Chapter 336 Counterattack at the End of the Tunnel
“Yes, Dongxia is a small border country, but this place is an imperial mausoleum, not a place for children’s play.”
“All the victims were buried in the burial pit. The quantity and decoration of the items are all very particular. If anyone dares to act so recklessly, the Nine Clans will have their heads chopped off by Emperor Wannu!"
The fat man also knew this and found it strange.
You know, the ancients were very particular about the afterlife and there could be no mistakes.
The arrangement of all things has its own knowledge.
Feng Shui and tombology are very rigorous studies. If something is slightly wrong, a good auspicious point will turn into a bad point.
This is no joke.
“These things should be guarding something underground. As for what they are specifically, what do you think?”
Hu Ming was silent.
King Wannu's Dongxia Dynasty has been stationed here since the Western King's motherland split.
This time can be traced back to four to five thousand years ago, and its origin time far exceeds the era recorded in the so-called history.
However, in the distant era, the Dongxia Dynasty did not exist, but existed as a tribe.
“I guess?”
Wu Xie and others looked at the showy Hu Ming with dark expressions on their faces, feeling unsatisfied.
To be honest, Wu Xie was really tired of being "played" and led by the nose by Wu Sansheng in various ways. Wu Xie was really tired of this kind of showdown, knowing everything but unwilling to say it.
But there was nothing he could do. Wu Xie thought about it and found sadly that neither his third uncle nor Hu Ming could do anything about it.
“I agree with your third uncle on one point. My eldest nephew, there are too many secrets in this world, and many shocking events are buried in the torrent of time.”
“ Knowing too much is really not a good thing. If you still want to be innocent, don't be so persistent for a long time."
"Of course, if you are determined and prepared. , just pretend I didn’t say anything.”
Hu Ming smiled. He understood Wu Xie's feelings. This feeling of not knowing anything, being confused and unable to move forward was not pleasant.
But to be honest, innocence is not a kind of happiness?
Many times, people just know too much and are just looking for trouble.
But Hu Ming could never do that. For the so-called good of others, he forced others to walk the route he had arranged.
Wu Xie is free to do whatever he wants.
"Panzi, have you seen the direction of the water in the moat back then?"
"Following the canal water to the end, our direction of progress is undoubtedly the direction of the river water."
>Patting Wu Xie, who looked heavy, Hu Ming came to Panzi and asked.
Panzi used to be in the field army, the type who had participated in actual combat. It was a basic skill to identify the past flow of the river from the dry river bed.
"Well, looking at the traces of water erosion on the stone figures, the direction of the water flow should be the direction they are facing..."
Panzi nodded and said affirmatively.
"That's good, just take a short rest and let's move on."
Nodding, Hu Ming said softly.
Thinking about it carefully, everyone has not rested for more than a day since they walked all the way through the secret passage under the Little Saint Snow Mountain Spiritual Palace.
After resting for a while, they organized their equipment and then moved forward again. Strangely enough, since arriving at the bottom of this moat, the human-faced birds hovering in the sky have lost their traces and given up hunting everyone.
It was as if there was something at the bottom of the river that frightened them from the bottom of their hearts.
Going all the way along the river bottom, there are human and horse figurines everywhere along the way.
These sculptures all face one direction, gradually going deeper into the ground.
In the end, all that was presented to Hu Ming and others was a head.
Part of the body was buried deep underground.
It is as if the direction of these human and horse warriors is towards the invisible deep underground.
“We’re here!”
Suddenly, Hu Ming, who was walking at the front of the team, stopped and waved to the people behind him.
At this time, the river channel has reached the end, and the team of human figurines has long disappeared. In front of it is a huge stone river wall blocking the way forward.
At the base of the stone wall, there is a square hole that is mostly buried by rubble.
The stone has been moved away a lot, revealing a dark hole.
“Another tunnel for counterattack?”, Pan Zi said in surprise: “How come the opening is here? This is impossible.”
“How can it be impossible? It’s not you. "Cultivation."
The fat man instinctively disagreed with Panzi. "No, what I mean is that this place was underwater back then, and this tunnel was at the bottom of the river. It must have been filled with river water. Do you think Wang Zanghai is a fish?"
Panzi shook his head and said.
When he got here, he was getting closer to Wu Sansheng, and he had no intention of arguing with the fat man.
“Have you forgotten the robber cave in King Lu’s Palace? It used to be a water robber cave. The inside of this cave must be the same as the one there. There are air hole structures that have been replaced at every other section.”
Hu Ming explained casually.
"Uncle Ming, Panzi, Fatty, come and see, there is something here!"
At this time, Wu Xie spoke.
The searchlight shone over and saw someone roughly carving a few words on the stone on one side of the entrance to the square cave.
It is an English alphabet with no structure and no grammar at all.
"Do you think this is the mark left by our third uncle for us, telling us the direction of progress?"
Wu Xie guessed.
"It's impossible. You don't know, Junior Third Master. Third Master once said that he didn't know English."
Panzi shook his head and denied. He has been with Wu Sansheng for more than ten years. He knows very well. Wu Sansheng was good at various cipher texts of the ancient Celestial Dynasty, but he had some talent for foreign languages. Wu Sansheng once told him that he did not know English.
"This is what the little brother left behind." Hu Ming glanced at Fanzi, and then said softly.
Hu Ming didn’t believe what Fanzi said at all. You know, Wu Sansheng had gone to college and graduated successfully! Don’t know English? What a fuss!
As for the one in front of me, I guess it is really left by my little brother!
In the undersea tomb, Wu Xie and the others had seen the mark left by their little brother, but they just didn't remember it for a while.
