Chapter 56: The Mystery of the Valley of the Poison King
Taking her hand, Yin Mingtai walked outside the room.
Far away in Jingyuan, Prince Yin didn't know that Yin Mingtai had successfully abducted his daughter, and after receiving Yin Jiuyue's letter, Yin Zhu had been shocked by the news that Yin Mingtai was still alive.
Yin Yun held the white fungus soup boiled for Yin Zhu, and as soon as he entered the door, he saw Yin Zhu's smiling face and asked, "What good thing happened, smiling so happily." ”
"Mingtai is still alive. Can I not be happy? ”
After breakfast, Yin Jiuyue was going to go to the Valley of the Poison King to meet the gambling king.
Wang Chunyang was also preparing to leave the capital, and he stayed in the capital for a few more days, and he had already collected a lot of medicine from the poison king, so the old man must have been distressed
Knowing Yin Jiuyue's plan, Wang Chunyang was ready to go to the Valley of the Poison King with Yin Jiuyue, and say goodbye to the old guy by the way.
After packing up, it's another threesome and set off.
This time, according to the last road, without alarming the protective snake of the Poison King Valley, he entered the valley, Yin Jiuyue looked at the surroundings that had barely changed, and the empty valley did not make a sound, and the silence made people feel eerie and terrifying.
Yin Jiuyue and Yin Mingtai were both equally keen, glanced at each other, and cautiously walked into the depths of the valley, seeking the trace of the gambling king.
"Old man."
Wang Chunyang also didn't see the shadow of the poison king, and began to shout loudly in the valley in confusion.
But it only alarmed the birds in the woods, and the echoes from the valley, and there was no response.
Walking into the house, seeing that there was no one on the bed, Yin Jiuyue saw that the back door was hidden, and suddenly remembered how nervous the drug king was the last time he opened this door.
Yin Mingtai also found it, bowing slightly.
Wang Chunyang was still "pulling weeds" outside, not knowing that Yin Jiuyue and Yin Mingtai were preparing to enter the place where the Poison King deliberately concealed.
Carefully pushing open the door, Yin Jiuyue carefully crossed the bridge made of Nanzhu and came to the dark cave.
The silence inside was terrifying, Yin Mingtai looked at the situation inside the cave, there were still bare rocks and soil all around, it seemed that this cave should just be a rough place to dig a pass.
But in this deep mountain, there are few people, why do you waste time and effort to dig a hole out?
Yin Jiuyue began to go deeper into the cave, and when she turned a corner, she saw that the originally dark cave began to have a candle flame beating.
With some light, Yin Jiuyue was finally able to see the situation inside.
I only saw that many palm-wide caves had been dug out of the cave wall, and the depth inside was not clear, but the door of the cave was blocked by a piece of gauze, Yin Jiuyue stopped, took down the candle on the cave wall and shone it at the entrance of the cave.
The light suddenly appeared, and the things in the cave suddenly appeared, and the sound of "hiss" suddenly startled Yin Jiuyue.
Yin Jiuyue patted her chest and let out a long breath.
"Ah Yue."
Yin Mingtai was taken aback when he saw Yin Jiuyue, a little worried, and bent down to take a closer look at what was inside.
Taking the candle in Yin Jiuyue's hand, Yin Mingtai looked at the entrance of the cave again, and found that the thing that scared Yin Jiuyue just now turned out to be a snake.
The snake's body intersected with white and silver, and its sinuous crawling on the cave wall was ready to attack again, fortunately there was this layer of gauze as a block, otherwise Yin Jiuyue would probably have been bitten by this thing just now.
"It's a krait."
Yin Jiuyue also saw it clearly and said.
But I wondered in my heart, how could the poison king think of raising such a poisonous snake in a cave, if he accidentally released it, the consequences would be unimaginable.
Next, Yin Jiuyue's pace continued to move forward a lot slower, Yin Jiuyue looked at the dense holes around her, thinking that there should be snakes in here, if one accidentally released them all, his own life may be explained here.
Continuing to go deeper, the light in the cave became less and less, and Yin Jiuyue and Yin Mingtai had already come to the end of the cave.
How can it be?
Yin Jiuyue secretly said in her heart, this cave is a place to feed snakes, how could the poison king be so nervous at the beginning, for fear of going in.
"Mingtai, let's see if there are any mechanisms around here."
Yin Jiuyue whispered.
Yin Mingtai bowed slightly behind Yin Jiuyue, stepped forward, and looked at the wall in front of him.
Looking at the corner of the wall, there was still a little white powder, Yin Mingtai guessed that this wall must be moving, controlled by a mechanism, as long as you find this mechanism, you can know what secrets are hidden in it.
"Mingtai, look."
Yin Jiuyue's voice full of surprise sounded, and Yin Mingtai immediately looked back, and saw Yin Jiuyue pointing to a lamp.
Walking forward, Yin Mingtai found that the wooden base of this candle was exceptionally smooth, and it was often touched by people to glow with this oil.
"Yue'er, you step back, in case of danger, you get out quickly."
Yin Jiuyue obediently took a step back, and saw Yin Mingtai twist the lamp holder, and the wall automatically slid up.
It seems that he guessed correctly, Yin Mingtai is dark, and this door is really movable.
Standing at the door, Yin Jiuyue hesitated a little, looking at the scene in front of her, it was much brighter than this cave, and the temperature inside was much better than the temperature outside.
I only felt a gust of wind blowing, and Yin Mingtai saw Yin Jiuyue's body trembling slightly.
immediately hugged Yin Jiuyue over and leaned close to him, so that Yin Jiuyue could feel his heat and no longer feel cold.
"Yue'er?"
Yin Mingtai asked suspiciously, looked down at Yin Jiuyue, and saw that she was starting to be stunned, not knowing what she was thinking.
Hearing Yin Mingtai's puzzled voice, Yin Jiuyue finally woke up from deep thought, frowned at Yin Mingtai and said, "Mingtai, do you know about the treasures of the previous dynasty?" ”
Treasures of the previous dynasty?
Yin Mingtai heard about it, and only said that when the previous dynasty fell, there was a person who transported all the treasures in the palace to an unknown place and hid them as the capital for the revenge of his descendants.
I only know that the treasure is very attractive, and many people in the rivers and lakes were looking for this treasure at that time, but basically no one has found it.
Later, as time went by, Yin Mingtai rarely heard about this treasure, and he could know that the things about this treasure were all things that he accidentally heard from people on the rivers and lakes when he was a child, and he didn't take them seriously when he was young, this time when he heard Yin Jiuyue's words, Yin Mingtai was a little positive, could it be that what those people said was true?
But is what you have in front of you the treasure of the previous dynasty?
If so, how did you get so far from the capital? Still in the Valley of the Poison King.
Just when Yin Mingtai was still confused, Yin Jiuyue had already walked in, the candle in his hand had already burned half, and the candle liquid was about to overflow from the cup.
But Yin Jiuyue didn't have time to look at the candle's situation.
When I walked in, I found that there was a hole in it.
The space inside is very large, and it can be seen that it has been carved out by man, because there are obvious traces of shovels on the mountain wall.
"Mingtai, come and see."
Yin Mingtai, who was about to come in, heard Yin Jiuyue suddenly call his name, and immediately walked over and saw the golden light shining in the ground.
"What is this?"
Yin Mingtai was a little blinded by the dazzling golden light, and looked at the piles of large wooden boxes around him, and found that even this wooden box was made of red sandalwood with its gold.
This is a priceless treasure in the market, and as large a piece of wood can be exchanged for as much gold.
Yin Mingtai somewhat believed in those rumors, and it was very likely that the treasures of the previous dynasty were true.
Seeing Yin Jiuyue, he opened a box, and the treasures in it were already a little scary, so many boxes were placed here, Yin Mingtai thought to himself, even if the property of the richest man in the country was placed here, it would be much inferior.
opened several boxes one after another, Yin Jiuyue looked at the things inside, as the county lord of a country, the treasures he had seen could be said to be countless, but when he saw these treasures from the previous dynasty, his eyes were also amazing.
I didn't expect this thing to be in the Valley of the Poison King, Yin Jiuyue couldn't figure it out.
Looking around, Yin Jiuyue suddenly thought that they had been coming in for a while, and if they didn't go out, they would be suspected.
Pressed Yin Mingtai's hand to open the box, and said, "Mingtai, let's go out quickly." ”
"Since you've come in, why don't you finish reading it, it's the old man, the county lord here, don't you look at it, so anxious to go out."
The voice of the Poison King suddenly sounded in the cave, but the light in the cave was too dim for Yin Jiuyue to see where the Poison King was.
