Chapter 213: Ready to Go
Qiao Qixin took the key and followed Liu Zhan to the small vault of the legendary Dali Temple.
She watched as Liu Zhan tossed around from under a piece of turf, and then turned over a large piece of turf. Z.br>
Liu Zhan patted the ash on his hand, and turned sideways to let Qiao Qixin see a hole that he had pulled out.
Qiao Qixin looked at the hole, and the expression on her face was disgusted and weird, "This is the vault of Dali Temple down here?"
Liu Zhan nodded and explained, "There was still a lot of money in the treasury before, but it became more and more ruined later, so that's it."
"Okay." Qiao Qixin pursed her mouth, and in the spirit of chatting better than nothing, she walked into the big hole under the protection of Liu Zhan.
Under the big hole is a tunnel, quite deep and steep, if it wasn't for being dragged by Liu Zhan, maybe Qiao Qixin would have rolled down at this time.
"It's so hard to leave, is it so troublesome to get money?" Qiao Qixin leaned back to prevent herself from falling, and complained in her mouth.
Liu Zhan tugged on the back collar of Qiao Qixin and explained, "This was originally a dark cave, which was discovered when the foundation of Dali Temple was built, and it happened that the treasury was not located at that time, so it was located here."
"Oh," said George, holding on to the wall, carefully moving step by step, until she finally moved underneath.
There was a hard thing beneath her feet, and she crouched down and knocked on it with a dull sound.
"Wood? Still underground? Aren't you afraid of being eaten by bugs?" Qiao Qixin was a little puzzled.
Liu Zhan shook his head and said, "It's okay, there will be special people coming over every three days to check, and if they find the wormhole, they will be filled in time."
Georgette let out an "oh" and asked, "What about the keyhole?" Where's the hole?"
The tunnel was very small and sloping, and the light above it didn't come down much at all, and Qiao Qixin couldn't see where the keyhole was at all.
"Wait a minute, I'll look for ......" Liu Zhan squatted down, reaching out and groping on the plank.
Qiao Qixin was squeezed by him and had already stuck to the wall, but he could still feel Liu Zhan's body moving around.
She pursed her lips and didn't say anything.
"Ah, I touched it."
I don't know how long Liu Zhan fumbled for a long time, and finally shouted.
Qiao Qixin was relieved and handed the key to Liu Zhan.
Liu Zhan took the key and opened the door.
With Liu Zhan's movements, Qiao Qixin only felt that the plank under her feet gradually tilted......
"Huh?!" Qiao Qixin hurriedly grabbed Liu Zhan, afraid that she would fall down.
Seeing this, Liu Zhan put his arm around Qiao Qixin's waist and brought her to his side.
The bodies of the two were close to each other, and Liu Zhan made sure that Qiao Qixin did not step on the door before pulling the door open completely.
Qiao Qixin looked at the black hole below, swallowed her saliva, and said, "How do you go down?"
"Jump." Liu Zhan said.
"Huh? Isn't it?" Qiao Qixin's eyebrows flew up, and she secretly prayed that Liu Zhan was joking.
But apparently not.
Liu Zhan hugged Qiao Qixin's waist and brought her up, then came to the side of the cave and jumped in directly!
"Ahhhhh Qiao Qixin closed her eyes and screamed in fear.
"Boom—"
There was a muffled sound.
Qiao Qixin felt that she was not falling, so she opened her eyes tentatively.
It was still pitch black.
"Is this the vault? It's so dark, I can't see clearly." Qiao Qixin said.
"Hmm."
Liu Zhan's voice came from overhead.
Qiao Qixin felt like she was being held in this dark space and walked around.
"Whoa, whoa!"
Because she felt that there was an arm in the bend of her leg, that is to say, she was now in the posture of being held by a princess, so Qiao Qixin felt unaccustomed and subconsciously struggled to come down.
"Qixin, don't move." Liu Zhan said lightly, "After falling down the hole, there will be an oil lamp if you walk ten steps to the east, and if you move so violently, I will forget the distance."
Hearing this, Georgette said, "Oh
With a sigh, he stopped struggling.
In the darkness, Qiao Qixin was held in Liu Zhan's arms and walked forward slowly.
Perhaps because of the darkness, people's other senses were more acute, and Qiao Qixin seemed to be able to hear Liu Zhan's heartbeat.
The palms of the hands holding Liu Zhan's neck were a little wet, and Qiao Qixin pursed her lips, not knowing what to do for a while.
Her body stiffened, allowing Liu Zhan to hold her, walking step by step in the dark.
"That ......" Qiao Qixin's face was a little hot, "Isn't it ten steps? Why haven't you finished it yet?"
Qiao Qixin felt that Liu Zhan had been carrying herself for a long time.
Liu Zhan paused and said, "It's too dark, go slowly, otherwise you'll fall."
This excuse was a little lame, Liu Zhan's nervous Adam's apple rolled, and he was a little worried that Qiao Qixin would pierce it.
But fortunately, Qiao Qixin didn't say anything.
What Liu Zhan didn't know was that Qiao Qixin was also very nervous now, and her cheeks flushed.
Both of them were a little glad that the darkness here could prevent the other from seeing their current embarrassed and rude side.
Liu Zhan felt that Qiao Qixin's body had slipped slightly, and subconsciously turned her upside down.
Qiao Qixin was frightened by Liu Zhan's sudden action and exclaimed.
"Did it scare you? I'm sorry." Liu Zhan said in a low voice.
Qiao Qixin was a little embarrassed, "No, it's okay......
"Hmm."
Liu Zhan hugged Qiao Qixin and walked forward.
Qiao Qixin pressed her restless heart, and in order to divert her attention, she began to count the steps Liu Zhan walked.
One, two, three...... Ten.
Qiao Qixin, who counted to ten, looked up at Liu Zhan in a daze.
Because of the darkness, Liu Zhan couldn't see Qiao Qixin's puzzled eyes.
In order to solve her doubts, Qiao Qixin said, "That ......"
"Huh?" Liu Zhan was stunned for a moment
"You seem to have walked more than ten steps...... "Qiao Qixin said weakly.
In the darkness, there was silence.
After a long time, Liu Zhan coughed awkwardly.
