C11 (1/2)
The three of them were all old foxes. When their expressions changed and the measuring rod didn't sink any further, we knew that it was about time.
”7: 48 meters,” Wei Yuting said softly.
He pulled out the measuring rod and started digging through the hole.
Two men and one woman, even though Wei Yuting wanted to help. We don't agree, but the two of them are quite fast with their manpower. Plus, the soil wasn't too stiff, so we poured water on it and dug faster.
Even so, it was already evening by the time it was completely at the same level as the hole created by the measuring rod.
Wei Yuting knocked on the can and shouted for us to eat.
After dinner, we went down to the grave. After dinner, we dug around for a while to expand the area.
”Why are there roots here?” Wei Yuting said.
”But this should be the right place,” I assured her. ”The roots were unexpected, both of us unexpected, and I think they didn't expect it to turn out like this when they were building this place. In short, this tree shouldn't have anything to do with the tomb.
Results... It turns out we're still thinking too well.
If this really was a tomb, then this uninvited guest should be called a tomb sealing board, which was also known as the ”tomb sealing stone” in novels.
It was a bluestone slab.
Bluestone is one of the more widely distributed crust. The one buried in the dirt was pale yellow, a big piece.
”Raise them?” We both saw the impossibility in the eyes of the other two.
Dongfang Shuo had once said in his book The Classic of Mysteries and Desolation: ”There is a palace in the east, and the limestone is the wall.” Qing Shi had already been used in the Han Dynasty.
This was very deceptive. I sat on the floor.
After struggling to find the entrance, he realized that it was impossible to enter.
I kind of miss the time when I moved with the team. At least there were cranes. Even if they didn't come up the mountain, at least they still had leverage.
”It's almost dark. Let's set up camp tonight.” Wei Yuting whispered.
The three of them gathered around the fire in the canned food.
”Explosives?”
He shook his head.
”Lever?”
”Even if we had the strength, we wouldn't be able to find the tools to bear it.” What was negation?
”Probe rod?”
”It's hollow, so it can be detected. If it was used as a lever, it would definitely be broken.”
”Ugh …” Let's dig sideways. ”
The vote was passed.
Although this method seemed very childish in this situation, it had to be said to be very useful.
Since he was already here, it was best to be early instead of late. The way Wei Yuting looked at our hands holding her perfume was as if she was about to kill someone.
Just as he said.
For tombstones, there are usually two types: horizontal and vertical. The horizontal, needless to say, is basically parallel to the sea level (a few degrees of error is not always necessary to raise the bar); the second type is vertical, such as a point in a cave, or a slope, which, like a normal door, stands upright, so that the entire chamber feels like an Inuit icehouse. ”Of course, it would be more or less luxurious than that.
Right now we're in the middle of it.
Forty-five degrees looked at the tombstone in the sky.
There were two choices — from the top, from the angle of digging towards the south, or from the bottom.
We choose from above. Now that he had a way, he had Qian Jin to dig and shovel!
Wei Yuting's eyesight had already been broken, so she was yawning on the side.
”Da Da.” It was a very small sound, but it was very pleasing to the ears.
No matter how skilled a craftsman is, there will be omissions on the sealing-board. There had always been two types of construction. One was from the inside to the outside, but from the inside to the inside. From the inside to the outside, there was only one final construction project. From the outside to the inside, he had to leave a path of retreat. If he wasn't repairing the escape path, he would sneak out from here.
However, this place was already extremely tightly-knit. Even after so long, it took a lot of effort to ”snap” a gap.
What do you mean by ”eh”? ” His expression changed. ”This isn't right.” He pointed at the stone slab. ”The slab is forty-five degrees!”
We leaned over to look.
As he was digging carefully, the bottom of the pattern was revealed. It was obviously the opposite. For example … The auspicious cloud patterns on it.
”Eight trigrams.” Wei Yuting exclaimed.
Yes, we can see it even if it turns over. It was a Diagram of the Universe that had been flipped over. The upper and lower reaches become the upper and lower reaches.
