2206 Chapter 2214 Desperation 2

Is this the most precious thing?

Wutong was very curious about what was inside, so he grabbed one end of the scroll and wanted to take it out, but found that the scroll was stuck tightly, so he pulled it hard, only heard a click, as if something was pulled inside, and the scroll was finally caught. pulled out.

Indus was also confused, and just about to open the oil-paper bag, he suddenly heard a rumbling sound, coming from the direction of the stone gate behind him, followed by a loud bang, shaking the room, and at the same time, a powerful The air current blew out the two shark oil lamps.

It was pitch black. After a few seconds, Ye Shaoyang came back to his senses. He couldn't see anyone in the dark, so he shouted: "Are you all okay?"

"I'm fine."

"I'm fine."

It was the voices of Wutong and Miaoxin.

Ye Shaoyang lit up the shark oil lamp in his hand, and took a picture of the surrounding figures, only to realize that everyone was there, and soon another shark oil lamp was lit, and the stone room became brighter.

"What happened just now?" Everyone looked at each other in blank dismay.

Miao Xin took a shark oil lamp, walked out of the room, and walked towards the direction where the loud noise came from. When Ye Shaoyang and others chased her out, she was already standing in front of the stone gate, motionless.

"What's wrong?" Indus asked hurriedly.

"The stone gate is closed..." Miao Xin murmured.

Everyone was shocked and rushed over one after another. Sure enough, the stone gate that was opened before was completely closed.

After being stunned for a moment, everyone began to check the previous door lock, and found a shocking fact: the door lock was gone!

The gap they dug out before is still there, but no matter whether you push it out or in, the stone door does not move at all... Ye Shaoyang inserted his hand into the stone groove, and after groping for a long time, he found that the stone door seems to be much thicker than before, but... why is it in the middle? Is there an extra gap?

Soon, Ye Shaoyang thought of something like an electric shock, retracted his hand, looked back at the crowd, and said in a shocked and helpless tone: "There is an extra door!"

"What do you mean?" Mao Xiaofang asked.

"There is an extra door. Behind the previous door, there is another door. This door has no lock and cannot be moved at all..."

Everyone was stunned when they heard this, and went up to check one by one, and it was indeed the same as what Ye Shaoyang said, that is to say, the door that traps them here is not the previous one, but an extra one out of thin air.

After some inspection, everyone found that the stone door inside was likely to have been suspended in the air, controlled by some mechanism, and now it was put down, blocking the only exit of the stone room.

"It may have fallen from above. This is called a hanging door, and it is a relatively rare mechanism in ancient tombs." Miao Xin said, "But this mechanism is also very practical, and it is difficult to open it with external force."

When Lu Xiaoqing heard this, he frowned and said, "We haven't touched any traps, why did the hanging door suddenly come down, and why didn't it come down before?"

Wutong lowered his head, bit his lips and said: "It's because of me... I pulled this scroll just now, and I obviously felt something connected to the scroll. As soon as I exerted force, that thing seemed to break, and then... the stone gate fell down. gone."

Everyone was stunned.

Miao Xin sighed and said: "No wonder, I understand... That scroll is the organ that controls the hanging door, once it is pulled open, the hanging door will fall..."

Everyone was stunned, Lu Xiaoqing said: "Those things are left by the owner of the tomb for his descendants. It is also written on this stone tablet. If this is the case, why do you keep this thing? Are you not afraid to leave it to his descendants?" Killed here too?"

Ye Shaoyang took over the conversation and said: "It's exactly the opposite of what you said... Since the owner of the tomb has left the key to his descendants, it is impossible that there is no other explanation, or it has been specially instructed that in the scroll in the stone trough, One of them cannot be moved, if it is moved, the stone door will fall down, sealing people in the stone chamber... This is to prevent tomb robbers."

Having said this, Mao Xiaofang already understood, and hurriedly said: "You mean, when his ancestor left him the key, he must have left this reminder at the same time, but the tomb robbers don't know, even if it is created by other methods. If you enter, you will be trapped by this stone gate in the end, and you will not be able to take anything with you in the end..."

"That's right. There are so many scrolls in that stone trough. The ones in front of them are all priceless calligraphy and paintings. Of course, the last one will not be let go. Besides, the ones in front are all fine. People have already let down their vigilance. Who would have thought that , the last scroll is connected to the mechanism..."

Speaking of this, he turned his head and said to Wutong: "I really don't blame you for this matter. If anyone saw that scroll, the result would be the same as yours."

Everyone thought about it secretly, if it was me, I would definitely pull out the scroll without hesitation... This is the result of the tomb repairer's study of people's hearts, and the clever design of the mechanism, it is impossible not to be tricked .

"Then what should we do now, there is no other exit here, we will be suffocated to death here!" Chen Xiaoyu shouted a little excitedly.

His yelling caused a shadow in everyone's hearts, and they looked at each other for a while. Finally, Ye Shaoyang came back to the stone gate and saw the stone trough dug out of it. Suffocate."

"So what, if we can't get out, we will be suffocated inside!" Chen Xiaoyu roared.

Ye Shaoyang was also speechless.

Everyone came to the stone gate together and tried to push the stone gate again, but the result was still not moving. In fact, there was no need to try this way at all: the people who repaired the tomb put in so much effort to build such a mechanism. If the stone gate can be opened easily, they are really useless. played.

Ye Shaoyang tried to dig out the gap he dug before, but the surrounding rocks were so strong that he couldn't dig it out with his hands. Everyone was so anxious that they had no choice but to hold shark oil lamps, leaning against the wall, and groped the walls of the two stone rooms almost inch by inch, but naturally there was no way to get out.

"I can't help it, it looks like I'm going to starve to death here." Mao Xiaofang lay down on the ground discouraged, with no intention of turning his head to the sky. Since he went to the tomb, everyone was very tired.

Ye Shaoyang and the others also sat down and began to think about how else they could get out. Chen Xiaoyu was a little emotional, walking around the stone room, yelling, but no one paid attention.

If only there were dynamite...

Ye Shaoyang couldn't help having a wild thought, just a little bit of explosives, stuffed into the gap dug before, and fixed-point blasting, it is easy to blow up a gap for people to get out...

"I have a solution!" Miao Xin said suddenly, interrupting Ye Shaoyang's wild thinking, and everyone looked at her for a moment.
