Chapter 55: The Tomb of the Immortals

"Since you call me Mom, then I should also give my son a meeting gift."

As she spoke, Li Yanran put a long box in front of Guan Yue.

"What is this?"

Seeing Li Yanran's movements, Guan Yue looked at her with some confusion, not knowing what she was going to do.

"Let's open it and take a look."

Li Yanran smiled slightly and said to Guan Yue.

"Huh? This is? ”

Guan Yue didn't use his divine sense to probe the situation inside the box in advance, he felt that this was the least respect for Li Yanran. After hearing Li Yanran ask him to open the box, he opened the box, but after opening it, he found that what was in the box was a long sword!

"It's a magic weapon!"

Guan Yue was startled suddenly, and involuntarily said in his heart.

"Mom, how can you have such a thing?"

Guan Yue finally realized that the second thing Li Yanran asked him to do should be related to this long sword.

"Well, that's a long story......"

Li Yanran sighed lightly, glanced at the long sword a little desolately, and then told the story of Guan Yue's long sword faintly.

At that time, Li Yanran and Su Xiaoqian's father were university alumni, Li Yanran studied finance, and Su Xiaoqian's father Su Changmin studied archaeology.

The Su family was originally from Jiangmen, but when they came to Su Changmin, they gave up joining the army because they liked archaeology, which made the old man very unhappy. But there is no way, because he only has a son like Su Changmin, and Su Changmin can only choose his future.

Later, Su Changmin became a university teacher, although this did not meet the old man's wishes, but his work was recognized by the old man. Li Yanran, on the other hand, first entered a state-owned enterprise because she majored in finance, and later relied on the resources saved by her family to start a business because she did not adapt to its system, and she also developed well.

Although the two did not join the army, at least they also made certain achievements in their respective fields, and the old man had no choice but to die of his son's heart to join the army after seeing this.

Later, there was Su Xiaoqian, and a few years later, their youngest son was born. The family can be regarded as harmonious and happy.

But just a month after Liang Yanran's youngest son was born, Su Changmin suddenly excitedly told Liang Yanran that he had discovered a very magical tomb. It is said that as long as the secret of this tomb is revealed, then it is likely to be the largest archaeological discovery of this century, and perhaps it is very likely to be a very significant archaeological discovery in human history.

That is, not long after that day, one day Su Changmin's eyes suddenly turned red and secretly put a long sword here with Liang Yanran, saying that he wanted Liang Yanran to take good care of it. At the same time, he also hung a piece of jade pendant around his son's neck, wanting to bless his son's healthy growth.

After doing these things, Su Changmin finally told Liang Yanran about his recent situation. It turned out that there has always been a big consortium behind the archaeological action he participated in recently, and this big consortium was inadvertently discovered by Su Changmin that it was actually a foreign biopharmaceutical company.

The original face of this biopharmaceutical company was actually based on the resale of cultural relics, and at the same time it tried to study super-scientific things.

And what Su Changmin's archaeological team found was actually an important reason why this consortium came to their aid.

After Su Changmin's investigation, it was found that the tomb they studied was actually not the tomb of ordinary human beings as human beings knew it. Rather, it is the tomb of the legendary immortals.

"The Tomb of the Immortals?!"

Hearing this, Guan Yue was also shocked in his heart.

This is the first news that Guan Yue has heard in so long to lift his spirits.

"That's right, I said it was an immortal tomb, so it's very likely that it was really an immortal tomb!"

Liang Yanran said with certainty, after all, they used to be highly educated intellectuals, and they generally never believed in such ghosts and gods. But if some kind of truth is discovered, it will be crazy to use it as the direction of research.

Intellectuals are generally like this, it is difficult for them to break what they believe in, but if one day they find that what they believe in is different from reality, or even contrary to reality, they will frantically grasp them and spare no effort to study them, this is the belief of these people.

From an atheist to a person who believes in the existence of immortals, the pain and hardship involved may only be understood by the person concerned.

It was precisely because of this that Su Changmin would study the so-called immortal tomb like crazy.

At the beginning of the study, the crowd stagnated, not because of anything else, but mainly because of the stone monument standing in front of the stone gate of the tomb.

On this stone stele, everyone found that the text on it was not at all any kind of writing that humans know today, and the stone door of the tomb did not know what the reason was, and it still did not open after all the attempts of various methods by everyone.

In the end, everyone had to turn their eyes back on the stone tablet and start studying the words on the stone tablet again.

Later, when Su Changmin consulted the local chronicle of a small place, he learned from that local chronicle that this tomb was originally said to be the tomb of an immortal. And the local chronicle also clearly records the method of opening this tomb and the specific taboos that were noted.

But after Su Changmin found out about this, everyone once again turned their attention to the method of opening the tomb, and the words engraved on the stele itself still had not been interpreted.

But Su Changmin did not give up the search for the source of the text on the stele because of everyone's enthusiasm. Later, another stone tablet was found in a local field that was almost identical to this stone tablet, and on this stone tablet was clearly inscribed with two rows of warnings in Chinese characters. The general content of the book is to warn the world that if you find that one day you see a stone tablet that looks exactly like this stone tablet, do not open it, because there is an immortal living in it, and it is a terrifying immortal that cannot be disturbed.

Legend has it that this immortal is immortal, but he has been sleeping all the time.

I don't know who spread this legend, but when the foundation learned of it, they immediately demanded that the stone gate be opened by violence. Later, the stone gate collapsed in front of a number of modern machines, but the picture before them was not what they had imagined.

This stone gate is only the first barrier to the entrance, and behind the stone gate is a long, deep passage. The passages are depicted with characters in various poses, as well as indecipherable characters.

"It's likely that the various postures should be various exercises."

Guan Yue couldn't help but think to himself when he heard this, but he didn't interrupt Liang Yanran's speech and continued to listen quietly.

After walking through these passages, another stone gate stood in front of everyone, and when they wanted to regret taking the tools, they found that the passage they had taken before had completely changed.

The whole passage has an indescribable softness and muddy, and there is no feeling of the hard stone walls that were before.

According to Su Changmin's memories after he returned, Su Changmin had a frightening conjecture. That stone wall passage was not a so-called passage at all, but probably some strange life form or the inside of some kind of life form, and it was this life form that they walked into!

When he said this, Guan Yue, who heard about it on the side, was also stunned, although he had seen many strange things, but he had never encountered this possibility that Su Changmin had inferred, and he had never even heard of it.

"What's that? Demon? ”

Guan Yue couldn't help but guess in his heart.

While everyone was still discussing how to open the second stone door, Su Changmin was still alone at the entrance of the tomb to study the stone tablet, since he came back from the first passage, Su Changmin had never entered this passage again.

Until one day, Su Changmin finally discovered that at a special moment, these incomprehensible characters on the stone tablet would rearrange themselves, and after arrangement, they would be transformed into well-known Chinese characters.

This discovery surprised Su Changmin and became frightened at the same time.

Because he found out from these texts that this was not a tomb of immortals, but a place where immortals slay demons in legends. There are a total of thirteen of these stone gates, and if all the doors are finally opened, then the demon sealed by the immortals will also appear in front of the world.

The way to prevent the stone door from continuing to open is to reseal the entire tomb. Let the entire channel be completely closed.

Enduring the frightened state of mind, Su Changmin quietly walked into the passage alone after waiting for the archaeological team to enter. Finally, in the most central part of the passage, Su Changmin finally found the key to open the stone door and the way to close the stone door.

It turned out that a long sword had been inserted in the center of the passage, and a pair of jade pendants had been stored under the stone tablet.

After finding the location of the long sword, Su Changmin couldn't help but start getting excited, and at the same time suddenly pulled out the long sword inserted in a dark place. As the long sword was drawn, Su Changmin heard a cry of surprise coming from the depths of the passage.

"Great, the stone gate has finally opened."

After hearing this, Su Changmin knew that he was deceived by the words on the stone tablet, which was not a key to close the passage at all, but a key to open the next passage.

After realizing this, Su Changmin immediately inserted the sword in his hand back, but it was already too late, even if the long sword was put back in place, it had no effect.

Even, Su Changmin faintly heard a burst of hearty laughter in the passage.

According to Su Changmin's later recollections, this voice should be the voice of the demon mentioned on the stone tablet.

Thinking of this, Su Changmin had the heart to remind him to come in with him at the same time or as a partner, but before he could be reminded, he found that it was too late.

Those who entered the second stone door felt as if they were fixed as soon as they entered, and everyone stood still at this moment, as if they were in a daze.

"It's very likely that they fell under the illusion, which is why they are stagnant."

After listening to Liang Yanran's words, Guan Yue immediately guessed that this should be the illusion that He Luo said at that time. Thinking of this, Guan Yue couldn't help but think that there might be other cultivators in this world besides himself, which made Guan Yue couldn't help but be a little excited.

After careful observation, Su Changmin was horrified to find that there was a faint green line behind the heads of these people, and this green line extended all the way to the back of the second stone gate!

At the same time, a scene that made Su Changmin feel even more frightened appeared in front of him.

Those people who were originally sluggish suddenly became crazy, and they couldn't stop biting each other, and at the same time as these people were biting, hundreds of such green lines rushed out from behind the second stone gate and went straight to Su Changmin.

Maybe it was because Su Changmin was holding the long sword and jade pendant in his hand, and those green lines shrank back the moment they rushed to Su Changmin as if they had encountered something terrible.

At the same time as the green line was retracted, hundreds of green lines were transmitted directly to the bodies of the archaeological team members. Those archaeological team members quickly shrunk under Su Changmin's shocked gaze, until only the dried human skins were left on the ground.

Seeing this scene, Su Changmin could no longer suppress the fear in his heart, and rushed towards the outside of the tomb like crazy.

And those green lines also followed him and rushed outside after discovering that Su Changmin had left, but when they rushed to the first stone gate, a golden light suddenly flashed on the stone tablet, directly smashing those green lines.

The green lines that were about to rush out quickly faded inside as soon as they discovered the existence of the stele.

Su Changmin originally wanted to put the long sword and jade pendant in his hand back into place, but when he thought of the scene that made him creepy before, he no longer had the courage to enter the passage, but desperately rushed out of the tomb.

After rushing out of the tomb, Su Changmin received a question from the consortium, in order not to involve Liang Yanran and them in these things, Su Changmin left the long sword and jade pendant to Liang Yan and then went alone to find the big consortium, and there was no news from again.

And Liang Yanran's son, I don't know what the reason is, died suddenly a month after Su Changmin left. The pair of jade pendants that Su Changmin put next to his son at that time also disappeared inexplicably.

It was precisely because of this incident that Liang Yanran, who had not yet recovered from her body, was deeply shocked, and at the same time, she also hated Su Changmin. In Liang Yanran's opinion, if it weren't for Su Changmin's gift of his son Yu Pei, perhaps, his son would not have had any accidents.

"Then you're going to give me this sword now?"

Hearing this, Guan Yue couldn't help but ask.

"I hope Xiao Yue you can protect Xiaoqian, no matter what, she is now your sister!"

Speaking of this, Liang Yanran's eyes suddenly turned slightly red, and she said with some fear.

Since a month ago, Liang Yanran didn't know if it was her own delusion, she always felt that someone was secretly staring at their family, because with what happened to Su Changmin back then, she naturally thought of what she was most worried about.
