"Mmmm!!mmmm Chu Ziyi's temples suddenly exploded, his eyes seemed to bulge out, and the bloodshot was densely covered, and the nails of the camouflage pants seemed to be sunk in.

When Hong Siniang took out the soft sword, Jiang Xian took out a towel and stuffed it into Chu Ziyi's mouth to prevent him from biting his tongue. At the same time, Ling Xiaozi and the eight-armed Arhat pressed his limbs. But even so, the violent struggle made several people use all their strength, and for several minutes, when everyone was sweating profusely, Chu Ziyi finally weakened the struggle.

Taking advantage of this time, Jiang Xian quickly took a look at the city tower.

There is no difference between the tower and the tower on the Great Wall, the only difference is that in one corner, there is a pile of bones scattered around.

They had almost decomposed, and all that remained was a pile of bones. The skeletons were scattered messily on the ground, emitting a faint silver glow. In its hand, it holds a cap in the shape of a square bottle.

"Let go." At this moment, Chu Ziyi spoke hoarsely, Jiang Xian immediately retracted his gaze, and helped the other party to lean against the wall, Chu Ziyi's body was as if he had lost his strength, and he had no strength at all.

"Do you want more?" Hong Siniang raised her chin towards the broken leg. Chu Ziyi seemed to want to laugh, but in the end he shook his head dejectedly: "Stay here." ”

"At least tell the latecomers that the master has been here......" His words were a little gritted: "The master is the one who can come here in the Qin Emperor's Mausoleum!" It's not the turn of others to laugh yet! ”

After saying that, he raised his head and looked at the top of the tower with great interest. After a long time, he said: "It's old......"

No one spoke. The sound of arrows tearing through the sky was heard in the air, and the castle tower was as heavy as a refuge. After a long time, Jiang Xian gently patted the other party's shoulder. Softly said, "What next?" ”

Chu Ziyi didn't seem to hear it, and looked straight at the top of the city tower. After ten seconds, he lowered his head: "Let me be here." ”

"It's fine." The eight-armed Arhat sighed: "We will find the exit as soon as possible, you ...... Hold on. ”

Chu Ziyi suddenly sneered, and said hoarsely: "From ...... From the day he went down to the ground, everyone knew it...... Maybe...... Maybe there will be today. I can't make a rabbit die and a fox ...... sad."

He raised his head and looked at Jiang Xian faintly: "Mr. Jiang, please." ”

Jiang Xian nodded deeply. He knew that Chu Ziyi was talking about the agreement between the two.

After getting another affirmation, Chu Ziyi finally smiled with relief: "I can't follow you anymore, but...... Maybe in the end, I can do you a small favor. I'm sorry for you...... Handful...... Pull the corpse over. ”

Following his gaze, everyone saw that after the mercury retreated, where Jiang Xian saw the backpack before, there was a corpse lying underneath!

A modern human corpse!

Wearing a camouflage uniform and carrying a backpack. His pickaxe spread out and stuck right at the entrance to the tower, which prevented Mercury from rushing him down - it didn't matter who he was, what mattered, it meant ...... Someone else had been here before them!

Taking advantage of the time when the arrow rain stopped, the eight-armed Arhat grabbed the mountaineering rope, and several people pulled each other into the doorway.

This is the corpse of a Chinese man.

Very thin, not tall, at most about one meter six or five. He had apparently died of mercury as well, his muscles had taken on a stiff solidification, and his face was almost rotten, revealing large swaths of pitch-black bone, and his eyes had shrunk like shriveled rags.

"That's not right." Jiang Xian frowned after just looking at it: "The bones are black, this is obviously a death from inhaling a large amount of mercury." But if that's the case, the corpse is a little too decomposed. ”

Ling Xiaozi said thoughtfully: "Those mercury corpses on the Great Wall, not to mention all of them are lifelike, but after a thousand years, they are at least skinny and bone...... The corpse was too decomposed. ”

"Because it's a different way of dying." Chu Ziyi closed his eyes, bleeding heavily was too much for an old man of his age. Hong Siniang was helping him with bandaging on the side, and he said hoarsely: "There are mercury corpses on the Great Wall, which means that when this tomb was built, the mechanism was activated once. Testing, perhaps...... The people who tested it were the people. This is the first time that the organ has been activated. ”

"They were poured alive with mercury." He opened his dim eyes, and his voice did not rise or fall: "A large amount of mercury causes the corpse to not decay for thousands of years. But this man ......"

He pointed to the man in the rucksack: "He's trapped to death." ”

Jiang Xian rubbed his chin and said thoughtfully: "He didn't have much mercury in his body, and he died of mercury poisoning?" ”

Chu Ziyi nodded tiredly: "Yes." But...... Why is he here? ”

Ling Xiaozi raised his eyebrows and said, "He wants to go out?" I saw a door on the opposite side, so I naturally walked that way......"

Before he could finish speaking, he suddenly stopped. It wasn't just him, everyone's eyes lit up. Qi Qi looked at the corpse.

"That's not right!" The eight-armed Arhat squinted his eyes and spoke. Before he could finish speaking, she said in a deep voice: "He can't see the door of the Water Galaxy!" ”

"He died under the water galaxy. However, the water galaxy is blocked at both ends of the front and back. At that time, a large amount of mercury will be poured to the bottom, and he will not see where the door is at all!

That...... Why did he come in at such a great risk?

Jiang Xian didn't speak, but pulled the other party's chest open. Right there, a strangely shaped necklace was draped around each other's necks.

The necklace is already jet black, and the material is not visible. In the center, there is a metal book the size of a small fingernail. When the writing is opened, it is densely engraved with many characters, and the workmanship is so fine that it can be called a work of art.

"Rush to the void!" The moment he saw his hand, Chu Ziyi and Ling Xiaozi exclaimed at the same time: "The heir of the mantle of 'Chongxu' in the three gates of Kanyu!" ”

Jiang Xian looked at the necklace deeply, Chong Xu, like Lan Shanhai, ranked among the top three gates, and his overall strength was only stronger than Lan Shanhai, which was a single line. Heirs of the mantle...... is basically determined to be the next leader, but he died here?

But now is not the time to talk about that. He gently lifted the necklace and said in a deep voice: "Such a person will not find that he came out of the trench when he walks over." It's so close that you can see the sculpture on it more clearly. ”

Then, he should also know that if he walked like this, his back would be completely exposed under the trench. This is a big no-no. And, he didn't bring anything to dodge. But even so, he insisted on moving forward......"

He looked at everyone: "Here, there may be a temptation that he has to come." ”

At this moment, Chu Ziyi tried to raise his hand and pointed to the corpse's forearm: "His forearm is ...... Something hidden. ”

Jiang Xian immediately stripped off the other party's clothes, and as soon as he pulled his arm apart, a blackened iron weapon immediately exposed his head. Then it fell to the ground with a thud.

"This is ......" Everyone was stunned, and then immediately looked at the skeleton in the corner. This thing...... It's almost exactly the same as the wine bottle in the bone's hand!

It's about a foot long. It is square in shape. The shape is very similar to the famous national treasure - the Sifang Sheep Bottle. It's just that instead of four sheep on it, there are four symbols. It can be clearly identified as metal, wood, water, fire, and earth.

The whole body is black, and the workmanship is extremely exquisite. But...... Its mouth was sealed with a piece of bronze. The stitching process is crude, and there are obvious signs of reprocessing. Seems...... It's just to seal the vessel. I don't care if it's beautiful or not.

"For this?" Jiang Xian put on his gloves and prepared to grab the wine bottle. However, when I grabbed it, I couldn't even lift it!

Heavy.

It was unbelievably heavier, as if it were a piece of pure metal inside. And, after Jiang Xian picked it up vigorously, he could clearly feel that it was in the square bottle...... There is something.

It was something that was liquid and the contents were sliding extremely slowly as the shape of the bottle changed. And I couldn't hear a single sound.

"Very viscous ......" Jiang Xian put it on the ground. He raised his chin towards Ling Xiaozi. The latter smelled the fragrance and knew the elegance, and pulled and scratched on the dust, and the cold light flashed, and the iron piece at the mouth of the wine bottle was gone.

Hong Siniang carefully put on her gloves and tilted the square bottle. After a few seconds, a silver thread slowly flowed out.

"Mercury?" Jiang Xian was stunned and looked at the more and more silver-white liquid that was accumulating, and his brows were already locked: "The weight doesn't match." And...... Why did they bring mercury out? ”

"All the people here have participated in the construction of this mausoleum, and they will not be surprised by mercury. Why bring it out in particular? ”

Chu Ziyi said hoarsely: "It is indeed mercury." But it's not pure mercury. ”

"It's amalgam."

In a word, everyone nodded knowingly.

Chu Ziyi continued: "Mercury...... Can be with most ...... Ahem...... Metals undergo chemical reactions. Particularly...... Especially gold and silver, mercury can ...... Magically 'swallow' them directly. Call...... And the volume is several ...... Unchanged. It's just an increase in weight density. ”

"It's called ...... Mercury swallows gold. Gold and mercury ...... Whew...... Mixing, it's called gold amalgamation. Moreover, the gold that has been swallowed by mercury can still ...... Call...... It is chemically reduced again. ”

And it's very simple – it's just distillation. As the saying goes, "real gold is not afraid of fire", it also originally came from here.

Ling Xiaozi's eyes rolled: "You mean, what they are holding are two jars of gold?" ”

Chu Ziyi nodded.

Ling Xiaozi smiled, his sleeves flipped over, and the remaining square bottle magically disappeared without a trace. He smiled like a spring flower: "This thing has a fate with the poor road......

"No one is robbing you." Jiang Xian didn't stop it, but narrowed his eyes and said, "Ling Xiaozi, let me ask you a question. ”

"That's right."

Jiang Xian squatted down, put on gloves, carefully rummaged through the corpse, and said, "If you are trapped here, there is a random thing as heavy as gold by your side. It's worth countless times more than that. And at this moment, behind you is a large array of tens of thousands of Qin crossbows. Ahead is the Great Wall of Mercury Corpses. Would you venture over and get a pot of gold? ”

Ling Xiaozi blinked: "It depends on how many fates are left in the poor road......

"Speak human words!"

“…… No! ”

Jiang Xianjian had already touched the hand of the corpse, and then asked: "Then why bother to get a jar of gold?" ”

Chu Ziyi finally smiled: "Because, this person came out of it, maybe ...... What was in it that reminded him of this jar? This jar ...... It's about whether he can solve the next puzzle, or...... Can I get out? ”

Jiang Xian turned the corpse's hand over and nodded: "I suddenly remembered something. ”

Right in the center of the corpse's palm, there was a distinct eye pattern carved with a knife!
