The three of them stopped, turned off the light and looked ahead with their breath. After a while, the sound of tapping came from the darkness in front of them, and a light that was slight and dark, slowly "walked" from a distance.

When the footsteps came more than ten meters in front of them, Lao Wang suddenly twisted the flashlight and shouted:

"who!"

Lao Wang's voice sounded in the crack like an explosion. The person who came from the darkness was caught off guard and exclaimed, "Ah!" and fell to the ground, and the oil lamp in his hand fell to the ground and broke.

The three of them turned on the flashlight together, and a terrified face appeared under the light.

"Village, village chief?" Zi Yang couldn't help but open his mouth wide after seeing the man's face.

Under the light, this thin and short, gray-haired old man is Qin Xianghe, the village chief of Qin Han Village.

Lao Wang also recognized him and hurriedly walked up to help him: "Damn it! Why are you here, old man?"

Qin Xianghe saw Lao Wang approaching, so scared that he retreated repeatedly, his eyes filled with fear.

Old Wang stood there in surprise, turned around and looked at Zi Yang and Su Rui and asked, "Old man, what's wrong with this?"

Zi Yang suddenly thought that when they came to Qinhan Village last year, they were with Professor Zhang and the others, and Qin Xianghe must have mistakenly thought that he was in the same group as Professor Zhang and the others.

Seeing Qin Xianghe keep retreating, Zi Yang quickly stopped Lao Wang who was about to chase after him and whispered: "Captain, don't be afraid. We are different from that group of people. They are bad people. We, we are here to help you!"

This sentence had an effect. Qin Xianghe no longer retreated, but he still didn't say anything, standing in the distance and looking at them suspiciously.

"It's true! You, do you still remember Wang Juan? It's the one who talks to Qin Ruilin..." Zi Yang stammered and explained to Qin Xianghe, for fear that he would accidentally scare him away.

"Who is with Ruilin is another daughter. They died on the mountain, dead..."

Qin Xianghe finally spoke. When he mentioned the tragedy that happened last year, the dry old man's mouth sagged and his face was full of tears.

"Yes, there are two more people, Chen Ruixi and Wang Juan, right? The girl named Wang Juan was later captured by the bad guy named Zhang, and we just rescued her!" Old Wang shamelessly took Jin Guoqiang's credit on himself.

Qin Xianghe looked at him suspiciously: "Where is Ruixi? Is Ruixi still alive?"

Lao Wang stammered and said, "This, we don't know, we should still be alive, right? We only rescued that woman - you, take us out, let's ask Wang Juan together, maybe she knows about Ruixi!"

Lao Wang also understood that Qin Xianghe, who appeared here for "inexplicably", might have mastered the secret of leaving the underground cave. In order to escape from this dangerous cave, Lao Wang began to rack his brains to win Qin Xianghe's trust.

Who would have thought it would be fine if Chen Ruixi was not mentioned. When Qin Xianghe mentioned his name, he looked angry:

"This little buff has caused such a big disaster and has caused everyone to be like this. I'll die sooner!"

Zi Yang and Lao Wang looked at each other. It seemed that the old village chief had a deep resentment towards Chen Ruixi, but thinking about it was true. If it weren't for him stealing explosives to fry fish, Qin Ruilin and Jin Xia would still be alive, Qin Han Village was still in a peaceful and prosperous era, and the villagers lived and worked in peace and contentment, unlike now, which was displaced and devastated.

"Old man, all the villagers have migrated, why are you the only one left to stay? How did you come here?" Su Rui asked softly.

Zi Yang also had the same question in his heart. The pool water outside was seventy or eighty meters deep. Can Qin Xianghe dive in without diving equipment?

Qin Xianghe rolled his eyelids to look at her, and said in a muffled voice: "Do you want to go out? When my ancestors built this place, they left a secret passage."

The three of them looked at each other with joy on their faces. It turns out that there is a way!

This old man must have entered the secret passage and hid while Professor Zhang's people were clearing the ground and lived in this dark underground. No wonder no one has noticed him.

"I remembered that when we were surrounded by gargoyles in the hall, someone whistled outside and led them away. That person was you, right?" Lao Wang said excitedly.

Qin Xianghe turned around and said, "If you want to go out, just follow me!"

Although Lao Wang’s question was not answered, it was already equivalent to default.

The three followed Qin Xianghe and walked forward between the narrow mountain walls. Zi Yang couldn't help but ask, "Uncle, are the people living in Qinhan Village really descendants of the Qin army?"

Qin Xianghe said without looking back: "The villagers of Qinhan Village are all descendants of the Qin army. His Majesty the First Emperor ordered the Jiuyuan Army to resist the Huns in the north, and even if the Qin Dynasty was destroyed, there was no need for reinforcements. He ordered the Lingnan Army to go to the Baiyue, and the same was true!

After the fall of the Qin Dynasty, hundreds of thousands of soldiers of the Lingnan Army became masterless and lonely souls. One of them was left here to build a home and has been passed down to this day."

Qin Xianghe spoke in an old-fashioned manner, and he still called Qin Shihuang "Your Majesty" in his words.

After hearing this, Lao Wang was shocked: "Damn, if hundreds of thousands of troops are fought back, Liu Bang and Xiang Yu can't beat you, right? You won't go back because of Qin Shihuang's words? Don't joke with me!"

Qin Xianghe remained silent.

Su Rui interrogated: "The Chu-Han coalition did not meet the main force of the Qin army back then. The two main forces in the south and north of Qin did not participate in the war. The Northern Legion only retreated to Guanzhong after the fall of Qin, but was destroyed by Xiang Yu in the Battle of Julu. The Southern Legion never returned to help. For thousands of years, historians have been puzzled by this."

Qin Xianghe looked back at Su Rui and muttered: "You two little guys know a lot."

Everyone understood that the two little guys he was talking about were referring to Su Rui, and the other one was definitely not referring to Lao Wang.

"When I interpret the mural, you are the one who makes the sound behind me, right?" Zi Yang asked tentatively. It seemed that Qin Xianghe had known that they had come in and had been secretly monitoring them.

Qin Xianghe did not comment and continued to walk forward, saying as he walked: "Thousands of cavalry of the Qixue Army came to Qinhan Village and clashed with the villagers. Although the descendants of the Qin army were numerous, they had been fishing and hunting for thousands of years, and their combat effectiveness was not as good as before. In addition, these Qixue Army were originally the elite of Kublai Khan, so the tribesmen were quickly defeated. However, at that time, there was a strange man in the Qixue Army, named Taoist Master Tianji. He came forward to stop the attack of the Qixue Army and saved the lives of the tribe."

Su Rui and Zi Yang looked at each other. It seemed that Zi Yang's guess was correct. The Taoist priest on the mural was a very critical figure. Now they realized that this person was called Taoist priest Tianji.

Qin Xianghe said in a nagging manner: "Later, Taoist Master Tianji had a peace talk with his clan members. He promised the clan leader that Qiexue Army would help us subdue the demons in the sinkhole. The clan members didn't believe him. But I don't know what method he used, but he actually caught a few flying dragons from the sinkhole and came back.

After seeing his methods, the tribe members admired him and were full of their bodies. At this time, Taoist Master Tianji said: He can help us seal the sinkhole forever and avoid the tribe members' hardships of living sacrifices-the condition is that the villagers will help them build an underground palace to suppress these underground demons."

Qin Xianghe said this, Lao Wang turned around and looked at Zi Yang and blinked: "You guessed it right when Lao Li has you!"

Zi Yang raised his fingers to his lips, signaling him to shut up and listen carefully to Qin Xianghe's words.

"After the completion of the Changsheng Palace, Taoist Master Tianji drew water to fill the pit. Taoist Master Tianji is really a god. It is said that he used the unique skills of Ziwei Doushu and Qimen Dunjia to build this underground palace. Tianchi blocked the pit, and there was still living water flowing inside!

Taoist Master Tianji said that as long as this palace does not fall, the people of the world will be peaceful forever. Taoist Master Tianji also promised to the descendants of the Qin army that as long as the tribesmen guard this ancient tomb, they will never invade this place forever."

"So, you have become gravekeepers?"

Zi Yang finally understood why these descendants of the Qin army concluded a peace agreement with the Qiexue army, and why they protected Kublai Khan's underground palace for generations.

What is recorded on the murals is actually historical deeds.

"Hey! The Qin Dynasty has been destroyed, whose tomb are you guarding?" Lao Wang suddenly spoke, with sarcasm in his words.

Qin Xianghe stopped and said with a sigh: "I guard the tomb of the Great Qin world! The people are the world! When the Great Qin is destroyed, the people are not destroyed!"

Qin Xianghe stood there majestic and majestic, and everyone was stunned!

These righteous words came out of his mouth, making people feel that his thin body has become much taller.

Qin Xianghe stood there straight for a while, as if he was suddenly relieved, and then he returned to his expression of bowing his waist and falling back, and continued to walk forward slowly.

Lao Wang, Su Rui and Zi Yang followed silently, and no one dared to say anything anymore.

After a while, Qin Xianghe said: "No matter what others think, at least after the completion of the Changsheng Palace, Qinhan Village has been in good weather and peace for thousands of years. Until that little beast stole explosives and attracted you outsiders..."

Qin Xianghe was so excited when he said this, he held the stone wall and coughed repeatedly.

"Old man, let's take a rest." Su Rui said softly. Before they knew it, they had been walking for a long time. The underground gap was turning around and there was no idea how many roads there were in front.

Qin Xianghe coughed and bent his waist, shook his head and said in pain: "I'm old and useless. The secrets of the tombkeeper are passed down from generation to generation, and it is the last generation to me. Cough cough... Originally, the tombkeeper's robe was to be passed on to Ruilin. I think he has been very talented since he was a child and has been secretly cultivating him, but... Cough cough cough..."

"Oh, uncle, don't worry? I see that you are still very strong. You can live for at least 30 or 50 years. If you have this time, find a good seedling in the village to cultivate..." Lao Wang said indifferently.

Qin Xianghe stopped coughing, raised his head and looked at Lao Wang panting, his eyes full of grief and anger.

Lao Wang suddenly remembered that all the villagers in Qinhan Village had been moved as a whole, and now this place has become a top player, and the old man has really no successor.

"If this really doesn't work, you can pass it on to me. I am a person who can keep a secret." Lao Wang said with his eyes wide open, looking quite sincere.

Qin Xiang turned his head peacefully and ignored him.

"Old man, what is the sacrificial palace enshrined in this immortal palace?" Su Rui asked suddenly.

"Nine Dings of King Yu! Don't you already know?" Qin Xianghe said angrily.

Su Rui and Zi Yang looked at each other, and then said, "Did this Yu King Jiuding bench bring this? Qi Xue Jun - the Taoist of Tianji and others?"

Qin Xianghe shook his head: "The Nine Dings were brought out by the Lingnan Army. When the ancestors came here, they were also to hide the traces of the Nine Dings."

Everyone was shocked. It turned out that the missing Nine Cauldrons were brought out by Qin Jun himself. What exactly prompted them to secretly transport this supreme treasure? There must be another tortuous story in it.

"Does Taoist Tianji know that the existence of these Nine Cauldrons?" Su Rui continued to ask.

Qin Xianghe hummed twice: "Of course Taoist Tianji knows it, and he knows more than us. It was Taoist Tianji who gave the idea to build the Palace of Changsheng underground and use Jiuding Town to put it in it."

Zi Yang suddenly remembered something and asked, "How did those exploration team members die?"
