Chapter 9: The Secret Room of the Ghost Valley
The two coffins are surrounded by ice, the one on the left is larger, the carved pattern is more beautiful, and it is slightly higher in height. The three of them found a shiny sword hanging from the stone door facing them, with a water snake carved into the hilt. The ice on the stone door and even in the entire ice cellar seemed to emanate from its side.
"Ice Spirit Sword." Wei Zhuang recognized it at a glance, "This turned out to be the Supreme Sword of the Qi Kingdom, how could it be here?" ”
Xiao Han was about to reach out to touch it, but was stopped by Wei Zhuang: "The Ice Spirit Sword is the coldest thing, ordinary cultivators will suffer from cold poison when they touch it, and the cold poison will enter the body, consuming all the calories of the person, if you touch the Ice Spirit Sword for too long, the true qi of the whole body will be sucked away by this sword." Eventually, the sword-wielder was frozen from the inside out. Wei Zhuang looked left and right, "However, it seems that when you go out from here, there is only the stone gate behind the sword behind." ”
Xiao Han withdrew his hand. "Let's go see those two coffins first!" Gagne led her away from the icy sword.
They walked first to the large coffin on the left, it was thickly wrapped in ice, and they looked around him closely, but they found nothing that could reveal anything about the people in the coffin.
"Looking at the appearance of this coffin, compared to the one next to it, it should be the highest status in the Ghost Valley to be used." Xiao Han looked at the gems set on it and said.
Gai Nie and Wei Zhuang exchanged a look of sudden realization, and the two knelt down: "The ancestor master Wang Xu is on top, and he is worshiped by his disciples." ”
The ice on the wall near the coffin suddenly melted away, and the wall opened in the middle, revealing the first small secret room here, which contained two bookshelves, each with some bamboo slips.
"Will those be Guiguzi?" Wei Zhuang wanted to go in and get a bamboo slip to read, but he didn't move, afraid that there would be some mechanism, Gai Nie took an ice cube from his side and threw it in, the ice cube was split into many pieces in mid-air, fell to the ground, and immediately turned into steam.
Wei Zhuang, who was standing in front, couldn't help but swallow his saliva and moved back a few times.
"There are a total of fourteen articles in the whole book of "Guiguzi", and it is estimated that there are only two bamboo slips on these two shelves, so what is protected must be the lost Zhuan, and it is chaotic. These bamboo slips are neatly placed, and there is such a thick dust on them, the ancestor has been eighty-eight years since his death, the second generation of Guiguzi Zhang Yi was directly taught by the grandfather, these bamboo slips were put in here before the master Zhang Yi should have seen them all, and my father and I have only been here for ten years, I have not seen my father come here for ten years, if my father has secretly touched these bamboo slips in these ten years, the dust on it will not be so thick. ”
"Eighty-eight years. These two most important chapters have been in the dust for eighty-eight years. Ganie sighed.
"Master Zu is willing to let the book he wrote be sealed here forever?" Wei Zhuang said, "I wonder if Master Zu can let us go and have a look." Wei Zhuang showed a pity in his eyes.
"You'll have to ask for this yourself." Xiao Han looked at the frozen coffin.
"How do you ask?"
Gai Nie stepped forward and said: "Master Zu, my junior brother Wei Zhuang and I studied under Guigu, although we can learn swordsmanship, but we don't know anything about vertical and horizontal strategies, I hope that Master Zu will give you advice." ”
The secret room on that side suddenly closed the stone door.
"How?" Wei Zhuang patted the closed stone door, and the ice next to him was immediately wrapped, and he retracted his hand.
Gai Nie and Wei Zhuang were frustrated.
"Look!" Xiao Han pointed to the stone gate that had just frozen.
The words on the solid ice on the stone door appeared: You don't need to wait, don't worry about it.
"What does Master Zu mean by this? You can open the secret room, but you don't let people see what's inside. ”
"Didn't he say you didn't need to?" Xiao Han looked at the words on it.
"How would Master Zu know if we need it or not?" Gagne thought it was strange.
"He maybe, just knows." Xiao Han smiled.
The three of them left the big coffin of the ancestor and walked to the coffin on this side. Wei Zhuang and Gai Niebai had met their master, and the secret room on the other side was also opened.
"Master Zhang Yi once served as the prime minister of the Qin State, and there must be a lot of precious things." Wei Zhuang guessed.
When the door of the secret room was wide open, they were stunned, except for some bamboo slips, there were some miscellaneous items piled up in a mess, which were not valuable.
"Why is Master's life so bleak?"
"However, when the master was alive, he did a lot of important things, and that was enough." Ganie exclaimed.
"That Master Zhang Yi fell under your father's hands?" Wei Zhuang thought of this, and he asked Xiao Han.
"It's not." Xiao Han shook his head, "After Master Zhang Yi retired from officialdom, he was killed by my father's senior brother. By the time my father arrived, his brother had already left. ”
"How so?"
"Daddy's senior brother didn't learn a hundred-step flying sword, he was proud and arrogant and felt that he was no worse than his father, so he held a grudge against Master Zhang Yi, and finally waited until the end ......"
They left the place where Master Zhang Yi was lying with respect and sadness, and the door of the secret room was closed at some point.
The three of them stood in front of the Ice Spirit Sword again, Gai Nie and Wei Zhuang made eye contact with who was going to take the sword down, and after communicating for a long time, the two of them actually shot at the same time.
"Xiaozhuang, I'll come!" Gai Nie stretched out his hand forward, but was grabbed by Wei Zhuang. Wei Zhuang said: "Senior brother, you just need to protect Xiao Han." "The two of them were pulling and pulling there, and they didn't make a decision for a long time.
Xiao Han silently stretched out his fingers, his fingertips touched the sword body of the Ice Spirit Sword, the ice next to the Ice Spirit Sword began to dissipate, Xiao Han swiped his fingers along the sword body, and the Ice Spirit Sword emitted a soft light.
The stone wall opened to one side, and the Ice Spirit Sword slowly moved to the side with the stone wall. Xiao Han looked at the sword and said, "I really want to take you away." However, you belong to this place, and you deserve to be with your true owner. ”
When passing through the stone gate on this side, "Xiaohan, how did you do it?" Ganie asked curiously.
"I just feel like it likes me and knows what I'm thinking."
"Presumably that sword has a fate with you." Wei Zhuang said.
They left that ice room and came to another. There was only one coffin there, but it was not wrapped in ice.
"This must have been for my father, or my father himself prepared it for himself, there was no one there. So, Dad knows this place, then he must have been here. Xiao Han looked back at the stone wall that had just been closed, and found that there was no mechanism there that could open the other side, "But Dad hasn't been there." ”
Xiao Han walked towards the ice wall on the side of the coffin.
