In a small forest along the shore of the reservoir, Zhou Chen took off his coat, put it in his bracelet, and jumped into the water.

Compared to the sea, the bottom of the reservoir is much more monotonous, except for some aquatic plants, most of which are black silt.

Zhou Chen walked quickly against the bottom of the lake, and the shadow detected with perspective Some scattered bones occurred in the depths of the silt, including various animals and humans, it seems that the rumors are true, from ancient times to the present, this black-hearted lake has indeed swallowed a lot of life.

With Zhou Chen's swimming speed, it doesn't take too long to inspect the entire bottom of the lake, but in fact, it doesn't need to be so laborious, and it may be more convenient to find it by feeling.

Half an hour later, Zhou Chen found an unusual cave somewhere at the bottom of the lake, it was sandwiched between two boulders, and the entrance was buried by silt, which could not be found with human naked eyesight, that is, the perspective ability of the shadow could only be found.

You don't need to think about it, you must go in and have a look, Zhou Chen stirred the water flow with water control techniques, formed a strong suction, and sucked the silt away little by little, which must be much faster than digging by hand, and it didn't take long for the entrance of the cave with a diameter of about one hundred and twenty centimeters to be revealed.

There is still water inside, so you can easily swim in.

The cave is long, but not twisty, and there are very obvious signs of human excavation, but it is so old that it doesn't look like it was last a hundred years.

The shadow judged that this cave should have been dug by some people in ancient times according to the underground waterway, and it went straight to the bottom of the lake from somewhere above ground, but the underground waterway has long been cut off, and no underground water flows into the lake. That's why the outlet will be buried by silt.

In ancient times, there were many wars, and many nobles or wealthy families. They will build tunnels in their own houses in case of war. It's just that why this tunnel goes straight to the bottom of the lake is quite strange, and there was no diving equipment in those days, so ordinary people couldn't swim out at all, so they drowned in the tunnel.

Because it is really long, Zhou Chen swam more than 300 meters, and the tunnel trend gradually rose until it ...... Boom, came out of the water.

The front is still a dark and narrow tunnel. However, its height has exceeded the water surface of the Black Heart Lake, so the location of the flooded tunnel ends here.

Zhou Chen didn't get a drop of water on his body, so just in case, he took out his shield and Miao knife, and continued to move forward with the trend of the tunnel.

There is no need for lighting, and she is connected to the ghost spirit, and through her special vision, she can see everything within thirty meters.

After walking for a while, Zhou Chen and Phantom Shadow judged in unison that the tunnel had gone deep into a dirt mountain not far from the shore of the lake. That is, there is something else in the belly of the mountain.

Sure enough, the crypt in front of it became much more open, and it was an artificially excavated secret chamber in the belly of the mountain.

Zhou Chen saw three near-complete human skeletons, and the clothes on their bodies had long since rotted. The time of death may have been hundreds of years.

There were also two chests, one of which had been completely corrupted and shattered, and some scroll-like objects were scattered inside. It was also shattered, almost reduced to ashes.

It should be some precious calligraphy and painting. But due to improper storage, coupled with the corrosion of time. It was completely destroyed.

The other box was fairly intact, but it would have fallen apart at the slightest touch.

Its volume did not exceed one cubic meter, and Zhou Chen put it all into a compartment of the storage bracelet.

Enter the storage space and open it again, so that even if the box is shattered, the contents will still be intact and will not break.

In an uproar, Zhou Chen threw out the broken box with another shake of his hand, and a large number of things were kept in the bracelet: gold and silver ingots, various jewelry, and three pieces of porcelain.

In particular, the small box containing the porcelain is basically intact, after all, it is stored in a large box and is doubly protected.

"It looks like blue and white porcelain."

No matter how much Zhou Chen doesn't understand antiques, he also knows the general appearance of blue and white porcelain, and he also knows that this thing is extremely valuable. In comparison, the gold and silver jewels are less valuable.

"All three committed suicide by taking poison."

The phantom made a judgment based on the characteristics of the skeleton: "It may be that he was wanted by the government at the time, and he had no way to live, and he lost hope of survival, so he could only die here." ”

It should be people from the late Ming and early Qing dynasties, right?

Zhou Chen didn't bother to explore, after all, we are not historians, but the jade pendant found in the palm of one of the bones next seemed very unusual.

This jade pendant was held tightly in the hands of the deceased, and it turned into bones, and it could still be firmly grasped, which shows that he still maintained a deep obsession with it before he died.

There are many strange characters engraved on the back of the jade pendant, and there are only two words on the front: Yongxian.

Eternal Immortal? What do you mean, a person's name?

"You try to instill a little internal strength."

Apparently, the Phantom has already recognized its specific purpose.

Zhou Chen tried to instill a little internal force into it, and immediately sensed that this jade pendant could actually devour internal force...... No, no, it should be possible to store internal forces.

"Got it?" Phantom asked.

Zhou Chen nodded silently and put away the jade pendant.

It's not that there is anything peculiar about the jade itself, but that the refining method is quite good, and this thing can already be called an auxiliary magic weapon created by cultivators, which shows that there really existed a certain group of people in ancient China......

The specific origin of the jade pendant must not be able to be studied now, but Zhou Chen has a feeling that this eternal immortal jade pendant will sooner or later let himself encounter some people and certain things.

The other end of the cave completely collapsed, and it was artificially blocked, indicating that the three dead came from the entrance to the bottom of the lake, and they were able to swim through the underground water channel of more than 300 meters, relying on the power of mortals, at least they had to be some accomplished internal kung fu practitioners.

Was it a cultivation sect in ancient times?

Zhou Chen felt that there was no need to guess and think too much now, so he returned the same way, swam back to the bottom of the lake, and sealed the entrance with a large amount of silt, which was regarded as a respect for the three deceased, so that their tomb, which was not a tomb, would continue to be maintained and not disturbed as much as possible.

That night, Zhou Chen drove to Kunming, found a similar hotel to live in, searched on the Internet, and did not find any useful information related to 'Yongxian', so he put down the matter of jade pendant for the time being, and took more than a dozen photos of the three blue and white flowers, and sent them to Liu Zhenyu on the silver side of the silver sea.

Soon, Liu Zhenyu called and asked, "What do you mean?" You got these three pieces of blue and white porcelain? ”

"Just tell me how much it's worth, right?"

Zhou Chen's reaction was relatively flat, after all, we are already nouveau riche with a net worth of more than 10 million, and we are no longer the original little clerk who has never seen money.

"It should be Ming Xuande blue and white porcelain."

Liu Zhenyu replied in a serious tone: "If it is really an official kiln, the auction price of each piece can exceed four million, which can be said to be easy...... Of course, this is only my preliminary estimate, I didn't see anything, only looking at the photos, no one dared to be 100% sure. ”

Then he asked: "Dude, didn't you go to Yunnan to rob tombs?" ”

"Almost."

Zhou Chen smiled silently, how could he not know his careful thoughts: "Okay, let's do this first, at least leave one piece to be auctioned by your hand." (To be continued.) )
