Chapter 8: Dan Candle
The night is dark, and the woods of Qishan make people feel a sense of tension that cannot breathe, and this oppression is like being in the water, sinking deeper and deeper into the water, unable to break free from it. From time to time, the call of owls can be heard in the woods, and the sound of nocturnal animals shuttling through the grass is terrifying. Further inside, there are no more ambushed zombies and sigil traps, as this is considered a place where no one has gone - a cliff.
The road that Jin Shijie pointed out was on a steep cliff. Musou and Nameless are both Edgeworth's flights, and the two step on their respective swords and fly on the edge of a cliff. Others were climbing on the cliff, in order to take care of Jin Shijie, Jin Meng carried Jin Shijie on his back and walked on the cliff, and Yan Qinghou walked last. When climbing, a bright moon has already hung its head high, and the pitch-black cliff has been photographed into a black and white silent film. The bird passed through the gap and saw a group of people climbing on the cliff, and then saw two people flying in the air, and flew away in fright. After a while, everyone came to the middle of the cliff, and there was a shallow cave in the middle of the cliff, but it was only two or three meters deep. There is also a bird's nest in the cave, but there are neither birds nor eggs in it. No one thought that there would be anything earth-shattering hidden here, because most people don't come here.
Jin Shijie got off Jin Meng's back and walked to the wall in the cave. The moonlight could not shine on the cave, so Cao Li took out a lantern from the backpack behind him and lit the wall for Jin Shijie. This wall looks unremarkable, but there is something hidden in it, and only the Qi royal family can know about it. Jin Shijie groped for the wall and found a stone block on the wall that could move. After removing the stone, a sigil was revealed on the wall. Although Wushuang and Nameless are both sword masters, they still know something about sigils, but none of them have ever seen this kind of sigil. And Huang Qiying, who is a talisman master, has never heard of the sigil of this pattern, and has never seen it in any books. After Jin Shijie found the rune, he was about to take off his clothes, and the person on the side reached out to hold his clothes, and after Jin Shijie took off his coat, he revealed a rune on his abdomen. Everyone didn't know that the rune on Jin Shijie's abdomen was the final sigil, and they didn't know that there was a sigil hidden under this final sigil. The sigil on Jin Shijie's abdomen began to glow, and the light guided the sigil on the wall, and after the light ended, the sigil on the wall began to change. Sigils filled the entire wall, and right before everyone's eyes, a stone wall turned into a stone door. Then the sides of the stone door slowly opened, and there was unfathomable darkness inside.
"No wonder no one knows about this place, it turns out that the Qi royal family has always had such esoteric methods. Who would have thought that the wealth of the rich country would be in a deep mountain that no one cared about, and no one could enter without that sigil, right?" Nameless waved his Yilong sword and commanded into the darkness. As soon as the Yilong Sword entered the darkness, it let out a dragon groan, and was finally shocked back. Then came a gust of wind from the cave, mixed with a heavy smell of metal and the pain of cutting your face.
"Don't act rashly anymore, without my sigil, anyone who enters will be shattered, just now it should be just a warning, then you follow me, as long as there is my sigil, at least your life is worry-free." ”
Jin Shijie entered the cave with his chest bare, Cao Li followed behind him with a lamp, and handed a lamp to Yan Qinghou in the last position, one after the other, and a row of people entered the cave.
The entrance to the cave was narrow enough for one person at first, and then slowly began to grow larger. When Cao Li raised the lamp and looked up, he suddenly found that the top of his head was already dozens of meters high from him. It seems that the interior of the mountain is hollow, and this magical natural environment is like a place of shelter for a behemoth. The light is so faint that you can only see a few meters in front of you. Jin Shijie was walking, and suddenly he seemed to step on something under his feet. When I looked down, it was a piece of gold. Cao Li found a fire trough on the wall that could be lit, and after lighting the flame of the lantern, the entire cave was randomly lit, and the situation in the cave was in full view. After the light appeared, everyone had to close their eyes because of the sudden light. When he opened his eyes, he was shocked by the sight in front of him: a body made of gold in front of him looked like a dragon with a hollow body, only the shell was missing, and his eyes moved to the dragon's head, and found that there was no head. Could it be that this is the golden dragon? Or is the golden dragon just an empty shell? Jin Shijie explained to everyone that this is the shell left by the golden dragon's molting. The shell he left behind was also made of gold, so Qi Guo would have such a strong capital. Since this is not a golden dragon, where is the real dragon?
The crowd continued to walk inside, and they saw a hill made of gold, which was shining in front of everyone's eyes. The golden gold is like a dazzling pearl under the illumination of the firelight, which makes people not sigh. No one can earn the tip of the iceberg here if they work hard all their lives. Yan Qinghou extinguished the lantern in his hand and wandered in front of the golden mountain. These gold, silver and jewels did not attract him, his will would not be drawn up by these things outside the body that were attached to the world, his mind was only righteousness, and human freedom. He looked down at a gold coin on the ground, and Huang Qiying on the side laughed at him, saying that a person of his integrity would also be greedy for wealth. Yan ignored him, and just as he looked down at the gold coin, he suddenly saw the gold coin move. Then he stared at the gold coin, trying to see if he had just hallucinated, but not only the gold coin, but also the surrounding gold nuggets shook with it, as if an earthquake was coming. At this time, a powerful aura came out of the gap in the gold nugget, and Ye Yan felt that the situation was not right, and immediately got up. Then the gold nuggets on top of the mountain began to roll down, and it seemed as if a sleeping monster was about to wake up from it. Beneath the tumbling gold nuggets, a huge eye suddenly appeared, glaring angrily at everyone under the gold mountain. After Jin Shijie saw that eye, he reminded everyone to hide behind him, and after everyone stood behind him, Jin Shijie showed the sigil on his abdomen, saluted the monster in the golden mountain, and said respectfully: "I disturbed Lord Danzhu, please forgive me." ”
The divine dragon in the golden mountain didn't seem to be moved by Jin Shijie's words, and suddenly spewed out a golden light from the golden mountain, and the light went straight towards Jin Shijie and his party. The Golden Six Saints wanted to cover Jin Shijie, but he was unmoved, and the sigil on his abdomen burst out again, spewing out a huge qi that collided with the golden light head-on. The two golden rays collided with each other, and finally canceled them out and disappeared together. After the light disappeared, the sigil on Jin Shijie's abdomen also dimmed. After seeing the sigil on Jin Shijie's abdomen, Dan Zhu seemed to understand the identity of the other party, and slowly poked his head out of the golden mountain. As if the firelight was attracted by the dragon qi, the flames stretched out to the golden mountain, and under the watchful eyes of everyone, the appearance of the golden dragon pill candle finally appeared in front of everyone. Like the shell left by the molting of the dragon before, Dan Candle is also a golden dragon with a head like a metal puppet, only the eyes look like a life. The dragon's whiskers also droop like gold bars, colliding with each other to make a metallic crashing sound. Dan Candle's every move was accompanied by the sound of metal twisting.
Dan Zhu looked at Jin Shijie and said, "Is it the descendant of the kid surnamed Jin?"
"Exactly, I am the tenth generation descendant of the Jin family of Qi Guo, and I ask for forgiveness for disturbing Lord Danzhu's rest. ”
"What's the matter, didn't you take a few hundred stones of gold from me last time, and you ran out so quickly?"
"It's because we're incompetent, and although we have a lot of money, we don't use it on the blade, and the country has been taken away by the demons. ”
"What? You said the demons, the demons have not appeared for a hundred years, and they have been staying in the abyss of the demon world, why did they suddenly appear?"
"This king doesn't know why the demon clan suddenly appeared on the mainland, only knows that the demon clan that appeared this time is like a bamboo, and as soon as he makes a move, he will take down Jiang and Qi, and he will march to the east road recently, I heard that the ocean god dragon shark has been killed, and the mountain dragon cangzai that exists in Longxi Mountain has also been beheaded, and the demons have been slaughtering the dragon all the way, and they are deliberately taking revenge on the dragon clan and the god clan. ”
"What! You said that the Raid and the Shark were ...... There is such a thing, but in a hundred years, such a powerful figure has appeared in the demon world...... This is impossible, the demon king who was known as the strongest in Yan Tiexin back then also had nothing to do with us, and returned with a feather, how could it only take a hundred years to become so powerful?"
"Lord Hui Danzhu, the new demon is not called Yan Tiexin, but Yan Che. ”
"It's not Yan Tiexin, but it's also surnamed Yan, and it seems that he is Yan Tiexin's son. I can't imagine that his son has such a strong strength, could it be that his next target is me?"
"It's very likely, that's why I'm here to report to you, hoping that you can take the initiative to subdue the demons. Behind me are two people from the Dragon Guardian Clan, both of whom were humans who were formerly guardian dragons, and who served by the Dragons until the death of Lord Kuado, so let them tell me the details. ”
Nameless and Wushuang were about to step forward, but Dan Candle glanced at the two of them and immediately said, "No need, I don't need humans. ”
Nameless and Wushuang stood in place, it seems that this golden dragon is not an object that can be communicated with words, the dragon guard clan is a race sandwiched between humans and gods without status, and the two of them are also sullen in their hearts, but they don't dare to let it go yet.
"You said that the demons came at me, and that you came to tell me for my sake? You yourself failed and wanted to come to me to find a safe haven, right? I hate humans the most, and I hate the dragon guards. The guys of the shark and the cangzai actually wanted to survive with humans, and they all forgot what the nature of the dragon clan should be. If it weren't for that sigil on you, I would have killed you a long time ago. I'm afraid that it is you humans who let Cang Zheng and the sharks neglect to take precautions, so that the demons can take advantage of it. Take advantage of the fact that I am not angry, get out of here quickly, and take the gold myself, and do not need to mention anything else. Otherwise, I will take back the sigil I left you in the first place. After Dan Zhu finished speaking, he buried his head in the golden mountain again.
It seems that Dan Candle seems to be unmoved by the appearance of the demons and the death of the two dragons, thinking that it is safe enough in this deep mountain. He was lazy by nature and liked to sleep, especially in gold. As long as the demon didn't take the initiative to come to him, he didn't bother to move, in his eyes, the demon was just lucky, plus the cangzag and the shark's carelessness to have such a situation, and it was impossible for humans to use him. As a doppelganger of the Gonggong Yuanshen, he has been fighting with the demons for thousands of years, and he has long been tired.
"This, how is this good?" Jin Shijie turned back to face everyone, he was also helpless against Dan Candle's attitude. At this time, Nameless stepped forward and said, "Isn't this the reason why we want to follow? Since he is not willing to take the initiative to go out of the mountain, then the two of us will ask him to go out of the mountain." ”
After saying that, the swords behind Musou and Nameless began to fly. The peerless Xuanyuan sword was one hundred and two colors, and after flying into the air, it split into two, and pierced into the golden mountain together with the nameless Yilong sword. Then, the mountain shook, like a volcanic eruption, and countless gold nuggets erupted from the top of the mountain and fell to the ground. Dan Zhu stretched out his head angrily from the golden mountain, half of his body was exposed, his claws stepped on the golden mountain, and said to the two people who made the move: "You are killing yourself!"
