Chapter V The Hidden Man's Treasure

The man in white frowned, thinking about this unexplainable situation, why did the three of them jump into the red light without turning back, why did they enter the red light without dying like the others did, why couldn't he stop the three of them, why did he not have the courage to enter the red light?

There were too many questions, too many questions. At this moment, they all turned into an indescribable melancholy.

The moment they ran into the tunnel, they saw the man in white standing at the cave entrance with a conflicted look on his face. When the three of them jumped over the tenth and last corpse, they discovered that the man in white had the expression of a fly, followed by confusion, unwillingness, and puzzlement.

Jiang Cheng had no choice but to be cautious. He slowed down his footsteps and carefully observed the unknown ahead.

"Look, Big Brother, these people must have died from the poison while running." Li Mubai's observation was more detailed.

River City looked around and indeed, it was very obvious. The last dead person was crawling on the ground with a hideous expression on his face. He stretched out his right hand in an attempt to grab onto something in front of him.

"Quick, follow me. Keep going forward!" Jiang Cheng hurriedly said.

"Look at the red on your hands. I think that's why we didn't die like these people." He raised his left hand as he walked.

Zhang Erye and Li Mubai trusted Jiang Cheng unconditionally, so they quickly followed behind.

The tunnel was very long, and it was obviously carved by a human. It was smooth and neat, and it must have been built with great care.

"Why is it dark? Are there any more fires? " When they finally got out of the red light, River City was once again panting heavily.

"Mine is still here!" Zhang Erye responded.

River City raised his left hand as he blew away the fire and discovered that the redness had all disappeared. He was back to normal!

After checking, Zhang Erye and Li Mubai also returned to normal.

Through the faint glow of the fire, River City carefully observed the current situation.

The surprising discovery was that there was a lamp hanging on the wall. The lamp could be ignited, and with the help of the light, the other eight lamps would be lit.

It was another twenty meters squared cave. Other than the nine lamps on the smooth wall, the naked eye could not see any other protrusions or depressions.

Very strange!

"Split up and check to see if there's a way out!" Jiang Cheng covered the fire and handed it back to Zhang Erye.

River City began to observe along the right side of the cave. Using his hands, he began to knock on the cave wall. The height of the cave was such that River City was able to lift his hand and touch the top of the cave.

Seeing Jiang Cheng's actions, Zhang Erye understood how to check and followed the path on the left. Li Mubai walked to the front and started from the middle.

"Big brother, come take a look. There's something wrong here." Zhang Erzi shouted as he continued to hit the ring. It sounded hollow.

"Here too!" Li Mubai also made a discovery.

"Don't be in such a hurry. Make your markings first. Check all of them before looking at them." River City pondered for a moment. If he only found one location, it would be alright. However, if he found two, he would still need to inspect them all before making a decision.

River City continued its inspection.

"Looks like it's gone." After the three of them finished their inspection, River City was the first to walk towards the place where Zhang Erye had marked them.

After knocking on a small piece of land that was emitting a hollow sound, he realized that it was a square that was around one meter in length.

"How should I open it?" Jiang Cheng slammed his palm on the wall as he finished his sentence.

"Hmm?" The hand that had just been smacked down actually caved in along with the wall.

"All of you, come take a look." Jiang Cheng lifted his hand and the sunken rock flew out. It fell straight to the ground, revealing a square hole in the ground.

Jiang Cheng didn't know when the spring appeared in the history of Earth, the feeling he got when he pressed it was clearly the spring.

He took off a lamp and moved it forward, but there was no trace of a spring.

With this, the three of them were able to clearly see the situation inside the square hole.

"The heck, what is going on!?" A multiple choice question? " River City shouted.

On the wall of the square hole, there were several rows of characters. Above them was a row of words: "The same cage for the pheasant and the hare, there are thirty-five of them, and ninety-four of them. Ask the pheasant and the hare, how big are each?"

The next two rows were carved from the sun.

CHAPTER TWENTY-TWO TWENTY-THREE TWENTY-TWENTY-TWO TWENTY-TWO TWENTY-FOUR THE RABBIT 11, 13, 14, and 15 Touch it.

"F * ck you, chicken and rabbit together!" Jiang Cheng immediately had his doubts, what the f * ck was this connection with Earth? This was the origin of the "Grandson Algorithm"!

"Big Brother, what is that thing?" Zhang Erye asked blankly.

"You don't recognize words?"

"Hehe, big brother, how can I recognize words? No one in our village can read words." Zhang Erye was a little shy.

"Mubai, what about you?" River City.

"I don't know how to read either." Li Mubai was calm.

Jiang Cheng sighed in his heart. Luckily, this brother had participated in the Olympian competition back in primary school. He was still able to understand Math in middle school, otherwise, he would have been blinded. Actually, there was no need to calculate this question at all. Just randomly pick an animal to replace it with the number to see if the number of legs were right or not.

To be safe, Jiangcheng did not complain that the chicken for X, rabbit for Y, simply solved the equation.

"Are you going to press or not? What if you were to hit something cold? But you are not willing to do so. You are in a dilemma." River City had never thought of letting Zhang Erye or Li Mubai take the risk either.

"Forget it, I'll live for tens of thousands of years!" Jiang Cheng made up his mind and pressed on the "23rd" button.

"No reaction? This is not scientific! " River City ghost cried out.

Again, '12th', still no response.

"I made a bet!" River City shared both hands as they pressed "23rd" and "12th" at the same time.

As expected, he pressed the button and quickly jumped away. He didn't forget to pull Zhang Li and Wang Chao away as well.

"Crack, crack." Suddenly, a stone wall descended from the entrance. Its speed wasn't fast, but it didn't give the three of them any time to think. Before they could even think about whether they should use this opportunity to leave, the stone wall suddenly sealed off the entrance.

"Ah, what should we do? Big brother, we won't be able to leave this time." Zhang Erye cried out exaggeratedly, but he did not seem to blame him at all.

"Isn't there more? "Again."

Following the same pattern, Li Mubai also discovered a square hole in the hollow area.

"Who knows how many things there are today. Three times three, five times three, seven times seven, two, how many things are there?"

"Twenty-three, twenty-six, eight, twenty-nine!"

There was no need to calculate, unless one had never learned mathematics, he could easily calculate using his fingers, "It's the < Grandson Algorithm > again, just what does this world have to do with Earth?" Jiang Cheng did not believe that this world could produce a person like his grandson.

Jiang Cheng couldn't remember the chants at all, but he knew how to use the simple answers.

He pressed 23, and indeed, there came another "ka ka" sound.

This time, it was the innermost wall that suddenly rose up. Jiang Cheng didn't know what kind of craftsmanship was used to make the gap in the door so that it was completely invisible and one couldn't feel it with one's hands.

"Brother, should we go in?" Li Mubai probed when he saw another pitch-black cave entrance.

"Do we have a choice?" River City shrugged.

He took the lead and walked over. This time, Zhang Erye wasn't stiff, he took out the fire and walked to the front.

It was a smooth cave wall, spotless and a bit narrow, just enough for a person to pass through.

After walking about two hundred meters, he suddenly heard a series of "ka ka" sounds.

"Come, let's go back and take a look." River City signaled Li Mubai, who was following them, to turn back after they finished talking.

The rear team changed into the front, and the three of them turned back.

"Crap, the cave entrance is sealed shut as well." Li Mubai began to panic.

"Let's see if there are any traps." River City was the first to calm down.

After a fruitless search, he finally found the place he had just turned back to. There was no more empty space.

"Keep going forward!" River City's resistance to the unknown had been reduced for no reason. Imagine, in just a short period of time, from a high-rise, to the age of hot weapons, to the ancient era where people watched everything on TV. This difference in strength and fear was enough to make anyone have a big heart.

Stepping forward once more, this time, he only used fifty meters to verify the authenticity of River City.

The three of them stood side by side, Zhang Erye and Li Mubai were completely dazed, while River City was in a state of nostalgia and despondency.

River City had the illusion that they were back on Earth, where they had lived for many years. The energy saving lamp's soft and bright light filled their vision with books and mountains, no, bamboo block mountains!

A 100 meter square hall, it was five meters tall, six rafters extended from the walls of the cave, protecting the huge glowing object in the middle, and all the light in the cave originated from here.

This was also the reason why Zhang Li and Li Jun were stunned.

"Night, night, night pearl." Li Mubai was very knowledgeable.

Stretching out his hand and waving it before the duo, he woke them up and walked towards the center of the city.

After passing by the mountain peak formed from bamboo slips, River City almost cried out in alarm. A simple wooden bed with a skeleton lying on it!

The skeleton was stretched out on the bed, its right hand holding onto its head while its left hand held a bamboo scroll. He seemed to have fallen asleep while reading.

The clothes on his body shone as bright as new and didn't seem to be damaged in the slightest.

In front of the wooden bed was a similarly simple and short one. On top of the bed was a completely opened bamboo scroll, as well as a small, exquisite carving knife. Beside the book, there was a crimson box. Nothing else.

There was no such thing as precious pearl or energy, no divine weapon or legendary wall carving to pass on the skills.

"When you're flipping through them, be careful not to damage the bamboo slips. I have a feeling that these bamboo slips are the real treasures." Zhang Li reminded the two who were rummaging around.

He moved closer and observed his brother Skeleton, who seemed to have died comfortably on the bed.

"Swish!" Golden Prefecture Fancy Chat! "Green book?" A cave! The otaku?! " Jiang Cheng, who was still in shock, had to exert himself to retrieve the book from his brother Skeleton.

"Golden lotuses, government officials, big tinkling, flowers." The first words made Jiang Cheng make a sure and wise move — he threw the book into the corner in disgust, checked his hands, and shuddered for no reason. Who the hell knows if this book will work the same way as AWei's computer.

His left hand naturally dropped down to his waist area after the book in his hand was stolen. Now, looking at his posture, wasn't that the King Kong from the tall building?

After a long while, Jiang Cheng finally came back to his senses.

In the end, he decided to look at the 'comments' on the table!

"I bought a watch last year, my old teacher, my Maria, my 100T."
