Chapter 218 The Ancient Village at the Bottom of the Lake

"Okay, let's just go here. Yuncai, Uncle Agui, we will go down for about a minute later. If we want to come up, we will pull the rope a few times, and you will pull us up quickly." The fat man said.

Agui and Yuncai both nodded. Such things must be made in advance, otherwise, they will be pulled up when they don’t want to come up later, or they won’t help but not when they want to come up, that would be troublesome.

Seeing that they had already discussed it, Chen Hao jumped into the water with a pounce, without even holding a stone, and swam to the bottom of the lake like a fish at an extremely fast speed.

"Wait for us!"

Seeing this, Fatty and others sighed, then hugged Shi Tou and jumped into the lake.

Under the water, Chen Hao used his limbs and swam to the bottom of the lake at an extremely fast speed. Soon he dived to more than 30 meters, while Fatty and others were still in the shallow water layer of 5-6 meters.

Chen Hao had a great view under the water. When he dived to more than 40 meters deep, he indeed found a strange ancient village at the bottom of the lake!

The outer periphery of the ancient village was surrounded by a fence wall, and a large number of houses and buildings inside had collapsed, but the ancient building in the middle still stood at the bottom of the lake.

The shape of the ancient building is obviously Han style, and it is tall and luxurious. Compared with the low Miao houses around it, it feels like a crane stands out.

He quickly swam towards the ancient building and found that there were a large amount of water plants and algae attached to the ancient building, which made the entire drum tower look beyond recognition.

However, looking at the decayed wood and the flat stones built, we can see that the workmanship and materials of this ancient building are very particular. Even though it has been sinking to the bottom of the lake for many years, it still maintains the outline at that time.

Without checking, he knew that this ancient building was called the Zhang Family Ancient Building. Of course, it was not the ancient building used to bury the Zhang family, but was built by a man named Zhang in the center of the Miao village.

The purpose of Zhang's family building this ancient building was also very clear. It was to dig underground jade ore and build a building on the ground. It could also be mined underground jade ore for a long time and hiddenly.

After all, the value of jade ore is too great. If it were mined, I would not know how many guns and horses I could buy at that time, and would not be mined in secret. If other warlords learned about it, they would definitely send troops to seize it.

Moreover, based on the plot in the original work, he felt that the people who built this ancient village were probably the Zhang family and the local Miao King jointly implemented it.

Because this is the territory of the Miao village people, it is impossible for the Miao village people to look at a foreigner who built such a luxurious ancient building in the center of their village.

At this moment, the fat man and the others also sank one after another. Chen Hao quickly gestured to them and signaled them to come over.

The fat man and the others quickly untied the stones, swam towards Chen Hao, and carefully looked at the ancient house.

When the few of them saw this ancient village, which was almost exactly the same as the Banai Village, they were all shocked, and kept spitting out bubbles from their mouths, widened their eyes, and looked at the ancient village at the bottom of the lake incredibly.

The fat man had sharp eyes. He pointed to the gate of the ancient building and signaled everyone to swim over.

Everyone looked along the direction of his finger and found that there was a couplet carved at the gate of the ancient building. The font was vigorous and powerful, and it looked very mediocre and elegant like flowing clouds. At first glance, it was written by the kind of literati who had been studying calligraphy all year round.

Chen Hao quickly swam over there, wiped off the attachment on it, looked carefully at the couplet, and saw that it was carved on it: Yan Ran had already played Kai high, and he still thought of Qu Fu and chanted a poem.

The couplet is very ordinary, but it shows the identity of the person who built this ancient house, which shows that this person has military merits, at least the bureaucratic class.

The fat man and the others also swam over, looked at the couplet, and looked at each other.

Then Wu Xie made a gesture, roughly speaking, the person in this ancient house was actually the surname Zhang, and he was a foreign bureaucratic class. How could he build a house in the Miao village?

Then, Wu Xie pointed at the young man and kept making gestures, roughly asking, is this your ancestor's old house?

Because Men Youping's surname is Zhang, and he used to live in Banai, he couldn't help but think of whether the young man had any contact with the owner of this ancient building.

The young man shook his head in confusion, saying that he didn't know that he had lost his memory now. Even if the ancient building was really built by his ancestors, he might not remember it.

At this time, it was already a minute before they came down, and Wu Xie could not hold it in. He quickly gestured to everyone, meaning I was going up.

The fat man and the young man are better, and it seems that they can hold it in for a while.

Seeing that Wu Xie wanted to go up, Chen Hao came to him, dragged his legs and pushed it upwards.

While swimming upstream, Wu Xie pulled the rope a few times. The people above clearly sensed the movement below and pulled the rope up hard. Wu Xie swam quickly to the water surface.

Chen Hao gestured to the fat man and the others again, meaning that we will go in and take a look.

Both of them nodded. Chen Hao walked in front to lead the way, pushed open the decaying wooden door. There was a very spacious yard with a square-shaped screen wall in the middle.

There are many cloud-patterned birds and beasts that symbolize good fortune, which look very simple and elegant.

There is a screen wall in the small yard, which usually has status and status. At least the bureaucratic people are qualified to do this. If civilians do this, they will be guilty of usurpation.

Seeing this, everyone immediately realized that the owner of this ancient house was definitely a bureaucratic class. No wonder he could build such a powerful ancient building in the central area of ​​the Miao village.

Chen Hao couldn't help but wonder, was the person who built this ancient building Lord Zhang Dafo?

At that time, Lord Zhang Dafo also belonged to a prince and was the governor of a certain area. He also had thousands of troops under his command. He built such an ancient house with his status and status, which was of strength and qualification.

The original work did not give an answer, so he could only infer that because Lao Jiumen organized a funeral team to enter the Zhang family’s ancient building, with the purpose of transporting a coffin into the ancient building, so he thought of this.

Everyone did not stop too much. When they walked through the screen wall, they saw the U-shaped houses lined up behind them. The doors and windows were carved. The vermilion paint on them was basically peeling off, and a large amount of water plants were attached.

In the center is a very spacious living room, with the doors and windows inside almost decayed, and are covered with attachments, some chairs, guest tables, and other furniture.
