Chapter 772 60 Yaozu Sister Control Group 9
Xiao Yun stared at the light screen, watching them walk all the way up the mountain. At the beginning, the scenery was unclear because everything was white due to the snow. When he saw scattered tombstones and stone statues, Xiao Yun finally knew where they were going.
Shi Weng Zhong refers to the stone statues in front of the tombs of ancient emperors or ministers. Some people also call them Shi Xiangsheng. In fact, there is a certain difference between Shi Weng Zhong and Shi Xiangsheng.
Stone figures, animals, etc. carved in front of the tombs of ancient emperors or ministers are collectively called stone statues, but only stone figures can be called stone Weng Zhong. Stone Weng Zhong can be divided into civil officials (those holding tablets) and military generals (those holding swords).
From this we can see that this is an imperial tomb. However, in the original body's memory, there is only one imperial tomb here, and that is the emperor of the Jin Dynasty.
It's just that there was no owner in this tomb. It was moved away hundreds of years ago, so there is no coffin inside, and of course no burial objects. Only these lonely stone carvings that cannot be moved are left.
So they definitely didn't come here to rob the tomb. There was only one possibility: they had hidden something here before, and they came here to take it out.
As for why we didn’t choose another season, it’s of course because almost no one goes up the mountain at this time, and with the snow, you don’t have to clear the traces yourself, as they will be covered by themselves.
If they weren't robbing tombs, why did they bring a whole live chicken? Also, if they were bringing a rooster, they should have brought a hen. As the saying goes, you can't steal gold until the rooster crows, so you can't expect a hen to crow, right?
It was not until they actually entered the underground palace that Xiao Yun realized that he had thought they were too professional.
I saw them split a hemp rope into two strands, tied them to the chicken's neck and legs, and then put the chicken in when the stone tomb door was opened.
The stairs inside must be quite steep. When the chicken was put down, there was a series of flapping sounds of its wings. It was probably rolled down the stairs.
The sound didn't stop after that. It stayed there for five or six minutes before there was no movement inside.
The man holding the hemp rope at the door quickly pulled it, and then the sound of flapping wings appeared again below, and then those people walked in one after another.
Xiao Yun: ...Okay, they just used this chicken to detect whether there was air inside. She was overthinking it.
After those people went down to the underground palace, Jiaduobao also quickly followed them down with the surveillance robot.
When they got to the bottom of the underground palace, Jiaduobao used a camera to take a picture of the entire underground palace, and saw that it was full of boxes and sacks.
The scene was so spectacular that even Xiao Yun almost cried out in surprise.
Don’t think that the underground palace of the mausoleum here is small. It was once the tomb of an emperor, and its specifications are there.
This underground palace is at least several hundred square meters, and it has high ceilings. The boxes and sacks are stacked high. She is afraid that it will collapse and crush those people. Then her stepfather and brother will have a hard time doing their meritorious service.
Because the camera couldn't detect what was inside, Xiao Yun could only guess what was inside based on the shapes of the boxes and sacks.
Those boxes were not made of good wood and looked like they were from the Anti-Japanese War period. There was a high possibility that there were weapons inside. At that time, wooden boxes of this shape were used to store guns and ammunition.
As for those sacks, they looked bulging and without edges, so they were probably filled with food.
I just don’t know if these foods are still edible after so many years.
After entering the underground palace, those people did not even glance at these things, but walked straight towards the small door that was blocked behind the box, leaving only a gap.
There should be a side tomb chamber, mostly used to store burial objects or concubines.
Sure enough, after those people went in, the images they received clearly showed what was inside.
The ground was in a mess, with a lot of broken porcelain and bones. These bones should have been those of slaves and servants buried with the deceased, and they were not collected when the graves were moved.
There is also a stone platform in the center of the tomb chamber. Judging from its size and shape, it should be used to place the coffin. However, now there are only some broken stones and rotten wooden boards.
As soon as those people entered, they began to grope on a side wall. Is there some mechanism there?
Xiao Yun's curiosity was aroused again. He stared at the light screen carefully without blinking, wanting to know where the mechanism was.
These people had hardly spoken to each other since they went up the mountain, especially when they were climbing, they only said a few words, mostly things like "Be careful, turn left, keep going."
This is indeed understandable. They are not afraid that someone on the mountain will hear their conversation, but because in such cold weather, they need to pull the scarf down a little when talking, and in just a short while, they may get frostbite.
Some people may think that this description is a bit exaggerated, but it is actually the truth.
The temperature here during the twelfth lunar month is extremely low, even reaching minus 40 to 50 degrees Celsius! Such extreme cold is unimaginable for people living in other areas.
For example, if a person goes out with a hat that does not completely cover his ears, then if he stays outside for a while longer, his ears will lose sensation due to the extreme cold.
When he returns to the room and tries to touch his ears, he may be surprised to find that they fall off with a slight push!
However, after entering the underground palace, they still had almost no conversation, which was a bit strange. The underground palace was similar to a cellar, usually warm in winter and cool in summer. At least we could see them unbuttoning their scarves and even their coats.
Just when Xiao Yun was wondering why they were still so quiet, suddenly, one of them touched a bulge on the wall and said, "Found it!"
Then he pressed hard on the bulge, and the gravel on the central stone platform began to shake. Then a crack appeared, slowly separating to both sides, revealing a downward passage after a while.
The men threw the chicken down again, and only started walking down the passage after making sure it was okay.
The passage must have been filled with a rotten smell, and several people covered their mouths and noses with scarves.
Because the camera was in night mode, the flickering phosphorescence on the walls on both sides was clearly recorded.
Because he was afraid of waking up Xiao Huandi next to him, Xiao Yun turned up the volume very low. For a moment, he could only hear slight footsteps and an even slighter echo.
Jiaduobao followed invisibly at the end, taking careful pictures up and down and to the sides from time to time, and then the picture on the screen suddenly froze, and the person in front stopped.
The camera moved forward and found that it had reached the end of the passage. There was a stone door with strange runes engraved on it.
