Chapter 101: Poisonous

The houses here are beautifully presented and well preserved. This underground city has stone pillars at intervals. Each stone pillar has a huge pearl of the night.

The floor here is also paved with the same blue stone slabs as above, which is neat and clean. If it weren't for the dead silence here, it's hard to imagine that this is an empty city.

"That's a lot of money! It seems that the city above is just a pediatric! Ma Mingxuan was surprised.

"Will there be anyone alive here? I can't tell it's an empty city! Yuan Hai said in disbelief.

"Let's go in and see." After Liu Feng finished speaking, he took the lead and walked in.

The four of them came to the city and opened the door of a house. Suddenly, I found that there were several people sitting in the middle of the living room in the house, but these people had been dead for a long time and had already become dry corpses!

Liu Feng took a closer look and found that these people were all sitting cross-legged, with a gesture in their hands that they didn't know what they meant. Through the expressions of these people, there was no painful look.

The Great Elder said, "These people seem to have known that they are going to die, and they have not seen them look in pain. It's really puzzling! ”

"It's really weird here, let's be careful! Let's see if there's anything useful! Ma Mingxuan said, and searched in the room.

The room was very basic, except for some ordinary daily necessities, nothing special was found.

The Great Elder said to a few people, "It's all ordinary here, let's go to other places and have a look!" ”

Several people walked out of the house, and suddenly Liu Feng found a bucket at the back of the house.

Hurriedly walked over, Liu Feng found that there was a well next to the bucket. The probe looked and saw that it was not dry.

Hurriedly shouted to a few people: "There is a water source here!" ”

The three of them immediately walked over and were very happy to see that there was really a water source here. Liu Feng used a bucket and fetched a bucket of water. The four of them took a closer look and found that the water was very clear and did not appear to be polluted.

Ma Mingxuan said happily: "This is great, we are not afraid of water with water!" After finishing speaking, he scooped up the water and was about to drink it, but the Great Elder hurriedly stopped him.

said: "Let's be careful, the people here are all dead in vain." ”

When Ma Mingxuan saw the Great Elder say this, he immediately quieted down. The Great Elder's fears were very reasonable, and if the water was poisoned, the consequences would be severe.

The Great Elder scooped up a little water with a scoop of water next to him, put it in front of his nose and sniffed it carefully. Then he took out a silver needle and put it into the water and probed it.

Yuan Hai asked, "How is it?" Can you drink it? ”

The Great Elder nodded and said, "It should be fine!" ”

"That's great! Let's find something to pack! Ma Mingxuan said excitedly.

"Let's go to the next room to see the situation, and find some more bottles by the way!" Liu Feng said to the three of them.

"Good! Without further ado, this is not the place to stay for long. Leave as soon as possible! The Great Elder nodded.

The four immediately ran to several nearby houses in search of water bottles.

Liu Feng entered a nearby house. After entering the door, Liu Feng found that this family was also the same as the family just now, they were all sitting cross-legged together, with an unknown gesture in their hands. There was no trace of pain on his face.

Soon, several people found a lot of water bottles.

Ma Mingxuan asked, "Are the rooms you just entered the same as the ones we saw before?" ”

Liu Feng nodded and said, "Hmm!" It's also a family sitting around, making the same gesture! ”

The Great Elder and Yuan Hai also said that they had seen the same situation. All four of them felt the strangeness of this place and were reluctant to linger longer. Quickly wash the water bottle and fill it with water.

Soon the four of them filled all the water bottles, and none of them carried enough water bottles on their backs and walked towards the center of the city. In the center of the city, there is a very conspicuous tower-shaped building. Mainly because it's the tallest building in the underground city.

On the way, the four of them checked out a lot of houses along the road, and the situation inside was all the same.

The four of them came to the tower-shaped building and carefully looked at the pagoda.

The pagoda has nine floors and a plaque hangs above the gate. It is engraved with three large characters in ancient characters.

Liu Feng looked at it for a long time and asked, "What is this word?" ”

Ma Mingxuan replied: "I only know that this is a kind of hieroglyphic script in ancient times, and I don't know what is written specifically!" ”

At this time, the Great Elder said, "This is written on the Nine Dragon Tower!" ”

"Nine Dragon Tower? Don't know what's inside? Let's get in quickly! Yuan Hai urged.

"Let's go!" The Great Elder led the way inside.

Pushing open the gate of the Nine Dragons Tower, a gust of wind suddenly blew inside, and the four of them were startled, and hurriedly made a defensive posture. The four of them waited for a while, but saw no other movement.

Ma Mingxuan said: "What's the situation? Do you want to go in? ”

The Great Elder took a closer look inside and said, "This is sealed, just now we suddenly pushed open the door, and the air caused convection. That's how it should be! ”

Liu Feng said: "It's very likely, we have to find the exit quickly!" ”

The Great Elder nodded, and together with Liu Feng, he took the lead in entering the first floor of the Nine Dragon Tower.

No danger was found inside, everything was normal. The four of them also put their minds at ease and carefully examined the situation inside.

There's nothing else in it, just murals on the walls.

"What are these paintings? I don't understand it at all! Do you know what these things are? Ma Mingxuan asked.

Liu Feng also shook his head in confusion and replied, "I can't understand it either!" ”

The Great Elder and Yuan Hai were also full of confusion, obviously not knowing what these paintings were.

"Maybe it's the history of this ancient city, right? I'm not so sure. The Great Elder thought for a moment and said.

Ma Mingxuan saw that everyone didn't know, so he didn't want to waste any more time.

He said to the three of them, "Forget it, let's not waste time here." Let's go up and have a look! ”

The four of them no longer bothered about the contents of these murals and walked towards the top of the tower. Eight floors in a row, all covered with murals and nothing else. The top floor is located at the spire and is not large.

As soon as they entered, the four of them stopped. There are no frescoes in this room, but there is a man sitting cross-legged on a futon. This man, like everyone else here, has been dead for a long time. In front of him was a small square table, on which was a wooden box carved with a dragon.

The four of them were immediately attracted by this carved dragon wooden box and looked at it carefully.

"This wooden box is placed here like this, it must be more important. Maybe there's a way to get out! Yuan Hai said and reached for the wooden box.

The Great Elder's face suddenly changed, and he shouted, "Don't touch it with your hands!" ”

It's a pity that his voice was still a step late, and Yuan Hai had already opened the wooden box.

At the moment when the wooden box was opened, a wisp of green smoke came out of the wooden box. The green smoke did not drift away directly, but hit Yuan Hai's hand that opened the wooden box.

As if a magnet was attracted, this wisp of green smoke floated to Yuan Hai's hand at an extremely fast speed. The smoke went directly down the pores in his hand and into Yuan Hai's palm.

All this happened the moment Yuan Hai opened the lid of the box, leaving Yuan Hai with no time to react at all. By the time he heard the Great Elder's warning, the green smoke had already burrowed into his palm.

In the next second, the blood vessels on Yuan Hai's face and hands instantly turned black. It's like you're going through a lot of pain.

When the other three saw this, they were all shocked. Since coming to this underground ancient city, they have not encountered any danger, which makes them a little careless. I didn't expect the danger to come so suddenly.

The three of them looked at the painful Yuan Hai, and their faces were solemn. I don't know where to start. Yuan Hai's pain didn't last long, and after only a few seconds, he completely fell to the ground and died.

Looking at Yuan Hai, whose whole body was blackened, the three of them had a numb scalp.

Liu Feng was secretly glad that it was not himself who had just opened the wooden box. If it's you, you can't hide from it. It's scary to think about. If you want to get out alive next, you must not be so careless again.

"What kind of poison is this? So ruthless! Ma Mingxuan said with some palpitations.

"I've never heard of such a powerful poison. It's just hard to prevent! Liu Feng replied.

The Great Elder looked at the dead Yuan Hai and felt a little lonely in his heart. Although they have no affection for Yuan Hai, they have been together for decades anyway. This time, the eight elders gathered here, but they didn't expect that they were the only ones left now. It's a bit of a rabbit dead fox sad meaning.

Liu Feng looked at the somewhat sad Great Elder, and he also sighed.

Comforting: "Mourn! Since he is here, he should have the consciousness of death. All of us should be aware of death! Now we can only try our best to keep the living alive! ”

The Great Elder let out a sigh and replied, "Life is changeable, and things are impermanent. No one can predict their own life or death. All right! As long as we are alive, we have to try to live. Don't move anything here easily, be careful not to touch him! ”
