C2115 The Entrance to the Graveyard(3)
Gradually, when the dirt under his feet was completely swept away, under the illumination of the flashlight, a thick and heavy limestone slab appeared in front of Fann Binn's eyes! This limestone slab was as big as a square table. There was no need to mention how heavy it was, and there were even patterns carved on it. It was obviously not an ordinary stone slab! Fann Binn was a little excited. If his guess was correct... Perhaps the entrance to Patriarch of Tang Sect's tomb was under this stone slab!
However, how to push open the limestone now became a problem. Although Fann Binn had a lot of inner energy, the limestone weighed a few tons. Even if he was a cow, he wouldn't be able to move it, let alone lift it with his hands. That was simply a pipe dream. It was completely impossible. However, there were no cranes or excavators here. How could he possibly push such a heavy limestone slab with his body?
Fann Binn, who had a headache, fell into deep thought. He clenched his fist in disbelief. "Damn it! I've faced so many difficulties. How could I fall in front of a mere limestone slab? Nothing can stop me from going to Patriarch of Tang Sect's tomb! Since I can't move this limestone slab, I'll just destroy it! In any case, I must know whether or not the entrance to the tomb is hidden underneath this limestone slab!"
Since he had made his decision, Fann Binn naturally did not hesitate any longer. He took out the laser detonator from his backpack. The laser detonator used the destruction of small areas to carry out some explosive work. The reason Fann Binn brought these detonators with him was because of the destruction of small areas. The main reason was that if he entered Patriarch of Tang Sect's tomb, there would be some stone doors or places with lockdown devices that he could not open. It could be used to forcefully destroy. However, he clearly did not expect that he would not be able to find the entrance to the tomb. The bomb had come in handy.
The best part about the laser detonator was that it used a laser signal. Not only was it safe and reliable, but it was also very precise in the range of detonating in a narrow area. It was precisely because of this that Fann Binn dared to bring it with him.
One had to know that the passage in the ancient tomb was very narrow. Not only was the space limited, it was also very easy to collapse due to the vibration. If there were more fragments after the explosion that flew in all directions, it might also damage the surrounding ancient objects that might be piled up. Therefore, they had to control the explosion to surround Fann and guide it through the air currents produced by the explosion. To control the trajectory of the fragments produced by the explosion effectively, this was the most difficult thing to do for an explosive. Using a laser fuse and manually adjusting the control of the detonator, there would not be any problems.
Fann Binn attached the laser detonating bomb to the limestone floor and manually adjusted some parameters according to the height of the hole he dug. Fann Binn climbed out of the hole he dug and returned to the desolate plain. After walking a certain distance, he finally stood about fifteen meters away from the deep hole he had dug. He then pressed the button to control the explosion.
"Buzz!" A soft sound came from the deep hole. Fann Binn knew that the laser bomb had exploded. Then, in his eyes, the explosive used the power of the explosion to create an adsorption effect. Pieces of limestone pieces flew out of the deep hole in a strange way, following the direction of the airflow. They fell onto the Desolate Plains.
After a dozen pieces of the stone slab were blown up, Fann Binn rushed towards the deep hole in a hurry. He was still nervous and did not know what was underneath the stone slab.
Very quickly, Fann Binn arrived at the edge of the deep hole he had dug. He turned on the flashlight and waved it down. Instantly, he saw a big hole in the limestone in the middle. There was also a cloud of dust lingering in the middle of the darkness. Yes, the power of the explosion would definitely blow up a portion of the stone slab into dust. Moreover, the limestone had not been opened for hundreds of years, so it was normal for it to produce turbid air.
Gradually, as the turbid air became fresher and fresher, Fann Binn, who was waiting, could clearly see what was hidden in the darkness in the cave below the stone slab. After the limestone exploded, a black hole similar to a cave appeared inside. And this hole was where the limestone floor had originally been. There was a row of stairs that was clearly man-made that descended all the way down. No one knew where this flight of stairs led to.
Fann Binn jumped down from the plain excitedly, and came to the side of the broken limestone floor. He wanted to see what was in the depths of the cave. Unfortunately, this cave was deep and immeasurable. If he didn't follow the stairs, he was afraid that there was no way to know if it was the tomb of Patriarch of Tang Sect or not.
But then again, the fact that there was a stone staircase that led straight down indicated this problem. It was estimated that there was an 80% chance that Patriarch of Tang Sect's tomb was below, and this was the entrance to Patriarch of Tang Sect's tomb!
Fann Binn impatiently took out a laser display stick from his backpack and put it on his shoulder once again fluently. He pressed the switch on the laser stick, and the flashing light from the stick instantly lit up the entire deep hole. He stepped on the stone steps without any hesitation and walked down step by step. The laser stick in his hand emitted a strong light, ensuring that there was sufficient light at all times to allow him to face any danger in a more relaxed manner.
As the stone steps continued to go down, the dark cave seemed to be getting wider and wider. The more Fann Binn pulled, the more he felt that he was getting closer and closer to the tomb! Just thinking about it made him feel inexplicably excited. How much did he pay for this day? The reason why he gathered the Tang Sect's secret treasure and looked for the Tang Sect's tomb was for the arrival of this day. Although there were many twists and turns in the process, Huang Tian did not let down those who were determined. The Tang Sect's tomb was finally about to appear in front of him!
The range of the laser light was about 20 meters, so everything was still dark 20 meters away. So Fann Binn could only guess based on his feelings. The stone steps were very long. He walked for almost five minutes, but he still did not finish. However, he could feel that the stone steps were going downwards. They were heading towards the depths of the earth.
A large graveyard naturally had to be built in a very deep underground area. In addition, with the passage of time, under the premise of the original depth, there was a heavy layer of sediment from the passage of time. That was why Fann Binn felt that it was so far away. However, he had to admire it. In the ancient era, there were no modern machines. To be able to build such a large tomb in such deep underground was indeed the crystallization of the wisdom and hard work of the ancestors.
After walking for an unknown period of time, the stone steps suddenly disappeared. Fann Binn finally stepped on the flat ground of the limestone floor for the first time in the cave! He knew that the entrance to the tomb was about to arrive, so he excitedly walked forward. However, before he could walk a hundred steps, his right foot suddenly sank into the limestone floor in front of him. He immediately felt danger approaching, and his whole body quickly somersaulted backward!
"Sou Sou Sou..." A dense rain of arrows suddenly shot out from the walls on both sides of the cave. There were many arrows emitting green light on the spot where Fann Binn had stepped on the sunken stone slab. The green color on the arrowheads was because of the poison!
Fortunately, Fann Binn was an inner force expert, so he was very sensitive to danger. If it was an ordinary tomb raider, just this rain of arrows would have directly penetrated their bodies. The deadly poison would instantly penetrate their blood vessels, killing them on the spot.
Fann Binn, who had made a false alarm, immediately learned his lesson. He no longer dared to rush forward anxiously. Every step he took became cautious.
Obviously, the danger just now had calmed him down from his excitement. This was Patriarch of Tang Sect's tomb, no matter what kind of large-scale ancient tomb it was. There were many dangerous anti-theft measures, like the poisonous arrows that were shot out from the wall. He believed that as he went deeper, he would definitely encounter more of these hidden weapons.
However, it was not that Fann Binn did not make preparations for these mechanisms. At least the super alloy bulletproof vest that he was wearing was enough to resist normal physical attacks.
The cave was getting wider and wider. After Fann Binn went deeper, the cross-section of the tunnel was enough to accommodate four or five adult men walking side by side without feeling crowded. Fann Binn was sighing about the magnificent construction of Patriarch of Tang Sect's tomb. He was also thinking about a problem now. Patriarch of Tang Sect's tomb was so large that it was inevitable that a large number of workers would be summoned to build it. However, with so many people involved in the construction, it was inevitable that the news of the tomb would spread. Could it be that all these people had become Patriarch of Tang Sect's funerary objects in the end?
Only dead people would not leak secrets and not be able to speak. If that was really the case, then Patriarch of Tang Sect would really be as ruthless as the ancient emperors.
Of course, Fann Binn also understood that in that era, human society was far from being as civilized and developed as today. In a world where the strong preyed on the weak, the strong were respected by the people. It was not hard to accept the fact that killing someone to silence them was an outrageous thing.
After walking for an unknown period of time, Fann Binn's footsteps slowly stopped. It wasn't because there was no road ahead, but because the tunnel in front of him had expanded several times in an instant!
What kind of concept was this? This meant that after this expansion, the tunnel could accommodate twenty to thirty men with the same figure as Fann Binn walking side by side. This was already comparable to the small square outside! This was not the only thing that surprised him. Fann Binn also discovered that not far ahead, under the light of the laser, he saw a row of stone statues in various positions!
These statues looked like terracotta soldiers, but Fann Binn could feel that these stone statues did not look like soldiers. They were more like the chivalrous men of the martial arts world! Each and every movement seemed to be demonstrating a move! What surprised Fann Binn even more was that above the heads of this row of stone statues, they were clearly sunken, but the wick of the oil lamp was exposed. However, this wick was dozens of times thicker than an ordinary oil lamp!
Since there was a wick, then the top of these stone statues should be able to ignite flames. The function of these stone statues was obvious at a glance. It was specially used to store fuel for illumination.
Fann Binn strode forward and lit the wick of the stone statue with the lighter. The wick on the stone statue was thick and strong. After lighting it, it immediately lit up in all directions. It was even brighter than the laser in Fann Binn's hand. This was naturally due to the fact that the oil inside the stone statue was very pure.
Fann Binn lit the wick on the top of the stone statues one by one. Instantly, the light illuminated the entire space. The light lit up the cave passageway. At this moment, the scene in front of Fann Binn completely shocked him.
