But these incisions left on the bones of the corpse do not look like those left by bladed weapons, because even if the bladed weapons are sharp, it is impossible to cut such a smooth and neat incision, and just a few can be understood, almost every corpse here is like this, just imagine that if you really have to slaughter so many laborers, the sharp knife will also be blunt, and it will inevitably leave irregular cuts in the wound, but we have not found any unsmooth incisions now.

"Why are they being pushed into the river?" Wen Zhuo thought for a long time and said meaningfully. "If you want to destroy the corpses and destroy the traces, this old dragon ditch can be used as a mass grave if you dig a random place, why do you have to choose to push these laborers into the river?"

In fact, I didn't understand this problem, I suddenly noticed that the platform on the other side of the river, as it was too big, I couldn't see it completely, but standing here I searched for a long time and found that the platform on the other side was also empty.

It stands to reason that we should first take a break from the platform opposite, then build the place where we stand, and finally pour into the sea water to separate it, if we finally slaughter the laborers, the instinctive reaction should be that someone should swim to the opposite side, but why is the platform on the opposite side clean, and there is no corpse to see.

"This river is not wide, how can you swim through it if the water is better." Xiao Lianshan said disapprovingly.

"Since there are no corpses on the opposite platform...... It means that they can't swim through. Wen Zhuo looked at the bones in his hand and said thoughtfully.

I suddenly thought of something, asked Xiao Lianshan and Wen Zhuo to find a few more bones, and finally tied them together with a stone, weighed it a few times, about the same weight as a person, and then Xiao Lianshan and I threw it into the river together.

Because of the weight of the stones, the bones of the bound bodies fell into the river and sank, and in a moment suddenly we heard the sharp sound of metal cutting things from the river, and then some of the bones that we were bound together bounced out of the sea, splashing everywhere, and several of them fell on the platform on which we were standing.

I picked up the bones on the ground and saw a new, flat incision, exactly the same as the other corpses, and I took a deep breath to finally understand why no one had crossed the platform on the other side.

"There are mechanisms under the water, it should be some kind of extremely sharp blade, and the number is not small, it will keep rotating under the drive of the current, like a knife that keeps cutting, these mechanisms that rely on the flow of water are like a huge strangulation, and anyone who falls into it will be torn apart."

"These people were not pushed into the river after they were killed, they should have been pushed into the river and massacred after the construction of this place was completed." Yue Qianling pursed her lips and said in horror. "It is not only convenient and easy to choose this place to destroy the corpses, no one can survive, and no one knows about the slaughtered people who are washed down the river into the sea."

"It shows that the platform on the other side of the river should be the 14th Mausoleum of the Ming Dynasty, and Zhu Yuanzhang built this strangulation mechanism to prevent people from going to the other side." Gu Anqi looked at the distance and muttered to herself.

Zhu Yuanzhang built this place not only to prevent people from going to the other side, he would also consider that the future Ming Emperor would come here, and he would definitely leave a way to close these mechanisms, I thought about it while looking back around the platform, and soon found a winch column in the corner of the stone wall.

And Xiao Lianshan also found a heavy stone sluice on the river on the left, this winch column should be the one that controls the stone sluice, once there is no impact of the water flow, the mechanism in the river will stop.

The five of us worked together to push the winch column, the mechanism was very cleverly designed, the huge winch column was slowly rotated under the promotion of the five of us, the stone gate on the left was slowly lowered in the deafening roar, submerged into the river, after a long time we heard a heavy crash, the stone gate blocked the water source, we waited on the stone platform, and sure enough, we soon found that the water level in the river was slowly falling.

We don't know exactly how long we waited, it seems that time has become an ethereal thing in this deep stone cave, until the water level in the river drops to half, we can clearly see the design of the entire river, the river is installed on both sides of countless sharp blades like gears, under the impact of the water, these blades rotate rapidly, even after hundreds of years, these blades have no traces of rust, still in the light of the fire under the touching cold light, And the distribution of these blades is obviously carefully designed, and there is no blind spot in this river.

Anyone who falls into it will not be lucky to survive, in the middle of the river as the stone gate falls, several incoherent stone pillars slowly rise, which is also designed before, these stone pillars are the passage to the platform on the opposite bank, and will only be triggered when the stone gate is lowered.

The seawater in the river has basically been cleaned, we looked down to see that in the river in addition to the strangling blade, at the bottom of the river is an upright iron thorn, the river is about more than 20 meters deep, even if those huge sharp blades are no longer selected, but to the opposite platform, the slightest miss will be pierced by the sharp iron below the heart and die.

Xiao Lianshan walked first, every step was like walking on thin ice, he decided to be safe before calling us over, I followed Xiao Lianshan, these stone pillars are not connected together, the distance between is large and small, because it has been buried under the sea water for a long time, it is covered with seaweed and other slippery things, Xiao Lianshan almost slipped when he stood on it several times.

After he made sure it was safe in front, he would quickly clear out a place where he could put his feet, and then motioned for us to follow the place where he walked forward, Yue Qianling and Gu Anqi followed me, Wen Zhuo stayed at the end, this is not a wide river We walked for a long time to reach the opposite bank, and when I stood on the opposite platform, I found that the vest was full of cold sweat.

The platform was exactly the same as it had been before, and as we walked deeper into the platform in the light of the fire, I thought there would be some danger, but we couldn't believe our eyes until we saw the majestic altar at the very back of the platform.

This is an altar made of white marble, illuminated by firelight, and the whole white altar is eye-catching in this dark underground palace.

The altar has a total of four sides, a total of three layers of gradual structure, the bottom layer is the pedestal, the middle layer of the four sides by the Taoist four spirit beasts, from east to north are the green dragon, the white tiger, the red bird and the Xuanwu, and the third layer of the platform is composed of a whole piece of jade, by the Baxia to carry the burden, we quickly identified that the Ming Dynasty is carved on it, and the jade is carved around the gods and goddesses.

This place is near the East China Sea, and the altar is built in the mountains, the water is surrounded by mountains, when I came, I deliberately saw the feng shui here, it is indeed a good place to protect the fortune of the country, it seems that Qin is not completely coping with Zhu Yuanzhang, the East China Sea is blessed with the aura of many immortal mountains, this altar borrows the aura of the East China Sea to keep each other, and the mountains and rivers here are all obtained by pouring the sea into the mountains, which happens to be the permanent solid bureau of the rivers and mountains.

It's just that I'm not too interested in this now, but I'm very surprised that Qin Yishou is obviously to seal the mana of the Nine Heavens Hidden Dragon Duel, so he built the Ming Fourteenth Tomb, since I found here, but why didn't I feel the slightest resonance with the Nine Heavens Hidden Dragon Duel.

And there is also a tricky question, how should I destroy the seal set by Qin Yishou, I think back to when I was in the Great Master Sea, I didn't seem to do anything deliberately in the end, just activated the self-destruction mechanism inside.

"Brother, could it be that as long as you destroy this altar, the mana that your Nine Heavens Hidden Dragon Decisive was sealed will be unlocked." Xiao Lianshan asked.

"I don't know, Qin Yishou didn't tell me, not to mention that he couldn't tell me, theoretically it should be to destroy this altar even if the seal is broken."

Xiao Lianshan thought about it and picked up a big stone from the ground, looked at me and asked.

"It's all here anyway, why don't you give it a try, smash this altar first and see if there is any reaction."

Yue Qianling was very curious that I didn't stop Xiao Lianshan, after I nodded, Xiao Lianshan smashed an altar that had been preserved for hundreds of years intact in a short time, and Yue Qianling and Gu Anqi next to him looked distressed.

Xiao Lianshan looked at the tattered altar and asked me for breath.

"Brother, how is it, has the seal been broken?"

"It's fake." I took a deep breath and replied lightly.

"Fake? How can this be fake, isn't this the Ming Fourteenth Mausoleum? Gu Anqi asked in surprise when she heard me say this.

"It doesn't matter if this is the Fourteenth Tomb of the Ming Dynasty, but this will definitely not be the place where Qin single-handedly sealed the mana of the Nine Heavens Hidden Dragon." I shook my head and replied in the affirmative.

"Why?" Xiao Lianshan held the stone and asked puzzled.

"Wei Yong has to rely on me to help him destroy the seal in the Great Master's Sea, and Qin Yishou also said that the Nine Heavens Hidden Dragon of the seal cannot be broken by anyone except me." I pointed at Xiao Lianshan and said with a wry smile. "Lian Shan can smash this altar, and Wei Yong can do the same, but this altar is still intact until now, which only shows that the place where the Nine Heavens Hidden Dragon Decisive was truly sealed is not here."

I suddenly found that I hadn't heard Wen Zhuo's voice for a long time, and when I turned around, I saw him watching everywhere, and I was about to ask him, when I saw Wen Zhuo put his finger to his mouth and signaled me not to speak, he seemed to be listening to something.

Wen Zhuo suddenly walked to Yue Qianling's side, this time he was very serious.

"You have a delicate heart that will not be disturbed, you close your eyes and listen, and see what you can hear?"

Yue Qianling was stunned, seeing Wen Zhuo's serious appearance, she didn't ask much, she did what Wen Zhuo said, none of us spoke, the entire empty cave was extremely quiet, even if a needle fell, I am afraid I could hear it clearly, but I didn't hear anything.

It took Yue Qianling a long time to open her eyes and said with some doubts.

"I don't know if I heard it wrong, but I heard the subtle tearing sound of the rock breaking, and the dripping sound of seawater seeping through the cracks in the rocks."

Wen Zhuo and I looked at each other with a grim look.

"You can't stay here for long, hurry back."

Since this altar is not the place to seal the mana of the Nine Heavens Hidden Dragon, it has no special meaning for us, seeing that Wen Zhuo was so nervous, I hurriedly asked everyone to return the same way, and after walking a few steps, everyone heard a dull cracking sound, and the sound was very loud from the river in the distance.
