Volume 3 Snow Mountain Ice Palace Chapter 243 The Emperor's Tomb Strange Story
Baiyang and others deposited their horses in an ancient temple at an altitude of more than 3,000 meters, which is only a very small ancient temple, and it is said that the monks of the large monasteries below would come here for a period of time when they broke the precepts or practiced sincerely.
Bai Yang and the others rode horses and agreed with Guide Yuan that they would still meet here the night after tomorrow at the latest.
After that, a few people followed the Lord of the Red Gate to the south along the mountain.
All of them were strong and strong, and they had not had a strong altitude sickness when they had reached an altitude of more than 5,000 meters before.
But I didn't expect that because of the rush down the mountain, several people all felt pain in their eardrums. Jack, in particular, had to cover his ears tightly with his hands at the end, and several people stopped their horses until Jack felt better before continuing on his way.
Gongga Snow Mountain covers a vast area, and the group drove their horses in a hurry, and it was still at more than ten o'clock in the evening before they arrived at the place.
A moon hung high in the sky, reflecting the surrounding scenery in a hazy light.
Of course, it is impossible to see the scenery from far and near clearly, but at such a general glance, at least in Bai Yang's opinion, there is no place with excellent feng shui in front of him, but there is a dangerous omen.
For example, where they dismounted, there was a long and narrow valley, which was only about two meters wide, but it was bottomless. Although Poplar is not proficient in Feng Shui, he also knows that around this narrow valley, there are places of great evil.
Chen Xiaopang had already asked directly, and said, "Where is the emperor's tomb mentioned by the Red Gate Master? There is no imperial feng shui around here! In my opinion, a radius of several hundred meters is a fierce place!"
"That's right!" the Red Gate Lord nodded, "It is precisely because this radius of hundreds of meters is a fierce place, twenty years ago, I would ignore this place and miss this emperor's tomb!"
"We don't understand what the Red Gate Lord means!" Ding Lingling said, "Could it be that this Emperor Nanzhao deliberately built his tomb in this fierce place?"
"Of course this is impossible!" the Red Gate Master denied, "However, we have searched through the historical materials and learned that there have been at least two large earthquakes in the Gongga Mountains in the past thousand years, but at that time, there were few residents in the Gongga Mountains, so the relevant records are not detailed! However, according to my speculation with several elders in the gate, this narrow valley is likely to have been shaken by a major earthquake! If you look further, if the mountain in front of you is higher, and the valley in front of you does not exist, will it become a treasure of feng shui? ”
Poplar and the others looked far away, although the moonlight was light, they could only see a black mountain in front of them, but as the red gate master said, if there was a high mountain in front of them, and there was no canyon in front of them, then a radius of 100 meters in front of them was really an excellent place for feng shui.
"So what does the Lord of the Red Gate mean is that it is very likely that these two great earthquakes within a thousand years will not only shake out this valley, but also probably collapse the mountains in the distance, causing the auspicious land to become a fierce land?" asked Poplar.
"That's exactly what I meant!" the Red Gate Lord nodded, then stretched out his hand and pointed ahead, "After we came to this conclusion, we crossed this canyon and probed ahead, and finally found the tomb not far ahead!"
When the Red Gate Master said this, he glanced back and forth, left and right, and said, "It's strange, I left a few young disciples here, why can't I see their figures?"
As she spoke, she raised her voice and shouted twice: "Lianlian!
The night was silent, and the voice of the Red Gate Lord came out far away, but there was no response.
Everyone else looked around, and Poplar even walked up to the ravine and looked down.
Naturally, there was nothing to see below, and Poplar shone it down with a flashlight, and then raised his head, and suddenly, he saw a strange scene.
Not far ahead, he saw a few strange birds fluttering.
The bird looked like a crow, but it exuded a blue glow, but its eyes were red, red and blue, and it looked extremely bewitching.
The sight vanished in a flash, and Poplar immediately understood that he had seen a vision again.
He hadn't seen a vision in a long time. For example, in the underground palace of the Celestial Elephant King before, he didn't see the live corpse in advance. And in the tomb of Wang Jiutang, he also failed to see the dead and alive.
But now that he saw this blue bird, does that mean that this blue bird, like a crow, is even more evil than a living corpse and a dead person?
"What's wrong with you, why are you suddenly stunned?" Ding Lingling asked in a whisper beside Bai Yang.
Bai Yang hurriedly smiled on his face, this time was not the time to say that he was hallucinating, so he quickly looked at the Red Gate Lord and said, "I think we should leave the horses here and skip the canyon directly to see!"
"It's okay!" the Red Door Master nodded, "But I always feel that something is wrong, it is impossible for the disciples in my sect to leave without permission before I come back, so everyone be careful!"
"This valley is bottomless, I think it's better for me and the Red Gate Lord to jump over first, and then the others will follow!" Bai Yang added.
Everyone else has no opinion.
The Red Gate Lord was anxious in his heart, and first jumped up, like a fallen leaf blown by the wind, fluttering over the canyon of about two meters, and landed on the opposite side of the canyon silently.
Poplar jumped up with it, and although it was just as easy, when he landed, there was a distinct sound.
Poplar secretly admired in his heart, and turned around and turned on his flashlight to shine on the ground, so that the others could jump over.
The men had already found a place to tie their horses, and then jumped over one after the other.
The canyon is only two meters wide, and several people have practiced kung fu, so naturally they will not be unable to jump.
It's just that except for the Iron Bull who jumped directly on the spot like the Poplar Red Gate Master, everyone else had to have a run to help them jump over.
"This place was once buried by a collapsed mountain above, so we probed down a full twenty meters to reach the top of the tomb!" said the Red Gate Lord, looking in all directions.
Poplar also stood firm and looked closely, and found that the ground in front of him was very uneven, especially in the northwest corner, a very abrupt bulge, as if it was pressing against a large stone slab.
The Lord of the Red Gate had already rushed towards the big stone slab, and exclaimed, "It's so strange, how can there be a big stone slab all of a sudden? The tomb we dug before is here, could it be that someone took advantage of my departure and brought a big stone slab to press down on the tomb?"
As she spoke, she bent down and shook the slate, which was not moving at all, and it was extremely heavy.
Poplar used a flashlight to shine on the slate, and found that the slate was more than two meters wide at its widest point, and it was also one meter five or six at the narrowest point.
"This stone slab is so heavy, it is difficult for a few disciples in my sect to move it here from a distance, but ...... Where have my disciples gone?"
The Red Door Master muttered, his face becoming more and more anxious, and he couldn't help but raise his face again and shout the names of the disciples in her sect twice.
But the valley was empty, and there was still no response.
Ding Lingling shouted at this time, "Come and take a look!"
Several people immediately ran over, but saw Ding Lingling holding a flashlight, shining back and forth on a piece of ground more than one meter long.
There was nothing else on the ground, but a thin layer of ash.
The ash was pale blue, presumably not just such a thin layer before, but because of the strong wind in the mountain, the ash on the surface had been scattered with the wind, and only such a thin layer was left that adhered to the ground.
"What kind of ash is this? Could it be that the disciples of the Red Gate Master lit a fire here to keep warm?"
"Probably not!" Ding Lingling immediately shook her head, "First of all, it's windy here, so I won't choose this place for the fire! Secondly, the fire must be nearly round, but this gray mark is long! Besides, when have you ever seen a blue fire?"
The others felt reasonable, and turned their heads to look at the Red Door Master, but saw that the Red Gate Master had his eyebrows tightened, and was walking to other places to check.
Soon, she was shining a flashlight on the ground and saying, "Here's it too!"
Several people immediately walked up to the Red Gate Lord to take a look, and sure enough, there was also a thin layer of gray marks on the ground, and the gray marks also showed an obvious pale blue color.
"This, this, this...... What the hell is going on?" asked Hongxing, already stammering a little because of surprise.
The Red Gate Lord frowned and said nothing, looked around again, and suddenly picked up a lancet from the ground next to her, even though she had experienced countless storms, she couldn't help but tremble slightly.
Ding Lingling's mind was quick, and she immediately asked, "This lancet, isn't it a weapon of your disciple?"
The Red Gate Lord nodded, held the lancet in one hand, turned his head and said to Poplar and the others, "Please look around and see if you can find other gray marks!"
Several people felt strange in their hearts, and even a little frightened. So much so that they did not dare to act alone, but walked together in two or three.
Hongxing followed the Hongmen master without saying a word, and Ding Lingling walked closer to Baiyang, taking a photo back and forth, and soon, Baiyang also found a blue gray mark.
And next to the blue gray mark, not only a pair of Emei thorns were found, but even a pair of rubber soles that seemed to have been distorted by fire.
Bai Yang couldn't help but glance at Ding Lingling, and a chill welled up in the hearts of both of them.
Because this seems to mean that the ashes on the ground are likely to be left behind by the burning of the human body.
But how is that possible?
What kind of fire will burn the human body to ashes? How high should it be?
Poplar suddenly remembered the illusion he had seen before, and couldn't help but shudder.
But all he saw was a few birds that looked like crows, and although the birds radiated a blue glow and had a pair of strange red eyes, just a few small birds would cause the human body to burn, and burn until there were no bones left?
Poplar dare not imagine!
"I'm stunned again, have you thought of something?" Ding Lingling asked in a low voice.
Poplar took a breath, also lowered his voice, and said, "I just saw ......"
He had only said these four words, and suddenly the sound of horses' hooves came to his ears, and everyone straightened up and looked across the canyon.
