Chapter 190: The Remnants of the One Eye Country
The secluded ancient tower towers to the sky, surrounded by white bones, blazing lava flows around, a huge canyon cuts off the way, and there is endless lava flowing in it, constantly blazing with fire bubbles, judging from the existing ruins, there was once a stone bridge across this canyon, leading to the gate of the ancient tower, but it was artificially destroyed. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
Shen Hanyu came to the bridgehead, and there was a crooked ghost head totem, carved from black stone, which had left a crack on it, after all, after nearly 10,000 years of erosion, even the stubborn stone could not resist.
"Look at the bridge...... At best, it's less than 10,000 years of history......" Shen Hanyu turned his head to look at the entire ruins, and said thoughtfully: "That is to say...... The fall of the Ichimoku Kingdom was less than 10,000 years. ”
"You stay here." Shen Hanyu said to Xiyan and the caterpillar, saying that he jumped over the canyon and landed in front of the ancient tower, as soon as he stood firm, Shen Hanyu heard Xiyan's exclamation behind him, and quickly turned his head to look, but found that Xiyan and the caterpillar were still behind, and both of them were confused.
"Why are you here?" Shen Hanyu asked.
"Uh...... We were thrown over......" Xiyan looked innocent, and the caterpillar also nodded wildly, and the moment Shen Hanyu jumped up, Xiyan and the caterpillar were brought over by an invisible force.
Shen Hanyu nodded and said, "I feel that there is an inexplicable aura in this ancient tower that has hooked my corpse qi, I want to take a look."
"Be careful, this may be the resting place of the Ghost King, I'm afraid there is something bad." Xiyan was a little nervous.
Shen Hanyu laughed and said, "Hoodoo? Aren't we zombies also hoodoos? ”
The caterpillar flew to the side of the ancient tower at this moment, and suddenly waved its little paws and shouted: "Come on, there are murals here!"
Shen Hanyu and Xiyan walked over, only to see that on the broken mountain next to the ancient tower, there are indeed a large number of murals, after nearly 10,000 years of time, many murals have been mottled, but there are still a few relatively intact preserved.
This is a very old fresco, and the figures and animals are very simple, but they are clear at a glance.
At the beginning, the mural depicted a prosperous scene, with a towering city wall, a large number of residents, a large number of people building a new home, surrounded by mountains, corresponding to the current terrain, Shen Hanyu can be sure that the painting on it is the Ichimoku country before the tomb of the ghost king was destroyed, and it should be when the Ichimoku country was just built.
The next one is the experience of the Ichimoku country against the flood barbarian beast, the battle is very fierce, the brute beast with a huge chain, inconvenient to move, but still let the Ichimoku country suffer heavy losses, and finally there is a Ichimoku country, returned from the deep mountains, has holy power, with a stone spear to kill the brute beast, so as to be surrounded as the king.
The next one is a large-scale sacrificial event held by the people of Ichimoku country, the object of sacrifice is the ghost king of the Western Regions, it should be that Ichimoku king found the tomb of the ghost king in the deep mountains, and obtained part of the power of the ghost king, so as to subdue the brute beast, from here, the people of Ichimoku will regard the ghost king of the Western Regions as their only guardian god.
Then the next scene is the excavation of the ancient tower, this excavation project is undoubtedly huge, the king of Ichimoku with his own divine power, drove the endless beasts and other alien slaves and giants to excavate, it took ten years, before the ancient tower was dug out, in order to commemorate the ghost king, the king of Ichimoku killed all the brute beasts and slaves involved in the excavation project, and hung their heads on the ancient tower.
The middle few paintings are not clear, and when I see the murals again, it is a natural disaster, a rain of fire falls wildly, the earth cracks, the lava erupts, and the powerful and prosperous country of Ichimoku is completely destroyed in just one day, and the king with divine power is nowhere to be found.
After Shen Hanyu finished reading the murals, he probably learned the secrets of the Ichimoku country, but although the last few paintings are still in the style of the murals of the Ichimoku country, it is obvious that they were done by later generations, that is to say, the natural disaster did not completely exterminate the Ichimu country, and there are survivors, but after so many years, it is estimated that those survivors have also been buried in the loess.
"I'm curious, what happened in the middle, and finally the natural disaster struck, where did the king of Namoku go?" The caterpillar said, pointing to the mural.
Shen Hanyu shook his head, then looked at the numerous skulls on the ancient tower, and finally fell on the ancient tower, and said, "It should have a lot to do with the ghost king's tomb being dug up."
Saying that, Shen Hanyu came to the ancient tower, stretched out his hand and pushed open the heavy stone door, and the cold breath came to his face, swaying Shen Hanyu's long hair, and scattering dust, at the same time, the strong blood made Shen Hanyu's eyes flash.
The ancient tower is extremely huge, but many places inside have been damaged, the stairs leading to the top of the tower have all collapsed, and you can see the top of the tower at a glance, it is empty, but at the feet of Shen Hanyu, there are stairs leading to the ground, stretching into the darkness.
The caterpillar probe looked at it and said, "It should be a burial chamber below."
Shen Hanyu nodded, didn't say anything, went down the stairs, there was nothing all the way, and finally, after going down hundreds of meters, Shen Hanyu came to the deepest part of the ancient tower, and what appeared in front of them was another stone gate, which looked much thicker than the gate, and there were hideous ghost heads carved on it, which made people creepy.
In front of the stone gate, there are also a large number of corpses, but they are all dried corpses, Shen Hanyu easily turned up a dried corpse, he is not a native of Yimu Country, but he was a cultivator before his death, and it can be inferred from the shattered mud pill palace that this person's soul is deprived, the internal organs are constricted, the blood vessels are flattened, and it can be seen that the blood was drained before birth.
"This person was deprived of his soul and died by sucking the blood out of his body." Shen Hanyu said with great certainty, and then he checked several other dried corpses, all of which had the same cause of death, and there were many Chinese people in them.
"Did the zombie do it?" Xiyan said softly.
Shen Hanyu frowned and said: "It's possible, the time of their death can't be determined now, but it must be very ancient, if it is really the spirit zombie, then that spirit zombie should be very powerful now, I just don't know if he walked into this stone gate to go to the tomb of the ghost king."
Speaking of this, Shen Hanyu felt that aura again, which made the corpse qi in his body go crazy.
Suppressing the corpse qi in his body, Shen Hanyu walked to the door, and just as he was about to open the stone door, a faint sound suddenly came from a dark corner.
Xi Yan was taken aback, and thunder and lightning immediately flashed in his hand, and the electric light reflected in all directions, only to see that in the corner on the side, a dry hand picked up the dried corpse that was pressed on his body, and then a dry corpse with almost lost hair crawled up.
"Wait!" Just when Xi Yan was about to make a move, Shen Hanyu stepped forward to stop Xi Yan, looked at the dry corpse and said, "Don't do it, he's still alive."
"Huh? Alive? Xiyan was stunned, and then looked at the person, his skin was dry, his face was colorless, and he really couldn't see that he was still alive, but the only eye in the center of his face that was still turning made Xiyan put away the thunder light, and the person was indeed alive.
"Who are you?" Shen Hanyu asked, although this person was not dead, Shen Hanyu was still vigilant.
The old man stood up with difficulty, his steps were stiff, and he walked over slowly, his voice was extremely harsh because of his dryness, and said, "I am Keriza, the only survivor of the Ichimoku people......"
Kerizha looked at Shen Hanyu and Xiyan and the caterpillar with one-eyed eyes, and said, "An ancient zombie, a thunder god, and a foreign race...... Do you also want to go to the Ghost King's Tomb for chance? ”
The caterpillar's expression suddenly changed after hearing the old man's words, and his gaze at the old man was also very sharp, with a hint of murderous intent.
Shen Hanyu unconsciously protected Xiyan behind him, and he was completely aware that the blood and qi in Kerizha's body were almost exhausted, and he was only one step away from death, which could also understand Keriza's usual behavior of showing his body in the shape of a dry corpse, because that would reduce the passage of life as much as possible.
"You...... Is it a continuation of the mural? Shen Hanyu asked.
Kerizha nodded, indicating that Shen Hanyu was right.
"What happened to the country of Ichimoku? Does it really have anything to do with the Tomb of the Ghost King? Shen Hanyu asked.
Kerizha turned to look at the stone gate and said, "Everything is because of him, young man, don't come and disturb here, the body of the ghost king is not here, he has already exiled his body into the starry sky."
"That'...... Who's in this? Shen Hanyu looked at the stone gate, and he could feel that there was some kind of existence inside.
Kerizha was silent, didn't speak for a long time, and finally asked: "It's not the ghost king inside, young man, go back, there is no chance of the ghost king here, your acquisition of the bronze underworld is already a great opportunity, don't bury your life in vain."
"You misunderstood, I didn't come here to fight for chance, but to break this fierce situation, otherwise sooner or later this place will form an illusion world, and I don't know how many innocent lives will be harmed." Shen Hanyu said.
"Hmm......" The old man leaned his back and said, "It's rare for a zombie to have a heart of fraternity, but ah...... Young man, this game, you can't break it, eight thousand years ago, when the country of Ichimoku was destroyed, everything was out of control, the ghost king was gone, no one could break this game, even a few gods of the ancient kingdom of gods were unwilling to meddle in this matter, unless the ghost king came in person, or...... The Ten Realms Dao Corpse ......"
Shen Hanyu was about to speak, when a crazy roar suddenly came from behind the stone gate, and then the stone gate shook the sky, and dust fell, as if the existence inside tried to break through the stone door and come out.
"What's going on!" Shen Hanyu's face changed.
Kerizha was very calm, and said: "It's been eight thousand years, and it's like this every once in a while, this little girl stays, you can leave quickly."
"Huh? What do you mean? Shen Hanyu's eyes lit up and he looked at Keriza.
Kerizha sighed slightly, and said, "It's not that I have a thirst for killing, it's just that I have to put him to sleep again with blood, and if he escapes, it will be a disaster for the entire flood wilderness."
"You...... Want to feed him with my blood? Xiyan couldn't help but grasp the corner of Shen Hanyu's clothes.
