Chapter 44: Illusions Born from the Heart! There’s Someone in the Team Who Doesn’t Exist!
“Seeking the dragon across thousands of miles, searching left and right, follow the sun for five steps, the shadow follows one.”
Han Li finally responded with this sentence.
As soon as these words came out.
Lao Hu laughed, and his expression clearly regained some confidence.
But…
Fatty, Shirley Yang, and even Professor Chen were a little dizzy and couldn’t understand!
“No, Lao Hu… What did Brother Han just say?”
Fatty looked confused and asked in a low voice.
“It means that my guess is right, because the opening mechanism for the Sixteen Dragons of Earth Penetration is to turn the clock-wise five times and then counter-clockwise once.”
As soon as Lao Hu finished speaking, Fatty also laughed, giving a thumbs-up:
“Brother Han, you are amazing! Lao Hu, look at how profound he is!”
Lao Hu: “…”
He ignored Fatty's changing tune!
According to his understanding of Fatty, if he had said the opening mechanism just now, Fatty would definitely have sarcastically said, ‘Say something that people can understand!’
“Rumble!”
When Lao Hu and Fatty worked together to turn the stone platform, the ground made a huge noise!
Dust flew everywhere!
The stone bricks on the ground sank in, revealing a bottomless tunnel.
The five of them shone flashlights into the dark passage.
There was a black stone staircase, sloping down to the bottom.
The range of the flashlight was limited, and they couldn’t see anything further down.
“The road down is very long, be careful everyone.”
Lao Hu, as always, fulfilled his role as a guide, reminding them.
Fatty volunteered again, taking the lead.
But this time, he was pulled back by Lao Hu: “Who knows what kinds of mechanisms or secret passages are inside, you can’t be too careful!”
“I’ll go first, you stay at the back.”
Saying so.
He glanced at Han Li and Shirley Yang, nodded, held a flashlight in one hand and a submachine gun in the other, and cautiously went down.
As they descended, everyone was very cautious, maintaining a safe distance from each other.
Han Li was in no hurry, walking in the middle, running the Grand Derivation Scripture, concentrating his mind to refine the jade eyeball!
The jade eyeball still contained the residual spiritual power of the Great Priest and the ancient serpent god.
After completely refining it, it might further enhance his spiritual sense!
The five of them reached the end of the stone steps, and the scene before them suddenly opened up, revealing a five-meter wide and three-meter high passage.
The surrounding walls of the passage were no longer made of black stones, but were paved with Western Region Celestial Bricks. The top was built into a round arch, and the walls were covered with strange and colorful murals.
The most common image on the murals was eyes.
They were big and small, open and closed, some only painted the eyeballs, while others also had eyelids and eyelashes.
This passage was very closed off, the air was not circulating, and the colors of the murals were as good as new, without any peeling, which made Professor Chen extremely excited.
“I can’t believe that such well-preserved murals still exist here, this is a discovery that will shock the whole world!”
Professor Chen exclaimed: “Xiao Chu, quickly take pictures, record them!”
Xiao Chu?
Han Li raised an eyebrow and looked at everyone around him.
Neither Professor Chen himself, nor Lao Hu, Shirley Yang, or Fatty, had noticed anything wrong!
At this moment.
Han Li smelled a faint, peculiar fragrance, and instantly activated the cool power of the Eternal Spring Art in his body to refine it.
Holding his breath and calming his mind!
Protecting his mind with spiritual sense!
The influence range of the Corpse Fragrance Devil Lily was beyond his expectations!
Professor Chen was already hallucinating!
So-called illusions born from the heart!
This giant in the field of archaeology devoted his whole heart to archaeology.
Naturally, he would fall into illusions because of the relics, thinking that Chu Jian had also followed him down!
Han Li did not forcibly dispel the illusions and wake everyone up.
Han Tianzun's actions were not about being strong, but about taking every step carefully and striking with lightning speed!
After all!
The Queen of the Jingjue Kingdom behind the Corpse Fragrance Devil Lily had not yet made a move!
Exposing his strength prematurely would only leave flaws for the enemy!
“Listen!”
Up ahead.
Lao Hu couldn’t help but speak.
“What did you hear?”
Fatty, who was walking at the back, was stunned.
“Such a loud sound of water, you didn’t hear it?”
Shirley Yang thought Fatty was being funny, and retorted impatiently.
“We are very close to the underground river!”
Professor Chen nodded.
“Ah… Really?”
Fatty scratched his head: “Where’s the sound of water?”
“Are you pretending again?”
Lao Hu also said impatiently: “Are you deaf?”
“I really didn’t hear it!”
Fatty was suddenly a little anxious, showing that he wasn’t pretending.
“Brother Han, did you also hear the sound of water?”
In the face of the question.
Han Li instantly felt everyone’s eyes on him, and among them seemed to be an invisible gaze!
“Of course, with such a loud sound of water, how could I not hear it?”
Han Li smiled slightly.
“Look, Fatty, you have this kind of ear, you’re born to be at the back!”
Lao Hu immediately laughed and pushed the bewildered Fatty back.
A small episode, the group continued on!
Not long after…
Illuminated by the light, an underground river appeared in the sight of everyone!
“Fatty, you can’t hear it, but you see it this time, right?”
Lao Hu glanced at Fatty, who was in awe.
“I see it, I see it!”
Fatty chuckled: “Finally, I have some water to drink!”
Making sure there was no danger.
Fatty dashed to the bank, cupped his hands and drank, one mouthful after another.
“The spring water of the borderlands is clear and pure, the songs of the borderlands warm the heart!”
After drinking his fill, Fatty even started singing.
The others also scooped up water to drink.
Han Li simply washed his hands, then waved his hand and refused the water bottle Shirley Yang handed him: “Not thirsty, you drink!”
He was telling the truth!
But he also really wanted to refuse!
Because this water wasn’t clean, it wasn’t muddy, but flowed with the juice of the Corpse Fragrance Devil Lily!
“Xiao Ye, you’re right, this river is most likely the disappeared Zi Du River!”
At this moment.
Professor Chen was smiling at the air and answering a question.
No one noticed anything strange about it!
Everything seemed logical.
“Brother Han, what are you standing there for? Xiao Ye is asking you a question!”
At this moment.
Fatty suddenly shouted.
Facing everyone looking at him again, Han Li felt a sense of unease, like a thorn in his back this time!
As if…
If he answered incorrectly, the people in front of him would tear him apart!
