Chapter 153: When did you start to have the illusion that I didn’t use Mirror Flowers and Water Moon?

"Eh? Brother Jie? Don't you feel disgusted?"

Acheng, who vomited for a while, wiped his mouth and looked at Luo Zihang curiously.

"Um……"

Luo Zihang pondered for a moment, and finally said truthfully: "I didn't drink."

As soon as these words came out, everyone, including Professor Tian, ​​glared at Luo Zihang.

At first, everyone thought they were sharing the same difficulties, but in the end, a fish slipped through the net. It is normal for people to feel unbalanced.

Fortunately, Luo Zihang had already thought of an excuse, and this excuse was very legitimate——

"Drinking too much water will affect your movements. I just drank all the water in the water bottle just in case. I originally planned to wait for you to recover and drink more to quench your thirst."

Luo Zihang shrugged and explained half-truthfully.

Hearing Luo Zihang say this, everyone's eyes softened a lot...

Originally, they had no intention of blaming Luo Zihang. Before, they were just temporarily angry because of the imbalance in their hearts. Now that Luo Zihang has given such a legitimate reason, it would be a bit ungrateful to blame him again.

It's just that although they no longer glare at Luo Zihang, when they look at him, their eyes are still quite resentful. After all, it is human nature not to worry about the scarcity but the inequality. If possible, they still hope that Luo Zihang can also try it.

Taste the bath water of the rats in this pool.

"Ahem..." Luo Zihang, who felt uncomfortable being stared at by eight eyes, cleared his throat and decisively began to divert their attention, "The water here is undrinkable. Let's find other water sources.

"

After saying that, he picked up his backpack and continued walking deeper into the cave.

Even if Luo Zihang doesn't know the plot now, he is not worried about finding other water sources, because deep in the cave, there is still the sound of gurgling water. The sound of running water they heard before did not originally come from the area in front of them.

Emitted from the small lake with almost no flow.

Although the others have no desire to drink water in a short period of time, they really don't want to stay in this "sad place" any longer. In addition, fresh water still needs to be replenished, so they naturally won't object. They all stink.

He opened his face and followed Luo Zihang.

The group of people walked along the road, and as they walked the water vapor grew larger and the walls became more and more humid.

On both sides of the passage in this cave, there are many manually dug stone chambers, all of which are equipped with iron bars and large locks. There are many torture instruments inside. It seems that this was originally a prison used to hold prisoners.

But now it has become a rat nest, and the ground is dark and full of rat droppings...

It was easy for the four people to associate themselves with the "bath water", so from time to time there would be a sound of retching behind Luo Zihang.

Walking several hundred meters into the passage in the cave, I finally saw a fast-flowing underground river across the entrance of the cave. The river was not only large in flow, but also very deep.

The most important thing is that with such a fast river, not to mention that mice can't go down to take a bath. Even if they can go down, it won't make Luo Zihang and others resist... If there is any dirt, it will have been washed away by the subsequent river water.

Almost exhausted.

In addition, in the middle of the underground river, there is a black stone bridge connecting it. The bridge is also made of black stones from the Zagrama Mountain and flies over the turbulent water of the underground river.

Luo Zihang ignored the bridge and took two hurried steps to the river. He picked up the river water and drank it happily. However, he did not drink until his stomach was bloated like Acheng and the others before. Instead, he stopped after he felt that it was about the same.

He got down and filled up all the empty water bottles he had.

Although Acheng and the others were not in the mood to drink water, they also filled up the water bottles they carried... This was the main purpose of their trip.

After replenishing the fresh water, Luo Zihang looked across the river.

There is another large cave on the other side of the river. There is a thousand-pound gate in front of the cave. It is half-suspended with a large iron chain as thick as a human arm. There is also a huge stone underneath. At first glance, it is not an ordinary place...

Anyway, Professor Tian and Monica will definitely not miss it.

With this thought, Luo Zihang turned to look at the two of them.

Sure enough, Professor Tian said excitedly: "It was previously discovered that the stone door of the underground palace was blown open. Someone must have come in. The gate is so thick and is at the deepest point on the third floor of the underground palace. It is very possible that it is inside

This is the resting place of Queen Jingjue.”

After a pause, he said firmly: "Now that the gate has been opened, it is very likely that it was done by the previous wave of people. I have to go and see if the ancient tomb of Queen Jingjue has been damaged.

When it comes to theft and vandalism, if I don't take a look at it, I won't die in peace. If these old bones are buried inside, it will be considered a worthy death."

Then he glanced at the others, and said in a slower tone: "I am so old, I don't care about anything, but you kids are still young, so don't go. I can go alone."

How should I put it? Although Professor Tian habitually seeks death, he also knows that he should not harm other people...

But the problem is, in this case, how could they let Professor Tian take risks alone? Not to mention that there is Monica among them who wants to find her father.

"Of course I will go too." Monica's choice did not go beyond Luo Zihang's expectations. She said lightly but firmly.

The two most important people in the team have said this. What else can Luo Zihang and the others do? They can only risk their lives to accompany the gentleman.

So they continued to line up in a column with Luo Zihang at the head and Acheng at the rear, passed the black bridge, and then carefully got into the cave from under the gate.

Behind the gate was a long and narrow slope downwards. The slope was extremely steep. Everyone did not dare to be careless and followed Luo Zihang closely.

"Have you noticed that there are no traces of mice here?"

After advancing for a while, Monica, who had been observing the surrounding environment with a flashlight, suddenly spoke.

Only then did the others realize that there were traces of rats everywhere in the previous cave, but not to mention rats here, not even a particle of rat droppings could be seen.

"If this is the nest of those strange snakes, or there are other dangerous things, then it is normal for the rats not to come here." Luo Zihang, who was walking at the front, said calmly, and then tried to persuade everyone to go back again, "

So, do you still want to move on?"

"Of course!"×2

Professor Monica Wada answered without hesitation.

Luo Zihang shrugged. He didn't have high hopes at first.

However, after what he said, the others acted more cautiously, and the team's movement speed also became slower as a result.

The group of people walked for a long time and finally came to the end of the ramp.

At the end is a platform with hundreds of giant-eyed stone statues standing on it. There are steep mountain walls on both sides of the platform. Looking up, you can't see the top of your head, it's all pitch black.

In front of the platform is a huge underground cavity, and you can't tell how big it is.

Everyone searched the platform for a while, and soon found a relatively modern rope ladder on the edge of the platform. It seemed that it was probably left by the group of people who blew up the stone door.

Monica took advantage of the situation and threw a few cold fireworks downwards. Under the illumination of the fireworks, everyone discovered that the drop below was not big, only about thirty meters. Under the platform, there was a large flat land with piles of piles on the ground.

There are mountains of various gold and silver vessels, pearls, gems, and ancient chalcedony.

"Great! It seems that the group of tomb robbers did not succeed!" Professor Tian clapped his hands happily and said, and then he said very seriously to Luo Zihang and others: "Since they failed to take away these treasures, it means that most of the treasures below are

Is there any danger? Please consider carefully whether you want to go out with me to take the risk."

So, you are so sober, why do you behave like a Gryffindor?

Luo Zihang was very helpless, but he also knew that they would never give up if they didn't let these two scammers go down, so he didn't bother to persuade them anymore, and just took out their own rope ladder and put it down.

The five people went down to the platform without any accident. In addition to the piles of treasures, there were also many bronze lampstands made to look like lamp slaves.

Professor Tian and Junior Zhang are very excited. Every object here is worthy of careful study for them.

Monica was equally excited when she saw these things. She was influenced by her family and is also very interested in antiques and other things.

Acheng was equally excited, but his excitement was different from the other three. Having had the experience of robbing a tomb, he was now more concerned about the economic value of these treasures, rather than the research value and appreciation value.

But as a graduate of the Department of Archeology, he was able to suppress his greed and did not sneak a few of them into his backpack when he started to play with these antiques.

After a few people were excited for a while, they still did not forget the main purpose of coming down - to find the coffin of Queen Jingjue.

At Professor Tian's urging, Junior Zhang took out a high-power searchlight from his backpack.

This kind of searchlight is not only extremely bright, but also illuminates a very long distance. The only drawback is that it consumes too much power. The batteries they carry do not last long, so they have never been willing to use it before.

But now that we have reached the final destination, there is naturally nothing to be reluctant to part with. Even in order to reduce the load, most of them will be thrown here after use.

After the searchlight was installed, everyone quickly used its light to find a bottomless round hole. This hole also appeared in the previous murals of the Black Tower. Professor Tian guessed that this hole was probably a "ghost cave"

"The origin of this is also the "imaginary number space" mentioned by Monica.

Of course, whether the big hole in front of them is a "ghost cave" or an "imaginary number space" or something else is not the most important thing to Professor Tian and others.

What is really important is that in the middle of this large hole, there is a thin and long stone beam hanging. The stone beam extends from the platform where they are standing, and visually extends to the center of the large hole.

At the end of the stone beam, there is a huge piece of wood. This piece of wood is more than two meters in diameter. It is like a section of the trunk of a big tree. This section has been cut directly without any processing, and the branches on the trunk are still intact.

There are even many green leaves growing here.

There are more than a dozen large iron chains tied to the log trunk, connected to the stone beams, and fixing the giant tree to the ground.

In addition, right above the giant tree, there is a huge green flower growing, which is the corpse-scented konjac that can cause hallucinations. Its branches and vines together with the large iron chain tightly wrap the piece of wood.

When everyone is close to the edge of the platform, they can still smell a faint fragrance.

After Professor Tian saw these two plants, he immediately started explaining them to everyone.

Luo Zihang on the side curled his lips. Although he also knew that this was the setting of a novel, Professor Tian had always insisted on believing in science and not feudal superstition, but now he was introducing "Kunlun Sacred Tree" and "Corpse Scent Konjac" which were obviously unscientific.
