Although Captain Lai was reluctant to respond to the old man's words, he had to nod his head in the face of the facts in front of him.

Since Captain Lai didn't know how fast Jiang Huo was moving, he could only slow down and follow behind, and when he saw the candles lit on both sides of the tunnel, Captain Lai, who couldn't figure out the situation ahead, didn't dare to speed up his pace. Therefore, when Captain Lai pushed open the iron door and entered the palace, he could no longer find any trace of Jiang Huo in the face of this messy ground.

After listening to Captain Lai's narration, the old man couldn't help frowning, and with a wave of his hand, the arrows and rubble of the dried corpses scattered on the ground were all swept away by him and piled up in the corners of the wall.

"Are there any mechanisms here, have you checked them all?" The old man looked around expressionlessly, in this confined space, it was not easy to disappear mysteriously.

Captain Lai had already done a check here, and after hearing the old man's inquiry, he shook his head again and again, and said, "Third Captain, this palace is very strange, every time I use my aura to explore, there is always an invisible force coming from the stone slab, blocking my perception, and I can't effectively inspect this palace at all......"

The old man's expression froze, and the aura hidden in his body fluctuated violently, and the ripples visible to the naked eye poked out from the soles of his feet, like a tide, spreading out in all directions. After a while, the old man withdrew these aura and shook his head, what Captain Lai said was true, even he couldn't use his aura to penetrate the barrier of the stone slab.

"Third Captain, do you see if this will happen......" Captain Lai told everything he had seen before, and even the news that Jiang Huo had left the mausoleum using a teleportation talisman was not hidden.

"No way, when I came in, I already saw the teleportation talisman attached to the stone pillar, and there was no sign of using it."

The old man directly denied Captain Lai's idea, he believed that Jiang Huo did not use the teleportation talisman to leave the mausoleum at all, but found the secret passage in the palace and entered the next place.

"Okay, don't stand here stupidly, let's split up and start exploring, there must be a secret passage in this palace!"

After the old man urged Captain Lai a few times, his figure flashed, and he came to the other side of the palace, stepping on strange steps with his feet, testing every stone slab under his feet. The same is true for Captain Lai, who can only use this stupid method to find the hidden mechanism in the palace.

…………

Inside the dark tunnel.

Jiang Huo, who had completely discharged the toxins from her body, slowly opened her eyes, and a strong smell of mutton emanated from her body, and the beads of sweat all over her body seemed to be goat's milk mixed with water, and there was an inexplicable sticky feeling.

Jiang Huo's eyebrows furrowed, and the aura in his body suddenly shook, sweeping away all the odors attached to his body.

"This damn smell almost got planted here." Jiang Huo muttered to himself.

If she hadn't suddenly become interested in the oil lamps on both sides, I'm afraid she wouldn't have been able to smell this inexplicable smell. If it weren't for this sudden discovery, Jiang Huo believed that he would definitely fall to the ground and fall into crisis soon after he continued to walk.

"This smell alone can make me faint, and the rest of the road will definitely be more dangerous!"

Jiang Huo pursed her lips, she had completely held her breath, and the more than five million pores on Zhou's body were all blocked by aura. The incident just now had already aroused Jiang Huo's alarm, and she didn't want to fall in the same place twice in a row. After making sure that he would not be disturbed by this inexplicable smell, Jiang Huo took a step and continued to move forward, walking in the flickering candlelight passage.

After walking more than a dozen steps, Jiang Huo suddenly found that there was no end in sight to the distance in front of him.

When I walked for a long time, it was as if I was spinning in the same place, not moving forward at all.

Why did Jiang Huo make such a judgment?

That's because she saw a stain on the three steps in front of her.

Stains that smell of sheep's flesh.

This is the trace left by Jiang Huo when he expelled the toxins from his body before!

Jiang Huo can be sure that he is absolutely not mistaken!

This is where she's been before!

Ghost hitting the wall?

Jiang Huo immediately remembered this word!

However, the next moment, Jiang Huo denied his idea!

It's definitely not going to be a ghost hitting the wall!

Because around here, there is no ghost aura at all, and there is no trace of the appearance of fierce spirits and evil spirits!

After rejecting this idea, Jiang Huo immediately raised his right hand, bent his three fingers, stretched out his index finger and middle finger together, and the milky white aura surrounded his fingertips, shooting towards the stone slab under his feet. The faint sound was clearly captured by Jiang Huo, and a two-finger-sized pit appeared on the cyan stone slab, which was infused with a rich aura.

After doing all this, Jiang Huo continued to move forward, and every time she passed by two oil lamps, she would do the same, leaving her mark on the ground. After walking for about half a cup of tea, the corners of Jiang Huo's mouth finally hooked up a graceful arc.

In front of Jiang Huo, there was a fork in the road, the left side was pitch black, and the right side was a faint flickering light.

"Is it this kind of trick?" Jiang Huo closed her eyes, and in her mind, the imprints left behind were like a lighthouse in the night, guiding Jiang Huo to the way forward.

It turned out that when designing the secret passage, the craftsmen had already taken into account the situation of outsiders entering the tomb.

These stone steps are all curved inward, each stone step has a fixed curved arc, coupled with the burning dim candle flame, it is easy for people walking in the dark passage to have blind spots. Coupled with the strange scent, this dim tunnel alone can leave many people who want to peek into the secrets of the mausoleum.

If Jiang Huo hadn't found out that she had been poisoned, and after expelling the toxins from her body, she had left obvious marks on the ground, I'm afraid she would have to walk forward for a long time before she could discover the abnormality of this dark passage.

"Is this a blessing in disguise?"

Jiang Huo shrugged his shoulders, turned around with a smile on his face, and slammed towards the dark wall.

The expected pain did not appear, the bluestone slab laid under his feet gave Jiang Huo a great sense of security, and there was no candle flame to guide the way in the next part of the journey, Jiang Huo could only rely on the blue flames around him, and he could tentatively march forward.

Perhaps it was because the craftsmen who designed these mechanisms were very confident that no one would be able to pass through the palace mechanisms and the secret tunnels in a row. Therefore, until Jiang Huo walked to the tomb, he did not encounter any other traps.

Looking at the coffin placed in front of him, Jiang Huo stopped. [.]
