Chapter 87
"Then you mean, behind the bronze door isn't the main chamber of this tomb? Or is this just a mound at all? Professor Chen's subordinate looked skeptical, but also expressed intense disappointment.
Thinking that the goal was close at hand, and now suddenly someone told him that it was a fake, worthless at all - it was like feeding the food to his mouth with a spoon and suddenly finding that the food had become a spoonful of poop, which was a terrible feeling.
Wang Fugui glanced at him and said: "The void mound is not enough, it is estimated that it is a fake main room, and there are many such methods in the tomb, not worse than this one." According to common sense, the real main room is generally near the fake main room, after all, there is only one feng shui longan, no matter which tomb owner or his relatives will not be kind enough to give the feng shui longan to the stand-in. Let's go in and look for it, don't touch anything, there should be a passage to the main burial chamber. β
These words immediately aroused the enthusiasm of everyone present.
Man is a very strange creature, when faced with fear or even death, he will always complain and regret all kinds of regrets, thinking that he should not be this or that, and he will not encounter danger. But if you are lucky enough to escape this fate, and there is still a great temptation waiting in front of you - then the danger you have just encountered will be subconsciously and automatically ignored, thinking that since you can pass the previous level, then the next level may not be a big deal, and if you want to die, you will also die to others.
And now the people in the tomb are in this state.
Bai Suhe has always sat in the last row of the crowd, because among the people present, she and Meng Zheng are probably the two most ignorant of the structure of the ancient tomb, so whether they continue or leave, they are the two people who have the least right to speak. Therefore, Bai Suhe did not pay special attention to the discussion in the field, and her focus was on Meng Zheng, who was also sitting in the last row, next to her.
In addition to the fragrance in the tomb, Meng Zheng also endured a needle from Bai Suhe. As a result, my sanity came to my senses very late, and even now, it is still a bit hazy. Because of this hazy state, she lost the smile she usually wore on her face, and her round face was reflected by the light of the torches that jumped around her, making her look a little gloomy.
"Meng Zheng? Are you awake? Bai Suhe looked at Meng Zheng's expression, and felt a little out of tune. After all, a face that is always sunny and innocent suddenly appears gloomy, and it always feels particularly disagreeable. She was afraid that she was drugged and couldn't hold the strength in her hand, so she pierced this already stupid girl even more stupidly with a needle.
"Huh?" Bai Suhe shouted twice in a row, and Meng Zheng showed the appearance of waking up from a dream, half-opening his mouth, and he changed back to the previous Meng Zheng stupidly.
"I said, are you awake?"
"Oh, wake up, wake up." Meng Zheng muttered in response, but her mind was still thinking about the dream she had.
In the dream, it was pitch black all around, and only lightning did not break the suffocating darkness. She was in this darkness, staring at a brightly lit courtyard in the distance, with a piercing hatred, eager to cut the people in the courtyard with a thousand knives.
A thousand cuts!
Meng Zheng shuddered when he remembered this idiom he had recently learned from a book.
How could she think that? It's horrible!
Meng Zheng shook his head in annoyance, hoping to get the inexplicable dream out of his head. Then she heard Lan Zui say, "Since they all agree, then continue." β
The familiar sound of chains resounded in the tomb, and the tall bronze door slowly opened again, revealing another space inside and the still brilliant seven-star door behind it.
This time, Lan Zui, Jun Yihuang, Uncle Zhong, Yu Chen and Wang Fugui, the five of them walked into the tall bronze door first.
As for Jun Yihuang's previous expression, everyone tacitly never mentioned it - that kind of ability to stop the flames and the fear of filling the room with green flames, whether it was true or not, was similar to Bai Suhe's charm as Lan Zui said, but it was definitely not something they could match.
So in this case, no one wants to pierce this layer of window paper to anger Jun Yihuang and Lan Zui.
The bronze door was opened for the second time, but the blue drunken were the first time they entered the world behind the door.
Before, because Burigood and a few people went straight to the coffin behind the Seven Star Gate, they basically didn't stop in front of the Seven Star Gate, and everyone was tied up outside the bronze gate, and they didn't see the whole picture of the Seven Star Gate.
This time they did not rush forward, and raised their torches and carefully walked every step, so that the Panorama of the Seven Star Gate and behind the door really came into view.
The size of the Seven Star Gate was almost comparable to the bronze door outside, and when I got closer, I found that the material of the door seemed to be crystal. Crystal, also known as water jade, is a rare mineral that grows in the ground and in caves under harsh conditions in ancient times.
And this seven-star gate is carved from a whole piece of crystal, with low impurity content and excellent transparency, and its precious Cheng dΓΉ can be seen.
Through the Seven Star Gate, you can see half of the so-called 'main room' behind it. I can only see half of it because the space of the tomb inside is too wide, resulting in a blind spot in the perspective, and some parts of the left and right are hidden in the dark.
But just the part that can be seen is enough to make people gasp.
The ground is black, as is the burial chamber, so it was not previously found outside the bronze door. But when they got closer, Lan Zui and the others found that the ground inside the Seven Star Gate was covered with a lump of pitch-black things, all curled up in a ball, merging with the ground and the darkness.
They had witnessed the death of several of the people of Burigood outside, and when they saw these things, they had already guessed that this was the remains of human beings burned by the fire.
The body was clinging to the ground, no longer humanoid, and the whole body was charred black, not even a trace of flesh color could be seen, and it was completely burned into a pile of charcoal. There are not only five pieces of this coke-like thing, but also several large pieces, which are obviously stacked on top of each other when the person dies, so they are frozen together forever after burning.
"This mechanism...... That's a lot of people killed. Uncle Zhong let out a surprised sigh that resembled an exclamation.
Yu Chen and Wang Fugui didn't speak, but their faces weren't so good-looking.
Now they finally know what happened to those guys who didn't go back to the Yu family.
"Don't go in yet, I'll go in and have a look." Wang Fugui hesitated for a moment, but still said.
"No way!" Yu Chen immediately objected, with the coke inside the door as an example, he didn't want Wang Fugui, who was in love with his father and son, to go in and take risks alone.
"I'll go in with you." Uncle Zhong looked at Yu Chen, then at Lan Zui, and said, "The more people who enter, the easier it is to trigger the mechanism." And there is no need for so many people to go in and take risks, Lao Wang and I have rich experience in going to the ground, and a few of you stay outside. β
After saying that, without waiting for Yu Chen and Lan Zui to stop them, he and Wang Fugui pushed open the Seven Star Gate and walked in, leaving the two juniors who regarded them as children outside.
"Why didn't she go in, wouldn't she be able to stop the fire?" Although there was no accident yet, seeing the elders who were in love with father and son involved in danger, Yu Chen couldn't hold back his feelings, and finally raised his own questions, transferring his anger and worry to Jun Yihuang.
"Nope." Lan Zui stared at the situation inside the door, his eyes were not instantaneous, and he once again rejected Yu Chen's question.
"Why not! It is the principle of businessmen to exchange the least casualties for the greatest benefit. Lan Zui, you are also a businessman, she obviously has the ability to protect herself and will not be injured, why can't you go in and help us explore the way? β
"I said, no, no, no." Lan Zui finally turned his eyes from inside the door to Yu Chen's face: "Junjun is not a pawn to explore the path, no matter what ability she has. With me here, I won't let her get into danger, not a single step. If you dare to hit her again, don't blame me for being unkind. β
These words were like cold ice, and word by word hit Yu Chen's head. Lan Zui's expression was like guarding her most precious treasure, and she couldn't allow others to covet it in the slightest.
This look also suppressed Yu Chen's words that he had planned to continue.
Lan Zui glanced at Jun Yihuang, who was standing silently behind her with a complicated expression, and then turned his eyes back to the door, paying attention to Uncle Zhong and Wang Fugui's actions.
She remembered her dream, the acquaintance of Su Lingyu and Jun Yihuang. She also remembered that thunderstorm night, Jun Yihuang's timely arrival and that soft and warm hug.
She remembers the aftermath of that rescue.
Jun Yihuang did not get the edict, saw Su Lingyu without permission, and defended Su Lingyu in front of Emperor Nanzhao. Emperor Nanzhao pardoned Su Lingyu for his death penalty because of his consideration for Su Lingyu's service and the power of Qi County behind Jun Yihuang.
The Queen Mother was furious.
So in the end, Jun Yihuang was also implicated and removed from the right to associate the six palaces.
Lan Drunk's feelings are complicated. These things were all done by Jun Yihuang for Su Lingyu, and they didn't seem to have anything to do with her. But in her previous life, she was also Su Lingyu.
In order to save her life, she was removed from the power of the sixth house. Even if Lan Zui was not Su Lingyu, she knew what it meant in the palace.
Fall out of favor, loss of power, loss of power.
So Su Lingyu in the dream swore that he would repay Jun Yihuang in this life and never let down her kindness.
After waking up, Lan Zui inherited Su Lingyu's affection, and was full of inexplicable desire to protect Jun Yihuang.
The only thing she can't understand now is that, according to Jun Yihuang, it was Su Lingyu who harmed her, and distracted her soul, so that she could not be reincarnated. But in terms of Su Lingyu's feelings in the dream, Lan Zui now feels that this possibility is getting smaller and smaller.
Did that turn against each other later, or was there something else going on? Is it really Su Lingyu who put Jun Yihuang's soul in this Lan Concubine Mausoleum? Why did she go to such great lengths to hide her soul in such a remote place? What happened back then?
And this qiΔ is all a mystery and is unknown.
