Chapter 247: Entering the Mausoleum for the First Time (02)

Everyone felt a little uneasy. They couldn't confirm where it was. Although the woodcutter guessed that this was the legendary imperial tomb, they didn't see anything except the pottery figurines. In the darkness ahead, there was No one knows what, Lin Feng walked in front with a knife, Li Siming didn't understand why this guy didn't use firearms, is a knife really better than a gun?He had seen Lin Feng use a gun when he was playing bats in the cave before, and he was a good hand with it. He couldn't say that he hit every shot, but he basically hit every shot. Why didn't this kid even have a gun on him?It's so weird.

After walking forward for about five or six minutes, they saw the city wall. The huge city wall was hidden in the darkness, and they couldn't see the whole picture under the light of the flashlight. The dark city gate was like a huge animal mouth waiting for them to throw themselves into the net.

Below the city gate tower is a white marble Xumizuo, and above it is a tall city tower. As for the architectural style of the dynasty, only the woodcutter and Lin Feng can tell, but they didn't ask, and others were not interested in asking, after all, they were all laymen. Can't think of these either.

"This damn is not the Netherworld!" Stan couldn't help but tremble when he saw the ghostly city gate. The whole city gate tower is majestic, but it looks very strange in this dark underground. , like the entrance to hell.

"According to the specifications of the tomb, this should be the location of the Vajra Wall, but this place seems to imitate the formal city buildings, so this should be an ordinary city wall. As for whether there are organs..." The woodcutter thought for a while and shook his head. , "I can't say yet, but it's definitely not that simple."

After they got close to the city gate, they found that there was a huge colorful bird-like animal carved on the gate. A hole had been blasted on one side of the gate, and the traces were obvious. What they heard about the explosion before should have come from here.

"Grandma's, such a good white marble gate was blown up by him?" Guo Zhongxiao said regretfully.

"What's the purpose of carving a bird on it?" Stan asked. "The carving is so beautiful. It's a pity that a piece of it was blown up."

"Don't talk nonsense if you don't understand, it's Suzaku." The woodcutter snorted coldly.

"Aren't they all vermilion lacquered gates? Why is the gate here black, and there is a vermilion bird carved on it?" Stan felt strange.

"Red represents blood. Have you ever seen red used in cemeteries?" Zhao Chenggong said that he didn't know why, but he was thinking of talking nonsense here.

"Then what does the Suzaku above mean?" Stan half understood.

"This is the Suzaku Gate, which means the gate of the city in the south. Suzaku is a divine beast that takes the dead to heaven, so this gate means that the dead can directly ascend to heaven when they step out of the gate and enter the mausoleum." Lin Feng cautiously poked his head into the gate. The hole in the cost, "The door body has been completely destroyed, and the door shaft is sealed by molten iron. This door has no intention of opening it since it was closed."

"Can you go in?" Guo Zhongxiao felt uncomfortable looking at the gate.

"Of course you have to go in. If you want to find those tomb robbers, you have to go in." The woodcutter said, "Although we are not a treasure guard team, we can't turn a blind eye to this kind of thing. Such a big imperial tomb can't be left to them. Don't forget that we are all state officials, and we have to do some personnel work with our salaries." The woodcutter said something serious, and Shi Dan and the others didn't take it seriously, but Li Siming and Si Xuanyi felt ashamed in their hearts.

"Follow me, don't move anything." Lin Feng had already got into the blasted hole while speaking.

After entering, they found that it was not the street-style building they imagined, but a whole pavilion style, at least as far as they could see, it was all this kind of huge building complex connected as one. It is a large square. Behind the square is a group of pavilions and pavilions. The area is huge and magnificent. Although it is not comparable to the Forbidden City, the architectural momentum does not lose the royal style, but this place does not look like that. ... Si Xuanyi thought for a long time and didn't know how to describe it. It can probably be called a huge ghost town.

There is a huge Suzaku hanging on the screen wall on one side of the square. It is lifelike, as if it can fly directly into the sky at any time. Near the building on the inner side is a row of huge colonnades, and the deep corridor leads to nowhere.

"Is this the parade ground or the drill ground?" Stan asked, looking at the square in the middle.

"The parade ground and the training ground should be the same place, right?" Guo Zhongxiao felt that he was asking the wrong question.

"Will there be a parade ground and a drill ground in the palace? Can the emperor still sleep?" The woodcutter couldn't listen anymore.

"What's that for?" Stan scratched his head and asked a little embarrassed.

"Who knows?" The woodcutter shook his head, "It's really strange that the repairs in this place were not in Shang and Zhou, and in Qin and Han."

"Master, this is impossible!" Even Zhao Chenggong, a layman, felt that there was something wrong with the woodcutter's words.

"I also don't think it's possible, but he~damn is a real existence. You can see that the base of this wall is clearly from the Shang and Zhou dynasties, but the construction method of this wall is the style of the Warring States Period. The overall building is similar to During the Eastern Han Dynasty, I really can't figure out where in this broken place I have seen the architectural styles of so many dynasties integrated, no matter whether this is an imperial mausoleum or not, it is impossible for this to happen." Speaking of which, the woodcutter shook his head again. Puzzled, he really didn't have a clue.

"What's the use of researching these things, it's better to find those tomb robbers and find out how to get out." Guo Zhongxiao was confused by the woodcutter's words, and lost interest in figuring out these reasons for a while.In the end, I returned to the topic of how to leave this ghost place.

"They went into the stone corridor." Lin Feng came out from the stone corridor on one side, and he had already gone in to explore the way.

"What's inside?" The woodcutter woke up from these messy mysteries.

"It's very strange. It doesn't look like a regular building. The walls are all carved out of stone, and the doors and windows are made of yin wood that will not rot for thousands of years. It's just that this kind of wood is extremely rare. If the wooden structures of the doors and windows here are all made of this... ..."

The woodcutter understood what he meant. The shady tree is a strange tree, which is ten thousand times more precious than the golden nanmu and ebony. It is said that this kind of wood only grows in places where the sun gathers cold, and most of them grow in the dark canyons underground. , half grows under the rock, half grows outside the rock, the leaves are black and soft like silk, the fruit is pure black, and the taste is delicious, but it is highly poisonous. It is said that it can be used for alchemy to live forever. It is slow, grows only an inch in 100 years, and is not invaded by a hundred insects. It is a good tree used in the yin house, and it is one of the top ten ancient strange trees that can never be met. According to historical records, it was only in the mountains of Yanbei when the King of Qin was building the Great Wall. When fetching stones, I dug out a few, but I didn't expect there to be here. Who is buried here...
