Chapter 641 Behind the tomb door
Chapter 641 Behind the tomb door
Although the distance was less than three meters, the stone slab on the opposite side was very narrow, so I had to jump over it with the help of iron chains to barely keep my feet.
Wang Jinpeng jumped over first, and then quickly moved out of the way to leave it to the next person.
In this way, one by one, they came to the opposite rock wall.
Another strong wind blew by, and everyone pressed their bodies tightly against the mountain wall.
There were no chains to hold onto now, so they could only lower their bodies to prevent them from being blown away by the strong wind.
"Hold on to the wall and lower your center of gravity. We can go on." Lin Ran said to everyone after the wind calmed down a little.
The group of people moved along the edge of the slightly protruding rock wall at their feet towards the platform below.
The iron chains behind them kept making collision sounds under the influence of the strong wind, which made them even more chilling!
Fortunately, there were no accidents and they finally reached the platform where the tomb door was located.
"What kind of design is this!" Even the brave Wang Jinpeng's palms were covered in cold sweat.
No wonder no one has robbed the tomb for so long. Even if they were discovered, it would cost them half their lives to get over.
There is a huge crack in the rock wall, and a stone door blocks the crack tightly.
Everyone tried pushing, but nothing moved.
"This should be the tomb door." Lin Ran thought to himself.
Originally, the tomb door of the mausoleum should be intact.
But now it is exposed to the mountains, wind and sun, and some cracks have appeared in the door frame.
Lin Ran checked the rock wall and found no trace of the mechanism, so he said to Wang Jinpeng: "Try to break it open with brute force."
"Okay." Wang Jinpeng rubbed his hands, then took out a shovel and tapped on the edge to make it looser.
After going to the grave several times, he is no longer the novice he was at the beginning.
But he still dealt with it for a long time.
There wasn't much space on the platform, and everyone was carrying bags, chest to back.
From time to time there was a dark wind blowing, Liu Jingfeng was a little anxious and asked: "Why haven't you opened it for so long?"
Even in the severe cold environment, Wang Jinpeng still wiped the cold sweat on his forehead with his hand: "The tomb door opens outward!"
This means that there is no way to push the door down directly, but it needs to be tilted outward.
Originally, the platform was very narrow and could not accommodate a stone door.
"You work harder and dig deeper."
"Okay, give me some time."
When I came out just now, the sky was still a little bright, but now it's completely dark.
A Ming and Huang Hao, who were in poor health, were already trembling.
"Can you hurry up?" Huang Hao said anxiously.
The temperature on the mountain was already low, and the wind kept blowing, so people were almost freezing.
Wang Jinpeng gritted his teeth and inserted the shovel into the crack of the door.
Finally, the solid stone door began to loosen.
"Get out of the way, I'm going to push it away."
"Let me help you!" Lin Ran said decisively. Since they couldn't move away from each other at all, instead of letting Wang Jinpeng use his strength, they might as well push the door hard together.
The stone door had just been pushed inward a little, when suddenly, a large number of black shadows flew out from the small crack in the stone door.
Because he couldn't help, A Ming, who was standing at the edge of the platform, was hit by the black shadow inside.
There was some imbalance to begin with, and the moment he touched it, his body tilted away from the platform.
"A Ming!" Liu Jingfeng wanted to reach out to catch A Ming, but the distance was not enough.
Seeing that he was about to fall, a pair of big hands surrounded A Ming from behind.
It was Lin Ran who realized something was wrong when he opened the door. A Ming's face turned pale, and he finally stood firm with Lin Ran's help.
"Thank you..." He was in shock. After climbing up, he knelt on the ground directly. There were even tears in his eyes. It looked like he was very frightened.
Lin Ran also turned pale, this trip was so dangerous!
Others used flashlights to shine on the flying black monsters, which turned out to be a group of bats.
Because the door was opened, the bat was frightened and flew out directly.
Fortunately, only a small crack was opened, and the bats flew upwards. If they were directly hit by them, everyone would be thrown off the cliff.
After flying for about 5 minutes, no bats continued to fly out of the cave.
Seeing that there was no threat, Wang Jinpeng continued to push the door open.
Everyone only heard a clang as the tomb door was pushed into the cave, making a loud sound like a huge stone falling to the ground.
Immediately afterwards, a burst of air came.
"Squat down!" Lin Ran quickly shouted to everyone.
The moment Wang Jinpeng opened the door, Lin Ran pushed him to the ground.
Everyone felt a strong pulling force, trying to pull them to the edge of the cliff.
If Lin Ran hadn't reminded them in time, they would have fallen into the abyss at this moment.
A wave of waves has risen again.
Fortunately, in the end, they finally successfully opened the stone door.
"What happened just now?" Liu Jingfeng felt that the pulling force was no longer there, so he stood up carefully.
"There is a difference in air pressure between the inside and outside." Lin Ran said, "It is already windy here, and because of the sealed environment, the air pressure inside will be relatively high. When the door is opened, the air pressure inside and outside will automatically adjust, which is why the door is so difficult to push open. ."
Lin Ran explained, not caring whether they understood or not.
They stood at the entrance of the cave and shined flashlights into it. No one dared to step in rashly.
Seeing that the atmosphere was so awkward, Wang Jinpeng stood up and patted the dust on his body, then picked up a flashlight and prepared to walk in, cursing and saying: "For such a dangerous tomb, if the reward is not generous enough, let's kill him The ancestral grave has been dug.”
"We were originally digging ancestral graves." Huang Hao also came to his senses and stood up.
A Ming could no longer stand the terrifying environment outside and ran in quickly.
Wang Jinpeng walked in front with a flashlight in one hand.
This is a cave that spreads underneath. A group of people followed him and walked towards the depths of the cave.
After walking a few steps, I found that the cave was winding and rugged, and not only the walls but also the ground were uneven.
The ground was still wet and slippery, so they slowed down.
Lin Ran had been paying attention to the surrounding environment. Through the flashlight, he could see that the cave was tilting downward.
On both sides of the cave, at a height of about one meter, there are special plants growing.
"What kind of plant is this? It can grow in places without light?" Lin Ran was a little surprised. This was not seaweed. It looked like moss, but upon closer inspection, it had spikes.
He reminded everyone not to touch the plants as they might be poisonous.
The situation inside the cave is not static. Every time you walk, the internal structure will change.
Sometimes it was narrow enough for one person to pass through, and sometimes it was wide enough like a platform for six of them to stand side by side.
After walking about 100 meters, I found that there was a dead end ahead.
To be precise, it's not a complete dead end, but a crack.
The crack is so close to the ground that one can only crawl through it.
Wang Jinpeng did not dare to move forward rashly and stopped.
Lin Ran lay down in front of the crack, listening to the sounds inside.
The internal airflow is circulating, and the sound of gurgling water can be vaguely heard.
He lay down and used a flashlight to shine into the gap between the columns. It was a steep slope going down!
