This mortise and tenon component is not big, but it is very thick. After being pushed inside, a square black hole immediately appeared on the tomb door.

It was dark inside. Without the flashlight, I could not see clearly what was going on inside with the black smoke from the torch. I could only smell the smell of dampness and sour rot.

I bent down and looked around for a long time, feeling a little disappointed. The moment I turned away, a huge torch almost hit my face. With two "sizzling" sounds, my eyebrows and hair turned into tiny little ones.

The ball exuded a burning smell, but Lao Bai came close to me with a torch at some point. Seeing that it burned me, he hurriedly moved away.

I wiped off my eyebrows and hair that had been burnt to black residue. I didn’t need to look in the mirror to know that my current image was terrible. I couldn’t help but feel sad, thinking that this guy was a tease sent by God to torture me.

Lao Bai also knew that he was in the wrong, so he laughed dryly under my cannibalistic eyes, touched my burned bald area with a low hand, and said humbly: "It's not a big deal, he looks quite punk..."

"Get out of my way!"

I cursed a few times to get angry with such a scumbag. There was no other way out except being angry to death. I waved my hand to drive this guy away like a fly and continued to study the tomb door.

The mortise and tenon joints are interlocked and fit together tightly, almost forming a whole. There is only one component on the entire door that can be pushed in. Finding this one component is equivalent to opening a window, and the rest will fall into place.

Just dismantle it piece by piece.

Different mortise and tenon components have different disassembly methods and different angles of exerting force. However, this is not a difficult task for me. After the components are disassembled piece by piece, black holes are constantly appearing.

expand……

When the hole in the tomb door was enlarged enough to allow two legs to be inserted, a piece of mortise and tenon component caught my attention. Compared with other components of the same volume, its weight was obviously lighter.

This means...the material of this component has changed!

There are too many "artifacts" on the door of the mortise and tenon machine, and the slightest change cannot be ignored, otherwise a little carelessness will become the fuse that kills one's life!

I didn't dare to take it lightly and observed the components turning over and over in my hands.

Sure enough, this component has a mezzanine!

It is like a sandwich, two thin slates with a layer of dark gray stone sandwiched between them, and then glued together with adhesive. You can't find it unless you look carefully.

I gently rubbed the dark gray stone in the middle. The texture was a bit rough, like sandpaper.

"flint!"

This discovery made me nervous. I handed the component to Brother Yaozi and immediately checked the surroundings of the component. Soon, I found a dark fuse next to the component.

This fuse is very interesting. It is somewhat similar to the fuse of a firecracker. When you rub it gently, you will find that it is full of black gunpowder. It is wrapped in thin paper, kneaded into a twist, and dipped in kerosene, which is actually crude oil.

Such a fuse can be called crazy. If it touches the slightest spark, it will burst into flames immediately.

The fuse is sandwiched between two pieces of mortise and tenon components. There is flint in the middle of the mortise and tenon components, and the joint is slanted...

"As expected..."

Regarding this discovery, I was neither surprised nor surprised, and said in a solemn voice: "I knew that there must be a means of killing people on the door of the mortise and tenon machine, but I didn't expect that the design was so sophisticated. Fortunately, we didn't smash the tomb door directly, otherwise, the tomb door would have been destroyed.

As soon as the door is broken, the mortise and tenon components are scattered one after another. The two mortise and tenon components sandwiching the fuse will slide. Their joint is slanted. When sliding, it is like striking a match. The flint inside sparks fire, and instantly

Will ignite the fuse..."

Thinking of the consequences, Brother Yaozi's expression changed: "Is there explosives behind it?"

"It's possible!"

I nodded: "In the Ming Dynasty, firearms developed rapidly. The Shenji Camp was mainly equipped with firearms. Gunpowder was not unfamiliar to the people of the Ming Dynasty. I encountered gunpowder mechanisms in the tombs of the Ming Dynasty.

It happens all the time, but I don’t know if there is explosives here, who knows what is behind the fuse, and it must not be something delicious!”

After saying that, I waved my hand to keep the torch farther away from me. If a spark accidentally fell on the lead, our brothers would be wiped out immediately.

The hole in the tomb door was a bit small, so I didn't rush in to see what the killing method was. I carefully kept the lead wires away from the flint and continued to dismantle the tomb door.

One after another, more than ten similar leads were discovered...

Soon, a hole that was wider than the holes we usually dug appeared in the tomb door.

Seeing that I could get through easily, I stopped dismantling the tomb door. I ducked in and asked Lao Bai to pass the torch in.

The dim flames illuminated the scene behind the tomb door, where two huge shelves stood quietly.

This shelf is similar to a bookshelf, with dozens of square grids on it.

In each grid, there is a crow made of thin bamboo strips, and there is a long fuse under each crow...

This scene made my hands and feet go cold.

Brother Yaozi and the others got in one after another. When they saw this thing, Lao Bai exclaimed: "This is a fucking flying crow!!"

I nodded: "Yes, it's this kind of artifact."

The Divine Fire Flying Crow is actually the original version of the rocket!!

Use thin bamboo strips to weave a bamboo basket similar to that of a crow. This is when the ancients began to have an awareness of aerodynamics. They knew that the body structure and streamlines of birds can fly farther, and the bamboo crow's belly is all full of aerodynamics.

It is gunpowder. There are two "fire" cartridges on each side of the crow's body. The bottom of the "fire" cartridge is connected to the gunpowder line inside the crow's body. During combat, the thrust of the fire can push the flying crow three to four hundred miles away and land on the ground.

The gunpowder inside will ignite and explode in an instant...

Two bookshelves blocked the entire corridor, and they were densely packed with flying crows.

"Kite, you almost killed us!!"

Lao Bai would never let go of the opportunity to hold Brother Yao Zi to account. He slapped his thigh and muttered: "If I listen to your nonsense, all it takes is one hammer down. The door of the tomb will collapse, and those flints will slide and ignite the fuse.

The flying crows from behind all flew out in a swish, occupying the entire corridor. There was no gap at all. We couldn't run even if we wanted to. It was really like one shot and we were shoulder to shoulder with the sun, not to mention leaving a gap.

The whole corpse and all the descendants will become dumpling fillings!"

"I'd better kill you bastard with one shot!"

Brother Yao Zi fiercely pushed the torch to Lao Bai, winked at him, and the two of us carefully stepped forward and moved the two bookshelves away.

Behind the bookshelf is a flat and wide tomb passage.

This tomb passage is much more refined than the tunnel we rented before. The ground is covered with carefully polished stone slabs. However, Hecha Mountain is different from other mountains on the Loess Plateau. It is relatively humid and the underground environment has abundant water vapor, so the tomb is

A lot of moss has grown on the stone slabs, making it slippery and slippery, like walking on ice.

The tomb passage is not long, and the front suddenly becomes empty, as if you suddenly walked through a square yard. There is another tomb door in front, but the tomb door is broken, and the tomb roof made of glutinous rice above has collapsed, and many

Stones fell down, blocking almost half of the tomb door.

There are two small doors on the left and right sides. There is no mystery at all. They are just two iron doors. They have long been rusted in the water vapor underground, and there are even fist-sized holes in the doors.

The yin house is like the yang house, but the orientation and layout are reversed. This is what the Chinese ancestors often said: death is like life.

Therefore, most ancient tombs contain to some extent the architectural features of the era in which the tomb owner lived.

This ancient tomb is a typical northern folk courtyard tomb in the Ming Dynasty. In terms of scale and regulations, it does not even reach the level of an uncle.

It should be noted that the titles of the Ming Dynasty are different from those of previous dynasties. They no longer have the fifth-level titles of duke, marquis, uncle, son, and male. There are only the third-level titles of duke, marquis, and uncle, plus a prince consort. This prince consort is a bit more unique, but it is also

It is above the uncle, so it can be said that the tombs of the Ming Dynasty are divided by the regulations of the uncle. Only when they reach this level can they be regarded as large tombs and noble tombs.

The internal scale of the tomb in front of me is too small to bury an uncle. It does not match the underground tunnels that stretch for several miles, as well as the mortise and tenon machine doors that almost made me, a ceremony official, helpless, let alone the tombstone.

There are eight characters on it: "The General of Zhenbei pounces on the tiger in the sky".

"A layman or an outsider, Zhao Banxian didn't know where he saw the layout of the doubtful tomb. The idea is very good, and the starting point is also majestic. But in the end, he is not an expert, and he has violated the taboo. The most feared thing about burying the dead is an anticlimax, a start that looks like a tail end.

He was a king, but he ended up fighting on the street. He showed the style of a prince, general, and minister, but ended up with only a net worth rising to the level of a commoner. He held a breath of anger in his stomach. Something was going to happen. After the death of the fighting tiger, he was not stable. This is the reason.

one!"

I sighed softly, glanced at the compass, pointed to the collapsed roof of the tomb and the tomb door that was half blocked by the fall, and said: "This is the main room, which is the main tomb chamber. Go directly to the main tomb chamber, don't look around, don't

Go and see the small rooms on both sides, that’s the side hall!”

This is for Lao Bai to hear.

Lao Bai also knew the nature of his own urine and snorted unconvinced.

"If you want to take a look, I won't stop you. Don't blame me if you get in or get out!"

I said with a evil smile: "Firstly, there is something wrong with Zhao Banxian's tomb, and the dead man cannot sleep peacefully. Secondly, the side hall is the concubine's room, where the maids stay, and Pu Tianhu is just a green skinned man who rose up, or was killed by that in the chaos.

Liu Guangzuo was beheaded and died in a hurry. Where are the concubines and maids? But the tomb is like this. It cannot be an empty shell. No matter how amateur Zhao Banxian is, he should know this. He must use people to fill the house. You

Where can people from the green forest find people who want to fill houses? If they are kind-hearted, they can only catch those women from good families. If they are kind-hearted, they will kill them with a knife and put them in the side hall to fill houses. If they are cruel, they will drive them with nine-inch nails.

In the coffin, this is called a living concubine, and the most beautiful thing is in the eyes of the dead. How much resentment do you think those good families had when they were killed in this way? These two reasons add up, and the two side rooms are actually the most dangerous places in the whole tomb. You

If you go in vertically, you may have to come out horizontally!!"

After saying that, I ignored Lao Bai's pale face, took the compass and walked towards the main tomb.
