Very soon, the people were in place and divided into seven groups.
Everyone was covered with quicklime powder and tied with ropes. One person held a metal shield in front of them to open up a path, while the other held a gun and stood guard behind them.
Outside the cave, there were four or five people pulling the ropes tied to their bodies.
Once they encountered danger and sent out a distress signal, these people would pull them back together.
Of course, before the seven groups entered, they had to let the pigeon go in and scout the way. This was also necessary.
Soon, all seven pigeons flew back safely.
The seven teams took a deep breath and prepared themselves for a one-way trip. They began to walk inside.
The people outside were also looking at them nervously.
Time ticked by.
About ten minutes later, a group of people returned from the cave.
Everyone went up and asked. The two men said that after walking a few hundred meters, they encountered a stone door that sealed the cave.
Everyone was stunned and somewhat confused.
Then, the other groups came out of the cave one after another.
The information he brought back was exactly the same. All the caves were sealed by a thick stone door.
This result was completely unexpected.
How could there be seven dead ends?
However, it could not be considered a dead end because there was still a stone door. After the stone door, it should lead to somewhere.
Most stone doors were used to seal off tombs and tomb passages. Could it be that these seven caves led to seven different tombs?
Seeing this situation, Wu Hao followed Chen Yulou and Hugu Whistle into a random cave. As they walked forward, they indeed saw that stone door.
That stone door was exactly the same as the one they had blown up in the back hall.
It was made of a whole piece of granite. He did not know how thick it was, but it must be very thick.
Chen Yulou called Kun Lun, who was born with divine strength, but he was unable to push the stone door open.
It seemed that it couldn't be opened without explosives.
The three of them checked the other caves randomly. The situation in the caves was exactly the same.
Wu Hao, Chen Yulou, and Hugu Whistle retreated from the cave and began to exchange opinions.
Chen Yulou said," Brother Wu's analysis might be right. Eight Gates of Dun Jia. There are a total of eight Gates. They are all here."
He just didn't know what was behind the eight doors.”
"That Qimen Dunjia is mostly used for marching and setting up formations. Isn't it a little too much to use it here?"
Perhaps these eight caves were just eight ordinary caves that could connect to the outside world.
The ancients used stone doors to block the underground palace to prevent outsiders from entering.”
"Of course, there is such a possibility. The terrain here was completely different from ordinary tombs, so it was not surprising for abnormal tombs to appear.
However, it didn't matter whether it was Qimen Dunjia or not. The most important thing now was to find the entrance to the underground palace!
Do the two brothers think that there might be an entrance to the underground palace hidden behind these seven stone doors?”
"That's unlikely." Wu Hao shook his head.”
Chen Yulou and Hugu Whistle were startled and asked in unison,""How do you know?"
"Didn't you notice?" Wu Hao asked. These caves all went up.
" We are now at the altar. Under normal circumstances, the underground palace is below the altar.
Therefore, the path to the underground palace should be downwards.”
Although Chen Yulou and Hugushao nodded in agreement, it was only a guess.
Although the other possibilities weren't high, they weren't completely impossible.
For example, this Yuan Tomb did not play by the rules. The position of the underground palace was on the same level as the altar or even higher than the altar.
Or, the first half of a cave went up, and the second half started to go down, and so on.
Elder Luo, who was scratching his ears and cheeks anxiously, could not help but say,"Brothers, have you come to a conclusion?
What should he do next? In my opinion, isn't it just seven stone doors?
We can just f * cking blow them all up!”
"Don't be impatient, Marshal Luo," said Chen Yulou with a smile. If necessary, they could use explosives to blow up the stone door.
However, explosives could not be used indiscriminately. Before he understood the situation, blindly blasting the stone door would be a waste of effort, and it would invite unknown danger. It was better to be patient.”
At this moment, Hong Gu, Hua Ling, and the little foreigner shouted in unison,"Boss/Senior Brother, come and look at this!”
They looked in the direction of the voice and saw Hong Nu, Hua Ling, and Xiao Yang, who had nothing to do just now. They had climbed up the altar and looked around. At this moment, they were pointing at the altar that was more than one meter tall and waving at them.
The few of them rushed over and saw that the white altar that was more than one meter tall was carved out of a whole piece of white marble.
It was engraved with a deep circular pattern that extended from the top to the bottom.
Moreover, it was obvious that there were black stains in the circular grooves.
Chen Yulou used his fingernails to pick up a little bit of it and put it in front of his nose to smell it. He frowned and said,
"This is formed by blood. It seemed that this altar was also a place for blood sacrifices.”
Blood sacrifice, as the name implied, required the blood of humans or animals as a sacrifice.
This was very common in ancient times.
When the ancients performed sacrificial rites, it was not uncommon to use living people and livestock as sacrifices, let alone blood.
"Boss, I'm not asking you to look at this. Look at the bottom of the altar!"”
Hearing this, Chen Yulou, Hugushao, Wu Hao, and Elder Luo all looked at the bottom of the altar.
After taking a closer look, he immediately noticed something amiss!
The bottom of the altar wasn't the same as the top. There were some complicated gaps.
However, these gaps were very small. If one did not look carefully, it was really difficult to see them.
The few of them looked at each other and already knew what was going on.
There was a very complicated mechanism hidden under the altar!
