Chapter 365: Empty Underground Palace
Chapter 365: Empty Underground Palace
There are indeed differences between the real tomb door and the fake one. There are hidden mechanisms in many places, but no one can be sure whether these mechanisms can open the tomb door or will cause harm to them.
The tomb gate stands in front of me, with two stone statues in front of it. I don’t know what animals they are, but they look like totems from western Hunan.
No one paid much attention to it, but many mechanisms could easily be placed in such places, so everyone began to observe the stone statues and the various patterns on the door, trying to find a way to open the tomb door.
Soon, everyone found the mechanism, and then they found it directly, which was hidden under the base of the stone statue. It was a very simple mechanism.
Such a large tomb is relatively rare.
Therefore, when everyone found it, they were even a little skeptical.
But Xu Feng explained to everyone: "We have searched all the mechanisms here and still ruled out those that cannot be the mechanisms to open the tomb door, so it must be this one!"
Everyone looked at Xu Feng, but only saw Xu Feng said it very precisely.
"This guy has already let his descendants and the insects he researched to guard the first gate of the tomb for him, so he certainly didn't expect that someone would enter the tomb door directly. So the setting of this tomb door should not be that complicated. It should basically be like this."
After hearing what Xu Feng said, everyone felt relieved. However, Xu Feng was also very clear that although the method of opening the tomb door was simple, what kind of situation they would face after entering was another matter.
Before everyone was about to walk over and open the wooden tomb door, Xu Feng still said to everyone: "It must be extremely complicated in here, and we don't know what kind of dangers we will encounter, so everyone must be extremely alert and absolutely cannot be careless or lax."
What Xu Feng said rang like thunder in everyone's minds and hearts. They all knew that what was coming would be a very difficult experience to get through.
However, after experiencing so many companions dying in front of them, they still have no intention of giving up, but they must be careful and determined to win!
After confirming that the mechanism was under the base, Zhang Rishan's men walked over without hesitation and activated the mechanism.
Everyone only felt the ground shaking, and a lot of dust and gravel fell from the huge stone gate.
Maybe it was sealed for too long, so it wasn't so smooth to open. The ground was shaking continuously.
Everyone couldn't help but take two steps back to avoid the dust and prevent it from falling on themselves.
Along with the rumbling sound of vibration, everyone saw that the stone door in front of them, which was like a wall, actually had a crack.
In fact, when they were in front of the stone door just now, they also felt very strange, because they observed very carefully and found that the two stone doors were closed very tightly.
It's like there isn't even a crack at all...
This made them feel very confused.
It was under such circumstances that everyone even doubted whether this was the entrance.
However, Xu Feng was very sure that this was indeed the tomb door leading to the main tomb of the Xiangxi Gu King.
At this moment, everyone was staring at the opening of the stone door.
Everyone began to feel their heartbeats quickening. After going through all the dangers along the way, they finally reached the entrance.
Therefore, everyone actually still feels a little bit excited.
At this time, Fatty couldn't help but clapped his hands: "Finally, I can go in and take a good look..."
At this moment, everyone was extremely excited, and as the stone door gradually opened, a seemingly larger space appeared in front of them.
However, the tomb chamber inside was neither as bright as they had imagined, nor as dark as they had imagined.
According to their experience, in general tombs, there are either various light sources or candles made of special fish oil that can burn for thousands of years.
Therefore, it will appear very bright, otherwise, there will be nothing, completely dark.
After following them in, I found that the light inside the tomb was almost the same as outside, with not much difference.
When they looked carefully, they discovered that the surrounding walls were coated with some luminous material.
These materials were applied on the wall. They emitted a faint glow. Although the light was not bright, it could still illuminate everything around. "Let's go in. Since we have waited for this moment for so long, don't hesitate."
The moment the door opened, everyone was watching, but no one inside actually took a step forward and stepped inside.
Xu Feng was naturally very clear that everyone was hesitating at this time...
If there are any hidden weapons inside, it would be terrible.
So Xu Feng walked to the door and looked at the floor below. Each floor was very tight and solid, so there should not be any mechanism.
So, he was the first to walk in without hesitation.
When everyone saw this, they could only sigh at Xu Feng's courage...
The fat man couldn't help but say, "Master Xu, you better be careful. There might be some strange mechanisms in this tomb."
"It would be no fun if you were accidentally hit by countless flying swords and stabbed like a hedgehog."
Xu Feng turned around, smiled and said, "What's the matter? Are you scared?!"
The fat man immediately became unhappy after being provoked by Xu Feng!
"What do you mean by scared? What have I ever been scared of?!"
As he said that, he swaggered in with his backpack on his back.
The fat man looked very majestic, as if he was really fearless. Fortunately, there were no traps. After they entered, they began to observe very carefully.
Everyone immediately followed and walked in...
I want to figure out where exactly this tomb is.
The tomb of the Gu King in western Hunan is actually very different from other underground palaces.
Seeing this palace-like existence in front of him, Chen Zhao still felt confused, because there seemed to be nothing in this hall.
Apart from a few pillars in the center, there was nothing else. This was the first time they had seen such a scene.
Seeing the bare ground, Fatty Wang couldn't help but sigh, "Damn, what kind of rotten underground palace is this? It's so empty here. The Xiangxi Gu King is really stingy!"
"Are you really not going to leave any wealth for Fatty Grandpa?"
When Fatty Wang came in, of course, the first thing he wanted to check was whether there was anything valuable that he could take out and sell for a good price.
However, this hall was empty, with nothing in it.
At this time, Zhang Rishan also came over.
After observing it carefully, he also felt puzzled, so he immediately asked: "Boss Xu, according to your opinion, what is going on?"
"I have never seen such an empty underground palace before."
Xu Feng shook his head: "This Xiangxi Gu King is originally a very strange person. Who knows why he built such an empty palace in front of his underground palace? What's the meaning of it?"
"Let's go to the pillars and take a look first!"
Zhang Rishan nodded.
Because of those pillars, they looked very out of place in the huge but extremely empty palace, so they saw them as soon as they came in.
