But what the explorers didn't expect was that the gold and silver treasures they found on each floor of the underground maze were either so poisonous that they would kill anyone who touched them immediately, or the treasures they took out of the maze would suddenly die within a few days.
An unknown plague began to spread, killing large numbers of humans and livestock.
When people understood that these treasures could not be taken out of the huge maze casually, it was too late. The entire Qi Lie Kingdom, such an extremely powerful and prosperous country, had perished due to plague and curse.
In order to commemorate the terrible past of the demise of the Qi Lie Kingdom, the surviving people built a temple on top of the huge maze.
The roof tiles, exterior walls, floor tiles, etc. of the temple are all made of stone engraved with exorcism patterns, in order to suppress the evil spirits in the underground labyrinth and prevent the plague from spreading again. At first, the people of Sheng Long Pu Lun continent,
He has always worshiped the temple devoutly, but over time, the temple gradually fell into disuse due to lack of care.
"But now, the abandoned temple and the underground maze have changed." Guan Heng said as he pulled the reins of the plesiosaur. The mount immediately understood and landed on the flat ground not far ahead.
Guan Heng then said to Borui behind him: "Now the temple and this swamp have become the adventurer paradise of Saint Long Pulun. Look -"
Borui looked in the direction of Guan Heng's finger and was immediately shocked: "Why is it so lively like a market here?!"
"According to Akin, in recent years due to the invasion of the dragon army, there has been a 'treasure hunting craze' in Shenglong Pulun."
Guan Heng easily tied the reins of the Plesiosaur to a tree, and then said: "A large number of skilled citizens, such as magicians, warriors, priests and thieves, formed expedition teams one after another to go
Treasure hunt in the underground labyrinth beneath the abandoned temple.”
"Boss, didn't you just say that the treasures in the underground labyrinth are all contaminated with unknown poisons and plagues?" Borui frowned and asked, "Aren't these people afraid of dying in the underground labyrinth?"
"It's like this. I heard that some churches know about the holy water that can dispel evil spirits and exorcise poisons. Gold and silver treasures washed with these holy waters can be carried around with you." Guan Heng explained: "And there are some special items sold in the market here.
The treasure chest can purify unclean things."
"Hi, dear guests, don't miss it if you pass by."
At this time, shouts came from the market on the edge of the swamp: "The latest religious cult water has a first-class exorcism effect."
"Look, this is a heavy sword and shield made by the skilled craftsmen of the mountain dwarves. It can easily withstand even the dragon's fangs, claws and breath. If you buy it in bulk now, it will come with a fine iron helmet."
Borui looked at this huge grocery market and was a little stunned. He asked Guan Heng in a low voice: "Boss, how can these people do business here? This place is so remote, can they make money?"
"According to my speculation, not only can you make money, but if you are lucky, you can also make a fortune, because most of the buyers and sellers here should be exploration teams entering and exiting the underground maze."
Guan Heng smiled slightly and walked towards the market with Borui. He said: "Many explorers who come to the outskirts of the maze need to provide supplies, or sell their excess supplies to others, and those who come out of the maze
It was also necessary to get rid of some of the treasures found, and over time, a huge market was formed."
"I see, I understand." Borui said with sudden realization: "Weapons and armor are worn out and need to be repaired and updated. Medicines and food are also necessities for maze exploration. As long as you do business here, there will definitely be no shortage of business."
"Pah!" Guan Heng said with a smile and snapped his fingers: "Correct answer, but we came to the abandoned temple today not to explore and hunt for treasure, but to find the last stone tablet that sealed the soul demon."
"Yabu, don't sleep!" Guan Heng raised his hand and slapped the soul-sucking beast sleeping on his shoulder hard: "You made my shoulder sore, you know?"
At this time, Yabu blinked his sleepy eyes and asked drowsily: "Uh?! Guan Heng, is it time to eat?"
"Aside from eating and sleeping, you have made no contribution at all!" Guan Heng said angrily: "Hurry and help me find the last stone tablet, and I will give you three Dragon Soul Stones as a reward."
There was a gurgling sound in his throat, and Yabu swallowed his mouthfuls and said, "Can five yuan be okay?"
"Okay, but you have to work harder to find it quickly."
After Guan Heng said this, he turned to Bo Ruiyan and said: "Mrs. Jiang Ge mentioned that people from the Dragon Clan and the Demon Realm generally dare not approach this abandoned temple within a hundred miles, because there are countless ancient temples arranged here.
There is a huge exorcism circle, and people with the black energy of the demonic realm will be ostracized when they go to a certain area, and then they will be forcibly teleported to a place far away from the swamp."
Hearing this, Borui was overjoyed: "In that case, we can look for the stone tablet without worrying about the Dragon Legion coming to cause trouble."
"We cannot take it lightly. Our time is already very tight." Guan Heng slowly shook his head and said, "Moreover, even if the Dragon Legion members enter the swamp area of the abandoned temple, they may ambush nearby, so be careful."
At this time, the soul-sucking beast Yabu twitched his nose and suddenly whispered to Guan Heng: "I smell the smell of the stone tablet, but it is far away from here, it seems to be somewhere underground."
"It seems that the stone tablet is buried in the underground maze. Let's go." Guan Heng waved to Borui, and the two of them took long strides and ran directly in the direction of the abandoned temple.
…
A few minutes later, at the entrance of the abandoned temple, Guan Heng and Borui were blocked by a group of people.
"Hey, what do you want to do?" Borui saw that there were men and women in this group, all with gloomy faces, as if they had bad intentions.
At this time, a tall, burly armored warrior suddenly took a step forward and said, "You want to go to the labyrinth under the abandoned temple, right?"
"So what?" Guan Heng saw that the opponent's palms were placed on the handles of swords and weapons, and wanted to wait for an opportunity. He said coldly: "Give way, we are going over, I have never heard of a good dog not blocking it."
Road?"
"Boy, it's been a long time since anyone in this area has spoken to us in the Maxim Expedition Team like this." The armored warrior stared and said, "You can enter the underground maze if you want, just give us the 'entry fee' first!
"
"What's the entrance fee? I've never heard of it." Seeing these people acting like rogues, Borui immediately said loudly: "The underground maze here belongs to your family? Why are you asking us for money?"
"Hehehe, you are right."
Hearing this, the armored warrior burst out laughing: "Yes, three years ago, this abandoned temple and underground labyrinth were already the private property of our Maxim expedition team. Anyone who wants to go hunting for treasure in the labyrinth,
They all have to pay us the entry fee, otherwise——"
