Wu Yu Saves the World

The group trudged along the winding mountain road. The surrounding mountains were so steep that they seemed like they would collapse at any time.

Uncle Chen couldn't help but sigh at the scene before him.

"This place has excellent feng shui. If it weren't on the border, it would have been the focus of the dispute between the two countries long ago."

There was a gleam in his eyes, as if he could see through the layers of mountains and see the secrets hidden deep inside.

"Moreover, I guess this must be the place where the treasures of the ancient royal family and nobles were gathered."

Uncle Chen continued, his voice full of mystery and anticipation.

After hearing this, everyone couldn't help but feel excited, as if they had already seen the glittering treasure right before their eyes.

They walked forward for a while, and saw Zhang Qiling suddenly stop, staring straight ahead, as if thinking about something.

He walked forward silently for a while, then suddenly stopped, bent his legs, and knelt on the ground. He clasped his hands together and closed his eyes, as if he was performing some mysterious ritual.

Seeing this, Wu Xie walked forward curiously, stood next to Zhang Qiling, and wanted to find out what was going on.

But Zhang Qiling seemed to be immersed in his own world, turning a deaf ear to everything in the outside world.

As time went by, the sky gradually darkened. The group was exhausted, but the destination was still out of reach.

Fatty Wang couldn't help but complain, "Shunzi, did you take the wrong road? Why haven't we arrived yet?"

After hearing this, Shunzi felt a little anxious.

He suddenly remembered that there was a hot spring nearby, so he quickly took out a rope, had everyone tie themselves together, and then headed forward to find the hot spring.

As Wu Xie walked, he called out Zhang Qiling's name, fearing that he would get lost in the dark.

Zhang Qiling looked back at him and couldn't help but think of Qi Yu, and shouted: "Even in the worst case scenario, I will save your life. I promised her."

At this moment, Uncle Chen suddenly became exhausted and fainted on the ground.

Shunzi saw this and hurried forward to check on him.

He suggested that everyone split up and look for the hot spring, as it should be nearby.

So, everyone tied ropes and each person walked in a certain direction, half crawling and half walking to find the hot spring.

Wu Xie was also tied with a rope. After walking alone for a while, he felt sleepy.

He tried to pat himself to remind himself not to sleep, but he eventually ran out of energy and fell asleep.

After a while, Uncle Chen woke up slowly. He slowly took out a black stone from his body. The surface of the stone was uneven, and seemed to be full of traces of time.

He stared at the stone for a while, as if searching for some clue or memory.

Wu Xie was originally immersed in thought in the snow, but Uncle Chen's action woke him up from his thoughts.

He raised his head and suddenly saw a person walking towards him. The person's figure looked blurry and familiar in the wind and snow.

Wu Xie rubbed his eyes, took a closer look, and actually recognized that it was his third uncle.

Wu Sansheng waved to Wu Xie, motioning him to come over.

Wu Xie shook his head and said he couldn't walk.

He suddenly realized that this might be an illusion caused by the cold and fatigue.

The Wu Sansheng in front of him gradually became younger and was wearing a diving suit, which was very different from the image in Wu Xie's memory.

Wu Xie thought that this might not be the real Wu Sanxing, but Jie Lianhuan.

Xie Lianhuan suddenly spoke up, saying that Wu Sanxing owed him a life and asked him when he would pay it back.

After hearing this, Wu Xie took a few steps back in fear, his heart filled with fear and confusion.

At this moment, the rope behind him suddenly tightened, pulling him backwards.

Wu Xie screamed, lost his balance and fell backwards.

As Wu Xie fell, the entire team fell into chaos.

Everyone screamed and tried to steady themselves.

However, the snow was too soft and everyone's struggle was in vain. In the end, everyone fell to the same place.

After everyone steadied themselves, they found a huge stone plate in front of them with a coiled dragon carved on it.

The dragon looked lifelike, as if it would take off into the sky at any time.

Everyone was surprised and hurriedly called Uncle Chen to come and check it out.

At the same time, Tai Er and another team also encountered difficulties.

The team leader looked at the steep mountain road ahead, shook his head and said they couldn't go any further.

Ahead is an area where avalanches frequently occur. It is too dangerous.

Jin Yang also agreed with the team leader's opinion and suggested that everyone rest for a night and wait for the weather to improve before continuing on their journey.

Tai Er felt somewhat unwilling, but he also knew that the team leader and Jin Yang were telling the truth.

He sighed helplessly and was about to order the camp to rest when his cell phone suddenly rang. It was Jude Kao calling.

Jude Kao told Tai Er on the phone that Jin Yang was carrying the black stone, and only by following him would they not get lost.

On the other side, Uncle Chen walked over with firm steps on the snow. He looked around and asked everyone to clear the snow on the stone carvings so that he could see more clearly and make an identification.

Wu Xie stood aside, staring closely at every detail on the stone sculpture.

He noticed some damaged areas on the stone sculpture and couldn't help but feel puzzled.

He speculated that the broken pieces might have fallen from above the stone sculpture, which was originally supposed to be a pattern of two dragons playing with a pearl.

Wu Xie guessed that the damage to this part might have been caused by an avalanche or an earthquake.

However, after hearing Wu Xie's speculation, Uncle Chen shook his head slightly, revealing a hint of disdain.

He sneered and said, "You kid, you are so arrogant when you only know half of the truth. This is not a pair of dragons playing with a pearl, but the sealing stone of the underground palace."

Wu Xie was stunned by Uncle Chen's words and touched his nose awkwardly.

At this moment, someone suddenly pulled a horse chain out of the dragon's mouth. Wu Xie's eyes suddenly lit up and he said to Uncle Chen with a smile.

"It seems that I was wrong."

He asked Uncle Chen curiously.

“Why is there a sealing stone here?”

Uncle Chen did not answer his question directly, but pointed at the stone sculpture and motioned everyone to continue observing.

Zhang Qiling stood aside, quietly observing the stone sculpture and the surrounding environment.

After a while, he suddenly approached the crowd and asked in a low voice: "Do you smell anything?"

Upon hearing this, everyone leaned close to sniff and indeed, they smelled a faint smell of sulfur.

Zhang Qiling frowned and said, "It seems someone has been here before."

Just then, Brother Hua discovered some traces left by the archaeological team nearby, and he called everyone to go over and check it out.

Everyone gathered together and carefully observed the marks on the stone wall. They saw some ancient characters engraved on the stone wall, which seemed to be the characters on the Luhuang Silk Book from the Warring States Period.

Around the words, there are some traces of life, such as black marks left by cooking smoke and footprints.

Wu Xie carefully observed the words on the stone wall, trying to decipher their meaning.

He frowned and read every word, trying to understand the message conveyed by these ancient texts.

Fatty Wang found a notebook signed by Zhao Yuzheng on the snow.

He picked up the notebook and flipped through it, and found that it contained some records about the activities and discoveries of the archaeological team.

He showed the notebook to Uncle Chen, but Uncle Chen didn't seem interested in it. He waved his hand and asked everyone to continue looking for an exit.

Just then, Zhang Qiling came over and said to everyone.

"No need to look, we need to go and take a look at the stone dragon just now."

Hearing this, everyone followed him toward the stone dragon. As they approached the stone dragon, they found that the smell of sulfur became stronger.

Zhang Qiling stood in a place and gently kicked a stone with his foot, revealing a hole.

Fatty Wang curiously moved closer and peered through the gap. He found it was quite warm inside, and there were words on the stone wall below.

He excitedly called everyone to come over and check it out.
