Chapter 341 Heavenly Gate and Embedded Path

It is not difficult to confirm this point. Hu Bayi just observed the connection between Shiliang and Tandi for a while, and he got the answer he wanted.

He let go of the edge of the stone beam in his hand, and at the same time he swam back towards Chen Ziyan and the others, he also made an 'OK' gesture.

Apparently, things were just like what Chen Ziyan said, the stone beam was not an accidental waste, but a building support with its own function.

Seeing this, Chen Ziyan gestured to the others beside him, and then took the initiative to swim towards the gap behind.

Since it is confirmed that there is a building under the stone beam, there is nothing to say. Let's go back to the processing factory to move the bronze statue and prepare.

Because it was a matter that had already been discussed, the others also understood what he meant and obediently followed behind.

They also want to proceed to the next step as soon as possible. After all, the capacity of the oxygen cylinders they carry is limited, which cannot support their activities in the water all the time.

After working together to move several bronze statues to the entrance of the cave, Chen Ziyan and others stepped on the water and surfaced. He reminded the others:
"Although there is a solid bronze statue, but you can't relax later, you must pay attention to the surrounding situation."

Shirley Yang nodded: "The nature of water is the most impermanent, and things under the water are even more difficult to figure out. If you can't do something, you must not force it. If it doesn't work, you can go back first. Let's make a long-term plan when the time comes."

Although she agrees with Chen Ziyan's method, she is not very optimistic about whether the process will be smooth. After all, what she is about to enter is a water eye, or a water eye that can continuously swallow the water.

Even though Shirley Yang doesn't know as much as Chen Ziyan, and doesn't know about the abyss, she still knows what such a water eye is.

To put it bluntly, if they accidentally fell in, they probably would have no hope of coming out again in this lifetime.

Although Hu Bayi didn't make it so obvious, he said earnestly:

"As the saying goes, if you keep the green hills, you don't have to worry about running out of firewood. Although our time is tight, it's not at the point of urgency. As long as we can leave the Xuan Palace before the rainstorm pours down."

When he just went out to inspect the stone beams, he took the time to look outside. Judging from the continuous ripples on the water surface, it has started to rain outside now. Although it has not yet reached the level of heavy rain, at least there must be moderate rain up.

Therefore, Hu Bayi predicted that by tomorrow morning, the mountain torrents accumulated in the entire area would fill the deep valley like a cylinder, and if they hadn't left by then, they would be trapped in the underground palace.

And this is still a relatively ideal situation. If the Xuan Palace has any special arrangements to allow the water accumulated outside to pour in in advance, the outcome will be obvious.

Chen Ziyan didn't say anything when he heard the words, but nodded slightly to express his understanding, and then said: "There is not much time, let's do our best."

After saying that, he took the lead in pushing a bronze statue out of the processing plant.

The others followed closely behind. Instead of diving directly into the water eye, they fixed one end of the climbing rope to the wreckage of the heavy bomber first.

In order to get out of it smoothly, the bronze statue alone is not enough, there must be a suitable fixing bolt, and in this deep pool, there is nothing more suitable than this 'sky fortress'.

The wreckage of the heavy bomber not only has a very high weight, but also has a huge body, which is far beyond the scope of the 'water eye'.

After completing these preliminary tasks, Chen Ziyan pushed the bronze statues one by one into the black vortex where even the light could be confused.

The peripheral area of ​​the water eye is okay, but as they go deeper, they feel the suction of the undercurrent getting stronger and stronger. If it weren't for the bronze statues to maintain their bodies, they probably couldn't control their bodies long ago.

After feeling that it was almost deep, Chen Ziyan took out two cold fireworks and hit the bronze statue in front of him, immediately igniting a cold but inextinguishable spark.

He did not rush to throw these two cold fireworks, but paused in his hand for a few seconds before letting go. As he let go of his fingers, the two cold light clusters were immediately carried deeper into the vortex by the undercurrent.

Although this light cannot allow them to see the whole picture of the vortex below, they can still see some surrounding conditions during the fall.

Staring at Chen Ziyan below with all his attention, with the help of the light from the cold smoke and fire, he managed to find the entrance to the tomb passage hidden on the side of the whirlpool.

In fact, it is said to be hidden on the side of the vortex, but in fact it is very close to the deepest part of the water eye. If there are not several stones as signs, then unless you go directly into it, you will not be able to find it at all.

After seeing the entrance, Chen Ziyan immediately gestured to the others. In order to be able to cope with the current situation where he could not speak, everyone had learned some 'seal' sign language specially used by the US Navy from Shirley Yang, at least the simple ones. Communication is out of the question.

Then he asked Hu Bayi to go to other people. This guy still had Wang Kaixuan tied to him, and the next action was not suitable for him.

After Hu Bayi left his side with the help of the interconnected climbing ropes, Chen Ziyan held onto the bronze statue tightly with one hand, and slowly let go of the safety lock on his body with the other.

One centimeter...two centimeters...

Even though the victory was right in front of him, he was not in the slightest eagerness, but planned and acted methodically and secretly.

With the suction of the undercurrent, Chen Ziyan didn't need to dive by himself at all. He only needed to release the length of the climbing rope a little bit, and he would naturally be able to go exactly where he wanted.

The only thing that needs to be vigilant is not to let yourself be taken away by the water flow that rotates more and more distances, otherwise you will be swept away in an instant.

But fortunately Chen Ziyan was well prepared, and he also possessed excellent physical fitness and balance, so after a period of time, he arrived at the position he expected without any disturbance.

At this time, in front of him was the entrance of the cave he saw just now, but it was said to be a cave entrance, but what actually appeared in front of Chen Ziyan was a very square bluestone tomb passage.

What he landed on was one of the stone strips. These bluestones were arranged in a contracted reverse slope, and it seemed that they used some peculiar way to counteract or resist the influence of the position from the water eye.

However, Chen Ziyan didn't mean to delve into it at all. After he successfully stood firm, he immediately lit a cold firework again, using it as a signal to tell the rest of the people waiting above that everything was going well on his side, and let them also go in an orderly manner. whereabouts.

It didn't take long for Hu Bayi and the others to follow suit and came to Chen Ziyan's side. Because it was too close to the water eye, no one dared to neglect them. When they were all there, they entered the tomb passage and dared not stop until they swam more than [-] meters away. Next rest.

Although it was a great risk just now, and a slight mistake would lead to a big mistake, but seeing the tomb passage where they are now, everyone feels that this adventure is not a loss.

From the system and materials of this tomb passage, it is clear that this is probably the rightful owner.

After untiing the climbing ropes tied to their bodies, the group of people continued to walk towards the depths of the tomb passage. After continuing to swim for tens of meters, a stone slope appeared in front of them, and the space they were in was several times wider than the tomb passage.

After going up the stone slope, they also escaped from the pond water that filled the entire tomb passage. As soon as everyone got out of the water, they immediately saw a blue-gray stone gate standing at the end of the stone slope of the tomb passage under their feet.

"It's finally here!" Hu Bayi said in surprise as he wiped the water off his mask.

They have gone through many obstacles along the way, and finally they have hope.

Chen Ziyan nodded lightly: "After all the hardships, there must be some sweetness, otherwise, who would take risks."

Leaving aside other things, if he failed to gain again and again, he might not be willing to engage in this kind of industry.

At this moment, Shirley Yang looked back at the tomb passage covered by the pool of water behind her eyes, and asked curiously: "It stands to reason that the tomb door should be set at the place where we came in, why did it appear here? This is somewhat different from the known specifications. It's different."

Chen Ziyan replied with a smile, "This may not be the gate of the tomb in front of us, maybe Shuiyan is the real gate of the tomb."

Xue Liyang thought for a while, then nodded and said, "That's right, this water eye is not only hidden, but also far safer than ordinary tomb doors."

With her "deep" experience in moving mountains, she knows very well that even for ordinary tomb robbers, the tomb door is not too many obstacles that are difficult to overcome, so whether there is a door is more meaningful.

Even if there was a tomb gate, it would just take more effort and time.

"According to the records in the ancient books, this should be a gate of heaven in front of us. Look at the highest copper gate tower above, surrounded by clouds and flying birds, symbolizing that it is high above the sky. It can only be found in the tombs of Taoists." Chen Ziyan pointed to the top of the stone gate not far away.

Hu Bayi smiled when he heard the words: "Whatever Tianmen is, this is a ready-made robbery hole for us."

Without this heavenly gate, it would take some effort for them to enter this thousand-jin stone gate.

But this saves trouble, you must know that the general Tianmen can be opened and closed freely, isn't this an undefended entrance.

"That's right, don't worry about how King Xian arranges it, but now it's clearly taking advantage of us." Chen Ziyan naturally understood what he was thinking, and also agreed with a smile.

Then several people threw the Flying Tiger Claw up, hung it on the protrusion of Tiantian Gate, and climbed up one by one along the rope connecting the Flying Tiger Claw.

The rest of the people didn't bother, only Wang Kaixuan, who was still in a daze, was a bit difficult to deal with. He had to wait for everyone to go up and then he was tied to the rope and pulled up.

After reaching the stone platform above, Chen Ziyan stretched out his hand and pushed the heavenly gate, but unexpectedly, the gate that should have been able to move freely was locked from the inside at this moment.

But this is not a difficult problem, it is much easier than prying down the heavy stone door below.

Because the mechanism behind this kind of portal has no skills at all, Xueli Yang was not used to do it, but Chen Ziyan himself did it.

After all, now that Wushuang Ghost is gone, there is really no one in the team who is stronger than him.

Chen Ziyan took the special crowbar handed over by Hu Bayi. This is a special tool named "Black Zhezi" by Captain Mojin. It can be stretched and contracted. The tomb gate can also be used together with the Yin-exploring claw, which can be regarded as a housekeeping tool for touching gold.

After measuring twice with the black book, Chen Ziyan found the position to attack. He first pried a few times at a constant speed to widen the gap, and then suddenly increased the force.

As Chen Ziyan increased his weight, he only heard a 'click', and he successfully pried a corner of the bronze door in front of him.

And just after the 'loophole' appeared in this corner, a cold air flowed out of it immediately.

Sensing the appearance of this air current, Chen Ziyan and the others quickly dodged to the side.

They knew that this was because the ancient tomb was absolutely sealed, and the yin qi accumulated over the years was extremely harmful to the human body. If they were not all wearing tight protective clothing, they would have been blown by the cold wind, and half of their bodies would be completely cold.

Da Jinya's father, Lao Jintou, was attacked by the evil wind in the ancient tomb. Not only did his legs freeze to death, but his lungs also turned into broken bellows, leaving behind a disease that could never be cured.

After waiting like this for more than ten minutes, Chen Zi stretched out his hand for a rough sense, and then said: "It is hopeless to dissipate the yin energy in this tomb for a while, but we don't have time to wait, so for the sake of safety, Everyone must not take off the mask after entering."

If Hu Bayi's previous speculation is correct, then the terrain of this mysterious palace will be one of the two structures of 'well' or 'back', and such a structure can easily form airtight air, so that the silted cloud inside The air is getting heavier.

Naturally, the best way at this time is to wait quietly for a few days, as in Savage Ditch, to completely change the air in the tomb.

But just like what Chen Ziyan said, they are running out of time now, and there is no room to wait for a change of air. Fortunately, they are all wearing protective clothing with a matching filter system, which can barely solve this problem.

After everyone nodded to show that they understood, Chen Ziyan's hand holding Hei Zhezi increased his strength again, and with a toothache-squeaking sound of metal rubbing, the copper door blocking the way was completely removed. down.

Everyone entered through the hole without the bronze door, and came to the inside of the thousand-jin stone door.

After landing, I found that the space behind is actually not that big. I verified that there were several rows of bronze chariots, people, and horses on both sides of the inlay road leading to the tomb. Just by looking at it, I could tell that the quality of these bronze statues Far better than they had seen before, the difference between the defective product and the genuine product was extremely clear.

Shirley Yang looked at the weapons in the hands of those bronze men, and said to the others: "These two weapons are called 'Empty Slot Yue' and 'Convex Edge Axe' respectively, and they are unique weapons of the ancient Dian Kingdom. At least one tomb from the ancient Dian kingdom."

Chen Ziyan followed her gaze, but his attention did not stay too much on these weapons, but on the environment ahead.

He found that the terrain in front of him was very narrow, and if he wanted to pass, he had to walk among these bronze statues, but those raised weapons shone coldly, obviously not for decoration, which meant they would bring danger.
