Chapter 102 Circular Stone Tomb
"What's wrong?" Zhan Beiyuan asked Jiang Yunxi. He sensed the fluctuations in her body.
"It seemed like something was attracting me from underground. My heart was beating so fast, faster than ever before," Jiang Yunxi said. She had never felt this way before.
"I will arrange for people to dig it up and have a look." Zhan Beiyuan said, his own people were nearby.
"Okay." Jiang Yunxi also wanted to find out.
On the way here just now, Zhan Beiyuan told her the response he got from visiting the families of the deceased during the day. Most of the families said there was nothing unusual.
There were two families who spoke hesitantly.
They said their husband told them that after this, they would be able to make a fortune and provide a good life for their family.
But a few days later, a collapse occurred while they were working and they died.
"Your Highness Prince Han." When the guards saw Zhan Beiyuan coming, they all stepped forward and saluted.
"Have you been here all night?" Zhan Beiyuan asked.
"King Han, there are a lot of materials for building the dam piled up nearby. We have people watching here day and night," said a guard.
Zhan Beiyuan nodded and then blew a unique whistle.
A moment.
A group of people came over in a mighty manner.
Jiang Yunxi looked up and, by the light of the torch, recognized the man in the lead. It was Mu Yuan, the leader who pretended to be a bandit last time.
I didn’t expect Zhan Beiyuan to bring people from the military camp.
She thought he only brought some secret guards.
"Your Highness, Miss Jiang." Mu Yuan walked forward with a smile in his eyes.
"Take your men and grab the digging tools and follow us." Zhan Beiyuan said. It still depends on Jiang Yunxi where to dig.
"Yes." Mu Yuan said respectfully.
Zhan Beiyuan looked at Jiang Yunxi and said, "You lead the way."
Jiang Yunxi nodded and looked at the other guards, "You guys follow with your tools."
"Yes." Although the guards didn't know what to do, since His Royal Highness Prince Han was there, they could only obey orders.
Jiang Yunxi walked towards the dam. The foundation had been laid, but more could be dug next to it.
The closer she got, the faster her heart beat.
"Dig from there." Jiang Yunxi pointed to a place next to the dam. Her intuition told her that there was a way down there.
Mu Yuan took action with a dozen soldiers and guards.
More people means higher efficiency.
"Your Highness, it seems we have dug something up, it's not a coffin..." Mu Yuan looked carefully and found that it was a stone, but not an ordinary stone, because there were patterns carved on it.
Zhan Beiyuan walked over quickly, holding a torch in his hand, and said, "Dig more."
Everyone continued to swing their hoes.
Jiang Yunxi stared at the carved stone with her eyes slightly narrowed. Mu Yuan and his team were digging next to the left side of the dam, and they had only dug about one meter down.
Didn’t the person who built the foundation before dig it up?
Soon a whole upright rectangular stone with complex patterns carved on it was revealed.
"Your Highness, it looks like a stone gate." Mu Yuan said after looking at it for a while.
"Use a hoe to smash it." Zhan Beiyuan said. No one knew where the mechanism was, so it would be faster to break down the door.
"I'll solve it." Jiang Yunxi said.
Just looking at the stone gate, you can tell that there is no ordinary tomb underneath. The patterns on the stone gate are not randomly carved, but a formation. You can open it by finding the right formation eye and pressing it.
Zhan Beiyuan followed her.
Jiang Yunxi walked closer and looked at the intricate patterns. She quickly found the center of the formation, which was a pattern of auspicious clouds. She pressed the cloud hard.
Rumble——
The stone gate slowly moved to the left.
Jiang Yunxi looked at the guards at the government office and said, "You go up there and guard the place. The rest of you, follow me and Prince Han down."
The words fell.
She walked inside.
Zhan Beiyuan held her back and said, "I will go ahead."
"Your Highness, please let me go ahead. I am brave." Mu Yuan smiled and stopped them quickly.
Jiang Yunxi glanced at him, then looked at Zhan Beiyuan and said, "Give him the torch."
Zhan Beiyuan obediently handed the torch to Mu Yuan.
Mu Yuan took it quickly.
He walked in front, followed by five soldiers.
Jiang Yunxi and Zhan Beiyuan walked in the middle, and the remaining soldiers walked at the back.
Mu Yuan sighed as he walked. Both sides were made of stone. This was a complete underground passage. The tomb underground must be very unusual.
It is probably similar to the imperial tomb.
Jiang Yunxi felt her heart pounding wildly. She raised her eyebrows, wanting to see what was inside.
"Your Highness, Miss Jiang, there is another stone door." Mu Yuan stopped. He was now full of curiosity about what was behind the stone door.
The person buried here must be extraordinary.
Otherwise, such a large project would not be undertaken.
Jiang Yunxi walked over quickly. Just like before, there was a formation on the stone gate. Only by breaking the formation could one open it and go in. The people buried here were really particular.
This is to prevent tomb robbery.
I can't break the formation, so I really can't get in. The stone door can't be opened with a hoe, and even internal force can't open it.
She quickly saw the formation on the stone door, and placed her hand on an inconspicuous leaf in the lower left corner. The stone door slowly moved to the left again.
Jiang Yunxi walked in quickly. It was very spacious inside. There was a round stone tomb in front of him, and there was a stone door in front of the tomb.
"Your Highness, there are so many gold, silver and jewelry here." When Mu Yuan approached the stone box beside the wall of the mausoleum, he saw that it was full of valuable things.
The key point is that there are many stone boxes.
Zhan Beiyuan walked over and took a look, with no expression on his face.
"Mu Yuan, you all go back and have some rest. Just come over tomorrow to move these things." Jiang Yunxi said with a smile.
Mu Yuan looked towards Zhan Beiyuan.
Zhan Beiyuan waved his hand.
Mu Yuan immediately left with his soldiers.
Jiang Yunxi slowly looked through the stone boxes. They were all valuable things, but judging from the tomb, they should not be from recent years.
It seems like a long time.
It can still be maintained so well.
When it was first built, a powerful expert must have been hired to arrange it, otherwise tomb robbers would have sneaked in long ago.
"What attracts you?" Zhan Beiyuan was quite curious.
"In this tomb." Jiang Yunxi pointed to the round tomb.
Zhan Beiyuan looked at the stone door with more complicated patterns and said, "Open it and take a look."
"Wait a moment, some people haven't arrived yet." Jiang Yunxi said with a smile.
"Who?" Zhan Beiyuan looked at her in confusion.
Jiang Yunxi glanced at the stone boxes around him. "Someone came in earlier than us. They must be the people who died."
From the moment she opened the first stone door, she was sure that someone had come in.
"Since they came in, why didn't they take the money away?" Zhan Beiyuan raised his eyebrows. Any ordinary person would definitely be tempted when seeing this.
This is human nature.
"What the person who brought them in really wants is in the round tomb. Those people are probably pawns used by the other party to explore the way." Jiang Yunxi said thoughtfully.
The other party opened the two stone doors outside, but this one could not be opened.
Perhaps that person didn't want others to know about this place, so he used some means to make all the people who came in die accidentally.
