The fat man took out the engineer shovel from his backpack and gave it to Feng Yuanqing and Hu Bayi, and stuffed the black donkey hoof to Yingzi.

Yingzi had never seen a black donkey hoof, so she asked curiously,"What is this?"

"This is a black donkey hoof, it is used to ward off evil spirits." said the fat man.

"I got it from the old village chief, and there's also glutinous rice." The fat man patted his backpack proudly and said

"You wait, let me check if there is any trap ahead."

Then he put the flashlight in his mouth, took out the rope, threw one end to the ground in the corridor ahead, and pulled it hard to hit the ground.

"Well, no need to try, someone has already explored it, there is no trap."Feng Yuanqing said

""Well, it's better to be careful." The fat man nodded and said.

Several people walked to the stone gate.

Under the light of the flashlight, the patterns carved on the stone gate were clearly visible.

In the center of the stone gate was carved a pattern of an animal head with two eyes wide open, which served as a door knocker.

The stone gate had been pushed half open, and some gravel was scattered on the ground. It seemed that no one had been here for decades.

A thick layer of dust had been spread on the ground.

Passing through the stone gate and going down the steps at the door.

A line of gray words appeared in front of Feng Yuanqing's eyes, which was clearly visible even in the dark.

"Enter the check-in location, do you want to sign in?"

The system finally responded.

"Sign in!" Feng Yuanqing said silently in his heart.

"Sign in successfully and get a copy of"Golden Light Mantra"!"

""The Mysterious Sect of Heaven and Earth, the root of all Qi, has cultivated for billions of kalpas to prove my supernatural powers."

It comes from a certain alien world and is a very powerful Xuanmen orthodoxy.

I came to the center of the tomb.

There was a stone platform in the center, and no coffin was seen.

The tomb was pitch black, and there was no other light except the light of the flashlight.

The flashlight swept everywhere.

"Ah!"

Suddenly Yingzi screamed.

Everyone looked in the direction Yingzi was going. It turned out to be a relief mural.

The characters in the painting looked ferocious, like evil spirits from hell, with green faces and fangs, and hideous faces.

"Don't be afraid, it's just a mural."Hu Bayi comforted him immediately.

Several people walked to the mural.

With the flashlight shining, the whole mural appeared before their eyes.

There were several figures in the mural, one of whom looked tall and mighty, while the others were hideous and ugly.

"This should be the tomb owner." Hu Bayi pointed at the tall and mighty figure with a flashlight and said

"This mural probably describes the scene of the tomb owner fighting on the battlefield."

"This one is a scene of victory and triumph."Hu Bayi said as he walked to another mural.

Then he looked at several other murals, including hunting in the forest, drinking, going to war, escorting prisoners, and being promoted to a noble title.

"It seems that this should be a general's tomb."Yingzi said thoughtfully.

Between the murals was the entrance to the side room. While the others were checking the murals, the fat man ran directly into the side room. There were indeed things inside, quite a lot. Without taking a closer look, he ran out again.

""Master Feng, Old Hu, come and see." Fatty ran out of the side room and shouted excitedly.

Feng Yuanqing, Hu Bayi and Yingzi heard the fat man's shouting and also entered the side room.

There were a large number of weapons, shields, and many pottery jars placed inside.

"What a poor general! He was buried with nothing but scraps of copper and iron!" The fat man picked up a weapon, looked at it, and threw it on the ground.

"What is that?"Yingzi asked with a trembling voice.

Yingzi's flashlight shone on the ground, where there was a skeleton.

"Could it be a dinosaur?"The fat man's train of thought is somewhat strange.

"Dinosaurs have been extinct for billions of years. Are there still dinosaurs? I'm still giving up my pears." Hu Bayi said angrily.

"This is the warhorse buried with the general!"

Everyone looked around the tomb and found a huge, heavy mace. This should be the weapon of the tomb owner.

"You said, how come there is not even a coffin in this tomb?" Yingzi asked curiously.

"Could it be that the tomb robbers before them stole everything?" The fat man thought for a moment and said

"Fatty, you're overthinking it. The cave entrance is so small, how can the coffin be moved out?" Feng Yuanqing said with a smile.

Back to the main tomb chamber

"A mechanism was built here to hide the coffin. Who would build a useless stone platform in the middle of the tomb? It seems that the coffin is hidden under the stone platform!"Feng Yuanqing said while looking at the stone platform. According to the plot of the TV series version of the original novel, Feng Yuanqing searched on the ground opposite the door of the tomb on the stone platform.

Hu Bayi carefully searched on the wall and found a protruding stone brick that looked like a mechanism.

The fat man followed Hu Bayi and directly reached out to press the stone brick. After waiting for a while, no mechanism was triggered.

So the fat man ran to the other side of the mural and pressed the same stone brick.

Unexpectedly, the mechanism was triggered this time. A sound of mechanism came out.

""Get down!" Hu Bayi shouted, and at the same time, he pressed Yingzi and fell to the ground together.

Upon hearing this, the fat man immediately fell to the ground. Feng Yuanqing noticed when the mechanism started, and immediately ran to the corner and lay down.

Countless hidden arrows shot from all directions in the west, crackling.

Fortunately, everyone was safe and sound, and no one was hurt by the hidden arrows.

The ground and the walls were pitted, and the poison on the arrows corroded small pits.

I didn't expect that after thousands of years, the mechanism in the ancient tomb was still rotten and could still be started normally.

After all, this is not a normal world, but a world with mysterious power.

"Fatty, I told you to be careful, but you still pressed it. Now you are at a disadvantage, right?"Feng Yuanqing said with a smile.

"Oh, it's my fault for having to press the button. Fortunately, everyone is fine."The fat man was a little embarrassed.

"I have found the agency��"Feng Yuanqing said.

He walked to the direction facing the tomb door, where there was a small stone horse statue on the ground.

Feng Yuanqing put his palm on the horse's head and pressed hard.

But a sound of a mechanism turning came from the stone platform in the middle of the tomb.

The stone platform sank, and a huge golden nanmu coffin slowly rose.

The fat man wanted to open the coffin, but was stopped by Hu Bayi.

Hu Bayi took out the compass and found the southeast direction.

He lit a candle.

"People light candles, ghosts blow out the lights"

"This is the rule passed down by the older generation. Every tomb raider will abide by it."

"Whenever the coffin is opened, a candle must be lit in the southeast corner of the tomb. If the candle goes out, all the items must be returned, and kowtow respectfully several times before leaving immediately."

"This is a contract between the living and the dead."

Hu Bayi explained to everyone.

Feng Yuanqing certainly didn't need this.

But for Hu Bayi, this was a necessary ceremony and also a famous scene.
