Fortunately, I didn't lean out completely like she did, so my situation is relatively better.

I was able to retract my body, and using my own strength, I grabbed Liang Yue's leg and pulled her back from above the stone cauldron.

I pulled Liang Yue back and each rode on the edge of the stone tripod.Liang Yue's face was pale, her forehead was covered with sweat, and she kept panting.

"It's dangerous. Are you okay?" I still felt a wave of fear, and asked with lingering fear.

Liang Yue shook her head, pointed to the inside of the stone cauldron and said, "There is a strong suction under there, which made me speechless. Fortunately, you came in time. I'm afraid I won't be able to hold on any longer. Do you know what happened to Old Qu?"

"Old Qu, are you there? Can you hear me?" I folded my hands into a horn and shouted into the stone tripod.

No one responded, but another echo echoed.

Obviously, the space inside the stone tripod is also very large, even more empty, otherwise the echo would not be so serious.

"Stop shouting, if the inside of this stone tripod is empty, it will fall from such a high distance..." Liang Yue said sadly.

Liang Yue didn't finish her sentence, but I understood the meaning.According to the normal logic, if the stone tripod fell from here, it would be good to save his life.As far as Lao Qu's body is concerned, he is lucky if he doesn't fall apart.

I was also sad for a while, Lao Qu is afraid that this time there will be more than good luck.But this is not the time to be sad. After I pulled Liang Yue back, I found that those fire silkworms were still climbing up the stone tripod.

Liang Yue and I seemed to have climbed to the top of the mountain, but facing the cliff, the mountain continued to run up and chase the soldiers.

This is completely a dead end.

Soon, a large area of ​​fire silkworms climbed up from below and gathered on the top of the stone tripod from all directions.

Below our line of sight, all we see are these crimson fire silkworms.

Liang Yue and I used wooden swords to pick off a lot of fire silkworms, but it still didn't help the whole situation.

In just a few minutes, except where Liang Yue and I were, the entire cauldron was already covered with silkworms.

The goal of those fire silkworms was also very clear, they came after me and Liang Yue.

Chapter 1048

Looking at those fire silkworms, my mind is also in a mess. With Liang Yue and I's skill, even if we deal with two zombies, we won't be in such a situation.

But in the face of these fleshy and overwhelming poisonous insects, he was a little helpless.

Liang Yue and I kept picking those fire silkworms with our swords, and at the same time, we were forced to get smaller and smaller by those poisonous insects.

The two of us are almost close to each other, and in a few minutes, it is estimated that fire silkworms will break through our defense line and climb onto us.

Even though my body has a certain resistance to poison, according to what Qu Kangcheng said, the fire silkworm's toxin will accumulate in my body, and when it accumulates to a certain extent, it will spread rapidly.Even I will be poisoned by then, and Liang Yue is even more unable to resist.

It can be said that Liang Yue and I are facing an extremely dangerous situation at this time.

At this moment, I suddenly discovered an extremely strange phenomenon.

That is, these fire silkworms climbed up from below, but they were limited to the outer wall of the stone tripod, and at most they climbed to the edge above the stone tripod.But none of the fire silkworms climbed to the inner wall of the stone tripod.

Could it be that these fire silkworms also know that there is a suction force under the stone cauldron, so they dare not go inside?

Or is there something in it that makes these fire silkworms afraid.

"Is...is there anyone?" At this moment, I suddenly heard a faint cry from under the stone cauldron.

I was taken aback, it sounded like Qu Kangcheng's voice.

Liang Yue and I looked at each other, and the voice came out again, and it was indeed Qu Kangcheng who was shouting.

"Old Qu, are you alright?" I hastily shouted down.

"It's okay...Look what I found..." Qu Kangcheng's voice came intermittently.

To be honest, when Liang Yue and I thought about it, Qu Kangcheng was [-]% dead when he fell off the stone tripod.Before I had time to think about it, I was in danger.Who knew that Lao Qu's voice could be heard, that is to say, he fell from such a high place, but nothing happened?This is what surprised me the most.

So, facing the flocking fire silkworms, I suddenly had an idea.I glanced at Liang Yue and asked, "Liang Yue, do you want to fight?"

Liang Yue Bingxue is smart, seeing me staring at the inside of the stone cauldron, she immediately understood what I meant.

She looked calm, nodded firmly, and smiled slightly: "Li Yang, as long as we are still together..."

As she spoke, she held out a hand to me.

I also reached out to hold her little hand, clenched it tightly, and nodded.

At this moment, I seem to be full of strength.I glanced back at the fire silkworms that had already come up, gritted my teeth, and signaled to Liang Yue at the same time.

We both leaned from the edge of the stone tripod and fell towards the middle of the tripod.

Liang Yue and I have always held hands tightly, and I never thought that such a romantic plot would be interpreted by us in an act that seemed to be about to die.

As a result, when we jumped from the mouth of the tripod, we lost a lot of tragic colors.

We fell from the mouth of the tripod, and I only felt the wind whistling past my ears.At the same time, at the bottom of the cauldron, the huge suction force was guiding Liang Yuedao and me in the same direction.

In other words, the whereabouts of Liang Yue and I did not feel like free fall.I only felt that my body was floating, and the speed of descent was much slower than expected.

At the beginning, I closed my eyes.

Halfway through the fall, I opened my eyes and found that Liang Yue and I were being lifted by a magical wind and falling inside the tripod.

And my headlight is still on, and the beam of light follows the rotation of my body, and it also searches around inside the cauldron.

I found that the space inside this tripod is really big, and it is filled with a kind of white mist.

The mist drifted past my eyes, colorless and odorless.

The processes I have described actually happened in a very short time.Liang Yue and I jumped from the top, and within ten seconds, I felt my body fall to the ground.

Because of that strange wind, Liang Yue and I should not have suffered much damage.Even so, our legs were numb when we landed on the ground, and we hit the ground with one buttocks, and we didn't recover for a long time.

I checked my body and it seemed that there was really no damage.And those fire silkworms really didn't crawl down here.This bet we made should have won temporarily.

Until then, Liang Yue and I have not let go of our hands, and are still tightly intertwined.

"Liang Yue, how are you?" I asked.

Liang Yue gently pulled her hand out of my hand, and responded in a low voice: "I'm fine, but my legs are a little numb."

I went up to her, stretched out my hand next to her, and said, "I'll rub it for you..."

Who knew that as soon as I touched Liang Yue's soft body with my hand, I felt pain on my face as soon as I exerted force.

"Oh hooligan, where are you touching?" Liang Yue scolded angrily, and slapped him.

Although this slap was not heavy, it gave me a shock, and I said angrily, "You... who cares to touch you, treats you like a donkey with good intentions... I thought you had changed your personality, who knows..."

"Who knows what's wrong? What do you mean?" Liang Yue rushed up to question without giving up.

"Oh, can you two flirt and find another place? Is there anyone here? Do you think I don't exist?"

At this time, Qu Kangcheng's voice came from a corner, and he sounded a little weak.

"Old song?"

Liang Yue and I hurriedly turned around to look for Lao Qu. Relying on the light of the headlamp, I found Qu Kangcheng leaning to one side, his leg seemed to be hurt a little, and he was covering it with his hands.

"Old Qu, are you injured?" I ran over and asked.I don't know if it's because we have practiced internal strength, and the blood vessels seem to recover much faster than ordinary people. Just now, the legs were still numb, but after a while, they returned to normal and completely unobstructed.

Qu Kangcheng staggered, stood up forcefully from the ground, sighed and said: "I'm old, my arms and legs don't work anymore, I fell down. When I fell down, my body bumped. I might have fainted at that time, but fortunately I woke up." Come here. Just now I saw you were still up there, so I yelled."

"Then how do you feel now?"

Qu Kangcheng shook his head: "Don't worry, my old life is still alive, but my legs and feet hurt a little."

I reckon that when Qu Kangcheng came down, like Liang Yue and me, there must have been a gust of wind supporting him.It's just that his body is weak, and his ability to control his balance is not good enough, so the injuries he suffered when he fell were heavier than ours.And he was in a coma for a while at the time, so when Liang Yue and I called him on the platform for the first time, we didn't get any response from him.Then he woke up by himself, and we heard his cry.

Chapter 1049

Although Lao Qu was injured a bit, this is the best result we can accept.

After avoiding the harassment of those fire silkworms, the three of us are temporarily safe.

"It's so strange, where did the wind come from? Why did it feel like the wind disappeared when I got down there?" Liang Yue looked around in confusion.Want to find the source of that strange wind that is holding us up.

I also looked up when I heard the sound, and now my eyes have adapted to this dark environment.You can see the general structure of the entire stone tripod.

I saw that the interior of this stone tripod is really spacious.Standing here is similar to standing in the main hall of a certain palace.

A trace of mist lingered in the entire space of Shi Ding.And through the mist, I vaguely saw a few bright holes appearing on the wall of the stone tripod.

Those holes are not all round, but round and square, and some of them have very special shapes, which are distributed on the surrounding walls at random heights, and the positions are extremely irregular, and the light shines from the holes. It was very clear in the fog.

These holes appear on the wall, at first glance it looks like a formation.After watching for a long time, those holes seem to move.

Qu Kangcheng pointed to those holes and said, "Did you see it? If I'm not mistaken, the wind supporting our bodies is blown out of those holes."

"No... no way? This is too amazing. Where does the wind come from? The wind that can support us is useless if it is weak. The wind blowing out of these holes can That much strength?" I looked at the holes and doubted Qu Kangcheng's judgment.

This place is different from the outside, relatively speaking, it is a closed space.We jump down from above, counting the influence of the acceleration of gravity, the speed will be very fast and the force will be great.

Just relying on the wind blowing out of these holes, we can be carried safely to the ground, which sounds a bit unbelievable.

Qu Kangcheng nodded, and then continued: "I also think it's a bit incredible. But... I can't think of other possibilities. I think the person who built this stone tripod, considering this, specially designed these holes, it should be used Air convection and other principles. You must know that the power of nature is huge. Once it is used, it may contain a huge amount of physical energy. It is a pity that I know very little about the principles of physics, so I can only consider these gone."

"The principle of convection? People 200 years ago knew the principle of convection?" I asked.

Qu Kangcheng shook his head and said, "I'm just giving an example. Maybe this phenomenon existed at that time, but it's not called convection, and it may be other physical principles. So what is the principle? We need to find out after we go out. Expert explanation. In short, we must not underestimate the wisdom of the ancients..."

At this time, Liang Yue said: "Don't talk about this, what principle they use doesn't seem to have anything to do with us. I remember Lao Qu, what did you shout just now, what did you want us to see?"

Qu Kangcheng slapped his head: "That's right, look at my head, I may have lost my mind. Come with me and have a look, this is our great discovery..."

When Qu Kangcheng mentioned this, he was so excited that he pulled and dragged me and Liang Yue limpingly towards the middle of the stone tripod.

Since we descended with the wind, we still have all the equipment on our backs.Qu Kangcheng should have checked the environment below before we got down.He must have discovered something too.

At this time, Qu Kangcheng held a torch and led Liang Yue and me to the middle.With the light of the torch, I found a high platform in the center of the stone tripod.

Said to be a high platform, it is not too high, but it is about one meter above the ground.

We approached the high platform, and I immediately noticed something unusual.That is, there are railings around the high platform, and there are two steps on each side.

In the middle of the railing of the high platform, there is a sarcophagus.

The size of the sarcophagus is much larger than the nine mouths seen outside the stone tripod.And the texture is as smooth as jade, with dark patterns carved on it.

Another difference from the sarcophagus outside is that the lid of this coffin is open.The coffin lid stood aside.

We don't know what was in that coffin at this time.But what attracted my attention was not the sarcophagus and the high platform.It's the railings on the high platform.

I was very impressed with the railings, because the railings here are just like the railings on the Kunzhou Bridge.

The same shape of the watchtower is carved with several small stone lions of different shapes.

Even the size of the railing seems to match the railing of the bridge.When you see these railings, you don't have to step forward to take a closer look. You can also conclude that there must be an inevitable connection between them.

But Qu Kangcheng didn't pay much attention to these railings, he wanted us to see inside the sarcophagus.

Qu Kangcheng stepped up the stone steps, and through the railings, he pointed the torch at the sarcophagus and greeted us: "Come and see, this is definitely a great discovery."

The light from the torch shone on Qu Kangcheng's face, making his face glow red.

I'm also very curious, what is it that can make Lao Qu excited like this.

Liang Yue and I also stepped up the stone steps and looked inside the sarcophagus.

The sarcophagus looked huge from the outside, but it was only after seeing the inside that it was a coffin.Inside the coffin is a more detailed sarcophagus.

The workmanship of the sarcophagus inside is more refined, and the light from Lao Qu's torch shines on the sarcophagus, reflecting streaks of dark light.

But my eyes only stayed on the sarcophagus for a while, and then shifted to the things inside the coffin.

Because that thing is so eye-catching that it can directly attract people's eyes unconsciously.

The one lying in the coffin is, without accident, alone.

It's just that this person is not wearing ordinary clothes, but a jade dress studded with jade pieces.Between each piece of jade, there is also a gold thread.The dark green jade pieces, probably due to the age, look a bit dark in color.But because of the fineness of the jade, even those who don't know how to do it can't help but praise it.

"Golden Jade Clothes?" Liang Yue and I uttered at the same time when we saw this thing.

Even people who don't know much about Chinese history should know about such cultural relics as golden jade clothes.The most famous one should be the one worn by Liu Sheng, King Jing of Zhongshan in the Western Han Dynasty in Mancheng, Hebei Province.

Chapter 1050 Red Centipede

"That's right. This is indeed a golden jade garment, but generally speaking, the jade garments unearthed in our country are generally from the Han Dynasty. Because the people of the Han Dynasty believed that jade was the "elite of the mountains" and placed gold and jade in the nine orifices of people. , people's essence will not leak out, so that the bones will not rot, so that they can be reborn in the next life. However, this kind of golden jade clothes appeared in the underground palace of the Qing Dynasty. This can not but be said to be a great discovery. It is also of great significance to our study of Qing Dynasty culture."

Qu Kangcheng explained to us from the side.
