Partridge Whistle then asked Red Girl, "Red Girl, can you open this lock?"

Red Girl walked up to the giant lock.
He carefully picked up the jade lock and examined it closely for a moment.
Then he pressed his ear against it and gently tapped it, listening to the internal structure.
But the more she listened...
His brows furrowed, eventually knotting together.
Seeing this, Partridge Whistle and the others realized that things might not be so easy, and their hearts tightened.
quite a while.
Hong Guniang stood up, her face solemn.
"How is it?" Partridge Whistle asked with concern. "Can it be opened?"
The young woman shook her head heavily and replied, "No."
"This is a love lock, with the locking teeth inside tightly connected to the mechanism inside the door."
"Once the locking teeth are activated, the mechanism inside the door will be triggered, regardless of whether it is opened or not."
"By the time......"
Hong paused,
"The quicksand and even poisonous fumes hidden behind the door will pour out instantly and engulf us."
"..."
Partridge Whistle and the others were shocked to hear this!
Partridge Whistle felt a little irritated.
The tomb chamber is clearly behind this tomb door.
The Muchen Pearl is very likely hidden inside!
But now they're stuck on a lock.
When had the bandit leader ever encountered such frustration? Feeling extremely indignant, he tentatively asked:
"Then why don't we just chisel out this tomb door?"
"Anyway, it's made of jade, so the texture shouldn't be too hard."
After saying that, he stepped forward and knocked on the tomb door, judging from the echo that it was indeed not very hard.
Hong Gu 877 quickly shook her head and said, "No way!"
"It was deliberately set up as a jade tomb entrance to impress you!"
"No one knows where the mechanism is hidden inside the tomb door. If you make even the slightest mistake, it will immediately trigger the mechanism!"
"Tsk!" Partridge Whistle sighed in displeasure, cursing, "This won't work, that won't work!"
"What should I do?"
Everyone could feel Partridge Whistle's anger, and no one dared to speak again.
At this time.
Li Xiaohu stepped forward and patted Partridge Whistle on the shoulder, saying, "Brother Partridge Whistle, I understand you."
"The thing I've been searching for my whole life is now right in front of me. I would be excited too."
"But the more this is the case, the less we should rush things!"
"The tomb is fraught with danger and peril. If we take one wrong step, we will be doomed."
"We still need to proceed with caution and take things one step at a time."
Partridge Whistle looked into Li Xiaohu's clear eyes and instantly sobered up.
The anger in my heart gradually dissipated!
He couldn't help but give a wry smile, first apologizing to the others, and then solemnly thanking Li Xiaohu.
He considered himself to be always careful and cautious in his actions, and dared not be careless.
But when he actually faced the Muchen Pearl, which was "within reach," he still couldn't contain his excitement.
If it weren't for Li Xiaohu's persuasion...
I've really let myself go my own way!
The consequences are unimaginable!
It doesn't matter if I perish, but if Old Yangren and Hua Ling are buried with me, then there will be no more Mountain Moving Taoists in the world!
He became the eternal sinner of the Mountain Moving Clan!
Think of this.
Partridge Whistle held Li Xiaohu in even higher esteem.
He then bowed to him again in gratitude.
"Thanks to Brother Xiaohu for reminding me, I was able to pull back from the brink!"
Seeing that Partridge Whistle had calmed down, Li Xiaohu nodded in satisfaction.
anyway.
How should the group enter the tomb?
Li Xiaohu said, "Actually, you're all overthinking it."
"Just like Hong Gu said, this jade tomb door is a decoy!"
"It's just bait to lure you in; it's a fake door! There's probably no tomb passage behind it at all!"
"A fake door?" The others were taken aback upon hearing this!
"Since it's a fake door, how do we get into the tomb chamber inside?"
Everyone was puzzled.
Li Xiaohu smiled calmly, pointed to the floor beneath his feet, and asked, "Haven't you figured it out yet?"
Partridge Whistle suddenly understood.
They're being too hasty; they've even forgotten the most basic method of tomb raiding: digging a tunnel!
"Yeah, right!" Partridge Whistle chuckled sheepishly and said, "We can just dig down from below!"
Li Xiaohu laughed again.
Partridge Whistle guessed wrong again.
In fact, the passage to the tomb was right beneath their feet; it was already there, and they didn't need to dig it at all.
but.
He's too lazy to explain anymore.
He walked alone to the entrance of the jade tomb and began to walk with his head down.
Every now and then, he would stomp on the stone slab to test the ground or space beneath it.
"Dong dong!"
Suddenly, two muffled echoes resounded!
Seeing this, Li Xiaohu smiled and exclaimed in delight, "It's hollow underneath!"
Partridge Whistle's eyes lit up instantly!
He took out a whirlwind shovel and pried open the stone slab at his feet.
Beneath the stone slab was a patch of muddy ground.
Partridge Whistle clapped his hands forcefully, and two more muffled "bang" echoed.
They concluded that there was definitely a space below!
The cyclone shovel quickly and efficiently removed all the soil.
A square opening was revealed.
Partridge Whistle first threw in a tinderbox.
They discovered that the entrance to the cave was vertically downwards, about two zhang (approximately 6.6 meters) deep, and then it turned towards the back of the jade tomb door.
It seems to lead directly to the burial chamber behind the jade tomb door!
Partridge Whistle was overjoyed!
