In the archaeological team that returned from Banai, Xie Jiuye's people had taken the opportunity to infiltrate the organization and destroyed the relevant materials in large quantities, while gradually replacing some key figures such as Chen Wenjin and Huo Ling.

Before 1984, Huo Ling, who returned to the Huo family, was the "Huo Ling" under Xie Jiuye.

Although it is not clear how Xie Jiuye dealt with Chen Wenjin and them (it is very likely that he was sent to the Golmud Sanatorium, only then did he meet the imprisoned little brother, and then cooperated with Xie Jiuye to rescue the little brother), but before entering Xisha, the real Huo Ling and Wen Jin used a forged letter of transfer to deceive the fake Huo Ling Wenjin to Changbai Mountain.

Later, when they were exploring the submarine tomb, they were found to be abnormal, and they directly took it for immortality testing, and then locked up in the Golmud Sanatorium.

These are the clues and conclusions that Zhang Qixun came to by understanding the original plot and analyzing it.

He didn't intend to hide it from his little brother, and told him all these inferences, maybe there were some mistakes in the details, but they were very different.

He couldn't tell Wu Xiaoxie and the two of them these clues orally, so he could only leave a message to the two of them through paper methods, but when facing the little brother, he didn't have these evasions.

The little brother has personally experienced these, although his memory is incomplete, but his basic judgment ability is still very strong, and these provided by Zhang Qixun can help him connect the memory fragments.

When Zhang Qixun analyzed, the little brother didn't say right, nor did he say wrong, he just listened very quietly, and only then did he look at Zhang Qixun, his eyes paused on his right cheek for a moment, and then spoke, "Are you looking for him?" ”

Zhang Qixun was stunned for a moment, and realized that the "he" that the little brother said was Zhang Menyu who left the fire mark, so he nodded, "I did come to him at the beginning, but later I found that the situation was more complicated than I imagined, and I had to continue to complete those things that he didn't finish." ”

As he spoke, he couldn't help laughing, "Old Lady Huo said that he once appeared under Zhang Qishan, maybe you two have met." ”

"Perhaps." The little brother also smiled lightly.

The two of them continued to move forward, walking for about a kilometer, and a faint luster suddenly appeared on the stone wall in front of them, not the bright light of a flashlight or the sun's rays, but a soft cyan warm light like fluorite warm jade.

The little brother stretched out his hand and stuck to the stone wall, took two steps forward, and turned to look at the stone wall when they came, thoughtful.

Zhang Qixun pulled out the dagger and poked it this stone wall, the tip of the dagger only knocked out a very shallow white dot on it, he turned on the flashlight to the brightest brightest, and pressed it against the stone wall to shine inside, and found that there was a thin layer of ore between the glowing jade vein and the outside.

He spoke softly, "This kind of stone seems to be a little different from what we've seen in the Milota cave before. ”

The stone wall in front of him was closer to the stone than the jade veins that Milota could shuttle, and it was harder, almost the same as the surrounding stones.

And this thing suddenly appeared here, could it be that between this mountain, when Huo Xiangu and the others passed through, Milota had already followed them with the perception of the heat source?

Then why didn't Milota drill out from the wall to attack Huo Xiangu and them, he didn't think that this thin stone wall could block Milota's attack.

Thinking of the strange and intelligent black-haired snake in Milota's body, Zhang Qixun took a light breath, and he suddenly had an ominous premonition.

At the beginning of the snake swamp, the pheasant neck they encountered was like an ant colony with a certain social hierarchy, and the ordinary pheasant neck was the lowest level of worker ants, and there were many of them.

The two golden-scaled pythons they met in the jungle were male snakes, in fact, they were also pheasant necks, and the pythons they encountered in the underground shafts were the same male snakes as them after molting, they were large and small in number, and were responsible for mating with the snake mother with the help of pheasant necks and breeding offspring.

The Mother Snake underneath the Queen Mother's palace in the West is the "queen" of the entire group of snakes, and is the only one.

If these Milota also have a certain hierarchy under the control of the black-haired snake, then behind them, is there also a supreme ruling existence equivalent to the "snake mother".

If this is the case, then it is very likely that the Milota who is following Huo Xiangu in the stone wall at the moment is under the command of the high-level Milota, and is chasing and even driving away the prey through the jade vein, so as to facilitate the hunting and killing of the high-level Milota.

The stone wall under his hand was still that warm and cold touch, Zhang Qixun's back involuntarily swelled with a chill, he raised his eyes to look at the little brother, but saw that the little brother's face also changed.

"Let's go." The little brother left a sentence, walked forward quickly, and finally ran directly.

Zhang Qixun followed closely beside him, and both of them advanced as fast as they could.

The smell of blood grew stronger in the air, and a few sporadic gunshots could be heard.

When Zhang Qixun and the two arrived, Huo Xiangu was sitting upright on the chair, exuding the majesty of the superior, there were already three people lying in a pool of blood, and two people were kneeling in front of her, their arms hanging in an abnormal posture.

Huo Chushi, who was holding a gun, heard the slight footsteps, and immediately looked over vigilantly, and after finding that it was Zhang Qixun and the two of them, he did not let go of his vigilance.

Seeing that the change here was only man-made, the little brother slowed down, reached out and touched the stone wall, and nodded to Zhang Qixun.

Zhang Qixun smiled at the vigilant Huo Chushi, and said lightly: "What's the matter, it's worth the old lady's anger." ”

Seeing that it was the two of them, Mrs. Huo was a little surprised, and said lightly: "I have dealt with a few things outside the inside and out." ”

Zhang Qixun made an expression of sudden realization, "Then you hurry up, let's get out of here early." ”

Huo Xiangu heard the sound of his words, and waved her hand slightly, before the two Huo family members who were kneeling could say the words of begging for mercy, after the two gunshots, the frightened expression on her face had already frozen, and there was an extra blood hole in the center of her eyebrows.

The corpse fell, and Huo Chushi directly let people drag it aside.

The Huo family in the team didn't dare to say a word, and after this, they clamped their tails more carefully.

Continuing forward, Huo Xiangu asked Zhang Qixun about their disappearance after patrolling the valley.

Zhang Qixun casually recounted it, anyway, when he went out, Huo Xiangu would definitely call someone to ask him, so there was no need to say so much detail.

Ten minutes later, there was the familiar light of the last time in front of me, the sound of gurgling water sounded in my ears, and I lifted the vines and walked out, and a cool and refreshing moist breath came to my face.

Outside the exit this time is a very beautiful waterfall, which rushes vertically down from the cliff on one side, lapping on the stone slab below, and the sound of the water vibrating, and the splashing mist is faintly visible in the sunlight, and a rainbow can be faintly seen.

The expressions of the Huo family were a little sluggish, and they almost wrote the suspicion of life on their faces in large letters.

Seeing this scene, Huo Xiangu sighed softly, walked to a clean stone slab and sat down, thinking carefully about what had gone wrong along the way.

Obviously, the steps are exactly the same as the last time, why is there such an unbelievable situation.

She looked at the little brother and hesitated to say her conjecture, "Could it be that there is some mechanism in that stone path that has created an illusion for us and made us unconsciously go down the wrong path." ”

The little brother shook his head, "There is no mechanism." ”

Huo Xiangu didn't believe it, she still thought that they might have inadvertently touched some kind of mechanism, causing the tomb to move, but in fact, there were some things that could not be said.

If you want to move the entire tomb, the mechanism that needs to be set up cannot be described as huge, but the real removal of mountains and reclamation, she doesn't think that human beings can have such inhuman abilities, even if it is the Zhang family, who once had great powers.

So, what's the problem?

Huo Xiangu took out the photos of the three sealing stone codes from her arms, and looked at them carefully one by one, there was no problem with the first two sealing stones, so the problem must be with the third sealing stone.

"The Zhang family has gone to great lengths to set up a thousand miles of locks, which must be more than just a simple matter of letting us open a door." Huo Xiangu's tone was slightly dark, "This is not logical, so there must be something wrong with the third sealing door." ”

"You're trying to say that as soon as the third door opens, we enter into an illusion? Or is the third door a mechanism? Zhang Qixun did not deny Huo Xiangu's speculation.

"That's right, let's go back and try again, this time send someone to tie the rope, if it's an illusion, then the people outside the door will definitely notice it." Huo Xiangu said.

Zhang Qixun chuckled, "Then have you ever thought about what to do if we go in again this time and we can't get out." ”

Huo Xiangu's face changed, "If you can't get out, it means that we have entered the Zhangjia Ancient Building." ”

Zhang Qixun spread his hands, "Then please do it." Then he walked over to the little brother and sat down, took out two pieces of candy from his pocket, and stuffed one into the little brother.

Huo Xiangu stared at him suspiciously, and his mind suddenly flashed the actions of the two of them when they appeared before, and he tentatively spoke, "You guys, have you found something inside the stone path?" ”

"I did find something." Zhang Qixun deliberately sold a pass, raised his chin to the place where there were fewer people on the other side, got up and walked over.

Huo Xiangu glanced at Huo Zhizhi, and then asked Huo Xiuxiu to help her walk to the other side of the waterfall, Huo Chushi and they stood up neatly, separating Zhang Qixun and her from those Huo family members.

"Let's talk about it now." There was a hint of urgency in Huo Xiangu's eyes.

Zhang Qixun said unhurriedly: "Do you think that the Zhang family is a benevolent family?" ”

"What do you mean?" Huo Xiangu frowned.

"Don't you think it's strange why we can get out of here twice unscathed." Zhang Jixun continued to remind her, "Except that I have only received a few warnings that are not painful. ”

Huo Xiangu already understood the meaning of his words, but she still insisted that this could not be a scam, Zhangjia Gulou must be in Banai, and Style Lei would not make a mistake.

Seeing that she was so stubborn, Zhang Qi could only helplessly say: "There will be no mistake at the entrance, what is wrong is the way we enter, the reason why we can still breathe fresh air here leisurely, is just that the Zhang family has set up a fault-tolerant mechanism to protect future generations to avoid manslaughter of future generations, after all, in the process of transmitting information, no one can guarantee foolproof." ”

"At the same time as opening the third door, we have already touched the mechanism in the stone passage, so that the passage that originally led to the Zhangjia Ancient Building turned to another way."

The wrong mechanism was activated, and the movement of Milota caused changes in the mountain at the same time, which is the mystery of the mechanism set up by the Zhang family.

Huo Xiangu thought for two seconds, but still denied: "If this is the case, the existence of this organ has no meaning, everyone can keep trying, even if they are wrong, there will be no danger." ”

Zhang Qixun looked at her coldly, "Do you think the Zhang family will tolerate an outsider jumping on their ancestral grave three times in a row?" ”

Huo Xiangu was also a little angry, "Since the stone gate is opened, it proves that the password is not wrong, since you said that there is a limit to the number of times, then we will return the same way this time, and we will not enter through the main gate, and we will always be able to find the places that we have ignored." ”

After saying that, he directly asked Huo Xiuxiu to turn around and leave.

Looking at her resolute and heavy back, Zhang Qixun understood her lonely bet, she had no choice, and all the people in the game had no choice, this was the established fate.

Huo Xiangu directly announced that after resting for a while, everyone would return the same way from the place where they had just come out, and carefully inspect it inch by inch in the stone path.

As soon as these words came out, the Huo family had different expressions on their faces, some were looking at Huo Xiangu, and some were looking at Zhang Qi looking for them, trying to estimate the significance of the conversation between the two parties.

After a stick of incense, the team regrouped and returned to the passage.

All the process was almost the same as before, only this time it was more focused, and everyone was looking for the stone wall inch by inch, trying to find the point that they had overlooked.

But this time, they found that the exit seemed to be unusually long.

They had thought that they would return to the cave of the camp in vain at most, but this time they walked more than three times longer than before, and still did not find the exit.

They seem to be stuck in a labyrinth with no end in sight.

The faces of the people were all panicked, and they knocked on the stone wall to find a flaw from above.

Huo Xiangu ordered with a calm face, "Go back, turn back." ”

Everyone hurriedly turned back, and the team was almost chaotic.

However, when they had run enough distance, they found that the passage had changed again.

The few corpses that had been left here before were gone, not to mention the bullet casings on the ground, and there was not even a trace of blood left.

Someone finally couldn't hold on and collapsed, "What the hell is going on?" Who the is standing up! ”

The other person was also very upset, and said angrily: "What the fuck are you yelling at me, I didn't do it." ”

"Why didn't I yell at you?" The man immediately scolded back.

The bomb's flame line finally burned to the end, detonating with a bang, and all kinds of vulgar and obscenities filled the entire cavern.

The lights and shadows flickered, I don't know who made the first move, and the first time you pushed me quickly changed from a verbal quarrel to a group fight, and all classes fought together.

Outside the battle circle, Huo Xiangu was protected by her henchmen, looking at the mess over there indifferently, without a trace of extra emotion in her eyes.

Good night maca baka~
