I was stunned and withdrew my hand from the drum.

I rubbed my eyes and looked around, trying to find Chen Shengzhi's figure. To my right, the castle stands majestically and quaintly, and to my left, a stone staircase stretches downward, obscured by mist in the middle, and looks eerie and lonely.

What's going on?

Didn't I come out after Chen Sheng? How could I stand in front of the drum in the blink of an eye, and my hand was even on it, as if I had never moved.

If what I saw just now was really happening, then where did Chen Shengzhi go? If it's just an illusion, then why do I see it so real, what Chen Shengzhi and the White Snake said, I still remember it so clearly, what dragon veins, Tsing Yi Qiang Kingdom, naked women......

Is that true or false?

I felt like I had been poured a basin of cold water at this moment, my body was cold and piercing, my hairs stood on end, the pores of my whole body suddenly contracted together, and a fear from the depths of my soul spread throughout my body.

I cried out with a "wow", after all, I was only a ten-year-old child, and I had experienced so many unbelievable and even weird things in one day, and that fear completely shattered my inner defense.

I don't know how long it took, until my tears dried up and my throat became hoarse, I got up from the ground, calmed my fears, and walked slowly towards the gate of the castle.

When I entered the gate of the castle, a puff of dust came to my face, and I coughed and hurriedly covered my mouth and nose.

Wrong! It seems that no one has been in this castle for a long time, and there is a thick layer of dust everywhere, and I don't know how many years of inventory it has been accumulating.

I looked up at the middle of the castle, where an altar more than two meters high stood quietly, and looking down the stone steps, there was a coffin, a white coffin, lying in the middle of the altar.

Although I had been prepared, I was still taken aback, was what had just happened really real? The castle, the altar, the white coffin, and perhaps the naked woman in the coffin.

A longing arose in my heart at this moment, to open the white coffin on the altar, to see if it was the woman with the phoenix bird mark on her left shoulder, knowing that I had seen her turn to ashes and disappear!

I thought to myself as I walked towards the altar. Standing in front of this white coffin, I stretched out a hand to put it on it, rubbing it back and forth like Chen Shengzhi did at the beginning, smooth and cold in my hand.

The strangest thing is that this white coffin has been lying here for I don't know how many years, and there is not a trace of dust or stains on it, which is in stark contrast to the dusty environment around the altar.

I learned the way Chen Shengzhi opened the white coffin in my memory, and put my hand into the gap in the coffin, to my surprise, the coffin lid was not heavy, light and fluttering, and seemed to have no weight.

I jerked my hand up and opened the white coffin.

My eyes widened to see if the contents of the coffin were the woman.

Just as I saw the contents of the coffin, my face changed dramatically, and became so white that I sat on the ground with my butt and trembled like chaff. And as I sat down on the ground, the white coffin board lost its support and fell down again, fastening the white coffin tightly.

Ouch hey! I grass your ancestors, scared Lao Tzu to death!

Because I was educated by my mother since I was a child, I usually don't swear, but at the moment I can't help it anymore, screaming that I don't know who I'm scolding, and I'm so scared that I squat on the ground and tremble.

Soon, I hurriedly ran down the altar, ran far away from the altar, and looked at the white coffin on the altar, with a trace of horror and fear on my face.

it!

The contents of the white coffin were not only not the fairy-like woman I expected, but a monster, a humanoid monster covered in white scale armor!

There was not a trace of hair on its body, only dense and fine scales, and the milky white scale armor looked a little like the white frog outside the first line of heavenly paths, only more dense and crystalline.

I didn't see him clearly, but after a cursory glance, I was already scared.

How could there be a monster covered in white scale armor in the coffin, how could this be? I clearly remember that when Chen Shengzhi opened the white coffin, it was the naked woman lying quietly inside, with an extremely strange bronze mask on her face, her hands on her chest, lying quietly inside, like an immortal descending to the mortal world.

I glanced at the white coffin with palpitations, and I was still a little afraid and frightened. I cursed and soothed my mood as I ran quickly towards the gate of the castle, I wanted to escape, it was too weird here, and I still had to stay by my grandfather's side to feel safe.

But when I got to the door, I stopped again, and I thought of my grandfather, his expectant gaze. There are more than 300 years of planning of my Chen family, and there are things that have changed my fate, but until now, I have gained nothing here except for some extremely strange things.

Perhaps, in that door.

A thought popped into my mind, and I looked into the depths of the castle, because it was too far away for me to see, but I knew that there was a wooden door there, a wooden door that not even the sword could open.

I bit my lip and ran deeper into the castle, and as I passed the altar, I deliberately went far away, lest the sleeping monster suddenly come out and eat me.

Soon, I ran to the wooden door, which was made of unknown material, and it was as dark as if it could absorb all the light.

I don't know if I can open this door, after all, I saw with my own eyes that Chen Shengzhi who was holding the Sun-Covering Sword couldn't open it, can I really be a ten-year-old kid?

I put my two hands on the wooden door, and the phoenix bird mark on my left shoulder suddenly felt a burning sensation, and as soon as I stretched out my hand, I felt that my hand was fluttering.

Chirping!

A harsh sound crept into my ears, and the black, yet tough wooden door slowly opened with my movements.

There was another puff of dust, and a smell of mold and decay, so I hurriedly covered my mouth and nose and hid beside it, and after a while, when the smell and dust inside had dissipated, I stepped inside.

I felt that the answer to all the questions was hidden inside this door.

Walking through a passage a few meters long, inside is a room of about fifty square meters, this place has probably not been entered by a living person for thousands of years, and all objects are covered with a thick layer of dust, covering the history of this place for thousands of years.

The room was completely sealed, except for the passage and the wooden door, there was no connection with the outside world, and there were no candles or other lighting things in the room, but the surrounding walls and roofs were densely inlaid with a strange gem or crystal, these magical objects actually released a faint and cold light, although it could not be said to be bright and transparent, but it could also be seen clearly.

This room seems to be a place to worship the gods, in the center of the room, there is a huge bronze statue of the god, the bronze statue is dressed in green clothes, the posture is upright, and the instrument is magnificent, but when I see the head of this bronze statue, I can't help but be surprised.

The wide mouth and big ears, the eyeballs bulging out in a cylindrical shape, looked very weird, almost the same as the bronze mask that my grandfather took out of the white coffin, but there was no small hole in the forehead of this bronze statue, and there was no phoenix ornament in it.

Is this the deity that those minorities worship?

I was amazed at the bronze statue, and then I was attracted by a bronze tree at the foot of the bronze statue.

This bronze tree is not big, about the same height as me, the whole is divided into three layers, and each layer has three branches, and on the branches of each branch kneels a bronze figure, they are carved lifelike, and they bow down and bow with a reverent face, as if they are worshipping the supreme god.

At the top of the bronze tree is a tray that is not large, but inside it is a white stone.

I'm a little strange, the roofs of those alien races under the stone steps seem to be all white stones, and even the top of the watchtower at the door has two white stones, does this stone have any special meaning?

I reached out and picked up the white stone, and my hand was warm. But I had a faint strange feeling, it seemed that there was something wrong with the white stone in my hand, I pinched the white stone with my hand, it was a little hard, and then I didn't know why I just took this stone and knocked it on the bronze tree on the side.

Bang!

The white stone burst open under my blow, turning into a pile of white powder, and falling to the ground with a splash.

I watched all this dumbfounded, how is this possible? It's so hard to the touch, but it's unimaginable that it was knocked into pieces under a single knock.

At this moment, the phoenix bird mark on my left shoulder actually began to burn again. My face was full of horror, I didn't know how I had just smashed a stone, how it caused the reaction of the imprint, and I was afraid to enter the feeling of being hot again, and life was worse than death.

But to my surprise, this time I did not have that painful condition, but a wave of drowsiness hit, my head became groggy, my eyes were astringent, and after some resistance, I couldn't bear it anymore, closed my eyes, and fell directly to the ground.

It was in a daze again, and I didn't know if I was asleep or awake at the moment. I just felt that the room I was in seemed to have changed, the bronze statue in the center shone with a dazzling luster, and the white stone at the top of the bronze tree looked sacred and solemn in the dark light.

I looked at the white stone at the top of the bronze tree, and a desire rose in my heart, a desire and possession from the depths of my soul.

At this moment, the wooden door outside the aisle suddenly opened, and a man and a woman entered, both dressed in blue robes embroidered with beautiful patterns, and among them, the man, who was short in stature, seemed to be a little taller than me, and looked very strange.

The man walked in front of the bronze tree, his face showed a touch of greed, he stretched out a hand to grab the white stone, the woman on the side seemed to want to stop him at this moment, but the man just turned his head and glared at her, and the woman was so frightened that she stood aside, not daring to speak, but her face was full of crystal tears.

The man picked up the white stone from the bronze tree, looked up to the sky and laughed, his mouth in a language I did not understand, and his face was full of pleasure and greed. The man had laughed enough, and then he took out a white stone from his bosom, placed it on the top of the bronze tree, and then turned away, and the moment he turned around, I saw in a trance that the man had a tail under his blue robe, a gray tail.

I saw the man turn away, and the woman silently followed her. I was immediately anxious, and a thought rose in my heart, that white stone is mine, it belongs to me, and my Chen family's three-hundred-year plan seems to be to let me get it!

I'm anxious, I'm angry, I'm running and following the man, I'm going to snatch the white stone back! That's my stuff and can't be snatched away by that man.

I saw the man step out of the dark wooden door, and I stepped out at once.

But I was immediately stunned, for when I stepped out of the wooden door, I saw not the wide halls of the castle, but an ancient battlefield full of screams and wails.

Next to me is a large rushing river, the water of which is so clear that you can see the bottom at a glance. There were countless people in Tsing Yi by the river, shouting in a language I didn't understand, wielding weapons with flickering cold light in their hands, and their faces were unyielding, with unyielding and resistant, roaring towards the enemy on the opposite side.

On the opposite side of them was a huge army, black and red armor like a maple forest in autumn leaves, spreading all over the mountains and boundless.

Countless warriors looked at these charging Tsing Yi people with cold eyes. Suddenly, the drums and horns sounded, and a banner with the word "Han" hunted and displayed in the wind.

The dense rain of arrows was like locusts passing through, sweeping the blue wave all over the world. The cavalry in iron armor charged like a mountain of seas, and the sound of horses' hooves resounded like thunder through the valley, and like thousands of angry waves crashing against the mountains.

Hideous faces, bloody swords, low howls, smoke and dust.

I watched it all in a daze, and at some point, the battle was over.

I saw a general with blood on the bank of the Lema River, he looked at the river stained red by the blood of the people in Tsing Yi, his face was arrogant, and he said loudly: "This Tsing Yi water has been renamed 'Pingqiang' from now on!" ”

I don't know when, I woke up, opened my eyes, and saw the decaying bronze statue opposite, and the cylindrical eyes shed tears, blood-colored tears!
