After grazing the sharp passage junction from time to time, Chen Ziyang secretly screamed in his heart, just now he even felt that the sharp rock at the passage junction was rubbing his face.

After entering the passage on the right, Chen Ziyang put all his attention in front of him, he didn't know if the passage he chose was correct, and he didn't know what would appear in front of the passage, so he could only be vigilant and face the unexpected situation.

After sliding along this passage for a while, he saw what appeared in the passage, Chen Ziyang was so angry that he almost didn't take his back on it, and the passage at this time was divided into two forks again, and it was still a "human" shaped passage fork, and the sharp passage junction seemed to show a smiling face, waiting for him to bump into it.

Looking at the familiar fork in front of him, Chen Ziyang even had an illusion that he felt that he had gone back in time and returned to the moment when he encountered the fork of the first channel.

He couldn't figure out why the passage was designed like this, if it was intended to be used to prevent theft, to take the life of a tomb robber, then it was enough to place some sharp objects in the passage.

With his current falling speed, let alone hitting some stone pillars or iron rods, even if a flat wall stands there, it is enough for the falling person to hit his head and bleed and die directly.

Thinking of this, Chen Ziyang suddenly woke up, he felt that the person who designed this kind of mechanism deliberately left a trace of vitality in it, this is the chance.

"I turned to the right just now, so this time it's better to go to the left." The rapid decline did not leave Chen Ziyang much time to think. After having this thought, he pushed the side wall of the passage with his right hand, twisted his body violently, and let his body lean against the left side of the passage, and then directly drilled into the left passage.

"Could there be a third fork in this passage?" Before Chen Ziyang could feel that his idea was ridiculous, the fork of the third passage appeared in front of him.

Compared to the length of the passage between the first and second forks, the passage between the second and third forks is much shorter, leaving him with a lot less time to react.

This time, Chen Ziyang didn't have time to think about which passage he should take, he just relied on the position of his body in the passage to adjust it slightly, and went directly into the passage closest to him.

When passing through the fork of the third passage, Chen Ziyang even felt that the sharp passage junction had cut a piece of flesh on his body.

Now the distance he has slid down from the channel is not short, this channel is diagonally downward, Chen Ziyang's speed is getting faster and faster, and then he understands that it is not that the distance between the second fork and the third fork has become shorter, but that his speed has become faster.

According to this point of view, when you just pass through the third bifurcation, you can already use the interval to describe it, and if there is a fourth point difference, your own life will be explained here, and your body will directly hit the junction of the two passages, and your body will be cut in half by the sharp junction.

Just when Chen Ziyang was worried, he suddenly felt a large darkness coming towards him, and the light of the headlamp seemed to disappear in an instant, and the surroundings were pitch black.

Chen Ziyang, who didn't understand what was going on, suddenly felt that he had fallen heavily on a relatively large and at the same time very soft object.

However, even if this object was relatively soft, because the speed of the slide was too fast, Chen Ziyang still felt that he had been smashed, and a string of Venus flew in front of him, and at the same time, a very unpleasant smell appeared in his nostrils.

The smell seems to be a mixture of many flavors, such as rotten, earthy, and even moldy.

"Oh no, the air quality here is not good!" After this thought flashed through his mind, Chen Ziyang estimated that he had broken away from the passages paved with black smooth stone slabs and fell to the bottom of the passages.

Although he was aware of the danger, the current Chen Ziyang was now blackened by the fall, and he barely managed to keep himself from fainting with his strong will.

"Can't pass out, can't pass out, oxygen cylinder!" Chen Ziyang felt that every muscle in his body was in severe pain, even if he wanted to hold the oxygen cylinder, it was very difficult.

After using the last bit of strength in his body, he felt the oxygen cylinder hanging on his waist, and then he secretly screamed luck, but fortunately, the oxygen cylinder did not detach from his body when he slipped off.

Twisting the ventilator valve on the oxygen cylinder, Chen Ziyang wanted to press the breathing mask connected to the catheter on his nose, but at this time he felt that he had no strength in his whole body.

Before passing out, Chen Ziyang knew that he couldn't take this respirator with him no matter what, and the respirator was still a little away from his nose, but he couldn't feel the existence of his right hand anymore.

After waking up suddenly, Chen Ziyang felt that his head seemed to be sober. The sensation from his subordinates let him know that he was still at the bottom of the passage, and that what his hand was pressing on was like fur, very soft. But it was pitch black, and there was no light at all.

"Am I still alive? It's a big life, and I didn't fall to my death, nor was I suffocated here. After pinching his face and feeling the sharp pain, Chen Ziyang knew that he was indeed alive.

The headlight on the helmet had come out of the buckles, and I didn't know where it had fallen, and the backpack wasn't on my body. Chen Ziyang understood, he felt the sharp passage junction crossing his body before, and it seemed that his backpack was cut off at that time, and the backpack didn't know where it went.

Although he still felt a burst of pain on his body, this pain had been reduced a lot, and after trying to move his limbs, Chen Ziyang touched it, and there was no missing part on his body.

The smell of mold in the air was still very strong, but the smell of earth was much lighter, recalling the scene when he had just fallen into here before, Chen Ziyang couldn't understand why he didn't suffocate here.

Realizing that the air quality was still not good, he hurriedly groped around him with his hands, hoping to find the dropped headlamp.

Chen Ziyang was touching under him, and wondered what he had fallen on? This mass of stuff felt like a thick pile of fur, very soft and fluffy at the same time.

But as he groped, the smell of earth in the air became thick again, and it seemed that there was a thick layer of dust on these fur-like things, which drifted into the air with his own blows.

A cylindrical object was grasped by Chen Ziyang in his hand, and this thing was cold to the touch. Then he realized that this was the oxygen cylinder he had opened earlier. Holding the oxygen cylinder for a while, Chen Ziyang found that the oxygen cylinder was very light, and it seemed that all the oxygen in it had been released.

After touching the area of about a meter in front of him, Chen Ziyang didn't touch anything else, and then he turned around and touched it in the direction behind him.

According to his estimate, if the headlamp was detached from the buckle after he had entered here, the headlamp should not fall far because of the obstacle of these fur-like things, so it was very necessary to search his side first.

After touching it for a while, Chen Ziyang suddenly touched his backpack. He was overjoyed, although he didn't find the headlamp, but the backpack was enough, and the flashlight was still in the backpack.

Considering that the air here was likely to kill him, Chen Ziyang did not hesitate at all, turned on the flashlight and shone it around, and then he understood why he was not suffocated here.

It turned out that the volume of the space I was in was not too large, just a cube-shaped space with a side length of about 20 meters. The four walls and the top of this space are all of that kind of black smooth stone slabs.

It is precisely because the volume of this space is not large, so the oxygen in the oxygen cylinder that I opened before has increased the oxygen content here, and it seems that I have not passed out for long.

After a brief look, Chen Ziyang didn't find the passage he slipped into, it seemed that he had activated some mechanism after he slid in, and the passage had been covered by a black slate.

Seeing these black stone slabs, Chen Ziyang was a little worried, there was no exit here, and he didn't know how to get out, so he was eager to find an exit, so he moved the flashlight to his body.

As previously speculated, what Chen Ziyang was beneath was a pile of fur as thick as a hill. The furs were covered with a thick layer of dust, apparently not long after they had been here.

It is estimated that the furs were embalmed before they were placed here, so they have not rotted after so many years, and the purpose of this large pile of furs is to prevent people who slide in through the passage from falling to their deaths.

"Am I so lucky? All three consecutive forks were chosen correctly. What happens if you choose the wrong one? Or is there one such room at the end of every bifurcated passage? ”

Thinking of this, Chen Ziyang suddenly became happy. It seems that there is life here, there should be a way out, otherwise the existence of these thick furs will be meaningless, and then he moved the flashlight into the distance, trying to find a place of life.

After shining through the edges of the large pile of furs, the flashlight shone on the back of a man standing in the corner of the room. This startled Chen Ziyang, and he instantly pulled out the Xuanming Ancient Sword from his backpack, placed it across his chest, and looked at that person vigilantly.

When the flashlight hit this person, the person was still standing there motionless, as if he had no reaction to the light source, and at this time Chen Ziyang found that this person's back was a little familiar.

"This ...... Isn't this the statue of Yuan Tiangang that I saw on the stargazing platform? Why did you come here again? Chen Ziyang understood that the person standing in the corner of the room was not a real person, but still a stone statue.

This statue is exactly the same as the one I saw on the stargazing platform before, still wearing a bun, a hairpin on its head, and a Taoist robe, but it is slightly smaller. It seems that this statue should be made to life-size proportions.

The statue was facing the corner, there was nothing else around the statue except for the black stone slab, it seemed that this statue should be the switch of some mechanism, Chen Ziyang estimated that he might have gathered all on this statue when he left here.

Thinking of this, he grabbed his backpack and walked down the hill of furs.

The floor of this room is all paved with cyan stone slabs, and Chen Ziyang, who stepped on the ground, let out a sigh of relief, and finally felt the existence of friction again, this down-to-earth feeling is really extremely comfortable.

The edge of the fur pile was already very close to Yuan Tiangang's statue, looking at the statue of Yuan Tiangang that was close to him, Chen Ziyang suddenly had a strange feeling in his heart, this statue was a little different from the previous statue on the stargazing platform.

The statue on the stargazing platform looks up at the sky, giving people a sense of pride, as if it is not looking at the starry sky, but at the whole world. The statue in front of you feels completely different.

Although the statue still has its head up, it can be seen from the back of the statue that the statue is full of melancholy, as if an old man is watching the sunset and waiting for his death.

A feeling of sadness permeated Chen Ziyang's whole body. He couldn't understand why he felt sympathy for the statue in front of him, and the feeling of wanting to cry against the stone was a little ridiculous.

After all, Yuan Tiangang can be regarded as a Taoist senior, and he also left room in the passage where he fell, and did not have murderous machines all over the passage. Thinking of this, Chen Ziyang knelt down to the statue in front of him, and made a Taoist three kneels and nine bows to the statue.

"Yuan Tiangang senior, I don't know if you are the real Yuan Tiangang, I'll call you that, thank you for your kindness of not killing, thank you for your seniors, and thank you for opening up the net and leaving me a trace of vitality."

"Knock...... The sound of kowtowing ...... echoed in this small space, and after kowtowing nine times, Chen Ziyang suddenly heard the sound of stones rubbing in front of him, and then he raised his head and looked at the statue in front of him.

At this time, the statue actually came, and the two eyes of the statue looked at the kneeling person with bright eyes.

Chen Ziyang, who was unprepared, was startled, and he felt a layer of goosebumps all over his body instantly, and every hair stood on end.

But when he saw that it was still a stone statue in front of him, he was not so afraid, but became curious, and did not understand why the statue turned around for no reason.

At this moment, the front chest of the statue was opened, and the stone slab on the chest of the statue slowly turned downward, revealing a stone box placed in the chest cavity of the statue.
