Chapter 0021 Han Lu Temple, Old Liu'an People's Blood Fish (I)

"Boom-"

In the deep and empty underground cavern, the short hair on the top of Feng Baobao's head was lifted by the violent wind, and then his body swayed, and he fell to the ground with a stagger, and his eyebrows frowned slightly, gradually adapting to the light that had dimmed again.

The ever-bright lights in the corners of the circular altar flickered faintly, and the sound of water rushing in the huge underground space sounded in my ears, and the wind chimes jingled against each other, with a strange tranquility in the subtle restlessness.

Feng Baobao looked around, Xu Zhaohua and the fat man also woke up with shaking the gravel chips on their scalps, and on the right hand, the square stone box containing liquid at the bottom of the alcove fell to the ground, and the surrounding ever-bright lights converged the light to the center, casting a dim orange yellow.

The fat man rubbed his head and got up, looked at the scene around him, and became happy, "Hey, I didn't expect us to really come out, it's not easy!" ”

Xu Zhaohua picked up the parting hook that fell at her feet and hung it back on her waist, her expression was obviously much more relaxed.

Feng Baobao said with a smile: "It's good that everyone is safe, but it's a pity that Wang Mang's dragon mace hasn't been brought out, and it hasn't been covered yet......

Feng Baobao shook his empty palm with some regret, and then looked at the ever-bright lamp on the alcove that had been completely extinguished, and was a little puzzled, "There is a mural here, which depicts three tomb robbers opening the door to the underground mausoleum, shouldn't it be a few of us?" ”

The fat man and Xu Zhaohua had already fainted before they had time to look at the mural at the base of the alcove, and at this time, when Feng Baobao mentioned it again, they couldn't help but surround them, and the two of them poked their heads over, and after looking at it for a long time, they were a little guilty and muttered.

The fat man had a ghostly expression, ", don't look at the thick and ugly depiction of this mural, but it's really three people, look at you, there is a woman with braids, isn't that the boss!" ”

Xu Zhaohua's expression was a little solemn, he didn't know how to describe his current mood, he had only heard that the prophet had the ability to predict the future, but after seeing with his own eyes more than a thousand years ago, the prophet predicted more than a thousand years later, it was even more shocking.

After being stunned for a long time, Xu Zhaohua muttered: "Incredible, it's incredible, it's just like the prophetic ability of the Mayan civilization on the other side of the world." ”

Later, Xu Zhaohua seemed to have discovered something, stretched his hand down from the alcove, and groped a few times, Feng Baobao heard a click from the alcove and something was opened, and then, the base of the alcove suddenly emitted a dazzling daylight, and the altar began to rumble and turn.

Immediately afterwards, Feng Baobao felt an uncontrollable shaking of his body, stepped on the soles of his feet, and fell.

", what have you done surnamed Xu, fat man, I'm afraid of heights-"

The fat man and Xu Zhaohua also fell together, and the three of them smashed deeper into the ground from the crack on the altar.

Bang!

Feng Baobao's body hit an oval boulder at the bottom, and then fell from it again, grinning in pain.

When she came to her senses, it was a bright place, a much larger underground riverbank.

It resembles an underground reef, scattered in the middle of the river in front of it, and the water of the underground river winds around these reefs and flows into the unknown depths. As far as the eye can see, there are four stone beasts on the bank of the open space that seems to form a natural barrier with the reef island, the green dragon, the white tiger, the vermilion bird, and the Xuanwu, the shape of the four stone beasts is ordinary, but the paint of the beast's body is bright red.

"Good girl, so many night pearls, it's going to be sent!" The fat man didn't care about the pain of his buttocks, but he touched it excitedly towards the bright light.

The gap in the altar above where the three of them fell down was pitch black like a cloud of thick ink, and in the corners of the wall in all directions of the gap, pieces of jade stones that shimmered like night pearls were inlaid on it, and there was no light in the ground, but it was lit up under the illumination of these crystal jade.

The altar above the head is about two zhang high from the ground, and the jade above the head is clearly extinguished at this time, like a galaxy in the night sky, a bright beauty.

The fat man touched the crystal jade on the low wall with a look of wealth, and grinned happily, "Hehe, this fall is not in vain, such a night pearl, it is worth a lot of money to deduct a piece of it casually!" ”

Later, the fat man muttered again, "It's just ...... Aren't the pearls all jade run natural this night, why are they so rough to the touch? ”

Feng Baobao glanced at him with disgust, "Don't touch it blindly, it's not the Night Pearl at all, okay, have you ever seen a Night Pearl look so upright?" ”

"It's not a night pearl, how can it be bright...... the fat man puzzled.

"It's a snake's eye stone," Xu Zhaohua said, sitting on the ground, "Historical records record that during the Qin and Han dynasties, a swordsmith went into the mountains to dig for iron ore, and found that there were a lot of poisonous snakes on a small hill, and they were always wandering around a pile of rocks.

This strange phenomenon aroused the interest of the swordsmiths, and after several days and nights of observation, the swordsmiths finally figured out that when night fell, the stones of the rocks would flash with a bluish light, and many insects would fly over the bright stones, and the frogs would jump out to prey on the insects, so the snakes hiding not far away also rushed to prey on the frogs.

Therefore, from the mouth of the swordsmith, this kind of stone that can emit light is called 'snake eye stone', and it is not a night pearl at all. ”

After listening to this, the fat man withdrew his hand curtly, patted his palm, and scratched his head a little embarrassed.

At this time, Feng Baobao walked towards the four stone beasts in front of him, which were bright red, as if they had been splashed with blood. The stone beast is surrounded by a decayed scene, there is a vigorous old willow tree planted in the middle, the old willow tree is planted near the riverside of the underground dark river, the tree is more than two feet high, the willow branches are hanging down, the sword leaves are outstanding, and it is particularly lush under the reflection of the snake's eye stone.

Beyond the stone statues and old willow trees, there was a raging underground river and a dotted reef island, and the depths of the clouds in front of it were devoid of snake's eye stone lighting, and it was a little terrifyingly dark.

"Strange, there is no sunlight in this underground all year round, how did this old willow tree survive?"

Feng Baobao was a little suspicious, she approached the old willow tree, the trunk of the old willow tree was three or four people hugging each other, and the willow leaves could even see wet water droplets rolling down, there was no doubt that there were at least thousands of years of annual ring imprints.

Xu Zhaohua also followed, touched the old willow tree, and then touched the stone beasts in the four directions, pointed at them and said: "In metaphysics, the green dragon and white tiger and the vermilion bird Xuanwu represent the four directions of east, west, north and south, respectively, and it is the green dragon stone beast that is rushing to the underground dark river, that is to say, if we go down, we are going to the east." ”

A touch of red paint on the stone beast was dusted off and fell on Xu Zhaohua's hand, he put it to his nose and sniffed, and suddenly, his face turned pale.

"Oh no, it's another killing!" Xu Zhaohua suddenly realized something and said with a solemn face.

"What...... Kill? What's going on? The fat man hurriedly asked.

"These four stone beasts are not painted with red paint, but directly drenched in human blood! In the middle of the old willow tree is planted, just take a word 'sleepy' and a word 'stay', which is a very unlucky practice, will attract evil ghosts. Moreover, by sprinkling human blood on the four divine beasts and committing the taboo of feng shui, the spirituality of the divine beasts was washed away, and it lost its role as a guard, so I concluded that this must be another game set up by the prophet! Xu Zhaohua said with an affirmative face.

"So we're all in this game now? But I don't see any danger, do you? Feng Baobao was puzzled.

"I'm afraid it's not time yet, this bureau has started since we fell, the snake's eye stone can't be lit up for a thousand years, it should be driven by the mechanism on the altar to light up, there must be something strange between the snake's eye stone and this bureau, we are in danger now, I'm afraid it's not so easy to dodge......"

Whoa—

As soon as Xu Zhaohua's voice fell, in the underground dark river in the distance, the river water stirred, and an ominous sound was heard.

Hearing only a sound, Feng Baobao stood up, held the wolf's eye flashlight and shone towards the underground dark river, and saw a huge black shadow swimming quickly in the direction of the old willow tree, with the momentum of thunder, roaring in the wind and waves.

The black shadow was huge, and its appearance was extremely ugly, like a mermaid about to die of old age, and its body was withered. Half of it is humanoid, and the other half is a fish, which has several front crows, and the humanoid form is as numb as a zombie. It is more than four or five meters long, its black back is like armor, and it shines a terrifying light under the reflection of snake's eye stone, and its fish tail is as thick as a rock, and its head has a pair of compound eyes, which are composed of several pairs of single eyes.

"It's a fish woman!" Xu Zhaohua was shocked, "The "Classic of Mountains and Seas" records that the fish woman is a creature formed by the combination of a drowning person and a fish in the water. Although it exists in the form of a human, it is parasitic in the form of a fish, and if it is not separated, the fish woman is a living creature, but if it is separated, the two return to a state of death. ”

The ventral surface of the fishwoman's head is its mouthparts, which are both its feeding and sensory organs, and the so-called hood door is also in this position. Because of its poor eyesight, it could only rely on its hearing to orient itself and explore where its prey was, and at this moment the black behemoth reached the riverbank, blocking the flow of the entire underground river.

", such a big fish woman, shouldn't she be able to cultivate in the water!" The fat man covered his mouth and said in surprise.

"Fish women have always been rare, I am afraid that they have been in the ground for many years and have been nourished by miasma to mutate their physique, and they have been out of the category of normal body type!" Xu Zhaohua pulled out the parting hook and began to wrap it around his hand with a strip of cloth, "Huainanzi" cloud: The fish woman swims in the fog and dies in the ability to make snakes. This fish woman is afraid that she has been raised in the underground palace since she was a child, and she was specially left to guard this mausoleum, and there should be a snake den nearby as a source of food for it. ”

At this moment, the fish woman shrank her head, bowed her body, and bounced herself out like an arrow, and rushed straight at Feng Baobao and the others.

"You two go to the tree first, I'll go and put the fish woman in order, too many people will be cumbersome!"

Xu Zhaohua pushed Feng Baobao and the fat man away, and rushed up with the parting hook, a gust of wind carried it, and the iron hook slashed straight at the monster opposite.

Woo woo –

Phew!

Under the glittering snake's eye stone, an even more dazzling light flashed, and a pair of tail tails on the chest of this huge fish woman were cut off by the parting hook, bringing out a black blood splashed in the air, and the broken leg was thrown on the stone wall. Xu Zhaohua rolled out from under the fish woman, and the fish woman seemed to shrink in pain, and then turned back and aimed at Xu Zhaohua.

The branches and leaves of the old willow tree fell from the sky, and the fluorescent light sprinkled on the ground like water, contrasting a bright silver light and a dark figure.

Buzz –

The fish woman pounced towards Yan Fei, this time it seemed to have learned finely, and did not give Xu Zhaohua a chance to roll out from under him, and the strong and sharp front crow hung down from the air and smashed into his Tianling Gai.
