Traveling through ancient times as a hunter

In fact, Cheng Duo had been thinking about the underground palace for a long time. It was because he wanted to take care of his body before, but he was busy getting married later, so he couldn't take it out.

Now that the marriage is over, and the daughter-in-law is in his arms, he has the idea of ​​going to the mountains again.

Cheng Duo didn't want to wait until autumn and winter, when the field was busy, the wind in the mountains in winter could make people's bones ache, and the wild animals were more ferocious than usual.

Moreover, he took Brother Yong with him, and he could still talk about honeymoon trips in summer. When the weather got cold, he was just asking for trouble.

It just so happened that he spent a lot of food in the space in order to get married.After a brief discussion between Cheng Duo and Brother Yong, they steamed two large pots of steamed buns together, and fried several pots of hot dishes and put them in the space. If there is no way to light the fire, they can be eaten out.

Before leaving, Brother Yong thought about the horses and chickens at home, so he went to Shanwazi's house again and asked him to take time to take care of them.

Shanwazi saw Yong Geer wearing a majestic leather wristband and belt, and carrying an iron and wood longbow on his back, and he couldn't move his eyes enviously.He still wanted to introduce himself, but Brother Yong and the others were going to explore the underground palace. It was hard to say whether it was dangerous or not, and Cheng Duo's space could not be exposed... So Brother Yong could only promise Shan Wazi that if he caught a pheasant or a rabbit, It was possible to give him one, so Shanwazi gave up.

Unlike the last time when he escaped in embarrassment, Brother Yong felt familiar with everything he saw when he entered the mountain. Passing by the pool where the two stayed overnight, he recognized it at a glance: "It turns out that this place is not too far from the village. Last time we walked for three full hours!"

Cheng Duo laughed, of course, last time he had to rely on Brother Yong to support him, moving and stopping, so why not take three hours out of an hour's journey?

This time the two of them went into battle lightly, and they arrived at the entrance of the underground palace before the sun set. Cheng Duo also took the time to instruct Brother Yong to shoot a wild goose.

So the dinner for the two became this wild goose, which was stripped of its fur and roasted on the fire until it was burnt brown. Beside the fire was a cheerful and busy companion, against the gradually darkening night, there was a kind of smokey happiness.

Cheng Duo looked at it with emotion for a while, then took out another clean wooden basin, poured half a bucket of water into it, and called Brother Yong: "Come and wash your hands and face."

Brother Yong came over obediently. Although his face was covered with sweat from the fire, his eyes were particularly bright. Cheng Duo couldn't help kissing him on the lips: "Is that so happy?"

"Ok!"

Brother Yong didn't know why, although it wasn't the first time he spent the night outside with Cheng Duo, but this time he was very excited.

Cheng Duo knew why, this time they were famous and important, Brother Yong had no scruples, and he had been taught to be a good and obedient brother all along, and he probably rarely spent the night outside.

This is like a child who has never spent the night outside, suddenly camping in the open air...

The two of them ate and drank enough, and Brother Yong burned a circle of wormwood that had been prepared earlier to prevent mosquitoes nearby, and then lay down with Cheng Duo to rest.

As the saying goes, Bu Nuan Si Na Han, because the sleeping pad is just big enough to squeeze the two of them, Brother Yong felt strange after a while: "Cheng, Brother Cheng... If you want, I can..."

Although the night sky is above the head, there is no cover, but it is the middle of the night, and it is deep in the mountains and old forests, so no one should come, right?

"Cough, it's okay, go to sleep." Cheng Duo coughed lightly, a little embarrassed.Last night he considered that he was going on a journey today, so he never met Brother Yong. They were newlyweds, and when he was upright and young, the one who hugged his wife and didn't respond was the eunuch.

This time, Brother Yong didn't obey his obedience, he was about to get up when he moved.

Cheng Duo held him down: "Good boy, sleep."

Brother Yong couldn't move, so he just leaned over and kissed him.It was too dark at first, so he only kissed his chin, and then slowly moved to his lips...

Cheng Duo had no choice but to kiss his daughter-in-law with his head sideways for a while, then moved away slightly, his Adam's apple moved, and his deep voice seemed a little depressed in the dark night: "Aren't you tired?"

"Not tired."

It's no wonder he isn't tired after walking for a day, but in this situation, if he doesn't do something, he won't be able to sleep.

Cheng Duo took Brother Yong's hand and went all the way down...

"""

The next day, the two got up refreshed and prepared, then went down to the underground palace with torches along the passage on the ground.

It was still the same place, not even the two stone statues at the entrance of the underground palace had changed.

Cheng Duo studied the closed stone door for a while, and found that there was a stone plate on the door. The orientation on the stone plate seemed to correspond to the heavenly stems and earthly branches, and there was a hole in the middle, which should be the place to insert the key.

Brother Yong obviously noticed it too: "We don't have a key, how can we get in?"

His eyeballs moved, and he wanted to say that they were looking around, trying to see if there was another way to get in.

But Cheng Duo didn't want to be so troublesome, he handed the torch to Brother Yong, and told him to stand a little farther away, while he stood in front of the stone gate five or six meters high with a big horse and a golden sword, and pushed hard.

According to Cheng Duo's estimate, the weight of these two stone doors is a thousand catties, and with the mechanism door lock behind it, there is no two thousand catties that cannot be lifted.

Fortunately, Cheng Duo is a person with supernatural powers. As he operated the crystal nucleus, the power of his subordinates gradually increased, and the debris on the stone gate kept falling down.

This stone gate was the heaviest thing Cheng Duo had ever encountered since he came to this world. He blushed and gave a deep drink, and finally an unbearable cracking sound came from behind the stone gate.

Then something heavy fell to the ground, and the stone door slowly opened...

At this moment, something suddenly lit up behind the door following the torch in Brother Yong's hand. Cheng Duo had been prepared for a long time, and rolled on the spot to avoid the ensuing arrow rain attack.

"Ding ding ding——" The metal arrows were densely pierced on the stone floor in front of the door. If a group of people opened the door, it would be too late to avoid it at this moment, and they would be shot like hedgehogs.

"Brother Cheng, are you alright!" Brother Yong was very anxious, and worried that he would disturb Cheng Duo by making a noise, so when the rain of arrows stopped, he couldn't wait to lean over.

"It's okay." Cheng Duo waved his hand, stepped forward and pulled out an iron arrow, and found that it was glowing green, as if it had been poisoned.

He quickly reminded Brother Yong: "Be careful, don't touch these arrows, they may be poisonous."

Brother Yong quickly agreed, but although the arrowheads were poisonous, the tails of the arrows were not poisonous, and the two of them plucked the hairs and cleaned up the arrowheads on the ground.

Looking at the situation, Cheng Duo also knew that the mausoleum was not easy, so he discussed with Brother Yong that he would go down alone, and Brother Yong would wait for him on it.

But it is conceivable how Brother Yong could possibly agree: "Go in together, otherwise if I can't wait, I will go in to find you."

Brother Yong is not impatient, Cheng Duo knew that he was implicitly expressing that if something happened to him, he would not live alone.

That's right, back then Brother Yong even played against him in the inevitable game of jumping off a cliff, let alone a mere underground palace?

"Okay, let's go in together." Cheng Duo nodded, and they've all come here. It doesn't make sense to be scared away because of a small arrow array, which is too inconsistent with his style.

But soon Cheng Duo knew that he was too worried, the mechanism of this Diling was tricky for the ancients.For well-informed modern people, it is actually similar to a decryption game——

Just like the row of neat floor tiles in front, one of them is cracked in the front, back, left, and right sides, and it doesn't fit in with the surroundings. Cheng Duo swore with his heel that he must not step on that tile.

But just in case, Cheng Duo stood at a distance with Brother Yong, and asked Brother Yong to shoot an arrow at the floor tile.

Brother Yong's level of archery has risen sharply recently, only to hear the "ding" all over his body, the floor tiles sank, and a piece of yellow powder suddenly sprinkled from above the passage.

It happened to be sprinkled within two meters of the floor tiles. If they stood there, they would definitely be sprinkled all over their heads and faces by now.

Cheng Duo quickly covered his mouth and nose, and while motioning for Brother Yong to do the same, he led him back.Before I figured out what the yellow powder was, I heard "swishling" noises coming from all directions.

"Oh no, it's a snake!" Brother Yong's complexion changed, and Cheng Duo's expression was also a little bad. They were not afraid of a snake, but these movements were obviously not one, but a large group!

But it was too late to withdraw now, so Cheng Duo could only put the torch behind his back, took out the iron gun, and stood up with Brother Yong.

Soon, the first black snake appeared, and Brother Yong shot it through with an arrow, but soon the second and third appeared...

A dense swarm of snakes appeared in their field of vision, and Cheng Duo and Brother Yong had killed many of them. Unexpectedly, these snakes ignored them at all, and scrambled into the area where the yellow powder was sprinkled, and began to entangle and roll over each other.

"..." Cheng Duo and Brother Yong looked at each other, and Brother Yong said, "So this powder is for attracting snakes?"

Looking at the entangled snakes on the ground, Cheng Duo thought for a while, took out a large pannier from the space, swiped the snakes into the pan with an iron gun, then threw them into the space, and took them out again, the entangled snakes are all dead.

So Cheng Duo continued to throw it in and take it out again. After doing it a dozen times, all the snakes in the Diling had died.

Brother Yong looked at the snakes all over the ground with a pity: "How about we take all these snakes away?"

The thickest snake is as thick as someone's arm, and it must be delicious when made into snake soup.

"...Forget it, I don't know what these snakes ate in the tomb." You must know that this is a mausoleum, and if they get into the coffin...it's not disgusting enough.

Brother Yong was disgusted when he thought about it, and he shivered: "You are right, let's leave quickly."

Just in case, the two of them, one with an iron gun and the other with a bow and arrow, exited the tunnel almost back to back.

Cheng Duo originally thought that the mechanism was the most difficult, but he didn't expect them to spend a day and a night in it, as if they were wandering around the periphery of Diling.

Brother Yong also found out: "We have walked this road three times. It would be great if there is a map. If we want to go in, there must be a mechanism."

The place here is so big, where do they go to find agencies?

Cheng Duo suddenly realized that he was stupid, he even forcibly opened the door, why did he have to follow the tunnel?

He took out the hammer he had prepared earlier from the space: "Brother Yong, stand a little farther away."

Brother Yong: "...Oh."

When the two were searching for secrets in the deep mountain mausoleum, news came back from Li Wang.

It turned out that after he went to Yufang Mountain, he did encounter many difficulties at the beginning, and was almost chased down the cliff by a blind bear.

Fortunately, Li Wang was so lucky that he not only successfully found Li Da and Li Er, but also found a job for himself in the station where the city wall was built, that is, making herbal soup.

Li Wang used to make a living by collecting herbs, and he would prepare some simple soups and medicines for clearing away heat and fire for simple headaches and brain fever.

The construction of the city wall not only required the prisoners to face the scorching sun, but even the soldiers in the barracks had to suffer with them. Many people could never get up again when they got sick.

So Li Wang's decoction has become a life-saving straw for many people. After all, there are no doctors in this ghostly place, and the herbs have to be collected far away.A bowl of Li Wang's soup and medicine only costs two cents, and those prisoners who have some spare money are willing to buy some from him.

After all, life is more important than money.

Prisoners are like this, soldiers are more willing to buy.Later, the weather was too hot, so Li Wang also made some "herbal tea" to clear away the heat and relieve the heat, which not only maintained the life of the family of three, but even made a little money.

In fact, Li Wang had no choice but to stay in Yufang Mountain at the beginning. Although Wei Ling had a letter to prove his identity, Li Da's leg was broken, and Li Er was dying of illness.If he hadn't arrived in time, these two people might really have disappeared.

In order to treat his two sons, Li Wang limped on one leg and started his old job.Perhaps it was because Brother Yong was not there, and the father appeared in time when he was dying and saved himself.

Li Da and Li Er... It should be said that Li Changrong and Li Changgui have a better relationship with their father.

They disdained the name Li Wang begged for them before, and only allowed others to call them Li Da and Li Er.Now the relationship between father and son has eased. Although the two seem awkward, they are willing to talk to Li Wang when he calls their names.

Li Changgui was almost healed after recuperating for more than half a month, but Li Changrong's leg... Li Wang was afraid that he would be lame like himself, so he insisted on letting him take care of him for a few more months.

From this point of view, Li Wang is doing well at the border.It's just that he has been unable to find anyone to help pass the message, and finally waited until the soldier who delivered supplies to the border, so he managed to get someone to help deliver a message.

But the little soldier was in a hurry to go back, and before Brother Yong found him, he found Mr. Li, left a message and left.
