The moonlight was like water, under the cliff, beside the pond, Chen Tianning took out a simple token, jumped over the pond and landed on the cliff. In an instant, he used the token as a knife and slashed ten times. The token was scratched on the cliff. Underline a traditional Chinese character '陈'.
The word "Chen" was hidden in the cliff. If it were not outlined with a token, it would be difficult to show it. But a moment later, the cliff on the Tanshui River cracked open, revealing a simple stone door.
Chen Fan was a little surprised. This was not a formation, but a mechanism. He did not expect that the entrance to the Chen family's secret place was actually set up with a mechanism.
"You see, the spiritual energy of heaven and earth is exhausted and revives from time to time. Our Chen family's secret land is opened with a mechanism. Therefore, since ancestor Tianxuan set up the secret land thousands of years ago, it has never been cut off. The most difficult disasters of genocide have been... The clan members hid in secret places and finally survived!" Chen Tianren lamented.
This secret place is the most important reason why Jiangyin Chen family can be passed down.
"So that's it. Grandpa, can such a mechanism withstand foreign invasion?" Chen Fan wondered.
You know, although the mechanism is good, it is not as good as the formation.
"This depends on luck. You'll know after you go in and take a look!" Chen Tianren said with a smile.
Chen Fan nodded and immediately followed Chen Tianning and entered the entrance of the secret place. As soon as he entered, Chen Fan's mental power spread along the entrance of the cave. Just a moment later, Chen Fan was surprised to find that this small entrance , it turns out that the mechanism is connected to the magic circle, and the magic circle is connected to the mechanism. Although it cannot be said to be complicated, the layout is very careful.
And this entrance alone is more than thirty meters long, with winding passages and various layouts. If Chen Tianning hadn't disarmed the trap in front and wanted to enter from here, even a practitioner would have to shed his skin without dying.
Chen Fan even felt some dangerous auras here. They were sealed magic weapons. Some of them were no longer effective, but there were still many that had spiritual light flowing around them inadvertently.
"Thirteenth Master, is this arranged by Patriarch Tianxuan?" Chen Fan couldn't help but ask.
Chen Tianning shook his head gently and said, "It is impossible to verify who originally arranged this secret place. However, according to the records left in the ancestral land, it should be the ancestor Tianxuan who inherited the legacy of his predecessors and transformed it into The secret ancestral land of my Chen family, after all, my Chen family only moved to Jiangyin a thousand years ago, and it was not here even more long ago!"
Chen Fan was surprised and thought that these were arranged by ancestor Tianxuan.
But to be able to find such a good place, it is obvious that Tianxuan ancestor was very lucky back then.
After walking in the passage for five or six minutes, a cave suddenly appeared before his eyes. To Chen Fan's surprise, the cave was actually decorated with colorful lights, making it colorful.
"Hey, Xiaofan, our Chen family is also advancing with the times. When there were no electric lights in the past, kerosene lamps were used here. The smell was too strong. Later, we simply built a small power station in the underground river below. The power is on." Chen Tianli, who followed, laughed.
Chen Fan couldn't help but laugh. There really weren't many people in the old Chen family who were still old-fashioned.
"This is the real entrance. Doors must be opened by people inside. Even if an enemy comes in, they can't get in here!" Chen Tianren followed and pointed to the depths of the cave.
Chen Fan walked over, his mental power spread, and he saw a stone gate that combined a magic circle and a mechanism. He saw Chen Tianning walking in front of the stone gate and knocking it rhythmically with his hands more than ten times.
Just a moment later, the stone door opened, but it was only a small door, and the door still did not move.
After Chen Fan entered the small door, he found that there was a staircase extending downwards. The layout here was a bit crazy.
Going down the stairs, led by Chen Tianning, Chen Fan finally passed through the last portal and heard the sound of running water.
"This is? An underground river?" Chen Fan was surprised and looked at the river in the darkness ahead.
He did not expect that the Chen family's secret place was built next to an underground river.
"That's right, the source of the underground river here is deep in the mountains, and its end goes straight into the depths of the ground. It is about three thousand meters long. There is abundant water and vapor here, and fish thrive. The secret place our Chen family has opened here is hidden in
In a canyon next to an underground river, even if someone strays into the underground river, they may not be able to find it."
Chen Tianren explained with a smile, "Moreover, with the development of science and technology, we have not only installed water-driven engines here, but also installed surveillance systems both inside and outside."
Chen Fan was really surprised. He looked around and saw that the underground river was surging, and it should be connected to the big river outside Jiangyin.
As for the surveillance Chen Tianren mentioned, Chen Fan quickly discovered it. Not to mention, it felt a bit high-tech.
The Chen family, which has been around for thousands of years, has actually used high technology. This idea is a bit big.
"Let's go. Ahead is the medicine garden that my Chen family has secretly opened here. We can plant some special medicinal materials!" Chen Tianren urged, leading the way.
Chen Fan was really surprised. There was even a medicine field.
Under the leadership of Chen Tianren, Chen Fan quickly came to a bend in the underground river. There was a depression washed out by the river. As expected, a lot of herbs were planted on it. Chen Fan recognized the ones among them with a quick sweep of his mental energy.
More than ten kinds of medicinal materials that are rare outside.
These herbs are all grown freely in the weeds. They are definitely grown using natural methods. Even if someone comes here, they may not be able to find traces of artificiality.
It can be seen that even here, the Chen family was extremely careful and did not leave any traces of man-made damage.
Going up the river, Chen Fan saw a lot of medicinal herbs and a lot of fish in the river, some of which were rare species outside. Not only were they delicious, they could also be used as medicine.
Apparently, the Chen family has transformed this underground river into a breeding farm.
When he arrived at the Chen family's secret place, Chen Fan saw a series of mechanism arrangements, plus a clever illusion array, hiding the secret place on the side of the dark river that seemed to have nothing. Regarding this arrangement,
Chen Fan was convinced.
The cautiousness of the ancestors of the Chen family was beyond his expectation.
The outside of the canyon was dark, but after entering, Chen Fan discovered that there were caves here. There were caves inside, some of which were naturally formed, and some of which were created.
"Hahaha, brother, you are finally back!"
Just as he stepped into the secret place, a hearty whistle sounded in front of him, and Chen Fan saw an old man who looked to be in his sixties coming up with more than a dozen tribesmen.
"This is your nineteenth-century prince Chen Tianxu, who is also the most proficient in formations and mechanisms among our Chen family members!" Chen Tianren introduced.
"Chen Fan has met the Nineteenth Grand Master, and all the grandfathers and grandmothers!" Chen Fan quickly saluted.
Although these old people are old, their energy and blood have not weakened, and they are all practitioners.
"Are you Chen Fan? Chen Xiaochang's son? Yes, through the surveillance just now, we all saw your ability to deal with those bastards in Xuantianmen outside. Sure enough, a hero comes from a young boy, and my Chen family has another Qilin'er!" Chen Tianxu
He laughed heartily and praised Chen Fan profusely.
"Mr. Tianxu praised me!" Chen Fan quickly said modestly, looked at the others, and found that there were only a few among them that he had seen before and had an impression of.
The Chen family’s heritage far exceeded his imagination!
