Chapter 99: The Third Witch (7)
Walking on the bluestone road behind the second bronze gate, he remembered that the phosphorescence on the ground was all made up of piles of white bones and carrion, and Zhu Beichen would unconsciously feel cold.
The hallway here is different from the previous one in that the two walls are solid, and there is no small room for the living corpses, so it is not so scary in comparison.
I don't know how long it has been going forward, but the concept of time has faded underground, and the three thousand only feel that according to the distance, it is almost across the bottom of the entire Wushan Mountain, and it is very likely that the ground above the head is the Heishui River, or even the Black Miao House.
San Qian couldn't help but be taken aback by his thoughts, if this was really the case, not only would the belly of Wushan Mountain be empty, but the strata under which he lived on weekdays would be hollow.
The two gradually discovered a strange phenomenon, or a strange architectural structure, the bluestone road is getting wider and wider, and the walkway that could only accommodate three people in parallel can now appear spacious even if it is ten people in parallel, and there is more than enough rubbing. The same is true for the walls on both sides, which open in an inverted figure-eight shape, and are no longer visually oppressive.
If you look closely, there is no mural painting and carving on the wall, it is completely bare, the density of the wall is extremely high, and it is hard to knock on it, you can imagine that the back of the wall is absolutely solid, and the sound quality is strong.
Along the way, Gu Ling's facial expression was almost like a sculpture, unchanged for eternity, dragging his body mechanically leading the way in front, and the bluestone road was neat and flat.
Zhu Beichen originally expected whether he would occasionally step on some mechanism, and then the flying arrows were shot out of the hole in the wall, and then because Sanqian and Gu Ling couldn't dodge, they were shot into a ball of humanoid hedgehogs. It's a pity that everything he fantasized about didn't happen, and along the way, there was only the footsteps of three people stepping on the bluestone road, which was dull and depressing.
Well! Another bronze door, won't it, Zhu Beichen can't accept it emotionally, this shouldn't be a bronze door. I saw that this gate is about five meters wide and ten meters high, and the whole door is a bronze giant gate. Layer after layer of doors, what are you trying to do, the first layer of doors outside was originally intended to prevent living corpses from running out, these triple doors, I'm afraid they are used to close dinosaurs.
What's behind this bronze gate?
Zhu Beichen stared at Gu Ling with interest, I don't know how thick this door is, according to the size, how can this bronze giant door be as thick as one meter, and the weight must be more than 100 tons. No matter how wicked Gu Ling is, can he kick open the door like a hill?
The jade card turned out to be a jade card!
The warm jade color emitted a faint heater, which was slightly cold at the beginning, and then the warmth hit.
In Heishui River, in Miaojiang, only the patriarch of one clan is qualified to use jade as a nameplate. The jade is square, the thickness is about four centimeters, and it is tied around the waist on weekdays, so it can be called a jade pendant, and it can also be called a jade plate. And the jade plate Zhu Beichen held by Gu Ling was very familiar, because he also had one in his hand. It symbolizes the lofty status of Heishui River Miao Wu and the supreme majesty and power.
The jade plate in Gu Ling's hand was stored in the wooden box, and even the appearance and texture of the wooden box looked exactly the same as his own at a glance. As soon as the wooden box was opened, Gu Linggang took out the jade card, only to see that the jade card was white in an instant, and the jade body shook violently, and there was a faint feeling of coming out of his hand.
Gu Ling looked at Zhu Beichen in surprise, his eyes were sharp, as if he wanted to see through this young junior. But there was nothing unusual about Zhu Beichen, he didn't know what Gu Ling wanted to see in him. Her demeanor seemed to be contemplative, and soon changed into an epiphany posture, "I understand, it turns out that she gave you all the close-fitting jade pendants." ”
This piece of jade pendant held by Gu Ling in his hand, the pattern carving is almost the same mold as all of Zhu Beichen's jade pendants, the difference is that the inscription on the jade is "Tong Jia Muqiu".
Hiss! After Sanqian and Zhu Beichen saw it clearly, they were all gasped in horror. Ten years ago, Tong Jia Muqiu's personal jade plaque represented the respected identity of a black Miao wizard, just like the talisman held by the ancient generals, and the jade plaque was the talisman of the clan witch for Hei Miao.
San Qian said that ten years ago, when Tong Jia Muqiu died, Gu Ling once dived back to the Heishui River late at night and knelt in a dark place outside the bamboo building for a whole night. Now it seems that she is most likely going to get this jade pendant.
She must have discovered the secret of the entrance to Wushan, and she had gone deep into this place forty years ago, so she knew everything here, but she was suffering from the last bronze giant gate, and she couldn't open this bronze giant gate without the personal jade plate of the patriarchs who guarded Wushan for generations. What can be concluded is that forty years ago, she encountered the unthinkable here, which directly caused her to go crazy for decades; Or maybe she was pretending to be crazy at all, she knew that Tong Jia Muqiu would definitely know everything that happened in Wushan, and would not forgive her, with her strength, it was impossible to get the key to open the bronze giant door, so she endured it until Tong Jia Muqiu died. She thought that the opportunity had come, so she rushed back to the Heishui River overnight and stole the jade plate while the other party was dying.
Zhu Beichen made two assumptions, almost thinking that they were reasonable, otherwise it would be impossible to explain how the jade plaque that should have been turned into jade powder and sprinkled into the coffin with Tong Jiamuqiu's burial could appear here. But he would rather believe that she has been really crazy for decades, otherwise it will be really terrible, how many secrets are hidden in a woman who will endure for decades, pretend to be crazy and stupid, and how huge her requests must be to do this.
"How did you have Tong Jia Muqiu's jade plate?" Zhu Beichen's tone was more like questioning on behalf of the owner of the jade plaque, and even he himself was confused, perhaps thinking that questioning a thief should be righteous words.
What responded to him was Gu Ling's cold back.
The bronze gate is no longer carved with any portrait of the murderer. On the contrary, it is amazing that the entire gate is engraved with dense obscure symbols, as well as Taoist charms.
Jin Wen, Jin Wen again! This kind of writing has appeared countless times in Zhu Beichen's life, such as the first volume of the Yin Fu Sutra of Xuanao, the stone carvings in front of the Jiuqu River Valley, and the bronze giant gate underground. Is Jin Wen really a medium tool to communicate all mysterious existences?
As for the fragmentary charms, each small piece of gold will be interspersed with a charm engraving, and each charm will have a different shape, presumably for the same purpose. But it forms a paragraph with a piece of golden text.
He recognized only one of the charms, which were carved like evil spirits, and shaped like a fierce spirit. That's it, the Soul Suppression Talisman. In the second volume of the Yin Fu Sutra, every time this kind of spell is depicted, it will inevitably consume the life of the spell caster itself, and it is actually a spell that harms others and is not beneficial to himself.
Who is the person behind the door to suppress, or what is the suppression, it is worth casting a spell to cast a vicious suppression spell at the cost of his life!
