Chapter 130 Six A Friend in Distress

In Liu Jing's ear room, another old man over [-] years old was imprisoned. Because the old man spoke Min dialect in southern Xinjiang. It was difficult for anyone in the Hanling to understand, so the old man had always been reticent.Liu Jing stayed in Jianning Mansion for nine years, and he could barely understand the southern Fujian dialect.The two of them had a quiet conversation in private, that was amazing, that unattractive old man turned out to be the hall master of the Shenji Hall in the middle of the Chuanshu Guanzhong area in the early years.Shenjitang originated from the Spring and Autumn Mohist School. Mozi collected skilled craftsmen from all over the world to build the city. When Qin Shihuang unified the world, he forced these people to build imperial tombs for him, and finally slaughtered them all.In the Western Han Dynasty, most of the craftsmen who were proficient in secret tunnels turned to other industries, ranging from locksmiths to stonemasons, and the Shenjitang withered from then on.

The old man's surname is Gong Zai, the sixth among his brothers and sisters, and everyone who knows him calls him the sixth master.Liu Ye, like Liu Jing, was forcibly pulled by Liu Ba's men to serve as the tomb passage mechanism in the Han Mausoleum.He was taken out by the soldiers in shackles every day, and at night he was taken back to the prison cage in the ear room and then unloaded for him.Master Liu's ability is really too great, he is like walking on the cliffs, he is omnipotent with swords, spears, swords and halberds, even a person with such a good ability was arrested.

After a long time, the two of them talked about everything. Liu Jing was guarded and could not go out of the ear room. He listened to what happened in Liu Yejiang's Han Ling every day.Usually, if there is nothing wrong, Liu Jing will ask Liu Ye for advice on some secret agencies. Liu Ye's open-minded nature has also taught Liu Jing a lot of skills in making agencies.The two of them spent more than half a year in the Han Mausoleum, and that night, Liu Ye was sent back to the ear room as usual, but there was a hint of happiness on his face.After the soldiers guarding the ear room began to doze off in the middle of the night, Liu Ye said softly to Liu Jing: "Today, the main tomb was flooded with water. The stonemason who opened the mountain accidentally dug an underground water channel. I saw the water channel gushing with my own eyes. The opening is as wide as a person."

"Really! Isn't it possible to use this underground waterway to escape from Hanling?" Both Liu Jing and Liu Ye knew that it would be more difficult to escape than going to heaven when they were in prison, so Liu Jing was also very happy to hear the news.

Master Liu sighed and said, "It's not that easy. Liu Ba is now asking the stonemason to divert water into a lake, and plant some lotus roots in the lake. Just now, I was asked to install mechanisms in the underground waterway. I thought about it for a while. Fan can only make a fuss about this organization. But I am afraid that people will not be in harmony, and my colleagues will see the flaws."

"That's right, the more people who know about it, the greater the chance of being discovered." Liu Jing's face suddenly darkened a lot.

Liu Ye said: "I have figured out everything here. There are about seven or eight thousand craftsmen imprisoned in the cages in the left and right ear chambers. There are more than [-] stonemasons who broke the ground. They are handcuffed hand and foot and locked in the main tomb. Many of them are starving to death every day. Now you carve the stone every day, the slower the better. Only then can I find a chance to find a way, alas, take a step and see it!"

Liu Jing followed Liu Ye's words and began to carve tourmaline slowly.In this way, another half a year passed, until one day Liu Ye was taken back to the ear room in a daze, and Liu Ye looked at the ground made of yellow sand with blank eyes and said nothing.Liu Jing asked, "Sixth Master, what's wrong with you?"

"Liu Ba, the tortoise egg, a large number of Taihu stones were shipped in today." Liu Ye said weakly.

"Taihu Stone? What happened to the Taihu Stone?" Liu Jing asked in confusion.

"You don't understand, the Taihu stone is used to block the exit of the Hanling. The general construction of the Hanling has been completed, and they want to kill the donkey to unload the mill. Today, more than 20 stonemasons suddenly said that they would send them Going home, the birds are doing their best, and the cunning rabbits are cooking, and it will be our turn soon."

"Ah..." Liu Jing understood that all the construction materials in the Han Mausoleum were brought in by soldiers from the exit through the Yangtze River. Now that the exit has been blocked, the more than 20 craftsmen will never live in this world again. up.

Although Liu Jing repeatedly delayed the time to carve the tourmaline of the Road to Heaven, Liu Ba would not have such patience.Liu Jing was only given the last three months. If the work cannot be completed, let Liu Jing go to Huangquan Road to continue carving.Liu Jing found out from the soldiers that Emperor Xuan of the Han Dynasty had ascended the throne, and Liu Ba was more anxious to be the prince than his father.Liu Ye and Liu Jingyi combined the tourmaline talisman and there was no longer any delay, there was only three months left.The mechanism at the bottom of Jinghu Lake must get rid of him immediately, Liu Ye decided to put all his eggs in one basket and take his own life to gamble his luck...

No one can say clearly about luck, if you say it will come, if you don't come, you will wait no matter how long you wait.The three-month deadline is coming soon, and the work of the craftsmen in the Hanling Mausoleum is coming to an end, and the Hanling Mausoleum will slowly start to arrange organs.On this day, Liu Ye pretended to be calm, and under the supervision of soldiers, he and other fellow craftsmen adjusted the copper net and iron hook in the mirror lake to fall into the stone formation.The copper mesh array is divided into three layers, the bottom layer is full of three-inch long sharp blades.The copper net in the middle is covered with dense layers of iron hook barbs, which can cut into the clothes and hook the flesh if you are not careful.The copper net on the top layer is equipped with ninety-nine 81 gold threads that will not rot for thousands of years. The gold threads are connected to the mechanism at the bottom of the mirror lake. will fall with it.

The organ built by the sixth master himself is the most powerful. The mirror lake is not deep, only as deep as one person. In addition, the lake has been sprinkled with sand and planted with lotus roots. Adding a trap, let alone a person who wants to pass it, is considered a barrier. The fish will also retreat in spite of difficulties.

While adjusting the tension of the copper net, Liu Ye quietly stepped on a sharp blade on the copper net with handcuffs, and secretly hid it in his sleeve.When it was time to go down to the Jinghu Libu mechanism, the soldiers came and drove the craftsmen into the water. Liu Ye followed the craftsmen into the water and cut off the gold threads on the copper net with a sharp knife.As long as the connection between the gold thread on the copper net and the machine bracket is cut off, the formation will be broken, and the sixth master is gesticulating in the mirror lake and swimming around in the mirror lake.The soldiers by the lake and other craftsmen couldn't understand a word Liu Ye said, but the craftsmen all admired Liu Ye's work.The soldiers knew that Liu Ye was good at hands and feet, so they didn't dare to provoke him if they had nothing to do.

In this way, Liu Ye cut off all the golden threads connected with the agency in the mirror lake without anyone noticing, Liu Ye himself did not expect such good luck.It would be a perfect opportunity to escape from the Han Ling now, but Liu Ye remembered that Liu Jing was still locked in the ear room, and Liu Ye returned to the ear room with a long sigh.In the evening, the soldiers distributed dinner to the craftsmen who were detained in the side room. Liu Ye was surprised to find that there was a bowl of meat suddenly today.In Hanling for so long, there are only two meals a day. I eat two solid steamed buns at noon and brown rice in the evening.

Liu Jing was about to eat, but the meat in his hand was beaten to the ground by the sixth master. The sixth master said: "It's useless for me to teach you the art of mechanism. You don't even have such a simple guard. You don't care about that boy Liu Ba. You know, you’ll give us meat? It’s true that the sun has come out from the west!” Liu Ye picked up Liu Jing’s silver chisel for carving tourmaline stones and inserted it into the meat bowl, and the shiny silver chisel turned black.

Liu Jing also learned some ways to use poison under Liu Ye's instruction, and shouted: "It's arsenic!"

"That tortoise Liu Ba is going to kill us. He wants to use poison to slowly put us to death. Once King Guangling dies, our lives will be over. I have broken the mechanism of the underground waterway. Now you are locked up all day long." It’s a big trouble if we can’t get out. Although it’s only a hundred steps away from here to Jinghu Lake, there are heavy soldiers guarding it, and we will be shot into a hornet’s nest before we arrive.” Sixth Master said worriedly.

Liu Jing thought for a while and said: "That's not as good as this. After the tourmaline stone was carved, I asked Liu Ba to put it in the sarcophagus wall by myself. On the way back, you can pass by Jinghu Lake and meet your sixth master then. "

The sixth master was silent for a while and said: "It can only be like this, it is up to man to make things happen, and it is up to God whether he can escape from Hanling..."

In the short three days in the Han Mausoleum, a large number of craftsmen died every day. Except for the craftsmen who placed the tomb organs and the craftsmen who carved the coffins, there were still 3000 to [-] craftsmen left. The craftsmen of the murals all died inexplicably.The tourmaline stone carved by Liu Jing was finally finished, but Liu Jin sternly shouted back when the soldiers came to collect his tourmaline stone.

"Do you dogs know what this is? This is the road to heaven for King Guangling to ascend to heaven and become an immortal. I want to put it in the sarcophagus wall with my own hands. If there is any mistake, can you bear it?" Liu Jing said Well-organized, the soldiers didn't know what to do, and hurriedly reported to Liu Ba.When Liu Ba came, he was also very pleasantly surprised to see this crystal clear tourmaline jade. The tourmaline stone was engraved with troublesome scripture runes, and a curved groove symbolizing the water of the Yellow River separated the tourmaline jade wall from Yin and Yang.Liu Ba didn't understand the meaning of the words on the Road to Heaven, but he knew that if the jade wall and the groove walls on the sarcophagus were not right, it would be due to his lack of supervision.

Liu Ba raised his hand to the soldiers without saying a word, and the soldiers put Liu Jin in shackles and escorted him to King Guangling's coffin chamber.When passing Jinghu, Liu Jing and Liu Ye glanced at each other hastily, and Liu Ye nodded understandingly.Liu Jing tremblingly followed the soldiers up the coffin of King Guangling along the set up shelf, and Liu Ba watched Liu Jin's every move from the side.Liu Jing has the urge to smash the tourmaline stone, but Liu Jing knows that once the road to heaven is destroyed, Liu Ye and all the craftsmen will be beheaded by Liu Ba...

After hesitating again and again, Liu Jing still put the tourmaline stone into the groove wall on the sarcophagus, and it really fit perfectly without any deviation.Liu Ba laughed wildly and kicked Liu Jin off, and walked away with the road to the sky. The soldiers dragged Liu Jin, who fell down from the coffin and was bleeding, out of the coffin...

His hands and feet were locked by the iron shackles that interlocked, which was nothing to Liu Ye, and he fiddled with each other on the shackles.Immediately, he had to release his hands and feet, and when he saw Liu Ba laughing and leaving the Sixth Master of Hanling, he knew the time had come.After a while, Liu Ye saw three or four soldiers coming out dragging Liu Jing's feet.Liu Jing already had only half his life left, Liu Ye let out a loud roar, rubbed his body and pushed away the people in front of him and dodged forward.The shot knocked down the soldiers who were dragging Liu Jing like electricity, and he grabbed Liu Jing's iron shackles and tried hard to break the iron shackles.

"Come on, the craftsmen have rebelled..., the sixth master has rebelled..." The guards in the main tomb shouted, and hundreds of archers came out from all around.The sharp arrow pointed directly at Liu Ye and Liu Jing...
