Chapter 20: The Great Hall

"What is this?" As soon as Bai Ye wanted to open it, he was stopped by Mo Tianya.

"Take it, I don't know what will happen after you go down, I can save your life at a critical time!"

This night, Mo Tianya didn't let Bai Ye practice, so the two sat facing each other and stayed all night.

As we approach the first challenge of this trip, everyone's hearts are a little heavy. He Tao was a little excited, it is estimated that this is the first expedition in his life!

"Brother Dong, do we have any big plans for going down today? Wouldn't it just be like I said last night and just go and come out? ”

He Tao seemed to have endless questions along the way, and Brother Dong probably didn't want to spoil everyone's interest, but also to estimate He Tao's curiosity, and he was also very patient to answer them one by one.

When several people came to the place where they had marked it yesterday, the cave was still pitch black, and there was no response when the flashlight was lit.

Everyone already knew what to do next, and there was no need to discuss, He Chaoqun quickly took out a mountaineering rope, tied one around the waist of the big tree next to him, and threw the rest into the cave.

The nylon climbing rope used by this professional archaeological team is extremely durable, not only very durable, but also particularly strong.

Mo Tianya, who started the head, was very tacit, and almost at the same time tied the other end of the rope to a knot around his waist, made a fixed pulley for himself, and prepared to go down the hole.

"Wait, Tianya." Uncle Dong stopped Mo Tianya, and then took out a red rope and fixed one end on Mo Tianya's waist, and then Bai Ye, Uncle Dong, Song Zisu, He Chaoqun and He Tao tied it one after another.

"In case of an accident, we don't have to be separated." After Dong Ge finished these preparations, he returned to the team, and everyone took their things and began to go down the cave.

The first one to go down was Mo Tianya, who had listened to Uncle Dong's advice once before, this time Mo Tianya did not invoke the true qi to protect his body, and relied on his body to directly lower the low temperature. I like everyone to come prepared, and they all change into thicker clothes.

As soon as he arrived in the cave, Mo Tianya raised a flashlight and looked around, except for the darkness, there was nothing abnormal, so he gently shook the rope and reminded everyone to come down.

The entrance to the cave is very small, and several men are fine, either practicing martial arts or working in the field all year round, but it is difficult for Song Zisu, a little girl followed a group of old men to climb the mountain and enter the cave.

After tossing for a while, everyone finally came down, and when He Tao came down, he threw his golden hoop stick down, almost hitting Brother Dong and being scolded!

"I can really hear it this time." Mo Tianya carefully compared the state of this time and the last time, although there was no true qi body, he did obviously feel that the temperature was lower, but the feeling of powerlessness was much less.

After coming down, Brother Dong took the compass and looked at it for a long time before determining the direction, and everyone held the rope on their bodies and followed Brother Dong's footsteps. After a while, a bright light suddenly appeared in the originally dark cave, and everyone seemed to see hope, and moved towards the bright light, and at the end, it was actually a large hall!

Walking to the temple, everyone sighed at the magic of this cave!

Although this hall is located in the interior of the mountain, there is no lighting equipment in it, but it is still full of light, and the reason for this is that the top of the entire hall leads to the lake at the top of the mountain! And at this time, on the ceiling of the place where Bai Ye and his party were, there was a corpse, which was the bottom of the lake on the top of the mountain!

"OMG! How is this done? Hollowed out the mountain to create a big hole, and built a lake on the top of the hole! After He Chaoqun arrived, he was immediately stunned by this majestic and magnificent scene.

The crowd rummaged around for the contents of the cave, which seemed to be old antiquities, and even some of the clothes had been corroded. He Chaoqun looked at the furnishings here, it looked like an ancient tomb, and the things in it were too similar to the burial goods in the tomb he had found in the archaeological discovery before, but he couldn't see that there was no coffin and no tomb!

Brother Dong circled around the main hall, and when he came to He Chaoqun's side, he asked, "Chaoqun, do you think this place is too similar?" ”

He Chaoqun nodded, indeed, from any point of view, this is a very standard aristocratic tomb, whether it is a burial object or a scale, it is only the nobles of the family who have the ability to build.

But what can't be said is that there is no coffin of the owner of the tomb!

At this time, He Tao said: "It's really weird here, there are so many valuable things on display, no one wants them!" It can't be that you don't usually come here and forget to put it here, right? ”

Forgot to put it here?

This sentence instantly reminded Uncle Dong, after all, he can build a tomb for himself based on an entire mountain, and at the same time set up five elements and eight monsters to prevent theft by outsiders, I am afraid that the strength of the living after death is not ordinary!

Thinking of this, Brother Dong quickly informed everyone of his thoughts: "Let's look and see, is there any other way out of this hall besides the place where we came in!" Maybe there's more to this place than one floor. ”

At the sound of the order, everyone scattered and began to search in the hall.

But Shiraba discovers something new at this time: runes!

And it's the kind that is very similar to the one on my own bell! After seeing it once in the dry well of the deserted village at the foot of the mountain, and once in the ancestral hall, this is the third time I have met it! Bai Ye faintly felt that these mysterious runes were inextricably related to the exercises he practiced, and his grandfather also said that he was important and the key to success! 、

In this case, exploring the deep meaning behind the runes is also the purpose of Bai Ye's trip!

After thinking clearly, Bai Ye called Mo Tianya.

"Tianya, the meaning of this rune is very important to me! I'll pour spiritual power into the bell in a while, ring the bell and try to see if it will have a connection with these runes, and you are watching me. ”

Mo Tianya nodded, then stepped aside and looked at Bai Ye.

Bai Ye took out the bell, concentrated on pouring spiritual power into it, and then shook the bell, and suddenly the crisp and long sound of the bell echoed in the hall, I don't know whether it was the echo or the resonance of the bell, and the sounds that sounded in the hall came and went. At this time, in front of Mo Tianya's eyes, the runes on the stone wall actually glowed!

"As I expected!"

Bai Ye saw that it had an effect, so he simply waved his hand and directly hit the spiritual power into the rune on the wall, and in an instant, the wall in front of Bai Ye's eyes began to move back slowly, and a passage appeared in front of him.

When everyone heard the movement here, they all gathered together.

"I'll go! Xiao Ye, how did you discover this secret passage! When He Tao saw this secret door open, he was even more convinced that this was an adventurous challenge! I was so excited that I wanted to jump off the spot! It was Song Zisu who stopped it in time.

"Brother Dong, are we going down now?" Song Zisu looked at Brother Dong and asked.

Everyone looked at the passage in front of them, on both sides of which were about one person's width dug directly between the mountains, and the passage was composed of a row of stone stairs, leading to the bottom.

I've already come here, since the entrance of the cave has been covered with the technique of Qimen Dunjia, I can't go back the way I came, I'm afraid that only by finding the secret here first and solving it can I get free!

"Let's go!" Dong Ge said categorically.
