I continued telling this story to Sisi for a long time, and it was already dusk.
No one even had the heart to eat dinner and headed straight to the Sword Emperor's Tomb.
Since the two spaces have been connected, there is no need to enter from the Lu family's side as before. The original location of the sword pool has been pierced by the sword shadow to create a huge hole, so one can go down directly.
Tang Buqi's statement that "there is no back mountain" is not so exaggerated. The entire Tiger Hill is still there, but it is a bit messy. The location of the sword pond has become a big pit, and the surrounding area is also a tragic scene of broken trees and rocks. But in fact, it is still a good place, and it lives up to the name of "forbidden land".
Some members of the Tang family were guarding the edge of the pit very carefully. There was still a small amount of sword energy occasionally emitted from it, and there was also a strong evil spirit lingering in it, which was very dangerous at first glance. Even without Tang Wanzhuang's strict order, no one of the cowards of the Tang family dared to touch it.
Tang Wanzhuang originally planned to wait for a few days for the sword energy to dissipate, until the ground below stabilized and Zhao Changhe's injuries healed, and then explore together. But for no apparent reason, there was a sudden tremor below, so she could no longer wait and had to find out the cause immediately.
And it was not Tang Wanzhuang who came alone, but all the elite members of the Demon Suppression Division gathered together, including Wu Weiyang who came from afar and hundreds of other elite soldiers. They divided the work among themselves and began to survey every road in the mausoleum in an orderly manner.
Their organization and professionalism show that they are extremely experienced in this type of investigation.
But Zhao Changhe still trusted Sisi more. She was originally a survivor of the last era, and no one knew the architectural style and prohibition types of the last era better than her. Maybe there were a lot of similar mausoleums where she lived.
Look, finding the way that day was just like going home. She found out where there was less sword energy and where the main tomb was, all the efforts of generations of Lu family members who had been exploring for generations, in the blink of an eye. Even if the Demon Suppression Division was professional, it probably couldn't reach this level.
This time was the same, while the people from the Demon Suppression Division surveyed everywhere, Zhao Changhe and Sisi went straight to the main gate of the mausoleum. If there was any problem, it would most likely be in the main mausoleum and not in the outer passages.
Tang Wanzhuang followed the two of them silently to protect them.
Arriving outside the main mausoleum gate, the body of the old man from the Lu family was still on the ground, with the afterglow of his death still on his face. Infected by the strong evil spirit around him, he still gave people a sense of strength, and he looked a little stronger than the weak appearance before his death, as if he could get up at any time and give you another sword.
Zhao Changhe said: "My first reaction was that the evil spirit drove this corpse to transform, but it seems that is not the case."
Tang Wanzhuang nodded. Zhao Changhe's guess made sense. The evil spirit here was still strong. Under the strong killing intent, the unconscious sword energy could rush out by itself. It was not surprising that the body got up and chopped randomly. At present, it didn't look like it had any chance to get up at any time.
This further proves the possibility of the Sword Emperor's revival.
Tang Wanzhuang looked at the heavy stone door. The main mausoleum was inside. The main mausoleum was not just a tomb chamber. It also had a huge building complex. The guards inside were no longer the simple sword spirits outside. Who knows how many terrifying murderous intentions were hidden inside.
The so-called vibration comes from inside.
If nothing unexpected happened, Tang Wanzhuang felt that the "permanent closure of this place" proposed by Zhao Changhe before was the best answer. There was no need to touch the tomb of the predecessors, and it was enough to pretend that it did not exist. But since something unexpected happened, it had to be resolved, right
But the door won’t open, and I don’t even know what happened. How can I solve this problem
Zhao Changhe was asking Sisi: "Do you know how to open this door? You can't just chop it open like this old man, right?"
"Of course not. That would only anger the Emperor's Mausoleum again."
"Then how do we get in? Are there traps in the passage outside?"
Sisi said seriously, "When people see a door, they always want to open it, but they never think about it. This is someone else's tomb. Do you want others to enter after you are buried? Why do you want to leave a mechanism that can be opened from the outside?"
"Well, why make a door-shaped one then?"
"Because the tomb was built before his death, the door is for him to enter when he dies. Or if he dies outside, his relatives or apprentices will carry him in... The meaning of the door is that once it is closed, the mechanism will be disconnected and it will be closed forever. If you were to design your own tomb, it would be the same. There would be no setting for it to be opened by outsiders."
"That makes sense... Then how did those tomb robbers do it?"
"A mausoleum is nothing but bricks, stones and soil. We can dig into it, but no one dares to dig or blow up the tomb of such a powerful being. If we are not careful, we will die without a complete body." Sisi sighed, "But in fact, it is not that difficult. We can use some corrosive drugs to slowly melt a hole in this heavy stone door silently. It will not make any noise and will not trigger any restrictions." Zhao Changhe widened his eyes, "There is such a thing?"
Sisi glanced at Tang Wanzhuang who had been listening quietly. "I don't have any, but the Demon Suppression Division must have something similar. Daxia has been established for so many years, so there must be a lot of similar tombs that have been explored."
Tang Wanzhuang finally said, "I do, but there is also a type of restriction that will be triggered if the door is damaged in any way. This method may not be stable. I wanted to hear if you have any other ideas."
"No." Sisi shook her head and said, "I mean this door doesn't have such a restriction. Because this silent method that does not trigger any movement is a solution summarized by tomb robbers after many deaths, so later mausoleums also began to deal with this item, but the Sword Emperor fell earlier, and in his time, people didn't pay attention to these things."
Zhao Changhe stood aside with his hands in his pockets, like a freshman listening to a professor's lecture.
Even Tang Wanzhuang's eyes flashed with surprise. This knowledge of the previous era was a bit outrageous. You actually know in which year the Sword Emperor died
Most people's impression of the powerful beings in the last era is that they died in the doomsday when the era collapsed. Few people think seriously that the time span of the last era itself is unknown, and it has multiple historical periods. Even if people think about it, it is difficult to verify because it spans across eras, and it is difficult to confirm the era corresponding to each legendary figure.
Let alone the history of the last era, even the history of this era is still unclear... At least the Demon Suppression Division doesn't know the year when the Sword Emperor died.
Tang Wanzhuang did not question Sisi's judgment. She took out a bottle and gently sprinkled some water-like substance on the door.
Not long after, a corner of the hard and heavy stone door began to soften and become brittle visibly. Even Zhao Changhe felt it. He tried to use the Dragon Bird to dig gently and dug through it effortlessly.
Zhao Changhe was a little shocked: "There really is such water. If people drink a little of it, it would be more terrible than any poison, right?"
How to choose this tech tree...
"It's hard to make it tasteless and difficult to poison, so be careful about getting splashed." Tang Wanzhuang said simply, and then bent down and crawled into the small hole.
Looking at her bending over to drill the hole, Sisi curled her lips and said, "I didn't realize your butt is so perky."
Tang Wanzhuang: “…”
Zhao Changhe stroked his forehead and said, "You really have time to spare. Go and get in. I'll cover you."
"You want to see my butt, right? Go there first!" Sisi pretended to kick him away.
Zhao Changhe rolled his eyes, too lazy to pay attention to her, and went in first.
In fact, he knew what Sisi was afraid of.
Just like Chi Chi back then... Chi Chi said, don't show your back to others... Especially in this small space, facing the treasure that may exist ahead.
Tang Wanzhuang showed her sincerity and had overwhelming force, so she was not afraid of sneak attacks, so she took the lead.
But Sisi didn't dare... In fact, Sisi should have known that even if there would be changes, it would not be possible to start when nothing had been seen yet. She didn't do things that way... She just instinctively and subconsciously chose to do it at the end.
She said that they were just playing and fighting like friends, but in her heart, she had never trusted anyone.
