The moment the stone gate was opened, father, Bai Hannian, Qin Yan and the other three were very excited and happy, because of the repeated twists and turns, the door of unsolved exploration was finally opened.

They came to the tomb gate and walked in. The tomb passage was built with bluestone bricks as outside. The tomb passage was very spacious, with rows of warrior statues on both sides. These stone statues looked very terrifying at first glance. They were like evil ghosts in hell, with ferocious eyes, and some stone statues looked like living people laughing, giving people a gloomy feeling.

The tomb passage was very long and dark, and I couldn't see the situation inside clearly. My father took a flashlight and couldn't see the bottom at all. He carefully observed the surroundings and did not dare to take any further rashly.

The walls of the tomb passage are also carved with various murals. I don’t know why there are many things similar to tentacles on the wall, which look like they are moving.

My father lit a candle, but the candle was not extinguished for a long time, and the air inside should be very sufficient.

At this time, Bai Hannian said to his father: Liu Siming, what have you been looking for for a long time. It’s so dark and scary. There is no such thing as a trap for organs.

There must be a trap for the mechanism, but now you have to find the lighting first. It’s not enough to rely on flashlights alone, and there are not many flashlight batteries, so you have to save some use.

When her father was talking to Bai Hannian, Qin Yan seemed to have discovered something. She saw that the heads of the stone statues looked a bit like lampshades.

Because the ancients often used human oil or animal oil as eternal lamps, Qin Yan guessed that it must be used as a lamp.

She told her father about this, and her father also felt that the stone statue seemed to be used to light a lamp.

My father walked to the stone statue and touched the head of the stone statue with his hand. He felt the oily liquid. He smelled it a little smelly, and it looked a little like wax oil.

He lit a match and threw it in. After a while, the stone statue lit up and illuminated the surroundings.

Bai Hannian and Qin Yan also imitated their father to ignite the headlights of other stone statues around them, and the tomb passage suddenly became brighter.

No one in a hurry to go in, but opened the Feng Shui Yin and Yang Jue to find the characteristics of the traps of the tomb mechanism. In the Tomb Mechanism Trap chapter on page 26, my father found the characteristics of the traps of the Khitan tombs.

The above said that generally tomb passages will have poisonous arrows, quicksand, and falling rocks. Khitan tombs are good at using dolls, sword arrays, and rolling stones. Dolls will look like living people when activated.

You are also flexible in using crossbow arrows and chasing the tomb robbers with swords. The sword array is a rotating mechanism inside the stone wall, which is filled with blades, so that these blades can rotate back and forth. If a person accidentally falls into the sword array, it will definitely be cut into pieces of flesh.

A rolling stone is a big stone ball that rolls down into the tomb passage and crushes those who steal the tombs to death and those who are chasing the stone ball will definitely have to hang them.

There are usually puzzle mechanisms in the Khitan tomb passage. If you step on it correctly, you can save your life. If you step on it wrong, you will wait to die.

My father also heard from my grandfather that at that time, my grandfather was just in his early 20s, and he went to a Khitan tomb with a group of people who fought against each other. At the beginning, he opened the tomb door smoothly and entered the tomb passage.

The tomb robbers were very eager to get the burial objects in the tomb, so they ran in without caring about the mechanism or not. When they were halfway through, someone stepped on something, and heard a rumbling sound. The walls on both sides flipped over.

A dense short spear head with a thorn leaked out. Grandpa saw that it was not good. Someone triggered the mechanism trap, so he asked the others to lie down.

But those who ran in front of the trigger mechanism were not so lucky. The short spear heads shot out directly, piercing those people to death. They were stabbed like hedgehogs and could not see them at all.

The rest of the people were so scared that they dared not get up. Grandpa was the first to stand up. When they saw that Grandpa had nothing to do, they also stood up.

One of the bearded men said in a storm: Damn, I don’t believe it anymore. Let’s use the big guy in my hand to call the mechanism in the tomb and destroy it.

Grandpa quickly stopped him and said: This is not possible. If the tomb passage is forcibly blown up or destroyed with explosives, the tomb passage will not be able to withstand the collapse, and we will all be buried at that time.

The bearded man said again: What should I do if there is no explosive? I don’t know if there are more traps waiting for us.

Grandpa walked forward slowly with the torch, and the group followed closely behind and walked to the triggering mechanism. Grandpa saw a painting on the ground, which was painted with a Khitan general. The general seemed to have just come down from the battlefield, holding a scimitar in one hand, and not knowing what he was holding in the other hand. There was a square groove in the position of the hand.

Grandpa thought for a long time and analyzed carefully what the Khitan general was holding, because in ancient times, the war was necessary for human heads.

Yes, the Khitan soldiers were no exception in fighting.

Grandpa told the group of people: This is a mechanism triggered by a ground painting. Some of them use puzzles to puzzle the paintings on the ground based on the story of the mural on the wall. If they are spelled correctly, they will not trigger the mechanism trap, and they will also successfully pass other mechanism traps.

If you spell it wrong, then you will be unlucky. This painting tells the story of a Khitan general who came down from the battlefield because he was injured. Seeing that there was a gap in his arm, he held a knife in his right hand, and a square groove in his left hand, as if he was about to hold something.

The injured arm was missing piece of flesh, and the groove of the left hand should have a head. In ancient times, soldiers relied on the head to record their merits when fighting.

When these people heard their grandfather's words, they were silent. They could not chop off their own or others' heads and put them on them.

Grandpa saw everyone's expressions, so he boldly said: Cut off the dead head and put it on. Everyone was shocked by this, and in the end everyone agreed with Grandpa's words.

Grandpa picked up the machete and cut off the head of the person who died in the trap. The bloody head was placed in the groove by Grandpa. Grandpa cut off another piece of human flesh and put it in the gap of the general's arm.

After the head was put in, the blood on it seemed to be sucked away by something, flowing down the line. After a while, the whole painting was dyed red, and an exquisite picture was displayed in front of grandpa and the others.

The painting suddenly shone with golden light, disappeared in a short while, and the head disappeared. Both sides of the tomb passage suddenly lit up. It was the oil lamp on the wall. The mechanism triggered the oil lamp to ignite the oil lamp. A bright tomb passage appeared. Grandpa and others said: You can leave now, and it is unobstructed, so don’t worry about the mechanism trap.

These people gave grandpa a thumbs up and praised him for being smart.

My father suddenly remembered this story about my grandfather, and was inspired by my grandfather's cracking of the trap of the Khitan cemetery.

My father thought to himself: Will this tomb be the same as the tomb where my grandfather went? It won’t be a human head puzzle, if it really exists, what should I do?

My father didn't think so much. He told Bai Hannian and Qin Yan to pay attention when leaving and look at what's special about the walls or the ground.

Because he wasn't sure what was behind it.
