Chapter Thirteen: Deciphering the Heavenly Mechanism Lock

  The wall monster began to struggle frantically, and those black branches shrunk back towards the wall like crazy, but under the saliva of dozens of people, the wall monster still paid a considerable price before its branches shrank back.

  The murals on the walls were completely silent, and those who had just been trapped by the wall demon all let out a sigh of relief. However, even Zha Qian and his men did not expect to encounter strange things one after another in this place.

  Because of this kind of strange and bizarre things encountered below, Zha Qian and his team are not without experience, but it is extremely rare for such dangerous events to occur from the very beginning.

  When I entered that place with my older brother back then, it was just like now, and as soon as we went in, trouble kept happening one after another.

  Originally, when they were about to enter this tomb, Cha Qian and the others had always been cautious of it, being extremely prudent towards the owner of the tomb.

  Because the tomb owner obtained that thing, it was because of the existence of that thing. Although there were thousands of years of time separating this place from the tomb owner, the danger level here was absolutely not low.

  The corridor returned to its original state, but the existence of that foul smell of burnt offerings filled the corridor with an inexplicable atmosphere.

  Pang San was also wiping the cold sweat on his head, and he began to regret making a bet with Haoziying. If he hadn't had that idea earlier, he might be waiting outside right now.

  Although the final bet with Huozi Camp was that either his adopted son or Jiang Yingshui could enter the tomb safely within 30 meters by luck, but because of his adopted son's sake, this bet was basically lost on his side.

  However, it's not a turning point either. If Jiang didn't leave his mark at the 30-meter mark, he would have had something to say about this final bet as well.

  But if that's possible, Jiang Jing'er, the son of Huoziying's big brother, relied on his own skills and not only left a mark at 30 meters but also went out safely. If so, Pang Yong would really have to leave one hand behind!

  So Pang Yong is now eagerly waiting for Jiang Yunshui to die in this place, he clenched his fists tightly, and the ruthless look of Pang San Ye appeared again in his eyes. He said that no matter what, he would leave the life of that little brat here. Since they had already made an enemy of Haoziying, he might as well be even more ruthless.

  Jīn Dōu Zi was naturally making his own plans, and now he was actually looking forward to entering the tomb. As long as he could survive in this place, he would have a chance to get what he wanted.

  At the forefront, Cha Qian and his team first tried to retrieve as many torches as possible. Although they couldn't be lit again due to the wall demon's influence, there was still a long way ahead, and these torches were essential items that couldn't be lacking.

  Cha Qianzong and his men moved inward again, everyone was like a blind man, feeling the wall slowly deeper, and behind them, Pang San Ye and others also followed. Zhou Futong left two people from Haoziying here to prevent something from happening at that time.

  Peng Tianyang suddenly crouched down, his hand clenched a stone-like object the size of a broad bean, which emitted a faint green glow like fireflies. Under the light of this thing, he saw the mark left by Jiang Yunshui in this place.

  Zha Qian also walked over and saw the mark, which meant that Jiang Yunshui had indeed succeeded, but where was he now?

  At this time, Jiang Feng was sitting in the place with a metal coffin, and there was indeed no other way out except for the bronze gate and the hole above.

  He looked at the place where he crawled out, was it really necessary to go back and find a way out again? That huge head shouldn't have left so mysteriously, maybe the real escape route was right there.

  Jiang Yunshui walked back to the place where he had escaped, hesitated for half a day, and finally made up his mind. He kicked the top that he had opened with one foot.

  He's afraid that once he goes back, if he runs into Big Head again, it'll be a hassle. At that time, whether he can leave the place again is uncertain.

  Holding the white jade pendant, Jiang Fengshui turned around in this place again and looked at the coffin. The metal gloss on the coffin was filled with a cold chill, and the gemstone on the head of the coffin was dazzlingly colorful, looking extremely tempting.

  Jiang Feng licked his lips and walked closer to the coffin, looking at the gemstones on it as if he felt something was off in some places.

  But what was wrong with it, Jiang Yunshui couldn't quite put his finger on for the time being. However, that gemstone and metal coffin from the General Bureau did seem a bit off.

  What's wrong? Jiang Youwei suddenly had this thought in his mind, and he once again observed the awkward feeling between these two. Finally, his eyes became brighter and brighter, and he tried to calm himself down before re-examining every detail of this place.

  He saw everything from the bronze gate to the corner, and this time Jiang Yunshui didn't let go of any details. In this situation, Jiang Yunshui was frightened to discover that he could be so calm, and couldn't help but admire himself.

  Jiang Fengshui finally figured out what was off about the discovery as he walked back to the metal coffin, because the gemstone and the coffin, even the burial objects and the bronze door all seemed somewhat incongruous.

  Everything here is either governed by a certain rule, or has merged with the place as one, but these three gems inlaid on the coffin seem too abrupt and even give a sense of conflict.

  Jiang Fengshui looked at the three gems more carefully this time. The original colors of the three gems were blue, red and purple, but when they shone in his hand, they had different color changes.

  The blue gemstone that was originally in his hand showed three colors, while the red gemstone had five colors and the remaining purple gemstone flashed seven different colors.

  Jiang Feng didn't know what this thing was yet, but he vaguely felt that it was the key to leaving here, or even leaving this tomb. It was a kind of intuition that came from the heart.

  Apart from the three gems on this side, there were no others anywhere else on the entire metal coffin. Jiang Fengshui had already determined that there was nothing else worth investigating about the coffin.

  The most suspicious thing now is the two tightly closed bronze doors, Jiang Yunshui squatted down to look at the bronze door, which also had gems on it, but they didn't seem like the ones on the coffin.

  Three of the seven gems were on the bronze door to Jiang's left, and the other four were on the bronze door to his right, forming a pattern resembling the Big Dipper.

  And on this bronze gate, there are seven gems. On the left side, one of the three is slightly protruding, while on the right side, two of the four are recessed.

  These seven gems were all white in appearance, but under the light of Jiang's pearl, the original white gems showed seven very faint colors, which happened to be red, orange, yellow, green, cyan, blue and purple.

  The more Jiang looked, the more he felt an idea emerging in his mind. The red gem among these seven gems wasn't it corresponding to the red gem on the coffin? And the remaining blue and purple colors were consistent with the original colors of the two gems on the coffin.

  It seems that the color of each gemstone on the coffin is similar to what I've seen before, like the "Tianji Lock", which requires turning a certain number of times to open.

  At this time, Jiang Feng felt his heartbeat speeding up, he stretched out his hand and placed it on the bronze door's gemstone that emitted a crimson glow, but hesitated to press down, for he still remembered what Cha Qian had told him when he entered the tomb.

  Jiang Yunshui felt that his breathing was a bit unsmooth, and he didn't know if it was because of squatting or because of the increasingly tense atmosphere.

  He stood up and took a few deep breaths, then Jiang Yunshui squatted down again to look at the gemstone on the bronze door, muttering to himself: "I'll bet my mother!"

  As his voice fell, his hand also touched the gemstone that emitted a crimson glow. To his surprise, the gemstone actually sank downwards, but immediately bounced back with a rebounding force, pushing it back up again.

  Jiang Fengshui felt that his heart seemed to have stopped beating at that moment, but it seemed like nothing had happened around him.

  Just as Jiang Feng was secretly rejoicing, a series of metallic friction sounds suddenly came from behind him, and the sound made Jiang Feng's hairs stand on end.

  And Jiang Yunshui had been here for half a day, and he also estimated that the direction of the sound was from the direction where the four earthenware figurines were!

  The fingers that had been placed on the gemstone were now stiff and still, but the metallic sound coming from the earthenware figurine grew increasingly piercing.

  Jiang Yongsheng, who regretted not falling earlier, knew that he had triggered the mechanism, but now he wanted to continue trying, so his fingers pressed on the gemstone twice again.

  But then again, from another corner, the sound of metal friction echoed once more. Jiang Fengshui felt his palms sweating as he pressed down on the blue gemstone five times in quick succession. Sure enough, a metallic scraping noise came from a third direction, stimulating Jiang's nerves.

  When Jiang's fingers landed on the last purple gemstone, he had already forgotten about the metallic sound behind him. After being pressed seven times, his body and mind were tense, and his ears seemed to be much more sensitive than usual.

  "Whoosh!"

  That sound indeed came from the fourth direction, Jiang Yunshui stood up and turned around, he saw that the four pottery warriors raised their hands with long ge against him, and the sword that was originally inserted in the scabbard was also pulled out with a cold light!

  At this time, the bronze gate also made a noise. The two bronze gates were opened from inside to outside, revealing a dark and mysterious cave entrance that led to an unknown place.
