"Hey..." Ye Qiqi couldn't help but shrink his head when he looked at Mo Hanqing's face that looked like a thousand-year-old ice cube.
The old man looked at the two of them with a smile, stroking his beard and not knowing what he was thinking.
"Senior." Mo Hanqing stared at Ye Qiqi for a while, then turned around, saluted the old man with a gray beard, and said in a respectful voice: "Senior, can you tell us the passage back to the ground? .”
"The passage back..." The old man hesitated for a moment, then looked at the two of them and said, "Actually, it doesn't hurt to tell you, but you can't get out now."
"Why?" Mo Hanqing asked with a frown.
"The entrance to this mausoleum will only be opened in the morning on the first and fifteenth day of the lunar month. It cannot be opened on other days." The old man stooped and walked back and forth for a few steps beside the long table made of pure gold, and then gently He sighed and said: "Since this is a mausoleum, the entrance will not be easy to find. You must have walked into the maze outside the mausoleum before, so you got lost, and fell in again by chance. Authentic, I finally found it here.”
Will it only be opened on the first and fifteenth day of the Lunar New Year
Mo Hanqing's delicate eyebrows frowned slightly. He thought about it carefully. The moon last night seemed to be almost full. If so, today would be the fifteenth day.
In other words, if the entrance and exit of this mausoleum is to be opened again, it will have to wait until the first day of the next month.
Then wouldn't they have to stay in this mausoleum for half a month?
"Senior, what you mean is... we have to wait here for half a month?" Mo Hanqing hesitated for a moment, then asked.
"Yes." The old man nodded, with a helpless expression on his face.
"Huh? You have to wait here for half a month??" Ye Qiqi stared at the old man in front of her with wide eyes. The little hand that was about to throw the fruit into her mouth stopped. She said anxiously: "No. Yeah, grandpa will be anxious if he doesn’t go back for such a long time.”
"There's nothing we can do about it..." the old man spread his hands and said with a troubled expression: "This is originally a mausoleum. All the designs are to prevent tomb robbers from disturbing the rest of the deceased. The entrance and exit of the mausoleum is only open for a month. It was opened for two days in order to trap those who came to rob the tomb here."
"But... but..." Ye Qiqi said, her big watery eyes turned red: "If I don't go back for such a long time, what should I do if grandpa is anxious? When I go back, grandpa will definitely scold me. "
"Ahem...this..."
Seeing that Ye Qiqi's tears were about to fall, the old man quickly turned his attention to Mo Hanqing for help.
Mo Hanqing frowned slightly, his eyes fell on Ye Qiqi in front of him for a long time, then he sighed lowly and said, "Don't cry."
"Well..." Ye Qiqi raised her head and looked at him, sniffing hard, trying not to cry, but she couldn't hold it back and the tears still fell.
The crystal clear tear rolled down her fair and tender cheek, hit the ground, and instantly smudged into a small dot.
"Hey... Qiqi, don't cry..." The old man immediately hurriedly said to her: "Here... I have a secret book of peerless martial arts. Do you want to read it?"
