When everyone saw that I was concentrating on the problem, they all calmed down and stopped talking.

They knew that I was an expert in archaeology and had a lot of research on the things in the ancient tombs, so the hope of opening the dragon gate naturally fell on me.

I remember Fan Shuai once told us that most of the tomb doors and secret passages that cannot be opened with external forces are controlled by hidden mechanisms. As long as you calm down and find the hidden mechanisms, you can open the tomb door.

My eyes swept back and forth on the gantry. Suddenly, my eyes lit up and my heart began to beat.

I said excitedly: "I think I have found the mechanism to open the gantry!"

"Really? Where?" Everyone couldn't hide their joy on their faces, and they all looked at me with anticipation.

I didn't answer them, but went straight to the gantry.

He shouted softly, jumped up, stretched his arms, and grabbed the flying dragon claws.

Then I raised my foot and pointed it lightly on the stone door, turned over and landed on the majestic dragon head.

Uncle Liu Er and the group of guards immediately changed their faces. They shouted sternly: "Tuoba Gu, what are you doing? Come down quickly! Don't insult the Dragon!"

I know that Feilong must be something that he admires very much in the mind of the guards, but I did not intend to insult the Shenlong.

I ignored them and reached out and pressed Feilong's eyes, which were the two shining night pearls.

There was a cold breath at the tentacles, and white smoke lingered in my hands.

I touched the two night pearls and tentatively knocked on them, and found that the night pearl was indeed a little loose.

I felt happy, and my arms were slightly strengthened, and I pressed the two night pearls down hard.

With a click, two night pearls sunk into the dragon head.

That's right!

It's exactly the same as I guess. These two longans are the mechanism to open this stone gate!

I turned over and jumped down from the dragon head. When I looked back, I heard a dull sound of rumbling sounds constantly in the darkness.

Immediately afterwards, a gap was cracked in the middle of the gantry gate, and the entire gantry gate was divided into two and slowly opened to the left and right sides. The huge and heavy stone gate slowly moved, making the ground buzzing, and the soles of our feet were numb.

"It's open! The dragon gate is open!" Everyone cheered excitedly.

Uncle Liu Er walked up to me and apologized: "I'm sorry, we might have been a little impulsive just now, and we blamed you for the wrong thing!"

I smiled and didn't take what happened just now.

The most important thing is that the dragon gate has opened and we can finally enter the Qin Shihuang underground palace!

For thousands of years, we are among the first people to actually enter the Qin Shihuang underground palace, and I am still a little excited to think about it.

But then I thought again, we are not the first batch, the first batch of people entering the underground palace were those cold-blooded mercenaries.

It’s really a ridiculous thought. Qin Shihuang, the emperor of the age, probably wouldn’t have dreamed that the first group of foreigners to patronize his mausoleum thousands of years later!

This is also a shame to our Chinese archaeological community!

After a little sad, we calmed down and walked into the gantry gate with our heads raised our chests.

There seemed to be a hot voice in our hearts shouting loudly: "We are here in the Palace of the First Emperor!"

I had fantasized about the magnificent scene of the Qin Emperor's underground palace. Just when the dragon gate was opened, I was still guessing what kind of scene would be behind the dragon gate.

However, what we all did not expect was that behind the dragon gate was a thick darkness, a vast dark space, with the cold wind passing back and forth, making a sudden roar.

We looked at each other, what the hell is this?

This space is really big, and the beam of the wolf's eyes cannot even hit the top.

And we were not at the tomb passage, but a very spacious road, enough to try four heavy trucks side by side.

The road is long and echoes the sound of our empty footsteps.

Not long after walking, Shunfenger Jiao Heng suddenly spoke: "Listen, what's the sound?"

We stopped, supported our ears and listened intently, and there were bursts of clattering sounds in our eardrums.

"It seems like the sound of running water!" Lao Yang said.

"That's right! It's the sound of water!" Everyone nodded.

"It's strange! How can there be water in this underground palace? This is too incompatible with the architectural structure of the ancient tomb!" Cao Yi said with a puzzled face.

In fact, Cao Yi’s doubts are not wrong. We all know that the ancient tomb is a closed space buried deep underground. If it is too humid, the coffin or tomb owner in the ancient tomb will rot and erode. Therefore, the ancient tomb is usually very dry, and there is no flowing air. The tighter the ancient tomb is, the better it is preserved.

But unexpectedly, we actually heard the sound of water in the underground palace. The groundwater vapor is very heavy. Isn’t Qin Huang’s old man afraid of the erosion of water vapor? The years of water vapor erosion may also cause the entire underground palace or the mound of sealed soil to collapse.

I suddenly remembered something. There was a record in "Records of the Grand Historian": "Walking through three springs, copper was placed under the coffin, the palaces and officials were visited, and strange weapons were hidden. Mercury was used as a river and sea, and it was instilled with mechanical elements. It was equipped with astronomy and geography, and mermaid paste was used as candles, and those who were immortal would last for a long time!"

Let's not analyze the meaning of this passage, let's talk about the first sentence "Chuan Sanquan". After many scholars in later generations, after analyzing and demonstrating, the "Chuan Sanquan" here may refer to three underground rivers. Legend has it that the Qin Emperor dug deep under the underground palace and passed through three underground rivers vertically. In order to prevent the water from pouring back into the underground palace, the craftsmen built a city wall of hundreds of meters high underground walls underground, which is actually a river dam to block the underground river water from flowing into the underground palace, thereby protecting the safety of the underground palace.

Could the sound of flowing water we just heard besides the sound of water flowing from the underground river?

Also, our location is flat and spacious. Could it be that we are just standing on the river dam?

I told everyone my speculation and analysis, and everyone was amazed.

We walked forward quickly with the sound of flowing water. The clearer the sound of flowing water went forward. Later, we could hear the clattering sound and the dull roar of the running water hitting the river dam. It lingered in the dark space, like muffled thunder, very shocking.

We held up the wolf's eyes and shone down. As the darkness surged, we saw an underground river flowing slowly, like a winding water dragon, rushing and hitting the river dam for thousands of years.

If there are three underground rivers as stated in "Records of the Grand Historian", then this underground river should be the top one.

I'm so amazing!

At this moment, everyone was deeply shocked!

Whose tomb in the world can be so magnificent and huge? It has actually built a river dam underground. Even today, it is still an amazing project and an unparalleled tomb building.

Qin Shihuang, the emperor of the ages, is indeed well-deserved!

Standing at the top of the river dam and facing the wet and cold river breeze, we seem to be able to appreciate the heroic momentum of dominating the world!

And what we see now is the exposed river dam, and we can't see how many exquisitely constructed large drainage systems are under the river dam. The magnificence of Qin Shihuang's underground palace is far beyond our imagination!

"I'm very curious. Will the long-lasting impact of the flowing water not destroy this river dam?" Fang Weiran asked.

"This river dam is of course not made of ordinary material. It is mixed with glutinous rice and bronze juice, and mixed with some plant grass stems. It is forged by adding stone in a special way. It has a high viscosity and excellent waterproofing effect. It is even harder than the current concrete!" I explained.

"Awesome! So awesome!" Fang Weiran exclaimed repeatedly: "Life should be for Qin Shihuang, and the whole world is applauding!"

"Are you writing poetry improvised again? Let's go back and wash your face and look in the mirror. You still want to be Qin Shihuang in this way!" The old bird said without hesitation.

"Hey, look, there seems to be something in the river!" Xiao Guoguo waved at us with sharp eyes.

The halo of the wolf's eyes shone in the direction of Xiao Guoguo's fingers, and I saw that something seemed to be really in the dark river. The thing was black and very large, and I couldn't see what it was for a while.

Uncle Liu Er said: "It feels like a stone!"

Actually, at first glance, I felt like a stone, but that stone was too big, and how could it lie in the middle of the river?

After watching for a while, no one could see the reason. After a few random guesses, they were ready to leave.

At this moment, the "stone" in the underground river seemed to move, and at the same time, a rustling sound of iron chains came from the underground river.

We were suspicious, so we stopped and wanted to see clearly.

The "stone" slowly floated up, revealing half of its body.

At this time, we were surprised to find that the big black stone turned out to be a turtle!

Yes, turtle!

A huge turtle!

The largest turtle we have ever seen is just as big as a washbasin, but the turtle in the underground river is as big as a truck. Due to the long-term erosion of the running water, the dark carapace is filled with a faint green light on the surface, like a large glowing stone.

We were all shocked and stared at each other. Unexpectedly, there was an ancient giant beast hidden in the underground river under the underground palace. Oh, no, it should be called a divine beast!
