Chapter 45 Find the entrance
Seeing the "tentas" spread all over the surrounding hills dancing, the scene was really chilling.
I glared at Yuanxiao, "Thanks to you, you really got it right!"
"I don't know if there will be any," Yuanxiao cursed: "What is this TM? How come there are so many?"
A voice next to him said, "I have seen something similar in an ancient book," we looked in the voice, and the one who spoke was Wen Mo. "This thing should be called Yinming Snake Vine, which is a species left over from ancient times. This object belongs to Yin and generally grows around large tombs and specifically absorbs Yin energy in tombs, but it is unheard of for such a large-scale snake vine."
Qi Feng asked, "Then why does it attack people?"
"It doesn't just attack people," Wenmo continued. "Everything close to it will attack. They can even walk slowly underground, which also explains why those five-mouth stone people move because the snake vines in its body are moving."
"So that's how it is." I nodded after hearing Wen Mo's words. "No wonder you knew how to deal with it with a fire stick just now."
Wen Mo said lightly: "I wasn't sure it was the Yinming Snake Vine just now. I just tried it, but I didn't expect it to work." After hearing Wen Mo's words, I was sweating all over. If this thing was not the Yinming Snake Vine, would I have already died just now?
Everyone stared at the countless snake vines around us. Although we were covered with charcoal ash to restrain them, no one dared to enter this group of snake vines because they were too many.
I whispered to my second uncle, "Uncle II, what should I do?"
Uncle Er didn't say anything, and could only shake his head helplessly.
Wen Mo looked at the snake vine under the hill and said, "I'll try it."
I quickly stopped it, "No, this is too dangerous!"
Wen Mo had already walked out and shook his head, "It's okay, I'm just trying."
"But," I wanted to continue saying something, and the second uncle next to me pulled me, "It's okay, Wen Mo is not a reckless person."
I had to shut up, and everyone looked nervously as Wen Mo approached the Yinming Snake Vine step by step. Wen Mo's footsteps stepped on the "rustling" sound caused by the weeds, making the Yinming Snake Vine dance even more powerfully.
Wen Mo walked carefully to the dancing snake vines. Fortunately, Wen Mo's body was covered with charcoal ash, so the snake vines did not attack him immediately. Wen Mo hesitated for a moment, then raised his hand to test it, then turned around and walked back.
I sighed lightly, is it true?
Not only me, but everyone's faces showed a look of loss.
I suddenly remembered that just now, Master An seemed to know more about the Yinming Snake Vine. I clearly remember reminding us that the person who was afraid of charcoal ash was him.
"Master An, you old..." I turned around and wanted to ask Master An, but suddenly I found that Master An was gone, and even Qi Feng was gone.
I screamed in shock, "I'll go! Where have you Mr. An and the others?"
Hearing my shouts, the others turned around and everyone was surprised to find that Ye An and Qi Feng were really gone.
Uncle Er frowned and thought, "We were all paying attention to the snake vine and Wen Mo just now, and we didn't notice the actions of Ye An and Qi Feng at all. Who did you notice it?"
When everyone else shook their heads when they heard the second uncle's question.
"Hey! That's strange! Where can these two people go?" Yuanxiao looked around. In addition to the dancing snake vines, there were shadows of the two people there.
"Damn!" Yuanxiao suddenly patted his head and said, "You can't find out these two people, and then dump us!"
Zhou Cheng thought about it and said, "It may not be possible. Could it be that they were sneak attacked by these snake vines when we didn't pay attention just now?"
"This probably won't be," Uncle Second shook his head and said, "Even if it was sneak attacked by snake vine, it would be impossible for two living people to not make any sounds. In fact, "Uncle Second looked at Yuanxiao, "Actually, I think what Yuan Ding said is very likely. Yuan An has done similar things before, and this is why I no longer cooperated with him later."
"Uncle!" Yuanxiao cursed, "This old guy! When I go back and go out, I care about whether he is from the Yuan family or not. I will definitely kill him!"
"Okay, OK," I patted Lantern Festival, "Lantern Festival, don't be excited. Now that things have come to this, let's think about what we should do next?" Lantern Festival nodded after hearing this.
Zhou Cheng searched on the surrounding ground, "Can we find out the traces of the two of them leaving so that we can follow them too."
The second uncle waved his hand, "A old world like Yuan An can hide traces, and there are definitely ways to prevent you from finding the route they left. Moreover, even if you find it, it is difficult to guarantee that he will not stumbling in it. Therefore, for safety reasons, it is best to find a way for ourselves."
We all agree with Uncle Er very much, but the current problem is that we have nothing to do.
Wen Mo looked at the snake vines around him, "Have you noticed that there are a large number of snake vines around him, but there is not a single one in this area under our feet."
After Jingwenmo said this, we noticed that it was indeed the case. Uncle Er nodded, "It seems that we didn't recognize the true face of Mount Lu just now, because we were in this mountain."
"Uncle II, don't be lying on poetry at this time, hurry up and think about what to do." I urged Uncle II.
Uncle Er reached out and took out the compass from his bag, looked along the mountain, then turned his position again, then nodded and said, "This place is indeed a bit strange!"
I quickly asked my second uncle: "Uncle II, what's so weird about this?"
The second uncle squatted down and touched the ground, "Yuan Ding, is there any Luoyang shovel?"
"Yes, yes!" Yuanxiao agreed while taking out the shovel head and shovel handle from his bag. "Uncle Second, I tell you that I am definitely equipped with all my equipment, much more complete than when I went to Qilian Mountain."
"You're talking nonsense!" I looked at Lantern Festival, "We went to Qilian Mountain to prepare equipment mainly to save people, but now we are trying to fight back. Can the equipment be the same?"
When Lanxiao heard my words, she was embarrassed and nodded repeatedly, "Ah, yes, yes, haha..."
At the beginning, I didn't know the industry of backfighting, but now I think back to it. Some of the equipment I prepared at that time were indeed used for backfighting. I had suspected this before. It looked like Shi Tao was considering the possibility of getting a tomb when he was preparing equipment.
Now that I heard Lantern Festival say such words, a thought suddenly popped up in my mind. Did Lantern Festival know the purpose of that time? In this case, Kong Xue and I were kept in the dark, and Kong Xue was Uncle Kong's daughter. I even felt that it was possible that the only one who knew nothing at the time was me!
I was thinking about it all, and suddenly my second uncle's voice interrupted my thoughts, "There is something wrong with the soil layer, and," Uncle II grabbed a handful of soil and said: "There is a layer of charcoal ash added to these soil layers, obviously to prevent the invasion of Yinming Snake Vine. There may be something underneath."
Yuanxiao asked, "What do you mean?"
The second uncle stood up, gestured on the ground with a Luoyang shovel in his hand, frowned, his face changed, and he looked up at us, "Is this possible this place the entrance to the underground palace?"
"Entry?" We were all a little surprised when we heard my second uncle say this.
"No wonder, Yuan An and the others will get rid of us here. Have they found the entrance to the underground palace?" Yuanxiao said hatefully.
Uncle Er nodded, "We don't have to worry about how they got in. Since we already know the location of the underground palace, we only need a thief hole to penetrate. The location of this thief hole is probably..." Uncle Er pondered for a moment, then inserted the Luoyang shovel in his hand to the ground, "That's it!" Then he looked up and looked at Wen Mo, "Wen Mo, what do you think?" Uncle Er, who always acted on his own, was actually asking Wen Mo for his opinion, which surprised me a little.
Wen Mo looked at the confirmed position of Uncle Er, thought for a moment, and nodded.
"Okay, let's start!" Uncle Er pulled out the Luoyang shovel on the ground and called us to start digging holes.
I, Yuanxiao, Zhou Cheng and Wenmo, the four of them took turns to fight, and soon the hole was slashed down and hit it very deeply.
I handed the shovel to exchange for my Lantern Festival, climbed up the thief hole and took a long breath, then sat on the ground to rest. I looked at the surrounding Yinming Snake Vine, and gradually stopped again, becoming like a bush of short trees. This scene made me feel even more gloomy.
Suddenly, we heard the Lantern Festival shouting below: "There is a thief hole underneath!"
We all became alert and all went down the thief hole. At the slanting downward position of Lantern Festival, a layer of soil had fallen off, revealing another thief hole below. The thief hole was very deep and I don’t know where it leads.
We looked at each other, not knowing what was going on. Uncle II sighed, "It seems that this is a colleague, and even the location of the Dingjiu hole is the same. I see that this jiu hole has not been made for a long time, which is just a matter of nearly ten years. I don't know if there is anything left for us inside."
Lantern Festival lamented, "Old man! He was intercepted!"
Zhou Cheng said: "No matter what, since you have come here, I'll go in and take a look."
The second uncle nodded, "You must go in, and Yuan An and the others probably found this thief hole and sneaked in when we were not paying attention."
When Lanxiao heard this, she hurriedly said, "Let's hurry up too, otherwise we will be even less than us if we let the two people from the Yuan family take the lead!"
The second uncle nodded, "Then let's go in, but be careful after all, Wenmo and I are walking in front!"
