The powerful princess arrives with a space warehouse

The secret passage is not narrow, and can even accommodate three people walking side by side. Entering from the entrance, there is a small luminous pearl inlaid on the wall inside. Layers of steep steps can be vaguely seen, winding their way underground, with no end in sight.

As soon as I stepped onto the stairs, I felt the cold air coming up from underground. It seemed that it must be very deep down there.

The steps seemed to be hammered out of a deep hole in the mountain, but they were very smooth, which was not easy. Perhaps because they were afraid that the steps would be slippery, they even laid carpets on them.

This shows that this secret passage is a relatively important passage. Because there is a night-shining pearl in the passage, they don't need to take out a flashlight to illuminate it.

Chu Feng walked in front to explore the way, followed by Chu Chenjing and Ouyang Yunyao, and Han Fengli brought up the rear.

In fact, the reason they took such a risk was not to explore for iron ore, but mainly to find the person who raised the poisonous insects mentioned by Nangong Xuanyi. He was a wizard named Bamudan from southern Xinjiang. He said that he was under the mountain and if this person was not eliminated, it would be a great disaster if he stayed.

They walked down the stairs. The secret passage was winding and the stairs were steep and sharp. No wonder the stairs were covered with carpets, so they were not slippery at all. Although the passage was inlaid with night pearls, they were not big. There were only small pearls inlaid at a certain distance. In addition, the passage was winding, so it was not only dark inside, but also cold.

In this empty secret passage, there were only the echoes of four people's footsteps, which made people feel terrified for no reason. If it weren't for these few people, anyone else would definitely be a little scared.

After walking for a while, they found a small cave with a protruding rock next to it where they could rest for a while.

Ouyang Yunyao touched the stone wall of the cave with her hand and said to the others, "This small cave and the passage above are both stone paths of the mountain itself."

Chu Chenjing said, "Maybe they found ore here and discovered this natural passage during their exploration."

They continued walking down the secret passage.

After walking for about quarter of an hour, the secret passage gradually became wider. This might be a naturally formed rock cave. Sometimes there was a hanging stone on the top, sometimes there was a small cave, and sometimes there was a small fork. However, the secret passage was relatively flat. Sometimes you had to go down a few stone steps and turn a few steps, and sometimes there was a small slope.

The natural cave road in the mountain has more twists and turns as you go down, and there are also many forks, but fortunately there are night pearls to guide the way, so you won't get lost in this maze-like cave.

As they walked, they came to a larger cave with many protruding rocks and many forks in the road. They discovered that the cliffs of two of the paths were inlaid with small luminous pearls.

"Your Majesty, there are two roads here. Which way should I go?"

"Of these two roads, one should lead to the top of the mountain, and the other should lead to the bottom of the mountain. What do you think?" Chu Chenjing analyzed.

"Ajing, you are right." Han Fengli also echoed.

Ouyang Yunyao took Nangong Xuanyi out of the space and said, "Instead of guessing like this, why not ask him?"

"Little Princess, that's a good idea. Do we need to give him the truth serum pill again?"

"No, I can just prick a few acupuncture points with silver needles. The effect of the medicine just now has not yet expired."

Ouyang Yunyao had just pricked his head with a few silver needles when Han Fengli began to ask, "Nangong Xuanyi, where do the two roads here lead to?"

"Going down leads to the mining tunnel, and going straight leads to Tiger Roaring Peak."

"How do I find Bamudan?"

He blinked his dull eyes for a while before saying, "Go into another cave from the side of the mining cave."

After he finished speaking, Ouyang Yunyao pulled out the silver needle on his head, and he was sent into the space by Ouyang Yunyao like a dead fish.

The four of them walked quickly down the secret passage without any worries this time. They walked for a while, and one side was rocky, so the road was relatively flat and wide, but the other side was bottomless. "A Jing, is there a swamp below that leads to the bottom of the cliff?" Ouyang Yunyao, who was following behind Chu Chenjing, asked.

"I don't know. It's dark down there and bottomless." Chu Chenjing picked up a stone and threw it down. There was no sound for a long time. It seemed that it was very deep down there, maybe a swamp.

Several people continued to walk along the winding secret passage, which was like a circle with a certain slope. They walked down from the cliff for half an hour. According to the current time, it was more than an hour and a half, but they still hadn't found the place where they said they would mine iron ore. Fortunately, the four of them talked while walking, so they didn't feel how long the secret passage was.

At this time, the sound of "bang, bang" of stones hitting each other reached their ears.

"Your Highness, there is a sound," Chu Feng said, and everyone stopped.

The voice of the person monitoring the monitors in the space rang in Ouyang Yunyao's mind, "Princess, we have discovered that many people are digging iron ore under the cave."

“Okay, got it.”

"A Jing, there is a cave over there. The surveillance camera found that the place below the cave is where they mine iron ore."

"Well, we heard the noise. Let's be careful."

"Ajing, let's put on the invisibility cloak"

"Well, it's better to wear an invisibility cloak."

Ouyang Yunyao took out four invisibility cloaks, and the four of them quickly put on the invisibility cloaks. When they turned the corner, they found a large cave, where they could clearly hear the crisp knocking sound of "ding ding dang dang".

There were also various sounds of beating and scolding, the clear "crackling" sound of whips hitting people, and the sound of wooden wheelbarrows crushing gravel.

When they walked into the cave, they found that they could see people mining iron ore below. There was a staircase extending downwards in the cave, which led to the place where iron ore was mined below.

"Look, this is where they mine iron ore. It looks like there's a lot of it." Ouyang Yunyao said with shining eyes.

"Yes, this mine is not small. Let's go down and take a look." Chu Chenjing also sighed, and took Ouyang Yunyao's hand and walked towards the cave where the iron ore was mined.

Wearing invisible cloaks, they walked into the cave for mining iron ore without any worries. Standing in the mining cave, they found that the cave was not closed. They could see the sky and the lighting was good.

This place is right under the straight stone wall behind the Tiger Roaring Peak. There is also a stone wall of a mountain on the other side. This is a small valley in the triangular area of ​​the stone wall. It is quite hidden, no wonder no one can find it.

The iron ore cave is tall and large, and a lot of ore has been mined. This is the iron mine of the Southern Chu State.

Ouyang Yunyao was moved by the sight of this huge iron mine. If she could see the mined iron ore and ironware, she would definitely buy some. These would be used to compensate Chu Chenjing's uncle and others.
