The so-called robbery hole refers to the hole dug by tomb robbers.
The purpose is to use it to enter the ancient mausoleum and steal various gold and silver treasures buried with the owner of the mausoleum!
Tomb robbers themselves also belong to one of the countless sects in the "miscellaneous sects" of Xuanmen Jianghu...
But after all, they are stealing money from dead people, which is detrimental to moral integrity, so in most cases their reputation is not very good.
Not to mention the famous and prestigious sects, the rest of the folk Taoism schools are not willing to deal with tomb robbers.
"There is actually a cave in the bedroom of the villager's home in Daling Village that leads directly to the mausoleum deep underground? It seems that the villagers in this village are not as simple as Wang Wenguang imagined."
I thought to myself.
joke!
Which family would allow grave robbers to come into the bedroom and dig holes?
Just one possibility!
That is this family, they are tomb robbers themselves. Only then would he dig the hole in his own bedroom.
In this way, it would be much more convenient to go down to the mausoleum through robbing holes to get all kinds of buried treasures. It’s not easy to be discovered!
I suddenly remembered that as early as the beginning, when Ni Yang told us about Wang Wenguang’s pursuit of the truth about the disappearance of Daling Village in the past few years... he mentioned that some people said that the villagers of Daling Village seemed to have become much richer?
And it seems that the number of young adults returning to live in the village from outside has increased?
Now it seems that it may be because these young adults discovered the ancient tombs under the village and were secretly robbing the tombs and selling the funerary items!
Look at the many open sarcophagi in this tomb, but they are empty inside. There were no burial objects or bones, which shows that they must have been taken away by the villagers...
I couldn't help but shake my head and smiled bitterly.
"Well, it seems that Boss Wang who gives back to the village doesn't know that his fellow villagers have other businesses that can make money quickly, right?"
Of course, Wang Wenguang himself is not young anymore, and the villagers he really knows and misses are probably the elderly in the village. He definitely doesn't have the ability to rob tombs...
I'm afraid it's all young and middle-aged people with strong energy and quick brains who are doing this!
But none of this has anything to do with me.
The most important thing now is to think about how to get out alive.
The cave above the head is very deep, and the overall height of the tomb reaches an astonishing two to three feet!
Without ropes and various climbing tools, it would be easy for me to fall down but difficult to get up.
This tomb is obviously not the main tomb of the mausoleum. It can be regarded as a burial chamber or an ear chamber at most, and it is already so majestic.
It can be seen that the identity of the tomb owner is not trivial!
And what is very strange is that this mausoleum seems to be able to isolate the remote sensing communication with the outside world's spiritual thoughts.
After falling here, I found that I couldn't contact Madoka anymore.
"Oh, this place is really tight. Otherwise, there is someone who can communicate with Xiao Yuan through his mind. Maybe he knows something."
"The only way now is to find the main exit of this mausoleum! However, it's here now, so there's no need to panic. Just rest here for a while and regain some strength and energy."
I am also a very rational person. Since things have already happened, being nervous and anxious will not have any effect.
It is better to restore your own strength first, and then start to carefully explore the situation of this tomb.
Even a fool can see that the truth behind the disappearance of Daling Village is definitely related to this weird mausoleum!
Even if it’s not for getting out alive or for the huge reward of hundreds of thousands in cash, you should explore it just to satisfy your curiosity, right?
I looked at the door of the tomb in front - it was connected to the tomb passage outside, as dark as ink. Once you step into it, you may be in danger.
I didn't rush out. I walked around the tomb and chose a corner where I felt safe.
After checking that there were no weird mechanisms like the legendary ones around here, he took out the special pebbles used to set up the formation from his pocket, and laid out two formations according to the direction of Qimen Dunjia.
One level is the blinding magic array, and the other level is the defensive barrier array.
Although they are not particularly powerful formations, they are all set up using Qi Men Dun Jia's method. If there is any danger during my meditation, it will give me time to react.
After getting ready, I sat down cross-legged.
After taking a deep breath, remove the distracting thoughts from your mind and allow yourself to concentrate. Then he formed the Taoist meditation mantra with his hands, placed his palms gently on his knees, closed his eyes and quickly entered a meditative state...
Master once said that the speed with which a person enters the ethereal state of meditation also indicates the person's talent in cultivation.
Someone like me who can quickly enter the state at any time means that he is born to eat this kind of food.
…
When in the state of meditation, people will also lose the concept of the speed of time.
Because the consciousness is empty, the spirit is naturally connected with heaven and earth, and only the Dantian is slowly absorbing the spiritual energy of heaven and earth. Then it is integrated with the practitioner himself and transformed into usable Qi, which flows and circulates in the meridians and acupoints, and finally settles down again.
Only when you reach the level you set before meditating will you exit the meditative state.
So when I opened my eyes again, I felt that my Qi and physical strength had almost recovered to about 80%.
Looking at the time displayed on the electronic watch on my wrist, about two hours have passed.
That's pretty quick.
"It's almost 80% recovered. The recovery of energy and stamina is faster towards the front and slower towards the back. I'm afraid it will take another two hours to return to peak condition, which is too long..."
I slowly stood up and moved my joints.
Take a deep breath.
"Get ready to start! Find out what secrets are hidden in this weird underground tomb."
I held the magic knife and walked towards the door of this tomb.
Ta-ta-ta, tap-ta.
In the dead silence and darkness of the tomb, only the sound of my footsteps echoed.
After walking out of the door of the tomb, there was indeed a long corridor outside... Walking forward, after turning a few corners, I found that there were several burial chambers on both sides of the corridor.
I didn't go in to see.
After all, I am alone now. If you go into every tomb and look at it, it will be a waste of time, not to mention the increased risks.
I have only one goal... and that is the main tomb chamber!
As long as you enter the main tomb chamber where the tomb owner's coffin is stored, it is likely that all the fog and the truth will be solved.
At this time, I discovered that there was a faint light at the end of the tomb passage ahead - like the light of a fire.
"what happened?"
While I was doubtful, I also became more vigilant.
The tomb passage bends at a right angle of 90 degrees. After turning this bend, the view suddenly opens up.
Because what appeared in front of us was a huge and spectacular tomb passage!
It is about six meters wide from left to right and five meters high from top to bottom.
It is estimated that even heavy-duty trucks can be driven here!
On the walls on both sides of the tomb passage, at regular intervals, there are very exquisite black iron lamps fixed.
The flame of the lamp burned brightly and extended forward, illuminating the entire tomb passage.
"Is it an eternal lamp? It can actually burn for so many years! How is it possible!"
My eyes widened in surprise.
After the death of ancient royal nobles, lamps would be placed in the tombs and then lit.
There are several purposes.
The first is to allow the owner of the tomb to maintain the symbol of prosperity, wealth and joy every night after death.
Secondly, he deliberately used this method to consume all the remaining air in the tomb passage!
In this way, if a tomb robber comes, there is a possibility of suffocation and death.
But these everlasting lights in front of us...
It's still burning?
How abnormal!
But after the initial shock, I immediately calmed down and thought about it.
"This means at least two things. First, the tomb is not sealed. Perhaps it has an exit to the outside, so the air is always flowing and will not be exhausted. Second, the oil in this ever-burning lamp is not a mortal thing. "
While thinking about it, I cautiously approached the nearest lamp to see the lamp oil inside...
In fact, I have some knowledge about the structure of the mausoleum and tomb robbing - Master will definitely not teach me this. I only heard it from Lao Cao.
After all, he is a coffin bearer and paper maker, so he naturally has some basic understanding of the structural details of the tomb.
Although the Feng Shui of the Yin Mansion is mentioned in the "Burial Sutra", it is a macro-level choice to match the mausoleum with the terrain of the mountains and rivers. As for the details of the interior construction of the mausoleum, that itself falls within the scope of Luban Shu and carpenters.
Feng Shui itself cannot be learned...
What I didn't expect was to get close to the lamp and look inside.
The remaining half bowl of lamp oil turned out to be red!
It looked like human blood, a bit eerie under the firelight.
But it certainly wasn't human blood.
Because this tomb is at least several hundred years old, and if it were human blood, it would have dried up long ago. It is impossible to keep these ever-burning lamps burning...
I got a little closer and smelled it.
This blood-like lamp oil actually has a faint fragrance.
"Is it the legendary shark blood?"
I suddenly remembered what Lao Cao once told me.
It is said that in the deep sea around the South China Sea, there lives a magical shark-man monster - the upper body is a human and the lower body is a fish. This kind of shark is so ferocious that it will attack passing fishing boats, drag sailors into the sea and eat them!
But if the shark is killed and its soul is mixed with blood, it can burn as lamp oil for a long time. Smelling it has the effect of calming the nerves and promoting sleep.
Therefore, in ancient times, some high-ranking officials and nobles would ask themselves to support or familiar practitioners to help get this kind of shark blood to light lamps in their mansions!
"If it is true that shark blood is used to make lamp oil, there are so many here! Then what is the identity of the owner of this tomb? Or... is he himself a very powerful practitioner?"
This situation is not impossible.
Some practitioners, relying on some means, eventually reached high positions in the court, or had great power.
He is both a monk and a powerful person!
The combination of power and mana can do many amazing things.
The owner of this tomb is likely to fall into this category.
"Don't think too much. After entering the main tomb chamber, many questions should be answered. For a mausoleum like this, there is a high probability that there will be murals or epitaphs about the tomb owner's life experience in the main tomb chamber."
I pulled back and started to move faster.
This must be the main tomb passage, so the end of the tomb passage must be the main tomb chamber where the tomb owner’s coffin is located!
really!
When I came to the end of this wide tomb passage, a gorgeous and strange tomb door appeared in front of me...
