Taoism moves mountains

Chapter 186 Things turn out differently?

Jiang Yang and the other two explored the tomb separately and did not dare to light a fire when they found a brazier. The lessons learned from the ever-burning lantern made them more cautious.

And I have to put on a new gas mask, the one I wore before is probably useless.

In front of the bronze buffaloes, there was a square pool two meters wide, which surprised them.

Aren’t tombs generally required to be kept dry? This is beneficial to the preservation of items in the tomb.

Why is there a pool in this tomb?
  Surprising!

However, after they noticed the dried grease under the bronze buffalo, they made a guess: "Unless the items in the tomb were coated with special grease to prevent moisture, they arranged the pool without any scruples." 】

In addition, there were many bronzes and jades scattered under the corner, which made Chen Yuguan's eyes light up. Unlike Jiang Yang and Min Gushao, he was not here mainly for the Muchen Divine Bead, but to help. Yes, I got some gold and jade treasures by the way.

The cultural heritage of the ancient Dian Kingdom is very ancient. This ancient country was originally a tribal alliance country established by the tribes around the Dian Lake. Although the state apparatus already existed, it was not perfect.

At the end of the Warring States Period, the Chu people led troops into Dianchi Lake, conquered this tribal alliance country, and established it based on the feudal ideology of the Central Plains.

As a result, the ancient Dian Kingdom also achieved tremendous development.

Bronze and jade wares that combine the ideas of the Central Plains and the ancient Dian Kingdom have a very splendid culture and are extremely rare in the world.

It can be seen that this ancient Dian Kingdom's underworld weapon is absolutely precious.

Now that he saw so many complete artifacts, Chen Yukuan felt that an indestructible logistics line was about to be realized, and he felt excited and excited.

Just when Chen Yuguan was about to pick up the bronze, Jiang Yang stopped him.

"Wait a minute, don't you think it's too easy for us to enter the main tomb?"

"Is it simple? I don't think it's simple. Along the way, I found the psychedelic array in the mountains, the water lilies in the lake, the man-eating vines in the jungle, the fluorite mechanism bridge in the tomb, the four-elephant puppet array, The extremely poisonous shrine, which level is not extremely dangerous, if you were not here, how could ordinary people come here?" Chen Yuguan shook his head and asked with a smile.

"It is precisely because of this that I feel that the main tomb chamber is even more complicated." Jiang Yang replied seriously.

The previous traps were extremely dangerous and could kill people at every level. This main tomb chamber is definitely not what it seems on the surface.

If they relax their vigilance now, they may suffer a great loss from the coming danger, and they may even be unable to survive it.

"Jiang Yang said it makes sense, we'd better be cautious." Min Gushao nodded, agreeing with Jiang Yang's view.

At this moment, a sound of "chichi" sounded, which startled them and made them all tensed up.

They searched for the sound and shined their flashlights on it. They saw a small purple scorpion crawling out from a crack in the corner of the wall, and then quickly got in again.

"Huh! It turns out it's just a poisonous scorpion!" Russule Liang's tense expression relaxed.

The southwest has steep mountains and lush jungles.

Since ancient times, 50% of the five poisons in the world have gathered here to thrive. It is not surprising that a few poisonous scorpions appear randomly.

All scorpions are poisonous, but the degree of toxicity varies.

The purple venomous scorpion is a very poisonous one, and the toxin is estimated to be moderately poisonous or above.

When a scorpion feeds, it grabs the prey with its tentacles, lifts its hind abdomen (scorpion tail), bends it toward the front of its body, and stings it with its poisonous needle.

The scorpion tail is composed of six sections and is trapezoidal. There is a scallop on the back, which is densely covered with granular protrusions. The muscles outside the venom glands contract, and the venom flows out from the opening of the poison needle.

The venom of most scorpions is enough to kill insects, but is not fatal to humans and only causes severe burning pain.

The purple venomous scorpion with moderate venom is already considered the king among ordinary scorpions!
  "Scorpions like to live in groups and are very quiet. Please be careful. There are probably a lot of poisonous scorpions here." Min Gushao frowned and reminded.

Perhaps being bitten by one poisonous scorpion will not be fatal, but if bitten by thousands of poisonous scorpions, the accumulation of toxins will increase, and even top warriors will be killed on the spot.

Therefore, Jiang Yang felt that his movements should be as light as possible, so as not to provoke the poisonous scorpions living in groups. When Jiang Yang and others saw purple poisonous scorpions in the tomb chamber, the angry-eyed phoenix on the altar at the entrance to the tomb also saw purple poisonous scorpions, and there were quite a few of them, densely packed like thousands of troops. .

Although it was already night at this time, it was a little blind, but that didn't mean it was completely blind.

Not only can it overcome poison and control mirages, it is also the natural enemy of the five poisons.

"Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh!" The angry-eyed phoenix saw the poisonous scorpion climbing onto the altar. It usually flapped its wings and started to cry. After its momentum increased to a high point, it pounced on the poisonous scorpions, pecked them one by one with its sharp claws. Killed by poisonous scorpions and devoured without hesitation.

It’s like eating a delicious meal and feeling satisfied!

It has been hungry for a long time. It would be unreasonable not to eat this delicious food delivered to the door.

The poisonous scorpion seemed to feel the invincibility of the angry-eyed phoenix, and fled in a hurry, retreating far away.

The angry-eyed phoenix finished its meal and did not continue to chase the escaping poisonous scorpions. It crowed a few times and then returned to the altar and continued to squat and wait.

In the main tomb chamber...

Jiang Yang and the others did not dare to open the coffin immediately without fully understanding the inside of the main tomb chamber.

The size of the tomb of a king of an ancient country is definitely not just that. The tomb was built by a Taoist master, and there must be an ear room. How could the king of a country only have these few burial objects?

There really are ear chambers on both sides of the entrance. The direction of the door is the same as the entrance. After they came in, they were attracted by the purple gold coffin and the heavenly decorations, and then they didn't notice the ear chamber passage.

"Go and take a look first." Jiang Yang suggested.

"Together?" Chen Yuguan asked, thinking: "Shouldn't the two chambers attack in two directions and separate their forces?" 】

"Let's take care of each other together." Jiang Yang said cautiously.

So, the five people went to the ear chamber on the left first, walked through a seven-character curved and short corridor, easily opened the stone door, and entered the ear chamber.

What catches the eye are three wooden shelves, on which are placed a dazzling array of jade and gold items.

【every dog ​​has his day! 】

Jiang Yang and the other five people all think so! After several life and death tests, I finally saw the treasure!
  The happiest person was Chen Yuguan. He walked over excitedly and took a closer look.

"Be careful, use a flashlight first to make sure there is no danger before taking action." Jiang Yang reminded again.

Generally, the poisons that survive in tombs are animals that are nocturnal, like the tide and are afraid of dryness, like darkness and are afraid of the stimulation of strong light.

Chen Yuguan and others were asked to use strong flashlights just to alert poisons that might be hidden in the gold and jade treasures, so as not to be attacked by poisons when they picked them up.

Judging from the number of treasures here, there are no less than a hundred pieces, and they are all valuable items. It is not difficult to use them to support the troops.

Jiang Yang saw that there was no information here, so he said, "I want to go to the ear room on the right."

"I'm going too." Min Gushao also wanted to follow. Their main purpose of coming to the tomb of the Dian King was to find information about King Xian, and secondarily the gold and jade treasures.

Before he found out the information about King Xian, he didn't care about these gold and jade treasures.

"Are you leaving now? Do you want to take away these magical weapons first?" Chen Yuguan took a few gold objects without any problem, so he proposed to take all the gold and jade treasures away. After all, Jiang Yang had space to store the magic weapons. , it is easy to take away these underworld weapons.

Seeing Chen Yuguan's impatient expression, Jiang Yang thought about it for a moment and nodded in agreement.

After checking that there were no mechanisms or living objects, Jiang Yang put the gold, jade, treasures and the entire shelf into the storage space.

"Tsk, tsk, tsk, this kind of magic weapon is just for tomb robbers." Chen Yuguan sighed again after seeing Jiang Yang's method.

Isn't that right? Isn't the purpose of tomb robbing just to remove the buried artifacts?

How much food can a person bring in with two arms and one back, and how many artifacts can he bring out?
