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

Lao Hei had no objection and just said: "Let's talk about the snake later. Let's explore the tomb passage first."

"Yes." Hong Wu immediately took out a candle and lit it in the cave.

This action amused Liu Jingfeng's men.

"We all light candles when we open the coffin, why do you light them when you go to the tomb?"

"This is our habit." Hong Wu didn't know how to explain it. "Anyway, if the candle is swaying, it means that the ghost is blowing out the lamp, and we have to leave quickly."

Lin Ran laughed and explained: "Actually, this can be explained scientifically. Light candles in the mausoleum. If the candles are shaking and seem to be extinguished at any time, it means that there is insufficient oxygen in the tomb, and there is a risk of suffocation inside. Leave as soon as possible."

He didn't believe in superstition.

But he also discovered that after rebirth, some things couldn't be explained by common sense.

For example, he had never heard of such a big snake before.

The candle flame was normal and they continued their exploration.

If you look carefully, the Thief Cave is actually not vertically downward, but has a certain slope and slopes downward.

The place where they fought with the big snake just now happened to be the end of the robbery cave.

Continuing forward for a while, there was a fork in the road.

On the left is a stone room with a foul smell coming from inside.

The door was pushed open a crack, and there were many bones inside.

Even a veteran tomb robber couldn't help but feel sick when he saw this scene and almost vomited.

This should be the snake's nest, and there are some bottles at the door of the nest.

There is also a mineral water label on the bottle, which is obviously a contemporary product.

He picked up a bottle and leaned in to smell it.

It turned out to be the smell of realgar.

"It seems that the previous group of people controlled the big snake and entered it." Lin Ran sneered.

"They trapped the snake in the stone chamber, why didn't they just burn it to death?" Wang Jinpeng asked.

As soon as these words came out, Liu Jingfeng and Lao Hei laughed at the same time.

Liu Jingfeng explained: "Snakes are called Yin spirits. Giant snakes that grow in tombs are often considered to have psychic powers. If you kill them, you will get retribution."

"Didn't you kill the snake?" Wang Jinpeng asked.

Lin Ran said calmly: "I killed him, what is there to be afraid of?"

Lao Hei smiled and said nothing, and the atmosphere in the team became much better.

Since there was nothing to explore in the stone house, they set their goal on another section of the fork in the road.

At the end of the fork in the road, there is a stone tablet.

Eight characters are engraved on the stone tablet.

But the words on it have been smoothed away, and the purpose is unknown.

"Is the identity of the tomb owner written on it?" Hong Wu said. He carefully observed the worn words, trying to read the truth from them.

Lin Ran said: "No, this should be an inscription to warn tomb robbers."

A formal tombstone will not be set up so simply, nor will it be located at the door.

Behind the stone monument is another stone chamber.

The group entered the stone chamber and found it empty.

Originally there were several stone tablets inside the stone chamber, but now only the base remains, but the inscriptions on them are missing.

There is no doubt that it was taken away by tomb robbers who arrived first.

Lin Ran thought to himself that this group of tomb robbers looked very professional, whether they were finding the location of the dragon's eye, digging the hole, or controlling the snake.

Didn't they continue to explore after taking away the cultural relics in this stone room?

But no matter how you look at it, it doesn't look like there is a way in here.

It seems that the key lies in the polished monument.

After knocking on the walls inside the stone chamber for a while, no mechanism was found.

The group of them withdrew, and Lao Hei said with some regret: "Oh, I finally understand why the archaeological team is unwilling to accept such an empty check."

"If I see him, I will tear his mouth apart!" Hong Wu also said angrily.

They spent more than 1000 yuan, if only to buy an ear chamber intelligence that had been stolen.

What a shame.

"Brother Lin, is there really no agency here?" Lao Hei asked reluctantly.

Lin Ran hummed and replied: "It seems that there are only two stone chambers here, and there are no other passages."

"That's not right. When you fought the big snake before, you said that the tunnel inside was clear, so the snake was not smoked away." Lao Hei remembered this detail.

Lin Ran was also thinking about this. They lit torches in the tomb, but they were not disturbed at all.

It means that the oxygen concentration inside is sufficient, which is only the case in tombs with passages.

Lin Ran nodded: "Yes, but I discovered something strange."

He pointed to the dents in the wall that had clearly been made by someone else.

The previous tomb robbers also found that there was no road, so they tried to cut holes in the four walls.

It turned out that it was surrounded by solid stone, with no false walls and no possibility of entering the tomb passage. "

Lao Hei obviously couldn't think so deeply and asked: "Isn't this the entrance to the tomb passage?"

Lin Ran thought for a moment.

No, if it was just this tomb, it shouldn't be able to house a big snake.

An idea suddenly came to his mind.

"Let's go back to the snake's den and have a look." If there is a place that the tomb robber can't go to.

That's where they trapped the big snake.

This can also explain that although they have controlled the big snake, it looks particularly miserable inside.

It seems that they also discovered that the real entrance to the tomb passage is in the snake's den!

Placing the entrance at the outermost part of the tomb passage is actually a conspiracy to make the illusion real and the real thing to be false.

As for why this snake could survive for so long, Lin Ran decided to go out and get to know biologists when he had the chance.

He always felt that after his rebirth, some creatures were beyond his imagination.

They returned to the snake den, which was so disgusting that most people were reluctant to go near it.

This is even more uncomfortable than opening the coffin directly.

Lin Ran pinched his nose and walked in.

The ground was covered with human and animal skulls.

He suppressed his nausea and squatted down.

"Why, are you interested in these bones?" Wang Jinpeng was blocking his nose with a tissue at this time, looking extremely funny.

Lin Ran didn't speak, feeling that talking was too disgusting.

He was observing the stone bricks on the ground. The stone bricks were high and low, which was obviously intentional.

If you look carefully, it is the so-called five-element arrangement.

"Jinpeng, can you pry this stone out?" Lin Ran said, pointing to the brick with some pieces of meat stuck to it.

"What are you going to do?" Wang Jinpeng looked disgusted.

It's okay to ask him to do hard work or even block a gun, but if he is asked to touch some unknown meat, he doesn't want to do it at all.

"According to the layout of the five elements bricks, the entrance mechanism of the tomb passage is here."

Hearing that it was the entrance, Wang Jinpeng stopped wasting time and prepared to break bricks.

But before Lao Hei could get to him, he pried open the bricks three times.

A palm-sized copper ring appeared behind the brick.
