Chapter 41 Chapter 41: The First Intruders

Because after walking around the tunnel several times, they couldn't find the exit, and there was no danger in the tunnel, so Lao Yue told the others to rest where they were, and she and Huang Qianshan continued to find the exit.The tunnel was like a circle, Huang Qianshan circled it a few times, but instead of reaching the end, he walked back to the starting point.Apart from the trap door like a skylight, Huang Qianshan couldn't find a single gap, so there could be no mechanism in the tunnel.If there was no exit, it would be impossible for the people in Heishan Village to get out of the tunnel, but Huang Qianshan and Lao Yue could not find the exit of the tunnel.Time passed little by little, and Huang Qianshan was suffering both inside and outside his body. After he closed his eyes, he calculated that the exit was related to "Tianmen is the entrance".

Lao Yue stopped to listen to Huang Qianshan's analysis, and she asked: "That sentence says that Tianmen is the entrance, but we need to find the exit, so it doesn't matter?" Huang Qianshan said firmly: "It can't be wrong. Tianmen is the entrance, which means the entrance of the queen's tomb, but for us it is the exit of the tunnel. In fact, they all refer to the same thing." Lao Yue just stopped under the trap door, she looked up and said, "But there is no door here, could it be the trap door above the head." Huang Qianshan has already figured out a clue. He touched the rough inner wall of the tunnel and explained: "The Gate of Heaven does not refer to the real gate. The ancient tombs pay attention to Feng Shui and the five elements of Yin and Yang. The only possibility is that this sentence is related to Yin and Yang and the Five Elements."

Lao Yue traveled with her parents to the north and south, and her knowledge was no less than that of Huang Qianshan. She realized: "In ancient times, Tianmen was also called Tianguan and Shangsha, which means the entrance of the water flow in the cave." Huang Qianshan glanced at the tunnel in front of him, and said to Lao Yue: "There is a saying in the ancients: when you go to the mountain to find the mouth of water, where the water comes from is called the gate of heaven, if you don't see the source and flow, it is said that the gate of heaven is open." Huang Qianshan walked forward slowly, and Lao Yue followed closely. He touched the inner wall and talked while walking. The people in charge of the mountain, Dingshui, are the main wealth, and the source of water is the source of wealth. Unobstructed is expensive.Wealth is the only way to live, and if you want to live, you have to walk out of the tunnel. In this way, there must be a place in the tunnel where the inner wall is wet.

As soon as he finished speaking, Huang Qianshan turned around and saw Cai Minmin and the others sitting on the ground resting. Liang Xiaoyu looked at Huang Qianshan nonchalantly, as if nothing had happened.Huang Qianshan stopped, and his hand happened to touch a relatively moist gray-gray inner wall, which was completely different from the inner wall he touched along the way.The inner wall of the tunnel is rough and dry, without any carvings. Huang Qianshan's fingertips will feel a special feeling here. The blue-gray inner wall is very thick. Huang Qianshan punched it a few times, but he couldn't tell if the back was empty, but it also showed that the tunnel would never be so thin that it could be broken with a single blow.Hao Dali saw Huang Qianshan beating the inner wall of the tunnel, so he immediately came over and asked if he had found the exit.Huang Qianshan touched the inner wall here all over, but apart from being wet, the inner wall was exactly the same as the others.In the end, Huang Qianshan felt a little bit of sticky black substance, he thought it was an important clue, and after putting it in front of his eyes, Hao Dali said it was the booger he had just wiped on the wall.

Cai Minmin, Gu Changtian, and Liang Xiaoyu surrounded them. They looked at the inner wall of the tunnel, thinking that there was a secret passage, but no one could see the doorway.Lao Yue clenched her fist and hit the inner wall a few times. After the beating, she sniffed vigorously, as if the blue-gray inner wall had a fragrance.Huang Qianshan thought disgustingly, the inner wall was full of Hao Dali's booger, Lao Yue smelled it so vigorously, the heads of rich people are really different from ordinary people. "This is the Bonanluo living stone!" Lao Yueqi said. "What stone?" Huang Qianshan asked in confusion.

Lao Yue said excitedly, she said that in the middle of the 19th century, there was an architect named Bonanlo in Ivrea, a small town in northern Italy. Once he brought back a cart of stones from the mountains outside the town to build a building. church.Strangely, each time the stone was polished into the desired shape, the stone became much larger the next day.After observing for a period of time, Bonanluo found that those stones could actually grow, and at a very fast speed.Bonanlo wanted to figure out why the stones had gotten bigger, so he sent one to a friend in England. It is a pity that a massacre occurred in the town where Bonanluo was located a few days later, and both Bonanluo and his craftsmen were killed.His British friend found it incredible after receiving the stone, but Bonanlo was dead, and the British friend went to Italy but failed to find out the origin of the stone.In order to commemorate Bonanluo, the British friends of Bonanluo called the stone Bonanluo Living Stone, and this stone is now collected by the British Royal Palace.Scientists have studied it, but there is very little exposed information, only that there is a smell of roast beef when the stone is struck.

Lao Yue said that after mineral rocks are formed, they will undergo changes such as weathering, metamorphism, and deposition under natural conditions, and their size and properties will also change.Usually, it is obvious from large to small, such as weathering and dry cracking, but it takes a very long geological process to go from small to large.The reason why the Bonanluo living stone is called a living stone is because this kind of stone has a biological substance attached to it, but she doesn't know what kind of substance it is.It's just that five years ago, Lao Yue and his parents met an expert who studied Bonanluo live stones in the UK, and they saw a sample with their own eyes.The expert told them that the most peculiar feature of the Bonanluo living rock is that it can spit out oxygen in the absence of light, which is one of the basis why scientists determined that there are living substances attached to the living rock.

Huang Qianshan was confused when he heard that, and he asked: "Even if it can explain that we have oxygen to breathe in the closed tunnel, is Bonan Luoshi related to finding the exit?" Lao Yue smiled and said: "The Bonanluo living stone will grow. If the first group of intruders escaped from the tunnel without leaving any traces, it is very likely that one of them was broken. After many years, the Bonanluo living stone will grow again." When we grow back, we will naturally not see any clues. The most important point is what you just said, Shan Guanren Dingshui is the main wealth. Although the Bonanluo live rock is very hard, water can penetrate the Bonanluo live rock. As long as you suck it Filled with water, the Bonanlo rocks are easily broken."

"The Bonanluo living stone is so magical? When I touched it, it felt soft or hard." Cai Minmin said disappointedly. "But compared to ordinary stones, its hardness will be greatly reduced after it touches water. As long as it is used properly, this wall can be broken." Lao Yue affirmed. After Gu Changtian touched the inner wall, he said falteringly, "Hit...won't hit...break it." Huang Qianshan looked at Gu Changtian, his mouth was deformed, and the wound was torn open as soon as he spoke, no one could bear to continue watching.Huang Qianshan asked worriedly: "Let's not talk about whether we can break this stone wall. If there is water behind it, if we break it, the water will flood in and drown us?"

Lao Yue said confidently: "Absolutely not. Mr. Huang, you just said that the entrance of Tianmen is a clue, and it is perfect to combine with this stone wall. Besides, there are no corpses in the tunnel, which means that the first batch of intruders succeeded. out of the tunnel, behind the stone wall must be the place leading to the queen's tomb." Not much time left, Huang Qianshan took out a Swiss Army knife and stabbed at the inner wall. Unexpectedly, a large piece fell off the stone wall with a stab, accompanied by the smell of roast beef. He also stabbed hard at the inner wall of the tunnel together with Huang Qianshan.After all, a stone is a stone, no matter how low the hardness is, it is difficult to break. After working hard for almost half an hour, Huang Qianshan finally made a small hole.

A drop of water gushed out of the hole, and they soon heard the sound of dripping water, and the Bonanluo living rock had already been broken by them to a thickness of half a meter.Huang Qianshan, Hao Dali, and Lao Yue worked hard, and after more than ten minutes, a hole was finally punched out in the inner wall of the tunnel.Lao Yue crawled over first, and then took the others one by one. After they came out, they found a trickle falling from the other side of the tunnel, hitting the outer wall of the tunnel. Behind the tunnel is a palace. There is a staircase coming out of the tunnel. Huang Qianshan counted it, and there are eighty-one steps.There is a canal around the palace, the water quality is clear, not like the strange water in the cave.Perhaps because of the introduction of groundwater, the tile roofs in the palace faded, the pillars and foundations were cracked, and the wooden utensils turned into air earlier.There are many yellow stone birds, stone trees, and stone beasts inside and outside the palace, all of which the six people have never seen before. The palace is not too big, every place is covered with dust, Huang Qianshan has also visited the ancient tomb, but he feels that this palace has a sense of fairyland, not as eerie and gloomy as the Hades.Although there is no evil spirit, Huang Qianshan still feels that there is something wrong in the palace, it seems that it is not grand enough and a bit shabby.Lao Yue said that maybe this is not the reason for the main hall. Usually there are several Hades in ancient tombs, but only one is the main hall, and the others are just for supporting life, not too extravagant. Liang Xiaoyu looked at the palace quietly, without any joy, and became even more anxious as soon as she entered.Huang Qianshan glanced at it, and found that Liang Xiaoyu's complexion was getting better and better. The pills she took must have a detoxifying effect.Huang Qianshan suppressed his anger, he thought that he was really going to be poisoned, no matter how other people objected, he would touch Liang Xiaoyu all over to see if she still hid the antidote and didn't share it. At this time, Hao Dali suddenly yelled, it turned out that there was a dead man under a stone tree in the palace.Huang Qianshan and Cai Minmin walked over first, and Lao Yue was going to accompany Gu Changtian, so he had to move slowly.The dead man was wearing the same style of clothes as the weather station, green clothes from the 1960s and 1970s, but after so many years, the green clothes have become yellow clothes.Huang Qianshan pinched his nose and carefully looked through the dead man's clothes, but found nothing. After Lao Yue helped Gu Changtian come over, she said that the dead people might be the first group of intruders, maybe someone was injured when they passed through the tunnel, so they died here.Although the manuscript said that there were people who moved mountains on the ground to rob the tomb, Lao Yue believed that they were unsuccessful, and they did not pass through the tunnel to reach the palace, so the people from the village of Heishan were the first group of intruders.Huang Qianshan felt reasonable, he always wanted to know what the first batch of intruders were doing.Because the 1960s and 1970s was the period of New China, the government could not ignore such a large group of people entering Shanzha Village, not to mention that brick houses were considered a relatively high-end house at that time, and it was impossible for ordinary people to live in the mountains casually. Building such a village, so the background of the first group of intruders is likely to be related to the government. There is a canal next to the palace, and the canal surrounds the palace, but there is no pool in the palace.Cai Minmin heard the sound of gurgling water behind the palace, and there was a dappled light and shadow behind a window of the palace, so she said that there might be a paradise behind the palace.Huang Qianshan quickly grabbed Cai Minmin, because he felt that the position of the dead man was not right, it seemed to be running out, but fell down facing the way it came from.Huang Qianshan said that it was likely that there was danger behind the palace, and the man wanted to run away, but in the end he couldn't. "The back of this palace should be the main hall. I don't know if the craftsmen who built the tomb left behind and sneaked out." Lao Yue said worriedly. "Don't worry, there must be. Many stories are written like this, and they are not stupid." Cai Minmin said with a snort. Huang Qianshan wasn't worried about the way out. He looked at the dead man. Although its flesh had turned to ashes, Huang Qianshan always felt that the dead man had a great sense of fear when he was alive.Just as Huang Qianshan wanted to stand up and go to the back of the palace with Lao Yue to see what happened, he saw the dead man holding a transparent glass bottle in his hand.Only the yellow and black bones remained in the dead man's hand, and Huang Qianshan took a lot of effort to take out the bottle. There was originally a label on the bottle, but it was so decayed that it could not be seen, with only a little trace attached to the body of the bottle.There was a light red liquid in the bottle. Huang Qianshan uncorked the bottle and smelled it. There was a sickly sour smell.The others stepped aside as soon as they smelled it, Huang Qianshan hurriedly capped the bottle, maybe the liquid in the bottle had gone bad, that's why the smell was so sour. When Huang Qianshan plugged the bottle, he suddenly remembered something that Lu Wangqing had mentioned before his death - when Lu Wangqing was a child and stole animals, there was a ceramic box that was empty, but there was a sour smell on the box.Lu Wangqing has often played in the mountains since he was a child. Until he hid in the mountains five years ago, he had never seen what was in the box, and of course he didn't know what was in the box.Huang Qianshan looked at the bottle, and he had a feeling—the ceramic box that Lu Wangqing stole was not empty, and the things inside were related to the first group of intruders, and that thing was probably in the queen's tomb!
