Chapter 32 Return to the original owner
Although this iron table is a bit heavy, it cannot withstand a "crane" like Dashou Liu. When Dashou Liu shouted, the iron table squeaked to the right side and was pulled out a large part.
"Brother Liu... Wait..." Zhang Guozhong wanted to let Big Hand Liu You take a little bit, but it was too late. Big Hand Liu's strength was obviously much stronger than Zhang Guozhong's side. In this competition, the iron table was pulled out by less than one foot. Although Zhang Guozhong tried his best, he only pulled it one or two inches. The uneven displacement of both sides made the iron table stuck between the stones on both sides. No matter how hard the three of them pulled it, they could not move.
"Slow...!!" At this moment, I suddenly heard Lao Liu's head shouting. Several people turned around at the same time. Following the flashlight of Lao Liu's head and Qin Ge, I saw a "snake" about the length of an adult's arm and the thickness of an inner tube of a bicycle slowly crawling in from the crack at the door. Under the strong white light, the head of this thing looked like a "pangolin" and did not seem to have no eyes at all. There was a small black dot with scattered residue on its forehead, which was a bit like the "compound eyes" of some insects. It flashed and reflected under the flashlight. I wonder if it was the so-called "eyes".
"Is this Jiao Chi..." Zhang Guozhong turned around slowly and involuntarily pulled out the Juque Sword, "Didn't it mean that he has no eyes?"
"How could I know..." Old Liutou and Qin Ge couldn't help but take two steps back, "Don't bother... Don't mess with it..."
At this moment, the rustling sound outside the stone gate gradually became smaller. There were about a dozen more "heads" leaning into the secret room in the gap between the stone gate, but they did not crawl in. It seemed that the "Jiao Chi" who climbed into the secret room first was a bit similar to a "scout."
"What is this thing capable of..." Qin Ge raised his pistol and saw that the "Jiao Chi" opposite him spit out black "Xinzi" from time to time. Unlike ordinary snakes, the time it takes for this thing to spit out a letter is obviously longer. The black "Xinzi" is like the savings of a centipede. It has to stay outside its mouth for more than ten seconds before it will be taken back. Judging from the length, color and movement of these "Xinzi", it is very similar to the "tennis" protruding out of the gaps in the chains of the "iron corpse".
"The records in ancient books are 'Life and tomb*, and it will perish when touched'..." Zhang Guozhong said, "It's better not to touch it..." Zhang Guozhong shook the Juque sword, but this thing is different from the ordinary "Quo Chi". It seems that it is not afraid of Juque, and it keeps climbing forward and makes noises from time to time. At this time, the "Jiao Chi" staying at the door also began to crawl into the cave one after another.
"Born in a tomb? So it's really an ancient tomb? Could it be Qin Shihuang's tomb?" As the increase in the "Jiaoqi" in the house increased, Qin Ge began to retreat with everyone to the stone bed in the corner of the wall.
"If there was this thing, it might not be Qin Shihuang's tomb, maybe it was the tomb of a prince..." Zhang Guozhong also felt sweaty on his face. He stepped back a few steps and went onto the stone bed. At this time, there was no way to retreat. "What should I do..." When the formation was just completed, Zhang Guozhong was quite happy, thinking that he could escape from this ghost place, but he didn't expect that the iron-locked corpse would not move, but attracted a bunch of bigger heads. The most serious thing was that he was blocked in a dead end...
"Dad..." Zhang Yicheng was also stunned and carefully followed Zhang Guozhong to the stone bed. At this time, Sun Ting and Alxun also followed. As Dashou Liu jumped onto the stone bed for the last time, he heard a faint "bang" sound under the bed.
"Did you hear anything?" Zhang Guozhong thought he was not listening. "I seemed to hear the sound of a stone falling to the ground... It was from under our feet..."
"It seems..." It seems that Sun Ting also heard it.
"Everyone stand up and don't fall down..." Zhang Guozhong stabilized his body and jumped on the stone bed with all his might. As Zhang Guozhong's feet fell down, several "slap" sounds came from under the stone bed.
"There are...the secret passages...!!" Old Liu and Sun Ting said in unison almost in unison, and almost half-kneeled and began to check the edge of the bed. It didn't matter. The bed board was actually chiseled out of a whole piece of bluestone slab, about ten centimeters thick. The bed was tired of bluestone tiles sitting under the bed. There seemed to be adhesive between the bricks, but it was almost corroded. The gap was very deep and some places could be transparent. Use a flashlight to shine through the transparent area of the gap, and I saw that the inside was dark and it seemed to be hollow.
"It'll be better to find out earlier..." Old Liu began to regret that he had just been shopping for ancient goods and forgot to observe the bed. At this moment, even though he knew that there was a secret passage under the bed, the four outsides were all "Qiu Chi" and there was danger. This is one of the more deadly things. The whole bluestone bed weighed less than one ton, and even with the big hand Liu Zai, it would be difficult to move...
"The stone bricks here seem to have been moved by someone..." Sun Ting suddenly shouted, "It seems that people have gone down here! Then he put the stone bricks back from the inside..."
After hearing Sun Ting's shout, Zhang Guozhong immediately lay on the edge of the bed. When he saw that the large bluestones under the bed were indeed uneven. "Here...!" Zhang Guozhong shouted and began to push the bluestone bricks with his arms. It didn't matter if this push was almost flashing, and he felt that the bluestone bricks had no weight at all and were definitely not proportional to their size.
"Why... so light..." Zhang Guozhong didn't care about complaining, and gave Sun Ting a wink. The two of them began to lie on the bed and experiment with their hands one by one. After a while, seven or eight "light" stone bricks were stabbed out of the "secret passage". A large hole that was enough for one person to drill into was immediately appeared on the bottom of the bed. "Everyone, get down! I'll break the back!" Zhang Guozhong stood up, pulled out the other "Tianlu" dagger from Zhang Yicheng's waist, and jumped to the ground. The "Quqi" around was slowly crawling towards the stone bed. Zhang Guozhong rushed around and surrounded Zhang Guozhong again.
"Dad..." Zhang Yicheng's legs were weak, "You...you can do it?"
"Go down quickly..." Zhang Guozhong cut his arm with Tianlu, rubbed it on the ground, and then took out a few copper coins from his pocket and placed it on the ground.
On the bed, Alxun led the way and drilled into the secret passage through the hole under the bed, followed by Sun Ting, Qin Ge, Zhang Yicheng, Liu and Lao Liutou. Seeing everyone getting into the secret passage, Zhang Guozhong hurriedly placed the last copper coin next to the Tianlu dagger. Then he calmed down and stepped onto the stone bed. He saw that the "Quo Chi" around him surrounded Xiaoqi Pass. Although the Xiaoqi Pass and the evil weapon inserted in the middle were originally used to deal with evil ghosts (When in the district of Bashan, Lao Liutou used this method to attract "Thousand Souls"), the "Quo Chi" was very close to the evil ghosts. Theoretically, it should have some effect. Although he was not mentally clear before, it seemed that it was actually effective at this time.
"Bless you..." Although he was a little reluctant to leave Tianlu dagger, he was also reluctant to leave the child and could not trap the wolf at this moment. Finally, he looked at Tianlu, and Zhang Guozhong breathed a sigh of relief and tiptoed down the secret passage.
As soon as the secret passage was approached, Zhang Guozhong saw the "light" stone bricks that were stabbed in just now. They saw that these bricks were originally "hollow", facing outward and "concave" under the bed. The entire secret passage was only one meter, two or three high, about 60 cm wide, which was similar to the tunnel in the movie "Tunnel Warfare". The quality of the entire secret passage was completely different from the secret chamber outside. It was definitely not like the supporting project of this "Tunnel Pool". It was very similar to the escape passage secretly dug by the workers who built the "Tunnel Pool". Turning on the flashlight, Zhang Guozhong found that the secret passage was more or less sloped, and the place more than twenty meters ahead was Lao Liu's butt.
"Guozhong, hurry up! Keep up!" Old Liu found a flashlight behind him, and knew that it was Zhang Guozhong who had come down.
"Here..." Zhang Guozhong began to walk in as fast as possible. Sometimes, from time to time, he would see some ancient texts on the wall of the secret path, but he really couldn't see clearly and had no time to study it carefully...
I don’t know how far I walked, but Zhang Guozhong only felt that the secret passage was getting steeper and steeper. At this time, Alxun, who was in front, suddenly stopped, "Don’t stop... Go quickly..." Old Liu shouted.
"Young Master, look at this..." At this moment, Alxun seemed to hand something to Sun Ting behind him, and took the thing. Sun Ting didn't say anything for a long time, so he simply handed the thing to Qin Ge behind him. "Give this to your father..." Qin Ge glanced at the thing in his hand, smiled slightly, and handed the thing to Zhang Yicheng.
"Go away quickly..." Old Liu was impatient and was about to shout, but suddenly Liu Yi turned around and handed him the dagger to him and took it. The old Liu, who had always been calm, almost became insane on the spot. The dagger was as if it had been burned by fire. Two seal characters "Wen Tian" were engraved on the dagger.
After taking the dagger, Zhang Guozhong was also mentally ill, but at this moment there was no time to think too much. He inserted "Wentian" into his waist and began to continue to drill forward. After walking for less than two steps, Old Liu suddenly stopped again, "Senior Brother? What's wrong?" Zhang Guozhong asked.
"Do you know why that dagger is inserted here?" Old Liu said.
"Oh, senior brother, let's go out and discuss this matter! 'Tianlu' is not a very powerful thing, it can't last a few minutes!" Zhang Guozhong really couldn't figure out why Old Liu was still intent on asking such boring questions at this critical moment.
"Look at this..." Old Liu lowered his head and pulled out a copper coin from the soil and handed it to Zhang Guozhong, "He will do whatever you do..."
After taking the copper coins, Zhang Guozhong took a closer look, "Qianlong Tongbao..." It seems that someone has also passed the Xiaoqi Pass here...
After about three or four minutes of walking, after everyone turned around a small bay, Alxun stopped leaving. "There is water in front of him!" Turning back, Alxun's voice seemed a little desperate...
"Water..." Although Zhang Guozhong was puzzled, the secret passage was too narrow and could not be squeezed through. "What water?"
"It's just a pool of water! It seems to be quite deep, and I don't know anything..." Alxun picked up a small stone and threw it into the water. Judging from the sound of the stone entering the water, the water seemed to be very deep.
At this moment, another rustling sound came from behind, and the few people who heard it were immediately frightened. "Go down! You should be able to go out!" Zhang Guozhong said, "The person who wrote the poem went out from here...!"

Kan: pronounced "Ghost", which means a thief. Tomb means stealing the tomb of the king. In ancient times, especially in the Feng Shui category of burial sites, "ling", "tomb", "tom" and "tom" were different; imperial tombs are "ling", and generals and ministers are "tom" or "tom", and only the tombs of ordinary people are called "toms". There are many considerations in the Feng Shui choices, scale, area, coffin, and the direction of the tomb owner's body. (To be continued)
