Chapter 31: Qinglong Palace
"It is rumored in the rivers and lakes that you are a blood demon relic, and the blood in your body will also burn! The reason why you retired to the rivers and lakes is to escape the world in this inconspicuous mountain village. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 infoI'm afraid it's because the current emperor has sent a large number of men to hunt down and kill your family! had no choice but to flee to this remote place in Beizhan! ”
Hearing what Wu Cheng said, Jiang Ye's face suddenly changed. An arrow stepped forward and pinched Wu Cheng's neck with his bare hands!
"What! If you are right, are you going to kill people? Are you really a blood demon?! ”
Jiang Ye glared angrily. Wu Cheng avoided Jiang Ye's gaze and gave a look to the person behind him.
Taking advantage of Jiang Ye's distraction, the bald head put the scimitar on the neck of Village Chief Qiao and strangled him in his arms.
"Horse thieves never trade at a loss! Even if it's death! "Wu Cheng's eyes are aggressive, and he is not a resigned demeanor." We're going to take the gold with us! Otherwise, your village chief's head will fall to the ground! ”
"Ginger...... Dr. Jiang ......"
Old Village Chief Qiao's legs were weak, and he couldn't support his own weight, and his entire body almost collapsed on the bald body. He was afraid that Jiang Ye would not compromise!
"Death to the murderer! Punishment for those who hurt people! Want to walk away with your gold? Wish for the moon! "Obviously, Jiang Ye is not a good talker.
Old Man Qiao's heart palpitated when he heard this.
"Speaking of killing! That black-faced kid in your village has killed a lot of our brothers! ”
The bald head refers to Wang Yuanxing. At this time, Yuan Xing's face was full of anger, in addition to the black mark on the center of his eyebrows, longitudinal black stripes also appeared on his cheeks on both sides.
"Everlasting...... Forever! Village Chief Qiao's voice trembled violently, and he turned to Chang Sheng for help.
Chang Sheng is an honest man, and he persuaded Jiang Ye: "Gold is originally an external object, how can it be compared with human life!" If you can exchange it for a life, why not offer it with both hands! ”
Jiang Ye looked at Chang Sheng, did this kid think that he was unwilling to compromise because he was reluctant to give up the gold?
Wu Cheng took advantage of the situation and said: "When the gold is in hand, we will leave immediately, and we will not hurt your village chief in the slightest!" And promise never to commit Taolin Village again in the future! ”
Jiang Ye sneered, "I believe you horse thieves keep their promises?" That's just a delaying tactic on your part. The practice of chasing wolves with meat will only raise the wolf's appetite even more! ”
"Then don't blame us for being rude!"
The bald head understood Wu Cheng's intentions, but he was still jealous of Jiang Ye's ability. Holding his distance as he stepped back, he pressed the blade against the village chief's throat.
Village Chief Qiao raised his chin as high as he could, so that his entire head could be tilted back, so as to avoid the cold touch of the Shen man. Could it be that he is really going to die at the hands of horse thieves today? Old Village Chief Qiao closed his eyes and suddenly shouted loudly, "Wait a minute! I know where there's more gold! ”
The bald head slapped Village Chief Qiao's cheek with a knife, and the slapping sounded. The old village chief could only close his eyes and grit his teeth to endure.
"Old man, don't talk nonsense just to survive!"
"I didn't ......," Qiao Lao shrank his neck, tilted his cheeks, and avoided the slapping knife face and continued, "How could this poor country, barren mountains and mountains, suddenly emerge with so many pure gold bricks!" ”
"Then where do you say the gold bricks came from?"
"Tombs! There is a tomb of General Beizhan here! It's full of gold! It's right below this Yaoshan mountain range! ”
Wu Cheng's expression was still painful, but when he heard this, he raised his eyebrows with interest.
"Is that true?"
"Eighty years ago, the people of Taolin Village once dug up an ancient tomb and stole some gold! If you don't believe me, I have a hand-drawn map at home at that time, and you can see it at a glance! ”
Yuan Xing walked up to Jiang Ye and whispered: "That ancient tomb is full of organs, and these horse thieves are only afraid that there will be no return." Just let them go! ”
Jiang Ye looked at Yuan Xing, who was covered with black lines at this time, and his eyes showed doubt.
The horse thief managed to get his hands on the map, which detailed the location of the entrance to the tomb. But the horse thief refused to let the village chief go, and insisted on dragging him away.
"Let him go!" Yuan Xing stepped forward and said, "I brought out the gold!" I killed the horse thief! If you want revenge, you will also come at me! What's the use of you holding an old man hostage? Take me for him, you don't lose! ”
"There's a kind!"
The bald head put the scimitar on Yuan Xing's shoulder, and pushed away the old village chief Qiao with his other hand.
……………………………………
Yaoshan Cliff:
This is a cliff left behind by a landslide, located halfway up the mountain. It has been covered with vegetation again over the years, and it is really difficult to see the difference if you don't look for it. Peeling back the vegetation, you can see that the mountain is showing some gray, which does not match the color of the surrounding loess.
It used to be a hole, but now it's sealed. The horse thieves were outnumbered, and in a short time they dug the hole again.
"Since you've been in the tomb, you should know something about the situation inside. It's up to you to take the lead! The bald head pushed Yuan Xing behind his back.
Wang Yuanxing poked his head into the cave. The entrance was actually a hole in the wall of the pit viper maze. The inside of the mountain is still a familiar labyrinth passage. Yuan Xing was surprised, did the vastness of the pit viper maze really cover the entire Yao Mountain?
"You don't understand, there's a big, complicated labyrinth down here. Even if I went in once, I wouldn't be able to get out of it this time. What's more, I didn't get in from here, nor did I come out of here, and the cliff entrance here was a new challenge for us. Even if there were villagers who had come in and out, they were careless. You can't get too many people in at a time, otherwise there will be an emergency, and everyone will be blocked. ”
Wu Cheng doesn't trust Yuan Xing, but it's always right to have reservations. So he left most of the horse thieves to guard the outer entrance, and let the bald head take seven or eight people and follow Yuan Xing down.
There are many jugs and rice jars on both sides of the entrance to the labyrinthine passage, and it seems that the tomb robbers of eighty years ago were prepared for a long battle here.
As soon as you enter the cave, you have to make a choice, there are roads on the left and right directions, and there is no end in sight.
Yuan Xing just made a false statement in order to distract the horse thieves. The most important thing for him is how to get out. It doesn't matter where you go. So Yuan Xing intuitively chose the right side.
As they went deeper, the bald head and others found many dry bones one after another. Judging from the costumes, they should all be local villagers.
Yuan Xing carefully examined the bones, and there was no sign of them being eroded by corpse poison. But these people are not far from the exit, and it is not like they are trapped here because they are lost.
"What are you rubbing?" The bald head kept urging Yuan Xing, and the narrow and dim space made him feel uncomfortable. He only hoped that he could find the gold bricks sooner and go out earlier.
"You know what." Yuan Xing lifted a human bone and said, "If we don't find out the cause of death of these people, I'm afraid we will also be on the door." Look at the scars on these bones! ”
The bald head did not shy away from it, and reached out to take it and take a look.
"They were killed!" The bald head threw the bones behind him contemptuously, "Humph! The spoils are unevenly divided! ”
These knife marks are engraved on the bones, what kind of hatred is this? Do the villagers have such sharp knife skills? Yuan Xing, who said that it was a horse thief, still believed it.
"Two masters! There's a big burial chamber in front! Come and see! ”
A few bold horse thieves have already surpassed Yuan Xing and run to the front to investigate. Yuan Xing didn't want to care about the lives of these people, but he was afraid that they would touch something, but he would also affect himself.
Yuan Xing trotted all the way over, and found that the tomb they were talking about was similar to the tomb he had seen in the Moon Gate Palace, except that it was larger.
The burial chamber is vast, and the four walls are different. The east side is connected to the pit viper labyrinth passage, and Yuan Xing enters the tomb from the east. The west side is a mural, the south side is four green dragon stone pillars, and the north side is a stone gate that has been half-opened, and the stone door is carved with a green dragon pattern.
Yuan Xing quickly swept everything in the tomb, secretly remembering it in his heart, for fear of missing something. If it is said that the tomb with a crescent stone door before, Yuan Xing called it "Moon Gate Palace". Then Yuan Xing called this place "Qinglong Palace".
In the middle of the tomb of the Qinglong Palace there is a coffin that has been opened. There was some golden powder inside the coffin, and there should have been gold nuggets piled up here for a long time, but it had been looted long ago.
Aside from the gold dust, Yuan Xing did not find anything abnormal. There was no corpse in the coffin, and Yuan Xing couldn't be sure if there was ever a zombie lying here.
The horse thief was very curious about everything here, and he touched the east and the west. Yuan Xing shouted: "Don't touch things!" ”
As soon as Yuan Xing's words fell, the surrounding walls continued to hear the sound of rumbling and clattering. The originally half-open Qinglong stone door suddenly closed! Above the labyrinth passage at the entrance, a heavy stone wall also fell! The tomb of Qinglong Palace has been surrounded on all sides at the moment!
The loud noise seemed to frighten the horse thief closest to Yuanxing. When the dust was in the air, the man suddenly screamed like a ghost.
"Ah!! Go away!!! ”
Although the horse thief told Yuan Xing to go away, he pulled out his scimitar and rushed straight at Yuan Xing.
Yuan Xing leaned back and rolled over, dodging the horse thief's attack. Kick the ground with your back leg, and your body pops forward like an arrow. Yuan Xing's forehead was black and shiny, and he wouldn't give the horse thief another chance. The fierce claws went straight to the opponent's chest, and a boiling heat suddenly dispersed all over the ground...... The rich taste made Yuan Xing can't help but lick the back of his hand.
Blood drove Yuan Xing crazy, but the soul of the horse thief brought Yuan Xing back to his senses. The soul and blood eat together, but it has the effect of opposing each other.
Yuan Xing, who came back to his senses, found that the Qinglong tomb was already in chaos, and everyone was killing each other!
"Hey! Stop y'all! ”
Instinct drove Yuan Xing to stop these people from killing each other. He pulled down one and kicked over another, but more people pounced on him to fight, and Yuan Xing couldn't care about it at all.
"Hell!" As far as the eye could see, there was nothing wrong with this burial chamber, and he did not see half an evil thing at all. What is it that makes people crazy?
Did the horse thief who was killed by himself come into contact with anything? Yuan Xing tried to remember.
"Powder!"
Yuan Xing wiped a handful of golden powder near the coffin again, rubbed his hand to the tip of his nose and sniffed. What a spooky taste! This is not gold dust at all!
But even if he knew where the suspicion was, Yuan Xing couldn't solve it.
"If only Su Wuqian were here, she would definitely be able to find out the mechanism to crack it!"
Su Wuqian? That's right. Yuan Xing was able to escape safely from the Moon Gate Palace because Su Wuqian understood the story on the mural.
Yuan Xing turned over and ran past the crowd and ran to the west stone wall. These pictures on the wall construct a character story "Famous Paintings of the Past Dynasties".
"The finishing touch?" Yuan Xing looked at the four green dragon stone pillars on one side with understanding.
Taking a closer look, Yuan Xing found that the reliefs of the green dragons on each stone pillar were carved lifelike and vivid, and each green dragon had grooves in its eyes, and a small truncated candle was inserted in them.
Yuan Xing lit a fire and lit the candles in the eyes of all the green dragons. The four pairs of longans are purple and black, light blue, orange and blue.
A strange fragrance instantly filled the tomb. It's just that everyone has not gotten better, but they are fighting more ferociously!
Why hasn't the agency been lifted? What the hell is wrong!
Yuan Xing looks at the mural again! As shown in the painting, Zhang Seng painted four dragons on the wall in Jinling Anle Temple, and later only added the eyes of a dragon, causing the dragon to soar. As a result, the remaining three dragons were left on the wall.
Will it be related to the color of the longan? However, the mural is so old that it is impossible to see the colors painted in the painting!
Which one exactly!
