Chapter 1633: Get Bricks
This time it was too fast for her.

Chen Xinxue couldn't help but spread out a hand to grab it, and just caught a strand of soft hair. She didn't think much about it, just like pulling on a horse's mane to maintain balance.

"Hey! Don't pull my hair!" Ye Feng underneath him let out a strange cry.

"Sorry! Sorry!" Chen Xinxue quickly let go of her hand and carefully held the wall.

At this time, she was getting closer to the trapezoidal crack, and she could see clearly the appearance of the masonry. Sure enough, the color was slightly different from the stone next to it, as if it was built later.

Could this be the right way to the underground palace gate?

"Go on." Zeng Zhen handed over the duck-billed hoe from below.

Chen Xinxue took it and asked worriedly: "Can you still hold on?"

"No problem, just dig."

The sense of stability from the soles of Chen Xinxue's feet has not changed at all. Ye Feng is standing like a big mountain without any shaking, which makes Chen Xinxue feel at ease.

I didn't expect that his body bones, which looked so fragile, were actually quite strong!
Chen Xinxue's head was spinning with random thoughts, and then she began to carefully use a duck-billed hoe to open up the cracked bricks bit by bit.

After dozens of hoeings, fine beads of sweat appeared on Chen Xinxue's forehead.

This kind of strenuous work would be impossible on flat ground. Now standing on one person, it is inconvenient to move, it is difficult to exert force under the feet, and we have to worry that the gravel picked up will hit Ye Feng below, so it is still very strenuous. of.

After finally opening a small crack the size of a finger, Chen Xinxue put in her fingers and pulled hard. She found that she still didn't have enough strength, so she could only put the hoe side of the duck-bill hoe in and use it as a lever to pry it up.

The effect of this was obvious, gravel fell like rain, covering Ye Feng's head, and his black hair suddenly turned white.

Ye Feng coughed a few times, but heard Chen Xinxue say happily: "It's a piece."

Chen Xinxue put her elbows on the wall to stabilize her body, and then used her hands to move out the brick bit by bit.

The green brick was much larger than expected. Chen Xinxue had done a lot of rough and heavy work at the archaeological site. She considered herself to be a well-known female man, but it still felt difficult to hold it in her hand.

"Zeng Zhen, please help pick it up." Chen Xinxue said.

It's just that Zeng Zhen is petite and can barely reach the big blue brick even if he stands on tiptoes.

With the weight of the green brick, if Chen Xinxue let go, she would probably be hit on the head and bleed.

"No." When Chen Xinxue saw that Zeng Zhen's hand could only touch the brick surface, she knew there was nothing she could do, so she shrank back.

Ye Feng said: "Can't you just throw it down?"

"No! Every brick and tile here is a national cultural relic. There may be some important clues. How can I throw it away?"

Chen Xinxue regarded the blue brick as a treasure and refused to throw it directly to the ground.

The three of them were in a stalemate for a while.

Finally, Zeng Zhen came up with a solution, "Sister Xinxue, just stand the green brick upright on Ye Feng's head, and then ask him to take off the green brick and hand it to me."

"Good idea." Chen Xinxue turned the brick surface upright and placed it on Ye Feng's head, as if it was a temporary platform for placing bricks.

"Hey! Hey! Hey!" Ye Feng protested.

Before he could say anything, his head felt heavy. In order to prevent his troubled hair from suffering, Ye Feng hurriedly took down the green brick with his free left hand.

Zeng Zhen came over, took away the green brick, and put it aside with difficulty.With this process, the three of them worked together to remove all the cracked bricks and stones.

It's just that Ye Feng's hair was pressed flat in the middle, like a lawn that has been stepped on by hundreds of people.

Ye Feng felt his scalp hurt at first, but after receiving more than a dozen heavy blue bricks, it became numb.

At this time, more than half of the trapezoidal crack on the top was exposed, but it was not a dark hollow inside, but still a wall.

Ye Feng couldn't see the situation above, but Zeng Zhen and Chen Xinxue could see it clearly.

The two of them couldn't help but feel disappointed. Could it be that the wall had several layers built inside and outside?

How could an ordinary underground palace have such a strict layout?

Chen Xinxue told Ye Feng what she saw.

Ye Feng also felt a little confused. The wall was so thick that it far exceeded the specifications of a Xixia treasure house. It seemed like a mausoleum specially designed for Li Yuanhao.

When he thought of this, Ye Feng understood. No wonder a Xixia treasure house must be so complicated, with both internal and external treasures, as well as true and false treasures.

Ye Feng told Chen Xinxue his thoughts, and they both nodded.

Only in this way can the structure of this Xixia treasure house be explained.

Zeng Zhen said excitedly: "You said this is probably Li Yuanhao's mausoleum? That's not..."

Zeng Zhen was so excited that she didn't even finish what she said, but Ye Feng and Chen Xinxue knew what she had left unfinished.

The mausoleum and the Xixia treasure house are completely different concepts in the archaeological world.

When the Dingling Tombs of the Ming Tombs were excavated, it shocked the global archaeological community. It was a major event that year.

If the underground of this Xixia treasure house is really Li Yuanhao's mausoleum, the number of cultural relics and antiques inside will be a staggering number, far larger than the previously estimated value of the Xixia treasure house worth billions.

"Even the mausoleum can't be helped. There is nothing in this crack, only a wall. Let's go back first and bring more people down tomorrow."

Chen Xinxue had dug out the last blue brick at this time. It was a surprise to find this trapezoidal crack. Maybe she could find a way around the copper gate from here.

This kind of example is also common in underground palaces that need to be buried together. Because the owner of the underground palace died first, but his concubine has not passed away, so the underground palace needs to be opened a second time in the future.

In order to save effort, craftsmen will leave a passage for easy access, but it is usually well hidden and difficult to be discovered.

If Ye Feng hadn't noticed something strange outside the bronze door, I'm afraid Chen Xinxue and the others would still be busy at the bronze door.

"There is a beginning and an end. Let's take down the last brick and let's talk about it." On the one hand, Ye Feng felt sad about his hair. On the other hand, he felt that he had been stepped on by others and had his head pressed by a blue stone. All the hard work was not rewarded. What, it’s really a bit frustrating.

Chen Xinxue thought the same way. She pried out the last piece of bluestone and took it out with her hands.

Unexpectedly, the bluestone became extremely heavy as soon as it was picked up. Chen Xinxue almost lost her center of gravity and fell from Ye Feng's shoulder.

Fortunately, Ye Feng sensed something was wrong and took a step back from the wall to make some space.

Chen Xinxue leaned forward, leaning against the wall, still holding the bluestone with both hands. The two of them were like a ladder on the wall.

Zeng Zhen asked worriedly from below: "Sister Xinxue, are you okay?"
