"Jelly Beans are down there!" Xiao Qian'er pushed open the table, and immediately revealed the entrance to a secret room underneath.

I was just about to get up when I heard Nishigong Kaoru say, "Mr. Chen Ye, do you want to give up Yanagi like this?"

Nishinomiya Kaoru's words were obviously a little angry.

I hurriedly explained: "I'm sorry, in order to calculate the fourth son, I had to make this decision. The cow hair needles on Liu Shengjun's body were not as terrible as they looked, and they were just slightly coated with a little drunken potion. ”

I gave Xiao Qian'er a look between words, and the latter quickly helped Liu Shengjun up and poured the antidote, and after a while, Liu Shengjun spit out a mouthful of black water, and the person woke up.

Liu Shengjun was a little embarrassed to look at the peach demon, lowered his head and said, "Mr. Chen Ye, your plan is too ...... It's ......"

Yanagi didn't know how to say it for a while, but I stretched out my hand to Yanagi and said, "You let me meet the real Oriental samurai." ”

Yanagi grabbed my hand and stood up: "Thank you for the compliment." ”

I didn't have time to be polite with Yanagi Jun, but Xigong Kaoru looked a little lost: "Chen Ye, I thought you were a different person from the rivers and lakes, but I didn't expect that you would do anything for the sake of the end." ”

I looked at Xigong Kaoru and said, "I don't want to argue anything with you! I just want to tell you that I, Chen Ye, am not a good person." ”

I thought Kaoru Nishinomiya would be angry, but she looked at me and smiled.

I don't understand the girl's brain circuits, but I don't bother to guess what's going on in her mind? In my opinion, the girl's mind is too complicated for me to guess, let alone guess. It is enough to be honest with your friends, regardless of whether they are male or female.

Xiao Qian'er walked in front with a flashlight and said, "Chen Ye, you guessed right! Yusuke Nishinomiya and his lieutenant were able to survive back then, because they were sent into this secret room by mistake. ”

"The seven-star chain lock on the wall of the secret room is not just our design, but the original thing in the secret room. However, the three mechanisms behind the secret room are all empty. Someone must have tried to open the secret room, but the mechanism was triggered. ”

Ye Xuan frowned and said, "How did you open the secret room?"

Xiao Qian'er said: "When we came over, the seven-star chain lock had already been unlocked. It must have been many years ago to unlock the chain lock, and although the door of the secret room was not locked, it had not been touched for many years. ”

The seven-star chain lock has one of the biggest drawbacks, as long as someone opens the secret room and allows people to see the mechanism behind the seven-star chain lock, they can easily guess the way to unlock the lock, and even reset the lock.

Xiao Qian'er said: "After we came in, the table had already been pushed open, and the second floor of the secret room was directly exposed in front of our eyes. Jelly Bean kept me in the back room, and she went down to the second floor herself. ”

I couldn't help but frown slightly when I heard this.

Xiao Jelly Bean is not a person who does not know the importance of the matter, according to her usual habits, she will not leave easily if she does not watch the defeat of my opponent. Unless she felt that there was a greater danger lurking in the second floor of the chamber.

The second level of the chamber was deeper than I had imagined, and we descended fifty steps in a row before we reached a platform. But this platform is not the end of the secret passage. It's just a buffer zone. The only difference from the secret passage above is that there is a fire tunnel for lighting.

The fire that sticks to the wall has already been lit, and it is not as bright as day when we are staying, but it is brightly lit.

But when I came down from above, why didn't I see the fire?

I tried to take a few more steps back, and when I had reached the seven steps, the fire on the platform disappeared before my eyes. From where I was, all I could see was a dark road.

"What's going on?" I tried back and forth a few times and got the same result.

The peach demon said, "Don't try! We're afraid we're in trouble." This is the Yin and Yang Underground Palace. ”

Peach Demon explained: "The Yin Yang Underground Palace is a lost tomb-building masterpiece. Legend has it that this kind of building was half built in the yang world and half in the underworld. There is a platform in the middle of the building as a partition. Standing on both sides of the platform, you can't see the people on the other side. It represents the meaning of yin and yang. ”

"According to legend, the purpose of building the Yin and Yang Underground Palace is to allow the living and the dead to meet, but never meet. In other words, the living and the dead can talk across the platform, but they will never be able to see each other. ”

I wondered, "You mean, the Yin-Yang Dungeon is a building specially designed to allow the living to communicate with the undead......? Isn't that redundant?"

There are many ways for people in the art path to communicate yin and yang, and the most common of them is the medium. Since, just calling a psychic warlock can communicate the two worlds of yin and yang, why spend a lot of money to build a yin and yang underground palace?

"No!" Peach Demon shook his head and said, "The spirit medium can indeed communicate yin and yang, allowing the undead to talk to the living. But only for conversations, but only for conversations. They can't bring the things of the underworld to the yang world. But the Yin and Yang Underground Palace can do this. Some people say that the Yin Yang Dungeon is actually a trading platform for the undead and the living. ”

I couldn't help but gasp when I heard this. The undead and the living have their own worlds, and the living burn paper for sacrifice because they think that the burned things will be turned into entities for the use of the dead. However, this does not mean that everything in the underworld is a phantom that cannot be touched by the living. There are also immortals in mythology who can bring the treasures of the underworld to the yang world.

The undead in the underworld dare to trade the treasures of the underworld with the living?

The peach demon probably saw my thoughts, and explained: "Don't look at the Yin Yang Dungeon as so mysterious. In fact, there are not many souls who dare to steal the magic weapon of the underworld. The main thing they trade is some burial goods buried deep in the ground. ”

This way the explanation is easy to understand.

There are countless tombs in the world, many of which are visited by tomb robbers, but many more are still sleeping quietly underground, waiting for someone to wake him up. Of course, this also includes the Vaults left behind by certain Warlocks.

What the living can't find, the dead can easily get. Naturally, you can take it out and trade with others.

Could this temple have been the place where warlocks traded?

Wrong!

In the Northeast, except for the imperial tombs of the Qing Dynasty, there are no decent tombs. What do the dead people in the underground rely on to trade with people? It can't be mining, right?

I was still confused, so I followed Xiao Qian'er to the end of the stairs, but what I didn't expect was that there was an underground dark river under the stairs, and the stairs of the dungeon happened to be built into the water.

There are two square-filled spaces around the staircase. In those two open spaces, there should have been something that had been placed, but now those things have disappeared, leaving only one by one squares, indicating that something once took root here.

"Where's the little jelly bean?" I panicked.

There is such a large area under the stairs that you don't need to take a second look if you want to see things nearby. The little jelly bean was gone.

The peach demon jumped down the stairs, and after a brief search, he beckoned, "Here are the marks left by jelly beans." ”

I crouched on the ground and took a look, and there was an arrow drawn by Jelly Bean. There is also a code word next to the arrow. Jelly Bean is telling us not to worry, she's chasing something, let's follow the arrow she left behind. The place she walked represented safety.

I was relieved, but my heart immediately hung again.

Supposedly, even if Little Jelly Bean finds something, she should wait until we come down before we act together, why did she run away by herself?

Did she chase something, or did she find danger here and help us find our way ahead of time?

Either way, it's enough to make people feel scared.

Ye Xuan looked into the water without heart or lungs: "Where did this water come from?"

I made a rough estimate and said: "The river flows in the direction of Yuwu Village, and if I guess correctly, this dark river should be able to run through the county seat." If we want to continue to follow the little jelly bean's mark, we have to wade through the water and swim against the current. The water is not urgent, let's go ahead and try it first. ”

Ye Xuan was the first to jump into the knee-deep water, and tried to take a few steps forward: "The tunnel in front is quite deep! No, it looks like there is a hole in the wall! Someone has carved a lamp here. ”

The lamp eye that Ye Xuan said is the place where the torch lamp plate is used, the water depth here is not enough to sail, and there have been people walking along the river?

Ye Xuan said as he walked: "Little demon, didn't you say that this is a place where the dead trade with the living?

When the peach demon couldn't help but glance at Ye Xuan, there was a commotion under Ye Xuan's feet. I immediately rushed up with my knife, Ye Xuan made a gesture to me, meaning that I should press him down, and I reached out and touched the bottom of the water. Soon a pair of shackles with iron balls bolted to them were brought out from below.

Leg shackles are torture instruments used to bind the feet of prisoners, and are divided into light shackles and heavy shackles. Light shackles are just two ends of the chain, one is that people can't run fast, and the other is that they can make a sound when walking. It plays the role of a warning. Heavy shackles are iron rings fastened behind the back of the chains, and the prisoners with heavy shackles can only move forward little by little. Usually only felons are used for this kind of thing.

But the iron ball that was brought up by Ye Xuanshui was too big, the weight of one shackle was about fifty catties, and the two shackles had to be more than 100 catties, can a person still walk with more than a hundred catties of things on his feet?

The thought in my head suddenly turned, and I reached out and touched it in the water, and it didn't take long for me to find three or four of these shackles.

The lights on the wall and the shackles in the water all indicate that many years ago, people were handcuffed and worked in the water.

I glanced at the wall with my flashlight, only to see a few scratches from the hands of the people, and in some places there were broken fingers in the cracks in the rocks.
