Li Bing and An Qingfang are still exploring in the underground palace corridor. The torch burned again, and the light of the flame had faded.

"Be careful!"

Li Bing's feet had just taken a step, but the stone he stepped on sank slightly. He knew that he had touched the mechanism, so he hurriedly shouted, and took out the Taojian embankment.

"Gong ~ Gong ~" The sound of the two bracket machines came from overhead.

Listening to this sound, it must be a bolt mechanism. Just listening to the sound and distinguishing the position, before he looked at the top of his head, he raised his sword with a move of "starry night return", wanting to sweep away the arrows that were about to fly out.

But after this move, no arrows and crossbows were fired.

"I'm afraid, the crossbow string in this mechanism is broken!" Li Bing looked at the ground, and sure enough, there was a tattered arrow full of patina, still cast in bronze. "Oh, no! Someone has already triggered this mechanism, but look at the arrows, they're all broken like this. The time of this dungeon should be really, long, long. ”

Anzi followed behind Li Bing, and he pointed to the front: "There seems to be a sound in front." ”

Li Bing's attention was always on the strange sound, but he ignored the sound that Anzi heard. The two walked cautiously for a distance, and a tragic scene suddenly appeared in front of them, which was a little terrifying.

A white-robed young man was smashed into a puddle of blood and mud by a huge stone slab, and the plasma burst to the ground. Look at the clothes is the disciple of the Niangniang. His head was still intact on the outside of the slate, his face was frightened and painful, but his body was pressed against the very center of the slate, and all his bones and entrails were crushed into meat sauce.

Anzi followed the voice just now, and saw that there was another person trapped in the corner between the stone slab and the wall of the corridor, and most of his body was under the stone slab, I don't know if he was injured. He was still quite conscious, and it was the same Lord Deer he had met before.

"Is that you?" Lord Lu recognized Li Bing in the light of the torches, "Why are you here?

"They, you mean...... These disciples of the Niangniang?" Li Bing looked at Lord Lu's face repeatedly: "I don't know them. The other guy who was having dinner with you that day came to look for you at the inn, and I guessed that something might have happened to you. Thinking that maybe you came to the well last night, so you followed and found it. ”

Lord Deer will be suspicious, and if it is not for the enemy, he will be relieved a lot. Now he is being pressed, like a fish on a chopping board, asking for others, and he doesn't dare to say anything.

But Li Bing spoke first: "Are you injured?" looked at the slate, and said, "Such a big slate." How did you get crushed here?"

Lord Lu was pressed by the stone slab, looking extremely uncomfortable, he tried to climb out, but he didn't move, he could only whisper: "I'm okay, but my legs are pressed and I can't get out." He glanced at Li Bing, then at Anzi, thought for a while, and said slowly:

"I heard the movement last night, so I went down the well to investigate. I didn't go far before I saw this disciple of the Niangniang in the Yongdao, who knew that as soon as I called him, he immediately fled. I'm going to follow with that, too. That disciple didn't know how to trigger the mechanism, and I chased him with all my might, but I didn't notice. When I saw the stone slab falling, I wanted to dodge it again, but it was already a step too late. In the end, I was stuck here and couldn't move. ”

"That's reasonable. Li Bingxin said so, and asked, "Is this your family's secret passage?"

"Of course not! I only came down here last night when I heard the movement, and this is the first time I've come in. Lord Deer spoke, his face was slightly pale, and it was estimated that he had been pressed by the slate for too long. He said again: "You have asked so much, can you save me first!"

"Huh?" Anzi was taken aback by this request, he was much more timid than Li Bing. The perennial experience of begging for life also made him extremely wary of strangers. He repeatedly: "What if we save you and you want to kill us? Who knows if you are good or bad?" ”

Li Bing actually wanted to save him, but he was still more cautious, after all, he had seen too many intrigues in the time he had been out of Chang'an. The mind is not as simple as it used to be.

"I'll get you out, you have to answer me a few questions first!"

Lord Lu pondered in his heart, his eyebrows were angry, he didn't look at Li Bing, he just snorted coldly at the floor: "You ask!"

Li Bing squatted down and got closer to Lord Lu: "You said you came in for the first time." But between words, I always feel that you have known that there is a dungeon here?"

Lord Lu seemed to be taken aback by this question, and stared at Li Bing in surprise and asked, "Don't you know where this is?"

This made Li Bing even more puzzled, and he also asked: "Hmm? This makes me not understand, should I know?"

Lord Lu was even more surprised: "Didn't you come to Wuwei County to find this place?" After speaking, he carefully studied Li Bing's expression, and said suspiciously: "You really don't know anything?

Li Bing, who asked this series of questions, looked at a loss: "If you have something to say, just say it! Do I ask you, or do you ask me?"

The two of them played dumb riddles for a long time, and Lord Lu suddenly lowered his head, thinking about things without saying a word, and frowned when he thought about it, but he still didn't say a word after all.

"Hey, what about you! Don't think anything crooked!" Anzi was timid, but he was much more cautious than Li Bing.

Suddenly, as if he had made a decision, he raised his head sharply and looked at Li Bingdao: "Okay! He cleared his throat: "You should have noticed that no one else can hear this voice except the two of us." ”

"Hugh can hear voices that no one else can hear. Earlier, on the roof of my house, you told me that you could hear that voice too, and that you were also carrying the 'Tao Sword of the Meridian Sect', I thought you had also come to Wuwei to find this 'Hugh Tu Man Altar'. Now it seems as if your ancestors didn't say anything to you. Didn't you even say that you were a Hugh Tu?"

Li Bing and Anzi glanced at each other. Anzi knew that Li Bing was from the Tang Dynasty, but he didn't know if he had anything to do with this Hutu clan.

Li Bing himself knows very well that the genealogy makes the family's past clear, and there is no mention of this Hutu clan at all. 's mother is from Jiangnan, and it is impossible for her to have anything to do with this Hutu clan. He must be mistaken. Even though he thought so, he didn't say anything.

Then I heard Lord Lu say: "It's also that there are fewer and fewer people in Hugh now, and it's not strange that your ancestors don't tell you." When I saw you on the roof of my house, I thought you were also here for this place. Our Hutu clan has a very ancient history, and it is said that they have lived in this land of Wuwei County for generations, and this underground altar has long existed. The Hutu people believed that they were forgotten gods on earth when they went down from the earth to heaven. This underground altar is a very important place for the Hutu people.

Later, during the Han Dynasty, the then King Xiutu brought his people to the Han Dynasty, and our nation began to integrate with the Han people. The doctrine of Hutu was so weak in front of the various religious sects of the Han Dynasty, and there were fewer and fewer people who believed in Hutu, and this altar was gradually forgotten. It was only occasionally used by some Hutu people to escape the war. Later, during the Three Kingdoms period, the world was in chaos. Ma Teng and Han Sui attacked Wuwei. At that time, in order to protect this underground altar, the Hutu people sealed all the entrances to the altar. Then he burned all the books and moved to another place to escape the war.

After a few generations, and when the world was stable again, some Hugh Tu people returned to this place. My Lu family is one of them, but the older generation of Hugh Tu people have all died of old age. Even if the new generation followed the ancestral teachings and came here to find the old altar, they only had some incomplete information in their hands, but the entrance to the altar could no longer be found. And so these things gradually became legends. Even before I saw this dungeon, I thought it was just a legend. ”

Speaking of this, Lord Lu's eyes were a little excited: "It turns out that we are a people who slaughter people like the Han and Tang dynasties, and have their own beliefs and cultures!" Speaking of this, he has completely regarded Li Bing as a member of the people of Xiu Tu.

Then he said: "According to legend, the ears of the Hutu people are not the same as those of the Han people, and they can hear sounds that the Han people cannot hear. At the beginning of the construction of this altar, there was a treasure of Hutu, as long as there was a little wind in the dungeon, it could make a sound to tell the Hugh Tu people the location of the altar, so as to avoid going through the fork in the road and falling into the trap. No one outside of Hugh Tu could hear the voice. ”

Lord Deer continued: "Last night, I suddenly heard such a voice, and I guessed that the entrance to the altar of the Prophet had been found, but I never thought that the entrance was actually the bottom of my well. Then I met you at my house, and I still suspected that you had something to do with it. You also know what happened after that, I came in and saw the people who worshiped Niangniang, and I knew it must be them. I don't know why they were looking for this altar or how they found it. ”

He stared at Li Bingdao and said, "I'm done, you should save me!"

Li Bing thought for a while: "I can save you." But let's talk about it first. We didn't have any ill intentions, we just got here by coincidence. I'll save you later, you don't know what to think crookedly. ”

"You and I have no grievances, not to mention that you and I are still members of the same clan. If you save me, why should I kill you?"

"Anzi is here to help. Li Bing said and tried to lift the slate, but he didn't move. When Anzi also got started, the two of them stood on the left and right of Lord Deer and worked together.

"Uh-huh......!

Li Bing looked at the slate and said, "This slate looks like it is thousands of catties, and the two of us can't lift it." Why don't you wait here for a while, and we'll go out and find someone to save you?"

"Don't!" When Lord Deer heard this, he couldn't help but feel at ease, and repeated again: "Don't!"

He stopped the two of them: "Otherwise, you go to the back of the stone slab and try it, I only have my leg stuck." If you can lift the slab a little bit, I will be able to climb out. ”

Li Bing and the two walked over from the slate, looked at the slate again, found a suitable place to start, and worked together. The corner behind the stone slab was slightly upturned, and Lord Deer hurriedly crawled forward.

"Ah!" Anko and Shika-sama cried out almost at the same time.

It turned out that Anzi had lost his strength in his hand, and he didn't hold it for a while, and the stone slab that had just been lifted fell down again. Lord Deer had just moved forward, and before he was ready, the stone slab pressed against his leg again, and he cried out in pain.

"Are you okay?" Li Bing looked at Lord Lu with a painful look on his face, and couldn't bear to ask.

"It's okay! It's just that the leg is stuck again, this time tighter. "There is clearly a bead of sweat on Lord Lu's head, and such a large stone slab is pressed on his body, I'm afraid it is not as easy as he said. He comforted Anzi and said, "Little brother, it doesn't matter, let's try again." If I hold on as long as I did just this time, I can come out. ”

The two lifted it again, and this time Lord Deer seized the opportunity, used both hands, and climbed out stiffly.

Lord Deer crawled out, lying on the ground, leaning against the wall of the corridor, panting.

"Are you alright?"

"It's fine. He touched his legs and rubbed them vigorously to relax his muscles and blood: "The bones are not injured." It's that both legs are already numb. ”

Lord Lu said to himself: "It's good that you came to me, otherwise in a few hours, even if I am saved, my leg will be wasted." By the way, I was saved by two brothers, and I don't know the names of the two yet. ”

He didn't have much to do with Lord Lu, Li Bing originally wanted to give him a fake name, but he didn't think about it in advance, and he didn't have to pause much, so he had to say his real name. I secretly said in my heart that this is really a failure, and next time I must think about the fake name in advance.

"What are you going to do next, do you want to go back and recuperate?" Li Bing asked.

"No, you can't. Now that the Lady has discovered this place, I have to find the location of the altar before they do. Otherwise, if they destroy the altar, it will be very bad. He rubbed his legs and stood up strongly: "I saw those disciples of the Niangniang Niang Niang looking around in the Yongdao before, but they probably haven't found a location yet. We can hear the sound and should be able to find the altar very quickly. Without further ado, hurry up. ”

The three of them set off, but they didn't want to, on the other side of the fork in the road, the two disciples of the Niangniang had already listened to their conversation completely.

One disciple stayed behind to follow them, marking each fork in the road. And the other disciple had already returned the same way and went to report to the Niangniang.
