While Chen Ziyang was staring at the nine pieces of armor, several other people also gathered over. Jin Huang and Xu Xiaoyuan were also looking for clues on the armor together, Umbrella Shishuai was paying attention to the movements around him, and Yang Lei was depressed.

It is very rare, this time Chen Ziyang came out for the purpose of finding treasures, so Yang Lei was full of hope, hoping to make a windfall, but judging from the current situation, the truth does not seem to be the case, so he is now holding a straight face and holding his stomach. And there is one person whose face is uglier than him, and that is Shangguan Kangning.

When Shangguan Kangning was dragged away by Chen Ziyang and others from the utensils that fed Gu worms and went to other places to look for clues, he was very unhappy at first, but then Shangguan Kangning suddenly became enlightened.

This place is a witch tribe, and in comparison, the utensils that feed the Gu worms mean little to him, although Shangguan Kangning is very interested in these things, but he also figured it out.

Those utensils are basically used when feeding Gu worms with living people, and there is no practical use for his methods of raising Gu, those methods are too cruel, and they all need to be sacrificed by living people, so it is impossible for him to use them at all.

In this place, the really useful things should be some Gu books, or some methods of raising Gu, as well as the Gu worms that may exist.

After figuring this out, when searching for the ruins of the village, Shangguan Kangning was extra attentive, hoping to find some classics left by the Wu Gu tribe, or some other ways to improve the quality of his Gu worms.

But there are not many things left in the ruins of the entire village, there is not even a single house left, there are only some broken clay pots left in the ruins of the village, and there is no way to raise Gu worms that Shangguan Kangning wants to find, so he is even more depressed than Yang Lei.

Although he saw these with the corner of his eye, Chen Ziyang was not in the mood to persuade the two of them, in his opinion, the most important thing now was to find clues to Yuan Tiangang's treasure.

When I checked these armors before, I was afraid that the armor would have some mechanism attached to it, so several people didn't touch it at all. Because he suspected that there were very important clues hidden in these armors, Chen Ziyang boldly started to study them.

The armor that looked like a general stood at the front of the entire team independent of the other eight armors, while the remaining eight armors were divided into two parts, groups of four, and fanned out behind the general's armor.

The hems of the nine armours were about half a meter above the ground, and an iron rod two fingers thick stretched out from the hem of the armor and plunged into the rock below.

After kicking the iron rod with his foot, Chen Ziyang found that the part of the iron rod that seemed to be inserted into the rock was very long, and under his kick, the lower part of the iron rod did not move at all, and even the armor above shook very little, only some dust was dropped.

Chen Ziyang didn't expect this, he stretched out his scabbard, and tried to take off part of this armor from the iron frame, but these armors seemed to be welded to the iron frame, no matter how hard he exerted, he just didn't move.

A thin iron rod is so strong, and the armor is also very secure, this time Chen Ziyang came to the spirit, it seems that these armors must have other uses placed here.

As he shook his armor, the dust on the armor was shaken off a lot, revealing some patterns on the armor. Chen Ziyang took out a rag and gently wiped the dust on the armor. When he wiped off all the dust on the chest of the armor, he realized that these were not patterns, but Taoist talismans.

After making this discovery, Chen Ziyang hurriedly called Jin Huang and Xu Xiaoyuan over, and the three of them stared at the chest of the armor together.

"How? Any thoughts? ”

"This should indeed be some Taoist talismans, but I have never seen such a painting method at all, to say that the study of talismans and these things, Liu Cong is the best." After Jin Huang said this, he hurriedly covered his mouth, knowing that he had lost his words.

In order to get the iron book, Chen Ziyang knocked Liu Cong unconscious, and the relationship between the two is now very delicate, from former friends to current quasi-enemies, Jin Huang inadvertently mentioned Liu Cong and also regretted it.

Xu Xiaoyuan glanced at Jin Huang, this is really a pot that can't be opened, Jin Huang's words made her feel a little uncomfortable, and the atmosphere was very embarrassing for a while.

Chen Ziyang didn't care, and laughed it off. Although he knocked Liu Cong unconscious, it was also a helpless move, and Chen Ziyang did not regard Liu Cong as an enemy in his heart, but Liu Cong may not think so now.

After making this discovery, Chen Ziyang asked everyone to work together to wipe off all the dust on the nine pieces of armor in the shortest possible time, and see if there were any other discoveries.

The six of them kept flipping up and down with a few rags like a big cleaning, and for a moment the storm was rising, and everyone was choking on the dust and coughing.

"Huh? You see, it seems that even these iron shelves that hold the armor have Taoist talismans on them. While wiping one of the armors, Xu Xiaoyuan said in surprise.

Xu Xiaoyuan is a woman after all, and her heart is very fine, Chen Ziyang asked her to wipe the armor, but she even wiped the iron frame inside the armor clean, which led to this discovery.

Chen Ziyang hurriedly leaned over and stared at the clean iron frame that had been wiped by Xu Xiaoyuan. That's right, not only are there some Taoist talismans cast on the surface of the armor, but even on these thin iron rods, but these talismans on the iron shelves are very small.

Small to small, these talismans are extremely clear, and the patterns of small talismans are densely covered with the surface of the iron bars. These iron frames and armor are certainly not ordinary, but what is the use of them?

The iron frame inside the armor has many horizontal and vertical branches, intertwined, but there are no traces of splicing at the junction of these iron bars, and even the talismans on the surface of the iron bars are very naturally raised, it is obvious that this iron frame is cast in one piece.

I can't imagine that there is such a difficult casting method in the Tang Dynasty, this casting method requires the mold to be very fine, and these iron bars are so thin, and the lines of the talisman on it are so clear, this kind of casting method is more difficult to do even if it is the use of modern technology.

What's more, the part of the iron frame inserted into the rock below doesn't know how long it is, and this seemingly ordinary iron frame has deeply shocked Chen Ziyang. It's not simple, these things are definitely not simple.

In addition to cleaning the dust off the surface of the armor, they had another job, which was to wipe the inside of the armor, especially the surface of the iron shelves that supported the armor.

After staring at the talisman on the iron frame in surprise for a long time, Chen Ziyang stretched out his hand and gently stroked the surface of the iron frame with his hand for the first time, and then he held a "ten" shaped part in the middle of the iron frame.

After grasping it with his hand for a while, Chen Ziyang's eyes widened and widened, his eyes were full of disbelief, he hurriedly turned his head and said to Xu Xiaoyuan and Jin Huang beside him: "This iron shelf is on ...... Circulation with mana! ”

"What!" The surprised Xu Xiaoyuan and Jin Huang shouted in unison. This is really a big joke, now there are very few Taoist descendants who can cultivate mana, and everyone has made unimaginable efforts to cultivate the mana in the body, but this kind of thing actually appeared on an iron shelf.

Although the mana circulating in the iron frame was relatively weak, Chen Ziyang felt it clearly, this was indeed the mana that only Taoists could cultivate.

Xu Xiaoyuan and Jin Huang stretched out their hands at the same time, holding down different iron frames respectively, and after feeling it for a while, the two of them were also like Chen Ziyang, with a surprised face.

"That's right, there is indeed a circulation of mana, it seems to be...... It seems to have come from below. Xu Xiaoyuan said.

Nodding, Chen Ziyang also agreed with this thought, and he hurriedly squatted down and grabbed the bottom part of the iron frame that protruded from the general's armor, that is, the part that was close to the ground.

At this time, the feeling from his hand let Chen Ziyang know that these mana were indeed transmitted upwards from below the ground, and the mana here was stronger than the mana contained in the iron frame above.

"It's not just these iron shelves, you touch the armor." Jin Huang pressed his hands on the breastplate of a pair of armors, and his eyes shone brightly.

"Yes, the mana contained in the armor is much stronger than that on the iron shelf, and even much stronger than the mana in my body, it feels very obvious." Xu Xiaoyuan's excited voice changed a little.

They didn't notice this because they had a rag in their hands when they touched the armor, but now when they found out that there was mana circulating in the iron frame and armor, they were all very excited.

The mana circulating in the armor was very pure and very strong, and feeling this most orthodox Taoist mana, the three of them all felt that their bodies were hot, as if the mana in their bodies was cheering and jumping.

"Do you feel that the mana contained in the armor is increasing little by little, as if ...... It was as if the armor was a huge battery, recharging little by little, and I felt that the mana contained in the armor was about to reach its peak, that is, the power was about to be filled. ”

While saying these words, Chen Ziyang kept staring at the iron rod sticking out of the ground. It seems that the source of the mana contained in the armor is these iron rods that have been deeply embedded in the ground.

The iron rod acts like a wire, drawing mana out of the ground and storing it in armor.

"Yes, it's not increasing very quickly, but it's increasing. It's like a drop of water poured into a huge crockpot, which is about to be filled. What happens if it's full? ”

Hearing Xu Xiaoyuan's words, Chen Ziyang's eyes widened fiercely. Yes! These iron frames and armor are so magical, and they are left by Yuan Tiangang, and they are constantly extracting mana, they must have their use. And the mana contained in the armor is so strong, these armors must be of great use.

"When the mana is full...... Countdown? These armors are like a timekeeping device, and mana is like a second hand, if the mana in the armor is full, that is, when the countdown is over, these armors should be activated. ”

Although Chen Ziyang's words were inexplicable, several other people all understood what he meant, and everyone's eyes showed different looks, some were surprised, some were frightened, and some were afraid, while Chen Ziyang's eyes showed expectation.

The mana transmitted from the ground by the iron frame is very weak, but the mana in the armor is very strong, and after comparing the two, Chen Ziyang roughly calculated that it will take about ten years to make the mana contained in these armors reach the peak.

And these armors have been sitting here for almost 1,000 years, so if you think about it, maybe every ten years or so, these armors will be filled with mana, and then use up this mana.

The nine pieces of armor are like a mechanism with a precise timekeeping function, which activates itself as soon as it is time to turn it on. Chen Ziyang felt that this countdown once every ten years was very likely to be the way to open Yuan Tiangang's treasure.

Just as he was guessing what would happen when the armor was filled with mana, a crunch sound of "dang" came from the general's armor, followed by an identical sound from the other eight pieces of armor.

"Stand back." Chen Ziyang gestured to the other five people as he spoke, and several of them slowly stepped back, narrowing the distance between them and the armor, but when they retreated, their eyes never took off the nine armors.

With each "dang" sound, the armor shook, and some of the dust hidden in the cracks of the armor that had not been wiped clean before was shaken out.

With the passage of time, the sound of "dangdang" is endless, and the frequency is getting faster and faster. As the tremors intensified, the nine pieces of armor trembled slightly.

With a "brush" sound, the eight armors behind the general's armor turned at the same time, and these eight armors were divided into two groups, like well-trained soldiers, and turned to the left and right sides at the same time.

Chance, this is chance, Chen Ziyang thought in his heart that it was chance that he could get Yuan Tiangang's treasure map, and when he led everyone here, he happened to catch up with the end of the countdown once in ten years. This treasure is really related to me.

Chen Ziyang's face was excited, looking forward to what would happen next.
