Chapter 119 The Underground Palace

On the second day, Zhang Jiayong and his team came to the abandoned mine mining area again, today's weather was a bit strange, it was a sunny day, but after they entered the mining area, it was suddenly covered with dark clouds.

The dark clouds of black oppression make people feel a little depressed, and some routes ahead can only be seen clearly by driving lights.

This time, as long as Zhang Jiayong, Zhang Xian and Zuo Xiong were ready to go down the mine, Xiao Gao suddenly had a high fever after he went back last night, and he was now receiving infusion in the hospital. As for Lu Dandan, she was a little unwell, probably because of her period, so Zhang Jiayong let her stay in the room to rest.

When Zhang Jiayong saw Zuo Xiong take off boxes of equipment from the car, he was stunned, is this guy planning to arm himself into Iron Man?

Zuo Xiong's left and right hands and wrists each wore something similar to a watch, a rubber band on the top of his head, a black vest, a black box backpack behind his back, and a pair of black galoshes.

"I heard what you said yesterday that you were so cautious, if you don't prepare well, I'm afraid that there will be no return!" Looking at the stunned Zhang Jiayong, Zuo Xiong said with a smile.

Zhang Jiayong shrugged his shoulders and said that it has nothing to do with him, you can toss as much as you like. Then he and Zhang Xian also tied ropes, and the three of them prepared to descend into the mine.

During the descent, it was similar to yesterday's situation, and there were no major accidents, but Zhang Jiayong heard the whimpering of some beasts, and it was a bit like the whining of the wind blowing through the cracks in the window.

"Xian, do you feel that today is much wetter than yesterday?"

After reaching the bottom, Zhang Jiayong stepped on the ground and found that there was water seeping out, which was not like this yesterday.

Zhang Xian nodded with a somewhat solemn gaze, it seems that this trip to the mine will not be too smooth.

"Why are you two so serious, don't scare me. Zuo Xiong swallowed his saliva, looking at the two with solemn faces, he suddenly regretted it a little.

His original intention was just to come down to have fun, because he stayed in the institution almost every day, and the shutter was broken, and it was difficult to come out once, and there was no danger for Zhang Jiayong and them to come down before, so he seemed to come down to see it himself.

"Your high-tech is about to arm yourself into a super soldier, are you still afraid of a ball?" Zhang Jiayong rolled his eyes speechlessly.

Then, the three of them got on the minecart and went deeper, and after a while they came to the cliff, and the three of them followed the route they had taken yesterday and came to the opposite side of the cliff.

"Xian, can you still feel the familiar atmosphere of yesterday?" asked Zhang Jiayong.

"I could always feel the familiar aura that had been around me since I entered the mine, but I couldn't pinpoint the exact location of that breath right now. Zhang Xian said.

"Did you meet that 'ghost' here yesterday?" Zuo Xiong interjected quietly.

Zhang Jiayong nodded, and then, he was stunned to find that Zuo Xiong took a candle out and lit it, and that's not all, this product also took a bowl out and poured water into the bowl.

"What are you doing?" asked Zhang Jiayong.

"Haven't you ever seen a ghost blowing out a lamp? If the candle goes out, it means that there is something unclean! And this bowl of water, which means that the well water does not interfere with the river water, means that we have no intention of disturbing the 'ghost'. Zuo Xiong explained seriously.

Zhang Jiayong took a deep breath and wanted to make up for these two goods, what is this? This is a tomb robbery novel, right? Zhang Jiayong found that since he arrived in Mengchuan County, this Zuo Xiong has shown more and more of the second goods.

"Put away the bowl and candles, and we're moving on. Zhang Jiayong said.

"Oh. Zuo Xiong let out a faint sigh, and then poured out the water in the bowl in a depressed mood and put the bowl in his backpack.

However, when he was about to go over and blow out the candle, something strange happened, and the candle went out on its own!

"Candle, candle extinguished!" Zuo Xiong exclaimed.

Zhang Jiayong frowned, and saw the process of extinguishing the candle, which was very strange, not that the flame slowly became smaller and extinguished, nor was it swayed and extinguished by the firelight blown by the wind, but that the flame seemed to disappear out of thin air!

The doorways in those tomb robbery novels are all real? Are there really ghosts here? But this is just an abandoned mine, although it may also be an unfinished imperial tomb.

"Xian, do you feel a familiar aura approaching?" Zhang Jiayong asked.

"No, but I feel like there's something staring at us. Zhang Xian carefully guarded his surroundings, and his expression became even more nervous.

The three of them were back to back, and the pestle stood in place for more than ten minutes, but there was no danger.

"Do you want to keep going?" asked Zhang Xian.

"The pestle is nothing here, just move on. How are you? Do you want to go back first?" Zhang Jiayong looked at Zuo Xiong and asked.

Zuo Xiong shook his head and said that he wanted to advance and retreat with Zhang Jiayong and them. What are you kidding, isn't it going to scare him to death when a person walks back at this time, he doesn't have the guts.

So, the three of them continued to move forward, this mine, the space below is still quite large, which is also related to the fact that it may have been an abandoned imperial tomb before.

On the way forward, Zhang Jiayong found some vegetation and special insects, and even some small animals similar to four-legged snakes, it seems that the ecological environment here is quite complete and unique.

Moreover, as we went deeper and deeper, the humidity of the air also increased, and some visible water appeared on the ground.

At this time, there was a small waterhole in front of me, but considering that this is underground, some water dripped down the roots of the vegetation here, forming a waterhole, which is normal.

"Wait a minute! there's something in the pool!" Zhang Jiayong was about to step across the pool, but Zhang Xian grabbed him.

"What, what?" Zhang Jiayong wondered, what kind of monster could there be in a small pool with a big basin?

Zuo Xiong took out a metal stick from his backpack, and then poured it into the pool, and sure enough, a pair of small black eyes appeared on the surface of the pool, only the size of a soybean.

"I'll go, what is this?" Because this thing is relatively small, although it is a little weird, Zhang Jiayong and the others are not too afraid.

The thing crawled out of the pool, and it had four small feet, and a tail, and its skin was dark brown, and its head was a little yellowish-brown, especially the one around the eyes.

"This thing looks like a baby fish. Zuo Xiong said, and poked the little thing with a metal rod again.

Suddenly, the little thing that looked like a baby fish opened its mouth and spewed out a column of water that shot at Zuo Xiong.

Zhang Jiayong reacted quickly, pushed Zuo Xiong away, and the water column fell on the vegetation not far away, making a gurgling sound, and the vegetation that was drenched by the water quickly turned yellow and withered.

The water jet spewed out by this little thing is poisonous!

Zhang Jiayong picked up a big stone from the side, and then threw it at the little thing, but the little thing was very agile, slipped back into the small pool, and then disappeared!

Zhang Jiayong took the metal rod from Zuo Xiong's hand and threw it into the small pool, but he did not find the little thing again.

After this incident, the pace of the three of them slowed down and became more cautious, even if it was the wall on both sides, they would take a few more looks, and something next to them suddenly jumped out of the wall and caused damage to them.

Zhang Jiayong and the others passed through a long tunnel, and then, as the front gradually became more open, they finally came to a clearing.

Zhang Jiayong looked up and looked around, he felt that this place was very much like a certain hall, with a height of more than ten meters, and on the ground, there were some strange and untidy depictions, I don't know if it was text or what pattern.

"This is ......" Zhang Xian squatted down abruptly, stroking a certain pattern on the ground, as if falling into some kind of memory.

"Xian, what is this?" asked Zhang Jiayong.

Zhang Xian didn't answer immediately, and after a long while, he said: "This is a code for us, it is the group of people who followed me to Devil's Mountain at that time, and we agreed on the code, in case we can't find each other when we get lost." ”

Zhang Jiayong leaned over to look at the mark, which was a shield-like pattern, and in the middle of the shield, there was a cross symbol.

"Do you have a companion who has been here? and left a mark. Zhang Jiayong felt a little confused, could it be that Devil's Mountain really went underground?

"I speculate that there may be some passage in Devil's Mountain to come here, and maybe, Devil's Mountain is really near this abandoned mining area!" Zhang Xian said his opinion, and he had recovered from a faint sadness.

"If you look at it, it seems that there are some words here, explaining something. At this time, Zuo Xiong's voice alarmed Zhang Jiayong and Zhang Xian.

Zhang Jiayong and Zhang Xian ran to Zuoxiong's side, and on the wall, they saw some texts, some ancient texts, but in fact, they were not ancient texts, they were all traditional characters.

"What a ruthless heart, it turned out to be ...... Lives should not be ...... The curse of death......" Zhang Jiayong read out the words that could still be seen clearly, intermittently, not knowing what it meant.

"Hey, this is ......" Suddenly, Zuo Xiong found something similar to a mechanism, and he pressed it.

When Zhang Jiayong found out and wanted to stop it, it was too late, and the ground became trembling, as if an earthquake had occurred.

Several people noticed that they were getting closer and closer to the top, and they were about to touch the stone wall above their heads, and finally stopped when they were still four or five meters away from the stone wall above their heads.

Then, in front of them, two stone doors opened, which was a very large underground palace.

In a trance, everyone saw a scene of bells ringing and eating.
