Chapter 184
In a short distance of ten kilometers, we were bumpy for nearly three hours.This is also impossible. The road from Nanping Town to Shenwu Mountain is full of potholes. In addition, it has been snowing for the past two days. The road has been squeezed by a lot of snow, making it extremely difficult to drive.

At first, the driver of the van was reluctant to leave, saying that he was afraid of skidding. It was not until Wang Jiong added 100 yuan to him and tied an iron chain to the wheel that the driver was willing to pull us.

Even so, the driver did not pull us to Shenwu Mountain, but pulled us one mile away from Shenwu Mountain, put us down, and said yes, there is no road ahead, we must go Let's get there on our own.

In this regard, Wang Jiong didn't say anything. After paying the fare, he found a tree branch for each of us as a crutch.

Just like that, a group of five of us walked towards Shenwu Mountain leaning on tree branches.

Frankly speaking, although the surrounding area of ​​Shenwu Mountain is relatively poor in modern times, it was known as the hometown of generals in ancient times. Many famous generals went out from this Shenwu Mountain. Longxiang is full of talents.

However, time has passed and the situation has changed. The former hometown of generals has now become a poor village. It has to be said that things are impermanent.

It took about an hour, and the five of us finally arrived at Shenwu Mountain. From a distance, the entire Shenwu Mountain had completely turned into a snow mountain, and the houses of the surrounding villagers were like a deserted place due to the snow. It looks like a white yurt, surrounding Shenwu Mountain, presenting a picturesque scene.

"Brother Luo, did you see that is where the old crow committed suicide?" Wang Jiong stood at the foot of Shenwu Mountain, raised his hand and pointed to the left.

I looked along the place where he pointed, and found that there was a cave about ten meters away from us, and I could faintly see the corpses of some old crows lying on the ground.

I frowned and didn't say a word, just followed Wang Jiong and walked in that direction.

When we came to the location of the cave, there was a huge stone slab at the entrance of the cave, which blocked the entire cave. Then Wang Jiong gave each of us a cigarette and said: "Several smoke a cigarette!" , warm your body."

After taking the cigarette, I asked him why he didn't go in directly.

He rubbed his frozen hands and said, "Brother Luo, this is the entrance to the mausoleum. You can enter as you please, and you must have the permission of your superiors."

I glanced at him, lit a cigarette, took a puff, and looked at the surrounding environment, and found that the location of the entrance to the mausoleum was well chosen. The external air is horizontal, the internal air stops growing, and the air is stored in the soil.

Opening the entrance here is an excellent place.

"Brother Wang, it's freezing cold, how long do we have to wait outside?" Xie Yinshan said suddenly.

"It won't be long!" Wang Jiong replied, raised his hand and knocked on the stone slab.

His movement of knocking on the stone slab was a bit weird. First he knocked three times with his left hand on the position where the stone slab was in contact with the ground, and then he knocked seven times on the left side of the stone slab close to the wall.

I took all this into my eyes, and thought to myself, this must be the signal to open the door.

Sure enough, just after Wang Jiong finished knocking on the slate, a sound came out from inside, which was also the sound of knocking on the slate.

As soon as I heard the voice, I looked at Wang Jiong, and I saw his brows furrowed tightly, cursing secretly: "Fuck, what the hell is this Xie Leiting doing."

He muttered a few words cursingly, then raised his hand and knocked on the stone slab a few times.

Soon, there was another sound of knocking stones inside, which made Wang Jiong's face change even more, and he couldn't help cursing angrily: "Made, this damn Xie Leiting, actually won't let us in."

As soon as I heard it, I immediately asked him what was going on.

He smiled apologetically at me, and said, "Then Xie Leiting thinks this is our eighth private matter, and it's inappropriate for outsiders to join in, so he refuses to open the stone gate for us."

Hearing this, I was also drunk, and was about to say that I was the person in the Eighth Office. When I saw the three brothers of the Xie family, I swallowed the words that came to my lips, guessing who these three were.

After listening to Wang Jiong's words, Mrs. Xie smiled, and Xie Yinshan said: "Brother Wang, why don't we three brothers leave first."

Wang Jiong smiled awkwardly, and said with an apologetic smile, "You three, give me 3 minutes."

After speaking, his face darkened, and he raised his hand again and knocked on the stone slab a few times.

This time, he hit the slate very hard, and the slate made dull sounds.

To my surprise, after Wang Jiong knocked on the stone slab, there was no sound. After a full two minutes, the stone slab moved slowly, and then the whole stone slab was slowly pulled up.

Seeing this, I listened carefully, and I heard a slight crisp sound, the sound made by the gears made of wood turning, that is to say, the reason why the stone slab was pulled up was not due to manpower, but some kind of institution.

This made me breathless. I stared at the stone slab for a long time, but didn't see anything, until Wang Jiong pulled me and said, "Brother Luo, let's go in!"

I let out a groan, and stepped up and walked inside, but my eyes kept staring at the top of the stone slab.

After we entered the cave, the stone slab was slowly lowered, blocking the entire cave extremely tightly, and it is not an exaggeration to describe it as airtight.

As the stone slab was closed, the whole cave felt a bit warmer. I took this opportunity to look at the location of the entrance. It is not big, about two meters wide. If it is long, there is no end in sight, and it winds towards the ground. Extending over, there are several tools placed obliquely around the entrance, all of which are hoes and iron catalpas used for digging caves.

What surprised me was that I didn't see anyone in this cave. I had to know that when I was outside, I could clearly hear someone knocking on the stone slab.

What about people?

When I asked this doubt, Wang Jiong explained to me that the person from the Eighth Office was in the core of the entire mausoleum, that is, the control room of the mechanism, and the sound of knocking on the stone slab earlier came from Sent by the agency control room.

Hearing these words, my heart trembled wildly. With the magic of the Mohist mechanism, I definitely have this ability.

At the moment, I couldn't help but become a bit short of breath, I just wanted to see the person who set up the mechanism sooner, and the three Xie brothers reacted similarly to me, they were all very excited, especially Xie Jinshan who had never spoken, A look of respect flashed across his face.

Wang Jiong took our reaction into his eyes and led us forward. He introduced the mausoleum to us as he walked.

At first, I listened with gusto, but gradually I felt something was wrong, but I couldn't tell exactly what was wrong.
