Chapter 815 Life and Death
Li Canghai observed the two stone dragons carefully, and he found that the eyes of the two stone dragons were actually made of precious stones.

"Gem? Gem?" Li Canghai murmured twice, then suddenly raised his head to look at the dragon jewel stone floating above his head, and instantly understood.

These gems are very similar to the gems in Zhang Han's tomb.

Thinking of the experience in Zhang Han's tomb, Li Canghai figured out the key.

"It turns out that these gems are the key to activating the mechanism!"

Thinking of this, Li Canghai immediately flew up to one of the dragon's heads, roared, and pried out the gem from the stone dragon's eyes with his sharp sword.

After the gem was pried out, the stone dragon stopped instantly.

"Get out the gem from that stone dragon's eye!" Li Canghai shouted.

Seeing this, Li Yu immediately flew up and pried out the gemstone from Shi Long's eyes in two or three strokes.

Sure enough, that stone dragon also stopped moving instantly.

Just when the two breathed a sigh of relief, the servants outside the palace rushed in again.

"Sir, these servants don't use gemstones as eyes, do you still have a way to deal with them?" Li Yu asked.

Li Canghai looked up at the dragon ball, frowned and said, "I have a guess. The reason why these soldiers and stone dragons are able to move is because of these gems. There should be gem residues in the body of the soldiers. As long as they touch the mechanism , it will activate the soldiers and stone dragons. And the key to everything should be this dragon ball suspended in mid-air!"

"This is easy, wait for me to destroy the dragon ball!" Before Li Canghai finished speaking, Li Yu stepped on the dragon's head, leaped into the air, and swung his sword to chop off the dragon ball.

After the sword light passed, the Dragon Ball burst apart.

The servants outside the hall also stopped one after another, and the densely packed servants blocked the door of the hall.

Li Yu had just landed on the ground, and before he could stand on his feet, the whole hall suddenly shook violently.

Immediately afterwards, the hall suddenly collapsed.

Huge smoke and dust filled the entire hall in an instant, making it difficult to open your eyes.

In the confusion, Li Canghai suddenly heard Li Yu scream.

Hearing this, Li Canghai hurriedly waved his sleeves vigorously to disperse the smoke and dust around him, and at the same time, he moved towards the place where Li Yu made the sound.

After a while, he touched Li Yu's side, but what he saw made him frown.

After Li Yu slashed the dragon ball, the coiled dragon made of pure gold that was hanging on it suddenly fell down, which happened to trip Li Yu.

Immediately afterwards, the entire hall collapsed suddenly, and a huge stone beam suddenly fell down.

Li Yu was caught off guard, and was immediately broken by the stone beam.

The collapse continued, as if a major earthquake had occurred, and the entire mausoleum began to sink.

Without any hesitation, Li Canghai tried his best to push the stone beam away.

But the stone beam weighed more than a thousand catties, no matter how hard he tried, it would be difficult to shake it.

"Ayu, hold on, I will definitely rescue you!" Li Canghai pushed the stone beam desperately, gritted his teeth.

Li Yu was lying under the stone beam covered in blood, he was so angry that he coughed a few mouthfuls of blood, and said with difficulty: "First... sir, no... don't waste your energy....you go!"

"Fart! How could I abandon my brother and run for my life alone?" Li Canghai roared madly with his eyes red.

Two lines of tears fell from the corners of Li Yu's eyes, and he murmured: "Mr. You's words... My death is worth it. Sir, I don't regret my death, you must get out alive... I am tired, and I don't want to continue like this Go down. 'Nilin Xuanwu'... I will leave it to you."

As he spoke, Li Yu tremblingly took out a bloody token and handed it to Li Canghai.

"The 'Xuanwu Token' is the token of Lin Lords of the past... Sir, over the years, we have done many wrong things for our own selfishness... I hope that sir can bring the 'Nilin Xuanwu' back to the right path... …to do a little bit for the common people of the world…”

Li Canghai held Li Yu's bloody hand, as if a boulder was blocked in his chest.

He could see that Li Yu had no chance of surviving.

But let him give up Li Yu like this, he can't do it no matter what.

Li Canghai frowned, took the long sword and said: "The duel between you and me has not yet been decided, I don't allow you to die here! Ayu, hold on!"

As he spoke, Li Canghai swung his sword to cut off his legs.

Li Canghai knew that there was no hope for Li Yu's survival, but he still took chances, thinking that cutting off his broken leg might save his life.

Just when Li Canghai was about to swing his sword, Li Yu suddenly waved his hand and grabbed Li Canghai's wrist, then with all his strength, he slapped Li Canghai's shoulder.

Li Canghai only felt his breath stagnate, and then his body involuntarily took a few steps back.

In the next moment, a huge boulder suddenly fell from the roof and hit the place where Li Canghai was originally.

"Ayu!!!"

Li Canghai's eyes were about to split, and he let out a desolate cry.

At the critical moment, it was Li Yu who saved him.

The entire mausoleum was shaken, countless stones fell down one after another, and the main hall gradually showed a tendency to sink.

Li Canghai suddenly remembered what Yan Nanfei said before, Qin Shihuang's Mausoleum would only be open for six hours, and after that, the entire underground palace would sink.

What's more, they destroyed the dragon ball used to control the organs of the imperial mausoleum. If they delay any longer, they will have only one end, which is to stay for the first emperor to be buried with him.

The Hall of Eternal Life, where the coffin of the First Emperor could be stored, was far from the exit, and there was simply not enough time for him to escape.

Seeing that the entire hall was about to sink, Li Canghai thought of a pool behind the coffin of the first emperor in desperation.

This pool is where Yamata no Orochi haunts. At this time, water splashes are gurgling on the water surface, and some fish can be vaguely seen in the water splashes.

Li Canghai suddenly felt hopeful, hurriedly put away the 'Xuanwu Token' and the Grass Pheasant Sword, then moved a stone, and jumped into the pool.

Almost at the same time he jumped into the pool, the entire hall suddenly collapsed.

The vibration like a landslide caused a vortex to appear in the pool.

The vortex turned faster and bigger, and soon formed a huge hole shape.

Li Canghai didn't notice, he was instantly sucked into the vortex, and rushed down along the vortex torrent.

Li Canghai struggled in the water for a while, drank a few sips of water, and soon lost consciousness.

……

After an unknown amount of time, Li Canghai suddenly opened his eyes.

At this time, he found himself lying in a room.

This room gave him a sense of familiarity, and it was Old Man Zhang's house.

He looked down at himself, the wound on his body had been cleaned and bandaged.

He glanced at the whole house, and there was a square table in the middle of the house, and there were thick porcelain teacups on the table.

Li Canghai stared at the square table, two lines of hot tears suddenly flowed from his eyes.
