Chen Ze and Yao Xin calmed down, then opened their eyes and looked deep into the cave.
This is a very large cave with smooth walls, making it difficult to leave footprints.
"It seems we came here in vain." Chen Ze was a little disappointed.
"Boss, why don't we walk around the area and try our luck to see if we can pick up the treasure." Yao Xin suggested.
"Okay!" Chen Ze was not willing to give up easily.
Chen Ze took Yao Xin around the cave to search. .
Chen Ze and Yao Xin walked around the cave but found nothing.
Chen Ze even dug a pit to fill in all the stone bricks to avoid long nights and dreams.
"Boss, there's something going on!" Suddenly Yao Xin called out to Chen Ze who was about to move bricks.
“What’s going on?” Chen Ze stopped moving bricks and asked.
"I just saw a bright light flashing through the gap in the stone door!" Yao Xin said.
"Quick, dig it up and take a look!" Chen Ze instantly became excited when he heard Yao Xin say this.
The two of them worked together and finally found the Shimen in the ruins.
But when Yao Xin opened the rubble, a rotting corpse was revealed. Chen Ze was stunned, "I'm going! Dead man!"
Yao Xin He glanced at the putrid corpse and said, "He seems to be quite young. I remember when we saw him in the cave yesterday, his clothes were still intact."
Chen Ze was also a little puzzled, "You said there are people here, why is there a body hidden here?"
Yao Xin shook her head, he didn't understand this question either.
"Nevermind, this is a tomb, which means there are funerary objects inside. Let's keep looking. We may have a chance to find the Dragon King's coffin!" Chen Ze was also very interested in the Dragon King's coffin.
The two began to search the cave carefully.
Chen Ze also found some footprints, which seemed to have been left just now.
"Look!" Chen Ze pointed to a corner of the cave.
"What is this? It's so disgusting!" Yao Xin said in disgust.
"Look carefully, are these human footprints?" Chen Ze pointed to the soil next to the footprints.
"Well...it seems to be really human footprints!" Yao Xin took a closer look and found that they were indeed human footprints.
Chen Ze took a look at the surrounding environment, and then continued to follow these footprints. As he went deeper, he found that there were fewer footprints, and there were regular patterns in the footprints. It looked like someone had deliberately It's like the traces have been erased.
"Strange, could it be that the owner of this footprint is the corpse just now?" Yao Xin asked doubtfully @
"Who knows! But the size of this footprint looks like that of an adult man, and we saw it on the mountainside before The corpse is also a man, so it fits this condition," Chen Ze analyzed.
"I think it's better not to worry about this. The most important thing is to find the remains of the Dragon King directly." Yao Xin is worried that the owner of this footprint is the enemy of the Dragon King. It would be terrible if a wolf is lured into the house. Although Chen Ze is very powerful, but Two fists are hard to beat with four hands. What if someone comes who is more powerful than Chen Ze? So Yao Xin didn't want Chen Ze to continue investigating to prevent unnecessary trouble.
Chen Ze pondered for a moment, "You are right. Anyway, we are just guessing, there is no evidence."
"Let's go!" Chen Ze also gave up the idea of exploring the owner of the footprints.
Chen Ze and Yao Xin continued to search inside along the footprints, but their luck plummeted. Except for a few wild fungi and mushrooms scattered here and there, they found nothing of value.
"Did we gain nothing today?" Chen Ze asked frustratedly.
"It should be right. I took a look and found that there is only this cave left here and nothing else." Yao Xin was not sure either.
Chen Ze looked at the empty cave, "Let's go! Don't worry about it. Our goal is the Dragon King's bones anyway, so don't think too much about other things."
"Alas. "Okay!" Yao Xin shrugged, and the two decided to leave the cave. However, when leaving the cave, Yao Xin unknowingly touched the top of the stone pillar next to her. Suddenly, the stone pillar made a roaring sound, which frightened Yao Xin and quickly retracted her hand.
"Boss, what the hell is this? Why is there an agency here?" Yao Xin was so frightened that her face turned pale.
"Hahaha, are you scared too?" Chen Ze smiled when he saw Yao Xin's appearance.
“You’re the one who’s scared, I’m just not used to the darkness!” Yao Xin explained, but Chen Ze didn’t believe it at all.
"Okay, this time I lose, I admit defeat, but next time I won't touch her randomly." Chen Ze patted Yao Xin on the shoulder and consoled her.
"Boss, let's leave here as soon as possible. It's eerie here and I'm a little panicked!" Yao Xin urged.
Chen Ze: "Okay, let's go back."
"Huh? Boss, look!" Chen Ze originally planned to go back, but found the entrance to the stone chamber in front of him , Chen Ze immediately became energetic.
Because the entrance is exactly the same as the stone chamber that Chen Ze encountered before, except that this stone chamber is higher and there is a stone statue standing at the door.
It’s just that this stone statue is dilapidated. Judging from its shape, it is a female sculpture, and it is still wearing Hanfu.
Yao Xin was shocked when she first saw the stone statue, because the facial features of this stone statue were eighty-nine times similar to her sister.
"Wow, boss, you are so lucky. There is actually a female sculpture here." Yao Xin said excitedly.
Chen Ze frowned and thought, because the stone statue gave Chen Ze a sense of familiarity, as if Chen Ze had seen this stone statue before.
“Could this stone statue be from our village?” Chen Ze said to himself.
But Chen Ze thought that there seemed to be no such stone statue in the village. After all, in modern society, there are no ancient houses.
"Boss, is this stone statue from our village?" Yao Xin curiously went to the stone statue and looked at it again and again, but except for the clothing and head shape of the stone statue, the rest of it was extremely unrecognizable.
"I don't know, but this stone statue looks about the same size as our ancestral home. If this is really our village, it should be a tomb." Chen Ze deduced.
"Well, should we go in and take a look?" Yao Xin suggested.
“Of course, what if it’s really a group of tombs!” Chen Ze agreed.
The two of them discussed it and set out on the journey again.
Chen Ze and Yao Xin walked cautiously, not daring to relax at all.
But when Chen Ze and Yao Xin entered the stone chamber, they were dumbfounded.
This stone chamber is the same as the one Chen Ze entered just now, except that there is a sarcophagus in the center of the stone chamber.
"Holy shit, so awesome? And a coffin?" Chen Ze was shocked.
"This is not a coffin, this is a jade bed. My grandfather said that nobles in ancient times would sleep on jade beds after death." Yao Xin explained quickly, fearing that Chen Ze would mistakenly think that his grandfather had lied to him.
"Uh...then why isn't there the stone chamber I just entered?" Chen Ze said awkwardly.
"This should be a secret base, and the stone chamber must be just for placing coffins." Yao Xin expressed her point of view.
"You're right!" Chen Ze nodded.
It’s just that both of them forgot a very fatal problem.
That is, there are no candles, no fire sources, and no oil lamps.
At this time, Chen Ze and Yao Xin were in a desperate situation. (End of this chapter)
