Commander's Destiny

Chapter 27 Bronze Fragment
I don't know when Jiang Qianfeng ran to the front again, he pointed to a smooth boulder with almost no cracks or gaps in front, and shouted very eagerly: "Master Bai, look quickly, something is blocking the front! "

"I saw it, it looks like a broken dragon stone," Bai Wuyan walked to the boulder, touched the boulder and continued, "The broken dragon stone is said to be left in a conspicuous place by ancient hermits when they built their tombs. The last barrier is also the most decisive and dangerous mechanism. The broken dragon stone weighs a thousand catties. Once it is put down, it symbolizes that the tomb door is closed, and Yin and Yang are separated from now on. But these are all legends. No one has seen the broken dragon in the ancient tomb so far. stone."

"Brother Bai, is this the Dragon-Breaking Stone? If it is, then we can't go any further?" Yao Jingli was really anxious when he heard Bai Wuyan say this, and his tone of voice improved a lot. .

Seeing that she was so anxious, Bai Wuyan quickly added: "I'm not sure if this is the Dragon-Breaking Stone, but I have analyzed it before. I don't think this is an ancient tomb. As for what it is, I don’t know yet, but if it’s not the ancient tomb, there should be other entrances and exits. Let’s look for it first.”

Bai Wuyan still firmly believed that this was not an ancient tomb, but Yao Jingli couldn't find any signs of other entrances in the corridor at all. Just when all her thoughts were lost, Jiang Qianfeng suddenly exclaimed as if he had discovered a treasure: "Look, there is a crack here!"

Jiang Qianfeng moved away and pointed to the rock wall that was blocked by him just now. Yao Jingli brought the torch closer, and he could clearly see that there was indeed a long and narrow crack in the rock mass extending from his waist height.The part where the crack meets the ground is the most cracked, and it is not as sharp as the top. The irregular arc-shaped opening looks like a small pangolin dug a hole here.However, the hole under the crack was too narrow, and Bai Wuyan couldn't stretch his arm in to check it after trying several times.

He thought that a half-sized guy like Jiang Qianfeng might be able to put his hand in, so he turned his eyes to Jiang Qianfeng: "Try it with someone else, Qianfeng, or you can put your hand in and feel it, maybe it will." What's new?"

"Master Bai, there won't be snakes or rats coming out to bite me, I'm afraid, so I don't want it."

Although he is still in his teens, Jiang Qianfeng is still a child after all, and it is normal to have things that he is afraid of.But just when he was timid and retreating, Yao Jingli secretly mustered up a lot of courage.She squatted down directly, exposed her arm in front of the hole for a test, and said, "Forget it, why don't I try it, my arm is thinner than his, you see, it should be able to Into it."

"Qianfeng, Qianfeng, look at Jingli, a weak woman, but she is so strong and brave. You are still a man. If you are asked to do such a thing, you can't lead the way. It's really embarrassing for you Longhushan." Bai Wuyan finished teasing Jiang Qianfeng sarcastically, then turned his head and said softly to Yao Jingli: "Jingli, you must be careful, if there is a situation, quickly stretch out your hand."

"Don't worry, Brother Bai, with you guys here, I'll be fine." After saying that, Yao Jingli gritted his teeth, and slowly stretched his hand into the narrow cave.

When Yao Jingli's forearm did not enter the cave, Liu Ye frowned slightly, and a painful expression appeared on her face. She struggled for a while, then turned her head and said to Bai Wuyan: "Brother Bai, although the space inside is It should be more spacious, but it seems to be blocked by broken stones, I tried to push hard just now, although the stones loosened a little, I still can’t push it.”

"In that case, I'll lend you some strength, but it may hurt if your hands are caught in the middle." Bai Wuyan smacked his lips, looked at Yao Jingli with compassion and said.

"It's okay, come on, I can bear it."

Seeing Yao Jingli's firm eyes, Bai Wuyan had no choice but to put his broad palm on her delicate shoulders, and exerted his strength slowly.Suddenly Yao Jingli was in pain and screamed, Bai Wuyan quickly stopped and asked eagerly: "Are you okay?"

"I'm fine. There seems to be something buried under the stone. I'll try to see if I can take it out." Yao Jingli responded, leaning down and pressing one side of her forehead and ear toward the stone wall, stretching her arms as far as she could Go into the cave and explore.

However, the moment Yao Jingli's ears touched the stone wall, she suddenly shouted: "Brother Bai, come and listen, it sounds like a stone falling into the water."

Bai Wuyan quickly put his ear to the stone wall when he heard that there was indeed the sound of stones rolling and falling into the flowing water. He thought for a while, and deduced: "It seems that we have found it. If there is water nearby, there must be a sound. The passage to enter, I think there is no other way out here, why don't we go back first and look carefully at the streams and lakes we passed by before."

"Okay, Brother Bai, wait for me to take this thing out first, I have it." Yao Jingli said, pulling his arm back from the hole.Her hand was cut by something, and the blood was dripping.

"Your hand is bleeding, let me find something to bandage it for you." Jiang Qianfeng said as he rummaged in his bag, quickly took out some old linen clothes, and tore them into strips.

Yao Jingli didn't care about the pain, and didn't bandage the wound, but handed the things in his hand to Bai Wuyan and said, "It's okay, leave me alone, take a look, what is this?"

Bai Wuyan took the thing over and took a closer look. It turned out to be a small piece of bronze, with obvious corrosion marks on it, probably very old.Jiang Qianfeng wiped it with a sackcloth for a long time before he could vaguely see some runes.
