Tomb Raider: The comprehension is against the sky, and the achievement is indestructible

Chapter 63: The master of tomb robbing, the golden abacus, there is a stone door deep in the hole

The next morning, Su Mo and others arrived at Panshe Slope of Longling.

"If this is a Feng Shui treasure land, I will burn the sixteen-character Yin-Yang Feng Shui secret book when I get back!"

When Huba looked at the Fishbone Temple in the distance, he couldn't help feeling angry and amused.

This fish bone temple is built in a ravine, with rolling mountains on both sides, which are very majestic and dangerous after being cut by thousands of years of wind. The wind blows in from the ravine, bringing with it a whistling sound, which sounds like the cry of ghosts.

The ridge is dotted with caves of various sizes, which appear dark and bottomless.

This kind of terrain and feng shui is definitely not a place to build a temple.

Fatty and Big Gold Teeth looked at the Fishbone Temple in the distance, but were a little confused.

"It's parked well, the wind is blowing, the feng shui is good, but there's a lack of water. But there should be water in this ravine when it rains, so it's almost a Feng Shui treasure land!"

Huba smiled and shook his head:

"Building a temple is different from building a tomb. You can't just find a random place to build it. It must be a place with a broad view and a mountain behind it. Have you ever seen even a small temple like a land temple built in a ravine like this?"

Su Mo shook his head:

"The guy who built the Fishbone Temple just wanted to cover up his tracks. It's impossible for it to be reasonable from the perspective of Feng Shui. We will know once we enter the temple!"

As they spoke, several people walked to the Fishbone Temple.

However, it turned out that the Fishbone Temple was indeed built with the skeleton of the Iron-Headed Dragon King. The fish head was the roof of the main hall, and the fish mouth was the temple gate.

The fat man knocked on the fish's mouth with his engineer's shovel, but it made a sound like the sound of metal clashing, and he couldn't help but gasp:
"Master, how did you manage to pierce its bones in the river?"

Su Mo smiled faintly:
"If you practice diligently with me, you will be able to do it one day."

After saying that, Su Mo turned around and walked into the Fishbone Temple.

It has now been basically confirmed that this Fish Bone Temple was used by tomb robbers to conceal their tracks, so the tomb robbery hole must be in the temple.

After Hubayi and Wang Pangzi entered, they began to look for the entrance to the tunnel.

However, they saw that the clay statue of the Dragon King in the temple had collapsed long ago, leaving only a coral plate base. Hubayi and Fatty Wang immediately went to move the altar, but the altar was surprisingly built very solidly. Although the two of them put in a lot of effort, the altar and the small half of the statue on it remained motionless.

Fatty Wang suddenly became angry and swung the engineer shovel at the altar, but he only knocked off the mud on the top of the altar, but could not move the white stone base underneath.

"Don't be impatient!"

Su Mo patted Fatty Wang on the shoulder, and Fatty Wang, the irritable wild horse, seemed to be reined in and immediately became much quieter.

Su Mo turned around and walked behind the altar, but found that the space between the back of the altar and the wall was very narrow, only enough for one person to stand.

He bent down and felt under the base of the altar, then reached out and knocked there.

bang bang...

The base of the altar really made an empty sound!
Hubayi and Dajinya were delighted:
“There really is a way!”

Su Mo knocked on it with his hand and found out that although the back of the altar base looked the same as other places, it was actually covered with a layer of yellow mud and a thick wooden board behind it, which was simply used to hide the truth. He then kicked it out.

boom!
The wooden board and the yellow mud covering it suddenly shattered, revealing a dark hole in the ground.

Fatty Wang suddenly turned from anger to joy:
"Master is the one who can spot the location of the underground mechanism at a glance!"

Su Mo smiled faintly:
"There's no such thing as a trap. It's just a trick of covering the wood with yellow mud!"

Huba hurried over and used an engineer shovel to clean the hole, but he found that the hole was not small, and Fatty Wang could easily fit in with his physique.

"This hole was dug with great skill. The round spots are as neat as if they were drawn with a compass. And the shovel marks on the wall are next to each other. This guy must be a master!"

Su Mo naturally knew that the man who used the Fishbone Temple to dig a hole did have some connection with Hubayi.

This person is Jin Suanpan, who was also the second apprentice of Zhang Sanlianzi and the second uncle of Hubayi’s grandfather!
Jin Suanpan was born into a merchant family and was well versed in the art of making strange and mysterious instruments. He always kept a golden abacus in his hand. The abacus beads and the frame were engraved with the Heavenly Stems and Earthly Branches, which were used to calculate the Five Elements and Eight Gates of Feng Shui.

However, Su Mo naturally didn't want to tell Huba about it at this time, because it was troublesome to explain, and it also made him seem like a time traveler with too many magical powers.

"Let's go in after the bad luck in there dissipates!"

The fat man then took out beef jerky, chicken legs, white wine and peanuts from his backpack, and the four of them started eating on the altar.

Anyway, this Dragon King Temple is totally fake and not effective at all, so there is no need to be superstitious about it.

While eating, Da Jin Ya couldn't help but feel strange and said:

"There are holes everywhere on Panshe Slope. Why did this tomb robber go to so much trouble to build a fish bone temple here to rob tombs? Wouldn't it be better to just find a cave and dig in?"

Su Mo shook his head:

"The caves here are very chaotic, and there must be some strange things inside. If we dig in from the caves under the soil shell, the danger is too high!"

"Last night, I was at the old couple's place and saw the terrain of Longling. It was like an old dragon hovering between the mountains, and the Fishbone Temple was right between the old dragon's body. This tomb robber saw the exact location of the ancient tomb, built the Fishbone Temple here, and then dug a slanted hole directly from one side to get in!"

When Da Jin Ya and others heard Su Mo's words, they couldn't help but admire the ability of this tomb robber.

In that era in the past, relying solely on the ability of Feng Shui and numerology, one could determine the specific location of an ancient tomb on the vast Panshe Slope. He could be said to be a peerless master!

Huba thought for a moment and said:
"This tunnel is dug between many caves, so there should be enough air. I'm just afraid that the space below is narrow, and the concentration of carbon dioxide will increase after the four of us go in. We'd better bring a few gas masks!"

Su Mo thought for a moment and said:
"It's better to bring a few with you just in case, but I think the space down there must be huge, so air shouldn't be a problem!"

After the few people had eaten and drunk their fill and had made their plans, they entered the cave through the tunnel behind the altar.

This hole was indeed dug tilted to one side, and the direction it was dug was exactly the Panshepo Mountain Range on one side. There were wooden frames fixed at regular intervals inside, and it was made very sturdy and solid. There was no need to worry about the risk of the hole collapsing.

Huba walked in front with a candle in one hand. After walking for a distance, he saw a stone door in front of him blocking his way.

"Oh my god, why is there a stone gate here?"
