The thirty-first chapter: Entering the tomb, the first thing I see is the heavenly fire glazed roof.
When everyone returned to the camp, it was already late at night. They chatted for a while and then dispersed to rest.
Fatty's heart was still thinking about the tomb. He was restless and kept tossing and turning." Let's eat first. We'll go to the shack to investigate later!”
"Aiyo, it's finally over. I'm so anxious!”Fatty instantly revived and shouted.
After breakfast, they settled the horses and luggage before bringing their tools and rushing to the shack.
After Hu Bayi's compass was located, Fatty immediately spread his arms and started digging.
"Fatty, be careful. Grave robbing is a technical job. You can't do it forcefully. Many large tombs have anti-theft mechanisms!”Hu Bayi couldn't help but remind him.
"Fatty, don't move. You'd better let Old Hu go down and take a look first in case there's a trap!”Zhang Ziyang's heart skipped a beat. He thought of something and quickly stopped Fatty's recklessness.
"Isn't that what happened? Just dig it up!”Fatty mumbled and climbed up reluctantly.
Hu Bayi carefully went into the pit and gently dug up the soil above. A piece of green glazed tile was revealed. His expression changed and he carefully buried the soil again. He climbed up and let out a sigh of relief.
"What's wrong, Old Hu?" Fatty noticed Hu Bayi's strange behavior.
"Beneath this is the Heavenly Treasure Dragon Fire Glazed Top. Fortunately, Dao Master reminded us. Otherwise, if we had dug through it, we would have all been stuck here!”
Hu Bayi still had some lingering fear in his heart. He looked at Zhang Ziyang with eyes full of amazement. He even suspected that Zhang Ziyang knew Ziwei algebra. Otherwise, how could he have foreseen the danger down there?
It turned out that this Heavenly Treasure Dragon Fire Glazed Top was an anti-theft technique commonly used by nobles in ancient times. There were bags of Western Region Fire Dragon Oil stored between the two glazed tiles. This kind of Western Region Fire Dragon Oil would spontaneously combust when it came into contact with air. It was extremely terrifying. If one was not careful, they would definitely end up without even a corpse.
"Damn it, this is too sinister. Isn't this cheating your Lord Fatty?”Fatty shouted angrily.
"Since this road is blocked, I think the tomb robbers must have dug a side hole elsewhere. Let's look for it!”Zhang Ziyang pondered for a moment before saying.
The few of them split up and searched. As expected, not long after, they found a narrow bandit hole in a low-lying place.
"Good heavens, Dao Master, you're simply divine!”Fatty grinned.
"Don't be so talkative. Go and bring all your weapons. Let's go down and take a look!”Hu Bayi kicked Fatty and reminded him.
Fatty was now full of enthusiasm. He ran all the way and brought all the tools over. Hu Bayi checked again and again to make sure that he didn't miss anything before he started to go down the hole.
Fatty was the most anxious. He took the lead and slid down the rope without waiting for Hu Bayi's reminder. Hu Bayi only had time to curse before he quickly followed him down to prevent Fatty from triggering any traps. Yingzi was next. Although this little girl was a little afraid, she insisted on following them. In the end, Zhang Ziyang took the rear.
When Zhang Ziyang came down, he saw Hu Bayi scolding Fatty.""I told you, entering the tomb is not a child's play. What if you come down so recklessly and trigger the mechanism? Do you want everyone to be buried with you?”
"Isn't it fine?" Fatty mumbled. In this world, only Hu Bayi's words had any effect on Fatty.
"Old Hu, this is just a tomb passage. With the tomb robbers ahead scouting the way, there shouldn't be any traps.”
"That's right. Look, even Dao Master said that there's no mechanism. Why can't I come down?”Hearing Zhang Ziyang's words, Fatty had another excuse.
"But Fatty, it's hard to say if you enter. So for everyone's safety, you'd better restrain yourself. I feel that there are many interesting things inside!”Zhang Ziyang changed the topic and said faintly.
"Alright, Dao Master, you scared me. Now that I've heard your story, I'm full of nagging!”
The few of them did not say anything else. They held their flashlights and walked forward. Soon, they found a half-closed stone door at the end of the passage. It was obvious that it had been opened by someone.
"Wait a minute!" Hu Bayi was about to push open the stone door when Zhang Ziyang shouted at them.
"Old Hu, Fatty, are you guys wearing the gold talismans?”
Under Yingzi's puzzled gaze, Fatty took out the golden talisman given by Big Golden Tooth from his collar and shook it, saying," Old Hu and I brought it with us.”
"Brother Fatty, what is this? It looks like a beast's tooth!”Yingzi had lived in the mountains and was very familiar with the teeth of wild beasts.
"This is a golden talisman, it's used to ward off evil spirits!" Zhang Ziyang explained. At the same time, he took off the golden talisman on his neck and put it on Yingzi. Although this thing could ward off evil spirits, Zhang Ziyang could not use it. He just wore it for novelty. He put it on Yingzi now so that she could protect her life later.
"Big Brother Zhang, I don't want it. You should take it!”Yingzi touched the golden talisman on her chest. She was extremely touched, but she still had to take it off and return it to Zhang Ziyang.
"This is a gift from Big Brother Zhang. Wear it. Besides, I personally made this Golden Touch Talisman. You have to have confidence in me!”Zhang Ziyang said to Yingzi.
"That's right, my Dao grandpa is someone with true ability!”Fatty couldn't help but give him a thumbs up.
"Yingzi, just wear it. With Priest Zhang's ability, nothing here can hurt him!”Hu Bayi said.
The golden talismans given by Big Golden Tooth were not fake. However, the spiritual energy on them was almost exhausted. After experiencing the spiritual energy enhancement and the outline of the array by Zhang Ziyang, the power of these three golden talismans could be said to have recovered to the level of a magic tool.
"After my enhancement, this Golden Touch Talisman can be considered a magic tool. It's just that it will be very troublesome to replenish the consumed spiritual power in the future. However, in this age of chaos, it should not be a problem to protect your safety.”Zhang Ziyang pushed open the stone door and walked in.
"Magic tool? This thing is a magic tool?" Fatty exclaimed.
"What's wrong, Fatty? Is the magic tool very special?" Hu Bayi didn't know what was different about the so-called magic tools.
"Old Hu, you don't know this. The so-called magic tools are all blessed by those accomplished monks and Taoist masters. They can resist some unclean things.”Fatty had lived in Beijing for quite some time, so he naturally knew about the magic tools.
"Really?" Hu Bayi still didn't believe it. It wasn't that he didn't believe it was a magic tool, but that it could resist the dumplings.
Yingzi's eyes sparkled when she heard this. No one knew what she was thinking.
After entering the stone door, they arrived at the main tomb. The space here was not big, only about 30 square meters. In the middle was a spacious stone platform. There were many murals carved on the walls of the tomb. Although thousands of years had passed, the murals were still well-preserved. They were the image and deeds of a general. At first glance, it gave Yingzi a fright.
After looking through the main chamber, they didn't find anything. They entered the chamber at the back together. This was a chamber where sacrificial items were placed. There was a row of weapon racks on the side, and a huge spiked club in the center was particularly eye-catching.
"Clang!" A loud sound shocked everyone. It turned out that a shield had rolled down, and the fatty beside him was holding a weapon in embarrassment.
"Fatty, don't you move!" Hu Bayi was also shocked and quickly shouted.
"I didn't move. It fell on its own!”Fatty quibbled. Hu Bayi glared at Fatty but didn't say anything. Fatty was like this.
"Sigh, this general is really poor. Why doesn't he have anything? He's even poorer than Lord Fatty!”The fatty looked around and did not find anything that caught his eye. He smacked his lips and said in disdain.
"There should be a mechanism here. Otherwise, it's impossible that there isn't even a coffin. Let's return to the main tomb first!”Zhang Ziyang was proficient in the art of traps, so he naturally knew the profoundness of this. He immediately led the few of them back to the front.
"Look, doesn't this stone platform look like a place for coffins?”Hearing Zhang Ziyang's words, Hu Bayi suddenly clapped his hands and said,""That's right, they must have used a mechanism to hide the coffin!”
"Then hurry up and look for it. If we find it, we'll be rich!”Fatty had always been thinking about the treasure in the coffin. The few of them split up to search.
"Kakakaka!" Suddenly, the sound of a mechanism being activated rang out. It turned out that Fatty had unintentionally triggered the mechanism.
"All of you, get down!" Zhang Ziyang shouted and pulled Yingzi, who had been following beside him.
"Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!" In the next moment, sharp arrows shot out from all directions, almost covering the entire tomb. The sound of arrows piercing through the air was continuous, and it took a long time for them to stop.
Zhang Ziyang's entire body was enveloped in a thick golden light. A golden light lay horizontally. The arrows that were flying in the sky seemed to have been paused. In a moment, there was no movement.
The few of them looked at Zhang Ziyang, who was emitting golden light all over his body, and did not come back to their senses for a long time.
"Yingzi, are you alright?" Zhang Ziyang said.
"I'm fine, Big Brother Zhang!" Yingzi looked at Zhang Ziyang and said in a daze.
"Fatty, are you trying to kill us? How many times have I told you not to touch anything? Why can't you remember? We were almost pierced by thousands of arrows!”Hu Bayi knew Zhang Ziyang well and quickly regained his senses. He looked at Wang Kaixuan and said,"
At this moment, Hu Bayi was really angry. If this continued, he would be killed by Fatty sooner or later.
Fatty quickly smiled apologetically." Old Hu, I was wrong. I promise there won't be a next time!"”
"Coo coo…"
The sound of machinery rang out again. Accompanied by the sound of chains sliding, the stone platform in the middle of the tomb slowly flipped over, and a huge stone coffin appeared on the stone platform.
