The tomb is not very big, with an area of ​​about 50 meters square, which is about the size of a small dwelling with two bedrooms and one living room in modern times.After everyone entered the tomb, they were shocked by a row of sarcophagi arranged inside.

Counting them down, there are more than 100 sarcophagi. Because the space is too small, some sarcophagi are even stacked on top of other sarcophagi.

"I'm going, there are so many coffins..." Xiao Cheng was deeply shocked when he saw the considerable number of coffins in front of him, "Have you considered the feelings of the dead when so many coffins are stacked together?"

Hua Mo said: "This will prevent corpse fraud!"

"..." What a cold joke.

The space in the tomb was occupied by these coffins, and at the edge, there were a few lamps hanging above the stone wall, and the flickering candles exuded an unpleasant smell.

Mo Ziqing looked up at the oil lamp hanging in the air, a little surprised, "Could it be that there are guards here?"

"How is it possible?!" Hua Mo immediately vetoed Mo Ziqing's words, "I don't know why Sect Master Mo has such an idea?"

"If no one is watching, who lights these lamps? Is it possible that you want to tell me that these lamps have been burning for thousands of years?" "This should be an ever-burning lamp!" Hua Mo said.

"Eternal light?" Xiao Cheng was taken aback.He has indeed heard of this thing. It is said that there is a kind of oil lamp burning in some tombs, which will not be extinguished for nearly a thousand years. Later, those researchers have used various methods, but they have not solved the real secret of the eternal lamp. Some people speculate that the fire of the ever-burning lamp is the fire of heaven, others speculate that the oil burned by the ever-burning lamp is rather special, it may be an unknown new mineral, and some people speculate that the ever-burning lamp actually uses corpse oil as fuel, so it can last for thousands of years.

The first two guesses are more reliable, and the last statement is simply off-putting.

"Ah Cheng, do you know about the ever-burning lamp? So, how did this thing remain immortal for thousands of years?" Mo Ziqing asked

Road.

"I don't know... I just heard others say..."

Hua Mo stared at him with weird eyes, "Governor Xiao is really well-informed!"

Xiao Cheng smiled awkwardly: "Hahaha, it's easy to talk about!"

"The eternal lamp can be kept burning with soul power, so it can last for thousands of years!"

"Soul power refers to..."

"The qi of people after death! That is the qi of death!" Hua Mo said in an easy-to-understand way.

"..." You might as well be talking about marsh gas!This is the first time I heard that the breath of a dead person can still burn. Sure enough, this world cannot be measured by normal laws!

"It's the first time I've heard that dead air can burn fire..."

"Dead breath is just a kind of combustion aid. The real reason is the lamp oil..." Before Hua Mo finished speaking, Xiao Cheng's scalp felt numb, and he couldn't help but said, "You can't say... these lamp oils are actually Is it made from corpse oil...?"

Hua Mo was shocked, "How do you know?!"

"..." Mo Dan!Really!No wonder he smelled an unpleasant smell just now, it turned out to be the smell of burning corpse oil!

Thinking of this, Xiao Cheng felt nauseous.

"You...you are really insane! No wonder people from many sects wanted to exterminate your family. You...you asked for it!" Mo Ziqing couldn't help saying.

Su Luo said sullenly, "What did you say?!"

Mo Ziqing sneered: "Although I'm not a righteous person, I can't see you trampling other people's bodies like this!"

He knew exactly how the corpse oil came from.When the corpse is baked at high temperature, a layer of oil will be secreted from the skin, which is corpse oil. Some people even use living people to get corpse oil for freshness. This method is even more cruel!No, it should be said to be perverted! Even killing him with a knife, or directly burning him to death, is much better than such a cruel method!

Hua Mo stretched out his hand and stopped the frantic Su Luo, "Pavilion Master Xiao and Sect Master Mo, we don't agree with each other if we disagree. In our eyes, even if it is a dead person, as long as it has value for use, we will not waste it. After the burial, we will not waste it." Why, why not turn into a pile of dry bones in the end, and stay with the loess!"

"Heh!" Xiao Cheng sneered, "Even so, why don't you use the bodies of your own clansmen to refine corpse oil? It really has nothing to do with you!"

Hua Mo turned her head and said, "Pavilion Master Xiao, I think you have misunderstood!"

"Misunderstanding what?"

"You think we use other people's bodies to refine corpse oil? Right?"

"Isn't it?" Who would use the corpses of his own people to refine corpse oil, it must be refined with some captives or stolen corpses!

"These corpse oils are refined from the babies who died in the family!"

"...This is even more insane!" Xiao Cheng felt that he really didn't match up with the wrong brain circuits of the Wu Clan.

"Now is not the time to talk about these things..." Hua Mo felt that if this continues, the two of them might be at odds with each other. The most urgent thing is to find the treasure!

"Okay, let's not talk about that, let me just ask, you said this is the outermost tomb, so how to enter the next tomb

room? "

In this tomb, except for the passageway behind them, there is no entrance at all on the other three sides. How can we enter the next tomb?

Hua Mo hurriedly took out the map from her body and said, "Let me see..."

Hua Mo looked at it for a long time, as if she had fallen asleep, but did not respond for a long time.

Xiao Cheng got a little impatient, and patted the flowers, "Have you finished reading it, kid? You've been watching it for almost half an hour! You can't see a flower anymore!"

Hua Mo came back to her senses, "Uh... I'm just a little puzzled..."

"What do you not understand?"

Hua Mo frowned and said, "The location marked on the map... I don't understand it..."

Xiao Cheng reached out and grabbed the map.

Mo Ziqing also came closer and asked, "Where are we now?"

Hua Mo pointed to one of the locations.

Xiao Cheng saw a marked position on the map, and then showed the position of the next tomb...

"Huh? What's going on here?" Xiao Cheng said in surprise, "Is there no direction for the next tomb?"

What a trick, there is no place for the second tomb, how can there be the location of the third and fourth tombs behind?Could it be that the next tomb was swallowed?

Hua Mo said helplessly, "So... I don't understand..."

Xiao Cheng looked around the tomb, and there was nothing in it except the sarcophagus and the ever-burning lamps. Xiao Cheng said, "Could there be a mechanism hidden somewhere?"

Xiao Cheng was about to touch one of the coffins, but Mo Ziqing immediately grabbed Xiao Cheng's hand and said, "Ah Cheng, be careful! What if there is poison on it?"

"It's true!" Xiao Cheng took out a pair of silk gloves from the bag and touched the first coffin at hand. Unfortunately, there is no mechanism outside the coffin. There are still coffins on top of the coffin. move away.

"Mo Ziqing, can you move the sarcophagus above?"

"It's okay to move it away, but... where to move it?"

"Uh... that's a problem!" The entire tomb was filled with sarcophagi, and there was no place to stand. The place where they stood was the entrance connecting the tomb and the passage. Where is really a question!

But if he doesn't move away, he won't be able to find agencies one by one, which is really a pain in the ass...

Xiao Cheng picked up the map again and took a look at it, but this time, he even saw a sign of it.

"Hey, Mo Ziqing, look here..." Xiao Cheng called Mo Ziqing over, pointed to where they were, and said, "Look, are the marked routes overlapping here?"

Mo Ziqing took a look and nodded, "That's right!"

"Let me see!" Hua Mo wanted to see too, but unfortunately she was too short to see, so she could only tug on Xiao Cheng's clothes.

Xiao Cheng squatted down, pointed at the map and said, "Did you see it? It seems to be repeated here. I said, who drew this picture? Why is it so unreliable? Is it because of the ink soaking?"

Hua Mo took the map and said doubtfully, "Maybe it's been a long time, and the ink has faded away..."

Mo Ziqing said, "It doesn't look like the ink has faded!"

"Huh? Are you sure?"

Mo Ziqing nodded, "If the ink smudges, the pattern will be blurry, but this map is still very clear, which means that the person who drew the map did it on purpose!"

"If it was painted like this on purpose...is it because..." Xiao Cheng was thinking about this question, and a thought suddenly flashed in his mind, "Wait! Could it be...a tomb within a tomb?"

"A tomb within a tomb?"

"Well, as the name suggests, there is a tomb inside the tomb! This can also explain why the map does not show the exact location of the next tomb!"

"If it's a tomb within a tomb, how do I find the entrance?"

"If there is a tomb within a tomb, it means that there is a tomb hidden in the tomb! It is probably under this tomb!"

After Xiao Cheng said this, Hua Mo was half happy and half worried. He was happy that he finally knew the entrance to the next tomb, but worried that the ground was completely occupied by the sarcophagus. To enter the entrance of the next tomb, he had to move. Open these sarcophagi!Where could these sarcophagi be moved?

Some soldiers suggested: "Why don't you move the sarcophagus to these passages first, and then move them back when we come back?"

"It seems that this is the only way to go... However, this passage looks very narrow, and it is not high. There can only be one horizontally or vertically. These hundreds of coffins may have to be moved to the end!"

"makes sense……"

When everyone was discussing how to remove the sarcophagus, Xiao Cheng suddenly squatted down, and Mo Ziqing followed him, and asked, "Ah Cheng, what's wrong?"

"Well, I'm wondering if these coffins can move out of the way..."

"..." These coffins are not human, how could they move away automatically?Mo Ziqing felt that Xiao Cheng's thinking was a little...naive!But the next moment, Mo Ziqing didn't think so.

Xiao Cheng patted a few coffins a few times, and the coffins suddenly made a rumbling sound and moved by themselves!
