Text Chapter 903: The Fountain of Death(1/2)
There are also three, six or nine levels of ancient tombs. The simplest and most straightforward way to judge is the size of the tomb, the size of the project, and the value of the funerary objects.
The tomb of the Egyptian pharaohs is a huge pyramid that has existed for thousands of years, and the tomb of Qin Shihuang is not small. The countless terracotta warriors and horses buried with him are priceless.
The tomb in front of me actually has a mountain on top of it. It seems low-key but is very high-profile. I don’t know why the owner of the tomb wants to suppress himself under a mountain like Sun Wukong.
"Do you think you've come here to do some digging? You've dug through this mountain, why don't you dig to the underworld!"
Ma Laodao rolled his eyes and looked at Yu Fei with contempt.
"Okay, you're awesome, tell me how to do it!"
Yu Fei rubbed his nose in embarrassment. This old guy was really annoying. When it came to the field he was good at, he was so good that he couldn't control himself.
"To put it nicely, our current status is called Captain Touching Gold, but to put it worse, we are tomb robbers. Our purpose is to take away the funerary objects in the tomb, so we need to find the exact location of the tomb and directly enter the tomb.
Use the least amount of effort to take away the treasure inside!"
Ma Laodao put his hands behind his back and said in a very pretentious manner.
"If you don't show off, you'll die! You don't have to tell us what we do, why don't you just hurry up and tell us what we're going to do!"
Sun Laizi couldn't bear it anymore and cursed directly at Ma Laodao.
"You think this is digging a cellar! I have to observe it and use Feng Shui techniques to deduce it!"
Ma Laodao was speechless and had nothing to say. He could only take out a compass and other items and squat on the ground to tinker with them.
Yu Fei glared at several people one by one. A person must learn to assess the situation. Now Ma Laodao does have great capital. If Ma Laodao gets a grudge, he may have to suffer. Cai Xiaorou of the Cai family before was just because of disrespect.
Ma Lao said, he was almost frightened to death because this old thing attracted wasps.
"Walk!"
As he walked and tinkered, Ma Laodao kept looking in all directions, as if he was doing some complicated math problems. He kept taking out his compass and muttering something unknown.
Ma Laodao took them in a large circle around Fentou Mountain. Everyone could see the surroundings. They were either mountains or trees, and there were no traces of human activity at all.
"That's not right! Feng Shui, Feng Shui, where there is wind and water, where did the water go?"
After walking around in a circle and coming back, Ma Laodao scratched his head and said depressedly.
"That's it!"
The skinny monkey unbuttoned his pants and peeed against a tree as he spoke.
"puff……"
Yu Fei was drinking water, and Shouhou's cunning move made him immediately squirt out all the water in his mouth.
The others couldn't help but laugh, except for Ma Laodao, whose face was a little dark.
"Isn't the water on the mountain?"
Wang Dachui looked towards the top of the mountain and said to Ma Laodao in confusion.
"On the mountain...yes! There must be water on the top of the mountain!"
After hearing this, Ma Laodao said with surprise that sometimes even stupid people can play the role of fools. This Wu Xin's words awakened Ma Laodao.
After Ma Laodao finished speaking, he walked up the mountain, but everyone else stood there with no intention of following.
"Let's go quickly?"
Ma Laodao walked a few steps, turned around suddenly, and saw that Yu Fei and others were motionless, and said in confusion.
"It's useless for us to go up there. Save your energy and dig a hole later."
Yu Fei spread his hands. Although he had almost unlimited energy under low-intensity exercise, there was no need to follow Ma Laodao and walk around like a dog.
"It's okay if they don't go, but you come with me later!"
Ma Laodao pointed at Yu Fei and said.
"Why? Is it because I have a more miserable life?"
Yu Fei rolled his eyes.
"If you don't go, who will protect me if there is danger?"
Ma Laodao said confidently.
"It turns out I'm scared!"
Yu Fei had no choice but to follow Ma Laodao up the mountain, while the others stayed and waited.
There was nothing new along the way, but after reaching the top of the mountain, Yu Fei's eyes immediately lit up, because there were many wild fruit trees on the top of the mountain, which were ripe in autumn. Yu Fei hurriedly reached out and picked several of them while walking.
eat.
In this mountain forest, there are almost no birds in the mouth, and there are sour and sweet wild fruits to eat, which is also a very happy thing.
The middle of the top of the mountain was relatively flat, with a large open space. When they walked to the middle, they finally saw the water in Feng Shui that Ma Laodao said.
In front of you is a small pool. The water is so clear that you can clearly see the stones in the water. The pool is surrounded by fine sand, which is very soft and comfortable for your feet.
"Mountain spring! I'm about to finish drinking the water."
Yu Fei took one look and took off his water bottle, preparing to store some water.
"Don't touch the water!"
Ma Laodao hurriedly spoke to stop Yu Fei.
"What's wrong? You're walking in front. If you see it first, it's yours?"
Yu Fei rolled his eyes. Such clear water looked like a mountain spring emerging from the ground. It must be sweet and refreshing.
"This water is extremely poisonous!"
Ma Laodao hurriedly explained.
"Toxic? How did you tell?"
Yu Fei was stunned and didn't know how Ma Laodao deduced such a result.
"Don't you think the water is so clean that it's a bit scary? It's understandable without fish and shrimp, but there aren't even water insects or plants. The shore is full of fine sand, and not a single blade of grass grows."
Ma Laodao explained to Yu Fei.
Yu Fei took a closer look and found that this was indeed the case. The water was too clean. There was no living creature in it. There were no aquatic plants in the water, not even on the shore. There were no footprints left by animals around to drink the water.
Ma Laodao stood on the shore and kicked the fine sand under his feet. Suddenly, half of the wild bird's wings were exposed. He grabbed it and gently pulled it out.
"We are stepping on quicksand, and the water is highly toxic. Once any animal drinks the water, it will be poisoned and die immediately, and then the body will be slowly swallowed by the quicksand!"
Ma Laodao suddenly said with an ugly expression.
When Yu Fei looked at his feet, he found that most of his feet were sunk in. He didn't notice the slow feeling. If Ma Laodao hadn't noticed it, he would have stood still for a while and his feet would have sunk deep in. He would have pulled it out if he wanted to.
It's difficult.
Yu Fei exerted force on his legs and jumped out, far away from the shore. Ma Laodao got one foot completely stuck in, and it was very difficult to pull it out directly. He didn't have the abnormal strength of Yu Fei, so he fell to the ground.
Rolled out smoothly.
"This quicksand is not very powerful!"
Yu Fei looked at the footprints left by the two people and said.
"This kind of quicksand is similar to Newtonian fluid. It doesn't feel very powerful at first. Once you sink in deeply, you will feel as if there is an irresistible force that keeps pulling you into the ground. Most people can't escape at all and can only watch.
He looked at himself, being pulled into the ground little by little and suffocated to death."
Ma Laodao shook his head and said with lingering fear.
"Newtonian fluid? Is that what starch and water form?"
Yu Fei didn't expect to hear such profound things from Ma Laodao's mouth, so he asked uncertainly.
"right."
Ma Laodao nodded, this is also one of the ways to prevent tomb robbers. The owner of the tomb is a ruthless person, and he even wants to trap anyone who comes close to his tomb. It is estimated that the tomb is even more dangerous.
"Didn't you say that this is a tomb piled up by manpower? How can there be a mountain spring? And this spring is about the same age as this tomb, both are thousands of years old. What kind of poison can survive for thousands of years?"
Yu Fei felt a lot of questions popping up.
"It is not difficult to create a mountain spring. You can do it if you have groundwater. As for the toxicity, it is not poisoned by the owner of the tomb, but the toxins carried by the mineral layers through which the groundwater passes. Some sulfide and cyanide compounds are highly toxic."
Ma Laodao said calmly.
"Oh shit, how come you know everything!"
Yu Fei was immediately stunned, feeling that Ma Laodao was proficient in astronomy, geography, physics, and chemistry.
"Don't peek through the crack in the door and make me look down on you!"
Ma Laodao raised his head proudly and turned around to walk down the mountain. Yu Fei smiled faintly, as long as he was not a pig teammate, the smarter the better.
When the two people returned to the foot of the mountain, Wang Dachui and others had already set up a fire. An unlucky rabbit caught from nowhere was being grilled on the fire. You Yufei could learn all day with this barbecue hand, and they themselves
Now they are all half-experts, and the smell of roasted hare fills the air.
"Just in time, after I'm full, I'll find the right location and you can start digging holes!"
