Chapter 539 Purple Light Bead

Now that he was ready, Chen Ran didn't talk nonsense, let go of Yan Ruyu's hand and stepped to the edge of the pool, then turned around and stretched out his hand to help Xiaoyu, after she stood still, I just squatted down and stretched out a leg and went down into the water tentatively.

The water in the pool is not only not cold, but rather warm, which is strange. After all, the water in this kind of underground river is generally relatively shady.

Chen Ran's actions naturally made Yan Ruyu guess that Chen Ran said that the way to take her out was in the pool. Seeing this scene, she actually wanted to remind Chen Ran that she practiced martial arts with her grandfather since she was a child. In terms of diving skills, she is definitely not inferior to those players in the national team, and this pool is neither too big nor too deep. In the past few days, she has almost searched for this pool, but she couldn't find it. way out.

But she saw that Chen Ran was so confident, and she knew that Chen Ran had some strange abilities, so she didn't remind Chen Ran in the end.

Chen Ran didn't really go down into the water, but just stretched his feet into the water and tried to find a place to step on. After all, the pool is not a artificially cut pool, so there is naturally a place to stay.

After finding a place to stay, Chen Ran stepped on this place and stood there, and then stretched out his hand to Yan Ruyu who was standing on it.

Without the slightest hesitation, Yan Ruyu grabbed Chen Ran's hand and went down into the water to stand with Chen Ran just like Chen Ran did.

After Yan Ruyu stood firm, Chen Ran first took off the backpack and handed it to her for her to hold, then he held a raised place on the edge of the pool with one hand and 'touched' the water with the other hand, only Only one head and one arm were 'exposed' above the water surface, and the hand that 'touched' the water went down along the stone wall of the pool, about to 'touch' down. After reaching a depth of almost one meter, I 'touched' a slightly sunken pothole the size of a fist.

Chen Ran put his hand into the fist-sized pit and 'touched' a rusty, ugly and rough copper ring.

That's right, a brass ring.

The strange place that Chen Ran discovered was this copper ring. At that time, he probed out his energy aperture to detect how deep the water in the pool was, and when he detected this place, he happened to find this copper ring.

Chen Ran was naturally surprised to find a copper ring in such an environment.

Not to mention that the copper ring is very rough and rusty, it is basically not much different from the surrounding stone walls. To be honest, if you don’t pay attention, you really can’t find it. I'm afraid you won't be able to see that this is a copper ring. Chen Ran used the energy aperture to detect it. Since this position corresponds to the entrance of the cave, Chen Ran also launched the water from this place when detecting. When detecting, it is natural to detect along the stone wall of the water pool, so as to check the environment around the water pool by the way, but when Chen Ran detected this place with the energy aperture, he could naturally detect that it was a copper ring.

Chen Ran turned sideways, stretched out his hand to grab the copper ring and pulled it a few times. At first he didn't dare to pull it too hard for fear of breaking it, but after a few pulls without any response, he used a little strength, but no matter what he No matter how he pulled it, there was no response, but when he was pulling it hard, he suddenly pressed it in unintentionally, but suddenly there was a clicking sound.

Chen Ran suddenly realized that the copper ring was not pulled, but pressed in.

And when he was thinking like this, there was obviously a reaction from below, and the reaction was not small, just hearing a bang, it was like the sound of an excavator pushing down a building, accompanied by a rumbling sound , the water in the pool also dropped at a speed visible to the naked eye. At the beginning, the water surface was on Chen Ran's waist, but in the blink of an eye, the water surface reached Chen Ran's feet, and a semi-arc hole was even 'exposed'.

Chen Ran raised his head and glanced at Xiaoyu. Xiaoyu looked at the hole under his feet and was obviously stunned. Chen Ran smiled and threw himself into the hole without saying a word.

After rushing into the entrance of the cave, he grabbed the stone door at the entrance of the cave, turned his body sideways, exposed his head, and stretched out his hand towards Xiaoyu. Although Xiaoyu was startled, but his reaction was not slow, when he saw Chen Ran's hand stretched out, he pulled He stayed and then jumped into the water.

Chen Ran pulled Xiaoyu into her arms with a strong pull, and when Chen Ran pulled her into her arms, she turned her head and saw that there was indeed a passage in the cave. Xiaoyu was immediately surprised. It can be seen from his expression.

In fact, Yan Ruyu at this time was obviously more than just surprised. She really couldn't understand why Chen Ran was in a coma and didn't even come out of the cave after waking up. How could he find a way out all at once?

Chen Ran hadn't planned to hide it from her, so naturally he wasn't afraid of her finding out.

Although Chen Ran has a sense of achievement to show Yan Ruyu's moving expression, the scene in front of him is really not the time to talk. After all, they are still in the water, and there is still a big echo in the cave. There was a buzzing sound after coughing.

Chen Ran didn't close the hole from the inside, because he didn't know if this passage was the real exit. There were only a dozen or so energy apertures, and they had to be used at the most critical time. Therefore, he didn't waste the energy apertures. To detect the channel, in fact, the detection is not very useful, because the channel is very deep.

Chen Ran took the backpack from Yan Ruyu's hand, put it on his back, and dragged Xiaoyu to swim into the cave. Since the terrain in the passage is a bit like a spiral staircase, of course, it is said that the stairs are passed, to be precise. To put it bluntly, it should be a robbery hole with a slope of [-] degrees from bottom to top.

This naturally made Chen Ran and Yan Ruyu guess in their hearts. They are now in the treasure of Prince Qi's Mansion, and this robbery cave also made them wonder if a tomb robber discovered this place?

But they are just thinking about it. For them at this time, it is obvious that the treasure is only secondary. The important thing is to go out first, and this is the only way out now. Going to give it a try too.

After coming back from the water, the two fumbled in the dark to wring out their soaked clothes. Chen Ran was now wearing the clothes he wore when he came out of the house, and it was Yan Ruyu who put them on for him. Yes, after all, his military uniform was stained with blood, and the wound on his chest was already scarred.

And Yan Ruyu was wearing camouflage, neither Chen Ran nor Yan Ruyu was considered a timid person. Therefore, although the cave was dark and gloomy, the two of them were also highly skilled and daring. , After tidying up, they held hands and went to the depths of the robbery cave.

The robbery cave is neither wide nor high, and you have to bend over to walk, and the terrain of the cave becomes steeper as you go up.

"Chen Ran, there seems to be light ahead!"

Chen Ran dragged Xiaoyu and walked up for about seven or eight minutes, but Yan Ruyu suddenly noticed a flash of light in the corner of his eyes, and quickly called to remind Chen Ran.

"Well, I saw it too."

When Xiaoyu saw it, Chen Ran who was walking in front also saw it, and he even saw it earlier than Xiaoyu.

Seeing the light in front, Chen Ran and Yan Ruyu should have been pleasantly surprised, but they were not surprised. On the contrary, they even stopped and looked at each other.

This is because the light in front is a bit weird!

Because it is not pure white light, not even yellowish light, but a bit purple light!

In such a cave, the appearance of purple light is really weird.

However, Chen Ran and Yan Ruyu are brave and brave after all, and since they have come here, is it possible that they turned around and went back because they saw a purple light?

After looking at each other, they walked forward again, but their movements became unusually cautious, even tentatively walking forward bit by bit, and as they approached, the purple color The 'color' is also brighter, and the entire channel against it has turned into purple 'color', and this purple light is not always on, but a flashing purple light.

Chen Ran and Yan Ruyu didn't have any fear in their hearts. On the contrary, they were more curious about what was going on ahead, and how could there be such a flash?

Chen Ran released a circle of energy and went around a bend to take a look, but found that after going around this bend, the purple light became brighter, and the entire passageway illuminated was bright, of course, it was still that purple color 'It's bright, but the energy aperture has not reached the end.

Although Chen Ran was curious, he didn't know what danger was ahead. According to his plan, he would let Yan Ruyu stay here and turn around to take a look. But as soon as he had this thought, Yan Ruyu noticed it, and immediately Walked side by side with him and hugged his arm.

Chen Ran glanced at her angrily, then pulled her forward.

When the two of them supported the stone wall and turned around the bend and appeared on the other side, the scene in front of them made them stunned!

This passage came to an end more than 20 meters in front of them. At the end was an empty stone cave about four or five square meters in size, and there seemed to be no roads on all sides.

And the thing that was shining purple turned out to be a bead that fell on the ground!

Night Pearl?

Chen Ran was stunned for a moment, and such a thought flashed through his mind, and then he took Xiaoyu's hand and walked over together.

When I got to the cave, I found that there was not only one shining purple bead in the cave, but also a dead body on the ground, leaning against the stone wall, apparently sitting dead.

Chen Ran and Yan Ruyu's first reaction when they saw the dead man's skeleton was, could it be that someone had been here before them?

Both Chen Ran and Yan Ruyu took a good look at the skeleton. The white skeleton was leaning against the stone wall, showing a sitting posture. The two legs were half stretched in front of the face, but the right leg was intact, and there was a small section of the left leg in the middle. It was broken into pieces, and there was still a bullet stuck in the gap between the bones in this place.

Obviously, the man was shot in the left leg by a gun before he died!

Besides, this purple bead, the bead did not fall on the ground, but got stuck on the jaw of the dead man's skeleton. It seems that the bead was placed on the man's body when he was dead, and then rolled It landed on his jaw just where it stuck.

In addition to the shining purple beads, there are also the boots that this person is wearing, and even several rusty throwing knives.

Both Chen Ran and Yan Ruyu obviously focused on the beads.

"Is this the night pearl?"

Although Chen Ran has never seen a real luminous pearl, he has heard of it a lot, but he has never heard of such a luminous pearl with purple light, and it still flashes, although the frequency of flashing is not high.

Of course, even if it is artificial.

Yan Ruyu wrinkled her forehead and shook her head with Chen Ran, "I'm not sure, I've seen white ones, yellow ones, green ones, and purple ones. It’s the first time I’ve seen it, and none of the ones I’ve seen before can shine…”

What Yan Ruyu said was an understatement, but Chen Ran was dumbfounded when he heard it. This is the gap!The ones Yan Ruyu said she saw were natural night pearls, not artificial ones.

"Pearl of the night" can be regarded as a cultural history with a long history and a long history in our country. There are many records of pearls of night in historical documents, from the "Jade of Stone and Phosphorus", "Jade of Luminous Light" and "Moon Pearl" in ancient times to the pearl of the night in the mouth of the Empress Dowager Cixi. , as everyone knows, the ancients regarded the luminous pearl as a "divine object" and "treasure", owned by emperors, and regarded as a symbol of power and a symbol of wealth.

After all, this thing is still a legendary thing for most ordinary people. The ordinary people here even include Chen Ran. At least until now, Chen Ran has never seen the Ye Mingzhu once.

And when Comrade Xiaoyu saw this thing, it sounded like it was commonplace.

If he saw this almost legendary thing in other places, Chen Ran might still be interested, but now he is not very interested, because he found that after they arrived at this empty cave, they would not go any further. The road is gone, that is to say, it is a dead end, which made him focus on how to find a way out.

Yan Ruyu is quite interested in this bead, but the reason why she is interested is that only after seeing the real Ye Mingzhu can she see the magic of this bead in front of her. In fact, the legendary Ye Mingzhu is really nothing magical. It just emits light, which is not as good as the exquisite light bulbs made today.

Of course, in ancient times, it was another matter, but the bead in front of me was different, at least the flickering was very strange, this bead must have been kept here for many years , but still have such an effect.

After talking to Chen Ran, she tore off the bag inside her 'camouflage' uniform, and then took the torn cloth strip to take out the magical bead in front of her. , but she was interrupted suddenly by Chen Ran before she touched the beads: "Wait a minute."

Hearing Chen Ran's cry, Yan Ruyu turned her head to look at Chen Ran, not knowing what Chen Ran was doing to stop her.

There was no specific reason why Chen Ran called her to stop, it was just because he suddenly discovered a strange place when he was looking for a way out around the cave.

That is, the bones of this corpse are too bright, like suet jade, especially against the backdrop of the purple light beads, the bones are also a little purple, which makes it even more weird .

Just now, because the whole passageway turned purple when he didn't reach the empty stone cave, but after he arrived, he looked at the bones and didn't see it for a while, but now he was looking for a way out. This feeling suddenly came out when the surrounding stone walls were compared.

Seeing that Yan Ruyu was going to get the purple bead, Chen Ran stopped Yan Ruyu first for safety reasons, and after he stopped, he released an energy aperture to probe over.

In the past, when Chen Ran released the energy apertures, he used them in series, but now there are only ten of them, so he can only save one by one.

Chen Ran scanned the skeleton first, and he wanted to see if there was anything wrong with the bones of the corpse. If there was something wrong with the skeleton of the corpse, then there would naturally be something wrong with the purple bead.

The first scan was the ribs of the corpse. Although it was detected that the skeleton of the corpse had obviously changed, and it seemed to have become delicate and crisp, but there was no other discovery.

However, when Chen Ran was probing the skull, a problem suddenly appeared!
