In the middle of the night, when I heard that there was no movement in the stone palace, I got up cautiously and poked my head out of the place where the beam came from. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

It turned out that this was not the entrance to the cave, but another larger chamber, and in the middle of this chamber there was a huge furnace, and the light from the furnace made me think that this was the entrance to the cave.

There is something strange about the palace room here......

There were several other doors around this chamber similar to the one I had walked out of, and I picked one to sneak in while keeping an eye out for it.

But one palace room is connected to another, and when you go out, it is still a palace room, which seems to be a bit like walking into a labyrinth. It's just that some of the palaces have a stove lit, and some don't. I could only keep going, there was a smell of earth and decay everywhere, the breath inhaled from my nose felt very uncomfortable, this place was just like the stone palace that Hongling said, there were stones everywhere, the walls were stones, the ground was stone, and the roof was stone...... It really makes people wonder if this so-called stone palace is a palace carved out of a huge stone.

This is already the sixth palace room in a row, although each one is not large, but some palace rooms will have multiple doors, and this one is connected to one, which can't help but make me wonder, this may not be the one I am about to go back to come out of at all.

Walking through a larger palace room with a fire, I chose a door on the other side, and there was no other door in this room, only the door that came in, and it seemed that this one was the end.

In the faint light, I could see a person sitting in the corner.

I was a little scared, but I still walked cautiously, I have always been very curious, if I live in a ghost movie, I must be the first to kill myself.

"Hey!" I was still a few steps away from him, and from a distance, I whispered. "Who are you?"

Didn't answer, did you fall asleep?

"Hey, are you awake?" I asked again, raising my voice a little, but I was afraid of inviting others.

He hadn't answered yet.

Can't they wake him up twice? Then this man slept too much.

Die?! No way...... I took two steps forward, trying to see if he was really dead from a safe distance, but ...... There was a smell in him, a smell that had begun to rot.

Now, I understand.

"Master." Hongling's voice suddenly appeared behind me, causing goosebumps to rise all over my body. She quickly walked up to me, looked at the people on the ground, and then at me, "Master, how did you find here?" ”

"I'm just walking around, this, who is he? Why did he die here. "Because if the smell of decay starts to appear, at least it's been dead for a while, but I can only smell that little bit after I get closer, so the body of this person who died here is definitely processed, and this alone is enough to make me feel that the Hongling in front of me is full of threats.

Hongling couldn't explain for a while, so she could only push me out of the palace room first, and came to the one with a stove in the middle, "He is Kang Hui." ”

"Kang Hui?!" I gasped.

Kang Hui, the history books call him Gonggong. The most famous allusion should be in "Huainanzi": "In the past, Gonggong and Zhuan fought for the emperor, angry and untouchable mountains, the pillars of heaven were broken, and the earth was destroyed." The sky tilts to the northwest, so the sun, moon and stars shift; The land is not in the southeast, so the water and dust return. ”

That's right, it's the co-worker who is angry and touches the mountain. "Why did he die here?!"

Hongling bowed her head and said nothing, I suddenly thought of something, took out a burning firewood from the stove as a torch, and entered the palace room again. I approached him very cautiously, and my heart went up and down, and when I saw his appearance clearly, I was relieved.

I thought the man I saw in my dream was him, but it didn't look right.

Hongling chased in again, "Master, please leave here quickly, if the adults know, they will blame you." ”

My lord? Kang Hui died here, does it really have anything to do with Chiyou?

But it is recorded in the historical books that "the Gonggong clan made chaos, and the emperor made Chongli punish him and did not exhaust", that is to say, the emperor asked Chongli, who was Zhurong, to exterminate the Gonggong clan, one was Zhu Rong, who was in charge of fire, and the other was Gonggong, who was in charge of water, which was originally incompatible with water and fire. If according to the "Hai Nei Jing", it is the emperor who wants them to kill each other, so it is understandable that Chongli did not drive Kang Hui to kill them all, but the result of this is that "it is to punish Chongli on the day of Gengyin, and after his brother Wu Hui is Chongli, he will return to Huozheng and Zhurong." ”

However, there is no accurate record of Kang Hui's fate.

I didn't expect to see Kang Hui's body here.

"The Gonggong clan was surrounded and suppressed by the heirs of the Gao Yang clan and the Gao Xin clan, and resisted repeatedly, but had to retreat in defeat again and again. Therefore, Kang came back to beg the adults and wanted to join forces to rebel against the Gao Xin clan. Hongling just explained why Kang Hui was here.

But why did he die here...... "Did the Great Father kill him?" ”

Hongling didn't answer for a long time, and when I was about to ask, she said, "No." The Lord also intended to join forces with the Gonggong Clan, but he was too seriously injured and died here. ”

"Hurt too badly?" I don't understand.

"Doesn't the master remember?" Hongling was a little surprised, "Back then, it was his son Cangshu who sent his son Cangshu to chase down the Gonggong clan, Cangshu and the Gonggong clan had a fierce battle, both sides were injured, and the Gonggong clan took the opportunity to escape, passing through Hun Xi Mountain, so that Cangshu, who was chasing him, met you who were exiled by Sui Que." After that, Cang Shu brought you back to the Fu Ying clan, if it wasn't for Kang Hui to inform the adult, your whereabouts, the adult would never have taken him in, and then Kang Hui refused to accept it, and provoked the Gao Xin clan, only to be crusaded one after another, and the injury became more and more serious, so there was such an end......"

Hun Xi Mountain, where Cangshu and Xiyue meet?

"I want to see the Father, I have important things to tell the Father." If this is really the case, then Chiyou and Hongling now have not only the remnants of Jiuli in their hands, but also the remnants of the Gonggong clan, so if they really want to make trouble...... No, I have to delay as much time as possible, in terms of Xiao Jue's resourcefulness, as long as I delay for some time, he will definitely find out something, maybe he can prevent a catastrophe.

"This ......" Hongling was still embarrassed, but she didn't dare to refuse me again, so she could only say unwillingly, "Okay, then Hongling will send you back first, and then go to report to the adult, and then ask you to come over." ”

...... like, "Okay. ”

I followed Hongling back to the room at the beginning, and Hongling asked me to wait, and then turned around and went out alone.

When I saw that she was unsuspecting, I secretly followed her again. tiptoed through multiple palace rooms, but in the end, Hongling suddenly walked into a palace room, I just wanted to go in, and as soon as I showed my head, I immediately shrank back.

The huge palace room was many times larger than all the palaces in this stone palace, and the fire was bright, and the people of the first palace room, they stood in several columns with their backs to me, and there was a high platform in the front, I hid in the door and quietly looked inside, Hongling lowered her head all the way, and walked up to the high platform respectfully, seeing that she was about to face this side, I withdrew my head and listened carefully.

"My lord, your body has not recovered yet, so you shouldn't be so tired." Hongling said, so the person on the high platform is really Chiyou?!

"What's the matter?" It was a rough voice, the voice was very low and heavy, and according to this voice, the owner of the voice was probably a man of some age, very strong, very burly, but a little weak...... It's just that the sound quality is ......

"My lord, Lord Shioduki wants to see you." Hongling explained my request to him.

"Oh? Tide moon. He lowered his voice, sounding a little sad, as if he was sad because he remembered his dead daughter, "Let her in, I haven't seen her for many years, I miss her too, and it's time to introduce her to the adults." ”

"Yes." Hongling said, and then retreated.

Seeing that the situation was not right, I hurried back, and before Hongling rushed back to the room, I waited in the room first, took a deep breath, and adjusted my breath.

Hongling walked over, "Master, my lord let you pass." ”

I nodded, "yes, okay." ”

This followed Hongling and went there again, Hongling looked back from time to time to see if I was keeping up, this time I finally had the opportunity to slow down, carefully observe the environment I was in now, Hongling thought that I had just arrived here, and I was full of surprises about everything here, so he thoughtfully mentioned the old things to me, "The health of adults has not been very good, since the war, I have been living here all these years to avoid the pursuit of thieves." But adults really care about you and never give up the opportunity to find you. A few years ago, I learned from Kang Huikou, who fled here, that you were brought back to the Fu Ying clan by Cangshu, and the adults originally intended to attack the Fu Ying clan and bring you back, but at that time, the Jiuli people were suppressed and tortured, and they were expelled and had to live under the strict supervision of the people of Kyushu. But I didn't expect that it was only a few years, and the people of the Gao Yang clan couldn't bear the existence of the master, and they forcibly created an unjust case to frame the master, and the master was also forced to die under their frame......"

The more Hongling spoke, the more sad she became, and she lowered her head and wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes.

At this time, we had reached the door, and Hongling stopped and said to me, "Master, go in, your lord is waiting for you at the highest place." ”

She gestured, looking with particular reverence and faith at the high platform with the curtains.

Hongling's meaning, is it for me to walk over by myself? Under the gaze of the "adult" in this palace, walk to the side of the so-called "big father" Chi You of Xiyue?

However, I have some doubts about the people on the high platform of the palace, since Hongling said so, I will go and find out for myself.

Taking a deep breath, I walked inside, following the middle path, deliberately avoiding the people on both sides. walked straight to the bottom of the high platform, his heartbeat was surprisingly fast, I think even anyone who is reincarnated in the next life, who is about to see Chiyou who may come back from the dead, will be in such a state of mind.

But after I stood under the high platform for a while, I didn't hear anything.

What's going on?

"Father?" I tried to call him out loud.

There was no response.

I turned my head to look at Hongling, and there was no one at the door.

But, suddenly, oh my!!

I found something terrifying, creepy......

The "adults" in this palace room are all white skeletons...... My brain buzzed all of a sudden......

What's going on!!

In Hongling's description, shouldn't they all be living people? Why are they just white bones still wearing clothes and not knowing how to stand there?! Not human...... None of the people in this palace are people......

So, so Chi You......

"Xiao Shigetsu, you're finally back......"

Just as I was about to confirm whether Chiyou was like the skeletons in the room, he suddenly spoke, right behind me, behind the curtain of the high platform......

My scalp is numb.

"Are you a human or a ghost!!" I don't know where I got the courage, so I shouted, stepped up to the high platform in three steps and two steps, and lifted the curtain with one hand...... (To be continued.) )
