Chapter 273 The final secret passage
Thinking of the tragic situation of tomb robbers in front of the tower before, they did not dare to doubt the degree of danger in the tomb.
Fortunately, this mechanism was finally solved.
The group of people came to the wind wall to meet up safely.
Huang Hao came to the platform just now, took out the compass and began to consider it.
He had the same idea as Lin Ran. After disabling the mechanism, there must be a secret compartment to reach the underground passage.
After all, there is just an ordinary tomb behind the windshield, and it’s not time to enter the tomb yet.
Moreover, when he was passing by the platform just now, he seemed to see footprints on the platform.
If I guessed correctly, it should be someone who was unlucky and was swallowed up by the platform.
It is unclear whether he fell into a trap or a secret passage.
Liu Jingfeng and others were thankful that if it weren't for Lin Ran and Huang Hao, they would have been destroyed long ago if they triggered the mechanism without knowing it.
"Can you find the secret passage?" Wang Jinpeng asked.
He seemed a little anxious and wanted to continue exploring behind the windshield, but it would be dangerous if no one was in front to clear the trap.
"Don't worry." Liu Jingfeng stopped Wang Jinpeng.
Lin Ran and Huang Hao were squatting on the platform, holding a compass in one hand and a flashlight in the other, checking the marks on the stone slab.
Zhenbao was not idle either, he put his hand into Qilin's mouth.
He wanted to see if there was any mystery in the mouth, such as a switch or a key.
As a result, after reaching in, I discovered that the mouth was actually empty!
This is a hole that already existed in the tomb. It seems that the people who built the tomb found that it was difficult to fill the hole in the wall, so they came up with the idea of carving a unicorn.
The connection was so seamless that others thought it was done deliberately.
What an ingenious design!
Zhenbao admired it from the bottom of his heart, and there was no clue at all.
At this time, Lin Ran, who was squatting on the ground, suddenly made a discovery.
"Brother Huang, look at this." Lin Ran called Huang Hao to his side.
Huang Hao was looking at the compass just now. After hearing this, he threw the compass aside, walked to Lin Ran and squatted down.
With the help of the flashlight, I saw that there was a horizontal axis on this stone slab.
But this horizontal axis has been integrated with the stone slab, and you can't see it at all if you don't look carefully.
Lin Ran also felt that the position of this stone slab was a bit special, it was right in the center of the formation.
They usually call it the formation eye. I just wanted to see if there was any mechanism, but unexpectedly I found the handle.
He tried to grab it with his hands, but it was so rusty that it didn't move at all.
At this time, someone with strength is needed to help.
"Wang Jinpeng, come here." They called to the strong man in the team.
Wang Jinpeng walked over carelessly. After hearing the order, he immediately started to grab the horizontal axis with his hands and lifted it up with all his strength.
The result was still no sound.
"Try to turn it around." Lin Ran said.
The movable buckle structure is mentioned in Lu Ban's book. This kind of handle may have a cross shape on the back, which is used to fix the door of the secret passage.
Wang Jinpeng pulled it up with force, blushed, finally lifted it up, and then twisted it.
There was a clicking sound from under the stone slab.
At this moment, a rock suddenly turned up on the original wind-proof wall.
The dark hole appeared in front of everyone.
Xu Ning was startled next to him, and he quickly jumped away, fearing that there was a hidden arrow shooting out from inside.
"This should be the intersection of the secret passage." Lin Ran smiled knowingly.
"Brother Lin, who did you learn Feng Shui from?" Huang Hao was really convinced by Lin Ran.
Whether it was treasure appraisal or Feng Shui skills, he was inferior to Lin Ran.
However, at this time, he no longer felt jealous.
Because Lin Ran had saved his life twice and had already accepted this team member.
"He is a retired native master, but it is difficult to tell his name." Lin Ran concealed Lu Yingjie's information.
He has retired now and should be enjoying his family life with his granddaughter.
Maybe these tomb robbers will go to Lu Yingjie's residence to learn from him.
"Yeah." Since the other party had already retreated, Huang Hao naturally didn't ask any more questions.
After all, Tufuzi is not a glorious profession, and most of them do not die well, and he can understand it.
Now with an expert like Lin Ran, their team can definitely reach a higher level.
Huang Hao is convinced of this.
After exchanging pleasantries, he did not delay any further.
Everyone came to the entrance of the cave and looked at the black hole in front of them, with excitement on their faces.
This may be the end for them.
This big tomb is really full of suspense, one link after another.
Only by seeing the tomb owner and knowing his true identity can the truth be revealed.
This group of tomb robbers are not only interested in cultural relics, but also in the buried history.
This wave made a lot of money!
"Brother Lin, do you think this cave can be entered?" Liu Jingfeng asked.
Unconsciously, Lin Ran's opinion was enough to decide the direction of their team.
"There should be a mechanism in the cave, but this should be the road leading to the main tomb." Lin Ran replied.
"Okay, let's set off." Liu Jingfeng nodded and signaled everyone to get ready.
"Let me take the lead, you follow me." Wang Jinpeng said bravely.
"Don't be too careless, just stand behind me." Zhenbao whispered.
He is the only trap expert in the entire team.
Zhenbao has learned the secret technique of gold-touching from the Tuishan sect since he was a child, which contains clues to various ancient tombs.
He even studied the mechanisms of Qin Shihuang's mausoleum, but he lacked the words and deeds of people who had studied Qin's mausoleum, and he didn't know whether those mechanisms were real.
The Qin Mausoleum is the ultimate goal of this group of tomb robbers.
Therefore, other institutions are as easy for them as college students doing elementary school questions.
Of course, the premise is that he must know the existence of the agency.
No one said too much. After setting up the formation, Zhenbao walked at the front of the team, followed closely by Wang Jinpeng, helping him follow the path forward, backward and left.
Everyone stepped into this mysterious entrance.
After entering the black hole, Lin Ran couldn't help but frown.
The light inside is darker than expected, and even with a searchlight, it is almost impossible to see the bottom.
In the cave, the echo is obvious.
Wang Jinpeng took the lamp and shined it at the steps, and was startled.
Because this was not a closed tomb, they were walking on bluestone-carved steps with various patterns on them.
However, there are cliffs on both sides.
You can't even see the bottom with a searchlight, it's at least 30 meters high.
This can make their hearts hang high. If they fall, they will be shattered to pieces.
No wonder the bluestone bricks have to be engraved with patterns, just to increase the friction at the bottom, otherwise the craftsmen who built the mausoleum would only narrowly escape death!
