Chapter 26

rted crying.I took three steps forward and crouched down, carefully patting his shoulder. "Big brother, you said you've been trapped here for a long time Then where did you come from before Wouldn't y...If someone studies and invents mechanisms, then naturally there will be people who study and break them.

To crack this kind of rigid mechanism and get inside, there are generally two ways.

The bull-nose ring was captured by clever tactics and brute force.

One of the most famous incidents involved Sun Dianying's theft of Empress Dowager Cixi's tomb. He encountered a natural stone barrier, but instead of using finesse, he relied on brute force. With a company of strongmen, he eventually used hundreds of pounds of military explosives to blast open the gate and break through the stone barrier. This allowed him to steal priceless treasures such as the Night Pearl, Jade Cabbage, and Nine Dragon Sword.

There's another way, insiders call it the "ox-nose ring method," which Sun Lao San told me about later.

Have you ever seen the iron rings used for nose and neck halters on cattle

It's a hollow design in the middle with small holes on both sides to allow for rope attachment.

It's so dry.

First, locate the position of the stone on the door frame. On the outside surface of the door, use a hammer and chisel to carve a shape resembling a bull's nose. This way, you can see through the gap in the door to the underside of the stone on the opposite side.

Then, a self-made tool called a semicircular dragon claw is needed. The Northern School calls it a semicircular dragon claw, while the Southern School calls it a bent needle.

At first, the national archaeological team tried every possible method (except explosives) to remove the 1.5-ton natural stone behind the Dingling stone gate, but they failed. In the end, they referred to ancient texts, and some people said that they even enlisted the help of tomb robbers who were serving their sentences in prison. This is how they managed to open Dingling intact.

The names "semi-circular dragon claws" and "curved needles" sound complicated at first, but the principle behind them is actually quite simple.

A bent nail is a metal object with a long handle on one end and a semicircle shape on the other.

First, insert the bent nail into the crack of the door. Then, put the loop part over the surface of the stone. Finally, thread the rope through the pre-made bull's nose notch on the nail and pull it forcefully left or right outside.

If the boulder inside the < > is moved from its place, then the trap is broken and people can push open the stone gate and go in.

A self-sealing stone is the most common mechanism in ancient tomb mechanisms.

For millennia, since people began to believe in burial, the cycle of grave robbing and counter-grave robbing has never ceased. Whoever is more skilled prevails in the end.

Late that night, around 3 a.m., our group still climbed up from the stolen cave and left. Wang Ba Tou's face was very ugly. As someone who has been in this line for half his life, Wang Ba Tou still knows his limits when it comes to some things.

Even if we used a crowbar and tied it with ropes, three or four of us wouldn't be able to move the gate stone weighing more than two or three tons.

Wang changed his original plan. He had Sun Laoda contact buyers as quickly as possible to sell the seven or eight bags of bronze artifacts, and at the same time, he contacted Yi Mo, asking her men to quickly find a way to fill the stolen tunnel.

We must not leave any trace behind. We need to withdraw from Shun De as quickly as possible and lay low for a while.

At the same time, the king sternly warned us not to spread word of tonight's events, lest we land ourselves in prison.

The three Sun brothers, who grew up together, drank together, and made money together, have suddenly lost one.

Under the pressure from his boss, Sun Lao Da reluctantly started working as a rice peddler, hoping to quickly sell off those bronze wares.

I don't know when it will be sold for money, the waiting days are very slow. Sun Lao San drinks himself into a stupor every day to drown his sorrows.

I saw, sometimes Old Sun the Third holding a wine bottle, half-drunk and half-awake, would keep talking to himself.

"Usually, at this time, you would be the happiest, Second Brother, shouting the loudest because it's almost time to divide the money."

"Second brother, where...where are you

"Come back and divide the money."
