Chapter 208 Chapter [-] Discovery Traces
Across the thick rock wall, everyone could still hear the furious whistling of the giant oil spider next door, as well as the clicking sound of constantly digging the rock wall.

"Fortunately, we ran fast, this oil spider is really difficult to deal with." Wu Lian said with lingering fear.

"What is this? Back then we had seen a bigger black gold hairy crab than this one. That was invulnerable to weapons, water and fire." Yu Feng was actually a little proud, as if he had seen something more powerful than this oil spider. It was a good thing. .

"Black gold hairy crab?" Wu Lian asked blankly.

"Yeah, it looks like a small building. My little sister Yanru's tooth knife is so sharp, it can't cut through the hard shell of that black gold hairy crab." Thinking of the situation at that time, Yu Feng felt that this crab was even more so. The giant oil spider is actually not that scary.

"Is the Yaknife you are talking about the weapon Captain Xiao Xia always carries?" Zhang Yanlei is most interested in cold weapons. He always thought that the one Xia Yanru carried should be a sword or a knife, but it was wrapped Can't see the whole picture.

"Yeah, it's very beautiful, but it's also very sharp, absolutely cutting iron like mud." Mentioning that knife, Yu Feng was very envious.

"Then why didn't Captain Xiaoxia use it just now?" Wu Lian was puzzled, if this knife is so powerful, isn't it more convenient than the long whip.

"Of course my sister Yanru thinks this big oil spider is not worthy of dealing with it with a tooth knife." Yu Feng said it for granted.

Wu Lian nodded understandingly, but thinking of the previous situation, even if Captain Xiao Xia didn't use a knife, the power of that long whip was not weak at all.

"You don't talk about Sister Xia's affairs with others in the future." After Yu Feng and Wu Lian finished bragging, Tu Hongxing took the opportunity to warn in a low voice.

"Why can't you say it? Sister Yanru is very powerful." Yu Feng didn't react too much for a while, thinking that it was not a big deal.

"Wealth is not revealed, we just need to know how powerful Sister Xia is. If more people know about it, what if they all come to Sister Xia to help me get involved in those dangerous things?" Tu Hongxing said bitterly.

"That can't be done." Yu Feng stared, and regretted the nonsense he had just said.

"Hmph." Seeing that Yu Feng understood, Tu Hongxing didn't say any more, just closed his eyes and meditated with a soft snort.

After resting for a short time, everyone continued on their way. At this moment, they hadn't walked out of the cave. In this half day, except for the fight with the oil spider, the rest of the time was almost spent in the cave. .

"Sister Yanru, why do I feel like we've been going around in circles here?" After walking for another hour, Yu Feng couldn't help but said.

"I didn't go around in circles." Xia Yanru shook her head. They left marks along the way. If they were really going around in circles, they would definitely come across the places they marked before. If they didn't, it means they never turned back.

"No, but look, there is a mark here. We have just arrived, so there should be no mark." Yu Feng pointed to the mark on a rock wall in front of him and said.

Xia Yanru followed his fingers to look over, her eyes sharpened, and she thought that she shouldn't turn back, she had carefully discerned all the way.

After taking a closer look, they found that the mark was not the same as what they depicted. It seemed that someone had been here before them, but they hadn't encountered this mark before. It seemed that the other party walked through another passage. Just happened to meet here.

"We didn't engrave this mark." Hu Fei also followed, and Dang even recognized that it was not engraved by them.

"Well, follow this mark." Xia Yanru nodded, no matter who carved this mark, as long as you follow along, you will definitely meet it.

"Could it be left by Battalion Commander Wu and the others?" Based on their purpose of coming here, Hu Fei couldn't help guessing.

"Maybe, let's go." Xia Yanru also had some doubts, so she decided to follow the mark, so that no matter what, she would always meet the person who left the mark again, and then she would naturally know who it was.

With the markers to guide the way, Xia Yanru and her group walked more smoothly than before, and they didn't have to stop and go and judge the direction to waste time.

"There's blood here." Hu Fei pointed to the blood stains on the ground not far away and said loudly.

"Be on guard." Xia Yanru held a long whip in her hand, and her steps were much lighter.

Bypassing the rock cave, the group of people soon found that they followed the signs all the way and walked out of the dense cave. Right now, there was a hall in front of them. This hall seemed to be a pill room dedicated to refining pills. The huge medicine cauldron is very conspicuous.

"It turned out to be an alchemy room. The owner of this tomb is either a well-known alchemist or a prince who believes in Taoism." Zhang He looked at the medicine cauldron and guessed.

"Whether it's an alchemist or a prince, neither of them is good, and I don't know if this person is dead. Why do you need this alchemy room?" Yu Feng stepped forward to observe the medicine cauldron, but the medicine cauldron was too high, and with his height Couldn't even see inside.

"The regulation of this medicine tripod seems to be from the Western Han Dynasty, and the layout of the main hall is mostly in the style of that period. It seems that this is an ancient tomb of the Western Han Dynasty." Tang Yulou carefully examined the decoration style in the hall, and soon The age of this ancient tomb can be judged.

"The Western Han Dynasty is about 2000 years ago, right?" Yu Feng rubbed his chin in thought.

"That's right. Actually, when I saw the oil spider, I had this guess. The species of oil spider has been extinct for a long time. This kind of creature first appeared in the "Lie Bu You Zhuan" written by Yang Siyan, a famous Western Han Dynasty scholar. Besides, It has not appeared in any ancient documents." Zhang He also echoed.

Yu Feng murmured, "As an afterthought", he thought to himself, why didn't you say it sooner if you found out earlier, what's the point of saying this now, but as for the creatures that should have been extinct, but appeared in this ancient tomb of the Western Han Dynasty, he couldn't help guessing that it was It wasn't because all the oil spiders were caught and raised here that there were no more oil spiders out there.

"Captain Xiao Xia, the blood will disappear here, but there is a mark here, the same as before." Hu Fei took advantage of the gap between a few people talking, and led the team to check the alchemy room, and finally came to a side door The mark was found before.

Xia Yanru stepped forward to identify the mark, and it was indeed left by the group in front of them. She immediately ordered to enter the side door and continue to chase. She must find the previous group of people, so as to confirm whether it was the Wu Weijun and others they were looking for.

After entering the side door, there is another corridor that can't be seen at a glance. Every five or six steps, there is an ever-burning lamp embedded in the wall. The lights are bright, and the murals on the wall can be seen at a glance.

"These turned out to be ascending pictures, my God, they are absolutely exquisite!" Zhang He's attention was instantly attracted by these well-preserved murals.

"Ascension map? Could it be that the owner of this tomb is an alchemist?" Yu Feng didn't realize what Zhang He said was so exquisite, but he remembered that they said before that the person buried in this underground palace was likely to be an alchemist. It is quite in line with the identity of an alchemist.

"The picture of ascension does not mean that there are only alchemists. It was popular in the Western Han Dynasty to draw murals of this kind of 'feathering and ascension' or 'expelling epidemics and evils' in tombs. The poet Qu Yuan once said, 'Still feathered people live in Danqiu, leaving behind immortals. Old Township', it can be seen that this idea of ​​ascending after death has existed as early as Qin Dynasty." Zhang He immediately became eloquent when talking about his field of expertise.
