Chapter 369 Discovery of the Largest Ancient Tomb (Part 2)
"Yes, it is indeed a cave, but nothing special. [This article comes from]" Lin Haitao said in surprise, "In such a small mountain village, it is not uncommon to see caves. In some places, caves are specially used as tourist attractions.
Woolen cloth."
He Qing said excitedly: "This cave is not ordinary, it should be a natural cave. Haitao, do you dare to follow me in and have a look?"
As they talked, they approached the entrance of the cave. The entrance was located at the foot of the mountain. The stone gate had undergone some repairs, and the road to the entrance was paved with flat stone slabs. However, grass grew knee-deep on both sides of the stone road, and the road was also covered with moss. Look around.
There are traces, as if no one has entered this cave for a long time.
"What are you afraid of?" Lin Haitao nodded without hesitation, "I just feel like there's nothing interesting in it. I've been in small caves like this many times before. It's pitch dark inside and there's no scenery."
He Qing smiled slightly and said disapprovingly: "But you must have never entered this cave before, right? Then how do you know that there is nothing good-looking inside, maybe the scenery is pleasant? Haitao, it's nothing, what are you afraid of when you go in and take a look?
"
After finally finding this key place, he certainly would not give up halfway and continue to search for the source of the cultural relics.
When he found this cave, he was already sure that the ancient tomb was nearby, and one of the entrances was connected to somewhere in the cave, and he could enter from there, although at this moment he could not determine where the entrance of the ancient tomb was located in the cave.
place, but after entering, based on the image recorded on the jade bead, he should be able to easily find that place, and then directly enter the ancient tomb to explore the big treasure he wants to find.
"It's not that you're afraid. Entering this small cave is not an adventure, is it?" Lin Haitao shook his head hurriedly. "It just doesn't feel like much. Brother Qing, since you are interested, I will accompany you in."
He Qing said happily: "Then let's go in and take a look later."
Speaking of which, he was a little nervous. After all, he had never had such an experience before. What he entered was not just an ordinary small cave, but also an ancient tomb that was nearly two thousand years old. The cave was nothing, and the most he encountered was the harsh nature.
The environment, while the ancient tombs are very different. Perhaps it is just like what is written in tomb robbery novels, with many traps inside and dangerous steps, making people fearful.
But since they are here, they have to break in. Since the tomb robbers can easily enter, they should not be at any risk. The novel is fictional after all, and the situation inside the ancient tomb is not that mysterious. This is based on their understanding of the tomb.
You will know the knowledge about Cao Cao Gaoling who has been discovered.
"Miss Su, the cave is a bit unsafe, so don't go in." After a while, He Qing turned around and greeted Suning in particular. He was a girl with a delicate body. If you encounter any danger in the cave,
.That would be troublesome.
But Suning curled her lips and said: "Why? You can go in, why can't I? I want to go in and have a look too. Don't forget, I also like adventure. Besides, Haitao is right, there can be
Is there any danger? It’s just a small cave, I can’t walk a few steps.”
"Maybe." He Qing shook his head gently and said, thinking in his heart, don't be too careless. This cave is connected to the ancient tomb, so it may not be that simple.
Seeing Suning's words so firmly, He Qing couldn't refuse her to join. In fact, he could tell at the first sight of the other party. He knew that the other party was a strong girl. If she wasn't adventurous, then this time
She won't go on a self-driving trip with them either.
At that moment, He Qing did not make a decision immediately. Instead, he carefully observed the surroundings. His expression became solemn, as if he was deep in thought.
"Brother Qing, what are you thinking about?" Seeing that He Qing was silent for a long time, Lin Haitao and Suning looked at each other, and then Lin Haitao asked softly.
He Qing came back to his senses and said, "Don't rush into the cave yet. Haitao, can you find someone?"
"Looking for someone? Who are you looking for?" Lin Haitao asked in confusion.
He Qing replied: "It's someone who is familiar with this place. You have to ask about the details of the cave before entering the cave."
He had a vague premonition of something ominous, and his heart became uneasy.
It's not that he didn't dare to find the ancient tomb and enter, but it was a bit strange. Judging from the situation, no one has set foot in this cave for a long time. I don't know why. And seeing that the cave passes through the resting door and road, there should be many places in this place before.
Few people come to play.
"Isn't this necessary?" Lin Haitao said in surprise, "Why don't we just go in and take a look? It's probably not very deep. We can just go in and come out."
Suning also said nonchalantly: "Yes, aren't we all equipped with the tools for our expedition? We brought a flashlight. If you need other tools, just go to the car and get them."
He Qing said solemnly: "That's not the case. It's better to be safe just in case something unexpected happens."
After all, he didn't know anything about the current situation of this cave, so it was necessary to inquire first.
Lin Haitao said: "Then who should we look for? Brother Qing, don't you have contact with the old man and his nephew? Just call them and ask them."
"No." He Qing shook his head in denial without thinking, and said seriously, "Don't ask them, but ask someone else."
The two old men might know something about this matter, so it is not appropriate to find them. You should find someone who is completely ignorant of this matter, so as not to arouse others' suspicion.
Hearing He Qing's decisive refusal, Lin Haitao was a little puzzled, but he didn't ask any more questions. He just said: "It will be difficult to find him. We have no acquaintances here. Who should we find?"
He Qing said: "Find someone in the hotel where we are staying, call him over, and give him a generous reward."
Following He Qing's suggestion, Lin Haitao quickly contacted a young waiter in the hotel. After explaining the situation, the man hurried over to see them without saying a word.
According to the specific location provided by Lin Haitao, the waiter quickly found them.
The visitor was a young man in his twenties, a native of the local area. According to his information, he was exactly the person He Qing was looking for.
"You can't get in, you can't get in this hole!"
As soon as he saw He Qing and the others, the man's expression changed drastically. He pointed at the cave and shook his head and said, "If you want to explore the cave, I will introduce you to other interesting places. You must not enter this cave!"
He repeatedly emphasized that the cave in front of him could not be entered. Hearing his serious words, He Qing and Lin Haitao both looked puzzled.
He Qing, who knew something about the situation in the cave, was also surprised. He didn't understand why the man said that. It seemed that he was extremely afraid of the cave. He kept far away from the entrance of the cave when he spoke, for fear of getting bad luck or something.
generally.
"Why?!" He Qing and Lin Haitao asked in unison.
"You can't get in anyway!" the man said very seriously. "You listened to me right, otherwise I don't know what the consequences would be. You should be able to see that no one has entered this cave for a long time. It has been several years.
Alright."
He Qing secretly took a breath, not knowing what happened. But from what the man said, there must have been a huge change in this cave, and it was tragic, otherwise people would not be so taboo about entering, but
I don’t know if this incident has anything to do with that ancient tomb and its tomb robbing activities.
But on the surface, He Qing had regained his composure and asked, "What happened? Tell me."
The man hesitated for a moment and said, "This cave is 'haunted'!"
"'Haunted'?!" As soon as these words came out, He Qing and Lin Haitao couldn't help laughing as they looked at each other. The trouble sounded to them as nonsense. They didn't believe in ghosts and gods. They were just using it.
Come to deceive children. Now that they are adults, will they still be frightened by such baseless nonsense?
He Qing and the others laughed, but the man's face became more and more solemn, and his eyes flickered. From time to time, he looked at the entrance of the cave that led to an unknown place.
Suddenly, a gust of dark wind blew from the cave. The man felt it and stepped back repeatedly, with a panic-stricken look on his face, as if a ghost was about to jump out of the cave.
"Are you okay?" Seeing the man's face turning pale, He Qing comforted him, "Is it that scary? We have so many people here with you now, what else is there to be afraid of? First tell us what happened here before.
Well, why do you say this place is 'haunted', and what evidence is there?"
After a long while, the man calmed down and said: "You are outsiders. You have never seen it before, so you don't know the situation of this cave. This cave used to be called the 'Immortal Cave', and people have been going in to play. It is said that
Decades ago, the stalagmites inside could be eaten as food, but after eating, they could only be pulled out from inside. Once out of the hole, they could not be pulled out, or what was pulled out was
Stones. Because the stones in the cave are edible, they feed many beggars and people who are too poor to even eat. Some people from the older generation said that they saw an immortal who came out of the cave.
The goddess in white clothes always helps people around her and guides people who go into the cave to play, so even though the road inside is rugged and difficult to walk, there has never been an accident, but..."
His voice stopped suddenly, as if his throat was choked.
"But what?" He Qing asked.
The man said that the cave was very magical. Although He Qing and others did not believe it because it was just a legend, they were very curious and wanted to know why the situation in the cave changed later.
The man succeeded in whetting their appetites.
The man couldn't help but glance at the entrance of the cave again. After a long time, he continued to speak: "...then a big thing happened. Two gangsters killed someone and hid in the cave. They also captured a hostage.
That was a very young child, and later
The police found this place, and the gangsters resisted, so the police shot them dead on the spot. When they found the child, he had already been killed, and he died in this cave. It was a tragic scene! Since then, there has been no such thing.
No one dares to step into this cave!"
"So that's it!" He Qing suddenly realized, "That's really tragic. The child was innocent, but the two vicious gangsters deserved their punishment. After people die, they should be buried in peace. After so many years, things have also changed.
It’s time to understand, is it okay to go in now?”
After Lin Haitao and Suning listened to the man's story, they were all moved, but then they thought about it, it was nothing, and it would not affect their exploration of the cave.
However, the man said solemnly: "The matter is not over yet!"
I'm sorry that he hasn't finished speaking yet. What he just said is just an introduction to what will be more terrifying later.
"Oh? What else is there?" He Qing asked in surprise.
The man just said that the cave was "haunted", and it probably had something to do with the innocent dead child. But this kind of thing is just to scare people, ghosts can't be so easy to cause trouble.
Although He Qing had seen the lingering resentment of the ghosts of the dead, which could indeed affect people, the term "haunted" was indeed a bit too much, making it hard to believe.
Just listen to the man saying exactly what he said: "After the two gangsters and the child died, the cave became 'haunted'. People who came to work in the surrounding fields often heard the cries of the children, and the two
The threatening and noisy sounds of the gangsters are especially obvious after the sun goes down. Anyone who enters the cave will be cursed. Either they get lost in the cave and disappear without a trace, or they come out and have various accidents. Either they get into accidents or get into trouble.
A serious illness is very evil!"
"No way? So evil?" He Qing couldn't believe it.
When they heard this, Lin Haitao and Suning's expressions couldn't help but change. They must have been a little scared. If they hadn't heard the man say this, they wouldn't have taken it seriously, but now they heard the other person talking more and more mysteriously.
Their confidence was somewhat shaken, and they all wondered if there were really ghosts in the cave.
"Yes, this is true!" The man nodded heavily, "So I advise you not to enter this hole. Why take the risk?"
"No!" He Qing shook his head vigorously, as if he suddenly thought of something.
According to what the man said, the "haunting" happened before Gao Ling was found. In other words, the old man's son and a group of tomb robbers came out of the cave, but nothing happened to them. At least the old man's son is fine now.
When we are still doing business outside, people who go in get lost, people get into accidents or get sick, everything is just a coincidence.
He Qing didn't believe there was something so evil. If there really were ghosts making trouble, then why was there no movement in the cave now?
After calming down, He Qing said firmly: "Haitao, no matter what, we have to go in and take a look."
"I've told you everything, and you still dare to go in?!" the man said in horror.
"What's there to be afraid of? Stand up straight and behave properly. There's nothing to worry about." He Qing replied seriously, "Brother, can you do us a favor and take us in for a look? You must have been in there before.
And it happened more than once, so I know what’s going on inside.”
He Qing planned to explore the inside and outside of the cave first. It would be best to find the entrance to the ancient tomb inside, then go back and enter the tomb to look for treasures.
"Ah?! No, no, no, I won't go!" The man waved his hands repeatedly, his face as white as gold paper.
He Qing smiled and said: "I won't let you go in for nothing, I will give you more reward. I said it was 10,000 before, but now the situation in this cave is special, so I will give you some more money. If you bring
Let's go in and get familiar with the situation. How about I pay you one hundred thousand yuan in one go? I hope you can think about it carefully. After all, one hundred thousand yuan may not be a small amount of money for you, at least with your current salary.
It takes several years to earn so much.”
"Give me one hundred thousand?!" the man said in surprise, but he didn't hesitate much. He quickly shook his head and said, "No, it's too dangerous!"
One hundred thousand dollars is nothing compared to life.
He Qing said: "Do you think the money is too little? Otherwise, we can add an extra 100,000 yuan and offer a reward of 200,000 yuan. Whoever goes in with us will have the money. If you don't want to, then I will
I have to find someone else. I think you are too superstitious about this. Monsters and ghosts are not so rampant. It is just a coincidence. There are still many people who have gone in and nothing happened. It’s just that you don’t know. Even if there is really a problem in the cave,
I also have a way to deal with it!"
"Yeah, you don't know, my brother is not an ordinary person. He is the most powerful Feng Shui master, the youngest but the most profound mage. If he says there is no problem, then there will definitely be no problem. Don't scare yourself!" Lin Hai
Tao suddenly spoke.
He was telling the truth, because he knew He Qing's situation best and knew that the other person was a great Feng Shui master who seemed to know everything. He couldn't tell if there was any evil in this hole. Even if there was, he could still control it. Feng Shui
If a teacher can't do such a thing, then he doesn't have the ability.
"He's a Feng Shui master?!" the man said in shock. He couldn't believe that this young man was actually a great Feng Shui master.
"Of course!" Lin Haitao replied solemnly, "Can you get in? If you don't, then I'll call someone else. The reward of 200,000 yuan is not low, right?"
Two hundred thousand is not a small amount of money in a small place like this. Some people may never earn that much money in their lifetime. Now it only takes a little time to get it. This is undoubtedly a sudden windfall.
"I..." The man was hesitant, and after a long time he said, "Yes, yes, but you have to pay me first?"
He finally agreed. As the saying goes, "a heavy reward will inevitably lead to the death of a husband." If he has money, he will risk his life to give it a try.
He Qing said: "I'll give you half of the deposit first, and give you 100,000, and then I'll give you the 100,000 when everything is done. I don't have that much cash, so I'll write you a check. If you don't believe me, you can call the bank and ask.
.”
"Okay." The man accepted.
He Qing then wrote him a check for 100,000 yuan.
After talking, they were ready to go in.
Before entering, He Qing repeatedly consulted Suning's opinion. He didn't want her to come in, but her attitude was very firm and she would not give in no matter how much he was persuaded.
At this point, He Qing had no choice but to agree.
About half an hour later, He Qing and the others turned on their flashlights and walked toward the cave fully armed.
The moment he stepped into the cave door, a gust of cold wind rushed towards him, making his body numb.
The man who was leading the way at the front was even more shocked and trembling.
But he had already collected He Qing's money, so he had to bite the bullet.
At this moment, even He Qing didn't know whether the front was dangerous or flat.
