209 is separated from the Treasure Hall by a wall.
Partridge Whistle had enough laughter and started to inspect this tall and magnificent Xuanmen.
Seeing this, Ding Ze stopped making trouble, made the most terrifying expression he could imagine at Father Thomas, and started to move.
The Xuanmen of the ancient tomb, as the main gate, has been full of mechanisms since ancient times... When designing the ancient tomb, the owner of the tomb wanted to use these mechanisms to kill the tomb robbers.
This kind of thinking is very strange. After all, who is a normal tomb robber with a moderate level of skill? Who would enter through the front door? Isn't that a fool who obviously knows that there is a trap and still goes up?
Therefore, the mechanism at the main entrance can only protect against those lucky people who don't know anything and happen to find the ancient tomb.
Partridge Whistle has rich experience and quickly determined that this is a quicksand door. "The setting of the quicksand door is relatively common. After the person mourning the tomb owner leaves the ancient tomb, he closes the Xuanmen from the outside, and the quicksand is pre-set behind the door."
It will fall and accumulate behind the door, ensuring that the door cannot be pushed open again."
If it is really a quicksand door, it will be a bit troublesome to deal with.
But behind this mysterious gate, there is no quicksand.
Hearing Partridge Whistle's words, Ding Ze immediately squatted down, took a look first, then stretched out his hand to touch, "This ancient tomb was not used to bury people, but was used as a treasure house. When the Xixia palace was in a hurry, it was about to be buried.
The treasures are all hidden in order to make a comeback in the future, so there is no quicksand behind the door."
Ding Ze pointed to the ground and said.
Partridge Whistle and Monk Liao Chen lowered their heads and looked at it. Without much thinking, they were sure that this was indeed the case.
Monk Liaochen said, "The setting of this quicksand door relies on the track at the bottom of the door. If quicksand blocks the door, some fine sand will squeeze out of the door. It seems that we can just push the door in."
After confirming that there were no traps in the Xuanmen, the four people immediately started to move, working in pairs, each pushing half of the way.
Although Xuanmen does weigh several hundred kilograms, they are four big men anyway, so it is not difficult to push them away.
Soon, with a dull, harsh, and nerve-wracking creaking sound, the Xuanmen was pushed open to allow them to enter.
Upon seeing this, Partridge Whistle immediately took the lead, walking at the front, and first shot out a fire spirit, roughly illuminating the tomb passage.
After taking a look, I saw that the tomb passage was quite long and flat, and didn't look anything special.
But after all, this treasure hall was originally designed to be used as a mausoleum, so there is a high chance that various fatal mechanisms will be installed in places like the tomb passages that most tomb robbers need to pass through.
Monk Liaochen, as the captain of the Mojin School, accompanied the Partridge Sentinel on this trip, and that was the purpose, he reminded him.
"Xuanmen is easy to enter, but Xuandao kills people..."
Ding Ze listened quietly, and soon, Partridge Whistle was still walking in front, holding his breath, taking one step at a time, carefully choosing his footing.
Many people should have seen this part of the plot in related film and television works. In most cases, the mechanisms in places like tomb passages will indeed be triggered by the tomb bricks that make up the ground...
That is, if you accidentally step on a special brick, then click it, the mechanism will activate, or arrows will be shot, or there will be flying knives, or even poisonous smoke.
In short, the tomb owner will try every means to trap the tomb robbers to death in order to ensure his own peace.
The partridge whistle moves very slowly.
Ding Ze was still walking in second place. Even though he knew that there was no mechanism in this tomb passage, he still kept some distance from the partridge whistle as he had just said and moved forward at the pace of the partridge whistle.
The same goes for Father Thomas and Monk Liao Chen behind him.
The four people moved forward silently.
There were many dumb viewers in the live broadcast room who were on tenterhooks and extremely nervous.
"Will there be an agency?"
"Will the anchor be cool here?"
"Damn it, this girl shouldn't be watching this kind of thing in the middle of the night. I already feel like I won't be able to walk anymore. What if I'm walking around my house and something suddenly activates and something ejaculates?
What should you do if you hit me?"
Ding dong, Lao Wang from next door appeared: "Miss, it depends on what it is and where it was shot."
"......."
-------------------
According to the description in the original work, this tomb passage is approximately twenty-three feet long.
Three feet equals ten meters, which means the total length is about eighty meters.
No surprises.
The Partridge Whistle was the first to successfully reach the end of the tomb passage. At the end was a round arched jade door.
The Jade Gate is tall and wide, with a round hole of exactly the same size and shape on both sides.
There is no doubt that according to the structure of the ancient tomb, after entering through the Xuanmen and walking through the tomb passage, the next step should be the Hades Hall, where the coffin of the tomb owner is located.
Then, if the ancient tomb is big enough, there will be side halls on both sides of the Hades Hall.
After passing through the Hades Hall, there should be an apse, so that the entire ancient tomb can be considered complete.
Ding Zeru was thinking and thinking, and he was suddenly surprised and found, "Damn it, when did I know so many things?"
This is a very strange feeling.
The explanation seems to be that I have read three hundred Tang poems by heart and can recite them even if I can't compose them.
"I have a question," Ding Ze put aside the inexplicable thoughts in his head and said with a smile, "Are these Xixia people not smart enough? Or do they think that the tomb robbers in later generations are not smart enough?"
When Partridge Whistle heard this, he didn't react for a moment. After all, he was too impatient. Although he knew that there was something strange when he saw the Jade Gate, if Monk Liaochen was not here and was anxious, he must have already started to think of ways to crack the Jade Gate.
mechanism, without thinking that maybe the passage into the Hades is somewhere else.
"Brother Ding, what do you say?"
Ding Ze stretched out his hand and pointed at the copper beam above the Jade Gate. There was a huge lock in the middle of the copper beam.
"I have never seen any ancient tomb with a lock on the door. This would be a bit superfluous and would just tell the tomb robbers that this is a trap."
In fact, this part is very interesting when you think about it carefully. It may be the most interesting part in the whole plot of "Tongtian Grand Buddha Temple".
How to say?
Does the Jade Gate have a mechanism? Does the round hole with symmetry on both sides also have a mechanism?
The answer to both questions is yes.
However, if you know the original plot of this place, you should actually understand it this way.
Immediately, the partridge sentry opened the tomb bricks and found the passage leading to the Hades Palace below... This passage, to be precise, is not a regular passage, but is specially set up to trap tomb robbers, otherwise there would be nothing inside.
There are so many poisonous insects.
And the mechanism of this jade gate and the two round holes next to it... are also settings to trap tomb robbers.
However, comparing the two, if you find a way to crack the mechanism here and enter the Hades Palace from here, it will actually be much safer!
In other words, the reason why the person who designed this mausoleum placed such a copper lock on the bronze beam of the Jade Gate was a cunning psychological suggestion.
Ding Ze tried to imagine the designer's thoughts in his mind.
It should feel like this.
"Hello tomb robbers, first of all, congratulations on finding this ancient tomb."
"Now that you are in front of the Jade Gate, if you are not stupid, you should have realized that both this Jade Gate and the round holes on both sides are full of traps. Once triggered, there will be no life or death."
"What are you going to do?"
"Otherwise, I'll give you a hint. Maybe you've already thought of it. There must be another safe passage under your feet."
