Robbery Cave 2
The roof of the Fish Bone Temple swayed slightly in the mountain wind, making a creaking sound, which made people panic. However, after observing it for such a long time, we found that although the temple was dilapidated, it was very strong, probably because of its beams.
The frame is related to the entire fish bone.
Less than one-fifth of the Dragon King statue in the temple is left, and the upper part has long gone. The base of the altar is in the shape of a coral plate, also made of clay, and the color on it has faded.
, looks quite ugly.
According to my estimation, if there is a robbery cave in the temple, it is most likely under this mud altar. The fat man asked me if I had any basis for it, but I didn't tell him that my inspiration came from the popular martial arts at that time.
We put all our belongings on the ground, rolled up our sleeves and worked hard to move the altar with the fat man. We broke off a lot of mud on the altar, but the whole altar and the small half of the clay statue remained motionless.
I thought to myself that if such a reckless move doesn't work, is there some mechanism?
But the fat man didn't care about the mechanism, got angry, picked up the engineering shovel and smashed the altar. Although the altar was made of mud, it was very hard. The fat man cut and smashed, and he was sweating all over before he smashed half of it.
The white stone stubble is exposed.
This means that there is no passage under the altar, so we have been busy for a long time in vain, and we can't help but feel a little discouraged.
Da Jinya was always there to help. When the fat man smashed the altar, he stood far away to prevent being hit by the flying mud and rocks. He suddenly said: Mr. Hu, Mr. Fat, look at the altar and see if there is anything behind it.
The secret tunnel may have been built on the side, not the straight up and down tunnel we imagined.
After Big Gold Tooth reminded me, I bent down and looked behind the altar. The altar was about half a person tall and rectangular. It was located deep inside the temple. The space behind it was so small that only one person could pass by.
I had seen it at the back before and thought it was a mud tire that was integrated with the altar. Also, I had a preconceived idea and always thought that the entrance to the tunnel should be on the ground, so I never thought of this.
At this time, he observed carefully and knocked on the back of the altar with his hand. Unexpectedly, he saw an empty echo. Moreover, he knew from the feel that there was a thick layer of wood in the mud outside.
I raised my foot and kicked it, and with a few clicks, a hole in the ground was exposed on the back of the altar. When the board was lifted, it turned out that the hole was really under the altar, but the top was made of bricks and mud. It was solid and thick, and there was nothing fake about it.
, the entrance at the back is a wooden board, and the outside is covered with the same mud as the entire altar, and then painted with colors. The wooden board is actually movable and can be opened and closed from the inside and outside, and it cannot be seen from the outside at all.
I said to Da Jinya: OK, Mr. Jin, you really woke up the dreamer with one sentence. How did you come up with it?
Big Jinya showed his big golden teeth and said: I said it casually, but I didn't expect it to be covered up. It seems that we are not bad luck today and can make a big profit.
The three of us couldn't help feeling ecstatic, and we hurriedly moved everything behind the cave entrance. I turned on the wolf-eye flashlight and looked inside. The diameter of the cave entrance was large or small, and even a fat man could climb in.
Wealthy, but with his body shape, he couldn't turn around inside. If he wanted to retreat halfway, he would have to crawl back with his feet forward.
I blurted out and praised: What a great trick, little fat man, Mr. Jin, look at how this hole was dug, you can see the lines, the round places look like those drawn with a fucking compass, and there are shovel marks on the hole,
One by one, not to mention more symmetrical.
Da Jinya came from a noble family, and he knew some skills. He praised him repeatedly, but the fat man couldn't see the reason. The fat man hugged two big white geese and said: It's time for these two pieces of material, let them
Be a trailblazer.
I said: "Don't be busy right now. The Robber's Cave is closed all year round. Let's disperse the foul smell inside first, and then let a goose go down to explore the way. We have been tossing for most of the day, let's eat and drink first."
The fat man put the two geese back into the basket and took out the beef jerky and white wine. Anyway, this Dragon King Temple is fake, so we don't have to worry too much. The three of them sat on the altar to eat and drink.
While we were eating, we discussed the matter of entering the Robber's Cave. Da Jinya had always had a doubt. Since the mountain was empty, why did he go to such trouble to dig a tunnel in the Fish Bone Temple? Wouldn't it be good to find a cave and dig it in?
I say otherwise. Although there are Kuster caves here, which are widely distributed and large in scale, based on the analysis of the information we have obtained, we can make this judgment:
The locals call this place Longling or Shepanpo. The place name is not important. They just describe the complex terrain here.
The most important point is that almost everyone who knows this place says that the caves in this mountain are mazes. The name of Longling Cave comes from here. So I think this cave is not a whole big cave, but fragmented.
Some are large and some are small. In some places the mountain is solid, and in others it is empty. These holes are of different depths and lengths, and they are connected to each other and intricate, so it is not easy for people who fall in to get out.
Since the gold-touching captain who built the Fish Bone Temple was able to accurately find the location of the ancient tomb in a broken mountain range, he must have something that ordinary people couldn't, and his ability to assess the situation was extremely good.
This robbery hole goes down diagonally. Tomb robbing also requires looking, hearing and asking carefully. It means to look around and use your eyes to observe Feng Shui to find the specific location of the ancient tomb. This is the most difficult thing. Distinguish the quality of the ancient tomb by smelling the soil and grasp the ancient tomb.
The information about the geological structure and soil quality was used to gain trust, and the information about the ancient tomb was obtained through chatting with local elders. In the end, in the method of digging holes, the proprietary technology is to accurately calculate the orientation, angle and angle in advance.
According to the terrain and other factors, a hole was dug from a distance, which leads directly to the place where the tomb owner's coffin is placed.
The robber cave in front of us is slightly tilted downward, so it is probably just a cut-out hole. As long as we keep an eye on the straight-line distance, even if the robber cave is halfway into the cave, we can still pass through the cave in the pre-calculated direction.
, continue digging towards the underground palace so as not to get trapped in the Longling Cave and lose the direction.
I have great admiration for the master who dug this hole. This hole should be the best golden route to the ancient cemetery nearby. Unfortunately, I was not in the same era and could not exchange experiences with that senior.
The three of them ate wine and meat, and smoked a few cigarettes. It was estimated that most of the energy in the cave had been exhausted. What surprised me was that the length of the cave was too long.
Previously, I asked Fatty to buy two big geese. I wanted to tie the goose legs with a rope and rush into the thief's cave to test the quality of the air, but I didn't expect the cave to be so deep.
I said to Fatty and Da Jinya: The Robbery Cave is very likely to go through the caves around Longling. The caves extend in all directions and there will be water in them. In that case, we don’t have to worry about breathing. If it is a real cave, then let’s go in.
Each subsequent breath increases the concentration of carbon dioxide
Da Jinya said: This is very dangerous. There are not enough measures to prevent respiratory poisoning. We can't go in rashly. Since we have found the robbery hole, it is better to seal it up first and wait until we are fully prepared before taking action. This ancient tomb will not open itself.
The long legs ran away.
I said, "Don't worry about it. I'll clear the way ahead, put on a simple gas mask, and after walking for a while, I'll put a candle in the hole. Once the candle goes out, it means there are too many harmful gases that can't support the burning of the air, so I'll get back right away."
That is, you can also tie two big geese with a rope and drive them ahead. If you see the two big geese wilting, you can immediately move back to relieve yourself. Besides, although these simple gas masks of mine are not as good as
A professional gas mask can also handle it for a while.
Seeing that what I said was so safe, Da Jinya also became excited and insisted on going into the underground palace with us to have a look. This is the problem with people who work in this industry. If you don't let him know where the underground palace is, that's all. Once you know
It's here, and it's nearby. If you don't go in and see what you can do, you'll give up.
Not to mention ordinary people like Da Jinya, the great scholar Guo Moruo and some archaeologists have jointly written to the Prime Minister many times, requesting the opening of Li Zhi's Qianling Mausoleum. They made a grand statement, saying that they were worried that the Qianling Mausoleum would happen to be built in an earthquake zone.
, all the cultural relics in the underground palace will be destroyed once there is an earthquake. In fact, these scholars want to see the things in the underground palace in their lifetime. They have been doing this work all their lives. The more years they work, the more curious they become. When they think of the burial objects,
They were so impatient that they could no longer hold back the authentic works of Wang Xizhi in the book. Finally, the Prime Minister gave them the approval: not to move within ten years. Only then did these people give up.
So I understand the mood of Da Jinya very well. If an antique dealer can go into the underground palace of the tomb and have a look, then he will have something to talk about after returning, and his status will be improved by one or two levels.
I persuaded him a few more words, and seeing that he was determined to go, I gave him a pair of gas masks, and then the fat man opened the way, leading the two geese and crawling into the thief's cave.
I followed closely behind, holding a lit candle in my hand, and Big Gold Tooth followed at the end. The three of them crawled forward slowly. There were wooden frames for fixing every other section in the cave. Although there was no need to worry about collapse,
It was dark and oppressive. After climbing forward for a while, my eyes felt stung. I hurriedly lit a candle and it didn't go out. This showed that the air quality allowed us to continue moving forward.
The further I crawled, the more depressed I became. As I was crawling, Big Jinya patted my feet from behind. I looked back at him and saw that Dajinya’s face was covered in sweat and he was breathing heavily. I knew he was tired.
After that, he called the fat man in front of him to stop and put the candle on the ground. Just when he was about to ask the big gold tooth how it was doing and whether he could continue to crawl forward, he saw that the candle on the ground suddenly went out. Book Alliance
