celebrate now.

And in the old mansion of the Bai family in Shangjing, the two old men were still chatting unhurriedly, but they looked at Bai Lu in a hurry, and they couldn't wait to get into the screen to help them.

There are a total of nine layers of this "ghost lock", and each layer of Lin Yi is like dismantling a time bomb, cautious and careful.

Also be careful to keep your emotions in check.

The nine-layer chain was dismantled for more than an hour, and the clothes on Lin Yi's body were already soaked with sweat.

Finally, I heard the sound of the outermost chain falling on the lid of the stone box.

There was a "bang", and the cover of the stone box came loose.

Lin Yi gently picked up a corner with the Emei thorn and aimed this corner at the open place.

This is all the experience summed up by the predecessors of the gold door with their lives.

These inverted "craftsmen" often did not die in the traps of the tombs, but in the hands of the "Ming Vessels".

Lin Yi held the candle and probed carefully, but there was no poisonous mist floating in the stone box, and no hidden weapon was released.

Only then did he boldly approach and slam open the cover.

It contained two things:

A brocade box less than two feet long, and a tortoise shell engraved with words.
