When the thieves saw that the iron building was protected by a hidden mechanism, they were even more sure that there must be a treasure inside.

However, the group of thieves have all seen how powerful the traps in the Pingshan Underground Palace are. If nothing else, just that one time in Wengcheng, if the Taoist Priest hadn't had the foresight, no one would know how many people would have been trapped in that time.

Therefore, the thieves were extra cautious. Chen Yulou first sent two people in to find out if there was any trap, and then sent a dozen people in again, carrying lanterns to look for the hidden treasures in the Dan Palace.

As for the others, they were waiting by the centipede-hanging ladder coming down from Danjing to prevent sudden changes and to retreat immediately.

However, after hearing that Chen Yulou and others concluded that there was a treasure in the attic, Luo Laowei couldn't help it.

When Chen Yulou said that he could go in, he ignored Chen Yulou's advice and insisted on going in to take a look. He also said: "Mr. Chen, you brothers in Xiling know the rules and follow orders. The things you are not allowed to touch are the Jinshan Mountains in front of you."

Yinshan, your brothers won’t touch it either.

But the bastards under me are either old smokers or desperadoes, and many of them are thieves and pickpockets. If I don't watch and see the treasure inside, there is no guarantee that they won't take advantage of the wealth and steal some.

I, Luo Laowai, and Xieling are from the same family, so we don’t need to speak the same language, but we still have the Banshan faction. It would be bad if we broke the rules of our alliance.

Grandma, if Xiao Yangzi hadn't been there, I wouldn't have taken the risk.

You just wait here for a while, I will explore this small shabby house with my people in a few times."

When Chen Yulou heard this, he felt that it made sense.

This time, the three of them worked together to visit the tomb. It's okay if someone steals some unworthy items, but this is obviously where the alchemy palace hides medicines. There are many medicinal materials and elixirs that can be used to move mountains.

The covenant they made before they came in said that the elixirs in the underground palace here belonged to the people who moved mountains. If someone was caught stealing them, it would be a waste of time for Luo Laowai and himself.

Moreover, Chen Yulou saw that all the secret buttons here had lost their functions and thought there was no danger, so he agreed to let Luo Laowai go in and asked Miss Hong to follow.

It is good at breaking through the hidden buttons of the mechanism. If there are any hidden buttons of the mechanism, it can break them easily.

Seeing this, Luo Laowai thanked him and immediately took Miss Hong and four or five of his confidants into the iron building.

Partridge Whistle thought that he had been to many large tombs, but he had never encountered such a strange place. When he was curious, he asked Chen Yulou to meet him outside the building. He also told Hua Ling and the old foreigner to follow the leader immediately when they saw something was wrong.

The troops retreated, and he himself followed Luo Laowai and others into the iron building with a gun.

As soon as they entered the door, they looked up and saw that the main hall on the first floor was also paved with cast iron, and a barefoot jade statue was enshrined in the hall.

Partridge Whistle guessed that this should be the King of Medicine in the Immortal Way.

The statue was not high, only about two feet, but it was all shiny and smooth. Immediately, several people came forward, took the jade statue of Medicine Fairy off the table and put it into a skin bag.

Partridge Whistle looked at it and thought that this iron building was the Palace of Medicine King, where the elixirs were stored in the Alchemy Palace.

The Yaowang Pavilion is also known as the Lu Pavilion. All precious medicines are stored in it. The large osmanthus trees outside are probably planted to absorb the yin energy and prevent the pills and ointments in the Lu Pavilion from deteriorating.

Partridge Whistle watched as he walked, and after a while he walked around in several narrow iron rooms at the back of the hall.

The back room is full of porcelain vases and jade altars filled with medicines. Some of them are tightly sealed, and the medicinal properties of the mushrooms inside are still there. Among them, there is a jade letter that is the most conspicuous. There are colorful paintings on it, all of which are detailed and auspicious patterns of pine, crane, fairy grass, and partridges.

The whistle opened the cover and saw that there were several grids inside the letter. There was a small gold medal on each grid, and in the grids were medicinal stones of different shapes.

Partridge Whistle carefully distinguished it under the lamp, and saw that the gold medal said: "Lion Claw, Spider Treasure, Snake Eye, Dog Treasure..." and other words, all of which are the inner elixirs and stones of various spiritual creatures. These are all

The precious medicinal materials are only available in the Ouchi Imperial Palace. Even the smallest spider treasure inside is about the size of a walnut and in the shape of a black pill. They are all rare and rare miraculous medicines.

Most of the group of thieves have experience in tomb robbing, so most of them know the goods. Even if they don't know the goods, the equipment containing the medicine is extremely expensive and gorgeous. There is no need to guess the pills and stones inside, they must be of great value.

The thieves who came in were all overjoyed and took whatever they saw without any courtesy.

After loading the elixirs and medicinal materials on the first floor, the thieves headed to the second floor through the iron stairs.

The fog in the iron building gradually thickened, and the iron walls became black again. It was hard to see anything clearly in the dim light.

When the partridge sentry saw this, he raised his gun and lit his lamp, and walked ahead of Miss Hong and Mr. Luo Wai.

As soon as everyone reached the second floor, they raised their feet and opened the iron door, and suddenly saw a woman with heavy makeup standing in the room.

The person's face was facing into the house, motionless in the dark iron room. The image on her back looked like a living person, but she couldn't feel the breath of a living person on her body.

What are the eyes of the partridge whistle who specializes in robbing ancient tombs? As soon as the lamp flickered, he could see clearly that the woman was dressed in Ming Dynasty clothes. She wore wooden-soled bow shoes and four kinds of fragmentary brocade materials.

A complete paddy field suit.

No fewer than ten ancient tombs from the Ming Dynasty have been robbed by Partridge Whistle, so naturally I recognized the age of this dress at a glance, and I was filled with surprise.

This iron building has been closed since the Yuan Dynasty. The door is tightly closed, like an iron cage. I am afraid that even a mouse cannot get in. How could a Ming Dynasty woman appear? How could she enter the building? Could it be that

The bone shrinking method and the transfiguration method failed? Or is it a strange person like the Taoist priest?

The partridge whistle led a group of thieves up the stairs. The woman just stood there with her back exposed, as if she was unaware of all the movements around her. She was like a wood carving and clay sculpture. Wisps of mist flowed into the black iron window, turning the hazy

The figure was whitewashed like a ghost.

The group of thieves crowded in front of the door were dumbfounded and thought to themselves: After robbing too many tombs, they will indeed encounter evil spirits.

As a warlord, Luo Laohuai had the same background as this gang of tomb robbers, and he usually did a lot of digging graves.

But in the past, I relied on my strength because of my numbers, and I didn't really encounter anything evil.

Now when I come to this Pingshan Mountain, there are strange things happening one after another. There is also a true Taoist master here. When I think about the ghost, I can't help but feel my legs twisting and I want to turn around and run downstairs, but at this moment

My legs and feet seemed to be out of control, and they were nailed to the spot as if they were filled with lead.

Seeing this strange situation, Luo Laowai could only hold the peace charm in one hand and pray to the Taoist priest for blessing. After seeing that the woman didn't respond after a long time, he breathed a sigh of relief and asked the Partridge Whistle in front of him in a low voice: "Brother Partridge Whistle, what are you doing?"

Is his grandma a human or a ghost? Why is it so weird?

There is a layer of dust on the ground of this iron building. Apart from me and my group, there are no other footprints. I think no one has walked here for hundreds of times. Could it be that I have seen a ghost now?"

Although Miss Hong was quite frightened, she felt a little disdainful when she saw that a big man named Luo Laowai was so unbearable and still dominating. She secretly thought: She is still calm and steady. Although she is as scared as she and others, she is still

Calm and composed. Always standing in front of everyone like a hero.

Partridge Whistle, however, ignored the reactions of everyone else, stepped forward with a lantern, and suddenly asked: "Is it a human or a ghost?" As he spoke, he raised his hand from behind to pat the shoulder of the woman wearing Ming Dynasty clothing, but unexpectedly he touched the woman's shoulder.

, turned out to be nothing.

The woman in plain clothes also disappeared without a trace.

Seeing the Ming Dynasty woman disappear without a trace, the group of thieves were so frightened that they broke into a cold sweat and formed a formation back to back to prepare for any unexpected events.

When Partridge Whistle saw that his hand was empty, he was so frightened that he hurriedly backed away, only to see a cloud of dust suddenly rise from where the woman was standing, and spread out in the narrow building.

Partridge Whistle thought it was poisonous, so he quickly closed his breath and signaled the thieves to cover their mouths and noses and dodge.

Before the group of thieves entered the iron building, Chen Yulou felt that the place was heavy with medicinal gas, and he was afraid of running into the poisonous smoke trap, so he took precautions in advance.

Now that woman was touched and immediately turned into a piece of dust, as thick as mist.

There was no unusual smell in the mist-like dust.

Partridge Whistle had a glove of clay leather on his hand. He casually picked it up in the dust and mist in front of him. He held up the light to examine it carefully. He saw that what was on the glove looked like withered scraps of paper. It was broken very finely.

There are traces of meridians left in the paper.

Seeing this, he made a conclusion in his mind, thinking that this must be an exquisite paper-cutting person. Since it had been left in the room for hundreds of years, the paper tendons had long since withered, and if someone touched it, it would immediately turn into ashes.

Knowing the reason, Partridge Whistle felt even more strange: This woman was neither a human nor a ghost. She was actually a paper-cut human figure. She looked like a real person. She was so miraculous. But she was wearing plain clothes that were only available in the Ming Dynasty. Why?

Will it appear in this Yuan Dynasty exposed house enclosed with pig iron?"

Partridge Whistle encountered many strange things in Pingshan, and it was difficult to guess the details based on his knowledge of natural history.

I walked around the second-story iron pavilion again and saw nothing unusual. The doors and windows were tightly locked, and it was really difficult to determine how the Ming Dynasty paper-cut figure was placed inside.

I even doubted whether I had been deceived just now, but everyone had seen the woman. I was full of doubts at the moment, so I turned back downstairs and met Chen Yulou and others under the osmanthus tree.

He told me what happened in the room.

After hearing this, Chen Yulou felt that it was unexpected, but after thinking about it several times, he couldn't find any clue. When he asked Zhang Lin, Zhang Lin also shook his head, expressing his confusion.

Of course, Zhang Lin knew that it might be the work of the Guanshan Taibao, but he was only responsible for protecting the people and not participating in the tomb robbery, so he said that he didn't know and just let them explore on their own. There was no danger now anyway.

Seeing this, Chen Yulou had no choice but to send people to search the remaining three iron towers.

A group of thieves either slew or burrowed into each iron building, tearing open the door, and turned it over inside and out before discovering that these four iron buildings were not meant to store treasures.

The cave at the bottom of the well is a secret room, and the four dark iron buildings are all exposed rooms used to store precious elixirs and classic books. Many treasures were plundered, including more than a dozen pairs of formed Heshouwu alone.

, but I never saw any paper-cut figures of women in plain clothes in the other three buildings.

Chen Yulou saw that the harvest was not small. Not to mention whether the "dan pills and ointment powder" from thousands of years ago still had medicinal properties, the bottles and boxes containing the medicine were all ancient relics from the Han and Tang Dynasties.

The value is extraordinary, but I still feel unwilling to find the ancient tomb and dig out the old zombie known as the Corpse King of Xiangxi.

He thought to himself: If he just stopped doing this, it would make him, the leader of thieves, a bit embarrassed after all. After all, he had to move mountains and unload all the mountains, and add Luo Laowai as an 'official thief'. Even if he gained a lot, he would still be criticized.

, was laughed at by Green Lin.

So Chen Yulou decided to continue looking for Dazang and spread out his team to search in the cave where corpse cassia grew.

After receiving the order, the group of thieves lit torches and drove away the chickens and birds, forming a human wall and searching in detail at the entrances and crevices of the surrounding caves.

As the search scope expanded, the group of thieves gradually discovered that the cave was surrounded by iron walls made of steel plates, forming a courtyard here.

In addition to the four iron buildings under the osmanthus tree, there is also an alchemy room for burning alchemy, which is built with brick furnaces and bellows, as well as some ancient bronze secret vessels. Behind a jade screen, there is a door locked on the inside.

Although Chen Xiazi, Partridge Shao and others were the number one champions in the fight, they had only stolen ancient tombs. There were many things in the Alchemy Palace that they had never seen before in their lives. They were all secretly surprised, but after finding

Several times, no trace of the ancient tomb was found. Finally, when we came to the gate behind the jade screen, we ordered people to break the lock and pry the door, and then went deeper.
