Chapter 388: Tomb of the Living Dead
However, Helan Xue pretended to be calm on the surface, and said to Zuo Yang without looking back: "Are you ready?" ”
"Alright."
Zuo Yang answered.
"Huh!"
Helan Xue didn't say any more nonsense, and jumped off the cliff with a slight force under her feet.
It's also magical, Zuo Yang just hugged He Lanxue, his feet didn't move at all, and he jumped up with Helan Xue unconsciously, as if his body had been handed over to Helan Xue for trusteeship, and the two were completely one.
And instead of falling quickly under the influence of gravity, her outstretched arms were like gliders, and the two circled and glided in a spiral trajectory and flew steadily, flying through the clouds and mist, little by little towards the depths of the cliff, this feeling was so pleasant......
A moment later.
Below the clouds, Zuo Yang saw a small lake with clear turquoise.
On the shore of the lake, a small but familiar figure was running wildly, as if chasing his lost youth, and at the same time, his mouth was also letting out a cheerful howl: "Ahh......h Oops...... Pain and pain...... Help ......"
This person is none other than Dongfang Yu, who "jumped" down one step ahead of them.
"This ......"
Zuo Yang was surprised in his heart, and said that he didn't understand why Dongfang Yu was so happy, he was obviously the only one in this canyon, what was the ghost called, could it be that the ripples in the small lake below were not water, but sulfuric acid, and this thing was burning?
As the height of the two fell further.
"Buzz...... Buzz ......"
In addition to Dongfang Yu's call, Zuo Yang heard what looked like a swarm of insects shaking their wings.
Zuo Yang looked at the subtleties, and only then did he see that Dongfang Yu below was being ...... That's supposed to be a bee, right? The appearance is undoubtedly that of a bee, but it is larger than a real-life bee, about the size of an adult's thumb...... Dongfang Yu was chased by such a swarm of huge bees.
Of course, this taste is not good, Zuo Yang is already on Dongfang Yu's face, hands, and neck...... In short, large lumps of varying numbers were seen in almost all exposed areas.
Dongfang Yu's face, which originally looked upright and handsome, has turned into a pig-headed third that people can't look at directly, Zuo Yang even doubted that Long Ziyan of the Tomb Sect would directly propose to him to break up when he saw this guy's appearance, and there was no need to continue the so-called "oath-breaking" test......
However, Dongfang Yu is not stupid, he has been running towards the small lake.
Finally.
With a "poof", Dongfang Yu finally came to the edge of the small lake, and without thinking about it, a fierce man plunged in.
But the intelligence of the bees was also amazing, and they followed, and although they had to make a sharp turn back when they encountered the lake, they did not fly away, but circled around the ripples on the surface of the lake, and did not seem to intend to let the poor fellow go.
Meanwhile.
"Don't worry, this is the unique jade bee of the Tomb Sect, they guard this valley all the year round, they are very psychic, the disciples of the Tomb Sect can control them, as long as you are with me, they will not sting you easily."
Helan Xue saw that Zuo Yang didn't speak for a long time, just stared at Dongfang Yu with a sympathetic expression, so she explained in a timely manner, "As for this guy, this is a lesson he should bear, at this level, as long as he takes the jade bee syrup in time to detoxify, he shouldn't die." ”
"I see."
Zuo Yang nodded, only to feel a fragrance wafting from behind Helan Xue's ears to his nose, and immediately his heart couldn't help but beat a few times, to be honest, this pair's light skill really made him a little uncomfortable.
After all, there are differences between men and women, so he basically stiffens his body all the time, just afraid that he will accidentally touch the place where he shouldn't be touched, which would be too rude.
"Hmmm......"
Helan Xue didn't know why she made a nasal voice, so she stopped talking.
After a while, the two of them landed smoothly on the shore of the lake, those jade bees were really very psychic, and they didn't come when they saw the two of them, but they still kept circling around the place where Dongfang Yu jumped into the water, as if they were very persistent waiting for him to come out, and they were waiting to teach him some more lessons.
“……”
After a while, a small sharp tip appeared on the surface of the lake that was finally calm, but Dongfang Yu couldn't hold it back, and secretly poked his nose out of the water to breathe.
"Buzz ......"
Those jade bees were also very alert, and when they saw this scene, a jade bee immediately rushed up and slammed Dongfang Yu's nose.
"Oops! Puff puff! cough cough cough ......"
Dongfang Yu was in pain for a while, and immediately screamed and struggled, but instead of changing his qi, he was choked by the lake water fiercely, and had no choice but to float in the lake.
"Buzz ......"
Seeing this, the group of jade bees immediately rushed down and attacked them in groups.
Just imagine, Dongfang Yu, as the eldest son of the Oriental family, although his martial arts are not very good, but he also has a magic weapon in his hand, and he has been embarrassed by this group of jade bees to such an extent, if he changes to someone else, I am afraid that the end will only be worse, right?
Even Zuo Yang felt that if he continued like this, this unlucky guy might not even be able to enter the Tomb Sect, and he would be stung to death by this group of jade bees.
Fortunately, Helan Xue is not a person without measure.
"Go for it......"
Seeing that Dongfang Yu had been almost messed up, Helan Xue finally waved her jade arm lightly and said softly.
"Buzz ......"
Those jade bees who were rushing towards Dongfang Yu in groups immediately understood her words, and actually stopped their momentum in the air, and then circled around Dongfang Yu for a while, even if Dongfang City was here, he was afraid that he would not recognize this own son, and then slowly flew towards the steep cliff.
If you follow the direction they flew, you can see that there are several beehives larger than a human head hanging high on the cliff, and there are artificial "small roofs" above the hives to protect them from the wind and rain, presumably this is the work of the Tomb Sect.
"Ahem, ahem...... Whew......"
Dongfang Yu was finally saved, swam to the shore with difficulty, and was tired lying on a stone panting, the face that was no longer formed was no longer expressionless, and the bag on his nose that had just been stung was big and red, looking like a clown in a Western circus.
But this "clown" kept rolling his eyes, and kept looking at Helan Xue with a resentful look.
"I was kind enough to save you, but you seem to be resentful of me, it seems that you have not learned a deep enough lesson."
Helan Xue is not easy to bully, seeing that this guy kept gouging out her eyes, she immediately sneered, and made a gesture to call the group of jade bees.
"No, no, no! Girl, you misunderstood, how dare I resent you, it's too late for me to thank you. ”
Dongfang Yu was so frightened that he hurriedly begged for mercy, he was really empty, although his divine weapon was powerful, but he was really powerless to deal with a small thing like the jade bee.
"Hmph, that's pretty much it."
Seeing his appearance, Helan Xue smiled with relief, then threw a small porcelain bottle over, and said, "This is the jade bee syrup unique to the Tomb Sect, you take it first, you can receive the pain of bee venom, but these swollen bags will slowly subside." ”
"Thank you, girl, he will be rewarded one day."
Dongfang Yu hurriedly caught it, and while pouring the jade bee syrup into his mouth, he thanked him vaguely.
"That's not necessary, you just need to do your best to deal with the test, and not disappointing my senior sister is the greatest thank you to me."
Helan Xue rolled her eyes and said, until now she still doesn't look down on this negative man who can only blindly escape, if it weren't for Zuo Yang's persecution, I'm afraid he wouldn't come.
"Certainly, since I'm here, I should do my best."
Dongfang Yu replied again and again.
……
After a while, when Dongfang Yu was barely able to move, Helan Xue brought the two of them to a large earthen bag built on the other side of the lake.
In front of the large earthen bag, a huge stone tablet was erected, and the stone tablet had four blood-red characters from top to bottom - "Tomb of the Living Dead", not some "Tomb School".
"According to the head of the sect, our ancient tomb sect originated in the Song Dynasty and has a great relationship with the Quanzhen Sect on the mountain."
It seemed to see Zuo Yang's doubts, and Helan Xue took the initiative to introduce it, "There was a great evil man in the Quanzhen Sect back then, he raised troops to resist the gold for the people of the world to save their lives, and built this stone tomb to store military rations and materials. ”
"What kind of villain is this?"
After listening to Helan Xue's introduction, Zuo Yang felt even more strange in his heart, how can this person be a national hero?
"That's it, what evil is this person, girl, you can't be wrong, right?"
Dongfang Yu also said with a puzzled face.
"Although this person is right about the people of the world, he has a strange woman who has a deep affection for him, and this woman is the ancestor of the Tomb Sect, do you think he is a great villain?"
Helan Xue glanced at Dongfang Yu and asked rhetorically.
"Uh......"
Dongfang Yu immediately closed his mouth.
“……”
Zuo Yang also wisely chose not to speak.
"In the past, the Tomb Sect has never allowed men to step into half a step, but then there was a head of the sect who made an exception to accept a man as an apprentice because of necessity, and the two eventually became the envy of others, and this rule was broken, otherwise the two of you would have to wait here."
Helan Xue said again, "But Rao is like this, after entering the ancient tomb, you still need to abide by the rules of the ancient tomb sect, you can do whatever I ask you to do, otherwise the head of the sect will definitely blame, you know?" ”
While speaking, Helan Xue had already stretched out her jade finger and groped on the huge stone tablet, and she didn't know what she had done, and the sound of machine spring transmission came from the ground.
A moment later.
With the east of the earth, the stone monument has slowly sunk into the ground, and a straight down stone staircase is presented in front of the three of them.
"Come with me."
Helan Xue greeted and walked in first.
Zuo Yang and Dongfang Yu followed, and after going down, the stone tablet slowly rose up again, as if nothing had happened.
In this way, the group of three people went down the stone steps, and first came to an independent wall like the "shadow wall" in the door of the Oriental family.
However, the difference is that the carving on the wall is not a sacred beast or auspicious rui, but a portrait of a human being.
The portrait depicts a man, wearing a wide robe, holding a long sword standing alone, and also with thick eyebrows and big eyes, Yu Xuanang looks quite in line with the standards of a decent person, but I don't know what the identity of this person is, he can actually hang at the door of the ancient tomb sect, this status is only comparable to the door god, right?
Outcome.
"Phew!"
Walking in front of this portrait, instead of kneeling down, Helan Xue spit three mouthfuls of saliva at the portrait with a disgusted face!?
"This ......"
Zuo Yang was a little incomprehensible again.
"This is the portrait of that great villain, the rules of the Tomb Sect, whether it is a disciple of our Tomb Sect or not, when entering and leaving the Tomb Sect, you must spit on him a few times."
Before he could ask, Helan Xue had already turned around and said, "You two should also come over and spit a few mouthfuls of spit, we touched the mechanism when we came in just now, and the head of the sect already knew that I was back, so don't make her wait for a long time." ”
"Uh...... Girl, I suddenly have a question, I don't know whether to ask or not. ”
Dongfang Yu asked with a strange expression.
"What's the doubt?"
He Lanxue asked.
"If you don't come back with the girl to participate in the test, will there be a portrait of the lower here in the future for the people of the Tomb Sect to spurn?"
Dongfang Yu hesitated for a moment, and finally asked thoughtfully.
"Poof!"
As soon as he heard this, Zuo Yang couldn't help but burst out laughing at first, he really didn't expect this Dongfang Yu to have such a big face, and he actually wanted to be compared with the man who the Tomb Sect Patriarch hated because of love.
"What do you think?"
Helan Xue squinted with empty eyes.
"Uh......"
Looking at Zuo Yang, and then at Helan Xue, Dongfang Yu reacted for a moment, and finally had a little self-knowledge, and hurriedly said with an embarrassed face, "It's a lie, I just ask Engong and the girl not to mention what I just said again......"
……
A short walk inside, the three of them entered a large hall.
This hall is strange...... The strange thing is not how unconventional the style is, but that some of the designs, and even many of the details in the corners and corners, are very similar to the main hall of the Shifting Flower Palace where Zuo Yang is located, and even for a moment, Zuo Yang almost thought that he was back in the Shifting Flower Palace.
"What's going on......"
Although Zuo Yang didn't understand the reason, he had already begun to wonder if the Shifting Flower Palace had some connection with the Tomb Sect that he didn't know about.
After all, the chance of something like an architectural style colliding with a shirt is too small, and whether it is the Tomb School or the Shifting Flower Palace, it is not something that ordinary people can enter and exit if they want to, so the possibility of the architectural style being imitated is also extremely small, unless there is some kind of interaction between the two.
