Chapter 17 The Trigger
I don't know how far the chicken went.Ye Yuetian checked that it was almost done, he retracted the rope, but found that the rope was a bit hard to retract.

I looked at his expression, he frowned, but his expression was not particularly flustered.He continued to draw in the rope little by little, but this time he didn't have the same sense of blockage as before.

Little by little, he brought the rope up, and we saw a fact that surprised us all.

This rope is actually empty!
The chicken was gone!
None of us spoke, the fat man's face turned pale with fright, and his voice trembled a little.

"This is really, really evil. How could such a thing happen?"

The long-faced senior was obviously frightened too. Professor Zhang glanced at the empty rope, coughed twice, and stood up to stabilize the morale of the army.

"Don't talk nonsense, scare yourself and create mental pressure for yourself. This chicken may feel that the rope is tight, and we will find it later when we go in. We have all read Marxist materialism, besides Well, we are here to conduct research, mainly to look at the age of the murals and whether the owner of the tomb is a tomb robber? Don’t be guilty, we are the power of science and the power of socialism.”

"You could hear the rooster crowing from far away just now. I guess there is no harmful gas in it and there is enough oxygen. If we have no problems, let's go down. Maybe we can find this chicken and bring it back for dinner at night."

Professor Zhang had taken a part-time political class in school for a period of time before, and he still had a way of speaking. Everyone nodded, because he was the backbone, so they all thought it was better to listen to him.But in fact, I am not as optimistic as others.

Although these few say they have some experience, what they don't know at all is that there are indeed some things in this world that cannot be speculated with common sense.Otherwise, how can I explain the world I see when I take off my glasses?
There's no way to explain it, not even science.

I'm not so optimistic, I took a peek at Ye Yuetian, I think he should be similar to what I thought, because his expression is also very serious.Ever since that chicken disappeared, he hasn't had a smile on his face.

I didn't know what was going on in his mind, but I saw him walk up to me and Zhao Man with a low voice.

"You guys must be careful later."

I nodded.When I went out this time, I brought a lot of special things, including a lot of charms in the bag, but I hid it in the interlayer and was not seen by others.It's not easy to explain this thing was seen.

Ye Yuetian, I thought of the big bulging bag he was carrying. I'm sure there must be something unusual and special inside.

Professor Zhang went down the robbery hole for the first time, followed by the fat man and the bored man, the three of us girls were in the middle, and Ye Yuetian was at the end.Each of us can only bend down and walk carefully down this robbery hole.

When I first went down, I could smell a very light smell, and it didn't smell particularly like something was rotting away.Anyway, I don't particularly like the taste.

However, the air circulation here is poor, and the bad smell is a matter of course. We all prepared masks, and it is much better to take them out now.

This burglary is very long. I feel that we have been walking for almost five or six minutes. I haven't reached the end yet. I am a little impatient, but I hear the joyful voice of Professor Zhang in front of me.

"Okay, here we are!"

I drilled out with them, and found that the space suddenly expanded many times.My heart was relieved, and I walked a few steps forward. Professor Zhang, who was standing at the front, lit a match, and then I could see everything in front of me clearly.

The space in front of my eyes is still quite large, without that cramped feeling.This tomb is indeed not small.

The location we are at now should not have fully entered the main part of the tomb. This should be a corridor, but it is very, very grand.There are murals all around.

Professor Zhang has long been fascinated and can't wait to see those murals.

The faint light of the matches illuminated the murals indistinctly. I probably glanced at them twice. These murals were not what I imagined. Although the painters were not so exquisite, they were like the comic strips I saw when I was a child. fully expressed.

First of all, the first one is engraved with a man in armor.He was wearing a suit of armor, and it could be seen that his status was very high. Many people surrounded him and listened to him.

The second mural is still of this man, but he seems to have had some dispute with someone, and the third and fourth murals still show him on the battlefield. He is obviously seriously injured and has fallen down.

This is quite normal, I think the process of building the tomb should be the next step, but I heard Zhao Man's low scream, and I looked up and realized something was wrong.

In the fifth mural, the man who had been seriously injured and fell down actually stood up again.

Professor Zhang is still looking at these murals like crazy.He seemed to have thought of something and turned around.I noticed that he was extremely emotional now, and he was so excited that his whole body was shaking.

Then I heard him say: "My guess is correct, this is not a Han cemetery, it is very likely that it is the tomb of Bai Qi, a general of the Qin Dynasty!"

Zhao Man and I looked at each other, but we both found it a bit unbelievable.Because we all know that the tomb of Qin State General Bai Qi is clearly in Shaanxi.In the eastern suburbs of Xianyang City, the two of us will never remember this place wrong.

But seeing Professor Zhang so excited, I couldn't get in the way, and the fat man was the first to question it.

"No, professor, Bai Qi's tomb has been discovered long ago, it's not so far away, I remember it was in Shaanxi! And didn't you keep telling us that it's from the Han cemetery?"

Professor Zhang was obviously so excited that he didn't know what to do. I heard him whisper in a voice that seemed to be trembling with excitement: "You only know one, not the other!"

Following Professor Zhang's narration, we also know why he is so obsessed with this tomb.

That was many years ago, before Professor Zhang was even admitted to university.He is a native of Shaanxi, and he remembers that year very clearly, because it was that year that changed his life.

Everything starts from the year when Baiqi's tomb was discovered.

Professor Zhang seemed to have entered that tomb. He looked at us with a serious tone.He didn't say what it was that made him think this was true.

"I think that is very likely to be a virtual tomb. Bai Qi's murderous intent is too heavy. I don't think his tomb is so close to Xianyang. It's just to appease people's hearts. The real Bai Qi's tomb is very likely. It was built in the so-called barbarian land, guarding one side! I searched for information everywhere, and finally found this possible place."

As he talked, he danced and let us see the mural, and he explained it to us.

"Look here, and here, these are the typical costumes of Qin Dynasty generals, which are unique to that era. I have seen almost all the open terracotta warriors and horses, and I remember what they should look like very clearly!"

He was clearly agitated, but something didn't feel right to me.Professor Zhang has completely fallen into a sense of pride for discovering a great achievement, but I still feel that this mural makes people feel hairy.

What does it mean that someone who has fallen is getting up again?
It is not as simple as imagined!

Professor Zhang grabbed the bag in a hurry. He was in a hurry, probably because he was afraid of damaging the mural. After thinking about it, he imitated the lines on the mural and rubbed the mural completely.

He was so good at drawing that it looked so lifelike.Then I heard him say excitedly in a brisk tone: "There is absolutely no problem now, let's go ahead and see if there is any other evidence ahead."

This is a very long corridor. I walked a few steps forward, and there were actually candles all around. The candles were filled with small bronze vessels, which looked extraordinarily exquisite.

Professor Zhang sighed in admiration, and then kept turning his head to tell us about the characteristics of these bronzes.

The candle has been burning until now, and I don't know what kind of fuel it is used to keep it burning for such a long time.

Ye Yuetian stared at these bronze wares with an indescribably serious expression.The fat man wanted to reach out to touch it, but he yelled don't touch it!But it was too late.

The candle on the bronze ware suddenly emitted a large amount of smoke, and we were all submerged in the sea of ​​smoke in an instant.I don't know what to do, the smoke came out of nowhere, Ye Yuetian's whole expression changed.

I could hear a creaking sound coming from the smoke, but fortunately the fat man reacted quickly, he took a few steps back, he was obviously startled, we could all hear his loud voice.

"What happened!"

Suddenly the candles were extinguished.

Ye Yuetian clenched his teeth tightly, we couldn't see each other's faces at all.In this violent smoke, I heard his voice coming.

"This is the anti-theft mechanism."

The creaking and creaking sounds became more and more obvious, and we could all hear the sound clearly. The sound made people feel hairy, and we didn't know what it was.

Ye Yuetian didn't hesitate at all, he directly lit a match and threw it out, the smoke seemed to have dissipated a bit, with the light of the match he threw out, we could see that there were countless bugs in the black, Climb down the cliffs on both sides.

The creaking sound we heard is actually the sound made by the insect rubbing against the cliff wall!
