Chapter 702

When Laura saw O'Connor leaving alone, she didn't take his words to heart. She went straight up to Chen Yulou and said in harsh Chinese, "Hello! Do any of you speak English? I'm an archaeologist from Britain. My name is Laura." as the best female archaeologist in contemporary Britain, Laura can speak seven languages, although she doesn't speak Chinese very well, But it's OK to barely communicate with the Chinese.

On the contrary, Chen Yulou was jumped by the "foreign woman" who could speak Chinese. He immediately reacted and said in Xiangxi Dialect: "did Miss Laura just understand what we were talking about?"

Chen Yulou didn't know how much these foreigners understood. Now he remembered that it was careless to talk about his old business in front of these foreigners. Fortunately, the Xiangxi dialect was used in the unloading gang. The sly light in his eyes flashed past, so he tried to test Laura.

China has a vast territory, different sounds in ten miles, different customs in a hundred miles, and many dialects. China still dare not say that she can understand all of them. Besides, Laura is a foreigner, so Laura naturally shows a puzzled expression and says with difficulty: "can you speak slowly? I can't understand..." Chen yuliou is old in the Jianghu and naturally observes words and colors, Laura felt that her words were not false, so she relaxed slightly.

In order to take care of Laura, he slowed down and explained in Mandarin: "Miss Laura, when Marshal Feng of Beiyang contacted us, he didn't say that foreigners would join the archaeological team. Although we are only civilian husbands hired by Marshal Feng, we also know that Chinese treasures can't be left in the hands of outsiders. Although we are contemptible, we also know that deceiving teachers and destroying ancestors is a great crime, so please forgive me, Miss Laura. We can't let you enter the construction site."

Laura vaguely understood half of it and tried to explain: "We won't steal the cultural relics left by your ancestors. We only want one thing in it. Someone stole something from our country and put it here. So we need your help to bring it out. Otherwise, not only we British, but also the kind-hearted people all over the world will face a great disaster..."

Laura struggled to explain in Henan Mandarin. Halfway through the explanation, O'Connor in the distance called her back and said she had made an important discovery, so she could only simply end and say, "my companion is calling me, but please believe me. We need to build trust and cooperation. Bye!"

With these words, Laura turned and left the construction site.

The old man with gray hair came to Chen Yulou's ear and whispered, "what should we do, young Lord? If the British drove Feng Yuxiang's people to blockade here, we have to make wedding clothes for others, and now foreigners are involved. The first imperial mausoleum is unpredictable, and Feng Yuxiang and foreigners are eyeing... Are we going to do this?"

"Feng Yuxiang invited us. We never mentioned that foreigners would also participate. It can be seen that they are not kind. They want to use us to crack the organs and Feng Shui dangerous areas of the Shihuang mausoleum. We also want to build a plank road to hide our position, bypass their line of sight, touch the main tomb first and get a good thing out. We unload linglishi, always only for wealth, regardless of black and white good and evil..."

Chen Yulou's eyes twinkled and hesitated: "The first imperial mausoleum is large-scale and close to Xi'an city. On weekdays, we dare not touch the tiger's ass of Lishan Mountain, but now with Feng Yuxiang's support, we can dig the imperial mausoleum on a large scale. It's a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. As for foreigners, how can foreigners understand the beauty of Chinese Feng Shui mechanism under the tomb? At that time, if they want them to live, they will live, and if they want them to die, they will die, He came to China and told him to meet a big zongzi. "

"Now let's stay still so as not to disturb the 'sting Dragon' below. There are insect eggs under the ground. Once all the eggs are hatched in the wind, people within a radius of tens of miles can't live!"

"What if the foreigner makes a rash move?" the old man worried.

"Keep everyone away from the foreigners. It's hard to deal with the British in a battalion! I'll frame them once if they don't move. If they move, they'll ask for trouble and let people prepare more firewood. Then we'll set up a fire dragon array on the East Highland and rest assured. I'll go to the partridge whistle to discuss it. Don't move first. Feng Yuxiang urges them down , you say, "open the grave and worship God. If you don't worship, don't start!"

When Laura returned to the tent where the party were, she heard O'Connor say: "Now the British Empire is stuck together. Today's telegram says that the plague has swept all counties in England. Even Ireland has found the disease. The dead have hit Birmingham. The survival of the British Empire is at stake. We have no time to work according to the normal archaeological process. We must make progress as soon as possible."

O'Connor's eyes twinkled and suddenly said, "now there are three tons of explosives in the camp. With the support of the engineering camp, we can open a channel in the unimportant place of the mausoleum below and use explosives to lift the soil covering the upper layer of the underground palace. In this way, we can dig the whole mausoleum in only two days!"

Laura was shocked and quickly objected: "it's impossible. It will cause immeasurable damage to the ruins below. If the underground palace collapses and is buried in the worst case, the time to clean up the underground palace will be delayed to at least three months, which is too risky. We should get the support of local explorers and formulate a more reasonable plan to take action."

Indiana Jones hesitated for a moment after hearing the two men's tit for tat speeches. He agreed with O'Connor's decision, but what Laura said was also reasonable. If the explosives failed to open the soil layer and blow up a gap in the underground palace, but let the underground palace collapse, the whole operation would be dealt a heavy blow, although Jones did not know the Chinese saying that haste makes waste, But I still understand the similar truth.

"If we buy General Feng at a high price and ask him to send a large number of migrant workers to dig the tomb at all costs, the efficiency should be improved to a level we can accept."

Indiana Jones's meaning is very clear. The so-called "at all costs" is to let the Chinese risk their lives to work. Like the Zhongdong road and the Western Railway of the United States, let the Chinese do the most dangerous work, pave a road to the tomb with human life, not study traps and mechanisms, but use living people to test and let the Chinese risk demolition.

Mr. Indiana didn't say anything: so that they can safely supervise the work of the Chinese without risking their lives.

O'Connor did not hesitate to reject the idea: "the Chinese are not trustworthy. Like Indians, they can't bear this degree of responsibility. They will make a mess. In this case, the trusted British should solve the problem..."

Finally, we discussed and decided that the two schemes should be carried out at the same time. On the one hand, O'Connor should command the British engineers to find out the general shape of the underground palace, drill a blasting hole directly to the side of the tomb, and then detonate in a directional way to blow up a relatively large gap, while Indiana should let the Chinese men continue to dig down and obtain more information about the underground palace. If O'Connor succeeds, Then the Chinese people can first enter the underground palace of the tomb to explore. The British army is responsible for inspection and vigilance. If O'Connor fails, he can also enter the tomb from the other side of the underground palace.

It happened that the underground palace dug out by Luoyang was at the edge of the camp where British soldiers were stationed. They could detonate by opening a tunnel behind the camp.

O'Connor commanded the engineering company to quickly dig a tunnel through the underground palace from the side of the earth seal, while Laura and Indiana went to contact Chen Yulou to continue the excavation work.

The camp of the group of bandits in the unloading mountains has moved to the high ground in the East. In front of the camp gate, there was a fierce quarrel between the partridge whistle and Chen Yulou. Chen Yulou explained: "we haven't heard of foreigners intervening before, and we don't know that there are foreigners under surveillance. Moreover, there is a dangerous opportunity here. We can check it. It's not difficult to kill all the foreigners. Why should brother Yang?"

The partridge whistled and said again, "we, the mountain moving Taoist, are only for precious medicine, not for wealth, not to mention colluding with foreigners. I'm sorry I can't explore the imperial mausoleum with brother Chen."

Chen Yulou advised, "listen to me, partridge whistle. It's a foregone conclusion that foreigners forced Feng Yuxiang to dig the imperial mausoleum. Feng Yuxiang is old and cunning. He asked me to come and pave the way for them. I was very angry after I knew it. But even if we don't want to use it for Feng Yuxiang, is there no one in his hand? Most of us still urge the civilian husband to open the mausoleum for him."

"Brother Yang knows that it was dangerous to sting the Dragon earth in the past. If we hadn't been here, who would have protected the civilian workers here? When the insects attack, is it the warlord leader Feng Yuxiang who died? It's not the innocent people. Moreover, there are not many rare treasures in the first imperial mausoleum. Even if the partridge whistle is hard to find, the Phoenix gall may not be here. If you really let Ying The Chinese have got the Phoenix gall. Are you willing, brother Yang? "

"Natural materials and land treasures are home to those with virtue. Rather than let foreigners get the relics of the first emperor, let us succeed."

As soon as Chen Yulou said this, he heard a loud noise in the West.

In an instant, everyone's face changed dramatically, and Chen Yulou jumped to his feet and said, "grandma ritte, foreigners actually used explosives. I really don't think they live too long. They're too tired to live?" everyone knows what's buried under their feet. It's thousands of mu of underground high-density insect eggs, which will decay at the sight of the wind. If the explosion really startles these insects, it's more than hundreds of millions of dollars?

Chen Yulou ran to the highland and said, "open a ditch along the highland, pour fire oil into it, and lay a fire dragon array. Otherwise, the insects will be startled, and hundreds of millions of people will gather, and a black cloud will fly away from the ground. If they fall to the ground, they will die within a few miles. These insects like Yin and dislike Yang. They can only be blocked by fire as a wall."

When I ran to the top of the highland, I saw a halo rising from the explosion place, like a colorful circle. In the halo, a huge black hole devoured the flying dust, as if a vortex suddenly collapsed under the floating dust.

Chen Yulou is proficient in the method of smelling mountains and distinguishing dragons. Listening to the wind, thunder and the echo of the explosion, he can judge how big and deep a tomb is underground. But at this time, the echo of the explosion is long and long. Slowly, he doesn't feel that there seems to be an extremely vast space, which goes straight into the hinterland of Lishan and almost hollows out Lishan.

Such a scale would be appalling if it were the underground palace of the first imperial mausoleum.

Chen Yulou saw the old man running in a hurry, pointed to the colorful light and asked, "Sir, that's the earth gas leaked by the dragon vein?"

The old man, who had experienced the sting of dragon soil in the noble Tomb of the state of Qin, changed his face greatly, hid under Chen Yulou's head and said, "it's a pig blocking a son, pull and shout!"

Several people quickly poured the fire oil into the arranged ditch and lit the fire. Except that a channel was left in the front camp for the civilian men and workers to take refuge in the mountain, there was only a fire wall in other places. The fire light lifted up three feet high. The camp was arranged by Chen Yulou. The wind blew from the back of the fire wall. They hid here very safely.

Then the old man felt guilty and said: "That's where the earth gas leaks. When the Dragon Cave is deflated, it looks colorful. That's right, but the Dragon gas is five colors. The color is positive but not gorgeous. If it doesn't exist, it's as gorgeous and thick as it is now. That's the poisonous fog gathered by insects. If you touch it, you will die. Now those British detonate the land seal, which makes the insects startle and gather into colorful fog. They rise from the foreign barracks. Alas! There I wonder how many more people are alive! "
