Under the guidance of the guide, they found the entrance to the mine under a tombstone and entered the mine.
"Everyone, be careful. Don't fall behind.”
Zhang Qishan walked at the front and said to the people behind him.
The group walked through a narrow passage and arrived at the entrance of the ancient tomb in the bronze mine.
Zhang Qishan ordered the servants to open the bronze tomb door. When the bronze tomb door opened, a gust of cold wind blew out from the tomb door. The servants who were in charge of opening the door were blown by the wind. They looked like they had lost their souls. Their eyes were dull and their bodies were stiff as they walked into the tomb door.
Zhang Qishan, who was standing at the back, realized that something was wrong. He immediately went forward and grabbed the back of the last person's neck, but he was flung away.
Zhang Qishan stood up and shouted to Er Yuehong and the others behind him,""Second Master, Adjutant, quickly come and help. They have lost their souls.”
Er Yuehong and the adjutant rushed into the tomb door when they heard that, but Xiang Qian, who was standing at the side, entered the tomb door first.
Xiang Qian entered the tomb door and faced the few people who had lost their souls. He cut the back of their necks one by one and knocked them unconscious.
When Zhang Qishan, Er Yuehong, the adjutant, and Qi Tiezui came in, they saw the servants lying on the ground.
"Lord Xiang, good skills!"
Qi Tiezui sized up the surrounding walls of the tomb as he flattered Xiang Qian.
Xiang Qian did not give Qi Tiezui a chance and instead walked forward. Qi Tiezui did not care about it and followed behind Xiang Qian.
Just as Zhang Qishan arranged for someone to guard the fainted servant, Xiang Qian's voice sounded in front of him.
"Lord Zeng, Second Master, come and see!”
Zhang Qishan and Er Yuehong came to Xiang Qian and Qi Tiezui's side and looked ahead.
"There are so many coffin pits but no coffins. Could it be that the coffins on the train were pulled out from here?”
Zhang Qishan frowned.
"Eh? Lord Zeng, why is there so much hair here?”
Qi Tiezui saw a lot of hair on the wall. He called out to Zhang Qishan and was about to touch it.
"Don't move, stay away from it!"
Zhang Qishan hurriedly called out to Qi Tiezui.
"This hair is alive and will drill into a person's body. The last time I came with the adjutant, this hair got into my hand. It was only taken out by the second master who brought me back to find him.”
Hearing this, Eryue Hong nodded beside Zhang Qishan, indicating that what Zhang Qishan said was true.
Xiang Qian heard their conversation and went forward to take a look curiously. Needless to say, it really looked like hair.
"Lord Xiang, be careful!"
Er Yuehong saw Xiang Qian approaching the wall to look at his hair and hurriedly reminded him.
"It's fine. I'm just curious. I've never seen such a creature before.”
"Haha, Lord Xiang, if you visit the tomb often in the future, there will be plenty of such strange things in the tomb. It will definitely be an eye-opener for you," Qi Tiezui said with a smile.”
"Hehe, then I'll need your Nine Gates to take care of me in the future. I hope that you can call me if there's a chance in the future.”
Xiang Qian did not have the ability to find Long Dianxue yet, nor did he have any subordinates, so he could only rely on the people of the Nine Gates to enter the tomb in the future. Xiang Qian said this in preparation for going to the tomb with the Nine Gates in the future. He first greeted Zhang Qishan and the others so that they could inform him when they discovered the tomb in the future.
"Don't worry. Since Lord Xiang is willing to enter the tomb, the Nine Gates will definitely ask Lord Xiang to join them if they discover any ancient tombs in the future.”
Zhang Qishan and Er Yuehong answered Xiang Qian without thinking too much. This could be considered as returning Xiang Qian's kindness for curing the girl. Xiang Qian also knew that Zhang Qishan and February Hong had agreed to bring him to the tombs in the future to return the favor, but this was exactly what Xiang Qian hoped for. After all, the system mission required him to follow five tombs under the nine sects.
Everyone avoided the strange hair and continued to walk deeper into the tomb. Just as they reached the middle of the tomb, someone triggered the mechanism in the tomb. A rain of arrows shot out from both sides of the catacomb towards the people standing in the middle.
"Be careful!"
Xiang Qian pulled Qi Tiezui, who was beside him, and used the torch in his hand to knock off the arrows that were shot at him and Qi Tiezui. At the same time, he followed Zhang Qishan and the others to the end of the tomb.
Everyone ran to the end of the tomb, but the rain of arrows could not reach them.
"Phew, phew, phew. Thank you, Lord Xiang. If you hadn't brought me along, I would have died here.”
Qi Tiezui panted heavily as he thanked Xiang Qian.
"It's nothing. It's just a piece of cake."
Xiang Qian expressed that there was no need to be polite. He turned around and looked at the huge stone door in front of him.
Zhang Qishan called his adjutant over and asked him to count the number of people he had lost.
The adjutant turned around and began to count the number of people. After a few minutes, the adjutant said to Zhang Qishan,"Lord Zeng, we lost a total of 15 brothers, and four of them suffered some superficial injuries.”
Zhang Qishan couldn't help but frown. He had just entered the tomb, and so many guards had already been killed in the tomb path. He didn't know how many people would follow him out after this trip.
After thinking about it, Zhang Qishan asked his adjutant to arrange for his injured brother. He came to the stone door and looked at it with Xiang Qian, Er Yuehong, and Qi Tiezui.
Qi Tiezui looked at Zhang Qishan and asked,"Lord Zeng, look, there are no mechanisms around this stone door. How can we open it? Why don't we get someone to smash it open?"
"No, this stone door is hollow in the middle and filled with a large amount of mercury. Once it is exposed to external forces, it will release a large amount of poisonous gas.”Zhang Qishan rejected Qi Tiezui's suggestion.
"Then what should we do?" Xiang Qian asked.”
"It's okay. Leave it to Lord Zeng. He has a way.”Before Zhang Qishan could speak, February Hong answered Xiang Qian first.
Zhang Qishan stretched out his right hand and knocked on the stone door with his finger. Then, he pointed at a small ditch under the stone door and said,"As long as the mercury in the stone door is released and flows away through this small ditch, it will be fine.”
After saying that, Zhang Qishan put his right index finger and middle finger together into a sword shape and stabbed it under the stone door that he had knocked on for the last time.
"Kacha!"
Zhang Qishan inserted his finger into the stone door. He used his finger to turn the stone door, and then used two fingers to pick out a small stone with mercury on one side. Then, the mercury in the stone door slowly flowed out through the small hole.
Xiang Qian's eyes were filled with envy when he saw this two-finger exploration skill. However, he was not too envious. He believed that as long as he completed the missions issued by the system, he would obtain this skill sooner or later.
