Below the entrance of the cave is a very deep passage, slanting downwards. After the two were sucked in, they slid down the passage and fell into a small pool without even having time to react.
"Where is this place?" Ling Qingyu hadn't got up yet, just asked, and was smashed down by Ying Jiu who fell in afterwards.
"The master!" Ying Jiu hurriedly dragged Ling Qingyu up, and asked, "Are you alright?"
"It's okay." After spitting out, Ling Qingyu looked around again and asked, "Where is this?"
There is still some light from the hole where they fell, and it can be seen that this is a square space, the water is not very deep, and there is a door on one side.
"Go up quickly." Yan Qi yelled, supporting Ling Qingyu just as she was about to throw her up, the top had already creaked and closed with a bang, blocking all the light from the outside.
It was pitch black, Ling Qingyu unconsciously hugged Yan Qi's neck, and said, "Here? Could it be some kind of grave or something?"
After being silent for a while, Yan Qi laughed and said: "The head of the family, following you is always indispensable for this kind of thing."
"What's the meaning?"
"If I'm right, this is the treasure house of King Wuyue." Yan Qi's voice was faintly smiling, but Ling Qingyu's face was darkened in the darkness.
"You know? You know that the treasure house is here?" Ling Qingyu asked unconsciously, no wonder you didn't let me go to the lake.
"No, I don't know where it is. The family picture was taken away when Wang Yi hunted us down, but my father said that if you look for it based on that picture, you won't find it at all. As for the treasure, my father told me before he died that the treasure is probably in Tianmu Mountain, but I swear, don’t take the initiative to find it, and the descendants of my Qian family, it’s best not to come to find this treasure.” There is light along the front In the image left by time, Yan Qi carried Ling Qingyu and walked towards the entrance of the cave, saying: "Because this treasure has countless traps, in fact, it is to lure and kill those greedy people."
"Get a treasure and not let your descendants get it? Your ancestors are really weird." Ling Qingyu muttered.
"The meaning of the ancestors is probably to keep us descendants away from those disputes. In order to prevent the Jiangdong land from being destroyed by the flames of war, the ancestors automatically surrendered to the Great Zhou and just became an idle nobleman, haha," Yan Qi sneered twice, Continued: "King Wuyue used to be the richest in the world, and after he surrendered, he handed over a treasury full of gold and silver treasures, but the emperor of the Great Zhou Dynasty didn't believe that the wealth of Wuyue Kingdom was that. They thought that the Qian family still left most of the property. So I kept asking, and finally asked Wang Yi to kill all of our direct descendants."
Behind the door was a pitch-black passage, and the three of them didn't carry anything like a torch, so they could only walk forward by touching the stone wall.
"Maybe this is not the treasure of the Qian family, but just someone's tomb?" Ling Qingyu shrank into Yan Qi's arms and said.
"Why are you chasing those fish?" Yan Qi asked.
"The pattern they rotate is very interesting, like a copper coin, ah! Could it be this, money?" Ling Qingyu suddenly realized.
"I wasn't sure at first, but the terrain here, think about it, the surrounding is a circle, and there is only a lake in the middle." Yan Qi hugged her closer, the shirt on her body was already thin and soaked in water , but this corridor is very gloomy and cold.
"So you and Yan San won't let me come down?" Ling Qingyu asked. Is it okay to just say no to this kind of thing? If she had known earlier, she would not have been so reckless.
"Yan San didn't let you go into the water because he was afraid that if you were hot or cold, it would be bad for your health. I won't say it, it's just because I just figured it out." Yan Qi stopped, and then said to Ying Jiu: "Jiu , give me the sword."
Ying Jiu took off the long sword hanging from his waist, and fumbled towards the direction of Yan Qi's voice.
Yan Qi put Ling Qingyu down and asked Ying Jiu to support her, then took a step forward and pulled out the long sword. The swords of the shadows were all specially made by Zhou Tan. They were made of black iron brought from Treasure Island. Then, a fluorescent light flashed in the dark corridor.
The fluorescence was only for a moment, and was obliterated by the darkness again, but it was enough for Yan Qi to see the densely packed corpses in the corridor ahead.
Yan Qi frowned slightly. Although this place was only a hundred or so years old, the corpses were well preserved. At first glance, he thought it was a group of living people crowded in front of it.
Fumbling with his hands on the wall, he found a lampstand, Yan Qi said to Ying Jiu: "Jiu, blindfold the master."
"Why?" Ling Qingyu was about to ask again, Ying Jiu had already torn off her sleeves and made a cloth belt to cover her eyes, and with the flash of light just now, he also saw a little bit of the situation ahead, those things were indeed not suitable for being in charge Look.
"Okay." After covering Ling Qingyu's eyes, Ying Jiu took her hand.
Yan Qi slashed the tip of the sword across the wall, and some sparks came out from the fierce friction. With a flick of Yan Qi's finger, the sparks were bounced into the oil lamp, and lit up with a bang.
The oil lamp was not very bright, but it shone faintly, casting the standing corpses into a darker shadow.
Looking at the condition of the oil lamp, there is not much air left in the corridor, Ying Jiu said: "Qi Ye, I will take the lead."
Yan Qi nodded, handed the sword back to him, then hugged Ling Qingyu, and said, "Low your head."
Ling Qingyu didn't make another sound, and buried her face in his chest. Since they didn't let her see it, there must be something horrifying to see here.
Those corpses were all standing up, filling the passageway, looking at the dark complexion, one could tell that the poison of the corpses was serious, to go there, the first thing to do was to put these corpses down.
Yan Qi took two steps back, Ying Jiu had already passed by him, and the sword light approached like a densely woven light net.
Strangled by his sword net, the corpse shattered into pieces and fell to the ground, splashing black corpse water everywhere. He had already taken off his shirt when he got into the water, the body water splashed on his naked skin and the pain was unbearable, Ying Jiu didn't dodge or dodge, he just moved forward, there wasn't much air in this tunnel, and the coming passage was blocked If you go up, then you can only kill from here.
After his body was completely blackened by the corpse water, a stone door at the end of the corridor appeared after the last row of corpses fell down.
Ying Jiu pushed the stone door hard, and after a creaking sound, the stone door slowly opened to both sides.
"Nine." Yan Qi shouted loudly.
Ying Jiu's heart was shocked, and he immediately fell down, a rain of arrows had already been shot from the stone gate, piercing him into a forest of arrows.
"Don't move." Yan Qi shouted to Ying Jiu who wanted to get up. After the rain of arrows, she was quiet for a while, and then burst into a rain of stones. The rain of stones was even denser, and some of them brushed off Ying Jiu's prostrate back. , has drawn a series of tiny bloodstains.
After the rain of stones had completely stopped, Yan Qi came to the stone gate and asked, "How?"
Ying Jiu spat, got up, and said, "It's okay."
When the stone door opened, there was a faint flowing breath, although it was very faint, it also indicated that there was air circulation here, Yan Qi was slightly relieved, and said: "Go back to the pool and wash the corpse, that thing is very poisonous."
"Yes." Ying Jiu was a little dizzy while supporting the stone wall, stabilized her body, then turned around and walked towards the pool.
"Is Xiao Jiu okay?" Ling Qingyu asked worriedly after hearing their conversation.
"It's okay." Yan Qi replied, tore off the corner of her clothes and pulled out an arrowhead, then picked up a little lamp oil to make a fire, and walked slowly into the stone gate.
Behind the stone door is a very wide space, Yan Qi found the lamp holders on the wall, lit two lamps, and the faint light came on, illuminating the stone room with many ghostly shadows.
Seeing the light flickering slightly, Yan Qi found two more lamp sockets and lit them up.
Now the inside of the stone room is much brighter. This is a circular space, many huge stones are placed on the ground as if at random, and there is a strange picture on the top of the stone room, shining a little bit of light under the reflection of the light.
"Put me down." Ling Qingyu had already untied his eye straps, and said while looking at the star map on the stone room. Yes, the one on the top of the stone chamber is actually an astronomical map, and the twenty-eight constellations and the Big Dipper are very clear.
"Yan Qi, help me see if there are words on these stones?" Ling Qingyu asked while looking at the star map.
Yan Qi jumped onto the stones and saw that there were characters engraved in the middle of those stones, and said: "There are words, this one says Jingsu."
"That's right, this is an astronomical map, and these stones should be placed in a corresponding one." Ling Qingyu said.
"Okay, where should I put this one?" Yan Qi jumped off the rock and asked.
"Well," Ling Qingyu looked at the picture and walked to Jingsu's position, but found that there was already a stone there, and said unconsciously: "Damn! I have to play pushing the house first!"
"What pushes the house?" Yan Qi asked puzzled.
"Your ancestors are really tortoises. Look, the stones here are all next to each other. Basically, there are already stones in the corresponding positions. That is to say, if you want to put the stones into their corresponding points, you need to There must be a corresponding pushing sequence." Ling Qingyu said.
"Isn't it enough to pile up these stones?" Yan Qi squatted down to lift the stone with all his strength, and then found that the stone was actually fixed to the floor, and there were only a series of notches to let the stones move.
"Don't bother, come, tell me the words on each stone." Ling Qingyu squatted down resignedly, and began to draw a grid on the ground. God knows what annoys her the most is playing this game, it's so exhausting!
After Yan Qi read all the words on the stone to Ling Qingyu, Ying Jiu also rushed over. Seeing that his complexion was a little pale and his lips were bruised, Yan Qi asked softly, "Can you hold on?"
"Yeah." Ying Jiu nodded, the corpse water had been washed clean, but the stones were also poisonous, and now the wound on his back was itchy and numb.
Ling Qingyu calculated for nearly an hour before he calculated the route, rubbed his numb legs, raised his head and said, "It's ok."
"I'll do it." Resisting Ying Jiu who was about to get up, Yan Qi asked, "The first piece?"
Push the stones into place one by one in order, and after the last piece was pushed into the corresponding point, there was a creaking sound at the corner, and a stone door opened at the corner.
Yan Qi looked at some black substances remaining in the original place after pushing the stones, and was afraid for a while, as long as a wrong stone was pushed, the explosives under these stones would detonate, blowing people to pieces.
