Vermillion mole

As soon as Wu Xie finished translating, several people said "ah", and they all showed a look of sudden realization. The fat man nodded. Obviously, my translation is very reasonable and there are no flaws.

Pan Zi said 'tsk', and murmured: "The third master is the third master. If Chen Pi Ahsi heard this sentence, he would not have thought of it when he was killed. "

"Water from the canal?" The fat man asked for half the salary, "But, there is no canal here? Is there a river in the imperial mausoleum?"

After hearing this, Zhu Sha pointed to the moat on the side: "That's right!"

The flesh on Pan Zi's face trembled with excitement, and he said, "Then we hit the right road by mistake? But..." Pan Zi was a little uncertain, "There is no water in the canal."

The fat man couldn't hold back anymore, he pulled the bolt of the gun with a 'click', and tilted his neck: "Comrades, it's rare that our personal interests and the interests of the revolution are highly unified. What are you waiting for, let's fuck together."

This time, no one could find a reason to refute Fatty's proposal.In fact, even Zhu Sha was in a bit of a hurry, but Zhu Sha was still sober and tired on the road. It was already evening when he reached the snow top, and it took almost 10 hours to get to the palace in the ice cap, which is equivalent to a strong A day and a night of physical labor, including rock climbing, running, long jumping, and falling from a high altitude, even if he was not injured, his physical strength has already been exhausted.

Zhu Sha grabbed Fatty: "Fatty, don't be impatient. Even if you're not tired, let Wu Xie and Shunzi rest, or if something happens on the road, you won't be able to run."

Pan Zi also agrees very much, Wu Xie is not like their group, who lives in the wind and rain, lives a life of fighting and killing every day, which is reflected in his bare hands and physical strength.

Wu Xie and Shunzi fell asleep soon, and Pan Zi didn't want to drag Zhu Sha down, so he obediently went to rest even if he wasn't sleepy.Only the fat man was unhappy, Zhu Sha just thought it was funny and took out two cigarettes to light one for the fat man, and she also lit one herself.

He smiled and said: "Okay, fat man, don't be so sad, at worst, you will find some artifacts and treasures later, and I will pack a bag for you."

The fat man was immediately happy: "Little Fairy, I can remember what you said. If you can't talk, it doesn't count. I'll go to rest right away!"

Zhu Sha shook her head helplessly, as long as the fat man has money, he can say anything.With cinnabar guarding them, they all slept peacefully.

Pan Zi was the first to wake up, and sat on the side sullenly as soon as he got up. Zhu Sha knew that he must be worried about Wu Sansheng.

Zhu Sha comforted him and said: "Don't worry, the Wu family is very hard-fated, not to mention me, even if I really die, I can pull him out from the gate of hell."

Pan Zi nodded, sighed, and said annoyedly, "I don't always understand what the third master is doing. Otherwise, he doesn't need to do such a dangerous thing himself. I'll just go."

Zhu Sha was even annoyed by him: "You can't replace what your third master did. If you were involved, you might lose your life. After all, you and I don't have the relationship that I have with the Wu family. If you can’t be rescued in time, your life will be lost.”

Pan Zi chuckled: "I'm not afraid of death, if I die for the third master, it's worth it."

Zhu Sha's nose is a little sore, Pan Zi is really loyal.After being silent for a long time, Wu Xie and the three of them finally woke up.

After tidying up my things, I ate some snacks casually, and walked back to the sacrificial canal I saw just now. The eroded black stone figurines still stood there silently. The long queue stretched to the endless within the darkness.

Walking into the figurines, looking down on the figurines from above, so the feeling is not very strong, but once down, the figurines become as tall as Wu Xie, Wu Xie is a little scared by the black shadows around him , kept making do with Zhu Sha.

The fat man pointed his flashlight in the direction of both sides, and asked Zhu Sha, "Little fairy, the third master told us to follow the water, but there is no water here, where should we go?"

Zhu Sha approached a figurine, touched the crack on it, and pointed to the direction the figurine was facing, "Look at the traces of water flowing on the stone, it should be downstream."

Zhu Sha consciously walked in the front, let Pan Zi be cut off, some people think that it doesn't matter if he is assassinated or injured, but it is not, it should be trust, because enough to trust a person Only then will the back be handed over to him.

Several people started to walk along the ditch towards the dark part of the moat.The length of the moat. When viewed from the cliff with flares, the entire imperial city is a distant view. Several people probably only saw the top of the building, and the moat was blocked by the dense dead woods around it.And when we were on the bridge, the light of the flashlight was not enough to illuminate everything in the dark.So I walked straight along the sacrificial canal for half an hour, at the bottom of the moat that was so silent, but still didn't end.

As we walked, it got darker and darker. Originally, the flashlight shone on the river wall on one side, and there was still a little reflection. At least there was a reference point. As we walked, we couldn’t even find the towering river wall on one side. There was darkness everywhere. Yes, at this time, Zhu Sha stopped, and several people walked to Zhu Sha's side, looked along the flashlight, and saw that the end of the sacrificial canal had come, and the team of figurines disappeared, and there was a huge stone river wall in front of them. It was the other side of the moat. There seemed to be a huge thing like the Leshan Giant Buddha carved on the river wall, because the flashlight couldn’t show the whole picture, and I didn’t know what it was. The square hole covered by gravel, now the stone has been removed a lot, revealing a dark hole.

This is the same as the passage that came in just now. This hole was also one of the passages secretly dug by the craftsmen who built the mausoleum back then. This was the only passage for them to escape after the underground palace was closed.

"Another counterattack tunnel?" Pan Zi was surprised: "Why did the opening come here? It's impossible."

"How can it be impossible?" the fat man asked. "You didn't fix it."

Pan Zi said: "This place was underwater back then, do you think those craftsmen were all fish?"

Zhu Sha waved their hands to keep them quiet, at this moment Shunzi gave a 'hey' and said, "Come and see, there's something here."

As he spoke, he used a flashlight to shine a light on it, and a few people looked at it, and saw someone engrave a few words on the stone on one side of the square cave.

The square hole is half a person's height, square, very rough, with broken stones about the size of a watermelon all over the sides, and there are quite a few inside. Obviously, someone has blocked this hole before, and the inside of the square hole is completely dark. , I don't know where it leads, a bit like the reservoir culverts often seen in the south.

In the pile of broken stones on one side of the square cave, there is a relatively flat piece with a few words carved on it very roughly, which was carved very hastily and very shallowly. This kind of imperial mausoleum looks very dazzling inside, and Shunzi may not be able to find it.It's a pity that what is engraved can't be spelled out at all.

The fat man approached curiously to take a look, and suddenly he let out a sigh, beckoned to me and said, "Little fairy, we seem to have seen these distorted foreign characters somewhere."

Zhu Sha also walked over, and after just a glance, he knew who wrote it, besides Zhang Qiling, who else could it be! Pointing to the hole: "Pack up your things and go in."

Each prepares their own equipment. It was the way of packing for the march just now. Now they put all wind lamps and fuel into the bag, and then take out the cold smoke, cold light sticks, and explosives, and tie them on the armed belt. Fatty and Panzi Each pulls the bolt, withdraws the magazine, withdraws the bullets on the belt and loads the gun. After the ammunition is full, the hunting knife and dagger return to their place.

Zhu Sha was still only holding his own dagger, the five or four guns were too long, and he might not be able to turn around in the square hole, so the fat man gave the gun to Shunzi, took out his climbing pick, and several people tested the brightness of the flashlight. He took out his touch gold talisman, pinched it in his hand and bowed to the sky.

Zhu Sha glanced at Fatty's fake touch gold talisman, which was a bit funny. Shunzi is also an expert in using guns. After taking the gun, he "clicked" to get familiar with it a few times, feeling a lot of nostalgia, and then said to us: "Bosses , I don't understand your business, but I want to remind you that when drilling holes in Changbai Mountain, you must be careful of snow hairs. If you see something wrong, first use cotton to plug your ears. It can drill ears. In summer, when the shell is hardened, it can drill directly through your skin, and two hind whiskers will be exposed. When you pull the hind whiskers, they will break off, and the whole insect will be broken inside. You have to dig it out. The wound can only be dug out, and this thing also penetrates the anus, so be careful when sitting."

Zhu Sha couldn't help but burst out laughing: "The worm's hobby is really special now, and he also likes popping chrysanthemums, fat man, you two, be careful, if you really get chrysanthemums popping, don't expect me to save you. My golden silkworm Gu He also has self-respect! But he doesn’t have the hobby of viewing chrysanthemums!”

Wu Xie was also so teased that he couldn't breathe, the fat man glanced at Shunzi in disgust, and tightened his belt reluctantly.

Shunzi said: "I'm not joking with you guys, if you get tricked, find a way to get rid of it yourself, don't ask me."

Zhu Sha laughed even more happily. Except for Wu Xie and Zhu Sha, the rest of them felt the lower body was cold, and they all nodded. Zhu Sha took the lead and crawled into the square cave, followed by the rest of them, filing in. Start moving towards the ultimate unknown world underground.

In the square cave, you have to walk on your waist, because the height is too low, and you walk very slowly. The rock bottom here is very solid. Looking at the traces of drilling, this tunnel was obviously dug with the most primitive method.The more I walked in, the more I saw the traces of many people who had been there. There were more than one shoe prints on the hiking shoes, and there were no snow hairs. However, I found some strange fork holes on the top of the tunnel.

These holes are not big and can only accommodate one person, and the holes are bent at 180 degrees. After going straight up for a while, they will turn downwards to form a curved pipe in the shape of a number '9'.There is about one such hole every ten meters.

Since I got involved in this business, I have climbed the cave several times, and I have never seen such a structure. From the perspective of architectural accounting, the amount of engineering required to drill these holes is almost the same as that of the entire tunnel. There must be an absolute reason to drill the holes, otherwise it would be uneconomical, but it is really hard to see the value of these holes.

Pan Zi said to Zhu Sha from behind, "Zhu Sha, have you noticed that this tunnel looks familiar?"

Wu Xie asked curiously: "Familiar"

Pan Zi said: "When we were in the Guazi Temple in Shandong, didn't the corpse cave and the tunnel that entered the cave have the same virtue? Didn't the old man just hide in the cave above to harm us?"

When he said that, Wu Xie looked carefully at the top of the cave again, and asked him, "Are you sure?"

Pan Zi was not sure, and said, "We only knew there was a hole in it after hearing what the old man said. When we passed by, it was pitch black, so we didn't notice it."

Zhu Sha said at this time: "Yes, they are the same. If you guess correctly, even the person who built the tomb is the same person."

Wu Xie was puzzled when he heard that, "Third Uncle infers that the robbery cave is so old that it was dug during the Warring States period, and it may have been dug when King Lu Shang went to the mountain to build a mausoleum. Wang Zanghai should have seen it after he went there and borrowed the technology from the ancients? "

Zhu Sha said: "You are still too young to see."

Pan Zi really believed Zhu Sha's words, because it was really possible that Wang Zanghai also had the ability to live forever.After all, there are examples of cinnabar here, and it is impossible not to believe it.

After walking for a long time, I don't know how far I walked, the road gradually widened, and finally I saw the exit.Several people climbed out, and in front of them was an extremely deep canal, about ten meters deep and five or six meters wide, and there was no water in the canal.

Wu Xie looked at the repairing of the canal and said, "This is the diversion canal. The water from the moat is diverted from here to keep the water running and not stink, and to prevent the water level from flowing backward."

There are ridges for one person to walk on both sides of the canal, and a stone bridge is built on it.Several people walked over cautiously and came to the other bank of the river. The fat man asked how to get there now?

Wu Xie said: "This canal is connected to the canal outside, it should be regarded as a canal, let's follow the water."

Pan Zi squatted down to look at the traces of the water flow, pointed to one side, "There."

Several people continued to move forward, and not long after, a very regular square hole appeared on the stone wall beside the river ridge ahead.

The fat man lit up a cold smoke and threw it out, revealing the black stone slabs on the ground outside the square cave, obviously this is the sealing wall stone of the underground palace.The fat man got out, fired a lot of cold fireworks and threw them around, and then greeted us, and several people crawled out of the tunnel.

The place where I came out was a tomb made of black rock. It was not high enough for a person to stand up straight, but it was very wide. There were many earthen jars neatly placed around the tomb, which might be wine jars used for burial. They are all half the height of a person, and it is roughly estimated that there are more than 1000 cans.

On the four black walls, there are some simple reliefs, engraving the situation when the emperor held a banquet. The reliefs are not well preserved, which may have something to do with the connection between this place and the outside world. Although the volcanic gas here is not as deadly as Pan Zi said, But the corrosiveness is definitely stronger than ordinary air. It is already a miracle that the murals here can be preserved.It's a pity that the pictures that have been preserved can only be seen in general.

On the left and right walls of the tomb, there is a stone gate, behind which is a dark corridor.A cold wind blew out from inside. The fat man picked up two cold fireworks and threw one in without seeing the ends.
