Chapter 120: Strange Dreams

Ying Zheng and the craftsmen were startled by the sudden noise, and they all retreated, and the last two were directly squeezed to the ground.

Although the torches in everyone's hands stopped beating, they blew in front of them, and it seemed that a strong air flow was blowing from the stone door.

However, everyone did not move, and all maintained their original positions, but took the torches away to keep the flames as far away from the crowd as possible.

At this moment, I heard a rattle, and the stone door in front of me closed again.

The white flames stopped fluttering and settled down.

What's the situation?

All the craftsmen looked at Ying Zheng, waiting for Ying Zheng to make an idea.

Ying Zheng looked at Li Si and asked for help.

"You retreat first to the stone gate where you came." Li Si said, "Your Majesty, you come with Weichen. ”

Ying Zheng nodded, and motioned for the craftsmen to retreat to the stone gate where they arrived.

"Your Majesty, if nothing else, the inside of this stone gate should be the last secret room." Li Si whispered.

"No wonder it's different." Ying Zheng said, "How can I turn it on normally?" ”

Li Si frowned slightly, and said, "Do you remember the stone gate that we first entered on the fourth floor?" ”

"Yes." Ying Zheng bowed his head and said, "That big stone gate also emitted a lot of poisonous smoke, and this door in front of me won't emit any poisonous smoke, right?" ”

"Probably not." Li Si said, "After all, the people who can get here are definitely not mortals, presumably the predecessors will not poison their successors." ”

"That's right." Ying Zheng nodded and asked, "Then how should I get in?" ”

"Wei Chen thinks that the way to enter should be similar to the first big stone gate." Lees said.

"Sir is saying that you still need a bloody handprint from the widow?" Ying Zheng looked down at his thumb and couldn't help but feel a little pain.

Li Si looked at the stone gate and said, "Maybe, let's look for it first." ”

Ying Zheng nodded firmly, and followed Li Si to the stone gate.

However, the two of them searched for a long time, but they couldn't find a place similar to a crystal surface where they could press blood handprints, and they didn't even find a small stone that could move.

"Isn't that the way it is?" Ying Zheng muttered.

"It should be this way." Li Si said with certainty, "Perhaps, that mechanism is not on the stone gate." ”

The previous crystal plane mechanism was not on the stone gate, but behind the stone lion.

In addition to this stone gate, there are three stone gates.

Ying Zheng and Li Si investigated the other three stone gates very intently.

However, nothing was found.

Ying Zheng was a little deflated, exhaled lightly, and wiped the beads of sweat from his forehead.

"Your Majesty, sit down and rest on the edge of the stone platform." Li Si pointed to the stone platform in the middle.

Wait a minute......

Stone?

Ying Zheng and Li Si looked at the stone platform in the center in unison.

There was nothing in the stone platform of this secret room, so Li Si didn't look closely.

Ying Zheng and Li Si walked to the stone platform together, squatted down, held the stone edge with their hands, and looked inside.

The light was a little dim, and Li Si lit his torch, and after the white firelight reflected on the inside of the stone platform, he could see the inside clearly.

Sure enough, in the very center of the bottom of the stone platform, there is a circular protrusion, and the surface is smoother than the rest of the place, because the light is dark, and if you don't look closely, you can't see it at all.

"Your Majesty, this should be the place." Li Si said happily.

Ying Zheng also felt that it should be here, but still joked: "Is it really here? Sir, you have to make sure that if the widow's blood is drained and not found, we will all be trapped here. ”

Lis: "......"

Ying Zheng took out the dagger he had with him

First, cut his finger and pressed his thumb against the slightly raised crystal face.

Although he didn't feel any pain, Ying Zheng felt the blood on his fingers and Xiang was sucked. As allowed, it flowed from his fingers until it completely covered the raised crystal plane.

What's even more amazing is that after covering the crystal plane, not a single drop of excess blood flowed onto the stone platform next to it. And Ying Zheng's fingers no longer bleed.

Ying Zheng didn't move, and after standing for a few breaths, he picked up his fingers.

Looking at the crystal face covered with blood, a blood fingerprint of Ying Zheng was clearly imprinted on the surface of the blood, and the blood had dried up and seemed to have absorbed water by the crystal plane.

At this moment, only a crunch was heard, and the stone door in front of me opened again.

And this time, in the cracks of the stone door that gradually opened, it was no longer dark, but a pale blue brilliance that was different from other secret rooms, and in this confined space, it seemed illusory.

"It's done!" Jing Fan shouted excitedly.

"Yes, it seems that the secret room in front of you is different from the past." Tian Yi also said.

Ying Zheng also breathed a sigh of relief, wiped the blood stains on his hands with the cotton silk he carried, and then wrapped his fingers to prevent further bleeding.

Instead of extinguishing the torch, Lees approached the stone door with his torch held high, and then extended the torch into the stone door.

After a few jumps, the torch returned to normal and did not beat violently again.

But little by little, the color of the flame changed to pink, and then darker, and then to red.

It seems that the color of the flame has returned to normal, but in fact, the color of the flame is even richer than normal, and it is a pure red color similar to blood.

The craftsmen also gathered around and performed the same operation.

All the torches turned a pure red color, as if burning blood was quietly releasing its own brilliance.

The stone door was fully opened, and the scene in front of me was finally fully revealed.

In front appears to be a corridor the size of a chamber.

Leos held the torch high and walked into the corridor first.

Ying Zheng also followed, and all the craftsmen were still surrounding Ying Zheng.

Entering the corridor, the temperature seemed to drop a little, and the air seemed to be much drier, and everyone couldn't help but feel refreshed.

When you come to the end of the corridor, there is a row of stone steps in front of you, and you can't see how deep it is.

Li Si still walked in front, but his demeanor and movements were much more vigilant than before.

The stone steps under your feet seem to be made of dense stones, faintly emitting a faint blue light, like jade, although it is old, but you can't see a trace of dust, like a fantasy.

After about forty stone steps down, I finally reached the ground at the bottom.

Instead of rushing forward, Liss held his torch and took a closer look at both sides of the wall.

"Your Majesty, look at both sides of this wall, there should be a stone gate here, and it has just been opened." Li Si said as he touched the tiny cracks in the wall.

"Did it open with the stone door just now?" Ying Zheng asked in a low voice.

"Perhaps." Li Si walked back to Ying Zheng's side and said, "If we had entered that stone gate directly just now, we would have been blocked here. ”

Ying Zheng nodded, and then asked, "What else have you discovered?" ”

Li Si looked at the stone wall above again and said, "I haven't found anything else for the time being, but this should be the entrance to the last dense stone." ”

"Then move on." Ying Zheng pointed to the front and said.

Everyone looked ahead, and it seemed that there was a corner in front of them, and some richer blue light reflected on the right.

Li Si nodded and said to Jing Fan, "You take care of the king." Then he raised his torch and walked forward.

Jing Fan stood in front of Ying Zheng, and the craftsmen of the Jing family class also surrounded Ying Zheng and walked forward

Enter.

At that corner, a larger dense stone finally appeared in front of everyone's eyes, and the blue light reflected on the wall was indeed even richer.

The flames on the torches were restless again, but unlike before, this time it was more like dancing merrily.

Perhaps driven by these flames, everyone's mood has also relaxed, and the atmosphere is a little less nervous.

Li Si continued to walk forward, and a half-human-high stone tripod appeared in front of him, and the position placed was in the middle of this dense stone.

It seems that this stone tripod has replaced the previous stone platforms.

Li Si walked unhurriedly to the front of Shi Ding and looked inside.

Inside was a large bronze box, as well as three small stone tripods.

Li Si looked around, then extinguished the torch he was holding, and then reached out and took out the bronze box.

Ying Zheng stepped forward, took the bronze box, and gently placed it on the ground.

But just as Yingzheng stretched out his hand to the black iron snail, he heard a muffled sound behind him.

Click, boom......

Li Si hurriedly blocked in front of Ying Zheng, grabbed Ying Zheng, and squatted down.

The craftsmen also leaned down and walked quickly to Yingzheng's side in a half-squat.

Everyone looked to the location where the voice had come from, only to see what seemed to be a gap there.

"It seems that it was Wei Chen who took out this bronze box and touched something." Lees said.

"It's not supposed to be a defensive organ." Ying Zheng looked at the gap and said, "But what's going on with this gap?" ”

"Presumably a passage to the next floor." Li Si said in a low voice, "It is said that there is only one entrance to the fifth layer of the royal tomb, and it is inside the ultimate secret stone of the fourth layer. ”

"I see." After listening to Li Si's explanation, Yingzheng relaxed.

Li Si stood up and went to check the mechanism in the stone tripod, but saw that there was a letter at the bottom of the stone tripod, Li Si took out the letter and the three small stone tripods, and checked it again, but found no mechanism.

Ying Zheng took out the black iron snail and opened the bronze box.

In the bronze box is a bronze book, but unlike the previous ones, this bronze book is bright red, very similar to the color of a torch.

Flipping the red bronze book over, Ying Zheng opened it with a dark iron snail.

The inside page of the red cover has only two oracle bone inscriptions - "Jiuding".

Ying Zheng rubbed his fingers against these two words that only he could understand, unconsciously breathed a long sigh of relief, and said abruptly: "This is the secret book of Jiuding." ”

Although the craftsmen had already guessed, everyone's faces were full of joy.

"Your Majesty, there is another letter here." Li Si took the letter and Xiao Shiding and came to Yingzheng's side.

Ying Zheng took the letter and the three small stone tripods.

The nine small stone tripods were also gathered, and Ying Zheng handed over the three he had just found to Jing Fan, and then opened the letter to read.

It is still a letter from an old man in white, although it is short, but the content is very clear.

The gap that caused the noise was really the only entrance to the fifth floor.

This red bronze book not only records the preparation method of Jiuding, but also marks the shape and method of use of Tianmu, as well as the information and patterns of the nine guardian beasts.

And the stone tripod in the middle was indeed made of dense stone, and its real purpose was actually to refine the Linggu Pill!

And the unilateral side of the ordinary Linggu Dan was sandwiched in this letter.

This time the harvest is really not small.

Seeing that Ying Zheng had finished reading the letter, Li Si wanted to go to the gap to find out, but at the moment he got up.

Suddenly, a red glow appeared on the surrounding walls.

The appearance of Jiuding appeared on the wall, although it was composed of red light, but it was like a substance, and it was like a real Jiuding embedded in the stone walls on all four sides.
