Masterful appearance

After Chu Tianci came to Jingzhao and knew further clues about the Fourteenth Tombs of the Ming Dynasty, he was preoccupied with two things: how to comprehend the wordless stele and find the Jade Seal of Chuanguo.

Yue Lei Ting is indeed an old Jianghu who has been on the road for decades, and he understands the word "preparation for a rainy day" far more thoroughly than Chu Tianci. When he learned that there is a secret room in the underground palace of Da Ci'en Temple, he began to plan.

Chu Tianci took the relic of the Buddha's real body and opened the underground palace of the Da Ci'en Temple for the first time. If one day he finds the Jade Seal of Chuanguo and wants to go in, Yue Leiting really can't think of anything that can impress the Da Ci'en Temple A monk who is empty of all four elements.

So he started arranging his cronies a long time ago to serve as guards in Da Ci'en Temple one after another. In Yue Lei Ting's words, things that can be solved by money are not things.

Therefore, Chu Tianci went into the Da Ci'en Temple to have a look, and he knew the guard in uniform, Qing Yishui.

"Boss, all the people on duty tonight are our own people." Liu Hao looked a little funny in his uniform.

"Leave four people outside to let the wind go, and send two more to the place where the monk lives to watch. If there is any movement, let us know in time, and you come in with us." Yue Lei Ting was carefree on weekdays, and he was orderly in his work.

The whole process was simple and smooth. Even the door of the underground palace had been opened long ago. Entering the underground palace, Chu Tianci carefully took out the Jade Seal of Chuanguo.

"You have to think about it clearly. Although this jade seal is exactly the same as the real one, you once said that this mechanism is called a ten-jin pendant! When designing the mechanism, the things placed on it must reach the designed weight. It will be opened, it won't work if it's light or heavy." Yue Qianling said without much confidence. "The foundation under the secret room is made of mercury. If the mechanism is touched, we will all be buried here."

Chu Tianci weighed the Chuan Guoxi in his hand, except for Qiu Nuo, none of the people below was not worried, and said with a smile.

"Wealth and wealth are a matter of risk. How can we find the Fourteenth Tombs of the Ming Dynasty without taking some risks? Or...or you go up first, open it, and then come down. If something happens, I will be the only one buried alive, haha."

Yue Lei let out a heroic laugh.

"It's a good point. Wealth and wealth are in danger. It took me so long to find this place. Even if I buried it alive, I still want to see how many valuable things there are in the Fourteen Tombs of the Ming Dynasty."

After speaking, he took the Chuan Guoxi from Chu Tianci's hand, and put it in the groove without thinking.

"Boom!"

There was a low sound from behind the wall of the underground palace. Chuan Guoxi was slowly sinking in the groove, and the stone wall on the south side of the underground palace was slowly rising. When it was halfway up, Chu Tianci saw that the stone wall was full of strength. Half a meter thick, polished from a single block of granite, it weighs at least several tons.

With a happy expression on Yue Leiting's face, he said with a smile.

"Nowadays, the craftsmanship of counterfeiting is really superb. Not only are things made exactly the same thousands of years ago, but even the weight is just right. Even if I can't find Ming Shishiling, Godsend, you must give the seal of the person who made this fake jade seal later. Give it to me, get an agency right, and I can earn enough to wholesale jade seals when I go back to Rongcheng."

"..." Chu Tianci and Qiu Nuo looked at each other, but they didn't dare to laugh even if they wanted to. "I borrowed this thing too, and I will exchange it for others when I run out."

Although Yue Lei Ting said so, his eyes had long been fixed on the back of the stone wall. No matter how good things are, they are fake, but the Ming Tombs are full of genuine good things.

Behind the stone wall is a pitch-black passage, just wide enough for a person to pass through. With a flashlight, it is about 30 meters long to the exit.

Xiao Lianshan was born as a scout. When he encountered an unfamiliar environment, he instinctively walked in the front. He was dragged back by Chu Tianci just as he was about to take the first step.

"Zhu Yuanzhang is suspicious by nature. It is impossible to build a secret room under the underground palace without setting up organs, and this passage is too regular. If I were Zhu Yuanzhang, I would definitely not let people pass easily."

Chu Tianci took a flashlight to illuminate the two sides of the passage, and there were five statues on the stone walls on both sides, which were carved out of the stone walls by means of relief carving. They all looked down at the dark passage.

"Brother, what kind of people are carved on these two sides?" Xiao Lianshan thought for a while, took off his clothes, wrapped the flashlight inside, and threw it into the passage forcefully. Except for the sound of impact, nothing happened. "Brother, look, it's nothing, just a few broken stone statues, don't worry."

Chu Tianci still held Xiao Lianshan's hand tightly, and the flashlight wrapped in clothes in the passage gave off a weak light, which slightly illuminated the passage, while the stone statues on both sides looked very strange under the dim light.

"Zhu Yuanzhang will not erect a statue here for no reason, there must be his intentions." Chu Tianci said calmly. "No matter what's in here, it's all related to the Four Tombs of Ming Dynasty. Do you think Zhu Yuanzhang will put up a few statues casually, and welcome people who come in?"

"Brother Tianci, look at what is here, it seems to be engraved with words!" Gu Anqi lowered her head and illuminated the stone slab at the entrance.

Chu Tianci squatted down and wiped away the dust accumulated for hundreds of years with his hands, and there was indeed a line of writing on the stone slab at the entrance.

A book with a stylus can tell the difference between life and death, and a stone road separates two yin and yang.

Yue Qianling repeated these two lines in her mouth, pouted.

"Did Zhu Yuanzhang's mind be trapped by the door? He did so many good things in building the Fourteenth Tombs of the Ming Dynasty. I think he is just a scare. I still don't believe that these broken stone statues can jump down and eat me."

Yue Qianling walked forward stubbornly after finishing speaking, Chu Tianci dragged her back, pointed to the passageway and said.

"Do you know what this road is called?"

"..." Yue Qianling was taken aback, and said disapprovingly. "Dare Zhu Yuanzhang even named this road, but tell me, what kind of road is this?"

"Yellow Spring Road!"

Chu Tianci's words were astonishing, and everyone else looked at each other in blank dismay, and Yue Leiting came from behind.

"Tianci, why did this become Huangquan Road?"

Chu Tianci pointed to the statues on both sides and said calmly.

"A book with a stylus can tell life and death. Zhu Yuanzhang is a murderer, but he may not be able to kill anyone he wants. There is only one person who has this ability, the King of Hades! The stone statues on both sides are the King of Hades."

"Yan Wang?!" Xiao Lianshan said in great puzzlement. "Brother, didn't you say that Hades is only one person, why are there ten?"

"Zhu Yuanzhang believes in the way of metaphysics, and metaphysics originated from Taoism. In Taoism, there are ten emperors in charge of the underworld, also known as the ten palaces of Yama. The ones on the left are King Qin Guang, King Chu Jiang, King Song, King Five Senses, and Yama King." Chu Tianci pointed to the right side and said calmly. "Here are Biancheng King, Taishan King, City King, Equality King, and Wheel-Running King."

"Zhu Yuanzhang's posture is really big enough, bring the King of Hades from the Ten Palaces to guard the gate for him." Yue Lei Ting frowned and said dismissively. "Is it possible that these broken stone statues can still kill people?"

Chu Tianci pointed to the writing on the ground and said calmly.

"The second sentence of the stone road separates yin and yang, which means that if you walk through this road, you will be separated from yin and yang. It is a warning to those who come here that you will surely die if you walk this road!"

Qiu Nuo said softly at the side.

"Could it be that Zhu Yuanzhang played tricks on purpose, fearing that someone would enter the secret room, and intentionally engraved the ten kings of Hades at the door to scare people?"

"Who is Zhu Yuanzhang? He never needs any reason to kill people. There are countless people who died in his hands. Even the founding fathers of the country were almost killed. Such a person would just put on a show?" Chu Tianci shook his head in denial.

Yue Leiting walked back and forth in the underground palace a few times, and said anxiously.

"There is not much time in the first place, it is impossible to just stand at the door and not go in."

"Since Zhu Yuanzhang left the Fourteenth Tombs of the Ming Dynasty to his descendants, if the emperors who come here are later emperors, there must be a way to pass through." Chu Tianci looked at the passage with a flashlight for a long time. "There is no ropeway on this passage, it is impossible to pass through it in the air, and it is impossible to walk through it. How should we pass it?"

It's such a big place, I can't fly, I can't walk, so I have to climb over it. "Xiao Lianshan said irritably.

"Climb over..." Chu Tianci was startled, looking at Xiao Lianshan and muttering to himself. "Climb over... Climb?"

Xiao Lianshan quickly waved his hands and said in panic.

"Brother, if you miss you, I'll just say it casually. You must not be misled by me. This is the road to hell. If you go wrong, you will die. I'm a big bastard. You can't listen to what I say."

Chu Tianci ignored Xiao Lianshan, and quickly squatted on the ground to read the two lines again.

"A book with an iron pen judges life and death... It means that the king of hell will judge life and death, and wait for punishment in front of the king of hell... Everyone who goes to the underworld is a guilty person. No one dares to stand in front of the king of hell and listen to the sentence!"

"Kneeling!" Qiu Nuo suddenly realized.

"Yes! It's not crawling, it's kneeling!"

After Chu Tianci finished speaking excitedly, he looked at the deep and dark passage. If he was wrong, there would be a few more people on the Huangquan Road. Thinking of this, Chu Tianci took off his coat and handed it to Xiao Lianshan.

"Lian Shan, I'll go in first, if you have nothing to do, you can follow me, if I have something to do, you take the others and leave immediately.!"

He didn't wait for Xiao Lianshan to speak for a long time. After Chu Tianci took the flashlight from Qiu Nuo and turned his head, he saw Xiao Lianshan already kneeling in the passageway, walking more than ten meters on his knees.

"Lian Shan, I'm just guessing what you're doing in there, if you make a mistake, you'll die!" Chu Tianci shouted in surprise.

Xiao Lianshan continued to kneel and crawl forward without turning back.

"Brother, I used to be a soldier, and my emergency response ability is better than yours. In case something happens, I can still protect myself."

Chu Tianci looked at Xiao Lianshan's back and was speechless for a moment.

Xiao Lianshan quickly walked halfway on his knees, and nothing happened.

"Look, I know that Zhu Yuanzhang is trying to scare people. Brother Lian Shan is almost at the end, and nothing happened." Although Yue Qianling said it lightly, she was still sweating for Xiao Lianshan in her heart.
