Chapter 322: The Forbidden Land of the Gelao Clan
We used our dippers to climb up to a cave in the cliff face; As far as the eye can see, the cave is indeed extended in all directions, and there are coffins placed at intervals, giving people the feeling of walking into a cemetery!
And looking at the appearance of the coffin, it was probably put up in recent decades, and it was not a valuable thing, so we didn't stay too long, let alone open the coffin to see, after all, it was the right thing to find the bronze branch quickly!
It's just that the person on the phone didn't provide us with any more useful information, only told us that the Bronze Branch was hidden in the forbidden land of the Gelao Ancient Clan, so the next step was to find the Bronze Branch by ourselves!
Because the bronze branches found before were generally found in the tombs, this time we are going to find the tombs where the ancestors of the ancient tribe are buried!
According to Gao Jing's technique of smelling the wind and looking at qi, plus some of the feng shui secret techniques I have learned, and then combining the layout of the hanging coffin burial in front of me in all directions, if the place we are looking for is a big tomb, it should generally be at the top of the entire lonely peak or underground! But at this time, we have reached the middle of the mountain wall with the help of the probe, so we simply decided to look up first and see if there will be any finds?
Although the belly of the mountain extends in all directions, the layout of each floor is similar, and there is an upward step left between each floor, so we found it quickly!
It's just that after climbing a few floors, I suddenly found a pattern, that is, the higher we go, the newer the coffins placed in the cave we found, and I suddenly felt that if I look at this rule, the older people should be buried underneath.

Therefore, we simply did not go any further, but hurried all the way down from the belly of this mountain in all directions, desperately trying to find the deepest tomb.
I don't know how long we walked, but when we estimated that the terrain was almost level with the ground, we followed the trend of the road in the middle of the mountain and inexplicably went around to the other side of the lonely peak, and we also saw the light from outside from another dark passage!
Moreover, this place is not far from the mouth of the cave, and you can faintly hear someone talking at the mouth of the cave! None of that matters, though, is that we've reached the ground and seem to have found the right entrance to the Gelao Ancient Forbidden Lands.
Obviously, if this is not the forbidden place we are looking for, who will send someone to guard the entrance of the cave? Since there are guards, it means that the place we are looking for is here, or this place is not far from us!
It's just that when I saw the light outside and heard the voice of talking, a question suddenly popped up in my head! Since this is the entrance to the forbidden land, the people of the ancient clan should know that the hanging coffin cave behind this lonely peak can be entered! But why did they only send people to guard the front door, but not the backyard? After all, when we came up from behind the lonely peak, we didn't even see a human shadow!
Could it be that there is someone behind the lonely peak that we didn't find? Or did we just happen to be in time for the gatekeeper to go? Or maybe the people of the Gelao tribe aren't afraid of us coming in at all? Is there anything else waiting for us in this cave?
For a while, I thought of many possibilities, but I couldn't be sure of each of them, but I couldn't deny them. So in the end, for the sake of insurance, I couldn't help but remind Hu Yifei and Gao Jing to be cautious, don't capsize in this gutter!
After seeing the two of them nodding, I took the time to look around again, and realized that the terrain we are in now is a bit complicated!
After following the guarded passage that penetrated the light, until we got to where we were, the corridor was divided into two! One was straight inside, the other was where we were now, and when we came around the back of the mountain, it happened to be in the right road.
Obviously, the road began to fork after this point, forming a cross shape! On our left is where the front exit of Gufeng is located, because someone is outside, so it is impossible to walk; Behind is the road we walked, so there was no need to go back. In this case, there are only two ways we can go, one is to go straight forward, and the other is to turn right!
Although it was a headache to do this kind of selective problem, it was fortunate that it didn't bother us!
After Hu Yifei's investigation, we found that there were a lot of footprints in the corridor in front of us, and judging from the clarity of the footprints, many of them were in the last few days, so we speculated that the road in front of us should be often in and out; But the corridor on the right is different, it is covered with a thick layer of dust, and it looks like no one has been in it for a long time!
The place where the ancestors are buried, according to the normal situation, there should generally be no people in and out, after all, the living do not disturb the spirits, and the dead do not startle the living! Although we are not very clear about the funeral customs of the ancient Gelao people, we still focus on the right side of the road.
After basically determining the route of travel, we didn't delay too much and went directly into the corridor on the right! And to our surprise, we didn't have to walk long before we saw a staircase leading to the ground in front of us! There are steps leading to the underground, which means that everything is changing, and the ancestors of the Gelao ancient clan are very likely to be below!
The stairs are made of stone, so you can't see all the way down, but they look very deep! But just as we were about to continue walking, there was a sudden pleasant sound of a flute in our ears!
"Did you hear the flute?" I thought I was hallucinating, and hurriedly shook my head a few times to sober myself up; But in fact, the sound of the flute that came into the ears did not disappear, but became clearer and clearer! In order to make sure that the voice I heard was real, I hurriedly asked Hu Yifei and Gao Jing around me!
"Did you hear that, too? I thought it was a hallucination! Gao Jing saw me asking, and immediately said in surprise.
"I heard it too!" Hu Yifei saw that Gao Jing and I both looked at him, and nodded in the affirmative.
"What's going on?"
In such a scene, there was a sudden flute sound, and no matter who it was, it would be startled by the coldness!
I thought the sound was coming from outside the cave, but when I got back to the fork in the road and listened, I realized that it wasn't coming from outside; But strangely enough, you can't tell where the sound is coming from. Because the sound reverberates so loudly, it's obvious that it's somewhere in the middle of the mountain? It's just that after it reaches our ears, we can't tell what the location is.
