Chapter 113: Coffins Appear in All Directions (8000)

The black hole is located in the center of the lake bottom.

From the surface, there is no abnormality. Because it is night and there is only moonlight, it is dark inside.

"It is incredible that a skeleton can block this hole." Xu Bai touched his chin and said to himself.

Although it is incredible, it is normal in this world. After all, not everything can be explained by the experience of the previous life.

"Do you want to go down and take a look now?" Qin Feng asked.

Since the black hole appeared, Chu Yu has been hiding behind Xu Bai, sticking his head out and looking around. Until he saw the black hole, he kept staring at it and didn't move away.

Qin Feng asked Xu Bai if he wanted to go down. Chu Yu finally reacted, gritted his teeth, and finally decided to speak out his inner thoughts.

"Master, I feel something is wrong here." Chu Yu hesitated, looking at Xu Bai's face while turning his head to look at the black hole.

Xu Bai was originally planning to go down directly, but now after hearing Chu Yu say this, he frowned and turned his eyes to Chu Yu.

"What's wrong?"

Chu Yu's words just now made him a little confused.

In fact, Chu Yu has always been heartless and extremely curious about everything, but now Chu Yu's behavior is completely the opposite.

Why do you feel nervous?

It was pitch black around him. Under the moonlight, Chu Yu scratched his head and said in confusion: "How can I describe it? I feel very disgusted. The feeling of disgust makes me feel uncomfortable all over when I look at this black hole."

As he spoke, Chu Yu gestured.

Hearing Chu Yu's description, Xu Bai frowned.

Others don't know Chu Yu's identity, but he knows it clearly.

Chu Yu is the daughter of King Shengyou, in other words, she is also a member of the royal family.

Now Chu Yu's unusual behavior makes Xu Bai unconsciously think of the royal family, especially the one in the capital.

But he still remembers that the one made a bet with King Shengyou.

If I can solve the problem here, the emperor will not interfere in the world.

If I don't solve it, the emperor will fight with Shengyou Wang, and as for what to fight, of course it's him.

Sometimes Xu Bai wondered what he had done to attract the emperor's attention, but for his own salted fish dream, he really couldn't give up.

What's more, if he won this matter, Yunlai Mansion would be in his hands, and there would be many benefits.

It was a good thing, but seeing Chu Yu's performance today, he had to think more.

Although the emperor was far away, the degree of his cunning and deep calculations could not be measured by distance.

Don't forget how the eighth prince died, falling into the emperor's trap step by step, and became the price of rescuing Shengyou Wang.

Can an emperor be poor in wisdom?

The more he thought about it, the more careful Xu Bai became.

But after repeated inquiries, Chu Yu just repeated that he hated this place very much, and there was nothing else besides it.

"Brother Xu, it's getting late." Yun Zihai saw Xu Bai was still in a daze, and couldn't help but remind him.

They all heard what Chu Yu said, but there was no clue and no way to guess.

Xu Bai came back to his senses, looked at the black hole in front of him, and said, "Let's go."

Although he thought so much, he had to look at the clues in front of him.

The few people no longer hesitated and jumped from the edge of the lake.

The bottom of the lake was moist and the soil was loose. Because the lake water had just been cleared, it was very sticky to step on it.

When Xu Bai and the others came closer, they could see the whole picture of the black hole.

The black hole finally became clear under the moonlight.

In the hole, there was a staircase that went down diagonally. Because the hole was narrow, he couldn't see anything deeper, and could only see the first few steps.

"There must be an independent space underground, and it was specially equipped with stairs. It seems that someone built it, but I don't know who built it." Yun Zihai looked back and forth several times and said.

Xu Bai certainly saw it. He touched his chin and looked at Chu Yu again, saying, "Do you feel more?"

Chu Yu stared at the stairs intently. After hearing what Xu Bai said, she shook her head and said, "Just like at the beginning, I'm just annoyed by this place."

Indescribably irritable.

More annoyed than those days of a woman's month.

Chu Yu could feel that this irritability seemed to be an instinctive disgust, making her uncomfortable.

"You don't know the reason either?" Xu Bai looked at Qin Feng and said, "You are his cousin, you should know it."

Qin Feng also shook his head and said, "I don't feel disgusted, and my cousin has been here since she was born... We haven't met many times."

When Qin Feng was about to say that Chu Yu had been in the palace, he saw Yun Zihai here and held it back.

Xu Bai didn't ask what he wanted, so he simply stopped asking. He changed the subject and said to Chu Yu, "If there is anything unusual later, you must tell us as soon as possible."

Chu Yu nodded vigorously, indicating that she understood.

Everything was ready, and everyone looked at each other. Yun Zihai was ready to lead the charge.

Xu Bai didn't say anything about this.

The second one was Qin Feng, the third one was Chu Yu, and the last one was Xu Bai.

The strongest people were guarding the front and back, and Qin Feng and Chu Yu were in the second and third positions, and they could also respond in time.

After all, this cave can only be entered by one person. If it were a little more spacious, it would be easier to arrange. Now this optimal solution can only be used to solve the problem.

As for who is stronger between Yun Zihai and Qin Feng, Qin Feng raised his hand directly, indicating that he couldn't beat Yun Zihai.

In Xu Bai's opinion, whether this fight can be won is another matter. In fact, in the second position, he wanted to protect Chu Yu more.

When several people walked into this narrow passage, the sticky feeling of the ground disappeared.

The passage was paved with stone slabs, clean and tidy. Because it was at the bottom of the lake, there was a hint of moisture in the air.

The dark, narrow and humid passage always made Xu Bai think of other things.

The journey was smooth, and Yun Zihai led the way in front, which also played a very good role.

There was no light in this passage, and Yun Zihai waved his hand and wrote a few words. When they fell on the book in his left hand, the pages slowly floated up, emitting a hazy light, illuminating the place.

Xu Bai also took this opportunity to look around.

The walls of the passage were smooth and delicate, and there was no roughness when touched by hand.

"Everything here seems to be carefully crafted, even the walls are not lacking in fineness." Xu Bai rubbed his chin with his hand and said.

Even an ordinary passage is full of fineness. Xu Bai thought that the things inside must be extraordinary.

The further they went inside, the farther they were from the ground.

The stairs went down diagonally, and they were now heading underground.

The crowd did not communicate much, and they all moved forward cautiously. Just after they walked for a while, they finally saw the difference.

The surrounding walls were no longer smooth, but had different degrees of ups and downs. Xu Bai leaned against the wall and saw the trick in it with the light from the book.

The ups and downs of different degrees gathered together and slowly formed a picture. The carving on the wall was an exquisite relief.

"I seem to have seen this thing somewhere." Qin Feng looked at the picture above and fell into deep thought.

The relief depicted a scene of people coming and going. There were many people on it, doing their own different actions. In addition to people, there were various house shapes around, which looked like a picture of prosperity.

Like the wall, the relief was also extremely delicate. The characters on the relief were portrayed very delicately, and the expressions of the characters were also lifelike. They all had cheerful expressions and looked very lively.

"Isn't this the street next to the government office?" Xu Bai said.

He could see that the carving on the wall was the street next to the government office of Yunlai Prefecture.

He often passed by there and remembered a lot of them. Among them, there are several iconic buildings that look exactly the same.

Not only that, but also those pedestrians, including the vendors on both sides of the street, are engraved on this relief.

"And here, this is another street." Yun Zihai pointed to the relief next to him and added.

"This road seems to be the place I passed by when I was fishing before. I also bought a fishing rod in this store." Qin Feng looked at another relief and said.

Chu Yu was puzzled and said: "Even the store where I often sell buns has these reliefs, but why are these reliefs engraved in this passage?"

No one answered his question, because the people present did not understand this question. The scene in front of them was too weird. Without clues, they could only watch the excitement.

"Keep going inside, maybe we will get the answer later." Xu Bai said.

Everyone nodded, knowing that they could not see any useful information just by staying here and watching, so they did not stop and continued to walk deeper.

The passage was dark, but there was light, which always made people feel a little comfortable.

The further they walked inside, the more mysterious they felt.

There were more and more reliefs on the wall, and the scenes depicted were getting more and more.

As they walked, they suddenly realized that they had already seen many streets in Yunlai Mansion.

"Nothing was missed, and it was even more detailed than the real objects I saw." Yun Zihai turned his head with a cautious look on his face.

Xu Bai raised his hand, touched the wall, and then rubbed the fingers that had just touched the wall, with a slight smile on his face.

This latest relief was a little rough to the touch, not as round as it looked later, and there was some powder on the gaps between the reliefs.

"It seems that when the previous governor was in office, they did a lot of work. Looking at the traces on the relief, the latest relief was made not long ago." Xu Bai said.

"Go on, I really want to see what fancy things they are going to do."

The stairs at the bottom of the lake, the passage in the stairs, and the reliefs on the walls on both sides of the passage.

The relief also depicts the situation of Yunlai Mansion, and it even appears exactly the same. In the latest relief, new work is also shown, proving that they did not stop the carving work even at the last moment.

Originally, Xu Bai thought that this was left over from ancient times, but after seeing the latest state, he already understood that this thing was completely arranged by the mastermind behind the scenes.

"Keep going." Xu Bai thought for a while and said.

For now, the further down we go, the more clues we will get.

Everyone nodded and quickened their pace along this passage.

It took half an hour to walk.

When Yun Zihai, who was at the front, stopped, Xu Bai looked over.

"Brother Xu, trouble is coming." Yun Zihai said with a wry smile.

Originally, this passage could only allow one person to pass through, but after Yun Zihai said this, he stepped aside and revealed the situation behind.

At the end of this passage, there are four forks, extending in four directions respectively.

The extended passage no longer goes down, but becomes a flat road.

There are no stairs, no ups or downs, just four flat roads.

"Fork in the road?" Xu Bai glanced at it.

Because there are more forks in the road, the space is relatively open.

Xu Bai walked closer and took a look at each fork in the road, but he couldn't see anything special.

The branched passages are endless and there is nothing strange about them.

"Are they asking us to act separately?" Yun Zihai pondered.

Everyone looked at each other.

They are not playing house now, but in unknown danger.

Together, they can have a huge improvement.

And if they separate, the danger will double.

But the problem is that if the four people still don't separate and keep this state, it will take a lot of time.

Wasting time is the biggest trouble.

After all, they don't know whether the person behind the scenes has come here. If they waste time here, it will give the enemy an opportunity.

"Or, let's go separately?" Chu Yu looked around and said.

Before he finished speaking, Qin Feng refused.

"Absolutely not." Qin Feng said seriously: "I must be with my cousin. My main thing is to protect my cousin's safety."

Although he was pulled aboard by Xu Bai, he still did not forget his own affairs.

The premise of helping is to be able to protect Chu Yu's safety.

If he can't do it, he will definitely change his mind.

Xu Bai glanced at Qin Feng and said: "Don't make a fuss. Who said to act separately?"

If someone else said this, Qin Feng would definitely refute it.

But when Xu Bai said this, Qin Feng remained silent and just looked at him with a puzzled look.

After all, Qin Feng was defeated by Xu Bai at the lake, and now he has no intention of arguing.

"Brother Xu, do you have a solution?" Yun Zihai asked with a little curiosity.

In Yun Zihai's opinion, there is no other way except to act separately in the current situation.

So after hearing Xu Bai's words, Yun Zihai also wanted to know what Xu Bai's solution was.

Xu Bai pointed to the road on the far left and said, "Let's go this way together."

Yun Zihai was slightly stunned: "But if so, we will waste time."

Chu Yu and Qin Feng nodded, it was indeed as Yun Zihai said.

"Brother Yun, you have to understand one thing." Xu Bai said: "Everything must be done under the premise of safety. In the entire Yunlai Mansion, there are only four of us who can fight. If something unexpected happens, we will be at the mercy of others. Of course, under the premise of safety, what we have to do is to compress time as much as possible."

"How to compress time?" Yun Zihai asked.

What Xu Bai said just now was correct. What they have to do is indeed to reduce the danger.

But Yun Zihai was concerned about the second half of Xu Bai's words.

How to compress time is the most important issue.

Xu Bai pointed to one of the roads and said: "We all go this way, and then you two use your flying sword skills to explore the other two roads respectively. You should be able to sense it."

He said the second half of the sentence to Chu Yu and Qin Feng.

Chu Yu was slightly stunned when she heard this. After she reacted, she thought about it carefully and nodded, saying, "It's OK. As long as it doesn't exceed the maximum distance of the divine essence, there will be no problem."

Qin Feng was also stunned: "Can the flying sword technique be used like this?"

Since he started using the flying sword technique, it has always been used to kill people. This is the first time he has used the flying sword technique to explore the way.

"Everything must be used flexibly. If it can break the situation instantly, you can let me perform a chest-breaking stone in public." Xu Bai said.

"But there is still a problem." Qin Feng said again: "Our divine essence also has a limit. If it exceeds the limit distance of the flying sword technique, I am afraid it will not be useful."

He and Chu Yu are both fifth-grade masters, but they also have limits.

If the distance is exceeded, then you can only give up.

"If it exceeds, forget it, at least it can reduce the probability." Yun Zihai explained and looked at Xu Bai: "Brother Xu, I am right, right?"

Xu Bai nodded, showing a matter-of-fact expression, and said: "This is a test of compressed time. If it fails, forget it. We don't need to take risks."

The words are rough but the truth is true. Although Xu Bai said it clearly, everyone also understood it clearly.

Yun Zihai said: "If a pedantic person were here, I'm afraid he would be very angry."

In fact, Xu Bai's approach is a bit of a self-protective move, but it is also a self-protective move with reason.

After all, they are indeed the only people who can solve the problem known so far. If there is danger, the people behind the scenes will have no constraints.

"If someone else is here and opposes me, I will turn around and leave." Xu Bai smiled.

"Then try it." Yun Zihai looked at Qin Feng.

Qin Feng agreed, pinched a sword formula, and manipulated the long sword behind him.

When he was manipulating it, he suddenly felt something was wrong.

Xu Bai's order was fine, after all, he was a defeated general, why was he ordered by Yun Zihai?

"These two people are very strange." Qin Feng muttered in his heart.

Not only Xu Bai is strange, Yun Zihai is also strange. Just now, he inexplicably made him do what he thought.

Of course, Qin Feng didn't say it, but it didn't mean Chu Yu wouldn't say it.

Chu Yu tilted her head and looked at Yun Zihai, with a puzzled look on her face: "I feel... your breath has changed."

This made Yun Zihai slightly stunned.

He looked around and didn't see anything unusual. He said strangely: "I haven't changed at all."

As he said that, he turned his head and asked the same question to Xu Bai's position: "Brother Xu, what have I changed?"

Xu Bai smiled and said: "Nothing has changed, Chu Yu, let's start, don't delay any more."

Chu Yu said, and seeing that Xu Bai didn't say anything, she operated the divine energy and controlled the flying sword.

She and Qin Feng, each controlling one, flew towards two passages respectively.

Two of the four passages have been occupied. If they enter another one later, there will be only one left.

As for the last one, just leave it there, after all, there is no manpower available.

When the flying sword disappeared at the end, everyone walked towards the cave entrance on the far left without any hesitation.

Xu Bai stepped into the passage and did not find anything unusual. He raised his foot and gradually walked forward, and Yun Zihai and others were next to him.

Everyone was moving forward cautiously, but Xu Bai stared at Yun Zihai's back and was thinking about other things.

Just now Chu Yu said that he felt that Yun Zihai was a little bit wrong. Maybe others took it as a joke, but he didn't think so.

Before coming in, he had already told Chu Yu that if there was any abnormal situation or abnormal feeling, he should speak out quickly. Now that Chu Yu has spoken out, it cannot be treated as a trivial matter.

And when Chu Yu said that he felt something was wrong, he also looked at Yun Zihai and felt a little abnormal.

It's hard to say what it feels like, but it always feels very wrong. Yun Zihai's aura is different at this moment. In addition to the pale face, the aura on his body has become a little sharp.

However, he did not say it, but let the situation develop. After all, the aura alone is different, and there is nothing wrong with it.

As he walked, Xu Bai thought about it and carefully took stock of all the situations in the passage.

"First, the relief in the passage actually depicts the topography of Yunlai Mansion, and even the common people are engraved in. Although it is not complete, it is also partially engraved."

"The second is Chu Yu's feelings. Why does she have a disgusting aura?"

"Finally, it is Yun Zihai. Why does his aura become more fierce?"

Three situations, three mysteries.

After thinking about it, Xu Bai found some clues.

Let's not talk about the problems of Yun Zihai and Chu Yu for now. If the map is sorted out completely, it seems to have some order.

"Starting from the government office, in fact, only some corresponding streets are drawn, but the more remote it is, the more complicated the things engraved on the wall are. It seems to be avoiding the government office, but why avoid the government office?"

Xu Bai raised his head and seemed to think of something, but he did not say it.

When something is not confirmed to be a fact, it is a waste of time to speak it out. He needs to verify it, and next is the time to verify it.

"Heh, the relief carved in the passage may not be for us to see." Xu Bai thought.

Thinking so, Yun Zihai, who was walking in the front, made a noise.

"We have reached the end." Yun Zihai turned his head and said.

In front of them, it was the end of the passage, blocked by mud, and there was no way forward.

Xu Bai came closer, raised his hand, touched the mud on the wall, and smiled.

"This is new soil. I think you two can withdraw the flying swords. If I guess correctly, every road has been blocked." Xu Bai said.

New soil?

Yun Zihai and others were slightly stunned, and then stepped forward to check and found that it was indeed the case.

"If that's the case, someone blocked the road on purpose." Qin Feng said.

"At the beginning, we all forgot the most important question. The other party may just want to stop us." Xu Bai said slowly: "The more he stops us, the more he exposes his existence."

At this point, Xu Bai pointed to the soil in front of him and slowly said two words.

"Start smashing."

Since they want to block them, they will continue to move forward. They must do the opposite. After all, the more things the other side wants to block, the more they will definitely have a chance to do it.

With new discoveries, everyone is naturally excited.

Several people started to act without hesitation.

The flying sword was taken back by Qin Feng and Chu Yu, and then they each used their own methods to start chiseling the soil in front of them.

Not long ago, when the four people joined forces, a lake could be hollowed out alive, let alone these soils?

The soil in front of them began to disappear rapidly at a speed visible to the naked eye.

After digging for about an incense stick of time, the soil in front of them collapsed.

Behind this passage is a larger space.

There was no one in the space, and there were no extra things.

"No one here." Chu Yu touched her long black hair.

"Search." Xu Bai said.

Everyone began to search along this space.

Although the space was large, it was mostly empty. Soon, Xu Bai found something in the soil.

In the soil they broke, a white color emerged.

Xu Bai pulled out the ghost-head knife, picked up the soil, and saw the whole picture of the things under the soil.

——Paper man.

A tattered paper man was lying in the soil.

In the hand of the paper man, there was a paper shovel.

There was still soil on the paper shovel. Obviously, this passage was sealed by the paper man.

"Paper man, Chen family."

Yun Zihai frowned after seeing this scene.

The Chen family has always been on their suspect list and has been closely monitored, and the paper man is the Chen family's signature skill.

"It seems that as I see, the other party can no longer hold back the exposure of this lake." Xu Bai looked at the paper man in front of him and smiled.

Blocking the way in advance is to delay their time.

Xu Bai turned his head and looked behind him.

There are three more holes next to the exit. Obviously, the three forks in the road before all lead here.

"Why do four roads lead to the same destination?" Yun Zihai said.

"Of course there is a reason." Xu Bai said mysteriously: "My guess seems to be verified."

"Oh?" Yun Zihai said: "Brother Xu, what do you guess?"

Xu Bai's appearance made Qin Feng and Chu Yu look curious.

"Master, don't keep us in suspense." Chu Yu came in front of Xu Bai and pulled Xu Bai's sleeve.

Xu Bai smiled and said, "I have always suspected that this place has a lot to do with the relief in the passage. I saw it before. The relief in the passage was newly made, but even a fool would not make reliefs for others to see."

"Have you ever thought about whether they would dig all the passages in the entire Yunlai Mansion? The relief is more like a map corresponding to each passage."

"The relief is not for others to see, but for their own people to see. After all, the tunnel is different from the outside. Only the relief in the outside world can produce reflections."

The relief is related to each street, and it is vividly depicted, which explains this point very well.

And the four roads just now lead to another destination. If it is not a tunnel, it is just taking off pants to fart, which is unnecessary.

But Xu Bai still has two points that he can't figure out, that is, what is the relationship between this place and Yun Zihai and Chu Yu.

Yun Zihai's momentum has changed, and Chu Yu feels disgusted, which means that this place is related to them.

However, Xu Bai did not say it, but prepared to continue looking for clues.

"What is the purpose of them digging so many tunnels?" Qin Feng said.

Xu Bai shook his head: "I don't know, maybe it's for sneak attacks, or other purposes, but it's definitely not a good thing."

Everyone fell silent.

"Brother Yun, no matter what, it's time to close the net and clean up the Chen family." Xu Bai said: "After this night, the person named Hongfen must know that she has been exposed, so she can't fish anymore."

Since she dared to send someone from the Chen family, Hongfen must have made some preparations. This fish is not easy to catch.

At the end of this space, there is another passage, which is obviously where the people of the Chen family escaped.

"Chase." Xu Bai rushed in that direction without saying anything.

Everyone looked at each other and followed Xu Bai.

...

All the way, along this road, everyone almost drove non-stop.

There was no fork in the road, and no one blocked it, and it was unimpeded all the way.

As Xu Bai walked, he found a faint light not far ahead.

"Is it the end?"

After seeing this light, everyone quickened their pace.

After a while, the light at the exit became brighter and brighter.

When everyone filed out of the exit, it was like a new space after a dark tunnel.

This was a huge cave, with dozens of night-shining pearls hanging on the wall. The light just now was the light of the night-shining pearls.

Under the illumination of the night-shining pearls, the ground below was shining with light.

Countless coffins were arranged one after another.

The night-shining pearls were shining brightly, and under the illumination of the night-shining pearls, the coffins looked a bit gloomy.

At this moment, Xu Bai suddenly pressed Yun Zihai's shoulders.

Yun Zihai turned his head blankly, not knowing why.

"Retract your momentum." Xu Bai said.

As Xu Bai finished speaking, Yun Zihai finally reacted.

There was a unique and sharp momentum rising from Yun Zihai.

If Yun Zihai was a scholar as gentle as jade before, then Yun Zihai at this moment was a sword, a sword with cold light flashing.

The momentum was so strong that even Yun Zihai could feel it.

"Why am I like this?" Yun Zihai lowered his head, feeling incredible.

On the other side, Chu Yu's state was different.

The innocence in Chu Yu's eyes disappeared, replaced by endless disgust.

"So annoying, so annoying!" Chu Yu rubbed his forehead, unable to control it at all.

Xu Bai walked to Chu Yu again and patted Chu Yu's shoulder.

Chu Yu hugged Xu Bai's arm with his backhand, with a blank face: "Xu Bai, I can't control it."

At this time, Chu Yu didn't even call him Master.

Xu Bai patted Chu Yu's head and said: "Maybe, everything will be revealed here."

He turned his eyes to the coffins and walked up slowly.

There were no words on the coffins, and there was no monument here.

When Xu Bai came closer, Chu Yu hugged Xu Bai's arm and followed him forward.

The closer to the coffin, the more disgusted Chu Yu felt.

"Brother Xu, I have a special feeling, that is to open these coffins." Yun Zihai said, and the fierce momentum on his body could not be controlled at all, and it surged out crazily.

On the other side, Chu Yu also nodded, with disgust on his face.

"Since you want to open it, then open it and see."

Xu Bai walked to less than one meter away from the coffin and stopped, pulling out the ghost-head knife from his waist and sticking it to the gap of the coffin...
