Chapter 9 Under the Water
Chasing the water beast with Shi Lan, Dong Ping and Lin Sanchuan took Bai Qingchi and the woman in white all the way to the bottom of the upstream river. The water beast swam forward for a few miles before it stopped moving forward, and instead plunged straight down.
Dong Ping looked up and saw that above, it was the strangely shaped Yingmen River Gorge. Lin Sanchuan pointed to Bai Qingchi's two daughters and motioned for Dong Ping to send the two of them to the water. Dong Ping shook his head, in his opinion, the situation above was far more dangerous than underwater. Although there was an inexplicable force surging underwater, he felt that the force had no ill will towards him. Moreover, the feeling that power gave him was extremely familiar and intimate. Dong Ping let go of the hand covering the woman in white, and hurriedly put his lips on it, giving her two mouthfuls of true anger. Subsequently, he
Fiercely stabbed down, and dived down more than ten feet.
Lin Sanchuan also dragged Bai Qingchi, who had been struggling, to follow. At the bottom of the river, Dong Ping and the woman in white in his arms were shocked by the scene in front of them.
Just look at the feet of the two people, not all the rock, sand and silt in the usual rivers, but a huge field paved by countless huge bronze bricks carved with dragon patterns and simple styles. In the center of the field, eight strange beasts that were three feet tall formed a circle according to the direction of the gossip.
In the circle, there is a large, smooth blue bronze mirror. In the center of the bronze mirror, there is a zigzag black line. If Dong Ping's guess is correct, then the bronze mirror is the door to the underground. And when the water beast and Shi Lan also walked on the bronze mirror, they disappeared out of thin air.
Dong Ping swam to the bronze mirror, and saw the word "Red Mountain" written in the corner of the bronze mirror. Dong Ping said secretly: "If this is really the ancient tomb of the Southern Dynasty that Wang Tao said, then it is not surprising that this place was a high mountain thousands of years ago. With that in mind, he embedded the tip of his blade in the crack of the bronze mirror sword. The woman in white in Dong Ping's arms obviously noticed that Dong Ping's body was trembling slightly. His face was slightly pale, and the green tendons on the back of his hands bulged out.
"Good sturdy door. ”
At this time, Lin Sanchuan swam down, but he was not much shocked by seeing the landscape in front of him. He threw off Bai Qingchi and hugged the bronze mirror with open arms. Just look at him to use the power of a pair of iron arms to the extreme, grasp the edge of the bronze mirror, is a twist. Suddenly, the bronze mirror began to rotate slowly.
"It's with turns. Dong Ping secretly scolded himself.
As Lin Sanchuan turned the bronze mirror, the crack slowly opened, revealing the deep and incomparable dark cave below. The boiling river also took advantage of this time to pour into the cave. Dong Ping first swam into the cave with the woman in white in his arms, and Lin Sanchuan followed. Bai Qingchi, who was still swimming on the side, trying to find an opportunity to rescue the woman in white from Dong Ping's arms, saw that the three of them had entered the cave. Although she was reluctant, she had no choice but to follow. As soon as she entered, the bronze mirror closed instantly.
The cave was straight down, and the walls were smooth. After Dong Ping and the others entered, they had nowhere to borrow their strength, so they could only let their bodies fall straight down. But in this stone cave, Dong Ping also breathed the air that he had not seen for a long time.
"Shangliangzi!" Dong Ping shouted, and Lin Sanchuan, who was below him, took out the fire fold from his arms, and casually tore off a piece of underwear that had not been soaked and lit it down. I only saw a ball of fire drifting down, reflecting the scene at the bottom of the cave.
A square foot is full of gravel paving.
Seeing that he was about to fall to the bottom of the cave, Dong Ping threw the woman in white to Lin Sanchuan, and then he slapped down with both palms. Two suction forces poured out, pulling his body down quickly.
only heard the sound of "bang", Dong Ping took the lead in landing. He slapped upwards a few more times, and a slightly gentle palm qi floated up, slowly supporting Lin Sanchuan and the three of them to the bottom of the cave.
After a few people stood firm, they heard a coquettish shout: "Bastard, let go of my cousin!"
Lin Sanchuan glanced at her, and pushed the woman in white out of the crook of his arm. After Bai Qingchi stabilized her, a slightly pale face of the woman in white showed an apologetic smile: "Chi'er, you can't be rude to your benefactor." ”
"Cousin, I think they're the bad guys. When I was on the boat, I felt that they had bad intentions. Now they've kidnapped us to a place where birds don't, and who knows what they're thinking. Look, they're staring at us again!" Bai Qingchi pouted in displeasure.
Dong Ping smiled and said, "If you two are wet, we are not allowed to see it?"
Hearing this, the two girls looked down and saw that their clothes were already wet and transparent, and now they were clinging to the white and tender skin that was as smooth as snow. Bai Qingchi was very arrogant just now, but when he saw his embarrassment, he couldn't help but burst into tears.
Dong Ping took off his robe and threw it to the second daughter, and Lin Sanchuan also took off his coat and said, "It's cheap for you, now it's your turn to look at my son-in-law." ”
After the second daughter wrapped the clothes thrown over to her body, Bai Qingchi said, "Who rarely looks at you!"
The woman in white pressed Bai Qingchi's hand and said softly: "The little woman Leng Piaopiao thanked the two heroes for their rescue." ”
Dong Ping smiled and said, "Leng Piaopiao? ”
Bai Qingchi shook his cold arm and said, "Sister, they got us here, and you still thank them? I'm afraid we won't be able to get out." ”
Dong Ping fiddled with a stone on the ground and said with a lewd smile: "Since we can't get out, why don't we have fun in time?"
Lin Sanchuan clapped his hands and agreed: "Okay, son, I want that rude little girl, I have to clean her up today!"
Looking at Lin Sanchuan, who was fierce and tall with a leopard's head and eyes, Bai Qingchi actually cried out. Leng Piaopiao hugged Bai Qingchi and said, "Two heroes, don't tease my sister anymore." She is young, if she offends the two of them by her words, she will also read to the two heroes in the fairy words, and forgiveness. ”
Dong Ping spread his hands and said, "I didn't tease him, if you want to find it, just look for this one-eyed dragon." ”
Lin Sanchuan scratched his head and said, "Childe, you can't say that." ”
"If I don't say that, what do you want me to say?"
"I, Lin Sanchuan, am a serious person......
Dong Ping smiled: "Then you say I'm not serious?"
Leng Piaopiao saw that the two of them were not talking properly, she couldn't help but interrupt the two of them: "Two heroes, the little woman thinks that what my cousin said has some truth, we can't stay in this cave all the time, right?"
Lin Sanchuan also squatted down and said, "Yes, Childe, we obviously followed that assassin here." But how did that assassin disappear into thin air? Are we going to be trapped in this hole for the rest of our lives?"
"You think it's beautiful!" Bai Qingchi shouted coldly.
Leng Piaopiao glanced at Dong Ping meaningfully and said, "I believe that this hero will have a way." ”
Dong Ping shook his head helplessly and said: "I said that you two don't understand etiquette or not? Since the hero saves the beauty, you should promise each other." Our brothers and I have been busy for most of the day, just waiting for this stubble. You don't want to pay anything now, so you want to ask us to do things, where is there such a reason in the world? Sanchuan, you said that this son will be right?"
Lin Sanchuan was silent.
"I'm asking you!"
"I don't know, I'm a serious person. ”
Dong Ping was angry for a while, looked at Dong Ping with a cold smile and said, "If Your Excellency can really bring our sisters out of here, it is not impossible to make a promise to each other." ”
Bai Qingchi was surprised when he heard this: "Cousin, you won't fall in love with him because of this prodigal son, right?"
Leng Piaopiao smiled and said: "This son has a good face, and he can help our sisters when they are in trouble, so he must not be bad-hearted." Is there something wrong with me falling in love with him?"
Bai Qingchi shook his head and said, "Anyway, I don't think he looks like a serious person." Besides, cousin, you don't know his family and where he came from. Maybe he's already married, or maybe you have other plans for your cousin. ”
When Dong Ping heard this, he suddenly felt that one head and two were big. He just said it casually, and he didn't think that the two women were discussing it decently. He stood up and said, "Two girls, I think you are thinking too much, Xiaosheng does have a family, but it is ...... to be a dewy couple with the girls."
Leng Piaopiao's eyes lit up and said, "Chi'er, let's go." Before she finished speaking, the two daughters walked behind Dong Ping together.
"Cousin, how do you know that the exit is behind the prodigal son?"
"I don't know. But I saw that the boy sat on the ground against the wall of the cave after we came down. I feel that there must be a demon when things go wrong. ”
Dong Ping smiled self-deprecatingly, he didn't expect to be caught by a girl. As soon as he arrived at the bottom of the cave just now, Dong Ping saw that there was a hole on the wall of the cave that only allowed one person to crawl through. He came for fun, and second, he wanted to probe the details of the two women first, so he sat down against the wall of the cave and hid the entrance of the cave. But he didn't think about it, he hadn't explored the details yet, but he was teased by the two of them first.
Leng Piaopiao lay on the ground, looked back at Dong Ping and smiled: "Childe, aren't you coming in?"
Looking at Leng Piaopiao's delicate curves outlined by his lying posture. Dong Ping smiled and said, "Come in, of course I want to go in." ”
Entering through the hole, there is a narrow, deep tunnel. Lin Sanchuan climbed at the end, because his skeleton was thick and rubbed against the stone wall, so there was a noisy sound of stabbing and stinging.
Out of a hurry, Bai Qingchi, who was at the front of the line, couldn't help but shout: "Hey! Don't fart, it's stinking to death!"
Lin Sanchuan's face rose angrily, he wanted to say back the damage, but Dong Ping kicked him gently. Lin Sanchuan suppressed his anger and said with a smile: "Lao Tzu is just a fart, it stinks you!"
"Phew!"
Dong Ping ignored the grievances of the two, he put his hand on Leng Piaopiao's leg and smiled: "The girl has an injury, I push you, you can save a little strength." ”
felt Dong Ping's strange hand rubbing back and forth on his leg, but said with a smile: "Then thank you, Your Excellency." ”
"It's convenient to be with people, it's convenient for yourself. ”
I don't know how long this road is, and the four of them climbed for about half an hour, but they still didn't see the exit.
Dong Ping was a little bored, he pinched Leng Piaopiao's leg and said, "Girl, you and the puppet on the river seem to be old acquaintances. ”
Leng Piaopiao did not shy away from saying at all: "That's the little woman's second uncle." was kicked out by his father because he violated the family rules, so the second uncle has always held a grudge against the people of his family. This time it has affected the son, and I hope that the son will not hate the little girl. ”
"Cousin, why are you talking so much to an outsider, who knows what the hell he is doing!"
Ignoring Bai Qingchi, Dong Ping sighed and pretended to sigh: "If you want to talk about this, it's no wonder that the girl is there." The man was sent by the Seven Kills Sect to take my life, and he bumped into two girls. That's what I was responsible for. ”
Leng Piaopiao's body was stunned, and it turned out that Bai Qingchi stopped.
"Dead girl, what are you doing!"
Bai Qingchi said: "Cousin, I'll just say that there is a problem with the two of them. You see, if it weren't for the two of them. We may not be able to arrive in Jinling early now, and you are still thanking them again and again. ”
Leng Piaopiao's face added a little anger, and she said in a deep voice: "Chi'er, don't be rude." They are also being hunted down, so how can they spread their anger on their heads? ”
Bai Qingchi snorted, and after squirming for a while, he still moved his body.
Leng Piaopiao said: "That person's identity, the little woman also knows a little, and he is now one of the leaders of the Seven Killings." The Seven Kills Sect can dispatch him to hunt down and kill Childe, and it seems that Childe also has a great background. ”
Dong Ping smiled and said, "It's not a big deal, Dong Ping, have you heard of it?" Although Dong Ping was laughing when he said this, his knife was ready to be fired.
Bai Qingchi's body stiffened, and her voice trembled slightly: "Dong Ping, isn't it the big villain, the big traitor, who united with the Liao people to kill the dean of the Luyue Academy and Lu Xuejian?"
Leng Piaopiao's body was also a little unnatural, she was silent for a moment and said: "I don't think so, according to Dong Gongzi's personality, there must be a hidden secret in the so-called killing of Uncle Tai Dean and Lu Xuejian." ”
Dong Ping let go of the handle of the knife and said with a smile: "What Miss Leng said is true, she was indeed framed by someone. Dong Ping said, and there was only a few people left in the corridor who made the sound of rubbing against the stone wall. Other than that, several people stopped talking.
The four of them walked forward for another half an hour, and the corridor began to become wider. The more you go, the more spacious you become. This turned out to be a trumpet-shaped corridor, and at first a few people could only walk on their stomachs, and after a while, a few people were able to walk on their waists. Soon, the people straightened up, and a foot above their heads was the wall of the cave.
Suddenly, the footsteps of several people stopped abruptly. This road has come to an end. In front of everyone's eyes, there is a huge bronze wall. On the wall, there were totem patterns carved with the appearance of several bronze beasts that Dong Ping had seen outside.
Lin Sanchuan scratched his head and asked, "This, how to go here?"
Dong Ping said helplessly: "Naturally, move it away." ”
After that, Dong Ping stepped forward and took a closer look at the bronze giant wall. Suddenly, he saw that there was a gap half an inch long in the place where the stone wall touched the road.
Dong Ping frowned and said, "This wall has been removed. ”
He pulled out the snow and plunged his knife flat into the gap. He tried to pry it up, and the bronze wall was estimated to weigh tens of thousands of catties.
Lin Sanchuan stepped forward and said, "Let's work together to pry it up!"
Dong Ping hummed, and the two of them held the handle of the knife together and lifted it up.
looked at the two people in front of them who were like nothing and were bent on prying the wall. Bai Qingchi took out the last stone pill from his arms, and seeing this, Leng Piaopiao held Bai Qingchi's hand, shook his head and said, "Dong Gongzi, the little woman can give you a hand." ”
Dong Ping's hands were white, but he still pretended to be relaxed and said: "Miss Leng is still optimistic about your cousin, isn't this wall open?"
After that, he and Lin Sanchuan shouted at the same time. Leng Piaopiao and Bai Qingchi heard a loud bang, and the wall actually rose up in an instant. With the opening of the wall, the second daughter did not see the way out she wanted. Behind the walls is an enclosed stone chamber. The stone chamber is not big, but there is a large jade coffin in the stone chamber. The jade coffin looked like a good seed material, and on the white and flawless coffin, there were traces of blood spreading.
Bai Qingchi snorted, his face full of frustration. Although Leng Piaopiao didn't speak, the look of disappointment was palpable.
"Cousin, we're really unlucky to get home. Not only did I encounter the cold autumn festival of the disaster star, but now I was brought here by these two people for no reason, I think, we can't get out. ”
The broken hair scattered on Leng Piao's forehead suddenly moved slightly, and she smiled: "I don't see it, there was obviously a breeze blowing from the opposite side just now." If there is really no way out, there will be no wind. As soon as Bai Qingchi heard this, he heard Lin Sanchuan say apologetically: "I'm sorry, I really farted just now." ”
Leng Piaopiao smiled dumbly, Bai Qingchi leaned on Leng Piaopiao's shoulder, and scolded with a crying voice: "You go to die!"
Dong Ping looked at the jade coffin without saying a word, and he secretly said, this kind of tomb is really unseen and unheard of. He felt that a faint Buddha power was faintly emanating from the jade coffin.
Dong Ping picked up his knife and tiptoed into the stone room.
It's strange to say, Shi Lan didn't know where he went, and the four of them didn't find any trace of him when they walked to the end. Dong Ping pondered: "Could it be that there is any dark room in this place that can hide people?" Dong Ping chuckled in his heart at this time, and he came back to his senses, since he entered here, that inexplicable power has disappeared.
Dong Ping didn't dare to hold it up, he fell backwards and exited the stone room. Then, he stretched out his five fingers to turn his true qi. In an instant, his five fingers popped out one after another, and the chaotic invisible finger qi shot towards the jade coffin. In the blink of an eye, the jade coffin had become full of holes. Immediately afterwards, Dong Ping crossed the knife to his chest, he slammed the blade, and a piercing knife sound entered the stone room.
Lin Sanchuan and the three of them all covered their ears, and after a while, the sound of the knife dissipated.
Everyone only looked at the jade coffin and shook for a while, and when it landed, it was struck into countless broken jade by the sound of the finger qi knife, and rolled to the ground with a bang.
After the jade coffin disappeared, what appeared in front of everyone's eyes was a long strip of pale black jade that was arranged in an orderly manner. The jade was layered on top of each other, and a thin gold-skinned book was placed on it. Above the book, a skull sits along. The skull was engraved with dense Sanskrit characters.
Seeing this, Lin Sanchuan strode forward, he picked up a black jade and said, "Childe, don't you see that this is like a relic written in a book!"
