The tomb was not difficult to dig, and under the light of the torches, hundreds of people worked together, sledgehammers were raised, shovels were waved, and the sand and stones flew up, and soon the tomb door was exposed.
The tomb door is carved by a complete piece of bluestone, about a person is three feet high and three feet wide, and several soldiers wielded dozens of pounds of sledgehammers to knock on it, although the trembling dust fluttered to the ground, but it was still intact.
These soldiers couldn't help but have a headache, and they all held on to the handle of the hammer and gasped: "This tomb looks like it's a thousand years old, I didn't expect the tomb door to be so strong, but how to open it" "Third child, go and smash the tomb door open" Xiahou Ba crossed his hands on his waist and commanded the third Xiahou, who was amazingly strong.
"Okay, look at me" The third Xiahou said yes, lifted the eighty-pound sledgehammer to the door of the tomb, rolled up his sleeves, spit a few mouthfuls of saliva in the palms of both hands, and picked up the sledgehammer and smashed it violently.
Under the tremendous impact, cracks slowly appeared in the tomb gate, and finally the earth crumbled and collapsed, revealing the black tomb inside the tomb tunnel.
"Great, it's finally opened" Hundreds of black-clad captains cheered in unison, this was the first tomb robbery since their formation, which was a good start.
Dozens of Wei pawns wielded shovels and were busy for a while, cleaning up all the smashed bluestones and completely opening the way to the center of the tomb.
"Come with me" Xiahou Ba held a torch and was about to be the first to enter.
The manager hurriedly stepped forward to stop: "Wait" Xiahou Ba frowned and asked, "The tomb door has been opened, why did Mr.
Gongming prevent me from entering?"
Guan Zhen said: "I look at the words on the tombstone, at least more than 1,000 years ago, the tomb has been isolated from the world all year round, I am afraid that it will breed all kinds of biogas poisonous mist, and if you rush in, you will suffer from it."
Let the tomb dry overnight, and it's not too late to enter tomorrow when the sun rises at three poles."
This tomb was built on a branch of Taihang Mountain, and the surrounding area was inaccessible, so it was not afraid of being discovered by the people.
Xiahou Ba thought for a while, and felt that what Guan Yu said was reasonable, so he ordered everyone to rest on the spot and wait for dawn to go inside to find out.
After receiving Xiahou Ba's command, everyone sat on the ground, either lying or lying, and began to rest.
At the beginning, many people were whispering, some people said that Mr.
Guan Gongming might be worried that there were "big zongzi" in the tomb, so he did not dare to enter in the middle of the night, and waited until dawn when the sun was strong.
But then again, there are four or five hundred people, swords, guns, bows and arrows, even if there are big dumplings in it and the corpse crawls out of the coffin, there is nothing to be afraid of.
So the discussion quickly died down, and everyone slowly entered the dream, and the snoring was all over the place for a while.
"General Xiahou, General Xiahou" I don't know how long it took, when Xiahou Ba was sleeping in a daze, he felt someone pushing his shoulder, and hurriedly opened his eyes to look, only to find that it was Guan Lu who was calling him with a smile.
"Oh, what does Mr.
Guan command" Xiahou Ba rubbed his sleepy eyes and asked in a daze.
Guan Zhen said solemnly: "The tomb has been dried overnight, it should be possible to enter, why don't the generals take advantage of the fact that the soldiers have not woken up yet, and quietly search with me, maybe there will be something to gain." ” Xiahou Ba is a smart person, he can understand that it is inconvenient to do anything when there are more people, and it is not convenient to fill his pockets if there are things he likes, after all, there is no impermeable wall in the world, and it will not be good if it reaches Cao Cao's ears that day.
Immediately got up, and quietly hugged his fist to the pipe and thanked him: "Thank you Mr.
Gongming for reminding me." ” At this moment, it is the time when the sky is about to dawn, the sky will not be bright, the east is white, and the tired captain who has been tired in the middle of the night is sleeping, and the snoring is coming and going.
Occasionally, a few people saw Xiahou Ba get up, and they also pretended to sleep with the mentality that more things are better than less.
Xiahou Ba gently woke up Xiahouwei, and the two brothers followed behind Guan Lu and walked to the door of the tomb together.
When he came to the door, Xiahou Ba instructed Xiahou Wei to check the wind in front of the door, and he and Guan Lu went in advance to find out.
Xiahou Wei understood, nodded and agreed: "Brother must be careful when he enters, the younger brother guards outside the door, and shouts if there is something." ” Xiahou Ba and Guan Lu each held torches, and the other one carried a sword, and cautiously entered the tomb one after the other.
The tomb road made of black bricks is not very long, about a dozen zhang long, and the walls are covered with dense moss all around, which looks eerie.
Xiahou Ba held his breath and followed behind Guan Lu, and slowly came to the center of the tomb.
To Xiahouba's disappointment, the tomb was not too big, and there was nothing of value, except for some dusty clay figurines and some rusty bronze swords.
What gold, silver, jewelry, what treasures, not even a copper coin.
"Alas, it turned out to be a poor ghost's tomb, and it was a waste of a night's time" Xiahou Ba couldn't hide the disappointment on his face, and turned around to leave, "Trouble Mr.
Gongming to use dim sum in the future, if Da Wei is not in urgent need of military salaries, he will not do such an act."
Guan Lu did not answer Xiahou Ba's words directly, but walked around a thousand-year-old coffin in the center of the tomb, muttering to himself: "Strange, according to my years of experience, this place is surrounded by mountains and cypresses, surrounded by mountains and waters, and belongs to the best feng shui treasure land."
If it weren't for the physiognomic master who had done the Tao and couldn't find out, and only the venerable princely generals could invite such a feng shui master, why was there so much poverty in this tomb, it seemed to be a cold tomb?"
Without waiting for Xiahou Ba to speak, Guan Lu inserted the torch into the gap in the tomb wall, and used the iron sword in his hand to pry the coffin, making a "squeak" sound.
Xiahou Ba held the mentality of "thieves don't go empty", holding a torch in one hand to illuminate, and wielding a sword in the other hand to help.
The two of them were busy for a while, splitting and prying, and finally opened the top lid of the coffin, and after moving a gap, a foul smell of decay emitted a gust of rot.
The two of them stayed away together, and when the smell of decay had dissipated a little, they came forward to observe, only to see a dry skeleton lying in the coffin, which had become a little dark brown due to age.
Around the skeleton was a pile of bamboo slips, and the dense handwriting could be faintly seen, but nothing else.
"Alas, it's really a disappointment, the owner of this tomb is so poor that he sold all the things in the tomb, and I'm afraid it won't be enough to pay the military salaries of the captains."
Xiahou Ba put away his sword and returned it to its sheath, shook his head and sighed.
Guan Lu picked up a roll of bamboo slips with an iron sword, looked at it carefully, and changed color in shock after a glance: "Alas, it was really a big water that washed the Dragon King Temple, it turned out to be the tomb of this strange person." t1706231537:
