Chapter 377: Netherworld Ancient Mound

If there is a permanent lamp, it means that someone is far-fetched, and seeing these iron prisons at this moment can fully prove that there were people living here, but looking at those iron prisons have been covered with cobwebs, and there are only skeletons scattered in them, obviously no one has been there for a long time, and the years have been a long time, even so, I can't help but fall into a blind thought, who used to be here, what is it now, why it has become a place of residence for huge ants.

What happened? I remember that Hu Lingshang called this place the Netherworld Cave, and this name also sounds like a person, so I should have asked more clearly, so I could have learned more.

After passing through these barren iron prison areas, I came to a stone staircase, and continued down the stairs, and then I came to a huge corridor, which is obviously also a trace of man-made repair, the stone walls on both sides of the corridor are neatly repaired, and under the candle fire here, and every other distance, there are two stone sculptures on the left and one on the right, like guards guarding here, they look extremely tall, if there is a five or six meters, it is indeed much higher than some dwarf trees.

After passing through the promenade, we came to a courtyard-like place, where there were small bridges and flowing water, and pavilions, and many such statues, each of them masked, wearing armor, but the carved eyes seemed to be very different from people, and the whole courtyard was about three stories high from the top, and at the end of the courtyard, there was a huge stone gate, and there were many architectural structures outside the stone gate, like the extension of the palace.

This extension is composed of some wooden pile main beams and stone steps, the main beam is carved with many exquisite patterns, but the carved are the patterns that I can't recognize, if you say that the dragon carving, the carving of landscapes, and then the beasts and birds, etc., I can recognize some, but this time, the patterns on this have nothing to do with those at all, the carving on it, I can't understand any of them, it is said that it is a tiger wolf jackal leopard, but the carved things are not miniaturized much, if it is said to be a unicorn fairy deer, etc., then there are no scales and no horns, even more unlike, not to mention what is a dragon, snake and phoenix, That's not going to go anywhere.

If I had to say anything like, I would only say that there was only one kind of squirrel that resembled it, but that the squirrel would not be like this, with its teeth bared and its eyes wide open, so I only thought it looked like, but I couldn't be sure, and besides, the worker ant was moving so fast that I couldn't take a closer look.

"What is it?" I couldn't help but wonder.

The workers apparently did not intend to take me into the palace, and walked behind the courtyard and deliberately walked around the palace, where the towering beams were more than ten meters high, and there was a hole in one of the stone walls to the right of it, which was like a dog hole in comparison, but it was big enough for an ordinary person like me, at least if I walked into it myself, it would be more than enough.

Soon the leader of the worker ants had begun to enter the dog hole, and I was about to be carried in, but just before I could go in, suddenly the earth shook, and there was a buzzing sound, and the worker ants began to shake incessantly, and they themselves were unsteady, and they immediately threw me from the state of lifting, and with a bang, I fell on the stone slab of the underground courtyard, defenseless, and the fall was very painful, but fortunately my face did not touch the ground.

After an earthquake, those worker ants went crazy and began to run around, I quickly lay down and hugged my head, because there were a lot of running around, had stepped over my body, fortunately the worker ants are not big, estimated to be about 80 centimeters tall, and the weight is not too heavy, even if I step on me, it is not too painful, but I don't know what happened to them, they suddenly ignored me and threw me here.

Ants are still one-way thinking, they can only take care of one thing, even if their heads are similar to mine, their temperament will not change too much, between saving their lives and taking me back to the nest, they still choose to save their lives decisively.

It didn't take long for the earthquake to stop, but I didn't see those worker ants coming back to me, maybe I forgot my existence, I hurriedly dodged, thinking that I would stay in the green mountains, not afraid of no firewood, rather than being taken in by them to eat, otherwise I would hide first, and then I would quietly go in to find Yunwen by myself when I had the opportunity, so that it was possible for us to live together, otherwise I would be carried in and it would be just a death, if Yunwen was alive, I couldn't help her, wouldn't it be a waste.

Thinking like this, I took advantage of the fact that the soldiers behind me did not catch up, and hurriedly ran in the direction of the palace, just as the iron door was also open, I entered it without much thought, and quietly closed the door, trying to confine my breath and hide my breath.

Ants rely on their antennae to smell the surroundings, so as to identify the surrounding situation, so I can only cover the door, see a copper furnace in front of me, so I grab some soot and smear it on my body temporarily, so as to fully cover up the smell, and then go to the door and listen to the movement outside, sure enough, those ants did not find me again, except for one or two wandering around for a moment, as if suspicious, but soon left, back to the cave.

I sighed, sat down on the ground, rested for a while, and touched the part of myself that was bitten, fortunately it was all skin trauma, and because I had nine turns of Danshui in my body, I basically recovered, so it is not an exaggeration to say that I am not dead now.

"Childe, are you alright?" At this time, a female voice asked.

I was scared and almost jumped up, but when I saw that there was no one around, I suddenly felt that something was wrong here, the evil spirit, I couldn't stay for a long time, so I quickly prepared to leave, and I saw that there was a coffin here, standing in the center, and there was a feng shui array around it, and there was a beast to stop, I remember that I had seen a similar way on the top of the Four Seasons Mountain, could it be that the deceased in this coffin is also the same as the antelope witch, what kind of evil thing?

But no matter who it is, I'm not in the mood to know more about these things now, and now I still need a place to rest for a while, but don't get anything dirty because of this, and there are other branches, so I bowed to the coffin, so I opened the door, but at this moment I heard the girl's voice: "Childe, I saved you, if you don't apologize, you leave in a hurry, isn't it appropriate?" ”

"This eldest sister, I do thank you for letting me hide from you for a while, but I have an urgent matter now, and it is really inconvenient to intersect with you more, if you are offended, I apologize to you here, but please don't pester me, after I am done, I will definitely come back to pay a good visit to you and say goodbye." With that, I immediately went out of the house.

I was out of breath immediately, but as soon as I went out, I saw ants lying down from the mountain wall, as if they smelled me, and began to crawl towards me.

I was startled, and quickly hid back in the palace, and if it caught up with me, the rest of the ants would surely follow, for they were fighting in packs, so I would have taken refuge in vain, but as soon as I came in and closed the door, I saw a woman with a pale face, with a disheveled hair, scrawny, and a floating body, looming, apparently some kind of ghost or ghost.

I was so scared that I wanted to scream, but I still held back, it was better to hit a ghost than to be eaten by ants.

When she saw me like this, she said, "Childe, the matter is done so quickly? ”

"No, no, I'm just hiding here, those ants are chasing again, I'm really sorry, it's a lot of trouble." I said.

She disappeared in a flash, and when she reappeared, she sat on top of the coffin and said, "It's okay, I've been lonely for a long, long time, and now that I meet someone I can talk to, it's too late to be happy, how can I feel bothered?" ”

I politely laughed awkwardly, but I was not in the mood to listen to her story now, and my mind was still on the ant's side, hoping that it would not break in, but the ant did not dare to come near the palace, and walked around the door a few times before leaving, always keeping a distance from this one, and for some reason fearing the place.

Although I wanted to leave her earlier, but the habit of understanding things, I looked at her first, and saw that she was dressed in ancient women's clothes, and she looked like a bit of Shang and Zhou style, if so, it would be too long, but she is really so old, how can she talk to me like this? It's not all Chinese, or it can't be communicated at all.

But it sounded like there was no obstacle for her to talk to me, which couldn't help but remind me of something, Yang Shenmu! After all, this is the only way to have the ability to communicate with all things.
