I almost fainted several times in the dark, but the whistling wind drove the sliding of the grass and trees to stimulate me wildly, I squinted and saw a little light in the darkness passing by my side, it was the light of the lantern in the dark, and the so-called sense of direction had been lost by me, the huge candle snake took me to a place on a rampage, without this is my last consciousness, I felt that I was being carried into a place, and the fall for several minutes finally stopped.

It seemed to have been beaten by Menyue Bin and Hu Yinman to shed too much blood, and the strong fishy smell flowed down from its skin all the time, and the sticky blood with sufficient heat was more or less sprinkled on my body, and even flowed into my mouth through my lips.

There was more and more blood, and the speed of the candle snake was getting faster and faster, and finally I was thrown somewhere with a "bang", and then the snake disappeared.

Finally, I don't know how long it took, but I woke up in a daze.

"Where is this?" I touched my head and tried to stand up, but the wound on my back recurred.

", that's the, pulled me to this bird place."

This is lying on a plank road, there are countless small holes on the plank road, the hole is not deep, which is full of ever-bright lights, candles are shaking, and this place is gloomy and miserable.

The boardwalk, overgrown with green vines, winded all the way to the end of the line of sight, where it seemed to be a turn, and I struggled to crouch up on the railing of the boardwalk to see the whole place in its entirety. I pushed aside the layers of vines until the mountain wall was completely revealed, and then I saw the broken wall everywhere, this is a huge deep hole, I don't know how deep the hole is, I don't dare to look down with a flashlight for the time being, because I remember that the candle snake was seriously injured and scurried into it. The boardwalk is built around this cave, and it goes round and round from top to bottom, but in my sight, it seems that the place I am in now cannot go up to the plank road above.

"In other words, the plank road is a single existence? Not the same? I can't help but think of it funny: "Then why build so many plank roads?" ”

Finally, when the wound on my back was gone, I decided to take a few steps forward, and suddenly something seemed to be under my feet, and I looked down to see that it was a completely weathered corpse.

I slowly peeled away the carrion's clothes and shredded flesh. When I looked closer, I took a breath and realized why there was so much blood on the ground. Because the ribs on the chest of this corpse were broken by 10 ribs, and the ribs were broken in total, and 10 were broken in one fell swoop.

Seeing this, I thought of something, fought a cold war, and slowly began to tremble, I knew that this was the lair of the candle snake, and now it was only injured, if it waited for its injuries to heal, would it ...... "Oh my God!" "I'm starting to walk around like crazy, I'm going to find a place to get out, or I'm going to have to find a place to hide!

But after looking at it for a long time, I realized that there was nothing here, except for the bones and vines on the ground, and then a slender bronze chain hanging quietly in front of my eyes on the outside of the plank road. After doing the math, you can climb a distance of more than ten meters on this iron chain to go up the plank road above, but the question arises again, can such a thin iron chain hang my body of half a hundred catties? Looking at the thin chain, I can't help but drum in my heart.

This bronze chain is wrapped in a thick layer of patina, and I scraped it off with my fingernails and it seems that I can still see the text printed on it, but the specific text style is no longer clear. "It's supposed to be an ornament." I looked at it a little pessimistically, it seemed that it was dead, it was not a hole, but a well, a well of corpses, and after walking a few steps I saw only countless bones hanging scattered on it.

Some of them were dressed in ancient costumes, and it was strange that these people looked like shriveled zombies except for the flesh on their chests, and I began to wonder if it was a snake or a vampire.

"Idiot, it's trying to turn into a dragon."

"Huh?" I followed the sound and looked towards the plank road above, and at this time, Hu Yinman poked out a head to look at me.

"Let's talk about it." Rong Ji and the others also came.

"Go down?"

"Nonsense, this is not the place to talk." As he spoke, Rong Jitong climbed down from the bronze chains hanging from above, and then Menyue Bin and Hu Yinman also slipped down.

"This thing is going to turn into a dragon." Hu Yinman said to me again: "It is sucking the essence and blood of people. ”

"Wouldn't it? But why should we go down? ”

"It's not your fault." Hu Yinman glanced at me and said, "Isn't this to save you, besides, you can't go up on it." ”

"I'm sorry." I mean it, because I know they don't have to risk it at all.

"The lower level of this whole mausoleum is its lair, do you think he will just curl up in this place? There should be a way out below, don't be too discouraged, boy. Brother Menge came over and patted me and gave me a thumbs up: "A man who can stand in front of a woman is something I admire." ”

Seeing that he was so desperate, he had no choice but to climb onto the bronze chain. I don't know what the purpose of this thing is here, but I grabbed it as if the chain was alive, the patina throbbing and struggling under the wrap of my palm, and we were like termites in a tree crawling down little by little.

"This is the yin copper, it is alive." At this time, Menyue Bin said to me: "It is used in the well of corpses to attract souls, and this well is to gather evil energy, otherwise how can that snake become a dragon." ”

Fuck me. Isn't this well a place of ceremonies? Needless to say, even if this is the case, we can only move forward.

Then I came to a place like a "deep valley", and the light of the lantern above illuminated a large shadow area, and the surrounding area of the light was covered with white vines, and it was impossible to tell whether it was artificial or natural.

The white plants on the stone wall made me feel very uneasy, the plants in this place always felt that they were not good, but this was not the problem, the main thing was that all those plants were actually "sprouted" from the coffin around me. A few steps back, I saw that the ground was covered with all kinds of corpses, and the corpses were covered with these white "vines".

"Wait....... Coffin? How can there be a coffin here? ”

And this coffin, this coffin is exactly the same as the coffin in 98.

You must know that my family spent too long looking for this coffin, and my father even paid a lot of money to ask the people who had seen the coffin about the appearance of the coffin, and then asked someone to draw a picture. When I was younger, I would often see this picture on my desk at home.

On top of the coffin lay a creature that resembled a turtle, and on the back of the turtle was a huge stone tablet with inscriptions carved all over it.

"What's wrong?" Hu Yinman noticed that my mood was obviously wrong.

I shook my head, thinking to myself that it was impossible, the coffin had already been rushed out, and it couldn't be here.

"This thing is called the dragon tortoise, also known as Baxia, it is one of the nine sons of the dragon, and likes to carry weights, so there is an inscription on the body, which is a symbol of longevity and auspiciousness in ancient times." Kado said.

"What's the word on it? And what is written? ”

"This thing has two sides, the text is seal, this carved text belongs to the seal script variant, slightly with the script font and strokes, there is a beautification and decorative effect, like the art of the seal book. And the content, on one side is written 'land ticket' and the town inscription. This voucher is a certificate of ownership of the land where the deceased is buried. According to the funeral system of the Han Dynasty, it was a document issued by the supreme god to introduce the deceased to heaven. Of course, it also separates the dead from the living to protect the family members of the living from injuries and diseases. ”

"That's it?"

"Of course that's it, this thing is just a beautiful view of another world in ancient times, and it has no real literal meaning."

"And what about the other side?"

"The other side?" Menyue Bin groaned for a long time, walked to the other side of the stone monument, and saw it with his cheeks.

Men Yuebin looked a little fascinated, and it took a long time to ease up and say: "This is a story about the Marquis of Haidu, saying that one day the Marquis of Haidun dreamed of a beautiful snake, so he did something shameful with the beautiful snake. As a result, when I woke up the next day, I found that my back was very painful, so I asked someone to come over and take a look, and found that snake scales had grown on my back. And the snake scales grew very fast, and his liver and gallbladder were broken, and he had no choice but to ask someone, but there was no one who could cure him in this big city, and in this way, his condition became more and more serious, and even the whole person began to snake. Finally, his subordinates found a strange person, this person knows some feng shui techniques and the way of cultivating immortals, he proposed to change the skin and turn the dragon to make this skin disease completely cured, and then ordered a dragon's den in the mountains, saying that this place is a place where the dragon veins flourish, and can turn the dragon into an immortal. Of course, the Marquis of Hailun is also a fool, of course he doesn't believe it, so the strange man told him that there is a dragon cave buried at the foot of the Makufu Mountain Range, and there is a dragon coffin in the cave where the dragon mother is buried. When the Marquis heard this, he asked people to look for it, and sure enough, at the foot of the mountain, in the cave above the river, he found a coffin like this, and there was indeed a human skin in the coffin. Since then, the Marquis of Hailun has been convinced of the Naqi people, and has renovated the burial place of the coffin of the dragon mother in the mountain, and buried the dragon coffin again. ”

Hearing this, I understood that the original dragon coffin did not rush out from under the Yin Sea, but the Mufu Mountain Range, which is the source of the Xiu River. According to this story, what was buried in the coffin at that time was the Mother of Dragons, that is, the statue in front of the main gate of the ancient tomb of the Marquis of Haiding. But what is this coffin for? Could it be that there are also humans who have turned into dragons?

"Can the coffin be opened?" I thought about it and said.

"Open the coffin?" Rong Jitong glanced at me: "Don't make trouble here, you know very well what kind of place this is!" ”

After thinking about it, I still told them about the incident in '98, and then pointed to this coffin and said that the coffin that was washed out of the ground by water was exactly the same as this one!

After listening to my story, they were silent for a long time, and Rong Jitong nodded to indicate that he knew about this incident back then.

"This matter made a big fuss back then, and I always felt that your father was looking for something in the river, but I didn't know that there was such a secret, but don't think too much about it, coffins are mass-produced, and this coffin may just look the same as the one in 98. But if you open the coffin, it's not impossible! Rong Jitong said.
