Eggplant was so tired that he sat on the steps and said, "Wuhu, it's really dangerous to go out with you."
Chen Ke complained: "Just be content, it would be nice to have a place to hide."
Ji Han asked curiously: "Chen Ke, how did you find this place?"
"I discovered it by accident while being chased by those zombies. I asked you to come down without thinking much. I don't know where this is."
Song Qian looked at the situation around her and touched the steps where the soles of her feet were as warm as jade and illuminated with white light.
The steps wind down and I don't know where they lead.
Listening to the silence outside, Ji Han whispered:
"Those Mo Zheng must still be outside, and since the warriors have also started to prevent people who come in from leaving, it's hard to say whether the exit outside will be affected. We may have to find another way out. Let's go down and take a look first."
The three of them also agreed and went down the stone steps one by one.
The white-lit stone steps illuminate the tunnel so clearly that you don’t even need to turn on a flashlight.
Compared with the black tower outside, this soft white light is quite reassuring.
After descending about two floors, a basement of sixty or seventy square meters appeared in front of everyone.
The entire basement is made of normal bluestone. Next to the stairs leading down, there is a table with many bottles and jars placed on the table.
At the end of the basement directly opposite the stairs is a cell.
But this cell is unique, because the cell door is made of luminous jade pillars, and the material seems to be the same as the luminous jade steps outside.
Although the cell was not opened, there was no one or anything imprisoned inside.
Seeing this situation, the four of them were even more confused.
Chen Ke turned on the flashlight and said, "Why can't I understand this? Where is this place?"
Song Qian replied: "It seems to be an underground cell."
Eggplant put away the gun and said: "How can there be a prison like this? The jade pillar cage is still shining. Is the emperor imprisoned? Besides, such thin stone pillars can be broken with one kick."
Eggplant is right, this cell is more like a decoration.
"Hey, come here and take a look at this."
Chen Ke turned on his flashlight and found a stack of paper on the desk with dense writing on it.
When everyone gathered around, Chen Ke directly handed a stack of paper to Ji Han.
"Brother Ji, it depends on your exaggerated reading speed."
Huh, at the critical moment, you still have to look at the money players.
After dusting off the paper, Ji Han turned the paper over in front of his eyes. With the sound of the paper colliding, the contents entered his brain.
Ji Han frowned, rolled his eyes and said:
"I'm so embarrassed."
These pieces of paper are the final letters of an ancestor of the Liu family. It seems that he may have been the patriarch of the Liu family at that time.
It probably means that I have repeatedly checked the safety conditions of the nine sacred pillars and "mirror corners" scattered all over the world.
However, he has gradually grown tired of the unshirkable responsibility of protecting the divine pillar brought about by this powerful spatial ability.
If members of the Liu family give up this responsibility, their superpowers will disappear and future generations will no longer be able to produce superpowers. This is how some branches of the Liu family left.
The clan leader seemed to be dissatisfied with this. In order to free some clan members from the responsibility of protecting the sacred pillars and to develop new abilities freely, this ancestor of the Liu family searched everywhere for a way.
Until one time when he was inspecting a certain divine pillar in the other world, he accidentally discovered a monster that could devour supernatural powers, so he caught the thing back.
If the monster can devour the space powers of the Liu family, then the Liu family will not have to perform the responsibility of guarding the divine pillar. But this does not mean that they give up their powers, so future generations can have a new life with powers.
The plan was very good, but something unexpected happened during the attempt. The monster's ability to devour flesh and blood far exceeded its devouring power.
After killing several Liu family descendants one after another, the Liu family ancestor became disheartened and had no choice but to give up this path.
After designing the nine-story tower that was moved there together with the Liu family, he also devoted himself to feeding the imprisoned monster to atone for his crime of killing his own people.
He also informed future generations that they were not allowed to bury him.
After Ji Han told everyone the contents of the letter, everyone began to slowly digest this large amount of information.
Chen Ke was shocked and said: "Damn it, did they really move this nine-story black tower?"
Ji Han nodded: "The final letter should not lie."
I didn't expect that the Liu family's space powers in the game were so terrifying. Fortunately, there were no people left, otherwise how would they have been able to defeat them.
Song Qian said: "Brother Han, what is the 'mirror angle' you just mentioned? Did it say it in the letter?"
Ji Han shook his head: "No, it just said to protect the safety of the divine pillar and the 'mirror corner', but the specifics were not written."
Song Qian opened her backpack and took out the bronze mirror from the third floor of the Black Tower to show everyone.
"I got this from the third floor of the Black Tower. The zombies had already run out. Take a look."
What is heavy in the hand is indeed a bronze mirror, and it looks particularly ancient, with some patina and crystals.
Chen Ke widened his eyes and said, "Damn it, this thing should be from the third generation period."
Eggplant looked unbelieving: "Do you still understand this?"
"I'm very knowledgeable about antiquities. I can't be wrong. It's something from the Three Dynasties period."
Ji Han was also a little unbelievable. He took it and took a look. Although he didn't understand antiques, the Three Dynasties Period was no joke. The bronzes of the Xia, Shang and Zhou Dynasties could not be described as "rare".
If this is not a game but reality, then you can judge it yourself.
Thinking that Ji Han scanned the bronze mirror, there was actually game information.
[Item: Pre-Qin Nine-Star Mirror]
[Explanation: It was built by the first person to discover the divine pillar, which is related to the location of the divine pillar]
[Cash value: 500 years]
Good guy, don’t tell me how much it’s worth, tell me five hundred years.
Stealing this mirror is as much a crime as Sun Wukong causing havoc in heaven.
Looking at the back, I saw that the nine stars were indeed engraved on the back of the bronze mirror, but the positions of the nine stars were all incomplete.
No one has yet figured out the purpose of this pre-Qin nine-star mirror, but placing it in such a dangerous place as a zombie house shows that it is indeed very important.
Eggplant didn't care about the bronze mirror, but started from the present:
"In other words, the place where we are is the place where the ancestors of the Liu family imprisoned monsters?"
"Looking at the description in the letter, it should be like this."
After saying that, Ji Han walked towards the cell at the end of the basement, followed by the three of them.
After getting closer, through the cell door with jade pillars, the four of them saw that there was indeed a clothed withered skeleton in the cell.
Because he was paralyzed on the ground, he didn't even see it when he came in.
The bones of the clothes were badly decayed.
"That's not right."
Ji Han scratched his head and said.
"Brother Ji, what's wrong? Isn't this corpse the author of the letter?"
"Didn't the author of the letter just say that he surrendered to feed the monster? And the body was not allowed to be buried, but why is there only one corpse in this prison, where is the monster?"
