"Linggong Hall?!"
The moment I saw the huge coffin, gold and jade treasures.
Yang Fang's eyes suddenly widened and he couldn't help but exclaimed.
But the old foreigner next to him had his brows furrowed into the Chinese character "Sichuan" and was holding an umbrella with both hands, as if he was saying something.
“No, what are you muttering about?”
Seeing that his reaction was not quite right, Yang Fang turned around and reached out to pat his shoulder.
"It shouldn't be."
"How could this happen..."
The old foreigner seemed to have fallen into hysteria, his eyes were empty, and he kept mumbling as if he was in a daze.
“What not to do.”
"No, are you kidding?"
Seeing that his symptoms were even getting worse, Yang Fang ignored the surprise of discovering the Queen's Mausoleum and grabbed his arm with a solemn expression. At the same time, the whole The man walked up to the old foreigner calmly.
In case he suddenly goes off the rails.
"It should be a ghost cave."
"Ghost cave... Do you know the ghost cave?"
The old foreigner suddenly raised his head, his pupils were full of bloodshot eyes, and he grabbed Yang Fang's wrist hard, startling the latter. From that face, he actually saw a strange and...horror that he had never seen before. people.
“Ghost cave?”
I keenly caught the word in his words.
Yang Fang was startled and seemed to understand something, "Is it the bottomless cave in the corridor mural?"
"That's it."
"It should be behind the stone gate."
The old foreigner looked up into the abyss, with unwillingness in his eyes.
"If it's not there, it's not there. So what if you find it? Do you still have to go down and have a look?"
Yang Fang curled his lips.
He was not too surprised about the mysterious cave in the mural.
Even in my heart, I felt that it was just a set of words concocted by ancient Jingjue people in order to stabilize their political power and maintain their rule.
Liu Bang killed the white snake and rebelled, Cao Cao shot the dragon into the water at the age of ten, and Zhu Yuanzhang fell to the ground in October with the glow of the sky.
These are just the leftovers from the Han emperor’s fun.
He scoffed anyway.
No one really lives underground.
Isn't that a monster?
There is also the exquisite queen who wraps her face with a scarf from beginning to end. She may be ugly, but she is said to be very mysterious to the outside world.
So, now I see that the old foreigner is actually out of his mind because of that ghost cave.
Yang Fang is even more difficult to understand.
How could this kid fall for such an obvious scam when he seems to be shrewd and cautious on weekdays?
"Oh, it's not that simple."
The old foreigner shook his head and smiled, his expression full of sadness.
Their family has worked hard for thousands of years just to be able to enter the ghost cave and lift the ghost curse. Now they finally got here and opened the giant underground door at the top.
As a result... all I saw was a coffin.
How could he accept this?
Fortunately, he came down first. If the senior brother saw this scene, the old foreigner would not be able to imagine whether the senior brother could withstand such a heavy blow.
"No, what's wrong with you kid today?"
"You're so nagging."
Seeing that he was hesitant and vague about his words, Yang Fang frowned. It's even tighter. I really don't understand why his temperament changes drastically just after coming down.
"Just think I'm crazy."
The old foreigner shook his head.
He suddenly thought that the ancient city was so big that the ghost cave might not necessarily be in other places.
The vast yellow sand covers up too many things.
We survived the most difficult times back then, not to mention that now, not only compared with their ancestors, but also they themselves are completely different in the past few years.
“I don’t understand you kid.”
Seeing that his eyes gradually returned to calmness and no longer had the frightening feeling before, Yang Fang's anxious heart finally fell back into his stomach.
Although I still don’t understand his changes.
But at least people calmed down.
"Then what should we do now?"
Looking below, judging from the situation where the wind lantern fell before, the cliff below must be about ten meters deep.
The surrounding rock walls are steep and jagged.
In the middle, there is a stone mountain extending outwards, just like the platform they are on at this moment, where the wooden stone figures in the darkness are located.
If you go down.
With his skills, it’s not difficult.
But he was not sure whether the old foreigner would get sick again.
If he goes down and is left unattended, the consequences may be disastrous.
So, after hesitating for a moment, he still asked tentatively.
Who knew the old foreigner just glanced at him.
"What are you planning to do?"
"I..." Yang Fang hesitated, "Of course I will go up and notify shopkeeper Chen first."
"Okay, you go and notify me, I'll stay here."
The old foreigner nodded and said calmly.
It seems like he is just talking about an ordinary little thing.
But as he said these words, Yang Fang's head was shaking like a rattle, as if he understood everything.
No one will leave and no one will retreat.
The atmosphere was tense for a while.
"You kid...I promise you will never mess around."
Unable to bear the strange look in Yang Fang's eyes, the old foreigner spread his hands and promised.
"Why don't we go back together?"
Yang Fang made it clear that he didn't trust him.
Mainly, the scene just now was too scary.
If he really wanted to do it again, even if his heart was too big, he would still be unable to bear it.
Seeing him staring at him, the old foreigner had no choice but to agree. He had indeed stabilized his emotions, but according to Yangfang's character, he would not believe it even if he beat him to death.
It’s better to be simple.
Just...
Even he found it strange.
Even if I didn’t see the ghost cave behind the door, for me, it was not expected, but at least it was acceptable.
Why did I feel like I was out of control just now?
What I think in my heart and what I do on my body seems to be something pulling me to do it.
“Let’s go, what are you doing standing around?”
While he was hesitating, Yang Fang's urging came from behind him.
This kid looked at me as if he were a prisoner, even half a step behind. Apparently he was worried that he would change his mind midway, leave him behind, flee back to the platform, and jump into the cliff.
But don’t say it.
This idea just came up.
He couldn't help but feel a strong impulse in his heart.
Phew——
Sensing something was wrong, the old foreigner quickly took a few deep breaths, and there was a hint of invisible fear in his eyes when he looked at the darkness behind him.
"Hurry, shopkeeper Chen and the others will be impatient later."
Seeing that he was stunned and didn't move, Yang Fang couldn't help but speak again.
But this time, before he finished speaking, he saw the old foreigner striding towards the ramp.
Seeing this, Yang Fang was stunned for a moment, then quickly chased after him.
The moss-covered ground did not affect their steps at all.
It didn’t take much time.
The swaying firelight ahead came into view, and figures appeared in the opposite light and shadow.
“Back.”
"Finally we have waited."
"Is it the Queen's Spiritual Palace?"
Squeezing outside the opened stone door, the group of people were obviously waiting impatiently until they heard footsteps. came from the darkness, and excitement jumped on everyone's face.
The same is true for Partridge Whistle and Kunlun.
“How was it?”
When the two of them walked over the top of the slope and appeared behind the door, Partridge Whistle stared at his junior brother, with too many questions revealed in his dark and uncertain eyes.
It’s just...
The old foreigner avoided his sight.
‘Gudong——’
That’s just a moment.
Partridge Whistle understood everything.
Behind the stone gate is not a ghost cave. So, where is the ghost cave that the ancestors spied on...?
Yang Fang, who was full of joy, did not notice anything strange about him, and just explained quickly.
“It’s the Queen’s Spiritual Palace.”
"We saw a giant coffin at the foot of the cliff, and... gold, silver and jade articles all over the ground."
Giant coffin?
Gold and jade goods?
Hearing these two words, everyone in Xiling could not help but feel excited, and they exhaled one by one.
“So, those legends are not lies.”
"There is really gold and silver everywhere."
"Didn't we make a fortune this time?"
"Damn it, we can finally touch gold."
Their trip Their purpose was to fight for gold. Now that they finally saw a glimmer of light in the darkness, how could they not be inexplicably excited?
“Are you going down?”
Chen Yulou waved his hand to signal everyone to be silent.
In an instant, the surroundings fell into silence again. No one dared to speak, but the rapid breathing and even the beating from under the chest could not be suppressed at all.
"No, old...it was too deep down there. The old foreigner and I were weak, so we were worried about something happening, so we turned back first."
Yang Fang almost let it slip.
Fortunately, the response was timely, he quickly added.
"Since there is a coffin, it shouldn't be wrong."
Chen Yulou nodded.
In fact, he was more worried that the two of them would be affected, but now it seems that Yang Fang, who is armed with the magic whip, can suppress the demonic whisper of the flower of hell for the time being, but the old foreigner is in a state of confusion.
About the ghost flower, he had only seen it in writing.
Allowing the two of them to go and take care of each other also verified some of his guesses.
Taoist magic weapons can effectively restrain it.
But practitioners will also be pulled into the illusion if they are unprepared.
But...
Compared to ordinary people, they have no resistance.
This is much better.
"Then Shopkeeper Chen... would you like to send your brothers down to have a look?"
Yang Fang is obviously still thinking about opening the coffin.
There is a hint of expectation both inside and outside the words.
His thoughts were like a blank piece of paper in front of Chen Yulou, how could he not understand them?
“We’ll talk about it later.”
"Okay."
Yang Fang grinned.
As long as there is no refusal, there will be a chance to open the coffin.
Damn it, he wants to see if that Queen is a human or a ghost, or is it really a monster crawling out of an underground ghost hole.
It just so happens that the magic whip has been used for too long.
It's all going to rust.
After figuring out the situation behind the door, things will be much simpler next. The long team is like a fire dragon, passing through the stone door and heading straight into the depths of the ground.
But no one noticed.
Chen Yulou is among them.
I don’t know when an ancient talisman appeared in my palm.
The runes on the talisman are intertwined, like a subtle wisp of thunder.
It may not seem big, but it just covers the team.
He actually has a lot of magic weapons on his body, including dragon scale swords, sword-breaking stones, ancient thunder talismans, and even ghost-killing whips.
But when it comes to killing and power.
The Ancient Thunder Talisman is the well-deserved number one.
However, under his deliberate suppression, the aura emanating from the Thunder Talisman was less than 1%.
While it can isolate the influence of the smell of corpse-scented konjac, it will not disturb the remains of the snake god deep in the ghost cave.
From start to finish.
It was when I was fighting with the snake mother in the underground lake.
Chen Yulou never used all his strength.
That's why they ordered people to set up a Dragon Peeling Formation.
Otherwise, with his method, the Golden Core Realm would be unfolded without any concealment. Not to mention killing the dragon with one sword, but a mere black snake, even if it was a bit bigger, would not be able to withstand the sheathing for a hundred days. The majestic sword intention.
He is hiding his clumsiness.
It’s because he knows that the real mastermind is still hiding under the iceberg and has disappeared.
The fire dragon that snaked downwards quickly became straight.
The group of people looked around curiously with the torches in their hands. They felt that the stone platform they were on was indescribably primitive and mysterious, and the surrounding areas shrouded in darkness were endless.
It’s like plunging into an endless sea of ink.
"Shopkeeper Chen, look below."
Compared with before, Yang Fang didn't feel much difference, he just reminded Chen Yulou and others with a torch.
The old foreigner on the side clearly noticed something was wrong.
The invisible and strange feeling that came down before disappeared without a trace at this moment.
The whole person is as calm as ever.
There is no restlessness, no uneasiness, and no loss of heart and madness.
“Huo Zhezi.”
Chen Yulou said casually.
The boy on the side immediately took out several bamboo tubes with both ends sealed.
Obviously soaked in paraffin.
The bamboo tube has a faint luster.
This kind of cliff has a huge drop. No matter whether the lantern or the torch is thrown, it will definitely not be able to withstand the flowing wind and will most likely be extinguished before it hits the ground.
Huo Zhezi is different.
Not disturbed by the atmosphere.
“Throw a few to see what happens.”
According to his instructions, the man hesitated and quickly removed the cork without blowing it and threw it directly down.
See this.
Everyone leaned out on the stone platform.
His eyes followed the rays of fire and looked down.
In less than a moment, the stone statue in Yang Fang's mouth flashed in the firelight. When the fire sticks fell to the ground one after another, tiny flames rushed to Lao Gao.
Several firelights merged together.
The bottom of the cliff was immediately taken into consideration.
A huge coffin, two meters long, was placed horizontally on a piece of black mountain stone. There was a dim light on the coffin body, and it looked like neither gold nor wood. It was difficult to tell what material it was made of.
With the giant coffin as the center.
Countless pearls, jade, broken gold, silverware, and copper objects were piled randomly on the ground.
It's like a carpet of gold and jade.
Looking down, the bottom of the cliff is so precious that it reflects an intoxicating golden light.
Both Chen Yulou and Partridge Whistle couldn't help but feel a little amazed.
Even in the large tombs of princes of the Tang and Song Dynasties, where it was customary to have generous burials, it is difficult to see such a scene, and it can no longer be described as extravagant.
It seems that those golden and jade artifacts are just a pile of rubble.
The surrounding noise gradually became calm.
A group of bandits from the Xiling Mountains stared wide-eyed, and their minds seemed to sink into it.
How much money did he have to pay to be buried with him?
"Wait...Kunlun Sacred Tree?"
While everyone was intoxicated with the gold and silver weapons and couldn't help themselves, Partridge Whistle finally noticed something was wrong.
More than ten steps away from the coffin.
Suddenly an ancient tree grew out of a crack in the cliff.
It was clearly the sacred trees they had seen by the underground lake before.
But the difference is that this ancient tree is astonishingly big. It was cut off head-on. It is more than two meters in diameter at least. More than ten iron chains are embedded around it and anchored into the stone beams of the surrounding cliffs.
It seems to be to lock it up.
But Partridge Whistle was looking at more than just the ancient tree.
But on the cross section of the ancient tree, there is a strange flower that is transparent and emerald green, with a large blood-colored leaf on each side.
Opening petals.
Toward the dome.
It was like...opening his mouth and staring at something.
“What the hell is that?”
“Even the sacred tree cannot survive, but there are still green leaves?” (End of this chapter)
