My action of moving the knife was originally to prevent the formation from being activated. Unexpectedly, Miao Linglong, who was crying and making a fuss just now, would suddenly grab my arm and bite my wrist.
In the severe pain, I instinctively hit the other person on the temple.
"Stop!" Ji Mingyue couldn't hold back anymore and jumped towards me.
"Stop!" When Ji Mingyue shouted stop for the second time, not only had she reached the edge of the formation, but her hands also grabbed my wrist through the water mist.
I really scared Ji Mingyue.
My shot was too fast and with such force that it really hit the temple, the weakest part of the head, enough to kill Miao Linglong on the spot.
Ji Mingyue couldn't help but be afraid.
After I took action, I also reacted and quickly retracted most of my strength, but my fist still landed on Miao Linglong's head.
Miao Linglong was shaken several times by the punch and almost fell to the ground. Ji Mingyue's hands also grabbed my wrist at this time.
When I instinctively wanted to reach back and draw the knife, the ground under my feet suddenly collapsed along the circle of water without any warning, and the three of us fell into the ground together with the collapsed ground.
When I stood up from the pile of soil, the collapsed hole above my head was closing rapidly. In just the blink of an eye, the ground was completely closed, and I fell into a dark space where I couldn't even see my fingers.
The next moment, there were fires nearby. When I saw the ever-burning lamp attached to the cave wall, I realized that I had fallen into the passage of a large tomb.
I couldn't tell for a while how big the tomb was, but judging from the hundreds of lanterns extending inward on both sides of the tomb passage, it seemed that the tomb occupied at least half of the mountain.
I looked at Miao Linglong and said, "Is this the ancestral tomb of your Miao family?"
Except for the Miao family, I can't think of anyone who could build such a magnificent tomb here.
Miao Linglong looked at me with tears in her eyes: "Why should I tell you?"
"You'd better not talk to me!" I sneered and walked deeper into the tomb passage. Who knows, as soon as I took a step, the floor tiles under my feet sank two inches.
organ?
Shocked, I immediately stepped back and landed three meters away. Before I could stand still, I saw a stone tablet erected in the distance. It was engraved on it: On a certain day of a certain month of a certain year, three people came here, and two people came here. One girl, one boy, and one girl are descendants of the Miao family. If three people work together, they can get a secret. The three were separated and no one survived.
The person who carved the words on the stone tablet spoke very straightforwardly, as if he was afraid that we would not understand.
Miao Linglong said in a trembling voice: "This... this is the handwriting of the ancestor of the Miao family."
Only then did I notice that the writing on the stone tablet was exactly the same as the writing on the human skin letterhead. Could it be that this is really the stone monument left by Miao Xun and Miao Guangyi?
Miao Linglong hesitated for a long time before whispering to me: "Ye Jinglong, let's shake hands and make peace! The ancestor's order cannot be violated. He said that if we are separated, we will die, so this kind of thing will definitely happen."
I couldn't help but frown: This stone tablet came from a very strange place. I don't know if the words on it were written by Miao Guangyi. What if this was a trick used by Mr. Wu Xia?
Seeing that I was silent, Miao Linglong became anxious: "Ye Jinglong, why are you so stingy? I don't even care that you almost killed me. Don't you even have an attitude?"
I looked at Ji Mingyue and said, "I have no objection to shaking hands and making peace. But, the three of us are together, who should we listen to? We must make it clear first."
Three people working together? This is obviously a huge problem.
Without Ji Mingfei, the three of us might still be able to maintain a balance. However, it’s impossible for us to work together if Yuki Akira’s affairs are in the way.
Miao Linglong unexpectedly replied: "I listen to you!"
I was startled and couldn't help but smile. It seemed that although this Miao Linglong was a little willful, she was not stupid.
If Ji Mingyue could make a bet with her once, he could make it a second time.
If what happened just now happened again, she might not be able to survive.
Ji Mingyue sighed helplessly and said: "I also listen to you! However, I hope that you can help me rescue Ji Mingfei at the appropriate time."
"Okay!" I also know that now is not the time to stay and bargain.
I looked at Miao Linglong and said, "Is this the ancestral tomb of the Miao family?"
"Probably not!" Miao Linglong said: "From where we fell just now, we are still about a mile away from the ancestral tomb on the mountain road. Moreover, the ancestral tomb is an above-ground tomb, and it is not so big below."
I probably understood what Miao Linglong meant. He meant that Miao Guangyi's tomb was at the top of the mountain, and our location was at the foot of the mountain. Therefore, we should be diagonally below the ancestral tomb.
Ji Mingyue said: "Are you sure the ancestral tomb is an above-ground tomb?"
"Yeah!" Miao Linglong nodded and said, "Although I have never been into the ancestral tomb, I heard from my uncles that the bottom of the ancestral tomb is not very big."
I shook my head and said, "Then the ancestral tomb above is probably fake."
In the eyes of tomb robbers, tombs are divided into two types: above-ground tombs and underground tombs. An underground tomb is a majestic tomb with the main body of the tomb deep underground, or an underground palace. The above-ground tomb appeared relatively late. The ground part of the tomb is extremely beautifully built, and may even be directly built to look like a house balcony. However, the underground tomb does not How big it is, at most it’s just big enough to carry the coffin in!
Miao Guangyi was a famous official in the early Song Dynasty. Regardless of the era he lived in or his status, his tomb should not be so small.
Miao Linglong said: "I don't know either, anyway, that's what my uncles said!"
I said solemnly: "Ignore all this for now. If you make wild guesses here, you will never guess the result. Let's go inside and have a look."
"I'll take the lead, Miss Ji will be in the back, and Miao Linglong will be in the middle."
"Look at your feet..."
While I was talking, I changed positions with Miao Linglong. Before I could stand still, I felt the floor tiles under my feet sinking again. At the same time, Miao Linglong and Ji Mingyue let out exclamations one after another, waiting for me. When they turned around to look, the floor tiles under their feet had sunk a few inches.
It's not surprising that I stepped on the trap, but Miao Linglong and Ji Mingyue didn't even move. Why did the floor tiles under their feet sink?
My thoughts were racing and I shouted: "Don't move!"
The two people who originally wanted to move away now stood back to their original positions. I also heard the sound of a machine turning above my head. When I raised my head, a gap only one foot square had opened in the ceiling of the tomb passage, and a piece of leather-like thing floated down from the gap.
I lowered my right hand to my leg, put on the hidden killing glove, turned my palm over and took the piece of leather in my hand.
