Ring of Seven [Online Version]
Chapter 51 Xuanwu Lake
8:00 Guo Pu's Tomb Road
Just when the three thin monkeys also met those strange people, Zhou Jue and the other three wanted to get rid of the pursuit as soon as possible.The three of Zhou Jue strenuously marched towards the tomb passage, they dared not look back.But this road is a slope. The further you go down, the deeper the water will be. In the end, the three of them are basically swimming like dogs.The equipment on their bodies weighed them very hard, just like buffaloes dragging a bunch of trains.
Fat San held the back of his head and said, "Why do I feel like this place doesn't look like a tomb passage?"
Zhou Jue pulled him and said, "Listen, there is movement!"
The three stopped splashing the water, and they found that there seemed to be the sound of boating on the opposite side, which was very rhythmic.
Fat Three said, "The Ferryman from Hell?"
Chen Hao looked behind him, and there seemed to be something floating in the water behind him, and when he looked carefully, he found a large piece of blood, which was smelly and smelly, Chen Hao said: "Go ahead, those strange things behind are still there. "
This sentence brought the three of them back to the reality of fleeing for their lives, but after swimming like this for more than half an hour, they still couldn't see the end, and there was no fork in the road.More like a sewer than a sewer.Everyone was exhausted. Zhou Jue felt like he was participating in a triathlon after just climbing and now swimming, but he couldn't stop.Because they could still vaguely hear the creepy bell, they knew that those things behind had followed.
Just when their speed was getting slower and slower, Chen Hao, who was swimming in the front, suddenly stopped his movements. He said, "Sure enough, Guo Pu built his tomb in the water. It seems that it is said that Guo Pu's tomb was built in the water. That's right. This is the real Xuanwu Lake, the underground Xuanwu Lake. The places Huzi talked about in the book correspond one by one."
Zhou Jue raised his head and found that this passage was indeed just a small waterway, and at the end was a huge lake.The sound of the tide formed by the lake water resounded in the ears, it was like a huge inland lake, Zhou Jue estimated in his heart that the water power could generate electricity.
Fat San opened his mouth and said, "This...here?"
Zhou Jue immediately looked up at the sky, but there was still no sunshine.He said: "This is an underground lake. How could there be such a large underground lake here?"
Chen Hao said: "It is possible that Guo Pu's lifelong attainments are actually reflected in the word water, Feng Shui Feng Shui, wind is born and water rises, and wind also works to make water rise, which is to pay attention to a life. Look here It is full of tension of movement. And such a large water source also protects the whole tomb. He uses the water to provide the vitality needed by the whole tomb, including the organs in the princess tomb, the stone wall waterfall in front of us and the heavy rain They all rely on the power of this lake. As long as there is this lake, then these two tombs are alive."
Zhou Jue took a flashlight and looked around, he said, "But it's all water, there are no graves at all."
Fat San said, "Could it be down there?"
Zhou Jue shook his head. He looked at his watch and said, "Looking at the water, I don't know how deep it is. If the tomb is really under the ground and we don't have diving equipment, a few meters at most is the limit. If you go down, you'll just wait for it to explode." .”
Fat San said: "But there is nothing like a grave in the surrounding area, only underwater is possible. It's over, we are not prepared enough, it is impossible to go down." But even though he said that, he still did not give up. He found a stone by the side, and he threw it forward after he finished speaking, and he heard the sound of the stone thud, his expression was exactly the same as that of Zhu Bajie in Journey to the West, who was like a quicksand river hitting a stone.
Chen Hao just looked at the lake quietly, he didn't participate in the conversation between the two, suddenly he let out a surprise, and then he swam to the middle of the water talking to himself, Fat San and Zhou Jue looked at each other, and the same thing happened. followed.But Fat San was not good at swimming in the first place, plus his physical strength was exhausted, in the end it was almost Zhou Jue who pulled him forward, but Chen Hao suddenly stopped in the middle, he looked ahead, and then looked back.
He suddenly said, "Do you feel that the water here is different?"
Zhou Jue suddenly understood what he meant, and he said, "At first, the water flowed from east to west. But here it seems to be moving in the opposite direction. What's going on? It's also Guo Pu's spell. Is it?"
Chen Hao shook his head and said: "No, the water flow is affected by the gravity of the earth, causing the water to flow to a lower place. That is to say, there is a watershed at the intersection point where the water flows are opposite. Variety."
After finishing speaking, Chen Hao went back and forth in this area for a few times, like catching fish.Suddenly he stopped at a point and said: "This is right here, you come to me."
Zhou Jue pulled Fat San, who had no strength, to swim towards Chen Hao, and only then did he realize that something was wrong, Chen Hao didn't keep floating according to the waves, he was standing upright in the water.Suddenly he understood what he meant before, and he hurriedly dragged Fat Sanyou to Chen Hao, and he found that there was actually a land in this area, and they could step on it.
Chen Hao said: "This is probably the highest point of the rammed earth layer of Guo Pu's tomb palace. And it seems to be quite large. The entire underground palace has already changed the water potential of this underground lake. It's almost like a bowl is buckled underneath. .It's 45:[-] and we don't have much time to dawdle."
After speaking, he took out a bundle of things from his backpack, Zhou Jue took a closer look, and almost fell into the lake from the puddle.He asked, "Where did you get the explosives?"
While setting up the detonator, Chen Hao glanced at him and said, "If it wasn't for the explosives, I would go to Guo Mei and the others? I can get all the equipment, but I don't have such high skills to get explosives. Don't talk nonsense. Quickly help. If you don’t want to help, just step aside and give me a rest.”
Zhou Jue really moved away very honestly, Chen Hao's hand holding the detonator stopped in the middle, he looked at Zhou Jue, Zhou Jue smiled embarrassedly and said: "I thought you were real Let me rest."
Chen Hao silently withdrew the detonator in his hand and glared at him, but couldn't say anything.
Fat San finally regained his strength at this time. He looked at the things in Chen Hao's hands and said worriedly: "Add explosives? What if it collapses? The water will have to submerge the tomb."
Chen Hao said: "It's not that simple. If a dynamite can destroy Guo Pu's tomb, then his "Funeral Book" will be written for nothing."
Fat San struggled: "What if it's over?"
Chen Hao was stunned for a moment: "Then let us pay him with our lives."
After speaking, he took a breath and plunged his whole body into the water.Soon he came up again and said to the other two, "Get out of the way."
The three of them spread out towards the lake when they heard a muffled sound.Then the water flow found a vortex but it disappeared soon, and the water was still swaying very regularly.Sure enough, this tomb is like a bronze saint fighting the Pope, without any response.
The three of them looked at each other, and they found that a hole the size of a tank mouth had indeed been blasted at the bottom of the water, but the grave did not receive the slightest impression.In other words, the opening seemed to be painted on, without affecting the overall structure at all.
Zhou Jue couldn't help sighing, "Awesome..."
Chen Hao said: "You don't want to follow, wait until I go down to have a look." After speaking, he dived in.After a full 5 minutes, I heard Chen Hao say: "Come down."
Zhou Jue and Fat San looked at it, and Fat San said, "Well, I'm rather awkward in shape, or I'll get off first, and you push me?"
Zhou Jue rolled his eyes and replied: "You should eat less after you know it. You don't want to be a human being with a cork stuck in this hole. It's really waterproof."
Fat San sighed helplessly, took a breath, and with his blushing face desperately squeezed in, finally he was squeezed in too.
Then Zhou Jue threw the luggage in first, and just as he was about to enter, he seemed to find blisters on the surface of the water. He was attracted by the movement, and at that moment he felt as if there was something under the water Shake again.He shouted into the cave: "Wait for me, I see something under the water."
After speaking, he jumped into the water at once. The water near the underground palace was very turbid, and the flashlight in Zhou Jue's hand was not a wolf's eye, so the visibility was very low. Suddenly he found that there seemed to be something alive swimming under the water. In the past, the speed was very fast, but it looked like a person, at least Zhou Jue saw the pair of feet.But before he could take a closer look, he was dragged up from behind. He looked up and found that it was Chen Hao. Chen Hao said angrily, "What are you doing? We've run out of time. You still have thoughts Playing a breath-holding game?"
Zhou Jue wiped his face and said, "No, there is a person below, I suspect that it's not just the three of us who came in."
Chen Hao looked at the water, his eyes flickered slightly, he reached out to touch the backpack, and said: "No matter, go in first, I also found a big secret inside."
The three of them got into the hole, and Zhou Jue finally understood why the roof wouldn't collapse. When they entered, they found that there were actually many water tanks and very exaggerated water pipes, which guided all the water from the bottom out. And this water pipe also played a fixed role.
Zhou Jue sighed, "How on earth is this made? It's amazing to build this thing underwater."
Chen Hao said: "Underwater tombs are actually not uncommon in China. The water in this lake is obviously guided artificially. I guess they built the tomb first. Once Guo Pu hung up, they dug a canal and filled it with groundwater. It is the first layer of anti-theft measures." Bar."
Chen Hao pointed to the front with a flashlight and said: "Look, there is a road ahead, there is a passage beside it, and there are torches to light it up. Guo Pu did all this as if he hoped that someone would come in. He seemed to be waiting for someone to come in." .”
After speaking, he pointed to the distance ten steps ahead, Zhou Jue fixed his eyes and found it, and said, "There is also a hole that was blown out!"
Chen Hao took a photo with a flashlight, and he said, "That's right, I found that the hole is not as big as we exploded, and the power of gunpowder is not as strong as ours, but they are more professional than us. I guess it is Cuiniang and the others. Came in. Looks like we're on the right track."
After finishing speaking, he walked around the cave and said, "Look, these water columns remove a lot of lake water, which is why the stone wall waterfall we saw earlier is formed. I think this stone wall waterfall will form again soon."
Fat San gasped and said, "Is this the big secret you're talking about?"
Chen Hao shook his head. He pointed to the edge of the robbery cave and said, "In the book, Lin Xu, Cuiniang, Liu Fei, Feng Luxi, and Qier entered the ancient tomb at the end. There are five people in total, but you see." He pointed to the bottom of the sink and said: "There are torches on the walls here. They are different from us modern people. Flashlights have not been popularized yet. They will definitely use those torches. If they take less, it can be explained that this person There is no way to take things with both hands, but now someone has taken an extra torch."
Fat San said: "Maybe it's a backup?"
Chen Hao said: "It's unlikely, because the size of this thing is too big. It's not easy to hold, but it will cause a burden."
Zhou Jue looked at the rows of torches beside him and said, "There is another possibility, a total of 6 people entered."
Fat San said: "Damn, that person didn't appear in the story? Why didn't he mention it in the novel?"
Zhou Jue said angrily, "Hey, it's a pity that Lin Xu is no longer here, otherwise we can directly ask him for confirmation."
Chen Hao grinned, revealing a very unnatural smile.But soon he returned to his original serious expression, Zhou Jue asked him what was wrong, Chen Hao covered his chin and said directly: "If it is true that six people came in, the person who has not appeared is the key, and there is Among these people, why did they deliberately hide Lin Xu in the first place? In the end, what Lin Xu didn’t know. I think what happened when I first entered the Princess Grave, the original seven people are actually very important .”
Zhou Jue and Fat San shook their heads silently, and Chen Hao said: "Let's continue to follow their footsteps. We will know what they encountered."
Chen Hao squeezed the torch: "Don't waste the battery, we can also use this for lighting."
The passage here is not so much an underground passage as it looks like a waterworks.There are a lot of water tanks, plus the hole Chen Hao blasted and the explosion caused by Cui Niang and her group decades ago, only half of the water tanks were irrigated.But in other words, it is estimated that there will be danger here two more times.Because the water pipes are not fast enough to clear the water, these tanks cannot store so much lake water, and when the tanks overflow, then this place will also collapse.
Fat San said: "It seems that the Feng Shui master also miscalculated. You can see that it is enough to let people come in four times. If you do it twice, this place will be finished."
Chen Hao snorted and sneered: "No, I have seen it, we are only in the outermost waterproof protection area of the rammed earth layer, as long as this place collapses, we will not be able to find the real entrance to the underground palace at all. It becomes the core wrapped in a pile of ruins, and unless a national organization digs it, it is impossible to find the entrance. To put it bluntly, we haven’t reached the underground palace yet. That’s why I said we have to hurry up.”
Zhou Jue said with a guilty conscience: "If we happen to be the fifth batch, what we are facing now is a pile of ruins."
Chen Hao said: "It can be said that, and the lake water does not change direction casually. I think the use of its tidal effect can make the two tombs interact, so the so-called Bureau of the Five Elements is the combination of the movement of the lake water. The landscape here, the changes that have occurred."
Fat San said foolishly: "So it's not so magical? I thought it was really a divine help?"
Chen Hao said: "It doesn't necessarily mean that there is no ghost. In short, let's go on. Now it seems that the book Ring of Seven is a reminder to us, and it is also a misleading one."
Zhou Jue picked up the torch next to him and said, "Two ghosts, right, okay, let's go."
And just after the three of them entered the tunnel of the ancient tomb, the originally turbulent lake began to bubble up, rolling like boiling water, suddenly the bell rang, and ghost cries rang through the entire lake with the arrival of those seven people , but after the seven weirdos rushed to the surface of the lake, they did not move forward. The person who took the lead bowed and knelt on the surface of the water, and his body seemed to be floating on the surface of the water, and then all seven people knelt Pour on the lake.The sound of the bell stopped suddenly, and then there was a deathly calm, but slowly blood continued to overflow from the bodies of these seven people, and the lake water under them was gradually soaked into deep red.And those seven people also melted into this blood, extending towards Guo Pu's tomb.
7:30 Princess Tomb
Inside the Princess Grave, the thin monkey pulled the latch tremblingly. His hands shook so badly that he could hardly pull the latch. They all turned in, and then rolled on the ground in pain, and the inside of the door was completely dark. Although there were no monsters rushing out, it was impossible to see whether there was any danger. The thin monkey looked at the man who was slowly walking towards them. Those monsters, Ye Wei, the arm he grabbed with his teeth, rushed into the door together with him.
He closed the door with all his strength, and the whole person slid down. He said to his back in fear: "Fuck, the door is latched on the outside, and it can't be locked inside."
Ye Wei covered his eyes, but instead he grabbed the thin monkey's arm and pulled him up, saying: "Then run, as long as you leave them, I can see."
The thin monkey looked at Feng Laojiu, who was rolling on the ground, and Ye Wei, whose face was bloodstained, and said desperately: "Damn, go, run in." After speaking, he dragged Feng Laojiu and ran in. Depressedly cursed: "I can't see, and you won't help me?"
The thin monkey said: "Didn't you see that I don't have a third hand? Don't talk about holding me, I will lead you to run forward. Stop talking nonsense and run for your life."
The three of them dragged and pulled, almost fleeing like fleeing. I don't know how many ways they ran. The thin monkey just felt that he was going straight forward, and he never saw any fork in the road. Ye Wei finally shouted: "Stop, I can see now."
Because of the heavy burden, the thin monkey almost squatted on the ground panting: "Hey, what's going on here?"
Ye Wei said: "Fortunately, they are slow to move because they are condensed by blood. Otherwise, if some monkey or leopard comes, we will be dead by now."
The thin monkey stood up staggeringly. He grabbed Ye Wei by the collar and said, "Tell me, how much do you know? I'm not that boy Zhou Jue. My patience is at the end now. You know so much, there must be something for you. You Didn't it mean that your family knows the details about this princess?"
Ye Wei did not push Shouhou's hand away, but held it instead. His hand was as cold as if it had no body temperature. Shouhou looked at him and said forcefully, "What do you want?"
Ye Wei said: "If you want to live to the end, you'd better not mess with me, you don't know your own situation at all. Don't forget that I can save you, but I can only save you. That princess was The people of the Li tribe, they helped the new generation of emperors, and chose Liu Yu. But in the end Liu Yu crossed the river and demolished the bridge, and wiped them out, it was that simple." After speaking, he glanced at Feng Laojiu who was lying on the side, Feng Laojiu didn't care, he just stared at the depths of the tomb passage.
The thin monkey's originally calm emotions were ignited by him all of a sudden, and he sent Ye Wei flying with one punch, Ye Wei stood up unsteadily again, his expression was a little different, the empty eye sockets A bitterness flowed out, and he smiled wryly: "Among these people, the only one I feel hesitant about is you. If you can give me the same trust and devotion as your brothers, maybe..."
At this moment, Ye Wei squatted down clutching his chest. Ye Wei thought he had a heart attack. He remembered that he had coughed like a tuberculosis. The thin monkey asked worriedly: "Are you okay, do you have a heart attack?" Ah? You said earlier that I would give you a hand too.
Ye Wei immediately grabbed his arm, and the thin monkey felt his hands trembling badly. Ye Wei looked at the thin monkey with painful eyes, and the thin monkey's heart softened. He squatted down and wanted to help Ye Wei up, but unexpectedly But Ye Wei grabbed the thin monkey, opened his mouth and sealed the thin monkey's lips, the thin monkey's brain roared, and for a moment he even forgot the instinctive scud, he opened his eyes Ye Wei, Ye Wei's eyes gradually changed from The slack pain turned into that kind of indifference without waves.And the thin monkey finally raised a punch and sent Ye Wei flying, he was so angry that he rushed forward to beat him, but Feng Laojiu grabbed the thin monkey and said: "Don't do bad things, we have to rely on him to complete the ceremony. "
The face of the thin monkey was trembling, and he roared: "Get out, I will kill you when you get out. You wait to buy a coffin, you pervert."
Feng Laojiu stood up with difficulty, he clutched his chest and coughed violently: "Stop talking nonsense with him, let's go..."
The thin monkey closed his eyes, took several deep breaths, and finally cursed: "I will bear with you one last time, if you do that kind of fucking thing again, I will destroy you."
Ye Wei still had no expression in his eyes, he just wiped the corner of his mouth and said: "I said that the only one who can save you is me. Can you still count on him?"
The thin monkey closed his eyes and pointed at Ye Wei and nodded desperately. He raised his thumb and said, "Okay, you're really fucking good. I'll see how long you can go crazy." .
Feng Laojiu glanced at Ye Wei, he just said lightly: "Why didn't you tell him, there is nothing you can do if you do that, if..."
Ye Wei interrupted him: "Since we all have a purpose, don't expose each other. As for him, I will let him get out alive. And you must stay here."
Feng Laojiu looked at Ye Wei suspiciously, and said, "I'm afraid it's not your turn to decide."
Ye Wei clutched his chest, his eyes showed a sense of tenacity indifferently, and said in a low voice, "This time, I can."
Feng Laojiu snorted nonchalantly: "Then it depends on your ability, Young Master Ye."
Ye Wei glanced at him and said, "Let's go. Then it's time for the Guhunpo in your hand to play its role."
9:04 Guo Pu Tomb
Chen Hao turned sideways, carefully opened the waterproof backpack, took out dry clothes from inside and said, "Put on some clothes and move on. We don't have time to dry clothes."
Zhou Jue also took out spare clothes from his bag. Chen Hao saw that they were starting to put on clothes, so he quickly organized the equipment. Holding Guo Pu's white jade wat board in his hand, he said, "According to the map of Furong, the location of Guo Pu's tomb is It has been determined, and we are at the top of the tomb, similar to the top of the pyramid, and the tomb must be at the bottom. And this thing, what is its function?"
Fat San changed his clothes, threw the wet clothes aside and said, "But we don't know where his dead body is lying?"
Chen Hao had already packed his luggage at this time. Although he took out his clothes, his backpack was still bulging. He put the white jade wat board and the ring of seven with many black hairs on the top of the backpack. He said: "We are not going to pay homage to his remains, our purpose is to find the tomb wall that can unravel the resurrection technique of the Li tribe, and looking at Guo Pu like this, it is estimated that he guessed that today is the day before setting up the tomb wall." In this series of rounds, in fact, his purpose is not to tie us up, but to use various methods to stop the seven plague gods behind us."
Zhou Jue read the inscription on the wat board: "I am leaving Fang Yan in disorder, and I will leave with my life. Qianbo resents Qingyang, Lingu Yu bandits rest. The voice of the deceased is still dark, and the children and grandchildren are forbidden again. The long way is far away, Yin and yang double evil knot. Qianbo... Does this poem have other hints?"
Chen Hao said: "Since Guo Pu intends to guide future generations to enter, there must be a place to remind us. Now this path is correct. We are already in Guo Pu's tomb. As long as we go down, we will know the truth." .”
Fat San hissed at this moment and said: "But, I have never figured out which ones are right in that book. I always feel that there is something wrong."
Chen Hao said: "The so-called mistakes can only be confirmed if we find the real answer. Now we know only these points. Such seven evil spirits. So he used his own tomb to set up such a final barrier and final sealing method for people like us, and the second is Cui Niang and the others, a total of six people came in, who is that person?"
After speaking, he lit the torch. The torch was very primitive, and the original oil inside it had evaporated. Chen Hao opened the side pocket of the backpack and took out a bottle and said, "This is liquid fuel, just dip a little bit of waste cloth in it. "
So the three of them held each other's hands and walked towards the depths of the tomb passage.Fat San, who was walking at the back, watched Chen Hao and Zhou Jue walking some distance away, and he immediately took out a small sealed bag from his bag and stuffed it in the corner.And he took out a white marker from his body to make a mark. He looked at the person in front of him, quickly put on his backpack, and stepped up one step at a time.
Zhou Jue frowned and asked, "Why are you so slow, haven't you rested yet?"
Fat San looked at Chen Hao, and he smiled awkwardly, "I'm urgent to urinate, I can't hold it in."
Zhou Jue sighed and said, "You are the only one who has a lot to do."
Fat San smiled and patted Zhou Jue on the back. When Chen Hao turned around, he whispered in Zhou Jue's ear: "I'll run back when something goes wrong. I made supplies and left a pack of climbing bags." rope."
Zhou Jue looked at Fat San in astonishment, while Fat San smiled wryly and said, "I don't trust people as much as you do, but I believe in my brothers. If something really happens here, let's run back, at least Just like Guo Lao and Lao Zhao, it's better than hiccups. Brother, we are too young to die for no apparent reason."
Fat San patted Zhou Jue and said, "Go, let's follow."
The two quickly followed Chen Hao. Chen Hao was so focused on finding the traces left by Guo Pu that he didn't notice their movements. Zhou Jue looked at Chen Hao and felt very uncomfortable in his heart, as if he felt betrayed. This man, he bit his lip. When he was staring at Chen Hao's back, he found that Chen Hao's arm seemed to shake unnaturally, and then a lot of black hair protruded from his arm. Taking a deep breath, Fat San quickly asked, "What's wrong?"
Zhou Jue took a closer look, and the weird black hair protruded not only from his arm, but even from the gap in the backpack. Zhou Jue felt that Chen Hao couldn't get rid of it as if he was entangled in a bunch of hair.But the more he didn't say anything, his eyes were still fixed on the tomb passage, not letting go of any possible clues.
At this time, Fat San said quietly: "Second brother, this Chen Hao may not be the rogue teacher we know..."
Zhou Jue's heart was like a deep pool that was smashed open by a stone. He looked at Fat San, and Fat San's expression was also very ugly. He said, "Second, although I don't want to hit you, should you ask me?" What happened during the time he disappeared? I think we..."
Zhou Jue was silent. He looked at Chen Hao's back desperately looking for clues, and he smiled wryly: "Fat San, if, I mean, if something happens, you can run back and leave me alone."
Fat San was stunned, and immediately lowered his voice and said impatiently: "Your brain is caught by the door again, I prepared two sets of tools, fuck it, you..."
Zhou Jue pointed at Chen Hao's back and said, "I will be with him. If he goes out, I will go out too. If he can't go out... Promise me to take care of my parents."
Fat San wanted to say something, but Zhou Jue trotted to catch up with Chen Hao. Fat San opened his mouth to watch, he touched his mouth and sighed, and stepped forward.
Chen Hao took the torch and shone it on all the surroundings. The moss on the edge of the passage became less and less as he walked in, and the blue-gray slate had a dull luster. Zhou Jue said, "Brother Chen, I think this blue slate is getting more It's getting darker?"
Just when the three thin monkeys also met those strange people, Zhou Jue and the other three wanted to get rid of the pursuit as soon as possible.The three of Zhou Jue strenuously marched towards the tomb passage, they dared not look back.But this road is a slope. The further you go down, the deeper the water will be. In the end, the three of them are basically swimming like dogs.The equipment on their bodies weighed them very hard, just like buffaloes dragging a bunch of trains.
Fat San held the back of his head and said, "Why do I feel like this place doesn't look like a tomb passage?"
Zhou Jue pulled him and said, "Listen, there is movement!"
The three stopped splashing the water, and they found that there seemed to be the sound of boating on the opposite side, which was very rhythmic.
Fat Three said, "The Ferryman from Hell?"
Chen Hao looked behind him, and there seemed to be something floating in the water behind him, and when he looked carefully, he found a large piece of blood, which was smelly and smelly, Chen Hao said: "Go ahead, those strange things behind are still there. "
This sentence brought the three of them back to the reality of fleeing for their lives, but after swimming like this for more than half an hour, they still couldn't see the end, and there was no fork in the road.More like a sewer than a sewer.Everyone was exhausted. Zhou Jue felt like he was participating in a triathlon after just climbing and now swimming, but he couldn't stop.Because they could still vaguely hear the creepy bell, they knew that those things behind had followed.
Just when their speed was getting slower and slower, Chen Hao, who was swimming in the front, suddenly stopped his movements. He said, "Sure enough, Guo Pu built his tomb in the water. It seems that it is said that Guo Pu's tomb was built in the water. That's right. This is the real Xuanwu Lake, the underground Xuanwu Lake. The places Huzi talked about in the book correspond one by one."
Zhou Jue raised his head and found that this passage was indeed just a small waterway, and at the end was a huge lake.The sound of the tide formed by the lake water resounded in the ears, it was like a huge inland lake, Zhou Jue estimated in his heart that the water power could generate electricity.
Fat San opened his mouth and said, "This...here?"
Zhou Jue immediately looked up at the sky, but there was still no sunshine.He said: "This is an underground lake. How could there be such a large underground lake here?"
Chen Hao said: "It is possible that Guo Pu's lifelong attainments are actually reflected in the word water, Feng Shui Feng Shui, wind is born and water rises, and wind also works to make water rise, which is to pay attention to a life. Look here It is full of tension of movement. And such a large water source also protects the whole tomb. He uses the water to provide the vitality needed by the whole tomb, including the organs in the princess tomb, the stone wall waterfall in front of us and the heavy rain They all rely on the power of this lake. As long as there is this lake, then these two tombs are alive."
Zhou Jue took a flashlight and looked around, he said, "But it's all water, there are no graves at all."
Fat San said, "Could it be down there?"
Zhou Jue shook his head. He looked at his watch and said, "Looking at the water, I don't know how deep it is. If the tomb is really under the ground and we don't have diving equipment, a few meters at most is the limit. If you go down, you'll just wait for it to explode." .”
Fat San said: "But there is nothing like a grave in the surrounding area, only underwater is possible. It's over, we are not prepared enough, it is impossible to go down." But even though he said that, he still did not give up. He found a stone by the side, and he threw it forward after he finished speaking, and he heard the sound of the stone thud, his expression was exactly the same as that of Zhu Bajie in Journey to the West, who was like a quicksand river hitting a stone.
Chen Hao just looked at the lake quietly, he didn't participate in the conversation between the two, suddenly he let out a surprise, and then he swam to the middle of the water talking to himself, Fat San and Zhou Jue looked at each other, and the same thing happened. followed.But Fat San was not good at swimming in the first place, plus his physical strength was exhausted, in the end it was almost Zhou Jue who pulled him forward, but Chen Hao suddenly stopped in the middle, he looked ahead, and then looked back.
He suddenly said, "Do you feel that the water here is different?"
Zhou Jue suddenly understood what he meant, and he said, "At first, the water flowed from east to west. But here it seems to be moving in the opposite direction. What's going on? It's also Guo Pu's spell. Is it?"
Chen Hao shook his head and said: "No, the water flow is affected by the gravity of the earth, causing the water to flow to a lower place. That is to say, there is a watershed at the intersection point where the water flows are opposite. Variety."
After finishing speaking, Chen Hao went back and forth in this area for a few times, like catching fish.Suddenly he stopped at a point and said: "This is right here, you come to me."
Zhou Jue pulled Fat San, who had no strength, to swim towards Chen Hao, and only then did he realize that something was wrong, Chen Hao didn't keep floating according to the waves, he was standing upright in the water.Suddenly he understood what he meant before, and he hurriedly dragged Fat Sanyou to Chen Hao, and he found that there was actually a land in this area, and they could step on it.
Chen Hao said: "This is probably the highest point of the rammed earth layer of Guo Pu's tomb palace. And it seems to be quite large. The entire underground palace has already changed the water potential of this underground lake. It's almost like a bowl is buckled underneath. .It's 45:[-] and we don't have much time to dawdle."
After speaking, he took out a bundle of things from his backpack, Zhou Jue took a closer look, and almost fell into the lake from the puddle.He asked, "Where did you get the explosives?"
While setting up the detonator, Chen Hao glanced at him and said, "If it wasn't for the explosives, I would go to Guo Mei and the others? I can get all the equipment, but I don't have such high skills to get explosives. Don't talk nonsense. Quickly help. If you don’t want to help, just step aside and give me a rest.”
Zhou Jue really moved away very honestly, Chen Hao's hand holding the detonator stopped in the middle, he looked at Zhou Jue, Zhou Jue smiled embarrassedly and said: "I thought you were real Let me rest."
Chen Hao silently withdrew the detonator in his hand and glared at him, but couldn't say anything.
Fat San finally regained his strength at this time. He looked at the things in Chen Hao's hands and said worriedly: "Add explosives? What if it collapses? The water will have to submerge the tomb."
Chen Hao said: "It's not that simple. If a dynamite can destroy Guo Pu's tomb, then his "Funeral Book" will be written for nothing."
Fat San struggled: "What if it's over?"
Chen Hao was stunned for a moment: "Then let us pay him with our lives."
After speaking, he took a breath and plunged his whole body into the water.Soon he came up again and said to the other two, "Get out of the way."
The three of them spread out towards the lake when they heard a muffled sound.Then the water flow found a vortex but it disappeared soon, and the water was still swaying very regularly.Sure enough, this tomb is like a bronze saint fighting the Pope, without any response.
The three of them looked at each other, and they found that a hole the size of a tank mouth had indeed been blasted at the bottom of the water, but the grave did not receive the slightest impression.In other words, the opening seemed to be painted on, without affecting the overall structure at all.
Zhou Jue couldn't help sighing, "Awesome..."
Chen Hao said: "You don't want to follow, wait until I go down to have a look." After speaking, he dived in.After a full 5 minutes, I heard Chen Hao say: "Come down."
Zhou Jue and Fat San looked at it, and Fat San said, "Well, I'm rather awkward in shape, or I'll get off first, and you push me?"
Zhou Jue rolled his eyes and replied: "You should eat less after you know it. You don't want to be a human being with a cork stuck in this hole. It's really waterproof."
Fat San sighed helplessly, took a breath, and with his blushing face desperately squeezed in, finally he was squeezed in too.
Then Zhou Jue threw the luggage in first, and just as he was about to enter, he seemed to find blisters on the surface of the water. He was attracted by the movement, and at that moment he felt as if there was something under the water Shake again.He shouted into the cave: "Wait for me, I see something under the water."
After speaking, he jumped into the water at once. The water near the underground palace was very turbid, and the flashlight in Zhou Jue's hand was not a wolf's eye, so the visibility was very low. Suddenly he found that there seemed to be something alive swimming under the water. In the past, the speed was very fast, but it looked like a person, at least Zhou Jue saw the pair of feet.But before he could take a closer look, he was dragged up from behind. He looked up and found that it was Chen Hao. Chen Hao said angrily, "What are you doing? We've run out of time. You still have thoughts Playing a breath-holding game?"
Zhou Jue wiped his face and said, "No, there is a person below, I suspect that it's not just the three of us who came in."
Chen Hao looked at the water, his eyes flickered slightly, he reached out to touch the backpack, and said: "No matter, go in first, I also found a big secret inside."
The three of them got into the hole, and Zhou Jue finally understood why the roof wouldn't collapse. When they entered, they found that there were actually many water tanks and very exaggerated water pipes, which guided all the water from the bottom out. And this water pipe also played a fixed role.
Zhou Jue sighed, "How on earth is this made? It's amazing to build this thing underwater."
Chen Hao said: "Underwater tombs are actually not uncommon in China. The water in this lake is obviously guided artificially. I guess they built the tomb first. Once Guo Pu hung up, they dug a canal and filled it with groundwater. It is the first layer of anti-theft measures." Bar."
Chen Hao pointed to the front with a flashlight and said: "Look, there is a road ahead, there is a passage beside it, and there are torches to light it up. Guo Pu did all this as if he hoped that someone would come in. He seemed to be waiting for someone to come in." .”
After speaking, he pointed to the distance ten steps ahead, Zhou Jue fixed his eyes and found it, and said, "There is also a hole that was blown out!"
Chen Hao took a photo with a flashlight, and he said, "That's right, I found that the hole is not as big as we exploded, and the power of gunpowder is not as strong as ours, but they are more professional than us. I guess it is Cuiniang and the others. Came in. Looks like we're on the right track."
After finishing speaking, he walked around the cave and said, "Look, these water columns remove a lot of lake water, which is why the stone wall waterfall we saw earlier is formed. I think this stone wall waterfall will form again soon."
Fat San gasped and said, "Is this the big secret you're talking about?"
Chen Hao shook his head. He pointed to the edge of the robbery cave and said, "In the book, Lin Xu, Cuiniang, Liu Fei, Feng Luxi, and Qier entered the ancient tomb at the end. There are five people in total, but you see." He pointed to the bottom of the sink and said: "There are torches on the walls here. They are different from us modern people. Flashlights have not been popularized yet. They will definitely use those torches. If they take less, it can be explained that this person There is no way to take things with both hands, but now someone has taken an extra torch."
Fat San said: "Maybe it's a backup?"
Chen Hao said: "It's unlikely, because the size of this thing is too big. It's not easy to hold, but it will cause a burden."
Zhou Jue looked at the rows of torches beside him and said, "There is another possibility, a total of 6 people entered."
Fat San said: "Damn, that person didn't appear in the story? Why didn't he mention it in the novel?"
Zhou Jue said angrily, "Hey, it's a pity that Lin Xu is no longer here, otherwise we can directly ask him for confirmation."
Chen Hao grinned, revealing a very unnatural smile.But soon he returned to his original serious expression, Zhou Jue asked him what was wrong, Chen Hao covered his chin and said directly: "If it is true that six people came in, the person who has not appeared is the key, and there is Among these people, why did they deliberately hide Lin Xu in the first place? In the end, what Lin Xu didn’t know. I think what happened when I first entered the Princess Grave, the original seven people are actually very important .”
Zhou Jue and Fat San shook their heads silently, and Chen Hao said: "Let's continue to follow their footsteps. We will know what they encountered."
Chen Hao squeezed the torch: "Don't waste the battery, we can also use this for lighting."
The passage here is not so much an underground passage as it looks like a waterworks.There are a lot of water tanks, plus the hole Chen Hao blasted and the explosion caused by Cui Niang and her group decades ago, only half of the water tanks were irrigated.But in other words, it is estimated that there will be danger here two more times.Because the water pipes are not fast enough to clear the water, these tanks cannot store so much lake water, and when the tanks overflow, then this place will also collapse.
Fat San said: "It seems that the Feng Shui master also miscalculated. You can see that it is enough to let people come in four times. If you do it twice, this place will be finished."
Chen Hao snorted and sneered: "No, I have seen it, we are only in the outermost waterproof protection area of the rammed earth layer, as long as this place collapses, we will not be able to find the real entrance to the underground palace at all. It becomes the core wrapped in a pile of ruins, and unless a national organization digs it, it is impossible to find the entrance. To put it bluntly, we haven’t reached the underground palace yet. That’s why I said we have to hurry up.”
Zhou Jue said with a guilty conscience: "If we happen to be the fifth batch, what we are facing now is a pile of ruins."
Chen Hao said: "It can be said that, and the lake water does not change direction casually. I think the use of its tidal effect can make the two tombs interact, so the so-called Bureau of the Five Elements is the combination of the movement of the lake water. The landscape here, the changes that have occurred."
Fat San said foolishly: "So it's not so magical? I thought it was really a divine help?"
Chen Hao said: "It doesn't necessarily mean that there is no ghost. In short, let's go on. Now it seems that the book Ring of Seven is a reminder to us, and it is also a misleading one."
Zhou Jue picked up the torch next to him and said, "Two ghosts, right, okay, let's go."
And just after the three of them entered the tunnel of the ancient tomb, the originally turbulent lake began to bubble up, rolling like boiling water, suddenly the bell rang, and ghost cries rang through the entire lake with the arrival of those seven people , but after the seven weirdos rushed to the surface of the lake, they did not move forward. The person who took the lead bowed and knelt on the surface of the water, and his body seemed to be floating on the surface of the water, and then all seven people knelt Pour on the lake.The sound of the bell stopped suddenly, and then there was a deathly calm, but slowly blood continued to overflow from the bodies of these seven people, and the lake water under them was gradually soaked into deep red.And those seven people also melted into this blood, extending towards Guo Pu's tomb.
7:30 Princess Tomb
Inside the Princess Grave, the thin monkey pulled the latch tremblingly. His hands shook so badly that he could hardly pull the latch. They all turned in, and then rolled on the ground in pain, and the inside of the door was completely dark. Although there were no monsters rushing out, it was impossible to see whether there was any danger. The thin monkey looked at the man who was slowly walking towards them. Those monsters, Ye Wei, the arm he grabbed with his teeth, rushed into the door together with him.
He closed the door with all his strength, and the whole person slid down. He said to his back in fear: "Fuck, the door is latched on the outside, and it can't be locked inside."
Ye Wei covered his eyes, but instead he grabbed the thin monkey's arm and pulled him up, saying: "Then run, as long as you leave them, I can see."
The thin monkey looked at Feng Laojiu, who was rolling on the ground, and Ye Wei, whose face was bloodstained, and said desperately: "Damn, go, run in." After speaking, he dragged Feng Laojiu and ran in. Depressedly cursed: "I can't see, and you won't help me?"
The thin monkey said: "Didn't you see that I don't have a third hand? Don't talk about holding me, I will lead you to run forward. Stop talking nonsense and run for your life."
The three of them dragged and pulled, almost fleeing like fleeing. I don't know how many ways they ran. The thin monkey just felt that he was going straight forward, and he never saw any fork in the road. Ye Wei finally shouted: "Stop, I can see now."
Because of the heavy burden, the thin monkey almost squatted on the ground panting: "Hey, what's going on here?"
Ye Wei said: "Fortunately, they are slow to move because they are condensed by blood. Otherwise, if some monkey or leopard comes, we will be dead by now."
The thin monkey stood up staggeringly. He grabbed Ye Wei by the collar and said, "Tell me, how much do you know? I'm not that boy Zhou Jue. My patience is at the end now. You know so much, there must be something for you. You Didn't it mean that your family knows the details about this princess?"
Ye Wei did not push Shouhou's hand away, but held it instead. His hand was as cold as if it had no body temperature. Shouhou looked at him and said forcefully, "What do you want?"
Ye Wei said: "If you want to live to the end, you'd better not mess with me, you don't know your own situation at all. Don't forget that I can save you, but I can only save you. That princess was The people of the Li tribe, they helped the new generation of emperors, and chose Liu Yu. But in the end Liu Yu crossed the river and demolished the bridge, and wiped them out, it was that simple." After speaking, he glanced at Feng Laojiu who was lying on the side, Feng Laojiu didn't care, he just stared at the depths of the tomb passage.
The thin monkey's originally calm emotions were ignited by him all of a sudden, and he sent Ye Wei flying with one punch, Ye Wei stood up unsteadily again, his expression was a little different, the empty eye sockets A bitterness flowed out, and he smiled wryly: "Among these people, the only one I feel hesitant about is you. If you can give me the same trust and devotion as your brothers, maybe..."
At this moment, Ye Wei squatted down clutching his chest. Ye Wei thought he had a heart attack. He remembered that he had coughed like a tuberculosis. The thin monkey asked worriedly: "Are you okay, do you have a heart attack?" Ah? You said earlier that I would give you a hand too.
Ye Wei immediately grabbed his arm, and the thin monkey felt his hands trembling badly. Ye Wei looked at the thin monkey with painful eyes, and the thin monkey's heart softened. He squatted down and wanted to help Ye Wei up, but unexpectedly But Ye Wei grabbed the thin monkey, opened his mouth and sealed the thin monkey's lips, the thin monkey's brain roared, and for a moment he even forgot the instinctive scud, he opened his eyes Ye Wei, Ye Wei's eyes gradually changed from The slack pain turned into that kind of indifference without waves.And the thin monkey finally raised a punch and sent Ye Wei flying, he was so angry that he rushed forward to beat him, but Feng Laojiu grabbed the thin monkey and said: "Don't do bad things, we have to rely on him to complete the ceremony. "
The face of the thin monkey was trembling, and he roared: "Get out, I will kill you when you get out. You wait to buy a coffin, you pervert."
Feng Laojiu stood up with difficulty, he clutched his chest and coughed violently: "Stop talking nonsense with him, let's go..."
The thin monkey closed his eyes, took several deep breaths, and finally cursed: "I will bear with you one last time, if you do that kind of fucking thing again, I will destroy you."
Ye Wei still had no expression in his eyes, he just wiped the corner of his mouth and said: "I said that the only one who can save you is me. Can you still count on him?"
The thin monkey closed his eyes and pointed at Ye Wei and nodded desperately. He raised his thumb and said, "Okay, you're really fucking good. I'll see how long you can go crazy." .
Feng Laojiu glanced at Ye Wei, he just said lightly: "Why didn't you tell him, there is nothing you can do if you do that, if..."
Ye Wei interrupted him: "Since we all have a purpose, don't expose each other. As for him, I will let him get out alive. And you must stay here."
Feng Laojiu looked at Ye Wei suspiciously, and said, "I'm afraid it's not your turn to decide."
Ye Wei clutched his chest, his eyes showed a sense of tenacity indifferently, and said in a low voice, "This time, I can."
Feng Laojiu snorted nonchalantly: "Then it depends on your ability, Young Master Ye."
Ye Wei glanced at him and said, "Let's go. Then it's time for the Guhunpo in your hand to play its role."
9:04 Guo Pu Tomb
Chen Hao turned sideways, carefully opened the waterproof backpack, took out dry clothes from inside and said, "Put on some clothes and move on. We don't have time to dry clothes."
Zhou Jue also took out spare clothes from his bag. Chen Hao saw that they were starting to put on clothes, so he quickly organized the equipment. Holding Guo Pu's white jade wat board in his hand, he said, "According to the map of Furong, the location of Guo Pu's tomb is It has been determined, and we are at the top of the tomb, similar to the top of the pyramid, and the tomb must be at the bottom. And this thing, what is its function?"
Fat San changed his clothes, threw the wet clothes aside and said, "But we don't know where his dead body is lying?"
Chen Hao had already packed his luggage at this time. Although he took out his clothes, his backpack was still bulging. He put the white jade wat board and the ring of seven with many black hairs on the top of the backpack. He said: "We are not going to pay homage to his remains, our purpose is to find the tomb wall that can unravel the resurrection technique of the Li tribe, and looking at Guo Pu like this, it is estimated that he guessed that today is the day before setting up the tomb wall." In this series of rounds, in fact, his purpose is not to tie us up, but to use various methods to stop the seven plague gods behind us."
Zhou Jue read the inscription on the wat board: "I am leaving Fang Yan in disorder, and I will leave with my life. Qianbo resents Qingyang, Lingu Yu bandits rest. The voice of the deceased is still dark, and the children and grandchildren are forbidden again. The long way is far away, Yin and yang double evil knot. Qianbo... Does this poem have other hints?"
Chen Hao said: "Since Guo Pu intends to guide future generations to enter, there must be a place to remind us. Now this path is correct. We are already in Guo Pu's tomb. As long as we go down, we will know the truth." .”
Fat San hissed at this moment and said: "But, I have never figured out which ones are right in that book. I always feel that there is something wrong."
Chen Hao said: "The so-called mistakes can only be confirmed if we find the real answer. Now we know only these points. Such seven evil spirits. So he used his own tomb to set up such a final barrier and final sealing method for people like us, and the second is Cui Niang and the others, a total of six people came in, who is that person?"
After speaking, he lit the torch. The torch was very primitive, and the original oil inside it had evaporated. Chen Hao opened the side pocket of the backpack and took out a bottle and said, "This is liquid fuel, just dip a little bit of waste cloth in it. "
So the three of them held each other's hands and walked towards the depths of the tomb passage.Fat San, who was walking at the back, watched Chen Hao and Zhou Jue walking some distance away, and he immediately took out a small sealed bag from his bag and stuffed it in the corner.And he took out a white marker from his body to make a mark. He looked at the person in front of him, quickly put on his backpack, and stepped up one step at a time.
Zhou Jue frowned and asked, "Why are you so slow, haven't you rested yet?"
Fat San looked at Chen Hao, and he smiled awkwardly, "I'm urgent to urinate, I can't hold it in."
Zhou Jue sighed and said, "You are the only one who has a lot to do."
Fat San smiled and patted Zhou Jue on the back. When Chen Hao turned around, he whispered in Zhou Jue's ear: "I'll run back when something goes wrong. I made supplies and left a pack of climbing bags." rope."
Zhou Jue looked at Fat San in astonishment, while Fat San smiled wryly and said, "I don't trust people as much as you do, but I believe in my brothers. If something really happens here, let's run back, at least Just like Guo Lao and Lao Zhao, it's better than hiccups. Brother, we are too young to die for no apparent reason."
Fat San patted Zhou Jue and said, "Go, let's follow."
The two quickly followed Chen Hao. Chen Hao was so focused on finding the traces left by Guo Pu that he didn't notice their movements. Zhou Jue looked at Chen Hao and felt very uncomfortable in his heart, as if he felt betrayed. This man, he bit his lip. When he was staring at Chen Hao's back, he found that Chen Hao's arm seemed to shake unnaturally, and then a lot of black hair protruded from his arm. Taking a deep breath, Fat San quickly asked, "What's wrong?"
Zhou Jue took a closer look, and the weird black hair protruded not only from his arm, but even from the gap in the backpack. Zhou Jue felt that Chen Hao couldn't get rid of it as if he was entangled in a bunch of hair.But the more he didn't say anything, his eyes were still fixed on the tomb passage, not letting go of any possible clues.
At this time, Fat San said quietly: "Second brother, this Chen Hao may not be the rogue teacher we know..."
Zhou Jue's heart was like a deep pool that was smashed open by a stone. He looked at Fat San, and Fat San's expression was also very ugly. He said, "Second, although I don't want to hit you, should you ask me?" What happened during the time he disappeared? I think we..."
Zhou Jue was silent. He looked at Chen Hao's back desperately looking for clues, and he smiled wryly: "Fat San, if, I mean, if something happens, you can run back and leave me alone."
Fat San was stunned, and immediately lowered his voice and said impatiently: "Your brain is caught by the door again, I prepared two sets of tools, fuck it, you..."
Zhou Jue pointed at Chen Hao's back and said, "I will be with him. If he goes out, I will go out too. If he can't go out... Promise me to take care of my parents."
Fat San wanted to say something, but Zhou Jue trotted to catch up with Chen Hao. Fat San opened his mouth to watch, he touched his mouth and sighed, and stepped forward.
Chen Hao took the torch and shone it on all the surroundings. The moss on the edge of the passage became less and less as he walked in, and the blue-gray slate had a dull luster. Zhou Jue said, "Brother Chen, I think this blue slate is getting more It's getting darker?"
