Volume 3 Chapter 77 The Clansmen Enter the Secret Room
The old patriarch led everyone to the stream, looked around, and determined the location of the entrance to the secret room of the Divine Tomb. The pen %fun %pavilion www.biquge.info said to the clansmen, "The dog said that those three people have opened the secret room, then the formation of the Seven Stars Yaoyang Pass has been broken, and there should be only one of the seven pieces of jade left, in the center of the stream, otherwise it would not be so peaceful here." If all seven pieces of jade are taken away, the secret room will appear, but if the jade leaves for more than a day and a night, peace will be restored here, but the secret room will also be self-contained, and it will not be easy to open the secret room at that time. The fish had just been killed, and the body had been brought into the chamber, and now it was calm again, so the jade was still underneath. Go down and go down to the center of this location and take out the jade. As he spoke, the old patriarch pointed to the stream in front of him.
If Xu Jiong and the three of them were here, they would be surprised, that's right, the location that the old patriarch pointed to was the entrance to the secret room that they had been looking for for a long time to find.
After the old patriarch finished speaking, two people handed over the torches in their hands to the people next to them and went down to the stream, went to the position of the old patriarch's finger to fish, and sure enough, after a while, the two of them brought a piece of jade out of the water.
"Patriarch, I found it."
"Okay, come back, the entrance to the chamber will open soon."
In response to the old patriarch's words, a whirlpool of the stream appeared, and an underground passage appeared.
The old patriarch waved his hand and took the lead in the front, followed closely by everyone.
Not far after entering the passage, two corpses were seen lying on one of the walls of the passage.
The old patriarch hurriedly walked over and saw the fish die here with his own eyes, and the old patriarch finally determined the seriousness of the matter in his heart.
Seeing Chen Xiaoqing next to the fish again, everyone was shocked again.
"Why is Xiaoqing?"
The old patriarch probed Chen Xiaoqing's pulse and determined that Chen Xiaoqing was also dead.
"Well, he went with the fish."
A man next to him said, "Xiaoqing and Yu'er have already fallen in love, although they were killed, they both left, which is the best situation, this is the case, it is better to give the two of them a secret marriage and be buried together!" ”
The rest of the people nodded in agreement, and the old patriarch also sighed deeply and nodded.
Then the old patriarch arranged for two young men to take the bodies of Chen Xiaoqing and Yu'er ashore first and bring them back to Chenjiaao. He continued to walk towards the secret room with the rest of the people.
The old patriarch also came down for the first time, looking at everything on the ground, but he was puzzled in his heart. As far as he knew, there should be a mechanism in the passage of the secret room, why could it be seen from the clean situation on the ground that the mechanism here was not activated at all, or rather, the mechanism here seemed to be ineffective. This is unlikely. But apparently now is not the time to look into this issue either.
After a while, everyone came to the entrance of the secret room. The stone door to the chamber was still open. Torches lit up the whole room, and several torches were placed on the wall, and the old patriarch put the torches in his hand, and several young men also put the torches on them. The secret room is not big, and there are not many young people among the direct patriarchs of the Chen family, only about twenty people, and they just took the bodies of Chen Xiaoqing and Yu'er to two more, and these people did not seem too crowded standing in the secret room.
There was only one large chest placed next to the high platform on the ground, and the mural on the wall attracted the attention of the patriarch, and more people were not so interested in the chest on the ground, perhaps because it was not opened, and they did not know what was inside.
The old patriarch opened the box, and the golden light flashed, and everyone looked over, and after seeing the contents of the box, they were all dumbfounded and stunned. But after a while, they all came back to their senses. But there was no greed in the eyes of everyone, only doubt.
The old patriarch looked at these young people, and from what he saw in their eyes, the old patriarch was very relieved. Nodding his head, he said, "The treasure here should be left by the ancestors, and I didn't know before." The man who opened this chamber came for the treasure. The traces on the ground are clear, and there were several boxes of treasure before they came, but for some reason, they didn't seem to take them all at once, but this box of treasure is here, and they will still come back to get it. That's when we caught them. ”
When everyone heard this, they all agreed with the old patriarch's statement.
A young man said, "Old patriarch, what are we going to do?" “
The old patriarch buttoned the box, thought for a moment, and said, "Zhongju, you are the best martial artist in the clan, so you will take the lead." You take two people back first, fetch a big box, and bring the treasure of this box back to Chenjiaao. Leave the whole empty box here, and we'll wait for the rabbit. “
Chen Zhongju responded, and took a few brothers back to Chenjiaao.
The old patriarch said to the young man next to him, "Zhongxuan, you are the smartest in the clan, and the great disaster in the clan is coming, and you will never get through it so easily." The death of Yu'er and Xiaoqing, and the appearance of the secret room are all signs of a catastrophe coming. You have to remember that no matter what happens in the clan, you must try your best to escape this catastrophe with your clansmen, and if you can survive one by one, you must keep more children, they are the hope of our Chen clan. “
The old patriarch's words were like explaining the aftermath, and Chen Zhongxuan listened to it in his ears, which was very heavy. Nodding heavily, he said to the old patriarch, "Don't worry, old patriarch, even if Zhongxuan is broken to pieces, he will not live up to the old patriarch's trust, and my Chen clan will never be wiped out in this catastrophe." “
The old patriarch patted Chen Zhongxuan's shoulder with relief, nodded, and whispered something to him.
At this time, a young man said, "Old patriarch, you see, there is still a corpse here.
Perhaps the shadow under the high platform of the city obscured the skeleton, and the crowd focused on the frescoes and treasures and ignored him.
The old patriarch walked over, looked at the bones, and told the young man to put them in a bright place. Only then did I see the condition of the entire corpse.
"Who is he? Is it the ancestor of our Chen family? ”
The old patriarch checked it, shook his head, and said, "He's not, he's also an outsider. When I came down just now, I wondered why the mechanism here had failed, apparently it had been destroyed before. It seems that it is the masterpiece of this man. This person was dressed in Taoist robes and appeared to be a Taoist priest. Judging by his bones and robes, he had been dead for many years. It seems that he was already here many years ago. Those few people were just the ones who came later. Because this person destroyed the mechanism, those people were able to take the treasure here so easily. This person should be a high-ranking person, but I don't know why he found this place? ”
Thinking of this, the old patriarch's eyes suddenly lit up, and he quickly rummaged through the bones.
Chen Zhongxuan was puzzled in his heart and asked, "Old patriarch, what are you looking for?" ”
The old patriarch looked through it, found nothing, sighed, and said, "This person appeared here, not for wealth, so I thought that the divine chapter would be on this person's body, it seems that I thought too much." ”
