Chapter 86
Ye Qianhuan watched carefully all the way, and sorted out the stories he saw in his mind.
The general meaning of the story told on the murals is that the founding emperor of the previous dynasty watched the stars at night one day shortly after the founding of the country, and predicted that his country would encounter a catastrophe in which year and day, and if he could not escape this catastrophe, he was afraid that he would risk losing his country. After the national teacher divined this, he did not dare to make a noise, and secretly informed the emperor of the matter at night.
When the emperor found out, he was very angry, saying that this national teacher was deceiving the people, so he beheaded the national teacher. After that, the emperor had a dream, and he dreamed that the national teacher came to him, and the national teacher was very resentful of the emperor for killing him, and kept cursing and ridiculing the emperor in the dream for not believing his words, and one day, the country would die. He also showed the emperor all the calamities that the country would encounter in the future.
After the emperor woke up, he couldn't forget this matter for a long time, and gradually paid attention to it. However, the national teacher had been killed by himself, and he had no one to discuss, so he secretly gathered his secret guards and began to collect all kinds of treasures for a long time and store them, so that when the country encountered the catastrophe that the national teacher said, he could have enough money to build an army to protect his country, and even if he really lost the country, he could use this treasure to recruit troops and restore the country.
Later, when the emperor died, he told his son about it in secret, and told him to continue to do it, and his son continued to collect treasures in accordance with his father's will. And in his later years, he found the best master of tricks in the country at that time, spent decades to build this twenty-four floor, and placed all the treasures collected in the underground palace under this ancient building, and specially sent people to guard the underground palace.
Later, the emperor also died, and his descendants continued to collect treasures until the end of the third generation, when they finally stopped doing so. Which treasures have been hidden in this underground palace, and no one has ever touched them again, and the builder of this underground palace has also died of old age.
It was also said that the builder drew the drawings of the twenty-fourth floor and handed them over to his disciples of each generation for safekeeping, hoping that if the country was in a catastrophe, he would be able to take out this treasure and use it to recruit troops and save his country.
Ye Qianhuan frowned and thought, if it is really as mentioned in this mural, then when the previous dynasty fell to the country, the emperor at that time should have sent someone to take out this treasure, so is there still a treasure in this underground palace?
Ye Qianhuan didn't dare to put forward the thoughts in his heart, now everyone who came to the underground palace came for this treasure, if they knew that this treasure was gone, the consequences would be unimaginable.
Ye Qianhuan looked left and right, and found that there were also people looking at the murals on the wall, but because this mural didn't have any special meaning at the beginning, there were not many people looking at the back, and they were in a hurry, so many of the murals in the back didn't have time to look. There are not many people like Ye Qianhuan who can browse quickly, but there are still some women who are more attentive and are still observing the mural.
Ye Qianhuan carefully observed their expressions, but fortunately, most of them were still normal now. I don't know if they understand the story on the mural, and I don't know if they guess the same as themselves.
After they had traveled a certain distance, they all sat down to rest. Because there were no traps along the way, although it took a long time in the passage at first, fortunately there were no casualties, but it took some more time, so everyone's mood was not bad. When I was resting, I found my familiar friends and talked about something.
Ye Qianhuan also took advantage of this time to secretly tell Shen Anran his speculation.
Shen Anran thought seriously for a moment and said, "Judging from the completeness of this twenty-fourth floor, it doesn't look like someone has broken in. And when โกโก founded the country, it did not encounter a strong army. So come to think of it, the emperor at that time did not take out these treasures, and it is very likely that the treasures here should still be there. โ
Ye Qianhuan was puzzled: "These treasures were originally prepared by the royal family of the previous dynasty to be used when the country was in danger, so why were they not useful at that time?" โ
Shen Anran said: "This treasure was prepared by the founding emperor of the previous dynasty, and by the time the country died, nearly two hundred years had passed. According to what you said, the royal family of the previous dynasty did not continue to collect in the third generation, so I am afraid that future generations may not necessarily know about these treasures. After all, with so many treasures, it is absolutely impossible for too many people to know about them. In that situation, the people who knew the whereabouts of the treasure may have died, or for various reasons, they could not take out the treasure. Speaking of this, she thought for a moment before continuing: "This can also explain why the treasure map has been handed down to the present, I am afraid that the people who knew the treasure at that time could not take this treasure, so I drew this treasure map, hoping that the descendants of my own country can find this treasure and restore the country." So it's likely that this treasure is still there. โ
Ye Qianhuan nodded, if this treasure is really there, then it is not in vain for them to come here. But another question arises, if so many people here, if they find a treasure, how will they take it out? Everyone wants this treasure, is it possible to kill everyone?
Shen Anran was obviously thinking about this as well, and it seemed that she had a solution to it, but now was obviously not a good time to discuss it. Not to mention that the wall has ears, there is no wall at all, who knows if someone has some stunt to be able to hear the words between them? So naturally, this topic can no longer be discussed. Either way, wait or find the treasure first.
Soon, the people rested, got up, and prepared to continue walking.
Meng Yuanfa organized everyone to rise up and continue. When everyone got up, they found that a few people were still sitting there motionless. The people around felt strange and went over to call them, but when they touched their hands, they found that those people fell to the ground one by one, and they were already dead!
"Ahhh At the beginning, it was a woman who went to call people, and I never thought that the person who had been sitting next to me all this time was dead, and I was so frightened by such a scene that I screamed again and again!
It was only in her screams that everyone suddenly reacted to what had happened, and hurriedly shouted one by one: "What's going on?!" โ
"Someone attacked!"
"There's a trap!?"
Then everyone quickly pulled out the weapons in their hands and waited solemnly. And those who had not moved had fallen to the ground one by one at this moment, their faces pale.
Shen Anran immediately protected Ye Qianhuan behind him and carefully observed the surrounding situation.
Shen Anran practiced martial arts freely, naturally his ears and eyes were clear, and he soon heard a very slight "hissing" sound. She frowned and looked carefully in the direction of the sound, only to see a very small snake slowly crawling out of the corpse lying on the ground.
Obviously, Shen Anran was not the only one who saw this snake. At that moment, everyone immediately understood that it was this little snake that killed so many of their companions!
"This damn snake!" On the spot, someone angrily swung his sword and killed the little snake.
Shen Anran frowned. Could it be just this simple little snake that can bite so many people to death in such a short time?
Soon, a small snake crawled out of another corpse.
Shen Anran frowned. Then he suddenly shouted: "Not good! Come on! After shouting like this, she didn't care whether everyone reflected it or not, she picked up Ye Qianhuan and ran forward.
The crowd hadn't yet reacted to what was going on. There were also people who were killing several other little snakes, and when they saw Shen Anran suddenly running away, they were stunned for a moment.
But they soon never had a chance to run again. Because at the moment they were so stunned, their necks or ankles had been bitten by a small green snake.
The green snake is very, very small, only the length of a palm, and I am afraid that if you are bitten by this snake, you will not even find a scar. But such a snake, just a small bite, can make people lose their lives in an instant. Even before the people who were bitten could react, they had already met Hades.
The others were also very surprised when they saw that the little snake was so venomous, and then they soon did not even have time to be surprised.
Because the "hiss" sound is getting louder and louder. When they turned their heads, they saw that the ground was green, and they didn't know when, thousands of poisonous snakes were already swimming from where they came, and they were extremely fast.
The moment everyone saw the poisonous snake, they only felt that their scalp was numb for a while, and the "hissing" sound in their ears made Hot Listen want to see their entire scalp torn off. Then the person who reacted quickly hurriedly ran in the direction of Shen Anran's escape without hesitation, and his movements were extremely fast.
Only then did everyone react, and hurriedly ran forward regardless of it, among them, the one who reacted a little slower ran at the back, and was bitten by a poisonous snake before he could run for long, and he was killed.
The people running in front didn't dare to be careless at all, and hurriedly took out all their housekeeping skills and used them all to escape.
A group of people ran out of order, and their minds were blank at this moment, and the only thing they could remember was probably to run with Shen Anran.
Most of the people in the rivers and lakes can do light work, so it is also extremely fast to run away at this time, and soon, the figure of the snake has disappeared. But everyone knows that although the snake is invisible, it does not mean that the snake has retreated, and the faint "hissing" sound next to the ear means that the snake is all there and will catch up sooner or later.
Everyone was in a hurry, and their pace couldn't help but speed up a lot. Soon, they saw Shen Anran and Ye Qianhuan.
When everyone saw the two of them at first sight, they must have been happy in their hearts, which at least proved that along the way, although they fled in a panic, they did not run the wrong way. But when they saw Shen Anran and Ye Qianhuan for the second time, their mood became not so good.
Because the reason why Shen Anran didn't run anymore was because there was no road in front of them.
Is this a dead end?
