75 The dried corpse worships the shrine
Just when Xie Yixiang had the intention of killing, unexpectedly, the golden head catcher was actually a general idea, suddenly stopped the movements in his hand, pulled out his short sword, and stared at Mayor Wu and Xie Yixiang fiercely, actually wanting to swallow the wealth of this room alone.

However, Mayor Wu seemed to have been prepared, and without waiting for the head of the gold catcher to make a move, he knocked his short sword to the ground with a wave of his sleeve, and shouted loudly: "You fool who is obsessed with money! Even if you give you all the gold bars here, will you be able to get them all? If you kill me, you alone can get out of this 'underworld' valley? Now these gold bars you have taken are enough for you to spend several lifetimes, and if you are greedy, beware that you will not live even a day." ”
The golden catcher was not a stupid person, but when he suddenly saw this lot of wealth, he was a little confused for a while. At this moment, he was suddenly sobered up by Mayor Wu's words, nodded quickly, bent down and continued to fill his bad bag with gold bars. Mayor Wu immediately turned his head and said to Xie Yixiang with a smile: "This fool has never seen much of the world, but it made Miss Xie San laugh." The three of us can't get all the wealth here anyway, so why don't we call that Dai Daxia to come over?"
Xie Yixiang didn't go away, and immediately said coldly: "That senior Dai is determined to glorify the Emei Sword Sect, and all he cares about is those martial arts secrets. I never took this money and things to heart. Mayor Wu suddenly snorted and said: "After all, Dai Daxia is still a step higher than me, as long as he teaches the martial arts of his disciples well, his children and grandchildren will not starve to death in the future." Otherwise, even if he is given a mountain of gold and silver to the Emei Sword Sect, there will eventually be a day when the mountain is empty, and the ambition of the person will be exhausted. ”
Hearing Mayor Wu's words, Xie Yixiang couldn't help but feel a shock in his heart, and said secretly: "Sitting and eating the mountains and empty, and dissipating your ambition? Yes, even if all the wealth here is distributed to the people of the world, there will be a day when it will be exhausted.
For a while, Xie Yixiang had all her murderous thoughts, only to feel cold sweat all over her body, and secretly said that she was lucky. Seeing that Mayor Wu squatted down and stuffed the jewels into his arms again, he didn't know if what he said just now was unintentional, or if he had discovered his intentions, so he pointed out. As soon as she thought about it, she immediately thought: "Since my original intention in joining the torture chamber is to uphold justice, reward the good and punish the evil, although the suspicion of this mysterious family is great at present, but after all, the evidence is insufficient, how can I refer to the deer as a horse and use the wealth they have operated for thousands of years as the salary of the robbed? Isn't this the same as what Zhuang Haoming, Yan Sidao and others did when they were in Huguang before?"
Although this mysterious family has a strange origin, behaves strangely, and was an enemy of the imperial court eleven years ago, killing a master sent by the emperor, it is not an initiative to cause trouble, not to mention some heinous people. If there is no evidence of the theft of military salaries and robbery, this strange valley known as the "underworld", the terrifying snake king in the Han tomb, and the mysterious "chaos" alone will not convict them of any crime.
Thinking of this, Xie Yixiang couldn't help but sigh, and she didn't know what to do in the future for a while. Seeing that Mayor Wu and Jin Zhutou were both stuffed with gold bars and jewelry, but they were still desperately stuffing their bodies, Xie Yixiang knew that shouting was useless, so he exited the stone room alone and came to the stone gate at the entrance of the passage, and said loudly: "If you two don't come out again, I will close this stone door." ”
Her move can be described as a big revenge, and the two of them, Wu and Jin, clearly wanted to quietly close the "wooden door", so as to trap Xie Yixiang and Dai Qi in it. Unexpectedly, after only half an hour's work, the feng shui had already taken turns, and it was Xie Yixiang's turn to threaten Wu and Jin.
And Mayor Wu and Jin Zhutou in the stone room faced this amazing wealth, driven by greed, they had already denied their relatives, but after all, Mayor Wu still had a trace of sober consciousness, and when he heard Xie Yixiang's words, he suddenly came back to his senses, raised his foot and kicked Jin Zhutou beside him. The two talked a few words, knowing that Xie Yixiang, a little girl, could do what she said, although she was extremely reluctant, she had to finally grab a few handfuls of jewelry and stuff them into her clothes, reluctantly retreated into the passage, and returned to the circular stone room with Xie Yixiang.
Xie Yixiang saw that the two of them were stuffed under their clothes, and in order to get more gold bars and jewelry, even the daggers and short swords that they had taken behind the "Golden Gate" before were discarded, and they were amused and angry for a while. At that moment, she smiled slightly and said, "The two of you are inevitably too anxious, and it is clear that there is still a 'dirt gate' here that has not been opened." If there are more precious things hidden in this 'earth gate', then wouldn't the things on the two of them be taken in vain at this moment?"
Mayor Wu's face turned red, and he hurriedly said: "My lord has taught me a great lesson, so let's go to the last 'earth gate' together." While speaking, listening to the few soft sounds of "Ding Dong Ding Dong", it was two agate ornaments and a jade teapot rolling out of his trouser legs, falling on the bluestone ground with a loud sound.
Xie Yixiang was disdainful in her heart, but she still had a smile on her face. Seeing that Dai Qi hadn't come out of the "wooden gate" yet, thinking that he was still studying the martial arts secrets of the Shushan faction, it was inconvenient to go and disturb him, so she immediately signaled Jin Zhutou to open the last "earth gate". When the stone gate was pushed open, the mayor of Wu and Jin Zhutou sorted out their belongings, and they were still the first to lead the way, and the three of them stepped into the passage behind this "earth gate" one after another.
Unexpectedly, it was very different from the previous four stone rooms, and everyone was still marching in this passage, only to feel a gust of yin wind rushing in front of them, which made people feel chilling to the bone. The golden catcher was not small, and immediately cursed twice, and took the lead through the passage, and sure enough, it was a huge stone room. I heard him suddenly scold: "Fuck, it's really bad luck." What a 'dirt gate', it turned out to be dust to dust, earth to earth, and a place for the family to bury their bodies!"
Xie Yixiang was stunned for a moment, and hurriedly walked out of the passage to see. Under the light of the lantern in the hand of the golden catcher, this stone room was actually crowded with "people", all of them were sitting cross-legged, facing a shrine against the wall with their heads drooping, and a rough estimate showed that there were about sixty or seventy people. The whole scene is like the monks in the Buddha hall facing the Buddha statue chanting scriptures, but there is less dignified and majestic anger, replaced by a cold dead air full of the house, which is extremely weird.
If you look closely at these "people" sitting cross-legged, they are all terrifying, and their dry bodies are only covered with a layer of waxy yellow skin wrapped around the bones, supporting the clothes they are wearing. Xie Yixiang had seen a lot of corpses in the torture room, and immediately understood that the so-called sixty or seventy "people" at the moment were clearly sixty or seventy dried corpses, no wonder the golden catcher would say words like "burial place".
Unexpectedly, behind the five stone gates of "Jinshui, Wood, Fire, and Earth" in the depths of this altar, behind the four doors of "Gold, Water, Wood, and Fire" in front corresponds to blades, elixirs, classics, and treasures, and behind this last "earth gate" are the bodies of the deceased in this mysterious family.
Xie Yixiang once learned about the origin of this mysterious family from the chronicles behind the "wooden door". As for these dried corpses in the stone room at this moment, it is conceivable that they must be important figures in the entire family, even if they were not the leaders at that time, they were the so-called "family stewards," and they must be extremely prestigious people, otherwise they would not be qualified to store the dried corpses here after death.
Seeing that the stone chamber was full of dried corpses that had been dead for a long time, Mayor Wu was not very afraid. At that moment, Wu and Jin investigated among these dried corpses, but they didn't find anything abnormal, let alone see anything valuable on these dried corpses, and they couldn't help but be disappointed. For a moment, the eyes of the three people present couldn't help but fall on the shrine enshrined against the wall in the stone room.
Since this mysterious family living in seclusion in the depths of the valley by Poyang Lake is a descendant of the Shushan faction in the past, the gods who are now enshrined in this burial place are unknown which way of immortals? Xie Yixiang couldn't help but take two steps and looked into the shrine, and was suddenly shocked.
