Chapter 204

Qin Daoqing has been listening to the movement with his ears stern. He gave an order that if he is found to be murdered to silence him, he will immediately resist and don't care about the exposure.Later, I was relieved that the other party just wanted to trap them, so they didn't resist.

Before they left, someone put medicine in the kerosene lamp again, presumably to let these people sleep for a few more days, and it will be too late when they wake up.

Qin Daoqing and the others held their breath, and when there was no movement outside, he quickly removed the cloth to cover his mouth, put out the kerosene lamp and threw it out the door.

"Mom, you're suffocating me to death." Jiang Qingyu gasped for air and slowly sat down against the wall.

Even if he held his breath again, he still took two breaths, and now he felt like he wanted to sleep.

Seeing this, Qin Daoqing took out an awl from his bosom with no expression on his face, and pointed it at his hand all at once.

Jiang Qingyu woke up with a cry, "What are you doing, you are too ruthless, are you a good brother, ah..." As he spoke, he felt sleepy, and seeing that he was about to close his eyes again, Qin Daoqing gave him another shot without hesitation. .

"Oh——" Jiang Qingyu jumped up and shook his hands, "I'm awake, I'm awake!"

"Hurry up and wash your face and wake up, we don't have much time." Qin Daoqing's expression was serious, and Jiang Qingyu also became serious.

This is not the time to joke around.

"I don't understand that they all went in like that. When I wake up, they don't have any equipment. How can I go back?"

"Maybe someone will meet him elsewhere." Qin Daoqing was not sure either.

With such a style of conduct, there is a posture of breaking the boat.

Thinking of this, Qin Daoqing felt a little flustered.

Li Qingzhou's room has changed, the bed has been moved from its original position, and there are obvious mechanisms under the bed.

"Young Master Qin, this is a huge boulder. You need to find a switch to open it."

The person who spoke was Xu Bo, a well-known native of Shaanxi. He had robbed countless tombs, and this time he was hired with a lot of money to help.

Of course, he didn't care about the design of the machine. "It's just that the movement of this thousand-jin stone will make a huge noise. If the other party knows about it and ambush us secretly... we may be at a disadvantage if they are hiding it."

This is indeed a problem.

"Then how far will they go before we activate the mechanism to hide it?" Qin Daoqing asked.

Xu Bo stroked his moustache and thought for a while, "Master Qin, if you believe me, just wait for another half hour, and I will definitely be able to track their whereabouts."

"Half an hour..."

Qin Daoqing gritted his teeth, "OK, just half an hour."

According to the description in the handbook, there is no danger for them to occupy the time, and the man is not of the nature of waiting to be caught, so he will definitely be able to wait for him to come.

"Qingyu, let everyone prepare the equipment and get ready in half an hour."

"it is good."

Jiang Qingyu turned around and went out to give instructions, while Qin Daoqing asked Xu Bo for advice, "I have always had a question, why is there a secret passage here, do you know if it was built before or after?"

"This is different from the secret passage in Liangye Ancient City. I think this secret passage has a history of more than 500 years. According to the time, it should be built during the Moon City period. It may be that the royal family built this secret passage to avoid the disaster of genocide. road."

"The entrance to the Secret Road should be in the palace, why is it in the residence?" Qin Daoqing didn't understand again.

Xu Bo smiled and said: "This is the brilliance of Moon City. The Imperial City must have a secret entrance, but there are three cunning rabbit caves. It's okay to prepare two more."

"I think the family surnamed Li discovered this secret passage by accident, and regarded him as a convenient way to enter the destination. As for the ancient city of Liangye, my junior brother will soon send news. According to my guess, The secret road in Liangye Ancient City has the same function as here, and it is a shortcut to enter Lop Nur."

Qin Daoqing clenched his fists slightly, he eagerly wanted to know what happened to his mother back then, why she entered the ancient tomb, why she was in the bronze cauldron, why...

There are too many mysteries waiting for him to answer, and he can't wait any longer.

I don't know how long they walked in the icy and bitter secret passage, and finally heard a muffled sound, and they were put against the cold wall, and then she smelled a pungent stench, which almost killed her on the spot.

"Cough cough..."

Yuan Yunke opened her eyes and looked around confusedly at the dark surroundings, "What's going on? Why are we here..." She opened her eyes wide, "Where's Zhen Zhen?!"

"Zhenzhen is here." Mingyan sent the little girl in her arms to her side, Yuan Yunke hugged her quickly, and Li Zhenzhen just woke up at this time, "Mom, where are we——"

Wang Sidi and Li Yanzhi next to him also woke up one after another, "What's going on? Have you hit a ghost?"

Li Qingzhou took on the job of comforting them, "Aunt, aunt, you don't have to be afraid, you just slept a little deeper, it's nothing serious. We have no choice but to do this. Qin Daoqing's heels are so powerful that we must get rid of them. That's fine. You don't want us to be followed by our enemies all the time and unable to do anything."

Li Yanzhi said directly: "Qin Daoqing clearly saved Grandpa, why is he still an enemy?"

"Sister, you are so naive. There is no good person in their Qin family. They clearly came here to avenge her mother. If we don't get rid of them, maybe we don't know how we died. Do you understand?" Li Qingzhou said.

Yuan Yunke pulled Li Yanzhi back, "It's true to say that, but where is this place and where are we going next?"

"This is the secret passage below. It is a secret passage built by the king of Moon City in order to escape. The purpose is to escape to Lop Nur. Then you just follow us. Don't be afraid. Grandpa and the others have come many times, and there will be no danger. .”

It wasn't until this time that Li Keyao's memory came back here, and the same scene and the same words seemed to overlap.It's just that it was Li Zhaoxiang who comforted her at that time.

At this time, Li Zhaoxiang was motionless in the darkness in the corner, thinking about something immoral.

Wang Sidi suddenly screamed, "Ah! Have you brought all my things, otherwise what will we eat and drink?"

Li Qingzhou smiled, "Don't worry, Second Aunt, we'll take everything you need, but we didn't bring you anything like rice and white noodles. There aren't that many people, and we only took some ready-made ones."

"Ah?" Wang Sidi was a little displeased, "You guys are really good, I think you just thought I brought too many things and threw them away on purpose."

Li Qingzhou seemed a little embarrassed, "You guys rest for a while, we will have to walk in the secret path for a long time."

He took a deep look at Yuan Yunke, and when his eyes fell on Li Zhenzhen, he quickly looked away, turned and walked towards Li Sangqing, asking about his physical condition.

Li Sangqing was full of energy and was not tired at all.

He couldn't wait for a few people to rest, so he asked people to start their journey.

Walking in the gloomy and secret passage, Yuan Yunke felt a gust of cool air rushing from the ground to the soles of his feet, chilling his entire body.

Even wearing a sheepskin jacket can't resist the chill.

No one in the group spoke, they all walked alone, and there was no other sound except the sound of footsteps.Yuan Yunke held the chalk in his hand and secretly left marks as he walked.

She felt that the current section of the road was not a secret passage, but a tomb passage.

Because she saw the ancient paintings carved on both sides of the secret passage, each of which is exquisite. Is it necessary to get these in the secret passage?This also coincided with Li Keyao's vague memory.

If you guessed right, they are already in Lop Nur now, and have already entered the outer edge of that magnificent underground palace.They will not go up again, and everything that happens next will happen here.

The road conditions here are very complicated, and now she has passed eleven stone gates and turned fourteen turns. Obviously this is an anti-theft tomb design, but it has been cracked.

I don't know if Qin Daoqing can keep up...

Yuan Yunke looked at the relief on the stone wall beside him, and there was another plump girl sitting kneeling with downcast eyes. In the painting ahead, the girl raised her head slightly... By analogy, you should be able to see it on the relief near the exit. The girl's face now.

Still has a sense of design.

At this moment, there was a sudden laughter, which sounded like a woman.

Yuan Yunke couldn't hold back his mouth and imitated her weird laughter, "Heh~~~heh~~"

Li Sangqing roared in front of him: "Shut up."

After her making such a fuss, Li Zhenzhen was no longer afraid, "What is this aunt laughing at?"

"who knows."

Hearing Li Sangqing's order, everyone raised the flashlights in their hands to shine on the ceiling, but found nothing.

Sensen's laughter sounded again, this time it seemed to be a little mocking.

Hey, she's still a thoughtful ghost girl.

A gust of wind suddenly blew, and only a rough scream of a man was heard. A man at the end of the line was wrapped by something that looked like white clothes to the wall, and then fell straight down. The man twitched twice and spat out two mouthfuls of blood , no longer move.

The team suddenly became chaotic. Who would have thought that the tombs that had been visited many times would encounter such a strange thing this time.

Yuan Yunke held Li Zhenzhen in his arms, pulled Li Yanzhi behind her, and quickly dismissed her if things were not going well.

Li Zhaoxiang shouted: "Don't be confused. We have walked this road so many times. There is absolutely no problem. There must be something pretending to be a ghost!"

He picked up the flashlight and looked up, and the others calmed down and looked around for the strange thing.Unexpectedly, that thing disappeared without a trace.

Even that sly laugh was never heard again.

Li Zhaoxiang came to the dead man and found that his backpack was missing, "What is he carrying?"

"It's bacon and ham." The person on the other side replied.

Li Zhaoxiang stood up and said, "Don't be afraid. This is definitely not a ghost. Whichever ghost you think is interested in eating must be an animal that grows in the tomb."

After hearing what he said, everyone calmed down a lot.

The reason is the same, but animals in the tomb may be more terrifying than ghosts, just like the animal just now, killing people is just like playing.

Li Zhaoxiang asked his dying brother to pretend to be here and take him away with him when he comes back.This is exactly what Yuan Yunke meant, and it can just remind Qin Daoqing and others that there is danger here, hoping that they will not encounter the monster again.

After taking care of these things, everyone quickly went on the road. No one wanted to stay here for another minute.

Qin Daoqing also descended into the secret road. It was the first time they walked this road, relying on the marks left by Yuan Yunke and Xu Bo's skills to move forward.

As he walked, Xu Bo raised his hand to organize a group of people to move forward, "The front is not right."

When everyone came to the stone gate that he thought was wrong, Jiang Qingyu groped and studied for a long time, "It's really wrong. The material of this stone gate is very different from the material in the secret path, and the style is also different. It seems to be something from two ethnic groups and two dynasties."

"Young Master Jiang is right, that's what he means. This is no longer the secret passage left by Moon City, but something further outside..."

Qin Daoqing said, "Ancient tomb, this is an ancient tomb."

Xu Bo nodded, "That's right, it's an ancient tomb. Mr. Qin is well-informed, and this is indeed an ancient tomb."

"There has always been a legend in the archaeological community that the tomb of a powerful princess in the Han Dynasty was built in Lop Nur. This statement is polarizing in the archaeological community. Some people think this is nonsense. Lop Nur is too far away from the Central Plains. If Loulan There is nothing wrong with the ancient tombs being discovered here, but it is impossible to build the tombs of Han princes and nobles there; another theory is that the princess’s biological mother came from the Western Regions, and her husband was a prince from a country in the Western Regions. There are many reasons for building a mausoleum in Lop Nur. Most likely, we advocate exploring Lop Nur and looking for ancient tombs."

His mother is a scholar who advocates the latter.

He was wondering if everything would make sense if his mother had tracked her down here for this ancient tomb...

"Ah~ you are talking about Princess Chengrui, the sister of Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty," Jiang Qingyu said.

"Yes, that's the princess." Xu Bo, as a local master, his eyes lit up when he encountered this kind of tomb, and he couldn't wait to go in and find out.

Qin Daoqing had to remind him, "Xu Bo, you know what we are asking you for this trip, and I hope you don't do anything else. Moreover, this place has been entered by Li's family more than a dozen times. What kind of treasure has long been in the Li family's pocket."

"That is, that is, there are rules for doing business in a business. Since you have accepted this business, you can rest assured."

Looking at Xu Bo's restless eyes, Qin Daoqing was not at ease.

When a group of people entered this stone gate, they really felt the breath of the ancient tomb. Xu Bo was so excited that his voice became much lighter.

Qin Daoqing winked at Jiang Qingyu, and Jiang Qingyu nodded silently.

"Hey, I don't seem to see the mark after entering the ancient tomb." Xu Bo said.

Yuan Yunke would leave white chalk marks at important places such as turning points and gates, but when he arrived at the tomb, he could no longer remember anything.

Qin Daoqing felt a little uneasy, wondering if they could catch up with them.

Here, Yuan Yunke just learned from Mingyan that this is the tomb of Princess Chengrui. He was lamenting the extravagance and corruption of the feudal system, and followed everyone to a stone house in a blink of an eye.

I heard them say that the side hall is full of porcelain.Yuan Yunke didn't even look at it, thinking about it with his head, he knew how many times the people from the Li family had come, and what good things could be left behind.

Mingyan deliberately teased her, "Ke Yao, try to see if your ability is still useful in the ancient tomb?"
