Fortunately, Ye Ci didn't know what Liu Rande was saying at this time, otherwise she might not know how much to discount the image of these old experts.

When he turned around, he saw Yang Zhiyin looking at him angrily, frowning slightly, feeling quite inexplicable, and he didn't really ask, so he simply turned around and left.

As soon as he took a step, his hand tightened, only to find that Yue Yunda had been holding his hand at the beginning, and he hadn't let go until now.

Looking up at him in silence, as if to say let go.

Yue Yun didn't know that Ye Ci was talking about letting go, and when he saw Ye Ci looking up at him, his eyes were still watery, and he immediately burst into joy, like a child who had eaten a lollipop.

Miao Lili was almost sour to death by his expression, slashed her big hand, and shouted: "Okay, okay, this comrade, you will have to charge for holding hands again."

Yue Yun listened to Miao Lili's words, and then realized that he was still holding Ye Ci's hand, and took it back as if he was electrocuted, and said, "Yes, I'm sorry, I didn't pay attention."

Ye Ci shook his head, as if he didn't take it to heart.

Following Liu Rande, he went to the tent of their expedition team to register as a person, put on gloves, and followed them down to the tomb after leaving the tent.

The ancient tomb was indeed isolated by a stone door at this time, and the huge light hit this space of less than ten square meters, illuminating the surrounding walls very brightly, but the stone door was still tightly closed, and there was no place to open it.

Ye Ci lowered his head and took two steps forward, touched the wall beside him, and said, "This wall is not the same as the wall of the main tomb."

Yao Zhengyi tilted his head and asked, "Different?" How do you know".

Ye Ci looked back at him: "I have touched the wall of the main tomb before, it is very rough, more like a natural wall, and the wall in this corridor is too smooth, as if it has been artificially sharpened."

As soon as she finished speaking, Liu Rande and Yao Zhengyi suddenly fell silent, and after a while, they asked again: "Then you mean, there are really artificially created mechanisms in this wall?" ”

Ye Ci replied with some embarrassment: "I'm just guessing, maybe."

Yao Zhengyi shook his hand and said, "No, your guess is very reasonable."

With that, he took two steps forward, touched the wall with his hand, and said to himself, "But where is this mechanism?"

Ye Ci thought for a while and replied, "Team Yao, can you give me a candlestick."

"Candlestick?"

"Yes, candlesticks, turn off all these lights, just one candlestick."

Although Yao Zhengyi didn't know what Ye Ci was going to do, he felt that the little girl in front of him was quite credible.

Out of the hole, I contacted the staff for a while, walked around the village, and finally found a half-palm-sized candlestick and handed it to Ye Ci's hand.

Ye Ci nodded and took it, lit the candle with a match, and was just about to go down to the cave, when he was suddenly stopped by Yue Yun, who had not spoken behind him.

"Ye Ci, don't go down!"

Ye Ci heard Yue Yun's shout, looked back at him with some confusion, and asked him, "What's wrong?" ”

Yue Yun frowned, not knowing how to answer.

He can't say anything like that, "I had a dream yesterday that you fell off a cliff with a candlestick, and that's what you look like now."

Slightly embarrassed, he said, "I, I want to go down with you."

Ye Ci didn't know why he suddenly made such a request, and glanced at Liu Rande.

Liu Rande smoked Yue Yun's two packs of cigarettes, his eyes shook from side to side at this time, and he replied: "Tsk, just go down, it's such a big place, you young people are too, it's so inseparable to fall in love."

Ye Ci wanted to explain to him that he and Yue Yun were not that relationship.

Seeing Yue Yun frowning, he looked preoccupied, so he simply forgot it. I took his hand and said, "Let's go down then."

Yue Yun nodded in agreement, followed behind Ye Ci, and looked at her back holding the candlestick down to the cave, and was very worried for a while.

He couldn't tell Sù how similar she was to the person in his dream yesterday.

sighed and asked in a deep voice: "Ye Ci, where did you get this candle?" ”

Ye Ci probably felt Yue Yun's nervousness, glanced back at him, and comforted: "I don't know, it should have been sent by someone from the village, don't worry, you see."

Yue Yun closed his mouth and looked at Ye Ci's fingers, only to see that on the wall of the original ordinary tomb corridor, under the flickering candlelight, a sporadic water pattern appeared, and the more people walked inside, the clearer the lines became.

Liu Rande, who was following behind the two, couldn't help but sigh again and again at this time: "Xiao Ye, how do you know that a candle can illuminate these things?" ”

Ye Ci didn't answer, holding the candlestick and still walking inside, until a row of faintly glowing gold inscriptions appeared on the wall in front of her, she stopped and said: "It's a long story, I think the words on this wall should be very important."

Liu Rande didn't know what she was looking at, there was just a plain wall in front of him, and he asked, "Words?" ”

Ye Ci looked back at him and asked, "Didn't you see the words on it?" ”

At this moment, Yue Yun on the side also came up, looked at it carefully for a while, and said, "Words? There's nothing on it except for some ornaments."

Ye Ci froze in place, didn't speak for a long time, stretched out his hand and stroked the wall engraved with ancient texts in front of him for a long time, and said, "However, I can clearly see it."

Liu Rande frowned suspiciously, and asked, "Then what did it say?" ”

Ye Ci looked up and replied, "It says that if the jade bowl is full, the water will overflow." ”

"Will the jade bowl overflow when it is full of water? Jade bowl? ”

Liu Rande stood in place, lowered his head and thought for a while, and said: "When we first entered this tomb, we did find a jade bowl on the right wall, but because it was damaged, it had already been taken to the real yàn room, and there was no water found in it."

Ye Ci listened to his words, turned around, and asked, "Then where did you take that jade bowl from?" ”

Hearing this, Liu Rande immediately turned around, pointed to the right wall near the entrance of the cave, and said, "Right there, do you see the small stone pit protruding, there was the jade bowl there before."

After hearing this, Ye Ci hurriedly walked there.

Liu Rande and Yue Yun followed behind her, and when they were all standing in front of the stone pit, they looked at it at this time, and they were all stunned in place.

The stone pit, which was originally featureless, was now illuminated by the candlelight of the breeze, showing the texture of flowing water.

Such an effect could not be achieved by ordinary lighting before.

Seeing this, Liu Rande immediately shouted to the staff outside the cave: "Xiaohu, go to Team Yao and bring in the jade bowl that I took out before!" ”

The staff member listened to Liu Rande's shout, immediately turned around and left, and came back with the jade bowl after a while, handing it over to him.

Liu Rande carefully placed the stone bowl in the original stone pit, only to see that the jade bowl instantly resembled a magnifying glass that focused light, absorbing the light of the candle heavily, and from the bottom to the top, it became a substance that seemed to be able to flow.

Yue Yun looked at the light in the jade bowl, although he was also surprised, he couldn't help but ask: "Although this is indeed a bit like water, but you said that the water in this jade bowl will overflow when it is full, how can this light overflow?" ”

Liu Rande lowered his head and thought for a while, then replied: "I think this should be a time." You see, the reason why this jade bowl can give the light this water effect is because of its own material, and secondly, because the candle light will be affected by the external wind and light. So, by analogy, when Xiao Ye just said that the water is full, is he referring to a specific period of time, for example, during this time period, the influence of the outside world will make the light in this jade bowl look like it is overflowing."

Ye Ci nodded in agreement, "I agree with Uncle Liu's statement, and, I think, this time is almost up."

Liu Rande tilted his head and asked her, "It's almost there?" How do you know? ”

Ye Ci bowed his head and replied: "I said before, I met a Taoist priest in the tomb, and I actually got this candle method from him." If the Taoist priest also used this method to open the stone door, then the time when he entered the tomb should be in the morning, around this time. ”

"How do you know it's this time period?"

"Because when the Taoist chief came in, he was not discovered by the villagers. I heard Miao Lili say it before, she said that there are people in their village who guard this cave regularly, except for a shift change between half past ten and eleven in the morning, since the Taoist priest has not been discovered, then he must have come in at this time."

Liu Rande listened to Ye Ci's words, suddenly realized, and asked with a smile: "That's right, then do we just need to wait and see what happens?" ”

As soon as he finished speaking, Yue Yun suddenly shouted: "Look, the light is out!" ”

When Ye Ci heard his words, he immediately lowered his head to look at the jade bowl.

I saw that the light in the jade bowl really seemed to flow out at this time, surging little by little with the candle blown by the wind.

She glanced back at the stone gate casually, only to see that a row of golden inscriptions similar to the wall suddenly appeared on the stone wall of the stone gate.

Ye Ci turned around and reached out to touch the words on the stone door.

The hand is as if it is attracted by an external force, and it is deeply attached to it, and it cannot be left.

Seeing this, Liu Rande immediately crossed over her and shouted Yue Yun to push the stone door with his hand.

The stone door was slowly pushed open, and there was a heavy moving sound.

It's just that before Liu Rande could be happy, Ye Ci beside him suddenly seemed to have lost his soul, and his whole body collapsed and fell.

The candlestick fell to the ground and turned into a flickering flame.

Yue Yun shouted, squatting down to hug her. At this time, a sandalwood breeze wafted by, and a white figure suddenly blocked in front of him.

A cold voice rang out, saying, "Don't touch her."
