Chapter 31 Chapter Eight Terracotta Warriors

Situ Tianzuo walked slowly into the tomb.Under the light of the fire, it was discovered that these black shadows were human figurines made of clay. These terracotta figurines are as tall as real people, and they are lifelike, and each terracotta figurine has a different expression.The terracotta figurine standing at the front is wearing a double long coat, covered with colored fish scale armor, short capes on both shoulders, leggings tied to the shins, square shoes with square mouths and pointed shoes, and a pheasant crown on his head.Holding a sword in both hands, hanging in front of the abdomen, the body is strong, with a long face, a thick beard on each cheek, a serious face, and a mighty temperament.It seems that this pottery figurine should be the general who led the army to fight.After that, there are more than one hundred infantry figurines holding bronze long-axes, and these infantry figurines are also in different shapes.

These more than one hundred pottery figurines stand in the darkness, and after thousands of years, they are still lifelike, as if they were real people.Everyone was amazed when they saw it. Xiaotie said: "Grandpa, these are probably the Yin soldiers from the Mausoleum of the First Emperor." Tie Pobei nodded and said: "That's right. There must be such armored pottery figurines in the tomb in front. Qin Shihuang wanted to use these pottery figurines to create another hegemony for him in the underworld." Xiao Tie laughed and said, "Could it be that there are six kingdoms in the underworld for him to conquer?"

Tie Pobei slowly said: "Although Qin Shihuang destroyed the six kingdoms, he was very superstitious and believed in ghosts and gods. Maybe he thought that the people of the six kingdoms killed by him would avenge him in the underworld, so he created So many terracotta warriors guard him." Everyone walked out of this tomb and walked a few feet, only to see dozens of tombs lined up on the north side of the corridor in front of them. There are a large number of pottery figurines in each tomb, ranging from one to two hundred to as many as three to four hundred. Situ Tianzuo made a rough calculation, and there are at least tens of thousands of pottery warriors in these dozens of tombs.

Xiao Tie couldn't help sticking out his tongue, and said: "Qin Shihuang is so generous." After a pause, he added: "If these Yin soldiers are resurrected, we people will definitely not be able to resist." Lian Xing's heart suddenly moved, thinking of the resurrected stone man in the Longgang Qinglang Temple, and a few stone warriors in the sword mound who were alive at the sight of blood. Well, even if there are ten or eight resurrections, these people probably won't be able to resist it.Lian Xing secretly prayed in his heart that these Yin soldiers would not be like stone statue warriors who would live on the sight of blood.

After everyone stood in the last tomb and looked around, seeing that there was no other movement, Situ Tianzuo beckoned everyone to back out slowly. Lian Xing was at the end, his eyes flicked over the terracotta figurines one by one, and suddenly he saw the eyes of one of the terracotta figurines blink!Lian Xing was stunned, the terracotta figurines themselves were made of clay, why did they blink their eyes?He hurriedly stopped and watched intently, but the eyes of the pottery figurines returned to normal.Lian Xing almost suspected that he was dazzled.But in this pitch-black ancient tomb, murderous intentions are everywhere, every omission is very likely to ruin the lives of everyone, but it must not be careless.

Lian Xing held the torch in his hand, and walked slowly to the terracotta figurine to listen attentively. Sure enough, there was an extremely subtle breathing sound from the terracotta figurine.Lian Xing was shocked, how could there be breathing sound inside the body of the terracotta figurine?There must be someone hiding inside the terracotta figurines!As soon as he thought about it, he felt that the terracotta figurine in front of him suddenly swung the bronze long axe in his hand and slammed it towards him fiercely. Lian Xing's figure flashed, and he performed the magical skill of changing shape and changing shadows. His figure suddenly shifted three feet, barely avoiding the thunderous blow of the terracotta figurine!The terracotta figurines used too much force, and the bronze long-axe actually cracked a long hole in the blue stone of the hall.

The members of the Xiling faction had already walked outside the tomb, and heard a loud noise coming from the room, so they hurried over to hear the sound. Everyone was stunned when they saw the terracotta figurines attacking.The pottery figurine saw that he was too strong to resist under the siege of the crowd, so he waved his long bronze axe in his hand, trying to get out of the way. Tie Pobei shouted: "You kid who pretends to be a ghost, stay here!" After speaking, he stretched his body and came behind the terracotta figurine like lightning, shook his fingers a few times, and flew back to his original position.The terracotta figurines remained motionless!

It turned out that in this moment, the people inside the terracotta figurines had already been hit in several large holes behind them by the broken iron stele through a layer of clothes that looked like clay.There was a fierce light in the eyes of the terracotta figurine, as fierce as a ferocious beast trapped in a cage. Situ Tianzuo walked up to the terracotta figurine, and said in a deep voice, "My friend, who is it? Why did you sneak up on me from behind?" The terracotta figurine didn't say a word. Xiao Tie came up to him, stuck out the head of the meteor hammer from his sleeve, and made a gesture to hit the pottery figurine on the head, and shouted sharply: "Are you going to say it or not?"

As soon as the terracotta figurine gritted its teeth, its face turned black in an instant. The muscles on its face twisted and twitched a few times, and it died. Xiao Tie repeatedly said: "It's a pity, it's a pity. This kid committed suicide by taking poison." Situ Tianzuo walked behind the figurine, hooked his five fingers, and with a "chi" sound, tore off the figurine's clay-like clothes, exposing the skin on the back. Everyone took a photo with the torch, only to see a big word "Shou" engraved on the left shoulder of this terracotta figurine! Xiao Tie scolded: "It's the mausoleum guards again. Why do they haunt us and follow us all the time?"

Tie Pobei said in a deep voice: "We can't blame them, after all, it is their responsibility to guard the mausoleum." Everyone looked at the dark-faced mausoleum guard, and their hearts sank.The tomb guards of Qin Shihuang have been guarding the tomb of Qin Shihuang for thousands of years, but they have always remained the same, loyal to protect the tomb of Qin Shihuang.Its affection can be expressed, and its righteousness can be commended.Everyone was moved and admired. Tie Pobei slowly said: "For this responsibility, these mausoleum guards have guarded around Qin Shihuang's mausoleum all their lives, and remain unknown. This kind of perseverance is truly unmatched by humans." Everyone nodded silently.

Tie Pobei led the crowd out of this tomb, and after walking several zhang, they reached the end of the corridor in the outer hall. At the end, there were two huge stone gates standing impressively. Situ Tianzuo said slowly: "This is the Zhongxian Gate, and inside the Zhongxian Gate is the center of the Underground Profound Palace." Lian Xing shook his head and said, "Not yet. There must be a Neixian Gate inside. Only when you are inside the Neixian Gate, can you truly reach the center of the underground palace." Everyone looked up and saw that the two stone gates seemed to weigh tens of thousands of catties, standing firmly in the corridor, blocking the way. Situ Tianzuo said: "Master, why don't we use the Digger to dig a passage from the bottom, what do you think?" Tie Pobei smiled and said: "This time there is no need to go through so much trouble. You see, the structure of the Zhongxian Gate and the Outer Xian Gate is different. The Outer Xian Gate is a quicksand gate. After it is put down, it can no longer be opened. Only Use the Digger to dig a passage from the bottom to get in. The Zhongxian Gate is two ordinary stone gates, but they are extremely heavy. We can push them open with our combined efforts." Wu Wantong wondered: "Brother, why didn't the craftsmen of the Mausoleum of the First Emperor open the Zhongxian Gate and go inside to avoid disaster?" Tie Pobei said: "It is clearly recorded in the "Historical Records" that there are many ambushes in the Inner Xian Gate in the Zhongxian Gate, and anyone who approaches them will be shot to death with a strong bow and crossbow. The palace is even more filled with mercury, pouring it into all corners of the world. The mercury in the underground palace is floating everywhere, and it must have accumulated a lot in the Zhongxian Gate. After ordinary people enter, without any protection, they will be poisoned and die .” Looking at the two heavy stone doors, Wu Wantong couldn't help but feel chilled. Wu Wantong murmured: "Then if we enter the Zhongxian Gate, will we die in vain?" Tie Pobei said in a deep voice: "I'm not afraid of that. When I came, I had ordered dozens of sets of water benches to be used for platooning education in Xiangxi. After opening the Zhongxian Gate, let's put on silk masks and water benches. At least You can hold on for an hour. After an hour, return immediately by the same route, and there should be no serious problem." Lian Xing said: "Senior Tie, I think it's better for us to change the water tank and the gas mask in advance, so that we won't be caught off guard if the poisonous gas gushes out after we open the Zhongxian Gate." Tie Pobei nodded, and said, "Lian Xing is very true." Then he asked Situ Tianzuo to distribute water pillows and silk masks to dozens of disciples of the Xiling Sect.Everyone got dressed one by one. Situ Tianzuo looked at King Miao standing in the distance, and whispered to Tie Pobei: "Master, do you want to give that King Miao a pair?" Tie Pobei hesitated for a moment, but still nodded: "Give him a pair." Situ Tianzuo nodded, and was just about to order the Weitang disciples to hand over a set of water to King Miao, but King Miao chuckled and said: "Master Tie, there is no need for Miao. This kindness is appreciated by Miao." Tie Pobei said coldly: "Brother Miao really don't want it?" King Miao said with a smile: "Miao has his own strategy to deal with the poisonous mercury gas, Mr. Tie doesn't need to worry too much." Tie Pobei sneered and said, "It's because our Xiling faction is being sentimental. Tianzuo, let's open the Zhongxian Gate." After saying that, he turned around and called the Xiling faction to gather together, "Although the Zhongxian Gate is heavy, as long as we gather With the power of everyone, everything can be easily solved.” It turns out that the Xiling Sect has a skill of gathering energy, everyone joined hands, each palm against the vest of the person in front.By analogy, the power of ten people can inspire a hundred times the power.More than forty Diweitang disciples plus Tie Pobei, Wu Wantong, Situ Tianzuo, Lian Xing, and Xiao Tie are worth hundreds of people. At the moment, everyone lined up in two rows in front of the gate, each resisting the two stone gates. Tie Pobei led Lian Xing and other 20 disciples on the left, Situ Tianzuo led Xiao Tie and another 20 disciples from the Diwei Hall on the right, and put their palms against the stone gate.Wu Wantong was in charge of monitoring Miao Wang, fearing that Miao Wang might change something. Tie Pobei and Situ Tianzuo looked at each other, the master and apprentice roared, and everyone struck out with all their palms at the same time!A force surged towards Zhongxian Gate!I only heard the rattle of the two Zhongxian doors, and they opened slowly.Everyone was overjoyed. At this moment, Tie Pobei and Situ Tianzuo felt a numbness at the Dazhui acupoint behind them, unable to move.All the prestige disciples behind him shouted and cursed.
