The coffin in the secret room

  Coffin in a narrow room (above)

  However, this was only the beginning. When the mother insect frantically shook its body, countless small insects flew out. Originally thought that these little bugs would only crawl on the ground, but unexpectedly a part of these damn insects actually grew wings and gathered in the air like black smoke. What's even more deadly is that the water output from the large hole in the wall suddenly increased, and the gap was unable to drain for a while. Soon, the hot spring water cooled down, the water level surged by one foot, and it continued to rise.

  "Hurry up and get on board, we'll pull you over."

  Upon hearing Feng Le Tian's loud shout, Liao Dongfeng and Peng Jianjun quickly jumped onto the boat. The crowd on the other side used their combined strength to propel the rubber boat forward, which then moved rapidly and smoothly away from the shore.

  They waited until they were safely ashore, while others also ran onto the platform, and by this time the horizontal surface was almost rushing to the supplies.

  "Hurry up and get all the supplies on board, otherwise it's all over."

  After Peng Jianjun finished shouting, others were about to take action, when Liao Dongfeng loudly shouted: "You move all the supplies to the central organ pit on the platform, I'll try to open the stone gate. Also, if there's still time, put on your protective suits."

  After finishing speaking, everyone worked together to move things. At that time, no one knew how to say the word "tired", and the speed was much faster than before.

  In the pit of the agency, Liao Dongfeng searched up and down, left and right, and soon found a petal-shaped protrusion on the wall. Above this protrusion was a line of small characters that he recognized as Qin seal script, but had difficulty deciphering immediately. He shouted out loud: "Qin, hurry over to recognize the characters."

  Qin Liao heard the shouting and rushed to Liao Dongfeng's side, rubbing his eyes carefully to read the small words on the wall, reading them out one by one.

  "Great indeed is the origin, all day long it is bright and clear, in the evening it is solemn and severe. The position of the ruler is to be sincere in words and cautious in actions, to benefit the world without boasting, to honor virtue and transform through kindness, and to make manifest the clarity of heaven to the world first. Clouds follow the dragon, wind follows the tiger, the sage acts and all things see, three knocks at dawn are for the great man."

  As soon as he finished reading, Qin immediately shouted in a loud voice: "I understand the meaning, it's about how to behave and be a good person to bring peace to the world, not about opening doors!"

  Outside, Peng Jianjun also shouted loudly: "Isn't it over yet? The water is about to flood the platform, and there are too many ghost insects!"

  "Sulfur powder, sulfur powder can also expel worms."

  Just as Hai Chen finished speaking, Feng Le Tian pointed to the sky and said: "Look up there."

  As soon as they finished speaking, both of them looked up at the same time and saw that the black smoke had gathered into a fog, which was now slowly pressing down.

  "Cold smoke and fire, cold smoke and fire."

  Hai Chen lit several cold smoke fires while shouting, but the Black Fog Ghost Insect still didn't stop its advance.

  At this time, Feng Le Tian gazed at the rolling river water and saw a bug crawling onto the platform.

  However, this worm is a bit strange. It doesn't attack people, but instead rolls around on the spot until its skin and flesh are all worn away before it's done.

  But what happened next was something Feng Le Tian watched closely, and that was the little bug shedding its skin in this way. After it shed its skin, it actually turned into a small fish-like tadpole.

  Feng Le Tian was shocked and muttered to himself: "Black fog, transparent worm, tiger shark, they are a family, think of a way to escape quickly, otherwise we will all be finished here."

  After she finished speaking, she jumped into the pit of the mechanism. Only then did Qin and Liao Dongfeng continue to ponder over those few small characters. Feng Le Tian listened carefully and immediately shouted: "What are you dawdling for? This is the Qian Hexagram's image and judgment!"

  Liao Dongfeng patted his head and muttered to himself while turning the petals: "Day after day, dry and withered, evening dew like frost, no blame, nine three, ordinary words are trustworthy, ordinary actions are cautious, beneficial for seeing great men, nine two, good world without boasting, offering virtue widely and transforming, making clear the first in the world, nine two, clouds follow dragons, winds follow tigers, sages create, and all things see, morning dragon three knocks, great men create, this is called flying dragon in heaven, nine five, open."

  As soon as the stone gate opened, a loud rumbling sound was heard, and a wave of heat burst out. The people outside heard the stone gate open and immediately started throwing things inside. After they finished throwing in all the supplies, Liao Dongfeng followed them into the stone gate. However, the stone gate opened slowly, and the floodwaters finally overflowed onto the platform. Countless small tiger fish swam down with the current, biting anyone they saw. If it weren't for everyone dodging in time, they might have lost their lives forever here.

  At this time, no one noticed that behind the stone gate was a larger space. Countless long-lived lamp holders made of gray-brown fish people's bodies stood against the wall. The middle area was filled with dozens of coffins of various sizes. The rushing water also knocked over the coffins to the east and west with great force.

  At this time, a loud noise came from behind, and a huge stone as big as the stone gate fell down from above, cutting off the water flow and sealing the entrance that had just come in.

  Peng Jianjun and Tang Yuanzhao didn't care what happened, each holding a shovel to scoop up the tiger pufferfish that were flowing in with the water, slapping them one by one until they were mushy. Hai Chen and Feng Le Tian also crazily used their feet to trample them, soon filling the space with a foul fishy smell.

  "Never mind those dead fish, look at these."

  As soon as Liao Dongfeng spoke, everyone turned their heads to look over together.

  Dozens of coffins were in complete disarray, and at that time everyone was staring at the coffins, not noticing that the space they were in was bright until a loud noise sounded, and Liao Dongfeng turned his head to look at the longevity candle behind him.

  Only to see the withered skull of the merman open its three-lobed big mouth, and a deep blue tongue had already stretched out, while the "whoosh" sound just now was the sound of the flame on the tip of the tongue igniting.

  Right after that, the surrounding merfolk lit up their Longevity Candles one by one, but the brightness of the space didn't change much. After all, Longevity Candles weren't meant for lighting, and the deep blue flames also gave people a chilly feeling.

  Liao Dongfeng saw that the Longsheng candle was lit, but nothing happened, so he slowly walked forward to check the coffins. The coffins were of different sizes, with the longest being nearly 3 meters and the shortest about 1.5 meters. The outer layer of the coffins also varied, some were made of wood, some of stone, and others were surprisingly made of copper. Liao Dongfeng's focus was on the two copper coffins.

  These two coffins are of equal length and are also in the center position. It seems that the owners of these two coffins are the core here.

  Liao Dongfeng carefully put on his waterproof gloves, reached out to touch the top of the coffin, and immediately felt a slippery sensation. He looked up at the top and saw that it was golden yellow in color, with a dazzling luster that seemed to be flowing like molten lava.

  The original splendor on top could make people linger, but Liao Dongfeng turned back to warn at this time: "Don't make a big noise, especially you, Junzi, you must take good care of the gun in your hand, don't fire accidentally, and turn off the safety for me."

  Liao Dongfeng said three "hundreds of millions" in one sentence, which shows the absolute severity of the incident. At this time, Peng Jianjun didn't think it was a big deal and said "what's wrong with that" three times.

  Liao Dongfeng was slightly annoyed, and quickly walked up to Peng Jianjun, grabbing his collar and saying seriously: "The top of our heads is a mechanism called Huo You Liu Li Ding. The Huo oil and this space are only separated by a thin layer of Chen Sha Shi. If we make even the slightest loud noise, the Chen Sha Shi will immediately shatter, and when the Huo oil pours down, no one will be able to escape alive."

  "This isn't right, is it? We've already shouted before and nothing happened, did it?"

  Listening to Peng Jianjun's question, Feng Le Tian immediately interjected: "Just now, the floodwater came in from outside and lowered the room temperature a lot, which also temporarily cooled down the Danzhu stone. However, now that the water vapor on top has almost evaporated, the Huo You Liu Li Ding has returned to its original shape. Comrade Xiao Liao's concern is not wrong, so listen carefully!"

  Bang! Two muffled sounds made Liao Dongfeng suddenly turn his head, only to see Hai Chen standing beside a wooden coffin at this moment. He saw Liao Dongfeng staring at him fiercely and immediately explained: "I didn't touch anything, the sound came from inside this coffin."
