54. Hall of Corpses

After she lit all the lamps, she asked me to turn off the flashlight in order to save more power. She said: "His father-in-law didn't end well either. He died suddenly in the sixth year of Tian Cong's life. Do you know what death means in modern times?"

He died of a sudden illness."

I continued what she said: "I heard that Mang Gurtai was reckless by nature and once had a dispute over military affairs in the tent of Huang Taiji, who had succeeded the Great Khan. In anger, he actually pulled out his sword in public and was beaten by all the generals.

He was kicked and punched and pushed out of the tent. This is the famous incident of "The Royal Blade Revealed". Maybe it was because of this incident that he and Huang Taiji formed a feud."

Mouse said: "In other words, he still had a falling out with Huang Taiji after being forced to do so. Why not rebel while he was not yet in power? Then he could stabilize Huang Taiji in the court and send his son-in-law to dig out the secrets his father left in the dragon vein.

Baby, have you prepared the cavalry for rebellion? This grandson is insidious enough! But it also means that he did not take away the treasure hidden in the dragon vein before his death. I also understand this sudden death. It is all a cover for historians. To put it bluntly, it may be

Let Huang Taiji secretly send someone to do it."

Nanhai Yuedao: "Yes, in the ninth year of Tiancong's reign, sixteen seals and one seal of the emperor of the Jin Dynasty were found from Mang Gurtai. These are clearly recorded in history books. After that, Mang Gurtai

His daughter and son Mangguji and Ebilun were imprisoned in the clan's mansion to die. No wonder there is no record of Ebilun's son-in-law Sonomu in the history books. It turns out that he died in the secret passage of dragon veins."

I said that if our analysis is correct, the secret passage should not end when it reaches this magnificent hall. There must be an exit. Let's look for it carefully.

After the oil lamps on the walls were lit, the temperature of the already cold hall was somewhat restored, but the smell of corpses became even stronger. Wet towels could no longer cover up the unpleasant smell. I used up one bottle after another of Nanhaiyue's mineral water.

Bottle, it looks like it won't last long, and in the end it will be suffocated to death even if it's not trapped here.

"I'm going... look, little toad!" the mouse shouted.

I heard the sound and went over, and saw the mouse lowering his head and holding the small stick in his pocket to play with a toad on the ground. The toad was not big, and its body was red and green. There were glands on its forehead, and the glands were distributed around it.

There are a few small bubbles on the dots. I think this toad must have been in a state of hibernation because the temperature in the secret passage was too low. Now the temperature in the hall has eased slightly and has revived. But look at it.

It looks weird, but I can't tell what kind of frog it belongs to.

I was still here thinking about the little toad with the mouse, and when I heard the moon in the South China Sea calling us, I ran over and took a look. There were several colorful paintings surrounding the four walls of the hall. The paintings were very textured, uneven, and there was a groove in the middle. The murals were divided into

There are four pairs, each of which depicts the shapes of the four mythical beasts in the temple. Their shapes are breathing clouds and mist, and their feet are on auspicious clouds.

"Look at the groove in the middle? I feel like it's turning on some kind of mechanism!" Nan Haiyue said.

I nodded in agreement. "Does this mean that this secret room has four exits? What do the four mythical beasts painted on the wall mean? Are there really mythical beasts hidden inside?"

"Holy crap, is this groove the key to unlocking the mechanism? We can't even enter a door without the key?" said the mouse.

"Click, click, click, click..." At this time, this kind of sound came from nowhere, it was like the sound of several pieces of hard plastic cloth being rubbed back and forth by hands, and the sound was still spreading from time to time.
