It can be clearly said that after Wang Kaixuan showed his unique properties, the improvement in morale was not ordinary.
This is also the fundamental reason why Hu Bayi didn't worry at all even though he knew that the next situation might not be ideal.
Because no matter how powerful the black cockroaches encountered later are, with their obvious weaknesses, it won't be much more difficult for them.
These thoughts flashed through Hu Bayi's mind, and his eyes inadvertently swept across the ground in front of him. But this glance made him immediately put aside the messy thoughts in his mind.
Because he suddenly discovered that there were fewer black corpses scattered on the ground than before.
"Look." Seeing this, Hu Bayi quickly greeted the others.
Hearing his somewhat urgent voice, the others quickly put down what they were doing and gathered around him.
But after taking a closer look, he found nothing, so he had to cast doubtful eyes on Hu Bayi.
Hu Bayi then realized that the others did not know the previous situation here, so he looked at Chen Ziyan: "Mr. Chen, do you still remember what it was like here just now?"
Chen Ziyan was a little stunned when he heard this, and looked at the place pointed by Hu Bayi again.
Although he had just seen it once and found nothing, he could tell from Hu Bayi's words that he should be able to see something.
After taking another careful look, Chen Ziyan raised his head in confusion, but he still saw nothing.
Now there are the remains of black cockroaches all around, and they all look the same without any difference.
Seeing Chen Ziyan's expression, Hu Bayi knew that his expectations were in vain, so he had no choice but to tell his findings: "The number of wreckage here has decreased, no, to be more precise, all the wreckage is decreasing."
While Chen Ziyan was observing, he glanced around and came to the above conclusion.
In fact, Hu Bayi was not sure about his guess at the beginning, so he asked Chen Ziyan to take a look, which could be regarded as a verification.
Now Chen Ziyan couldn't see anything, so he had to use his new discovery as evidence.
"There are fewer wrecks?" Upon hearing this answer, Chen Ziyan's first reaction was not to verify, but to tighten his grip on his weapon.
This shows what?
This shows that under their noses, something is quietly stealing the remains of the black turtle.
As for whether what Hu Bayi said is correct or not.
Regarding this kind of thing, Chen Ziyan has always adhered to the principle of preferring to believe it, so even if it turns out to be a false alarm later, it is better than trying to fix the problem.
The reactions of the others were similar. Only a few lowered their heads to verify, while most looked around cautiously.
While Shirley Yang was inspecting the surrounding area, she did not forget to ask: "Mr. Hu, could you please tell me in more detail? For example, which part is missing?"
She didn't think anything could do such a thing around so many of them.
Rather than it being the work of some kind of creature, she was more willing to believe that Hu Bayi was wrong.
However, she did not directly raise her doubts, but planned to let Hu Bayi discover this on his own through verbal guidance.
Hu Bayi recalled for a while and said: "The specific parts...if I remember correctly, they should be those scattered limbs, or more importantly, the extremely small body tissues."
As the creator of the wreckage in front of him, and the person who has personally confirmed the complete death of every black cockroach, Hu Bayi is the person who knows the situation here best.
This was also the reason why he could sense something was wrong in the first place.
"Tissue fragments?" Upon hearing this, Chen Ziyan frowned slightly, quickly found a target that met the criteria, and began to stare closely at this piece of meat that was only two fingers wide.
He did not suspect that Hu Bayi was wrong, but he suspected that the thing that stole these body tissues might be some kind of creature that they could not easily find, such as some kind of extremely small insect.
If that were the case, it would really be possible to accomplish such a thing under their noses.
And under Chen Ziyan's gaze, the inconspicuous piece of tissue among the stumps on the ground actually changed slightly.
This tissue fragment seemed to be dissolved. The side close to the ground gradually melted and turned into a turbid liquid. Then it seemed to evaporate out of thin air and completely disappeared before his eyes.
Chen Ziyan's pupils shrank when he saw this scene, and he quickly stopped others from talking: "Look at this!"
Although others were expressing their own conjectures, what they said had no basis at all. After hearing Chen Ziyan's words, they immediately stopped talking and looked towards where he was pointing.
Because Chen Ziyan specifically made a "silence" gesture, no one asked. They were all looking at the inconspicuous piece of tissue just like Chen Ziyan was doing just now.
Even under the gaze of so many people, the things that may exist have not converged at all, and are still dissolving in their own way.
This time everyone could clearly see the entire process of how this unnoticed piece of tissue disappeared.
This also proves that Hu Bayi's discovery is not an illusion, and there is indeed something weird here.
"If this is really the work of a living creature, then there should be some kind of creature that is invisible to the naked eye."
After watching the dissolution process several times and finding nothing, Shirley Yang came up with this guess.
Regarding her idea, Chen Ziyan did not agree or veto it. He just looked around and said: "No matter what the reason is, it is no longer suitable to stay here. What we need to consider now is to continue
Go forward, or go back and make repairs."
Ever since he witnessed a piece of tissue fragment being dissolved, Chen Ziyan had given up the idea of temporarily staying here.
He was afraid that the people he brought would be swallowed up by something unknown unknowingly.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Shirley Yang was a little dissatisfied with Chen Ziyan's almost indifferent attitude, but she also knew that now was not the time to care about it, so she didn't say anything.
"It's still early. Even if we want to go back, we should first explore this place." Hu Bayi expressed his thoughts.
"I think this 'dissolution' phenomenon may be for flesh and blood tissue." He raised his foot and gestured to look at the intact sole: "So there will be no problem if you stay for a short time."
He felt that he should complete the exploration work before evacuating, so that even if he couldn't figure out why the body was dissolved, he could figure out what to do next.
After all, even if they don't do it now, they still need to do it tomorrow. They can't give up here and open up other roads.
Others also agreed with Hu Bayi's idea and felt that even if they were to withdraw for repairs, they had to first figure out the basic situation here.
Chen Ziyan saw that everyone's intentions were relatively unified, so he didn't say anything more and directly decided: "Then continue to explore here, but be careful not to stay in one place for too long, and always pay attention to the situation under your feet."
Even if you continue to act, you must always be vigilant.
No one would turn a deaf ear to Chen Ziyan's warning. They all saw the melting process of tissue fragments just now, and no one wanted to become one of them.
Now that the decision was made, everyone did not delay any further and dispersed in batches to explore the underground space full of artificial traces.
As for Chen Ziyan and his group, they led a dozen people along the black stone road and headed straight towards the end of the road.
Their target is that building.
The actual area of this underground space was far larger than they imagined, so it took them ten minutes to reach the end of the stone road.
The first thing that catches the eye is the majestic building leaning on the rock wall. Only the front part of this building is exposed, and the remaining part seems to be hidden in the soil.
The entire building is made of some kind of jet black rock, and it looks full of ancient and vicissitudes of life.
The most eye-catching ones are undoubtedly the two giant doors that are more than three meters high. No matter how you look at them, they don't look like they are prepared for humans, but more like the residence of giants.
In front of the building, there are eight stone pillars standing opposite each other. These stone pillars are as thick as two people holding each other's arms. The pillars are carved with strange and rough spider reliefs. Not surprisingly, the prototypes of these reliefs should be black cockroaches with human faces.
"What the hell is this place?" Wang Kaixuan looked at the things in front of him and couldn't help but ask.
Previously, it was said that this place was a place where tomb-guarding beasts were raised, but judging from the current situation, this place does not look like it is an integral part of the ancient tomb.
Hu Bayi also had a solemn expression, pointing to the stone pillars and buildings in front of him and said: "This does not look like a product of the Tang Dynasty, but it is closer to the style of the Western Zhou Dynasty."
Although he can't grasp the knowledge in this area like Big Gold Tooth, there is still no problem in making a preliminary appraisal.
Even Chen Ziyan, who knew the inside story, was full of doubts at this time.
Because what appeared in front of him was beyond the scope of his knowledge. He didn't remember that the temple in the original plot was so grand.
At this time, Ding Sitian said thoughtfully: "The atmosphere here gives me a familiar feeling. If I guess correctly, what we have to face next is probably more than just people with black faces."
It’s so simple.”
"It's not just black cocks?" Chen Ziyan suddenly looked at her and asked, "Can you make it clearer?"
He had a hunch that what Ding Sitian knew might be the main reason for the deviation from memory here.
But it is a pity that when faced with Chen Ziyan's inquiry, Ding Sitian shook her head helplessly and explained: "You should have some guesses about my work, so you should know that those things are done without authorization.
, and cannot be disclosed casually."
An unexpected and reasonable answer.
Chen Ziyan could understand, so he didn't ask any more questions.
Although I don't know the specific situation of Ding Sitian's department, from what I have encountered so far, I know that it is a mysterious place with great power.
So she said she couldn't disclose it, so it was inappropriate to continue the topic.
"Then should we go in and take a look?" Shirley Yang looked curiously at the temple in front of her and asked.
"There is no other way here. If you want to find something, you have to go in and take a look." Chen Ziyan nodded lightly at first, then seemed to remember something, and told Wang Kaixuan beside him: "Fat man, wait until the door opens.
You stay away first."
If they rashly step into an unknown place, the most dangerous one among them is Wang Kaixuan.
After all, other people don't have that weird appeal.
"Don't worry, Mr. Chen." Wang Kaixuan also knew this and immediately backed away some distance.
Afterwards, Chen Ziyan and the others came to the two giant doors after confirming that there were no traps outside.
"Slow down as much as possible later, and don't let your body be exposed to the cover of the door." Hu Bayi, who was responsible for leading people to open the door, specifically warned before taking action.
He knew very well that in an underground building like this, some mechanism might be triggered when opening the door.
The militiamen who followed them had no experience in this area, so they had to mention something.
The militiamen were not unscrupulous people, and their experiences during this period made them understand that the leaders were all capable people, so after hearing Hu Bayi's warning, they immediately moved back in an orderly manner.
One step forward.
Seeing this, Hu Bayi nodded with satisfaction, then pressed his hands on the giant door and commanded: "Get ready-"
"one!"
"two!"
"three!"
"push--"
Following the last word "push", the people standing on both sides pushed the giant door inward with all their strength.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! As more than a dozen people exerted force at the same time, even though the two giant doors were very heavy, they were slowly pushed open a gap.
Chen Ziyan, who was standing not far from the giant door, put a prepared small round mirror over it the moment the gap appeared, hoping to see what was going on inside.
As for the origin of this small mirror, I would like to thank Comrade Shirley Yang for her friendly sponsorship.
Facts have proved that even the toughest women will carry small things like this with them to take care of their image.
Through this small mirror, Chen Ziyan did not see the black-faced figure he expected. The first and only thing that appeared was a huge bronze tripod.
This is a huge bronze cauldron that is as tall as a person. The cauldron is full of strange patterns and is located in the center of the building.
Seeing the situation inside, Chen Ziyan took back the small round mirror and said to Hu Bayi, who was waiting for the signal: "Go on, there is nothing inside."
Then he stepped aside and waited until Hu Bayi and the others pushed the door completely open.
It is said that it is completely pushed away, but in fact it is only pushed to the extent that ordinary people can pass through.
After completing this goal, they first conducted a routine test, and after confirming that there were no triggering mechanisms inside, they slowly entered it.
"My dear, this is really a big treasure!" Before Wang Kaixuan entered the door, his eyes were glued to the giant bronze cauldron. As soon as he entered, he went straight to the cauldron.
Now he is not the tape boss in the past, he is very aware of the value of the thing in front of him.
However, Hu Bayi didn't pay much attention to the cauldron. He only glanced at it twice and then moved his eyes elsewhere. He also reminded Wang Kaixuan: "Don't think about this thing. As long as you can determine the age, it will be absolutely priceless."
It’s a national treasure that no one in the country dares to touch.”
As for foreign countries, he didn't mention it at all.
If anyone dares to get this thing abroad, he is a traitor. They will not do such a thing.
Wang Kaixuan actually knew this, but this did not prevent him from getting closer to the treasure at all. He refused to admit defeat and said: "So what, this treasure will not be placed in our museum in the end."
Hu Bayi was too lazy to pay attention to him, but turned to Chen Ziyan and said, "Mr. Chen, if this thing is really placed in our museum, then we have to pay attention to security."
Although the previous exhibits were also valuable, they were definitely not as attractive as this.
This thing belongs to the type that no one dares to touch easily, and it is done without any scruples.
Chen Ziyan glanced at the giant bronze cauldron and said with a smile: "Don't worry, I have arrangements."
To him, this thing was not just a national treasure, but also a powerful amulet if handled properly.
It can be said that one of the purposes of Chen Ziyan's trip here is this giant bronze tripod from the Western Zhou Dynasty.
Maybe Hu Bayi and Wang Kaixuan didn't know that much about it, but as a professional, Chen Ziyan knew what this thing represented.
To put it bluntly, all the things underground may not be as valuable as this bronze tripod.
Just when Chen Ziyan was reviewing his thoughts, Shirley Yang suddenly reminded: "Look above your head."
Chen Ziyan and the others subconsciously looked up and saw murals neatly painted on the top of the building.
Perhaps due to their age, the colors of these murals have faded, but they themselves have not been affected, and the contents inside can still be seen clearly.
"This is..." Scanning several murals quickly, a look of horror appeared in Chen Ziyan's eyes.
The content recorded above is simply a replica of King Wannu, okay?
He really didn't expect that the dark-faced man with a dark face, who was not described in the original plot, would actually hide such a secret.
It is precisely thanks to these murals that Chen Ziyan has a deeper understanding of the place where he is now, as well as the ins and outs of this temple and the black-faced turtle.
There was just one thing he was curious about, and that was--
