The 20th Return: Outside the Cave, Golden Light Shines Brightly, Empty yet Solid, Min and Huang Unafraid

  The footsteps rose and fell, pounding against the nerves of those few people in the dark.

  A soldier said: "This place is so gloomy, who would hide here? Let's hurry up and leave!"

  But soon a soldier vetoed his suggestion: "General Han has already given the order, even if we have to dig three feet underground, we must bring out the person who raised the horse. Brothers, this broken house has not been searched yet, let's go in together, with so many of us, what are we afraid of?"

  Ma Fu was originally holding his breath, but when he heard that they were about to rush in, he didn't bother with these futile actions and would just finish them off with a few moves.

  However, the woman seemed to be able to predict the husband's movements and grabbed him with one hand.

  Suddenly, those soldiers who had pushed open the door heard a string of urgent voices, and this string of urgent voices was actually coming from behind them.

  The soldiers' hearts chilled, and they hastily turned around, but saw nothing.

  "This is really too weird, I clearly heard some sound, did you guys hear it?" a soldier asked.

  Other soldiers also said they heard it. Tiger Leopard 20

  The soldier's whole body was suddenly covered with goosebumps: "This place is eerie and ominous, brothers, let's retreat!"

  It wasn't until they heard them leave the yard that they finally let out a sigh of relief.

  But then Yin Feng suddenly exclaimed: "I... I have a dead person behind me!"

  Ma Fu laughed and said: "What kind of joke is Brother Yin playing?"

  The woman suddenly stood up, walked lightly to the position that Yin Feng had said, and when she really touched a cold hand, she also exclaimed, but quickly calmed down.

  The groom's courage was quite large, he quickly walked to the woman's side, stretched out his hand and touched it, and indeed there was a cold big hand. However, he did not immediately withdraw his hand, but instead made a strong effort, and the cold big hand was actually split in two by him with one palm.

  All he heard was a loud crash, and the groom felt his body rapidly falling down...

  The woman and Yin Feng also fell down with him.

  What was originally an endless darkness suddenly became brightly lit for a moment.

  The groom wrapped his arms around the woman's waist and slowly fell to the ground.

  Yin Feng had no preparation at all and suddenly sat down on the ground with a thud.

  After he stood up with his waist straightened, he pointed at Ma Fu and said: "I say General, you really are a man who forgets righteousness when he sees beauty!"

  The groom saw his right hand was still around the woman's waist and quickly withdrew it, while he had already turned red on one side of his face.

  Yang Fu, standing at the entrance of the cave, asked in a low voice: "General, is this inside a secret passage? There's a Buddha statue above, and just now you chopped off the Buddha's palm with one slap. What a sin! What a sin!"

  The groom heard him say that, and with the bright light surrounding him, there was actually a circular door protruding outward in front of him! And on the wall of the cave were placed four oil lamps. ?? Tiger leopard riding 20

  "Hey, you two, hurry up and come down! My intuition tells me that this is a secret passage leading out of the city!"

  Yang Fu and Zhao Ang also came down along the cave wall when they heard this, while the groom waited below to receive them.

  Although this cave is five or six meters high, fortunately, the wall of the cave is uneven and they came down without much effort.

  Several people gathered in a large cave, and the coachman pointed to his left front and said: "The exit is over there, for now we have to find the mechanism."

  Yang Fu smiled and said: "Although I am not talented, I can still see that it is a bronze tripod, and the two lines of words on both sides of the large tripod are also another mystery."

  "Bronze Ding?" The horseman felt incredulous, and with a glance, he only knew that the big ding had eight characters on both sides, but as for what these eight characters were, he had no idea.

  Zhao Ang, standing beside him, supported his chin and said: "I don't understand! Brother, stop being mysterious here, hurry up and say where the mechanism is!"

  Yang Fu pointed to the bronze tripod and said, "The two lines of characters on either side of the bronze tripod are in the Jinwen script. The Jinwen script refers to the inscriptions cast or engraved on Shang-Zhou bronzes, also known as Zhongdingwen (Bell and Cauldron Script). The Shang-Zhou period was an era of bronze ware, with ritual vessels represented by the ding (tripod) and musical instruments represented by the zhong (bell). 'Zhongding' is a synonym for bronze ware."

  "Jīn wén?" The groom had indeed heard of Dàzhuàn, Xiǎozhuàn, and Lìshū, but as for Jīn wén, he really was hearing it for the first time.

  Yang Fu saw that they were very interested, and continued: "The Jinwen can be roughly divided into four types, namely Shang Jinwen, Western Zhou Jinwen, Eastern Zhou Jinwen and Qin Han Jinwen. The text on both sides of this bronze tripod is Western Zhou Jinwen. The Western Zhou inherited the calligraphic style of the late Shang Dynasty, and it wasn't until the time of King Cheng that a unique style was produced. The script is majestic, elegant and magnificent; after Zhao Mu, it became strict and correct."

  Yin Feng listened dazedly, at this time he had no curiosity and was very impatient, saying: "What's the use of saying so much? These doors are all made of bronze castings, how can we get out?"

  "Brother Yin, don't be in a hurry, the golden inscriptions on both sides of this bronze tripod say 'up and down, left and right, east, south, west, and north'."

  "Does this mean the mechanism is right in the middle of the cave?" The woman surprisingly spoke up.

  Yang Fu looked up and down at the woman and praised: "Miss is indeed clever! It's really like that."

  The groom smiled at the woman and immediately walked to the center of the round hole. He wiped the dust on the ground with his hand, but found nothing.

  Yang Fu smiled and said: "General, don't be impatient. Look at the oil lamps around us, they are in pairs facing each other. If we draw a line between each pair, the intersection of the two lines is where the mechanism is located."

  The groom searched according to what Yang Fu said and found that the intersection was just under his foot, which was about 20 centimeters away from where he had just looked.

  Yin Feng had waited impatiently and pushed the horseman with his hand, then tapped his left foot, and to their surprise, the bronze door slowly opened.

  The groom and Yin Feng exchanged a smile after seeing this situation.

  But as soon as they walked in and the bronze door closed automatically again, they immediately stopped smiling.

  This was not because they had encountered another crisis, but rather that the several people were completely shocked by the magnificent scene in front of them.

  "General, is this true?" Yun Feng wiped his eyes with his hand.

  The groom slowly walked forward, looking at those boxes of gold, silver, and jewels, famous paintings and antiques, and said: "Could this be the treasure hidden by the An Yi aristocratic family?"

  Zhao Ang said, "When we first arrived in An Yi, there were rumors circulating that Min Huan privately raised assassins and robbed passing merchant caravans for twenty years, accumulating a large amount of wealth. If the rumors are true, then these gold, silver, and treasures should be his."

  "But there are fifty boxes of gold and silver treasures! Enough for me to eat for several lifetimes!" At this time, Yin Feng's eyes were shining brightly, and he had never seen so many gold and silver treasures in his life.

  "Look how excited you've become! Now Yan Yi must have ordered the city to be closed, our lives are not guaranteed, what's the use of these gold and silver treasures that can't be taken away?" Zhao Gao's words undoubtedly poured a bucket of cold water on Yin Feng.

  Yin Feng Meng patted Zhao Ang's shoulder and said: "I'm telling you, brother, even if we can't eat meat, I can still drool a bit, right?"

  Zhao Ang suddenly broke out in a cold sweat.

  Ma Fu, Yang Fu and others were about to look for a way out when they suddenly heard that a large wooden box in front of them was opened, and the four of them were shocked.

  But when they saw the faces sticking out of that big wooden box, the four were overjoyed!

  He didn't come out early or late, but he actually came out at this time. Isn't that just asking to die?

  A woman stretched out her hand and a black cloth suddenly appeared in front of Min Hua.

  Min Hua was shocked and quickly wanted to withdraw his head, but the woman's movements were too fast. With just a slight movement of her wrist, the black cloth had already tightly wrapped around Min Hua's neck.

  She jerked her hand back, and Min Hua was lifted out of the large wooden box, then slammed heavily to the ground.

  The groom smiled and walked up to Min Hua's face and said: "How? Why aren't you arrogant anymore? Continue being arrogant!"

  Seeing Min Hua being strangled to the point of being on his last breath, the woman withdrew the black cloth.

  After a while, Min Hwang finally said with a pause: "How did you find this place?"

  Ma Fu said: "We say it's a misunderstanding, do you believe it?"

  Min Huan slowly straightened his waist, looked up at Ma Fu with a glance, and gritted his teeth: "I don't believe it!"

  The groom squatted down in front of him and said: "Whether you believe it or not is unimportant, speak quickly, where is the exit? How to leave An Yi City?"

  Min Hua turned his head and looked at the gold and silver treasures, saying: "General Ma, General Ma, I advise you to stop dreaming!"

  "Do you believe I'll kill you right now?" Yoon Bong charged in front of Min Hwan, his long spear pointing straight at his chest.

  Min Huayang burst out laughing and said, "Silence is golden."

  Yang Fu walked over to the trunk where Min Huan had just emerged from and examined it carefully.

  It wasn't until he tentatively stepped into the wooden box that he discovered the exit had been sealed off.

  Yin Feng walked up to Yang Fu's side in three strides, then suddenly thrust his spear downwards. However, apart from a crisp sound, nothing seemed to have happened inside the wooden box.

  After a series of fierce stabs, Yin Feng suddenly used both hands to strike the wooden box with his spear, but what he didn't expect was that although the wooden box looked like it was made of wood, it was actually extremely solid.

  The wooden box was undamaged, but his hands were shaken with extraordinary pain.

  "How strange! How strange!" Yang Fu muttered to himself.

  Yin Feng said somewhat violently: "This Min Huan is really detestable! He even treasures a wooden box as a precious thing!"

  He walked up to Min Hua and pinched his neck with one hand, saying: "Quickly, where is the exit? Your grandfather doesn't have the patience to wait for you here!"

  Min Hwang glared at Yoon Bong, saying nothing.

  The groom saw this and hurriedly asked Yin Fengsong to let go of his hand.

  Yin Feng listened to Ma Fu's words, but still didn't forget to kick Min Hua with one foot while loosening his grip.

  Min Hua spat out a mouthful of blood, clutching his stomach and said: "If I don't get out of here within half an hour, my slave will inform General Han, and you'll all be waiting to die here!"

  Ma Chao said: "You really are secretly in league with Han Sui! If you don't tell us the way out today, I will definitely cut you into a thousand pieces."

  In the face of Ma Fu's harsh words, Min Hua was not afraid at all. He said fearlessly: "I am already over fifty years old and have lived long enough! With you young people with great reputations accompanying me, I am satisfied!"

  After he finished speaking, he closed his eyes and fell silent.

  The groom was furious and gritted his teeth, but no one had ever been so arrogant in front of him before. For the time being, he was helpless against him...
