I saw that the entire bottomless passage was completely covered in gold three meters from the entrance, and the golden light shone brightly in everyone's eyes.
"Damn it, old man, your Atlantis family is really rich. All this gold is used to plaster the walls..."
Looking at the smooth, mirror-like golden passage wall in front of him, Ye Huang couldn't help but sigh.
Gold has been a scarce commodity since ancient times and is a symbol of power and status. Even now, it is still the primary currency for strategic reserves of various countries.
Who would have thought that the Atlantis family could use gold to cover its walls in ancient times? Even the most prosperous dynasties in ancient times did not have this courage, right?
"It is said that Atlantis was as rich as any other country in those days, and the amount of gold it held was indeed a bit scary."
Not long after Ye Huang finished speaking, Beitang Haotian also sighed. From the astonished eyes of others, it was easy to see that everyone was slightly surprised by the scene in front of them.
Everyone has seen gold, but probably no one has seen anything as large as this passage.
Many of the people present had entered the national reserve vault, and the gold reserves inside were incomparable to what was in front of them.
"Don't be rude to me. Gold is indeed a huge wealth if placed elsewhere, but it was not a rare thing in Atlantis thousands of years ago."
"Oh? How to say?"
Beitang Haotian asked with some doubts.
"The Atlantis family's territory is on a volcanic crater, and it is also an active volcano. I have checked some books about them before, and it seems that this volcano has brought up a lot of mineral deposits from the underground, among which
Most of them are gold. In the hands of other people, gold may be a valuable thing, but in the Atlantis family, it is indeed not a high-value thing."
"Haha, I really didn't realize that Brother Ye actually knows so much about the history of Atlantis, I'm a little surprised..."
Misluo glanced sideways at Ye Zhiqiu, saying that the person he couldn't understand the most was probably the Ye family.
The miraculous rise of the Ye Dynasty, which has been extremely wealthy for decades, is really shocking.
It would be fine if there was only one Ye Dynasty. As a result, the Ye family is extremely legendary from top to bottom. Ye Zhiqiu, Ye Qingmei, Ye Huang, and even the Qinglong Xiao Yichen, who is half of the Ye family, all have bright and glorious resumes.
.
Especially this Ye Zhiqiu, almost everyone knew nothing about him except that he was the second eldest son of the Ye family.
All I know is that he was the number one dandy in the capital more than 20 years ago. Everyone in Yanjing City, from the leaders to the local gangsters, were severely punished by him, but no one dared to retaliate.
After confirming that Ye Huang came from the Ye family, as Mia's father, he began to investigate the Ye family.
As a result, the personnel he deployed to investigate encountered layers of resistance. Even if they did investigate some clues, they were deliberately cut off by some people.
In the end, some of the information he got was not as much as what Ye Huang told him.
But even this kid probably doesn't know very well what kind of family his Ye family is and how powerful it is.
"The reason why I know this is because it was recorded in a piece of historical material I saw in the British Museum. I didn't take it seriously at first, but seeing this passage and the successive confirmations made me think it was true.
.”
Ye Zhiqiu smiled lightly and agreed.
"Oh, you two, stop muttering about who is more knowledgeable. If you don't leave, you will really be unable to catch up."
On the side, Emperor Ye looked a little anxiously. This group of people came to prepare for a fight and not to do archeology. Is it so clear?
"That's right, what my disciple is saying is that if you really want to test each other out, you should wait until the business is finished. Disciple, let's leave first. Lao Zhao, Hong Feng, and Xue'er, all of you, please follow.
Let them talk here."
With a wave of his hand, Beitang Haotian gave the order, and a group of people entered the passage directly under his leadership.
In the end, Misluo and Ye Zhiqiu stood in front of the door and looked at each other for a while. They could only smile bitterly, shake their heads and follow.
After walking in this passage covered with gold for more than ten minutes, when everyone's eyes were about to be dazzled, they finally walked out.
A huge waterfall flows in front, isolating the golden passage from a dark passage on the other side.
"Hey, this place is very shallow. You can just wade through it."
Duanmu Yinzhu, who was following behind, took a look at the underground river flowing underground. The water surface was very wide, but the water depth was extremely shallow. After a visual inspection, it was not even deep enough to reach his knees.
"If we continue like this, I'm afraid there won't even be any bones left, look at it."
It was Ye Huang who spoke. He tore off a piece of cloth from his body and threw it into the water.
In front of everyone's sight, the cloth quickly turned black and fell off, and was then washed under the cliff.
"This is? Sulfuric acid!"
Beitang Xue exclaimed.
"Yes! This is a sulfuric acid river, which is caused by the operation of active volcanoes. According to the classics, the depth of this sulfuric acid river is five to six meters, but now it is only so thin. It seems that the geological processes over the past hundred years have made this river
The sulfuric acid river has weakened a lot.",
Mislow seems to be no stranger to this sulfuric acid river.
"Five meters, if it falls so wide, all the garbage will be left."
"Otherwise, there would be no point in the existence of this sulfuric acid river here. The purpose of this sulfuric acid river is to prevent people from sneaking into the cemetery!"
"The older generation of your family is quite cruel."
Emperor Ye was astonished.
"Didn't your previous Chinese emperors have a lot of control over their own tombs? I don't think anyone wants their resting place to be disturbed after death, right?"
With a smile, Mislow motioned for everyone to get out of the way, and then groped for a while on the cliff made of gold, and then pressed on an inconspicuous place, and there was a sound of a mechanism.
Under the cliff where everyone was originally standing, two caves appeared, and two small boats wrapped in gold slowly slid out from the caves.
The boat is not too big, but it can hold four or five people, and the two boats can fit all of them on board.
"The skin of these ships is covered with gold. Sulfuric acid cannot corrode gold. Your ancestors did it very carefully." Beitang Haotian was also impressed by the wisdom of the ancestors of the Atlantis family.
The location of the hidden gold ship is probably only known to a few core figures within the clan, and it is impossible for outsiders to know.
This ensures that in the event of an emergency, people within the clan can pass through, but outsiders cannot.
"Haha, senior, you have given me too much praise. Let's get on the boat. After crossing this sulfuric acid river, there are still a few hurdles ahead. We will be there after we cross it."
After some chattering, the group of people jumped on the boat and slowly headed towards the other side.
While walking, Mislow pointed at the top of the rock above the river. The dense clusters of arrows shining with purple light were pointed at them, making those who looked at them feel their scalps numb.
Later, after asking Mislow, I found out that these arrow clusters were specially designed to deal with people with advanced martial arts skills. Once someone flies by, the mechanism will be triggered, and then thousands of arrows will be fired.
Unless you have truly developed an indestructible body, you are destined to be shot into a hornet's nest and fall into this sulfuric acid. It is impossible to survive.
