Chapter 1881: This topic is getting to the point
Everyone stared at the open stone door.
Burning eyes!
This is the legendary treasure!
A treasure that all the high priests of southern Xinjiang have failed to find!
“Squeak… squeak…”
Cai Shu stood inside the stone gate and shouted excitedly to Tang Bao.
With the help of a money rat, Tang Bao detected the air circulation inside the stone gate, so he was not worried about the insufficient oxygen concentration inside.
Tang Bao looked at Shi Liu.
"Sister Pomegranate, let's go in."
After Tang Bao finished speaking, she stretched out her hand and held Shi Liu's arm, not noticing that a certain prince standing next to her had a dark face in an instant, and stared intently at Tang Bao's hand holding Shi Liu's arm, as if she could snatch that hand away with just her eyes.
Zhao Wu tried hard to suppress the urge to go in and search for treasure immediately. He glanced at his master carefully, and kept muttering in his heart, "Master, please stop making trouble. Let's go, let's go... Let's go in and search for treasure..."
However, the master just refused to leave, as if he was a child stubbornly waiting for an adult to hold his hand.
The corners of Zhao Wu's mouth twitched, he was anxious!
"Ahem... Master, the little princess has already gone in. If there's any danger inside..."
Before Zhao Wu could finish his words, Xuanyuan Jin had already raised his foot and was behind Tang Bao in a few breaths.
Zhao Wu: “…”
Zhao Wu hurriedly trotted after him.
Inside the stone gate is a wide passage.
Everyone walked in holding torches.
"ah!"
Xia Siya let out a scream.
"What's wrong?" Da Pan asked hurriedly.
He quickly stood in front of Xia Siya and looked around with a wary expression.
Xia Siya pointed to a dark corner and said in a frightened voice, "Is that a person?"
Everyone looked in the direction Xia Siya pointed.
Sure enough, there was a figure standing in the corner.
"Who's there?" Da Pan shouted.
No one answered.
The figure didn't move.
"stupid!"
A single syllable popped out.
Da Pan: "..."
Everyone: “…”
This belated word finally came down.
However, as soon as this word came down, Da Pan understood.
The question I asked just now was indeed stupid.
How could there be a living person here? Da Pan touched his nose.
Xuanyuan Jin flashed and stood in front of the black shadow holding a torch.
With the help of the firelight, everyone finally saw the black shadow clearly.
Everyone gasped at the same time.
How can this be a human being?
This is clearly an upright fish!
No! It can't be called a fish!
There is a fish tail, a fish head, and fish scales.
But why do it still have limbs?
There are two claws under the fish's head, right?
The two claws are upright, as if holding something.
Next to the fish tail, there are two... feet on the ground, right?
No one could tell whether it was a foot or a webbed foot.
What the hell is this?!
Tang Bao took Shi Liu's arm and walked over.
Seeing this, others followed curiously.
With His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and the little princess around, what do they have to be afraid of?
What's more, this thing is definitely not a living thing.
When everyone got closer, they found that the body of this thing seemed to be covered with a layer of grease-like substance.
Perhaps it is for this reason that this thing has not rotted after so many years.
"What's this?"
"Mermaid?"
"monster?"
…
Everyone was speculating.
Xuanyuan Jin looked at the thing in front of him that looked like a fish but not a fish, and showed a thoughtful expression.
Then, he put the torch in his hand to one of the claws.
With a "boom", the fire became brighter.
It turns out that there is a wick-like object in the middle of this thing's claw.
The wick was lit and emitted a bright light.
"Could this be a mermaid?" Yu Zhilan said in surprise.
It is said that except for the fish tail, the upper body of the mermaid looks like a human.
However, this thing in front of me looks like a walking fish.
Yu Zhilan was very uncertain.
"Maybe he is the ancestor of the mermaids." Tang Bao said.
No one knows how many years this place has been sealed, and no one knows how many years this mermaid has been standing here.
After countless years of evolution, the mermaids may have transformed their fish heads into human heads...
The young scholar agreed with his aunt's guess very much.
"Aunt, what you said is absolutely right!" The young scholar said, "The fat covering this mermaid must be mermaid fat. It is placed here to be used as a candle."
After the young scholar finished speaking, he looked at Xuanyuan Jin.
"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince must have guessed this, so he lit the mermaid lamp." The young scholar said with certainty.
Xuanyuan Jin nodded and finally gave the young scholar a proper look.
"As long as you don't do anything stupid, you are actually smart!" Xuanyuan Jin said.
Little scholar: "..."
Everyone: “…”
Is this a compliment?
Why does it sound so awkward?
The young scholar felt that he was not comforted at all, but felt even more upset.
What does it mean to not be stupid?
When did he act stupid?
Can you elaborate on this?
It is impossible to elaborate.
After Xuanyuan Jin finished speaking, he walked inside.
And, while Tang Bao was observing the mermaid lantern, he let go of Shi Liu's arm, directly held Tang Bao's hand, and pulled Tang Bao away.
Pomegranate:"……"
Shi Liu looked at the backs of Xuanyuan Jin and Tang Bao, considering the possibility of getting Tang Bao back.
"Stop fighting and give some to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince." Zhao Wu said in a low voice.
Otherwise, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince will be angry again.
Zhao Wu didn't want his master to be constantly emitting cold air. Who was freezing? Him!
After Zhao Wu finished speaking, he gave Shi Liu a pleading look.
Although he is considered half-master of Shi Liu, Shi Liu's status is different now, so he doesn't dare to call himself the master.
Pomegranate:"……"
Forget it, let’s just go down the slope.
She might not be able to snatch Xuanyuan Jin away.
The group walked a little further and found several mermaid lanterns.
Erpan took a look at the mermaid lamp that had just been lit, and suddenly asked a soul-searching question.
"Aunt Shiliu, the ancestors of the mermaids looked like this, so what did the ancestors of you people in Southern Xinjiang look like?"
Pomegranate:"……"
Everyone: “…”
How dare you ask.
"Could it be... that he looks similar to Sulamo?" Erpan asked again.
Pomegranate:"……"
Everyone: “…”
It turns out that there are not only those who dare to ask, but also those who dare to ask even more!
Everyone was shocked by the surge in Erpan's brain capacity. Oh, or you could say they were shocked by the rapid shrinkage in Erpan's brain capacity.
Perhaps they can prepare paper money for Erpan's death anniversary next year.
"You Dayan people look the same as us Southern Xinjiang people. Could it be that your Dayan ancestor also looks like Suramo?" Shi Liu said meaningfully, "Or, could it be that your Dayan ancestor is also Suramo?"
In that case, she wouldn't mind unifying the world and worshipping Suramo together.
Er Pan: “…”
Everyone: “…”
This topic is beyond the scope!
Especially, there is a prince of Dayan in front!
Erpan opened his mouth, of course that was not what he meant.
"Aunt Pomegranate, I..."
"Shut up!"
Princess Linghua glared at Erpan without waiting for him to finish speaking.
Then, he looked at Shi Liu and said flatteringly, "Sister Shi Liu, don't mind me. He's just stupid and talks nonsense..."
Shi Liu glanced at Princess Linghua.
She naturally knew Erpan's temperament and character, so there was no need for Princess Linghua to explain it to her.
"Come quickly!"
Tang Bao's voice came from the corner in front.
Everyone quickly turned the page and ran over.
