    Another six hours passed, Shen Wangyan closed his eyes and rested his mind, and heard the sound of the tomb door opening.After a while, Jiang Ning came back disappointed and sat down beside him.

    "Five doors have been opened, and they haven't come out yet."

    Shen Wangyan opened his eyes, and saw that it was the door on the far right that opened this time.According to his speculation, these elevator rooms not only moved up and down, but also moved left and right, so they came out from different doors than before.Counting from the opening of the first door, one door was opened every three hours. In the past twelve hours in total, five doors were opened.Although Jiang Ning opened the door herself, only one door was opened in the past six hours, which is enough to confirm this guess.

    Young Master Shen pondered for a moment and said: "They may have entered the main tomb, not the auxiliary room like us."

    Jiang Ning: "If they do enter the main tomb, they probably won't open until the last one, so we'll have to wait at least another six hours."

    Shen Wangyan nodded: "Wait."

    ...

    This is the sixth hour that Bao Le and Jun Zhi have been trapped in the main tomb.

    If it was said that in the corridor before, at least there was still hope of finding the mechanism, but now these six hours are really nothing but despair.There are no traps, no secret doors, no food, no water.There is a white jade gate, but it cannot be opened.There is a room full of gold, silver and jewelry, but if you can't get out, it's just a pile of scrap copper and rotten iron.

    The water and food I brought were not much at first, and now most of them have been consumed, and I don't know how long the rest can last.

    Bao Le's eyes turned red, showing a perverted expression: "Jun Zhi, what do you think this princess tastes like, is it as crunchy as chicken~"

    Jun Zhi patted her on the head.

    "Don't learn from Jiang Ning."

    Bao Le hugged his head and wailed for a while, Jun Zhi handed her his biscuit again.

    This time Bao Le hesitated for a moment. During their journey, including the six hours trapped in the main tomb, she never saw Jun Zhi eat or drink.

    Jun Zhi looked at her with the most knowledge-seeking eyes looking at him, feeling a little helpless for a while.

    "I can live ten to fifteen days without food or drink," he said. "You can't."

    Bao Le didn't believe it: "It's okay if you don't eat, it's not bad for ordinary people to live for three days without drinking water."

    "..."

    Jun Zhi said: "I am a little different from ordinary people."

    His hearing and eyesight are excellent, and his explosion and durability are far stronger than ordinary people, not to mention that he can do some movements that ordinary people cannot do.Bao Le is the only person who has seen him turn around twice in the air, and run vertically against the wall in defiance of gravity.If it is said that the explosion and durability of hearing and vision can be strengthened through acquired training, then such an anti-human movement, don't know how he practiced it.The muscles and bones of his whole body seemed to have been reshaped. His body was extremely soft and could be twisted into a terrifying appearance. However, this softness also had an unimaginable hardness at the same time. You really couldn't believe it unless you saw it with your own eyes.

    But also the quick healing ability of his wounds.

    Let's say he is a human being, he is indeed not as strong as a human being.But if he is not human, he seems to be able to reach the limit of human beings in everything.

    Bao Le spoke slowly: "So you are...Superman?"

    Jun Zhi laughed.

    "My body's metabolism is much slower than that of ordinary people."

    Bao Le is like a good student, his face is full of seeking knowledge.

    Jun Zhi said: "Because the metabolism is slow, you don't need to take in too much energy. Because you consume less, it's harder to feel tired. When you get hurt, it doesn't hurt very much, so you can bear it more than ordinary people. There are some trainings. They doNo, but I can."

    Bao Le stared at him dumbfounded.

    "There's nothing wrong with that."

    "If it weren't for these differences, I wouldn't be here today."

    She had never heard Jun Zhi say so many words at once. When he said these words, there was a sternness in his bones, but he didn't know where the sadness came from.

    After Jun Zhi said these words, he glanced sideways at her.

    Just this one glance, even if Jiang Baole couldn't understand it back then, it was buried deep in his memory for a long, long time.

    "I..." Bao Le was about to say something.

    Jun Zhi's expression changed and he stopped her.He stood up slowly and looked towards the white jade gate where they came in.Bao Le showed half of his head from behind him, and also noticed that the white jade door seemed to be slowly opening again.

    When the Baiyu Gate was fully opened, what was displayed in front of them was not the stone statue road before, but another completely unfamiliar corridor.

    Bao Le stood up and complained: "How many tunnels have been built in this tomb."

    But the complaints are the complaints, the two still have to find out, after all, there will be no worse ending than being trapped in the main tomb and buried with Princess You.

    This corridor is not too wide, and it goes all the way down. After walking for about ten minutes, a stone door that is not too big appears in front of it.If this tomb is connected to the main tomb, it is likely to be the side chamber of the entire tomb.The two walked over cautiously. The good news is that there are no traps along the way.

    Compared with the entire tomb, this stone gate is quite simple, without any extra textures, and it is also the size of a normal gate.

    Jun Zhi pushed the door, and the stone door moved, but it didn't open.The two of them could see a bolt inside the door through the crack of the door, and the material was similar to that of Shimen.

    Bao Le took out the ceramic knife that Jun Zhi had given her before, thinking she was familiar with it, and it was the kind shown in TV dramas: insert the knife through the crack of the door, and then slide it a little until the latch hits the ground, and the door can be opened.

    The little girl with rich theoretical knowledge and full of confidence, tried hard for ten minutes, knelt down and handed the ceramic knife to the original owner: "I'm sorry, sir, I was careless!"

    Jun Zhi took the knife expressionlessly, for some reason, Bao Le felt that he was smiling.

    The two entered the side room.

    Bao Le put his hand under his nose and frowned slightly.This tomb should have been dusty for a long time, the dust is very heavy, and the air quality is not good, but for a Sichuan tomb, it can be considered dry.I want to emphasize this point because there are quite a few bamboo slips and wooden slips in this tomb. After thousands of years of baptism, they are still well preserved.

    This tomb is not a simple side room, because it is not used to pile funeral objects or coffins. If you want to describe it, it is more like a room for people.

    On the right side of the tomb is a bed with various daily necessities. Judging from these things, the person who lived here for a long time should be an elderly woman.There are mirrors, combs and hairpins on the table, and there is a walking stick by the bedside.

    On the left side of the tomb, they saw a table with a white bone lying on a rattan chair beside the table.

    It's not that Bao Le is so courageous that he didn't scream when he saw the bones.Perhaps when she entered this tomb and saw the living room on the right, she guessed the current scene.She looked at the bone from a distance, except for the sparse gray hair, and the dress that only rich people could afford, she noticed that the bone was holding a comb in his hand.Maybe it can't be called a comb, this is a grate with denser teeth than a comb.

    Emerald grate.

    Bao Le sat down at the desk full of bamboo slips and wooden slips, picked up a roll of bamboo slips on the table, and blew the ash on it. The ash had accumulated for many years and could not be easily blown off, so she wiped it with her hands again..

    Open the bamboo slips, and there are lines of elegant Xiaozhuan.The bamboo slips are well preserved, and even after so many years, you can still see what was written.Bao Le is a major in restoration of cultural relics, and has a little dabble in Xiaozhuan. Although it is not as good as Shen Yan's attainments, it is not difficult to understand these, it just takes a little time.

    Seeing that she was watching carefully, Jun Zhi didn't rush her, instead he found an open space to sit down, closed his eyes and waited.

    Unexpectedly, Bao Le read it for four or five hours until his neck became sore.The flashlight finally couldn't hold it anymore, and it returned to darkness after blinking twice.Bao Le took out the previous light stick and folded it in half. After the liquid in the light stick was mixed, a light blue fluorescence gradually appeared.

    She walked to Jun Zhi's side, and saw that his eyes were closed, she wanted to startle him, so she moved her face closer on purpose.

    Jun Zhi suddenly opened his eyes.

    Bao Le didn't scare anyone but was startled by the opponent, one of them lost his footing and almost fell down.Jun Zhi's hand quickly grabbed her arm first, and pulled her towards him.Bao Le only felt that he had slammed into the opponent's body, and there was no charming picture, and Junzhi was completely fine, only she was knocked by the opponent's generous and hard shoulder.

    It might as well let her fall by herself, struggling to sit up from the opponent's arms, the little girl rubbed her nose pitifully.

    I don't know if it was her illusion, but under the light of the cyan fluorescent stick, Jun Zhi turned his face slightly.

    This is a guilty conscience, this is definitely a guilty conscience!

    Bao Le clutched his sore nose and complained angrily: "You pretend to be sleeping to scare me!"

    "..."

    "Forget it, I'm not such a stingy person, so I won't argue with you this time."

    After a while, Bao Le said again: "By the way, you give me the walkie-talkie. I lost it in the tunnel before. We have traveled so far, and I don't know if there is a signal here. What if we can contact them."

    Jun Zhi handed over the walkie-talkie.

    ...

    With more than ten minutes left before the final time, Jiang Ning was very anxious, which was specifically reflected in the fact that she had been pacing back and forth in the false front room since five minutes ago.Although she didn't wear high heels this time, she was able to step on the shoes out of the rhythm of high heels.

    Shen Wangyan was still resting with his eyes closed just like before.

    Shen San was shaking his legs according to her rhythm.

    Suddenly, the sound of electric current came from the walkie-talkie on Shen Wangyan's body.

    Shen San and Jiang Ning looked over at the same time, and Shen Wangyan also took out the walkie-talkie with a little surprise.Just when he got out of the walkie-talkie, the little girl's familiar and sweet voice came from the walkie-talkie.

    "Niu Niu Niu ~ wake up early every morning ~ eat grass ~ milk milk ~"

    Jiang Ning couldn't hold it back, her originally tense face burst out laughing on the spot, and she clutched her forehead when she was done, feeling superfluous for the broken heart of these ten hours.

    Shen Wangyan suppressed a smile, and pressed the communication button calmly.

    "Bao Le?"

    There was silence on the other end of the intercom, and then a sentence with a huge decibel came.

    "Ah, Shen Wangyan! I heard your voice, I am not dreaming!"

    "It's me, are you injured, where is Jun Zhi?"

    "Jun Zhi is fine, I have taken good care of him," Bao Le said happily, and then continued, "I'm fine."

    Shen Wangyan was relieved: "Okay, listen to me, the mechanism of this tomb is timed. We speculate that a door should be opened every three hours. It has been almost eighteen hours now. In theory, it should be yours.The door on the side is about to open, you ask Jun Zhi to check if there is a door."

    Bao Le put down the walkie-talkie, they all thought of the door they found in the labyrinth, at worst they just went back the same way, but Jun Zhi still planned to check if there was a door in the tomb they were staying in now.

    "There is a door!" Bao Le was excited.

    Shen Wangyan stretched out his hand and looked at his watch: "Okay, then wait another ten minutes."

    After they finished talking, Jiang Ning snatched the walkie-talkie from Shen Wangyan's hand: "You little heartless person, you don't know how to ask others?"

    "Oh yes," Bao Le's voice came from the intercom, "How is Shen San, and Shen Qi!"

    Seeing that the smile on Jiang Meiren's face became more and more cruel, Shen San couldn't help but hastened to rescue the walkie-talkie: "Xiao Jiang, we are all fine, but Shen Qi should still be inspecting the cultural relics on the altar, not with us."

    "Oh, let me tell you, I just came out of the main tomb. There is not enough stuff on the altar to fit between my teeth. You can believe that there are a hundred and eighty night pearls alone! I also saw a lot of famous calligraphy. It looks likeIt's stolen goods, so hurry up and call the police when you get out, it doesn't mean that this tomb is a place to hide stolen goods."

    Both Jiang Ning and Shen Wangyan were stunned for a moment, they looked at each other, and Young Master Shen nodded with a serious expression.

    "Also, this is a princess tomb. The main coffin belonged to Princess Han, and her husband was buried together."

    Bao Le held the walkie-talkie, facing the door, took a deep breath and said slowly: "Besides, I know one thing."

    As Bao Le's voice just fell, the stone door of the tomb slowly opened, and the five people who had been separated by eighteen hours finally met again.
