Chapter 18 Black Lotus Messenger
Return to the yard where you live.
Lin Shan couldn't wait to open the information on Yelang's ancient tomb, and the records given by Nightingale were indeed detailed.
It records that thousands of years ago, the ancient country of Yelang was destroyed overnight by unknown forces, with blood flowing thousands of miles away and no grass growing. Except for the Yelang people from foreign lands, all the local people were slaughtered.
Later, the Yelang people returned to their hometown and built the Yelang Ancient Tomb, and the Yelang Ancient Kingdom gradually disappeared in the long river of history.
A month ago, there were three waves of unknown forces that entered the ancient tomb. The first wave was ordinary people, the second wave was acquired warriors, and the third wave was even led by first-class experts.
But all three waves of people fell, and no one escaped.
Lin Shan took a deep breath when he saw this. All the first-rate masters died inside!
He had heard from Wu Yuanwai's younger brother before that he thought the zombies in the tomb were similar to those in the movies of previous lives, the kind of man-made virus that mutated and was highly contagious. Ordinary people couldn't defeat it, so warriors couldn't defeat it?
But now it is clearly recorded in the data that none of the first-class masters came out alive. Now Lin Shan was really frightened.
There is more information at the back of the information given by Nightingale. After all, it is an ancient killer organization. Nightingale's intelligence officers also suspected that a corpse had mutated in the tomb, and specially prepared some records about the corpse for the killer.
"Seven hundred years ago, an earthquake occurred in Longnan, and green-haired corpses appeared in the mountains. Local villagers killed them with shovels."
"Five hundred years ago, there was a flood in Weinan, and corpses appeared in the Yellow River. Fishermen were freed from their fishing nets, and then tied with iron nets and killed with sticks."
"Two hundred and eighty years ago, there was a severe drought in Jingxi for three years. Drought corpses were found in the cracked ground of Akita. They killed dozens of villagers. None of the local heroes could restrain them. Later, they asked innate masters to kill them."
"One hundred and twenty years ago, an ancient tomb opened in Zangge, and dozens of copper-clad iron corpses escaped. The Nanman King mobilized tens of thousands of troops to suppress it, and more than half of the army was killed or injured."
……
Lin Shan frowned after reading it and was even more frightened. Ordinary zombie villagers here can be killed easily, but the more powerful zombies have copper skin and iron bones, which are invulnerable. If an army suppresses them, more than half of them will be killed or injured!
With further understanding, zombies escaped from the ancient tombs in Zangqi County a hundred years ago, and now zombies also appear in the Yelang Ancient Tombs, and everyone is the corpse in the tomb.
This can't be the same thing!
The more Lin Shan thought about it, the more he felt that it had a lot to do with it. Otherwise, why would a top-notch expert disappear without even a splash of water when he entered?
calm!
Lin Shan forced himself to calm down and warned himself secretly.
"I just go to the secret passage of the ancient tomb to pick up the funerary objects left by the tomb robbers, and then leave after picking them up halfway. I will never go deep into the secret room or disturb the ancient corpses in the tomb. There will also be an explanation for the Nightingale mission by then, maybe Gu Yun There are gains too.”
"And once there is ancient charm, strength and financial resources, there will be hope for the Admiralty."
"Once the golden bell is obtained, the ancient charm will skyrocket, and it will skyrocket from then on."
Lin Shan's eyes glowed with a different look. He was calculating secretly. The more he thought about it, the more he felt that this trip was not lifeless. As long as you are careful, there is still a certain chance of success.
Wealth is sought in danger, and it’s done!
"Without further delay, let's set off immediately."
……
Three days later, Lin Shan arrived at Taoyuan Village, three hundred miles away from the city. In front of him was the endless mountain, Yelang Mountain.
Taoyuan Village is at the foot of Yelang Mountain, surrounded by mountains and rivers, giving it a picture of a paradise.
It was still bright when Lin Shan entered the village. Cottages were lined up on both sides of the bluestone street, and there were blacksmith shops and medicine halls. It was the time when the farmers were returning from the fields, and smoke was curling from the kitchens of each house.
Lin Shan went from door to door asking if he could stay, but unexpectedly he encountered obstacles one after another.
The reason was that an ancient tomb suddenly appeared in the Yelang Mountain next door, and a large number of tomb robbers passed by the village. The villagers were quite superstitious and thought that it was these outsiders who dug up the ancient tombs and disturbed the gods in the mountain, so they punished the tomb robbers one after another.
So they don't want to accept him.
With no other choice, Lin Shan had no choice but to use his ancestral trick "money power".
The next family immediately welcomed Lin Shan in with a smile. This trick has proven to be effective no matter what world it is.
It’s not that I betrayed everyone, it’s that he gave too much!
……
At night, after dinner, Lin Shan stood in the rural compound and counted the sky. I accidentally saw a black lotus Buddha statue in a small room next to the yard of this house!
He immediately remembered the antique street. The stall owner told him that there were many black lotus Buddha statues in Taoyuan Village.
Walking into the house, there is not much space inside. There are only futons, desks, Buddha statues, candles, and the incense supply seems to have been discontinued long ago.
He stepped forward and touched the one-foot-sized Buddha statue. There was no ancient charm and nothing beyond his expectation. After all, the Buddha statues collected by the stall owner have no ancient charm, and they all appear to be fakes.
I turned around and saw the owner of the house passing by. I quickly stopped him and asked, "My father-in-law, is this the one you enshrine in your home?" After saying this, he pointed to the black lotus Buddha statue.
"Oh, you are talking about the Black Lotus Sect. That is the statue of the Dharma Protector of the Black Lotus Sect. Most people in the village believe in him. I am a shallow believer, so I just support him for fun."
Lin Shan: "."
Are the old people in the village so open-minded and free now? Maybe this old man is the only outlier in the village? Did you happen to get hit by me?
But when it comes to Gu Yun, Lin Shan still shamelessly pesters his father-in-law: "Does every household in our village have this Buddha statue? How long have they been worshiping it?"
Old Liu Tou replied casually, "Almost every household provides it. It should have started hundreds of years ago."
Lin Shan's heart moved, wouldn't it be that some people's homes have black lotus Buddha statues that have been handed down for hundreds of years?
"But every twenty years, a Black Lotus envoy will come down from Yelang Mountain and take away the Buddha statues worshiped by everyone. At the same time, he will give a new one to every household. Everyone is used to it."
< br>
Damn it!
Lin Shan was so angry that he was shaking all over! Someone actually got there first?
God’s Black Lotus Messenger, I am at odds with you!
Old Liu Tou looked at the twitching young man in front of him inexplicably, shook his head and went back to the house.
"Black Lotus Sect, Black Lotus Messenger."
Lin Shan looked at Yelang Mountain in the distance, and there was another clue that seemed to be of ancient charm. It seemed that he had to go.
……
It's midnight, the moon and stars are sparse.
Lin Shan was fully armed, with a ring-headed sword on his back, a newly bought dagger hanging on his waist, sleeve arrows hidden in his sleeves, and a fire fold, sulfur, hooks, and a gourd of black dog blood in his bag.
He was holding a cage in his hand, and in it was a rooster just bought from the village.
There are many dangers in the tomb passage, so living creatures are naturally needed to explore the way. The rooster was tied up with strips of cloth, and its iron mouth was also wrapped in a strip of cloth. It was shivering in the cage!
In order to complete his victory in one battle, Lin Shan almost lost all his savings!
"Hope everything goes well."
……
Taking advantage of the dusk, Lin Shan stepped into Yelang Mountain.
The mountain road is rugged, but the information provided by Nightingale naturally includes a map, and Yelang's ancient tomb is halfway up the mountain on the back.
Along the way, he was careful to avoid wild animal excrement. According to the map, Lin Shan climbed over the top of the mountain without any danger.
It was already five o'clock in the morning, and demons were dancing wildly in the mountains and forests, and wolves howling and ghosts kept shouting.
Lin Shan's sharp weapon was close to him, but he remained indifferent. Standing on the mountain to check the direction, I walked all the way to the mountainside and stopped in front of a cave.
……
"Is this the hole dug by those five young men outside Yuan Wu?"
Lin Shan looked at the cave that was two people high in front of him. If it hadn't been marked on the map, he would have doubted whether it was the lair of some ferocious beast!
No wonder he was able to give away giant Buddha statues and golden bells. It seems a pity that such talents cannot be used by me.
After sighing, Lin Shan took a deep breath, opened the fire seal, and blew hard!
Slowly enter the cave
