Zhang Ju looked up at the towering stone gate in front of him, and after a few seconds, he looked at the statue on the left, and then at the statue on the right. Seeing that the statue's face suddenly smiled evilly, Zhang Ju felt a pang in his heart, and then rubbed his eyes. Finding that the evil smile had disappeared, I began to wonder in my heart: "Is it really that I am dazzled?" ”

He slowly turned his head and looked at Xu Yuling and Su Ce next to him, and just as he turned his head, he saw the evil smile again through the corner of his eye. He immediately turned his head to stare at the statue's face, which was all right, nothing unusual.

Zhang Ju opened his mouth and said, "Have you noticed that the face of this statue on the right is a little strange? ”

Su Ce shook his head and said, "No! Brother Ju! What did you find? ”

Zhang Ju replied: "Occasionally, I find it laughing, but when I look at it, everything is as usual." ”

Xu Yuling on the side became nervous and blurted out: "Zhang Ju! Don't talk nonsense, I'm cowardly! ”

While they were chatting, the statues on the left and right suddenly laughed at the same time. Then they opened their lips almost at the same time, and a stream of green gas erupted from their mouths.

Su Ce's mind flashed Zhang Ju's words before, and he immediately spoke: "Wouldn't it be better for us to go through it directly?" Why do you have to leave the door open? ”

Zhang Ju smiled slightly: "That's right!" I'm confused by the previous mechanism! ”

They were still in the previous order, Zhang Ju was in front, Su Ce was behind, and the three of them quickly passed through the stone door of the tomb and entered the tomb. Behind the stone gate, there is also a tomb road. The tomb passage is very wide, a few points wider than the stone gate outside.

The tomb road is a rock wall, the rock wall is polished very smooth, on the rock wall, carved words and patterns, illustrated and vivid, as if telling something.

On the wall on the right, there is a turtle that stands out, its head raised, and auspicious clouds are spit out from its mouth, and its back is carved with a strange pattern.

Su Ce was the first to speak: "These words seem to be Western Xia characters, it seems that this tomb is undoubtedly Li Zhongge's!" ”

Zhang Ju looked at the rock walls on both sides, stretched out his right hand and touched it, it was extremely smooth, and said in surprise: "How much manpower and material resources did it take to dig such a tomb back then?" ”

Su Ce said: "In ancient times, these princes and generals were really laborious and costly when they died, and this Li Zhongge's tomb is comparable to the Lishan Imperial Mausoleum!" ”

Zhang Ju nodded and said: "This difficulty is much more difficult than the Lishan Imperial Mausoleum, not to mention the tomb here, just the peripheral organs, are also dug out of the rock wall, I suspect that the legend is only partially true, and the excavation time of this tomb will be many years in advance." ”

Su Ce said, "Yes! At that time, technology was not as advanced as it is now, and it was not possible to dig such a tomb and such a tomb in a few years. ”

Xu Yuling said: "Anyway, we can't see anything, let's move on, the main tomb is our goal." ”

Zhang Ju and Su Ce nodded at the same time, and then the three of them continued to walk forward, they walked along the current tomb road, more than a hundred meters, and suddenly a crossroads appeared in front of them, they stopped and looked at the intersection in front of them. Su Ce waved his hand and said, "It's a crossroads again, this Li Zhongge really has a soft spot for crossroads!" ”

Zhang Ju said: "Everyone has some unique hobbies in their lives, and this crossroads is a good way to be simple and confusing. ”

Xu Yuling looked at Zhang Ju with a smile on her face and said, "Zhang Ju! So what are your unique hobbies? ”

Zhang Ju turned his head to look at her and said gently: "A unique hobby!" Love you! ”

Xu Yuling snorted and said, "The little mouth is so sweet!" ”

Su Ce stomped his feet and said, "Can you stop showing off at this time?" In case Li Zhongge, like me, can't stand it anymore and jokes with us, we will have to explain here. ”

Xu Yuling glanced at Su Ce and said, "Just show, who made you a single dog!" ”

Su Ce was stunned for a moment, turned his head to look at Zhang Ju, only to see him touch his chin, lift the frame on the bridge of his nose, and open his mouth to say, "Which direction do we choose now?" ”

Su Ce thought for a while and said, "Go straight ahead!" It's all in the tomb, so don't you still use that trap! ”

Zhang Ju shook his head and said: "It's hard to say, what if we use it, in the end, we bumped into each other, turned around, and returned to the trap array, everything was in vain!" ”

Just as they hesitated, a dark figure floated past them and headed straight for the entrance to the tomb on the right. Xu Yuling looked nervous, her legs trembled, and said, "Did you see a dark shadow just now?" ”

Zhang Ju and Su Ce nodded at the same time, and said in unison: "See!" ”

Xu Yuling's figure flashed, and she hid behind Zhang Ju, grabbing his arm tightly with both hands. Su Ce continued: "This black shadow is afraid that we will be entangled and doesn't know where to go, so he came to show us the way? ”

Zhang Ju replied: "It's possible, it's not ......"

"Huh...... Swish...... Who......"

A few more black shadows floated away, and Zhang Ju continued: "I don't think it's pointing the way, they seem to be escaping." ”

"Huh...... Swish...... Who......"

This time there are a lot more than the last time, and it is estimated that there are more than twenty dark shadows. Su Ce was surprised: "What is the situation?" ”

Zhang Ju opened his mouth and said: "I guess something is chasing them, we will wait here to see what it is?" ”

Su Ce was a little puzzled: "What is this black shadow?" Like a living thing. ”

Zhang Ju touched his chin with his right hand, thinking back to the figure that flew down from the moon before, and said in his heart: "Could these black shadows that are escaping have something to do with that figure?" But the figure has been in for more than a day, how could it be that we just happened to bump into it? This is a coincidence! ”

Xu Yuling suddenly spoke: "I have seen this black shadow in the family biography "Xu Cong's Records". ”

Zhang Ju was a little curious: "What is that?" ”

Xu Yuling recalled: "There is an introduction in "Soul Chapter", the soul is also the soul of people! People have three souls: one is called fetal light, the second is called cool spirit, and the third is called ghost. Among them, the ghosts are all dark, just like those black shadows. I suspect there's something in here that sucks souls. ”

Su Ce was puzzled: "It's been seven or eight hundred years here, how can there be any remnants of the soul?" ”

Xu Yuling was a little uneasy and said: "I don't know, maybe it's the souls of those who sent the funeral, but the souls can easily pass out of this tomb, but they don't seem to be able to get out." ”

Zhang Ju turned his head to look at her and said, "You mean there is something outside this tomb that prevents them from going out?" ”

Xu Yuling nodded and said, "It's very possible, otherwise they would have gone to the underworld for reincarnation." ”

Su Ce opened his mouth and said: "Let's wait and see what happens, anyway, they all come in, and they will always find the reason!" ”

The two of them nodded, and the three of them stood still, silent, their eyes fixed on the entrance to the left of the passageway.

About half an hour passed, and there were many black shadows shuttling by, and finally a huge black shadow slowly came out of the hole. It's huge because it completely fills the entrance on the left. It continued to move forward slowly, and Su Ce said a little strangely: "This thing is like a fog, you can see that its shape is not fixed. ”

Indeed, as Sutzer said, when the black shadow came out of the entrance on the left, it filled the entire intersection. At this point, some of the fog on its periphery was flowing outward, some of which had already flowed to the side where they were.

As the shadow moved on, the mist that had flowed elsewhere gradually flowed into the entrance on the right, following it.

Zhang Ju was a little puzzled, turned his head to look at Xu Yuling and said, "What the hell is this?" ”

Xu Yuling shook her head and said, "I don't know, there is no such thing recorded in the ancient books I have read." ”

Su Ce turned his head to look at her and asked, "What are the soul-sucking people?" ”

Xu Yuling searched in her mind, and after a few seconds, she replied: "This is a lot, it is said that in the eighteen layers of hell in the underworld, there are many things that live by sucking souls. ”

Su Ce remembered what Dawa had said before, and said, "At that time, the people who returned to the village in a mad way were probably sucked souls. ”

Xu Yuling nodded and said: "It's very possible, it's useless for us to discuss it here, do you want to go over and have a look?" ”

Zhang Ju looked at the distant black shadow on the right and said, "Why don't we go forward first, I have a hunch that the tomb road in front leads to the main tomb." Don't try to clash with the shadow just yet, if it's a difficult Lord, it will waste our time. ”

Xu Yuling and Su Ce nodded slightly, and the three of them walked straight to the front. As they entered the entrance, the width of the tomb was the same as the previous one, dug out of the rock wall, and the walls on both sides were still carved with many words and patterns.

There is some change in the floor under your feet, and the ground in front of you is uneven, and there will be some discomfort on the soles of your feet when you walk on it. And here on the ground, it is much smoother, and there are some shallow nicks on the ground.

Zhang Ju squatted down and looked carefully, only to see that the notches were square, like blue bricks spread on the ground one by one.

Zhang Ju said: "Strange! The ground here is made with great care, while the ground of the outer tomb is much rougher. ”

Su Ce thought for a while and said, "Maybe the outside is not finished yet, and Li Zhongge will return to the west!" ”

Zhang Ju nodded slightly and said, "There is this possibility, let's continue to look forward." ”

They stopped paying attention to the sides and feet of the tomb and continued to walk forward. At the top of the tomb not far behind them, a pair of eyes looked directly at them, glowing with a faint green light, keeping a certain distance from them.

This tomb road is much longer than the previous one, they walked nearly 400 meters, and finally came to the end of the tomb road, at the end, what appeared in front of them was a stone gate, the stone gate was about two meters wide and about three meters high.

Instead of figuring out how to open the door, they continued to walk forward, and after a few seconds passed through the stone door and came inside. The eyes at the top of the tomb stopped in front of the stone gate, and no longer moved forward, as if looking at the stone gate with some regret.

After they entered the stone gate, there was a square tomb inside, and in the middle of the tomb was a coffin more than half a person high, the bottom of the coffin was on the ground, and there was nothing around. ”

Then he spoke: "Su Ce! Look around for other doors! ”

Su Ce responded and began to look for it, and Zhang Ju walked to the coffin, stretched out his right hand and gently touched the coffin, like fine marble, the coffin had some nicks, like words.

In less than half a minute, Su Ce came to Zhang Ju's side, shook his head and said, "There is no exit except for the door where we entered." ”

After hearing this, Zhang Ju took his right hand back, opened his mouth and said, "It seems that this is a dead end, and we are estimated to return along the road." ”

Su Ce looked at the coffin in the middle, his heart was a little itchy, and he immediately spoke: "Brother Ju! Shall we open the coffin? ”

Zhang Ju shook his head slightly and said, "Don't open it first, I'll reach in and probe the bottom first, even if there is anything, I can react immediately!" ”

Xu Yuling said with a worried face: "Zhang Ju! Be careful! ”

Zhang Ju turned his head to look at her, and said calmly: "It's okay, you two retreat!" ”

Xu Yuling and Su Ce took two or three steps back, and at this time, Zhang Ju was left standing next to the middle of the coffin, he stretched out his right hand and slowly passed through the outer coffin, only to see his right hand sink into the coffin inch by inch.

After a while, his right hand went deep into the coffin, and he felt something unusual, so he quickly withdrew his right hand. However, as soon as his right hand moved, he felt that something grabbed his right hand and couldn't pull it out at all.

He secretly said in his heart: "It's not good! There's something inside! I can even hold my blurred hand! ”

On the Hades Hall in the underworld, Hades sat on a chair with a sad face, staring at the Red Emperor next to him. The Red Emperor's face was ugly, and he said a little angrily: "Two months have passed, and we haven't attacked the Heavenly Court yet, so we wasted a great opportunity. ”

Hades said helplessly: "It's not that I'm afraid, but that black and white impermanence is now like a stone sinking into the sea, and there is no news." Nanjing has become the same as the capital of Xu, there is not a single living thing, all this is weird, we must find out, in order to attack the heavenly court with peace of mind, otherwise what moths will emerge from it, we will fall short. ”

The Red Emperor said: "But in the past two months, we haven't found out anything, and now not only Nanjing, but also the surrounding cities are gradually becoming dead cities one by one. ”

Hades got up from his chair, looked at him and said, "It's not the time yet, we have to wait for the world to become like the capital, and then attack the heavenly court, so that we can be more sure, at that time, the Jade Emperor will have no time to take care of us, and his world will be gone." ”

The Red Emperor was a little anxious and said, "But how long will it take?" ”

Hades said, "I said the Red Emperor! Don't worry, if you can't bear it, you will make a big plan! Now is the right time for us, your team on the fifth layer of Hell needs to practice more, after all, they have been away from the battlefield for many years. ”

The Red Emperor's impatient heart gradually calmed down, but he was still a little worried, and asked, "When will the Julong of Buzhou Mountain come over?" I've been waiting for him for two months. ”

Hades smiled and said, "Before, the judge said that in two or three days, he would lead a large army to the underworld, and I have already informed him of the changes in the world, and now the heavenly realm and the underworld will not be affected." ”

After hearing this, the Red Emperor smiled and said, "That's good!" ”

Suddenly, a ghost messenger walked into the hall of Hades, he looked at the Red Emperor next to Hades, and stopped talking. Seeing this, Hades spoke, "There is something, but it doesn't hurt to say it." ”

After hearing this, the ghost said, "King Hades, something has happened in hell!" ”

Hades looked surprised and said, "How come? Take me to see it! ”
