Even Dian Wei and the others could feel the cold wind blowing around them becoming more and more like a sinister wind when they heard some unorthodox sayings such as the agreement between the living and the dead, or the ghost blowing out the lamp.
However, even though we have come here, the property in the royal tomb is related to the survival of many people, so it must be dug out.
King Xiao of Liang should not be so stingy as to blow out the lamp.
They thought and waited.
While Chen Zhou was waiting, he was not idle. Based on his memory of the specific layout of the Mausoleum of Prince Xiao of Liang, he recalled what he had seen during his travels, including what mechanisms might be inside, and told Dian Wei and the others.
Half an hour passed in the blink of an eye.
"Let the pheasants go!"
Chen Zhou said.
As the founder of the Golden Captain, he was still a little excited. He had read too many tomb robbing novels, but this was his first time leading a team to rob a tomb.
There is a long rope tied to the pheasant's body.
A soldier put the pheasant in. The frightened pheasant regained its freedom, walked directly to the tomb door, dragged the rope into it, and quickly tightened the rope.
"Sir, what next?"
Cao Ang looked into the darkness at the entrance of the cave. He couldn't see his fingers inside, as if there was really a ghost haunting him.
It's spooky and scary.
"Wait a moment."
Chen Zhou counted the time.
About ten minutes passed before he had someone drag the pheasant out.
The pheasant is still alive and kicking, which proves that the air inside is fine and there is no danger. Chen Zhou said: "Lao Dian, you can arrange for someone to go in. Remember my instructions, do you understand?"
"Come two people and protect the young master and sir outside. The others will come in with me."
Dian Wei shouted to embolden himself and the soldiers around him, and then said: "I don't believe there is really a ghost inside. Give me the candle, light the torch, and I'll go in first."
Killing people, they killed a lot of people.
If there really was a ghost, the ghost would have taken revenge long ago.
They lit torches one by one, and Dian Wei took the lead and entered first.
Chen Zhou never thought about going in. Robbing a tomb was enjoyable, but it was still unknown whether there was any danger in the tomb. What if he went in hastily and couldn't get out?
"Sir, will the candle go out?"
Cao Ang was curious about the ghost blowing the lamp and was also quite scared.
"Maybe not!"
After Chen Zhou finished speaking, he quietly waited outside.
At this time, outside the royal tomb, the night was dim.
It feels better when there are many people.
There are fewer people now, and something feels wrong.
He felt that there was a dark wind blowing everywhere, which made Cao Ang very uncomfortable.
Only Chen Zhou was calm and sat quietly on a stone.
They waited for nearly half an hour.
"Sir, Lao Dian and the others haven't come out yet. Is there any danger?"
Cao Ang asked worriedly.
In fact, Chen Zhou was also hesitating whether there would be danger.
He knew the structure of the tomb of Prince Xiao of Liang. If he followed his instructions, there would be no danger, so he had no choice but to continue waiting. After a while, there was finally a sound from the entrance of the tomb door.
"gentlemen!"
Dian Wei ran out excitedly and said, "There is no danger inside, but there is a lot of gold. Look!"
He took out two pieces of gold and placed them in front of Chen Zhou and the others.
Really gold.
Although copper was often regarded as gold in ancient times, copper has been buried underground for a long time, and it is easily corroded and the surface will change color. What you see in front of you is real gold, but you don't know how pure it is.
"Get your stuff out quickly."
"You can move as much as you can before dawn, and you can go in and help."
"A tomb can only be moved once at most, never a second time, otherwise the owner of the tomb will be angry. Please finish moving it as soon as possible."
Chen Zhou asked the two people who were protecting him to also enter the tomb passage.
After finishing speaking, Chen Zhou felt that it was necessary to write down the rules about touching the gold captain after returning home.
As the ancestor of tomb robbers, he wants to leave more things to future generations.
Dian Wei and the others ensured that there was no danger and no ghosts. They were full of energy and enthusiasm. They did not go in empty-handed. Each man had a cart. The Huben soldiers themselves were strong and powerful people, so they moved very quickly, one cart after another. Gold, jewelry and other things were pushed out one after another.
Even when Chen Zhou saw so much property, he still had some greedy thoughts.
But he quickly held back. He must not be greedy, and he had no ability to be greedy.
Time passed very quickly, more than an hour passed.
It was already early in the morning, and there was less than half an hour left before dawn.
"Sir, it's not good."
"Sir...sir..."
A burst of chaotic shouts came urgently from the tomb.
Then Dian Wei took them and ran away as fast as he could. They all rushed out at once and sat in front of the tomb door, panting and taking deep breaths.
"Lao Dian, what's wrong?"
Cao Ang felt a little gloomy again.
Especially the tone of the soldiers' shouting sounded a bit scary.
"Ghost...ghost blows out the lamp!"
"The candle inside was really extinguished."
Dian Wei said in shock.
Damn it!
Is there really a ghost?
Cao Ang was frightened. Isn't Mr. too powerful?
He really knows how to make agreements with the dead.
Chen Zhou didn't believe that there was really a ghost. It was probably because the oxygen inside was almost running out. After all, so many people went in. There was only one door to the tomb and the amount of ventilation was limited. He asked, "Have you finished moving?"
"There's still some left!"
"I don't want the rest. Seal this place and let's leave first."
Chen Zhou ordered.
When Dianwei and the others were almost relieved, they also thought it made sense.
If the tomb door is sealed, the ghosts inside can't get out, so they do whatever they say.
After completely sealing the royal tomb, and moving the gold, jewelry, etc. away from the tomb gate, it finally dawned.
Cao Ang had not yet recovered from the shock of the ghost blowing out the lamp, but he was much better. He ordered the soldiers to load the belongings into the carriage. The fifty carriages could not be loaded, so he could only go to a nearby city, reveal his identity, and then transfer them. There were more than sixty carriages.
A total of more than one hundred and ten carts of belongings were barely loaded.
"It's so rich!"
Chen Zhou sighed.
No wonder Cao Cao could raise his troops for three years by digging a tomb.
Chen Zhou wanted to become a professional gold-touching captain, and said: "This food crisis is almost solved. Let's go back and buy food!"
"gone!"
Cao Ang said loudly.
A team of more than a hundred carriages returned to Puyang in a mighty manner.
Fortunately, those fierce soldiers are loyal people.
——
"Have you been there for ten days?"
Cao Cao called everyone together again and said anxiously: "Why is there no news about Zixiu and the others so far?"
Now the food supply is about to bottom out.
If Chen Zhou doesn't come back, people will starve to death.
Cao Cao asked again: "Where is Zhongde?"
He glanced at the meeting hall, only Cheng Yu's seat was vacant.
Man Chong said: "Zhongde was still preparing food, so he didn't come."
Cao Cao sighed: "It's so hard for Zhongde, why hasn't Zixiu..."
Before he could finish his sentence, Xu Chu suddenly ran in and said: "Master, you are back. Young Master and Sir are back!"
