"When the Dragon Qi enters the acupoint, the Yang will be restrained only once, and the Yin will not expand until five points." According to the "Shaking Dragon Technique", it is actually just a reversal of the order of turning the stone plate in the temple.

After we finished turning the last square of the stone plate, the sky-brick wall in front of us opened in response. The monkey picked up the assault rifle and headed out of the sky-brick figurine passage, while the rest of the people filed out.

Everyone came outside and looked around with flashlights. Although it was an underground building, the surrounding space was huge. Although the carved beams and painted columns had peeled off, they could still see the gorgeous atmosphere of the year. They really were in an underground palace.

We seem to be in the main hall of the underground palace. The brick wall exit is behind a throne carved from jade. This dark wall is so exquisitely built that there is no trace of a secret door behind the throne.

We finally arrived at the Jingjue Palace, which once only existed in legends. In order to take a closer look here, we used all the lighting equipment we brought with us. We saw that the throne and floor of the main hall were all made of jade, and the lamps on the ceiling were made of refined stone. The zither also rotted and broke and fell to the ground. There were still a few gerbils crawling in various corners. It seemed that the air was circulated here. In addition to some jade products, pottery, wood, iron, copper, silk fabrics and other items were all destroyed. The damage from air erosion was extremely severe.

For us, this situation is a mixed blessing. The good thing is that since there is flowing air in the underground palace, it means that it is connected to the underground water. Ye Yixin's little life is finally saved.

Worryingly, the ancient relics in the underground palace were severely damaged. Some pottery pots were so rotten that they turned into powder when touched. There were countless rusty and scarred armor and weapons scattered around, such as tentacle-shaped curved swords, There are giant crane-billed axes, concave-blade knives with curved backs, and various strange ornaments and buckles with national characteristics on the armor. The owners of these round shields and scimitars even have no bones. If you look carefully, you may still find a few incomplete parts. skull.

It's too old, and the reason for air erosion and rot is one. I don't know when it started. Many gerbils came here. Gerbils usually feed on the roots of desert plants and insects underground in the desert. They like to use hard objects to grind their teeth. , many things in this underground palace were eaten up by them.

The jade throne is the best preserved in the main hall. A red jade eye is engraved on the top of the throne. The whole body of the throne is inlaid with gold and silver. It is engraved with fairy mountains, clouds, flowers, birds, fish and beasts. The base is a large piece of stone. The jade as white as goat's milk is particularly eye-catching in the main hall, which is dominated by black tones.

Seeing the dilapidated situation, the monkey was greatly disappointed. He sat down on the throne, patted the armrest and said, "This is the only one worth some money. The rest should be sent directly to the rag collector and sent to the waste recycling station."

I thought to myself that my grandson would never change his unorganized and undisciplined temper. I had to scare him to avoid making Miss Guo and the others laugh, so I said to the monkey: "Comrade Wang Kaixuan, this is a feudal dynasty. The exploiting class is sitting there. Don¡¯t forget that you are also from a revolutionary cadre family. If you are sitting there, your principles and positions will no longer matter.¡±

The monkey laughed: "Come on, Old Hu, you are still pretending to be a political commissar? In what age do you still have to stand up? Do you think this jade throne is worth one million US dollars?... Hey, this head is too big, no It¡¯s really hard to move it back after it¡¯s broken up.¡±

I then said to the monkey: "Don't think about how it moved back. Don't believe it when I tell you. This jade throne was occupied by Queen Jingjue during her lifetime. Maybe her undead soul is wandering in this underground palace. Over the years, I have been lonely and lonely. If you happen to be sitting here, the queen might see you. She must think, hey, this big monkey is really good. He has so much fat on his body. Come on, keep it as a sperm. Forget about the son-in-law who knocked on the door from Jueguo, just chew on it and grind your teeth."

These words did not frighten the monkey. Ye Yixin was no longer in a coma and could barely walk. Miss Guo kept supporting her. When I said that the ghost of Jing Jue Nu's death was still in the underground palace, Ye Yixin rolled her eyes and was frightened again. Fainted.

Love this novel? Read it on Royal Road to ensure the author gets credit.

Miss Guo was so anxious that she stamped her feet: "Can you two stop fooling around? I don't even know what time it is, why don't you come and help me quickly?"

Seeing that the monkey and I were in trouble again, we didn't dare to quarrel anymore. We went over to lift Ye Yixin and put it on the monkey's back so that he could carry it. The monkey just said a few words less and felt that it was not worth it, so he continued to mutter. : "The son-in-law who knocked on the door upside down? I have never seen such an uneducated person like you. You think the queen is a widow from the countryside. The queen's husband should be called... what is his name? It seems that he shouldn't be called Fu Ma, right? "

When Miss Guo saw that the monkey was still nagging, he was so angry that he couldn't help but said: "Call the eunuch."

If Hao Aiguo hadn't died in the archaeological team, the atmosphere would have been very depressing. It would have been inappropriate to laugh at this time. I suppressed it and searched the vast underground palace with everyone, looking for water sources.

The underground palace of Jingjue Ancient Kingdom is not as big as I thought before. Only the main hall is quite large, and the side halls on both sides are relatively simple. The gate and stone steps of the front hall are sealed tightly by sand. In this place, a black stone roof was damaged by explosives. This shows that someone has entered this underground palace before. Judging from the degree of damage and traces of the stone door, it is not recent. It is more than decades. It is history, and it was probably the owner of that black and white photo. Now the gap has long been buried by yellow sand.

After looking at the side halls on both sides, we turned to the back hall, which is where the royal family members rest and live. There are several fountains with jade fences, but they have dried up long ago. As the group walked and looked, Shirley suddenly said: "Listen, Is there any sound of running water?"

I raised my ears and listened, and sure enough, there was the sound of gurgling water not far away. It looked like it was behind the sleeping hall. Everyone quickened their pace and followed the sound of water to a cave behind the hall.

The cave is extremely low-lying. We walked very deep and came to a natural stone cave the size of a golf course. Although it is natural, it has obviously been artificially repaired. The ground is very flat. There is a small underground area in the cave. The lake has a raised land in the middle of the lake, which is like a small island in the middle of the lake. It is only ten square meters in size. The flat lake is like a mirror, surrounding it.

For a week in a row, our group only drank the minimum ration of water. Not to mention being in the desert, drinking just this little water in a day would be enough. But when we saw the cool underground water, we were all eager to dive in. Have a drink.

Miss Guo stopped everyone: "This water source has been abandoned for many years. I don't know whether it is stagnant water or living water. What's more, the underground rivers are constantly changing their routes. The current groundwater may not be the same as it was two thousand years ago. There is the most nitrate and sulfur underground in the Western Regions. What if the water is poisonous?" , take a look first and then talk.¡±

I took a closer look and saw several small colorful fish swimming in the lake, so I smiled and said, "Filter it too much. There are fish in this lake, and there must be a spring in the depths. It is living water and will not be poisonous."

As soon as these words came out, the remaining people no longer cared about anything, and rushed to the lake to drink water in large gulps. They all filled their stomachs with water, but they still felt that they had not drunk enough, until they started to drink water from their mouths as soon as they moved. Just give up when the water flows.

Ye Yixin suffered from dehydration and could not drink a lot of water directly. Miss Guo mixed a pot of water with table salt and gave it to her little by little. We drank so much water that we couldn't move and could only rest on the spot.

I have never thought that water tastes so delicious. I lay on the ground with my belly stretched out and my eyes closed. At this time, the surroundings became quiet. I seemed to hear the sound of water flowing in the distance. It seemed that this underground palace There are more water veins in it than this. The small lake where we drank water was very quiet. The sound of water flowing in the apse came from the water source further away. It should be an underground river with a large flow, perhaps bypassing the Zagrama Mountains. The Zidu Anhe River.

While I was thinking wildly, I suddenly heard Miss Guo say "Huh", her voice full of surprise. I hurriedly sat up with my hands on the ground and asked her what was going on. Miss Guo pointed to the convex land in the center of the lake and motioned for me to see it. there.

Professor Dong and others also sat up from the ground. Everyone looked in the direction Miss Guo pointed and saw an incredible scene.

The convex ground in the lake was, at some point, covered with a dense layer of green phosphorus insects. There were tens of thousands of them. Their bodies gradually turned gray-white, and one by one they wriggled out of their shells. There seems to be a lot of fluorescence on the bodies of the worms after they have shed their shells, sparkling like stars in the sky. The worms stretch their newly obtained wings and can fly to the sky in a while.

At this moment, countless big rats jumped into the cave from all directions. These rats were not afraid of humans at all and turned a blind eye to us. They jumped into the lake without hesitation, went to the water, and scrambled to climb up the middle of the lake. On the convex ground, he greedily grabbed the insects that had just shed their shells, and kept bringing them into his mouth to eat them. After a while, they were all eaten up.

We saw many big rats swimming in the lake. It seemed that these rats must often gather here for dinner, otherwise how could they be so skilled? Thinking of the indescribable nausea here, we opened our mouths and vomited, and vomited all the lake water in our stomachs. Then he spat it out intact.
