Chapter 271 General's Tomb

After resting for a while, Fang Xiaocao felt that he had recovered a lot of his strength. He stood up and stretched his arms and legs. When he was sure that he could continue on his way, he said, "I've rested. Let's continue on our way."

Hearing Fang Xiaocao's words, Tom and the other two immediately stood up. The three of them had already rested well, and didn't even need to rest at all. They were just waiting for Fang Xiaocao.

"Tom, you lead the way."

Fang Xiaocao ordered Tom.

Tom nodded and took the lead.

The hummingbird and the Taotie followed Fang Xiaocao and acted as her guards.

Tom took Fang Xiaocao and the other two and walked nearly three kilometers in the winding cave. Although the road was rugged, fortunately they did not encounter any danger.

"According to the map, we are entering the area where the treasure is located. I guess the so-called treasure area should be the tomb chamber in the cemetery."

Tom put away the terminal and said in a deep voice.

"This treasure map should be drawn based on that ancient tomb. The real treasure is not the burial objects in the ancient tomb, but someone used the main tomb chamber of this ancient tomb as a treasure cave."

Tom said in a deep voice.

"Hearing what you said, I now wonder which tomb robber drew this treasure map."

Taotie raised his eyebrows and said with a smile.

Fang Xiaocao rolled her eyes at Taotie and said nothing serious, Taotie's mind worked quickly.

However, Fang Xiaocao had to admit it.

This time, what Taotie said was right.

After listening to Tom's analysis, Fang Xiaocao also had the same feeling that this treasure map was left by a tomb robber.

The tomb robber who drew the treasure map robbed the ancient tomb here, but encountered an accident and was unable to take the treasure out. Only he escaped and left behind this treasure map.

It is also possible that tomb robbers encountered some trouble outside after robbing this tomb and thought that this ancient tomb was safe and secretive enough, so they transferred all the antique treasures in their collection here.

He was afraid that he would not be able to get out of trouble and come back to get his treasures, so he left behind the treasure map.

But no matter which one it was, Fang Xiaocao felt that the treasure here might not be hers.

The treasure most likely fell into the hands of that mysterious pawnbroker. After all, as Tom said, just looking at the corpses, you can tell that the pawnbroker has been here for a very long time. Since they have transformed the burial pit into a place where they dumped the corpses, there is no reason not to try their luck when they know there is an ancient tomb here.

Going into a mountain of treasures and coming back empty-handed is not the character of those people in the underworld.

"Tom, let's go into the tomb!"

Fang Xiaocao ordered Tom.

"Whether there is treasure or not, since we are here, there is no reason not to go in and take a look."

Fang Xiaocao said with a smile.

Tom nodded: "Yeah!"

"Your Highness, what you said makes sense. I will be dissatisfied if I don't go in and take a look."

"follow me!"

Tom said this and took the lead to walk towards the correct passage marked on the treasure map.

Fang Xiaocao and the other two hurried to catch up.

We are about to reach our destination and I am very excited.

I'm also very nervous!

Everyone is wondering if the treasure is still there.

Fang Xiaocao was fantasizing that if the treasure was still there, she would be rich.

After walking along the cave for a thousand meters, the scenery in front of us changed. The passage originally formed by the natural cave showed many signs of artificial excavation and renovation.

Many blurred murals eroded by time began to appear on the rock walls on both sides.

Although the mural is blurry, it is vaguely discernible that it is trying to show the life story of the tomb owner. Looking at the figures carved on it, Fang Xiaocao guessed that the tomb owner should be an ancient general.

He was very brave and good at fighting during his lifetime. Almost every mural shows the tomb owner galloping on the battlefield. The tomb owner in the murals was the first to fight in every battle. There were many battles against thousands of troops, in which he beheaded the enemies and presented them to the people in power.

When Fang Xiaocao walked along the corridor to the end, the mural also ended.

The last two murals depict the tomb owner's death on the battlefield and his return wrapped in horsehide, as well as scenes of the authorities personally mourning and rewarding him. "Which dynasty was this general from?"

"I will fight for my country all my life until I die."

Fang Xiaocao murmured to himself.

Tom blinked and looked at Taotie.

"Taotie, do you know who this is?"

Hearing this, Taotie chuckled.

"You've got the right man to ask me, old Tom. I know all about history, but I don't know anything about it."

As he said this, Taotie started laughing.

Tom was stunned and didn't react to what Taotie meant.

"He said he didn't understand!"

The hummingbird nearby couldn't bear to watch it anymore and started to explain to Tom.

Tom glared at Taotie speechlessly.

I have an urge to give Taotie two "bang bang" punches.

"Your Highness, do you know who the owner of this tomb is?"

Tom looked at Fang Xiaocao and asked curiously.

Fang Xiaocao shook her head: "I don't know either, but looking at the murals and the costumes carved on them, they should be generals from a certain period of the Tang or Song dynasties."

“Other than that, I can’t tell.”

Tom was a little disappointed when he heard Fang Xiaocao's words.

Tom is still very curious about the history of China.

Fang Xiaocao raised her head and looked at the two stone doors in front of her.

I guessed that this should be the door to the tomb.

"Taotie, Tom, you two try to see if you can push open the tomb door."

Fang Xiaocao instructed Taotie and Tom.

Fang Xiaocao could see that these two heavy tomb doors had not been opened for a long time.

Maybe the treasure inside is still there.

"Yes!"

Hearing Fang Xiaocao's instructions, Taotie and Tom responded at the same time, walked to the tomb door together, put their hands on the dusty stone door, and began to exert force.

As the two of them continued to exert force, the stone door made a "cracking" sound and moved slightly, but it didn't open even a crack.

"Your Highness, this is not possible. I can't push it!"

Tom let out a breath and sighed.

"You two try pushing the door!"

"Hummingbird, go help too!"

Fang Xiaocao took a look and saw the scratches left by the moving stone door on the ground, and said a lot.

Looking at the heaviness of the stone door, I'm afraid that just one door must weigh over a thousand pounds. Pushing both doors together is obviously not very realistic, so it is better to just push one door.

"it is good!"

Tom and the other two responded and gathered in front of a stone door, shouting "one, two, three", and started to work together.

As the three of them continued to exert force, the heavy stone door made a dull rumbling sound and began to move inside little by little.

Seeing this scene, Fang Xiaocao felt happy.

There is a door!

Just push it forward!

Even if you can't push it open in one go, by pushing it a few more times, you will always be able to create a gap for them to pass through.
