Lin Yi stood up first and reached out to hold Wang Qiang and Qian Sheng.
The three of them stood up with help and found that there was a slope under the Wutou Gate, facing a huge bronze mirror.
The three of them had just seen the image in this bronze mirror. They were so panicked that they rolled down the slope without looking at their feet.
"Damn it, digging a hole in front of your own house? Isn't this a trap?"
Wang Qiang patted his sore buttocks and cursed.
"You're really right. People are being tricked by this design."
Lin Yi said, raised his flashlight and looked around.
It looks like a big pit here, with an area of at least two to three hundred square meters. It has been taken care of very carefully, and the corners have been specially chamfered.
The surrounding walls exuded a pale color.
It felt smooth and smooth, but there was a huge bulge in the middle, and then slopes extended in all directions. It was impossible for anyone to stand on it. If the three of them wanted to stand, they could only cling to the wall.
The whole pit has a big belly and a small mouth. There are no furnishings, no words or pictures, and no exit.
Wang Qiangdong looked to the west, then looked up at the location where they fell.
"Why do I feel like we have fallen into someone else's garbage pit?"
Qian Sheng was beating and sniffing at the side. After a while of operation, he turned to them and said:
"This wall does not look like rammed earth, it seems to be made of fine kaolin fired and spliced together."
When Lin Yi heard this, he couldn't help but feel suspicious.
"Kaolin? Isn't that the raw material used to make porcelain?"
"Yes, who knew they would actually use it here? I feel like the position we are in is like a white porcelain bottle with a small mouth and a big belly."
The three of them raised their heads and pointed their flashlights upward.
The place where they fell was equivalent to a sloping inner wall on the circular "bottle mouth", which was at least three or four meters away from where they were now.
There are no points of support around, and the highest point of the entire pit cannot support a person. The position where a person can stand is at a negative angle to the entrance of the cave, making it impossible to climb out.
Even if the three of them stacked up, there would be no way to overcome this structural obstacle.
"Damn it, we've been playing hawks all our lives, and now we've let a little house sparrow peck our eyes, and we've been trapped in such a hole."
After Wang Qiang tried various ways to escape, he still found nothing.
It's exactly what he said.
This mechanism couldn't be simpler. It just digs a hole and invites you to enter the urn.
Once you fall in, you can't get out.
The netizens in the live broadcast room are all people who like to watch the fun and don't take it too seriously.
Seeing that the three of them are trapped here, they are not worried at all and are still exchanging ideas with each other on how to "kill" them.
"If you want to trap professionals, you often only need simple mechanisms. The mechanisms that anchors encountered before were cracked because they suffered from complex structures."
"The simpler it is, the more effective it is. What's the point of making it so complicated? Just like this, digging a big hole that you can't climb out of and being trapped to death, isn't it?"
"If you ask me, this mechanism is still a bit crude. If I had designed it, I would have filled the pit with mercury. If you fell in, you would definitely die."
"There is no need for mercury at all. Just insert bamboo sticks at the bottom and string them together when they fall in. How environmentally friendly is it?"
Wang Qiang looked at the live broadcast barrage and felt dumbfounded.
"Look, are you talking like this? Are you afraid that we won't die?"
Qian Sheng took Wang Qiang's engineering shovel and hit it hard on the wall several times.
Although the white porcelain piece made of kaolin-fired paper was smooth and strong, it could not withstand the hammering of the engineer shovel, and cracks soon appeared on it.
"Master Lin, Master Wang, you two have noticed that this tile wall is not a piece of steel. As long as we put in some effort, cut out a few gaps, and have a place to stand, we can climb out."
"Shopkeeper Qian, what you said is true, but what happens after we climb out? We're back to the starting point, unable to get out or in?"
After hearing what Wang Qiang said, Qian Sheng stopped what he was doing.
Thinking about it carefully, it seems that this is really the case.
Climbing out from here doesn't seem to be much different from staying here.
Lin Yi held up a flashlight and observed the place carefully.
"According to the structure of the Tang tomb, we passed through the corridor, then passed through the middle chamber and reached the tomb door. There is a anti-theft pit hidden here. What should we do with the coffin?"
"Is it possible that the coffin has been properly placed in the main tomb?"
Qian Sheng guessed.
"Then why are there no burial objects in the east and west chambers? And no epitaphs?"
Qian Sheng raised his head and thought for a moment, but he had no clue.
“I think there must be a way out of this place, but we haven’t found the right place yet.
We almost missed that mark before, so look for it again, trying not to miss any clues. "
Wang Qiang and Qian Sheng nodded after hearing this, and each held up a flashlight to explore the space bit by bit.
The area of two hundred square meters is not too big or too small. The three of them sat on each side, from top to bottom, carefully observing every inch.
The surroundings were quiet. Except for Wang Qiang chatting with netizens in the live broadcast room from time to time, there was almost no movement.
Not long after, Qian Sheng across from me suddenly spoke:
"Master Wang, Master Lin, it's time now, why don't we stop joking?"
Lin Yi and Wang Qiang were both facing Qian Sheng at the moment, several meters away from him. Wukong was also staying in front of Lin Yi, and no one had ever been to his side.
The two stood up in confusion and looked at each other.
"Shop Manager Qian, we are far away from you. Who is kidding you?"
"Not you two? Then it's on my neck."
As soon as they heard what he said, Lin Yi and Wang Qiang's two flashlights shined towards Qian Sheng.
It doesn't matter if you don't shine, the scene in front of them makes both of them almost unable to hold the flashlight.
Around Qian Sheng's neck, a snake as thick as an arm was coiled around Qian Sheng's neck.
The snake head wandered to nowhere. Just looking at the size of the snake, it was at least two or three meters long.
Goku suddenly let out a piercing scream.
Qian Sheng understood immediately.
"Okay, Brother Monkey has already spoken, and I have a pretty good guess. Can you guys know what kind of snake it is?"
"Shopkeeper Qian, hold on tight first, play first and don't panic. You can't see where the snake's head is, and you don't know if it's poisonous or not. Don't act rashly. Lao Lin and I are here to help you."
Qian Sheng was not afraid of snakes, but how could anyone not be frightened when this thing suddenly lay on someone's shoulder, too close to the core?
Lin Yi took out the compound bow from his bag and put the arrow on the string. As soon as the snake's head popped out, he would hit it with a headshot.
But before they had even taken two steps, their feet seemed to be caught by something like a vine. The light shone downwards, and the hairs on their bodies immediately stood up, and a stream of cold sweat flowed down their backs.
I don't know when this "bottom of the tank" has been covered with dense snakes, entangled with each other, twisting their bodies, countless heads raised high, spitting out snake messages, and looking at the two of them.
