Fortunately, the materials of the tarpaulin and backpack are thickened and waterproof, and can naturally prevent light transmission. In this way, it is completely low-key, even if the bulge is still quite eye-catching.
After covering up the dragon egg, the next step is to find the whereabouts of the Cao gang. There are fire pots all around, and you can see everything in front of you. There are concave and convex stone walls all around, and there is no entrance to the cave.
It's strange, could it be that so many people have disappeared from the world? At this time, after Liu Baye looked around, he looked directly at the messy footprints on the ground.
After staring at the footprints on the ground for a moment, Liu Baye's brows suddenly relaxed, then he raised his head and looked at me and said, "Dongzi, look at these footprints on the ground, do you find anything?" At first I was I didn't take the footprints on the ground seriously at all. I just took a cursory glance at them before. Now after Liu Baye reminded me, I suddenly realized that I lowered my head and looked carefully.
After looking around at the footprints for a few seconds, a hint of joy suddenly appeared on my face, and I quickly replied: "Godfather, I know!" The first sister on the side obviously also saw the clue, and the corner of her mouth also smiled slightly. Erbao was the only one who stared at the footprints on the ground for a long time, but couldn't figure out why.
"Dongzi, if you know it, tell me quickly. Don't gasp, okay?" I smiled knowingly at Erbao, then pointed at the messy footprints on the ground and said, "These footprints seem to be messy, but in fact if you look carefully, they are still... There are traces to follow. Almost all the footprints are around this stone monument. There are very few footprints around or in the distance. This can negate the possibility of hidden mechanisms in the surrounding stone walls." After saying this, I swallowed. After a moment of slobbering, he continued his analysis: "This time the Cao Gang mobilized so many people to bring down so many people, and almost half of them were killed or injured. They will definitely not return without success, so according to my analysis, the entrance to the mausoleum is at Elsewhere, everyone from the Cao Gang has gone down to the mausoleum." Liu Baye nodded with great relief.
"What a good boy, your eyesight is really unique, not bad."
"It's not the Eighth Master, why is that good? This guy talked for a long time but I didn't understand it. He said that all the people from the Cao Gang entered the mausoleum. Where is the entrance? It should be under the cliff, right? Did everyone in the Cao Gang jump off the cliff?" Erbao asked eagerly.
Seeing that Erbao was so eager, I stopped being pretentious and planned to do it myself, but as soon as I raised my arm, I felt a stabbing pain in my chest.
In the end, he could only raise his finger and point at the huge stone monument and said, "Brother Erbao, the entrance to this mausoleum is under that stone monument."
"Really?" Erbao doubtfully stretched out a hand and pushed hard on the stone tablet, then turned around with a sad face and said: "You kid is planning to treat me like a stupid boy, right? Even if The entrance is down here, but this stone tablet is so big and heavy. It weighs at least a ton. How can it be pushed!" Of course I know this, and the Cao Gang will not waste their money without knowing where the entrance is. So much manpower was used to move this ton-heavy stone tablet. Even if it was moved, how did the stone tablet return to its original place after everyone went in? There is only one answer, and that is that there is something on this stone tablet. Hidden mechanism.
I asked Erbao to try to explore around the stone monument to find a mechanism for moving the stone monument. Then Erbao suddenly realized that he raised his hand and patted his head and said: "Yes, such a big stone monument must have a mechanism. Why am I so stupid!" After saying that, Erbao started groping around the stone tablet.
Of course, he only dared to search for it on the back of the stone tablet. As for the front, he couldn't touch it because it was covered with the blood-red juice of poison ivy. Even after such a long time, there was still no sign of drying up.
Kaka...! There was a sound of a mechanism, and Erbao shouted with surprise: "Hahahahahaha... I found it, there is indeed a mechanism!" The moment the mechanism was triggered, the huge and heavy stone tablet was slowly lifted. It moved to one side, and a rectangular entrance slowly appeared under the stone tablet.
At the entrance, there are neat brick steps that lead directly to the bottom. As the entrance is completely revealed, bright firelight reflects from it.
However, at the moment when the entrance to the mausoleum appeared, a deafening loud noise came from far to near, and then the entire space began to shake violently and tremble.
I was surprised at first, but it just triggered the mechanism that opened the entrance to the mausoleum. How could it cause such a violent shock?
But soon a dragon's roar echoed in my ears, which made my heart twitch, and then I shouted: "No, the hornet dragon rushed out!" The green hornet came towards the dragon egg, if If you stand here stupidly, you will have no choice but to wait for death.
Fortunately, the entrance to the mausoleum is open, and you can go in just in time to avoid the danger. As for how to leave at that time, you can only take one step at a time, and then make plans.
The four of us descended into the tomb one after another. Just as I stepped down, the sound of the machine turning back immediately sounded, and the huge stone tablet slowly moved into the distance again, closing the entrance above our heads again. Sealed.
The surroundings were still trembling violently, and they were about to tremble violently. The trembling sounds were mixed with the roar of dragons full of resentment. If we guessed correctly, the green Qiu was already above our heads at this time.
The tremors and sounds lasted for five or six minutes, and then fell completely silent. If it weren't for the buzzing in the ears, it would be as if nothing had happened.
With the arrival of silence, you can faintly hear the noise coming from the end of the corridor in front of you. Carefully identify it, it should be the sound of voices, but because of the distance, it sounds more like mosquitoes buzzing. Yelling, but it was also confirmed that the Cao gang members were in this mausoleum.
Any large mausoleum will have anti-theft mechanisms, and Cao Cao was recognized as a suspicious person. He once set up seventy-two suspicious tombs to prevent people from robbing the tomb. How could there be no mechanism in his tomb? I'm afraid it's just more.
Sure enough, after walking for a certain distance in the corridor, the four of us encountered arrow traps, rock falling traps, and stabbing wells backwards. Fortunately, we were very cautious along the way, so we had no danger.
However, it seems that the Cao Gang is not so lucky, or they have never been to a tomb of this size, and they are not aware of the dangers in the tomb. More than ten people died under several mechanisms along the way. , based on this, it is estimated that the team of nearly a hundred people who came down together may have very few left at this time.
The corridor finally reached the end, and a tomb chamber about ten meters square appeared in front of them, with a height of about five meters.
There was a huge copper coffin parked in it. Cao Tian and others were standing in it at the moment, and several of his men climbed onto the copper coffin to open the lid.
However, no matter how hard they used tools to pry it, they were unable to open the lid of the copper coffin even a hair.
"Ahem!" Liu Baye coughed twice, indicating our presence. All eyes turned to us, but except for one person, the ancestor of the Cao Gang, he seemed to be interested in us. These people seemed to be disdainful, not even bothering to take a look.
As soon as he saw Master Liu Ba, Cao Tian came up to him with a smile on his face and said in a very polite tone: "Master Ba, did you get what you needed?"
"Yes, I got it." These were just a few words, not much else was said. But even so, Cao Tian quickly locked his eyes on Erbao's bulging backpack, and a trace of greed flashed in his eyes.
"Hehehehe... That's great. It's a coincidence that Mr. Ba came here. I was worried about how to open the copper coffin." As he said this, Cao Tian looked at me. He said he was looking at me, but he was actually looking at my hand. Exploring Dragon Claw, Cao Tian has obviously heard about the heaven-defying power of Exploring Dragon Claw, and now he wants to borrow my Exploring Dragon Claw to open the copper coffin.
