Rebirth 81: Being forced into marriage by my sister’s best friend at the beginning

As Lin Ran told them in advance, this place is definitely not as simple as an ordinary Ming Dynasty merchant tomb.

However, although everyone frowned, no one asked to leave.

They focused all their attention on the tomb passage.

Lin Ran took a cursory look at the deceased's condition and found that he probably stopped breathing three days ago.

They all came here, only one step away from surviving, and finally fell.

But Lin Ran felt a little strange. When he died, he was still holding a round stone tightly in his hand. Lin Ran looked at the stone and saw that it was just an ordinary stone.

"It's very possible that he was dominated by hallucinations," Lin Ran said.

It can be seen from his posture that he will not let go until his death. He probably thinks that this stone is worth even more.

If ancient tombs can cause people to hallucinate, then this ancient tomb is definitely not simple. Even if they have rich experience in hallucinating ancient tombs, they cannot guarantee that they can escape unscathed.

The further down you go, the narrower the range of the flashlight's light energy.

There seemed to be strange substances inside that were interfering with the light. Fortunately, they came prepared. Wang Jinpeng had already lit a torch.

The ancient tomb has been ventilated for some time, so it is possible to light a torch.

The light of the flame is essentially different from the light of the flashlight. On the one hand, it can dispel the darkness and illuminate the surrounding; on the other hand, it can also provide a little warmth and give them a sense of security.

By the light of the torch, Lin Ran looked at the stone wall.

The stone walls in this passage were obviously man-made.

But there are some traces of moisture on the ground, like a mine shaft.

Tomb robbing is actually a conspiracy between the wooden group and the tomb robbers.

During his lifetime, the tomb owner would entrust the best craftsmen to set up traps and traps in his tomb to prevent tomb robbers from returning.

And the tomb robbers must find ways to crack the mechanism and obtain the exposed objects in the tomb.

The dead tomb robber in front of you means that the level of craftsmen hired by the owner of this tomb is not average, and they can let the tomb robber die in it. Most ancient tombs cannot actually allow professional tomb robbers to dismember their bodies.

Lin Ran took the torch handed over by Wang Jinpeng and said, "It looks like there should be a big tomb ahead of here."

Being able to design a tomb trap in such a grand way is definitely not something that ordinary nobles can afford.

Zhou Tian and the others were also very bold. Instead of being chased away by the small favors outside, they came directly to the main tomb.

It is estimated that the tomb chamber outside is just a fake tomb, designed to confuse the tomb robbers, so that they can take away some artifacts they think are valuable and then leave. This is equivalent to a favor fee for the tomb robbers.

Originally, they were just emptying out the tomb next to it this Sunday, so there wouldn't be any problems, because they didn't encounter any traps or traps in the corridor they walked through until the tomb.

Going forward from here, things are different.

This is obviously where the real tomb is. Once you go inside, there is no possibility of retreating.

Thinking of this, Lin Ran had a bright idea.

Feeling that it would be dangerous to stay here for too long, they led the team forward and walked deeper underground.

Guan Yun felt that this group of people were too calm. They saw a dead person just now, but they didn't take it to heart at all.

Little did they know that before Wang Jinpeng and the others met Lin Ran, they had seen many dead people in the ancient tombs.

On the contrary, they knew that someone had died here, obviously because there was a large tomb in it, so they seemed a little excited.

As for the person who died was not from their team, there was no point in being sad.

Liu Jingfeng asked in a low voice: "Brother Lin, are you sure this is an ancient tomb from the Tang Dynasty?"

"From a structural point of view, it is so." Lin Ran said, "But."

The next words were not spoken, but they all knew what Lin Ran wanted to say.

This is probably no ordinary ancient tomb, but like the large tomb they encountered before, it is full of some lost technology.

The risk of exploring this kind of ancient tomb is very high.

After experiencing the previous dangers, Liu Jingfeng had some thoughts of trying to stop Lin Ran, but when he thought about Guan Yun saying that none of the archaeological team members were missing, he suppressed his worries.

Because he knew that although Lin Ran didn't say it on the surface, he definitely wanted to rescue the people of the archaeological team.

Continuing forward, the terrain became even lower, just like what Lin Ran encountered in the Yamato Mountain Tomb. In the end, he could only crawl on the ground and crawl forward close to the ground.

Crawling in the narrow cave, everyone felt a little cold inside.

Wang Jinpeng couldn't help complaining: "What did the ancients think? What did they want to do by digging such a small hole?"

With such a narrow hole, it was impossible to put in the accompanying items or transport the coffin.

And looking at the stones above, they don’t look like they were artificially filled.

This also means that this passage was dug out later.

It is very likely that it is not the original corridor, but a hole dug by tomb robbers later, but it is definitely a long time ago.

Lin Ran didn't dare to draw any conclusions and just crawled forward cautiously.

Since there was no way to light a torch in this environment, he could only hold a flashlight and crawl forward.

They crawled like this for nearly a kilometer, and the road ahead gradually began to become smoother.

Slowly, it feels like entering another space. The road that was previously only possible by hunching down can now be done while standing.

"Wait a minute." Lin Ran suddenly reached out his hand to block the others, telling them not to move forward rashly.

Because since learning the secret of treasure appraisal, Lin Ran felt that his sense of smell and hearing had become extremely sensitive.

He could smell a very special fishy smell now.

This is the stench of corpses, but it is not the same as the smell emanating from the corpses of the tomb robbers I saw outside just now. It is a smell that has been decayed for a long time.

In fact, it wasn't just him, Huang Hao also smelled it.

Although Huang Hao is not as good at fighting as Wang Jinpeng, nor is he as proficient in mechanism skills as Master Zhenbao, he has extremely keen observation and a good sense of smell.

"Has the coffin been opened?" Huang Hao sniffed and said.

"Mouse, your dog's nose is really good." Wang Jinpeng also imitated him and sniffed, but other than smelling some damp smell in the air, he felt no other abnormality.

Huang Hao was not in the mood to joke with him. With his many years of experience in going to the tomb, he realized one thing. The end of the tunnel was coming soon.

"It seems, everyone, be careful." Lin Ran reminded everyone, then turned off the flashlight and lit the torch again.

This space is also filled with a substance that prevents the flashlight light from spreading naturally.

Moreover, the space he walked here became obviously much wider. The smell he just smelled was carried by the breeze blowing in his face.

There should be a passage here that can be illuminated with a torch.
