Chapter 065: The Secret of the Bai Family Ancestral Hall

Standing on the same stone slab that counted seven, seven, and 49 inside the ancestral hall, Bai Chi looked around. Apart from a large altar facing the gate, the entire ancestral hall was just two rows of weapon racks on both sides. Nothing else.

The shelf behind the altar where the ranking of ancestors should be placed is also empty. This is what Bai Chi knew since he was a child.

Habitually took out a loudspeaker from his pocket, Bai Chi wanted to light it up and smoked a few times, but after staying in the detention center for two months, he contracted this bad habit.But looking back and thinking that this is the ancestral hall, Bai Chi grabbed the horn in his hand and accidentally dropped it on the bluestone slab under his feet.

When Bai Chi was about to bend down to pick it up, his eyes widened suddenly, because the bluestone slab was a bit different at this time.There was a glimmer of light in the pitch-black ancestral hall. Looking carefully, it turned out to be the light coming in from the four small windows on the four sides of the ancestral hall, and one of the rays of light fell on this stone slab.

Could it be that there is something particular about it? Seeing the reflected light, Bai Chi's heart moved, and he looked up to the top of his head, and he really found something different.The light reflected from the other three stones to the floor was not refracted again, but the one at the foot of Baichi was reflected to the dome of the ancestral hall again.

There seemed to be a small shiny thing on the reflected place on the dome of the ancestral hall, and the light reflected from the floor hit the shiny thing and was refracted to the ground again.Although there is only a very inconspicuous finger-thick line, if you really don't pay attention, you won't be able to see it at all, because the light refracted three times is very dim.

Bai Chi walked slowly to the place where it was finally refracted, and found that it was a corner behind the altar, two feet above the ground, where there was a wall full of bluestones.The walls of the entire ancestral hall are not piled up with a whole piece of bluestone, and there are some small stones at the joints.And the refracted light shines on one of the fist-sized bluestones.

Gently knocking on the small bluestone with his hands, Bai Chi was surprised to find that it was also solid, and there was no hollow echo behind the wall, which meant that there was nothing behind it.Wade White, who was full of doubts, was about to walk away, and couldn't help knocking hard on the small bluestone with his fist.

At this time, Bai Chi was pleasantly surprised to find that Xiao Qingshi seemed to be a little loose, so he couldn't help squatting down again, and observed carefully.He turned his head and thought for a while, it seemed that it was unrealistic to dig it out, so Bai Chi put his palm on the bluestone and pushed it hard, how could he know that the bluestone sank about a foot into the wall after pushing it .

At this moment, Bai Chi felt the entire Bai family ancestral hall shake slightly, and a lot of dust and some bird droppings fell from the dome.Then Wade White's eyes widened, because the stone slab he was standing on just now, that is, the one with 49 in the front and back was gone.

Walking over quickly to have a look, Bai Chi found that there was a hole of one meter square in the original place of the bluestone slab, and the stone slab sank to a place two meters below.Bai Chi wondered and thought: Isn't it solid?How can there be a hole?

There is nothing to be afraid of in his own village, Bai Chi turned around and walked to the entrance of the ancestral hall, probed out and looked around, but saw no one.So he gently closed the gate of the ancestral hall, turned around and walked to the entrance of the cave, turned over and jumped down.

After landing on the ground, Bai Chi looked up, and it was only two meters high and less than three meters away. What appeared in front of him was a dark corridor full of an ancient and decaying smell. About one meter, just enough for one person to move forward.

Seeing this, Bai Chi turned over and climbed up again with both hands and feet, walked quickly to the side of the altar and picked up a candlestick with a candle that was half the thickness of an arm.Then he went back into the hole again.After lighting the candlestick with a lighter, Wade White bravely walked forward slowly along the dark passage.

Looking around while walking, the entire passage is very clean, probably due to the long-term isolation, there is not even much dust inside.The two sides of the passage were not dug hastily, but were piled up with the same bluestone.

Bai Chi walked forward for about ten meters, and suddenly found that there was a small lampstand every ten meters on the wall.The material of the lampstand should be cast in bronze, only the size of a fist, with a wick as thick as a little finger standing on it.

Bai Chi leaned over with the candlestick in his hand and lit it at one point. He couldn't help but wonder what material the lamp oil in the candlestick was made of?After so many years, can it still be lit?

Just walking all the way, lighting up all the lampstands on the wall, Bai Chi couldn't help but feel more and more suspicious as he walked, because he didn't know how long the corridor was.Why did the ancestors of the Bai family build such a long passage?And it seems that there are some ventilation facilities inside, because judging from the lampstand lit on the wall, there is still enough oxygen inside.

The only thing that is certain is that the passage is not upward, but downward.In this way, we walked forward for about half a mile.A quaint stone gate finally appeared in front of Bai Chi's eyes.There is a thin layer of dust on the stone door, and a tiger pattern is carved on it.

Standing quietly in front of the stone gate, Bai Chi took a deep breath, raised his hand and put his palm on the stone gate, and pushed hard inside.

"Boom"

With a dull sound, the stone door opened slowly, and there was an inexplicable strange smell, like the smell of lamp oil on the wall of the corridor, accompanied by boundless darkness.

The candlestick in Bai Chi's hand can also illuminate a distance of about five or six meters in front. It seems that the inside is like a hall, and it is not clear how big it is.On the left side of the entrance, there is something like a manger one meter above the ground, but it is much smaller than ordinary mangers.There is also a thin layer of lamp oil inside.

This kind of kerosene looks like amber-like golden yellow, with a high concentration. Wade White touched a little with his hand and found that it was very viscous.But this is not the time to think too much, so he moved the candlestick in his hand over.

"Oh!"

A sound of rising flames startled Wade, and then a breathtaking fire dragon spread along the fire trough and along the periphery of the hall. The height of the flame was about half a meter high, if Wade hadn't retreated quickly, saying It might even burn his eyebrows.

With the fire pits lit, the hall brightened.Bai Chi who turned around was immediately stunned by everything that appeared in front of him.

The entire hall was shining with golden light, blinding Bai Chi's eyes.He couldn't believe what he saw, he saw countless gold, silver and ancient jade piled up in the middle of the hall, as high as a hill.

At this time, the whole picture of the hall was also displayed in front of Wade White, and there was only one feeling for Wade Wade, that is shock.The area of ​​the hall is about [-] square meters, surrounded by fire troughs that illuminate the entire hall very brightly.

In the middle of the hall are piles of ancient relics as high as a hill, some of which are ritual vessels.There is also a part of gold, gold nuggets of different sizes, various ancient jades, and some small tripods cast in bronze, and even some ancient weapons and armors.

If the weight of this pile of things is counted, gold accounts for at least one-third of it, and the weight is about ten tons. There are several thousand catties of ancient jade, and there are many other cultural relics.It simply cannot be estimated by catty and value.

Bypassing the hill-like pile of treasures, Bai Chi was stunned for a moment, unable to close his mouth for a long time...
