Chapter 272 Mercury Steam Mechanism!
"mercury......."
Hu Jizhou took a breath of cold air!
Even experienced tomb robbers are most afraid of three types of mechanisms: quicksand on the tomb roof, chain flip panels and mercury!
Among them, the quicksand on the tomb roof and the chain flipping boards will kill the tomb robbers in an instant...only mercury will make the tomb robbers' life worse than death!
This is exactly why Hu Jizhou was afraid!
If the golden toad sprays out mercury...given the extensive network of ditches in this tomb.
Mercury will fill the entire tomb in an instant!
"Brother Qin An... your idea is a bit tricky! The wind is blowing!"
This is the jargon in the tomb-robbing business.
It means that the mechanism is too dangerous and you should run away quickly.
Hu Jizhou didn't want to stay in this tomb any longer! He was a little afraid that he would trigger the mercury mechanism without paying attention!
however.
Qin An calmly took back the black gold ancient sword.
He looked at the golden toad on the platform!
"A mercury mechanism... If this were my tomb! I'd definitely let the tomb robbers trigger the mechanism as soon as their feet touched the ground! But this golden toad hasn't moved for a long time! Could it be that the mechanism is broken?"
Qin An couldn't understand.
He knew it was a mercury mechanism.
But I don’t understand why the intimidation mechanism hasn’t been triggered yet?
at this time.
The archaeological team's voices could be heard from above, echoing in the empty tomb.
"Brother Qin An...how's the situation down there? Is nothing wrong?" There was a hint of anxiety in Xu Guozhou's voice.
no way.
Qin An and Hu Jizhou took too long to go down there!
And there was no movement for half a day...it was hard not to suspect that something unexpected had happened.
Seeing that Qin An was still thinking, Hu Jizhou responded for him:
"We're fine! Mr. Xu...don't come down yet! There's something strange down there! It's most likely a mercury trap!"
The voice just fell.
It suddenly became quiet up there!
Those who can join the archaeological team are not fools (except Yang Lele), they all understand what mercury means.
To know!
The reason why the Mausoleum of the First Qin Emperor is so famous is because there is a mercury mechanism inside!
This is what frightened countless tomb robbers... Until today, no one dares to enter!
"Brother Hu...if you are afraid, go up first! Let me take a look at the platform under the feet of the golden toad!" Qin An said lightly.
He is used to working alone.
"This...what kind of talk is this?" Hu Jizhou blushed: "Let's go together!"
Subsequently.
The two of them hunched over.
His eyes were fixed on the golden toad on the platform.
He walked slowly towards the platform...for fear of triggering the mechanism!
"Brother Hu! Do you know? In fact, ordinary mercury is difficult to harm the human body. What we need to pay attention to is organic mercury and mercury compounds." Qin An said as he walked.
"Brother Qin An...how do you have time to explain this to me?"
Hu Jizhou's face was full of black lines.
It's like someone wants to chop off your dick, but he tells you that since you are single, the dick is useless to you, so it's just a one or two inch thing that can be chopped off!
however.
Qin An shook his head.
"Just after hearing Elder Xu's voice, I remembered the conditions for triggering this mercury mechanism."
Hu Jizhou was puzzled: "What conditions?"
"Weight!" Qin An said calmly, "The tomb owner doesn't want our lives! He wants the lives of everyone in our archaeological team! If everyone had gotten down just now... this mercury trap would have been ready to go off!"
Hear Qin An's explanation.
Hu Jizhou couldn't help but feel a chill down his spine!
Only then did he realize that the tombs he had robbed before were just small robbings... He could avoid many of the mechanisms in the tombs by heart, but every step of the mechanism in the Foyinkuguo Tomb was beyond his expectations.
Conversation room.
The two of them came under the golden toad statue!
Hu Jizhou still didn't know what Qin An's intention was, so he just kept silent and watched Qin An perform.
The platform under the statue is three meters high!
Plus the golden toad statue is one meter tall!
Adding up, it is four meters high!
Qin An first walked around the platform and found nothing, then he jumped onto the golden toad's mouth.
When Hu Jizhou saw Qin An jump four meters high, he simply closed his eyes.
It’s been a long journey.
Brother Qin An has already shocked him too much!
........
On the golden toad's mouth.
Qin An lowered his head and looked carefully at the statue under his feet.
After a while!
He thought to himself, “As expected!”
This golden toad statue looks good on the outside but is actually weak on the inside!
It's clearly empty inside...only the belly is filled with flaming oil!
How can this be called a mercury mechanism?
It's clearly a mercury steam mechanism!
If the mercury on the ground were to encounter a raging fire... the mercury would evaporate! The archaeologists would breathe in the air again!
That’s when the Golden Immortal Daluo will arrive!
It can't be saved!
