Chapter 528: The Waterway Suffers Its First Setback

Take the main tomb road, in fact, is the worst choice, an intact tomb, especially the tomb of a god-level general like Li Cunxiao, the main tomb road is bound to be in crisis, because there is only one way to enter the tomb, and the tomb builders will inevitably work hard here, especially Li Keyong is still guilty of Li Cunxiao, and will definitely order craftsmen to build multiple mechanisms to strictly prevent the invasion of tomb robbers.

The other two roads appeared later, the waterway appeared because of the erosion of groundwater for many years, causing the collapse of the tomb and the diversion, and the robbery of the cave was done by the tomb robbers, and the corresponding organs will naturally be much less, but it is not so easy to penetrate.

Of course, Xun Mengqi chose to take the waterway not because the waterway was relatively safe, but because he saw the clothes left by several people in the Blood Knife Gate, since the people of the Blood Knife Gate chose this road, Ren Xiaotian's brothers and sisters may also go into the water, so she ......

After a long period of breath-holding diving, Xun Mengqi finally reappeared on the shore with Chu Xiang and a few people, and there was a natural karst cave in sight, and it was pitch black all around, and I didn't know where it led. Qiu Xi, Zhang Di, and the Ghost King went into the cave to investigate first, while the others lit a fire on the spot, preparing to dry their clothes before leaving.

Rao is more than 20 zhang underground, there are still a lot of plants alive, Liu Ada collected some wood branches and grass leaves to make a fire, but saw a pile of burned firewood next to the earthen wall not far away, emitting a wisp of green smoke, obviously the traces left by the previous group of people.

Chu Xiang and Cui Yao hurriedly stepped forward to carefully observe and search, and after a while, Chu Xiang reported: "Sect Master, this group of people should have just left, and they seem to be in a hurry. ”

"Right Envoy Chu, how do you see this?" Zhang Shuilong asked while roasting the fire.

Chu Xiang frowned, pointed to the ground and explained: "You see, there are many messy footprints on the ashes, indicating that they left in a hurry, and this small wisp of unburned cloth shirt should have accidentally touched the flames, looking at this shirt is very rough, it must be a good man we don't know......"

When Chu Xiang said this, he thought about it with his chin in his hand, but Xun Mengqi said: "Not necessarily, there are many people at the eighteen tables who are still dressed in disguise, so this group of people may know each other." ”

Cui Yao and the others nodded undeniably, and Cui Yao asked again: "What is the reason why they are in such a hurry?" ”

Xun Mengqi was about to shake his head, but suddenly heard a terrible scream from the cave behind him, this sound was unfamiliar to him, but Zhang Shuilong and the others were very familiar!

"It's an old enemy!" Zhang Shuilong and the three of them yelled at the same time, and immediately got up and were about to break into the cave, but they saw a black shadow flashing in front of them, Xun Mengqi was already standing in front of the three of them, and stopped: "I, Chu Xiang, and Cui Yao go in first, you take care of the aftermath!" ”

Zhang Shuilong and the three of them understood the aftermath, although they were anxious, they could only obey orders, they carefully handled the firewood that was about to be burned, and Xun Mengqi and the three of them had already broken into the depths of the cave.

Although it was very dark all around, Xun Mengqi and the three of them did not carefully explore the way, not because they were reckless, but because of the three of Qiu Xi's "thunder", this road was at least safe. The three of them galloped at full speed, and after a while, they smelled a very strong smell of blood, and the three of them stopped following the fishy smell, but they couldn't see in the darkness and couldn't understand what was going on.

However, this is not difficult for Xun Mengqi, the two flying needles shot out, and the moment sparks were sparked in the air, the shocking bloodstains on the surrounding earthen walls cast a shadow on his heart, and Qiu Xi and the three of them were obviously in danger!

Chu Xiang and Cui Yao drew gourds in the same way, one took out the sword and the other made the knife slowly rub out a trace of sparks, and the piercing friction sound eroded the eardrums of the three people, like a screaming ghost.

With this spark, the three of them saw a bloody corpse on the ground, and they were going to say that it should be half, because the upper body of the corpse had long since disappeared!

Chu Xiang was horrified in his heart, and was about to draw another trace of spark, but a ray of fire faintly appeared behind him, but it was Zhang Shuilong and the three of them who arrived, and fortunately, Jia Banxian was shrewd, and he also brought a simple torch with him when he left.

With the torch, he can naturally see more clearly, Zhang Shuilong and the three of them are inevitably frightened, but Xun Mengqi can't care about comforting, and he is not good at comforting his subordinates, so he just took the torch and squatted down to carefully examine the wounds of the deceased.

"It's Qiu Xi!" Cui Yao gritted his teeth and said hatefully.

"Who did it?" After the fright, Liu A's eyes widened in anger and asked quickly.

Xun Mengqi didn't answer him, just shook his head slightly, and didn't know what he was thinking. Chu Xiang also saw the greasy wound of the corpse, and explained to Zhang Shuilong and the others: "This is not man-made, but bestial!" ”

"Bestiality?" Cui Yao was puzzled.

"That's right." Chu Xiang nodded and said, "You see that this wound is not flat at all, and there is a tooth mark on the side waist that is not very obvious, it should be caused by a fierce beast!" ”

"You mean a beast swallowed half of his body alive?" Cui Yao still didn't believe Chu Xiang's words, because with Qiu Xi's skills, he would not be swallowed alive by the big insects and beasts and had no power to fight back.

Of course, Chu Xiang understood what Cui Yao meant, and he was also a little unconvinced, and said suspiciously: "Although the cave is narrow and can't be opened, it is impossible for the three of them to be so poor?" Could it be that there are other enemies on the flank that are affecting the three-man defense? ”

Chu Xiang and the others really didn't understand, and their eyes full of anxiety all looked at Xun Mengqi, at this time Xun Mengqi had already observed the surroundings, and only listened to him explain lightly: "Don't you hear that there are violent lions in the depths of the Netherworld Mountain, there are alien birds in the 100,000 mountains, and there is such a big difference between the beasts above and below the mountain, how can the ordinary beasts on the ground be compared with the strange beasts underground?" Xun Mengqi said this, glanced around at the bloodstains, and then said: "I look at this bloodstained mottled, the old and the new, presumably the attacker who was attacked by the strange beast is not only Qiu Xi, the people who walked the waterway before were also killed, but the corpses were swallowed by the strange beasts......"

"Isn't that Zhang Di and the Ghost King ......" Zhang Shuilong didn't dare to imagine what happened to the two of them, if the two of them were also devoured by foreign beasts, then the price of going to the tomb this time would be too heavy!

"Nope." Xun Mengqi noticed that the morale was low, and waved his hand and said: "It is also possible that the two of them are still alive, but the road after that, I want you to think carefully before leaving." ”

"Consider what?" Liu Adaa asked.

Hearing this, Xun Mengqi glanced back at Liu Ah and the three of them, and said slowly: "At the beginning, I asked the right envoy of Chu to pass on the news of the thirteen tombs to you, and I wanted to promise a fortune, but now you have also seen that there is a danger here, even I am unable to protect myself, I don't force you, whether you turn around and go back or continue with me, you must think about it carefully." ”

Silence, death-like silence, half of Qiu Xi's corpse is still at his feet, he was trapped by this before he got out of the school, you can imagine how dangerous and difficult the road will be in the future, and anyone will have the idea of retreating. Besides, even if he went through many difficulties and dangers to the end and won the Nine Heavens Divine Dragon Armor, this Divine Armor must not fall into the hands of the sect master? I can't get any benefit from it, so why bother?

Liu Ada lowered his head and glanced at Jia Banxian on the right side, his expression was very entangled, as if he had the intention of retreating, and his heart was secretly happy, he was just about to show his intention to retreat with Xun Mengqi, but he heard Zhang Shuilong on his side kneeling on one knee, and solemnly clasped his fists and swore an oath: "My Yellow River Gang has received the favor of the Divine Dragon Sect Master, so that we can have today's achievements. At that time, Zhang swore that in this life, only the dream sect leader is the head of the horse, the sword mountain and the sea of fire, and he will never give up! The sect leader must not say anything to let Zhang retreat in the future. ”

Scare! This idiot, it's really damn bad! Liu Ada scolded Zhang Shuilong in his heart, and on the other side, Jia Banxian also followed Zhang Shuilong's oath of allegiance, willing to be a pawn and never betray the Divine Sect......

Xun Mengqi listened to this, nodded with satisfaction, and looked at Liu Ada meaningfully. Liu Ah cursed secretly, and he could only swear allegiance, because he had realized that Xun Mengqi had said before that it was a temptation to let them consider leaving, and once they really left, I was afraid that a catastrophe would come in the future!

Xun Mengqi didn't say anything more, took out a sun and moon order from his arms, and took the lead in entering the depths of the cave after sacrificing hatred.

Looking at the yellow paper talisman burned to ashes in mid-air, Zhang Shuilong and the three of them looked at each other, and they all cried and followed helplessly.

……

The infestation of water dragons and beasts is very dangerous, and the road to the cave is also not easy, from the cave thief all the way down the slope, I don't know how long it took, Yin Baizhan only felt that his buttocks were about to wear out, and then he slipped to the ground.

The tomb in front of him is quite spacious, it is one of the many accompanying tombs of the thirteen tombs, there are four or five torches inserted in the stone wall of the tomb, I think it is Zhao Tuo's means, there are people here to add oil and fire, that means that this place is still very safe. Yan Yunfei and the three of them roughly browsed the murals in the tomb, the painting was a little rough, recording the life of the mourner, and it should be a young general under Li Cunxiao. The three of them drew two torches, walked out of the side tomb directly, and entered the main burial chamber of the burial tomb, the exquisite burial objects around have long been emptied, only some shoddy bottles and cans remain, the coffin lid in the center of the tomb has long been lost, and the funeral ornaments and weapons in the coffin have also been scavenged.

Yan Yunfei's purpose for the three of them was naturally not here, and they passed through the stone door of the main burial chamber of the burial tomb safely, and a long tomb pit appeared, and a lot of loess around it seemed to have just been turned out, Yan Yunfei guessed that it was a road dug by Zhao Tuo, which should be very safe. The three of them did not hesitate, walked about a few hundred steps along the new tomb road, and suddenly became much more empty in front of them, a cool breeze blowing underground made Yan Yunfei cough, Xiao Wusheng held the torch and looked around, but suddenly exclaimed, with an incredible look as if he had seen the fairy palace.

Yin Baizhan kept patting Yan Yunfei on the back, and after he eased up, the two of them also looked ahead in the firelight, and they also exclaimed, it was really a miracle of generosity!

It was no wonder that the three of them were surprised, after all, none of them had robbed the tomb, let alone seen such a huge terracotta army, which was enough for a cavalry battalion, and there was no end in sight under this faint firelight. The production of iron figurines is very realistic, lifelike, some are in the battle competition, some are feeding the grain and grass, and some are rehearsing and arranging, in a thousand postures, and so on. The barracks are iron-blooded, rolling yellow dust, and the breath of Jin Ge Iron Horse is blowing in the face, which makes people's blood boiling!

Yan Yunfei and the three of them were located in the west tunnel one zhang high from the terracotta warriors, Yan and Xiao sighed for a while, and then flew down to the camp, Yin Baizhan jumped down, Yan Yunfei caught it firmly, and the three of them entered the iron warrior pile while talking.

Rushing all the way to the south, on the way, I found a lot of footprints left by several groups of people, there were no traces of blood and fighting, so that the three of them felt a lot more at ease, and I don't know how long it took, and finally came to the end of the terracotta pit, an iron gate was half open and half hidden, and the three of them immediately entered the iron gate.

The iron gate is still the tomb road, different from the previous earth pit road, here the tomb road first step down the stone steps lead to the unknown dark depths, the surrounding stone walls are very smooth, the three of them guessed that they should have entered the main tomb of the thirteen tombs, it's time to cheer up the spirit of twelve, be careful!
