Chapter 167: Strange Snake (Three Watches)
"Some call them messengers of the devil!" Ye Yunyi explained with a smile.
"In fact, these snakes were all cultivated by the Absolute Queen, otherwise, with the national strength of the Absolute Peerless Country, how could they subdue many neighboring countries?"
Ye Yunyi explained, but did not say the specific origin of these strange snakes, and everyone did not know what to hear.
Looking at everyone's puzzled looks, Ye Yunyi continued: "Let's go to the tomb first, and I'll talk to you on the way." ”
Saying that, Ye Yunyi took the first step to the depths of the temple, and with a wave of his hand, he only heard a click, and the stone bricks on the ground collapsed, revealing a bottomless tunnel.
Ye Yunyi snapped his fingers, and the entire tunnel lit up, and led everyone down the tomb.
On the walls of the corridor, murals are depicted, mostly ceremonies, telling stories about jade eyeballs.
In the painting, a jade eyeball emits light, and a black hole appears in the sky, and a giant eye-like flesh egg falls from the hole.
Some depict countless black monster snakes crawling out of their flesh eggs, devouring several bound slaves, and the slaves struggle in pain.
There are also paintings of black peaks, and the mountains are crawling with black snakes, and the surrounding beasts are kneeling on the ground and kowtowing to the strange snakes on the mountain.
Everyone was curious to look at the murals.
In front of the last painting, Ye Yunyi stopped, and everyone saw a huge cave on this mural.
Ye Yunyi turned out a whip, pointed to the cave on the last mural, and explained to everyone like a tour guide: "This is a ghost cave, a broken gap between Huangquan Hell and the world. ”
"And those strange snakes you saw earlier are the alien species cultivated by the Absolute Queen, using the power of death and corruption ingested from the Yellow Springs Hell."
"The snakes themselves are evil things, and after being carefully cultivated by the Queen of Absolute Perfection, these snakes are able to withstand the power of death from the Yellow Springs Hell, and they have changed and become the strange snakes we just saw."
"Naturally, these strange snakes also have the shortcomings of ghosts, afraid of light, afraid of fire, and afraid of the sun."
"Because the strange snake has the power of death and corrosion, those beasts are afraid."
"And with the existence of these snakes, the Elite Kingdom is naturally invincible, making the surrounding neighbors submit."
"Because of the strength of these strange snakes, they are also worshiped as guardian saints by the people of the Peerless Country, but for the neighbors, this is the messenger of the devil, because wherever they pass, they bring death."
"As for the eye pattern on the mural, it is the totem of the earliest belief of the Elite Country, or the ancestor of the Elite Country, the Zagrama clan."
"A long, long time ago, the Zagrama clan discovered this huge bottomless cave in this Zagrama Mountain, and they thought there was a mystery hidden in this cave, so they wanted to find out."
"But the human eye has limited vision, so they came up with the idea of creating a divine eye to spy on the secrets of the cave."
"At that time, they learned that in the land of the Central Plains, there is a legend of a golden divine eye."
"So they imitated a golden god eye and made a huge jade eyeball, hoping to peek into the secrets of the cave."
"But jade is warm and moist, it can absorb the essence of heaven and earth, jade nourishes people, and it can also sojourn the soul and nourish the soul."
"The existence of the jade eyeball communicates with the breath of death from the Yellow Springs Hell, causing it to explode, causing calamity to befall and being eroded by the power of death, becoming a curse existing in the bloodline."
"The Zagrama clan mistakenly thought that it was the calamity caused by the imitation of the Divine Eye to spy on the cave, and thought that if they wanted to break this curse, they could only break it by finding the legendary Divine Eye in the Central Plains and offering sacrifices to him."
"This jade eyeball has become a totem of their faith."
Ye Yunyi explained roughly, and did not explain to them in detail, what the Golden Divine Eye was, what kind of ability the Absolute Queen had, and how she mastered the power of death and cultivated the strange snake.
After hearing this, everyone realized, but there were still many questions lingering in their minds.
However, they didn't rush to ask, since Ye Yunyi took the initiative to speak, then he would tell them all the hidden secrets of the Exquisite Ancient City.
Because Ye Yunyi led the way, they went all the way unimpeded and did not encounter any danger.
Walking out of the corridor, they came to the main hall of the underground palace, which only existed in the legendary Exquisite Palace, but it was also decayed, and everything except jade had been severely corroded.
Seeing these fat people a little disappointed, I thought I could find huge treasures, but I didn't expect it to be some, broken tiles and jars.
Ye Yunyi's footsteps did not stop, and everyone did not dare to stay alone to observe, and followed closely.
Rounding the back hall and passing through the dormitory, the group came to a natural stone cave the size of a stadium, and in the cave there was a small underground lake.
Stepping across the lake, they came to another passage in the cave, and everyone heard the sound of running water, which seemed to be a dark river flowing.
Walking along the passage, only a few hundred meters away, I saw a dark river with a strong flow across the entrance of the cave.
"This ...... This is the Zidua Dark River, which has flowed under the sea of sand for thousands of years and has never dried up! Professor Chen looked at the rushing dark river and said excitedly.
"Hehe, on the other side of the dark river, the cave is the tomb of the Exquisite Queen." Ye Yunyi smiled, looked at another cave on the other side of the river, and said, stepping on the black stone bridge across the dark river without stopping, and came to the cave at the other end.
Everyone followed, and in front of the cave was a jack gate, Ye Yunyi waved his hand, and the gate slowly opened.
Ye Yunyi walked in with everyone, this is a ramp, very long. After walking for a long time, I came to the end of the ramp, there was no way ahead, under the ramp was a platform, on the platform stood hundreds of giant pupil stone figures, the edge of the platform was a steep mountain wall, and a huge eye was carved above, watching everything.
However, the platform seems to have been destroyed a long time ago, and there is no staircase to descend.
On the ground there are mountains of gold and silver vessels, pearls and gems, and ancient chalcedony.
Looking at this endless wealth, everyone was stunned. Especially the fat man's face showed joy, his eyes straightened, and he patted Hu Bayi's shoulder and whispered: "Old Hu, it's here!" ”
Hu Bayi nodded, glanced at the fat man, and had a thought.
Just when everyone was looking at these treasures in a daze, Ye Yunyi changed out of the stone steps and walked down.
After passing through these treasure mountains, I walked into a blown up stone gate, and after walking for a long time, I stopped, and everyone followed closely, only the fat man fell last, and began to put those treasures into his backpack while people were not paying attention.
There was no road ahead, and what appeared in the eyes of everyone was a huge, bottomless abyss-like cavern.
In the cave, there was a strange sound, like the sound of the wind and the howling of a wolf......
