Grave Robber: Beginnings Fusion Hydra Cypress

In the young man's memory, this place was originally a place where immortals lived.

Unexpectedly, it became what it is now.

What exactly caused the drying up of the Fountain of Youth?

With these questions, everyone followed the man to the entrance of the cave.

Although half of the cave collapsed, it was still more than ten meters high and seven or eight meters wide.

Looking inside, the cave was pitch black, and a foul smell drifted out with the wind.

Ji Changsheng's mind moved, and he conjured up several large flashlights and distributed them to everyone.

The man was not surprised to see this.

Turning on the flashlight, everyone walked into the cave together under the leadership of the man.

After walking hundreds of meters inside, the cave became much wider.

People came to a flat land, about a thousand square meters, with several small caves around it.

In the young man's memory, this was originally a place for young people to practice martial arts, but now it is full of rocks and weeds.

The small holes around led to several stone chambers, which were the residences of the young man, Ah Chun, the old man, and a warehouse for storing things.

The man looked at the young man and said.

"Let's go and see where we lived in the past."

After that, he walked towards one of the small holes.

The three followed closely, went into the cave, walked a few dozen meters, and came to a circular cave.

The cave is about two hundred square meters. Although it is dilapidated, you can still see what it looked like in the past.

A huge stone bed covered with dust, there are also several stone benches, and a stone table.

There are several broken wooden cabinets standing against the wall.

The young man was reminded of people by the things, as if he was Zhang Qiling back then, returning to his home.

After thinking about it, he walked to the wooden cabinet, brushed off the dust, and opened the cabinet door.

The things in the cabinet had long been rotten into a pile of ashes, and it could only be vaguely seen that they were some ancient books and clothes.

The young man was a little disappointed and reached out to look for something in the ashes.

Unfortunately, he didn't find anything in the end.

At this time, the man pointed to a wall and said.

"What you are looking for is here."

Everyone looked at the place he pointed, and saw a painting hanging on the wall.

The young man walked closer and his eyes lit up.

"It turned out to be here!"

The head of the Zhang family handed down six ancient paintings, five of which were in Ji Changsheng's hands, and the last one was missing.

I didn't expect this painting to be here!

The young man carefully took down the scroll, spread it flat on the stone table, and gently brushed off the dust.

The ancient painting finally revealed its true appearance.

Everyone stepped forward and took a look, and they were all stunned.

The ancient painting has experienced thousands of years of baptism, and its original color has long faded. All the details are unrecognizable, leaving only some vague outlines.

These outlines are like children's graffiti, and you can't see anything at all.

Even the most powerful treasure appraiser in the world can't recognize the original appearance of this painting.

The young man couldn't help but secretly say it was a pity that the Zhang family had been looking for ancient paintings for thousands of years, but in the end it was all in vain.

Seeing this, Ji Changsheng comforted him.

"The moon waxes and wanes, and there is nothing perfect in the world. This is God's will."

The young man nodded, indicating that he was fine.

In fact, after experiencing so many events, the young man's state of mind has long been open-minded and he doesn't care so much about the results.

He carefully put away the fragments. Although it has decayed, it is an antique after all, so keep it as a souvenir.

The man saw it, but didn't say anything, just turned and walked out.

"Go somewhere else."

The crowd followed him to two other caves, where Achun and the old man lived.

It was almost the same as the cave of the young man, except for some simple furniture, there was nothing surprising.

Due to the erosion of time, the cave no longer looked like it did in the past.

Tens of thousands of ancient books have all turned into ashes.

After a circle, almost nothing was found.

The young man finally couldn't help asking.

"What about the Fountain of Youth?"

In fact, the most important thing in this cave is the Fountain of Youth!

Everything that happened back then was directly related to the Fountain of Youth.

After a slight hesitation, the man asked a strange question.

"Are you ready?"

Ji Changsheng and his party came here from afar just to find the secret of the Fountain of Youth, and they were obviously well prepared.

This question seemed very redundant.

The three of them nodded together, thinking that the man's words seemed to have other meanings, but they didn't know what they really meant.

The man nodded.

"Okay, then follow me."

With strong curiosity, everyone went into one of the caves.

After walking a few hundred meters along the cave entrance, a light appeared in front of them.

It didn't look like moonlight, but a hazy fluorescence.

But no one has lived here for a long time, where did the light come from?

When everyone passed through the cave entrance and came to the light source, the scene in front of them was jaw-dropping.

The young man couldn't help but stand there in a daze. This was completely different from the scene in his memory!

"What... is this?!"

Ji Changsheng's expression moved slightly, but he was not too surprised. He seemed to have expected it to be like this.

It was a cave with an area of ​​more than 3,000 square meters.

Rather than a cave, it was more like a basement.

Because the cave was a standard circle, it was obviously dug out by humans.

The surrounding walls were very flat, and were coated with a layer of luminous material, which emitted a faint fluorescence and illuminated the entire cave.

There is a circular pool in the center of the cave, with a diameter of about ten meters, and it is unknown how deep it is.

There are many square platforms around the pool, which are covered with dust and look like laboratory control consoles!

There are dozens of square pillars around these platforms, shining with metallic luster.

The young man walked forward and reached out to wipe the dust off the platform, revealing rows of neat buttons and a display screen.

"This...?!"

It is really a control console!

Ji Changsheng said with a look of "as expected".

"If I guess correctly, this should be a secret laboratory of the Zhang family, used to study prehistoric civilization."

"Grandpa, am I right?"

The man nodded, not surprised at all.

"That's right."

Ji Changsheng did not believe that there was really a fairy tale fountain of youth in the world. Even if there was, it was artificially created.

Combined with the advanced scientific and technological strength of the Zhang family, it was easy to guess this result.

But what made him curious was that if this was the Zhang family's laboratory, who were the old man and Achun?

The man seemed to have guessed the question in his heart, and smiled softly without waiting for Ji Changsheng to ask.

"At this point, there is no need for me to hide it."

"I was expelled from the Zhang family and deprived of my surname, so I have no name."

After saying that, he added another sentence.

"I am a traitor in their eyes."

The young man was shocked. He never thought that the old man's true identity was actually a traitor to the Zhang family!
