What hangs on this alchemy furnace is none other than a rusty, ancient green military kettle with only a yellow five-pointed star printed on it.
With a kettle like this, even if Chen Ran didn't know much about the military, he could tell that it was a kettle used by the People's Liberation Army after the founding of the People's Republic of China.
Chen Ran had known that the weirdo and his comrades were from the People's Liberation Army, so he was not too surprised when he saw this kettle. However, judging from the style of this kettle, although it was after liberation, it should not have been liberated either.
How many years.
Thinking about the fact that the weirdo is still alive till now, Chen Ran couldn't help but secretly marveled.
In addition to the kettle, there was also a rusty rifle with a bayonet dropped a few steps away from the alchemy furnace.
Chen Ran didn't have much reaction when he discovered the military kettle and rifle, but Xiaoyu, who came with him, was stunned for a moment.
The situation of the weirdo was really a bit outrageous, and the process was so thrilling that Chen Ran was still scared to this day, so he didn't tell Xiaoyu in detail about the weirdo's situation at that time. Xiaoyu didn't know that this time
Well, now that I suddenly saw these two things, I was naturally a little surprised.
However, she was only surprised. Since this place was not the underground vault of Prince Qi's Mansion as they imagined, it was undoubtedly normal that other people had come before. The most important thing for them now was not whether anyone came.
It's about whether the people who came in finally left.
So after Xiaoyu was surprised, she accompanied Chen Ran to find other useful things.
It's just strange to say that according to the weirdo, there should be several of them including himself, but now apart from this kettle and this rifle, Chen Ran didn't find anything else.
This made Chen Ran a little strange. Even if the weirdo swallowed his comrades, there should be something left behind.
After looking over and seeing nothing else, Chen Ran released his alchemy energy and began to search for a way out from where he stood.
After Mr. Hou and the others looked here and there, they also started knocking in the stone room in search of an exit.
Seeing Chen Ran and Mr. Hou looking for a way out, Wu Bing, who was resting next to the Bagua stove, also stood up and actively chose a direction to search.
Wu Bing stood up. Zhang Yang and Huang Shaopeng, two big men, were embarrassed to still sit there. Although they were hungry and thirsty and had no strength, they still stood up with their bodies that had almost lost all feeling and hesitantly went their separate ways.
I chose a direction and started walking and looking.
Although the stone room was bright and bright, Huang Lele did not dare to sit there alone, so she had to stand up and follow her brother.
Chen Ran detected it very carefully, up and down, left and right, inside and outside. He didn't miss any part of it. The alchemy furnace on the floor, the limit of the alchemy energy under the floor that could be detected.
Since the weirdo and his comrades did not find a way out here, it means that even if there is a way out, it must be a secret passage.
In order not to miss any place, Chen Ran divided the entire stone chamber into four large areas. He memorized the division boundaries in his mind and would rather detect again than miss any gap.
This alchemy room is very big. This is definitely a big project for Chen Ran, but he can only do this in order to find a way out.
In addition to Chen Ran who was looking for a way out, Mr. Hou and the others were also looking for a way out in the big stone hall, but it was obvious that the possibility of them finding a way out was almost zero.
This can't be blamed on them, after all, they don't have Chen Ran's elixir energy to see through objects. All they can do is put their ears to the walls and floors, banging and listening.
Chen Ran didn't count on them either. Obviously, if he wanted to find a way out, the key was to rely on himself.,
Chen Ran started from the first area he divided and searched bit by bit until he reached the fifth floor where the alchemy furnace was placed.
When Chen Ran was detecting and searching, although he did not miss these alchemy furnaces, the focus of his detection was not actually these alchemy furnaces. However, when he detected an alchemy furnace on this floor, he was suddenly startled.
After being stunned, Chen Ran immediately rushed to the alchemy furnace.
This alchemy furnace is very tall, six or seven meters high, and it is shaped like a gourd, but it is not a gourd shape with a big belly, but a gourd shape like a tall and thin person.
When looking at this alchemy furnace, it is obvious that this alchemy furnace must have been hit hard. In fact, this alchemy furnace is not the first alchemy furnace that Chen Ran has seen that has been hit hard.
Almost all the alchemy furnaces placed here have been hit more or less hard, as if they were artificially smashed with heavy objects or hit by tools such as cars.
Regarding this point, Chen Ran guessed that it should be the work of the Japanese army. Now that it was confirmed that what the weirdo said was true, the things about the Japanese army were obviously true.
According to the chronological order, Chen Ran guessed that Prince Qi discovered this place first, and then Prince Qi used it as a place for him to hide treasures or for other purposes. No matter what the purpose was, it was Prince Qi who occupied the secret of this place.
built this place.
Later, the Japanese army should have also discovered this place, and then they also occupied this place. As for whether the Japanese army occupied this place while Prince Qi was still alive or after Prince Qi's death, it is not clear.
You must know that Prince Qi colluded with the Japanese army when he was alive in history. When the Puppet Manchuria supported by the Japanese army was established, it is not an exaggeration to say that Prince Qi was able to cover the sky with one hand in the Puppet Manchuria. Maybe the Japanese army valued Prince Qi so much at that time.
Because Prince Qi gave this place to the Japanese army.
Later, it was obvious that the Japanese army secretly built this place as their base, and it was not discovered by the weirdo and his comrades until many years after the founding of the People's Republic of China.
Now that they were discovered, the Japanese army wanted to withdraw. Needless to say, before leaving, they must have destroyed or destroyed the purpose of occupying this place in order to prevent the Chinese from discovering the secrets here.
As for the purpose of Prince Qi and the Japanese army in occupying this place, it is obviously related to these alchemy furnaces, but I don't know what they used these alchemy furnaces for.
Almost all of these alchemy furnaces have been destroyed, but the destruction of this one is different from others.
The other alchemy furnaces were all hit or hit by something. To be specific, if the others were hit by tools such as cars, then this alchemy furnace was hit by a hammer.
My stomach was hit so hard that I couldn't hold it in. The dragon's mouth decorations outside were also bent, and the small window that opened the alchemy furnace was completely sunken.
When Chen Ran was detecting, Xiaoyu also followed Chen Ran. Chen Ran had already told her the use of his powers, so she naturally knew what Chen Ran was doing.
Seeing Chen Ran suddenly startled for a moment and then walked directly to the alchemy furnace, she naturally guessed what Chen Ran had discovered and hurriedly followed him.
Chen Ran walked over and took a look, then took off the backpack on his shoulders and handed it to Xiaoyu along with the flashlight in his hand. Then he walked around the alchemy furnace and found the one who opened the alchemy furnace.
wicket.
This small door is not wide, but it is half a person's height. However, this small door should have been pulled outwards, but now it has been smashed in.
Chen Ran came closer and took a look, then stretched out his hands to grab the small door and pulled it up, but it was stuck there. After pulling twice, it didn't move. He put his right leg on the stove and gritted his teeth and pulled hard twice.
Then I pulled the small door from the inside of the door crack to the outside.
However, after pulling it out a little, it couldn't be pulled anymore. Chen Ran walked to one side and kicked it from one side to open the small door.
After the door opened, Chen Ran stuck his head in and took a look. The inside of the stove had obviously been damaged. It looked messy, but there were two corpses leaning on one side.
The two corpses were well preserved, except that the clothes on their bodies seemed to have been roasted and burned, and their hair and eyelashes were also burned away.
Although Chen Ran had already seen these two corpses through Dan Qi, the moment he poked his head in and saw these two corpses, he was still shocked!
This is because these two corpses are so weird!
To say that they are two corpses is actually better to say that they are two brass figures, just like the brass figures in the crystal coffin in the stone chamber just now. The only difference is that the color of the two brass figures is not as bright as that one.
and light.
The brass figure in the crystal coffin is almost golden and very bright. Although the color of the two brass figures is brass, the yellow is not obvious.
They said they were weird because when they discovered the brass figure in the crystal coffin, the brass figure had its eyes closed and didn't feel much when looking at it.
But the two brass men in front of us are different. First of all, let’s talk about the postures of the two brass men. The postures of the two brass men are as if one of the brass men is dragging the other brass man in.
It seemed as if he had fallen into the furnace, and the brass man who was dragged in must have been seriously injured and was lying in the arms of another brass man. His feet happened to be in the direction of the small door.
The lying brass man stared at the sitting brass man holding him with his wide copper eyes. It was as if he was exchanging some important last words with the brass man holding him.
He died suddenly before he finished speaking.
What kind of expression is that?
Regret, unwillingness, sadness, confusion...
The one sitting there was leaning against the inner wall of the stove, looking towards the door. There seemed to be tears in his eyes, and although his eyes were looking towards the door, it seemed that he was dying before he died.
He seemed to want to take another look at the brass man lying in his arms, but it was obvious that he didn't see it in the end.
He died very peacefully. He must have been thinking about something when he died. There was a trace of nostalgia and nostalgia in his expression. In addition to nostalgia and nostalgia, there seemed to be a bit of worry and confusion between his eyebrows.
There was a rifle slung on his shoulder, and the lying brass man was holding something dark in his hand, as if he wanted to hand it to him, but he did not take it.
All this shows that they are two corpses, not two poured-out brass men.
Seeing these two corpses, Chen Ran was shocked and immediately thought of many things...
