Chapter 1671

In a mountain range, several people were moving forward quickly. Occasionally, they would stop, re-determine the direction, and move forward again.

"It should be in front. Although there is a defensive formation set up by them, my people have already opened a passage before, so they will never find it." Pang Tong pointed to the mountain in the distance and said.

"It seems that the other party did not deploy other people nearby to observe, which saves us some trouble." Gu Zheng, who was standing aside, looked around and nodded.

In this mountain range, for some reason, there are very few plants on this half, sparsely scattered here and there, and there are bare hills everywhere, while the other half is lush and dense, with almost no space for people to walk through.

Pang Tong explained that there is a natural crystal stone underneath, which is an excellent material for making weapons, but it is toxic, which is why it is like this.

Anyway, Gu Zheng doesn't believe it. Even if it is toxic, it can't be so polarized.

After five days of traveling, they finally arrived at the edge of the mountain range. They passed through three cities on the way and spent another two days before they made a detour here.

A total of seven people came here together, including Gu Zheng and two others.

Kun Yu and Leng Xin, as well as a man who said he knew about formations and a woman who was amazingly fast and good at finding out information, together formed a relatively large small team.

At this time, Gu Zheng looked around. Near the hilltop pointed by Pang Tong, under the sky, in Gu Zheng's opinion, there were basically warning formations everywhere. There were almost no creatures here, so there was no need to worry about the possibility of other irrelevant intrusions.

But in the eyes of Kun Yu and others, only one-third of the traps could be found, and the rest could not be found at all, and they were hidden very deeply.

Just a slight observation of the small hilltop, basically no difference could be seen, and then Pang Tong took them to another direction.

The further out, the fewer the opponent's warning formations, but on another hilltop not far away, the entire mountain was blocked by a huge seal, for fear that others would not know what was inside.

Compared with the low profile before, it was simply to attract attention here.

"This was my territory, but it was only in the past!" Pang Tong sighed as he looked at a huge cave entrance.

The outer layer was shining with golden light. If you want to break through, you probably don't have a certain amount of strength and time. Don't even think about opening a gap. However, with such a big noise, even a fool would know that someone is here.

"What should I do next?" Leng Xin asked Pang Tong. At this time, there seemed to be no gaps around, and he couldn't enter the place where he used to be.

"Of course, I walked in openly. Don't look at the other party's strict appearance now. In fact, my people have already replaced them in the middle. At that time, I used a precious magic weapon to take out a batch of ores hidden below." Pang Tong said proudly, and at the same time, he walked directly to the main entrance.

Everyone didn't speak, and their eyes looked as if they had walked through a layer of water waves, and they had already walked in, but they didn't attract the attention of any magic circle.

"Don't worry, the other party is too conceited and didn't check it at all." Pang Tong said again.

"Let's go!" Gu Zheng spoke at this time and walked towards it.

Although Pang Tong said it was so good, now Gu Zheng has taken over everything and everyone obeys his actions.

This barrier is just as Pang Tong said. It seems to be connected to the surroundings, but it is actually a separate existence. It is just an appearance.

After everyone passed through, they followed Pang Tong into the underground mine.

This mine is very large, and the passages are like a maze, leading in all directions. The deeper it is, the more branches there are, making people feel as if the cave is going to be hollowed out.

Occasionally, you can also see blue crystals the size of a fingernail, which don’t seem to have much value and are not worth mining.

"You know, I found the mine a little bit here, and it took tens of thousands of years, but everything is worth it." Pang Tong, who had realized it in the front, began to talk to himself again. After all, his road to wealth also started from here.

"That guy started again." Xiaoying whispered in Gu Zheng's ear. The other party was like a chatterbox, talking non-stop, and even Xiaoying was a little tired of listening.

Gu Zheng smiled and did not interrupt the other party's conversation. The other party was a little scared, and only in this way could he vent it.

After half an hour, they didn't know how many passages they had gone through, and it was estimated that they were hundreds of meters underground. They hurried on their way and finally came to a dead end. There was no road on the messy wall.

"It's here. This place is connected to the edge of that place. As for whether there are other passages, I don't know." Pang Tong said with a sigh of relief.

As he said this, he began to cast a spell in his hand and sank into the edge of the corner. Many rocks kept falling from it. Soon a huge green stone tablet appeared in front of everyone, but in the upper left corner, a black crack ran from the top to the bottom.

"Hey, there are words on it! Why do I feel a little familiar?" When Pang Tong finished his action, Xiaoying came up and pointed and exclaimed.

"I have never seen this kind of text before, and I don't know what is written on it!" Pang Tong shrugged and said.

"I thought we could go directly through a hole, but it turned out to be a stone tablet? Are we going to jump in?" Kun Yu also came over, took a closer look, shook his head and said to them.

"You are right, the bottom itself is an independent space. I don't know why there is this thing here, but it can be entered and exited. I have been in it once." Pang Tong answered truthfully.

At this time, Xiaoying's eyes flashed with golden light, scanning the entire stone tablet like a searchlight, and then nodded slightly to Gu Zheng.

The two of them recognized the text on it almost at the same time, which was exactly the same as that on the golden scroll, but they just wrote it down first and waited for a chance.

"Then let's not dawdle, I will open the way and wait for you inside." Gu Zheng took the lead and said to everyone.

After saying that, the whole figure jumped directly into the dark gap and disappeared here.

After Gu Zheng left, Xiaoying also jumped down without saying a word.

"I'll go down first!" Kun Yu also jumped down after saying this.

The black crack was like a big mouth, swallowing three people in a row, and a wisp of black mist emerged from it.

"This stone tablet actually has restrictions!" Leng Xin, who had sharp eyes, suddenly said.

The originally green stone tablet turned whiter, and it even felt that the crack had expanded again.

"Then I'll wait for you first. I said I would go down, and I can't break my promise!" After Pang Tong finished speaking, he also disappeared here.

"Crack"

A very strong cracking sound appeared in the cave, and the black crack actually cracked a little more under their eyes, almost to the edge.

At the same time, a large piece of black mist emerged from the crack, which made the remaining three people jump their eyelids, as if the space in it was a little unstable.

"Let me do it. If this entrance collapses, I will go back and tell others to continue waiting for our good news." Leng Xin took a deep breath and disappeared in front of everyone in the black mist.

"Boom boom"

A thunderous sound suddenly sounded from the stone tablet, and the whole stone tablet suddenly shook rapidly. Fist-sized stones began to fall from it. It was obvious that it could not bear it and began to collapse.

"What are you doing? Are you crazy?"

The woman looked at her companion rushing over, completely disregarding life and death, and jumped directly into the unstable stone tablet, and couldn't help shouting.

Unfortunately, the other party didn't hear her words at all, because the other party also disappeared here, leaving only the last woman.

At this time, the stone tablet had completely collapsed, and even the base underneath was shattered, with green stones all over the ground.

No matter who came, they would not know what happened here.

"Is it here? I heard a noise. Did someone break in?"

Suddenly, the woman heard a call from outside the passage, which seemed to come from above. Although the sound was very small, the whole person was shocked. It was obvious that a Shura was approaching this side.

"But it killed me. Didn't you say there was no one?"

But she didn't expect that as the stone tablet vibrated, the fluctuations leaked from the breath still attracted the Shura people who had been gathering nearby to check it out.

In an unknown space, in a relatively spacious hall, Gu Zheng was frowning and looking around.

There were mottled walls all around, and some moss even grew on them. There were also cracks on many grounds, which looked a bit dilapidated, just like a house that had been neglected for a long time.

However, at every distance, there were faint candles burning around, illuminating the whole place and reducing the somewhat gloomy atmosphere.

In particular, there was a special breath around, not only the breath of Shura people, but also the breath of Gu Zheng chasing Heishui, and even a hidden killing in it, all mixed here, almost disturbing his consciousness.

There were also a few door frames with only frames next to it, and I didn't know where they led to.

In the middle, there are even a few red tables used by ordinary people, and some long red stools, which are still as smooth as a mirror, as if someone has been maintaining it here to keep it clean.

There is even a layer of red carpet on the ground. If it weren't for the fact that the surroundings are a bit empty, it would feel like coming to the restaurant of a wealthy family.

When Gu Zheng came in, he already knew that this place was an independent space, and the tomb that was rumored outside was probably another stable entrance.

Even if it is an independent space, it seems to be still underground, because there are also impenetrable earth walls on it, which are more than ten feet high and appear extremely wide.

When Gu Zheng just came in and was still observing, a figure next to him suddenly fell from the air, and soon they all appeared here.

"What's wrong with you? Zhou Xuan, where is the other person?" When the last person fell from the air, Gu Zheng saw that there was a deep wound on the chest of the opponent, almost disemboweled, and asked immediately.

"The stone tablet outside collapsed. I was the last one to force my way in. She couldn't get in." Zhou Xuan was the one who was proficient in the formation. He swallowed a pill first and then said briefly.

"I looked around for a long time, but I couldn't find the vortex that led me out. I was scared to death." Pang Tong, who had been tense since he came in, also breathed a sigh of relief.

Because he had vowed before that he could go in and out, but once he entered, he found that he couldn't go out at all, which made people suspicious.

"It's not your fault. No one thought that the stone tablet had a number of times, which means that we need to find another exit. This is a bit troublesome." Gu Zheng frowned and said, after all, if there is only one entrance, they have to break out.

"There is a familiar smell here, it seems that the same kind has been here, but now the smell is much weaker, maybe they should leave." Xiaoying next to him suddenly said seriously.

"You should be talking about ghost energy, what does it have to do with us?" Kunyu next to him looked at Xiaoying inexplicably, and didn't understand what he said at all, but he felt a ghost energy in the air, it seems that there are many demons in it.

"Well, I understand, everyone be careful, we are here to save people, not to find treasure." Gu Zheng nodded to Xiaoying, indicating that he understood what the other party meant, and said to everyone.

"So how do we go next?" After everyone gathered, Kunyu asked Gu Zheng.

"We should go as far as possible to each place. We don't know where the other party is imprisoned, so we can't miss any place. I'll take a look at the side first, and you can just follow me." Gu Zheng looked at the several passages around him and said solemnly.

Gu Zheng said, and then walked to the right first. There are now a total of four doors around, one in the east, south, west and north. There is no need to look at the one behind. You can see the scene inside clearly from the outside. There are some sundries piled inside.

"Huh? Is this a defensive shield? So tough!" Gu Zheng approached that side, and suddenly a ball of pink smoke gathered at the door, blocking Gu Zheng's way.

Gu Zheng tried to test it, which gave him a headache. Although this ball of pink mist has no power, this protection can't even be opened by him.

"There is also pink mist blocking this side. I'll go over there and take a look!" Xiaoying even turned and flew to the left, but when she approached, she found that there was also a pink mist blocking it.

"You can pass here." When she came to the passage above, Xiaoying whispered to everyone.

It seemed that both sides of the hall were dead ends, leaving only one passage for them to walk along.

"Zhou Xuan, check around to see if there are any mechanisms or the like." Gu Zheng suddenly ordered.

Because this group of powder mist was obviously spontaneously placed in the mausoleum here, and it was not set up by outsiders again, it was impossible that there was no backup.

Zhou Xuan responded immediately, and then he got busy in this hall.

"Click"

Soon, as Zhou Xuan seemed to open something under a bench, accompanied by the sound of a mechanism opening, the powder mist in front of Gu Zheng slowly dissipated, and a passage appeared in front of them.

"Wow, so magical, is there any more, open that mechanism too." Xiaoying quickly flew back, saying with some surprise, and at the same time she began to carefully explore the surroundings, as if she wanted to find another mechanism.

Others also took action and searched together.

Unfortunately, when Zhou Xuan stopped searching in this hall, they did not find the location to open another mechanism.

"Don't look for it yet. Follow me and let's see what's hidden inside first." Gu Zheng said as he saw everyone search the hall, even the utility room, but still found nothing.

Everyone followed Gu Zheng and walked into the hall along the passage.

Following a straight passage, after only a few steps, they turned a corner and found a hall of about the same size as before. Then there was no more passage and they had reached the end.

Gu Zheng looked around and saw that the layout was almost the same as the hall in front. The only difference was that there were some red empty cans in the corners, some of which were still sealed, and some were scattered on the ground, and the filling mouths on them had disappeared.

"It seems that there is nothing here, let's go back." A group of people walked in one by one, looking at the empty everything, Kun Yu suggested to Gu Zheng.

Gu Zheng nodded, and he didn't find anything wrong. Maybe it was a room that had been left unused. When he was about to leave, Xiaoying flew into it instead.

This made Gu Zheng's footsteps nailed to the spot. Although he didn't know what was going on, he saw Xiaoying's face and noticed that she seemed to have found something of her own.

"Is there something in this jar?" Xiaoying picked up a sealed pottery jar and said to herself, shaking it vigorously, but no sound came out.

Seeing that everyone was looking at her, Xiaoying's face was slightly red, and she raised her hand and threw the jar down fiercely.

"Crashed"

The jar instantly fell to the ground and broke into pieces, and there was nothing inside.

This made Xiaoying's face a little embarrassed, and she shouted angrily.

"If you don't come out, I will smash all these things."

Unexpectedly, just as her voice fell, in another corner, a sealed pottery jar shook slightly, and a wisp of black air slowly emerged from it, and then a ghost appeared in front of everyone.

Everyone looked at it and saw that it was just a fairy-level ghost. The weapons that they had just subconsciously taken out in their hands were silently put back.

"You little devil, why are you hiding here? Tell the truth, or I'll beat you to death." Xiaoying shouted in surprise. She didn't expect that her bluff would really blow the other party out.

"Why did you break the pottery jar where we were hiding." Seeing Xiaoying's pretending to be fierce, the ghost actually cried to Xiaoying, looking very aggrieved.
