Chapter Seventy-Three: The Mural

A group of us, illuminated by torches made of two peachwood swords, x

Along the way, the baby-like crying sound kept coming from the front. But because at this moment, we all know that they are from the weeping blood baby flower, so we are not so afraid.

Fear comes from the unknown, and now, the unknown becomes known, and the fear fades.

Suddenly, just like just now, a white petal appeared in front of us, and the petal was about to burst towards us. But as the Ninth Master said, it was probably afraid of fire, so it just suspended quietly and didn't shoot at us.

The Ninth Master held the torch and took the first step, and when it approached the petal, it seemed to have spirituality, and actually retreated backwards.

In this way, as soon as it retreated, we sped up a little bit and forced it to retreat all the time.

After walking for a long time, suddenly, the Ninth Master at the front stopped.

Naturally, we stopped.

"What's wrong? Ninth Master, why don't you keep going? I asked.

The Ninth Master asked me to stand in front, and I walked a few steps and saw a clump of white flowers emerge under the light of the torch.

That flower, I don't need to say it from the ninth master, I also know that it is the weeping blood baby flower.

And under the cluster of flowers, there was a corpse lying quietly, that corpse, I don't know how long it had been dead, anyway, the flesh on the whole body was pitch black. It is estimated that it is because of the weeping blood baby flower, so there are no maggots on his body, and he is not completely rotten, and he doesn't even smell.

At this moment, the weeping blood baby flower, like a person with spiritual intelligence, saw us coming. The petals on the vine actually began to close one by one at this moment.

"Wow Wow Wow~~~"

Suddenly, it was as if hundreds of babies were crying in front of their eyes. That kind of harsh sound makes each of us creepy to hear.

The weeping blood baby flower seems to be a warning to us, warning us not to come forward.

But what kind of person is the Ninth Master, how can he be afraid of this cluster of flowers that are even slow to act. Although this flower is the weeping blood baby flower that can kill people in an instant, in the eyes of the ninth master, they are just a pile of dead things.

The ninth master first called the funeral flower, and took us back more than ten meters away, and then, by himself, holding a torch in his hand, slowly approached the weeping blood baby flower.

When the torch arrived, he was about to approach the Weeping Blood Baby, when suddenly, he threw the torch in his hand with his right hand towards the Weeping Blood Baby.

"Huh~~~", the torch happened to be still in the center of the weeping blood baby flower.

The fire suddenly spread to the weeping blood baby flowers, burning them with lightning speed.

"Wow Wow Wow~~~"

No matter how powerful the weeping blood baby flower is, in the final analysis, it is still the plant. It can't be like an animal, after burning its body, it rolls on the ground and runs. They can only bear it silently.

Besides, there is no wind in this dark passage. It is impossible to blow out the flames that have burned into pieces.

The petals of the Weeping Blood Baby Flower continued to open and close one by one under the burning fire, making a cry like a baby. This time, their cries were the same as their dying weepings.

When the crying stopped, the dust fell. The weeping blood baby flower has been completely burned to ashes. Even the corpse was burned beyond recognition.

"Now, it's time to move on."

The Ninth Master spoke and led us on.

Walking to the corpse that had been burned beyond recognition, the Ninth Master also stopped to inspect it.

However, nothing was found. It's just that he picked up a piece of jade pendant from the ground.

This jade pendant was also burned black, but after all, it was jade, and it was still preserved after all. However, it is obviously impossible to identify the identity of the corpse in front of him with this jade pendant.

I don't know if it's an illusion, I always feel that the piece of jade pendant that has been burned black is somewhat familiar. It's like I've seen it somewhere, but I can't remember where I've seen it.

"Forget it, leave him alone. It doesn't matter to us who he is, who he really is. ”

The Ninth Master shook his head, threw the jade pendant on the ground again, and then led us on.

That's it, all the way. Suddenly, I saw Jiu Ye's ears tremble slightly, and then I saw him leaning against the ground, prostrate down, and lean his ears against the ground.

"Oh no, we're going to speed things up. It is estimated that the eight-star elder has solved the eight-clawed forbidden woman, and now, he has also entered this dark channel. At our pace, within a few hours, they will catch up. ”

When the ninth master said this, his face was very heavy.

I who followed him couldn't help but ask curiously at this moment: "Ninth Master, who is that eight-star elder?" Are they powerful? ”

The ninth master said that the eight-star elders were the eight old men recommended by their Kunlun Zhang family.

Those eight old men were not descendants of the Kunlun Zhang family. But they are all loyal to the Kunlun Zhang family.

And the reason for their allegiance is either because the Kunlun Zhang family has given them huge benefits, or because the Kunlun Zhang family has been kind to them before... And these eight people, each of them taken out individually, are very remarkable characters. The Ninth Master also said that among the eight-star elders, there was a person called 'Long Lao', and his strength was on par with him. He is also the leader of these eight-star elders.

Hearing the Ninth Master say this, I have a deep understanding of the eight-star elder.

Of course, it also solved a doubt in my heart. It turned out that these eight-star elders were not descendants of the Kunlun Zhang family, no wonder they were not afraid of curses and dared to enter this dirt road.

In fact, at this time, I was very curious about this dirt road.

I thought to myself, "Could this dirt road be the tomb of some great ancient man?" ”

I don't know why, but I have this thought.

At the same time, I touched the dragon ring on my right hand, and thought of some of the things that Pu Jia had said to me.

She once said that she is now in the Dragon Ring, and the energy she can mobilize is limited, so she can't open up the movie world for me like the first time. And if she wants to recover her energy, she can only rely on devouring 'spiritual weapons', and spiritual weapons are relatively easy to encounter in ancient tombs.

Thinking of this, I couldn't help but pray to myself, praying that I could meet such a powerful spiritual weapon in this underground, and then give it to Pujia to swallow. In this way, when she has energy, she will be able to open the next movie world for me through the Dragon Ring. In the next movie world, I plan to enter a world where I can cultivate the Dao Fa, and in it, I will practice the Dao Fa for a year or two. Only then will I have the capital to help the Ninth Master, and I will not be slaughtered like a little sheep like now.

I'm like this, thinking crankily while following the ninth master.

In this way, I don't know how long I walked, and suddenly, the ninth master in front stopped again.

Because I was thinking about things all the time, I accidentally bumped into the Ninth Master. The Ninth Master hurriedly glared at me and reprimanded, "Huohuo, concentrate on walking, don't get distracted." In this, there are many dangers, and if you lose your mind, you may lose your life. ”

I hurriedly lowered my head and gave an embarrassed 'um'.

The funeral flower on the side asked with some confusion at this time: "Ninth Master, what's wrong?" Ahead, is there any danger? ”

The Ninth Master shook his head, and the torch in his hand gently approached the side wall of the dark passage on the side.

Suddenly, the firelight illuminated the side wall.

I saw that the side wall of this dark passage was carved out of huge bluestone, which was very smooth. Of course, this stone alone is obviously impossible to attract the attention of the Ninth Master.

The reason why the ninth master put the torch close to the side wall was because there were some patterns carved on the bluestone.

This kind of pattern is very common in the Mogao Grottoes, and we call them 'murals'.

In ancient times, people did not like to use words to record things, especially in such ancient tombs, or in some sacrificial venues. And I like to use patterns to remember.

In this way, a story can be told more deeply and at the same time, it can be retained for a longer period of time.

Seeing the mural on the side wall, all of us present were fascinated by it.

Among them, Zhang Qingqing gasped and sighed: "The painting level of this painter is really amazing." This work is simply a masterpiece, and it doesn't look like it was painted by ordinary people at all. ”

She had studied art before, and her appreciation of painting was obviously not at the same level as ours. When we look at those murals, we just feel lifelike, but under her professional eye, we see a different depth. According to her words, the level of this person's painting is comparable to that of a world-famous master like 'Picasso'.

Of course, what we are more curious about now is what is painted on this mural. Thinking of this, the Ninth Master couldn't help but lean the torch closer and look at the group of murals carefully...
