I lay behind the rock for half an hour, but Chen Qinghan still did not show up.

I don't know which path he took, and I want to find him but I'm afraid I'll go wrong with him.

But the lake water is spreading to the shore, and it won’t take long to get dry land in the cave. If I don’t leave, I can only soak it in the water.

After thinking about it, I decided to retreat first and put a stone in the coffin. There was a message I burned with karma fire on the stone. Chen Qinghan could see it when he found the coffin.

I couldn't take the coffin away because it was too heavy. Although it was waterproof, shockproof and fireproof, I had to give up it.

The water level of the lake continued to rise. I left the cave and climbed into a natural passage. There were several entrances to the cave. I deliberately avoided the one underwater creatures and chose a passage that no one went to.

The robe I picked up was indeed not like an ordinary thing. I crawled on the ground, the ground was covered with gravel, but the robe was not worn. As long as I shook it gently, the dust on it would fall off without any stain.

My legs are too short, and my limbs look like the limbs of a child, so they cannot support my adult body. Even if I stand up and walk, it is not easy to maintain balance, so I chose to crawl.

Fortunately, I climbed very quickly. When the lake water flooded into the passage, I had already climbed out of the passage. When the passage was filled with the lake water, I was lying on the beam of a palace.

After coming out of the natural passage, I found a wooden palace outside. The only material used in the building was wood, and metal parts such as nails were not found on it.

I don't know how many years it has stood here. When I climbed up, I could feel that it was still firm, the wood was not decayed, the paint on the surface was still intact, and except for the thick dust on the surface, it almost looked like a new cover.

The natural passage has a significant slope, the other side of the lake is low and the wooden palace is high. I lay on the top of the palace again, thinking that the lake water should not be flooded at this location.

I waited for about ten minutes, but the lake water did not come over. The people who built this wooden palace might have known that the lake water could not overflow the passage, so I built a house here.

The lake water was not flooded, and I breathed a sigh of relief. It seemed that the underground lake also had fluctuations. When its water level receded, I could go back to the lakeside.

I began to look at the wooden palace carefully. It was supported by more than a dozen pillars and was octagonal. The walls were built of stones. The beams were twelve meters high and there was a spire on it. The spire was also made of wood, painted with gold paint. There were screens and thrones in the hall. There were two lamps in front of the screen. They were the shape of two trees, with blooming flowers on the branches, and the flowers were filled with lamp oil.

These two lamps are about 1.7 meters high, and they look like silver lights, and I don’t know if they are real silver or painted with silver paint.

It was not oxidized when hung here. Like a wooden palace, it only fell into thick gray.

If Chen Qinghan was there, he should be able to see some tricks. I don’t know much about human history and I can’t tell who built this palace.

I don't even understand the minimum architectural style, but I know it's very dangerous here, with strange creatures sleeping in the palace.

When I came over, they didn't wake up, and when I burned the "stairs" on the wooden pillars and climbed up, they didn't make any noise, so they still slept soundly.

In addition, I don’t have the ‘living popularity’ in them, and many underground creatures will ignore me.

I was going to wait for the water to fade away, but I left quietly, but I didn't expect someone to suddenly break in, and the noise was quite small.

"nnd, kill you bed bugs!" The person who came had a loud voice. Before the person could arrive, the voice came first. He was slapping the ground with metal tools, and slapped and retreated to this side.

"Haha, are you scared? Don't run away if you have the ability. Come back and fight with grandpa for three hundred-"

His voice came to an abrupt end because he turned his head and saw living things all over the ground, and the living things awakened by him were silently looking at him.

I would rather call it "death stare". When the person came, he turned his face and hugged the pillar beside him, and crawled up with his limbs.

The living creatures in the temple look like sea turtles, but they have sharp thorns on their backs, sharp teeth in their mouths, and claws look like eagles' claws, which makes them difficult to mess with.

Fortunately, these turtles cannot climb pillars, so people come to climb onto the beams, which is temporarily considered safe.

But then I heard a crackling sound, and it turned out that it was a strange tortoise hitting the pillar.

This is too much. I am still on the beam. If the pillars fall, the beam may collapse!

The beam that came to the person hanged was not the same as me, but it is difficult to guarantee that there would be no chain reaction. If the pillar on his side was broken, I would also be affected.

I quickly crawled over, and he was looking down. The eyes of the strange tortoise were strange. I didn't see them just now when they closed their eyes. Now that their eyes were open, I found that their eyes were pure white, with a slightly silver-gray light. They looked up at the person on the beam. I felt that they had vision and were not blind.

The man was full of his mind on the monster turtle, not paying attention that I was approaching him from behind him.

My original intention was to remind him that the palace would collapse even if the pillar collapsed. This palace has been around for a long time, and a load-bearing pillar was destroyed and the whole house was in danger.

But who knew that this man was so brave? I just patted his calves and wanted him to turn around and speak. He reacted very well, kicked his legs and thrust his body, and sat up amid the screams.

He cursed and turned his body and held a short shovel to swing. I was afraid that he would pat me, so I had to retreat and avoid his attack.

He just kicked me in the face. Fortunately, my hair spread out while crawling, and my thick long hair covered my face. His soles were stepping on his hair. He didn't have direct contact with my skin, and he didn't print any shoe prints on my face.

"Ah--What the hell, get out of here, don't touch me!"

He was so excited that continuing to stimulate him would only make him even more crazy. I stepped back a few meters and stopped myself when he was tired.

But he was not honest. When he saw me retreating, he also retreated and wanted to escape somewhere else.

I was not as fast as him. He found that there were other entrances and exits around the palace, so he jumped off the pillar and ran away. The strange tortoises stopped gnawing on the pillar and went to chase him.

He escaped into a passage that I didn't know where to lead. The palace was also connected, and the structure of this underground space was more complicated than I thought.

The man and the turtle ran away, and at this moment I was the only one left in the palace. I remember the man who just ran away, the lake he swam with two women, and they were looking for someone named Zhang Zhao.

Now it seems that he and the two women have also escaped, and he hid in the palace, as if something was chasing him.

But after he entered the palace, nothing chased him. He had no other weapons except the short shovel, so the reason why that thing stopped chasing him should be related to the palace.

The danger in the palace is the monster tortoises. Now the monster tortoise has also left, so I stay here is the safest.

But after a few minutes of safety, fog began to fall above my head again, like dry ice, making the palace clouds and mist. I thought the fog was strange and didn't want to soak in the fog, so I climbed down the beam of the house and stayed in another place.
