There was another fork in the road, Zhan Changfeng said: "Hide it well."
Jiang Wei nodded, collected the luminous pearl, and jumped into a corridor.
After his vision was dark, Zhan Changfeng turned into another road, climbed the wall with his fingers, turned over with a kite, and stuck himself on the opposite corner of the wall and the roof. He took a deep breath and held it in without spitting it out.
Zhu Yan's hair was white, her hooves were like fire, but there was a dim green light surrounding her body. It was simply that the green light was not enough to reach her height.
Zhan Changfeng stared at Zhu Yan wandering at the fork.
It seemed to be very sensitive to human breath. After Zhan Changfeng restrained his breath in this way, it lost its target.
Zhu Yan roared impatiently, walked into the corridor where Zhan Changfeng was, and walked slowly into the depths. The four warrior statues followed him step by step, and the heavy footsteps echoed in the tomb passage for a long time.
After all, Zhan Changfeng had lost his internal strength. Not to mention how long he had to hold his breath, he couldn't hold on for long just by doing the difficult action of pressing his limbs against the wall.
But this kind of necessary persistence will not be transferred because of inability. No matter how hard it is to persist, you have to persist.
Just when her mind was dizzy and her vision was shaking, a blur of faint green suddenly appeared in front of her eyes. She was refreshed, and it turned out that Zhu Yan returned alone and silently!
"hold head high!"
Zhu Yan turned around at the fork a few times, then re-entered the tomb passage, and soon disappeared into the darkness.
Zhan Changfeng waited for another half-quarter of an hour, and after making sure that it would not come back, he rolled to the ground and took a few deep breaths.
"Your Highness," Jiang Wei took out the Night Pearl after confirming it was safe, "Where should we go now?"
"Front."
"Isn't this the way the ferocious beast went?"
Zhan Changfeng said firmly: "This is the direction."
She didn't explain much. In fact, she wasn't sure that this road would be accessible, but the direction was correct.
Worrying about Zhu Yan who was going first, Zhan Changfeng and the other two just hung at a distance. After half a stick of incense, a dark orange fire appeared in front of them. Looking out, they saw another tomb with the middle door wide open.
It's just that the tomb seems to have been pushed open by something with great force from the inside, and half of the door is tilted outward.
Zhan Changfeng felt the wind blowing, and felt more and more certain in his heart.
She entered the tomb and took a look, and sure enough, there was a big hole in the wall of the tomb, connecting to another space.
"Your Highness, what's going on with this coffin?"
Zhan Changfeng caught a glimpse of the fire flashing on the wall and shouted: "Put it down!"
"..." Jiang Wei had already picked up the coffin head and placed the ever-burning lamp. Hearing this, he quickly put it back. I don't know whether it was because he was too strong or for other reasons, but the ever-burning lamp made of shark oil flickered suddenly. There is a tendency to fade away.
The coffin had been parked in the center of the tomb. Zhan Changfeng noticed it as soon as she arrived, but deliberately did not study it because she noticed that nearly half of the complex and magnificent patterns on the coffin coincided with the patterns in the cauldron.
According to Song Shizi, the pattern on the cauldron comes from the Gaotian clan who are good at poison.
Of course, the origin of this coffin is self-evident.
It’s better to touch less of the things belonging to the Gaotian Clan.
"Leave it alone."
Zhan Changfeng returned his attention to the wall.
The wall was extremely thin and seemed to have been built later. Based on the analysis of scattered debris on the ground, there should have been a door.
She compared the heights, and it was not difficult to guess that the real place where the four warrior statues and Zhu Yan came from was the space behind the tomb.
In this way, her constant feeling of disobedience was explained.
Why are the statues of warriors in dragon-armor uniforms from the founding emperor's time crowded into a small tomb?
Why is the bronze statue of Zhu Yan, regarded as a mascot by the founding emperor, placed together with the cauldron of the Gaotian clan?
Because they're not there.
There is still a tomb passage behind the wall, but this tomb passage is completely different from the tomb passages I have experienced before.
It is extremely long and wide, and can accommodate two carriages running side by side. It has a highly skilled arched roof, engraved with dragon patterns and auspicious clouds, and there is an everlasting lantern every ten meters on the wall. For those who don't know, I thought it was a palace that was brightly lit. corridor.
This style is right.
While Zhan Changfeng breathed a sigh of relief, he became more solemn at the same time. How did the Gaotian Clan come from and find the underground palace left by the founding emperor?
If you want to fight for it, why bother to set up a fake tomb palace with rampant agencies outside the underground palace.
If it is to protect...
Impossible, the Gaotian clan appeared a hundred years after the founding of the country, and the underground palace already existed at that time.
When Zhan Changfeng and the two were exploring the real underground palace tomb passage, a pale and delicate hand extinguished the ever-burning lamp on the lid of the coffin. The coffin began to tremble, as if something inside was beating on the lid.
"Baby, be good."
At the end of the tomb passage, the field of view suddenly expands. The top of the stone is the sky and the vast expanse is the earth. Among them, there are many terracotta warriors and horses holding swords, axes and axes, like thousands of troops.
But if you look closely, you can see that these terracotta warriors and horses have broken arms or broken legs, and there are weapons and mud scattered on the ground, as if they had suffered a fierce fight.
Zhan Changfeng felt bad as he walked among these terracotta warriors and horses.
At the very front of the Terracotta Warriors and Horses is a flat platform.
On the high platform, a bronze statue of Zhu Yan stands with its head held high, and warrior figurines ten feet tall guard the four corners with swords. Behind them is a seven-foot-tall heavy iron gate, which you can tell at a glance cannot be opened by human power.
Jiang Wei stared at the Zhu Yan warriors closely, fearing that they would come back to life again.
But they didn't move. A mechanism did.
After the gears turned, the door of a tomb on the side opened, followed by high-fives.
A group of people wrapped in black cloaks slowly came out. The leader high-fived and laughed, his voice was old and rough, "Thanks to the blood of the former king, these weird things will be quiet when Your Highness the Crown Prince comes."
When Zhan Changfeng saw the snake-shaped embroidery on their cloaks, he felt like he had seen it somewhere before, "Who are you?"
"I am the founder of the Gaotian clan, Wu Bing..." He lifted off his cloak, revealing a face with ravines, and his eyes were pious and fanatical, "Wuxing Mountain."
Wu Xingshan, the general of the founding emperor, the outsider who presented the Dragon Armor Divine Medal.
History was concealed. She didn't know that Wu Xingshan could poison.
In fact, there are some signs. Isn't the snake-shaped embroidery the badge of Wu Xingshan's troops?
And the former king Wu Bing spoke of was not the old emperor, but the founding emperor.
Zhan Changfeng: "Your ancestor was a famous general in the Yin Dynasty, and he was very loyal. I don't want his descendants to do things that forget their ancestors."
"Your Highness has misunderstood. We are acting according to the words of our ancestors." Wu Bing looked gentle, but in fact he had no good intentions. "Your Highness, please just surrender. It will be very bad if you get hurt."
"Grandpa, you once said that the bronze statue of Zhu Yan was carried by the emperor day and night and nourished by the warmth of the Ziwei Emperor. It took eight hundred years to become a spirit. It became a spirit later. Who knows its bloodline, unless..."
The young man is tall and handsome, with a peach-like face and a jade-like face, but what he said is full of meaning, "Unless she also has the imperial aura of Ziwei and is born to be an emperor."
Wu Bing's eyes lit up, as if he was enlightened. He looked at Zhan Changfeng and said, "What Cheng'er said makes sense."
His gaze was like a ghost fire in the tomb passage, scorching and dark, with a chilling meaning, "When I heard you were coming, I really wanted to lead you into the tomb and kill you, but listening to what Wu Yun said, you seemed to have discovered What's wrong with him?"
"Xiao Zhao" escorted Song Shizi and Knocking Mountain Guest forward. Their faces were pale and their steps were weak, as if they had been poisoned.
Wu Bing seemed to be making things up. Zhan Changfeng was in a disadvantageous situation, so naturally he could delay it as long as he could, so he replied in a good-tempered manner: "It's wrong."
"What's wrong?" Wu Bing didn't react for a moment.
"The road went astray." Zhan Changfeng said, "The night before I entered the mountain, I determined the direction based on the stars. However, the mountain road that led me here went astray. If the road goes astray, the tomb I found would naturally be fake."
Wu Bing chuckled and said sarcastically, "You know the tomb is fake, why do you still come down? Isn't there just an urn in front of you? Just crawl in!"
"His Royal Highness is too arrogant."
Zhan Changfeng corrected him calmly, "It's not arrogance. The emperors of our lineage all have a characteristic. Whatever they hide, they would rather destroy it than let others get it."
"If you're right, this underground palace has no entrance," she smiled. "I just checked. The wall of the outer tomb passage is nine meters thick and is made of the strongest black granite. I'm afraid it took you several years to dig it. Get out of that wall.”
Wu Bing's face twitched, and there was anger in his eyes.
Zhan Changfeng was not convinced, "I chose to enter your tomb. Once I get here, I want to see who is causing trouble behind the scenes. Instead of you planning it, I might as well test it myself."
"Secondly, the two tombs are separated by a wall. Maybe someone has helped me clear the way," Zhan Changfeng added, "The hole is quite big, making it easy to transport large items."
Wu Bing's face turned dark.
"Xiao Zhao" was also dissatisfied, "Then how did you know that I had a problem? I asked myself that I didn't show any flaws, and I only said a word to you."
"That's exactly what he said." Zhan Changfeng looked at him coldly and looked down upon him, "My people are the most disciplined people. They never say hello to others before coming to see me."
"Xiao Zhao" felt like there was a lump in his throat. Didn't he just call "Lao Gao" first? Can't you consider that I didn't see you at first sight? !
His grandfather's, this kind of self-centered guy is the most annoying.
The Gaotian clan felt some malice in front of this child who was not as tall as their chest, and they felt that they were shorter.
Wu Bing said coldly, "How could a yellow-haired boy know how powerful the Gaotian clan is? Hum, your coming here is no accident, it is really God's will!"
Zhan Changfeng had nothing to say. The old man insisted on comforting himself with God's will. What could she do?
Outside the tomb
Wong Tai Sin hummed as he climbed the mountain. Is this damn child sure he wanted him to escort him instead of playing with him? !
Huang Taixian's shadow technique has a distance limit. If it is too far away, he can't control it. However, Zhan Changfeng is not good at it. The farther he goes, the farther he goes, and he can hardly sense it.
What else could I do? I had to finish what I promised on my knees.
So Zhan Changfeng circled around the ground seven times and eight times, and Wong Tai Sin climbed over the mountains and ridges on the ground with an old bone.
He looked up at the top of the mountain, and his whole body ached.
"well!"
