Chapter 225: Discovering the Secret Passage
The tremors of the ground above were getting stronger and stronger, and the temperature in the burial chamber was rising, and everyone's physical strength was rapidly depleted.
"How so, how can I not find that door?" Cheng Lingsu was hugged by Gong Yuling and muttered in his mouth.
Gong Yuling looked at her self-blame, and her heart ached slightly, but she was also as thoughtless as a headless fly.
There were no other doors in the main chamber except for the four chambers, and even if they were looking for a secret door, they had never noticed the existence of a mechanism that could open the secret door.
They all carefully turned over the things here......
There was another tremor, different from the previous ones, this time the tremor was extremely strong, and after the tremor, it was accompanied by a dull "boom" sound.
Hearing this voice, everyone's hearts cooled.
It's over, the door is blown down.
Cheng Yuan is coming.
"Hey! ......"
Suddenly, the voice of the arbor came from the corner, and everyone heard the voice, but there was no one to be seen.
"Arbor?" Su Qingling frowned and whispered.
Qiao Mu got up from the ground and patted his dirty clothes, poked his head out of the door, and hooked his hand at everyone: "I'm fine, come and see what I found." ”
Why don't you use the past to see, isn't this the secret path they have been looking for for a long time.
"It's not an ordinary person after all, so you should try your luck." Gong Yuling teased and fell silent.
I found the secret passage, but no one could laugh.
Cheng Yuan was about to come down, and they found the secret path at this time, but it was like making a wedding dress for others.
"I don't want to, this door was blown up by the explosives on it." Qiao Mu pointed to his head, and now he was still dripping with slag.
As far as the eye could see, the six people in the tomb were all embarrassed.
"What now?" Guan Wenfei turned to look at Cheng Lingsu.
"If we break in like this, Cheng Yuan will definitely find out about this door, and if we don't go in, Cheng Yuan will get rid of us, get the map and enter safely." Guan Yasheng analyzed the situation before Cheng Lingsu spoke.
What choice do they have left, and now they can only advance, not retreat.
"Okay, then go in." Guan Wenfei nodded, and walked side by side with Qiao Mu again.
The two of them had just taken two steps, and soon retreated with a blank face.
"What's wrong?" Sekiya was puzzled.
The two shook their heads, only pointed to the door, and motioned for everyone to come over and have a look.
In the secret room that I finally found, there are three passages, but there is only one road here on the map.
"This ......" Sekiya didn't know what to do for a while, "why don't we give it a try in all three?" There should always be one right. ”
After speaking, he raised his eyes and looked at the others, wondering their opinions.
It's been a while since the door above was blown up.
Cheng Lingsu shook his head slowly: "No, we don't have time to try like this, in case we finish trying out and Cheng Yuan is waiting here, we will not only be wiped out, but also explore the way for him, and the gains outweigh the losses." ”
"So what else can we do?" Qiao Mu was a little anxious.
"Let's split up, now let's divide into groups." Cheng Lingsu mastered the duties of the military advisor again and began to group them in pairs.
Without waiting for her to speak, Gong Yuling suddenly held her hand and said without refusal: "I'm with you." ”
Cheng Lingsu was stunned for a moment, and then laughed.
That's what she thought, too.
"Qiao Mu and Guan Wenfei should not be in a group, you each take Guan Yasheng and Su Lime with you."
Needless to say, Qiao Mu also wants to take Su Lime with him.
Then Guan Yasheng and Guan Wenfei are left to go together.
"Don't worry, my brother will protect you." Guan Wenfei looked at Guan Yasheng with lowered eyes and assured in a deep voice.
Guan Yasheng looked in the direction of the other four people, looking at them, and Gu Xingpei's shadow kept appearing in his mind.
If he's ......
"Qiao Mu, you show the way." The six of them stood at the entrance of the dark passage, and Cheng Lingsu looked at Qiao Mu.
Qiao Mu was quiet for a while, raised his finger and pointed a finger, and wanted to take Su Qingling in after pointing it, but was stopped by Cheng Lingsu halfway.
Qiao Mu raised his eyebrows in confusion.
"Let Sekiya go this way." Cheng Lingsu looked like he had thought it through.
Everyone listened to her deployment all the way, and Qiao Mu boasted that his sixth sense was sensitive, so he didn't say anything, and obediently gave up the chosen path to Guan Yasheng.
The six of them divided the passage to enter, and Cheng Lingsu let them each look at the map again, and memorized the map in their hearts, so that everyone could rest assured that they walked into each other's passages.
At first, the three passages could still hear each other's voices, and the further back they went, the quieter the sound became, until it disappeared completely.
"I can't get in touch with them." Guan Yasheng was protected by Guan Wenfei behind him, and his tone was a little worried
Guan Wenfei didn't speak, and walked forward with her.
At the same time, a regular sound of footsteps sounded in the main burial chamber.
Cheng Yuan's figure appeared in the main burial chamber, followed by Gu Xingpei.
"This is it, Gu Xingpei, go find the map for me." Cheng Yuan gave a leisurely order, and after finishing speaking, he reacted again, and corrected, "No, I arrested those people, they must have already obtained the map." ”
After speaking, he sat down on a section of the main tomb and watched Gu Xingpei looking for someone in the tomb.
For a long time, Gu Xingpei had nothing
obtained, and returned to Cheng Yuan's side with an expressionless face.
"I didn't see them going up the tunnels all the way." Cheng Yuan said sadly, "Could it be that there is a second tunnel to leave?" ”
As he spoke, Cheng Yuan suddenly raised his hand and waved over the objects placed next to him.
The sound of wood falling to the ground was particularly abrupt in the silence of the tomb.
Cheng Yuan suddenly lowered his eyes, staring thoughtfully at the wooden box on the ground that had been placed there for some time.
This wooden box looks simple, but he knows that this wood is invaluable, what will be placed in such a valuable box?
Cheng Yuan showed a knowing smile, bent down to pick up the box on the ground, and ordered in a deep voice: "Find me, these people must still be in the tomb, they got the map." ”
After saying that, he also searched for it in the tomb.
When he walked to a corner, Cheng Yuan suddenly put his feet full, looked at the ground there, and raised his eyebrows slightly.
It's true that he put explosives just now, but how can there be so many rockfalls here than elsewhere? And also...... The color of this wall, did he really think he couldn't distinguish the small differences in color?
"Gu Xingpei." Cheng Yuan took two steps back, not wanting to get his hands dirty, "Come here and tear down this wall for me." ”
He wanted to see what kind of treasure was hidden behind this wall, so that those people could hide it so hard.
Hearing his command, Gu Xingpei quickly walked over and swung his bare hand at the wall without sparing any strength.
The hard walls of the chamber collapsed, revealing a lower tunnel.
Cheng Yuan walked inside, looked at the three dark paths in front of him, pondered slightly, and ordered: "You go this way, don't worry about killing people when you see it." ”
He pointed to the secret passage that Sekiya had just entered.
Gu Xingpei is just a killing machine now, and Cheng Yuan doesn't expect him to do more.
Gu Xingpei bowed his head and walked straight into the dark passage.
Cheng Yuan was silent for a few seconds, then turned around and walked into another dark passage.
"What's going on, do you remember the map? Which way should we go here? ”
There were three forks in the road in front of him, and Guan Wenfei's eyebrows tightened.
Hearing this, Sekiya turned to his side, raised his hand and grabbed his wrist, his fingertips glowing.
"Yayoi, what's wrong? Don't waste your strength on me, I'm just tired, and your abilities won't do much to me. Guan Wenfei saw that she was recovering her strength, and she regretted her irritability just now.
Guan Yasheng shook his head: "It's better than nothing." ”
After a while, a thin layer of sweat covered Guan Yasheng's forehead, slowly let go, turned his head to look at the three forks and recalled the map, and walked towards the rightmost intersection.
She had just faintly heard a voice, such as
If you guessed correctly, the door of the secret passage outside has been discovered by Cheng Yuan.
They don't have time to delay here.
In the other two dark passages, the two groups of people encountered the same fork as them, and each walked into the corresponding intersection from memory.
"Someone's coming."
Qiao Mu suddenly clenched Su Qinglime's hand, and led her to flash into the depths of the fork in the road, looking at the fork cautiously.
Cheng Yuan stopped at the fork in the road, his face pale.
Sure enough, it's inconvenient to do anything without a map.
Moreover, this dark road, after the fork, then forks, I don't know if this is the last intersection.
If not, Cheng Yuan has no patience to waste time on various forks in the road.
Seeing Cheng Yuan standing there, Su Qingling couldn't help but feel a little nervous.
Qiao Mu sensitively sensed her mood and made a quiet gesture, for fear of making some noise to attract Cheng Yuan in.
After all, neither of them is capable of fighting, and there is only one way to die against Shang Chengyuan.
The air stalled for a few seconds, and under their nervous gaze, Cheng Yuan raised his feet and walked into the leftmost fork in the road, far away from them.
Watching him enter, Qiao Mu began to hesitate.
According to the map, these forks will meet in one place, and if they are still in this dark passage, they are afraid that they will be caught off guard and face the abyss.
The person beside him suddenly clenched his hand hard, as if to give him confidence.
Glancing at the people around him, Qiao Mu took a deep breath and continued to march inward with a determined face.
In the last fork in the road, Cheng Lingsu and Gong Yuling held hands, but both of them pretended to be calm and looked at the road ahead, and neither dared to look into the other's eyes.
The map was still in Cheng Lingsu's hands, and Gong Yuling's heart was full of nervousness, and he was anxious to rush to the land of extreme yin, for fear that Cheng Yuan would hurt Cheng Lingsu for the map.
"Ahem......" Cheng Lingsu coughed lowly.
Their tunnel happened to be next to the one Cheng Yuan had chosen.
Cheng Yuan was very keen to catch this small movement, but because of the echoes of the layers of tunnels, he couldn't tell the specific location of this cough.
Like left, like right, or ...... In front of him.
Cheng Yuan hooked his lips coldly.
Cheng Lingsu, I won't let you go this time.
At the same time, Gu Xingpei walked in the dark passage, and a familiar light fragrance lingered on the tip of his nose, making him subconsciously want to find the fragrance to move forward.
