Chapter 300: The Eight Ancient Gods
A bluestone road stretches into the distance.
The mountain fog is so thick that it is difficult to discern what the scenery is in the distance.
After a quick glance, I couldn't help but feel strange about the beast-headed figures on both sides, so I asked Bai Zedao: "Do these represent the twelve righteous gods of the Heavenly Dao?" ”
However, Bai Ze shook his head, and he said: "I don't know this, although I know the existence of this place, but I have never had the ability to break the illusion just now, so this is the first time I have entered this place!" As for the face of the twelve righteous gods of the Heavenly Dao, I have also heard of the gods of the zodiac, but what the truth is, the world knows very little, and I naturally don't know! ”
Bai Ze didn't know, I naturally set my eyes on Niu Rhubarb, except for Bai Ze here, he was the oldest, but unfortunately, he also shook his head and said: "In the final analysis, I am just the master of the mountain god, how can I have the opportunity to contact the heavenly god." However, if this is really a statue of the Heavenly Dao God, it will be a little terrifying. ”
"The statues on both sides of the tomb road naturally mean to guard the tomb. These statues are the gods of the tomb, let the twelve gods of heaven guard the tomb for themselves, it is hard to imagine what kind of person the owner of the tomb is! ”
Niu Rhubarb said, and couldn't help but sigh with emotion.
I thought for a moment and asked, "Grandpa Niu, above the nine heavens, in addition to the twelve righteous gods of the Heavenly Dao, what other gods are above them?" ”
"Of course, there is."
Niu Da Huang paused, as if he was thinking, and then, he continued: "Legend has it that above the twelve righteous gods of the Heavenly Dao, there are eight ancient gods. ”
"Who are these eight gods?" I asked again, the first time I heard about this, I was a little curious.
"The eight ancient gods of the Heavenly Dao, their identities are extremely secretive, and I don't know exactly which of the eight gods there are. It is estimated that only your grandfather, or a big man of the level of Emperor Dongyue, knows this. Of course, I've heard some of them, not all, but a few of them still know. ”
After Niu Rhubarb finished speaking, I immediately asked, "Which ones?" ”
"There are ancient demon gods, ancient demon gods, ancient witch gods, ancient Qihuang gods, and I don't know anything else. You must have heard of the name of the ancient demon god, which is the ancestor of the demon clan, Nuwa, and Wazu. The Demon God, from the abyss of the Demon Domain, however, I don't know what his name is, it is said that he is the father of the Six-Fingered Qin Demon and the Demon Lord. The ancient witch god, from the Bashu region, is good at the art of wind and rain. The ancient Qi Huang God is the god who is in charge of the world's medical skills, and some people say that the divine doctor Hua Tuo was his reincarnation, of course, this is just a guess in the world, and it cannot be verified in any way. ”
Niu Rhubarb said this, but Bai Ze continued: "As far as I know, there is also an ancient god of war, named Xingtian. With milk as the purpose and the umbilicus as the mouth, it is the first combat force of the Heavenly Dao. ”
"In addition to them, the other three are the Ancient Dragon God, the Ancient Phoenix God, and the Ancient Qilin God. The ancient dragon god is the ancestral dragon, and the phoenix god is the ancestor phoenix, and the ancient unicorn god is the ancestor unicorn. After the Lich War, they were all subsumed under the Heavenly Dao and became one of the Eight Ancient Gods of the Heavenly Dao. ”
After all that is said and done.
I asked, "That means that these eight ancient gods are all qualified to let the twelve righteous gods of the Heavenly Dao guard their tombs, right?" ”
When I asked this, Niu Rhubarb and Bai Ze shook their heads at the same time.
Bai Ze said directly: "Although the status of the eight ancient gods is higher than that of the twelve righteous gods, under the Heavenly Dao system, the twelve righteous gods are the real ones in power, in charge of almost all things under the Heavenly Dao. Even before the Eight Ancient Gods became gods, when the Twelve Heavenly Dao Righteous Gods did not ascend to the Nine Heavens, it was absolutely impossible for the Twelve Heavenly Dao Righteous Gods to guard the tombs of the Eight Ancient Gods. However, it is surprising that such a tomb appeared here! ”
"If the twelve gods of heaven are really the gods of the zodiac, then the identity of the original owner of this tomb is very terrifying. However, it is not excluded that the gods of the zodiac are not the twelve gods of the Heavenly Dao, after all, under the nine heavens, few people can determine the true identity of the twelve righteous gods of the heavenly way. ”
Naturally, we walked and talked about these statues on both sides of Shinto.
Niu Rhubarb also mentioned that at the beginning, my grandfather imprisoned him in this tomb of the earth immortal in order to save that person. In other words, before that person was imprisoned here, the tomb of the Earth Immortal in this place already existed. Therefore, the person my grandfather saved was not the real owner of this immortal tomb.
Therefore, the real owner of the tomb is not about the person we are looking for, so we did not continue the discussion.
And the person we are looking for at this time is only equivalent to borrowing someone else's tomb. The reason why this is done is nothing more than to cover up the heavens.
On both sides of the bluestone road, there are six statues of beast heads.
As we walked along the bluestone path past the statues of the six beast heads, I saw a mountain in the distance ahead.
Of course, it can also be regarded as a huge tomb, but this tomb is as big as a mountain. At least, it's not many times bigger than the old grave slope in our village.
The top of the mountain has always been shrouded in mist.
At the foot of this mountain, there is also a statue on the left and right, with a dragon on the left and a unicorn on the right. The dragon and the unicorn both came to guard the tomb, which made the original owner of the tomb even more mysterious.
The door of the tomb was closed, and there was a seal on it.
I wanted to step forward and break the seal directly, but Bai Ze said, "Let me come, I'm good at this." ”
I naturally nodded, and then, Bai Ze stepped forward.
He walked to the tomb door, looked left and right, and then stared at the carvings on the tomb door and the frescoes on both sides of the door to take a closer look. After about half a minute, he seemed to understand. He raised his hand to condense a wisp of white qi, which lingered and penetrated into the murals on the left and right.
At that moment, I saw that the people on the mural seemed to be moving.
It's magical.
When the two murals calmed down again, the tomb door made a rumbling sound like thunder. In about half a minute, the tomb door opened.
A deep and dark tomb road, slanting downward.
The moment the door opened, a cold and piercing breath came from underneath.
Generally speaking.
There will be mechanisms in the ancient tombs, not to mention this kind of tomb of the earth immortals, I'm afraid, it will definitely evolve the mechanism to the extreme. So, we were very careful all the way. It's just that until I walked to the end of this kilometer-long tomb, I didn't encounter any tricks.
While we were wondering about this, a flame flew up from the wall next to it. This flame did not come to attack us, but floated in all directions like a ghost fire. In the burial chamber, the ever-bright lamps gradually lit up with this wisp of ghost fire.
It is worthy of the tomb of the earth immortals, when the everlasting light is on, I am really stunned when I see the structure inside the tomb clearly.
The dome above the head alone is probably hundreds of meters high, and above the dome is an astrological chart made of something, and when you look up, the astrological chart looks like a whirlpool that wants to suck the soul of a person into it.
I glanced at it and immediately looked away, my head a little confused.
If your heart is not firm enough, I am afraid that you will be lost at a glance.
I immediately instructed them not to look at the dome.
Then, in front of the ever-bright lantern, a stone bridge appeared, leading into the distance, as if there was no end in sight.
Under the light of this ever-bright lamp, you can also see fog drifting around, seeing these, there is a strange feeling, that is, there is a bit of a fairyland feeling here, but there is also a bit of a weird feeling.
The interweaving of weirdness and beauty makes this tomb full of mystery.
If the ancient tomb of the six-fingered qin demon in the abyss of the Demon Domain is an ordinary tomb, then this tomb of the earth immortal is simply another world hidden underground.
It is not an exaggeration to describe it like this.
We walked along the stone bridge, and on both sides of the stone walls, there were also giant statues carved, and on the outside, the same statues of the gods of the zodiac were inside. Moreover, each statue is dozens of meters high, looking down on everything below, and has a strong deterrent power.
"Grandpa Niu, where will that person lock up my grandfather?" That's the key to being here, I asked.
