Chapter 129: Mei Deyong, It's Useless?

Ye Feng looked at Jiuding from afar, and his heart couldn't help but churn.

Although the tomb was full of rare treasures and dazzling, Ye Feng saw these nine big tripods at first sight, and they were really here!

In the Shaolin Temple, he had seen the relevant records about the Yu Jiuding, which mentioned that Dayu cast the nine tripods, with the male gold as the yang tripod, the female gold as the yin tripod, in order to combine the number of yin and yang.

Now from a distance, the color and pattern of these nine tripods are really slightly different, and the inscriptions on the body of the tripod are also uneven, which is not bad at all with what the master said.

This master of change is really so powerful, he is in the grass, but he can calculate all this without a bad score, and he can also find a helper like Sun Lao Er to help him enter here, he really has such a god?

If he was so godly, why didn't he send someone he knew well, instead of entrusting such a great matter to himself who he didn't know?

Ye Feng felt some doubts in his heart.

According to Master Gai, the yin and yang inscriptions on the surface of this Jiuding are combined in one place, which is the road map of the mechanism to find the mysterious ancient treasure, and this ancient treasure is closely related to the magical dragon pattern that appeared on his back at that time.

Now in front of him is the Dayu Jiuding, which has disappeared for thousands of years, is the key to open the ancient treasure, does it mean that he is one step closer to solving the mystery of the dragon pattern on his body?

He couldn't help but feel a little excited in his heart.

The people beside him were completely immersed in the beautiful scene of the tomb at the moment, and Zhang Fatzi couldn't help but reach out and touch the crystal portal in front of him, and even his voice trembled: "This, how do we open this door?"

Sun Lao Er on the side had a calm face, as if he was not moved by the many treasures in front of him: "You want to go in?"

Zhang Fatzi listened to his words, and asked with some puzzlement: "If you don't go in, are we here to visit?"

Sun Lao Er snorted coldly and asked, "Didn't you notice that the situation here is different from what is recorded in the history books?"

Zhang Fatzi was stunned, while carefully observing the scene in the tomb, and at the same time silently reading all the records in the history books in his heart.

Suddenly, he seemed to have discovered something, and exclaimed: "With mercury as a hundred rivers and seas, the machine is instilled, with astronomy at the top and geography at the bottom...... By the way, it's mercury, and there's no mercury in this burial chamber!"

Sun Lao Er nodded silently, signaling that he was right.

Zhang Fatzi asked suspiciously: "Could it be that the records in the history books are wrong? Where is the mercury in this tomb?"

Sun Lao Er snorted slightly: "Mercury is usually refined through dansha, it is something that alchemists have discovered very early and loved very much, and it is said that mercury is an indispensable material for refining the elixir of immortality. ”

"However, the mercury output is very small, not easy to collect and easy to volatilize, the tomb of the first emperor may really be filled with a large amount of mercury, made into the shape of rivers, lakes and seas, but after more than 1,000 years, I am afraid that it has already been volatilized and filled in the space of the entire tomb. ”

He turned his head to Zhang Fatzi and said, "Mercury is highly poisonous, so when alchemists refine the elixir, they will supplement it with various medicines to neutralize its toxicity. Now there is such a large amount of mercury in this tomb, and the tomb is always closed, once ordinary people walk in, as long as they inhale the air containing mercury, within a few steps, they will be poisoned to death. Do you still want to go in?"

Zhang Fatzi has read history books, and naturally knows that what Sun Lao Er said is true, since ancient times, countless people have dreamed of immortality, attained the Tao and ascended to immortals, and worked hard to refine and consume the so-called elixir of immortality, so they were poisoned and died.

Even in the year of the First Emperor, there is a legend that because of taking the elixir paid by the priests, not only did he fail to live forever, but he died violently on the way out.

It can be seen from this that what Sun Lao Er said is by no means alarmist.

Tang Da on the side frowned and asked, "Could it be that we have no way to go in, so we can only watch from a distance here?"

Sun Lao Er smiled slightly and said, "If you want to get in, it's not completely impossible." Since I promised Master Gai to help Ye Gongzi obtain the inscription on the surface of Jiuding, I am naturally prepared. ”

He turned to face the indifferent old man Mei on the side, and said, "Everything that follows depends on you, brother." ”

Since coming to the crystal portal of the tomb, everyone was shocked by the scene, but this old man Mei had a completely indifferent look, turning a blind eye to the dazzling treasures in the tomb, in his eyes, it seemed that none of these priceless treasures could compare to the wine gourd in his hand.

Now, Sun Lao Er said that if you want to enter the tomb, you have to rely on this old man Mei, and everyone can't help but be very curious, what kind of ability does this old man Mei have besides a good nose?

Sun Lao Er looked at everyone's curious expressions and explained: "As one of the four great strange families in the world, the Lingnan Mei family naturally has its own advantages. Legend has it that the ancestors of the Mei family originally lived by the sea, and the fishermen of the sea lived on the sea, and often went down to the bottom of the sea to touch the shells in order to find precious pearls, so the water is excellent, and it is said that someone can dive into the bottom of the sea for half a pillar of incense without ventilation. ”

The ancestors of the Mei family learned this method, combined with the unique method of internal strength and breathing, and practiced the legendary turtle breath technique, which is said to be able to hold the breath of a stick of incense for more than a long time. Because they have this ability, they are revered as one of the four great strange gates by the rivers and lakes. ”

He smiled and said: "This skill of theirs is very helpful for entering the tomb and exploring the cave, so the Lingnan Mei family has had a very good relationship with our Guanzhong Lao Sun family for generations, and there is often cooperation." It wasn't until twenty years ago that the Mei family moved to Guanwai. ”

Can you hold your breath for a stick of incense? Isn't that any different from a dead man?

These words made everyone feel very surprised, it seems that for the tomb in front of them, only Old Man Mei is the most suitable person.

Zhang Fatzi swept away his previous contempt for Old Man Mei, and couldn't help but sigh: "It seems that your Mei family really gave you the wrong name, Mei Deyong, you are really useful!"

Listening to Fat Man's quipping words, Old Man Mei raised his head and glared at him hatefully, and Fat Man Zhang immediately closed his mouth.

Old man Mei looked up at Sun Lao Er, and his face suddenly swept away the nonchalant expression he had before, but said with a serious face: "Since I came here, I was originally ready to go in." But before we go in, can you fulfill the promise you made to me?"

Hearing the meaning of these words, Old Man Mei agreed to come to help this time, not as Sun Lao Er boasted, but because of the friendship between the Lingnan Mei family and the old Sun family in Guanzhong for generations, but what conditions Sun Lao Er promised him before.

And when he brings it up now, it seems that he has a bit of a sense of sitting on the ground.

Seeing Old Man Mei's attitude, everyone

's heart couldn't help but tighten, could it be that this matter is going to change again?

Sun Lao Er smiled a little embarrassedly and said, "Didn't we already talk before, when you successfully come out of it, I will fulfill my promise?"

Old man Mei sneered: "Successfully come out of it?" Along the way, these mechanisms in the Qin Emperor's Mausoleum are not only dangerous, but also incredible, and now in the tomb of the First Emperor, I don't know what kind of powerful mechanism design there will be!"

"Even if I am a cat with only nine lives, I am afraid that if I go in, I will die for nine lives, if I can't make it out, won't all the promises you made before be empty words?

Sun Lao Er was silent and lowered his head, as if hesitating.

Old Man Mei's voice softened a little, as if pleading: "I just want to know the truth about my father's death in this labyrinth twenty years ago, and now that I am taking such a big risk, don't you even want to tell me directly?"

When everyone heard it, it turned out that Old Man Mei's so-called condition was just to know the truth about his father's death here.

Sun Lao Er had said before that twenty years ago, at the invitation of Tang Taigong, the old Sun family, the Mo family and the Lingnan Mei family came to the Qin Emperor's Mausoleum to find out, and one of the two brothers from the Mei family was the father of the old man Mei.

As a result, they lost their troops in the Qin Emperor's Mausoleum, and finally came to the labyrinth, but in the end they failed to break through the labyrinth, and the two brothers of the Mei family were all buried in the stone room of the labyrinth.

Later, the split of the Mei family in Lingnan, and their later migration to Guanwai, all of them were due to the tomb visit twenty years ago and the death of the two Mei brothers.

Now as a son, it is normal for Old Man Mei to want to know the truth about his father's death here.

Everyone looked at Old Man Mei with sympathetic eyes, and then turned their heads to look at the hesitant Second Sun Er.

As a first-hand witness who entered the labyrinth back then, no one will know better than Sun Lao Er what happened back then.

Sun Lao Er thought silently for a long time before he sighed and said, "Okay, I didn't want to continue to hide from you what happened back then, but I just didn't want this matter to affect your next actions." Since you're so insistent, I can tell you right now. ”

When Old Man Mei heard this, he couldn't help but feel refreshed, and looked at him with bright eyes.

Sun Lao Er paused, and then slowly began to narrate: "Twenty years ago, I and the elites of the old Sun family came here with my father, led by Tang Taigong of the Tang Sect in Shuzhong, and entered the Qin Emperor's Mausoleum to explore the secrets. ”

As Sun Lao Er narrated, Mo Qizhong nodded silently, and seemed to be caught in the memories of the year.

"When we first visited the Mausoleum of Emperor Qin, everything was a blank, except for Tang Taigong, who had made a lot of preparations for this trip, we all knew nothing about it. Therefore, along the way of exploration, a lot of manpower has been lost. ”

Mo Qizhong also sighed slightly, a sad look appeared on his face, and he seemed to see the children of the Mo family who died under the Qin Emperor's Mausoleum.

Sun Lao Er sighed: "After going through hardships, we finally found the path to the Broken Dragon Stone, but I didn't expect that after we dug the passage and entered the labyrinth, the real change came!"
