Chapter 278: Shennong's Last Words and the Coffin Behind the Dragon Gate
In the cold and damp 'Nine Shadows' cave, Li Xuan and the others were stunned when they faced the gate that seemed to be embedded in the stone wall... When they got closer and looked at the stone gate for the first time, the divine beast 'dragon' on the stone gate seemed to really open its eyes and look at them, which was terrifying...
"Let's ask Fu Hua..."Himeko frowned and looked at Shimen and said to Bronya, who was holding a tablet communicator, this kind of unknown place is better not to act rashly... It feels wicked...
"Major Himeko, what's wrong?" the light particles reassembled on the tablet communicator, quickly condensing the appearance of Fu Hua guarding the entrance of the cave, Fu Hua pushed his glasses and asked puzzled. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info I didn't expect everyone to be in trouble so soon....
"That's how we came across a stone door with a dragon painted on it... How do we get in the door?" Himeko said shortly, and took a few photos close to the stone gate and sent them to Fu Hua...
"Well......" Fu Hua frowned, and looked at the photos sent by Jizi a few times before slowly saying, "This stone gate is artificially made, and the divine beast 'dragon' of the ancient Shenzhou on the door... If you want to open it... It's not hard to see that there are four small holes on the door, which should be the keyhole for opening the door..."
"The keys may be nearby... You can look for clues, if I'm not mistaken, there must be some stone monument or carving on the stone wall nearby, the clue may be on it..."
"There are several on both sides of the stele!!" Kiana said excitedly, looking at the various inscriptions on both sides of the square.
"Really?!Then go and make a photographic copy of the inscriptions, and I'll translate them... I should be able to find a way to enter the stone gate..."Fu Hua proposed.
"Okay, let's do it..."Ji Zi nodded decisively, she temporarily closed the communication with Fu Hua, and said to the people behind her, "Everyone is divided into two groups, copy all the inscriptions and send them to Fu Hua..."
"Oh oh oh!" Kiana rushed out energetically, and began to take a picture of the dense and strange font on the stone tablet with a mobile phone...
"Kiana, you seem to be very good at taking pictures..."Mei Yi said with some surprise as she watched Kiana skillfully take pictures of the inscription.
"Of course, Mei Yi ..." Kiana puffed up her big breasts and said proudly, "I often take selfies and send them to my neck, attracting tens of thousands of fans!" Kiana felt that her appearance could make her debut as an idol...
....... "That's how you developed your ability to take pictures?"
"Hurry up stupid Kiana..."Bronya looked at the unstoppable white-haired dumplings and reminded, "Li Xuan and Jizi, they are almost finished filming..."
"I'm not stupid!"
"Psychopaths often say they are not sick..."
“.……”
After a commotion, everyone quickly copied all the inscriptions... Himeko turned on the communicator again and transmitted all the inscriptions to Fu Hua...
"Ahem... Okay," Fu Hua said with a sigh of relief after ten minutes of translation, "This is a kind of ancient font in the Shenzhou Continent... It is said that it has a very long history, and it is rare now... I've only seen it in old books at home, so I can only roughly translate the meaning of these words..."
"It's okay, Fu Hua, just do your best..."Himeko said softly, it was already remarkable to know the general meaning...
"Well, I'll try..."Fu Hua began to translate seriously, and said, "Destined people in the future, I am the leader of the Shenzhou tribe, 'Emperor Yan'... My wife, Ji Xuanyuan, used her life to bury the monster 'Chiyou' that endangered the Shenzhou Continent here... The only thing I can do is to use these steles to record her deeds, and I hope that future generations will remember her sacrifice..."
"Emperor Yan, isn't that a hero of the same era as the Yellow Emperor Ji Xuanyuan in the legend of Shenzhou?"
"........" Li Xuan said that he didn't want to speak, and he had the knowledge of serious legends in another world, and he felt very tired about the history of the Yellow Emperor in this world...
"Sure enough... Sure enough, this is the 'Nine Shadows'!Fu Hua, what's next?!" Ji Zi's eyes lit up, the place where they were was was indeed the Nine Shadows, the most likely place for the Xuanyuan Sword and the Holy Stigmata to exist!
"Okay, Major Himeko," Fu Hua nodded and continued to translate, "This is another inscription: a year ago, my wife left behind her closest companion and pet 'Jingwei Bird'... Alone with the Xuanyuan Sword to infiltrate the abyss, defeated Chiyou, I want to retrieve her body... But I couldn't find the Nine Shades in the vast sea, and when I gave up in despair of showing off... But the Jingwei bird kept looking for the sea with a wooden stick in its mouth, and when it was tired, it threw the wooden stick down to the sea, stepped on the wooden stick and rested, and then continued to search..."
"Finally, finally... Found here, but because of this... The Jingwei Bird has died of exhaustion..."
"?!" Li Xuan raised his head and suddenly had a bold idea...'Jingwei reclamation... Actually, it's not about reclamation, it's about finding people?!'
"Unfortunately, by the time I found here, my wife had been missing for a year... I haven't even found her body in the cave, I don't know if she's really dead... Her only relic, the Xuanyuan Sword, is gone, and the only thing I can do is erect a stele here to tell her story... And carve a stone sculpture of Jingwei bird for her, and stay here with her forever..."
"It's... That's all there is to it?" Ji Zi saw Fu Hua stop and quickly asked.
"No, no... There is also the last inscription that Li Xuan found..."Fu Hua said softly while looking at the inscription intently.
"Also... I don't know who put the gate on the stone wall... It was there when I came, and there was a small hole in the door with four keys in it... But even with the key, I can't open the stone door..."
"Because only the 'Chosen One' can be opened... And I can't open it..."
"To open the stone door, you probably need someone like my wife, who has that kind of red mark and god pattern... So, if you are the 'chosen one'... You can go to the stele I left behind and dig up the four keys I buried... Good luck with you..."
"Well, Major Himeko, that's the end here..."Fu Hua finished translating all the words and exhaled a long breath and said, "The key to opening the stone door is the person with the red mark..."
"Whoa..." everyone unanimously struck their eyes on someone with a bewildered face...
"What do you see me doing?" Li Xuan was a little late-sighted, he hadn't listened carefully to Fu Hua's translation just now... So he was stunned for a moment before he suddenly realized, "The red mark is the 'holy stigma'?!"
"Kiana, go and dig out the key for me!" Himeko said very excitedly, using a sentence from the Shenzhou Continent, 'Another village is bright and bright!'
"Okay!" Kiana, who was inexplicably ablaze, rushed out like a faithful hound...
In less than five minutes, four golden keys carved with strange patterns were inserted into the four small holes of the stone door by Kiana...
"I always feel that this is a big pit..."Li Xuan struggled and said, is there really no problem in opening this stone door?!
"It's okay, Li Xuan... If something goes wrong, I'll protect you!" Kiana said with a look of good buddy and patted him on the shoulder in encouragement.
"......." as if you can fight better than me... Li Xuan was speechless. If I slap the Xuanyuan sword, you may die believe it or not?
"Alas~" Under the expectant gaze, Li Xuan could only stretch out his hand to hold the key, although the keyholes were four, but the left and right keyholes were almost connected, so he just grabbed two with one hand...
At the moment when Li Xuan just held the key, a powerful suction force appeared out of thin air from the key... The Honkai energy in Li Xuan's body poured into the stone gate like a hole...
Even thinking that the sudden rampage of Honkai Energy, his right eye, which had been able to control the color of his pupils, suddenly lit up again, turning into golden pupils as bright as gold...
"Click!~" The gate that had been silent for thousands of years suddenly made a string sound... It's as if the gears are turning again... The door slammed open...
"That's—" Mei said silently as she looked at the scene behind the gate.
"Coffin?!" Li Xuan, who felt that his body was hollowed out, saw the square behind the door after the door opened, and a black coffin placed in the center of the square...
'It's so unlucky...'
