Chapter 289: Exploring Qiongzhu Temple at Night 3
Jiang Mingan: "You see, your brother Xie is quite powerful in his heresy."
"Ahem...what are you saying bad things about me? Don't think that my ears are not good, my hearing is good."
Jiang Mingan was not embarrassed at all by being bumped into, and answered with a smile: "No, I'm complimenting you!"
"We're here, wait a minute, I'll light a torch before we go down."
It is not easy to make a homemade torch. You need all the materials. Xie Yunhai just picked it up and lit it. It must have been dropped when the previous person moved it away.
The firewood soaked in diesel is easy to ignite, and the bright light instantly ignites in the dark night, and the flames are moving and it is a joy.
"Okay, brother, you do the lifting, and I'll find the agency."
"You are quite familiar with it."
"Brother, I ran away from home at the age of fourteen. I have gone through dog holes countless times. Finding a place like this is not a piece of cake. It's not like stealing an emperor's tomb. I really don't have the ability to do that.
If you touch it, it will sink in everywhere, and you will get bent in if you are not careful.”
"Okay, stop talking. If this place is really related to Liu Kai and his group, they will probably be trapped."
"Yes, I listen to my brother!"
Jiang Mingyue: "..." Well, there's nothing wrong with her. It seems like she just needs to be a quiet background.
It is rare that the Arhat statues in the main hall have not been smashed by others, and they are still standing in the hall. Xie Yunhai circled them a few times, and his eyes fell on the banana fan of the banana Arhat. When the fire came over, there was a picture in other places.
It was covered with dust, but the fan was clean. Xie Yunhai held the handle of the fan and fanned it, and the fan indeed moved.
The second time, the fan moved even more.
The third blow was "Boom", and the whole Buddha statue moved. Jiang Mingan had quick eyes and quick hands, and pulled the person aside. He saw a cannon barrel mounted on the door of the main hall, but the barrel was filled with arrows, and the banana fan triggered the mechanism.
, several small mechanisms connected to it will transmit the touch to the door head, and then be triggered by the fulcrum of the barrel. The fuel previously installed at the bottom of the barrel will spontaneously ignite instantly and turn into kinetic energy to push the rotating shaft. Finally, the mechanism is activated, and the arrow points towards the
It shot out in the direction set in advance.
"One, two... ten, tsk tsk! This is trying to kill people from all directions! If you don't pull me today, brother, I will be buried here. I can't repay the kindness of saving my life, just..."
"Shut up! Even if I don't pull you, won't you avoid it? Stop talking and be more careful."
It seems that mental power detection is not omnipotent. Just now, we did not detect any such device that could kill people.
If Brother Xie is shot down, he will fall into the cellar below. There will be a net waiting for him below, and he will be captured alive even if he doesn't die.
"It seems that we have to find another entrance."
Xie Yunhai thought thoughtfully: "Let me tell you, it's not like Liu Kai is stupid, so why would he leave such a flaw?"
Next, everyone looked more carefully.
Jiang Ming'an noticed the lottery tube thrown casually in the corner, picked it up and shook it for a few times, and was about to let the lottery drop when he suddenly realized something was wrong.
"Huh?"
"What's wrong?"
Jiang Mingan turned over all the twenty-four signatures, and found that they were all exactly the same.
"One hundred industries are the first, and all evils are laziness. How can I engrave the words of Mr. Liang on the sign? What the hell?"
Xie Yunhai came over and grabbed one, remembering a story.
"When I was very young, my dad would take me to Wuliu Lane whenever he had free time. You may not know this, because that place has now been bulldozed and the new Nanxicheng Primary School was built on its foundation, but the old
People of the entire generation know that there are some old men and their grandsons who gather there in the evening with big teapots. Every night there are gentlemen who tell stories for free. The stories they tell include the classic story of the three sworn brothers in Taoyuan, and the story of Nanxi at that time.
Stories spread in the streets of the city.
For example, "Lady Zhang's Willow Sweeper" was secretly circulated by many people at that time. The reason was not that the story was so shocking, but that the story had a catchy title. Let me ask you, did you think of something when you heard the title?
That lady Zhang’s husband is not a good person and does what Chen Shimei does?
No, Mrs. Zhang slapped her husband because he was too lazy. He could go half a year without washing his hair, and his body could go a year without washing. In short, his laziness reached a new level. At that time, my dad reminded me that when I grow up, I will not wash my hair.
Don't imitate that husband. When the time comes, your wife will chase you all over the street and slap you, and you will lose all your dignity."
"Lazy?" Jiang Ming Anfu was in his heart, pointing to a large number of carved pictures of ladies and scholars, "Look, is that lady holding a wicker in her hand? Is it like the story of "Mrs. Zhang's Willow Sweeper" by the storyteller back then? And this
The main hall was added to the temple more than ten years ago, so the time matches when the story was in its prime?"
"That makes sense! Brother, just wait, I'll find some stairs."
After a while, the stairs came. It must be said that Xie Yunhai was indeed the number one person on the street. He was familiar with everything and knew the way better than the owner.
When the stairs were set up, Jiang Ming'an held his ground, and Xie Yunhai climbed up. He rubbed the carved paintings, and sure enough, the mechanism was triggered on Madam Zhang's wicker.
"Rumble..." This time it wasn't that a black hole suddenly appeared for hunting, but the wall on the side moved, and a door moved out in the middle. Inside the door were steps going down, and there were scattered pieces on the walls on both sides of the steps.
Scattered with luminous beads.
"This must be the Night Pearl mentioned in the book? It doesn't seem to be the case. Come on, let's move faster and try to get out before the torches burn out."
No one had any objection.
After entering the door, there is no need to talk nonsense.
When Jiang Mingyue released his mental power, he could only see it roughly on the ground before, but now he can see it more clearly.
After scanning around, Jiang Mingyue only regretted that she had discovered it too late, otherwise she might have become the richest person.
Jiang Mingan: "There are various footprints on the ground. It seems that there are many people coming in and out."
Xie Yunhai: "It looks like I'm moving things. There's more over there. Let's go in and take a look."
After entering, looking over, it is an underground warehouse as big as a basketball court. The footprints of transportation are from here. It can be seen that there were originally a lot of boxes piled here.
Jiang Mingan: "Uh! I seem to have stepped on something."
The torch was lowered, the picket was pulled, and a string of black jade beads was picked up.
"What a good thing! Someone probably hid something. This string was dropped in a panic. Coupled with the color problem, it was able to escape. Tsk! Yunhai, you can't do it! If you had discovered this nest earlier,
, I probably won’t have to struggle for ten lifetimes.”
Xie Yunhai: "..." Who can't do it?
"There is another room, hey! This room is so small, it doesn't look like a warehouse."
I have to say that Jiang Ming'an is really lucky to have money. Of course, this time it's not money luck. He picked up something in the corner, and when he came closer to the firelight, he saw it was a crumpled paper ball. He unfolded it with difficulty, and there were half-written words inside.
"Please help! Wen Renzhou, Qi Wen, Xia... are gone."
The three of them thought of something at the same time, and their expressions changed.
"Perhaps we are overthinking it. Let's take a look..." After searching carefully, nothing else was found. This small space was empty except for the straw on the ground.
There was no other place, so the three of them hurriedly came up, but did not close the door of the secret room, and only locked the door of the main hall.
After returning to No. 43 Magpie Street, the three of them sat down to discuss.
Xie Yunhai: "Yueyue, you don't have to worry about this. I'll write a letter later and ask Huang Mao to go to Nansuo along with this note."
Jiang Mingyue thought of the intercepted report letter before and added, "Let Huang Mao find a way to see An Jian accept it."
"Okay. Yueyue, go and have a rest. Your brother and I will take a nap. We have to go to work at dawn."
This was what Jiang Mingyue was waiting for, and she quickly got up to rest.
Although she had rested in the first half of the night, she was sleepy again after working for most of the night. As for her previous promise to come back to roast the leg of lamb, this was just a talk.
When Jiang Mingyue woke up, it was already evening. She went out and walked around, but there was no sign of her two brothers. It seemed that they had gone somewhere to socialize again.
Jiang Mingyue first took a change of clothes, plunged into the space, soaked in the hot springs, got dressed, and then came out to feed Lightning the roast chicken.
Lightning pouted: You finally remembered me, do you want to starve me to death? You are not as good as the other master at all, I don't want you anymore.
Looking at Lightning's small movements, she somehow knew what it was aggrieved by.
Jiang Mingyue rubbed its dyed black hair and explained: "I overslept next door, and I haven't eaten for a day. It's not that I forgot you. I will install a chicken coop here later. If I am like today,
Just catch the live chickens and eat them yourself.”
Lightning rolled his eyes: Who wants to eat a bloody live chicken? I want to eat a fragrant roast chicken with pine feathers.
"Oh, you're being picky. Let me tell you, there's no need for negotiation." After saying that, he stood up and left, entering the space again.
Lightning: "..." This master is really not good at all. He wants a little swallow. Woo hoo, someone is mistreating me.
Jiang Mingyue collected the grain and planted seeds again, this time potatoes.
Then I went to No. 5 on the outskirts of the city. At the beginning of every month, Brother Pan would force people to haul the bottles and cans he helped transport here.
Jiang Mingyue took a look and saw that the entire yard was filled with her bottles and jars. When she raised her hand, everything was put into the space.
After entering the space, Jiang Mingyue first cleaned and disinfected, then packaged the previously brewed wine and labeled it "Moon Palace Immortal Brew".
After freeing up the big wine vat, Jiang Mingyue moved corn from the warehouse and started making wine.
Chapter completed!
