Zhengxian Ancient Cave Chapter 7 The Cave in the Cave
I closed my eyes, and the previous picture appeared in my mind, the medicine man and the soldiers dug a hole here, and then kept digging, digging a long tunnel, but it still didn't stop, they seemed to be digging something, and there was a Taoist priest next to the medicine man.

Actually, since the last time I left the Yin Valley, I have this kind of special ability, as long as I stand in one place and close my eyes, I can see what happened before, probably related to that stone.
I slowly opened my eyes, and Merlin pulled me up. When I got back to the top, my thoughts were pretty much clear.
Merlin saw that my expression was so serious, and asked, "Childe, what's down there?"
Only then did I react and said, "I finally understand why that pharmacist has been here for a year, he is actually trying to mobilize troops to dig this tunnel under the pretense of helping King Han make poisoners, and these coffins should have been transported from below."
Merlin was surprised to hear me say this, and asked, "So what are they digging up here?"
"Tombs". I blurted out those two words.
"Tombs? It can't be, Childe, they're not us, how can they ......" Merlin couldn't believe what I was saying, he felt that only I knew about the ancient tomb.
"There is a paper talisman pasted below, indicating that the pharmacist there invited a Taoist priest, and the Taoist priest can read feng shui, so you can infer that there is an ancient tomb, and the book I asked you to copy is not on it." I looked at Merlin and said.
Merlin suddenly realized, "Yes, it was indeed written in that book, what should we do now, that son."
"Since you are here, you have to find out and go down." With that, I reached out and jumped down.
Merlin and the others jumped into the tunnel with me. When I came down, I realized that the whole tunnel was covered with paper charms on both sides, and a large amount of mourning paper was thrown at my feet.
Merlin asked again, "Childe, why are there so many here, it looks scary."
As I walked forward, I replied, "They sealed their mouths, and there was only one reason why they had placed so many paper talismans here, and that was that they didn't want the contents to escape, they must have found ...... in them."
I didn't finish my sentence anymore, because I felt as if something was coming towards us. I stopped and stared into the depths of the darkness as the thing slowly approached.
I hurriedly shouted "Get down, and then keep your head down and don't look". With my shout, Mo Lin and the others behind him hurriedly lay on the mountain. I also hurriedly lay on the ground and lowered my head.
A gust of wind whistled, I only felt a chill in my back, and we slowly got up after the wind passed, and then a brother's voice came from behind, "Childe, two people failed to lie down in time and died."
I sighed deeply, but we had to keep going anyway, so we kept going. I don't know how long we walked before we came to a burial chamber.
In the center of this burial chamber there are many stone statues of soldiers, like terracotta warriors and horses, these stone statues are vividly carved, some with their heads raised, some with their heads bowed, and some with their arms outstretched.
Just as I was engrossed in looking at the statues again, Merlin pointed to the top of the statues and shouted, "Childe, look what it is."
I hurriedly looked up, and saw a coffin hanging in the air with a rope, and there were many ropes around the coffin.
Merlin looked at the coffin and asked, "Childe, why is there a coffin hanging here?"
"There is a burial method that hangs the coffin in the air, and it is called an empty burial, and I think the coffins above were originally hung here like this coffin." I replied solemnly.
"They were able to take down so many coffins, why did they leave this coffin, and I think this coffin is much bigger than the ones above." Merlin said, looking at the coffin above.
Indeed, this coffin is not only amazingly large, but even the material of the coffin is also a good gloomy wood, this wood is not afraid of water, not afraid of shade, not afraid of soil invasion, but can still be well preserved, the pattern engraved on the coffin is also very exquisite. I also wondered why they left this coffin alone, and whether it was because something happened at the time that they couldn't get it down.
At this time, the two brothers slowly walked towards the bottom of the coffin. Maybe it was out of curiosity, maybe they wanted to see the beautifully carved stone statues, but when they approached the central part, two black things fell from the coffin, and because the distance was too far to see what they were, the two black things flew towards the two brothers as if they were alive, and when they touched their bodies, a magical scene happened, and the two of them turned into stone statues, which surprised us.
"Childe, what's going on, they, they've turned to stone". Merlin said with some panic.
"Don't go near the middle, let's go around". I said out loud. Then I slowly continued to move forward against the wall, and Merlin and the others followed closely behind me. As I walked, I stared at the coffin above the middle, for fear that the kind of thing I had just made would come out again.
But when we had not taken a few steps, the coffin began to tremble slowly, and the coffin trembled a few times, and then out of the coffin came a mass of black things, and the black rumbling did not know what it was, except that they were coming at us.
"Everyone, run". Hearing my shout, everyone ran desperately to the front gate.
I looked behind me as I ran, and the black stuff slowly swallowed the three people at the back. The rest of us ran out of that chamber with all our might, but ran into another chamber, and the black stuff didn't chase after me, which I thought wasn't a good thing, maybe there was something up front that scared the black stuff.
This chamber was much brighter than the one before, and there were many open coffins in this chamber, and they stood there, and there was nothing in them, and there was no way forward in the chamber.
I slowly walked into a coffin, only to see a line engraved in the coffin: If you want to move forward, you must understand life and death.
"Childe, what does this sentence mean". Merlin also stared at the line and asked.
