Chapter 56: Pangu stands on the Spirit Mountain
Xiao Lianshan ignited the liquid in the groove, and the fire spread rapidly, like a fire dragon illuminating the whole mountain, and we saw clearly that these grooves were built around the mountain, not only the one in front of us, these grooves were like beacon towers, which were constantly spreading, and such grooves were built in all the mountains of the entire island.
We walked up the hill along the royal road illuminated by the firelight, Wen Zhuo smelled the smell of white oil burning in the groove, and reacted a little strangely, I asked him what was going on, Wen Zhuo smiled faintly, and said that maybe he was thinking too much.
Here we are almost forgetting the day and night, counting the days, we should have been several days from entering the old dragon ditch to here, the more I go forward, the more bottomless my heart is, I have been holding Yue Qianling's hand, maybe only this aimless progress can make us realize that all this is real, in fact, it is estimated that no one has thought about how to go back, after all, we don't know where we are.
When we got to the top of the hill we finally got a good look at the topography of the place, and no one spoke, we really didn't know how to describe everything here, the island we were on was surrounded by rock walls on all sides, and in the middle was a wide sea of sea, which was pumped in from the icebergs of the sea of fire, but we didn't know where the water flowed.
The island is surrounded by a thick mist, reminding me of the legendary floating fairy mountain, the grooves we ignited continue to burn forward, one mountain after another slowly lit up, we can clearly see the fire spreading and burning between the mountains, the whole island is like day under the light of these fires.
The mountain is not high, there are immortals, although it looks like a fairy island, but I don't feel the slightest aura, even Wen Zhuo said to me strangely, there is a smell of blood here, I also perceive that there is always an indescribable evil spirit in the breath flowing around this island.
The mountains here are all connected, but the summits are open and flat, and when the firelight outlines all the mountains on the island, I find that the mountains here are arranged in a crescent shape, like horseshoe set on the island.
A few steps further, I suddenly heard a weak resonance in my ears, and suddenly raised my head, this is the resonance that can only be produced by the Nine Heavens Hidden Dragon, and a large part of the reason why I asked Xiao Lianshan to smash the altar in the Ming Fourteenth Mausoleum was that I didn't hear this resonance.
So at that time, I realized that the altar might be an illusion to hide people's ears and eyes, and this is the place where the mana of the Nine Heavens Hidden Dragon Decisive is truly sealed, needless to say that Qin Yishou must have been here, but even if this ordinary seabed is mysterious, it is nothing special in my opinion, and I can't understand why Qin Yishou chose to seal the Nine Heavens Hidden Dragon Decisive here.
When everyone else saw me stop, they all looked back at me, and Yue Qianling saw that I looked nervous.
"What's wrong? What's wrong? ”
"We're not in the wrong place, I heard the resonance of the Nine Heavens Hidden Dragon Duel." I looked serious, took a few steps forward, and said with certainty. "Just follow this royal road, and the further I go, the clearer the resonance I hear."
The trees on the top of the mountain are lush and green, and the royal road passes through the forest, Xiao Lianshan didn't take a few steps and suddenly stopped, frowned and said.
"Brother, how long did you say these roads have been built?"
"These things are bricks, at least for more than a thousand years." I replied.
"Millennium......" Xiao Lianshan frowned even tighter, shaking his head and said. That's not right, look at the trees on this mountain are growing, if they were built thousands of years ago, these roads should have been blocked by overgrown weeds, but why are these roads so clear? ”
Xiao Lianshan's words reminded me that the Qin Brick Imperial Road thousands of years ago would definitely not be as clean as what we see now, but after thinking about it, this island was originally bizarre and mysterious, and perhaps no one would have thought that there was such a place before, and it was not surprising that there was a clean imperial road, and the most important thing now was to find the seal of the Nine Heavens Hidden Dragon Decisive first.
Pushing aside a dense bush, there was a wide flat land in front of us, when we walked out, I looked up at the towering behemoth in front of me in shock, and Yue Qianling, Gu Anqi and Xiao Lianshan behind me all walked over silently, everyone was as dumbfounded as I was.
Wen Zhuo was the last to come out, and I heard the sound of his Adam's apple squirming, and I could guess his expression without looking back.
The two bronze kneeling lantern armors had shocked us, but they were too small to be worth mentioning compared to the statue in front of us now.
I saw me, at least I had seen this face in the mirror, on the first face Mu Xixue gave me, the face of the high king I still remember vividly, he was standing in front of me at this moment, but I had to look up to see it.
On the top of the mountain, there is a huge statue towering into the clouds, the man wears a black crown, there are beaded curtains in front and back, because of the vertical, the black on the top of the black clothes and the red on the bottom, the yellow and red big pendant, the waist wears the Tai'a sword, one hand is behind the back, the right hand is slightly raised, the face is majestic and cold, the eyes are wise and arrogant.
The mountain is high and the man is the peak, and this statue is completely a mountain, above the top of the mountains, with the majesty of the heavens and the earth, like an invincible giant arrogantly looking down on the world, we stand below and are completely shocked by this huge statue, even if it is just a statue, but the momentum is surging I can still feel the grandeur of the king in the past, at that moment it seems that the heaven and the earth have become small in front of him, and the four words of heaven and earth are interpreted vividly by this statue.
As we walked over, I thought it was a bronze statue, but when my hand touched the statue, I realized that it wasn't, it was a stone sculpture, and I was amazed at how many people it would take to complete such a huge stone sculpture, and how it was necessary to carry it to the mountain, and where to find such a large stone.
Yue Qianling squatted under the stone statue out of archaeological instinct and studied it for a long time, then turned her head to us and said.
"This ...... This was not carried up, it was carved out of the original mountain, which was supposed to be the highest main peak here, and was carved into the current stone statue. ”
"There's a stone monument here, come and see." Gu Anqi shouted loudly on the side.
We walked over, and on the side of the mountain wall of the megalithic statue we saw the big characters of the Qin seal.
Broken Penglai, lock ...... Yin at the bottom, digging mountains and towns ......, sinking the East China Sea for eternity......
The words on the stone wall may be because of the end of the year, many of them have been broken and difficult to distinguish, the specific meaning is not too clear, but I was surprised to see the first three words.
"Penglai?! Could it be that this is the legendary Penglai Island? ”
"In the historical records, the King of Qin once ordered people to go out to the East China Sea to visit Penglai, and it is rumored that Penglai is a fairy island, is this the place?" Gu Anqi also said with some surprise.
"Emperor, look at this situation, you have been here before, Shen Donghai...... You actually sank Penglai Island, hehe. Wen Zhuo smiled disapprerovingly and said to me. But it doesn't matter if it's Penglai or not, but I don't feel any fairy energy, this place is very evil, if it's really a fairy mountain treasure, presumably you won't sink this place, there must be some reason to do this. ”
"Lock...... Yin at the bottom, chiseling the mountain town ......, the words in the middle of these two sentences are not clear, but the meaning should be to lock something underneath, chisel the mountain town ....... I said as I looked back at the megalithic statue and said meaningfully. Could it be that the statue was built for what purpose? ”
"There must be a reason why Uncle Qin used here to seal the Nine Heavens Hidden Dragon, which is why even Wei Yong, who is so profound, didn't dare to come, what could make Wei Yong jealous?" Yue Qianling pondered for a long time and hesitated to talk to herself.
Pangu stands on the Ling Mountain.
I suddenly thought of the third sentence of the four sentences that Zhang Siye told us, it should be here, someone has really been to this place, this statue is too huge, like Pangu that opened the world, and Lingshan should refer to Penglai Island, it seems that the rumors are not apocryphal, but now I am secretly worried in my heart.
Zhang Siye told us that although some people who have been here have gone back, they all seem to have lost their souls, all of them are delirious, and they seem to have seen extremely terrible things here, so far this place is quite quiet, but I vaguely feel unsteady in my heart, and I plan to leave as soon as possible after finding the Nine Heavens Hidden Dragon Mana Seal, this place always has a yin evil that I can't say.
The resonance in my ears became clearer and clearer next to the statue, but the statue was carved out of a mountain, and we looked around the statue but found no passage to get inside, and the royal road extended into the statue, but turned down the mountain.
Xiao Lianshan walked in front to explore the road, fortunately, the fire light in the groove illuminated the road very clearly, we went down the mountain along the royal road, the mountain here is distributed by a horseshoe crescent, and the flat and empty place below the mountain is a beach surrounded by mountains, the more I go down, the stronger the resonance in my ears, I can vaguely feel that I am getting closer and closer to the seal.
When we were about to get to the bottom of the mountain, Xiao Lianshan found a bright light different from the fire in front, and we all vaguely saw a little golden light refracted from the bottom of the mountain, getting brighter and brighter, and when we walked to the bottom of the mountain, we looked at the mountain behind us on the empty beach, and were stunned again in place.
Above is the towering boulder statue, high above the Penglai Immortal Island under the feet, the raised right hand pointed straight to the sky, and below the statue is a palace, a palace shining with golden light.
Like the palace on the coast of the East China Sea in the legend, the pavilion is high, and the windows are hidden, but this palace is not built on the reef, but is built on the mountain, and the mountain is hollowed out from the inside to the outside, and the whole palace is built with gold and silver, which shines brightly and shines on people's ears and eyes.
Jieshi Golden Palace!
