Chapter 31: The Broken Dragon Stone
[Xiao Li's 14-year-old sign-in is a good habit, remember to come every day~~~ haha! ] 】
When I heard the words of this handsome man, I was horrified and could not speak. Eighteen Layers of Hell? Is Huangquan Kingdom in the eighteenth layer of hell? I don't think it could be more. Outrageous without even the slightest credibility.
At least I can't believe it.
I looked at him and couldn't help but sneer in my heart, is it necessary to be so shocked and frightened? And there is nothing special about these stone pillars in front of you, right?
The handsome man seemed to see the expression on my face, and immediately said to me, "You don't understand, what do these stone pillars represent in the Huangquan Kingdom. ”
I looked at him and immediately asked him, "Then what do these stone pillars represent?" ”
The handsome man's face immediately changed when he looked at me, and he shook his head and said, "On these twelve stone pillars, they all represent a symbol, and this symbol is the symbol of the twelve demon gods of hell. ”
The Twelve Demon Gods? I'm almost going to laugh out loud, the Twelve Demon Gods of Hell? Because in my opinion, this is a deception to a child or a myth. Take 10,000 steps back and say, even if these stone pillars really represent the twelve demon gods of hell?
It doesn't mean that this Huangquan country is in hell, right?
He looked at me and said, "There are so many things in this world that ordinary people can't touch. ”
"And you may not know that Devil's City is the closest place to hell in the legend, and this tomb palace under our feet is the entrance to hell."
"How is that possible?" I found that the more this person said, the more outrageous it became, and there was no scientific basis at all. Although I know a lot of unknown things and things that are underground that cannot be explained by science.
He looked at me and said in a stiff tone, "I can only say that the ghost jade on the drawbridge and the symbols on the stone pillars are all from hell. Believe it or not, you'll find out when the time comes. ”
I was so stunned that I couldn't even speak. I turned my head to look at the little white face. found that he was actually looking at the stone pillar in a daze.
The whole person is like a statue, motionless, I can't help but wonder, you say that this kind of stone bump thing is not good-looking, according to the fat man's words, it is not even worth a few copper plates, what is good-looking? Could it be that this so-called 'Twelve Demon Gods' of Hell has other hidden secrets?
The handsome man also went to study the stone pillars, I was bored alone, and I couldn't see anything in those stone pillars, so I touched my head and immediately spun around.
After turning around, I found that there seemed to be a closed stone door in the stone pillar of the 'Twelve Demon Gods', and I estimated that as long as I entered this stone gate, it would be the inside of the Dragon Tower Hall. All the treasures and stuff are in it.
But the stone door was closed. I guess there's some kind of mechanism or something, but I don't know about it.
And what surprised me was that there were a pair of stone lions standing on both sides of this stone gate, the workmanship was not very fine, but I could still recognize it at a glance, this pair of stone lions was Pixiu, one of the nine sons of Longsheng, who was in charge of the master's town.
This thing is said to be because the Jade Emperor who violated the rules of heaven in order to punish it, he demoted it to the mortal, and also sealed its asshole, so this Pixiu eats the wealth of all directions without spitting, so it is favored by some dignitaries.
And this pair of Pixiu is a male and a female, and the female's closed-mouthed protection represents the ancient meaning of male superiority and female inferiority.
"This is not Pixiu in charge of the town." I don't know when the handsome man actually appeared behind me.
He looked at me and smiled evilly, "This thing is called the guardian of the ancient tomb, and it is used to ward off evil spirits. ”
My face was slightly red, and I quibbled, "I know this is not Pixiu......"
He looked at me suspiciously and said, "Really? ”
I quickly diverted the topic: "Do you know the origin of this pair of stone lions?" ”
He looked at me and chuckled, "You know. This thing, if you look closely, you think it looks like a lion, right? ”
I nodded, much like a lion.
But he shook his head and said, "You are only right, it is still like a unicorn and many other divine beasts." In fact, this is deliberate, and only in this way can it play the role of a tomb. And it's not called a stone lion, it's called 'four dislikes'. ”
I nodded, and when I looked closely, I realized that it was a bit like the four.
But at this time, the little white face actually appeared behind me, and I even wondered if they said yes.
"Nonsense, who told you that the two stone statues on both sides of the tomb door are the tomb?" The little white face walked over, not showing any mercy to the handsome man, and when I heard this, the whole person couldn't help laughing out loud.
The handsome man looked at me, blushing and didn't say anything. He glared at the little white face and said, "I'm talking nonsense? So what do you tell these two 'four dislikes' that are not the tombs of the town? ”
Actually, I also think it looks like a town tomb, these two stone statues are very scary to carve. It looks hideous and terrifying. I guess it was carved out by the owner of the tomb to scare us tomb robbers, and the owner of the tomb wanted us to stop here, which is also a warning, but it is dangerous to go in.
This kind of thing in the tomb, grandpa still said, as far as his old man had encountered it in the Song tomb before, but the Song tomb was not placed with a stone statue, but a pair of lifelike grimace warriors carved on the tomb wall, which was used to town the tomb.
The little white face looked at us, did not speak, I saw that he actually walked step by step in front of the pair of stone statues, I saw him tinker a few times on the head of the stone statues, I heard a sound, click, I thought it was the mechanism of the stone door, but it turned out to be not, but the stone statue actually moved.
Then he turned his head to look at us and said, "This is the sealing stone of the ancient tomb." Behold, beneath this statue is the iron chain. ”
Xiao Baimian raised his hand and pointed at it, and I looked in the direction of my finger, and sure enough, under this stone statue was an extremely thick bronze chain, which seemed to be inserted very deeply.
I was shocked: "Seal the stone ......"
This time, the handsome man seemed to have learned to be obedient, and he didn't say anything, just stood aside and looked at the little white face, as if he was waiting for him to explain.
"These two stone bumps are sealing stones?" I can't believe that these two ugly stone bumps could be sealed stones.
The sealing stone was recorded in my grandfather's notes. I recall, and I know some information about the sealing stone. You must know that the owner of the ancient tomb hates the tomb robber the most. Therefore, they often set up many traps and traps to stop the tomb robbers.
Grandpa said that many owners of ancient tombs would do this, and seal the tomb door with a big stone, so that tomb robbers could not enter. Moreover, this kind of boulder that seals the door has a name, called 'Broken Dragon Stone', and the door sealed by 'Broken Dragon Stone' is called 'Door of the Next World'.
I couldn't help but sigh that seeing tomb robbing is really a very profound science. I still have to learn a lot.
But I'm curious, how can it be said that the 'sealing stones' are all the same, even if there are differences, they are all made of dragon shapes. But the stone lump in front of him was too ugly, it didn't look like a dragon at all, and it didn't even have a demeanor.
"Why doesn't it look like a 'Broken Dragon Stone'?" I looked at the little white face and couldn't help but ask.
He looked at me and said lightly: "There are many kinds of dragons in ancient times, the most used is the dragon, and some small border countries use some ancient 'hundred-legged dragons' and 'thousand-legged dragons' as sealing stones. But this is the Western Regions, the Yellow Springs Country, and it is normal for this kind of country related to shamanism to use some strange things. ”
I still don't think something is right: "How do you look like a dragon?" ”
The little white face knocked on the sealing stone, and continued to say to me patiently: "How do you know that our traditional five-clawed golden dragon is the correct form of a dragon? Maybe in the eyes of the people of Huangquan Kingdom, this is the most orthodox dragon. And they love to alienate strange things as gods. ”
In this way, it is really not surprising that those alienated gods, called 'Immortal Heaven', are recognized gods in their Western Regions, and everyone must respect and worship.
I took a closer look at the sealing stone, but when I thought about it, my whole body chuckled, and my face instantly changed in shock.
I turned my head and looked around, and finally exclaimed, "God, if the pair of stone lumps in front of us are sealed stones, then we haven't entered the tomb palace of Huangquan Kingdom yet?" ”
You must know that the sealing stone is outside the tomb palace, and as long as the sealing stone is broken, it can be regarded as truly entering the tomb palace.
So what are the dangers that have happened all the way here? If it's not in the tomb palace, then how do we explain the burial chambers and whatever?
And if the one we had before was really a tomb palace, how could we explain the sealing stone in front of us?
