This place is not big, but after more than 20 people came in, it seemed a bit crowded.
At this time, everyone can be sure whether this cave was deliberately buried or completely buried. This is a big project. This underground cave passage is not short. Even if it is easier to bury, it is still a huge project.
"There is nothing here. Is the thing gone?"
Sandara walked around and said disappointedly, there was a stone wall in front of them, and there was nothing else.
"There's a door here!"
Li Yang shook his head slightly, walked in front of the stone wall, and whispered something.
His hand was still stroking the stone wall, and the corners of his eyebrows twitched slightly. Sandara immediately came over. There was really a door on this stone wall, but the traces of the door were not obvious, and the surrounding environment was too dark. Before,
Let Sandara ignore it.
"There's a keyhole here!"
Sandara also touched the stone wall and screamed in surprise.
There was indeed a small keyhole in the middle of the stone wall, and this was what Li Yang paid attention to at this time.
This keyhole is a little complicated. It is a kind of mechanical lock. These are not the key points. The key point is that such a lock requires a special key to open it.
This point has the same effect as the machine array that Li Yang encountered when he was looking for Tiancong Yunjian.
The difference is that the mechanism array is very complicated and difficult to crack by manpower, while the mechanism lock does not need to be cracked, as long as you have the key.
Sandara suddenly said: "How about we blow it up?"
"Can't explode!"
As soon as Sundara finished speaking, Li Yang shook his head vigorously. Violent cracking of mechanical devices was taboo. There were many large stones behind this stone wall. If exploded, these stones would completely seal the tomb.
Not only that, there are also some primitive and crude gunpowders inside the stone wall. Although they are primitive, they are numerous. If these gunpowder explodes, the entire underground cave will be buried. I am afraid that the people inside will not be able to avoid the fate of being buried alive.
Sandara only mentioned it when he wanted to blow up the stone wall. Li Yang objected, but he didn't care.
Haidong on the side walked over, got some dough from somewhere, kneaded it, and put it into the keyhole.
Li Yang opened his mouth and shook his head.
Haidong looked like he wanted to figure out the shape of the lock so that he could get the key out of it, but Li Yang remembered that this type of mechanical lock can only be opened with the original key.
But what Haidong does is always a hope. Matching the key is not a brute force attack. The premise is that the keyhole is not damaged, which will trigger a chain reaction.
After a while, Haidong took out the dough.
Looking at the shape of the dough, Haidong frowned slightly. Haidong was a master of lock picking when he was in the army and had received special training. He could tell at a glance that this lock was not simple.
Mechanical locks are different from ordinary locks. They may not be as complicated as safe locks, but their particularity is unmatched by other locks.
Haidong had seen this type of machine lock once before when he was on a mission. This was the second time he had seen it.
He was also responsible for cracking the machine lock last time, but unfortunately failed. In the end, he spent a lot of effort to retrieve the original key and complete the task.
"Isn't it easy?"
Zhao Yong stepped forward and asked in a low voice. Haidong's expression told him that the matter was definitely not simple.
"Machine lock, difficult!"
Haidong smiled bitterly and shook his head. He was confident about other locks, but he had no confidence in the mechanism lock. This kind of lock and key were made together using special techniques. They were closely related and could not be copied.
"But I can give it a try!" Haidong said again. He had cracked the machine lock before. Although he didn't succeed, he still had some experience.
Zhao Yong nodded. If Haidong couldn't break the lock, then none of them would be of use. When he was in the army, Haidong was the strongest person in this regard.
"Brother Li, does this key seem familiar to you?"
Liu Gang suddenly took a step forward, pointed at the dough in Haidong's hand and said that it is difficult to copy the key of the machine lock, but the shape of the key is still very standard, and the dough still looks like a key.
"familiar?"
Li Yang's brows knit together tightly. Within a few seconds, his eyes suddenly lit up and he blurted out: "Zodiac trap box?"
"Yes, Brother Li, I think this key is very similar to the key we found in the machine box!"
Liu Gang nodded immediately. Li Yang was exposed to so many things that he couldn't remember them for a while.
Unlike Liu Gang, his eyes almost popped out when he saw the key in the zodiac machine box, so he was very impressed. This comparison just now revealed the problem.
Zhao Yong and Haidong looked at each other, but neither of them spoke.
From what Li Yang and Liu Gang said, it seems that they have a key in their hands, which may be the original key to the machine lock.
"The machine box is from the Zhengde period of the Ming Dynasty. Lu Ming was sent to Yunnan during that period. The key is from an earlier period. It's really possible."
The more Li Yang said it, the brighter his eyes became. The zodiac machine box was a very good treasure. It was the one Li Yang picked up from Rongbaozhai. But what the key was for, Li Yang had never known.
In addition, the mechanism box is very high-end and is in the palace. The key to keeping such a treasure is definitely not simple. It is really possible that it is the key to the stone wall mechanism lock.
"Let's go out first!"
Thinking of this, Li Yang no longer hesitated and walked back immediately. The stone wall could not be opened for the time being, so he could only wait.
This is not a machine array. It can be opened without a key. Without a key, they can only stare. To crack it violently is not as good as mobilizing a large excavator to dig directly from the top, but that would make too much noise.
Sandara, Zhao Yong and others followed him out.
Then all the people followed out. They couldn't open the stone wall, and there was no use staying here. Moreover, the environment inside was not suitable for staying for a long time.
"Brother Li, can I go back and get the key?"
As soon as he came out, Liu Gang took the initiative to go back and get the keys. This trip was not close and it would take some time to go back and forth.
Li Yang hesitated for a moment, then shook his head and said, "No, Ma Liang is still at home. Ask him to bring the mechanism box over directly. This will save some time!"
Ma Liang has been staying in Li Yang's villa and guarding the treasure house at home. In order to save time, he can only come first.
As for the safety of your home, just ask the old man for help. With my help, there will definitely be no problem for those babies.
In fact, Li Yang didn't know that even if he didn't say hello to the old man, there would be no problem with the family's treasures. There were many people around him secretly protecting these treasures.
Liu Gang didn't speak, and Zhao Yong and the others also nodded.
Letting Ma Liang and the others come over is currently the best option. Firstly, it can save time, and secondly, it can increase the protective force around Li Yang. This time they are hunting for treasure, and no one knows if any other accidents will happen.
Moreover, this is still within Myanmar, not within the country, so you should be more careful.
Zhao Kui went out to contact Ma Liang. They brought a high-frequency radio into the mountain, but they could only contact outside the mountain and not within the country. This kind of thing could not be entrusted to others. It had to be done by one's own people.
While waiting, Haidong was not idle, trying to find a key to open the lock.
For a whole day, Haidong matched three keys, but all of them failed in the end. This was a big blow to Haidong, who had always been confident.
Haidong could crack many modern high-tech locks, but this ancient mechanical lock really stumped him, making Haidong sigh loudly that the wisdom of ancient people must not be underestimated.
There were many things in ancient times that were indeed better than what modern people can do.
More than a day later, Ma Liang and Li Er finally arrived at the canyon. They set off immediately after receiving the news from Zhao Kui. When they arrived in Myanmar, Sundala's people immediately sent them over.
The key was still hidden in the zodiac sign box. The two couldn't open it, so they brought the box over directly.
This mechanism box is really difficult for ordinary people to open, but in Li Yang's hands, he opened it in a few minutes.
Taking out the key, Haidong could confirm at a glance that it was the original key. For more than a day, he had been studying the machine lock. Whether it was the original key could be understood at a glance.
This result made everyone even more excited.
The group of people immediately returned to the underground cave. The stone walls of the cave had been tidied up, lights were set up, and some other things were added, which at least allowed people to stay here and not suffocate to death underground.
Standing in front of the stone wall, Li Yang took a deep breath and slowly inserted the key.
As soon as the key was put in, there was a "click" sound inside. This kind of sound had never happened before.
Zhao Kui, Haidong and others all looked at each other, and everyone could see the surprise in each other's eyes. After preparing for so long, working hard for so long, it was finally time to reap the rewards.
After the key was unlocked, the door on the stone wall moved on its own, and then there was a harsh friction sound.
Li Yang's ability was always on. He knew that the mechanism inside was opening. After all the mechanisms were opened, the door was officially opened.
After a few minutes, the sound gradually disappeared. Li Yang reached out his hand and pushed slowly on the stone door.
"Creak"
The stone door slowly opened, and everyone outside had smiles on their faces.
After the stone gate, there is another dark passage, but Li Yang knows that this passage is not long, and it will not take long before you can reach the real tomb location, which is enough to shock everyone.
"Let's go in!"
Li Yang waved his hand. Zhao Yong took the lead and walked in front of Li Yang. Behind him were Zhao Kui and Haidong. Sandara ordered a few more soldiers to go to the front. He wanted to be the first to enter.
Li Yang, on the contrary, fell in the middle.
Li Yang chuckled and shook his head. He understood that these people were thinking about his safety.
The cave in front was no longer long. After about ten meters, several people finally came to a larger place. Zhao Yong was the first to enter. As soon as he entered, he froze there stupidly.
The people behind him were not much better. Everyone who entered was the same, with their mouths wide open and looking around stiffly, with incredible expressions on their faces.
