Chapter 299 The Secret in the Secret Path
Zhu Liang and the ancestor of the Chen family jumped into the cave one after another and broke the stone gate. The two walked along the dark and dark secret path. After turning many turns, a ray of light finally appeared in front of them!Is this going to the exit?The two walked forward quickly with renewed energy, and the light ahead became clearer and clearer as they walked faster and faster.

Finally, they came close to the light source, and the two couldn't help being stunned.

Where is the exit here?But it was a closed stone wall, and it seemed that the road had come to an end.And the light source is neatly arranged ten huge night pearls above their heads, shining brightly in this dark hole, as if guiding people who enter the secret path to come here.

"This is the end? There is no exit and there is no difference, so how can we find clues?" The ancestor of the Chen family looked at the surrounding stone walls and asked Zhu Liang in a daze. There was nothing but the night pearl above their heads. , is there no clue here?

Zhu Liang didn't think so, the luminous pearl on the head was obviously inlaid here artificially, it's absolutely impossible for it to look good, right?Being so noticeable must have been intentional.

The place at the end of the secret path is wider than other places, with smooth stone walls on both sides, and there is nothing special under the feet, just an ordinary road.

This made Zhu Liang puzzled. He carefully looked at the ten luminous pearls above his head, and then turned his eyes to the stone walls on both sides.

"Did you find anything?" The ancestor of the Chen family asked him anxiously. He has been down to the secret path for so long and still found nothing. His temper is going to go crazy.

Zhu Liang ignored him and continued to observe the stone wall carefully. He had an intuition in his heart that he must find something here.

Suddenly Zhu Liang's eyes lit up, and he found that the colors on both sides of a stone wall in front of him were different.One side is milky white and the other is light yellow. These two colors are similar. If it weren't for his sharp eyesight, he wouldn't be able to spot it. Could this stone wall hide a mechanism?

Zhu Liang went up to look carefully, and he found that the intersection of the two colors showed a golden color. Looking carefully at the golden edge, there were actually simple patterns painted on it. These patterns are all ancient decorative textures, unique The difference is that there is a light purple circular pattern in the middle, which is very light and cannot be seen casually.

Zhu Liang looked at this special circular pattern, put his hand lightly on it and pressed it, but there was no response, and he put his palm on the circular pattern again, but there was no response.Strange, isn't the only difference here the mechanism?Zhu Liang frowned and thought.

"Zhu Liang, try putting a drop of blood on it." The ancestor of the Chen family suddenly said, "Drop blood? Will the mechanism be activated by dripping blood?"

"Anyway, you can try it, it would be better if it doesn't work." The ancestor of the Chen family looked at him with a dark smile.

"Why don't you use your blood test?" Zhu Liang asked angrily, "I'm afraid of pain!" The ancestor of the Chen family replied without thinking.

Depend on!I don't feel pain!Zhu Liang was too lazy to argue with him, bit the skin of his finger and dripped blood on the mysterious circular pattern.

A miracle happened!Just as Zhu Liang's blood dripped onto the circular pattern, the circular pattern trembled as if alive!Zhu Liang's blood rotated slowly and fast along the veins on the circular pattern until the blood filled the veins and did not move.

All of a sudden, the blood-filled circles shone brightly, shooting out ten circles of light corresponding to the light from the ten night pearls on the stone wall!The rays of light mingled and merged, and several rays of light then merged into a large beam of light and shot directly at the circular pattern!

"Boom"!The circular pattern was exploded, and the entire stone wall shook, Zhu Liang and the ancestors of the Chen family hurriedly retreated, shaking the mountain for a while!It took a long time to regain calm.

When the dust cleared, Zhu Liang and the ancestors of the Chen family stepped forward to look, and the blasted stone wall unexpectedly revealed a secret room!The two looked at each other and walked in cautiously.

The structure of this secret room is simple, and the surrounding walls are the same stone walls as the outside. There is only one big stone inside, and a red sandalwood box is placed on the stone.

Zhu Liang picked up the box and looked at it. The box was made of red sandalwood, and it was exquisitely carved with dragons and phoenixes. In ancient times, this was not an item that ordinary people could afford. There is no lock on the silk box seam!

How to open this?He wanted to use brute force to open it, but he didn't know what was in the box and was worried that it would be destroyed. He looked up and saw the ancestor of the Chen family looking at him with a half-smile.

Depend on!no?Want me to bleed again?Zhu Liang trembled in his heart!The mud medium is looking for clues and nothing else, just ask him to donate blood!
Zhu Liang had to bite his finger and drip blood on the box again, and the miracle happened again!The red sandalwood box absorbed Zhu Liang's blood, and then the wood softened, as if it had been scalded by Zhu Liang's blood.The box was torn open to reveal a bundle of bundled paper. Zhu Liang picked up the bundle of paper and unwrapped the outer bundle to unfold the bundle of paper and looked at it.

"My descendants, when you read this letter, you should bear in mind that people must not be greedy. Once you get greedy, you will never be able to recover!" These few warning words were written at the beginning of these papers, and the following words were written below. The name of the letter is obviously Zhu Liang's ancestor, Zhu Youqing, a civil servant during the Chongzhen period of the Ming Dynasty!

Zhu Liang was a little dazed when he saw the elegant calligraphy. Could it be that the matter of the treasure has something to do with his old Zhu family?This Zhu Youqing seems to be an insider.

He put his mind away and looked down carefully. There was a lot of content behind the warning, to the effect that his ancestor was really the insider of this treasure!According to the content of the letter, Zhu Liang's mind emerged the scene at that time.

At the end of the Ming Dynasty, due to the stupidity of several emperors, the society at the end of the Ming Dynasty was in a more corrupt period. Emperor Chongzhen was determined but unable to correct these backlogs of disadvantages.At this time, a rebel team rose up from the people, headed by Li Zicheng, who is known as the King of Chuang.King Chuang rebelled, and the oppressed people responded one after another. Coupled with the threat of the Qing army, Emperor Chongzhen couldn't bear it under heavy pressure and hanged himself.

King Chuang invaded the palace of the Ming Dynasty and robbed a large number of royal treasures. Under such circumstances, Zhu Youqing, a civil servant, surrendered and defected to Li Zicheng.Li Zicheng was okay with these small officials who surrendered, and he was also appointed as an official, and followed him to the east and west.

Later, when Li Zicheng was seriously injured by the Qing army, Li Zicheng took out the treasure map hidden on his body. It was a drawing made of parchment, which showed the treasures that Li Zicheng looted from the Ming Dynasty palace, because these treasures There are too many treasures, and it is not convenient for him to carry them with him when he marches and fights, so he secretly hides the treasures for later use.

Now Li Zicheng obviously didn't expect that he would be defeated by the Qing army and be injured so badly. Those who followed him died and fled. Only the nine guards and the civil official Zhu Youqing were left by his side.

At that time, Zhu Youqing didn't want to run for his life, but he had just defected to Li Zicheng, and he hadn't thought about leaving the coach to run away. He didn't expect that his decision would involve him in a shocking secret!
