Cao Cao called me to rob a tomb

Chapter 867 Permeable Tomb (4000)

"Old man, what is Locking Dragon Pillar?"

Wu Liang looked at Yu Ji puzzled, and asked on behalf of everyone.

"This is the method used to break the dragon's veins and Fengshui. There is a saying in the art of geomancy, the so-called sky has the weather, the earth has the earth's atmosphere, everything needs to come from the heaven and the earth, and people often say that the dragon's veins are the place where the earth's atmosphere is most abundant. , and if this lock dragon pillar is fixed on the Fengshui hole of the dragon vein, it can cut off the local earth energy and turn it from the dragon vein into a dangerous place."

Yu Ji said solemnly, "No wonder there is a dead dragon pattern here. Now it seems that with this lock dragon pillar, this place has changed from a dragon vein to a sinister dead dragon."

"Dead dragon..."

Wu Liang remembered Yu Ji's previous explanation about the pattern of dead dragons.

This kind of pattern is not just as simple as cutting off children and grandchildren, but even the surname is difficult to preserve, and it must be sinister.

But why would someone set the Dragon Locking Pillar here, so that this dragon vein, which was originally possible to be the most energetic, would become a dead dragon with a unique surname?
Think about this.

Wu Liang suddenly realized something in his heart, looked at Yu Ji with serious eyes, and then said: "Old man, someone set up the lock dragon pillar here, it must be for the sake of the surname, so can I infer from this that this The ancestors of a certain clan may be buried in the place, and it is the mausoleum of the ancestors of a certain clan, and the person who erected the Dragon Locking Pillar was just to drive out all the people of this clan, so that they will never be able to stand up again?"

"It can indeed be speculated that way."

Yu Ji nodded and continued: "Besides, since this place is an extremely rare innate dragon vein, it became a dead dragon because of the lock dragon pillar, so it is not difficult to infer that those who used this place as the ancestral mausoleum at the beginning, the people of the next generation must not It will be an unknown person, at least it is a big surname that covers the sky with one hand, otherwise it will be sorry for this innate dragon vein!"

It's not a coincidence, isn't it?

Hearing these words, such a sigh immediately appeared in the hearts of everyone.

Unexpectedly, they came all the way to this holy mountain of doctors to detoxify, but in the end they might have a connection with an ancient tomb. Although what they usually do most is tomb robbery, there is really no need for God to cooperate with their profession like this ?

of course.

Now everything is just speculation by Wu Liang and Yu Ji.

Although it sounds reasonable and well-founded, I don’t know how long this place has lasted, and it has also experienced years of violent impact by the water of the Yellow River. Even if there are any ancient tombs, I am afraid that they may not be able to be preserved. Everything needs to be investigated again. to be able to draw conclusions.

But then again.

Considering the current situation, even if there is really some powerful ancient tomb here, the top priority of Wu Liang and others is still to find a way to leave this secret place as soon as possible, otherwise, even if some shocking secret is found here, they will not be able to bring it back What's the difference between going out to see the light of day again and earning money but not spending your life?
Everyone in the Huan army understood this truth, and Wu Liang naturally understood this truth even more.

But say it.

After Wu Liang used the water control technique to forcibly block the water of the Yellow River and divert it, everyone felt that the vibration under their feet was much reduced, and the feeling of being unsteady and unable to stand also disappeared.

This was a good thing, at least it proved that Wu Liang had temporarily stabilized the current situation and bought some time for them.

So the stability is temporarily stabilized, what should we do next?

Wu Liang still had no clue.

Now he has the same information as everyone in the Huanren Army. Except for the three gates that have collapsed, he doesn't know if there is any other way to get out of the secret realm.

So ponder for a moment.

"Yang Wanli, you take the lead in trying to repair the three gatehouses first, and try to reassemble them. Maybe they can still be used after they are put together."

Wu Liang didn't accept Taiji's words, but arranged this way to Yang Wanli.

In fact, he also knew in his heart that this was a dead horse acting as a living horse doctor, after all, everyone saw the collapse of the three gatehouses just now.

Not to mention whether the magic power attached to the gate tower has been destroyed along with the shattering of the gate tower.

Even if it is put together, it cannot be kept intact, just like a porcelain vase, if a porcelain vase is only broken into a few pieces, it is easy to piece it together, but if the porcelain vase is broken into many pieces like the three gatehouses , the difficulty of putting it together is naturally not the same, and it is impossible to guarantee that there is no missing.

"promise!"

Yang Wanli responded, and immediately called the Huren Army soldiers back to work at the three gate towers.

At this time, Wu Liang turned around and said to the remaining backbone of the Huan army: "We can't pin all our hopes on the three gate towers. From our point of view, everything in this secret realm may be the key to our escape. The clues to go, the lock dragon pillar and the possible ancient tomb are no exception, so taking advantage of Yang Wanli's time to lead people to repair the gate tower, I decided to look for this clue and continue to investigate, do you have any different opinions?"

"..."

Everyone in the Huanren Army didn't speak, but they obviously had no idea, and finally shook their heads.

Seeing that everyone had no objections, Wu Liang looked at Yu Ji and said, "In that case, old man, I need to ask you one more thing."

"Sir, please speak."

Yu Ji said quickly.

"You said that there might have been an innate dragon vein here before, and the lock dragon pillar was fixed on the Fengshui point to cut off the earth's energy, so from what you can see, if there is no lock dragon pillar, someone wants to build it in this innate dragon vein Ancestral grave, what is the most suitable location for the acupuncture points?"

Wu Liang asked.

"Returning to your son, this place has now become a dead dragon pattern. Even if there is no dragon lock pillar, it is still a dead dragon... That is to say, this place was affected by the dragon lock pillar before, and the topography and landforms have already changed after thousands of years. Therefore, although the old man conjectured that this place might have been a congenital dragon vein, he couldn't even tell what kind of dragon it was originally, so he really couldn't find the best acupuncture point."

Yu Ji suddenly frowned and said helplessly, "But the location of the lock dragon pillar is to cut off the confidence, and the location of the tomb is to choose the place with the most confidence to bathe in the earth's energy, so the distance between the two should not be too small. If it’s too far away, the young master can follow this rule to find the ancient tomb.”

"In this way, if there really is an ancient tomb in this place, it should probably be below here..."

Wu Liang raised his finger and pointed to the riverbed where Suolongzhu was located where a lot of silt had accumulated.

Now, although Wu Liang used the water control technique to divert the course of the Yellow River and completely exposed the riverbed in this area, the large amount of silt and river sand on the riverbed was still difficult to deal with.

This is definitely a big project. There is no large-scale construction machinery in this era, and the accompanying soldiers of the Huren army are very limited this time. It is simply an impossible task to assign people to repair the three gate towers.

at the same time.

This place has been the mouth of the Yellow River for many years, that is to say, even if there is an ancient tomb here, it has been soaked in the river water for many years.

Usually, ancient tombs are built of earth and stone.

This kind of building method is generally waterproof, and ordinary rainwater is naturally impenetrable, but if it is directly submerged by a flood, especially for a long time, the river water will definitely seep into it and turn it into a permeable tomb.

One advantage of the water-permeable tomb is that many things in the tomb that will not be damaged by water can be preserved intact, and at the same time, it can also play a role in preventing theft to the greatest extent, just like the tomb of Haihunhou discovered by later generations.

But at the same time, for the Huan army, the difficulty of excavation has undoubtedly become greater.

Fortunately, Wu Liang's current water control technique is extraordinary, and he should be able to easily drain the water that penetrated into the tomb...

But Rao is so.

It is still very difficult to enter this riverbed to search for the lock dragon pillar, and to find possible ancient tombs nearby. The silt alone is enough to make it difficult for Wu Liang and others, even in places where the silt is thicker. Convenience is no different from a swamp, if you walk on it carelessly, you will be sucked in and suffocated.

"That's right, young master, are you planning to go down and investigate?"

Yu Ji nodded, but asked worriedly, obviously he had already seen the horror of this riverbed.

"Don't rush."

Wu Liang shook his head rationally and said, "Remember this matter for the time being, while Yang Wanli is leading people to repair the gatehouse, and let the water on the river bed dry up again, let's check the current situation of this river island first. , at least we should figure out whether it will continue to collapse and collapse for the time being, so we can make preparations in advance.”

As for whether Yinglong's remaining energy can still support this secret realm... Wu Liang said that he was really helpless in this matter, and could only do his best to obey the destiny.

……

Soon after.

Wu Liang and the others came to the crack that ran through the entire Hexin Island again. The ground did not feel any earthquake, and the crack did not continue to expand.

In addition, the river water that had almost filled the cracks also flowed almost, presenting the situation inside the cracks.

It's a pity that the crack is too deep.

Wu Liang took safety measures and poked his head out from the edge of the crack to look around, but he could only see a few tens of meters below the crack, and beyond that was a mysterious and unknown darkness.

"call--"

Wu Liang heard the faint sound of wind in the hall.

The strong wind was gushing from the cracks from bottom to top, blowing Wu Liang so hard that he couldn't open his eyes, his nostrils were filled with a strong river smell, which was the smell brought by the draft.

There is nothing unusual about these for the time being.

But Wu Liang didn't give up, and continued to lead the crowd along the crack to investigate, and within a hundred feet, he had to poke his head out to check the situation in the crack.

In this way, when he came to the vicinity of the tiankeng that was also divided into two by the crack.

Wu Liang finally saw something different in the crack. It was the skeleton of the Yinglong. It was placed in the mid-air of the crack, and the bones of the two wings just touched the rock wall to form a delicate shape. The balance of the dragon made the skeleton of Yinglong not continue to fall.

And it was the bones of these two wings that supported the whole set of Yinglong's skeleton, which made it just show the heroic posture of facing the purple sky thunder before.

If Wu Liang hadn't known that its energy was about to be exhausted, he might have thought it was going to rise up again.

"call--"

There was another strong wind blowing, and this pair of Yinglong skeletons swayed back and forth with the wind, like a huge skeleton swing...

……

Several hours passed.

Wu Liang didn't find any valuable clues in this crack, so he had to turn his attention to the low-lying riverbed outside the river island.

Compared with before, the remaining water on the current river bed has flowed or seeped a lot.

Looking around, there are almost no relatively large puddles, and some of the slightly higher riverbeds that have been exposed for a long time have even appeared on the surface of a small number of dry and small cracks like spider webs.

The work of repairing the gatehouse by Yang Wanli is still going on. They have already put together some large pieces of rubble, but there is no way to fix them, and those small pieces of rubble are still being carefully cleaned and put together. It also takes a lot of time.

Therefore, Wu Liang decided to first try to enter the riverbed with Dian and Wei for a simple test.

Before that, there are still some necessary preparations to be done, the most important of which are his and Dian Wei's shoes.

Ordinary shoes certainly cannot walk in the soft and slippery silt, every step will sink into it, not to mention the exhaustion of physical strength, it is estimated that the shoes will not be found after walking a few meters.

Therefore, Wu Liang made two pairs of special shoes with local materials.

To put it bluntly, I found four wooden boards, cut them into the shape of a sled, and then tied them firmly to his and Dian Wei's feet with ropes, and you're done!
To test the viability of this shoe.

Wu Liang took the lead in tying a rope around his waist, moving his steps down to the river bed bit by bit.

One foot stepped on the river bed full of fresh mud, and immediately sank down a section, but it was only a small section. The wide and long wooden board supported his body, and it was really stable. Standing firmly on the surface of the mud.

Wu Liang moved the other foot again, and finally the weight of his entire body stood on the mud, and there was no sign of further subsidence for the time being.

"feasible!"

Wu Liang was delighted.

In this case, he and Dian Wei can cross the riverbed to check around the dragon lock pillar.

Of course, only he and Dian Wei could make it through. Walking in such shoes was very difficult, and also required a lot of physical strength. The rest of the backbone of the Huan army were either old or young or female, and they really didn't have such physical strength.

Besides.

In view of Dian Wei's weight, Wu Liang specially made Dian Wei's shoes to be longer and wider, which made Dian Wei consume more energy every time he took a step. However, he is Dian Wei, and this amount of energy consumption should be Can't help him.

Soon, Wu Liang and Dian Wei set off with such difficulty, moving little by little towards the Suolongzhu, which was a hundred meters away.

"You Wu Taishi's tricks are really endless..."

Looking at the backs of Wu Liang and Dian Wei, Hua Tuo sighed sincerely.

"Where did this go?"

Zhuge Liang smiled indifferently, and said, "There are still many talented brothers who know it. I feel a little humble to say that he is omnipotent."
