Chapter 52 Stone Bridge Yongdao

——————————————————————————————————

The leader of the bronze sword in his hand rushed at me with such speed that before I could react, he had already rushed in front of me.

Originally, I thought that I would not be attacked, but the fact is that the leader's bronze ancient sword plunged into my abdomen at once, and my eyes turned black, and I fell to my knees.

When I stood up again, I found myself standing on the huge square just now, and for a moment, I thought I was back in the reality of Shekou Cave, but the sight before me told me that it was still just an illusion.

Because, at this time, on the square, the soldiers standing were all living people, and these soldiers seemed to have just fought a war and were in the process of rectification.

At the same time, I saw that at the front of the square, the man in the dark clothes was standing there expressionlessly, and in front of him was another man who looked like a general. The man had sword eyebrows and starry eyes, a burly figure, and his eyebrows always showed his domineering spirit, but he was such a person, he knelt down in front of the man in Xuanyi at this moment, and kept kowtowing, as if he was begging for forgiveness or other things.

However, the Xuanyi people seemed to treat him as air, and when he gave an order, all the soldiers in the square stood in a uniform position. Immediately after, the Xuanyi man raised his arms high, and a buzzing chanting sound sounded all around, and in a few moments, the bodies of all the soldiers spontaneously combusted without fire, and a large army was reduced to ashes in an instant.

And the face of the man kneeling in front of him showed a look of despair, kneeling there, bowing his head, motionless, as if time had stood still.

Then, again, the man in the dark clothes walked up to me......

……

I slowly opened my eyes, the mountain breeze was blowing, and the sensations in my body were recovering little by little.

I slowly stood up and found that Bu Jin was standing on the platform just now, staring intently at the cliff in front of her.

I walked up to Ryazan and Gao Peng and called them twice, but I didn't get any answer, but seeing that they were breathing steadily, my heart was a lot calmer, probably they were only in a deep coma.

As for Chen Bing, Old Man Yuan and Shu Jingcheng, they were all leaning on their sides at the moment, motionless.

My mouth was dry, and although I knew it was all just illusions, I felt very tired for some reason.

I walked behind Bu Jin with difficulty and said, "Bu Jin? ”

Bu Jin's body was stunned, and after a while, she slowly turned her head, the blood on her eyes was no longer flowing, but the whole person still looked very weak, and her face was extremely pale.

"Bu Jin?" I looked at Bu Jin's eyes once again showing helplessness, and my heart suddenly softened again, and I couldn't help asking, "What's wrong with you?" ”

Bu Jin didn't speak, just turned his head lightly. I followed her to her side, and a familiar fragrance wafted in, which made me a little intoxicated, but when I followed Bu Jin's eyes and looked at the other side, this feeling of intoxication was immediately overwhelmed by the impact of reality.

I saw that the translucent human snakes that were summoned by Bu Jin just now came out of the dense cliff caves on the opposite cliff at this moment, but this time, those human snakes were biting a big iron chain in their mouths, and then, these human snakes bit these iron chains and began to climb down the cliff again.

They weren't fast, but the chains seemed to be very strong, and there was a loud "cluck" sound throughout the cave when the chains were pulled, and my intuition told me that it was a mechanism, and that these snakes were probably there to activate it.

"What are they doing?" I asked Bu Jindao.

"Bridging." Bu Jin replied lightly.

Bypass? Because I didn't understand the meaning of this sentence, I just frowned, and suddenly, I heard a huge "boom" sound from the entire opposite cliff, and in an instant, countless small stones slipped down from the opposite cliff, and I subconsciously thought that this place was about to collapse, and later I found out that this was not the case.

Suddenly, four cracks appeared in the middle of the originally smooth stone wall of the cliff in front of me, revealing the shape of a stone door.

I was dumbfounded by the situation in front of me, although I had expected that it would be a mechanism, but I did not expect that this mechanism would be so huge.

Gradually, a gap opened in the opposite cliff like the gate of the ancient moat wall, and then the huge stone door panel hung down slowly, impartially, just on the platform on which Bu Jin and I were standing.

There was a "boom", and everything was quiet again.

It turns out that this is the so-called bridge, and this mechanism is to connect the two cliffs. On the opposite side of this stone bridge made of stone walls, there is a black road.

Bu Jin glanced back at me lightly, and said softly, "Peixi, follow me." ”

Peixi, follow me? It was the first time I had heard Bu Jin call my name so affectionately, and although I knew it didn't mean anything, I still unconsciously followed her.

"And what about them?" I pointed to Ryazan and Gao Peng as I walked behind Bu Jin and said.

"We'll go back as soon as we go." Bu Jin said.

"That ......" I took advantage of Bu Jin's conversation and asked, "They, ah no, what we just ...... Status, uh...... Did you do it? ”

This time, Bu Jin ignored me, she just continued to walk forward, and when we reached the center of the stone bridge, I was a little scared, after all, this mechanism has existed for at least thousands of years, and God knows if it will fall into disrepair and collapse suddenly?

However, Bu Jin did not immediately walk into the entrance of the corridor, but stood in the middle of the stone bridge and stopped for a while.

At this time, I heard a few hissing noises under the bridge, and when I looked down, I couldn't help but feel numb in my scalp, only to see that the translucent human snakes that had activated the mechanism just now were all entrenched at the bottom of the valley at this moment, looking up at me and Bu Jin, and making a low chirping, which felt like a pet was asking for a reward from its owner after doing something.

I turned my head to look at Bu Jin, only to see that she had raised her arms and chanted a mantra in her mouth, I could almost guess what was going to happen next, and as I expected, after a while, all the translucent human snakes at the bottom of the valley seemed to have been drained of blood, and they became extremely shriveled, and in an instant, all of them lost their vitality.

It was at that moment that a cold wind swayed up from the bottom of the valley, and after two rotations around Bu Jin's side, it slowly disappeared - once again absorbing the soul?

I followed Bu Jin's footsteps and continued to walk, and soon came to the entrance of Yongdao.

When I walked to the entrance of the cave, I was surprised to find that the interior of this corridor was faintly emitting a faint light, although the light was not large, but it was very eye-catching in the dark corridor, and what made people a little creepy was that the light was not the usual yellow fire, but emitted a faint green light.

I once saw in a book about ancient legends that many tomb owners hoped that their tombs would last for 10,000 years, so they placed a lot of lanterns in the tombs. The main reason why the ever-bright lamp can burn for a hundred years, or even thousands of years, lies in the lamp oil.

According to legend, the oil of the lanterns in the emperor's tomb is extracted from the body of the black-scaled shark people from the East China Sea. These oils not only have a low ignition point, but are also extremely flame resistant, and can burn for thousands of years without extinguishing.

However, it is not known whether there are such creatures as black-scaled sharks in this world.

It is true that no one in the world has been able to see the real black scale shark man now, and scientific theories do not seem to be able to prove the existence of such a creature in this world, but, in the same way, we cannot assume that there is no such creature in this world just because no one in this world has ever seen a creature.

Sometimes, I do have doubts about the existing worldview, and it is strange to say that thousands of years ago, there was almost no communication between the East and the West, but there were records of half-man, half-fish creatures in both the East and the West, can it be said that it is just a coincidence?

When I thought of this, I couldn't help but feel nervous, and I thought, what could be inside this corridor? Could it be that there is a corpse of a black-scaled merman inside? This idea is a bit ridiculous, but if it is not, then what secrets are hidden in this hidden corridor?

I walked inside with Bu Jin, and the more I walked, the more I found that the light in the corridor was getting more and more abundant, it was indeed an ever-bright lamp hanging on the wall, the light was yellow mixed with green turquoise, which made people feel a little crazy to look at.

However, there is nothing surprising about this road itself, the road is very neat, there is no peculiar smell, and the road is very smooth, without encountering any strange dangers.

After walking two cigarettes, the light in front of him suddenly brightened, and a vague huge black shadow was projected from the depths of the corridor, covering the ground of the corridor on the bluestone slab, looking at the shape of the shadow, it seemed to be a person.
