Dragon Seeker

This tomb was not built by a ritual official, but the design is still very delicate.

Behind the tomb door is a cave that was completely dug out by humans. The whole thing is still in the shape of an arch bridge. It is built with stones of uniform size. It has been buried underground for two thousand years and is still very solid without any collapse.

Admittedly, this is related to the stability of the nearby crustal plates, and there are few natural disasters such as flash floods and earthquakes, but it is more related to the maturity of the tomb structure technology. After all, time is more terrible than flash floods.

Being able to do this step, and at a time when the country was destroyed and strangers were on the road, it can be seen that the Donghu was powerful.

I think if this tomb is excavated and discovered, there may be another world wonder.

Here, I finally saw the slide rope. Not far from the tomb door, a windmill-shaped behemoth with a diameter of more than 20 meters was wrapped with iron chains as thick as an adult's arm. Although it was rusty, it still showed the power of primitive machinery. It lay in the belly of the mountain like a monster, surrounded by many polished and smooth giant stone balls.

Brother Yaozi pushed it and said that the stone balls weighed at least several tons. The chute was nearly 30 meters above the ground. It was the impact of the stone balls falling from the chute that dragged the windmill and then pulled the two giant walls.

Several of us almost died in this mechanism, so we were naturally impressed by it.

"How much power does it take to build something like this!"

After witnessing the full picture of this mechanism, Lao Bai was surprisingly silent.

In fact, I understand his thoughts.

When the Donghu people were destroyed, they devoted all their efforts to build this tomb. In the end, all the survivors were buried here. What did they pay so much for?

Although we don't know the answer, it is not difficult to imagine how scary the answer is through this magnificent tomb and the amazing efforts.

As the saying goes, if you pay, you will get something. The more you pay, the more you will get.

For us, this doesn't seem to be a good thing.

"Perhaps we should be thankful that at least we brought a Zhenwu flag and killed those ghost soldiers."

I whispered to encourage everyone: "It can be seen that the biggest guardians of this tomb are the ghost soldiers in the main tomb and the old fox. The old fox deceived the heaven and hurt himself. The ghost soldiers were killed by the heroic spirits of the Zhenwu Temple, and the most powerful demon corpse was also disabled. It can be said that the biggest threats have all been eliminated. The fox has already run out of tricks. Otherwise, when we came in, I'm afraid it would not only be the flying corpse waiting for us. According to the treacherous nature of the old fox, he would like us to die as soon as possible. The big chips must be all in front of him..."

Lao Bai thought about it and seemed to think that what I said made sense. His frown gradually relaxed.

But I know in my heart that even if the biggest threat is gone, it does not mean real safety.

You must know that the reason why tombs are dangerous is that they are dangerous in the tombs themselves. I know this kind of place too well. Every step and every design is not to embellish and show off the wealth of the tomb owner, but are all ingenious killing moves. The ritual officials design tombs, in the final analysis, are carefully designing how to kill people!

Obviously, the designer of this tomb is good at this. If you make a wrong step, you will lose everything.

With this in mind, I have never let down my vigilance. I walk in the front. Whenever there is anything wrong, I have to stop and observe carefully for a long time. I will move again after confirming that nothing is wrong.

The further I go, the narrower the cave becomes, and the temperature is rising.

I know that this should be a road that gradually leads to the underground, so this situation will occur.

Gradually, the air in the cave began to become dirty and humid, and the water vapor around increased significantly. The bluestone of the arch cave above my head was covered with moss, and water kept dripping down.

"I think I know where we are now."

Old Diao said, "It's not far from where we went to the tomb, at most ten miles away. There is a big water bubble. We may be under that big water bubble now."

It's called a big water bubble, but when Old Diao gestured the area of ​​the water, I knew that it should be a lake in the mountains.

This burial pit has a huge span, and the tomb passage is winding for more than ten miles, directly reaching the bottom of the lake.

No wonder there is water seepage in the tomb, probably because the lake water seeped in.

It would have been better if Old Diao didn't say it. When he said it, I felt my legs and feet sore. It turned out that I had walked so far without realizing it.

After thinking about it, I said, "We should be entering the burial pit soon."

The tomb is under the lake. It is very difficult to build such a tomb, but it is very particular about Feng Shui, especially building a tomb under the dragon vein lake, which is even more extraordinary.

From the perspective of Feng Shui, such an arrangement is called a dragon emerging from water, and the descendants will prosper.

The tomb of Zhu Yuanzhang, the founder of the Ming Dynasty, was built under the Hongze Lake. When the Hongze Lake was severely droughted, a corner of it was exposed, which was extremely amazing.

Some Feng Shui masters even said that among Zhu Yuanzhang's descendants, except for Zhu Di, the Emperor Chengzu of the Ming Dynasty, the rest were all wonderful. Some of them were full of the aura of the protagonist, who could come back and ascend the throne again after being captured, some were emperors who had to lead the troops and fight with the Tatar soldiers, and some liked to be carpenters. In addition, there was Zhu Houzhao, who was born unrestrained and loved freedom and performed his willfulness to the fullest. In short, they all had very unique personalities. If it were placed in other dynasties, any one of them would have definitely led to the destruction of the country, but it happened that the Ming Dynasty had thirteen before it was the turn of the unlucky Zhu Youjian, which was a miracle, and it was inseparable from Zhu Yuanzhang's tomb.

I don't know whether the truth is so, but the tomb is under the dragon vein Jingshui Lake, and this pattern is indeed excellent.

Of course, the premise is that the burial technology is strong enough and the waterproofing is done well. If the coffin is flooded, it means that the coffin is flooded and the bones are soaked. The descendants will have diseases and accidents, which will become a terrible situation. After all, this so-called dragon out of water, you have to be able to get out from under the water. If you drown before waiting, how can you fly?

In general, this kind of dragon out of water situation really dare not be used.

Now that this tomb has come to the bottom of the lake, I think it is probably very confident, and it has indeed done it.

Perhaps because of the high water vapor, the cave spreads here, and there is a little green around. There are actually plants like lotus flowers growing on the ground. I can't recognize what they are. What's more peculiar is that the back of the leaves is a black and purple.

I even suspect that this plant may be very absorbent and was planted here deliberately to prevent water from flooding the tomb.

After checking all around and finding no danger, I continued on my way. The green plants on the ground were like a street stall, guiding us in which direction to go. The thick humus on the ground made the soil extremely fertile, and it was soft and comfortable to step on.

"Hey, do you smell a strange smell?"

Lao Bai's nose twitched, frowned and muttered.

"What smell is there? It's all the fishy smell of mud."

I shook my head and looked at Brother Yaozi and the others, who were also confused. Obviously, only Lao Bai smelled this smell.

"Definitely there is a smell!!"

Lao Bai was very sure that his nose was twitching, and he was using the unique skill of usurping bones and looking for fragrance in the variety of methods. He frowned and said, "It seems to be the smell of almonds."

"Maybe it's the smell of these plants."

I smiled: "I have confirmed that there is no mechanism."

Lao Bai nodded and stopped talking, but the doubts on his face never disappeared.

After walking a little further, Brother Yaozi suddenly stopped and whispered, "Something seems to be wrong. Do you feel sick?"

"No..."

Old Diaoye shook his head and said, "Did you two help the Wei family baby absorb the corpse poison, so..."

Before he finished speaking, Zhang Xinya suddenly said, "I feel a little dizzy too."

Old Diaoye and I looked at each other, but we didn't have any symptoms.

However, dizziness and nausea are typical symptoms of poisoning.

Poisoning has a lot to do with physical constitution.

I secretly said bad, there is bad air in the tomb, even poisonous gas, these three are not poisoned, right?

I carefully observed Lao Bai and found that his pupils were indeed dilated...

Zhang Xinya seemed to remember something, and pulled up a plant on the ground, and pulled out a bunch of roots that looked similar to yam, similar in shape to sweet potato, but smaller than sweet potato.

"This looks like cassava!"

I muttered, it looks like cassava, but the leaves are very different from cassava. Later, I could only attribute it to the fact that it might be a wild cassava growing in a special underground environment.

However, after seeing this scene, Zhang Xinya's face turned ugly. She covered her mouth and nose and whispered: "Don't breathe, there is poison gas here, go, leave here!!"

After that, she ran forward quickly.

Although I didn't understand, I did it immediately and quickly followed.

Facts have proved that my father's previous practice of not letting me learn math, physics and chemistry well was definitely a rural approach!

On the way, Zhang Xinya covered her mouth and nose and told me vaguely that those plants were indeed a unique kind of cassava.

Cassava contains linseed glycosides. Even illiterate people know that when soaked in water, the cyanoglycoside will dissolve in the water. This glycoside can easily be hydrolyzed into aldehydes and hydrocyanic acid.

What is hydrocyanic acid? It's hydrogen cyanide, a highly toxic substance with a faint almond smell, but not everyone can smell it, it all depends on genes.

Lao Bai smelled this thing first!

She said a lot, I didn't understand a word about academic things, you can't expect a person who relied on closing his eyes and madly outputting math, physics and chemistry in the college entrance examination to understand such high-end things, but I understood her last sentence-during World War II, **Germany often used hydrogen cyanide as a murderous gas in the gas chamber!

Now, we must leave here as soon as possible.

I'm so confused, who knows that I can encounter biological weapons in the next tomb? I suspect that those plants may be deliberately set up a murderous net, silently covering us, and we don't even know it!

In this world, tomb robbing is not allowed without culture!

Looking at the long and endless road ahead, I am desperate...
