Chapter 163: Weird Emperor Mausoleum
The group ran north for several days without stopping, and stopped until they reached a place where the forest and grassland intersected.
Based on his feelings, Kitano Longyin judged that this place might be close to the Greater Xing'an Mountains.
This place is rarely visited, deserted, and the grass on the ground is lush. Looking from a distance, you can see at the end of the grassland and on the edge of the forest, there is a low wooden house standing alone. From a distance, it is integrated with the trees behind it. If you don’t look carefully, it will be difficult to detect.
The young man surnamed Zhang nodded to everyone, "It's here."
Boss Du squinted his eyes and looked at the cabin, whispering in a broken voice: "Why are there anyone in the house? The forest protection team?"
On the chimney of the wooden house, vague blue smoke was faintly emerging.
Du Lao Er jumped off the horse, grabbed the long cloth bag on the horse's back and shook it, revealing a rifle inside, and slammed the bolt. He was very skillful in his movements. After the bullet was loaded, he raised the gun and aimed at the wooden house.
"Don't shoot!" The young man surnamed Zhang reminded him, "There are the people we arranged inside."
"It's your people again? How many people have you brought in?" Boss Du said with a shaking head. He heard that someone came in to share food, which made his boss unhappy.
"Let's go!" The young man surnamed Zhang squeezed his legs and drove his mount forward slowly, and everyone followed one by one.
Mo Laosan approached Long Yin and gave him a look in a slight look - Long Yin ignored him. In fact, he had already discovered it on the way, and the three brothers of the Du family were carrying guys! But he didn't take it seriously.
It is common for people walking on the underworld outside the northern border to protect themselves with weapons. On the one hand, there are often ferocious beasts in the wilderness, and on the other hand, they need to guard against some bandits.
Although the country has been liberated, there are still some bandits who missed the net in some remote areas. Legend has it that in the depths of the Greater Xing'an Mountains, some Japanese invaders who refused to surrender during the War of Resistance and swear to be loyal to the Emperor to the death. Some herders once discovered that they were appearing like savages.
Everyone walked to the wooden house, and the crooked wooden door opened with a creaking sound, and an old man with a messy body and a mess of hair walked out of it. He rolled his eyes and looked at everyone with a expressionless face.
"This is the gravekeeper we arranged here." Xiao Zhang said, nodded to the old man, and handed him the reins.
"A bad old man, what can he guard?" Du Lao Er murmured, threw the reins at the old man's hand, and turned sideways into the room.
As soon as I entered, I said "Wow".
Everyone went in one by one, and were also surprised at the same time.
The entire wooden house is actually a decoration, without windows, and it is empty inside. There is a simple earthen stove made of mud blocks near the door, and there is some dilapidated cotton wool piled next to it. It must be the place where the gravekeepers spend the night. Apart from that, there is no furniture in the house.
There is a large pit about 6 meters long and about 3 meters wide in the middle of the house. There are more than 4 meters deep at the bottom of the pit. There are two dark red doors on the erected doors, which are closed and look very thick.
Xiao Zhang introduced: "Some time ago, this old man, the forest ranger Lao Liu, was patrolling the mountain and his horse fell into a soil nest and accidentally discovered the ancient tomb. After reporting to his superiors, the archaeological team sent someone to check it and found that the structure of the tomb was very strange. With the manpower at that time, it could not be opened. He could only send people to look at it first, and then dig it after preparing sufficient human hands and tools."
Kitano Hu Xiao carefully observed the wooden house and it was built very sloppy. The broken stubble of the wooden stakes were all new, and you could smell the fragrance of the tree trunks. It seemed that it took only ten days to build it.
He turned his head and asked, "So we are helping the archaeological team work?"
Boss Du laughed: "Help the archaeological team work? They are nothing, what money can I make for helping them work?
Big brother, you are still a little too young. This is obviously Boss Zhang who took the team to do private work before the archaeological team came back. When the authentic archaeological team came, the place had been hollowed out by our brothers. Haha!"
Seeing Kitano Hu Xiao’s face was unhappy, Boss Du touched his bearded man and continued, "We don’t know what you brothers do, but our Du family’s threehu have never done a loss-making business-do you think? Boss Zhang?"
The young man surnamed Zhang smiled slightly, and continued to introduce:
"After the archaeological team dug the door, they tried every means to push it open. The old mage in the team said that he had excavated so many ancient tombs in his life and had never seen such a style before, so he had no idea."
"Why do you need so much trouble to open the door? Just just punch a hole next to you!" Boss Du walked to the bottom of the pit and knocked on the door with his hand. It turned out to be a solid stone door.
Mo Laosan, who was touching and watching, shook his head and said, "It's useless."
Turning to see Boss Du’s face, he hurriedly smiled and said, “Boss Du, I don’t mean that! I know that your Northern Sect is good at making holes, but this ancient tomb is extraordinary. I guess that the entire tomb is sealed with huge rocks, and it is definitely impossible to get in by digging holes.”
Xiao Zhang nodded and said, "Mr. Mo guessed correctly. At that time, the archaeological team had also drew thieves around, but they all encountered huge rocks one after another, so they could not move forward at all."
"Then let's fuck it - you said it earlier, let's get more explosives!" Du Lao Er complained. This guy is also a bad temper.
Mo Laosan shook his head, "It's useless. This door seal stone is at least half a foot thick, not to mention the surrounding Vajra wall. Putting explosives is just a blow-up nest..."
"Just you say so much!" Boss Du turned his neck and beat Mo Laosan around.
Xiao Zhang said: "Mr. Mo is right. If you use explosives, it will be too loud. If you collect so many explosives at once, you will be noticed by the relevant departments - and it is too late now.
It has been more than half a month since the discovery of this tomb. Because the place is too remote and excavation is troublesome, the archaeological team does not pay attention to it, so we gave us time, but I guess they should take action now - we don’t have much time."
Boss Du squatted by the pit and nodded repeatedly, "Yes, yes, the night is long and the dreams are too long, so let's finish it quickly. But how can you do this? The stone gate is probably weighing thousands of pounds, and only we are, we may not be able to push it."
After saying that, he looked at Mo Lao San and said, "You just talked about it as soon as you come in. You know so much. You just talk about how to go in and fight. You can't tell me, brothers and I will kill you!"
Mo Laosan was frightened by him, and he looked at Xiao Zhang helplessly and asked for help silently - everyone was responsible for robbing the tombs in the end.
Xiao Zhang ignored him at all, as if he had agreed with Boss Du's proposal.
Mo Lao San had to bite the bullet and said, "Then I have to guess boldly, but if you guess wrong, don't blame me..."
"Quick chicken steak said, look at you showing off."
Mo Laosan cleared his throat: "Hehe, in our tomb robbers, all tombs from all dynasties have their own characteristics. As the saying goes, "Qin burys the ridges, Han burys the slopes"..."
"Damn it, you're serious, don't drop the book bag from me." Boss Du grabbed a handful of soil and sprinkled his face.
"Cough cough" Mo Laosan, who was standing at the bottom of the pit, was scattered with his head, wiped a handful of soil on his face, and continued to speed up his speech: "Tombs from all dynasties have their own characteristics, but this tomb, judging from the current situation, is not related to the tomb structures of all dynasties.
From the perspective of Feng Shui, the terrain and direction chosen are not reasonable, and it is difficult to judge the dynasty."
Mo Laosan said and secretly worried Xiao Zhang, "I learned about the situation with Mr. Zhang before. They had made holes in several directions around them, and all encountered the Vajra Wall. In terms of the direction of the holes and encountering the Vajra Wall, the underground palace is very large. Such a large underground palace can still afford such a sealed stone. That is not something that ordinary tombs, tombs and tombs can afford. Only imperial tombs and bedrooms have such status."
Boss Du stood up when he heard this: "You said we dug up the emperor's tomb?"
Seeing his excited eyes shining, Mo Laosan said timidly again: "It is not necessarily true that there are very large mounds of imperial tombs - many mounds of imperial tombs are entire mountains - but the tomb we encountered is flat on top, not like there is a mound. Judging from the sealing gate below, the underground palace should not be very deep..."
Boss Du scratched his head and said, "Hey! It's a weird thing. Which dog emperor is idle and running away to dig such a broken pit?"
Kitano Longyin, who had been silent all the time, said: "Brother Mo speculated that the reason why this tomb is so strange is that it is not buried inside - this is the tomb of the Emperor of the Yuan Dynasty!"
