Winding up the path full of fallen flowers, Qin Zhen and the others finally saw a unique building. Presumably, this is where the Demon Lord lives.

The area of this building is not small, and it seems that each should have its own function. At this moment, they followed the Demon Lord into a living-style residential courtyard, and the style was roughly a typical Dali architectural style.

The tall gatehouse is Xiamen Building, which has a mature and long history of construction. It is made up of three archways, and the top of the gatehouse has a flying angle, and the wings and corners of the two floors are very flexible. There is a bucket arch decoration under the eaves, which is extremely gorgeous and colorful.

The main gate seat is made of Haidong blue amphibole stone finely hewn into delicate flower points, and the angular base is built. The structure of the upper shelf is rigorous, the bucket arch is overhanging, and the eaves are warped.

The dougong on this gatehouse is majestic and magnificent. Even if this building is really located in Dali, people must be able to see at a glance that it is by no means an ordinary family.

The end of the wooden bucket arch is carved out of auspicious patterns such as dragons, phoenixes, rabbits, elephants, unicorns, and flowers. The bucket bowl is carved into the shape of eight treasure lotus, and the exterior is not decorated with colored lacquer, and the true color of wood is used to highlight the subtlety of the carving art. In the midst of simplicity and elegance, but without losing the magnificence.

Look at the bucket arch under the wing angle of the lower layer, it is smaller than the bucket arch of the top layer, and the carving is similar to the upper layer. Below the dougong, there are many hollow flowers, and the marble exterior wall is painted with ink and moire, ruyi and other exquisite patterns.

In Dali, there are Xiamen buildings that are mostly the residences of wealthy eunuchs. And such a gorgeous and complicated gatehouse shows the identity and status of the owner. This is somewhat incommensurate with the environment of the deep mountains of Lethe River.

Qin Zhen originally thought that the Demon Lord lived in such an isolated place, and the living environment should be "between the mountains and rivers, the house and the trees, and the walking and living are safe; A ploughing ox is half a hectare of land, and the harvest is also increased, and the barren is also added" But I didn't expect that the residence of the Demon Lord would be so gorgeous and exquisite, and the nobility of the identity was obvious everywhere.

After passing through the gatehouse, you will arrive at the place where the wall shines. Zhaobi, in fact, is also the Xiao wall of the ancients facing the gate of the king's palace. The saying that the wall is caused by the woe comes from this.

It is precisely because of this unique photo wall that it is said that this building "roughly" belongs to the typical Dali architectural style. Because whether it is Dali or Beijing, the shadow wall in the courtyard must be a wall with one high and two low eaves and a flying corner green roof facing the gate.

But not here. As soon as he entered the gate, there were two walls, standing opposite each other in a figure-eight shape. It's a weird form that's really confusing.

The shadow wall of the shadow wall is taken as a "avoidance". According to folk legends, ghosts can only walk in a straight line, so after erecting the shadow wall, the ghost will bump into the shadow wall as soon as he enters the gate and can't walk, so that the wild ghost will not be able to enter the house. In addition, from the perspective of feng shui, the qi of the gate cannot directly rush to the main hall, so erecting a shadow wall also has the effect of blocking evil. All in all, the shadow wall is the function of driving away evil spirits.

But this shadow wall of the demon lord seems to be afraid that the ghost will not be able to enter, and specially for the ghost to "open the door of my house often, open my arms and wait for you".

These two walls are painted in ink at the cornice wall, and four big characters are inscribed in the middle with vigorous and powerful ancient calligraphy.

On the left is "Nanzhao Zaifu", and on the right is "Three Strategies Shine".

The average person may not understand the meaning of these eight words. But seeing this, Yu Dong was more sure of the identity of the Demon Lord in his heart. That's right, he is really the descendant of Nanzhao Guoshi.

In Dali, the inscription on the wall is very particular. All are related to family name and family history.

For example, the surname Yang, the inscription on the wall is 'Qinglian heirloom', the surname Li is 'Qinglian Legacy Style', the surname Wang is 'Ruixue Sanhuai', the surname He is 'Shuibu Family Voice' or 'Mountain High Pavilion', the surname Du is 'Gongbu Family Voice', the Yin surname is 'Xinye Legacy Style', the Jiang surname is 'Fishing Wei Family Style', and the famous Duan family of Dali is 'Jingzhao Shidi' and so on......

Different surnames have different historical allusions. Among them, the family surnamed Dong in Dali, the one written in front of the door is 'Nanzhao Zaifu' or 'Jiulong descendants', and their meaning comes from a famous Dong Guoshi in Nanzhao Kingdom.

In that case, will the Demon Lord be surnamed Dong? Not necessarily. Because among the ethnic minorities in the southwest, there is a custom of father and son joining their names.

For example, the thirteen kings of the lineage of the Nanzhao royal family, starting from Xinuluo, are in order of Xinuluo, Luosheng, Shengluopi, Piluoge, Geluofeng, Fengjiayi, Yimuxun, Xungequan, Quanlongsheng, Shengfengyou, Youshilong, Longshun, and Shunhuazhen. All of them are conjoined.

The reason why Nanzhao has a surname is the result of learning from the Han people. If it is according to the original custom of Nanzhao, it should be passed on from father to son, with a joint name system. Therefore, although the demon lord used the inscription on the wall that revered Dong Guoshi, it did not mean that his surname was Dong.

Passing through the Zhaobi, you can see a classical courtyard surrounded by houses and Zhaobi with three sides. A variety of exotic flowers and plants are planted in the courtyard, and the aroma of plants and trees fills the whole courtyard, and the fragrance is overflowing.

The middle one is the main room, which is slightly higher than the houses on either side. There is also a slatted patio at the intersection of the main house and the houses on both sides. The whole courtyard gives the impression of being comfortable and gorgeous.

The main room has six carved lattice doors. The window is carved with a breathable lattice, and the lower sill wall is made into a wooden skirt board, and there is a relief carving, the form is exquisite, the carving technique is changeable, and the pattern is ancient and mysterious.

The beams and pillars with the ancient atmosphere, the beam head are carved out of the back pattern, cloud pattern, fish, dragon, color phoenix and other patterns, the pillar is more vivid dragon, phoenix, elephant, lin and other shapes, the lines are smooth, simple but realistic.

All the materials used in the precincts are made of noble wood. The carving skills are rich and gorgeous, and there are thousands of postures.

Qin Zhen and the others were all sighing for the exquisite courtyard of the Demon Lord. It makes people feel like they have entered the Nanzhao Palace.

After they entered the main room and sat down, the Demon Lord looked at Yu Dong and said, "It seems that Gu Niang's relationship with you is not ordinary, and she specially sent Gu worms to open the way for you." ”

As soon as Qin Zhen heard the Demon Lord's words, he thought that he would blame Jiuyou for this, so he immediately prepared to open his mouth to clear up the relationship with Jiuyou. At least you can't let Jiuyou be implicated by a few of them.

Unexpectedly, without waiting for Qin Zhen to speak, the Demon Lord said again: "Since the relationship is not ordinary, then call Gu Niang." In this way, she can also help me prepare some things to be used, and wait until three days later, and wish the Dharma mantra. ”

When Qin Zhen and Lao Gu heard this, they couldn't help but be overjoyed! Qin Zhen was even more excited and hurriedly asked, "That...... Devil, do you have to heal us one by one? But what about our distant friends? ”

The Demon Lord didn't even raise his eyes, and replied to Qin Zhen's question lightly: "The curses on your bodies are originally in the same vein, as long as one person dissolves them, the others will be fine." But you should be well aware that the fundamental solution to the curse of the Nine Dragons is not with me. All I can do is save your lives for the time being, so that you have time to find the root cause. Ninety-nine eighty-one days, if the curse has not been broken, then you will die a more miserable and painful death. Do you understand? ”

Qin Zhen swallowed his saliva, and a chill couldn't help but run on his back. In fact, nearly three months is not a short time, but after hearing the consequences that the Demon Lord said, it still makes people feel very uncomfortable. But fortunately, at least everyone can save their lives for the time being, which is already good!

Seeing that they all nodded, the Demon Lord said, "As long as one of you asks me to cast a spell, it will be fine." But you know the power of the Nine Dragons Curse, and it can only be suppressed with more domineering spells. I will not be like the man with the power of Cangjie, who will risk self-harm and self-harm to forcibly cast a spell on you. Two powerful forces collided with each other on the cursed person, and it was naturally painful. There may be a danger of death. So you'd better discuss in advance who will cast the spell on me and be mentally prepared for it. ”

Speaking of this, the Demon Lord suddenly raised his eyes and glanced at Yu Dong, and then smiled meaningfully and said, "Perhaps, you don't have to discuss it at all......

The meaning of the Demon Lord's words is obviously that this role must be played by Yudong! So Qin Zhen stood up excitedly at this time, and said righteously: "Demon Lord! We don't need to discuss, I'll be the one who is cursed! Yudong, he has been injured too much in order to live your Nine Heavens and protect us all. There's no way he'll be on that task anymore! I'm not going to let him do that! ”

Yu Dong didn't speak, but the Demon Lord smiled wickedly and said, "Hou Sheng, it is indeed commendable that you have the courage to stand up for him. But I am afraid that you will be ordered to go up to the altar, but you will not be ordered to go down to the altar. The weak Cangjie power in your body doesn't belong to you in the first place, so you can't exert your strength at all. It's okay for you to hide from an evil ghost with that little bit of borrowed power, but if you want to resist my Zhu Yuju, I'm afraid it's very difficult. ”

Qin Zhen was stunned for a moment! Let's not talk about how the Demon Lord knew that the power on Qin Zhen's body came from Juntian, just saying that he had just called Qin Zhen made Qin Zhen very surprised!

"Afterlife"?? The Demon Lord looked to be about their age, and he stood around. How can he say this to refer to the juniors?!

Looking at Qin Zhen's surprised look, the Demon Lord smiled, and said sharply: "I don't cast witches without causes, I don't cast Gu without causes, and I don't cast nameless curses. Before suppressing the curse of the Nine Dragons for you, you must first know the origin of this curse. ”

Lao Gu and they were in good spirits when they heard this. A catastrophe that has plagued so many people, and they have reason to figure out what the root cause is! Could it be that it is really the problem of the Queen Mother of the West?

As if reminiscing about his previous life, the Demon Lord slowly closed his eyes, and then said leisurely: "More than three thousand years ago, Zhou Mu Wang Jiman did get a piece of the Jiulong Town National Treasure. That's what you saw later.

In fact, the jade bi itself is not evil, but just like the jade seal of the country, it has been contaminated with monstrous evil and anger from generation to generation.

The way of heaven often mutates, and the number of fortunes is hard to find. In the later period, all the countries that had obtained the national bib of Kowloon Town all died out mysteriously.

During the Han Dynasty, Zhen Guobi changed hands several times. These include Wusun, Yelang, Jingjue, Loulan, Ailao, etc., you must all know very well that these countries once upon a time prospered, and then disappeared inexplicably. ”
