Chapter 333: The Catacombs
In the bookstore, Tao still wielded his sword.
The thick ground was like soft mud, easily pierced by her sword.
After cutting it repeatedly, the soil also turned into lumps, which were constantly taken out by everyone.
The bookstore was cleared of large swaths of dirt.
"There's a brick down there!"
As Tao still swung her sword again, her voice was also soft.
This is not the same material as clay.
This may have been digging into some kind of underground structure.
"Could it be that there is an ancient tomb down there?" Gongsun Juqi said.
"Then let's be careful," Tao still said cautiously, "If the cemetery is nourished by the aura, I'm afraid that some strange things will be generated." ”
At this time, the hole dug by the bookstore was three meters deep, and it was also on the edge of touching the source of the aura.
Tao still looked at Gongsun Ju again and again, and then looked at Li Hongru and Gongsun Yun.
The four of them were vigilant, but there was little fear.
Tao is still strong enough to reach the level of a top first-class martial artist in the Tang Dynasty, and Gongsun Ju is also a literati in actual combat.
Although Li Hongru's strength is weaker, he can take everything out.
Gongsun Yun is close to the strength of martial arts, and it is difficult to constitute a burden.
"I'm going to cut it," Tao still said.
"I'll light the fire," Gongsun said.
"I'll take the green bricks," Li Hongru also nodded.
"I locked the door of the bookstore and locked the windows, so as long as there is no movement, it should be difficult to hear outside."
Gongsun Yun carried the sword and took a talisman to avoid colliding with evil spirits and pasted it in the palm of his hand.
Everyone is simple to match, but also to be prepared.
Tao still looked at it, and slashed it with a sword in his hand.
Immediately, her right hand trembled for a while, and the sword in her hand suddenly withdrew.
Everyone saw that the lightning flickered on the sword, and the continuous crackling of the connection lasted for a while before it subsided.
When Tao was still martial and powerful, dozens of tiny holes had already been pierced on Luoying's sword.
Faintly, there seemed to be lightning roaring under the green bricks, and there was water flowing.
"It's a formation!"
Gongsun raised his gaze and stared.
"Underground formation protection, could it be that this is something amazing about the tomb of a big man?"
Maybe it's the age, or maybe the construction is negligent, so that the aura guided by this crypt has leaked, and the formation has been incomplete.
And the blow of the thunder induced something.
Gongsun Ju was not in a hurry at this time, and let the underground lightning flow.
Any formation operation requires energy, and after a long time, it will be deflated, and it will be powerless.
Green bricks are a good insulating material, except that Tao is still paralyzed, and the people above have no effect at this time.
"I didn't expect that if you step on the ground under your feet, you can step out of a big tomb!"
Tao still adjusted two breaths, and only then did he return his body to normal.
Entering the seventh rank of martial arts gave her a lot of confidence, but the reality also came to the head.
If she is very cautious and careful, she is likely to suffer a lot of losses if she ventures in.
Tao still guarded his mind to the maximum, and even called back everyone on the side.
When the sound died down under the green bricks, her sword fell again.
The bricks were cut open like tofu and then fell down again.
"There's an empty nest down there, but I don't know where the entrance is!"
When he moved his sword again, there was no lightning at this time.
Tao still just wanted to jump down, but Gongsun Ju immediately pulled her, and Gongsun raised his palm and fell down with a little fire.
"If you encounter lightning that may remain, your primordial power must be recovered!"
Gongsun Ju urged the power of the Yuan Shen to explore the way, which was much safer than Tao still relying on his body to search.
But the formation in the tomb also made Tao still a little worried.
"Don't worry, the Nanming Ding Fire taught by the teacher belongs to the Yin Fire, even if it is damaged by lightning, it will not be much injured" Gongsun Ju smiled and said: "What's more, we still have the help of aura at this time, and the injury can be repaired quickly!" ”
After Gongsun Ju finished speaking, his face immediately fell into a serious look, and he continued to rely on Nanming Dinghuo to wander around and investigate.
"Mercury becomes a river, and the yin and thunder guard, this is the royal means."
He was clearly seeing something, with a gaze in his eyes, constantly observing left and right.
"Organs, many, many mechanisms!"
Gongsun raised his mouth and muttered from time to time.
"I've found the main entrance, and it's engraved with the words Death to the Trespasser!"
"There are corpses on the ground, which appear to be those of craftsmen who built the mausoleum."
"There is an altar, and there are hundreds of palace maids being sacrificed on the altar!"
"I saw the five baht coins from the previous dynasty spilled on the ground, taking on the shape of the Big Dipper!"
"There is a copper coffin in the center of the tomb."
"There are eight figurines like stars guarding the vicinity, and some figurines seem to be 'awake', and he looks at me......"
Gongsun Ju's voice was orderly, and when he was discovered by the guards in the tomb, he was very alert to cut off the Yuan Shen Investigation.
"What are figurines? Is it a living person? ”
Gongsun Yun was at the farthest distance, she listened carefully, but she didn't understand, and immediately asked.
"I used to be a living person," Gongsun Ju said solemnly: "It's just that a special way was used to leave the body supply drive, and turned into a creature like a living zombie, and it also has the strength of several percent before death." ”
"That's a cruel refining method" Tao still frowned and said: "It is to train the living into corpses, and then wrap them in clay and burn them into figurines, and those with low strength are not qualified enough, and I don't know who the names of those figurines are?" ”
"If there is a five-baht coin from the previous dynasty, it must be left by the previous dynasty, and those who can build the tomb under Luoyang City are only limited," Li Hongru guessed.
"I haven't found the source of the aura in the tomb, I'm afraid that there is more to this tomb, and I need to explore it carefully."
"We need to find something to restrain the figurines, so that we don't have trouble fighting."
Everyone whispered secretly, and after a few sounds, Tao still went out to buy dog blood.
Li Hongru went out to repair the roof of the bookstore.
Gongsun raised his pen and drew a few talismans, and took out some of his own protective and life-saving things.
"Uncle Li, what is considered an idiot, can't you practice the fourth layer of scriptures if you don't quit being stupid?"
"Ignorance means stupidity and lack of wisdom," Li Hongru explained: "This does not mean that you need to be very intelligent and intelligent, but you need to understand the principles of cause and effect, mental nature, dependent origination, etc. ”
With the help of the effect of aura, Gongsun Yun's cultivation speed is extremely fast.
For example, when she is age, she thinks less about many things, and there are fewer places where she needs to practice the "Human Immortal Immortal Sutra".
But the fourth layer of the Sutra deals with the doctrine of cause and effect in Buddhism.
Everything has a cause, and it must lead to a result.
It's a natural concept.
When you have more life experiences, you will understand.
Some people who complain and can't see why they have fallen to the point where they don't believe in it are those who can't understand cause and effect.
When Li Hongru repaired the tiles, he also casually gave some examples.
This made Gongsun Yun a little confused.
The difficulty of cultivating in the early stage of "The Sutra of Immortal Immortality" is not too great, but under the advanced levels, the difficulty will become stronger and stronger.
Only when the heart is clear and many things can be let go, it is possible to realize and cultivate.
It is difficult for people to quit seven emotions and six desires for a long time.
Li Hongru relied on Taiwu to cultivate, while Gongsun Yun relied on aura to take the road of rapid cultivation, as long as the mind was maintained in a short period of time to meet the standard, he could carry out customs clearance cultivation.
She was nodded by Li Hongru, and immediately sat on the stool and thought for a while.
Everything is still covered by Tao and Gongsun Ju, even Li Hongru only has a job of repairing the roof, not to mention Gongsun Yun.
Gongsun Yun thought about it for a while from time to time, and from time to time he theorized with Li Hongru.
When Tao still came back with half a bucket of dog blood, Gongsun Ju immediately dipped a brush in dog blood and drew on the Fu seal.
"The effect of my talisman seal is not good, but the figurines and evil things seem to be afraid of dog blood, so we can keep peace by sticking more dog blood talismans."
A bunch of yellow paper talismans dipped in dog blood were pasted on his body, and Li Hongru only felt that he seemed to have become some kind of sealed zombie.
After many preparations were completed, Tao still picked up the green bricks with his long sword and jumped into the passage of the tomb first.
