I pretended to be informal and barely lowered my physique, attempting to make my actions look extra pure. As a substitute of touching the sarcophagus, I secretly put my hand by myself trouser leg and regarded again. It does not matter. A face immediately appeared in entrance of me and checked out my eyes. As everyone knows, probably the most taboo factor in our enterprise is to have a look at the residing and the useless. I rapidly eliminated my eyes, pretended that I did not see something, and continued to behave as if I used to be being attentive to my pants. However I used to be all the time trying round, pondering that if I did not realize it was human It is the ghost that assaults me. I’ve a protection.

Simply as I used to be fascinated about tips on how to cope with it, I used to be immediately patted on the shoulder, after which I heard Zang Wu’s acquainted voice: “what are you dawdling about right here? Do it now!” I used to be in a trance. Seeing that Zang Wu had moved a vase out of the sarcophagus, I rapidly requested the place you had simply gone? Zang Wu put down the vase in his hand, touched my head and mentioned, “are you all proper? I am right here on a regular basis! Do not dawdle. I will inform you, we have a stool as we speak! ” Zang Wu mentioned whereas shifting issues out.

No, I all the time really feel that one thing is mistaken! This man isn’t Zang Wu! After we simply got here in, these sarcophagus had been empty, and Zangwu knew it. Now this individual is unquestionably not Zangwu. Who is that this individual? Is it the person I noticed simply now? It is inconceivable. The person I simply noticed was pale, however there was some blue mild! I checked out Zang Wu increasingly more, and I felt increasingly more mistaken. Zang Wu could not even let go of those vases. Furthermore, these vases are clearly simply appetizers, not what we’re searching for. It is not good for us to take so many issues out rashly. Zangwu should additionally know this fact. I secretly clenched the dagger hidden in my belt and stepped again two steps.

Zang Wu noticed that I stepped again two steps, and the expression on his face was not proper, however he nonetheless did not say something. He was a bit sad and got here near me. I held the dagger tightly. Though I heard 5 faces coming in the direction of me simply now, it was not the identical because the sound of 5 faces coming in the direction of me.

“Why do not you get up?” It is Zang Wu’s voice. Zang Wu additionally patted my face. I opened my eyes and did not dare to imagine the whole lot now, however I noticed Zang Wu’s involved eyes. Properly, this time I shouldn’t be mistaken. Zang Wu’s heat hand patted my face once more. This time, it will not be mistaken. The temperature of Zang Wu’s palm cannot deceive me. Presently, I put down my coronary heart and sat up with Zang Wushun’s hand. “What occurred to me simply now.” I requested, rubbing my head. “I do not know what occurred to you simply now. You had been nice earlier than. All of a sudden you squatted down. I assumed you noticed one thing, so I used to be prepared to come back and ask you. You simply fell down with out being attentive to me. No, I simply woke you up My mind is operating very quick. In line with Zang Wu, he does not see something besides me, and I am the one one who sees these issues. I regarded down and thought, it appears that evidently I had an concept.

Everybody in our enterprise is aware of that we won’t discuss residing folks within the grave, identical to each trade has an expert time period. Working in our enterprise isn’t a time period, however a slang. There is no such thing as a particular phrases, generally even mentioned earlier than going to the grave. Up to now, what I noticed simply now, and what Zang Wu did not see, needs to be a salted fish. After we are older, we won’t name a corpse useless. We are able to solely say that it is a fairy or a pigtail. In our nation, the frequent fish are salted to maintain recent. On this method, the fish are preserved fully. Within the tomb, we started to name the useless physique salted fish. In fact, some locations are additionally referred to as zongzi.

I started to clear my thoughts a bit bit. Once I was squatting down, the ghost was behind me, that’s, it was not parallel to me. As a substitute, she was mendacity on the bottom, or her head was down. After seeing her, I noticed the pretend Zangwu. Why do you see the pretend Zangwu! I give it some thought and do not perceive. Have a look at one another! Yeah, I took a take a look at that rattling factor! It turned out to be an phantasm.

I rapidly grabbed Cangwu and mentioned, “let’s get out of right here and discover Zhao Gao.” Zang Wu noticed my expression and observed one thing mistaken. He nodded, and we went straight over the sarcophagus.

After going out for a very long time, I advised Zangwu intimately what occurred simply now. It is sure that different tomb robbers had are available, however they had been all buried right here and did not exit. If I did not discover out in time that Zangwu was not actual Zangwu simply now, and if I lower it down with a knife, then it’s extremely possible that my knife was both on me or on Zangwu. This evaluation reveals that the salted fish has not been for hundreds of years, but in addition for a whole lot of years, in any other case, it’s inconceivable to straight let me fall into phantasm. Swiftly, each Zang Wu and I felt a bit scared, however we needed to work arduous.

Zang Wu and I might solely transfer on. The extra we walked within the tomb, the colder we felt. It was clear that there was no air outlet round, and it appeared that there was wind blowing from all instructions. Even the careless folks like Zang Wu started to be cautious. I am additionally extra alert. In spite of everything, all of us come right here for the treasures within the tomb, but when human lives are constructed right here, regardless of what number of treasures there are, it is ineffective. Additional on, it turned out to be an extended hall, slim on either side, solely about 1.5 meters large within the center, and the partitions on either side had been carved with varied patterns. Zangwu and I had been additionally far-off, and he was additionally shining a flashlight on the wall, so was I. There is just one hall left in entrance of us. The deepest a part of the hall is a wall. That’s to say, there isn’t any different method for us to move by the wall. If we return, we’ll move the sarcophagus and possibly meet the girl. We will not discover Zhao Gao once we return. Now now we have to discover a solution to move by the wall.I rigorously regarded round, across the prime of the wall and the bottom are carved in a large number of issues, for a second additionally can’t see what it’s in the long run, however look rigorously, however it appears that evidently there’s something in frequent.

Zang Wu could not assist getting offended. “What the hell is that this?” Then he went straight by the hall and smashed the wall. “Wait!” I rapidly stopped Zang Wu. These partitions and flooring, if I am not mistaken, have mechanisms.

“Do not transfer.” I ended Zang Wu, afraid that he would contact the mechanism rigorously, so I rapidly put out my hand in entrance of him. By likelihood, I as soon as noticed in a ebook that the tombs of emperors and official households had organs. Though the organs had not been moved for a whole lot and even hundreds of years, as soon as touched, they’d absolutely die. That is additionally the knowledge of the ancients. So as to stop their tombs from being stolen sooner or later, each era of emperors will discover all types of magicians to design their very own tombs, and the tomb of Zhao Gao that we’re searching for now will definitely have fewer organs.

I squatted down and punctiliously noticed the bricks on the bottom. Each different colour darkened, and every brick had a unique texture route. 4 of them shaped a circle, and additional away, the opposite three bricks shaped a circle with the one subsequent to the earlier one. On this method, the opposite three bricks had been intently linked. On this method, if somebody unintentionally steps on the brick with a mechanism, it’s estimated that it isn’t a bolt by the center. It must also fall right into a lure. Anyway, it needs to be roughly harmful. The portray on the wall appears to be out of order, however should you look rigorously, it appears to be a scene of sacrifice. Amongst them, folks carry torches, some carry sacrificial animals in teams, and others press folks to maneuver ahead. However the unusual factor is that within the work on the wall, the torches in every individual’s fingers are in several instructions, and the torches within the 4 instructions of southeast, northwest and northwest simply type a circle. The middle of every circle on the wall corresponds to the middle of the circle underground. I rapidly took the flashlight and mentioned to Zangwu, “observe me later. I will take a step. You must step on my footprints.” Zang Wu checked out my severe expression and realized the seriousness of the scenario. He nodded and mentioned good day.

I took a flashlight and walked ahead step-by-step. I used to be afraid that if I made a mistake step-by-step, I’d fall into the abyss. Though it is exaggerating, nobody can assure that the ground tile isn’t a forest of swords. Perhaps there are a whole lot of metal knives flashing chilly mild. If I fall down, I’ll die. However I did not anticipate that after I simply took step one, Zang Wu did not meet up with me, however the ground tile underneath my ft moved, and the one underneath my ft moved to the aspect, and put the one which Zang Wu was going to observe my footprints to the aspect, now not the middle. On this method, I do not dare to drag Zang Wu to strive once more. Who is aware of if the brick on the bottom will transfer if Zang Wu steps on it once more. If it does not transfer, then we’re each protected. Naturally, it is the very best. But when Zang Wu steps on it and the bricks do not observe the earlier observe, then we’ll each be useless. Irrespective of it is me or Zang Wu, I am positive You may’t take that threat.

“Zangwei, do not transfer. Maintain on.” I stood on the second brick and mentioned to Zang Wu, for worry that he wouldn’t concentrate and step on the mistaken step.

“Depart me alone, you go first!” Zang Wu waved to me, “we predict there should be somebody right here as we speak. You’re smarter than me. You go first and go to seek out Zhao Gao.”

“How can I throw you right here? Simply relax and hearken to me. You may go wherever I say I used to be apprehensive that Zang Wu wouldn’t hearken to me and make choices with out authorization. Then I rapidly mentioned, “should you inform me as we speak, I can not exit alive on my own!”

“You Properly, how are you going to try this? ” Zang Wu stopped speaking.

I advised Zang Wu to attend for me in the identical place, however I walked rigorously within the middle of every circle. Even when the ground tiles moved, I’d wait till I ended to seek out the middle of the circle, after which go down. On this method, it took about 20 minutes to get to the wall.

“Zang Wu, hearken to me. I will inform you the place to go. If it is OK, you’ll be able to come right here too.” I stood by the wall and mentioned to Zang Wu.

“Sure. I see

“Do you see a circle made up of the 4 ground tiles, and a circle made up of the skin ones? You simply want to seek out the middle of the circle and stroll slowly.”

“Sure.” Zang Wu simply agreed, and I did not converse any extra. I used to be afraid that an excessive amount of would disturb him. Zang Wu would take a relaxation for nearly each step. It took three or 5 minutes for Zang Wu to take the subsequent step after the ground tiles had been moved. It took a very long time, and I could not assist being soaked with sweat. It is the identical with Zang Wu. Some sweat even drips straight from his head to the ground tiles underneath his ft, so that each step he takes, Zang Wu’s ft are all moist.

Lastly, after I received to the wall, I rapidly reached out and dragged Zangwu in, however unexpectedly, Zangwu slackened on the final step and stepped on one other brick.

Zang Wu checked out me nervously. All of a sudden, a rumbling voice got here from the gap. It turned out that the ground tile we got here to was collapsing step-by-step in the identical route. I did not guess mistaken. It was actually a metal knife inserted the other way up, however most of it was rusty due to the age. If it fell down, it might absolutely die due to the gravity, nevertheless it was not There are numerous bones mendacity within the lure under. Certain sufficient, there have been grave robbers right here, however they died right here. But when they died right here, who restored the mechanism right here? Most individuals do not have sufficient power to get better itNow I’ve no time to suppose a lot, as a result of the ground tiles are nonetheless collapsing, however I’ve no panic expression with Zang Wu. Though I can not maintain on in my coronary heart, Zang Wu holds my hand tightly. I can really feel his hand tremble. Once I went all the way down to the tomb, I used to be ready to return. If we had been left right here, it might not be in useless. Simply when Zang Wu and I had been about to despair, the ground tiles immediately stopped collapsing. Zang Wu and I had been near the wall. There was no method out behind me. There was solely about 30 cm of floor underneath my ft. The remainder of the bottom had collapsed.

“What on earth is that this…” Zang Wu’s voice started to tremble. “Why do not we do one thing about this wall? Have a look at what this wall has performed to us.” Tibet might day dare not transfer, however nonetheless a bit offended.

“Do not make hassle. Search for your self. Are you able to break it now?” If there are mechanisms on the bottom and on the wall, if this wall might be damaged if you wish to break it, why do you design these mechanism traps. And now I and Zang Wu are barely in a position to keep on with the wall, there isn’t any further drive to make it out, and they do not know how thick the wall is, so that they smash it open. If the wall breaks open, what’s ready for us on the other aspect.

This wall cannot be so easy. I rapidly requested Zangwu to see the traits of the wall nearer to him. In spite of everything, we won’t transfer now, and he is standing there, so I can not see what’s on the wall subsequent to him.
