"What, plaster, that's not how you mess with plaster."

"It's not gypsum, it's corpse paste. It's something deposited by the fat layer in the animal's body over many years of decay." Xiaoya rolled her eyes at Old Wu angrily.

Old Wu thought for a while, plaster? Corpse paste? What's the difference? Finally he shook his head helplessly, but as soon as he shook his head, he saw from the corner of his eye that the white skull had disappeared.

The three of them hurried over and saw a hole the size of a bucket on the sallow ground, just big enough for one person to pass through. It was obvious that the skull had rolled down at some point.

"How about it, do you want to go down and take a look?" Old Wu raised his head and looked at the two of them.

"I think it's better to forget it. One more thing is worse than one less thing. Let's find an exit as soon as possible." a feeling of.

"What about you?" Old Wu glanced at Xiaoya again

"I don't think it's better not to go down. This is the cave where a mountain turtle holds a treasure. The turtle is the incarnation of Xuanwu. Xuanwu, also known as Xuanming, is the master of killing in the north. Therefore, this tomb is full of murderous ghosts. They know that there is something under the ground.

What are you hiding?"

Old Wu stood up and felt uneasy. Logically speaking, finding the exit is the most important thing now. The entrance of the hole is diagonally downward. Old Wu also knew in his heart that the chance of finding the exit would be smaller the further down you go, but it was a matter of control.

Don't control your curiosity.

"Let's go." Old Wu said, but he still felt a little reluctant to leave. He said to Xie Fei, "Show me that diary."

Xie Fei knew what Lao Wu was thinking, but he could see clearly that there was no such passage in the diary. To be honest, he was not sure whether he would be able to go down, but he had too little equipment.

I can't cope with even the slightest surprise.

Lao Wu got the diary from Xie Fei. Before he could open it and take a closer look, he heard a cough coming from the bottom of the cave.

"It's Second Uncle and the others." Xiaoya looked a little excited.

"Why, go down and take a look." Old Wu said while looking at Xie Fei to ask for his opinion.

Xie Fei nodded speechlessly, "I have no objection."

It later proved that this was not the cough of Cui Yuan and his group at all, and the person who made the sound was not a person at all. If the three of them had not paid attention to it at the time, they would probably not have been involved in so many disputes in the future.

among.

The three of them got into the hole one after another, with Lao Wu still taking the lead. The entrance of the hole was tilted and the angle was not low. The three of them supported the cave wall with both hands, but the wall was also somewhat greased, making it difficult to grasp firmly.

This resulted in the progress of the three of them being very slow.

"Be careful about this, I won't care if you fall." Old Wu turned around and said

Xie Fei secretly laughed in his heart, as long as you are in front, no matter who falls, you or Xiaoya, you will definitely not be able to escape.

Xiaoya listened to Lao Wu's words and put a little more force on her hands. She was already secretly afraid when she came here. After coming in for a while, there were still sounds of people coughing, except for the waves of people pushing people outward.

The water vapor accompanied the rumbling sound, and there was no other sound at all. The three of them were busy struggling against the stone wall. It was pitch black, and except for the vague Old Wu in front of them, they couldn't see anything.

After a while, Old Wu in front of him suddenly stopped. Xiaoya was still worried. She almost kicked Old Wu down without paying attention to her feet. Only when Xiaoya came back to her senses did she realize the temperature around here.

It was obviously much taller, and the water was steaming. The three of them seemed to be in a sauna. Their clothes were steamed by the steam, and they were completely soaked with the sweat flowing from their bodies.

"Stop, I feel like I'm almost at the exit." Old Wu said from the front, and the rumbling sound in front of him was getting louder and louder.

Old Wu poked his head out from the entrance of the cave and saw that there was a rushing underground river under him. However, it was obvious that the area of ​​​​this underground river was extraordinary. It ran through the mountain, and it was so dark that the edges could not be seen at all.

, Lao Wu never thought that there would be such a turbulent underground river under the land where he had lived for nearly thirty years.

Xie Fei also slowly moved out. According to the records in the diary, this should be the third floor, but isn't there a raised copper platform? Xie Fei looked around and saw nothing but dark things.

There is no trace of the copper platform in the river water.

"Look at that." Xiaoya stretched out her hand and pointed upward, and followed Xiaoya's hand, and saw this bright red light crawling on the top of the dark wall. The fluorescent light was charming, in this pitch-black place.

The skull on the roof of the cave was particularly conspicuous, but it wasn't the skull that had entered before them.

Xie Fei squinted his eyes and took a closer look. The top of the wall was clearly the bronze platform on the diary. However, the bronze platform was too huge, covering most of the top of the wall. There were four huge pillars on all sides.

Bronze chains hang the bronze platform, which is like a huge open hammock. The three of them can only see the part in front of them, but the other side is still hidden in the void.

I saw the skull slowly climbing up the bronze platform along the copper chain. Before it had gone far, the blue fluorescence that was originally hidden in the skull slowly came out again, shaking again.

It took the shape of a person. I saw that human-shaped fluorescent ball, and it actually took a few steps forward slowly. Xie Fei and the others were blocked by the huge copper platform and couldn't see it anymore.

However, the skull was not as vibrant as before, its color gradually dimmed, and it stopped there motionless.

"What? Go up and have a look." Xie Fei couldn't restrain the excitement in his heart and said. It's really hard to imagine how the ancients built this huge project. In that era, let alone cranes, there were so many cranes.

Copper is a difficult task, let alone melting and refining. If you really want what Xiaoya said, the place where the coffin is located must store wind and gather energy so that the energy can nourish the corpse, then what is the purpose of this copper platform? Xie Fei

The more I think about it, the less I understand what is on this bronze platform that can attract such an outstanding colleague from before.

"Let's go up and have a look." Old Wu looked under his feet. Just under his feet, there was a cliff one foot wide next to the exit of the cave. The cliff was winding upwards with no end in sight, but judging from the direction, it should be

Leading to a copper chain connected to a copper platform.

The three of them held hands and leaned against the cliff. The passage under their feet was only an inch wide, and they couldn't even let one foot stand upright. The three of them walked closer to a point before they finished the journey. The passage under their feet reached the copper chain.

There is no more going forward.

The copper chains are interlocked with each other. After years of corrosion, a thick layer of copper odor has developed on the surface of the copper chain, making it even more unusually thick. Each link is the length of a person's arm and the thickness of the wrist. The three copper chains are twisted together and
