The cemetery chief worker said that he was originally a small kitchen boy in the palace, and he was sent here to guard the cemetery and farm a year ago because he broke the dishes. When he was in the palace, he often heard the elders say that there were many gold and silver treasures buried in this tomb, and he thought of robbing the tomb.

But this cemetery was very tightly guarded, and he didn't have a chance to do it, and he was too timid to do it with others. It's just that after he moved the idea of robbing the tomb, he was unwilling to give up, and often walked around the sealed mound, looking at the tomb door in a daze.

About ten days ago, in the evening, when the guards were on duty, he ran to the tomb door to touch it. Who would have thought that a few small boxes made of bamboo strips were picked up in the corner under the stone carvings of the tomb door. Although it is woven by bamboo strips, it is as fine as silk, the warp and weft are uniform, and it is very delicate.

He took these small boxes back to the house, and before the long-term worker in the same room had returned, he lit the oil lamp and looked at the box carefully. After seeing it clearly, I realized that there were words at the bottom of the box, which were written with fragrant ash and water as ink.

This long-term worker also learned some words from Mr. Bookkeeper, and recognized that it was written on it as "Saving people from the East Cake Messenger Tomb", which was a sentence that he had been lining up for a long time to get a little smooth.

He used to be a servant in the palace, and he knew that the old princess loved to eat the osmanthus cake of Liu Ji Pastry Shop on Taixing Chengdong Street, and he also remembered that this small box was used for pastries. "East cake message" must be the meaning of going to the pastry shop to deliver the message, but he can't figure it out, what does "tomb save people" mean?

He knew about the old princess's disappearance after dismissing her slaves, and finally guessed that she had gone to the tomb. But how could she go to the tomb, it was the old prince who asked her to go down to accompany him? He couldn't think of a reason, but let his various fantasies scare him into not eating well and sleeping well.

Two days later, he gritted his teeth and decided to go to Liu Kee's pastry shop on East Street. Compared to the bizarre and unknowable things of the "tomb", the pastry shop on the street gave him the courage to try it, and he wanted to know what would happen.

When he went to the pastry shop, the boss greeted him warmly and asked him what he wanted to buy, and he took out a small box of bamboo strips. The boss didn't behave abnormally, and he also made fun of him for being greedy and cheap, and he dared to pick up the things in the Shenjun Palace, and now they are all royal things......

He caught a glimpse of the handwriting on the box of illegible incense ash, which had become completely illegible from the rubbing. Looking at this boss again, he doesn't know anything about "saving people from the tomb", that is, ordinary small businessmen. He panicked instantly, if he said what he meant, not only would the boss not believe him, but he might also say that he had stolen the things of the palace and arrested him as a thief.

He threw away the locket and left the city in a panic, and he was worried for the past few days. For a moment he thought that someone was deliberately manipulating him; For a while, he thought that he had bad intentions and was punished by the ghost of the old prince; After a while, I guessed if the pastry shop owner didn't believe him and deliberately didn't show it......

After finishing speaking, he kept kowtowing to Cheng Haofeng, and repeatedly swore that everything he said was true.

Cheng Haofeng didn't say whether he believed it or not, but just broke the rope that bound his hands and feet with his sword, and told him to stay in this house and not run around.

Then, Cheng Haofeng flew towards the tomb door quickly. Hu Xianxian followed, although he didn't give her an analysis of the various reasons for this matter, she could also guess a rough idea.

After Bian Caiban took the old princess hostage to the cemetery, it was the old princess herself or someone loyal to her who hurriedly wrote those words with the ashes in the incense burner with the pastry box she carried with her.

They should have known in advance that they would go to the bottom of the tomb, and bringing the osmanthus cake that the old princess liked to eat when carrying dry food would not arouse suspicion. Moreover, the small box is lightweight, even if it does not contain osmanthus cake, it is also suitable for other pastries.

The purpose of leaving the words in this small box is to prove the identity of the old princess, not to let the pastry shop owner save people, but the pastry shop owner will believe that the old princess is in trouble when he sees the small box and handwriting, and will inevitably go to Cen Zaidao and they will bring people to rescue.

This was originally a very careful arrangement, because if you write a note at random and leave it, it may be blown away by the wind, and no one will believe it because you can't prove the identity of the old princess. Unfortunately, no matter how careful the arrangement is, there will still be omissions.

The location of the lost locket is the angle under the carving of the tomb door, and the patrolling guards will not shake in front of the tomb door at all in order to respect the deceased old prince.

The long-term worker, who didn't know etiquette, received a distress message, but he himself stupidly didn't understand the trick and focused on the pastry shop owner. Even so, there is still a chance to clear up the suspicion earlier, as long as he directly explains the origin of the matter to the pastry shop owner, he can still send a message to Cen Zaidao, and let Cheng Haofeng know earlier. Unfortunately, this long-term worker was timid and suspicious, and missed the opportunity to be a hero of the Savior.

Outside the tomb gate in an instant, Hu Xianxian eagerly asked the only question: "There are so many people guarding the tomb here, how can no one find out that the old princess has entered the bottom of the tomb?" ”

Cheng Haofeng did not answer, but quickly clicked on the inscription on the lintel of the tomb door with his left hand. With a soft "shudder", the tomb door opened upwards, and he flashed in, and she entered.

After they entered, Cheng Haofeng flashed a ray of spiritual power with his backhand, and the tomb door fell.

The tomb was dark, but it had no effect on them who could see at night. This tomb on the flat ground is full of clothes and ornaments used by the old prince, which does not look like it is in the tomb, but like a storage room for old things.

Hu Xianxian glanced at this two-zhang square mortar mixed stone tomb, and felt strange, this is obviously not compliant.

Cheng Haofeng didn't stop his eyes in this room at all, he quickly moved to the right wall and clicked on the mechanism. The mechanism opened, the wall opened the secret door, he hurried in, and she hurried to follow.

After entering, Hu Xianxian immediately understood that the outer tomb was later expanded and newly built. Because there was a large hole in the tomb door that appeared in front of her, and there were scorched black marks around the edges, which was the tomb door that she had seen bombed before.

Because the burial chamber was enlarged outside the original tomb, there were passages on both sides of the tomb leading to other places. Cheng Haofeng did not enter the tomb, but walked quickly along the left corridor.

When Hu Xianxian walked forward with him, he noticed that there should be a formation to isolate the spiritual energy, although it could not be 100% isolated from the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, but those who cultivated below the earth immortal should have no spiritual power after entering here. She won't be able to lose all her spiritual power, but she can only adjust forty percent.

Hu Xianxian estimated that when they were about ten zhang above the ground, a large earth hole appeared in front of them, and there were two small holes on both sides of the big hole.

Cheng Haofeng pointed to the small hole on the left and said, "They came in from here." ”

"They know that there is a fork in the bottom of the tomb leading to other places, and they know how to open the tomb door, so they know something about this tomb, but you don't want to reveal this to people you don't trust? They kidnapped the old princess here, it wouldn't be a temporary intention, could it be that Bian had a deeper purpose in recruiting them? ”

When Hu Xianxian was saying these questions, Cheng Haofeng didn't rush forward anymore, he stared at the three holes and thought hard. She didn't speak again, it seemed that the situation at the bottom of the tomb was much more than he expected, and he needed to calmly sort out the clues.

When the two were silent, the sparks lit up, and dozens of sharp arrows came out of the hole on the left.

Because the arrows are coated with white phosphorus, the arrows are sparked. Ordinary people suddenly see a fire in the dark, must not have time to react, even if the skill is extremely fast, due to the sudden stabbing of the eyes to reduce the strain, the arrow is inevitable.

They could have night vision, and the sudden bright light had little effect on the eyes. Cheng Hao did not avoid the wind, and used his mind to resist the ink ice sword, and the sword turned into a crystal ice shield to block the rain of arrows with a circle.

Hu Xianxian stood in place and never moved, she knew that there was no need to dodge and resist, and believed that he could easily resolve this small crisis. She looked at the scene with great interest, and the sparkling arrow shot at the ice shield, because it was a spark of white phosphorus, so it would rub and burst into flames before touching the shield and extinguishing it.

The firelight passed through the ice, and the ice shield was reflected in a multicolored halo. If you ignore the situation under the tomb at this time, such a scene is like fireworks blooming in the crystal palace, magnificent and wonderful.

The rain of arrows stopped, Cheng Haofeng waved his hand to disperse the ice shield, and walked cautiously and steadily towards the left fork. His expression was indifferent and he couldn't see too much emotion, but Hu Xianxian intuitively felt that his heart was full of anger.

This fork in the tunnel is much cramped than the previous road, only allowing one person to enter and exit, Hu Xianxian can barely walk upright, Cheng Haofeng can only bury his head and walk. Moreover, this cave is an earthen cave, unlike the previous Yongdao with stone slabs and blue brick vaults.

While Hu Xianxian followed his footsteps, he took a cursory look around the cave wall and saw that there were many irregular scratches on the wall. She secretly guessed that the hole was not dug by man, but by some kind of beast.

When she wanted to look closely at the traces to determine which beast left it, Cheng Haofeng flew up sideways, and she was stunned. Suddenly, I heard the sound of gold and iron crashing in front of me, followed by a muffled scream.

It is indeed a "muffled scream" rather than a "terrible scream", because the voice is still in the mouthpiece and is not fully screamed before the vocalization is interrupted.

Even though Hu Xianxian was a master of art and bold, she could also hear the fear, she hurried to chase after her, and when she approached Cheng Haofeng, she only felt that he was full of murderous intent.

Seeing that he was safe and sound, she turned her head to look at the enemy lying on the ground of the cave. It is said that it is an "enemy", but in fact, there is no one, they are all voles, mole crickets, rabbits and the like. These dead beasts are many times larger than what is commonly seen, and their faces have some human features, which are supposed to be demons but not yet demons.

There were swords, guns, swords and halberds scattered around the corpses, most of which were broken. Most of them are dead and blind, and there is still fear and unwillingness in their eyes.

The bloody qi mixed with the earthy qi rushed into the nostrils, which was disgusting, and Hu Xianxian frowned and wanted to leave here.

However, Cheng Haofeng lunged forward with his sword, vigilantly scanning the surroundings with the corner of his eye, and the whole person was ready to go, with no intention of leaving.

Hu Xianxian didn't feel any danger, but he didn't ask him. The fact that he was rarely nervous meant that the danger was unusually terrible and could not disturb him. When the situation is evenly matched, you must react sharply enough, and it will be difficult to recover the situation if you miss the opportunity.

After about a stick of incense, the corpses gradually smelled of rottenness, and the smell in the earth cave became even more unpleasant. Hu Xianxian frowned and covered her nose, she didn't dare to use her spiritual power to bounce open the body protection shield, and the fluctuation of her breath would also affect Cheng Haofeng's perception.

After a long time - but maybe not soon, it was just too uncomfortable to have time, just when Hu Xianxian was about to be stunned by the stench, the cave wall in front of Cheng Haofeng suddenly collapsed!

The soil is falling chaotically, the yellow dust is blowing in the face, and the three figures are besieging Cheng Haofeng, using the skills of lore!
