Traveling Through the Grave Robbers' Chronicles: Starting from Meeting You

The people chosen by Zhang Qishan to enter the cave and Zhang Hanyan and others landed on a platform extending from the cave entrance. They stood at the entrance and looked inside. It was pitch black inside and they couldn't see the bottom at a glance.

"flashlight!"

The person standing next to Zhang Hanyan quickly turned on the flashlight and handed it to her.

She raised her flashlight and shone it inside. With the help of the flashlight, she saw pottery jars appearing one after another twenty meters away from the cave entrance, extending to the invisible end.

"Young man, look at those pottery jars. There is a spherical object growing on them. There is hair on them. It's like a human head growing out of the pottery jars."

Zhang Qiling looked inside along the beam of the flashlight. The light could not reach the innermost part. He estimated the distance and it was about three hundred meters. It was frighteningly deep and dark.

He took out a box of matches from his backpack, lit it and threw it in. The ground in the cave was covered with hair and there was hair hanging on the walls.

In the light of the fire, they found many sunken pits on the wall, which were obviously dug out by humans, and there were many bamboo slips in the pits.

"Han Yan, don't touch these pottery jars, there are..."

"I know. We went in easily. What will they do? If we don't take one or two people in, Zhang Qishan will probably keep pestering us. It's so annoying."

Zhang Qiling looked at the people who were as far away from them as possible, and a trace of disgust flashed in his eyes.

If there wasn't a cliff behind them, they would probably be a hundred or eighty meters away from them.

"I'll go in and take a look first. If it's safe, I'll come out and take them in."

Zhang Hanyan's eyes never left the pottery jars on the ground. She knew what was inside the jars, and she also knew that once these jars were broken, not only them, but also the people on top of them would face serious consequences.

"I'll go in first, you wait for me outside."

After she finished speaking, she lightly stepped onto the edge of a pottery jar, turned in the air, and her feet were already in the pit on the right.

She spun and jumped in the three-hundred-meter-long passage with smooth movements. In just a few seconds, she reached the end of the passage.

Her movements were so fast that she didn't even give Zhang Qiling a chance to refuse before she took action.

"Hanyan, be careful."

"I know, don't worry!"

Zhang Hanyan walked into the cave at the end of the passage with a flashlight. In the center of the cave was a huge iron plate covered with many strange patterns.

As she watched, the iron plate was slowly turning. The speed was so slow that it would be impossible to notice if she didn't look carefully.

She studied the rotating iron plate in front of her. The bottom of the plate was connected to the rock, and there was a dull hinge sound underneath.

Obviously, the power that makes the iron plate rotate comes from inside the rock.

"So this is the Qianli Lock..."

Zhang Hanyan found the part where the bottom of the iron plate was connected to the rock, and lifted the edge of the iron plate to pull out the iron shaft inside. The moment the iron shaft was pulled out, the iron plate immediately stopped rotating.

The black iron axle is hollow, with an oval hole on top that goes straight down like a pipe.

She shone the flashlight through the hole and saw a lot of black chains underneath. The chains were covered with something like cotton wool. They were intertwined and shaking constantly.

Zhang Hanyan looked around, restored the iron plate to its previous shape, and watched it slowly turn before walking out.

She leaped a few times to reach Zhang Qiling's side and spoke in a voice that only the two of them could hear.

"There is a Thousand Mile Lock inside the cave. I have checked it. It is impossible for them to crack it even if they spend their whole lives here."

Zhang Qiling gently removed the spider silk from her hair and said, "Well, then take them in."

"Okay." Zhang Hanyan turned around and looked at the people behind him. "You, take your things and go in with us. Hurry up!"

As soon as she waved her hand, the people behind her immediately came forward and gathered around them.

"In a moment, I will show you how to get in. Watch carefully. If you make a mistake, you may end up here forever."

Everyone gathered at the entrance of the cave, watching her swift movements, their mouths wide open in shock.

The fact that they were chosen to be the first group of people among the Nine Gates to enter the cave already shows that they are top-notch players among the Nine Gates.

But now, after seeing Zhang Hanyan's clean and neat skills, they realized that the gap between people is really huge.

While they were daydreaming, Zhang Hanyan, who had entered the cave, was once again standing in front of them with ease.

"Okay, go in one by one and get started."

Everyone looked at each other, not knowing whether they should be the first to step forward.

"What are you dawdling for? Hurry up!"

Zhang Hanyan shouted angrily, and a servant of the Huo family walked into the cave without hesitation. After a series of operations, they gradually approached the end of the passage.

Just when everyone breathed a sigh of relief, he slipped and almost fell on the pottery jar on the ground.

At the critical moment, Zhang Qiling jumped several times and approached him who was about to touch the ground, put his arms around his waist and brought him to a safe place.

The people at the cave entrance couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief when they saw that he was safe.

With the protection of Zhang Hanyan and Zhang Qiling standing on both sides of the cave entrance, their uneasy hearts gradually settled down and they felt confident.

They rushed across the long passage and successfully avoided the densely packed pottery jars.

Everyone gathered in the cave at the end of the passage.

Zhang Qiling and Zhang Hanyan leaned against the wall in the corner, quietly watching them tinkering, taking pictures, and doing all kinds of useless things.

"Patriarch, Saint, this iron plate seems to be spinning? It's really spinning!"

Zhang Hanyan rolled her eyes at him speechlessly, "Take more photos and go back to tell your master that as long as you unlock this iron plate, you will naturally get the password to enter the Zhang family's ancient building."

"Oh, okay, come on, everyone, take more pictures and try to capture every detail clearly!"

When they went out, the people from the Nine Gates looked at the bamboo slips in the holes on the walls around the passage, secretly sized up Zhang Hanyan's expression, and spoke cautiously.

"Saint, can we take some of these bamboo slips with us? Maybe there are deciphered messages in them."

"If it's not too much trouble for you, I have no objection."

Everyone's faces lit up when they heard this, and they all started putting the bamboo slips from the pit into their backpacks.
