Chapter 144: Pixiu Divine Beast
Just when everyone was amazed by the ancient building in front of them, Tianyou suddenly said to Zhou Fan: "Look what those two are" and walked forward, Zhou Fan also motioned for the two girls to follow when he saw this.
After walking for a while, he came to the bottom of the tall ancient building, Zhou Fan looked up at the top of the tower but couldn't see the Baoding of the ancient building at all, and even more than half of the ancient building was almost covered by clouds and mist.
And Tianyou had already stopped in front of the two huge stone statues, looked curiously, and when he saw Zhou Fan and a few people coming, he asked, "Is this the legendary unicorn?" Qian Yu and Qian Ying were not as out of breath as before, they were both curiously looking at the huge stone statues in front of them, Qian Yu also poked them with her hands from time to time, but Zhou Fan looked at the two stone statues that were already covered with moss with a strange face.
"This isn't a unicorn, although it looks like it, it's not, if I'm not mistaken, this thing should be Pixiu, a kind of Rui beast." Zhou Fan pulled over Qian Yu, who was still looking curiously on the side, as if he didn't want her to get close to the stone statue, how shrewd Tianyou and the others saw that Zhou Fan intended to avoid Pixiu, and they no longer observed it closely, and each of them opened a distance from Pixiu.
After Zhou Fan instructed Hao Qianying to take a good look at Qianyu and not let her run around, he came to the Pixiu stone statue and took out the ancient sword and scraped a little gravel powder on the ankle of the stone statue.
Qianyu, who was still curious, suddenly had tears in her eyes, and then yelled at Zhou Fan angrily: "Why are you beating me" Although the expression looked fierce, Qianyu's tears were still rolling, which looked pitiful.
"Alas" Zhou Fan couldn't get angry when he saw her like that, and sighed, and then said: "This time it's your fate, don't move anything after you say it, you are still messing around, if it weren't for this layer of moss, I'm afraid you'd be dead." ”
"What ......" Qian Yu, who originally wanted to complain for a sentence or two, immediately exclaimed in surprise when she heard Zhou Fan's words.
Feng Long looked at Zhou Fan's ugly expression and couldn't help but ask, "What the hell is going on?" ”
Zhou Fan glanced at the towering ancient building, and then looked at the huge Pixiu stone statue standing in front of the ancient building, and pulled Qian Yu and Qianying back a little before saying: "There is (Netherfire Fire) in the Pixiu Stone Statue, if it weren't for the fact that these two Pixiu Stone Statues are exposed to the sun and rain outside all the year round, and the weather in Guangxi is very humid, which makes the stone statue grow a layer of moss, isolating the Netherfire Fire's induction of popularity, otherwise Qianyu has been burned by the Netherfire when he touched the stone statue just now." ”
"I rely on the damn, there is really such a thing" Zimeng was also very surprised and scared when he heard it, and he also retreated a lot of distance after bursting into a thick sentence.
Qianying and Qianyu looked at Zhou Fan and the others were very taboo about the stone statue, and they were even more curious about the Netherfire that Zhou Fan said, and Qianyu was even more taken a hit because of this, "What is this Netherfire Fire" Qianying saw that Zhou Fan and the others were looking at the stone statue in front of them with solemn faces, and couldn't help but be curious and asked.
"These two Pixiu should be the products of the Ming Dynasty, Pixiu is a kind of Rui beast in our ancient mythology is also a fierce beast, before the Han Dynasty, the appearance of Pixiu is a thousand postures, and in the Eastern Han Dynasty, Pixiu is a toad-like, pig's head, snake tail. After the Western Han Dynasty, it was directly a pig's body and a pig's head, but it had double horns, but in the Hongwu era of the Ming Dynasty, Pixiu was related to the unicorn, and then there was a saying that Pixiu was a lin.
Ming Hongwu until the Qing Dynasty Qianlong Pixiu is like the existence of Lin Fei Lin, and to the end of the Qing Dynasty after Guangxu in the Qing Dynasty, Pixiu has become the appearance of a big dog, now the only one that exists is the Pixiu of the Ming Tomb of Nanjing Dynasty, and the other is in the Qing Imperial Palace, the Pixiu behind the nave of the Forbidden City now. ”
After saying that, Zhou Fan also glared at Qianyu fiercely, which made Qianyu, who had been fascinated by Zhou Fan's words, angry again, and snorted coldly at Zhou Fan, "Hehe" Seeing Qianyu playing with his temper, Zhou Fan didn't bother with her, paused and said: "Pixiu, also known as Tianlu, evil spirit, Baijie, a total of four names, is a kind of mythical beast in ancient Chinese Han myths and legends, dragon head, horse body, linjiao, shaped like a lion, gray fur, can fly.
And the Ming Dynasty is the world of the Han Dynasty, after the destruction of the Yuan Dynasty, the Pixiu was directly changed to the appearance of the unicorn, so now just look at these two Pixiu stone statues can know that they are the products of the Ming Dynasty, and the Ming Dynasty and the Qing Dynasty Pixiu are different, the Ming Dynasty's Pixiu is the appearance of the unicorn, but the Qing Dynasty's Pixiu is a bit biased towards the dragon, the Qing Dynasty respects the dragon, and the banner of the Eight Banners Army is also a dragon map. ”
"Hmph, you haven't said why you knocked me for so long." Qian Yu couldn't help but be very angry when she saw that Zhou Fan didn't give her an explanation after saying so much
Zhou Fan came to Qianyu's side and raised his hand to demonstrate to her, Qianyu immediately retracted his head when he saw it, hid behind Qianying and said, "You. . . If you dare to knock me again, I'm not done with you. ”
"Haha" Tianyou and the others looked at Qianyu's appearance and laughed, before Qianyu continued to be mad, Zhou Fan quickly explained the origin of the Netherfire and its power, Qianying and Qianyu listened with two eyes, but seeing that Zhou Fan and the others were so taboo about the Pixiu stone statue, they also believed that Zhou Fan and the others did not lie to them.
Qianyu now also knows why Zhou Fan is so angry, it is worth it for her to suffer like this, if there is no layer of moss to isolate the popularity, the Netherfire will directly pounce on her and directly burn her.
Qianyu was still a little angry: "Hmph, even so, you can't just knock it, what if you knock stupidly." ”
"Okay, Qianyu, don't blame Zhou Fan, who made you so reckless." Qianying saw that Zhou Fan still wanted to teach Qianyu a lesson, so she played a round from it.
Looking at Qianying protecting Qianyu, Zhou Fan had no choice but to give up, but still said: "I hope you must not move after you go in, especially Qianyu, I don't want the two of you to have anything to do, and once you go inside, there are many sloppy organs." After speaking, Zhou Fan no longer looked at the two women, and walked directly to Tianyou and a few people to discuss the countermeasures to enter.
"Hmph, what's the big deal, just move, what's the drop, what's the drop" Seeing Zhou Fan's arrogant look, Qianyu became angry and muttered quietly to Zhou Fan's back.
"Hehe, can't you settle down?" Qianying looked at Qianyu's appearance and couldn't cry or laugh, but she didn't know what to say about her.
But soon, Zhou Fan returned to the two of them again, looked at Lie Hou and said, "You guys bring this." After speaking, he handed each of the two women a pair of rubber gloves, and after seeing them bring them, he said: "The Nether Fire will follow the popularity, and the rubber gloves can isolate everything, and you will inevitably run into some buildings when you go in after a while, so it will be safer to bring them." ”
"Let's go." After finishing the instructions, Zhou Fan pulled Qianying and Qianyu to the bottom of the ancient building, looking at the strange bronze iron chains, and his expression hesitated.
"Let's go up first." Feng Long glanced at Zhou Fan and no longer wasted time, took out the climbing rope and equipment, and planned to climb the ancient building.
"Wait" Zhou Fan saw that Feng Long and the two had already moved, and hurriedly called out to them and said: "You bring signal guns, I'm worried that those foxes will be on it, that kind of thing is afraid of violent light, although it is daytime now, they may also hide somewhere." ”
"Hmm" Feng Long agreed and took out a flare gun and hung it on his waist without looking back, and climbed onto the rock wall without looking back, while kicking the eaves outside the ancient building, while stepping towards the rock wall with strength, and after a while, he saw that the two of them arrived at the Zhongqiankun Tianquan Star Position, and there was exactly an entrance there, and it was also the only entrance to the entire ancient building, but the entrance was wrapped in a huge bronze iron chain, and only a gap the size of a person could get into it from anywhere, Zhou Fan was also a lot relieved after seeing that the two of them were safe.
As soon as the two of them went up, they immediately threw down the prepared rope, and when Tianyou saw this, he immediately stepped forward to catch the rope and shouted to Zhou Fan: "Okay, you guys come here." ”
Zhou Fan took a deep breath and took the two girls to Tianyou's side: "Tianyou, you go up first, I'm worried that Feng Long and Zi Meng won't be able to pull them, so it's safer to go up with one more person." ”
Tianyou also felt right when he heard it, and without saying a word, he turned over and grabbed the rope and climbed up, because Tianyou had been a soldier in the army before, and this kind of suspended climbing rope was trivial to him.
"Qianying, you go up first, but be careful, you just need to hold on to the rope and don't move, as soon as you move, it will bring more pressure to them, manpower is not like a machine to pull a suspended person up is equal to the weight of three people, you must be careful." After speaking, Zhou Fan took the rope dropped by Tianyou and tied it around Qianying's waist.
"yes, got it." Seeing Zhou Fan's worried appearance, Qianying sweetly agreed, and her body tensed and clutched the rope.
Tianyou and the three of them saw Zhou Fan signaling at the bottom, so they began to pull up the rope hard, pulling things up from a high place was already very difficult, and the three of them were already tired and sweating until they pulled Qianying up, but fortunately, there was no accident halfway, Zhou Fan also pinched a sweat for Qianying at the bottom, after all, it is impossible for the two girls to climb up such a steep mountain wall, so they can only take this method.
