Tomb raiding: Carrying a coffin during a funeral procession, rewarded with the Dragon Elephant Prajn
Chapter 171 Feng Hou Qi Men, Tu He Che
Wang Xiansheng gently moved the stone slab. After the constellations on the stone slab matched the positions of the 28 constellations on the mural, a series of clicking sounds were heard, and the tombstone beneath everyone's feet began to rotate.
To everyone's surprise, the tightly sealed stone coffin did not open; instead, the walls on all sides suddenly began to flip.
Amidst the earth-shaking tremors, the only way for everyone to maintain their balance was to grab onto anything they could find.
Yin Nanfeng instinctively grabbed Li Changsheng's arm, leaning almost against him.
Just as everyone was filled with panic, the tremors inside the tomb finally stopped. At this moment, the six walls had been completely flipped over, replaced by six antique display shelves!
Each shelf is filled with countless antiques, including paintings and calligraphy, porcelain, and terracotta figurines.
Seeing this, everyone looked at each other, puzzled and confused.
"What's going on?"
"Is this the treasure that Li Chunfeng hid?"
The crowd discussed amongst themselves, their minds filled with doubt.
Just then, Yin Nanfeng led several waiters from the Crescent Moon Hotel to the antique display shelf and carefully examined the antiques on it.
A moment later, Yin Nanfeng turned around and shook his head at everyone.
"These antiques aren't exactly genuine, nor are they anything of great value!"
It's not exactly a high-quality item, but that's only relative. After all, these were antiques that Li Chunfeng casually arranged back then. They might not have been worth much money at the time, but now they're considered small gems. Any one of them could easily sell for tens or even hundreds of thousands of yuan.
Of course, Yin Nanfeng is the young lady of the New Moon Hotel, and in her eyes, ordinary antiques are indeed only second-rate.
Upon hearing this, Wang Xiansheng's doubts remained unresolved. He couldn't understand why Li Chunfeng would place so many ordinary antiques in the tomb.
It's impossible to say that Li Chunfeng was poor!
He was a master of feng shui, and his highest official position was Grand Astrologer. Moreover, he was granted a noble title during his lifetime.
Although he was just a county boy, he was still considered a nobleman.
More importantly, there are just too many antiques. Six entire display shelves are filled with them. What exactly is Li Chunfeng trying to do?
Just as everyone was wondering, one of Wang Xiansheng's men saw a terracotta figurine and instinctively reached out to pick it up.
But just as he removed the terracotta figurine, the tomb chamber began to shake again.
Rumble!
With a deafening roar, a section of the ground above the stone coffin on the high platform suddenly collapsed, revealing a deep abyss below!
Wang Xiansheng shouted and pulled up his colleague who was about to fall.
Everyone looked at the suddenly collapsed ground, exchanging bewildered glances, all sensing that something was wrong.
Just then, Yin Nanfeng suddenly spoke up: "I understand! The placement of these antiques is the mechanism! Only by placing them correctly can we obtain the real treasure! But if we make too many mistakes, the entire tomb will collapse, burying us and the treasure together!"
Everyone was shocked upon hearing this!
They all turned their gazes toward Li Changsheng without prior arrangement!
Because of everyone present, only he could fly!
Even if the tomb collapses, he will remain unharmed.
Seeing everyone's gaze, Li Changsheng smiled helplessly: "Don't worry, I guarantee you'll all be fine."
Hearing this, everyone breathed a sigh of relief.
Yin Nanfeng quickly asked, "Boss Li, can you solve this mechanism?"
"I don't know much about government offices, so let Wang take the lead."
Although Li Changsheng had read the plot, the plot did not fully demonstrate how to solve the mechanism.
It's best to leave these kinds of professional tasks to professionals.
More importantly, Li Changsheng usually deals with mechanisms by brute force. There's no need for this kind of trouble.
However, it would be even better if they could solve it, saving us the trouble of doing it ourselves.
Wang Xiansheng nodded upon hearing this.
"I'll do my best!"
As he spoke, Wang Xiansheng carefully examined the six antique display shelves!
A moment later, he muttered a few lines of incantation about celestial phenomena from the Dragon Seeking Manual.
"There are nine stars in the heavens, and nine palaces on earth... No, no, the order is wrong!"
"Kan Palace 1, Kun Palace 2... that's not right either, the order is reversed!"
"In the Plum Blossom Divination method, Qian represents Heaven and Kan represents Water..."
After reading for a while, Wang Xiansheng suddenly stopped. He stared intently at the antique shelf, a glint of shrewdness flashing in his eyes.
"Erhei, go and switch the positions of the bronze mirror on the third display shelf and the jade disc on the sixth display shelf!"
Erhei responded and immediately did as instructed!
And so, under Wang Xiansheng's command, Erhei and the others gradually rearranged the items on the antique shelf.
There was no response even after three attempts.
On the fourth attempt, just as the items were rearranged, the tomb shook again, and another section of the ground collapsed and cracked open, revealing a dark, bottomless hole!
Tingnu, who was standing near the cave entrance, suddenly lost her footing and plummeted into the abyss.
"Watch out! Help!"
Yin Nanfeng exclaimed in surprise.
But it was too late; everyone could only watch helplessly as Tingnu fell.
Just then, a soft murmur was heard.
"Feng Hou Qi Men, Kun Character Earth River Chariot!"
Before he finished speaking, a pillar of earth made of stones suddenly appeared below Tingnu!
Tingnu was so frightened that he clung tightly to the earthen pillar until it pulled him to the ground.
Everyone was astonished to see the suddenly appearing earthen pillar and the faintly visible Qimen Dunjia formation above it.
They never expected that Li Changsheng's magic not only allowed him to fly and break formations, but also to summon earth pillars! He was practically like a legendary immortal!
Seeing that everyone's eyes were on him, Li Changsheng waved his hand and said irritably, "Why are you looking at me? Keep working, finish early and get some rest."
Upon hearing this, everyone responded respectfully and went about their own business.
After this incident, Wang Xiansheng became even more cautious!
However, the mechanism set up by Li Chunfeng was exceptionally complex and ingenious, and even though he was careful, he still made several mistakes.
The last time, 99% of the entire tomb collapsed!
All that remains is the stone coffin on the high platform and the six-sided display shelves!
The crowd could only huddle on the earthen pillar that Li Changsheng had conjured out of thin air using his magic, and continue to decipher the mechanism!
Fortunately, not long after, Wang Xiansheng, covered in sweat, finally cracked the last position!
As the last jade ruyi and a jade pendant were swapped, the stone coffin on the high platform slowly opened a crack.
Immediately afterwards, a square golden casket slowly rose from the crack.
Everyone was thrilled to see this.
"Finally found it!"
Wang Xiansheng breathed a sigh of relief and wiped the sweat from his forehead.
He stepped forward and picked up the golden box, and then everyone returned along the same route.
Apart from the slightly troublesome Suspended Staircase, which required Li Changsheng to lead people out one by one, everything else went smoothly.
