Chapter 19 Tomb Search, Excavation (Please support! Please recommend!)

Hearing what Chen Ziyan said, Hu Bayi and the others were also relieved.

It is impossible to say that they don't care, and no one will ignore the hidden crisis around them.

Now with these 'lessons learned', it can be regarded as a little relieved.

"Master Chen, according to what it says, there is a Kwantung Army fortress here?" Wang Kaixuan turned his head quickly, and quickly grasped another important point in Chen Ziyan's words.

Chen Ziyan nodded: "The Kwantung Army Fortress should exist, but it's hard to say whether it is in this area or not. After all, the area of ​​Heifengkou is not small."

He couldn't tell them directly that the Kwantung Army fortress and the ancient tomb he was looking for during this trip were only separated by a wall, right?

It's easy to say, but he can't explain the source of the news at all!

"Don't even think about it, Xiaopang. Even if this is really the fortress left by the Kwantung Army, it has nothing to do with us. There is nothing there except some military supplies."

Hu Bayi didn't know the fat man yet, but he knew what he was thinking from his thieving eyes, so he said angrily.

He was reminding Wang Kaixuan that if he wanted to make a fortune, he had to rely on ancient tombs, and going to the Kwantung Army fortress would only result in a small loss.

"I understand, isn't this a bit curious." Wang Kaixuan could hear what he meant, and nodded repeatedly, expressing that he knew which was more important.

Then everyone searched the rest of the shacks one by one according to the method just now, but apart from finding the other two rotting corpses, they couldn't find anything else.

"Old Hu, get rid of those bones outside later, I guess those are the last batch of tomb robbers who came here." Chen Ziyan pondered for a moment, then said to Hu Bayi.

Although Chen Ziyan didn't have any evidence, considering the time and place of death of these bones, he felt that most likely they belonged to Yanzi and her second uncle's group.

Back then, they came here from Ganggang Yingzi to touch gold, but they encountered the neon remnant soldiers who were trapped here, and were brutally killed by them in the end.

"Thanks to Master Chen for reminding me, I'll do it now!"

After Chen Ziyan's reminder, Hu Bayi also thought of this, and agreed without hesitation.

Wang Kaixuan also immediately figured out the reason behind this, and quickly said: "Old Hu, I will help you!"

The two went to restrain the bones, and Chen Ziyan didn't stay in the smelly shack any longer, and immediately left here with Yingzi.

As for the corpses of the neon soldiers in the shack, Chen Ziyan said that he didn't have the time to worry about them.

Letting them slowly rot here is already the greatest mercy he can bestow.

After Hu Bayi and Wang Kaixuan collected those bones, Chen Ziyan and the others continued with unfinished business.

Time passed slowly like this, and soon it was late at night.

Because after setting up the camp, everyone took turns to rest, so even though it was already midnight, they were still in high spirits without any signs of fatigue.

At this time, Hu Bayi was holding a compass, corresponding to the bright moon in the sky, looking for the specific direction of the ancient tomb.

After wandering in the nearby area for a while, Hu Bayi stood still in one place with a smile on his lips.

"Found it, right here."

Following his words, the rest of the people beside him who held their breaths also showed smiles.

Just find it!
Especially Wang Kaixuan, who immediately rushed over with an engineering shovel and looked at Hu Bayi with glowing eyes: "Old Hu, where are you digging?"

He is now in a state of excitement. If Hu Bayi hadn't pointed out the exact location, he probably would have started to shovel already.

Hu Bayi walked a few steps where he was standing, and finally settled down, pointing to his feet: "This is it!"

As soon as the words fell, Wang Kaixuan had already dropped the shovel, and Hu Bayi quickly put away the compass, took out the engineering shovel and started digging together with Wang Kaixuan.

At the same time, I did not forget to remind: "Let's do it quickly. This place is not suitable for deep burials. The ancient tomb under the fallen leaves is not too deep. Let's find out the treasures inside early, so we can return home earlier. Get out of this damn place."

Wang Kaixuan buried his head in digging hard, and replied in a muffled voice: "You don't need to talk about it, just look at me, Fatty."

Immediately, the two engineers' shovels flew up and down, and every time the shovel fell, it could lift up large pieces of wet soil mixed with dead branches and leaves.

Yingzi stood watching from the side, maybe it was a bit inappropriate to lift, so he asked Chen Ziyan next to him in a low voice: "Brother Chen, why don't we go and help?"

"Let this matter be left to Lao Hu and Fatty." Chen Ziyan could guess what she was thinking, and said with a smile: "The dug hole will be filled with two more people, and we can help them with the logistics."

If it's another place with hard soil, then they naturally can't watch, at least they have to take turns to work.

But the soil here is soft and moist, and the difficulty of excavation is not high, so Hu Bayi and Wang Kaixuan are enough.

Hearing from Chen Ziyan that the logistics work should be done well, Yingzi immediately cleared a place nearby, lit a bonfire and started to boil water.

She felt that Chen Ziyan's words were quite reasonable. Judging by the size of the hole dug by Hu Bayi and the others, it was barely enough to accommodate two people. Even if she wanted to help, she had nowhere to stay. Why not cook a pot of warm soup for them? .

When Hu Bayi and the others dug about five or six meters, Chen Ziyan found that the soil they brought out had been completely dry.

He picked up a lump of soil that had fallen by the hole, first put it in front of his nose and smelled it, then twisted the soil lightly, and said to the two people in the hole: "Old Hu, fat man, the next move is light." At this point, the sealing mound should have been dug."

Hearing Chen Ziyan's reminder, Hu Bayi also grabbed a handful of the soil under his feet and shone it with a flashlight. He saw that the soil was fine in texture and distinct in grains, and it had indeed reached the mound of the tomb.

Thinking of this, he said to Wang Kaixuan next to him, "Fatty, slow down next."

"What's wrong?" Wang Kaixuan looked at him puzzled.

"We have already dug to the sealing soil layer, and the bottom should be the top of the tomb, so we must prevent touching the mechanism." Hu Ba glanced at his feet and said.

"Is there still a mechanism on the top of the tomb?"

"There may not be other tombs, but the tomb under our feet may not be without it. Most of the tombs of Jinren nobles like this have the popular 'Tianbaolonghuo Liuli Roof' at that time. If this thing is broken, can we be safe? It's one thing to go back."

"Tianbaolonghuo Liuliding?" Wang Kaixuan frowned and repeated: "What is this?"

For what Hu Bayi said, he now often hears only half of it.

"It's a kind of mechanism that ends together." Hu Bayi explained to him: "It is usually placed on the ceiling of a hollow tomb. First, a layer of very thin glazed tiles is laid, and then bags of western dragon oil are placed on the tiles. Finally, cover it with a layer of glazed tiles, if someone destroys this layer of glazed tiles, the fire dragon oil from the Western Regions, which is flammable in the wind, will burn the tomb and all the accompanying burials in an instant."

"Be good!" Hearing this, Wang Kaixuan immediately slowed down a bit, and said in amazement: "There is still this thing."
