Chapter Ninety-Eight: The Bones of the Ear Chamber
"Impossible." Moon Shadow Fuxian said in an affirmative tone, "The Drought Fish is a zombie supreme, and it takes thousands of years to raise a corpse to transform into a corpse, and it is extremely demanding on the environment for raising corpses. Judging from the letters and ancestral teachings left by your ancestors in Wujia Village, this Longshan evil spirit should have begun to form a hundred years ago, and there is a difference of 900 years in time, so it must not be the drought we have seen recently. ”
"There is also a certain amount of truth, but if this drought is not the Longshan evil spirit mentioned in the superstition of the Wu ancestors, then where is the real Longshan evil spirit that the people of Wujia Village have been guarding against for a hundred years?" Wu Zhiyuan pondered for a moment and asked.
This question made the two of them fall into hard thought, and they were speechless for a while, Moon Shadow Fuxian looked at the relief pattern on the stone wall, and suddenly a flash of inspiration flashed in her mind, and she guessed: "There is only one possibility, this so-called drought is the evil spirit of Longshan, and he is not a drought at all." ”
"Not a drought?" Wu Zhiyuan exclaimed, Moon Shadow Fuxian's inference overturned all the previous understandings between the two, and he questioned, "But he can transform into a human form and suck human blood, what is the explanation for this?" ”
This is really difficult to explain, among the demons, only the fox fairy knows how to change, but the fox does not like to eat human blood, and the drought is only a legendary thing, no one has ever seen it since ancient times. It was a bit reckless to make an inference just because he could conjure. Moon Shadow Fuxian said cautiously.
"By the way, he still has the ability to regenerate." Wu Zhiyuan suddenly remembered the regeneration of the drought's arm, and described, "I once cut off one of his arms, and he was able to grow another one in the blink of an eye." ”
Moon Shadow Fuxian didn't say anything when he heard this, but a worried look flashed between his eyebrows.
The two lingered in front of the Blood Shadow Demon Knife relief for a moment, and Wu Zhiyuan motioned for the Moon Shadow Fuxian to go back. Just now, in order to let her see the stone carvings of the Blood Shadow Demon Knife, Wu Zhiyuan directly skipped over many relief patterns, which he had seen in his dreams or when he was out of his body.
With Wu Zhiyuan's guidance, Moon Shadow Fuxian was even more surprised by the next few stone carving patterns, the poisonous insects and beasts were depicted vividly, vividly, and what was even more shocking was that most of these insects and beasts Moon Shadow Fuxian knew about them, all of them were Gu worms used by the Black Descending Gate to refine Gu poison.
Scorpions, snakes, centipedes, spiders, and toads are all poisonous, and there are also carved corpse insects, leeches, corpse turtles and other smaller insects, the pattern is realistic, as if the real worm is attached to the stone wall, which is breathtaking.
"Moon Shadow, look at this." Seeing that the Moon Shadow Fuxian was lingering in front of those poisonous insect stone carvings, Wu Zhiyuan called softly in front.
Moon Shadow Fuxian walked over a few steps, only to see that where Wu Zhiyuan's finger was pointing, it was a monster pattern with a strange face and a demonic aura, the monster had a wolf chest on its face, fleshy wings on its back, and a snake tail was dragged below its chest, with colorful scales and very weird.
The most striking thing is the monster's face, with slender eyebrows and slightly open jade lips, petite and cute, as if smiling but not smiling, as if a thousand words were immediately poured out, extremely charming.
"Do you have any impressions?" Wu Zhiyuan mentioned on the side.
"Snakes?" Moon Shadow Fuxian blurted out, she had seen this strange beast in the book, and she had also seen it with her own eyes under the cliff in the north of Haiyang City.
There are no wonders in the Great Thousand Ages, and many strange beasts in ancient times have become extinct now, leaving only the rendering of pen and ink in the book. But there are still many unknown monsters that still survive, living in the depths of the ocean, or in thousand-year-old lakes, or in primeval forests. Rao was like this, when he saw this giant stone carving relief, Moon Shadow Fuxian was still very shocked.
"Look at this again." Wu Zhiyuan pulled the sleeve of Moon Shadow Fuxian.
"This ...... This is the nine-tailed dragon snake? Moon Shadow Fuxian was stunned when he saw a relief pattern next to the snake, depicting a monster with a snake head and a dragon body.
The nine-tailed dragon snake is also a legendary extinct beast, there are star records in some ancient books, but they are not comprehensive, the moon shadow Fu Xian only knows that the blood shadow magic knife is made of extraterrestrial iron with thirty-six kinds of strange poisons, and among these thirty-six kinds of strange poisons, there is a bile poison of the nine-tailed dragon snake. She had seen a record of the nine-tailed dragon snake in the collection of the Black Descending Gate, but its true face was the first time she had seen it.
The pattern on this stone wall is exactly the same as the nine-tailed dragon snake recorded in the book, so the Moon Shadow Fuxian can recognize it at the first glance when he sees the pattern.
"This is the Nine-Tailed Dragon Snake?" Wu Zhiyuan couldn't help but ask in surprise.
"Hmm." Moon Shadow Fuxian responded, but her mind was immersed in the question of who carved this stone relief, and suddenly, she asked Wu Zhiyuan in confusion, "You seem to be very familiar with this place, have you been here before?" ”
Wu Zhiyuan didn't know how to answer, he thought for a long time before saying: "I don't know if I really came here, according to Master Wuchen, I should have been in this place when my soul was out of my body, but then I always saw every scene here in my dreams, so I know a little bit about the situation in this cave." ”
"After a person loses his soul, if his soul is called back, then what the soul sees after leaving the body will indeed reappear in the dream, and Master Wuchen's statement should be true." Moon Shadow Fuxian pondered.
"There is another place I have seen in my dreams, and you come with me." Wu Zhiyuan suddenly remembered that there was an ear chamber in the cave, so he dragged the Moon Shadow Fuxian and continued to move inside.
After passing the stone carving of the Blood Shadow Demon Knife and then walking inside, there was no longer any relief pattern on the stone wall, replaced by a smooth wall like a mirror, and continued to move inward for about twelve meters, before Wu Zhiyuan found the ear chamber in the depths of his memory.
Before he reached the door of the ear chamber, Wu Zhiyuan suddenly slowed down, and at the same time blocked the Moon Shadow Fuxian with his arm, because in his memory, there was a terrifying corpse at the door of the ear chamber.
Gently moving to the door of the ear chamber, Wu Zhiyuan really found the skeleton skeleton, only to see that the skeleton's body had already decomposed, the bones were hung with tattered cloth clothes, the waist was straight, and he was holding a peachwood sword in his left hand, standing at the door, and his standing posture was exactly the same as what he saw in his dream.
Moon Shadow Fuxian walked to the skeleton, looked at it carefully for a moment, and basically understood the identity of this skeleton when it was born, she turned to Wu Zhiyuan and said, "This is a Taoist priest. ”
"Daoist?" Wu Zhiyuan couldn't help but be taken aback when he heard the words of Moon Shadow Fuxian, he was very puzzled that there would be a pair of Taoist bones in this cave.
"Look at the peach wood sword he holds in his left hand, which is a Taoist magic weapon to drive away ghosts and suppress evil spirits, and he has a Zhuge Jiuliang scarf on his head, and he is wearing a gossip robe, although his clothes have rotted, but he can still be recognized, so according to these signs, he must be a person in the Taoist sect." Moon Shadow Fuxian reasoned.
Wu Zhiyuan looked at the skeleton behind the Moon Shadow Fuxian when he heard this, and nodded slightly, he didn't know much about the Taoist priest's behavior, so he was powerless to judge, but he felt that the inference of the Moon Shadow Fuxian was very reasonable.
At this moment, Wu Zhiyuan suddenly saw that the skeleton seemed to move slightly, and he was startled, and suddenly pulled the Moon Shadow Fuxian back to his side.
