Chapter 249: I see
The entire crystal wall collapsed in front of everyone, and the shattered hedron covered the ground, revealing the scene behind it.
Yang Qiao, Ma Xiaoling, Hu Tu, Liu Xiaofeng, Liu Xiaoyu, Liu Xiaolang, Liu Xiaoou, and Liu Xiaoyue all looked up together, and their bodies couldn't help but shake.
In the center of the wide palace, there are eight golden pillars, and in the blank space in the center of the golden pillars, a coffin lies quietly.
It just stayed there, but it was full of the dust of time, full of a sense of eternal silence.
Everyone's eyes were drawn to it, and they couldn't breathe for a long time.
Xin Chase's coffin!
"We passed. As soon as Liu Xiaofeng spoke, he found that his voice had become so hoarse, he turned his head to look, and found that everyone's expressions, including Yang Qiao, were not much better than him, and his heart was a little calmer.
As the pillar of Qingtian Liu's generation, he has always been strict with himself, and at this time he is already a little out of shape, but fortunately, everyone is not in much of a situation, and no one laughs at him.
Yang Qiao came back to his senses, nodded slightly, and took the lead to walk forward.
Liu Xiaofeng and the others naturally followed.
When walking on the road, Liu Xiaofeng had already secretly made a vigilant gesture.
Liu Xiaoyu's knife, Liu Xiaoyue's cross iron gun, and Liu Xiaoou's and Liu Xiaolang's iron rods for self-defense have all been taken into their hands.
Ma Xiaoling also held his hand on the hilt of the sword, maintaining a comfortable posture where he could draw his sword at any time.
Among all the people, only the fat man Hu Tu didn't seem to realize the danger, looking around, and followed Ma Xiaoling with a heartless look.
But looking at the fat man's little eyes, if there is really danger, he must run away as soon as possible.
When he walked towards the coffin, Yang Qiao found that the environment here was different from the crystal corridor just now.
It's not so cold, but it also maintains a relatively low temperature, and what makes Yang Qiao pay attention the most is that it is unusually dry here, and it feels like even sweat is going to evaporate.
Finally, everyone walked to the coffin.
Yang Qiao took a look, this is a huge coffin, it should be an outer coffin, and there is an inner coffin inside.
He glanced at Liu Xiaofeng, and before he could speak, Liu Xiaofeng had already understood the meaning and waved his hand, Liu Xiaolang and Liu Xiaoou immediately walked up, inserted the flat end of the iron rod in their hands into the gap in the coffin lid, and each of them occupied one end, and pressed the iron rod down with their bodies together.
Crunch~
There was a tooth-aching sound of coffin rubbing. The lid of the coffin shook and rose, and finally it was lifted with a "bang".
The lid of the coffin smashed to the ground, stirring up a cloud of dust.
Everyone's eyes immediately stared at the inside of the coffin, and saw that the large coffin was filled with some lime, triad soil, blackened wood chips and charcoal, and in the center of these fillings, there was a small coffin with red paint.
Yang Qiao's Adam's apple squirmed slightly, and he felt his nervousness.
The reaction of everyone else was similar.
I'm about to meet this legendary woman, a female corpse from 2,000 years ago.
In the past, I have seen stories about her in countless archaeological news, and now I finally want to see the true face of Lushan, I don't know if it is really that magical.
Also, in this inner coffin, can you find the answers or clues that everyone wants?
About the Dragon Slaying Sword, about the Dragon Vein, about the secret of the disappearance of the previous head of the Qingtian Liu family......
The unknowns of all this are about to be revealed.
Liu Xiaoou and Liu Xiaolang looked at Liu Xiaofeng's eyes, the two took a deep breath, carefully inserted the iron rod into the gap in the coffin lid of the inner coffin, and pressed down hard.
The inner coffin feels stronger and tighter than the outer layer.
Liu Xiaoou and Liu Xiaolang oozed sweat on their foreheads, and they worked hard several times in a row, and finally succeeded in lifting the lid of this layer of coffin in a "squeak" sound.
……
The sun was setting in the west, but there was a scorching wave of air on the ground.
A dark shadow pressed over, piling up strange human shapes on the ground.
"Is this it?"
"Is there a dragon vein here?"
Shinzuki Abe's feminine voice sounded.
"My lord, it's been a while since I've seen them go in......"
"It's someone from the Qingtian Liu family? Oh...... And that ancient feng shui Yang Qiao is also in it?" Abe Jinyue's voice became more and more feminine: "These people are the top feng shui masters in China, and they can't afford to be early, so let's go in and have a look......"
"Hello!"
……
The red liquid filled the coffin, and in this red, a woman in a gorgeous gown lay quietly.
Her skin was fair, her hair was like clouds, her hands were folded on her lower abdomen, as if she was sleeping, and there was a faint smile on the corner of her mouth.
This is Xin Chai.
A female corpse that has been dead for more than 2,000 years, but when you first see her, no one will believe that she is dead. Her face and temperament are like a sleeping princess.
Yang Qiao stared at Xin Chai's face, as if there were countless storms and lightning in his mind, and he felt a hint of familiarity.
This feeling is ......
"This is Xin Chai?"
Liu Xiaoyu's startled voice broke the calm.
Liu Xiaofeng glanced at him, and then returned his gaze to the woman in the coffin, his eyes flashed with brilliance, observing Xin Chai's face, and his fingers were constantly pressing his knuckles, making all kinds of deductions.
If the source of everything is Xin Chai, then where is the missing previous head of the family?
She's lying here quietly now, so...... Where is the Dragon Slayer?
Liu Xiaofeng's forehead was covered with fine beads of sweat, and he used all his strength to deduce and find possible clues with all the feng shui secret techniques he had mastered.
Yang Qiao was also watching.
But Yang Qiao and Liu Xiaofeng looked at the difference, Yang Qiao was first looking at those red liquids, this unknown mysterious liquid, probably the secret of keeping Xin Chai's body incorruptible for thousands of years.
Yang Qiao's heavenly eyes opened, from the truth of all things, all the way to the subtleties, some of the ingredients of this red liquid, he could see some of them, and some of them, but he still didn't understand them.
There's ...... in this Cinnabar, mercury, many Chinese herbs that cannot be named, and ...... Erysipelas.
Yang Qiao's memory was a little trance-like, he vaguely remembered that in the tomb of Zeng Hou Yi, when Master Lu Weijiu took him back in time, he had personally experienced the scene of Zeng Hou Yi's pursuit of immortality, at that time, in addition to refining the dragon seal and sword for Zeng Hou Yi, there were also some pills.
In the Dan room of Zeng Houyi's tomb, I also saw the illusion left by the alchemy of the ancients thousands of years ago......
What made Yang Qiao think carefully was that the ingredients of that elixir were very similar to these unknown red liquids in Xin Chai's coffin in front of him. And through Yang Qiao's heavenly eye, he saw a dark red thread wrapped around Xin's corpse, which was ......
The line of cause and effect!
This cause and effect is extremely important, extending to an inexplicable distance, faintly pointing to the tomb of Marquis Yi, and even more to ...... Dragon Vein!
What is the causal relationship between the two?
Yang Qiao felt his throat dry for a while.
In Liu Xiaoyu's opinion, this tomb and underground palace only have Xin Chai's coffin and corpse, and the rest is nothing worth noting, but in Yang Qiao's opinion, just these causes and effects entangled in Xin Chai's body, this huge amount of information has almost exploded his head.
Minutes and seconds passed.
Suddenly, a small voice in his ears woke Yang Qiao.
He turned his head to see that it was a fat man.
The fat man Hu Tu took advantage of the fact that no one was paying attention, and actually secretly ran to the side and checked Xin Chai's funeral goods.
On the red lacquer table in the corner of the burial chamber are many clay pots, lacquer boxes, lacquer plates and other utensils.
At this time, Hu Tu was like a fat panda, sitting on the ground without a figure, piling up those bottles and cans in front of him, and opened them curiously one by one.
The sound Yang Qiao heard just now was made by the fat man opening these jars.
"Hey, there are melon seeds in here...... the fat man opened a clay pot, and looked up with one eye, and his mouth was amazed.
"What is this? I'll see...... Ha, lotus seeds!" The fat man shook a jar, and there was a faint sound of water in it, and he reached in and fished out a handful, and actually fished out a few tender lotus seeds from it.
However, as soon as these lotus seeds were removed from the water, they immediately decayed and shriveled.
The fat man was startled and quickly threw it back in his hand.
When Liu Xiaoyu saw it, his brows immediately straightened, his eyes widened, and he shouted loudly: "Dead fatty, what are you doing? Don't touch these things with your dirty hands!"
Hu Tu was yelled at by him, his head shrank in fright, and he stuck out his tongue: "If you don't let you touch it, you won't touch it, really, if you are hungry and find something to eat, you will be scolded......"
When Yang Qiao saw this scene, he was really drunk.
Liu Xiaofeng frowned, glanced at Liu Xiaoyu, and said, "Xiaoyu, don't be so loud, what kind of system." ”
"Yes. Liu Xiaoyu was not afraid of the ground, but he was afraid of his eldest brother, so he immediately coaxed down.
Ma Xiaoling walked to Yang Qiao's side at this time and looked at him: "What did you find?"
"It's a little bit. Yang Qiao kneaded his eyebrows with two fingers, just now, in a short moment, he used the Heavenly Eye to observe the vitality consumed by Xin Chai, it was simply more tiring than arranging a dragon sealing array, and now he felt a wave of tiredness coming.
Liu Xiaofeng set his eyes on Yang Qiao, and he had to admit that he really had a big gap compared to Yang Qiao in terms of feng shui. It's ridiculous that he still wants to see Yang Qiao's teacher Lu Weijiu for a few months, but now he can't even compare to his students.
Liu Xiaofeng felt a burst of frustration in his heart, he was also the pride of the sky, under his calm and calm face, he hid an extremely proud heart, but now was not the time to think about this, he took a deep breath, stabilized his emotions and said: "Yang Qiao, please tell me if you find anything, and let's discuss what to do next." ”
Yang Qiao was still kneading his eyebrows, his eyes kept staring at Xin Chai, who was soaked in the red liquid, and said in a tone full of doubts: "There are a few things that are strange about me. ”
"First of all, Xin Chai's corpse doesn't show any traces of corpse transformation, and secondly, the liquid she soaked in has ingredients of cinnabar and lead tribute, which are all evil spirits, and I can't think of any reason to make her corpse, so ......"
"So what?" Liu Xiaoyu couldn't help but interject.
Liu Xiaofeng's face was slightly ugly: "Do you think I'm lying?"
Liu Xiaoyu, Liu Xiaoyue and other people from the Liu family couldn't help but look at him, and secretly said in their hearts: Xiaofeng, what you said is so reasonable, but what you said to Yang Qiao just now, about the dragon sword or something, isn't it just lying?
The tomb fell silent, and everyone's eyes looked back and forth in front of Liu Xiaofeng, who had an angry face, and Yang Qiao, who was contemplative, and there was a smell of gunpowder in the air.
Since entering Xin's tomb, Liu Xiaofeng has always warned himself to focus on the overall situation, and he has been suppressing his temper. Now, Yang Qiao's questioning finally made him a little angry.
Just when everyone thought that Yang Qiao would have a verbal conflict with him, they saw Yang Qiao shake his head: "No, I don't think you are lying." ”
Belch?
Everyone was stunned for a moment, and a strange feeling arose in their hearts.
Since you said that it was impossible for Xin Chai to mutinate, but now you say that what Liu Xiaofeng said is not a lie, isn't this a contradiction? Liu Xiaofeng took the lead and clearly said that because of Xin Chai corpse, the previous head of the Liu family disappeared.
Just as everyone was staring at Yang Qiao with strange expressions, he put down his fingers pinching his eyebrows and looked up at everyone, "Do you remember the red smoke you encountered when you just entered the tomb?"
"Smoke?" Liu Xiaoyu subconsciously thought for a moment, and a confused look appeared on his face.
Liu Xiaofeng's heart moved slightly, as if he had faintly caught something, and before he could speak, the light flashed in the eyes of the fat man Hu Tuxiao on the side: "Yang Qiao, did you say that the feng shui masters and archaeologists who entered the tomb of Xin Chai smelled the hallucinogenic fog, so they ......?"
The fat man really deserves to be a genius in logic, and he is the one who wakes up the dream.
Liu Xiaoyu's eyes widened, and Liu Xiaofeng had already blurted out: "Yes, they must have hallucinated." ”
Liu Xiaoyue, Liu Xiaoou, Liu Xiaolang and others on the side looked at each other, but they had to admit that this inference was very reasonable.
If the head of the Liu family did see Xin Chai "corpse transformation" back then, if the two surviving people did not lie, then the only possibility is that they both fell into the same hallucination at that time, and the red fog of unknown composition that everyone encountered before happened to have a hallucinogenic effect.
Ma Xiaoling glanced at the fat man, then at Yang Qiao, and nodded slightly.
The three of them don't talk about the strength of Feng Shui compared to Qingtian Liu, just talk about this logical reasoning ability, after all, they all came out of the juvenile class, and their brains are not ordinarily fast.
Among them, Yang Qiao's performance is the most amazing.
Yang Qiao continued to talk to himself at this time: "Maybe they were hit by this kind of smoke when they entered the tomb, or maybe it was ......"
His gaze was fixed on the red liquid surrounding Xin Chai in the coffin: "Or maybe this red liquid contains that hallucinogenic ingredient." ”
Yang Qiao's words aroused Liu Xiaofeng's association, and he couldn't help but speak: "Yes, it is said that everyone at that time first smelled a strange fragrance, it may be ...... Probably this is the kind of thing. ”
Speaking of this, his brows furrowed and he muttered, "No, if it's just an illusion, where did all those people go?"
This is indeed a loophole in Yang Qiao's inference.
If it is just an illusion caused by smoke, it is impossible for the person to disappear out of thin air, and after the illusion fails, where does the person go?
The more I think about this matter, the more I feel that the hairs on my back stand on end, full of weirdness that science can't explain.
Not only Liu Xiaofeng frowned and thought there, but Liu Xiaoyue and the others, including Ma Xiaoling, were also pondering.
At this time, the fat man interjected again, and said weakly: "Perhaps, there is some other feng shui array here, trapping people in, or maybe some mechanism has been activated." ”
Syllable!
Yang Qiao snapped his fingers lightly: "Hu Tu, I see that you are not confused at all, you are right!"
"What? Is he telling the truth?"
Liu Xiaofeng looked up in disbelief.
If it is forgivable to lose to Yang Qiao, after all, he is indeed inferior to him in feng shui, but even a fat man can think of things that can be discovered, but he didn't expect it, which makes him feel a little unacceptable.
Yang Qiao seemed to see Liu Xiaofeng's thoughts, but in fact, Liu Xiaofeng and Liu Xiaoyu wrote out all their inner thoughts on their faces at the moment.
After all, they are the children of the Qingtian Liu family, although their ability is not small, but they are too proud, which makes them blind and fall into misunderstandings.
Yang Qiao continued: "I checked just now, and under this coffin of Xin Chai, there is indeed a hidden tomb, which can be opened if the mechanism is triggered. ”
Speaking of this, Yang Qiao couldn't help but recall what happened in Cao Cao's tomb.
At that time, it was also because he touched the mechanism under the coffin, and the flap was opened, causing himself and the coffin to fall into the tomb below, and the design of this mechanism in the Xin Chase Tomb was exactly the same as Cao Cao's tomb.
He shook his head, shaking off some of the odd thoughts, "Get out of the way, I'll open this mechanism now, and we'll see what's down there." ”
The eye of heaven allows Yang Qiao to see many places that others can't see, everything can really observe the changes of the feng shui array, the direction of the vitality of heaven and earth, and the subtle realm, he can find many subtle clues, so that Yang Qiao is unmatched in the field of mechanism.
But if there is a trace of residual breath, a trace of it, he can see it.
At the moment, the same is true.
Liu Xiaofeng and Ma Xiaoling retreated ten steps away according to Yang Qiao's request, only to see Yang Qiao walking around Xin Chai's coffin a few times, reaching out and gently tapping on the side of the coffin.
His movements were slow, and each stroke caused the red liquid inside the coffin to tremble slightly, causing ripples.
Ma Xiaoling, who was staring at him from a distance, saw this scene, and their hearts unconsciously brought it up, and they didn't know whether they were worried that the red liquid would change, or whether they were worried that Yang Qiao would not be able to find the entrance of the mechanism.
A few minutes later, Yang Qiao stood in the direction of Xin Chai's head, there were slight scratches at the bottom of the coffin in this place, and I am afraid that I would have to take a high-powered magnifying glass to see a hint of clues, but now it was accurately captured by Yang Qiao.
He stretched out his foot and gave it a light kick in the same place, the feeling of the toe touching was a little loose. He stomped on it hard.
Titicaca......
The sound of the machine sounded.
At the same time, a slight sound similar to the rotation of gear bearings was heard in his ears, and the next moment, Xin Chai's coffin suddenly shifted, revealing a pit of the same size as the coffin in the ground.
The door to the catacombs is open!
A chill poured out of the open hole, mixed with a strange smell of decay.
Liu Xiaofeng glanced at Yang Qiao, and then at Liu Xiaoyu and the others standing behind him, feeling that his heart was beating faster, and his palms were sweating.
He had a hunch that the real answer lay beneath the open hole.
"We ...... Let's go down. There has never been a moment when Liu Xiaofeng was so nervous and full of longing, that he didn't even hear his voice become hoarse.
He wasn't the only one who was nervous.
Yang Qiao also heard his strong heartbeat.
His senses were far sharper than Liu Xiaofeng's, not only sensing the abnormal chill surging up from below, but also smelling an ominous smell.
I'm afraid it's not a good thing down there, but ...... There may also be something you're looking for underneath.
Yang Qiao gritted his teeth, raised his head and met Liu Xiaofeng's gaze, and saw a hint of determination in each other's eyes.
Liu Xiaofeng said to the Liu people behind him: "There may be danger down here, and those who don't want to go down can stay here at the entrance." ”
Yang Qiao also said to Ma Xiaoling and Hu Tu: "The following situation is uncertain, fat man, if you are afraid of danger, stay here and wait for me." ”
"No, no. Hu Tu shook his head like a rattle.
"It's actually safe to follow you and watch the danger, so I don't want to stay here alone. ”
"Alright then, you'll follow me in a moment. Yang Qiao reached out and patted the fat man's shoulder.
As for Ma Xiaoling, there is no need to ask, she must go down with her, Yang Qiao has enough tacit understanding with her.
Yang Qiao raised his head and looked at Liu Xiaofeng's side, he had just explained it, and it was the same, everyone was willing to go down together.
At that moment, Yang Qiao walked in the front, unscrewed a small tactical flashlight in his hand, illuminated the stone steps exposed at the entrance of the cave, and walked down the stairs one by one.
The others followed him without saying a word.
The temperature around us was getting colder and colder, and gradually, a light came into everyone's eyes, and it was ice.
Transparent ice crystals spread throughout the space, and this place is like a world of extreme ice.
Yang Qiao couldn't help but gasp, feeling a biting chill in his breath. If the cold encountered before was only late autumn, the cold in this underground tomb is now a harsh winter!
"Here...... Why is it so cold!" Liu Xiaoyue's body trembled slightly, and she couldn't help but ask.
Although she was wearing a long-sleeved autumn dress, it was too cold underground, it was like a big ice cellar in ancient times, and she felt numb in her hands and feet just after coming in for a while. I didn't expect this until I came down.
Liu Xiaofeng also felt very cold, and he even noticed that the breath he exhaled was in the form of a white mist.
What will happen down here, when it's so cold?
After stepping on the ice, I walked about 30 meters and finally saw the situation below. This is an ice room in the shape of a hollow shape, and the whole space is supported by seven huge icicles, which looks like a calm atmosphere.
However, what attracted Yang Qiao and Liu Xiaofeng's attention the most was not those strange icicles, but ...... Person.
Yes, in this mysterious underground ice palace, there are dozens of people in strange postures, standing or lying, forever frozen here.
Yang Qiao's heart trembled, and he heard Lu Weijiu, the teacher beside him, let out a long sigh.
"The deceased is like a ......"
What about the dead?
A chill ran down Yang Qiao's back, what did the teacher mean when he said this, could it be that these people have already ......
Yes, these people have been dead for many years, just because of the cold of this ice palace, their bodies were permanently sealed and frozen in the moment before they died.
Yang Qiao's steps were solemn, as if he was dragging a heavy lead block. He walked forward slowly step by step, and saw that the clothes on these people had the characteristics of people in the seventies and eighties, some still held document bags in their arms, some held excavation tools in their hands, and some were obviously dressed as feng shui masters.
These people, these people are probably missing......
"Grandpa!"
Liu Xiaofeng suddenly heard a cry of grief in his ears.
Yang Qiao, Ma Xiaoling, and Hu Tu turned their heads to look, only to see Liu Xiaofeng rushing towards an "ice sculpture".
It was a middle-aged man frozen in ice.
Under the frost cover, the man could be seen to have a resolute face, wearing a tunic and holding a compass in his left hand, because the fingers were stiff and solidified, the compass seemed to be welded together with the fingers.
This is the missing head of the Qingtian Liu family in the previous generation?!
With Liu Xiaofeng's movements, Liu Xiaoyu and Liu Xiaoyue, Liu Xiaolang and Liu Xiaoou and others behind him also rushed up, nervously and solemnly surrounding Liu Xiaofeng.
Liu Xiaoyu asked hesitantly: "Brother, ...... you How can you be sure he's grandpa?"
"When I was a child, I saw a portrait of my grandfather, and it was him!
Tears poured out of Liu Xiaofeng's eyes, he raised his hand to wipe them, but he couldn't wipe them clean, and his throat choked for a while.
"Indeed...... It's grandpa. Liu Xiaoou said in a sad voice: "I also saw the portrait of my grandfather when I was a child. ”
Although their grandfather is missing, there is always hope that something will happen before they see the body. At this moment, the truth was brutally displayed in front of him, shattering the remaining glimmer of hope in Liu Xiaofeng's heart.
"Brother...... Brother, look, grandpa's compass is ...... It seems that there are words. ”
At this time, Liu Xiaoyue stammered a word.
Although she was also very sad, firstly, she was far away from her grandfather's age and did not have such a deep feeling, and secondly, she observed more carefully, and when she found the words on the compass, she couldn't help but shout out immediately.
Liu Xiaoyue's words surprised Yang Qiao, and he glanced back at Ma Xiaoling and Hu Tu beside him, and the three of them walked over without saying a word.
I didn't want to disturb Liu Xiaofeng and them, but at this time, I had to do it.
Yang Qiao took the lead and walked in front of the frozen head of the Liu family, bowed slightly, which was not only a tribute to an old man in the feng shui world who sacrificed his life for the country, but also because he had a distant relationship with the Qingtian Liu family, and he should also pay tribute to the elders.
After doing this, he straightened up and looked at the compass in the iceman's left hand.
Although it is covered in frost, there are some places where the frost is thin, and the crooked handwriting faintly shines.
Feng Shui masters have to write talismans, and most of them are good at calligraphy, usually this character is not so scattered, obviously this is a feng shui master on his deathbed with his last strength, with his fingernails on the compass hard scratch.
What kind of message does he want to leave for posterity?
Yang Qiao's gaze was fixed on those words, and he reached out to brush away some of the frost and snow.
At this time, Liu Xiaofeng also stopped his grief and stood up, stared at the words on the compass with Yang Qiao, carefully identified them, and couldn't help but read them out in his mouth-
"I see!"
I see?
What does that mean?
Yang Qiao, Liu Xiaofeng, and everyone couldn't help but look at each other at this moment, all of them at a loss.
Originally, I thought that the words left on the compass by the previous generation of the Liu family head must be the key clue to solve all the mysteries, at least why they came to this underground ice chamber and solve the frozen mystery.
But now not only did it fail to explain these questions, but it made Yang Qiao and everyone more and more confused.
I see......
What do the previous generations of Liu family heads want to tell us when they left these four words?
