Looking in the direction Chen Ze pointed, I saw an arch bridge leading to the outside world. However, due to the passage of time, the arch bridge had long been broken, and the bottom of the river was covered with mud and looked dirty.
"It's really magical here. Such a large area is actually closed and there is a river. How much manpower and material resources does it cost to build such a project?" Chen Wenjin couldn't help but sigh.
The three of them walked upstream along the river. Chen Ze stepped on the ground with the soles of his feet, only to find that the soil was very hard, stronger than reinforced concrete.
This made Chen Ze even more suspicious that the owner here was a strong immortal cultivator.
Because according to common sense, this world should not have such solid soil.
Chen Ze and the other three walked along the river to the other end, and then found a pile of disorganized stones on the bank.
Yao Xin picked up a stone and found that it was actually jade!
Yao Xin picked up a piece and threw it away.
"Sister, if you throw away this piece, then we have no choice. We must continue to explore!" Chen Ze persuaded.
"Okay, let's continue walking deeper!" Yao Xin collected all the remaining stones on the ground.
Chen Ze continued to walk along the river until he reached the deepest part.
Chen Ze stood under a tall tower and looked up at the top of the tower, "Why do the patterns on this tower become more familiar to me the more I look at them?"
Chen Ze touched his chin and thought.
"Brother Chen, isn't the pattern carved on this tower a dragon?" Zhang Qiling asked curiously.
"It is possible, but it may not be, but these are all illusions, just patterns similar to symbols. Don't get entangled, let's go in quickly
have a look! "Chen Ze said to Zhang Qiling.
Zhang Qiling nodded, "I'll go in first!"
"Wait a minute, be careful. The temperature inside should be lower than outside. Don't catch a cold!" Chen Ze told Zhang Qiling.
"I know!" Zhang Qiling responded.
Then Chen Ze and Chen Wenjin slowly walked into the cave.
This time the three of them were careful. After all, it was all too incredible. Who knew what dangerous things were waiting for them here.
"Ka~"
Suddenly, Zhang Qiling touched a stone slab.
"Boom!" With a sound, Zhang Qiling's feet suddenly exploded.
Zhang Qiling was frightened and quickly retreated to Chen Ze and Chen Wenjin, and hid behind them.
"Don't worry, don't worry, it's just a bomb!" Chen Ze said calmly, as if he was talking about an insignificant matter.
"Bomb? Where? Where is it?" Zhang Qiling looked around, but did not see the shadow of the bomb.
"Here, under your feet, I just stepped on an explosive device." Chen Ze pointed to the gravel under Zhang Qiling's feet.
"Ah! Did I step on an explosive device?" Zhang Qiling looked confused.
"Yeah!" Chen Ze nodded. Chen Ze was not sure whether there was really a bomb in this place, because the placement of the rubble was very reasonable. If there was really a bomb here, then the power of ordinary bombs would definitely not be small. , and this place is at least several meters away from the surface. According to the power of ordinary bombs, Chen Ze estimates that this bomb can destroy at least 89% of this place.
"Could this be the treasure you mentioned?" Chen Wenjin pointed at the stones on the ground and said.
Zhang Qiling: “.…..”
"What are you talking about?" Chen Ze didn't understand what Chen Wenjin said.
"The treasure you just mentioned, that red coffin!" Chen Wenjin said.
"Oh, I remember!" Chen Ze remembered. When he was looking for the entrance just now, Yao Xin provided Chen Ze with many clues, including the mention of a red coffin.
At that time, Chen Ze only paid attention to the appearance of the coffin and completely forgot about its existence.
Hearing Chen Wenjin say that this thing is a treasure, Chen Ze suddenly became excited. Chen Ze couldn't wait to jump on the red coffin lid.
Chen Ze reached out and gently knocked on the coffin lid, making a "dong, dong" sound.
"Is this coffin empty?" Yao Xin asked. “I don’t know, you’ll find out when you open it and take a look.”
"That's okay!"
Zhang Qiling: "Wait! I'll come first!"
As he spoke, Zhang Qiling pulled out a saber from his waist.
Zhang Qiling inserted the saber into the coffin board and turned it vigorously, but it was of no use, not even a groove was left.
Zhang Qiling used all his strength again and finally pried a corner of the coffin.
Zhang Qiling was about to pry open the coffin, but something unexpected happened——
"Bang bang bang!"
Three shots!
These three shots were fired at Chen Ze and the others almost simultaneously.
"Lie down!"
Chen Ze shouted, pulling Chen Wenjin and Zhang Qiling to squat down.
"Bang bang bang!" Three muffled sounds came.
Chen Ze looked back and saw that the bullet hit the spot where the three of them were just standing.
Chen Ze was extremely happy in his heart. If Chen Ze had been a step later, he would have been penetrated by a bullet at this moment.
"Brother Chen, what should we do?" Zhang Qiling asked in shock.
Chen Ze groaned: "Wait!"
Chen Ze believed that there must be more than one road to this cave, otherwise there would be no way to get here.
"You two protect yourselves, I'll go check out the situation ahead!" Chen Ze warned Zhang Qiling and Chen Wenjin.
The two women nodded. Although they were also scared, they could only rely on each other now, because only by relying on each other could they survive.
The three of them each guarded one side, and Chen Ze was alert to the surroundings to prevent any enemies from sneaking up on them.
Chen Ze walked for a while in the cave and then stopped.
"Did you find anything?" Seeing Chen Ze stopped, Zhang Qiling couldn't help but ask.
"Shh!" Chen Ze made a silencing gesture.
Zhang Qiling saw Chen Ze's serious expression and quickly shut up, then raised his ears and listened carefully to the sounds around him.
"Wow wow~" Chen Ze heard the sound of water.
Chen Ze walked towards the source of the sound.
"You two wait here while I go explore the way." Chen Ze told the two women. Chen Ze knew that there must be some kind of mechanism hidden nearby.
Zhang Qiling and Chen Wenjin nodded. They were both timid and cautious people and did not dare to go in hastily because this place was extremely weird and no one knew what would happen inside.
Chen Ze carefully walked to the corner of the cave and slid down the wall.
As soon as Chen Ze landed, he felt an icy chill rushing towards his face. Chen Ze couldn't help but shake his body.
Chen Ze looked around and saw that this was a huge cave, and there were countless bones around the cave.
Some died miserably, with their eyes exposed and glowing green; some were rotten and bloody; there were also shriveled remains of rats, lizards, scorpions and other reptiles...
All in all, this is a disgusting place filled with the smell of corpses.
Chen Ze swallowed and then moved forward slowly.
Chen Ze thought of the TV series. In ancient times, some emperors liked to engage in sacrificial burial activities, burying the bodies of some dead concubines or concubines in some secret pits. Some of these pits were used for sacrifices, and some were used for burial. To cover up, some are used to raise Gu. In short, no matter what the purpose is, it has a use anyway. (End of chapter)
