Chapter Forty-Eight: The Dragon's Soul
Buzz –
Behind Qin Mu, a wheel of light rotated behind the Buddha's head, and it shot out in all directions, and even the strange mist was swept away by the Buddha's light. Listening to the sound of plopping and plopping, Qin Mu looked around, only to see a dried corpse falling from the air one after another, and there were so many corpses that there was almost no place to put his feet!
In addition to the dried corpses, there are also some skeletons, the muscles have disappeared, only bones remain, but the skeletons are covered with wide clothes, which look like official uniforms.
The fog around him vanished, and he suddenly regained his clarity. But the song continued, only a little farther away from him, still poignant and desolate, with endless sadness.
Qin Mu dissipated his vitality, and the Buddha shadow behind him gradually dispersed.
"How can there be so many corpses hidden in the main hall? These corpses don't look like ordinary people......"
Qin Mu looked at it and frowned slightly, there were too many corpses here, and they were not decomposed, some were not normal. You must know that the corpses of the Yongjiang Dragon King outside have all rotted, and only the skeleton remains, how can the corpses in the hall be preserved until now.
"There is a possibility that these corpses came in after the Great Ruins Cataclysm. Like me and Hu Ling'er, they also found the way to the Yongjiang Dragon Palace, and then entered this main hall. ”
The corners of Qin Mu's eyes jumped, and he looked ahead, there was still a lot of fog in the depths of the hall.
"Something in the mist killed them and turned them into this!"
His scalp was numb, and he clenched his staff. The Quan Qi Luo Zen Staff is worthy of being able to exchange for a treasure of a city, just now he just poured his vitality into the Zen Staff, and he burst out with amazing power.
This time it was the intention of Granny Si to come out with a Zen staff, and Granny Si was very concerned about his safety, in addition to the Zen staff, she also changed into various forms to protect secretly.
"Mother-in-law must be worried about dying these days......"
Qin Mu felt a little guilty in his heart, and then cheered up, and his eyes swept around: "The source of the mist should be in this hall, and the danger is also in the hall! What is it that killed these martial artists who came to explore?"
At that moment, a mist from the depths of the hall rushed to this side, permeating his ankles, and then gradually rising. And the dried corpses on the ground were shrouded in mist, and they slowly twisted their bodies and stood up in a strange posture.
The mist rose higher and higher, gradually disappearing above Qin Mu's head, and in the mist, those dried corpses gradually floated, and as the mist became thicker and thicker, the dried corpses disappeared into the mist, unable to see clearly.
"What the hell is pretending to be a god and making trouble?
Qin Mu walked forward with a Zen staff in his hand, advanced more than ten zhang, the song was close again, Qin Mu raised the Zen staff and paused heavily, the Buddha's light was great, the Buddha's voice was lingering, and a big Buddha figure appeared behind him again, the Buddha's light shone, dispelling the mist, and a dried corpse fell to the ground again.
"Little Bald Donkey......
A voice suddenly sounded in the hall, which was terrifying, but this voice only said one sentence, making Qin Mu and the little fox wonder if they were having auditory hallucinations.
Qin Mu finally saw the source of the mist, there was an ice sculpture in the center of this Dragon Palace, and the mist was emitted from the ice sculpture.
He stepped forward, and saw a young dragon lying there in the ice sculpture, with a broken sword stuck in its chest, which pierced its heart.
And between the dragon pillars in the main hall, there is a huge green dragon slowly swimming in the air, it seems that it has no real body, and it can pass through the dragon pillars.
The song came from the mouth of the green dragon, and the green dragon's gaze kept falling on the frozen young dragon, and never moved away from it.
Its eyes are full of love and sorrow, and its song is so sad, as if it is sad that its child has left it.
It's a dragon soul.
The soul of the dragon.
It may be the Yongjiang Dragon King, or it may be the wife of the Yongjiang Dragon King, it is a mother, and the frozen baby dragon is supposed to be her child.
It must have suffered a catastrophe in the ruins, a catastrophe was coming, and the child was also injured, and was wounded by a mortal sword. She loved her child so much that she froze it and died in the catastrophe, but her soul still roamed the hall, guarding her son, and still humming the children's songs of the dragon clan, hoping to wake up her child.
"Little bald donkey, look this way!"
Suddenly, the voice came again, Qin Mu hurriedly followed the sound and looked, only to see that in addition to this piece of Xuan Ice, there was also a piece of Xuan Ice in the hall. The piece of ice was hidden behind the ice that sealed the young dragon, and the two pieces of ice were connected.
This piece of ice is sealed with an old man in purple clothes and white eyebrows, the clothes on the old man's body should be an official uniform, Tsing Yi 曛裳 (pronunciation: xun, shang), embroidered with nine chapter patterns, gold and jade ornaments around the waist, a sword, wearing a nine-fold crown (pronunciation: jiu, liu, bao, mian), making a gesture of picking things.
He held a black banner in one hand, and with the other he plunged deep into another piece of ice, grasping an egg-sized cyan bead in the ice.
The cyan bead didn't know what it was, but there was a small green dragon coiled in the cyan bead.
"Could it be that this bead has frozen this old gentleman?"
Qin Mu blinked, stepped forward, and carefully looked at the old man who was sealed in the ice, and then he found something strange, as his body moved, the eyes of the old man in the ice were also moving!
"The voice just now is really him!"
Qin Mu was a little frightened, turned his head to look at the dried corpses in the hall, and suddenly thought of a possibility.
This old man in the ice should be the first person to discover the Yongjiang Dragon Palace, he found this bead in the Xuan Ice, and when he wanted to take the bead, he was frozen by the bead.
He thought that he had survived in the ice for a long time, and the reason why he had not died was because he used the black banner in his hand to kill these warriors who had entered the Dragon Palace, and absorbed the essence and blood of these warriors, so these warriors would only appear in a state of dry corpses after they died!
This old man was sealed in the ice, and he was sealed until now, and there should not be much cultivation that can be used, and Qin Mu entered the Dragon Palace with the Gap Abandonment Luo Zen Staff, and with the protection of the Gap Abandonment Luo Zen Staff, he did not die under the strange power of the black flag, and escaped the catastrophe.
"It turned out to be the gap of the old bald donkey of the Great Lei Yin Temple, no wonder it was able to resist the strange power of the mist. ”
The old man in the ice couldn't open his lips, but his Adam's apple vibrated and he made a sound, "You are not a bald donkey of the Great Leiyin Temple, why do you have the old bald donkey's Zen staff?"
Qin Mu said honestly: "This is won by the junior who defeated his disciple. ”
"Winn?"
The old man laughed in his throat: "How can that old bald donkey be willing to gamble and lose? How old are you?"
"I will turn twelve this fall. ”
The old man in purple praised: "At the age of twelve, you can defeat the disciple of the old bald donkey, which is really good." ”
Qin Mu blinked and said, "Why are the seniors frozen here?"
The old man laughed and said, "This naturally has a story, so let's start from the beginning...... Don't go, come back!"
Qin Mu stopped, and was embarrassed: "Senior, I'm in a hurry to go home, and I can't listen to the story." ”
The old man coughed and said, "To make a long story short, I traveled to the ruins with all my disciples, and I accidentally discovered this place and saw many dried corpses, so I knew that it was this dragon ball that killed all the people who entered this place, absorbed the qi and blood of these warriors, and sucked them into dried corpses." This dragon ball absorbs the qi and blood of others in order to extend the life of the young dragon in the ice! As a cultivator, it is naturally incumbent upon me to encounter this kind of thing, so I am ready to accept this dragon ball and prevent it from continuing to be a disaster for future generations. I didn't expect that this bead was the dragon ball of the dragon god, and it was frozen here by this bead! And none of my protégés escaped from here, and they were all absorbed by this dragon ball, and they all renewed the life of this little dragon!"
Hu Ling'er, who was hiding in Qin Mu's arms, quietly raised her head and said in a low voice: "Mu Gongzi, do you believe his story?"
Qin Mu hesitated, his guess was the opposite of the old man, in the story of the old man, it was the dragon mother who saved her son, so he used the dragon ball to harm people, and absorbed the qi and blood of others to continue the life of the little dragon. And the old man supported justice and was plotted by Dragon Ball.
Qin Mu's guess is that the old man was frozen by the dragon pillar, and in order to prolong his life, he used evil methods to harm people and devour the qi and blood of the martial artists who found here.
I have to say that both this speculation and the old man's story are possible. But which is true?
Qin Mu looked around, only to see that the fog around him was coming, and he immediately shook the gap and abandoned the Luo Zen staff, and slammed on the ground!
"That's what I smell!"
The shadow of the Buddha behind him reappeared, and the Sanskrit voice was loud: "All sentient beings have a continuous life and death since the beginning, all of which are made up of ignorance of the true heart of permanent residence, the pure and clear body, and the use of delusions." This is not true, so there is a rotation——, a rotation——, a rotation——, a rotation—"
"The Dharma of Da Lei Yin Temple does have a hand. The old man in the ice admired.
"What do you call the old-timers?" Qin Mu asked.
The old man in the ice said: "The old man Gu is warm, the prince of Yankang is young, and the official is a product." If you can save me and go to Yankang Kingdom, I will ensure that you will enjoy endless glory and wealth!"
