Chapter 330: Exploring the Ancient Tomb in Fengyang Village
After investigation, it was learned that there was a town two kilometers away from Fengyang Village, so Gu Ning decided to book a room in that town and park the car there.
After Gu Ning shared his idea with Leng Shaoting, Leng Shaoting also expressed his agreement.
Fengyang Village is just outside the capital, but because the capital is relatively large, it takes about an hour and a half to get to the town. Then, if Gu Ning and Leng Shaoting walk from the town to Fengyang Village, they will arrive within 20 minutes.
Therefore, Gu Ning planned to set off at four o'clock, and arrived in town at half past five, which was exactly time for dinner.
In winter, it’s almost dark at six o’clock, so it’s just right after dinner.
There are still two hours left, which is enough time for them to prepare some necessary tools and food.
Fengyang Village is surrounded by mountains, so it is impossible for them to find it the first time they go there. If they are lucky, they may be able to find it in a few hours, but if they are unlucky, they may not be able to find it even after several days.
And in order not to attract attention, they naturally couldn't ask the villagers.
Of course, no matter whether they can find it or not, they must return to the capital tomorrow night.
Gu Ning's space contains a lot of tools and food, but it is not convenient to use. She still doesn't want Leng Shaoting to know her secret.
Now, Gu Ning still can't figure out what the situation is with the tomb, whether it was discovered only by a few individuals or by the majority of people.
However, the fact that those people were able to receive these bronze artifacts to sell means that the tomb has not been discovered by the country. If it had been discovered, it would have been immediately sealed and allowed the national archaeological team to conduct excavation.
However, this tomb is filled with negative energy, and if those so-called experts come, they will not end up in any good situation.
She asked Leng Shaoting to come with her, and naturally, when they went in, she would give him a night-shining pearl to protect his body, so that the evil spirit would not have any effect on him.
Of course, that's assuming they find the tomb first.
Two hours later, Gu Ning and Leng Shaoting arrived at the town closest to Fengyang Village. They booked a hotel, parked the car, and then went to eat.
After dinner, it was almost half past six and it was completely dark, and then the two set off.
In less than twenty minutes, Gu Ning and Leng Shaoting arrived at Fengyang Village. It was pitch black everywhere. No matter how good Gu Ning's eyesight was, he could only vaguely see where the mountains and the roads were.
Gu Ning looked at the mountains around her and didn't know where to start! It was so far away and she couldn't see through it.
But even if he couldn't, Gu Ning still tried it, turned on the perspective, and scanned the surrounding mountains.
It’s a pity that the distance she can see is limited. She can only see the mountains within two hundred meters, and cannot see the mountains in the distance at all.
However, at this moment, Gu Ning and Leng Shaoting heard a car coming. In order not to be discovered, Gu Ning and Leng Shaoting immediately hid in the bushes on the side of the road.
A van stopped at the intersection of Fengyang Village, and four people got out, each carrying a large bag.
"Hurry up, be careful, don't get discovered." said one person.
Upon hearing this, Gu Ning and Leng Shaoting knew that their motives were not pure, and they began to suspect that these people might be tomb robbers.
Gu Ning immediately turned on the perspective and looked at the other party's backpack. The backpack was full of tools, such as iron picks, Luoyang shovels, etc., which were all tools used for tomb robbing.
As the four men left, the van also left.
"Let's follow them," Gu Ning said. Leng Shaoting nodded in agreement, and then the two of them quietly followed the four people.
Half an hour later, the group reached the halfway point of a mountain, and the four people had not noticed that they were being followed. Of course, Gu Ning and Leng Shaoting were not too close, and their movements were very quiet, so it was normal that they did not notice.
Then, he stopped in front of a rather steep rock wall and lifted up some grass, then a hole was revealed. That hole was the so-called thief's hole.
The men secured the ropes and slid down.
After those people had gone in for a while, Gu Ning and Leng Shaoting finally came to the cave entrance, but they were not in a hurry to go in. Gu Ning first looked through the situation below to see how deep the cave was and where those people were. If he rushed down, he would definitely bump into them.
The cave was about 20 meters deep, and below the cave entrance was a tomb passage. About three or four meters away from the tomb passage, there was an annex chamber, about ten square meters in size, with four coffins in the annex chamber, and the lids of the four coffins had been opened. Gu Ning could not see the others clearly.
Those people had already walked to that atrium, but did not stay there because they had already stolen the things there, so they were walking towards other atria.
Of course, you can't just enter the other ear chambers.
From the antiques that have been found, we can guess that the owner of this tomb must be of high status, so the door of the ear chamber must have either a mechanism or something like poison powder.
Yes, the four men came to an ear chamber, but they did not dare to go in directly. Instead, they observed the surrounding situation first and went in only after they were sure there was no danger.
At this time, Gu Ning and Leng Shaoting could go down, but before going down, Gu Ning took out the night-shining pearl. Gu Ning did not show the whole night-shining pearl, because he was afraid that it would be discovered if it emitted a bright light, so he only showed the faint light between his fingers.
"Here." Gu Ning handed the Night Pearl to Leng Shaoting: "This is the Night Pearl, take this and use it to illuminate."
Gu Ning couldn't explain the matter of Yin energy and spiritual energy, so he could only say this. However, lighting up with the night pearl is indeed a good choice.
"Night Pearl" Leng Shaoting was surprised when he heard this. He didn't expect that Gu Ning had such a precious thing on him.
However, Leng Shaoting did not ask any more questions and took the night pearl.
Because the night pearl's light was too bright and would easily attract those people, Gu Ning asked Leng Shaoting to hold it as well, just to let a little light leak out.
Then he put on gloves, grabbed the rope, and slid down.
Go down to the tomb passage and walk towards the ear chamber.
Soon, the two arrived at the looted ear chamber and understood the situation inside.
The ear chamber was in a mess. In each of the four coffins lay a blackened skeleton covered with some armor, which should be the people buried with the dead.
Just as Gu Ning was about to turn on the perspective to track the situation of the four people, several shrill screams suddenly rang out, followed by messy footsteps.
Gu Ning and Leng Shaoting secretly cried out that it was not good, and immediately walked out of the ear chamber, and saw four people running out in a row. When the person running in front suddenly saw two figures standing in the tomb passage, he was so scared that he stopped walking, and then the person running behind was caught off guard and did not stop, but bumped into them directly, and then the group of people fell directly to the ground.
However, the dangerous situation made them unable to care about anything else, and they quickly rolled over and crawled up. Then, other people who had not seen Gu Ning and Leng Shaoting also saw them and were shocked.
