Chapter 653: A Test of Conscience

The old patriarch is a blind man, I'm not, I see the black rumbling inside the secret passage, there is no light at all, so I think the secret passage is different. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

The old patriarch said, "It's okay, you can go." If a person comes in, no matter which way you go alone, the mechanism will be triggered, and the mechanism here is very powerful, and once it is triggered, there will be no corpse.

The old patriarch and I finally separated from each other and walked slowly, and when I reached the end, I found that it was not that the passage was not opened, but that the passage had turned a corner when it entered the underground.

The design of this bend makes it impossible for the light outside to directly penetrate the two entrances, so it will give people the illusion that the secret passage is impassable.

When entering the secret passage, the old patriarch walked more and more slowly. And the pace is a little shaky. I hurriedly asked: Patriarch, what's wrong with you?

The old patriarch leaned his back against the stone wall and whispered to me, "Abu, let me rest...... Break ......

When the old patriarch spoke, it seemed as if he was about to die. He didn't sit on the ground, but leaned against the wall, slowly slipped and fell to the ground, and finally sat on the ground.

However, I think the air flow in this secret passage does not seem to be short of oxygen, after all, I am not dizzy, I feel that my breathing is quite smooth, and I do not have the feeling of difficulty breathing.

Guarding the old patriarch's surroundings, I didn't say a word. The old patriarch held his heart with both hands, his face was like gold paper, and he held on like this for a while before he regained his strength, and immediately moaned softly: It is estimated that my life will not be long.

I sighed, but didn't know what to say, and I picked up the old patriarch. When I continued to walk towards the bottom of the secret passage, my mood was very heavy, maybe this road was the old patriarch's point of no return. Dirty winter garbage.

Perhaps the moment the treasure was taken, the old patriarch's life would come to an end.

I said to the old patriarch: It seems that there is a way to continue life for a short time, light an oil lamp, if the oil lamp is not extinguished, you can continue to live, if the oil lamp is extinguished, you can not live" long, do you know this method?

The old patriarch nodded and said: Zhuge Kongming used this method before he died, but as everyone knows, the destiny of heaven has been decided, and everyone's life has already been destined for life, even if the lamp is lit, if the heavens want to accept you, they will think of any way to extinguish your lamp.

I scratched my head and said, "I don't understand."

"Zhuge Kongming's oil lamp was blown out by a gust of wind brought by the generals who rushed in from outside the account, and he didn't survive in the end, this is not an accident, it is not a coincidence, this is the destiny of heaven. If God doesn't let you live longer, you must not be able to continue to live. Even if Zhuge Kongming was lucky enough to escape the yin wind brought in by the generals, maybe the tent would collapse, or he himself would fall down and knock down the candlestick, which was possible. "The old patriarch's words, I suddenly felt that there was a kind of numerology philosophy in it.

Many times, when everyone is doing something, they actually have the answer in their minds, but they still want to give it a go, or give it a try.

The simplest example is to flip a coin to decide whether you want to do something or not, in fact, when you decide to flip a coin, you have already made a choice for yourself in your heart, but you are very entangled in your heart, just trying to find a reason, find an excuse to do it in a grand manner.

As I was walking forward, I suddenly heard the sound of rushing water in front of me, and I was stunned, thinking to myself, how could there be water in the belly of this mountain? Could it be that the snow melted some time ago and seeped into the belly of the mountain? The possibility exists.

I opened my night eyes and looked ahead, and found that it was a collapsed road, but I didn't know where the water source came from, and the area was irrigated, and the water depth was about waist high.

The old patriarch lowered his body, stretched out his hand and dipped it in a little water, then leaned in front of his nose and sniffed it, and then licked it in his mouth, and after foaming at the mouth, he said, "Abu, have you ever done anything to be sorry for others?"

I was stunned for a moment, thinking to myself why this old patriarch asked all the strange questions along the way. These questions always make my second monk scratch my head and don't know how to answer.

I thought about it for a moment and said, "Doesn't think so?"

The old patriarch's face was very strict, and he said: If you think about it carefully, you must think clearly, what I said is the kind of thing that hurts nature and reason, and loses your conscience, you want to know whether you have done it.

Don't talk about this kind of thing, I immediately replied: no, absolutely never done. To put it mildly, I don't dare to do it even if I want to, if I dare to do something that violates my conscience, I don't know how to pass my father's level, and I guess I have to be crippled if I can't be killed.

After hearing this, the old patriarch nodded and said: "Yes, you can go over, if nothing else, you have walked through this dark river, and at the end of the tunnel, it is where the treasure is."

I hummed, and when I was about to go down to the river, I asked, "Patriarch, aren't you going with me?"

The patriarch's face changed, he became a little embarrassed, he said with some embarrassment: I don't go with this old bone, if I can't come back, it will be a pity, I want to bury my body around the village and continue to guard my people.

"That's fine, then you wait for me here, and after I take out the treasure, I'll come back to you." After saying goodbye to the old patriarch, I went straight into the water.

I went, it was really cold, when the ice water penetrated the clothes and hit the skin, this sour was unimaginable, but fortunately, the dark river was not long, only more than ten meters, after walking over, I shook my trouser legs, and glanced at the old patriarch, he was standing on the edge of the dark river, facing my direction, with a smile on his face.

As I continued to walk forward, I had just turned a corner, and in front of the passage, I saw a circular stone platform, and the moment I saw this stone platform, countless pictures quickly surged into my mind, countless familiar and unfamiliar pictures.

Let's not talk about what is on the circular stone platform, but the shape of the circular stone platform is exactly the same as the stone platform I have seen, that is, the round stone platform where I store the Jiulong Golden Tripod on the hanging stone pillar in the belly of Qinling Mountain is exactly the same, and the size and shape are not bad at all.

Looking at the things on the circular stone platform, I was even more shocked, this thing that flashed with a faint golden light turned out to be the ten treasures mentioned in the Ten Peerless Dragons, I had seen it in an ancient book before, in fact, the treasures in the Ten Peerless Dragons, combined, were a sword, an armor, and a helmet.

The dragon head of the Ten Peerless Dragons is at the foot of Kunlun Mountain, that is to say, the first treasure of the Ten Peerless Dragons is the karmic fire golden Jiao that I once used, but unfortunately now the karmic fire golden Jiao has been put into the deep mountains by me to suppress the ghosts and Buddhas of the Great Dark Mountain. And the second thing is the Nine Dragons Golden Tripod I saw in the Qinling Mountains, but I still don't know if I have obtained the Nine Dragons Golden Tripod.

This third piece is a pair of golden bone claw gloves, I walked over slowly, staring at the bone claw gloves are stunned, this workmanship is so exquisite, it is simply a heirloom, it looks like it is made of pure gold, but the shape is five bone claws, the shape of the bone claws is sharp and angular, very powerful. However, the inside is made into a cylindrical shape, which makes it more comfortable for fingers when you wear it.

"Good." My eyes widened, and I slowly stretched out my palm, as if I was stunned, I couldn't help but want to take the golden bone claw gloves, but the moment I touched the gloves, the light in the entire space disappeared, and the bone claw gloves were no longer visible. The space was plunged into darkness for an instant.

I hurriedly turned on the night eye, quickly adapted to the surrounding environment, when I saw that there was nothing on the round stone platform, just like the Qinling Mountains in the Nine Dragons of the Nine Dragons is the same solution, I can't help but think: Could it be that the so-called treasures in the Ten Peerless Dragons are not really for me to take away, but for me to touch them? If you touch it, even if you have it?

I sighed, and went back, but when I walked to the dark river just now, I suddenly found that the old patriarch was lying on the surface of the dark river, constantly struggling, and the bottom of the river was like countless transparent palms, pulling his clothes down, and I obviously saw that his clothes were torn.

"Patriarch!" I was like an electric shock, and I immediately rushed away, and jumped into the dark river with a thud.
