Chapter 124: Ten Thousand Coffins
"What kind of person?" asked Yi Huan.
He thought about it for a while, but he didn't come up with an answer. At this time, the two of them had already entered the gourd valley, and in front of them was a vast white mist, and their vision was hazy, and nothing clear appeared in front of them.
"The man who first discovered that the valley led to the bottom of the earth was a blind man. Xiao Feng said.
Yi Huan listened and nodded.
That's right, in such a place where the view is completely obstructed, only the blind will continue to explore everything in the valley without any interference. The white fog obscures the vision, and for the blind, it does not cause any discomfort.
It's no wonder that when Xiao Feng asked himself just now, he couldn't guess at all. But if you think about it, it makes sense.
"Sir just put his arm on my shoulder. I've walked here so many times that even if I can't see the way, I can still touch the entrance. After Xiao Feng finished speaking, he put Yi Huan's hand on his shoulder and walked forward.
Yi Huan helped Xiao Feng and walked forward slowly. His dantian secretly operated his soul power, and his eyes emitted a little light.
His pupil power, because of the subduing of the three divine dragons, has become very powerful. Although he can't always forcibly return to the seventh-grade level to awaken the Celestial Divine Pupil, due to the nourishment of the three elements, the vision of his eyes has surpassed the boundaries of ordinary people. In the vast vapour, I can barely see through the outlines of some mountain walls.
The terrain inside the gourd valley is like a huge hollow ring, and there is hardly any place to enter or exit except for the entrance when the two of them just entered. The whole gourd valley looks like a natural encirclement.
Yi Huan noticed that in fact, in this gourd valley, although the eyes of mortals were completely cloudy with moisture, there was no scene. But through his pupil power, what he saw was a hundred grasses and abundant grass.
Perhaps because of the perennial nourishment of water vapor, the vegetation here grows very luxuriantly. Except for the drier places near the ground, there are even faint droplets of water on the other high mountain walls.
"Sir, we'll be a few more steps ahead. Xiao Feng said.
"Xiao Feng, the environment here is so humid, I'm afraid it's not a good place to store corpses. Is it really suitable for the underground of the valley?" asked Yi Huan.
If the corpse wants to be stored and not decomposed for a long time, the first condition is low temperature. According to Xiao Feng, the underground of this valley is cold all year round, and it does meet the conditions.
The second condition is to ensure dryness. Corpses in wet conditions will decay in a short period of time, and only dry areas can preserve corpses well and not decompose easily.
Looking at this gourd valley, surrounded by water vapor, I am afraid it is not a suitable place.
"Sir, it's almost there. You go in with me and see, and you'll find out. Xiao Feng stepped forward quickly, although he couldn't see anything clearly, but he was still very skillful in picking up the pile of grass in front of him. Soon, Yi Huan saw a bare stone wall.
Yi Huan slightly increased the operation of his soul power, making the scene in his eyes clearer. On the stone wall that Xiao Feng touched, there were obvious gaps, and the outline of the gaps was a natural charm. And this stone wall looks like it is man-made.
Xiao Feng's fingers grabbed the edge of the crack in the stone wall, and with a strong pull, the entire stone wall pulled out a deeper crack. Soon, a hole was clearly presented in front of the two.
Dropping the stone wall, Xiao Feng said: "When the blind man found the entrance to this cave, he happened to find a huge stone next to it
The boulder shatters into the shape of this hole, and then blocks the hole with the stone. Later, after he came out, he told the villagers the secret of this gourd valley. ”
He took Yi Huan's hand and put it on his shoulder again. Yi Huan waved his hand, indicating that he didn't need it. The two of them walked into the hole.
The two of them walked down one of the paths. The trail was clearly repaired. There are no weeds or vegetation inside, and the stone steps are carefully paved. As they went down, the trail gradually widened.
"When I was a child, I didn't like to practice martial arts all day because I was too tired. Sometimes, I come to this Huangnan Mountain to play. But no matter how much he runs, Master can always catch up. So later, I fled to this gourd valley, so that even if Master came in, he would not be able to see me. Xiao Feng recalled, a smile on his face.
Yi Huan followed him, nodding from time to time.
"Later, I became familiar with this place, and Master became familiar with this place. Sometimes, even if I enter the gourd valley, I will still be caught by him. So, I remembered what the blind man said, and every night when I was tired from practicing, I came in to find this hole. The water vapor in the gourd valley is warm in winter and cool in summer, and many times, I stay in the gourd valley all night to sleep, not to mention how comfortable it is. Xiao Feng said.
These were all the memories of the gourd valley in his mind. It is also a good memory of him and his master when they played hide and seek as children.
Looking back, he was very naughty at that time, didn't listen to his master's words, and always deserted for fun. It wasn't until his master was gone that he realized that what he lost could never be returned.
On the day when the master left, Xiao Feng grabbed the master's hand and didn't want the master to leave. However, Shan Yu was still resolute, saying that when the demon clan cholera is today, as a swordsman, he should act chivalrous and save all the people from fire and water, how can he steal his life and enjoy himself!
That day, Xiao Feng chased from early morning to dusk, but he didn't catch up with the master. When Master's shadow finally turned into a black dot and disappeared behind the setting sun, he shouted to the clouds in the distance, Master, one day, I will become a swordsman as powerful as you!
But since then, he has not seen Shan Yu again. Although he was extremely proud to hear about Master's deeds from time to time, what he was really looking forward to was being able to practice swords with Master in the sunset again.
Time flies, and there is no return, and it is more than ten years in a blink of an eye.
Xiao Feng and Yi Huan walked forward in the path, the path in front of them became more and more open, and a faint light cast over and shone into their eyes.
"Sir, we'll see that open space in a moment. Xiao Feng noticed the light and said happily to Yi Huan.
Yi Huan looked at the beam of light and smiled slightly.
Soon, the trail bottomed out. The two leaned out from this entrance, a few stones rolled down under their feet, Xiao Feng said "Mr. be careful", and then took Yi Huan's hand and led him into this underground world.
Looking at the scene in front of him, Yi Huan couldn't help but be surprised.
The sky was open in front of him, and in the middle of this underground cavern, fireflies flickered. It's like an underground wonderland. As they walked forward, their vision glowing with the fluorescence of the snow insects became as beautiful as a starry night.
As far as the eye can see, on dozens of acres of open space, rows of neat sunken wooden coffins are displayed. The planks of the coffins were all freshly lit, and some of them were not even dusty, apparently just after they were made.
"It turns out that Bai Yan really put the corpses of the villagers here?" Xiao Feng said, about to open the nearest coffin board to check, Yi Huan stopped him: "This is disrespectful to the deceased." ”
Yi Huan's eyes were slightly closed, and the power of divine consciousness probed these tens of thousands of coffins. After a long time, he opened his eyes and gently exhaled a breath of turbidity.
"That's right, in the middle of all these coffins are the corpses of your Lucheng people. Yi Huan said.
As soon as the words fell, Yi Huan felt Xiao Feng's broad shoulders beside him tremble slightly. At this moment, Xiao Feng covered his face. Soon, the reckless swordsman's tears dripped down his fingers!
The lives of countless villagers were taken by the ghost king Yu Che in just a few days! Tens of thousands of people's lives!
Why, why could he take the lives of so many people casually!
"I want revenge! I want to kill the Ghost King!" Xiao Feng roared, and the roar shook the surrounding coffin boards slightly.
Yi Huan patted him on the shoulder: "No matter what, I will help you rescue Bai Yan and revive the people of Lucheng." Until then, though, listen to me. Tens of thousands of dead souls are placed here, and weeping here will only make it difficult for them to rest in peace. ”
The very gentle words entered Xiao Feng's ears, making him gradually stop crying. Wiping away the tears on his face, he finally recovered his emotions under Yi Huan's comfort: "What Mr. said is right. Just crying blindly won't make a big deal!What I'm going to do is to kill the Ghost King before Bai Yan makes a sacrifice!"
He turned his head and looked at Yi Huan with a determined gaze: "Mr. said before that he would guide me to practice kendo, and I have the opportunity to avenge the villagers and give them a new life, is this true?"
"Really. Yi Huan is also very determined.
"I believe in the strength of the gentleman. However, it may be difficult to make a breakthrough in a short period of time. What secret method is the gentleman going to use?" Xiao Feng asked with an eager look.
Yi Huan was silent, he avoided Xiao Feng's gaze and took a few steps forward.
Seeing Yi Huan's appearance, Xiao Feng was even more anxious, he stepped forward, looked at him in front of Yi Huan, and asked: "Sir, whether it is going up the knife mountain or going down to the sea of fire, as long as I can take revenge and save the lives of the villagers, I will not give up!"
A piece of sincerity moved Yi Huan a little. He patted Xiao Feng on the shoulder, sighed softly, and said, "My method is not the Fire Sea Sword Mountain, Master Xiao doesn't have to be too nervous." I also believe that with this obsession, Lord Xiao Shizhu will definitely be able to save everyone's lives as he wishes. Of course, before that, I have to make some preparations. ”
As he spoke, he continued to walk a few steps forward, fanning lightly, looking at the piece of ten thousand coffins, and from time to time at the entrance of the cave, silent.
"Since we have to prepare, then Mr. and I should hurry out of the gourd valley and make plans early!" Xiao Feng said, and was about to walk towards the entrance of the cave.
Yi Huan stopped him: "Master Xiao, don't be in such a hurry. When I say prepare, I mean waiting for certain people here. ”
"Wait for someone?" Xiao Feng wondered, "It's so hidden here, who else will come?"
As he was talking, a yin wind accompanied by a shrill and piercing laughter came: "Hahaha, I said who is pretending to be us, it turns out that they are two human races who don't know the height of the sky!"
The white-eyed ape demon and the blue-eyed monkey appeared at the entrance of the cave, staring at Yihuan and Xiao Feng. There was a look of contempt in their eyes.
Yi Huan smiled slightly, his face did not change, the feather fan pointed at the two demons, and said to Xiao Feng: "They are the ones I am waiting for." ”
