Chapter 820 Peach Garden

Latest website: Hearing that half of the wall was knocked down when they came in, Ji Han and the other two people were instantly alert. They all used flashlights to shine behind them, but they didn't see anything alive.

Chen Ke asked:

"Brother Qie, can't you see anything with your X-ray eyes?"

"You are my brother. I have clairvoyance, not night vision. It's so dark and I can't see clearly. But I didn't hear any other sounds except the collapse of the wall. Maybe it was the wall that was kicked in just now. He collapsed because his body was not stable."

Although Ji Han also found it hard to believe that the wall collapsed on its own without even kicking it completely open, there was really no need to look back now.

The reliefs on the wall do show that this may be the territory of the Queen Mother of the West, but even according to the records in the "Book of Mountains and Seas", the Queen Mother of the West should have more than one foothold.

Song Qian asked:

"So, we don't know whether what we see next will be the tomb of the Queen Mother of the West or the underground space of their tribe?"

Chen Ke recorded the content of the reliefs carved on the wall and replied:

"To be honest, I feel that the probability of the tomb is higher, because the reliefs on the wall are obviously from the lives of the characters. Let's go. In myths and legends, there are many people who begged for panacea from the Queen Mother of the West. We might also try our luck. .”

Chen Ke has always been interested in these myths and legends. Ji Han reminded:

"To understand our purpose this time, the main thing is to get the time ring. There are so many people outside rushing here. If we delay for too long, we don't know what will happen outside."

The four of them continued to move forward along the tunnel. Not long after walking, under the illumination of a flashlight, a figure appeared in the darkness ahead.

Ji Han and the others subconsciously spread out to focus the light, only to find that the man was standing motionless in front.

It wasn't until I got closer that I realized it was a stone man as tall as an ordinary person, standing in the center of the tunnel.

Even though the carving of the stone figure was not particularly detailed due to the technical conditions at the time, it was enough for everyone to recognize that the carving was of a slender woman.

There is a stele standing in front of the woman carved in stone. You can clearly see that there should have been something restrained on it, but now it has been destroyed, and the front looks full of holes.

Ji Han tried to use the electronic wave reading method, but could not read any effective information from it.

Chen Ke wanted to try something more, but was stopped by Eggplant:

"Forget it, you don't need to restore it to know that it should be engraved with something like tomb robbers must die or people who are not of the same clan are not allowed to enter."

However, they didn't encounter any traps along the way, and the four of them felt a little more at ease.

After all, the Queen Mother of the West was so long ago that it was basically impossible for the traps from that time to be preserved until now.

There was darkness again behind the stone sculpture woman. Song Qian threw the lighting rod out, and the bright rod drew a long and beautiful arc in the air before landing.

The only light could not even illuminate the edges of the surrounding walls. Through the echo, Ji Han judged:

"It looks like another huge underground space."

As soon as Eggplant finished speaking, he fired another illumination bomb. Even though Eggplant had tried his best to raise the launch route, it was not until the illumination egg completely exploded that the situation in this huge space became completely clear.

When Ji Han and the other four saw the scene in front of them, they couldn't help but open their mouths.

In front of him was a huge semi-cylindrical space embedded in the ground, like a bomb shelter. Ji Han couldn't imagine how such a space could have been excavated without large-scale machinery during the Queen Mother of the West era.

Unless this place was formed naturally, the people of the Queen Mother of the West only made simple modifications here.

But what surprised Ji Han and the others most was not the huge space in front of them, but the content inside.

I saw fruit trees as tall as two people growing on the ground as far as the eye could see in the space.

These trees growing underground do not seem to have withered and died because they cannot see the sun. Instead, they are all covered with huge fruits.

If it were not underground but on a mountain, then it would be like an orchard about to harvest.

But it seems too abnormal to appear underground.

Ji Han used his flashlight to shine on the nearby fruit trees. Although there were few leaves on them, the trunks looked solid and healthy. Hanging on the trees were huge peaches that looked like jade carvings.

The pieces are uniform, plump, round and complete, and it looks like a peach orchard carefully cut by someone, but no one has been here for hundreds of years at least.

Logically speaking, Ji Han and the others had seen many horrific scenes. The reason why they were shocked by the scene before them was mainly because they saw the peach forest in front of them and remembered the judgment of the Queen Mother of the West that Chen Ke had just obtained from the relief on the wall. Ji Han and the four others thought of something at the same time.

Song Qian said in disbelief:

"Could these be the flat peaches planted by the Queen Mother of the West in the legend?"

Even Ji Han remembered what was said in "Journey to the West" when he was a child. There are 3,600 flat peach trees, and the youngest ones are 1,200. They ripen once every 3,000 years. After eating them, a person becomes an immortal and becomes physically fit. In the middle The last 1,200 trees will ripen once in six thousand years. If a person eats the rosy clouds, he will ascend to heaven and become immortal. The last 1,200 trees will ripen once in nine thousand years. If a person eats them, he will live as long as the heaven and the earth, and the sun and the moon will have the same age.

And these peach trees that violate the growth rules and grow on the territory of the Queen Mother of the West are hard not to remind people of the plot inside.

Chen Ke was not completely led by myths and legends at this moment, and analyzed:

"It looks like it may be some kind of underground plant that is very similar to a peach tree. Not to mention, the fruit is really tempting. I always think that most myths and legends are truths that have expired and gone bad. Maybe the prototype of the flat peach in myths and legends is derived from That's not certain.

But I'm also curious about whether the fruits grown here are edible. Although it's too dangerous to eat them, I think it's okay to take a few back for research. "

Eggplant, who was also surprised, also became alert and reminded:

"Not to mention, it looks really like a peach forest, but let's not try it easily. If this is just an underground orchard, there is no need for those people to seal it up, and those unlucky guys will not die outside."

Chen Ke also suppressed his curiosity and did not pick those peaches.

Ji Han took out the space-time compass again, and the marks on it showed that he still had to move forward.

The peach grove below is not that dense, but there is a simple path in the middle leading to the front.

Ji Han agreed:

"That's right, don't worry about the peach trees on both sides for now. It's important to find Shihuan as soon as possible before encountering any problems."

After saying that, he took the lead and jumped down from the break in the road.
