I was shocked, didn't that kid die? Thinking I was going to turn back and save him.

When the black bull saw me walking back, he shouted loudly in fright: "Old Su, you are crazy!" The bedpost is about to burn out! ”

The four calf-thick agate bedposts made a "pop" explosion, and in the lacquered coffin, tongues of fire were still stirring wantonly, and the scorching heat scorched my face.

"Come back soon!" Gu Yixin also shouted anxiously.

As I approached the flames, I said, "The kid isn't dead!" ”

"It's been more than 2,000 years, and even if you don't die, then you're not a fucking human!" The black bull roared and turned towards me.

Gao Mo was one step ahead, rushed to my side without saying a word, and dragged me out by the arm.

His palm was thick and powerful, and it hurt my arm for a while, and I had no room to resist.

In an instant, the four agate bedposts collapsed, and the shattered pillars smashed into the lacquered coffin that was engulfed in flames, bursting out countless sparks.

I quickly turned my head to dodge, but a few sparks still landed on the back of my hand and cheek, and I grinned hotly.

Gao Moli dragged me to the screen before letting go of his hand, his face showed a trace of warm anger, and he rarely criticized: "You shouldn't be like this!" There is nothing there. ”

I was stunned for a moment, and looked at the lacquered coffin again, where there were any babies, only the room reflected in the raging fire was blood-red.

Perhaps, because I was full of sympathy for the mother and son, I was dazzled just now? Immediately, I had a trace of fear in my heart: Fang Cai was really reckless, if Gao Mo didn't stop it in time, I was afraid that I would have been buried in the fire!

"You're a magic wand, get out of here! Otherwise, the little ghost in the coffin will really recognize you as a godfather! The Black Bull said as he escorted me out of the stone chamber.

We went straight to the stone chamber with the secret passage. Gu Yixin said worriedly: "That mysterious person won't seal the secret passage, right?" If that were the case, we would be trapped in the ancient building. ”

"Xiao Gu's reminder is right, we have to hurry up and take a look!" The black bull said, speeding up his pace and trotting at the front of the group.

Behind him, the fire was still burning wildly, and the agate barrier in the stone chamber was broken and collapsed by the fire.

I sensed in my heart that something was wrong: the lacquered coffin and the curtain alone were not enough to burn such a fire. Apparently, there was also an imperceptible flammable substance in the burial chamber, and this combustible material was probably hidden in the agate jade. Otherwise, those agate would not have been burned and shattered so easily when they encountered the flames.

I walked briskly and briefly talked about my worries with Gu Yixin.

Gu Yixin glanced up at the surrounding agate jade and said, "Agate is a kind of chalcedony mixed with opal and cryptocrystalline quartz, most of them are banded blocks, and the color is quite layered. However, in this ancient building where we are located, the agate that composes it wants to be pure, transparent in texture, and free of impurities, this excessive perfection is too abnormal! The beauty of jade is still flawed, let alone agate ore? So, I think the agate frame in this mine must have had some kind of special treatment and, as you said, some kind of combustible substance added to it. ”

I wondered, "However, it was impossible for humans more than 2,000 years ago to extract impurities from ores, and that required high refining technology. ”

Gu Yixin replied firmly: "More than two thousand years ago, Taoism was prevalent, and alchemy was all the rage. Among them, the raw materials such as cinnabar, lead and mercury used in alchemy are all extracted from ore, so alchemy is also considered to be the pioneer of modern chemistry. It can be seen that the refining technology mastered by ancient humans may be far beyond our imagination. I have seen a related report on a scientific impurities: a piece of agate playing stone was unearthed in the tomb built by the pre-Qin Daliang, and the archaeologists accidentally fell it into the fire pit when excavating, and accidentally found that the agate playing stone could burn on its own. ”

If, as Gu Yixin said, the agate and jade used to build this ancient building contain combustion-supporting ingredients such as wax, then if it continues to burn like this, the entire ancient building will sooner or later burn and collapse, and at that time, everything here will be destroyed in the fire.

When we understood the stakes, it was too late to put out the fire, and there was not a drop of water in this ancient building. At the moment, we can only quickly figure out the meaning of the words "Demon Mansion Hidden Coffin" left by Professor Kang, and then leave quickly.

The white smoke in the dark passage has dissipated, although the air is still filled with a choking spicy smell, but we can't care so much, the black cow took out a tent cloth the size of a board from the outer layer of the backpack, tore it into four pieces, and each of us made a simple mask, covered our mouths and noses, and crawled towards the dark passage.

The secret passage has not been sealed, nor has it been blown up, it seems that the mysterious person who followed Gu Yixin did not want to kill us.

After climbing for a while, the black bull who opened the way suddenly stopped and asked, "Master Su, the three forks have arrived, which direction shall we climb?" With that, he sat down on the ground in front of the fork.

Now there are three paths in front of us: one is the secret passage when we climb into the mine, one leads to the first floor of the ancient building, and one leads to the third floor.

I squeezed past Gu Yixin, illuminated the dark passage leading to the first floor with a spotlight, and found that there was a beam of light reflected back ten meters away, it seemed that it was a dead end. I don't know what the reason is, this secret passage is not dug to the first floor.

On the strip of cloth left by Professor Kang, the words "Demon Building Hidden Coffin" are written with bloodstains, and the word "Demon Building" must refer to the ancient building in front of us.

I said hello and turned around to crawl towards the dark passage leading to the third floor, when I suddenly felt a hard object in my pants pocket, and my thigh hurt.

I don't remember putting anything in my pocket, sitting on the floor and digging my hand into my trouser pocket, and when my fingers touched it, I was stunned: Well, this thing is very cool and smooth.

I took it out and looked at it under the spotlight, and was stunned: this was a palm-sized dark green jade tire. The jade fetus is a baby-shaped, curled up on all fours, its eyes slightly closed, the corners of its mouth slightly raised, and its face exudes serenity and pleasure, as if it is sleeping soundly in its mother's womb.

Hei Niu caught a glimpse of me taking out a piece of jade from his trouser pocket, and said with a smile: "What an old Su, I can't see that you also have the habit of holding sheep, the water head of this piece of jade is really fucking ......good" Hei Niu said, suddenly suppressed his laughter, and then said with a hint of horror: "Damn, this ...... Isn't this the child in the belly of the 'Goddess of Legs'? Didn't it get crushed by an arrow from me in the treasure cave! ”

Indeed, as the black bull said, what I am holding in my hand is the fetus in the womb of the "Mother God of the Knee", and the reason why I am so sure is because the fingers and toes of the fetus are depicted very clearly, and its left hand has six fingers, which is one more thumb than ordinary people.

However, that jade fetus and the knee-stroking mother goddess had already been shot by the black bull together, how could they appear intact in my trouser pocket now?

"Could it be the same object? However, you have such a big piece of jade in your pocket, you don't even notice it? Gu Yixin looked at me with strange eyes, she obviously suspected that this piece of jade was secretly hidden by me.

I cursed in my heart: stinky women are so suspicious. He tried his best to prove it: "Impossible, this jade tire has no traces of artificial carving and polishing, and it is natural." No matter how amazing nature is, no two things are the same. ”

Gao Moli glanced at the jade fetus from a distance, without the slightest surprise, as if in his opinion, this thing should have been mine.

I suddenly thought of the baby who was trembling in the flames and walking towards me, and said, "Could it be that the unborn child in the womb of the female corpse, whose ghost has turned into this jade fetus, wants to follow us out of this underground palace that has been sleeping for thousands of years?" ”

Other than that, there seems to be no other plausible explanation.

"Whatever it is, take it first! If you hesitate for a while, be careful that the ancient building burns down, and none of us can get out. The black bull was surprised and still a little excited, after all, Bai picked up a treasure, and he urged me to quickly put it in my satchel and move on.

After being reminded by the black bull, I remembered that we were still in the ancient building, and the fire on the second floor was still burning, and if we wanted to get out, we had to fight quickly.

We crawled diagonally upwards for a distance, and a round sealing stone appeared in front of us, this sealing stone was very similar to the sealing stone in the secret passage on the second floor, presumably pushing open the stone room on the third floor.

The black bull was about to push away the vermilion agate sealing stone, but the moment his hand touched the sealing door, he suddenly retracted, and when he looked under the searchlight, his palm was stained with sticky blood.

How can there be blood on the sealing stone? I don't know if Zhang Xuefeng and his party were injured before they entered the Rugu Building, or if they were injured in the ancient building and stayed behind when they fled in a hurry.

"Damn, that's bad luck!" The black bull wiped the blood from the palm of his hand against the cave wall.

I remembered what I had seen in the mine earlier, where Zhang Xuefeng, who was in the corridor on the third floor, shot hard at one room, and then hid in another room with the mercenaries. This third floor is even more weird.

The black bull also seemed to smell the impending crisis, and he took the big black eagle off his back, and took out two steel balls in succession, filling the crossbow hall.

"Let's go!" The black bull lowered his voice and shouted, reaching out to push away the vermilion agate sealing stone.

The black bull took the lead in rushing out of the dark passage, holding the big black eagle with both hands, looking around vigilantly, the beam of the tactical spotlight swept back and forth, the black bull was stunned for a moment, put the big black eagle away, and said suspiciously: "Here...... It doesn't seem to be a burial chamber! ”

I crawled out of the hole with my hands on my hands, and when I looked up, I saw that we were in the same room.

The four walls of the room are made of sandalwood, and the color is dark purple and gloomy. Two wooden hollow carved doors were open, and facing the door was a sandalwood table, on which was placed a wooden cage incense burner, and misty smoke was curling out. Next to the incense burner, there are four treasures of the study, only to see that there are still undried inks in the rectangular stone enamel box warm inkstone, and there are also bamboo slips that will be collected in the future.

The black bull grabbed the brush, dipped it in black ink, drew a big cross on the bamboo slip, and said with wide eyes: "The ink is not dry yet!" Could it be that there are people living here? ”

As soon as he finished speaking, there was a sound of silk and bamboo from behind the wooden wall facing the door.

The voice was ethereal, lingering in the ears, as if it had come from outside the sky.
