If this sentence were spoken by someone else, I might somewhat believe it, but if it came from Uncle Gen's mouth, I wouldn't believe it at all.
The weak firelight of Huozhezi reflected my serious face, and my tone was cold: "Uncle Lao Gen, I allow your temptation, but it is not good to do it again and again. Don't mention the young master's matter again. "
Uncle Lao Gen said that he just missed his old master's son too much, but his eyebrows looked a bit like those of Jiang's eldest son.
While they were chatting, Lao Sun pushed open the door and entered.
Not long after, Liu Si came in from outside with Hu Zi, and they said, "Brother Li, Uncle Lao Gen, what do you think I found?"
"What?"
"Entrance, we have found the entrance to Luoma Village." Liu Si's face almost broke out with laughter.
I got off the bed: "Let's go take a look."
Following Liu Si and the others, we came to a small farmyard.
Beside a well, several of Liu Si's men were muttering something.
When he got closer, Liu Si said: "There is a very empty space down here. I guess it should be the underground palace of the Three Kings Tomb or Luomazhuang. It is also possible. Luomazhuang is not necessarily the Three Kings Tomb?"
I gave Liu Si a thumbs up. His speculation was indeed reasonable. I thought so before, but it was not that simple.
I said: "Fourth brother, have you asked people to go down and watch?"
"Not yet, aren't we waiting for Uncle Lao Gen to make a decision? He is an old man." Liu Si brought Uncle Lao Gen to the forefront with one sentence.
That means telling his younger brothers that if something goes wrong here, it will be Uncle Gen's responsibility. After all, everyone listened to his advice before coming here or even making any decisions.
Uncle Lao Gen was also unambiguous. He said: "You all brought climbing ropes, right? Tie them together and let one of you go down to see the situation."
Just do it.
Five climbing ropes were tied together with a dead knot, and a man named Monkey under Liu Si was hung up and asked to go down the well with a flashlight.
I saw that the light of the flashlight was getting deeper and deeper, reaching more than fifteen meters, but the monkey was still descending.
Liu Si was a little panicked and said, "Monkey, are you alive?"
After a while, the monkey's voice came, saying that it was almost over.
After putting it down another five or six meters, the monkey's flashlight flashed three times, which meant to tell us that we had reached the end.
But the monkey's scream made everyone tremble, and then a green light flashed at the bottom of the well.
Lao Sun grabbed my clothes, intending to pull me back if there was an accident.
I signaled him not to be afraid, and then the rope on our hands was pulled twice. This was also a signal that the monkey was coming up.
After pulling the monkey up, he still held a night pearl emitting green light in his hand.
The monkey said: "There is a tomb passage below. Except for the bones with no heads visible, there is nothing else at all."
Huzi asked: "Aren't there any corpse crickets or rice dumplings?"
When Uncle Lao Gen heard this, he explained: "Things like corpse crickets and rice dumplings are usually found in tombs from a relatively recent period. This is a tomb from the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period. For thousands of years, there was no food or drink here. The corpses There are no conditions for a frog to survive at all, let alone rice dumplings. Do you know what the Tomb of the Three Kings means? People have been boiled into skeletons, and you can’t even tell them apart. Where did the rice dumplings come from?"
With the way down, everyone began to prepare, inventory equipment, food and fresh water, and we took over and descended the well.
After descending the well, we walked along the tomb passage.
There were bones all along the way, but none of them were complete. They were all scattered leg bones, hand bones, and skulls.
Not long after, a foul smell came out, which made me frown.
Xiao Bijing also covered her nose and said, "Why does it still stink so much after so long?"
"I'm afraid there is someone who has just died." I recognized the smell and reminded him.
Lao Sun suddenly felt nervous, fearing that it was San'er or Xiaowu.
After walking less than ten meters, a fresh corpse appeared in front of him. It was said to be fresh, but it had been dead for several months. The skin and flesh on the body had rotted, and there were white maggots crawling in the carrion.
After passing the corpses, everyone began to feel heavy, because since there are corpses here that have just died, it means that there must be something fatal here. There is no trace of anyone coming down at the entrance of our well, which means that there is another entrance or exit to this tomb passage. , will the thing from the other entrance suddenly rush into this tomb passage?
Uncle Lao Gen said: "Xiao Sun, what do you think? The methods of the southern faction have always been better than those of the northern faction. This is an indisputable fact."
Lao Sun said that this was the first time he had laid a tomb at this age and he did not dare to express his opinion.
As we walked, a stone door appeared in front of us again.
I stepped forward with a flashlight and scratched at the stone door a few times. The dust fell off and a few lines of words began to appear. When I saw the fonts, my pupils shrank.
Because the fonts on the two doors are perfectly matched, it means that the door has not been opened, and the fonts on the doors are Birds and Insects Book.
Bird and insect script refers to adding bird, insect and other patterns when writing to increase the ornamental and artistic quality. It was only the font of the Chu State.
What is hidden behind this door is no longer within the grasp of those of us.
In other words, whatever is behind this door is already a national treasure. If we open it privately, it will be a felony.
Even if I can keep Liu Si and the others here in the end, once this big tomb is discovered, the authorities will definitely investigate to the end. It will not be easy to find out the details of us. I ask Lao Sun Too many people know about the Tomb of the Three Kings. First of all, Cemen will add fire to it and make me a mortal enemy.
But if I didn't open this door and handed the matter over to the authorities, that would be another result.
At this time, I really hope Liu Si and the others leave.
Look at me being silent for a long time.
Liu Si was anxious: "Brother Li, what are you doing? Are you possessed?"
"Let's go back, this door can't be opened." I turned my head and said solemnly.
"We spent so much effort to get down, but you said we can't open it?" Huzi asked me anxiously.
I immediately told them about the national treasure, thinking that these gangsters would retreat.
As a result, Liu Si said: "Oh no, haven't the brothers already made a fortune? It doesn't take much, just sell one of them. Let's go abroad with our family and enjoy the blessings abroad. Wouldn't it be nice?"
Sake makes people's faces red, and wealth and silk touch people's hearts.
Counting Liu Si, a total of eight people immediately became red-eyed and refused to open the door no matter what.
I knew I couldn't stop them, so I immediately wanted Lao Sun to activate the evil spirit.
At this glance, Lao Sun had fallen to the ground.
I looked at Uncle Gen.
Uncle Lao Gen smiled and said, "Li Shang, you didn't expect that, did you?"
