Chapter 42 The lonely peak is the tomb, and the formation is natural
The scorching sun was in the sky, and the air was full of impetuous atmosphere, and from time to time a hot wind blew and carried a fluctuating cicada chirping.
In the shade of Yunmengze Forest, a gray-black giant wolf, carrying a man and a woman, walked slowly through the forest, the direction of progress was constantly changing, but it went straight to the tomb of Marquis Wu.
Su Duan lazily pillowed on Liu Yan's thighs, and a few rays of sunlight leaked out of the branches and leaves, shining on his face, making him subconsciously squint his eyes slightly, and the white academy uniform on his body had already been dyed dark red by blood.
There are other people's, and there are his own!
"Whew!"
I don't know how long I walked, but when Su Duan was about to fall asleep on the lap of a comfortable beauty, the Shadow Hunter Wolf King "Da Bai" under him suddenly stopped, looked at the scene in front of him, and let out a low roar like a reminder.
"Arrived?" Su Duan's originally confused expression was swept away, and his godless eyes suddenly focused, and one got up, sat up straight, and looked ahead.
This is the end of the giant trees that obscure the sky, and beyond that, a winding and rugged mountain path constantly bends to climb the lone peak, and the clouds and mist on it are entangled, making it impossible to see the end at a glance, adding a bit of mystery and seclusion.
A look of solemnity appeared on Su Duan and Liu Yan's faces.
That lone peak, rising from the ground, is like a giant sword inserted into the sky, at a glance, it is like being stabbed in the eyes by the sharp blade, and the entire mountain peak is filled with an amazing sharp aura.
"There's a problem!" Su Duan and Liu Yan glanced at each other, and they both saw a strong fear in each other's eyes.
As the saying goes: newborn calves are not afraid of tigers.
The more you know, the more you fear. If it were other academy disciples, they would never have any strange expressions on this lonely peak, but Liu Yan, who had received the inheritance of the Holy Soul Sect, could see that it was always different.
A lonely peak, shaped like a sharp sword, is even more permeated with sharp energy, causing the grass and trees on the mountain to be inconspicuous, full of cliffs and broken walls, and bare mountain rocks, which makes people can't help but think of "natural formation"!
Liu Yan exclaimed with an exclamation on his face: "It is worthy of being the mausoleum of the four gods of Great Qin, Shenwu Marquis Qin Wuxian, and it is actually built on such a lonely peak with a natural formation!" ”
"Dabai, go!" Su Duan nodded, raised his hand and patted the head of the Shadow Hunter Wolf King, but the twitch at the corner of his mouth still revealed his endless groove for the name "Da Bai".
Chasing the wind and catching shadows, literally means wanting to catch the wind and shadows, and the metaphor is based on ethereal signs, and by extension, there is no factual basis for using ethereal signs as a basis.
But on the body of the shadow hunting wolf, it is the literal meaning of chasing the wind and catching the shadow, under the instructions of Su Duan, Dabai started with all his strength, only to hear the mountain wind whistling in his ears, the dead branches and leaves of the mountain flying with the wind, and a few breaths of effort to the mountainside.
The scene that was originally obscured by clouds and mist completely appeared in front of the two of them:
There seemed to be an unexpectedly flat place on top of the steep peak, as if a giant had carved it with a carving knife.
There are steep and sharp rocks on it, like a giant sword, which makes people can't help but feel cold all over their bodies at a glance.
"Su Duan, the tops of these rocks seem to be tilting in the same direction!" Liu Yan's delicate face was tightly knit, and she looked solemnly at the top of the lonely peak.
Perhaps, this time, the biggest enemy is not Liu Yang, but this tomb of Marquis Wu!
"Hmm!" Su Duan bowed slightly, clenched Liu Yan's hand to signal that she didn't have to worry too much, and comforted: "You have a divine martial order on you, and I am the royal blood of the Great Qin Dynasty, the Wuhou Tomb is not a danger for the two of us, but an opportunity, and it can even be said that it is not a strange place, yes, home!" ”
Hearing this, Liu Yan's tightly knit brows relaxed slightly, and the solemn look on his face was also somewhat reduced, looking at the end of the mountain path, where it should have been a stone wall, but at this time it collapsed into a passage, from here in the distance, that passage was like a crack on the stone wall, small and imperceptible!
"I suspect that this lone peak under our feet is part of the tomb of the Marquis of Wu, with the ability of the Marquis of Shenwu, it is not a lie to want to do this!" Liu Yan said as he flipped his right hand and took out the "Divine Martial Order" from the "Holy Soul Seal" in his palm.
As soon as it appeared, it glowed with a faint white light, silently confirming Liu Yan's guess!
"What a big deal, if someone tells me now that the jade seal of Daqin's heirloom is not in the tomb of Marquis Wu, I will never believe it!" Su Duan sighed secretly in his heart and jumped off Da Bai's body, "Since we are already close to the entrance, it is a little inappropriate to let Da Bai walk again, and it is still necessary to hide it!" ”
After finishing speaking, he raised his head and walked towards the peak, Liu Yan behind him waved his hand, and the Divine Martial Order that was originally in his hand and the Shadow Hunter Wolf King "Da Bai" beside him suddenly disappeared without a trace, and a few quick steps came to Su Duan's side, looked at him and smiled, and moved forward side by side!
The top of the majestic lonely peak, the higher you go, the more weirdly flat the terrain becomes.
Su Duan stepped on the top of the peak and glanced at the boulder several meters high beside him, on which three big characters were written with sharp marks - "Wuhou Tomb".
"This tombstone is definitely not erected by the Marquis of Shenwu himself, it should be erected by a latecomer or admirer!" Su Duan stroked the bottom side of the word "tomb", feeling the terrifying majesty on it, that feeling was the same as the [potential] of the blood-clothed Marquis Wei Wuji in front of the Holy Soul Sect that day, "Let a Shenhou erect a monument for him, Shenwu Hou himself is not just as simple as it seems!" ”
"Daqin, what a terrifying background it has, or how many historical facts have been tampered with by the founding emperor of Daqian!"
Suppressing the pursuit and desire for the truth in my heart, looking around, a kind of pride of "being at the top of the mountain and seeing the mountains at a glance" emerged from the bottom of my heart.
At a glance, the mountains are undulating, even if there are occasional strange peaks standing in front of this lonely peak, they can only hate on the spot.
Retracting his gaze and carefully looking at the surrounding situation, there were messy footprints everywhere, there were demon beasts and humans, obviously caused by the wave of small beasts that Zhang Yu said.
In addition to this, there are traces of bonfires here and there, showing that people once gathered here for the night.
At last
The freshest footprints are all in front of the passage formed by the collapse of the huge stone wall, messy and orderly.
"They're already in!" Seeing this, Su Duan muttered softly, slightly clenched the hilt of the sword in his hand, walked towards the crack-like passage on the stone wall, looked at the dark passage, and reminded Liu Yan beside him: "Be careful of sneak attacks!" ”
The unknown is always the greatest horror, even if there have been countless academy disciples entering it before, the vigilance in Su Duan's heart has not weakened in the slightest, but has become more dignified, no one knows whether those academy disciples will live or die after entering, and it is impossible to be sure whether someone will take advantage of the darkness to wait for an opportunity to sneak attack!
