Everything I saw and heard along the way was the same thing as a fantasy.
"Ghost? Strange Tales from a Chinese Studio? Do you dare to talk nonsense?"
Subconsciously, Li Cu forgot what he wanted to resist, leaned against the pillar, and moaned weakly...
Materialism? Three views?
Sorry, Li Cu feels like his mind is blank right now.
Suddenly, Li Cu felt in a daze that he had been living in a false world for the past seventeen years.
Now, the truth of the world is slowly revealed to me.
Instinctively, Li Cu wanted to know more!
After you come back from this trip, you will find that your life will be completely different.
Vaguely, Wang Meng's words rang in his ears, and Li Cu said these words formally for the first time. This was not a lie by Wang Meng to appease him.
"It's not just different, it's simply subverting our outlook on life, okay?"
Li Cu covered his head and smiled bitterly.
"What are you thinking about?"
At this moment, Hu Ming and others had finished their exploration of this place. Looking at Li Cu's appearance of collapse, he reminded him funny.
"No, it's nothing. We still have to go deeper, right?"
Li Cu took a deep breath and answered as calmly as possible.
"Of course, where is this?"
…
...
The bones that made up the seven fingers had been roughly swept aside, but the bones belonging to Lan Ting and Tao Tao were carefully put aside.
The floating sand under the corpse has been cleared away, revealing a large black stone slab.
In the center of the stone slab is a totem relief similar to ghosts and gods, and the surrounding area is densely covered with ancient writings.
"What's written on it?"
Boss Ma covered his mouth and nose with a handkerchief and asked impatiently.
"This is the Yueshi text, which probably means the life of a city lord in ancient Tongjing... He was the twenty-eighth city lord of this city."
As I said last time, Hu Ming’s reputation as a professor has no water at all!
Hu Ming has done a lot of research on various ancient texts in recent years... although Hu Ming has no talent in languages.
Regarding the Yueshi text... Hu Ming still did some research. At least, it was more than enough to identify the meaning of these characters.
"Then this is the tomb of the city lord?"
Su Nan glanced at Boss Ma, who suddenly became excited, and asked casually.
"God knows...but this looks like the entrance to a deeper underground palace. Just go down and take a look..."
Hu Ming handed the flashlight in his hand to Wu Xie, and the black gold sword with bronze patterns appeared out of thin air again.
Hu Ming half-crouched on the stone slab, pointing the tip of the knife at the gap in the center of the stone slab.
After thinking for a while, Hu Ming suddenly put away the black knife under everyone's doubtful eyes.
"Lend me your big white dog legs. My knife is not for this kind of thing!"
Hu Ming confidently stretched out his hand to Wu Xie and asked for it.
"I'm riding a horse... Your black knife is precious, but my big white dog's legs don't matter? Damn it!"
Wu Xie wanted to scold his mother directly at this moment.
You must know that the big white dog's leg was the favorite knife specially chosen for Wu Xie when the black blind man ordered it!
Heixiazi successfully passed on his idea to Wu Xie, that is, the knife is also alive!
Now, Hu Ming wants to use big white dog legs to do this kind of thing...
"Uncle Ming, be careful, don't give me a break!"
But looking at Hu Ming's eyes that refused to refuse, Wu Xie sighed slightly and reluctantly handed over his beloved knife.
"Wait a minute, we...can't destroy cultural relics? This is illegal!"
Just when Hu Ming was taking action, Li Cu suddenly raised his hand to speak!
As always, Hu Ming ignored Li Cuomengxin's remarks and inserted the tip of the big white dog's leg into the crack. Under Wu Xie's distressed eyes, his arms began to exert force.
Creak...
The underground palace that had been sealed for more than a thousand years was opened.
Inside is a staircase that leads directly to the ground. At the end of the staircase is a passage that is too deep to be seen.
"That's great! Su Nan, Professor Hu, don't forget what I want!"
"Victory is in sight. Don't worry. Once things are done, as long as I can afford it, you can have as much as you want! Even if it's my company!"
"I just want to be able to run and jump like a normal person!"
Boss Ma's eyes became intense. Before setting off, he did not forget to use his best money offensive to try to win over the two leaders, Su Nan and Hu Ming.
In response, Hu Ming showed an awkward but polite smile.
It’s not that Hu Ming is bragging, Boss Ma really doesn’t see more money than he does!
Besides, with so many people, Boss Ma is probably the only one who naively thinks that they can be bribed with money, right?
Didn’t you see that even the corner of Mengxin Li Cu’s mouth twitched and she secretly cast a look of contempt at Boss Ma?
"Come down with us!"
Returning the big white dog's leg to Wu Xie who was distressed, Hu Ming patted Li Cu's chest and took the lead to step into the underground palace.
"Wait, I can't do it, Wu...Sekine, I have claustrophobia!"
Looking at the dark and narrow passage, Li Cu instinctively showed fear, grabbed Wu Xie's clothes and begged.
"Come down, I don't want to say it a second time, this is not a request, this is an order!"
"Don't forget that there are seven fingers behind your back. You are my hostage and you have no choice!"
Wu Xie grabbed Li Cu's collar and lowered his voice unquestionably.
"Wang Meng, as for you, you don't have to go down with us, even though Uncle Ming is here... just in case, you stay up there and be ready to contact him at any time, do you understand?"
After pushing Li Cu into the corridor, Wu Xie whispered to Wang Meng.
"Understood, boss, you and the second master should also be more careful!"
Wang Meng nodded and went up without looking back.
He was not a professional at this job. Over the years, what he found most comfortable was looking after stores and running errands for Wu Xie.
The underground passage was so dark that you couldn't see your fingers, and even a special flashlight couldn't illuminate a distance of more than 20 meters.
This dark and cramped environment eroded Li Cu's reason little by little, and the psychological shadow brought by his father once again tortured Li Cu's reason.
"It's still far from this level..."
Hu Ming, who was walking at the front, looked back at the trembling Li Cu who was comforted by Wu Xie's kind words, and murmured.
The top of the passage is covered with dry tree roots, and there are frequent downward stairs along the way.
"Hey... you scared me to death. What is this?"
Suddenly, one of Su Nan's subordinates tripped over a tree root that spread to his feet. He subconsciously grabbed the tree root next to the wall and discovered the covered big-eared human face.
After tearing open the dense tree roots, the group was shocked to find that the bottom of the walls on both sides had been hollowed out, filled with big-eared human-faced statues in various poses, and...
The stone sculpture of the Yuezhi Kingdom’s deity totem!
