Chapter 430: Tomb Maze

Zhu Kaiyang was one of the four sons of the Big Dipper who had a slightly better attitude towards him, Li Yihang received his affection, so he fed him the water in the water bladder to drink, and said: "Sixth Uncle Zhu, you can't die, you wait for me to kill Gordon, and then come up and take you down the mountain." You have to hold on, don't get discouraged, and don't try to go down the rock. After saying that, he jumped off the boulder.

Looking at Zhu Kaiyang's injury, it didn't take long for Gordon and the others to enter the tomb, and now it should be too late to catch up, the four people who are guarding the entrance of the tomb each have a torch, Li Yihang has entered the tomb cave, knows the importance of torches, inserts three behind his back, lights one, and turns over the pile of rubble into the tomb.

It was only at this time that he found that the stones blocking the tomb were large and small, the big ones were six or seven hundred catties up to more than a thousand catties, and there were no dozens of people to help, it was extremely difficult to remove the tombstones by Gordon and Huayuan alone, listening to Zhong Tianxuan's words, there were countless traps in the tomb, and these helpers who were called up just went to be the vanguard and rushed to rush, Gordon was thoughtful, and he thought about everything very carefully and steadily, and he was indeed an extremely difficult character to deal with.

As soon as he entered the cemetery, he was spurted with a stream of dirty and humid air, with a hint of cold, Li Yihang couldn't help but get goosebumps, the tomb was inclined downward, it was to cut the mountain stone and open, look at the surroundings carefully, the traces of artificial excavation were obvious, similar to the mountain road opened by Gordon in the underground of Tiandu Peak, but it was much wider, it could accommodate five people side by side, walking in it without feeling depressed, the lights in the tomb were faint, it turned out that Gordon was fully prepared, brought all kinds of tools and materials to rob the tomb, and placed an oil lamp on the ground every other distance. Li Yihang's heart moved, and he hurriedly got out of the cave, took off the clothes of a person who fell to the ground and put them on himself, and painted his face again, thinking that he could be blinded by them when he entered the cave.

It didn't take long to walk, I heard the voices of people in the tomb, went down and turned a corner, and suddenly saw that the front of the tomb road became wider, the lights were bright, and the people were standing full, and there were about fifty or sixty people in the past at a glance.

The tomb road is sealed here by a huge stone, these big bluestone strips are several times larger than the stone strips used for ordinary cooling, the small ones have more than 200 catties, the big ones are afraid of more than 300 catties, they are stacked together along the tomb road, the helpers called by Gordon are some first-class masters on the rivers and lakes, but in the face of this stone wall it is not powerful, fortunately there are many people who are masters of robbing tombs, they immediately chiseled out a moon-shaped hole in the stone, and passed through the thick rope and iron chain with a thick rope of the arm, everyone grabbed the iron chain rope and forcibly pulled out, the strength of forty or fifty Jianghu men who started their hands together can be imagined, but they pulled several times in a row, and the stone wall did not move at all。

The stone bars are very tightly bound to each other, leaving a gap that cannot even be inserted into the thinnest blade, so that the structure can be pulled out only by manpower? Gordon pondered for a while and said: "You listen to my command, and I say that you will pull you together." Seeing that Gordon had killed Zhu Kaiyang of the Beidou Sect in a moment, everyone was extremely convinced of his martial arts, and said in unison: "Yes." ”

Standing in front of the stone wall, Gordon took a deep breath, suddenly shouted, slapped his palms against the stone wall, and shouted, "Pull!" The men listened to the order, shouted, pulled the rope hard, the stone wall trembled and swayed under the strong palm of Gordon, the men pulled this one, and actually pulled the stone out of a foot, everyone was overjoyed, Gordon slapped again, this stone bar was pulled out half, and then pulled out easily again, a stone bar was pulled out, and the other stone bars had room to turn, and it was much easier to pull up, and after a while, the stone bars were all pulled out and placed on the side of the tomb.

After Lu Dingzhao buried his friend, he felt that the tomb was not safe enough, so he asked someone to chisel these dozens of huge stones and lie vertically to block the tomb passage to prevent thieves, but the tomb passage at this entrance is still far from the underworld gate of the underground palace, and I don't know how many portals there are.

Li Yihang watched from the side, and thought to himself: "The tomb designed by Young Master He Ling, Lu Dingzhao, is heavily protected, and he didn't even see the tomb door, so he spent so much time and energy on Gordon, but I am afraid that there are endless traps and dangers waiting for them in the tomb." ”

Drag away the stone, and the dark tomb passage of unknown depth is presented in front of you. Gordon instructed everyone that there are indispensable arrangements in the tomb, and they must be careful and not careless.

Most of the people called by Gordon this time were good tomb robbers, some of them carried lime and herbs on their backs to deal with the poisonous insects and poisons in the tomb, some of them carried huge shields and anti-hidden weapons and arrows, and some of them carried a large bundle of thatch on their heads, and twelve layers of animal skins were hidden in the middle, which were all soaked with water.

Gordon said in a loud voice: " Friends, brothers, the tomb of Qin Tianshu of the Beidou faction is in front of you, if you enter the tomb smoothly, you must not touch and move, you can only move the things that accompany the burial under the condition of absolute safety, everyone came this time not for the property, but for the martial arts secrets in the tomb, if there is really something, how to divide it, let's still according to what we said, gather the secrets, and take them to the bottom of the mountain to ask people to copy more than 100 copies, everyone has a share, and it will never be in vainThe thieves said in unison, "Yes." ”

Hua Yuan continued: "If someone does not compete or secretly hide the secret book according to the agreement, and messes the rules, then we will not be polite, don't say that we don't talk about brotherhood." Not only is this a secret, but the treasures in the tomb are also confiscated, and they will be divided after descending the mountain, and they must not be killed in the tomb. ”

The thieves said in unison: "All the listeners are instructed by Brother Gao." ”

At the sound of the order, the thieves raised torches and oil lamps and walked together to the depths of the tomb. Li Yihang was also mixed in, and followed step by step. He had entered the ancient tomb twice, and he had a clear idea of what he was doing, looking around as he walked, paying close attention to the terrain, and escaping in time if something happened to him.

Recently, there has been a lot of rain in the mountains, and there is a lot of seepage in the cemetery, and the ground is extremely slippery, and there is a ticking sound in the silent and dark distance. The tomb has been closed for a long time, and the filth is thick, making it difficult for everyone to breathe, and they are worried about the poisonous insects in the tomb, so everyone walks very slowly. At each stage, the lamps on the wall are poured with oil to leave the light to illuminate, and if the fire is found to be difficult to burn, it will stop and allow the air to circulate.

For example, after walking seven or eight feet, the tomb road gradually widens, but there are too many people entering, and it is still very difficult to breathe, and the lights are very dim, and there is a possibility of extinguishing at any time.

At the end of the front was the tomb door, and a man slowly walked forward, pushed the tomb door, and found that the two tomb doors were made of huge stones. After confirming that there was no danger, Gordon and everyone walked to the tomb door to check carefully, and did not find the mechanism to open the door, a man said: "This stone door was locked inside when it was closed, if you want to go in, only brute force can be knocked open, Gordon nodded, sent someone back to carry two long stones of more than 400 catties back, and arranged for people to take turns to hit the stone door with the stone bars. In less than a quarter of an hour, the big stone door was knocked open with a crack, and everyone was elated, and after a few more hits, the mechanism in the door failed, and the stone door could finally be pushed, and with the rusty sound of creaking, it was slowly pushed open. Everyone stared at the tomb door, not knowing what kind of world it was. But as soon as a crack was opened in this stone door, a woman's scream could be heard inside, and the woman's screams sounded particularly thrilling in the tombway.

As soon as the stone door opened, I could hear a few howls inside, like the terrible howl of a female ghost, Hua Yuan, Gao Deng, Li Yihang and some men in the martial arts, who had not participated in the tomb robbery before, at first hearing this, they were so frightened that their hearts trembled, some of them were timid, and they were almost scared to pee their pants, but the tomb was crowded with people, and there was nowhere to escape even if they wanted to.

Experienced tomb robbers knew that the unusually sharp sound was not a female ghost screaming, but a strange sound caused by the rapid squeezing and circulation of air.

After a long while, the group of thieves, each with their weapons, crowded in front of the stone gate at the end of the tomb, and under the command of Gordon, they pushed open the heavy stone door. As soon as the city gate opened, it had already touched the anti-theft mechanism, and at the same time as the strange sound sounded, Ye Xijin, a well-informed leader among the thieves, waved his hand, and the man who pushed the door hurriedly withdrew.

At this time, the sharp whistling inside was even higher, and dozens of black water arrows, wrapped in a strong fishy smell, shot out from the doorway, crashed into the grass shield, and suddenly burst out of the white miserable burning smoke. It turns out that there is a mechanism behind the tomb door, and once the tomb door is opened, it will trigger the "poisonous dragon spraying water" behind the door. This kind of mechanism is filled with venom or strong acid and corrosive liquid in the pipe, and if you are not prepared, you will be sprayed in front of the tomb on the spot, and if you get a little bit of it, it will rot the muscles and bones, and penetrate deep into the body without any cure.

Gordon and Ye Xijin knew that in the tomb built by Lu Dingzhao, there must be an ambush against thieves. The straw used to keep the arrows against the water was soaked in water, and dozens of leather were contained in it, and each layer of leather was sandwiched with mud, which did not burn in case of fire, and it was difficult to penetrate in water, and those thick acid-like venom, although fierce, could not penetrate the simple-looking turf shield, and the grass shield used up the venom in the poisonous dragon's tongue mechanism. After another meal, there was no movement behind the tomb door, presumably because the mechanism had been exhausted. Gordon scolded: "Your ancestor Lu Dingzhao, thinking of so many ghost ideas, put this extremely vicious poisonous water to give us a meeting gift, if it weren't for Brother Ye's rich experience and knowledge like a god, even I, Gordon, would have to fall for you." "He is a sword-maker who fights iron, and he is also very good at dealing with traps, and it is because he knows how powerful it is, so he called the masters of tomb robbers on the rivers and lakes to come to help. Now as soon as I open the door, I encounter this poisonous water, and I don't know what will happen behind the door.

Ye Xijin, as the leader of the tomb robbery, naturally did not dare to be careless, Qin Tianshu's tomb must be more than this organ ambush, the brigade must not act rashly, at this moment, we must first send a few people who dare to die to explore the way behind the tomb gate.

He glanced at the brothers behind him and said in a deep voice, "Whoever wants to go into the tomb will be rewarded with two shares." Everyone knew the danger, no one made a sound, Ye Xijin called a few times, but no one responded. Gao Deng said: "If you are willing, please take a step, and the secret of martial arts will be picked first." ”

Everyone listened, and they didn't know if it was agreed, dozens of people took a few steps back, leaving only four people, including Li Yihang, standing in place, everyone retreated, which meant that they stood up, Li Yihang scolded in his heart: "Fuck you, what's going on?" The four stood in front of everyone in a daze, you look at me, I look at you, and their faces changed color.

Gordon smiled: "Very good, very good, there will be brave men under the heavy reward, you have to be careful when you go in, don't touch the mechanism with more hands, and stop coming out immediately when you see the situation inside." A person next to Li Yihang was so frightened that his face was like earth, his body trembled, and he said intermittently: "Brother Gao, I'...... I'm afraid, change ...... Others and others go to ......" Gordon's right hand grew violently, lifted him up and shouted: "Brother Yuan, you yourself stood up and said that you wanted to go in, how did you go back on your word? I Gordon hates people who don't count when they talk, if you don't go in, I will kill you immediately." ”

Ye Xijin said: "Brother Yuan, I didn't regret taking medicine for the path I chose, I didn't necessarily die if I went in, I would die immediately in front of my eyes if I didn't go in, why not break in if you are a man, if you come out safely, the secrets inside are all yours." In the future, you will call for wind and rain on the rivers and lakes, and don't forget the support of Big Brother Gao. The man surnamed Yuan was so frightened by Gordon, he dared to say anything more, so he had to nod and agree, and the other two didn't want to go in, but the matter had come to this, so it was his turn to say no? Li Yihang said secretly: "I have no chance of winning if I start with Gordon now, so I have to go in and break through." He lowered his head and didn't speak, scolding that these damn thieves didn't end well.

The four of them held a shield and grass, carried a pigeon cage medicine bottle, and each carried a torch, and carried their footsteps into the tomb gate, Gao Denghuayuan and others waited in the tomb, and there was no movement in the long tomb except for the sound of heavy breathing, and the sound of pigeons cooing and flapping their wings in the pigeon cage.

Li Yihang and the three of them carefully stepped into the tomb door, and found that the terrain behind the door suddenly opened up, he remembered what Mei Yulong had said, "wide left and narrow right", so he walked on the left, and the other three saw him walking close to the sidelines, so they also followed him, Li Yihang walked in front invisibly, and scolded the three of them in his heart, and stopped to let them walk in front, how did he know that the three of them were better than him, he stopped and the three of them also stopped, and there was no intention of moving forward at all, and turned to the three people: "Brother, it's your turn to go, I'll stay behind." One of the people who followed him said: "Do you like to go?" Another said, "If you don't leave, we'll spend it here." The last person said: "If Brother Gao asks, we will say that you have the heart to oppose him and are unwilling to explore the way." Li Yihang was so angry that his hands and feet trembled slightly, but he couldn't use it because of this, so he had no choice but to hold a big shield and hold a torch to walk cautiously and slowly.
