A knife in love

Chapter 2317
When Xiao Dong said this, he glanced at Li Qiufeng, and said in his mouth: "I heard those officials from the Chengdu Mansion talk about this matter, and I thought it was too weird. The appearance of flashing thunder made me realize that I am ignorant, I don’t know the size of the world, and I don’t know how many mysterious things are far beyond my imagination. I saw the lightning flashing just now, and it made me suddenly realize that maybe this tomb passage is a shrinking one. When the water flowed into the tomb passage, I don’t know what mechanism was touched, and there would be lightning and thunderbolts. To be able to create such a strange tomb passage according to the appearance of the heaven and the earth, one must be a very smart person, or a person who is proficient in evil. The demons of magic and heretics."

Xiao Dong hadn't finished speaking, when he heard a sound of "splash", the water wave turned three feet in front of Li Qiufeng, and then a person appeared, it was Qi Jiu.At this time, the water surface rose a lot, enough to cover Murong Danyan and Wang Xiaoyu under the water.Fortunately, the second girl is not weak in water, she gently swayed her hands and feet, and floated her body on the surface of the water.Seeing Qi Jiu get out of the water, Wang Xiaoyu was both surprised and happy, and said in a trembling voice: "Where did you go, do you know that we are all worried about you to death?!"

As soon as Wang Xiaoyu finished speaking, Murong Danyan said with a smile: "Yeah, Young Master Qi has strong martial arts and is cautious. He is the best candidate to explore the way. Brother Li and I are not worried. Some people are restless and distracted. , Mr. Qi, do you want to know who she is?"

When Murong Danyan said this, he pursed his lips and smiled, and glanced at Wang Xiaoyu.Although Wang Xiaoyu was bold, but being teased by Murong Danyan in such a way, he blushed immediately.She was about to grab the Murong Dan inkstone for a few words, when Qi Jiu said in a deep voice: "Brother Li, I swam along the passage in the stone wall to the stone platform outside. Sure enough, as Master Xiao said, a large stream of water is coming from the stone platform. The top of the cave poured down. Fortunately, the cave was so deep that most of the water fell into the bottom of the cave, but there was still a lot of sea water blocked by the stone platform, and poured into the tomb along the passage in the stone wall."

When Qi Jiu said this, Li Qiufeng rushed to ask: "Brother Qi, have you seen the old thief Liu Sheng?"

Qi Jiu shook his head, and said: "The old thief Liu Sheng has probably climbed up the stone steps, otherwise, how can he let me go when I walk through the stone wall? The old thief is insidious and cunning, and he is extremely smart. He wants him the most right now." It is not us who are killed, but Yagyu Tanmamoru and Morita Shinobu. The old thief Yagyu judges the situation and will not entangle us. He must first deal with the traitors of the Yagyu clan. If this old thief succeeds, he will go to the stone platform in the pool first , we are going to be in big trouble. Therefore, I think we must leave the tomb passage as soon as possible, and escape back to the water pool before Liu Sheng's old thief."

Li Qiufeng nodded, and said in his mouth, "By Brother Qi's suggestion, let's leave the tomb passage."

Everyone had no objection, and was about to escape from the tomb through the passage in the stone wall, when Wang Xiaoyu turned his head and looked in the direction of the tomb, sighed, and said, "I don't know what happened to our strange encounter just now. True or false. If we really had a nightmare, we wonder if the old thief Liu Sheng Zongyan was also tricked by Yelvbei in the dream like us."

Li Qiufeng and others felt a little uneasy when they thought of the previous situation.Xiao Dong didn't know what Wang Xiaoyu's words meant, so he turned his head and glanced at Wang Xiaoyu, and said, "Xiao doesn't know what strange things happened to you just now, but when it comes to dreams, Xiao knows a little bit about it." [-]. When the ancients built mausoleums, they often dug the tomb chamber extremely deep. After the mausoleum was completed, several tomb doors fell down. If a person inhales these strange qis, some viscera will die instantly as if poisoned, and some will become confused and see many monsters and ghosts in a daze, and in the end they will either be frightened to death or become lunatics.”

When Xiao Dong said this, he paused for a while, and then said: "If Lord Li saw any strange situation just now, he probably inhaled those strange auras. Fortunately, Lord Li is strong in martial arts and witty, so he was not harmed. It’s a blessing in disguise.”

After listening to Xiao Dong's words, Li Qiufeng thought to himself, although Xiao Dong was in the officialdom, he was secretly doing some shady things for the big bosses in the capital. Most of what people say is true.When I was on duty at the Fusi in Jinyiwei South Town, I heard many strange things from the Beisi's officers.Once they mentioned that when the first emperor was in power, an old house in the north of the city suddenly caught fire. Shuntian Mansion and Wucheng Bingma Si thought that someone set the fire on purpose, and sent people to the scene of the fire to investigate the case.Unexpectedly, after a search in the ruins, it was discovered that when the family was digging a well in the backyard, a fire burst out from the ground and burned the old house down.Seeing the strangeness of the matter, the officials of Shuntian Mansion and Wucheng Bingma Division did not dare to make their own decisions and reported the case to the Ministry of Punishment and the Ministry of War.After the two ministers discussed the matter, they moved the case to Fusi, Jinyiwei North Town.The Beisi sent many messengers to investigate the case, and finally found out that there was a large tomb under the old house of this family, and the owner of the tomb was a high-ranking official of the Jin Kingdom hundreds of years ago.When the family was digging the well, they dug through the passage of the tomb in a daze. They didn't know what was put in the passage, and it would catch fire when it caught fire.Presumably, just as Xiao Dong said, the tomb is buried deep in the ground, and the breath cannot flow. After a long time, a strange breath will be produced.

When Li Qiufeng was thinking, he only heard Qi Jiu say: "Brother Li, I have already walked through the cave once, so let me lead the way in front, and please trouble Brother Li to stop."

Li Qiufeng had no objection. He watched Qi Jiu dive into the water, and then Xiao Dong, Murong Danyan and Wang Xiaoyu also disappeared from the water surface one after another. Then he followed behind everyone and got into the cave in the underwater stone wall, quietly. He left the tomb passage silently.It was dark under the water, but fortunately the cave was narrow, so it was not difficult to swim forward by groping with hands.Everyone is armed with martial arts. They meditate and practice Qi on weekdays, and they can walk underwater without any difficulty.Although Wang Xiaoyu has never practiced internal skills, she grew up by the sea since she was a child. She has excellent water skills, and she can hold her breath underwater on weekdays, and she can reach the time of a stick of incense.So she followed behind Murong Danyan, without any effort, she had already walked through the outer stone room.After spending half a stick of incense, he finally reached the stone platform in the big stone cave.

Li Qiufeng was the last one to walk. He had just got out of the water, and there was a constant roar in his ears. He saw a large stream of water falling from the air in the big stone cave, most of which fell to the bottom of the cave, and one of the streams hit the stone platform. Follow the stone platform into the passage hole on the stone wall.The skeletons that everyone saw on the stone platform had already been washed into the abyss by the current, and there was no more will-o'-the-wisps, only the fire folder held high in Wang Xiaoyu's hand gave off a dim light.When Li Qiufeng thought of the scene of escaping from the pool earlier, it seemed like a lifetime ago.
