The hero fell for the cannon fodder maid.

Chapter 161 Entering the Underground

Looking at this desolate grave, she didn't know who was buried in it. Although she was very curious, she was still afraid. Moreover, He Jingming didn't make any moves. He didn't do anything, so she didn't dare to act rashly.

He Jingming looked at the tomb and observed the surrounding environment. The land under their feet was very flat, but the mountain in front looked like it was cut in half. It should be man-made mining. This is indeed the entrance to the treasure.

But why use a tomb as the entrance? It looks very unlucky. Why did Old Man Tianji design it like this? He doesn't know if there is any danger inside. He is still quite worried. If he goes in, he must protect Yue'er.

Now they could only mark this place and send people to dig after dawn. The secret guard in the distance had already received the news from his master, and he called a few brothers to wait together.

Xiao Wanyue marked this place and prepared to go back to sleep. She was really sleepy. Then she realized that her legs were so sore and she had no strength at all. Thinking that she still had to walk such a long way, she couldn't help but sigh in her heart.

He Jingming kept pulling Xiao Wanyue. Seeing his wife's unhappy face, He Jingming squatted down in front of Xiao Wanyue and said, "Come up, your husband will carry you back."

Xiao Wanyue was stunned for a moment and then happily jumped on He Jingming's back. Then she buried her head in He Jingming's neck and relaxed completely.

God knows how tired she was. Actually, she just didn't want to walk. Another thing was that the grass here was so deep that she wondered if there were snakes or something.

You know, she is very afraid of snakes, and she feels much more comfortable on He Jingming's back.

He Jingming carried Xiao Wanyue on his back and slowly walked back the way they came.

The surrounding environment is very quiet, and the air is a little cool at night in summer. It is a rare opportunity to stroll slowly in nature.

He Jingming enjoyed this kind of time very much. He shook the person on his back, but Xiao Wanyue didn't react at all. She put all her heart and soul into Zhou Kilometer. What else was important to her than sleeping? She was so sleepy that she rarely went out to sleep so late. She even suspected that if she kept looking for a while, it might be dawn.

He Jingming did not receive a response, and he knew that the person on his back had fallen asleep. He quickened his pace towards the tent and returned to the camp in a quarter of an hour. He gently placed the person on the bed and asked someone to bring hot water. He took off Xiao Wanyue's shoes and soaked them in the warm water of suitable temperature.

Xiao Wanyue felt that she was in a warm environment. She hummed unconsciously and found a more comfortable position to fall asleep.

He Jingming laughed in silence. He wiped the person's feet dry, put her on the bed, took off her coat, removed her hairpin, and covered her with the quilt. He also quickly washed up, went to bed, and fell asleep in his arms around his beloved woman.

The next morning, Xiao Wanyue felt extremely hot and sweaty all over. The man next to her hugged her very tightly. She thought, isn't this man hot at all? She just couldn't stand it.

Xiao Wanyue pushed the person next to her, and He Jingming opened his eyes, only to see Xiao Wanyue looking at him with an unhappy expression.

He was a little overwhelmed and asked, "What's wrong with Yue'er?"

Xiao Wanyue snorted and said, "How dare you say that? Why are you holding me so tight? Besides, you're so hot, I'm sweating all over."

He Jingming felt a little helpless because the bedroom in the palace was full of ice, but there was no such condition in the wild.

It was all because he was not prepared. If Xiao Wanyue knew, she would definitely think that he was crazy. It was not because he hugged her too tightly that she felt hot. In fact, this summer morning was not hot at all. Because it was morning, there was a hint of coolness. However, He Jingming had no self-awareness and naturally would not think that it was his fault.

Xiao Wanyue sat up and said, "Let me go for a moment. I need to get up. You should hurry up too. We still have to go find the entrance to the treasure."

Xiao Wanyue rolled over He Jingming's body directly. He Jingming was a little reluctant, but he got up soon after.

Xiao Wanyue quickly put on her clothes and washed up. He Jingming was also ready. The two of them came to the big tent and found that several people had already arrived. There were quite a few people, including Zhou Mu and his son, Zhao Changgeng, Meng Yinzhou, Xiao Lingqing and others. They were all familiar with this place. After all, they escaped from danger here last time.

He Jingming looked at everyone and said, "After breakfast, we will go to the entrance. Yue'er and I discovered the entrance yesterday. Be careful when you go down."

Everyone was a little surprised. They didn't expect that the secret guards had been looking for the entrance for so long but couldn't find it, but the two of them found it as soon as they went there. It must be because they were blessed by God. They admired them even more.

Everyone sat down and started to eat. The breakfast was simple, just steamed buns, steamed bread, and eggs. After they were full, they headed towards the entrance.

Qingluan Mountain is very large and has a complex terrain. If they are not led by someone familiar with the place, they may get lost or even die in an unknown place. They all looked around vigilantly, fearing that there was any danger they had not noticed.

The group did not encounter any danger along the way and everyone breathed a sigh of relief. But when they arrived at the entrance, they were dumbfounded. What did they see? Where was the entrance? Wasn't this just a tomb?

Could this tomb be the entrance?

The expressions on everyone's faces were different. He Jingming and Xiao Wanyue also saw that everyone was in disbelief. In fact, she was also in disbelief, but that was the fact.

Under everyone's puzzled gaze, He Jingming said to them, "The entrance is just as you think. It's in the tomb."

The expressions on their faces were so wonderful, I never expected that.

Xiao Wanyue wanted to laugh, it turned out that she was not the only one who felt shocked.

The secret guards began to clear the weeds on the grave, and the personal guards began to dig. The grave was dug up in a quarter of an hour, and there was nothing inside the coffin. The secret guards checked again and found a bulge at one end of the coffin. When they pressed hard, a secret passage appeared under the coffin.

The secret passage was bottomless and pitch black, looking very dangerous. The secret guard then threw fire into it, and the fire remained lit inside, indicating that there was air circulation inside.

It's just pitch black inside, so as long as there's air circulation there shouldn't be any big problems.

Xiao Wanyue quickly took out a lot of pills and masks and distributed them to everyone. She left twenty people outside to guard, and the rest went down the secret passage.

As everyone entered the tunnel, torches were lit and the view suddenly opened up. The space was very large, with dozens of large iron boxes inside, all covered with mottled rust.

The secret guards went to check first. As they approached, someone screamed. The leading secret guard shouted, and when he looked forward, he trembled all over. He immediately turned to report to He Jingming: "Your Majesty, who's inside..."
