Volume 2 Guangxi Demon City Chapter 93 Zhaoyao Mountain (2)

A baby, with his eyes closed and his hands on his knees, curled up in transparent amber, looks horrible in the light of the fire!

After a moment's pause, Amber flew towards the three men on board.

Without having time to think about it, Pu Zixuan used the power of purification and prepared to shoot out at the flying amber in one fell swoop.

Seeing this, Chen Shuqing hurriedly pushed Pu Zixuan down on the boat, raised his hand and waved the oars, and knocked the amber back into the water galaxy.

Pu Zixuan was puzzled, and said angrily: "Xiao Jiu, what are you doing here?" ”

Chen Shuqing reproached: "How do you know if the baby in there is a human or a ghost?" If you accidentally injure a human being, won't the power of purification be sealed? ”

Pu Zixuan woke up like a dream, and gave a heartfelt thumbs up: "Yes, yes, yes, or you think thoughtfully." He turned around and asked Niu Da: "Didn't you say that this river is safe?" ”

Niu Da shuddered: "I, I, I...... I've been here before, and I've never encountered such a strange thing! ”

"This water galaxy, this baby, what the hell is going on? Even if there are monsters, it's not so evil, is it? Pu Zixuan looked at Chen Shuqing, hoping that she would be well-informed and know the answer.

Without waiting for Chen Shuqing to think, there was a heavier sound at the bottom of the river, one, two, three...... In an instant, dozens of pieces of the same amber wrapped in the baby jumped out of the water, suspended in the air, surrounded the boat, and let out a "woo" cry, like a ghost crying wolf!

There is no stranger scene in the world than this!

Dozens of pieces of amber flew towards the boat, and the three of them waved their oars and knocked the pieces of amber down. It's a pity that Niu Da is average, he was hit again and again, his body was unstable, and he fell into the water galaxy.

Seeing that Niu Da was about to be buried in the Milky Way, saying that it was too late and that time was too fast, Chen Shuqing stretched out a fox tail, grabbed Niu Da by the waist, and pulled him back to the boat.

Niu Da was so frightened that his feet trembled, and he said gratefully: "Thank you!" Thank you, Grandma! ”

One batch of amber was knocked down, and another batch of amber emerged from the water and continued to attack.

Endlessly, endlessly!

was already short of breath by poisonous gas, and this time, everyone felt that disaster was coming, as if as long as they missed it, they would become sacrifices to this tomb at any time.

Pu Zixuan shouted while waving the oars: "It can't go on like this!" We have to have someone rowing! ”

"Blossom Lock Heart Array!"

It was Chen Shuqing again, who made a unique move, stretched out nine fox tails, stretched out towards the stern of the boat, and shot down more than a dozen pieces of amber along the way.

Pu Zixuan said: "It's useless, you will never be able to finish them, you have to leave this place quickly." ”

"Just get out of here!" After speaking, the nine foxtails parted in the shape of petals, rotating at high speed, like propellers, quickly pushing the boat to roar away.

Niu Da exclaimed: "My grandmother, what a god! ”

Pu Zixuan sighed: "I think it's a god! ”

The remaining pile of amber saw the target fly away, and followed the boat closely, but unfortunately it was always one step slower than the boat. In just a few strokes, the land reappeared.

Pu and Chen took off into the air, arriving at the shore one step ahead of the boat, and the oars in their hands also returned to the dendriform under Pu Zixuan's purification technique.

In the rear, an empty boat slowly arrived, crashing lightly into the shore. A pile of amber also disappeared without a trace just as it was about to reach the shore.

"It seems that these ghosts can only haunt the water galaxy." Pu Zixuan shouted, "Niu Da, what should I do next?" Make it clear and let's go! ”

No one answered.

"Niu Da, Niu Da ......" Pu Zixuan looked around, "this ...... What about Niu Da? ”

Chen Shuqing gasped for breath and said in a daze: "What...... Didn't you bring him in? ”

Pu Zixuan shrugged and said, "I thought it was your tail that pulled him up by the way!" This...... He's not going to fall into the river, is he? ”

"If that's the case, then there's no chance he'll survive!"

Pu Zixuan patted his leg and said: "Alas, forget it, anyway, this guy has no use for birds along the way, and it's not a good thing, so let's die." What I want to know more is, what was going on in that scene just now? ”

Chen Shuqing said: "I have been thinking about various reasons. I've heard that in ancient times, mercury was mainly used in alchemy, and some warlocks believed that burying a newborn baby alive in amber and then putting mercury in it for 7749 days could make the elixir of immortality...... During his lifetime, the owner of this tomb also believed in this heresy, which caused the tragedy of a large number of infants, who died with too much resentment to be reincarnated, so they died by the king's side, no man, no demon, no ghost......

"It's so wicked!" Pu Zixuan scolded, "I really want to find the king's bones quickly now, pull them out and dismantle them!" ”

Suddenly, Chen Shuqing covered her abdomen again and squatted down in pain: "Now I dare not use demon power more and more, although the demon power has increased greatly after absorbing the fragments of the 'Mixed Moon Jue', and casting the Flower Lock Heart Array will not exhaust the demon power, but every time I exert my strength, the wound hurts as if it is about to burst." ”

Seeing Chen Shuqing's appearance, Pu Zixuan's heart ached: "Since this is the case, then you have to find the fairy grass quickly." However, it is inconvenient for you and me to use mana, so what should we do if we encounter another predicament ahead? ”

"Try to defend yourself with physical skills." After saying that, the branch in the hands of the two turned into swords again.

After a moment of repair, and when the two of them regained their vitality, they continued to move forward, turned left again, and soon entered a spacious space. I saw that the surrounding walls were extremely neat, and the walls were also carved with rich pictures and texts, and in front of them, a set of copper doors were locked in the distance, blocking the way.

"Is this the middle of the tomb? What about coffins? Pu Zixuan looked around, but he didn't see a single box.

Chen Shuqing said: "It shouldn't be, the hollow-shaped structure I judged must not be wrong." You have to go through that door and turn left twice to reach the place where the coffin is. ”

"Let's go, then." Pu Zixuan walked straight towards the gate.

This is a heavy copper door, helpless door locked, and no keyhole, the only thing that can be called "lock", is the left and right door panels are engraved with a bird's head and a turtle pattern, the two animals are respectively ten heavenly stems, twelve earthly branches of the disc winding, the head points to "A" and "Zi" respectively, the whole set of workmanship is extremely exquisite, as if everything is as new.

After a closer look, Chen Shuqing said: "These two animals are Vermilion Bird and Xuanwu, and together with these two discs, they form a sexagenary lock, and only when the two discs are adjusted to the correct position, the gate will be opened." ”

Pu Zixuan said: "That's simple, we just need to try these more than 100 combinations in order." ”

Chen Shuqing shook her head: "How can it be so simple?" But all princes and generals, the most worrying thing about what happens after death is the destruction of the cemetery, so they will try their best to prevent tomb robbers. If the Water Galaxy is the first line of defense, then this secret room is the second line of defense, and if you stir the disc indiscriminately, I expect that it will definitely trigger the hidden weapon. ”

"If this is the case, there must be corpses all over the field, but this ...... It's not like ah......"

"That only means that the first line of defense, Water Galaxy, has already intercepted all the tomb robbers."

"But that Niu Da said that he had crossed the water galaxy, and said that the difficulty was behind...... Alas, if Niu Da is still here, it would be nice to ask a few more words......"

"Forget it, don't mention him." Chen Shuqing walked around and looked at the murals, "We study these murals and maybe we can find the answer." ”

Pu Zixuan walked in the opposite direction: "Alas, I don't know anything about ancient culture, and I'm most afraid of doing questions, you study slowly, I'll go shopping." ”

Pu Zixuan walked all the way along the wall, and suddenly, his palm touched a moving stone, and he pondered and pushed it, and sure enough, a small piece of the wall rattled into the wall.

"Xiao Jiu, there seems to be a secret door!"

Pu Zixuan was about to turn back, when he suddenly heard a shout of "Wow-", and a figure ran out of the secret door, which frightened Pu Zixuan's soul away!

"Hahaha—do you miss me so much?" The figure that ran out was none other than Niu Da, who had disappeared just now, and made a grimace at Pu Zixuan!

"You...... You're damn scared the hell out of me! Why are you here? I thought you were dead! Pu Zixuan asked in shock.

"As I said, I've been here many times, and there's a secret door near the shore where the water galaxy is close to the shore that leads directly to this place. I just saw you 'kicking' and flying to the shore, and I didn't bother to pay attention to you, so I rushed into the secret door with a 'whoosh'. We'll see you here anyway! ”

"It's great that you're not dead! Tell me quickly, how do you open this door? ”

Niu Da shrugged: "Hahaha - the difficulty I said is here, before I don't know the password, I don't dare to move even if I have ten fucking lives!" I'm counting on you! ”

When Chen Shuqing saw Niu Da reappearing, she also stopped studying the murals, and said as she walked: "I probably understand, this Guangxi belongs to the Lingnan region, and before Qin Shi Huang conquered this place, it belonged to a mixed land of hundreds of Yue, so the words on the wall can't be understood at all." But because of this, it can be speculated that the owner of the cemetery lived before the Qin Dynasty, perhaps the two large kingdoms of Xiou and Luoyue, or other small countries. However, the stems and terrestrial branches on the bronze gate must have been introduced from the Central Plains, so it can be concluded that after Qin Shi Huang's 'southern expedition to the king of Baiyue', a certain leader of the Baiyue land died soon after, and the tomb was built by the Yue people and the Central Plains. ”

Niu Da sighed sincerely: "The girl is really a peerless master! looks like a country, and is both civil and military, I really admire this bandit! ”

Pu Zixuan said: "But the key is that I still don't know the password." ”

"I guess it's the sexagenary branch of the year this leader died." After speaking, Chen Shuqing walked towards the mural again.

Pu Zixuan asked: "Then it's even more troublesome, to know which year he died, you must know who he is, 'King of Baiyue', as the name suggests, there are hundreds of kings, even if my ancestor is reincarnated, I'm afraid it's confusing." ”

Chen Shuqing said with a smile: "Sir is very knowledgeable, and the knowledge of the heavenly and earthly branches has been told to me countless times, you can look at the last one of this mural, the portrait shows a giant falling, and there is a pattern of burning stars painted on the top, guessing that it is to imply the time of the leader's death......"

Niu Da was pleasantly surprised, and couldn't help but interject: "That...... Do you see it all? ”

"I lived alone in the mountains and wilderness for decades, and I often watched the stars at night, and I couldn't be more familiar with the shape of the 28 constellations of Zhou Tian, which was the chamber of the Zhonghai Palace of the Earthly Branch. In the heavenly stem, Binghai belongs to fire, so the room where the fire is lit is either Binghai or Dinghai. ”

"Okay, it's easy now, let's try both." After speaking, Pu Zixuan came to the bronze gate, turned the two discs, and made the heads of Suzaku and Xuanwu aim at "C" and "Hai" respectively.

When everything was in order, the three of them stared closely at the door, expecting a miracle to happen.

Suddenly, at the entrance, a stone door descended from the originally open porch! The secret door on one side also collapsed! And the bronze door with the heaven and earth support locks has never been opened!

An ominous premonition struck him instantly, and Pu Zixuan muttered, "We seem to be completely closed. ”
