Tang Dynasty detective

Chapter 65
After hesitating for a moment, Li Canghai decided to go to the tomb to find out.

When Di Qing heard that he was going to the tomb, she wanted to go with her, but Li Canghai couldn't resist her, so she had to agree to let her accompany him, but he had to follow his arrangement in everything.

"The two benefactors, the tomb of Duke Di was stolen, and the monk has an unshirkable responsibility, so let the monk accompany the two of you down together." Hui Guang whispered.

Li Canghai looked at him in surprise, and pondered: "Then Master Lao is here."

The three of them made some preparations and climbed in from the robber's hole.

This robbery hole is like a deep well, it is drilled straight down, about seven or eight feet deep.

After landing, it was discovered that this is an ear chamber, and next to the ear chamber is the main tomb.

There is a tomb passage between the ear chamber and the main tomb chamber. There are countless patterns carved on the stone walls along the way, which seem to be the life stories of Di Renjie.

There was thick dust on the corridor of the ear room, and a line of footprints on the dust went straight to the main tomb, and the three of them followed the footprints and chased after them.

There are long lights on both sides of the main tomb, and the door is opened, with obvious traces of human push.

Judging from the footprints on the ground and the opening of the door, Li Canghai preliminarily concluded that there were dozens of people on the other side!
Li Canghai was secretly startled, so many people came, could it be that he really wanted to evacuate the treasure?

There is a set of coffins in the main tomb. Behind the coffin is a huge stone wall with mountains, rivers, plants, sun, moon and stars engraved on the stone wall.

Out of respect, several people bowed down to the coffin and bowed a few times, and then walked towards the stone wall behind the coffin.

A stone door was opened on the stone wall. Li Canghai took a closer look and found that the stone door was controlled by a mechanism. Looking at the shape of the mechanism on the stone wall, it seemed that it was opened by a jade tortoise button.

Li Canghai hesitated for a while and wanted to go into the Shimen, but Huiguang walked in first. At this moment, a violent explosion suddenly came from the Shimen.

With a bang, countless boulders fell one after another, and buried the Shimen in an instant.

Li Canghai yelled that it was not good, and hurriedly pulled Di Qing, rolled on the spot and avoided the boulder directly, only to avoid the fate of being directly crushed to death.

The entire tomb trembled violently, as if an earthquake had occurred, and countless broken stones and blue bricks fell down one after another.

"The tomb is about to collapse, get out of here quickly!" Li Canghai pulled Di Qing, and quickly ran towards the ear chamber.

"Master! The master is still inside!" Di Qing said anxiously.

While speaking, there was a roar, and the roof beam on the main tomb suddenly collapsed.

Li Canghai gritted his teeth and shouted: "I can't care about that much anymore, let's leave first!"

The violent explosion caused the entire tomb to collapse on a large scale. Li Canghai dragged Di Qing to run wildly all the way, and finally climbed out before the tomb completely collapsed.

On the ground, Liang Xiu and Di Ying had been waiting anxiously for a long time, when suddenly a billow of smoke and dust came out from the entrance of the cave, and they were startled.

Immediately afterwards, Li Canghai and Di Qing crawled out in disgrace.

"Little sister, what happened?" Di Ying asked anxiously.

Di Qing coughed a few times, and said with a hint of tears: "Second brother... the ancestor's tomb has collapsed!"

Hearing this, Di Ying was stunned for a moment, and after a while he let out a wail, kneeling in front of the grave and crying loudly.

Liang Xiu hurriedly stepped forward and asked, "Why are you two alone? Didn't Master Huiguang go to the grave with you? Why didn't he come out?"

Li Canghai waved his sleeves, coughed out a few mouthfuls of dusty saliva, and said in a deep voice, "Master Huiguang is still below."

When the monks heard this, they became anxious and wanted to go down to rescue Huiguang.

Li Canghai stopped them and said, "The tomb has collapsed and there is no way to enter. Masters, please be safe. I think Master Huiguang will be safe."

"Cang Hai, how are you sure that nothing will happen to Master Huiguang? What's going on here? Why did the tomb suddenly collapse?" Liang Xiu was a little worried, but at the same time he asked very puzzled.

Li Canghai frowned and said: "Master Huiguang entered a stone gate. There seems to be a secret passage behind the stone gate. I think with Master Huiguang's ability, he will be able to escape. As for the collapse of the tomb, I don't know what happened. Let's go." As soon as I found the stone door in the main tomb, I heard a sudden explosion from the ground, and then the whole tomb began to collapse."

"It's unreasonable. These thieves are really lawless. They even dared to steal Di Gong's tomb. I will never let them go lightly!" Liang Xiu's face was full of anger, he stomped his feet fiercely, and said angrily.

Li Canghai looked at the tomb, his expression became extremely solemn, the things inside were much more complicated than what Liang Xiu wanted.

'Ni Lin Xuan Wu' opened the entrance to the treasure, but fortunately two of the sacred objects are in the hands of Xue Xuan, now Li Canghai can only hope that 'Ni Lin Xuan Wu' has not found a complete route to the treasure.

Leaving the yamen guards around to protect the tomb, Li Canghai and others returned to the government office to discuss the follow-up matters.

"According to what you said, this is the work of an organization called 'Ni Lin Xuan Wu'?" After listening to Li Canghai's general account of the incident, Liang Xiu's face became gloomy.

Li Canghai nodded heavily and said: "That's right, judging from what we've learned so far, everything they did was for the 'Martial Emperor's Treasure'."

"Then how much do you know about this organization?" Liang Xiu asked with some doubts as he picked up the teacup from the table and put it down again with a sullen face.

"This organization is extremely mysterious, and I have already told you everything I know. However, to be able to find out the 'Martial Emperor's Treasure', this organization must not be simple." Li Canghai replied after thinking for a while.

Liang Xiu glanced at him, and said disapprovingly: "In my opinion, the so-called 'Nilin Xuanwu' should be a group of tomb robbers. It was only by accident that they found the 'Treasure of the Martial Emperor', which caused so many things to happen."

Li Canghai narrowed his eyes lightly. The way Liang Xiu looked at him just now made him feel a little weird. Although it was only for a moment, he still instinctively noticed something strange.

"My lord, 'Ni Lin Xuan Wu' is definitely not just as simple as tomb robbers." Li Canghai felt strange, how could Liang Xiu think that the other party was just a group of tomb robbers?
Liang Xiu stood up, interrupted Li Canghai's words with his hand, and said solemnly: "Canghai, the most important thing right now is not the 'Nilin Xuanwu', but the 'Treasure of the Martial Emperor'. Once it falls into the hands of thieves, we will be beheaded!"

What Liang Xiu said is not wrong at all, it is good that this treasure does not exist, if it does exist and is stolen, it will definitely alarm the court.At that time, the imperial court will definitely punish him for protecting the treasures, not to mention such a large batch of treasures, if there is a slight difference, his life may be in danger.

Li Canghai has never seen Liang Xiu so anxious. Seeing him sweating profusely and fidgeting, Li Canghai said: "Please rest assured, my lord, I will do my best to track down the whereabouts of the treasure and never let it fall into the hands of thieves." hand."
