Xiaorou was speechless.
Xu Qingfeng looked confident. He thought he would take the lead, but he didn't expect that she would be asked to explore the way first.
But she did know.
If you want to truly gain Xu Qingfeng's trust, you can't just rely on a few words, you must take real actions.
Xiaoyue and Xiaokui grabbed Xiaorou's hands and said crisply:
"Sister, we are with you."
Xu Qingfeng curled his lips. Their deep sisterly bond made him look like a villain who bullied the female ghost.
But he still didn't speak.
In this cruel world, if you want to get something, you must give something.
This truth, whether human or ghost, should be understood as soon as possible.
Xiao Rou floated at the front.
Xiaoyue and Xiaokui followed behind.
Xu Qingfeng walked last.
The four people stood in a diamond shape and entered from the center of the long and narrow hole.
Inside the cave is a steep to almost vertical slope.
The three female ghosts landed lightly, and Xu Qingfeng jumped directly from the air to save trouble, with the wind whistling in his ears.
The speed of his free fall.
Instead, it surpassed the falling speed of the female ghost, and fell to the ground first.
Xu Qingfeng complained casually:
"Tsk, I just came out of the ground, and now I have to crawl under again."
"You three, hurry up and follow me, otherwise I can't guarantee your safety."
Xiaokui wrinkled her nose and hummed softly:
"Narrow-minded Taoist priest!"
Xiaorou didn't say anything. She pulled the two sisters and chased Xu Qingfeng's figure, swooping down.
The surrounding environment was almost dark.
A rich golden light surged around Xu Qingfeng, becoming the only source of light in the darkness.
Through the golden light, Xu Qingfeng saw that he was currently between the cracks in the mountain.
There were cracked earth and rocks in front and behind.
He fell vertically.
The squirrel stuck his head out and said excitedly:
"You guys say it."
"Is there any treasure hidden in this ancient tomb?"
The turtle's voice floated out from his arms:
"There must be corpses hidden in the ancient tombs, and they are rotten ones."
There was a crisp knocking sound on the turtle shell, and the little fox's voice floated out from Xu Qingfeng's arms:
"Stupid turtle."
"Squirrel said, those are called burial objects. If the tomb owner has a distinguished status, the burial objects must be worth a lot of money."
These three guys stayed comfortable in Xu Qingfeng's arms.
On the contrary, Xu Qingfeng's chest looked bulging, which looked a bit strange.
I don’t know how long it took, but by the light of golden light.
Xu Qingfeng saw a black square brick appearing below.
Boom.
Xu Qingfeng bent his legs and fell heavily to the ground. The powerful force of the fall set off a strong wind.
It's just that the quality of the floor tiles is very good. Xu Qingfeng fell so hard that it didn't break at all.
Three white ghosts followed closely from above.
Floated to the front of Xu Qingfeng.
Look away.
They were now in an open square, the ground was entirely paved with black tiles, faintly shining with fluorescence.
If you ignore Xu Qingfeng's blazing golden light, the entire square is like a scene of stars slowly unfolding in the universe.
Mysterious, profound, yet very captivating.
At the end of the galaxy, there is a suspension bridge and a city gate that spans the entire underground palace.
Xu Qingfeng raised his hand and put it on his forehead, looking at it and said:
"That should be the main entrance."
Everyone came closer.
Only then could it be seen clearly that the suspension bridge had been lowered, and an underground river was flowing under the bridge, with the sound of gurgling water.
The city gate is open to the outside, revealing a dim and dark doorway, which should be the entrance to the ancient tomb.
Obviously.
The mechanism of the suspension bridge and the gate here has been cracked, perhaps by the dryad grandma herself.
Xu Qingfeng reminded:
"It is said that there are countless hidden weapons in the ancient tomb. From now on, we must be very alert."
Xiaorou was very aware, she said:
"Don't worry, Taoist Master, we are ghosts and spirits, tangible and intangible. Ordinary weapons and mechanisms cannot hurt us."
"We'll find the way for you."
Xu Qingfeng pursed his lips, smiled and said nothing.
The group walked across the suspension bridge and entered the doorway. After walking for a while, a huge stone screen appeared in front of them.
On it are written two "ancient seal scripts" with dragons and phoenixes dancing in the air.
Xu Qingfeng stared at it for a long time.
do not know.
The three female ghosts couldn't figure out what it meant.
Not to mention the little monsters in his arms, they are not as old as Xu Qingfeng, and they are even less likely to know each other.
Xu Qingfeng secretly wrote down the glyphs and prepared to go back and ask Ning Zhong, a scholar.
The group walked around the stone wall screen.
Suddenly his eyes lit up.
A wide and deep corridor appeared in front of Xu Qingfeng.
On both sides of the corridor, there is a pair of transparent luminous pearls every five steps, emitting fluorescent light for auxiliary lighting.
The floor of the corridor is paved with four grids of green bricks.
The stone walls on both sides are carved with various styles of rare and strange animals, with exquisite craftsmanship and lifelike shapes.
Xu Qingfeng curled his lips and said:
"In this situation, there must be a mechanism."
Xiaorou didn't hesitate, didn't even say hello to her sisters, and floated directly into the corridor.
Xiaoyue and Xiaokui shouted anxiously:
"Sister, wait for us."
Xiaorou's voice was serious:
"You guys just stand where you are and don't move. I'll explore the way first. There's no need for everyone to come."
Xiaoyue and Xiaokui were about to defend themselves when Xu Qingfeng said slowly:
"She's right, you two be quiet."
The sound was like a hammer that made a sound, Xiaoyue's heart trembled, and she quickly held the reckless Xiaokui motionless.
Xu Qingfeng looked into the corridor.
Xiaorou has floated to a quarter of the distance.
Nothing happened.
Then she landed on the blue bricks with her bare feet, simulating human weight and walking gait.
Step forward slowly.
Still calm.
They reached the middle of the corridor.
Xiaorou breathed a sigh of relief, and even Xiaoyue and Xiaokui at the entrance of the corridor felt relaxed.
They already thought that this corridor had no mechanism.
However, Xu Qingfeng didn't think so.
He still firmly believes that there should be no mechanism in such a terrain, unless the owner of the tomb is really a bad person who spreads his wealth around.
Xiaorou calmly took another step forward.
Suddenly, there was a rumble of rapidly rotating machinery, and countless dark arrow holes suddenly appeared on the stone walls on both sides of the corridor.
Whoosh!
Countless short arrows shot out from the walls on both sides, attacking Xiaorou's white figure from all directions.
The little fox and the squirrel were lying on their clothes, and they said in unison:
"There really is a mechanism. The little Taoist priest really has you!"
Xiaokui exclaimed:
"elder sister!"
Xiaoyue murmured to herself:
"It's okay, it's just a human arrow. My sister is a ghost, so it can't hurt her!"
Xu Qingfeng chuckled:
"Not always."
Others couldn't sense it, but he could clearly feel the faint spiritual energy surging on the raining arrowheads.
That would definitely hurt the ghostly spirit body.
Xu Qingfeng waved his hands, and two golden ropes instantly appeared, coming first and then like two flexible whips.
There was a crisp sound.
The long whip turned into golden light smashed all the short arrows that attacked Xiaorou from behind.
