Chapter 774 This method is really amazing
He used his Queting Divine Eyes to observe carefully and found that both the walls and the floor tiles had a special aura, as if they were coated with cinnabar, a specialty of Chenzhou.
These cinnabars effectively blocked the invasion of many giant poisonous insects. When Chen Yulou and others hid in the palace, the number of poisonous insects was much less than that outside.
Furthermore, because cinnabar contains mercury, the unique and strong scent it emits obscures the earthy atmosphere of the entire hall.
Xu Nuo had tried to use Queting Divine Eyes to search before, but was unable to find the aura of the treasure.
Obviously, the precious aura emitted by the jade, gems, etc. in the hall was completely overshadowed by the characteristics of cinnabar.
This was the first time Xu Nuo discovered that Queting Shenmu was insufficient.
The layers of cinnabar painted inside the hall made the entire hall radiant and dazzling, but also made Xu Nuo's search difficult.
Fortunately, the golden-patterned toad Gu relied on its natural instincts without being disturbed and still accurately pointed out the location of the treasure well.
Xu Nuo knew in his heart that the most precious items in the mortal world reflected inside Pingshan were all in this treasure well.
This was the core place for alchemy during the Tang and Song dynasties, especially the Song dynasty. Countless gold, jade, jewels, alchemy tools and rare medicinal materials were gathered here.
Then he walked into the center of the rear hall and saw a huge jade-carved lid lying in the middle of the ground, with many lifelike rare birds and animals and exotic flowers and plants carved on it.
The lid is more than ten feet in diameter and is extremely delicate.
As soon as he saw it, Xu Nuo immediately understood that this jade lid not only sealed the breath inside the treasure well, but also concealed all the spiritual energy and the smell of elixir.
This layout shows that the Pingshan Dan Palace Treasure Well is kept confidential to a very high degree.
Without some ability or luck, it will take some effort to find the exact location of the treasure well.
At this moment, Chen Yulou, Partridge Whistle, Hong Girl and others followed Xu Nuo and stepped into the magnificent back hall.
When everyone's eyes touched the jade lid in the middle, they lit up, "Wow, this is not ordinary white marble, but authentic high-quality jade."
"For a lid this big, the raw materials alone are worth a fortune." Chen Yulou was quite knowledgeable about the market and naturally saw the value of this item at a glance.
But then, Chen Yulou's expression dimmed.
It is impossible to transport such a huge jade lid away in one piece.
Unless you break it into pieces and take it away, this will greatly reduce its value.
Even if you are lucky enough to get it, it is still not easy to find a suitable buyer.
While he was worrying about this matter, Xu Nuo had other thoughts in his mind.
This jade lid has guarded the Treasure Well for at least hundreds of years. Not only is its material unique, but it has also absorbed the earth's energy from Pingshan and the spiritual energy from the elixir in the Treasure Well over the years, and has long been quite spiritual.
It would be a pity to just sell them, it would be better to transport them back and use them for feng shui layout.
Whether it is used as a solid backing stone next to a medicinal field or as a Feng Shui stone to protect the house in Fenghuang Village, it is extremely suitable.
If I intend to build a cave dwelling in Xiangxi, the place I would choose should undoubtedly be near Fenghuang Village.
Transporting this item over there may be an option.
Thinking of this, Xu Nuo immediately called Chen Yulou and asked the strong men to help come in and work. He planned to use ropes and crowbars to carefully remove the jade lid completely and temporarily place it in the corner of the hall.
Afterwards, Xu Nuo promised that he could use the sun and moon space in the pot to store it, and there would be no problem of not being able to accommodate it.
The efficiency of the Xiangling warriors is truly superb.
In less than a quarter of an hour, with the concerted efforts of seven or eight strong men, they had successfully lifted the jade cover from the well and moved it to the side of the temple by means of ropes, crowbars and other tools.
The moment the lid was opened, a cold and chilly wind suddenly gushed out from the bottom of the well.
The well had been closed for hundreds of years. The cold wind not only made a rustling sound, but also caused the glazed tiles hanging above to vibrate violently.
Upon seeing this, Chen Yulou, Queqiao Shao and others as well as other participating Xiangling Lishi dared not approach rashly and stepped back a few steps.
There was a faint golden light flashing on Xu Nuo's forehead. After investigating with his divine eyes, Queting confirmed that although the wind was chilly, there was no obvious evil or danger.
The initial whiff of putrid smell mixed with the scent of medicine was soon dispersed by the strong wind.
However, a layer of black dust mixed with cinnabar, mercury vapor and the smell of decaying corpses was left inside the gaps between the glazed tiles.
So Xu Nuo waited patiently for the strong wind released from the well to slow down a little before he slowly approached the well and looked down.
This precious well goes straight into the ground, and the well mouth is about ten feet wide.
Looking down, the view does not narrow at all, but becomes wider as you go down.
The widest part of it is more than ten feet in diameter, and its shape is like an inverted trumpet.
It does not continue to widen until it extends downward for dozens of meters, returning to its normal vertical downward well wall state.
All the well walls have been polished smooth, and there are artificially carved holes on the steep walls at certain intervals.
There are no obvious steps around the cave entrance, only some grooves, which are obviously not convenient for people to climb.
However, a faint orange-yellow light continued to emanate from these grooves. After a closer look, Xu Nuo discovered that in each cave there was a statue of a golden-armored deity, holding stone lamps made of dark green stone.
The grooves outside the cave are specially designed for stone lamps.
The light in the stone lamp has not been extinguished after hundreds of years.
This treasure well is unfathomable and its depth cannot be determined for the time being.
In addition, the entrance to the well wall is recessed, and there are no obvious rock cracks to climb below, so it is extremely difficult to climb down directly.
Although the strong men of Xiangling brought centipede mountain ladders, it was still impractical to use them on such a smooth cave wall.
Only after descending to the depression with a rope and making arrangements, and then setting up the rope ladder, can more strong men go down the well one by one.
The person who goes down the well to explore the way at the beginning is particularly important. He not only needs superb skills, but also extraordinary courage.
At this time, before everyone could react, Xu Nuo took the lead and said, "I'll go down first."
This is not an attempt to show off.
There are obviously many rare treasures hidden under the treasure well. Although the risk is quite high for those who go down first, the resulting profits are also very tempting.
Especially now that Xu Nuo has mastered the space of the sun and the moon in the pot, he always feels that it is empty and deserted, and feels quite uncomfortable.
If some gold, silver and jewelry are not included, it will be difficult to meet his expectations.
As soon as he finished speaking, the strong men knew that they could not compete with Xu Nuo, but Partridge Whistle immediately stood up and said, "Boss Xu, let me go down with you. If anything happens, we can take care of each other." After thinking for a while, Xu Nuo nodded in agreement.
After all, this time when going down the well, we need help with setting up ropes and ladders, which is just the right thing for Partridge Whistle to do.
Promise yourself that you don't intend to worry about these trivial matters.
The two of them were ready quickly.
Partridge Whistle ordered his men to tie ropes around the pillars of the hall and tied a knot around his waist. He then aimed at the wall of the well and swung quickly along it.
This scene shocked all the strong men present.
I saw the partridge whistle hanging on a rope, and when it swung, it actually stuck directly to the extremely smooth wall of the well.
This technique is really amazing.
There were almost no obvious cracks on the surface of the well wall to grab onto, and the onlookers were all puzzled as to the reason, except Xu Nuo, whose eyes suddenly lit up.
It turned out that when Partridge Whistle was approaching the wall of the well with the help of a rope, a number of sharp iron hooks suddenly emerged from under his Taoist robe.
Xu Nuo immediately understood that this was the magical weapon in Partridge Whistle's possession - the Digging and Climbing Pangolin.
This item is made of shark skin, which is very tough and has excellent defensive effects.
The most unique feature of the armor is that the joints of the armor, such as the elbows, wrists, knees and ankles, are equipped with many tiny and sharp iron hooks and barbs.
Normally, these iron hooks are cleverly hidden in special grooves inside the climbing armor, and can be popped out simply by controlling the spring switch on the back. They are called "climbing hooks."
These hooks are well made and are both strong and sharp.
Once it is ejected, the partridge whistle is like a giant insect, with steel spikes spread out on its limbs. It relies on the swinging force of the rope to firmly embed itself into the rock of the well wall. Even when facing an extremely slippery well wall, it can still stick to it as firmly as a giant gecko.
After Xu Nuo saw through the tricks of the partridge whistle, a reminder instantly sounded in his mind: "You observed the Taoist monk Banshan performing the method of digging for a child and climbing a pangolin, and suddenly you had some enlightenment and learned the Golden Light Shock Qi Technique."
The reason why he agreed to let Partridge Whistle go down the well with him was, on the one hand, to let him share some of the hard work, and on the other hand, he also wanted to get some benefits at the same time.
He had learned many magical skills from Chen Yulou before.
At present, apart from the skills of fortune-telling and bone-touching that he relies on to make a living after becoming blind, Chen Yulou's potential has almost been fully tapped by Xu Ke.
Therefore, there is not much practical significance in letting Chen Yulou go down the well again.
However, Partridge Whistle possesses many exquisite skills, which have not yet been fully displayed. This is something that Xu Nuo should pay attention to.
In order to give Partridge Whistle more opportunities to display his talents, and at the same time to make use of Partridge Whistle's strengths, Xu Nuo can also use his extraordinary understanding to gain greater benefits.
Opportunities like this don't come often.
Only if Partridge Whistle gives his all, will Xu Nuo be able to continue to gain more treasures and skills.
For example, the Golden Light Shock Qi Technique that I just learned from Juezi Panama is an extremely advanced external martial art.
This martial art is mainly used for defense, but it is more proactive than the Vajra Indestructible Magic Skill he learned before and has a certain counterattack capability - when the enemy attacks Xu Nuo, a circle of airflow like golden armor will automatically appear on the surface of his body and can rebound the enemy's force back.
Due to Xu Nuo's powerful cultivation, the recoil force even exceeds the scope of the opponent's force, and he does not need to deliberately control it. It will be activated naturally when he is attacked, which makes it very suitable for group battles.
At this time, he walked closer to the treasure well with a smile on his face.
Hua Maguai hurriedly handed over the rope.
But Xu Nuo didn't use it. He jumped directly into the well.
This action immediately shocked everyone in the surrounding Xiangling - this seemingly bottomless abyss was so deep that even the Cun Phosphorus that was thrown in earlier could not touch the bottom.
Even taking into account the influence of the well wind, this well must be more than a hundred meters deep. If an ordinary person falls into it, he will either die or be crippled.
There were cries of surprise all around for a moment, and then total silence.
After Xu Nuo fell into the well, he used the Flying Night Demon Technique and flew into the air like an evil ghost until he reached a groove halfway through the well without stopping.
