"Okay." The three children rushed to stretch their hands in front of Yu Yuanzheng.
Yu Yuanzheng asked Shangguan Ziqi to pick up Dabao first, took out a silver needle from the pouch on her waist, quickly pierced Dabao's middle finger, then reached into the stone bowl and squeezed it hard.
When a few drops of blood flowed into the small hole, the stone door actually opened a little.
It just opened to one side.
Everyone was worried.
What if even the blood of the three children cannot open the stone door completely?
But now it has been opened a little, enough for a person to enter sideways.
It is hard to say how much of the stuff in it can be taken out.
Yu Yuanzheng sucked Dabao's fingers in her mouth, and then asked Shangguan Ziqi to pick up Erbao.
Do the same.
The stone gate was half opened again, but it was still a long way from being fully opened.
Everyone had a solemn expression.
The adults were all worried, but the three children looked ignorant and curious.
When Sanbao's blood also flowed into the small hole, a miracle happened.
The entire stone gate was moved away.
I didn't expect Sanbao's blood to have such great power. Is it because she is a girl?
Yu Yuanzheng couldn't figure it out.
In short, once the blood of the three treasures was absorbed, the stone moved to both sides until it stopped.
So no one was impatient to enter, but waited for the air to circulate for a while before entering.
Pine sap torches also consume some air.
The time was almost up, and Elder Du took the lead.
The three children were held in the arms of adults and could avoid danger in time.
Under the light of torches, Yu Yuanzheng followed the prince step by step, holding Shangguan Ziqi's hand.
"Husband, I feel like we are going downward." Yu Yuanzheng felt that every step she took was leaning slightly downward.
"Yeah, I think so too."
Elder Du was carefully checking for any mechanisms or hidden weapons along the way.
What's strange is that, on the rest of the way, I didn't even hear him say where there was a trap.
In other words, once you pass the Blood Gate, it means you are recognized?
No one followed him silently. The passage was not wide, just enough for two people to walk side by side.
There are various patterns on the mountain walls on both sides.
They don't have time to study now.
It took about a quarter of an hour.
Suddenly, there is an open space in front.
There are stone steps under your feet.
Just now, we were all marching in a single column, with only three torches lit.
Now that the field is so wide, the area that torches can illuminate is limited.
The prince asked the other guards to light the torches in their hands.
Now everyone could see the scenery clearly.
"Oh my God, so many cars." Yu Yuanzheng exclaimed.
All you can see are vehicles used on the battlefield.
Chariots, siege engines, catapults, ladders...
She recognized a few, but had never seen many before.
In order to take up less space, the vehicles are stacked up one by one.
And so many of them have not rotted.
Yu Yuanzheng didn't know how the previous dynasty had preserved it.
However, there is no air circulation inside, so it is probably not easy for it to rot.
Yu Yuanzheng used the firelight to carefully look at one of the cars. The car body was shiny and glossy.
It turned out to be covered with thick paint.
"Husband, could these be the treasures?" Yu Yuanzheng was a little disappointed when she saw a large number of cars.
"Let's look for it."
The prince was a little disappointed when he saw so many cars.
If we discover it before defeating Canglan, there is still some hope.
There are no wars now, and these things are gone too.
Most of them were used to arm the Wei army.
And there are so many of these things placed here, I don't know if there is any left, I have to try it to know.
"Let's take a look around." The prince put away his slight look of disappointment.
Everyone did not separate, but gathered together so that in case of any danger, they could remind and help each other.
Yu Yuanzheng looked at this vast area and felt that it was not formed by heaven.
"Husband, do you feel that this place seems to have been dug out by humans?"
"Yes, generally speaking, a cave formed by itself cannot be so wide and neat. And you see, there are several pillars to prevent the mountain from collapsing." Shangguan Ziqi explained, pointing to the large stone pillars at certain intervals.
Yu Yuanzheng saw that the stone pillars were not normal cylindrical shapes at all, but rather very random shapes. No wonder she didn't immediately think of them as man-made.
They are just left randomly when digging.
When they passed a parking area, they saw countless swords, guns, arrows, shields and other weapons commonly used in the army on the mountainside.
These are things you need to get on the battlefield.
Nothing else.
Everyone was a little disappointed.
But keep checking.
Everyone held a hope that the previous dynasty would not have spent so much money just to hide some cars and weapons.
There must be something they haven't discovered.
But because the light is from a torch, it can't reach far.
Elder Du walked in front and took everyone to look around the entire storage room.
"Your Highness, let's take a closer look at the surroundings." Shangguan Ziqi suggested.
"Yes, there should be more treasure rooms, and this is just one of them." Prince Jing immediately agreed.
"Yes, I think so too."
"Prince, I just noticed something strange in that location." The prince pointed in a direction.
They just passed by there.
"Grandfather, I also saw something there, like a light." Sanbao suddenly spoke.
The direction she pointed to was exactly the direction the prince mentioned.
Everyone headed in that direction again.
This is exactly where a group of big swords were placed.
"Sanbao, that bright light you saw is it the swords shining reversely because of the fire?" Yu Yuanzheng was a little suspicious whether the child had seen it wrong.
"No, mother, there is really light." Sanbao was very sure.
The prince looked at Sanbao and felt that sometimes children's feelings were more direct and sensitive.
"Move all these knives away and see what's underneath?" the prince decided.
Then everyone took action together.
There were only about a thousand knives in this pile, leaning against each other to form a mountain of knives. And the knives didn't even have sheaths.
Excluding the three children, there were eighteen adults in total.
It took three quarters of an hour to remove the knife.
As a result, a clue was discovered.
At the foot of the knife mountain is a circular stone gate.
And this stone gate is also controlled by a mechanism.
Elder Du went forward to check.
He spent two quarters of an hour and still couldn't figure it out.
The prince saw that he didn't notice anything.
He also stood on the stone gate and looked.
There is also a dragon carved on the stone gate.
There is a tiny gap in the middle, but I can't see where the mechanism is.
"Uncle Rong, our key has not been used yet. Could it be the key to open this door?" The prince also stood by and observed.
"Your Highness is right. It should be that place. Let's look for the keyhole again." The prince looked around with the help of the firelight.
"Your Highness, look there." Yu Yuanzheng suddenly spoke.
Everyone looked in the direction she pointed, and saw a relatively hidden small hole on the mountain wall not far from the stone gate.
Because the light couldn't get in, it seemed a little dark there.
A few people walked over, moved the torches closer, and looked through the small hole.
Indeed, there were words on the bottom of the hole, and they were exactly the four words below the jade seal of the previous dynasty: The Mandate of Heaven.
The patterns around it are exactly the same as those on the jade seal.
The character 㱕 on the jade seal is in reverse 㱕, while these characters are in normal 㱕.
The two are a perfect match.
The prince took out the jade seal from his arms.
Only then did Elder Du see clearly what the prince was holding.
"The imperial seal of the previous dynasty?"
"Does Elder Du know him?" the prince asked doubtfully.
"Your Highness, I have seen the picture in a book of ancient relics."
"Then have you seen the imperial seal of the Great Wei?" The prince narrowed his eyes.
"Your Highness, I have never seen it. I am just a man of the world, how could I have seen what the emperor has in his hand?" Elder Du immediately made his attitude clear.
The prince took the jade seal and gently put it into the small hole.
Then press hard.
There was a "click" sound.
The circular stone door on the ground really moved slowly from the middle to both sides, revealing a deep cave entrance.
