Although Lin Qingxuan had been eyeing the essence of the Nine Yin Scriptures carved by Wang Chongyang in the ancient tomb since last year, he knew that there was still Lin Chaoying's maid in the ancient tomb, that is, Li Mochou and Xiao Longnu's master.
, this person was taught and trained by Lin Chaoying, and his martial arts skills are very strong, second only to the five masters. If he enters the ancient tomb rashly, he will inevitably run the risk of being discovered by her.
Moreover, this person has been serving Lin Chaoying for a long time, so he may not know about Wang Chongyang's inscriptions, and even if this person does not know that there is a connection under the sarcophagus to the outside world, she is very powerful and there is still a risk of being captured if she notices that she enters the ancient tomb.
, even if you won’t die by then, the feeling of being controlled by someone’s destiny is not beautiful after all.
Therefore, Lin Qingxuan planned to get a taste of what Grandma Sun or Li Mochou said to determine what the leader of the ancient tomb was like, and then dive into the pool to find a secret passage into the ancient tomb. This was the safest way.
It just so happened that today was approaching the day of the monthly meeting. Lin Qingxuan carried the gouache and earrings he bought for Grandma Sun and Li Mochou, and went outside the dense forest, imitating the barking of dogs. After a while, no one came out.
Lin Qingxuan was greatly surprised. This was the first time this happened. He called a few more times and waited for about a cup of tea before seeing Granny Sun come out with a gloomy face.
"Mother-in-law, what's wrong with you? Where's Miss Li?" Lin Qingxuan came up to greet her and asked while saluting.
Granny Sun helped Lin Qingxuan up and sighed: "The young lady found out about your relationship with the old woman and the girl. She got angry and grounded the girl. You are not allowed to come again. My child, you have now practiced the martial arts in the Chongyang practice stone room.
In a few years, I won’t be afraid of other Taoist priests from the Quanzhen Sect anymore. My old lady dare not disobey the young lady, so just go back and you won’t have to come again in the future.”
Lin Qingxuan's face darkened. Although he knew that the leader of the ancient tomb would find out sooner or later, he still felt a little sudden when he heard it. He knew that he was unable to turn around. He took out two boxes of gouache and two boxes of glazed earrings from his arms and handed them to him.
To Granny Sun, he said: "Since the seniors in the ancient tomb have spoken, Xiaodao will no longer bother you. Granny, this is what I gave to you and Miss Li. Please accept it."
Grandma Sun put it away, looked at Lin Qingxuan with tears in her eyes, and sighed: "We have sect rules in the ancient tomb. Men are not allowed to enter, let alone contact with outside men, especially those who have a grudge against the Quanzhen Sect. Although the young lady has a gentle temper,
Wan is kind-hearted, but she cannot indulge her disciples. However, the old lady likes you as a child. If you suffer in Chongyang Palace or are bullied, just come to me again."
Lin Qingxuan nodded and asked, "How is Miss Li?"
"I didn't eat or drink for the first few days. After the old lady persuaded me, I started to drink some porridge, but I haven't gotten over it yet." Grandma Sun said with a frown.
Lin Qingxuan cupped his hands and said, "Please mother-in-law tell Miss Li that I will not bother you again in the future, and please ask Miss Li to forget me."
Grandma Sun had never experienced love in more than fifty years of life, but she knew a few things. After hearing this, she let out a long sigh and said, "Okay, I have pity on you." After saying this, Grandma Sun turned around and left.
Lin Qingxuan suddenly asked: "I wonder what that senior is doing?"
Although Granny Sun was a little strange, she still said: "Every morning, the young lady has to practice hard, and she waits until the afternoon to collect honey and practice acupuncture. However, in the past few days, she has been so angry with the girl that she has distracted her mind and stopped practicing.
There was a sulking feeling in the room."
Lin Qingxuan bowed deeply and said: "Please ask my mother-in-law to take me to apologize to that senior. I have been offended by a poor man in the past six months, but I have no relatives and friends, and I have no malicious thoughts when interacting with my mother-in-law and Miss Li.
The middle joint still needs to be explained.”
Grandma Sun nodded and said, "Good boy, of course I know you are a good boy."
Lin Qingxuan waved and left with a faint smile. Grandma Sun watched the thin figure disappear before reluctantly turning around and leaving.
Lin Qingxuan left the dense forest in front of the main entrance of the ancient tomb and went straight to the suspicious water pool he was looking for. When he got to the water pool, he took off his clothes, took an oil paper bundle in his hand, and jumped into the water wearing only a calf-nosed robe.
After a quarter of an hour, Lin Qingxuan swam ashore, shook his wet hair, put on his cloth shoes, picked up his clothes, and headed straight to the next pool.
Several hours passed by in a blink of an eye. Before nightfall, Lin Qingxuan dived into the fifth suspicious water pool. After exploring the bottom of the water in all directions for more than a quarter of an hour, he suddenly felt that the water became cool and the undercurrent surged. He couldn't help but feel excited.
He cheered up and swam forward eagerly.
After a cup of tea, Lin Qingxuan's head touched the water. After taking a few steps forward, Lin Qingxuan jumped out of the water with a kick of his legs.
"Wow!"
"Tick tock..."
The sound of water rang out, and Lin Qingxuan felt that he was stepping on solid rocky ground. There was darkness all around, and the air was filled with the smell of moisture. Lin Qingxuan hurriedly opened the oil-paper bag, and inside was a fire sickle and a fire fold.
After lighting the fire, with the faint light of the fire, Lin Qingxuan saw with his eyes that he was in a corridor, with a dark hole above and no one knew where it was leading.
After looking at the surrounding environment, Lin Qingxuan looked happy and said: "Fortunately, we have indeed found the secret passage leading to the ancient tomb. Follow this passage and you will reach the bottom of the stone chamber where the sarcophagus is parked in the ancient tomb. There is an inscription of the king.
The essence of martial arts from the Nine Yin Manual that deciphers the Jade Girl’s Heart Sutra left behind by the Double Ninth Festival.”
Although Lin Qingxuan knew that there seemed to be no mechanism in the corridor, he still did not dare to be careless. He swam back outside first, took out his clothes, and wrapped some dry food such as the antidote for golden sores and dried meat pot helmets in oil paper, and took a few iron darts.
Holding a hard wooden stick, he went into the water and dived to the entrance of the corridor.
Lin Qingxuan first used his kung fu to steam the clothes half dry, and then walked up the corridor with a wooden stick in one hand and a fire stick and iron dart in the other.
After a cup of tea, the corridor ahead became steeper and steeper, and finally became difficult to walk. Then Huo Guang looked up and saw that the angle of the upward corridor was close to 90 degrees. Lin Qingxuan did not dare to neglect, put away the iron dart, and bit the fire.
Zhezi, Luck used Qinggong to climb up using his hands and feet.
This section of the corridor was very long, and Lin Qingxuan estimated that it took almost an hour before he jumped out of the steep corridor and stepped onto the gentle slope.
Even though Lin Qingxuan had good internal strength and was young and powerful, he was panting from exhaustion and his chest and back were soaked with sweat.
Feeling that his hands were weak and his muscles were numb, his strength was exhausted, and there was not much internal strength left. Lin Qingxuan did not dare to neglect. He walked a few dozen steps forward and saw that the ground was dry. He swept it with his sleeves, sat down cross-legged and ate some dry food, and then silently yunxuan
achievement.
After two weeks of fortune, Lin Qingxuan felt refreshed. He jumped up and looked around more and more clearly. Knowing that his eyes were gradually adapting to the darkness, Lin Qingxuan did not relight the fire stick and held a dart in one hand.
, raised the stick in one hand and continued walking forward.
After walking forward for a while, he saw a fork in the road. Lin Qingxuan did not dare to walk randomly. He tapped it with a wooden stick and saw that the stone path under his feet was solid. He carved a big Tai Chi with an iron dart and then carefully chose a fork in the road.
Went in.
After walking for a while, there was another fork in the road. Lin Qingxuan still carved Tai Chi diagrams on the road under his feet, and then continued to choose a fork in the road and move forward.
After walking for half an hour and passing twelve forks, he suddenly found a warehouse at the end, which contained some long-decayed spears and broadswords. Lin Qingxuan knew that this was the weapons depot left behind when Wang Chongyang formed the anti-Jin rebel army.
"Looks like I went to the wrong place."
Lin Qingxuan was not discouraged. He returned to the starting point and picked a new path and started exploring again. From the first fork in the road, he carved triangular marks on the ground under his feet. Then when he got to the end, he found that it was an unexcavated tunnel.
