It's really hard to find anything without wearing iron shoes, and it takes no effort at all!

I have been searching so hard for so long, and today I met it here. Fortunately, I haven't left yet. I might have missed it if I had missed it a little while ago.

At this time, the old leader and others shouted to him to confirm the situation.

Now that there were so many people watching, it was hard for Lin Yan to go deep for further confirmation. He could only find another time.

Thinking of this, Lin Yan shouted upward: "Pull me up!"

When the big man waiting above heard this, he pulled the rope and pulled Lin Yan up from the bottom of the pit bit by bit.

As soon as Lin Yan came up, everyone gathered around and stared at him.

It's not that he is very good-looking, although he is indeed quite handsome. People are mainly interested in what's underneath the potholes.

Lin Yan scratched his head and briefly explained the situation under the pit to everyone. Of course, he concealed the information about the mechanism and the Mo Shenji, but only said that there was a wooden doll underneath.

When the people around him heard this, they were a little disappointed, but they were also relieved.

It turned out to be a mistake. This doll had scared everyone before. Now that the truth was revealed, everyone dispersed and went about their own business.

When it was over, Lin Yan followed the old leader back to the tribe. Because of what happened today, his original plan to leave was disrupted, so he stayed for two more days.

When the old leader heard this, he was naturally very happy and entertained him warmly.

Before I knew it, it was night again. After everyone was asleep, a figure from the tribe sneaked out. It was Lin Yan!

Mainly because what he was looking for was too involved, so it was best to avoid other people.

There was a moon tonight. Under the faint moonlight, Lin Yan galloped forward and soon arrived at the pothole during the day.

The rope used before was not taken away, but was tied casually to a big tree nearby.

Lin Yan approached and tightened the rope again. After confirming that it would not loosen, he grabbed the rope and slowly slid towards the bottom of the pit.

Since he had gone down there once before, he was very familiar with the road and quickly reached the bottom of the pothole with the help of the moonlight.

The wooden machine doll was still lying there quietly, but unfortunately it couldn't move.

Lin Yan thought: If he really got the "Thousand Changes of Mechanisms", maybe he could try to fix him!

After briefly observing the surrounding situation, Lin Yan discovered that the bottom of the pit was not completely closed. There was an inconspicuous small hole in the wall on the side, which could only allow one person to pass through.

Lin Yan sorted it out briefly, took out the fire folder, blew on it, and a little fire came out.

Lin Yan held it up with one hand, leaned down and crawled towards the cave.

The entrance to the hole was so dark that even with the light of the fire, it was hard to see how long it was. The other end of the hole seemed to be connected to the entrance to the netherworld, which made people feel fearful.

Although Lin Yan was not afraid, after all, he had a sword spirit like Qiu Lao next to him, but as time went by, he still did not climb to the end, which made him a little impatient.

Just when Lin Yan was tired of seeing the same mud in the cave, he suddenly saw something shimmering in front of him.

He quickly crawled forward, and it turned out to be some fragments of granite, which reflected the light of the fire stick in his hand just now.

Looking further ahead, there is a granite wall ahead, but now there is a hole in it, and broken pieces are scattered inside the hole.

This granite is several feet thick. It is hard to imagine what kind of force could destroy it like this.

Through the broken granite wall, Lin Yan's field of vision suddenly broadened, and the sight that followed made him freeze on the spot.

Below is a huge stone chamber, and the entrance of the cave where Lin Yan is currently located is at the southwest corner above the stone chamber.

The stone chamber is four to five feet high. At a rough glance, it is about twenty feet long and more than ten feet wide, forming a long strip.

There is an ever-burning lamp in each of the four corners of the stone chamber. I don't know how many years have passed. As soon as the outside air comes in, it automatically lights up and emits a faint light.

On both sides of the stone chamber are lined up a group of "soldiers" holding spears, who look like they are made of stone.

There is also a group of people and horses neatly arranged in the front of the center, charging, and magnificent. The images of soldiers and horses are vivid, forming a particularly oppressive picture.

In the center of the stone chamber, there is a long sarcophagus, lying there quietly, with the soldiers and horses from before guarding it.

This is actually a tomb!

When ordinary people die, at most they dig a rectangular pit, build a thin coffin, and bury them on the spot.

After that, only a small earth bag was left, with a tombstone erected on it, which said "the grave of so-and-so".

If there is a time of war or famine, there will be many corpses exposed in the wilderness.

For such a large-scale tomb, the identity of the owner during his lifetime was definitely unusual. Looking at the soldiers and war horses displayed in the stone chamber, the owner of this tomb was most likely a general during his lifetime.

This is probably a general’s tomb!

Although I don't know how Mo Shenji's machine puppet appeared near this general's tomb, since he is here, he must go in and check it out.

Lin Yan came out of the cave and slowly moved down the wall. The holes dug by the tribesmen unintentionally allowed the turbid air in the tomb to disperse a lot, so there was no need to worry about poisoning.

Since the tomb was buried deep underground and was closed all year round, the inside was not very humid. Lin Yan used his hands and feet to cling to the wall. After a while, he slowly fell to the ground of the stone chamber.

He looked around and saw that the surrounding walls were made of extremely solid granite, like a stone fortress.

I don’t know what those eternal lamps were made of, but they were still bright after so many years. It was because of their existence that Lin Yan was able to see the entire tomb clearly at a close distance.

Just now, he only had a general view from above, and now after walking around on the ground, Lin Yan found that the tomb was quite big, but the furnishings were a bit too simple.

It is said that a tomb of this size must contain many valuable funerary objects. But there was nothing in this tomb except a coffin, some stone statues and a few broken lamps!

It’s really strange that such a large tomb seems so empty!

Could it be that all the valuables are in the coffin?

Lin Yan thought so, and unconsciously walked towards the sarcophagus.

He is not very greedy for money, but he came to the treasure mountain by chance, how could he return empty-handed? Even if you don’t take it, it’s still good to experience it!

Lin Yan walked towards the sarcophagus through the gaps between the stone statues.

As his steps moved, he felt something was getting more and more wrong, as if someone was watching him secretly, making him feel uncomfortable all over.

But when he looked back, he found nothing.

He himself was puzzled, thinking: Could it be that these stone statues are alive?

Then he shook his head again, how could this be possible? Maybe he was too tired, so he was suspicious.

Then he continued to walk forward, passing through the stone statues of soldiers and horses, and came to the front of the sarcophagus.

He stepped onto the steps and walked towards the sarcophagus step by step. Just when he was about to reach the sarcophagus, suddenly, a sound of breaking through the air came from behind him.

Lin Yan instinctively drew out the broken knife, turned around and slashed back. Then a strong force came and he was shaken back a few steps.

After he stabilized his body and looked forward, the scene in front of him suddenly overturned his understanding.

That stone statue actually moved!

The one who attacked him just now was a stone soldier holding a stone spear. In the collision just now, the opponent's spear was shattered by Lin Yan, and a section of his arm was broken.

But the latter didn't care at all. He paused and attacked Lin Yan again, followed by many stone soldiers and horses behind him.

Looking at this scene, Lin Yan felt mixed. Why did all sorts of bad things happen to him? What's going on? Are the Yin soldiers taking advantage of this?

At this time, Qiu Lao's voice sounded in his heart at the right time: "Boy, there is no point in spending time with them. Let's go out first!"

Lin Yan nodded in agreement. But the next question that arises is how he gets out.

Seeing that the stone soldiers and horses gathered more and more, they gradually formed a circle and surrounded him.

At this moment, he is now a "caged bird" and it is difficult to escape.

Lin Yan also tried to break out several times, but although these stone soldiers and horses had no wisdom, they were also fearless.

Even if their hands and feet are cut off, they will still attack Lin Yan. After all, they are stones.

Only by destroying them completely can their actions be completely stopped.

But this kind of thing is easy to say, but quite difficult to do, after all, there are so many opponents. Maybe when you destroy a stone soldier, there will be countless stone soldiers holding spears to stab you.

Just when Lin Yan was at a loss what to do, he suddenly discovered a pattern, that is, these stone soldiers and horses could only move in a certain area in front of the sarcophagus, and would never take the initiative to move out of this area.

Then there must be some mechanism on the ground here controlling the actions of these stone dolls. The reason why they can grasp their position so accurately and launch an attack is that there must be something wrong with the stone floor on the ground.

Now that you know this, it's much easier to handle. Lin Yan rushed forward, the broken knife in his hand lying across the ground, blocking the stone spear in the soldier's hand. Then, he flew up and kicked the latter's head away.

The round head of the stone was kicked away by Lin Yan and fell to the ground not far behind, rolling backwards.

Seeing this, the rest of the stone soldiers paused for a moment, then all turned around and headed towards the direction of the stone head.

"Knew it!"

Lin Yan sighed, then seized the opportunity to break out of the encirclement and came to the southwest corner of the tomb.

He inserted his broken knife into the wall, and inserted it like cutting tofu. It was indeed a magic weapon, even if it was broken, it was still so strong!

Lin Yan held the handle of the knife with both hands, swung his body upwards with the help of inertia, and pulled out the knife smoothly. Then, while throwing it on the body, insert the broken knife into the wall again, repeat the above actions, and reach the hole in the southwest corner in a few breaths.

At this time, the stone soldiers and horses underneath had discovered that they had been deceived, but it was too late. Lin Yan turned around, got into the hole and disappeared.
