"It doesn't matter how this person died, I found a very important question." Yang Lei said solemnly while carrying a few jars while looking at the bones hanging on the plants.

His words immediately caught the attention of others. After all, the gold belt buckle was found by Yang Lei, so the others thought that he had found something important. Especially Instructor Liu, as soon as he heard Yang Lei say this, he couldn't wait to ask, "What important questions?" What did you find? ”

Seeing Yang Lei's serious expression, and seeing the attention of others attracted by him, Chen Ziyang almost couldn't hold back his laughter and squirted out. Yang Lei's expression is too familiar to him, as long as Yang Lei's face has this serious expression, then it means that this kid will definitely not be able to let out a good fart, and his next words will definitely shock other people.

"You say this guy has been here for so long, where did all his go? Have we ever stepped on this journey? Yang Lei still said with a serious face.

Chen Ziyang, who had been mentally prepared for a long time, was not thundered by this sentence, but showed a decisive expression. But when he saw Instructor Liu's obvious eyes closed, his whole body trembled slightly, and it seemed that in the time of just 0/a second, Instructor Liu should have fainted.

Xiao Ren and the team doctor also felt that their breathing was not smooth, and it took a while for these two people to take a breath.

"Alright, don't make a fuss. Although he was still joking just now, what Yang Lei said also made some sense. You've seen it before, the hammer and the chisel are worn out, and it is estimated that the paintings on the dozen or so stone tablets in front of it were all chiseled by this person with these two tools.

When I looked at the last painting, I noticed that the lines were a little uneven, and they were uneven and of different thicknesses. I didn't understand the reason before, but now that I think about it, it should be because in the later stage, the chisel was worn out so badly that there was no way to use it to chisel out more beautiful lines.

Although I have never carved on the rocks, the first dozen or so drawings are so detailed, and there are so many scenes and people, and they are so perfectly outlined, that I think it is impossible for a single person to do these things in a few years.

As had already been shown in the previous paintings, the king had a quarrel with the local villagers, after which the king was tied up and taken to the strange tree. Now it seems that it is quite possible that the king did not die at that time, and that he did not leave the ancient city with the rest of the people.

He stayed here, even lived in the passage, and has been carving on the top of the stone tablets, recording the rise and fall of the ancient city. However, I reckon that it is likely that only the last few pictures tell the story of the king's own experience.

It is very likely that the previous pictures are the history of the ancient kingdom of Sumi, although I don't know how many years it has existed in the desert, but I think it must have been at least a few kings, and it is very likely that this gold belt buckle is the symbol of the king.

The main question now is what we will face next. As you can see, the old tree in the picture is very strange, so strange that its roots can kill people. And the tree is a bit exaggerated.

Now that we think about it, if we follow the root system of these plants, it is very likely that we will find that strange ancient tree, and these root systems on the side wall of the passage must have grown from the ancient tree.

I don't think the five of us can deal with such a behemoth. Although I promised you to help you find the treasure of this ancient country, I don't want to leave my life here for no reason.

If even one of the roots around here would wriggle like in the pictures, we'd all die here. So this is the second time I've asked you, what exactly are we up against? What kind of danger are there? If you don't answer, there's really no way for me to move on. ”

After Chen Ziyang finished saying these words to Instructor Liu, he looked at Xiao Ren and the team doctor from the corner of his eye, and he could also see from the eyes of the other two that they were hesitating.

It seems that these two people don't know what Instructor Liu is familiar with, they don't know what is in the depths of this passage, and they don't know what the treasure of this ancient country is. It seems that these two people also want Instructor Liu to answer their words.

Instructor Liu saw everyone's meaning from everyone's reactions, although it was said that Xiao Ren and the team doctor were in the same group as himself, but for now, there was no mutual hostility in this team for the time being. Although everyone obeys their own orders, when it comes to the safety of their own lives, everyone will think about their own safety first.

Instructor Liu knew that if he didn't come up with something at this time, it was very likely that these four people would not continue to follow him forward. It didn't matter to anyone else, if Chen Ziyang really didn't plan to move on, then even if he reached the location where the treasure was, it would be useless.

After all, if you want to open the treasure, you still need the diamond in Chen Ziyang's hand, and this diamond is not used by anyone other than him.

After sighing, Instructor Liu said: "This matter is so incredible, I don't know how to tell you, even if I say it, it is very likely that you will not believe it."

As depicted in the picture, the end of this passage should be where the ancient tree is located. But rest assured, although I have not been to the end of this passage, I am certain that the ancient tree inside is dead. ”

"Things have come to this point, you are still hiding like this, how can you make us believe you. I've been through a lot of things, and I've experienced a lot of things that I thought were only possible in movies before.

Everyone is in this business, and some things are no longer strange, even if it is bizarre, as long as what you say makes sense and is reasonable, we will still believe it, but if you don't say it, we really don't know what to do. ”

"Well, I see you've made up your mind, and if I don't tell you the truth, there's a good chance you won't follow me. Then I will tell you everything I know, and whether you believe it or not, it is up to you to choose. ”

After saying this, Instructor Liu found a place to sit down, put on a posture that he thought was more comfortable, looked at the four people standing in front of him, and said slowly: "All of this has a very old-fashioned beginning, whether it is the reason why we came here, or the reason for the prosperity and fall of the ancient kingdom, it is all related to immortality. ”

As soon as the four words of immortality came out of Instructor Liu's mouth, Yang Lei, who was standing on the side, immediately stopped doing it, and he jumped up and shouted: "Let you tell the truth, not let you make up a story here, even if you make up a story, can you make up a story that everyone can convince, but you also use dim sum when you make it up, you can't even fool a seven-year-old child with this story now." ”

Seeing Yang Lei's excited move, Instructor Liu smiled helplessly, "I'll just say that you don't believe me when I say it, what about now?" I just said a word, and you don't believe it. ”

Xiao Ren and the team doctor glanced at each other, and both of them saw the incredulous meaning in each other's eyes, but Chen Ziyang frowned. Although he was also very dissatisfied with the words immortality, he still said:

"Don't even speak, let Instructor Liu finish the matter, and when he finishes speaking, we will choose whether we should believe him or not." After all, we are asking him to say it, and at least we must give him basic respect. ”

Instructor Liu nodded to Chen Ziyang, showing a grateful smile, and then he continued: "Since ancient times, all those who are high and powerful have dreamed of immortality, as long as they can live one more day, they can enjoy one more day.

The most well-known thing in history is that Qin Shi Huang asked for the elixir of life, and the closest to us is probably Emperor Yongzheng. Yongzheng is also superstitious about alchemy, and it is even rumored that he died violently because he ate poisonous pills. ”

Hearing this, Chen Ziyang nodded slightly. Because he knew that the fact that Emperor Yongzheng died violently because he ate poisonous pills may not be rumors at all, but very likely to be facts.

This can be seen from the intelligence collected by his fifth grandfather, Chen Benzhong. Even the two Taoist ancestors who gave alchemy to Emperor Yongzheng hid the location of the treasure of the dragon vein of the Great Qing Dynasty in the Taoist holy land.

"Being able to live forever is the dream of every emperor, or everyone's dream, but ordinary people are not capable of finding a way to live forever.

Although no one has been able to achieve immortality since ancient times, someone has long found a way to make people close to immortality. ”

As soon as Instructor Liu finished speaking, a look of surprise flashed in the eyes of the other four people. Seeing the eyes of the four people, Instructor Liu was very smug, and then he continued:

"I'm a tomb robber, as you all know, and there's a bigger boss behind me, but it's not convenient for me to reveal his identity. This boss of mine came from a family of tomb robbers, and when he was in the Republic of China, his ancestor accidentally discovered the method of immortality.

Although this method does not really make people immortal, it can at least ensure that a normal person can increase his life span by several decades, not only to increase his lifespan, but even after the person is more than 100 years old, his physical function is still sound, and he can still eat large pieces of meat, drink wine in large bowls, and even have a woman every night is not a problem. ”

"Damn, what the hell is the method, you hurry up! Even if you can't really live forever, your statement is attractive enough, I doubt that I can still raise my head when I see a woman after the age of fifty, your method is okay after the age of 100, it's too exaggerated, I really like it. Yang Lei couldn't wait to expose his true nature.

"Let me just say, immortality is a very attractive thing for everyone. It is so desirable to increase your life span by a few decades for no reason, and in these decades, you can do whatever you want, not just waiting for death.

Have any of you heard of dragon blood strains? ”

"Dragon's blood strain?" Chen Ziyang frowned and thought carefully. Although he has also been to a few tombs, after all, the number of times is not very many, and the things he has seen are relatively few, and in his memory, he has never heard the words dragon blood strain.

Seeing that everyone shook their heads, Instructor Liu continued: "There are many strange plants in this world, and the dragon's blood strain is one of them. My boss's ancestor accidentally found a strange plant in a tomb during a tomb robbery.

The plant looks like a cactus pillar, but instead of thorns, it has small holes. This plant is blood-red and secretes a red mist from the pores on the plant, which is very dense and can gather on the surface of the ground.

When they entered the tomb, the whole tomb was filled with red mist, and the people who entered the tomb were at a loss, thinking that they had encountered some powerful red murderer.

But when they inhaled this red mist, all of them suddenly felt a hundred times more energetic, and even the fatigue of digging the thief hole before was swept away in an instant. At this time, my boss's ancestor found that this red mist should be a kind of treasure.

Comparatively speaking, the other things you get in that tomb don't matter how valuable they are, and they can't compare to this red mist and this red plant.

But unfortunately, the plant in the tomb had already died a long time ago, and the red mist in the tomb remained, and with the opening of the robbery cave, the red mist slowly dissipated.

But just by letting people smell it, they can instantly recover their strength, and my boss's ancestor immediately realized that this plant is a rare treasure, so he got the dead plant out and studied it carefully. ”

Hearing this, Chen Ziyang and Yang Lei glanced at each other in unison, and the two of them remembered what happened in the Bohai Palace at the same time.

The strange cluster of plants that the two of them saw in the Bohai Palace, both in appearance and in the red mist emitted, were exactly the same as those described by Instructor Liu. Now that I think about it, nine times out of ten, the blood-red plants that the two of them saw should be the dragon blood strains that Instructor Liu said.

Seeing the surprised expressions on the faces of the two people, Instructor Liu also realized that something was wrong. "What? Have you two met? Where is it? Tell me! ”
