The group of thieves marched up to Pingshan Mountain and set up camp on the mountain.

By noon, the heat was unbearable.

At this time, the Yang Qi of heaven and earth is at its peak, while the Yin Qi is at its weakest.

Those poisonous insects and centipedes are all hiding in the darkness, and the poisonous mirages in Pingshan are also the weakest. It is a good time to explore Pingshan three times.

Chen Yulou and his party once again stood on the cliff and asked the partridge sentry to observe the situation at Pingshan.

When moving mountains or unloading ridges, you won't be able to use Jin Xiaowei's skills: the shape of the mountain on the outside and the ability to check the ground veins on the inside.

However, Chen Yulou is good at using the word "smell", and he has already figured out how big the space is in the mountains.

The urn city where the mercury mechanism was used for infusion has been buried by the quicksand in the mountains. There should be the Hades Palace in the mountains. The general location is in the middle of the "bottle belly", which is also the goal of their trip. But because the mountain is made of bluestone,

It is difficult to distinguish the traces of mud by looking at the color of the grass, and it is impossible to find the entrance to the real underground palace tomb passage.

Maybe there is no entrance to the Pingshan Ancient Tomb at all. The real entrance is only the organ city. When the Hades Palace was closed, it was blocked by huge boulders filled with copper juice. If you want to enter the ancient tomb to steal treasures, it seems that the only way is from the cliff on the top of the mountain.

Go down, and it leads directly to the apse. However, the apse and the underground palace are also blocked by stone bars. Without a large team of people, it is impossible to move away the huge stones blocking the road.

Therefore, Chen Yulou planned to lead people down from the mountain gap, and then use explosives to blow up a passage directly to the Hades Palace.

Or you can still use explosives as the main method, choose a weak location on the ridge, blast through the rocky mountain, and dig out the underground palace.

This is a routine used by the Xiling group to rob tombs. Although it is feasible, it requires a lot of time, manpower and material resources.

Partridge Whistle looked at Pingshan and pondered for a moment, then suddenly thought: "If you can't get in from the mountain, why not go in from the bottom of the mountain?"

When Chen Yulou heard this, he frowned and asked if he was sure?

Partridge Whistle said: "The sloping mountain of Pingshan forms an angle with the ground, with vines hanging upside down and gurgling water. According to Feng Shui, any large gap at the bottom of a mountain that has not seen sunlight for thousands of years is a place in the shade.

But there are dense vines inside, which shows that the base of the mountain is not entirely rocky. It will definitely save more effort to dig up from the dead corner at the bottom of the mountain than from top to bottom."

After some discussion, everyone immediately decided to move the mountains and divide the unloading troops into two groups.

Chen Yulou and Luo Laowai led the engineering battalion, buried blast holes on the ridge, and blasted the mountain with rocks to excavate the tomb passage.

Partridge Sentinel led the two junior brothers and sisters from Moving Mountain and some bandits from Xiling to find the entrance from the bottom of the mountain.

Anyway, they have enough manpower to enter the mountain this time, so they should take a two-pronged approach. No matter which way they succeed, they will get the treasures in the Pingshan Ancient Tombs.

Partridge Whistle went to the bottom of the mountain and it was inconvenient to take the chickens with him, so Chen Yulou gave his Nuqing Chicken to Partridge Whistle to take with him to prevent poisonous insects.

Chen Yulou and Luo Laowai selected a location on the weak ridge of Pingshan Mountain. While asking for positions, they used explosives to explode.

As Chen Yulou's bodyguard, Zhang Lin went to Shanyang with Chen Yulou.

Partridge Whistle, his junior sister Hua Ling, the old foreigner, and a dozen Xiling bandits led by Miss Hong were ready and turned to the back mountain.

But the area at the bottom of the mountain is not easy to get to.

From the pass to the bottom of the mountain, there are heavy rocks and steep slopes. There is almost no way to pass. You need to climb down from the steep mountain top.

A group of people climbed down the dangerous path of the cliff with the help of the centipede hanging ladder from the Xieling sect.

The group of people climbed the vines and ladders like apes and quickly descended to the bottom of the mountain.

Nothing could be seen from the top. When they reached the bottom of the mountain, everyone saw that this bluestone mountain was hanging diagonally in the air.

I don’t know how many tens of thousands of years it has been? If the mountain collapsed suddenly, everyone below would be smashed to pieces, and even gods would not be able to dodge.

Although the thieves were extremely brave, they could not help but breathe heavily when they saw the dangers of the mountain.

The bottom of the mountain was wet and humid, and water seeped into the top of the mountain and turned into rain.

Everyone had no choice but to put on their bamboo hats, put on their raincoats, and carry lanterns before moving forward. From time to time, they pushed aside and cut off the rattan baskets that were blocking their way, and walked extremely slowly.

After walking a few hundred steps, the group of thieves came across a pool formed by accumulated rainwater in the mountains.

Because it has been soaked in gloomy water all year round, the ground has sunk in a piece, and the water is very deep. The water surface is full of duckweeds, ripples are formed by the dripping water, and there are many long vines hanging down in the water.

Partridge Whistle saw that there was really a cave at the bottom of the mountain, which further confirmed his previous judgment. However, this place was closed in a deep place, and the water was deep. If he wanted to continue walking in, he had to climb a vine, and Partridge Whistle was able to use this method.

Come out, but the rest of the people may not be able to do it. Is it possible to swim in this biting and cold water? Thinking of this, I can't help but frown slightly.

Miss Hong saw what he meant, so she asked her men to hang the centipedes on the mountain ladder to form a net. The bamboo tube was hollow and had great buoyancy, so it could be used as a bamboo raft for crossing the water.

Partridge Whistle nodded in praise, immediately stepped onto the raft made of bamboo ladders, raised the lantern to illuminate, and after seeing the direction clearly, ordered everyone to paddle forward, and the three rafts headed straight towards the center of the pool.

Halfway through the water, the thieves stopped moving forward. One of them said, "No, Miss Hong, the Taoist priest's peace charm is hot again."

The Partridge Whistle and the others hadn't figured out why the safety talisman was so hot and why everyone didn't move forward. They heard Miss Hong say: "Everyone, be on guard. I'm waiting to get into the water. The safety talisman has not responded. The danger should be in front. Prepare the fire talisman and form an array."

defense."

Partridge Whistle frowned, and Hua Ling asked, "Senior brother, what are they talking about, the peace talisman and the fire talisman? Aren't those from the Taoist sect? Are those things useful?"

The Partridge Whistle shook his head and continued to move forward when he saw that the group of thieves had finished forming their formation. He said that he didn't know yet and just said: "Let's see and then talk!"

After the bandits were ready, Partridge Watch saw the people from Xiling using grass shields to form a square formation on the temporary bamboo raft built by hanging the centipede ladder. A person in front of them lightly cut his index finger with a knife, ready to press it on a piece of paper at any time.

On top of the talisman seal.

This scene was so confusing to watch.

The old foreigner said: "Brother, when I was in Yizhuang, I heard from Xiling that the Taoist next to Chen Yulou could use the talisman to use the power of the Five Elements. Judging from Xiling's posture, they seemed to be right!"

As he spoke, the bamboo raft moved slowly. Partridge Whistle and Red Girl both had excellent ears, and they could hear countless crawling things in the darkness ahead.

Miss Hong immediately told everyone to be on guard, and said: "Brothers, don't panic. The Taoist Priest's talisman and seal are here, and even the demons and ghosts will be burned away. Just be careful and don't let that thing sneak up on us."

The thieves heard the words and drove off into the darkness.

Red Girl and Partridge Whistle, old foreigners are all people with excellent eyesight, but they are not as good as Chen Yulou who had an adventure when he was born and opened his night eyes in an ancient tomb. It is difficult to see clearly in such a dark place.

However, Miss Hong had seen with her own eyes the bottle of poison that had grown latent in the mountains. Foreseeing the danger ahead, she had written a talisman in one hand and three flying knives in the other, staring at the front with all her concentration.

He thought: I don’t care what you come out with, I’ll first use the Moon Gate method to stab you a few times, and then call the Taoist priest’s talisman seal.

As the bamboo raft moved forward, the noise in front became louder and louder. It seemed like a group of rats were biting each other. They were so densely packed that it was hard to tell how many they were.

A thought flashed through his mind and he shouted: "Be careful, that thing is coming!"

Miss Hong and others were startled when they heard the sound, and became even more alert.

At this moment, a rumble was heard, and countless bats flew out from the rock wall in front.

The bat swarm was like a black tornado, flying outward between the narrow rock wall and the water.

Because there were so many of them, and they were frightened and flew out, many of them were squeezed by their companions and fell into the water, or bumped into the stone walls and rattan branches, causing bursts of miserable neighing that echoed at the bottom of the mountain.

When Red Girl saw the swarm of bats flying out, she knew that her flying knife was useless and shouted: "Fire shield!"

Fire shield is one of three ways to use fire talismans.

If you pinch it and throw it on the soil, it will become a wall.

If you pinch it and throw it forward, it will become a pillar of fire.

If you pinch it and throw it over your head, it will form a cover to protect the area three meters around the user of the talisman.

After entering Pingshan Mountain for the second time, Chen Yulou bought some of Zhang Lin's talisman and seal scripts and told everyone how to use them.

The thieves who had been on alert for a long time heard the red girl's order and threw a fire talisman from each raft, then covered the bamboo rafts.

The bats were frightened and panicked. At that time, it was impossible to count how many bats bumped into the fire talisman.

This fire talisman is not an ordinary talisman, but a spiritual talisman.

Its lethality is extraordinary and comparable to that of fire.

Everyone saw that the bats that hit the fire talisman were instantly turned into fly ash, which made everyone marvel. Even Partridge Whistle felt incredible.

Due to preparations, all the bats in the cave flew away, and everyone suffered no losses. They continued to move forward as if there was no danger.

Hua Ling was the youngest in Moving Mountain, and among the group of tomb robbers, he and Miss Hong were the only two women. Although they were not very familiar with each other, they talked about everything.

However, there was a lot of traffic, and when he saw the bat flying away, he asked Miss Hong: "Sister Hong, what did you use just now? Why did it become a big fire cover?"

Miss Hong smiled and said, "That's the fire talisman. It was made by the Taoist priest we always invited the old man from the head family. In addition, there are also the four talismans of gold, wood, water and earth. If there is a chance, we can show it to you."

."

When Hua Ling heard this, her eyes were filled with stars and she said, "How awesome!"

The partridge whistle on the side heard this and said: "Miss Hong, I don't know if it is convenient for me to borrow the talisman and seal to watch next?"

I have traveled all over the country and traveled north and south, and the real Taoists have experienced a lot, but I have never seen any real person with such a method."

The red girl said: "You have nothing to do!" Then she took out a fire talisman and showed it to Partridge Whistle.

Seeing the three people in Bishan looking around together, he said: "We have always looked at it, but we can't see anything. If you want to study it, you can buy some from the Taoist priest after you go out. These talismans and seals cost ten silver dollars each."

"

"Ten silver dollars?" When Hua Ling and the old foreigner heard this, they both secretly exclaimed. Ten silver dollars was enough for the three of them to eat and drink for ten days, and enough to feed a family of three for a month.

At this time, Partridge Whistle, who was studying the talisman paper with the help of the thieves' lantern, frowned and said: "Cinnabar, fine yellow paper, chicken blood, I can't see anything else for the moment.

But I saw that when you used it, you stained it with the blood of your index finger, what can you say?"

"I don't know! I only heard the Taoist Master say that to use his talisman, what kind of Qi must be used to activate it. But for us mortals, Qi cannot run through the meridians and can only be hidden in the flesh and blood.
