Chapter 258: Luxurious Underground Palace
People often say that a pool of spring water is blown out, which is actually a very beautiful scene, but at this time, the pool of water on Qitao Mountain is not wrinkled, but mixed.
In this quiet night, dozens of big men were staring at a small pond, holding all sorts of things stirring in the water. To be honest, this is really not a nice scene, on the contrary, this scene is a bit scary.
Facing Shangguan Jinhong's blunt solicitation, Mu Xiaojiu didn't say anything, just shrugged his shoulders with a smile, and then said: "Shangguan Gang Leader, looking at the male tyrant standing behind you, I, a person who has a grudge against him, really dare not stand in your team." Besides, if I really become your subordinate, then where will I put my big brother Qiao? ”
"That's right." Shangguan Jinhong nodded, and there was no abnormality on his face, "Then, I can't tell when, you will die." ”
Mu Xiaojiu narrowed his eyes, and before he could speak, he saw Qiao Feng suddenly come forward and pull Mu Xiaojiu behind him, "Oh? Qiao really wanted to see how the Shangguan Gang took my brother's life. ”
Shangguan Jinhong smiled and nodded at Mu Xiaojiu and Qiao Feng, then turned around and left.
With this turmoil, people on both sides no longer have any desire to talk, so they each find a place to rest and start waiting for the ugly time to come.
Of course, Mu Xiaojiu was not idle, nor did he pull his friends to chat like others, but gathered the disciples of Peach Blossom Island together first.
Speaking of which, these disciples of Peach Blossom Island all joined the team as scattered people after being recruited by righteous people, although the number of people was not much compared to the large army, but there were almost more than thirty people.
"Guys, I don't know if you know me, if you don't, I'll introduce myself first. My name is Mu Xiaojiu, and I am the only official disciple among the players of Peach Blossom Island, which means that I am equivalent to your senior brother. ”
"I know that there must be some of you who are not convinced by me, and I am not in the mood to play any game of proof with you. Now I just want to tell you that after you enter the treasure field, take care of yourself, because no one else will take care of you. You guys are so self-conscious, and try to hold as many groups as possible. ”
"To be honest, whether you die or not has nothing to do with me, I will tell you this, but because my Peach Blossom Island is different from other sects, they are often tens of thousands of disciples, and our Peach Blossom Island now has less than 10,000 disciples, and many people can't return to the sect after they die, so I don't want too many people to die."
After speaking, Mu Xiaojiu turned around and left directly, leaving the remaining Peach Blossom Island disciples either surprised, nervous, or disdainful, and too lazy to distinguish a word.
Mu Xiaojiu seems to have done a lot of things, but in fact he is a very lazy person. From the beginning to the present, every time he makes a move, it is either for what he wants, or because others have violated his interests or those of his friends.
Other than that, he was too lazy to do anything.
The life and death of these Peach Blossom Island disciples really have nothing to do with him, and a reminder by the way can be regarded as benevolence and righteousness. If they really encountered danger in the tomb, Mu Xiaojiu would probably not bother to take a look.
After warning these people, Mu Xiaojiu ran to the hunters and chatted with them.
"Guys, I have a few questions for you." Mu Xiaojiu said very politely.
"Little brother, you can just ask if there is anything." The old hunter nodded, the previous incident of the Night Pearl made him still have some admiration for Mu Xiaojiu, so he didn't drag it out.
Mu Xiaojiu smiled at the old hunter, and then pointed to the waterhole, "Uncle, has this waterhole always been as clear as it is now?" ”
The old hunter thought for a moment, and then nodded affirmatively, "That's right, this waterhole has always been very clear, and when I rest here, sometimes when the water runs out, I will come here to fetch water or wash my face." ”
Mu Xiaojiu looked around thoughtfully, and then thanked the old hunter.
Time passed little by little, and soon, it was already the middle of the moon. The old hunter looked at the sky, estimated the time again, and then nodded affirmatively, "It's almost ugly, but looking at this sky, it seems that it is about to rain." ”
The Sun Moon God Sect Qinglong Hall Master, the yellow-faced Venerable Jia Bu sneered, and glanced at the old hunter, "The moon is so big, it's hard to find even a cloud in the sky, what kind of rain is it?" Aren't you old fellow a demon? ”
The old hunter shook his head, and he didn't bother to argue, but the Blue Phoenix of the Five Poisons Sect shook his head, "No, it's really going to rain, and the insects on my body are a little restless." ”
"Huh?" Mu Xiaojiu's face turned pale.
Shangguan Jinhong and Ma Yu glanced at each other, nodded at the same time, and asked his subordinates to press down the three mechanisms under the water.
At the moment when the three mechanisms were pressed at the same time, there was a sudden "click" sound in the pool, and then, I saw that the bottom of the pool suddenly trembled, and then, the bottom of the pool began to separate to both sides.
But Mu Xiaojiu saw that the water level of this waterhole had not dropped much.
Some of the others had apparently noticed the incident, and a bit of a strange look appeared on their faces. And when the bottom of the pool was completely gone, everyone walked to the edge of the pool, looked down, and then they were all shocked.
"What? This, how is the bottom of this pool still water? How can there be so much water here? ”
Mu Xiaojiu, who was in the back, smiled and secretly confirmed the conjecture in his heart.
"Let's go, leave this alone, get into the water." Shangguan Jinhong listened to the noisy voices of those people, couldn't help frowning, and said coldly.
With Shangguan Jinhong's order, many people jumped into the water "poof" and "poof", but there were still many people standing there on the shore, looking at each other with strange faces.
Shangguan Jinhong glanced around, there were not many people left who did not go into the water, most of them were those who could get on the stage and were worried about being plotted. Therefore, Shangguan Jinhong did not grind, and said directly: "Let's not make any mistakes, let's go into the water directly, and the province is worried about this and that." ”
For Shangguan Jinhong's proposal, no one else had any objections, because it was impossible to find another way to satisfy everyone.
So, the people who had not yet entered the water spontaneously formed a circle next to the waterhole, and then counted together: "Three." ”
"Two."
"One, get into the water!"
Mu Xiaojiu was also one of the second batch of people who went into the water, because he noticed that Xiongba had been staring at him, and he dared to say that if he had gone into the water first, it was not certain that these people would still be as "harmonious" as they are now.
This is not because Mu Xiaojiu is inexplicably confident, but because he is sure that if he goes into the water first, Xiongba will definitely make a move. As soon as Xiongba made a move, Qiao Feng would definitely not watch Mu Xiaojiu get injured, so he would take action to stop it. And once these two people fight, it is estimated that everyone will all have to fight.
Fortunately, now that everyone is in the water together, Mu Xiaojiu is sandwiched between Qiao Feng and Feng Siniang again, although the male bully is powerful, he didn't dare to make any changes for a while.
"This waterhole looks deep, but once you come down, you will find that it is not that deep." After coming out of the water, Qiao Feng stood beside Mu Xiaojiu and said with a smile.
Mu Xiaojiu responded, looked up at the surroundings, and then said, "Unexpectedly, there is a hole under this water." With such a big project, I can't imagine how those people hid the treasure here at that time. ”
That's right, this place is indeed worthy of the words "there is no cave".
When you come out of the water, you can directly step on a platform, and there are four stone palace lanterns at each corner of the platform. The lighting tools in these four palace lamps are not flames, but incomparably bright night pearls.
Standing on the platform and looking up, there is another step, there have been people before, there are a total of ninety-nine steps, not to mention the high steps, and the slope is relatively large. When Mu Xiaojiu went into the water, he had noticed that the direction in which this step went up was probably the direction of the mountainside.
In this way, the height of the stairs and the dungeon can be explained.
After going up the steps, you can see a huge stone door, the stone door is nailed with copper nails, and there is a large plaque at the top, which seems to be made of gold, and there are three large characters engraved on it - "Nantianmen." ”
And this is probably just the tip of the iceberg of the underground palace, not to mention, what is said above is probably not the most luxurious thing in front of you.
The most luxurious thing is on the roof of the underground palace - on it, a night pearl with gems is actually inlaid with a "three hundred and sixty-five weeks of heavenly stars." ”
"The owner of this dungeon is really rich...... "Looking at the gems on the roof of the shed, Feng Siniang couldn't help but burst into a foul mouth, it seems that women really have no resistance to gems.
Mu Xiaojiu and Qiao Feng looked at each other and smiled, but they didn't say anything to Feng Siniang.
In fact, Feng Siniang is not alone, she is not alone, because now, except for a few people such as Shangguan Jinhong, most of the others are looking at the roof of the shed in a daze.
To be honest, if Mu Xiaojiu wasn't a little wealthy, I'm afraid he would be just as distracted. After all, these three hundred and sixty-five gems are exchanged for money after they are made, but I am afraid that the money exchanged is enough for a person to have enough food and clothing for a lifetime. Even if it's just a gemstone, I'm afraid the price is not much less.
There are a total of eight corners on the upper and lower platforms, and there are three night pearls in each corner, adding up to twenty-four night pearls; In addition, there are three hundred and sixty-five precious stones in the roof, making a total of three hundred and eighty-nine precious stones. If you convert it into money, it can be said that there are countless amounts.
