Chapter 103 Bronze Door
"Ah? Go look in its direction? This is too scary!"
Qiao Qiqi was a little confused.
If Pei Shaoling hadn't arrived in time, my waist would have been broken!
"It's okay, just follow me, and I'll take care of the Nine Heavens Serpent Cypress!"
Pei Shaoling knew that she had just been frightened and spoke softly.
"Um."
Qiao Qiqi put her hand into Pei Shaoling's hand.
Feeling the warmth of his palm, Qiao Qiqi felt much more at ease.
"let's go!"
Qiao Qiqi smiled faintly at Pei Shaoling and shone the flashlight in her hand forward.
Pei Shaoling held Qiao Qiqi's little hand in one hand and a soft sword in the other, and walked forward vigilantly in the light emitted from Qiao Qiqi's hand.
Qiao Qiqi also held her breath, fearing that her breathing would be too loud and alarm the Hydra.
After the two walked along the river for a distance.
Pei Shaoling suddenly stopped.
Qiao Qiqi shone the flashlight forward and found that there was a deep pit in front of her.
The huge Nine-Sky Serpent Cypress grew behind the deep pit, with its vines and branches twisting around it.
It looked like a tree with countless snakes with bared fangs and claws coiled around it.
Qiao Qiqi couldn't help but gasp.
"Don't be afraid, just stay here and turn off the fire in your hand. I'll take care of the rest!"
Pei Shaoling touched her head and spoke softly.
After Qiao Qiqi turned off the flashlight in her hand, Pei Shaoling leaped towards the direction of the Hydra Cypress with a soft sword in his hand.
Qiao Qiqi didn't understand why he could walk so smoothly in the dark.
She carefully watched the movements around her, then turned her attention back to the deep pit in front.
All you could hear were the whooshing and splashing sounds coming from the deep pit.
Although Qiao Qiqi couldn't see it, she could imagine the battle scene between Pei Shaoling and the nine-headed snake cypress.
After a long time, the movement in the deep pit finally disappeared.
However, Qiao Qiqi did not move, but continued to stay there quietly.
Finally, a familiar figure leaped up, carrying a hint of blood.
Qiao Qiqi quickly turned on the flashlight in her hand and looked at the person who came. "Husband, are you injured?"
"Yeah, it's okay. I wasn't paying attention just now and got hit on the arm by that snake cypress."
Pei Shaoling glanced at his left arm and said nonchalantly.
"You're bleeding, let me bandage you!"
Qiao Qiqi quickly found a clean place for him to sit down, and she took out the external medicines and gauze from the space to bandage him.
"how's it going?"
While bandaging Pei Shaoling, she asked about the situation.
Pei Shaoling understood that she was asking about the Hydra Cypress, and said softly, "It's okay, it's taken care of!"
"I didn't expect there would be such a monster in the tomb of the former emperor!"
Qiao Qiqi couldn't help but sigh.
"That's normal. Which emperor would want his peace and quiet disturbed after his death? He would definitely use some unusual means to protect his resting place."
Pei Shaoling said casually.
Hearing what he said, Qiao Qiqi suddenly felt a little embarrassed.
Are they disturbing other people's peace by coming here uninvited?
As if sensing Qiao Qiqi's thoughts, Pei Shaoling touched her head with his uninjured right hand.
"My lady, don't overthink it! This tomb of the previous dynasty has been exposed. Even if we don't come down, it will be a good opportunity for Prince Yi. He will then use the treasures here to cause great suffering to the people of the world. It's better for us to take it away directly!"
"Yeah, that makes sense."
Qiao Qiqi, who was comforted by him, nodded gently, and then whispered, "Can you please not touch my head next time? It will make me grow taller."
Pei Shaoling was stunned for a moment, then he laughed and hugged her tightly in his arms.
Feeling the vibration coming from Pei Shaoling's chest, Qiao Qiqi also showed a playful expression on her face.
She said this on purpose, just to ease the current atmosphere.
After enjoying a warm moment, Pei Shaoling hugged Qiao Qiqi and stood up, "Let's go, let's continue!"
"But, how can we get through such a huge pit? And is the tomb just ahead?"
Qiao Qiqi raised her own questions.
She shone the flashlight around. Both sides of the deep pit were stone walls, smooth stone walls.
There is not even a place to step.
"Don't worry, I've just checked over there. There is indeed a bronze door on the opposite side of the deep pit! The former emperor's coffin and treasure should be behind that bronze door!"
Pei Shaoling hugged Qiao Qiqi and said, "Hold on to me, I'll take you there!"
So, Qiao Qiqi once again enjoyed the feeling of being a flying man.
Soon, the two of them stopped in the open space opposite the deep pit.
Qiao Qiqi, holding a flashlight, looked at the bronze door that exuded an ancient atmosphere and was instantly excited.
The five-meter-high gate is carved with exquisite patterns.
The pattern looked very much like the totem on the stone door of the cave outside, which was a totem used exclusively by the royal family of the previous dynasty.
"Husband, yes, this should be the tomb of the previous emperor!"
Qiao Qiqi shone the flashlight at the bronze door again and said excitedly.
"Well, the style of this gate is indeed that of the previous dynasty."
Pei Shaoling nodded slightly and stepped forward to try to push open the bronze door.
There are two huge bronze rings on the bronze door, which is obviously a door that can be pushed back and forth.
only!
No matter how hard Pei Shaoling tried, the bronze door didn't move at all!
"It seems this bronze door also has a hidden mechanism. We can only enter after we have cracked it."
Pei Shaoling said softly.
"Is there a mechanism on this door?"
Qiao Qiqi took out a flashlight from the space and handed it to him. As for Pei Shaoling's, he accidentally left it behind when he rescued her by the river before.
"Um."
Pei Shaoling took the flashlight and turned on the button on the flashlight familiarly, shining it on the bronze door.
Qiao Qiqi looked at the patterns on the bronze door, trying to find the key.
Suddenly!
She found that the totems and patterns on both sides of the bronze ring seemed to be a little more raised than the patterns in other places.
It's just a little bit, and it's hard to find if you don't look carefully!
She quickly called out to Pei Shaoling, "Husband, look, the pattern here seems a little different!"
Pei Shaoling walked over and carefully looked at the place Qiao Qiqi pointed at. "It's indeed different. My lady, you are amazing."
Qiao Qiqi's mood instantly brightened. She raised the corners of her mouth proudly without saying a word.
Pei Shaoling carefully studied the patterns on both sides of the bronze ring. It seemed that each pattern was different.
And there are a total of eight raised patterns.
"My lady, please move to the side. Let me see what happens if I press it!"
Pei Shaoling asked Qiao Qiqi to walk to the side of the bronze door, while he himself planned to try to press the pattern.
"good!"
Qiao Qiqi walked gently to the side of the bronze door, waiting for Pei Shaoling's action.
