Chapter Seventy-One: The Secret of the Tomb Comes Out
Li Tian was slightly surprised when he saw that she wanted to stop talking, so he took over the conversation and said eloquently: "Hmph! At that time, the elders of the clan agreed that the prophecy was coming, but the princess did not believe it, thinking that it was just an unattainable prophecy. So despite the opposition of the elders, he fled the Black Forest without permission, and decided to go to the Chaos God who would break into the Blood Maple Forest. As a result, the gods didn't meet you, and I bumped into a few of you rookies by mistake, haha, it's really ridiculous! If it weren't for the princess not allowing me to hurt you, I would have let you wait for your soul to return to the west as early as the Sealed Demon Valley. ”
Li Ji and Zhou Babao exclaimed at the same time, "What? The werewolf who attacked us in the Sealed Demon Valley turned out to be you?"
Li Tian's eyebrows revealed a sharp murderous aura, which made people shudder: "Exactly! I was going to let you go, but you actually threw yourself into the net and ran to the Colosseum to stir up trouble, and I was moved to kill at that time." Hey, perhaps, everything is destined to ......"
Speaking of this, he sighed lightly, his fingers lightly stroked the scar on his cheek, his eyes looked into the distance sadly, and he paused before he said slowly: "When the top of the sky was destroyed, the whole clan was frightened, and I never thought that the prophecy of the ancestor of Jiuli would come as promised. So the elders urgently convened a meeting of the whole clan to discuss how to deal with it. At this moment, the elders received a secret fold, and they were all shocked after reading it, as for what was written, except for the nine elders, no one knew, only heard the great elder say, 'The tomb of the ancestors is in the heart of the Blood Maple Forest'.
After deliberation, the elders unanimously decided that Princess Jiuli would lead the elite of the whole clan to explore the ancient tomb, so we searched all the way to the Fusang Sacred Tree, until we met you, and wanted to kill you to prevent future troubles, but the elders thought that your appearance was not accidental, and ordered that you should not be harmed, and invited to visit the tomb together, otherwise I would be kind to you? Hmph, dreaming......"
Zhou Babao's voice was cold, and the corners of his mouth flashed with disdain: "No wonder, I just thought that you rabbit cub would let us go so easily, it turned out that you wanted to use us to open the tomb of Chiyou." It's shameless! When you get your hands on it, the birds are all hidden, the rabbits are dead and the dogs are cooked, you should kill us, right?"
Zhou Babao scolded in his heart, if it weren't for the fact that his skills were far inferior to Li Tian, he would have rushed over and slapped him a few times and taught him how to write dead words.
He thought that this kid was so evil and cunning, would there be any conspiracy, and suddenly a spirit, he couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat on his forehead, and his heart was a little hairy, and said: "We were in danger of being killed by the big devil in Lei Gongmo Cliff, will the mysterious masked man that Shen Tu said just now be him, you must be in a group!"
"Joke, we are werewolves and the Blood Demon Palace have always been incompatible, how can we have anything to do with that vampire demon?"
It turned out that the Jiuli ancient tribe had parted ways since Chiyou was defeated and died, and they did not communicate with each other. The Blood Demon Palace has been secretly coveting the Chiyou skull under the Werewolf Clan's Blood Maple Forest, in a vain attempt to obtain the soul of the Demon Venerable and achieve an ulterior purpose. Therefore, the Blood Demon Palace and the werewolf clan are like fire and water, and the smoke of gunpowder is everywhere.
But for Li Ji and Zhou Babao, two fledgling teenagers, these secret histories of the demon clan have no way of knowing at all, and the Akajiri horse monkey and the god Yu Yu have lived in the world for more than a thousand years, of course, they know everything.
Therefore, the Akajiri Horse Monkey said calmly: "The Blood Demon Palace is located in the extreme west, because of its barren land, dangerous mountains and rivers, full of fierce beasts and birds of prey, many evil miasma poisons, inaccessible to people, it has gone through thousands of years, has not been invaded by foreign enemies, and its power has continued to grow, and it is one of the most rapidly developing demon cult forces in thousands of years. In recent years, the new palace master of the Blood Demon Palace has been even more ambitious, trying in vain to get involved in the Shenzhou Continent and level the heavenly realm, and there are countless demons, monsters, fierce birds and beasts everywhere, among which the notorious four zombie protectors are even more unpredictable, namely: Fire Drought, Water Win Hook, Jin Zhi's Generals, and Earth Houqing, all of which are the incarnations of the emperor, and zombies, immortal, do not enter the six realms and do not enter reincarnation, live on blood, and are creatures abandoned by the world. ”
Everyone heard this, they were all moved, Li Ji had also heard his senior brother say before going down the mountain, the Shenzhou Continent "South Dharma, North Dugu, East Shenlong, West Blood Demon" each formed a faction, among which the Blood Demon Palace was the most powerful, because of its brutality and inhumanity, poisoning the living beings, it became the public enemy of the whole world, and was regarded by the people of the world as a demon cult of the flood beast.
In Lei Gongmo Cliff, he first met the Blood Demon Palace Water Protector Win Gou, who has the power to destroy the world and suppress everything, and the magic is mysterious, which is beyond cognition. It can be seen from this that the strength of the Blood Demon Palace should not be underestimated, and the safety of the human world is increasingly threatened, I believe that the battle of the righteous demons will come sooner or later, but I don't know when this day will come!
Li Ji's eyebrows furrowed tightly, and a question mark formed between his eyebrows: "Why do you werewolf clan want to obtain the soul of Chiyou?"
Li Ruoxi stared at Li Ji and said faintly: "Because we still have human blood, but we have been cursed through the ages since ancient times, so we have become half-human and half-beast, and because of this, we have been discriminated against and even slaughtered by righteous monks. Therefore, our mission is to find the tomb of Chiyou and break the curse, which is also the meaning of the thousand-year-old blood sacrifice, otherwise we will become a werewolf forever, which will not be accepted by the world. ”
After speaking, Li Ruoxi's face sank, and her mind flashed with the elders who repeatedly told her before she set out on the expedition: "Only you can complete the mission of Jiuli through the ages, because you are not only the princess of Jiuli, but also the only bloodline of the Demon Venerable Chiyou......
Since then, she has known that she has a great responsibility and cannot afford to miss it.
After listening to Li Ruoxi and Li Tian's words, everyone gradually sorted out the ins and outs of the matter, especially Li Ji now that everything is understood, he couldn't help but sigh and secretly said: "Probably this is God's arrangement, it's better to be deceived than to deceive people, and you don't have to be too sad! Life is like a play, the audience doesn't care about you, but the role you play." If we hadn't met, maybe I wouldn't be who I am now. Because of a wrong encounter, he made a big fuss in the Colosseum, destroyed the top of the firmament, and then stumbled all the way to the tomb of Chiyou. After a lot of hardships, many times almost died, the taste, the suffering, if not personal experience, absolutely unimaginable, thinking about it is really emotional!"
Now it has finally come to light, and behind every story, there is an unknown secret.
The truth is like an onion, you can only peel it back layer by layer, and every memory will make people cry.
At this time, Zhou Babao walked over and reached out and patted the back of Li Ji's hand, but he didn't know how to persuade him, so he had to sigh silently. But I was unwilling in my heart, and I always felt that I was being played by a monkey, so I was angry in my heart, and kicked up a pile of dust on the ground with my toes, like an angry little rhinoceros, staring at Li Ruoxi and Li Tian fiercely.
Seeing that the dust kicked up by Zhou Babao was scattered everywhere, like silver dust flying, the Akajiri horse monkey glanced at the dust, his face suddenly changed, and he was shocked: "It's not good, the dust on the ground is weird, like the fire powder on the Flame Mountain in the extreme southern wilderness, which can make the fire spread day and night without extinguishing." ”
"Everyone be careful......" Xu Shixi, who was usually silent, also noticed the abnormality, and was about to issue a warning, when a gust of wind suddenly rose around the tomb, and the fire powder on the ground ignited a raging fire.
"On fire......"
The fire suddenly burned everyone in all directions.
Fortunately, Li Ji was wearing a fire cloth, and the flames couldn't get close, so he shouted: "Save people...... quickly"
After speaking, he picked up the seriously injured Shen Di, Xu Shixi supported Yu Lei, and the rest quickly retreated.
Li Ji suddenly saw Xinyan looking at the coffin infatuatedly, but seemed to ignore the fire, and when she saw that the fire was about to burn her dress, she had already faintly smelled a pungent smell of burning, and she couldn't help but feel anxious, and she was about to hold her hand.
Suddenly, the sky was dark, the wind was blowing, and a raging fire came roaring, and everyone secretly said in their hearts that it was not good, and they couldn't avoid it, and they were so frightened that they turned their faces away, for fear that the fire would scorch their faces.
After waiting for half a sound, they didn't see it burned, and even the temperature next to them didn't rise, everyone couldn't help but be surprised, and when they looked at it, they saw that the water god halberd in Zhou Babao's hand exuded a faint mist like ice, and expanded in all directions, gradually forming a layer of ice crystal shield.
Everyone didn't understand why this phenomenon occurred, and Zhou Babao stood on the spot, like a statue, unable to say a word for a long time.
The Agni seemed to be afraid of the Extreme Ice Crystal Shield, and wherever the ice mist went, the Agni was instantly engulfed.
After half a ring, the fire that had been high just now had gradually been extinguished.
"What kind of fire is this, it's coming too quickly......"
"This is an ambush fire, which can fly flames, in the case of a particularly well sealed burial chamber, the gas accumulates and stays for a long time, when the coffin is suddenly opened, if the ambush fire powder encounters air or a trace of restlessness, of course, it will be on point. This is the fire hole often said in tomb robbery, although digging the fire hole is very dangerous, but many gravediggers are very willing to touch the fire hole, and the appearance of the fire hole indicates that the tomb is well preserved. The Akajiri horse monkey said slowly, but it vaguely felt that the ambush was not so simple, but it didn't know what it was, and it couldn't say why.
Although the fire was extinguished, there was still some smoke on the ground, and everyone was choked by the smoke and coughed again and again, and could not breathe.
He looked at Xinyan, who was standing beside him with blank eyes, and his heart was very distressed, and his heart was like a knife: "Senior sister broke into the Blood Maple Forest alone in order to protect herself, but unexpectedly fell into the golden cicada Gu poison, although she has taken Fusang leaves, I don't know if it is effective?"
Now his greatest wish is to heal Xinyan as soon as possible, and then to find an exit to the outside world, hoping to escape from there.
Returning to the kamikaze temple reflected in the green trees, the apricot yellow courtyard walls, the blue-gray temple ridge, and the pale green towering ancient trees, I entered the monastic path with my senior sister to abandon the troubles of the world, bathed in the rose-red morning glow, and wandered in the vast universe.
Thinking about that kind of scene makes people feel comfortable and desirable, there, there is no intrigue and intrigue in the outside world, there is only simplicity and kindness.
In order to avoid the smoke, everyone took a short rest on a platform a little far from the coffin, and just when they sat down, Xinyan suddenly screamed, and beads of sweat broke out on her forehead.
Everyone was startled and stood up, thinking that something had happened.
Li Ji, who had been guarding Xinyan's side, hurriedly shouted, "Senior sister, what's wrong with you?"
Seeing this, the Akajiri Horse Monkey grabbed Li Ji and said, "Don't touch her, it may be that the Fusang Leaf has been catalyzed by the ambush fire, and the Golden Silkworm Gu has been burned in the body at a rapid pace." ”
Hearing this, Li Ji was surprised and delighted, the Fusang leaf had already worked, so he stood aside and watched silently, praying that the senior sister would get better as soon as possible.
After a while, Xinyan's whole body was shrouded in a ball of golden light, her face was pale, and after a while, her body slowly rotated, at first it began to rotate slowly, and finally it accelerated, and white smoke began to rise from the top of her head.
After half a ring, the spinning body stopped, and her pale face gradually reddened, but Xinyan's eyes were closed and she was unconscious.
Li Jizheng didn't know what to do, Li Ruoxi walked over lightly, raised his lotus arm lightly, and a ray of light passed......
After a moment, her slender jade fingers smoothed the folds of her skirt for Xinyan, and the slightly open collar was straightened.
Li Ji frowned and said, "What are you doing?
Li Ruoxi stood up slowly, and coldly threw down a sentence: "Although the Golden Silkworm Gu has turned into ashes, if you don't remove the Gu powder in time, I am afraid that you will die and come back to life." Besides, if a man and a woman are not kissed, how can a man take care of ......"
Her red lips opened slightly, she was slightly drunk, and she stopped talking, and finally shook her head and turned away.
Although Li Ji was very angry, he still chose to believe in her, believing in the people who had given him purity and kindness in this world.
