Chapter 0006: Enter the Ancient Tomb
Early the next morning, Yue Buqun, who was sure that there was no one behind him, turned back to the back mountain, hid the travel bag he was carrying, and began to investigate the condition of the mountain stream.
There were only a few streams in the two back mountains, and Yue Buqun easily determined the correct location - only one stream flowed out of the cave.
Yue Buqun turned to the mountain opposite the cave and observed for another day before deciding to enter the cave.
Yue Buqun put on a special water backrest, carried a waterproof package and four torches, and entered the cave.
The water only reached his chest, because Yue Buqun had planned to wade into the water from the beginning and try to avoid diving.
After all, it is pitch black in the cave tunnel, and I don't know if there will be a fork in the road, in case you dive in the wrong direction, once the airbag air is exhausted, it will be a dead end.
Yue Buqun decided that if the water depth in the cave was not as deep as the top, he would go into the cave today to check, and if the water did not reach the top, he could only hope to see if the water level had dropped to the corresponding position before the snow.
Wading through the calf-deep stream and going up obliquely, until he turned back and couldn't see the light at the entrance of the cave, Yue Buqun took off a torch he was carrying and lit it with a fire sickle, and observed the water marks on the cave wall by the light of the fire.
Now the water level is less than a foot, and the highest water mark is around three feet, that is, there is only about a quarter of the water now.
After walking for about 20 minutes, the water level, which had not changed much, began to rise slowly, but began to decline slightly.
Thirty minutes later, Yue Buqun stopped, and at this time the water level had reached the edge of the water.
Yue Buqun is about 1.75 meters tall, and the height of the water is about 1.4 meters.
Yue Buqun raised the torch and stroked it, the water surface was still about a meter to the top of the cave, and after a little hesitation, he continued to move forward.
The water slowly covered his chest, submerged his shoulders again, and then covered Yue Buqun's mouth and nose until he lost the top of his head.
Thankfully, this section of the terrain is relatively flat, and the water level has not flooded the roof of the cave.
Yue Buqun raised his hands high, holding the lit torch in one hand and the package and torch in the other, and walked under the water.
Every twenty or thirty steps, Yue Buqun had to kick out of the water to change his breath and observe whether there was a gap between the water surface in front of him and the roof of the cave.
After changing his qi eight times like this, the top of his head was exposed, and Yue Buqun was overjoyed and finally came in.
After walking a few hundred meters, he came to a huge cave in the mountain, and when he went ashore, Yue Buqun looked up, and the scattered torch light could not shine on the top of the cave, but he found a faint appearance of steps.
Yue Buqun changed into a set of dry clothes, wiped off the water traces on the outside of the package, re-carried it, and walked up the stone steps.
The steps are four feet wide, which can accommodate two people walking side by side, and it is estimated that Yang Guoxia cut them with a sharp blade.
Yue Buqun secretly said in his heart, it is indeed worthy of being sung through the ages, this gentleness and thoughtfulness is also difficult for ordinary people to reach, but it was the predecessors who planted the trees, and his descendants took advantage of the cold.
After going around and going up for two or three hundred meters, the cave became small and gentle, and soon entered a road, and after walking dozens of steps, I turned around in front of a stone gate and entered a stone room.
Yue Buqun instinctively looked up, as if he had been poured cold water on his head, his heart was cold.
But when I saw the top of the stone room, the ink was stained and blurred, and not a single word could be recognized.
But this stone chamber is close to the underground river, and the water vapor is filled, and two hundred years have passed, and all the handwriting has been dissolved.
A deep sense of loss came to my heart, and months of planning came to nothing.
Yue Buqun took two steps back, sat down slowly against the stone wall, stared blankly at the roof of the room, his mind was blank, the torch in his hand fell to the ground, but he didn't even have the idea of picking it up.
I don't know how long it took, the torches on the ground flickered and went out, the darkness drowned everything, Yue Buqun suddenly woke up, and thoughts began to arise in his mind again.
The mind and mind are all kinds of magical techniques.
My I Ching Forging Bones!
My Soul Shifting Dafa!
My secret to solving acupoints!
My secret to holding your breath!
My Nine Yin Divine Claws!
My jade bed!
My two swords are combined......
Yue Buqun still didn't want to move, and counted the martial arts in the Nine Yin True Scripture in frustration.
Hey!
Cold jade bed!
Yue Buqun stood up suddenly, Han Yu Bed!
The cold jade bed should still be in the ancient tomb, after all, this passage is coming down from a sarcophagus, and an object that can be called a bed will never be able to enter the coffin.
And a consolation prize!
The infinite power instantly returned to Yue Buqun's body, took out the fire sickle, and re-lit a torch, Yue Buqun walked out of the stone room, looking for it all the way.
Sure enough, he found the stone slab covered at the end of the passage, Yue Buqun turned over the stone slab, climbed into the coffin, pushed open the stone slab covering the top of the coffin, and walked out of the sarcophagus with a torch.
After a little look, this is a spiritual room, four sarcophagi are placed side by side, he just came out of the sarcophagus against the wall, holding a torch, Yue Buqun walked out of the door, just entered the corridor, the torch flashed, and the flame slowly shrank.
Oh no! There's no oxygen here!
Yue Buqun was startled, and hurriedly retreated to the sarcophagus, the torches instantly became vigorous again, it seemed that there was enough fresh air underneath to replenish, Yue Buqun secretly breathed a sigh of relief, but he couldn't go to the cold jade bed today.
Yue Buqun was stunned, looked back at the dark corridor outside, and decided to wait a few days for fresh air to pour in before looking for the cold jade bed.
When he stepped into the sarcophagus again, when he bent down and entered the sarcophagus, the corner of his eye swept over the sarcophagus next to him, and the sarcophagus lid and the objects sandwiched in the coffin body came into his eyes, flashing, Yue Buqun didn't pay attention to it, and walked down.
Walking to the side of the underground stone chamber, Yue Buqun suddenly stood still.
Wrong!
Yue Buqun frowned, feeling that he had overlooked something important.
Shaking his head, Yue Buqun seriously recalled what he thought and saw.
Well, right!
Something is wrong with the sarcophagus next to the passage.
These two should be empty coffins, how can there be something pressed under the lid of the coffin next to them?
Yue Buqun quickly returned to the spirit room, carefully looked at the things pressed under the lid of the coffin, stretched out his hand and touched it, it was already rotten, looking at its appearance, it should be an animal skin.
Caught under the lid of the coffin, it should be sealed, what needs to be sealed inside the coffin?
Corpse?
Yue Buqun looked at the two sarcophagi next to him, which should be the corpses of Xiaolong's female master and ancestor, it was not sealed, if this was a corpse, it would not be sealed, what would it be?
Yue Buqun felt a strong sense of anticipation in his heart.
Yue Buqun sandwiched the torch between the coffin body and the coffin lid on the side, stretched out his hand and gently pushed open the second coffin cover, a burst of dust spread, Yue Buqun retreated to the side, waited for the dust to stop, picked up the torch, and looked at the things in the coffin.
I saw two swords placed in the coffin, on the left and right sides of the sword, there was a boxy package, and there was an oil lamp at the end of the coffin, the oil stains had solidified, and it was black.
Yue Buqun's heart was agitated, he put the torch under the coffin lid, stretched out his slightly trembling hands, and gently untied the knot on the left package, the wrapping cloth was also rotten, and it broke after a little fiddling.
Yue Buqun lifted the rags, looked at them fixedly, and couldn't help laughing.
