Tomb Raider Gu Tomb Miscellaneous Notes

Among the organs, there is a type of organ called "Hidden Dragon Shuangbi", which uses the characteristics of hollow bricks to place the organs inside the bricks and integrate them with the bricks.

It has two functions. If someone directly damages the brick surface from the outside, the "gate of death" will be triggered, and that person will have to report to Hades.But it also hides another "trap door". If the "trap door" can be triggered without destroying the bricks, the danger can be saved, the mechanism can be safely released, and a secret door can be opened.

Of course, this kind of thing is not something that ordinary people can do, so I heard that when grave robbers encounter this kind of mechanism, they must try to avoid it, or they will definitely die.

Zhang Rui has a unique skill, and later I learned that this unique skill was taught to him behind closed doors by his master, a master-level figure in the Dao Dou world.

"Old Zhen." Zhang Rui shouted, and the white coat immediately came to his side obediently.

I noticed a detail, that is, the subtle tone of Zhang Rui when he called the white coat. I also felt this way when Zhang Rui asked the white coat to check the injury of the incense burner before. This can explain the relationship between the two people .

I vaguely feel that these two people may have known each other for a long time, and there is a distinction between primary and secondary.Originally, Zhang Rui had the airs of a son from a famous family, and he also said that "Boss Zhang" was his elder brother.And the white coat is obviously for "Boss Zhang".

The white coat came to Zhang Rui, took out a leather roll bag, and spread it out. There were many small sockets in it, and blades of different lengths were inserted.

Zhang Rui picked up two pieces with three fingers, and slowly pushed them into the gap between the scales of the wall. The thin blade was gently inserted into the wall, and Zhang Rui's fingers dug out a small piece of wall soil.

If it weren't for his incomparable strength, it would be difficult for ordinary people to move the dusty walls that have been covered for hundreds of years.

There was a small round hole on the wall, which looked like it was drawn with a compass.Zhang Rui put another index finger in through the hole, and then put his ear against the wall, probably listening to the movement in the brick wall.

After about three or five minutes passed, he pulled his finger out.At the same moment, we heard a booming sound from one end of the passage.

Zhang Rui took a look and smiled slightly: "Sure enough."

I looked at the small hole left on the wall, and couldn't help but said: "This kind of 'double wall' has two anti-theft layers inside, and most people can't do anything about it. You broke the mechanism so easily? Or is it actually not The rumors are so powerful?"

Zhang Rui picked up the incense burner and said lightly: "It's not that ordinary people can't do anything about it, but they can't touch the mechanism inside unless they destroy the whole brick."

The white coat came over and patted me, saying: "Xiao Zhang's ten fingers are all treasures. Do you want to learn from him in the future? It will be very useful."

I asked, "How many years has he practiced?"

"Probably... more than ten years, now everything has to start with the baby."

"Then I think it's better to forget it." I said without hesitation.

Zhang Rui looked back at me, his eyes made me feel a little uncomfortable, and said hurriedly: "I'm not picking on your unique knowledge, really."

Zhang Rui smiled: "Come on, the answer you want to know should be in the tomb in front."

We came to the tomb.

The white coat yelled: "Damn it, go around, this time you should see the true face of that old monster!"

I was curious: "What old monster?"

The white coat said mysteriously: "As far as we know, the guy buried here lived to be more than 200 years old when he died. He can still be a god if he isn't an old monster!"

I was a little guilty by what he said, and I always felt that the owner of the tomb was doing so many eerie things, so he must be not a kind person.I also thought about a possibility before, but now that I think about it, I suddenly feel that it may also be true.

As soon as we entered the tomb, our attention was immediately attracted by the jasper coffin in the middle.

The tomb room is not big, and the furnishings are simple, so the presence of such a noble coffin seems very abrupt.

The jade coffin is clear and emerald green, with gorgeous and elegant carvings on the top, colored paintings on the side, and ninety-nine and 81 obsidian inlaid on the coffin lid, which is rich and luxurious.

Those obsidian stones might not be worth much if they were dug up and sold one by one, but if anyone could take out the entire coffin slab, the price would probably be sky-high.

This should also be the reason why the tomb robbers who had been here before hated it, but still let it stay here helplessly.

For we immediately discovered that there was a sudden hole in one wall of the tomb.

The white coat scolded: "Damn, there is a robbery hole!" Immediately afterwards, the expressions of Zhang Rui and Cao Pitou also changed slightly.

I don't know if the hole was dug before the incense burner, or if someone has been here earlier than him. In short, Zhang Rui and the others must be very annoyed to be caught first, and these have nothing to do with me.

I saw that one end of the jade coffin was not carved, but engraved with words, so I walked over.When I saw the birthday name of the owner of the coffin engraved on it, I was shocked!

If the above inscription is true, then this person lived to be 210 years old!Moreover, he is a very famous figure in history, if I write his name, anyone who has read high school history will know it.And in the last line, I saw this person's posthumous title "King Qi Ming".

It turns out that the body of "King Qi" is not in the circular tomb, but here!

Come to think of it, King Qi... No, it should be said that the emperor who moved King Qi's coffin to the tomb was the one who was really afraid that others would find King Qi's body, so he designed so many puzzles, and put the real coffin in the tomb. In such a simple tomb.

In this way, is there any ulterior secret on the corpse?

No, this King Qi itself is a mystery.I also finally understood why there are so many evil things in the tomb, because King Qi himself is very evil.

Staring at the words on the jade coffin, I couldn't help feeling chills down my spine, and pulled my white coat: "This man...how could he live so long, and, besides, it's—"

The white coat said: "Whether it's true or not, we don't know for sure, and it's impossible to take a time shuttle to the Ming Dynasty to take a look. But if it's him here, then the history of the Ming Dynasty, tsk tsk, there's no way to know what's hidden in it." How many secrets have been revealed, archaeologists may turn into a white-haired witch overnight!"

I nodded in agreement, and stepped back involuntarily.Zhang Rui and the others were about to open the coffin, but I suddenly didn't want to see the ancient corpse inside.

At this time, the white coat suddenly smiled strangely: "Do you know why we robbed this person's tomb?"

I shook my head.

The white coat said: "This man has been fighting all his life, but he only wanted one thing."

"what?"

"Phoenix Nirvana."

"Huh?" I don't know why.

"Do you know what 'Phoenix Nirvana' represents?" The white coat asked ostentatiously. I naturally knew it, but seeing his eagerness to show off, I shook my head pretending to be ignorant, and expressed my eagerness for his advice.

He shook his head and said with emotion, "Phoenix Nirvana. In Buddhism, it is said that the phoenix gets eternal life in the fire. This old guy has been looking for the secret of immortality all his life. I don't know if you have noticed that there are many symbols in this tomb. Symbols, all symbolize immortality."

The Phoenix was reborn from the ashes.

After hearing what the white coat said, I couldn't help but think of the story told by Shen Er. At the end, Shen Qianjiu died in the tomb. I don't know if it has something to do with it.Maybe the two have nothing to do with each other, but I have a vague feeling that they might be.

The white coat continued: "The Zhang family has a secret book, which records that something like 'Phoenix Nirvana' did appear in history, and the way to live forever is engraved on that thing. 'Phoenix Nirvana' was found in an ancient tomb, and Tuo Yang was brought out, otherwise how could he have lived so long."

"Do you believe in this kind of thing?" I frowned, and suddenly felt a little disgusted, "Could it be that you also want to find a way to live forever?"

"There is nothing in the world that can live forever. If you violate the laws of creation, you will be condemned by heaven."

A low, cold voice sounded, and I saw that the incense burner had woken up at some point, and was walking towards us staggeringly.

When he came to us, his face was very bad, and he seemed to be very weak. I wanted to help him, but he waved his hand and refused.

The incense burner glanced coldly at the jasper coffin, and said to the white coat: "I told you that you wouldn't want what's inside. Although it's the rubbings, it's useless to you."

The white coat laughed and said, "Xiao Zhang won't cry when he sees the coffin, so let him see it with his own eyes and die."

I resented and said, "I can't see that he wants to get a way to live forever?" At the same time, I don't think Zhang Rui is like this kind of person, even though I don't know him very well.

"What he wants is not immortality, nor is it the appearance of a phoenix nirvana." The white coat touched the pocket of his clothes, and his expression seemed a little melancholy. It was related to the event, his sister participated in the fight, and later died for no apparent reason. What Xiao Zhang wants is an answer."

I don't understand: "Since it's an inverted fight, is it common to die strangely in ancient tombs?"

The white coat shook his head and sighed: "Oh, I can't explain this to you in a few words, but it has nothing to do with you, so just pretend you didn't hear me. Damn, I really want to smoke a cigarette, alas!"

I asked, "Old Bai, what are you doing?"

The white coat was stunned, his expression changed slightly, he laughed and said, "I'm just a wage earner, and I can't help myself. But I said, little brother, why are you so curious? You have to get to the bottom of everyone, I wish I could investigate the genealogy of the ancestors one by one, you are not picking a daughter-in-law!"

The dog in the white coat couldn't spit out ivory. I gave him an annoyed look and turned my head.I looked around but couldn't find him.

Zhang Rui and the others successfully opened the coffin, and there was a heavy wooden coffin inside. The white coat also went to help, and I squatted on the ground to rest.

A few of them worked hard, and each of them had a gloomy and nervous look on their faces. Zhang Rui instructed everyone to take measures to prevent the corpse from changing.

After the coffin nails were pulled out, the white coat and the turf head retreated a little. Zhang Rui took the gun in the white coat, knocked the gun head in a few inches, and then pulled it down. The coffin lid popped up with a "click", A large amount of air suddenly leaked into the sealed coffin, and the air pressure inside and outside flowed, making a harsh hissing sound.

All three of them frowned and looked in. I was seduced by their expressions, and I couldn't help being curious, so I got up and went over to join in the fun.

And I didn't expect the incense burner to be at one end of the coffin, which is the end of the ancient corpse's head.

The ancient corpse in the coffin is very well preserved.In the Ming Dynasty, he was buried with complicated etiquette. He was buried as a prince and conferred with a first-class prince. Naturally, he was dressed in brocade clothes and a jade belt. He was imprisoned, but later received a lot of favor from the emperor when he was buried in a grand manner.

The corpse has not completely decomposed, as if soaked in antiseptic potion, the skin is wrinkled, but the face of this person can still be vaguely recognized.

There are also many gold, silver and jade objects that were put into the coffin, but I know that these are not enough to catch Zhang Rui's eyes.

At this time, Cao Pitou stretched out his hand, but suddenly stopped, looking at the incense burner with lingering fear.What he meant was: I dare not touch it, but you are experienced, please go first.

The incense burner frowned slightly, stared at the ancient corpse for a while, then supported the ancient corpse's head with his hands, and snapped the lower jaw, the action was crisp.The ancient corpse opened its mouth, and we saw a piece of jade under the mouth and tongue, as bright as blood and very transparent.

The ancients buried a piece of jade in the mouth of the corpse. Not only was it believed that jade could absorb the energy of the corpse to prevent the corpse from changing, but it was also said to have the effect of preventing the corpse from decomposing.This is the first time for me to witness this ancient formula with my own eyes, and I am very curious about the reason behind it.

But ever since they mixed with the incense burner and entered this ancient tomb, the reason often doesn't make sense.

Cao Pitou took a deep breath, his pupils sparkled, and he reached out to touch the piece of jade. Zhang Rui suddenly grabbed his hand, and said coldly, "Jiang Lao Liu, you don't need to continue your play."

His words sounded like a round and heavy beating of a timpani drum, which rang out with a thud, lifting the nerves of all of us.
