Chapter 58 The Bronze Gate of the Tomb Road

Chu You hurriedly looked in that direction.

With the faint light of the fire around him, at a glance, he saw that there were really a lot of dried corpses scattered at the end of the place where the fat ghost said.

However, the light here was dim, and even his ghost eyes and heavy pupils were difficult to see, so he whispered to the fat ghost: "There should be something strange, let's go over and take a look." ”

With that, he got up and walked forward, and the fat ghost behind him picked up a long bone with flames attached to it to keep up with the light.

The two of them walked forward, and in less than twenty steps came to the place where the fat man had picked up the dried corpse.

I saw that there were many dried corpses scattered on the ground, and the bones were like firewood, and their faces were hideous, as if they had been greatly tortured in their lives. In addition to the corpses, there are also a lot of rubble and bricks on the ground, and the deeper you go, the denser the broken bricks become.

"Is there a building underground?"

Chu You squatted down and picked up a broken cyan brick, its texture was hard and not crushed when he held it vigorously, it didn't seem to be an ordinary brick.

"Let's go forward!"

As he spoke, he continued to walk towards the dark "abyss".

Unconsciously, the two of them walked another thirty or fifty steps, and there were more and more broken bricks under their feet, until they were simply connected into a green brick road. The rock wall next to it is also inlaid with bluestone, and if you look around, you have basically walked into a road.

This road is about three zhang high, and the width of both sides is five zhang square, which is not very large but never crowded. The upper and lower sides are made of large cyan stone bricks, although the appearance is vicissitudes, but each piece is square and tight, meticulous.

"This tunnel has been cultivated with some effort, and such neat things are rare in the Hungry Ghost Road. ”

Chu You stroked the green bricks on the wall and sighed.

However, the fat man was completely disdainful, and shouted in a loud voice: "Such rough stone bricks are so neatly made, I don't know how difficult it is for these craftsmen." ”

Obviously, he was born in a temple and knows more about the suffering of the world.

The two of them continued to walk forward, and although the corpses were still everywhere, all kinds of murals began to appear on the stone walls at both ends.

These murals are not exquisite, but they can accurately convey the meaning. And this kind of dry vicissitudes can make people feel the passage of time.

The two of them lifted the torch and shone it at the murals, only to see that the paintings on each mural were not "dragons and phoenixes", "mountains, rivers and plants", but "humanistic wars" and "purgatory".

When these murals are viewed together, they probably introduce the image of a human emperor who led thousands of troops and horses around the battle, and although he praised himself as a saint and gentleman, he also loved to use tyranny and severe punishment.

"What did I think, it turned out to be a tyrant who brought disaster to the country and the people. He thinks that he will last forever, but he does not exercise benevolence and withholds the people. In the end, he was spurned by 10,000 people! This kind of person is a poor monk. ”

The fat ghost spat directly on the ground after seeing it, obviously extremely indignant about it.

"How can the tomb of a human emperor appear in the path of hungry ghosts? ”

Chu You took the fat ghost's torch and took a picture of the mural behind. And with the lighting of the torches, I can't help but find that the subsequent murals are almost completely different from the previous ones.

The previous mural also depicts a variety of "national peace and security, dragon and phoenix peace", and the next mural depicts this human emperor dying of a serious illness and suffering miserably in the underworld. Scenes of swords, mountains and fires, purgatory vipers.

Although the mural is simple, the two who have experienced all this naturally know what kind of suffering is contained in it.

The human emperor in the mural also roared at the sky, and through the pictures, you could feel the resentment and hatred that killed the heavens and the earth.

"You deserve it!"

The fat ghost quenched again with contempt.

Chu You was noncommittal, picked up the torch and continued to read.

A few more frescoes have passed, and the human emperor has been banished to the land of hungry ghosts.

But probably because he had been tortured in hell before, he was a strong and cruel man. When he came here, he didn't sink as he imagined. On the contrary, he cultivated seriously, absorbed dead qi, and with the accumulation of thousands of years, he was stunned to cultivate into a ghost emperor!

"This kind of pig and dog can also become a ghost emperor? I don't think he even has half of the heart of the blood armor corpse king! If he can become a ghost emperor, wouldn't cats and dogs be able to become immortals and become Buddhas!"

The fat ghost scolded before he finished reading it!

"No matter how much you scold him, he's dead, let's be stable and don't make any changes. ”

Chu You motioned for the fat ghost to continue looking.

However, the subsequent murals are still wars of thousands of troops, but there is no portrayal of the previous hypocritical national peace and security, and there are only endless war killings and extravagant pleasures. Not only that, but there are also various scenes where he led his troops to attack various human worlds, each of which was full of wolf smoke and ruined lives.

The two sighed at each other and continued to look at each other, and they were bored with the mural after that.

The remaining murals probably depict the story of him who was tired of leading troops to kill for a long time, and finally built a huge tomb with his harvest over the years, and rested in this land after his death.

Pompous and old-fashioned.

"Look, he's dead. Lives are one less disaster. ”

Chu You exhaled and muttered, "I really don't know how he thought he was a good emperor in the past. ”

"What emperor would think that he is bad, if he doesn't change the dynasty, who would dare to judge the merits and demerits?"

The fat ghost replied casually, as if he had pierced the illusion of the human cycle in a single sentence.

"Every world has its own will, and in the human world, you will be sent to hell if you are lascivious. But in this world, the killing tyranny is at the mercy of Providence. ”

"Then it's no wonder that he can cultivate like a fish in water, it seems that the world of living beings that he has conquered under his hands is probably not a small number. ”

After the two talked for a while, they didn't find it interesting. After looking at the stone wall again, there was only so much to say, so I walked forward again. After walking for nearly 100 meters, I finally came to the end of this narrow cemetery.

At the end of the tomb is a broken bronze door, the copper door is a bit heavy, but the scale is not very large, compared to this narrow tomb can only be regarded as decent. The dull patina of the bronze door covered its body, and the corrosion of time seemed to be particularly severe on it.

Chu You stepped forward and stroked it gently, and pieces of rust fell.

He had no doubt that the dilapidated bronze door would not withstand any slashing. If you go down with your own heavy sword, you will definitely be able to split it.

However, the dried corpses that came along the way made him dispel his thoughts. The situation is unknown, and you must not risk yourself.

In this ghost realm, everyone has an almost infinite life, but it is the cautious people who can really survive to the end.

Just as Chu You gave up splitting the copper door, the fat ghost on the side touched the lock with his hand. A pair of fat hands played with the patina on the lock, and with a slight force, the door opened.

"It turns out that this bronze door is not locked, but it is just hidden!"
