Entertainment Secrets: Playing the role of Qilin, Mimi loves it so much

Chapter 244: Wire Fence, Is This High Temperature for Barbecue?

Is this tomb also the burial place of a royal relative from the Tang Dynasty?

Ye Bai said: "I guess the things in here are very valuable."

Meng Ziyi's eyes widened. "Is this true? Such a beautiful house, such exquisite murals, must be worth a fortune, right?"

Yang Mi asked hesitantly, "But...what could it be?"

Ye Bai shrugged: "I don't know either."

As he spoke, he walked inside.

Yang Mi immediately stopped him: "Wait! What if there's a trap? Let's dig after we find the treasure?"

Meng Ziyi said, "Since someone can get in, it must be more than just us. We should get it out as soon as possible and not delay too long."

Ye Bai glanced at the two of them: "Aren't you two afraid of death?"

Meng Ziyi hummed and said, "Anyway, I came here with you. If you die, I will die with you."

Yang Mi nodded in agreement: "Yes."

Ye Bai: "...Are you two stupid? I told you what if there's danger? You don't believe me?"

Meng Ziyi said as a matter of course: "You are such a powerful person, why do you need to worry?"

Yang Mi also said: "Even if there is danger, don't we have you? With you blocking the way, we are very safe."

Ye Bai: “…”

Ye Bai sighed and said helplessly: "You two are really spoiled. Fine, it's up to you."

After saying that, he pushed open the door and stepped in first.

It was pitch black inside, and nothing unusual happened. But Ye Bai keenly sensed a dangerous aura, and he held his breath.

He took out a tinder, lit it, and handed the candlestick to Meng Ziyi.

"Light these things up," he said in a low voice.

Meng Ziyi took the wick and took a closer look at the candlestick. The wax on the candlestick had dried up and emitted a rancid smell.

Meng Ziyi was so scared that she retracted her hand and screamed, "What is this? Ah..." She was scared to tears.

Ye Bai quickly covered her mouth and said, "Shh—stop making noise! ​​Do you want to bring people in from outside?"

Meng Ziyi sobbed and nodded desperately.

Ye Bai let her go and asked her to squat down. Meng Ziyi immediately squatted there with her knees hugged, her legs trembling.

Yang Mi also came over, holding the candlestick tremblingly and looking at it. After looking at it for a while, she was frightened and her face turned pale.

Ye Bai said: "Don't get too close, both of you. Protect yourselves and don't touch those things."

He stood at the door, observing his surroundings vigilantly.

The corridor was long, stretching deep into the depths. These antiques were piled in the corner, motionless, as if they had been asleep for a long time. Ye Bai walked to the innermost part and saw several corpses. They were wearing armor, their chests stained with blood, and sharp blades were stuck in their necks.

Yang Mi and Meng Ziyi didn't dare to get close and hid far away.

"No wonder the tomb owner left those words." Ye Bai murmured, "So this is the Mausoleum of Qin Shi Huang."

He looked around but found no clues, and was not sure whether the tomb owner had passed away here.

Ye Bai turned and left the secret room.

He walked back along the stone wall and searched for a few minutes at the other end before finally finding another stone chamber. Here, there were also murals and calligraphy, but they were much simpler and less ornate.

Ye Bai checked carefully and found that there was a gap in the wall, which seemed to be able to be pried open.

He tried to pry it open a few times, but found it difficult. He retreated to the door of the stone chamber and shouted inside, "You two, help me open it."

Yang Mi and Meng Ziyi walked over and looked at the door of the stone chamber.

Yang Mi stood on tiptoe and took a look: "I don't know how to pry the door open..."

Meng Ziyi was eager to try and said, "Let me do it, I can pick the lock!" She had learned the lock picking technique, but she was a child after all, so it was a bit difficult for her to do it.

Yang Mi gave her the key.

Meng Ziyi began to pry the stone door open with force, and after a series of crisp sounds, the stone door was pried open.

Yang Mi said in surprise: "It's actually open..."

She walked inside, but suddenly let out a piercing scream.

Ye Bai and Meng Ziyi were both startled by her and ran over.

There was a coffin in the stone house, but Yang Mi was trembling all over and her teeth were chattering.

Ye Bai supported her.

She pointed at the male corpse lying on the stone bed and said, "The coffin lid has been lifted off..."

Meng Ziyi was also shocked by the scene before him and stood there for a long time without moving.

In the coffin, a middle-aged man lay peacefully with his eyes closed.

His eyebrows and beard were already gray, and his facial features were ordinary. His skin was dark and rough, and his lips were slightly thick. At first glance, he looked unremarkable, even the kind of honest and simple person you would expect from an ordinary person.

Ye Bai frowned.

He knocked lightly on the stone wall and listened to the sound. The space inside the coffin was very narrow, only enough for one corpse to lie down.

The soil at the bottom of the coffin was very damp. Ye Bai suspected that the person had rotted after being buried.

He looked towards the center of the coffin, which was padded with soft cotton wool. The cotton wool had dried out and turned yellow, as if it had been corroded by a long time.

A patch of red appeared under the cotton wool.

There was a thin layer of dust at the bottom of the coffin.

Moreover, these powders appear to be a strange dark red color.

Yang Mi and Meng Ziyi also saw it clearly.

"Oh my God!" The two girls screamed at the same time and ran back, knocking over tables and chairs.

With two dull thuds, Yang Mi fell down, and Meng Ziyi fell beside her.

"Ouch……"

Both of them grimaced in pain.

Yang Mi looked up and said tearfully, "Ye Bai, let's leave!"

"We can't leave." Ye Bai smiled bitterly: "There must be a trap here."

He squatted on the ground, studying the mud and sand.

Yang Mi got up, pulled Ye Bai's sleeve, and asked urgently: "Brother Ye, what should we do?"

"Just let it sit." Ye Bai said lazily.

"what?"

"Don't panic, we'll solve the problem slowly." Ye Bai comforted her, his tone still indifferent: "Go and close the door."

Yang Mi didn't dare to disobey the order, so she walked over obediently, closed the door, and locked it from the outside.

Meng Ziyi walked over timidly.

Ye Bai patted her head and signaled her not to be afraid.

"These are the bones of an ancient man. I wonder who buried him here. His identity must be extraordinary, otherwise he wouldn't have such a strong aura.

There must be a trap here. If we trigger it rashly, all three of us will be killed," Ye Bai said.

Both women were terrified and listened to him blankly.

"I just looked at these calligraphy and paintings. They all have traps. We can't stay here for too long, or we'll be trapped and die sooner or later." Ye Bai continued, "You two should retreat into the cave first to avoid getting hurt. I'll decrypt the trap."

As he spoke, he outlined the pattern with wire mesh.

The wire mesh wound tighter and tighter, becoming as dense as a spider web. Finally, it formed a cylinder, the top of which was nailed into the crack of the rock.

"I'll add some more fire to see if I can burn this picture." Ye Bai said.

"Brother Ye, can I go with you?" Yang Mi said worriedly.

Ye Bai shook his head.

Yang Mi and Meng Ziyi, one a delicate girl, the other a delicate daughter of a wealthy family, were completely unable to resist such a mechanism, let alone one that could hurt people.
