"Senior, are you saying that there may be other passages behind this stone door?" Chen Ze asked Yang Tieniu.

"It's possible, but we can't open this door." Yang Tieniu said.

"If we can't open it, we'll think of a way!" Chen Ze was optimistic. After all, he had X-ray vision. If it really didn't work, he could just pass through.

Yang Tieniu shook his head. "That's not right. What if the tomb collapses after you leave? We'll all be finished then!"

"Well, what should we do?" Chen Ze was also a little panicked.

Yang Tieniu thought for a moment and said, "Why don't we try to blow open the door with explosives!"

"Use explosives? So expensive!" Chen Ze exclaimed.

"This is all the money we have here. I have explosives, and I can take you to buy some!"

Chen Ze was helpless. He had no other choice but to follow Yang Tieniu to sell bombs.

Yang Tieniu led Chen Ze around the tomb passage and walked to the back of the tomb chamber, and then Yang Tieniu buried the bomb underground.

After burying the explosives, the two waited quietly, during which time Yang Tieniu gave Chen Ze a cigarette.

Chen Ze was smoking a cigarette, with all kinds of thoughts flashing through his mind. Since this was an ancient tomb, there must be burial objects. Unfortunately, Chen Ze had no tools with him now.

"Huh?" Chen Ze stared at the ground beneath his feet thoughtfully.

Yang Tieniu: "What's wrong?"

"Senior, look here, I just found that the soil here is showing signs of loosening!" Chen Ze said, pointing to the place where he had just stepped.

Yang Tieniu: "Oh! That means you stepped on something, and then caused the soil to change. This is the principle of the formation. The so-called secret of the formation is to use the changes in the surrounding environment as the target of attack. These are what I learned from the "Five Elements and Eight Diagrams". Now the owner of this tomb must also know this principle."

"So, senior, the mechanism of this tomb does not allow you to find a way out by just staying here. There are higher-level tests hidden here!" said Chen Ze.

"You are right. The owner of this tomb is very smart. This should be the last checkpoint of the tomb. I believe your previous speculation will not be wrong, so you have to be careful about what happens next." Yang Tieniu reminded.

Chen Ze nodded.

Chen Ze took out a flashlight and prepared to explore the tomb again.

Chen Ze followed the previous steps, first walked into a tomb chamber, then turned around and left the tomb chamber. After repeating this several times, Chen Ze finally figured out the rules inside the tomb chamber.

Yang Tieniu was silently recording every step and detail of Chen Ze, while analyzing whether this was some kind of hint of the tomb.

Half an hour later, Chen Ze had successfully walked out of the tomb.

"Senior, we are out." Chen Ze shouted.

"Yeah!" Yang Tieniu responded, but his face was full of confusion. Yang Tieniu was thinking about what Chen Ze had just done.

When Chen Ze called him, Yang Tieniu's attention was drawn back, "Senior, are we safe?"

"It's safe!"

"Yeah~ Let's go. I'm starving." Chen Ze said.

The two walked for a long distance, one in front of the other, before they arrived at a palace.

Yang Tieniu took Chen Ze into the palace. "The place we are going to is called 'Longxing Hall'. There are many terracotta warriors and horses, statues of generals, and a huge bronze tripod. There is mercury in the bronze tripod. As long as we break the mercury in the bronze tripod, the tomb will be cracked."

"Senior, are you a professional demolition team member?" Chen Ze asked curiously.

Yang Tieniu rolled his eyes at Chen Ze and said, "I am a researcher and I attach great importance to the protection of ancient cultural relics. Don't underestimate our tomb because it is simple. In fact, the things inside are priceless treasures."

"Oh, then are there gold, silver and jewelry in this Longxing Hall?" Chen Ze continued to ask.

Yang Tieniu rolled his eyes and said, "Do you think there's an antique shop in Longxing Hall, with gold, silver and jewelry?"

"Oh! That's fine." Chen Ze said disappointedly. Although the materials of these ancient terracotta warriors are very special, they are useless if there is no gold, silver or jewelry. After all, these do not belong to Chen Ze, and Chen Ze does not like them.

The two walked along the stairs to the end. On the wall at the end was a couplet: "One day of marriage is a hundred days of grace. Why should we forget each other?"

Yang Tieniu took a look and no longer wanted to linger, so he walked over and pushed open the door.

Chen Ze nervously followed Yang Tieniu into the room.

Chen Ze followed Yang Tieniu into a dark corridor. This corridor was exactly the same as the one Chen Ze encountered last time, but this time the two did not choose to retreat, because Chen Ze knew that once he retreated, there would be no hope of getting out.

Soon, Chen Ze and Yang Tieniu came to a wide square. Chen Ze looked around carefully and did not see anyone.

"This should be the main tomb chamber." Yang Tieniu said.

Chen Ze nodded, "So what should we do now? We can't just stand here like idiots, right?"

"This is a maze. How can we find a way out?" Yang Tieniu looked at the surrounding architectural styles and layouts.

"There is a mechanism here."

Chen Ze suddenly spoke.

"Mechanism?" Yang Tieniu immediately became alert when he heard it.

"Yes, I saw it." Chen Ze pointed to the pillar on the right.

Upon hearing this, Yang Tieniu walked over and found that the pillar was actually a stone slab.

"Crack!"

"Boom!"

Just as Yang Tieniu reached out and touched the stone slab, the entire stone chamber began to shake.

"What's going on?" Yang Tieniu was shocked.

Seeing this, Chen Ze hurriedly ran to Yang Tieniu's side, and the two of them hugged each other. Yang Tieniu's expression was solemn, as if he felt threatened.

"Roar!" At this moment, a low roar resounded throughout the stone chamber.

Yang Tieniu held the hilt of the knife with both hands and chopped it hard at the stone wall. Suddenly, the entire tomb shook violently.

"Crash..." As Yang Tieniu moved, the soil on the top of the entire tomb fell down, as if the sky was falling and the earth was splitting, and it became more and more intense, as if it might collapse at any time.

Yang Tieniu gritted his teeth, pulled out the knife that was stuck in the stone wall, and swung it down again. A deep groove was formed instantly and was still spreading.

Chen Ze quickly hugged Yang Tieniu's waist and said, "Stop hitting me, stop now!"

"Roar——" Before Chen Ze finished his words, another low roar was heard, accompanied by the sound of falling stones.

"Bang~" Yang Tieniu, holding a big knife, chopped the stone wall with all his might, and finally carved out a passage in the middle of the stone wall, "Let's go!"

Yang Tieniu grabbed Chen Ze and rushed over.

The moment Chen Ze rushed into the passage, the stone wall collapsed with a loud bang.

"Bang! Bang..." The collapsed stone wall hit the hole that Yang Tieniu had just dug, causing the entire cave to fall into chaos again.

Chen Ze was running in the dark. He didn't even dare to open his eyes, for fear that he would accidentally bump into something and fall or slip.

Fortunately, Chen Ze had good luck. Although he was a little out of breath, he didn't bump into anything.

"Ah! Help!"

At this moment, Chen Ze heard a woman's sharp scream, and he walked towards the source of the sound. (End of this chapter)
