Chapter 61
There is a hidden mechanism in this tomb, and the two of them are just ordinary people. In this situation, the two of them should be extremely careful.
The cave was filled with corpses. Some mummies were successfully processed, but many were rotting. The air was filled with a pungent rotten smell.
Covering his nose, Wu Hai said: "Who do you think these bones belong to?"
"If we follow what the text says, these people are probably the barbarians who were beheaded and left hanging in this tomb. If they don't rot, they won't be buried in the ground, and they won't have a good death."
"It won't end well..." Tan Cheng's words reminded Wu Hai of something, "Do you know those weird legends that followed the excavation of Dingling several decades ago?"
"You mean...the curse of Dingling...the legend?"
"Yes, it's not that five years ago, after the nanmu coffins of Emperor Wanli and his two empresses were thrown into the ravine outside Baocheng, the villagers saw this coffin, which was completely intact despite the erosion on the surface. The treasure was obtained, but it was all robbed that afternoon. It seems that an elderly couple specially used these nanmu trees to ask someone to make a coffin for funeral arrangements. After the first coffin was made, the old lady kicked off her legs and passed away; The second one had just been completed, and the old man also died... I heard that it took less than half a month."
Tan Cheng has also heard of this matter. At that time in the past five years, society was already in chaos. Dingling was the only imperial mausoleum that was fully opened. At that time, those young people who did not know the so-called The corpses of Emperor Wanli and Empress were directly pulled out and burned in buckets. Legend has it that it rained that day, and the ashes mixed with rainwater flowed to unknown places... Later, many people also planned to attack other imperial mausoleums, including the Han Tomb and the Tomb of Han Dynasty. Excavation calls were sounded in Tang Tombs, Qing Tombs, etc. Zheng Zhenduo and Xia Nai immediately wrote to the State Council, requesting that this be stopped. After this report was approved by Zhou Enlai, the State Council quickly issued a document "stopping the excavation of all imperial tombs." A disaster did not come. Not taking the initiative to excavate imperial tombs became a central policy that continues to this day...
Although Qin Cheng now believes that there are real ghosts in the world, it is better not to mention the situation where his eyes are full of mummies...
"Those two old people are already old, so it's not surprising that this happened."
"Yes, this makes sense, but I'm afraid what happened next is unclear," Wu Hai paused, "I heard that five months later, among the commune members who picked up the coffin, When a coffin was thrown into Baocheng, a villager thought it was a rare piece of good wood, so he and his wife hauled the wide and thick golden nan boards piece by piece into their own field, and found someone to make two pieces. The bed cabinet was placed neatly in the main room. Later, when he and his wife returned home from work, they found that their four children were missing. When the couple walked around and returned to the house, they suddenly found four children lying next to the bed cabinet. A pair of small shoes. The two quickly opened the cabinet cover and saw four children squeezing each other, already dead. Blood stains oozed from the roots of the children's fingers, and the cabinet wall was covered with scratch marks. Local public security officers After a detailed analysis of the causes of death of the four children, we came to the conclusion that they died of suffocation due to lack of oxygen.
After the death of their four children, the couple gave birth to another four in just a few years. His only son, not long after graduating from high school, died mysteriously while lying on the bed cabinet in a quiet night... .It is said that he died of carbon monoxide poisoning caused by burning coal. "
"What can we do now? You and I both know that there are ghosts in the world. Is it possible that you still have doubts now?" Tan Cheng glanced at Wu Hai and sighed: "You really don't feel uncomfortable. This place is creepy enough as it is, telling these stories.”
"I'm not doubting, I'm just more sure of the ghost theory." Looking at the dead bodies in front of him, Wu Hai felt a little numb all over his body, "Just now, I suddenly thought, if you said we were like this, would it be wrong? Are you also cursed by this tomb and will not die a good death? When people die, they rest in peace. Aren’t we forcing our way into other people’s territory and disturbing the peace of the dead? "
Interfering with the peace of the dead? If you want to say yes, then it is indeed the case. What they did is just like Su Jingmo said, digging up other people's ancestral graves and calling it archeology... Logically speaking, it is indeed not very ethical... .
So stop? Not doing archaeological research? Not disturbing the dead?
Thinking of Su Jingmo, thinking of this person, Tan Cheng shook his head. If he wanted him not to disturb Su Jingmo, if he couldn't see Su Jingmo... he couldn't do it.
Tan Cheng not only interfered with Su Jingmo, a man who had been dead for more than a thousand years, but also put his feelings into it without authorization. What's worse! He... wants to get affection from this person, wants to hug him, kiss him, want to be one with him...
Almost crazy.
Tan Cheng took a deep breath, lowered his eyes,
"But if you want to know history and understand the skills, brilliance, and achievements of your predecessors, that's all you can do."
"This is really..." Wu Hai shook his head and stopped talking.
Wu Hai didn't speak, and Tan Cheng didn't want to talk anymore. Without the sound of the two talking, the cave seemed even more silent.
Tan Cheng walked slowly in the dark cave, and the aperture of the flashlight in his hand swayed little by little. The tomb was very quiet, so quiet that there was no sound of wind, and only the occasional ticking of water could be heard - ticking - --' sound... and the sound of the two people's footsteps walking on the rammed earth.
The star-pointed lights couldn't illuminate the way forward at all. The passage was long and the depths were even hidden in the darkness.
, obviously he couldn't see anything, but Tan Cheng's eyes were always staring ahead, as if something weird would suddenly appear in the darkness in front of him at the next moment.
After taking photos on the side, Wu Hai put away the camera and took a deep breath.
"Tin Cheng, you, do you feel that your breathing is not smooth?"
The deeper he went, the more difficult it became to breathe, as if something was stuck in his neck. Wu Hai pinched his neck and cleared his throat, but breathing was still uncomfortable.
"It's not just that it's uncomfortable to breathe, it seems... it's also a lot warmer." Breathing roughly, Tan Cheng looked around, but didn't find anything strange.
There are no ghosts, and there is no change in the hole. It is clear that there was no problem at the entrance of the hole just now, and the air is circulating...
Why do you feel like there is less air?
Thinking of this, he grabbed Wu Hai and said, "Don't go forward yet. There is a problem here."
Wu Hai had the same plan. He stopped and asked, "Did your drawings mention this situation?"
Qin Cheng thought for a while and nodded, then shook his head, "Heat can only be caused by fire. On the drawings, some tomb builders will apply phosphorus powder everywhere in the tomb. Sometimes if you rub it accidentally, it will ignite. Living people are not To be burned to death means to burn out the air and suffocate to death. However, there is no fire at all here... If phosphorus burns, it must still smell..." At this point, Tan Cheng suddenly paused No, the smell of decay in this passage is too strong, and they can't smell other smells at all.
Thinking of this, Qin Cheng said hurriedly: "Let's retreat first and see what the situation is."
"Damn, it's as hot as a steamer," the originally cold tomb gradually became stuffy. Wu Hai cursed and took off his hiking jacket, "Well, let's go back and take a look first." At this point, When Wu Hai turned around, the sight in front of him made him almost speechless and froze in place.
Not far away, flames suddenly burst out from the stone wall, emitting dazzling light and a large amount of white smoke billowing, lighting up the originally dark passage. The flames spread along the walls of the passage very quickly!
"What the hell is going on?! Why did it suddenly burst into flames!"
The flames spread too fast, igniting the mummies and rags wrapped in wax, and the retreat was immediately blocked!
Tan Cheng stepped back step by step, his eyes looking at the fire that spread out in front of him in an instant. Even the rammed earth under his feet was on fire, emitting the unpleasant and pungent smell of sulfur dioxide. Tan Cheng was surprised and said:
"This...it seems that the ground here is not rammed earth...but sulfur and red phosphorus!"
Seeing the fire getting bigger and bigger, Tan Cheng took a breath of cold air as he saw that there was a large amount of wood under the burned 'rammed earth'. The fire that found its attachment was like a demonic aura swirling around. It was gray and somewhat ferocious. As it approached, it seemed as if a bloody mouth was coming, bringing thick smoke and scorching heat, mixed with wanton whistling sounds, and The suffocating gas rapidly burned with a rattling sound, as if the heaven and earth were letting go of this gushing explosion!
"Tin Cheng, you are fucking stupid! What are you looking at? Run away!"
The way back was blocked by the terrifying fire. Wu Hai yelled and could only drag Tan Cheng and run deep into the cave.
There were also a lot of mummies hanging in front of him. In his panic, he didn't care what he bumped into. Seeing that Wu Hai had just touched the mummy, the mummy suddenly caught fire. Wu Hai's hair was accidentally burned off. Tan Cheng shouted: "Wu Hai, be careful not to touch the mummies! These mummies are probably sprinkled with phosphorus powder!"
"It's so fucking fatal!" There was a loud explosion of 'Boom--' not far behind him, and a bunch of fire was attracted to him at some point. Wu Hai hurriedly knocked out the sparks and cursed angrily: "Fuck!" Yes! It contains sulfur, red phosphorus, so you are not afraid of an explosion that will blow up the whole tomb?!"
The corridor is long and winding, and there are several pillars painted with red on the four corners. Patios with painted arches are interspersed among them. Large halberds are stored in them. Two honor guards stand in front of the halberds. Once the fire passed, they all burst under the high pressure of the fire.
If he doesn't leave this aisle, if it explodes, he and Wu Hai will definitely die!
No matter how long the corridor is, it will eventually end. When it suddenly opens up, in front of you is a white marble door that is the same as the one in front of the Sujing Modi Palace, with towering white marble eaves and ferocious beasts standing on both sides. Horrible, bared teeth, isn't it the mythical beast or some other...
Just like the stone door, there must be a top door stone buried there. Not to mention other hidden arrows, it was absolutely impossible for him and Wu Hai to push open this stone door and the top door stone after that.
The door of Su Jingmo's tomb opened automatically due to a sudden change, but later it was Su Jingmo who opened it himself, so that Tan Cheng could easily enter the tomb.
With the majestic stone gate in front of me and the raging fire behind me, there is no way forward or retreat!
"what to do?"
The fire in front of me sprayed out hot steam that ironed the entire skin, and the fire raging in the semi-enclosed space even reduced the already scarce air.
"The fire won't burn for long because there's not enough air...but I'm afraid we both will die of suffocation before the fire goes out."
Panting heavily, it became increasingly difficult to breathe, but the fire in front of him did not diminish. The dazzling firelight had already illuminated the entire space, and Tan Cheng wiped the sweat drops from his forehead.
"No, no, we can't stay here. You will definitely die if you stay here like this!" Tan Cheng shook his head, holding the jade pendant Su Jingmo gave him tightly with his left hand, looking at the protruding piece on the ground, Tan Cheng You know that this door stone is set in the ground. The tools the two of them brought were unable to dig out and remove the door stone.
The pain of lack of oxygen made Wu Hai slowly slide down with his back against the stone door, looking aside to find where he was.
Tan Cheng found the source and said in a low voice:
"Tin Cheng...that's enough, we two can't open this door..." Even though he said that, who would really give up until the last moment?
With enough light, Wu Hai looked around and saw much more clearly.
The lack of oxygen made his mind not so clear, and the picture in front of him was distorted by the steaming heat. But at this moment, Wu Hai thought of something that he would not have thought of when he was awake.
"Qin Cheng... I'm thinking now... Ahem... You said that since those people knew about this tomb, they also knew that walking along the tomb passage would be dangerous... .Then why not dig a robbery hole, back off the tomb passage from another direction, and enter the tomb directly?"
After saying this, Wu Hai suddenly laughed.
Seeing Wu Hai's eyes passing over Tan Cheng's shoulder and staring at a place behind him, Qin Cheng's eyes moved and he understood what Wu Hai meant.
Couldn't help but laugh together
"It's so right to let you come."
