After reaching a consensus on this, Chen Ziyan will immediately start the next arrangements.
In fact, there is nothing to arrange. It is just to leave a few people brought by Li Wu to act as living coordinates.
According to Chen Ziyan's idea, he planned to let Wu Laogou stay here. After all, he didn't know the quality of Li Wu's men. It was not easy to know the living coordinates. After all, no one knew what would happen if he stayed where he was.
There will be no danger.
However, Wu Laogou resolutely rejected Chen Ziyan's proposal. Wu Laogou knew very well that no matter how dangerous the things hidden in the underground space were, it would be safer to stay with Chen Ziyan and the others.
Needless to say, Chen Ziyan and the Huahu around him are all strange people. Even Li Wu, who always seems to be timid, is someone who can be the general manager of a province. His usual performance is countless.
, if you really encounter danger, you will definitely be someone who can help you.
And more importantly, as he learned more about this place, Wu Laogou also saw the value of this place, so how could he be left out of exploring such an important thing?
Chen Ziyan probably guessed some of Wu Laogou's thoughts, so after trying to persuade him once to no avail, he simply didn't mention the topic again.
For a veteran who has been involved in the world for decades, it is not his turn to worry about safety issues. It is enough to show him the attitude he should have.
As for whether to accept it or not, that is their own business.
When they came to the edge of the cement disc, Chen Ziyan and others did not go down immediately, but stopped here.
Because the place below is covered with thick bones, and you can’t even see the end at a glance.
"These are all snake bones." Wu Laogou took one look and identified what kind of creature the white bones on the ground came from.
After all, snakes have distinct skeletal features that make them easy to identify.
"Master Chen, Master Wu, look over there." Li Wu suddenly shouted.
Chen Ziyan and Wu Laogou looked in the direction of his flashlight and discovered that about ten meters ahead, there was a very conspicuous skeleton entwined among the white snake bones of different sizes.
This is also a snake bone, but the size is a bit too large. The spine alone must be as thick as an ordinary person's waist.
When they saw this extraordinarily strong skeleton, both Chen Ziyan and Wu Laogou frowned slightly.
None of them were novices on their first day out, and they knew very well what the appearance of this snake bone represented, which meant that if there were still living creatures here, it was very likely that such a behemoth would exist.
Although the snake's skeleton is not much different from the body, it is not difficult to imagine how terrifying this thing was when it was alive.
For ordinary people, there is basically no problem if you take one bite at a time.
"Little friend Chen, what kind of place do you think this is?" Wu Laogou said quietly after being silent for a while.
He has now completely overturned his previous guesses. This is definitely not a tomb, and this is not a burial ditch.
"Some ancient ruins." Chen Ziyan thought for a while and gave an answer.
This is the most likely answer he got after synthesizing all the information.
"Ancient ruins?" Li Wu's eyes flickered when he heard this.
In a sense, ancient ruins buried deep underground may be more valuable than tombs.
"Relics?" Wu Laogou muttered in a low voice, and then said: "Everyone should be more vigilant later. If this is really a ruins, it may be dangerous."
He didn't think much about the issue of value, but thought of the previous inference. The conclusion that the black-haired snake is a tomb-guarding beast was all based on the existence of a tomb here. Now the possibility of a tomb is greatly reduced, which means that the black-haired snake is a tomb-guarding beast.
The snake problem has once again fallen into confusion.
At this moment, Wu Laogou had a vague hunch that the black-haired snakes that were regarded as rare ingredients were most likely to be more valuable than he imagined, but he still didn't know where this value came from.
After careful inspection, everyone determined that there were only bones down there, so they descended from the cement disc to the ground one by one.
Click click click——
Stepping on the snake bones everywhere, listening to the clicking sound under their feet, even though the surroundings were quiet, everyone still raised their vigilance to the highest level.
However, what they feared did not happen. They did not encounter any attacks until they walked out of the area covered by the snake bones.
After stepping onto the hard dirt ground, Chen Ziyan couldn't help but look back. Under the illumination of the flashlight, there was a vast expanse of white behind him, giving people an uncontrollable sense of creepiness.
"Those white bones should be distributed in a circle." Wu Laogou stood next to him and suddenly said this.
"Fifth Master, why do you see this?" Chen Ziyan asked curiously.
He really didn't realize this. After all, their vision relied on light, and the light couldn't reach the end of the bones.
Wu Laogou was silent for a moment, and then slowly said: "I have seen similar scenes before."
It was only when he got here that he remembered that he had encountered a similar place before, except that this place was full of snake bones, and the one he had encountered before was replaced by numerous human bones.
It was precisely because of this difference that Wu Laogou did not think of it at the first time.
When Wu Laogou said that he had encountered a similar place, everyone subconsciously looked at him.
Chen Ziyan couldn't help but be startled, and asked hurriedly: "Fifth Master, what do you know?"
This is very important information.
You must know that after arriving here, Chen Ziyan's foresight has lost its effect, and everything has to be discovered by himself.
But now Wu Laogou suddenly said that he had been to a similar place, which was a great thing for them.
Even if the two places are not related, some things are inseparable from the same origin, and drawing parallels may lead to new ideas.
"I don't know much. I was not in charge of that operation, and I didn't participate in it later, so I just know what I have experienced." Wu Laogou said with a frown, apparently recalling relevant memories. p>
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading!
The others did not urge them, but waited quietly.
They knew that Wu Laogou's words were not a shirk, but a foreshadowing.
Sure enough, not long after waiting, I heard Wu Laogou's voice ringing again.
"That happened a long time ago... I remember it was about four years ago. We went to the depths of the Qinling Mountains together and discovered the ruins of a vanished ancient country there. But the difference from here is that the ruins were in
Inside a mountain, there was a disk where we entered, but the disk was carved from a whole piece of rock, and there was a circle of human bones surrounding it..."
Wu Laogou's story is not complete and is broken in many places, but it sounds like there are no obstacles.
"Ancient She Kingdom." After listening to Wu Laogou's story, Chen Ziyan slowly spit out three words.
In fact, not long after the beginning, he already felt vaguely familiar. After mentioning that the ruins were deep in the Qinling Mountains, Chen Ziyan was already sure of what Wu Laogou was talking about.
Coincidences do exist in the world, but how could there be so many of them, and it is extremely difficult for two ancient ruins like this to appear in the same area.
"Little friend Chen, do you know She Country?" Wu Laogou was also very surprised.
You must know that the ancient country She State has long since disappeared in history. Unless they are experts who specialize in this field, ordinary people have no way of knowing it.
Now that Chen Ziyan can pronounce this name, it means that he does understand it.
Chen Ziyan nodded: "Because of the elders in the family, I know some relevant things."
He did not say that he knew what was in Qinling Mountains, but directly blamed his elders for the matter.
But others don't doubt anything. After all, who in the industry doesn't know that Chen Ziyan is the contemporary leader of Xiling bandits. Although the Xiling line has had its ups and downs, it has not lost its inheritance for thousands of years and knows some secrets that ordinary people don't know.
It's normal.
Not to mention knowing the ancient She Kingdom, even if Chen Ziyan knew the environment in front of him very well, Li Wu and Wu Laogou would not be too surprised.
There is no way, the ancient inheritance is so powerful, it may not have much deterrence in terms of power and strength, but when it comes to knowledge... The Nine Sects are the younger brothers!
Wu Laogou himself admits this.
"Fifth Master, who were there when you went to Qinling Mountains?" Chen Ziyan suddenly thought of something and asked.
Wu Laogou glanced at him and said: "That time it was the Bureau formed by Lord Fo. At that time, all the nine gates sent manpower."
"Lord Buddha..." Chen Ziyan nodded thoughtfully.
Wu Laogou glanced at Li Wu and others next to him, thought for a while and asked: "Little friend Chen, do you know what's going on here?"
He felt that Chen Ziyan would not be innocent, and there must be his purpose in asking this question.
Although there are outsiders around now, this matter is not a secret, so Wu Laogou still asked out his doubts.
Chen Ziyan thought about it in his mind and said, "I know very little about the Qinling Mountains. I only heard that the place is extremely dangerous and a very evil place, but I suddenly thought of a place that might be related to this place." He planned to test Wu Laogou to see how deeply involved he was with Zhang Dafo Ye, and how deep the cooperation between the two parties would be in the future.
"Where?" Wu Laogou narrowed his eyes.
"Gutongjing!" Chen Ziyan slowly spit out a place name.
"Gu Tongjing?" Wu Laogou's pupils narrowed.
How could he not know this place? He thought that the Wu family had also contributed a little bit, but he only contributed some funds, so he still doesn’t know where Gu Tongjing is and where Zhang Dafo is doing.
What.
This place is not a secret within Jiumen, or even the entire dark world. After all, Lord Zhang Dafo intends to keep it secret when doing things. But the strange thing is that except for a name, no information about Gutongjing has been spread.
However, this is a very contradictory place.
In fact, Wu Laogou had also been curious about this in the early years. After all, people in their profession can lack everything, but the only thing that is indispensable is the strong curiosity.
But later, when the investigation yielded no results, he gradually let it go. After all, he only provided some funds.
"You said there is a connection between this place and Gu Tongjing? What is the connection?" Wu Laogou was not surprised for too long, he quickly recovered and continued to ask.
"It's those black-haired snakes!" Chen Ziyan replied firmly.
"Those black-haired snakes? How could this happen?" It was Li Wu who asked this time. Because it was about the topic of Zhang Dafo Lord, he didn't want to get involved before, but now he couldn't help it after hearing the black-haired snakes. p>
"I didn't arrive at first, but after Fifth Master's reminder just now, I suddenly discovered that a snake I'd heard before looked very similar to a black-haired snake, and that's when I thought of this." Chen Ziyan said calmly.
"It's very similar? Chen Xiaoyou, please explain in detail." Wu Laogou stopped Li Wu who wanted to say something more and asked Chen Ziyan.
Chen Ziyan said simply: "I have seen it from the letters left by my elders. It is said that there was a strange snake that originated somewhere on the Silk Road in ancient times. This snake's body is covered with metallic scales, and its back is hard.
It has black hair on its temples, but this snake is extremely venomous, so it is difficult to catch."
Hearing this, the people next to him nodded secretly. This is indeed very similar to the black-haired snake. It is not an exaggeration to say that it is exactly the same.
"Because this memory is so long ago, and I had a preconceived notion that the black-haired snake was an edible snake, I couldn't connect the two."
Wu Laogou asked: "But what does this have to do with Gu Tongjing?"
"Because in the depths of ancient Tongjing, there is also a snake...snake cave full of black-haired snakes." Chen Ziyan said.
"Similar to the snake cave..." Wu Laogou fell into thinking the moment he got the answer.
There were some things that he didn't know before. On the one hand, it was because he was not too involved, and on the other hand, there was a lack of corresponding information.
But now based on the information given by Chen Ziyan, he was immediately sure of one thing, that is, there must be some kind of connection between the Sheguo ruins deep in the Qinling Mountains and the ancient Tongjing in the desert.
He even speculated that it was probably because of that trip to the Qinling Mountains that Zhang Dafoye took people to Gutongjing.
But soon Wu Laogou felt that something was wrong, because although he did not participate in the entire operation in Qinling, he knew all the specific information, and even the deepest secrets hidden there. These Zhang Dafo Lords were not involved.
I didn't hide anything from them, otherwise Jie Jiu wouldn't have run there when he was desperate this time. Didn't he just know that the thing was there?
After thinking for a while with no result, Brother Wu looked at Chen Ziyan again and asked: "Little friend Chen, I wonder what else you know about Gu Tongjing?"
He didn't ask about things in the Qinling Mountains, because as a person involved, he knew what happened there. What he lacked now was information about Gu Tongjing.
Chen Ziyan had been observing Wu Laogou, and shook his head slightly when he saw this: "I only know that the place is very mysterious, and ordinary people can't reach it in their lifetime. As for other things, I don't know, after all, I haven't personally
