Chapter 1516: Omen of Great Murder
"This proposal is good!" The little princess just thought about it for a while, then nodded and agreed to Lin Tian's idea, anyway, there are so many people around her, and they are in the inner courtyard of the palace, even if someone has suspicions, it is impossible to get to the bottom of it, and they don't dare to do it if they have ten guts, otherwise, once she retaliates, who can bear it?
The next thing is naturally very smooth, with the little princess's jade card in hand, who dares to stop it? The mineral director is even more enthusiastic, welcoming Lin Tian and the little princess in, after a good meal of wine and food, he asked the reason, and learned that Lin Tian wanted to enter the Taigu Immortal Mine to explore the secret, and immediately showed embarrassment between his eyebrows.
"I don't know if I'm in trouble?" Lin Tian frowned, it stands to reason that there is a little princess here, and there should be no big problem if you want to go in, what is going on with this principal, why is he refusing, and looking at his appearance, it is not that he is embarrassed for him and the little princess, but that something really happened.
"Exactly. The principal nodded, with a wry smile on his face, if it was usual, he would have gone in, anyway, the other party should know what it means to retreat in the face of difficulties, but just when they entered the Taigu Immortal Mine, a demonic thing happened to happen, if they were allowed to enter at this time, what would happen unknown......
"Can you take us over to have a look?" Lin Tian's eyes lit up, this is much more interesting, naturally he wants to go and see, when he comes to this place, he has to follow the local customs, Lin Tian is not like these people, he knows the horror here, so he is very interested in this so-called ominous, and wants to see with his own eyes what the evil thing is.
In front of the mine where the accident occurred, there were fifty or sixty dead bodies everywhere, all of them with gray faces and round eyes, and the experienced quarrymen, all of whom did not change their color, walked around from a distance, and no one dared to step forward, in front of this mine, there was a panic, everyone retreated, and most of them trembled, like frightened rabbits.
An old man who has been quarrying here for eight or nine years, he is an old man who works in this mine, since entering this place, it is difficult to see the light of day, he is forcibly enslaved, it is impossible to leave, once he has an idea, he will be killed, a trace of worry flashed in his eyes: "I have a hunch that this demon may be very unusual. ”
"I don't think I'm going to dig up anything alive, right?" In front of the mine, there were a lot of people gathered, including mine slaves, and some big people belonging to the major forces, all gathered in this place, one of the middle-aged people said this, and the others heard this, all of them changed color, if this is the case, it must be a great omen.
"I'm going to catch it and see what it is. A middle-aged man opened his mouth and spit out a small silver bottle the length of his thumb, turned into a silver light, flew forward, emitted a soft halo, and began to absorb the power of demons, something surprising happened, a wisp of dark power just submerged, the silver bottle cracked, dimmed, and fell to the ground.
"The magic weapon sacrificed by the Divine Infant Monk can't stop a wisp of demonic power, what is it?" Everyone was taken aback, several middle-aged men showed a solemn look, this time it was a little extraordinary, they had no bottom in their hearts, and it took a full hour for the gray mist to completely dissipate and disappear into the heavens and the earth, and soon after, a random grass chicken was thrown into the mine, constantly chirping, and after a long time, several middle-aged monks breathed a sigh of relief.
"It seems that it is just a breath of evil, not a ghost mine. Several middle-aged monks walked forward, more than a dozen young disciples followed, and Lin Tian was also in this column, they stood at the mouth of the well, watched each corpse, and then looked down for a while: "These corpses are all carried away, find a waste mine and bury them." ”
All the quarrymen retreated together, no one wanted to touch those who died inexplicably, the middle-aged monk saw this, frowned, he was very dissatisfied with the behavior of these people, they were just mine slaves, and they dared to refuse their orders, was this looking for ideas, but he still comforted: "The evil spirit has dissipated, there will be no danger!"
"Why don't you empty the corpses inside first, and then we'll go down ......" a middle-aged monk suggested, and glanced at the quarrymen around him, and the people around him were suddenly frightened and retreated, this place was too terrifying, and no one refused to go down: "What are you afraid of, that grass chicken is safe, it means that the inside is safe, you can rest assured!"
When Lin Tian heard him say this, he wanted to spit out his face, if he was not afraid of death, why didn't he go in? But he asked the quarryman to explore the way first, this kind of behavior is the most unreliable, a typical dead Taoist friend is not dead and poor, but this is understandable, who let these mine slaves enter this place, doomed to life and death without self-control, and has since been reduced to slavery.
The mine was dim, the torches were difficult to fully illuminate, and there were corpses on the ground, horizontal and vertical, some timid quarrymen saw this scene, their bodies immediately trembled, and in front of them, a little light came, a spirit stone the size of a human head flickered and shone, embedded in the earth and stone, and an old monk who looked to be more than half a hundred years old was lying there upright, and he had been out of breath for a long time.
There is a claw inside the spirit stone the size of a human head, which is similar to the palm of a human hand, but there are a lot of hairs, up to an inch, even the palm is no exception, a little hideous, and what is even more surprising is that this spirit stone has faint signs of being broken by this claw, this scene made Lin Tian hiss coldly: "This is at least a creature from ancient times......
This was originally a boulder, which was chiseled by the quarryman, and only then did this spirit stone appear, there were bone veins in the stone layer, which was connected to this source, Lin Tian had to be shocked, this should be a fossil, only the palm of the hand was preserved by the source, intact, and the other parts became stone bones, this should be a humanoid creature, but a humanoid creature with bat wings and a feather dial is definitely not a human.
When digging through the boulder, a corner of this spirit stone was broken, and a little flesh and blood in the palm of that hand was exposed to the air and dried up, and the gray mist was produced in this way: "What kind of terrifying creature is this, after a little flesh and blood is exposed in the air and rots, it has such a terrifying power, just a wisp of gray mist can shatter the magic weapon of the monk of the Divine Infant Realm, it is really unimaginable!" Lin Tian was shocked in his heart.
The only thing that makes people happy is that this spirit stone is very unusual, it is brilliant, it gathers the essence of heaven and earth on its own, and the damaged place has been blocked by Guanghua, at this time, more people from above have also come in, they have a keen sense of spirit, they perceive that there is no danger below, and they are no longer afraid, and several middle-aged monks exclaimed on the spot: "This is ...... A flesh-and-blood claw!"
"A few years ago, I dug up a severed arm, which was also sealed in the source, and was sent back to the imperial court. "These monks carefully cleaned the stone and moved the spirit stone to the ground along with the boulder, this is definitely a treasure, and they have done a great job.
The elders of the Great Shang Imperial Court here were alarmed, and came here in person, carefully observing the palm of the hand, and repeatedly checking the humanoid traces on the boulder.
"It's incredible!" he seemed surprised
"What kind of creature is this?" Lin Tian asked cautiously.
"Ancient fierce bird ......" The elder only said two words, and then suddenly stopped speaking.
Obviously, the elder's heart was very uneasy, and it took a long time for him to breathe a sigh of relief, and then with a wave of his robe's sleeves, he put away the spirit stone with a large human head and the boulder.
"You continue to dig here, once you make a new discovery, report it to me immediately, this is a big matter, I will give you a great credit, but if you don't report it, you will definitely be involved in the nine clans. He looked solemn, and then disappeared in a blink of an eye.
"Why didn't the elder elaborate, what exactly is that creature? At the very least, it is a creature from before the primeval times, it seems to be extremely terrifying and powerful, was we human beings born at that time, and what status are we in?" This was the doubt of those quarrymen, and it was also the question in Lin Tian's heart, he wanted to know the answer, but unfortunately it was not enough.
"Don't say it, the Ancient Immortal Mine is a forbidden place, and you can't talk nonsense in the Spirit Stone Mining Area. "The Ancient Immortal Mine, in the center of this area, is surrounded by the spirit stone area of the Great Dao System, no one dares to explore, it is an ominous place, because it happened ominously, so Lin Tian has not been able to enter it, and he has stayed outside.
For several days in a row, seven or eight waste wells were dug in a row, and no spirit stones were dug out at all, Lin Tian sighed secretly, he still wanted to go in early, and the other quarrymen were happy, because there was no bad luck in the past few days, and the ghost mine was not dug out, just when people thought that the turmoil had passed, on the seventh day, there was a sudden scream from under a mine, as if it didn't want to happen.
"What's going on?" The monk of the Imperial Court of Dashang asked on the ground, in the past few days, they have not left an inch, they have been in this mining area, the task assigned by the elder of the Imperial Court, they dare not be careless, they thought it had passed, but they did not expect it to happen again. "Bones, a lot of bones found!" the people below were terrified.
In this mining area, after the other people in the mine learned the news, they all rushed out and began to rush into the distance, quarrymen often have to face evil things, as soon as there is a wind and grass, they will protect themselves at the first time, the mining area is in chaos, Lin Tian finally understands, why few quarrymen can live for ten years, three days and two ends of evil, even monks can not live for ten years.
"What's going on, strange things don't usually happen once a year, why are there so many days these days?" Several experienced quarrying old men, all of them had a bad premonition: "I think the last time I dug out that claw, it was not the end, but just the beginning, most of this mining area is a ghost mine, and there will be a big demon." ”
"I also have this hunch that something big is going to happen. ”
"It is said that the Taichu Immortal Mine has not been quiet for a year, and I am afraid that this is a harbinger of great evil. ”
