There are some things that you cannot think deeply about, as the more you think about them, the more disgusting they will become.

Since it involves tombs, this is my specialty. I stood up and walked around the square space, which was not too big or too small.

This is a stone tomb. It does not use bricks and tiles. It is a tomb made entirely of cut stones. This kind of tomb is very strong and can often be preserved for a long time. Just look at those megalithic buildings in the West. If it can withstand

The building materials that have been ravaged by time must be stone, something that nature has bred. However, such a tomb is time-consuming and labor-intensive. It is completely conceivable how much manpower is required to cut the irregular rocks into square shapes.

As well as material resources, this kind of tomb cannot be afforded except by high-ranking officials and dignitaries.

However, it is difficult to speculate on the age. Stone tombs were found in all dynasties and are not particularly representative. Generally speaking, as long as a wealthy family hopes that their tomb will not collapse for thousands of years, this kind of tomb will be recommended.

Except for a bone-setting ruler, everything else in the tomb had basically rotted after being soaked in water, including the corpse and coffin. There was nothing left except a muddy pond, which made it even more difficult for us to speculate on the age of the tomb.

I took a general look and found that the walls around the tomb were made of stone. The gaps in the middle were sealed with butter paper and lime powder. There was basically no damage. However, the floor of the tomb was severely damaged. It can still be seen today.

Occasionally, one or two small stone slabs as thick as the palm of a hand were taken out from the mud pond, which shows that the ground of the tomb was paved with polished stone slabs.

They are all experts, and this is not the first time they have done something like this. Many times, there is no need for an exact answer at all, and the general outline of the matter can be guessed through some clues.

Unless there is an accident, the so-called combination of the well and the cellar is a complete accident, not a special arrangement at all.

There are countless tombs on Mingtiao Gang, and this tomb is one of them. However, the location was not chosen well, and most of the burials were done in a hurry. Experts were not invited to survey the landforms and finalize the excavation. Therefore, this tomb was built very unluckily.

On the water bed.

This water bed is not the kind of water bed often found in modern love hotels, but a term in the Feng Shui field, which refers to places with very rich groundwater. Wells are usually dug in such places.

Not suitable for building tombs.

This tomb obviously did not consider this problem. There may not have been any accidents during the excavation, but as time went by, it was hard to say anything. The groundwater poured up, washed away the floor of the tomb, and eventually flooded the entire tomb.

In addition, this tomb has adopted some sealing technology, and after the groundwater poured up, it naturally continued in the tomb chamber, and the entire tomb chamber completely became a water cellar!

According to Lao Bai's speculation about the statue at the wellhead, around the Tang Dynasty, there was such a lunatic who actually went to Mingtiao Gang, a super cemetery, to live in a house. How did he survive? Was he disturbed by ghosts and gods?

You know, but when this lunatic was digging a well, he managed to sink the well into the tomb. At that time, the whole tomb was flooded with water. Naturally, water came out, so this lunatic didn't do anything.

Think about other places, and just start enjoying the underground water where dead people have been soaked in with peace of mind...

This is probably the cause of this special situation at the moment. Apart from this, I can't think of any other possibility.

"Since it is a stone tomb, that is, a large tomb, how can it only have one tomb chamber?"

Lao Bai followed me and asked in a low voice: "Have you seen any other ways?"

"There is no way to speak of it."

I said calmly: "This is indeed a large tomb, but it is just the tip of the iceberg of the large tomb. The person buried here is not the real owner of the large tomb. If there is no accident, the person buried here should be a martyr, and he was buried voluntarily."

Yes, I think this person should have been one of the most important people around the tomb owner during his lifetime. Otherwise, after his death, people would not have thoughtfully inserted a bone-setting ruler under his neck. Instead, he would have been violently killed. Who would have cared so much?

Tie him up, kill him with a knife and push him in, and that’s it!”

Lao Bai said: "From the burial pit?"

I nodded: "Other than that, there is no other explanation. This kind of square tomb without leaving a door can only be from the burial pit. I just searched around and found nothing else.

Unlike the extremely hidden tomb doors we encountered overseas last time, there is indeed no tomb door left here.

As a secondary burial pit, it can only be found in the four corners of the main tomb, east, west, north, and south. From this tomb alone, you cannot tell which direction it is in the main tomb. However, since it is a martyred person, it cannot overwhelm the main tomb.

The location and terrain must be higher than here. We also looked at it when we came here. The surrounding terrain is relatively flat. It does not look like a place to place the main tomb. Moreover, unless you are a fool, you will not let the main tomb be placed on the surrounding flat ground.

Because those are the phoenix wings of Feifengdi. Riding on the phoenix wings, the owner of the tomb is not reliable. This is common sense. Therefore, the location of the main tomb chamber can only be on the huge loess hill in Mingtiao Gang!!

As long as you keep digging towards the location of Mingtiao Gang, you are sure to be able to dig into the main tomb. Don’t worry, it won’t be too far. Although you don’t know who the owner of the tomb is, he is definitely not the emperor. Judging from the size of the burial pit, it won’t be too far.

If it reaches that level, it can only belong to an honorable person, and the burial pit for an honorable person cannot be too far from the main tomb, no more than five hundred meters, otherwise it is against the rules!"

Lao Bai looked at me and looked at him with something wrong, and couldn't help but said: "We are here to track the black snake. Look what you said..."

I glanced at him sideways, wondering if your eyes would light up when I heard about the tomb, would I tell you this?

"Having said that, this is indeed a bit strange!!"

Brother Yaozi said: "That black snake ran out of the Yellow River. When it was driven away by the villagers in Xia Village, it escaped here again. Where is its nest?"

"It's hard to say. We can only grab a few clues and search as much as possible."

I smiled and said: "We don't have the ability to go to the five oceans to catch turtles, so we can only think of a way from here. If we can't find the snake, then Huang Laoxie can only accept his fate. Didn't Xiaozhi also say that this grandson

His wife has a child but has nothing to do with him. Maybe this is his fate. You have to admit, we have tried our best, right?"

Brother Yaozi thought for a while and finally nodded. This time it was really a bit painful. If it weren't for my master's decision to open the mountain gate, we wouldn't have wanted to come to this place at all. Now that we are here, we must do our best to understand destiny.

That's all, there's no point in going all out.

On this point, we all highly agree!

"If, I mean if..."

Zhang Xinya suddenly said: "What if this burial pit is not the destination of the black snake at all? You have also seen this place. It doesn't look like a place where evil things have been entrenched all year round. Maybe this is just the starting point? What about that place?

The snake got down from the mouth of the well. There might be some dark hole left by it here. Then it passed through the dark hole and got into its lair. And its lair should be not far from the Yellow River, and could even lead to the Yellow River.

in!!

Don't forget that the people of Xia Village have been drinking the water from this well. In other words, the groundwater is still pouring up, but the process is very slow. Ergouzi also inspected the tomb chamber just now, and the tomb wall has been done.

It is sealed and can store water. What is the reason that caused the well water to suddenly dry up two months ago? I think there is only one reason. The sealed tomb wall was damaged, so after the underground water pipe came up, it all flowed out!!"

This is a bold guess, but... it is extremely possible!

"Look carefully!"

I immediately said: "If nothing is found, we will have to withdraw."

Everyone immediately started to get busy, each person was responsible for a certain area, and carefully searched for this possible snake hole.

This is a meticulous project and definitely not an easy one.

"Brother Jingzhe..."

Xiaozhi suddenly called me timidly. I couldn't help but stop what I was doing and turned to look at her. Then she said softly: "This stone seems to be moving, but I am not strong enough to pull it out!!"

Can it move?

As soon as my eyes lit up, I immediately rushed to her corner, held the stone and shook it back and forth. Sure enough, it was moving. The stone was covered with mud. The disguise was so good!!

"Found it!!"

I regained my energy, grabbed the stone and pulled it out with all my strength. Sure enough, there was a hole behind the stone, which was dark and led to nowhere!!
