Chapter 268: The House of Giants
[Ran^Text^Library] The person who appeared at the entrance of the second cave in the treasure land this time was the woman in white who called herself Lingyin, whom Lu Xiao had met during the day but had always felt a little familiar and vigilant. Read the novel to the net
At this time, Ling Yin looked at the swarthy entrance to the treasure land, and a faint smile bloomed on his still veiled face, "Tianxiang-kun!" Sorry! She muttered to herself and floated into it.
If Lu Xiao is a cicada, and the Xuanyuan clan and the Song family brothers who found a way to enter the treasure land by chance are praying mantises, then Lingyin at this time is a yellow finch, a yellow finch lurking behind them and waiting for an opportunity.
But this yellow finch was not the last person to enter the treasure land today.
About half an hour later, Shen Xue and the two gloomy-looking men who accompanied her this time appeared in front of the swarthy hole.
Looking at the hole in front of her, the corners of Shen Xue's mouth raised a confident smile, and she gently pressed her fingers into her pocket and gently pressed a small insect that had been looking a bit like the most ordinary green caterpillar.
"Xiao Lu is still reliable to you, otherwise you really won't be able to track Lu Xiao!" Shen Xue praised with a smile.
As if sensing the owner's happy mood, the little insect in Shen Xue's pocket also gently rubbed Shen Xue's fingers with his soft head.
This insect is not an ordinary caterpillar, but a very precious insect that can sense the smell of feces excreted by itself.
The reason why Shen Xue was able to find this place a day after Lu Xiao's departure was that Shen Xue unknowingly stuck the white powder made of the feces excreted by this insect on Lu Xiao's body without anyone noticing. It can be said that Shen Xue was able to find this place all thanks to this little worm.
After playing with the auxiliary pets he raised for a few seconds, Shen Xue glanced at the two gloomy men behind him lightly, and walked towards the cave generously.
The two men understood, one followed behind Shen Xue to protect her closely, while the other collapsed the hole with great force after entering it, blocking the hole that appeared unexpectedly.
In the blink of an eye, half an hour after the yellow finch of Lingyin entered, Shen Xue's goshawk appeared again. If Zhang Tingting knew that the treasure of her hidden clan had attracted all kinds of bulls, ghosts, snakes, and gods, maybe she would be very proud!
At this time, Lu Xiao and his entourage of five had already entered the treasure hiding place from the main entrance, and what appeared in front of them was an unconventional straight rectangular passage with knives and axes. Except for the darkness without a trace of light, the silence inside is a little depressing.
Since Zhang Tingting didn't know martial arts among the five of them, their speed in the first few was not very fast. Within a few minutes, everyone was overtaken by the people of the three families who had come in a little later than them.
However, Zhang Tingting was targeting the Xuanyuan family and the Song family, and she had no ill will towards them, at most, she let them run a 100-meter race, so everyone didn't take this matter to heart. Walking together, it wasn't until they had walked for nearly an hour that there was light in front of them.
"It's finally here!" Among the crowd, there was a slightly chubby Hai family member who sighed.
Seeing the light, everyone's last journey was much faster than just now. However, when they stepped out of the light and saw the scene presented to them in front of them, everyone was shocked and froze in place.
It was like a huge square house in front of him, and the four walls of the house were like the hollows of a beehive, with many gates, and Lu Xiao and the others all walked out of one of these doors.
Imagine walking for an hour to a place of light, only to find that they had just come out of a door and into a room. The room was like a giant's room, and yet they seemed so small, like the rat-sized creatures in the room. What that feels like to the crowd.
It's like a movie called "Men in Black" once made by Millican, where the male protagonist opened a door at the end, but he didn't expect it to be a door to another biological world. And compared to the intelligent creatures of that world, the male protagonist is the size of a bug.
That's how it feels to everyone at this time.
If it were just this huge room in front of everyone's eyes, everyone might not be so shocked. But what shocked them was not only this, but also the floor of the huge room.
For Lu Xiao and the others, the pure rock floor of that room was like a huge square, and it was covered with thick white bones that had existed for an unknown number of years.
There are also human and animal bones, and some Lu Xiao and others can't even recognize the white bones of what kind of creatures.
The most surprising thing was that the ground was originally a relatively common hard gray rock, but what appeared in front of them was a rock that had been soaked in blood and had turned red.
How long does it take for the blood of many creatures to soak in to become like this?
When everyone was amazed at the place in front of them that they didn't know who was so generous and built such a magnificent place but killed an unknown number of living beings, Lu Xiao felt that there was a burning sensation in the position of his chest.
And between the burning sensations, there is also a feeling of coolness.
The thing that exuded a sense of coolness, Lu Xiao knew, was the dragon-shaped jade pendant that Zi gave him. And the whole burning feeling came from the wordless page of the same substance as the Tianji Book that his grandmother left to his grandfather.
This sudden change made it easy for Lu Xiao to analyze that the thing left by his grandmother was definitely related to the treasure that had been lost for thousands of years in this place or the hidden clan.
But that page of gold and non-gold is really hot, and the chest is ...... It hurts.
Fortunately, the feeling just now only lasted for a few tens of seconds before disappearing, and Lu Xiao's expression was as calm as ever, and the others didn't find anything wrong with Lu Xiao.
Only Jun who had been following Lu Xiao came again, looking sideways at Lu Xiao, his eyes full of inquiry.
Lu Xiao shook his head lightly at him, indicating that he was fine, and then walked towards the square below with everyone, and Jun came again and returned to a cold state.
The door that Lu Xiao and the others walked out of was in the middle of the whole house, and below it were stone steps like a pyramid. However, the pyramid is an outer stone staircase, and the inside of this room is an inner stone staircase.
When you come to the ground as wide as a square, when you step on it, you will directly step on the ground in a hollow place, giving people the feeling of swampland.
The first person to get down quickly put his foot back, and his face was pale with palpitations. Later, after careful observation by everyone, it was discovered that there was a swamp-like trap down there, but because too many biological bones had lost water for many years and turned into bone meal, and it took on a concave appearance.
Although it was just a small episode, and it wasn't a mechanism for creatures, the bone meal all over the ground made everyone's hearts even more horrified. How many creature's bones need to be weathered to be able to lay such a large area of bone meal farm! And who is going to do this, is he not afraid of being damned? After all, the mass killing of intelligent beings is harmful.
"Miss Zhang Tingting, I don't know if you know anything about this?" The person who asked this sentence was the leader of the Nalan clan, who was closer to the Kunlun clan, Nalan Zixiao, this time.
It's a pity that Zhang Tingting's answer this time disappointed Nalan Zixiao, because Zhang Tingting didn't know either.
Even how to enter here was told to her by Lu Xiao, how could she know about it, Zhang Tingting at this time also subconsciously looked at Lu Xiao.
However, Lu Xiao is the same as her, he only knows from his grandfather that after entering it, he will pass the test of many levels, and if he can't catch it and retreat, there will be no danger to his life at all. But with such a huge square and the proof of the death of creatures all over the ground, Lu Xiao didn't know anything from his grandfather.
Therefore, Lu Xiao can now be sure that it must be for some reason that he has changed the previous path to enter the treasure land, and at this time, this strange road that his grandfather has never mentioned is definitely the first time that he has presented it to everyone.
Because when they went down the steps, there was dust more than 30 centimeters thick on the steps, which showed that no one had been here for a long time.
On this huge stone ground full of bones and red with blood, a total of more than thirty people scattered and slowly searched for some valuable clues.
When Lu Xiao carefully searched the center of the square, he found something that might be called a clue.
There was only a huge beast bone in the center of the square, and Lu Xiao and the others couldn't tell what kind of creature it was. Perhaps it was because of the powerful deterrent power of this huge beast bone creature that many small creatures did not dare to approach him, so that there was no bone meal made of many creature corpses near it.
It was precisely because of this that Lu Xiao was able to find the unique stone brick in the center of the entire square on the stone floor in the center of the square that had not changed much. The color of the stone bricks itself is a dull yellow, which is different from the surrounding black and gray. In addition, the central part of the stone brick is slightly recessed into an unconventional rectangle.
Although there is a recess on this stone brick, many people from the three families who discovered this, whether they stepped on it or pulled it, tried all kinds of means to make this stone brick change, and they gave up the idea that this stone brick is different from the mechanism.
They didn't know how this stone brick was different from the others, but Lu Xiao didn't think so.
When he saw this stone brick and the groove on it for the first time, Lu Xiao knew that this stone brick was definitely related to the page that his grandmother left for his grandfather. No matter in terms of size or thickness, the page in his arms was tailored to the groove in front of him, not to mention that when he first came here, that page of things reacted, and he almost didn't burn himself.
Thinking of this, Lu Xiao directly untied the things left by his grandmother who had collected them closely, and smoothly put them into the groove of the stone brick in the center of the square, and then ......
