Chapter 620: The Pool in the Secret Passage
Even though they were mentally prepared, when the cave entrance really appeared, everyone present couldn't help but be surprised.

However, unlike others, Chen Ziyan was not surprised by the hole under the stone slab. What really surprised him was that this was not the hole he expected to be made by robbers.

He remembered very clearly that in the original plot, after Wu Xie and others lifted the stone pressing down the coffin, what appeared before them was a tomb robber's hole.

But what is in front of him at this moment is the entrance of a tunnel with regular edges. From the stone steps extending all the way to the depths, it can be seen that this is definitely not a tunnel dug by robbers, but a secret passage deliberately built by the tomb owner.

But after thinking about it carefully, Chen Ziyan felt that this was reasonable. After all, this was the passage leading to the corresponding tomb chamber. The probability of stumbling upon it by accident was too low. It would be strange if a robbery hole really appeared.

As for why there was a tomb robbery hole in the original plot, Chen Ziyan felt that it should be the work of Wu Sanxing. It was not easy to build such a secret passage in the tomb out of thin air, but if the stone steps were removed, it would not be difficult to disguise it as a tomb robbery hole.

“Could this be the way to the main tomb chamber?”

"It's possible. If it's true as Chen Ziyan said, this tomb has two floors, and it makes sense that the main tomb chamber is at the bottom."

The discussion of the guys next to him interrupted Chen Ziyan's chaotic thoughts, and he whispered:

"Where this secret passage leads to, we will never get the answer just by guessing here, let's go down and take a look first."

After saying that, he turned over and entered the secret passage, going down the inclined stairs.

Seeing this, the others had nothing to say and followed suit.

Not long after walking along the stone steps, a pool of water appeared in front of them.

Chen Ziyan looked around with the searchlight, and after making sure that there was no other way, he turned his attention back to the pool in front of him.

However, the pool in front of him was the same as the one he had encountered before. It looked clear on the surface, but it was actually dark and deep inside, and the searchlight's beam could not penetrate at all.

After looking for a while, Chen Ziyan said, "Brothers, let's go down and take a look."

Although he knew that by entering the pool, he could go to the corresponding other tomb chamber, he could not directly give the answer, so the best way was to send someone to explore the way.

Anyway, the guys he brought with him were for this purpose, so there was no need to wait any longer.

What Chen Ziyan didn't expect was that the three guys became silent as soon as they went into the water. After waiting for a few minutes and seeing no one coming up, he guessed that these guys might have run into the corresponding tomb chamber without realizing it.

However, we cannot rule out the possibility that there are real dangers in the pool. After all, the entire underwater tomb is still in its original state, and who knows what strange and bizarre things are hidden in it.

"Try pulling the rope." Chen Ziyan said.

To prevent accidents, these guys tied safety ropes around their bodies before going into the water.

"Master Chen, we can't pull it. It seems like the other end is stuck by something." However, after the guys tried, they didn't get any feedback.

its stuck?
After getting this answer, Chen Ziyan frowned slightly. This was a bit beyond his expectations. Could there really be something in the water?

After thinking about it, he looked at the flower fox beside him.

"Hua Hu, go down and take a look."

The reason why he did not continue to use his men to explore the way was that he directly sent out his own puppet armor.

Firstly, the situation in the water was unclear, and the others would definitely not want to go down. If he forced them to do something, he would definitely lose the support of the people. Chen Ziyan could certainly bear this consequence, but now was not the right time. Secondly, he trusted his own puppet armor more. Even if there was a problem in the water, he felt that with the ability of the flower fox, even if it could not be solved immediately, he could still come back smoothly.

Most importantly, he needed to know what was going on down there, and Huahu could keep him up to date through the special connection between them.

The rest of the guys particularly agreed with Chen Ziyan's decision. After all, there was no other way to go. If they wanted to find out the situation in the pool, someone had to go down.

If Chen Ziyan doesn't send Huahu, then they will have to be the guinea pigs. Rather than taking risks themselves, they would rather give up this opportunity.

As the flower fox went into the water, the pool became quiet again, and everyone stared at the calm water in front of them.

Unlike others who could only wait for the results, Chen Ziyan seemed to be staring at the water, but his mind had already been focused on connecting with Huahu.

Although Huahu's intelligence was not enough to describe the situation to him in detail, it was still no problem to convey some details.

So Chen Ziyan can barely be considered to be monitoring the situation on Huahu's side in real time.

What he found difficult to understand was why Huahu would pass the word "rotation" to him?

He was standing by the pool, less than one meter away from where the fox entered the water. If there were any whirlpools or other changes in the water, he should be able to spot it at the first moment.

However, when he received the message passed back by the flower fox, Chen Ziyan no longer cared about this problem, because the flower fox had surfaced at this moment, but it did not return to the place where it entered the water, but appeared in the tomb they had visited before.

The three people who had gone into the water to explore the way were now in the tomb as Chen Ziyan had guessed, but their condition was not very good.

As for exactly how it was bad, Huahu couldn't describe it in more detail.

But this was enough for Chen Ziyan, and he immediately informed Hua Hu that he could shake the rope tied to him.

As soon as Chen Ziyan gave the order, the guy who was responsible for guarding the safety rope spoke up.

"Master Chen, the rope is shaking."

Chen Ziyan looked down at the rope and found that it was shaking regularly, so he said, "There should be something else going on down there, let's go in and take a look."

He said this very suddenly, and the guys around him didn't notice it for a while. After a while, one of them asked tentatively:

"Master Chen, should we reconsider this?"

How come there is suddenly a mystery?

There were a few people who seemed to understand something and took a deep look at the rope that was still shaking.

They speculated that the frequency of the rope's shaking might be hiding some kind of secret code, otherwise Chen Ziyan would not have made such a arbitrary decision.

They got to know each other more or less along the way. They knew very well that Chen Ziyan's style of doing things was not reckless. Although he could not be said to act after planning, he definitely had reasons for his actions.

Chen Ziyan didn't know that his actions aroused other people's imagination. In fact, he didn't think so much about it. He just wanted to move on to the next step.

Because he knew that no matter how much he explained, he couldn't explain the reason for making this decision, so it was better to say nothing and let others imagine it on their own.
