Chapter 266

I turned my gaze and looked into the snake cave.

After a day and two nights of beheading, the entrance of the cave can only be described in four words, that is: appalling.

Snake head, snake tail, blood...

There was another tug in my heart, I took a deep breath and looked into the cave.

At this time, there were no snakes in the cave, and a huge deep pit was vacated where the snakes were lying. It was pitch black, like the mouth of a giant beast, waiting for the prey to come.

I went to see the treasure entrance first. There was no trace of damage on the mountain wall. As I expected, they didn't find it here.

Left, right, pit...

After confirming that there was no one in the cave, I explored the side cave again. Except for a few nests of rats, there was nothing else...

And on the mountain road a few miles away, Baili Tianqi and the others were carefully walking through the rainforest and descending the mountain in the direction indicated by the map. It seemed that they followed the map to find the blood-stained place.

I emptied the snake cave and was lured down the mountain by my tricks. I expected it.However, things are going so smoothly, but I feel that something is not right...

Since Baili Tianqi was able to bring someone who can control snakes, it can be seen that his thoughts are meticulous.

In other words, he also killed the snake for two days and one night.

That's it, let's leave easily...

"What's the situation ahead?" Xu Shi saw that my expression was wrong, so Xuanyuan Chen asked.

I shook my head and looked intently again.

Baili Tianqi's expression was as usual, and everyone around was carefully poking the large leaves with wooden sticks. The group walked slowly, and it seemed that there was nothing unusual.

Even so, I was still afraid of being cheated, so I went back to the simple tent and deliberately rested for another day. At night, I looked intently again. Baili Tianqi had traveled several miles and set up camp in a dense forest.

Then I made up my mind and asked everyone to pack up their things, beat a few hares to burn the reserves, collected a lot of dew and stored them in the water bag, and then went to the mountain atoll at night.

Some scenes are already shocking from a distance, but they are even more shocking when you are on the scene.

Without further ado, I went directly to the snake cave.

The cave was pitch black, and an extremely foul smell rushed over.Fortunately, I was prepared and quickly covered my mouth and nose with a cotton handkerchief.

Ming Qi and several other men had already prepared kerosene, soaked the remnants of their clothes, wrapped them around wooden branches to make simple torches, lit a torch, and the cave immediately lit up.

The place where the entrance to the treasure is hidden is fortunately on the side of the snake cave. There is a narrow edge there, just enough for one person to step on.

Without hesitation, I flew over directly, first knocked on the stone wall with my hand, then looked at it intently for a while, and found that there was a gap between the stone wall and the entrance of the treasure, and the stone wall was extremely thick, and I wanted to dig it open manually. Seems unlikely.

Is there a mechanism...

With a thought, I quickly dragged the person in the team who has studied the mechanism to the edge.

He is the only one who doesn't know martial arts among all the people. Standing on a half-hanging height, he seemed to be a little scared. Here, I am much more emboldened.

After studying it carefully, after watching it for about half an hour, he said to me guiltily, "Master, Liu Dehai... I can't see that there is a mechanism here..."

If it is easy to see, Baili Tianqi will not leave...

I spied on him and asked him to pull him back. After thinking about it, I looked at the stone wall again.

This time, I started looking from the bottom of the snake cave, inspected inch by inch, bit by bit, and finally found that there was a depression smoothed by the soil layer under the stepping edge.

Then I jumped back to the edge, pulled out the Mo Que, and stabbed at the stone wall under the snake cave...

Jumping down and stepping on the handle, I carefully scraped off the hidden layer of soil on the groove with the golden dart in my hand, and a pattern of petals appeared.

Then I took out the square camel flower jade pendant, put it into the groove according to the pattern, slapped it, and twisted it...

"Rumble..."

Dust was flying in the cave, and many miscellaneous stone fragments fell from the cave ceiling. After a while, the stone wall in front of him parted from both sides, revealing a round arched stone door with a height of one person inside.

When camel blossoms come out, the world will be overthrown...

It turns out that the camel flower is really the key to the treasure.

"Master, master, you are actually a master of the research institute!"

Liu Dehai looked shocked, and then felt guilty again, "Master, my subordinates are incompetent, I can't do such a small thing well, and let the two brothers..."

He choked up, and his tone was heavy.

He is also a master of the research institute, but he does not know martial arts. Along the way, his fellow brothers deliberately protected him. One day he was chased by locusts, and he ran a bit slower. The two brothers died for him in order to save him.

He originally had ambitions in mind, but he couldn't even see a mechanism, so he was naturally frustrated.

I smiled and said, "Brother Liu, don't underestimate yourself. I'm just playing tricks on the door. The rest of the road depends entirely on you. You see, I don't know how to solve the mechanism of this door. You still have to come."

Liu Dehai seemed a little embarrassed, "What did the master say, it's his duty to share the master's worries, so let's go forward and study it."

I nodded and said yes, Ming Qi then pulled him to the round arch, he was obviously more cautious this time, he looked carefully bit by bit, and soon found the mechanism.

Seeing nothing, he knocked left and right on the stone gate a few times, the middle of the stone gate opened with a "pop...", and a gossip disk appeared.

After concentrating on studying for a while, he turned three thousand times to the left and three times to the right on the board, and then slapped the Ziwu Maoyou on the board.

"open!"

He shouted loudly, the stone door was silent at first, but after a while, there was a strange sound of "Kach... Kacha...", and it slowly opened from bottom to top.

There is no light in the cave, and it seems that there is wind blowing out of the cave, and the ventilation inside is not bad.

Ming Qi poked the torch in first, looked around and jumped in first.

After a while, he shouted from inside, "It's very big inside, there's no danger for now, you can come in."

As soon as he finished speaking, Qiu Jin also jumped in with a "whoosh...", followed by several others, and when the last one entered, she did not forget to drag Liu Dehai beside her.

Xuanyuanchen and I were the last to go in. While jumping down, the circular arch slowly closed. When it was halfway closed, the outer mechanism wall also began to close together...

Since it is a mechanism, it can be entered and exited as soon as possible, and the people did not see panic, and quickly lit a few more torches, and the inside suddenly lit up.

I looked around and saw that the surrounding area was very wide, but also very empty.

There are rough stone walls all around. Although the ground is paved with bluestone, it is also full of potholes.

Mingqi said casually, "It is rumored that the treasures are exquisite everywhere, and the money and goods are even richer than a country. Looking at it now, I am afraid that the rumors are too much. This appearance does not look like a place where endless treasures are placed."

At first glance, it is so.

However, when I was in the Qinglan Pavilion, I had to enter the nine-story Yi Pavilion Tower for exams every once in a while, not to mention other things, but the first floor of the Pavilion Tower, several times I went in, it looked different, showing the second of the mechanism.

There are many rumors here, so it's better not to be careless.

I said, "It's just a rumor, maybe there is some evidence, we just came in, let's have a look."

Ming Qi nodded, hugged his shoulders and stopped talking.

Qiu Jin was careful, first pulled out the climbing claws from the bag, shook them twice, and hit the ground in front of him hard. Seeing that there was no abnormality, he probed to the left and right sides again to make sure it was safe, and then moved forward a few steps.

In this way, he walked slowly all the way, and finally reached the opposite wall.

There is also a stone gate here, so Liu Dehai went up to the front, studied the stone gate carefully, slapped "Ka..." on the right side of the gate next to the wall, and dropped a circle of nine chains from the upper side of the stone gate.

"What does this mean?" I was a little puzzled.

Xuanyuan Chen said, "Maybe the door will only open if you unlock all the locks."

Liu Dehai nodded and said, "What the young master said is true, but it is so."

A tall person next to him said, "Then this mechanism is too simple. A six-year-old child can solve the nine interlocking locks. I didn't think so before, but now, I also feel that this treasure seems to have a false name."

"Well, I think so too..."

The people on the side all nodded.

Liu Dehai smiled slightly without explaining, so he concentrated on playing with it.

He explained it carefully, bit by bit, step by step.

I can see clearly from beside him that this lock is not simple, it is full of five elements and gossip, and if there is a slight mistake, you have to untie it from the beginning.

"Damn it!" Liu Dehai suddenly shouted.

Well, what's the sound behind you!
