Liu Changding listened to Zuo Zhicheng and the others' descriptions, as well as the underground passage and the structure of the river. He remained silent, took a branch, and began to draw on the ground.
Just when everyone was about to lose their patience, Liu Changding touched his chin and said, "Whether it's the Central Plains or the New World, important buildings and ruins are built according to Feng Shui. The so-called Feng Shui is the concept of architectural design. In the Central Plains, Feng Shui is based on the heavens and the earth, mountains and rivers.
But it's different in the New World. For some reason, the people here worship the stars. Their Fengshui, or architecture, was mainly based on the star chart in the sky.
Like the underground hall here, you've already explored it. I think it's right now. It should be the so-called remnants of the so-called Amaliken. And the layout here is the so-called Black Dragon Burial Layout. The dark river outside is the meaning of the Black Dragon Soaring. In the Central Plains, it's a big omen, and the water must be cut off.
However, Amaliken's architecture focused on the stars. Since he passed it down, almost all the races in the New World built important buildings, including cemeteries, altars, and palaces. They all had the same idea. This was originally the basis of Amaliken's existence … "
Tangyuan heard this and said impatiently, "Okay, okay, Mr. Liu, we don't have much now. Tell us how we can get out of this underground palace. Or is there an underground mezzanine where we can hide? "
"I'm afraid there's no way out. According to the Black Dragon Constellation in the sky, that should be the only way out, and the only place where humans can go in and out. I'm afraid the other exits are not for people to go in and out." Liu Changding continued, "But Mr. Gui Quan is right about one thing. There should be another floor underground here."
He took the branch and pointed to several directions in the underground hall. As the saying goes, dragons and snakes enter the abyss and return to their roots … "
Before he finished, Gui Quan grabbed Liu Changding and put him on his back. Then he picked up Qing Yueqiu and said, "Don't say anymore, we don't understand what you're saying. Those monsters are coming. Just point the way and we'll go."
"Okay … okay." Liu Changding nodded blankly. The next moment, he pointed to a direction in the underground hall. Then, Tangyuan and Tang Xianghui followed behind Zuo Zhicheng and ran toward the target.
Along the way, Zuo Zhicheng asked Tang Xianghui and Tangyuan to collect some psionic food from the trees. It was a kind of fruit that looked like an apple, but there was a layer of red on the surface that looked like a flame.
Zuo Zhicheng also took a look at the faint figure in the infrared vision. However, it was obvious that this person was no longer at the entrance of the underground palace. Zuo Zhicheng could not use this to find the entrance.
In the end, he could only follow Liu Changding's judgment and find a few places in a row. Zuo Zhicheng dug up a layer of soil with his hands. After hundreds of thousands of years, the ground of the underground palace was covered with a thick layer of soil, corpse mud, feces, and other filth.
After the layer of dirt was swept away, a layer of marble-like ground appeared in front of everyone. Zuo Zhicheng knocked with his finger and made a hollow sound, "It's here."
Zuo Zhicheng asked, "Qing Yueqiu, are there any traces of artificial spiritual power or Taoist techniques around here?"
"Uh …" Although Qing Yueqiu did not know why Liu Changding asked this, she still used her psionic vision to look around and then answered, "No."
"Okay." Zuo Zhicheng asked, "Then, Mr. Liu, there shouldn't be any traps here, right?"
"This is not an ancient tomb, nor is it a place of worship. There shouldn't be any traps here." Liu Changding shook his head, "Besides, even if there were any traps, whether they were wood, wires, or gears, they would have all rotted away after so many years."
Zuo Zhicheng nodded. He knew this too. In his previous life, he knew that in all the official archaeological activities in the world, there were very few traps that could kill people. This was because there were no traps that could be maintained for hundreds of thousands of years.
The so-called hidden weapons and traps in ancient tombs were mostly just a fiction. There were very few traps that could be preserved.
The most difficult part of tomb raiding or archaeology was to find the remains of ancient tombs and preserve the things inside.
Only a small part of the traps could be preserved for a long time through flowing water, boulders, and other topographical structures. However, this was only possible if the topography did not change.
However, although there were no such traps in ancient tombs in this world, there were Taoist techniques and supernatural creatures.
Therefore, after Zuo Zhicheng confirmed his thoughts with the two of them, he took a deep breath and slammed his palm hard on the stone slab.
With a loud bang, Zuo Zhicheng's palm used vibrational force. The stone slab shook violently a few times and then tilted up a little.
However, Zuo Zhicheng's action shocked Qing Yueqiu and the others.
"What are you doing!"
Zuo Zhicheng said nonchalantly, "There won't be any traps, and it's too troublesome to find a way to open this door. Maybe we'll find that the trap is broken after we find it. "
"Also, go and pick up a few branches. We can use them as a fire source."
At the same time, Zuo Zhicheng used two fingers to press down on the part of the stone slab that was sticking up. He lifted the entire stone slab up.
A pitch-black hole appeared in front of everyone.
"Okay, get ready to go down."
Everyone swallowed their saliva and walked down one by one. Zuo Zhicheng was the last to go down and covered the stone slab again.
More than ten minutes after they left, countless monsters jumped onto the branches and kept making light noises as if they were looking for something. However, as if they were afraid of waking up the Serpent King, their noises were very soft, and they didn't dare to move too much.
It was not until a few hours later that they all crawled out of the holes, and the entire underground space returned to silence again.
…
In the dark, Zuo Zhicheng could clearly see the surrounding terrain with his night vision mode, but the other three could not. Without a light source, they could not see anything at all.
However, Zuo Zhicheng had asked them to bring a few branches down. Now that they were in the dark, he took the branches and wrapped them with a few pieces of cloth from his clothes. Then, he took a small bottle of fire oil from his pocket and soaked it in the cloth.
"Release your Silhouette Being."
Qing Yueqiu opened the small pot, and Zuo Zhicheng saw the position of the Silhouette Being. Then he took a small bottle and sprinkled water on it. This was originally the reserve water he prepared for himself. Now that he had so much psionic food on his head and body, he might as well use it.
He directly handed the torch to the Silhouette Being. The water and strong alkali produced a lot of heat, and then the kerosene and cloth were all ignited.
Under the illumination of the fire, the tunnel and the underground palace appeared in front of everyone.
