In addition to these things, there was nothing left in the entire lower palace, I followed the seventh master to the altar, the seventh master stretched out his hand, and got rid of the dust on those square things, and found that it was a portrait of a woman.

Looking closely, I found that these women were wearing phoenix crowns, dressed in gorgeous costumes, and smiling, which should be the portraits of the queens of the Southern Song Dynasty.

This Yashan Sea Palace was originally the Mausoleum of the Yellow Emperor, and it is very likely that when Zhao Gou first built it, he planned to make this place the mausoleum of the emperors of the Southern Song Dynasty, but in the end he also fell depressed, and this file may have changed its taste.

In any case, as an imperial tomb, it is normal for the queen and all the concubines to be buried here.

"Isn't there a coffin?" The pig's head didn't know when he came over and asked.

The seventh master took the flashlight and looked around, and shook his head: "It's estimated that there is no here, let's go out and take a look, it is estimated that it will come to an end soon." ”

There was no back door in the lower palace, so we walked around the inside, and after making sure there was nothing else, we turned around and came out through the main entrance.

"Smack-"

As soon as I went out, I stepped on the slimy ground, hurriedly looked down, and found that there was already a puddle of water stains on the ground, and looked in the direction of the upper palace with a flashlight, and found that the ground over there was full of reflections, and the sea water in the underground river had overflowed. However, it seems that the flow speed at this time is not very fast, and the flow of water is almost invisible.

"Let's go!" The seventh master glanced at the time and beckoned: "It's almost noon, if it goes well, we have to return to the ship before tonight!" ”

Everyone nodded, turned around and followed the Seventh Master out of the lower palace, standing on the north side of the lower palace, looking into the distance.

According to the normal setting, after going down to the palace, there should only be the sacrificial altar of heaven or the sacrificial altar of earth. The upper and lower palaces, where the coffins should have been placed, were empty, and nothing was found.

The Seventh Master groaned for a while, but didn't speak, and led us to the north along a path behind the lower palace.

My little heart is extremely nervous right now—it's been three or four days since I entered the Sea Palace, and now I know that there is also a water drifter, countless dead vines, and the sea water that is slowly pouring in now, all of which are tricky things. On the other hand, there were five of us, and I was bitten on the back by those drifters, and I couldn't move vigorously; The Seventh Master had been entangled in the dead man's vine for several hours, and now his body was extremely weak; The pig's head was slapped several times, coupled with old injuries, and now his face is pale, and he can't recover in a short time; Not to mention the Budai Monk, who is recognized as the strongest kung fu man, although he also killed a water drifter alone, but now he has also lost his left arm; The only one who has not been seriously injured is Liang Ruoyi.

If we continue like this, it is estimated that we will not be able to wait for us to leave with the Chixiao Sword, and we will die here first......

Of course, what I am most afraid of at the moment is that these incoming seawater may be able to lure those dead vines up in a short time!

In the darkness, there were only the footsteps of the five of us, and if you listened carefully, it was still a little funny: the Budai monk's footsteps were so light that he could hardly hear any sound; The pig's head was heavy, wounded, limping, and the footsteps were "pop-pop"; The footsteps of the seventh master sounded very weak, and the steps were a little messy, "pop, pop, pop"; Liang Ruoyi's steps are also very light, and she walks beautifully, like a Persian cat, coupled with my own limping footsteps, it seems to be playing a messy dance music, and then watching the movements of these people, people can't help but laugh.

"Altar!" The seventh master, who was walking in the front, suddenly said.

We stopped, and by the light of the flashlight, we could clearly see that a little altar sat a little bare, bare, and nothing in front of us.

Walking over, I found that the altar was made of blue and white stone, with a carving of a dragon on it, and there was nothing else.

"Seventh Master, it looks like the end is coming to an end!" The pig's head limped north for a while, then turned his head and shouted, "I can see the mountain wall!" ”

The Seventh Master suddenly frowned: This is confusing, after walking for so long, I have basically walked around the Yashan Sea Palace, whether it is the upper palace or the lower palace, plus this altar, it is all unobstructed, and there is no place to hide things. On the second layer below the ground, there are actually the old caves of those dead vines, and there will be nothing.

In this way, where is the Chixiao Sword? In other words, where is the real mausoleum of Emperor Zhao Yu at the end of the Song Dynasty?

"Seventh Master, I was suddenly thinking." I looked at the seventh master and said softly: "Back then, it was Lu Xiufu who took the Chixiao Sword and jumped into the Yashan Sea Palace with Zhao Yu on his back, and later some people said that Zhao Yu's body was found, but no one said that Lu Xiufu's body was found. Could it be that after Lu Hideo jumped into the sea, he brought out the Chixiao Sword by himself, which was originally his strategy? ”

The Seventh Master couldn't help but be happy when he heard my explanation: "Hehe, Xiao Gu, do you really think that Lu Xiufu can't do such a conspiracy, not to mention, if he really has this plan, can he use so much effort?" At that time, Zhao Yu was under his control, and he was surrounded by Lu Xiufu's cronies, if he wanted to leave with the Chixiao Sword, it would probably not be a difficult thing. ”

Again, I laughed self-deprecatingly and stopped talking. The cloth bag monk on the side glanced around, and seemed to feel clueless, so he turned his head to look at the seventh master, an expert in this area.

The Seventh Master took a flashlight and carefully looked at the surroundings, and finally looked at the dragon on the altar.

To be honest, this dragon pales in comparison to the sculptures I have seen in Shinto and the Upper Palace before, and although the carving is also considered superior, it is definitely not a masterpiece of one top and one of them.

The whole dragon is about a zhang long, and it is carved from a bird's-eye angle, which is quite strange. Under the dragon's head, you can see the winding dragon body, which extends to the white clouds under the dragon's body, and then throws out the dragon's tail from under the white clouds, and the momentum is enough.

It's just that the dragon's head didn't look straight up at the higher sky, but tilted to one side, which was also a little strange.

The seventh master seemed to pay attention to this, and after going around the dragon's head, he looked at the direction of the dragon's head and muttered: "It seems that it is due west......"

As he spoke, the seventh master stretched out his left arm, which was in a straight line with his head, and in this way, the direction that his left arm pointed to happened to be the direction of the lower palace and the upper palace.

"Got it!" The Seventh Master grinned and said: "The dragon soars to the sky, and looks at the west with disdain, which is the trick to look back and make a comeback!" The imperial tomb of Zhao Yu should be in the northwest of the Upper Palace, that is, directly west of where we are now! ”

After hearing this, everyone just nodded, and no one expressed their thoughts - among us, only the Seventh Master knew these things, before the pockmarked and old clams were half experts, and now, the pig's head seemed to be hiding something in front of the Seventh Master, and we were even more half-......

"That's it, let's go due west!" The Seventh Master smiled and waved his hand, stepped down from the altar, and walked due west.

We also hurriedly followed, after coming out of the lower palace, the ground here is a very ordinary gray stone floor, hundreds of years have passed, many places become powder as soon as you step on it, one foot deep and one foot shallow.

After walking for about a minute, the ground under our feet suddenly began to shake, we were unprepared, the pig's head staggered and sat directly on the ground, I grabbed Liang Ruoyi's arm, and slowly bowed down with her to lower the center of gravity, just to see what was going on, the altar behind us suddenly made a loud "boom......
