Chapter 627: The key to the nail!

Everyone looked at the unmoving underground palace door in front of them and immediately suggested to Yang Kaihua and Jia Dongming: "Deputy Captain Yang! Deputy Captain Jia! Zheng Ming deliberately sealed the underground palace door to block our way forward and buy time for them to empty the treasures in the treasury. In order to prevent King Chuang's treasure from falling into Zheng Ming's hands, why don't we just blow up the door directly."

When Yang Kaihua heard Zhou Hua's proposal, he refused without thinking: "Zhou Hua! Before we set out, the leader gave a special instruction that we must not destroy any cultural relics when carrying out the mission."

"Look at this stone door, it's as white as jade. After so many years, it's still as crystal clear as jade and as white as snow, which means that the material used for this stone door is not ordinary stone. In addition, you can see that there are nipple-shaped door nails on the door, 9 in total in 81 rows vertically and horizontally. On the door surface facing each other, there are animal heads with rings in their mouths, which is enough to prove that this is a cultural relic, so this door cannot be blown up no matter what."

Jia Dongming remained silent, looking at the underground palace door in front of him, recalling in his mind the method used by tomb robbers to open the underground palace door in tomb-robbing movies.

About five or six minutes later, Jia Dongming thought of a documentary he had watched before. The content of this documentary was about the excavation process of Dingling Tomb in the Ming Dynasty's Thirteen Tombs.

When archaeologists were excavating Dingling, they encountered a similar situation. Later, someone thought of the crooked nail key and finally used the crooked nail key to successfully open the underground palace door of Dingling.

Thinking of the key, Jia Dongming immediately said to Yang Kaihua and others: "Deputy Captain Yang! In ancient times, the death time of emperors and queens was rarely the same. When the couple needed to be buried together, they must have reopened the tomb and sent the coffin into the tomb for burial. So I think there must be a way to successfully open this door. Otherwise, how did Zheng Ming and others enter the underground palace? And then push the door back up?"

When Yang Kaihua heard Jia Dongming's reminder, he suddenly remembered something that happened a few years ago. He was overjoyed and said to Jia Dongming: "Director Jia! Hearing you say that, I remembered something. A few years ago, the Municipal Bureau received a report that several tomb robbers were secretly digging a mausoleum in Changping."

"After receiving the report, my master personally led people to Changping and eventually captured the tomb robbers. At that time, the mausoleum had been damaged by tomb robbers. In order to protect the cultural relics in the mausoleum, our archaeological experts carried out rescue excavations in the mausoleum."

"I remember my master once said that when archaeological experts were excavating the underground palace, they encountered a stone that blocked the door. Later, they got inspiration from an ancient book and used something called a crutch key to open the door of the underground palace."

At this time, Jia Dongming had already figured out how to open the underground palace door, but in order to avoid some trouble, Jia Dongming immediately asked Yang Kaihua after hearing what Yang Kaihua said: "Deputy Captain Yang! Do you know what shape the nail key is, and how to push open the stone bar behind the underground palace door to open it?"

After hearing Jia Dongming's question, Yang Kaihua carefully recalled for a long time, and finally remembered what his master had introduced. He excitedly introduced to Jia Dongming and others: "Director Jia! I remember my master once said that the archaeological experts at that time first arranged people to push the underground palace door open a crack, and then used a one-meter-long wire, tied with a rope, to pass through the crack of the stone door, and then turned around and put it around the waist of the stone."

"After everything was ready, everyone worked together to push the door. At the same time, two team members pulled the rope tied to the door stone, and the other team members used bamboo boards to reach into the upper end of the door stone through the crack in the door, pushing the stone door as they pushed, pushing and pushing. In this way, the crack in the door became wider and wider. When it was nearly one foot wide, a team member leaned sideways and crawled in from the bottom." "After that team member went in, he hugged the door stone with both hands and successfully straightened it. When the crack in the door was more than two feet wide, a few more team members went in and worked together to lift the door stone open. Finally, the archaeological experts successfully opened the door to the underground palace."

The situation Yang Kaihua introduced was what Jia Dongming had seen in the documentary. However, considering that they did not bring wire with them, Jia Dongming reminded Yang Kaihua with a serious face: "Deputy Captain Yang! Although the method you mentioned can successfully open the door, we did not bring wire with us. How to put the rope around the waist of the stone? This may not be an easy task."

"Director Jia! The wire you mentioned seems to be here. If I'm not mistaken, it should have been abandoned here by Zheng Ming and others." A policeman heard what Jia Dongming said, reached out to pick up a piece of wire on the ground, and spoke to Jia Dongming.

Just when everyone was thinking about finding a substitute for the iron wire, the policeman's words made Yang Kaihua and others feel enlightened. Yang Kaihua couldn't wait to ask the policeman: "Xiao Chen! Where is the iron wire you mentioned?"

When Xiao Chen heard Yang Kaihua's question, he quickly handed the wire he had just picked up to Yang Kaihua and reported respectfully: "Captain Yang! The wire is here."

When Jia Dongming saw the wire in Xiao Chen's hand, he was immediately surprised and said happily, "After Zheng Ming and his friends used the wire to open the door, they thought it was no longer useful and abandoned it. Later, in order to prevent us from entering the underground palace, they propped up the door again. But they never thought that we would know how to use the principle of the crutch key to open the door of the underground palace."

After using the method to open the door of the underground palace, everyone worked together and followed the method introduced by Yang Kaihua, and finally successfully opened the door of the underground palace.

After entering the underground palace, Jia Dongming used his eagle eye skill to look at the underground palace, which was more than 100 square meters in size. Except for two opened coffins and an altar used for sacrifice, everything else in the underground palace had already been emptied.

When Jia Dongming saw the scene in front of him, he remembered his previous judgment and immediately began to use his Eagle Eye skill to search for the footprints of Zheng Ming and others on the ground of the underground palace.

The result is that you don't know until you see it. You will be shocked when you see it. Before Jia Dongming found the traces of Zheng Ming and others, he discovered that under this underground palace, there was another larger mausoleum hidden.
