Chapter 183: Gu Tongxuan's Tomb
In the light of the light, they saw two closed stone doors at the end. The stone door was heavy, and Tsubaki tried to push it twice, but he didn't see any movement, but instead shook the white ash off the ceiling.
"Let's push and see together?" Chun Chunkang said to Chen Fenghua.
Chen Fenghua nodded, stepped forward and lunged, and used his biceps to resist the stone door, and said at the same time: "I'll count to three, and work hard together." ”
"One...... Two...... Three! ”
"Ah......" The green tendons on the foreheads of the two people were beating, and they all used their strength to push up the stone door, and the white ash on their heads also fell down. But the hard work paid off, and this stone gate actually moved a few millimeters outward under the combined efforts of the two. Seeing this, the two of them stretched their brows at the same time, as long as it wasn't fixed! These few millimeters of movement made them see the dawn, and they moved in unison at the moment.
"One-two...... Three! ”
"One-two...... Three!
……
After several efforts, the thick stone door was finally opened, and Tsubaki looked into the gap against the door, but he didn't see anything because it was too dark. So, with some effort, they opened one of the doors halfway, so that the gap between the two doors was large enough for one person to enter.
Chen Fenghua took the lead in entering the crack in the door with the light technique, and Chun Chunkang followed closely behind. However, as soon as they entered, their faces became very ugly again, and the corners of their mouths twitched twice, and they really felt the urge to spit dirty. They saw nothing else, but - two other stone doors!
"Why do I have a sense of foreboding?" Tsubaki Chunkang didn't move for a long time when he looked ten meters in front of him, and then he popped out these words.
"I also have ......" Chen Fenghua's right eyelid jumped twice, "This time, it won't be Shimenguan......"
That being said, no matter what is in front of them, they can only break through, and the way back is no longer possible, they can only move forward, whether it is the stone gate or the stone wall, since they have walked so many roads, it is cowardice to retreat, and there is hope to move forward.
Coincidentally, they walked to the stone gate, the two looked at each other to give encouragement, and shouted like an old man pushing a cart: "One, two...... Three! One or two...... Three ......"
The stone gate gradually opened the gap, the top of the two people's arms hurt, and the soles of their feet were almost peeled, until the stone gate could pass one person, they stopped. Walking through the second stone gate, they looked ahead, and their hearts chuckled, and sure enough, it was exactly what they had guessed, and the last thing they wanted to see had happened - there was still a stone gate behind the second stone gate, and they had indeed entered the stone gate!
After a short rest, they began to challenge the third stone gate, perhaps they had used up their strength to feed, and it took twice as long to open the third stone gate as the second one! After that, they ushered in a fourth stone gate.
Five...... Six...... Seven...... Eight...... Nine...... Ten.
"Whew!" Chen Fenghua exhaled heavily, and after more than an hour, they came to the front of the tenth stone gate, "The tenth, theoretically speaking, it shouldn't embarrass us anymore, but if there is anything behind, I can only say %*@%...... ¥”
Chun Chun Kang held the stone door with his hand, and should be with Chen Fenghua: "I can also say %*@%...... ¥? ”
"Yes!" Chen Fenghua wiped the sweat left on his forehead due to excessive exertion, and replied sternly, "Come on!" I shout one, two, three! ”
When the tenth stone gate was opened, it was still dim in front of it, and it was faintly visible that there was a door ten meters away. Tsubaki Chunkang stumbled, and felt that his legs were a little weak, and it was very good that the weak mage could hold on until now, and the number of the blame system was too tricky, simulating such a stumbling environment, if he came down alone, he might really be trapped to death.
Chen Fenghua stared at the door in front of him, he thought it would be the eleventh stone door at first, but when he took a few steps closer, he realized that it was different from the previous stone doors, to be precise, it was not made of stone, but a brown and yellow door made of wood, and there were two copper rings with a diameter of ten centimeters on the edge of the gap in the middle, from the perspective of time, this door seemed to have not been opened for a long time.
"Chun Chunkang, the front is a wooden door, let's go and have a look."
"Yes!" After listening, Tsubaki stood up suddenly, followed to the wooden door, he touched the dusty door, and laughed, "Haha! Finally no longer a stone gate! Check it out! ”
This is undoubtedly good news for the two. At that moment, they did not hesitate to open the wooden door. The moment the door opened, a stream of air leaked out from the inside, and the smell of rot came to the nostrils, making people feel like the stomach was turning over even a little sniffing. The two immediately pinched their noses, but they didn't dare to open their mouths to breathe, as if they felt that it was a very disgusting thing for these gases to run into their mouths.
"Drop! You've come to the tomb of Gu Tongxuan! ”
"Ding! You've come to the tomb of Gu Tongxuan! ”
But the curiosity caused the two to unconsciously enter the door, and as soon as they entered, their ears sounded the sound of the system, and at the same time, their eyes were attracted by a corpse wearing a corroded robe and emitting a golden glow. The skeleton sat cross-legged with his left hand on his knees and a staff in his right hand, like a seated immortal. But it wasn't so much the bones that glowed, but the staff it held in its hand glowing. The golden light was so dazzling that even without the light technique, the entire five-meter-square hut was illuminated.
Chen Fenghua cut off the light technique and stood in the doorway, while Tsubaki Chunkang walked towards the location of the corpse. Both of them had guessed that if nothing else, this was where Tsubaki Chunkang should come, and the so-called Gu Tongxuan should be the NPC he was looking for, as for who this corpse was, both of them were puzzled.
Soon, Chun Chunkang settled in front of the corpse, and at this moment, a system prompt sound came to his ears: "Ding!" You have completed the quest [Lost City] and the rewards: Experience: 40000, Gold*10, Medium Mana Elixir*5, Intermediate Life Elixir*5, Pure Yellow Az*1. ”
"Ding! Class quest [Earth Mage] opens! ”
Tsubaki Chun Kang's face suddenly turned happy, and the career task was automatically opened! While checking the task, he hurriedly told Chen Fenghua the good news one after another. And Chen Fenghua had already read what was happening from the other party's face, and his spirit was relieved, now it was finally good, and Chun Chunkang's career finally came.
"Career Quest [Earth Mage]: Three hundred years ago, this was the location of Tongxuan City, Tongxuan City was prosperous, and the people in the city lived and worked in peace and contentment. Until one day, a mage from the West came to Tongxuan City, he claimed that the black-eyed and black-haired Orientals had mispracticed the elemental spells, because the spell element theory came from the West, and the orthodoxy should also be held by the West, so he vowed to correct the name of the earth-based spells, and he was determined to challenge the city lord of Tongxuan City at that time, who was also an earth-elemental manipulator - Gu Tongxuan......"
Tsubaki Chunkang listened to the introduction of the career mission, and a picture seemed to appear in front of him, accompanied by the voice of the system, he felt that he was in Tongxuan City 300 years ago.
"At that time, Gu Tongxuan believed that the spells of the East and the West were originally one, and there was no so-called orthodox impostor, and only the mage who controlled the essence of the earth element was the real earth mage. He thought that the behavior of the Western mage was absurd and unreasonable, so he did not accept the battle. Gu Tongxuan's approach made the mages from the West feel angry, and in order to prove that he had mastered the essence of the earth law, he spent a month creating tens of thousands of earth puppets. These puppets are all made of earth, and there is no shortage of earth giants, earth lions and a series of earth-made beasts. ”
"Under the control of the Western mage, he used the earth puppets summoned by these earth methods to form a siege army and attacked Tongxuan City in the silent night! And Gu Tongxuan, who was the city lord at that time, realized that it was too late, and the main city was captured in a short time, and he realized the strength of this Western mage, these earth puppets did not attack the city from the outside, but directly entered the main city from the underground of Tongxuan City. Gu Tongxuan was forced to fight! ”
"Two earth mages of different factions fought against each other for several days, and in the end, the Western mage was successfully wounded and fled, and Gu Tongxuan was also seriously injured. But this is not the end, because he has to fight with the Western mage, Gu Tongxuan did not take into account the other party's puppet army, he thought that as long as the Western mage master was defeated, these armies would collapse and die, but unfortunately he miscalculated. Seeing that the people in the city were completely destroyed by the earth puppets, he could only use the earth forbidden spell at his own expense, so that the entire Tongxuan City disappeared along with these puppets, thus saving the lives of the surviving people. Gu Tongxuan died, and the surviving people built a cemetery for him, depicting his life and the disasters of Tongxuan City in order to commemorate this great city lord. ”
"Ding! Please hand over your [Earth Staff] to Gu Tongxuan's left hand, and take the [Earth Staff] in his right hand to begin to accept the test of Gu Tongxuan's soul! ”
