Mountain and Sea Treasures

Chapter 328 The Tower Built Underground
Lao Han and the others stayed where they were, without taking any action for a long time. They just shrank for a day and a night, and they were enjoying themselves, as if they were waiting for someone!
Miss Qiu suspects that they are waiting for the British. This place is already deep in the mountains. If there is a nine-story pagoda, it should appear soon, so Lao Han is waiting for the employer to show up.

"No, unless they already know the location of the Nine-Stories Pagoda, what would the British do?" Lao Yan disagreed.

His thoughts are actually quite normal. Indeed, even if we know in our hearts that the location of the Nine-Story Pagoda is approaching, as long as the Nine-Story Pagoda does not come out, we cannot be sure how long it will take to find it.There are many things in our line that the tomb is right under our feet but we can't find it, and we don't walk along the road, there are signs everywhere.

Miss Qiu said: "Didn't the fourth girl just say that they have clues to the Nine-story Pagoda."

"We have it too." The fourth girl said suddenly.

We immediately looked at him, and even Lao Yan was excited: "Fourth, fourth girl, is what you said true?"

"I told Chang'an, but he didn't seem to realize it." The fourth girl looked at me, and I said ah, and asked him if that's what he said?

The fourth girl turned back to stare at Lao Han and the others, and after a long while, she said grace, saying that he thought I could understand it, but he didn't expect that I didn't seem to take this sentence seriously.

I am a little embarrassed, should I tell him that I have taken this sentence seriously, but I really don't know what it means?

"Nine-storey pagoda, hell, Lao Yan, can't you think of anything?" The fourth girl said lightly without turning her eyes back.

Before Lao Yan could speak, I slapped my head suddenly: "Could it be that the nine-story pagoda is underground?"

It's not much of a find, since most of what we're looking for is underground.But the nine-story pagoda is different. The nine-story pagoda refers to the Buddhist pagoda. When it comes to the pagoda, everyone knows that it must be built high. Hell, then... it must be underground.

"Chang'an, why are you so excited? Isn't it normal to be underground?" Sure enough, Miss Qiu didn't understand why I was so excited.

But I even changed my tone of voice: "No, it's different. Originally, we thought it was underground because after thousands of years, even if there is such a tower, it may be buried deep in the ground, but what if it was underground from the beginning?"

Miss Qiu said that she didn't quite understand, even if it was buried underground at the beginning, it was just buried a little deeper.

"Sister Qiu, that's not the case. If the Nine-story Pagoda is a pagoda buried underground, then traces must be visible on the surface." I said excitedly.

But my remarks did not get approval. They all felt that even if they could see the traces, they might have disappeared after the wind and the sun.But I don’t agree with it. I’ve seen it in "Star Official Secrets" that many traces cannot be erased. For example, some large tombs must be based on feng shui and stars, and the foundation of the tower also needs to be laid at the beginning of its establishment. , especially for towers buried deep in the ground, the requirements for the foundation are higher.

"First of all, the nine-story pagoda literally has at least nine floors, you don't deny this, right?" I gestured.

Seeing that they all nodded, I continued: "But don't forget, this is in the south where there is a lot of rain, or in the woods, not to mention the nine-story tower, just dig five or six meters down, maybe it will be fine." There is already groundwater."

"You mean, the nine-story pagoda must be in a place without water?" Lao Yan asked.

I shook my head: "I'm not sure about this, but in any case, there must have been no water when they were built, at least they must have waterproof measures, and the traces left by such measures are not so easy to remove."

"Good boy!" Lao Yan patted my shoulder.

I smiled embarrassedly and said that I was just following the script, and the actual operation is still a bit difficult.

I talked for a long time, but the fourth girl didn't say anything. After I finished talking, and even Lao Yan and the others were persuaded by me, he lightly denied my opinion.

"Is there something wrong with what I said?" I was a little surprised. I have a high degree of trust in "Star Official Secrets", not only because it was left by my ancestors, but also because I did rely on it to save my life in many times of practice. Killed.And after thinking about it, I also found that as long as I understand this book completely, I can easily find the hidden tomb according to the stars in the sky.

"You are right."

"Then why..."

"It has nothing to do with these." The fourth girl shook her head: "If the nine-storey pagoda followed the rules, how could it have been buried underground for so many years?"

I was immediately speechless, what he meant was that my judgment was correct, but the Nine-story Pagoda violated this rule?
The fourth girl seemed to see that I was a little unhappy, so she suddenly smiled. He pointed to the old man outside and said: "I know this person. In comparison, his method of robbing graves is not ordinary! Even Lao Yan can't compare, if the rules were so simple, he would have taken Jindizang away long ago, and he would never have waited here."

"Is he better than Lao Yan?" I looked at the old man wearing a turban, and I really couldn't see any difference in him.

Lao Yan wiped his face: "Ashamed, although I think I will never lose against him, but when it comes to the method of tomb robbery, I really can't compare with him, they are not taboo."

I could hear the disdain in Lao Yan's words, and I didn't seem to think it was a big deal that Lao Han surpassed him in the way of tomb robbery.

The fourth girl persuaded lightly: "Old Yan, you don't have to compare with him! What you are good at is not tomb robbery. Although you were attracted by your master because of tomb robbery, what you are better at is leadership."

As soon as I heard the fourth girl's tone, I felt awkward, although I knew in my heart that the fourth girl's real age must not be as young as she appeared on the surface.But seeing a man with a 27 or 50-year-old face talking to a man in his [-]s in an elder tone, I believe it is difficult for anyone not to feel awkward.

"Miss Si, what you said is to comfort me. I, Lao Yan, am not someone who can't afford to lose, but I just don't like the locusts crossing the border of the tomb robbers in the north! The ancient tombs destroyed by them over the years are more than one star and a half. , Originally, this old fool was quite safe, but he never thought that he would collude with foreigners, as the saying goes, there is a way to steal, he is forgetting his roots." Lao Yan scolded.

It turned out to be the case.

I took a look at Lao Yan, presumably he looked down on Lao Han because he didn't have a trace of national feelings, right?
Anyone with a little patriotism will not be able to do the act of surrendering the national treasure to foreigners.

The fourth girl said indifferently: "Everyone has their own way of life..."

After hearing this, I felt that my previous thinking was not wrong. Although the fourth girl helped 701, in fact, his views on many things were not too strong, which made me wonder why he would help us.

"They moved." Just as I was about to say something, the fourth girl suddenly raised her hand.When I looked out, I saw that the 'Shaanxi Gang' who had been resting just now had already arranged all kinds of equipment and walked deeper.

"Follow!" Lao Yan ordered immediately.

The fourth girl made a gesture telling us not to move, then pressed her index finger on her lips, and opened her mouth: "There is a change."

We held our breath and didn't dare to move, and there was no movement for about 5 minutes.Seeing that Lao Han and the others had disappeared, Lao Yan became anxious: "Miss Si, if we don't follow up, this hard-won clue will be broken again."

"Don't talk." The fourth girl didn't mean to explain anything.

Lao Yan was running around in a hurry, but was stopped by Miss Si's eyes, and after waiting for about three or four minutes, just when Lao Yan was about to follow Miss Si's order, a figure appeared in sight!
