Lao Jin's medicine did work. After Long Feicheng woke up, Yan Shouyi gave him some more of Lao Jin's medicine for sores. After taking the medicine, Long Feicheng was jumping around again and clamoring to see the burial pit.
However, he was stopped ruthlessly by Yan Shouyi, and he also taught Long Feicheng very seriously that the inside of this tomb is not as good as the outside. You thought you were here to visit, but the owner of the tomb tried every means to kill you outsiders during his lifetime. By.
If you are not careful, you will be in danger.
After hearing this, Long Feicheng finally had a sense of consciousness and followed Yan Shouyi faithfully, but from time to time he would stand on tiptoes and look around.
After everyone rested for a while, Yan Shouyi and Ma Xingping approached Boss Zhou and asked him to talk about the situation of the burial pit.
You can still pretend outside, but now that you have entered King Jian's tomb, if Boss Zhou still doesn't know anything about it, then there must be something wrong with him.
I never thought that Boss Zhou would actually answer.
Just listen to him say: "The burial pit is in the southwest corner of the main tomb. If we can find the east exit and go through two doors, we can reach the main tomb, where the Ganoderma lucidum is."
Yan Shouyi and Ma Xingping looked at each other and both believed that Boss Zhou did know something about King Jian's tomb.
Ma Xingping then asked: "Are there any dangers along the way?"
Yan Shouyi on the side threatened: "Now everyone is a grasshopper on a rope. Even if you can enter the main tomb chamber by yourself, there are so many giant otters outside, you can't get out, so I advise you not to play any tricks." Be careful, I also promise that our personal grudges will be settled after we get out of the tomb of King Jian."
Boss Zhou smiled and said: "How can I be so ignorant of current affairs? I understand the truth, it's mutual benefit and win-win!"
He paused and then said: "There seem to be many human figurines outside the burial pit. The ancient books left by my ancestors say that the human figurines are very dangerous and the living must stay away. In addition, there are other places in the main tomb chamber." There are some agencies, I will take you with me when the time comes, there should be no problem."
After receiving boss Zhou's explanation, Yan Shouyi immediately started looking for the exit of the burial pit.
Compared with the world on the surface, the underground world is actually not as complicated as imagined. After all, it takes manpower and material resources to dig caves, so most underground tombs are square, and you can see where there are exits.
But the trouble is that King Jian’s tomb is built in a natural cave. It is not only cold and humid inside, but also has a very complicated terrain. An inconspicuous corner may be an entrance and exit. Large and small openings are distributed around the burial pit, as if Dazzling as a honeycomb.
Lin Zitong took out the compass, but there was some kind of magnetic field under the ground, which affected the compass. The pointer kept swinging, making it impossible to tell the direction.
However, Yan Shouyi's talent came into play at this time. Even though he had just experienced a chaos, he still remembered all the roads and knew where the east was.
So, he looked to the east and found a stone door that had been sealed for a long time behind a stone forest.
Calling everyone over, everyone tried to push it, but the stone door didn't move at all.
Ma Jinxuan asked everyone to stop and said: "It seems that this stone door cannot be pushed open by brute force. It should be controlled by some kind of mechanism."
Long Feicheng complained: "Why do these dead ghosts always like to set up various mechanisms in the tombs?"
Ma Xingping explained with a smile: "When ordinary people die, they can be burned to ashes and buried in a pit. But these ancient emperors and generals were different. They enjoyed glory and wealth during their lifetime, and they were not willing to go alone after death. , so they will build the tomb like a living person's house. Characters like King Jian not only meet the conditions I mentioned before, but also have one very special point, that is, they firmly believe that they can survive. If he really came back to life, but was trapped and died in his own tomb, wouldn’t it be a joke?”
"Therefore, the tombs of emperors, generals and ministers must have entrances and exits. This gave us the opportunity to allow the inverted fighting sect to survive for so many years and branch out into many schools."
After listening to Ma Xingping's explanation, everyone felt it was much more reasonable.
And from Ma Xingping's words, we learned that a stone gate like this definitely does not exist to block a dead end. There must be mechanisms around it that can allow the stone gate to open by itself.
While everyone was analyzing, suddenly Long Feicheng glanced back.
Boss Zhou, who was always as timid as a mouse, quietly left everyone and walked to the sacrificial platform behind the burial pit.
"Hey! What are you doing sneakily!" Long Feicheng shouted immediately.
Boss Zhou was so loud that he trembled all over and his steps were frozen in place. Everyone came to their senses and stared at Boss Zhou.
This abnormal behavior immediately aroused everyone's suspicion. Even Boss Zhou's four strange men stared at him unkindly in order not to lose their lives.
Boss Zhou coughed twice and said awkwardly: "I don't understand your theories about tomb robbing, so I just looked around. Maybe I can find some mechanism?"
Ma Xingping walked towards Boss Zhou: "Boss Zhou, it's not like you don't know that there are many traps in King Jian's tomb. If the traps are touched, I won't be able to save you."
"Yes, yes, you are right, the worst thing is that I just stay here!"
Boss Zhou walked down disappointedly.
But his behavior just now has attracted everyone's attention, and Yan Shou walked straight to the altar.
If you look from top to bottom, you will find that the sacrificial altar is triangular in shape, with stairs on three sides. All the stairs together have a total of thirteen steps.
As soon as Yan Shou walked to the sacrificial platform, he found that there was a wooden box in the center of the sacrificial platform with a snake-shaped lock on it.
The shape of this snake-shaped lock is also very unique. It is shaped like the red snake guarding the tomb of the snake ghost. It wraps its body in a circle and bites its tail in its mouth, forming a closed loop.
Yan Shouyi tried to move or turn the wooden box, but to no avail. It seemed that the wooden box was completely embedded in the sacrificial altar.
The rest of the people also gathered around, discussing it all.
There was nothing else around the burial pit. Only this wooden box appeared very abruptly and was placed at the top and center of the sacrificial altar. It must have some meaning.
In any case, by unlocking the snake lock, it is possible to solve the mystery.
Ma Xingping said: "Jinxuan, you unlock it and I'll help look around."
Among the Ma brothers and sisters, Ma Xingping is good at force, while Ma Jinxuan is good at intelligence, so when faced with this kind of problem, Ma Xingping just throws it to his sister.
As for his main job, in addition to being on guard against dangers that may arise at any time, more importantly, he is keeping an eye on Boss Zhou.
Ma Jinxuan squatted next to the wooden box, carefully observed the shape of the snake-shaped lock, and then tried various methods to open the lock.
In the past, she had encountered many mechanisms that needed to be decrypted in other tombs, and she had cracked them all.
However, the snake-shaped lock in front of her was so weird that Ma Jinxuan had never seen it before.
And the lock fit tightly, not like it was locked later, but like a real snake passing through the wooden box, biting its own tail, and finally turning into an iron lock.
When clever solutions failed, Ma Jinxuan also tried to use brute force, but the small and thin snake-shaped lock was frighteningly hard.
Not only could it not be opened, it didn't even leave any traces.
Yan Shouyi also tried it, and the result was the same.
Long Feicheng suggested smashing the wooden box, but Yan Shouyi said: "It's useless. The wooden box is made of black iron and heavy wood. Unless you use an electric drill to drill, it is absolutely impossible to damage it."
"My Weiwei Sword doesn't work either?" Long Feicheng asked.
"Can you cherish the peach wood sword I just made for you?" Yan Shou asked, "The Thunder Splitting Peach Wood Sword is also very hard, but it is far inferior to the black iron sunken wood. According to the legend, the black iron sunken wood is the Kunlun Sacred Mountain. If you want to grow plants in it, you cannot use soil. You have to use iron soil, which is soil mixed with iron blocks. As the dark iron sunken wood grows, it will absorb the power of the iron soil. When it matures, you can plant it with iron soil. Its iron soil is made into an iron saw, which can cut trees."
"If you want to shape the black iron sunken wood, you need to soak it in ice water for three full years. Within three days after it comes out of the water, the black iron sunken wood will look like ordinary wood, and after three days it will return to the same shape as steel. hard."
"Actually, this is the first time I've seen this black iron and sunken wood. I only heard about it from my grandfather in the past, but I didn't expect it to actually exist."
After listening to Yan Shouyi's introduction, everyone looked helpless. If it was true as Yan Shouyi said, then it would be impossible for everyone to destroy the wooden box.
And this snake-shaped lock is so weird that I may not be able to find a way to crack it for a while.
Is it possible that everyone just started building the royal tomb and will stop there?
In fact, Yan Shouyi was more anxious than everyone else, because whether he could get to the main tomb chamber was related to Lin Zitong's life or death.
Just when everyone was at a loss, Lin Zitong suddenly said: "Let me try."
Ma Jinxuan didn't say anything and just made way for Lin Zitong. Although she didn't have much hope for Lin Zitong in her heart, at this point, she could only treat a dead horse as a living horse.
