So far, Ji Thrush and his party had no choice but to become downright tomb robbers.
It has been nearly five hours since several people entered the tomb. According to the time, it should be dawn outside.
And according to Ye Lianna's divination yesterday, the paladins who have been following them are about to arrive at Mount Li.
I don't know how many people the other party brought here this time, but no matter what, when they go out with an army of tens of thousands of zombies, they will inevitably meet with the pursuers.
But what Dong Jing is worried about now is not how to deal with the pursuers in the future, but Zhu Zi who is still outside the robbery cave at this time, and Uncle Zhong who was bitten by a centipede and whose life or death is uncertain.
He can only comfort himself, Zhuzi is a clever and vigilant person, and if the situation is not right, he must know how to respond accordingly.
In addition, although I have made up my mind to enter the main tomb where the emperor's coffin is, but after tossing for a long time in the dark, closed and closed underground palace, everyone, especially Irina, who is just an ordinary fifteen-year-old girl, is already feeling tired .
So they found a straight path, and after confirming that there was no danger, they sat together, made some repairs, and planned how to go next.
"If the poor monk's guess is correct, our current location is approximately directly behind the front room."
While nibbling on a piece of dry food pancake, Master Ming Jun drew a sketch of the tomb with water on the ground.
"Continue to the west, and you should be in the back room—that is, where the main tomb is."
Dong Jing leaned over to look at the map, "How far is it?"
"Not far."
The fat monk replied:
"About sixty feet."
Ji Thrush quickly calculated the distance in his heart, sixty feet, or two hundred meters, was indeed a distance within walking distance.
It's just that they have already experienced the horror of the tomb in front of them. It doesn't matter that there are many dangerous traps, but there are also small gadgets such as centipedes that are hard to guard against.
"Go, let's go!"
Hearing that it was very close to the main tomb, the second young master of the Dong family immediately cheered up.
He swallowed the scones in two or three gulps, took a few more sips of water, wiped his mouth boldly with his sleeve, and stood up suddenly:
"As long as we find the Tiger Talisman, we can get 10,000 elite soldiers!"
From the human sacrifice pit to the main tomb is a straight main tomb passage, which is much wider than the passage that Ji Thrush and the others drilled before, and it is also more beautifully built.
The tomb passage is paved with flat floor tiles, and the putty on the walls is firm and meticulous, and after thousands of years, there is not even a single crack. When the glowing paper figurines flew by, Ji Thrush could still see the continuous and exquisite paintings on the walls and ceiling.
For some reason, when he knew that before the death of the great emperor of the previous dynasty, he still wanted to lead the army to reorganize the country one day, Ji Xiaoniao had a vague feeling in his heart that this was a tomb passage for the king, so it was built like this Sophisticated and gorgeous.
Since it is the way the emperor wants to go, it is naturally impossible to arrange traps such as falling rocks and quicksand, flipping arrows and crossbows in an unsightly way.
Ji Thrush and his team walked carefully all the way, but they thought that Liushizhang, which was going to be dangerous, came to the end with ease.
What appeared in front of them was a door.
The door is made of wood, but it is only painted with a layer of black paint. I don't know what kind of texture this wood is. It hasn't been decayed for a thousand years, and it hasn't been deformed in the slightest. The clang of metal hitting.
The door was unlocked, supposedly left in case the Emperor could emerge from his coffin someday.
Master Ming Jun and Ji Thrush, one on the left and one on the right, pushed open the black door together.
The inside of the door is not as dark as other places in the tomb.
On the contrary, the house is quite bright.
There are two oil lamps hanging on both sides of the door lintel. Although there are only two flames as big as beans, they are enough to illuminate everything around them.
Ji Thrush stared at the golden-white flames of the oil lamps for a moment, and felt that they were very similar to his own rainy night lamps, and then suddenly thought that these two lamps must have been burning here for a thousand years and have not been extinguished. The ever-burning lamp lit with shark oil!
After entering the door, there is a huge stone tablet in front of you. It is densely engraved with the great achievements of the former emperor and the words of praise and praise. It is a pity that the seal is used, and Ji Xuan can't even recognize a single word.
Of course, they didn't have time to ponder the inscription.
According to the instructions of the fat monk, they carefully walked around the stone tablet that was equivalent to the "screen wall" and entered the main tomb.
There are more ever-burning lamps in the tomb, and countless pearls and fluorites are inlaid on the walls. Although the space is too large, it is not very bright, but it is enough for Ji Thrush and his party to see all the details inside.
"See the doors on both sides?"
Master Mingjun stretched out a fat finger, pointed at both sides of the main tomb, and explained with all his heart:
"That's the side tomb. If the historical records are correct, the Empress Tian and the beloved concubine Ji should be buried."
As he spoke, he raised his finger again.
"Look, the main hall ahead is the emperor's coffin."
When the fat monk said these two sentences, Ji Thrush had already opened his eyes wide, his lips were slightly parted, and he was too surprised to speak.
What appeared in front of his eyes was a huge tomb of hundreds of square meters.
The tomb is extremely empty, and in the middle there is a high marble platform with a height of half a person. On the high platform is a huge coffin, which is as wide as a king-size bed in a six-star ultra-luxury hotel. It is definitely not a problem to sleep three or five people. , I don't know how many layers are put inside to make it so wide.
Other than that, there was nothing else in the tomb, not even the funerary objects that Ji Thrush and the others were used to seeing along the way.
Accompanying the coffin on the high platform for thousands of years are only the scrolls of mountains and rivers on the wall of the tomb, and the sun, moon and stars inlaid with gemstones such as fluorite, pearl, mother-of-pearl, jade, and colored glaze all over the dome.
While admiring the ingenuity of the ancients in his heart, Ji Thrush secretly felt lucky.
The former emperor lying in the coffin, although he also likes to sleep with the mountains, rivers, sun and moon, is not like the legendary emperor of the ages, imitating the Milky Way with mercury. The concentration of mercury vapor can directly smoke them to sudden death on the spot.
"this… "
Went smoothly into the main tomb, and saw the huge coffin of the emperor with his own eyes. The second young master of the Dong family, who had always been fearless, felt stage fright at this moment for some reason.
"Cough... Shall we go and pry open the coffin?"
"Don't worry."
The fat monk stretched out his hand and stopped him very calmly.
"According to the records of the poor monk's teacher, there is a tomb-preserving magic weapon left by the ancient sages here. Those who dare to covet the imperial tomb will be punished by heaven."
Master Mingjun originally came for the legendary treasures in the mausoleum, so he naturally did a lot of research on them, so he cautiously reminded:
"We'd better not approach rashly."
After speaking, he took out the damaged vajra from his waist, held the pestle in his right hand, and rested the other end on his shoulder, made a posture very similar to a modern javelin, and threw it out with a shout.
Ji Thrush felt that although the fat monk's strength was not as amazing as Mr. Dagen's, but in his original world, it was still safe to win the provincial shot put championship.
The vajra made of fine iron flew straight for nearly thirty meters, and it was about to land in front of the coffin.
Suddenly, a golden light flashed across the entire tomb. Caught off guard, the brightness blinded everyone's eyes, and they instinctively stretched out their hands to protect their eyes.
And at the moment when everyone was temporarily blinded by the strong light, they heard a loud bang, and when they were finally able to see things clearly again, they all gasped.
I saw Master Ming Jun's vajra lying on the floor, its whole body scorched black, the brass cladding that hadn't peeled off completely had been baked into copper water at high temperature, and it was still emitting black smoke.
"Grandfather!"
Dong Jing was sweating profusely, and his calves felt a little weak.
If the fat monk hadn't stopped him just now, he would be burnt on the outside and tender on the inside, crispy and crispy.
"When exactly did it just happen?"
The second young master of the Dong family rubbed his eyes that were stung into tears by the strong light, while retreating three steps in a row, he asked tremblingly.
Ji Xiaoniao and the fat monk shook their heads.
It happened suddenly, and there was strong light blocking it, even Ren Jianmo couldn't see what happened just now.
"try again."
Ren Jian thought for a while, then took out a few more "Onmyoji Shikigami (Advanced)", wrote a few words on one of them, and let it fly out.
The paper figurine flew into the air, turned into a white fox in a flash.
"Onmyoji Shikigami (Advanced)" can not only perform simple command actions and send short messages, but also has certain combat effectiveness.
It can randomly turn into a night moth, a big dog or a fox, and lock on a specific target to attack.
This time, Ren Jianmo used its combat function.
The white fox turned over in mid-air, like a lightning bolt, and rushed straight towards the coffin in the center of the tomb.
— Swish!
—Boom!
It was bright light and loud noise again.
After two blows, the fragile little paper figurine turned into powder in an instant without leaving a wisp of smoke.
With the experience from the previous time, everyone knew that this time they should be on guard against the white light hurting their eyes, so they used their hands to cover in advance.
But even so, the second young master of the Dong family and Master Mingjun were still screaming from the sting of the strong light, and the poor Yi Lianna couldn't even open her eyes, so she hid in a corner with self-knowledge and silently shed tears.
"Again."
Ji Thrush wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes, thought for a while, took out the space ring, and took out two night vision goggles.
He adjusted the shading rate of the glasses to the highest level, put on a pair himself, and handed the other pair to Ren Damei, his family.
"I seem to see some clues."
Ren Jianmo put on the night vision goggles, and the entire tomb immediately went dark. Even the high platform and the coffin in front of him could only be seen as vague outlines. Only bright lights or luminous objects such as fluorite could be seen in his field of vision. There are bright spots, big or small.
He released another paper figurine.
The little paper man turned into a white fox and flew towards the coffin again.
— Swish!
—Boom!
"I see!"
After the loud noise, there was the excited cry of the thrush:
"It's two mirrors! It's two mirrors hanging from the roof!"
