Chapter 221: Eighteen Hundred Years

How can there be the imprint of mountains and seas here?

Jiang Xian's heart tightened, and he immediately walked over.

The walls of the palace are paved with blue, black and yellow bricks and stones, and the texture of the walls is uneven, but it is scattered. These chaotic textures combine with each other to build the appearance of a piece of mountains and seas connected and interdependent.

"Black water, green wood, loess ......"

His gaze swept over the lines and landed on the corner of the mountain peak pattern, where the stones that were almost different from the square bricks pressed against each other, and together they formed a pattern like a long sword.

This pattern, he is familiar with the anomaly, has accompanied him almost day and night all these years.

Slay the dragon!

A token of the mountains and seas, the form of the dragon sword!

Although at first glance this mark does not resemble a dragon slaying, this rough and broken pattern is just right for the texture of its interior.

"That's right, this mark is left by the ancestors of the mountains and seas...... No one else can imitate it. He took a deep breath, his eyes changed slightly, although the ancestor had been to Longhu Mountain, but according to Xu Zhenren's description, he had never been here.

And judging by the traces on the walls, it is at least fifteen hundred years old.

"So, this patriarch came here thousands of years ago and left a mark, but there is no relevant record in the door......" His thoughts kept flashing, and his eyes immediately turned to the door next to him.

A bronze door.

There are some intricate lines carved on it, and the chaotic lines are intertwined with each other, without the slightest sense of beauty, not even the graffiti of a child of four or five years old.

The central animal head clasp is full of mottled marks, which seems to tell the changes of time.

Lin Ruoxue, who came over, turned her head to look at him and asked softly, "Do you want to go in?" ”

"Of course you have to go in." Jiang Xian nodded and walked towards the door: "But it's not through a door." ”

"Huh? Don't pass through the door? ”

The credit knife man was stunned, and before he could figure out what it meant, Jiang Xian's hands were already on the buckle. The two hands moved instantly, and the left and right hands and the buckle actually brought out an afterimage!

Click!

A crisp sound came from the palace in an instant, and then a continuous sound sounded, and the rock connected to the wall next to the gate suddenly trembled slightly, and slowly moved to the sides.

A pitch-black hole immediately appeared, and flames appeared on the walls on both sides of the cave, and spread in an instant, forming a long green corridor.

The flames flickered gently, and the turquoise light illuminated the path that led below.

"This ......"

The man with the credit knife was stunned, looked at Jiang Xian and said, "Mr. Jiang...... Could it be that this palace has something to do with your mountains and seas? ”

"If nothing else, this should have been built by an ancestor a thousand or two thousand years ago." Jiang Xian walked to the entrance of the cave: "The inside of the palace is the bright room, and the rock wall leads to the dark room, and the really important information will only be placed here." ”

He stepped in first, and the credit knife man and Lin Ruoxue followed.

The three of them stepped into the stairs and took two steps forward, when a dull sound appeared behind them, and with a thud, the stone door slammed shut.

A gust of wind flickered the somewhat dim lights, and countless shadows flickered endlessly under the blue color of the forest, like ghostly ghosts wandering around.

The man walked over to the wall and looked carefully at the sconces.

The sconces were ordinary, even old, with a candle made of grease at the center, and beside the candle, some very familiar marks came into his eyes.

"It's ...... Guano? Guano of an ostrich? ”

The words of the credit knife man made Jiang Xianlin Ruoxue stunned, the two glanced at each other, and then their bodies immediately moved to look at the rest of the lamps, and soon passed by a wall lamp. And these lamps, without exception, all have traces of the feces.

"Remember?" Jiang Xian's eyes moved slightly: "When the credit knife man fled before, his feet rubbed against the ground, and then a ghost fire was ignited......

"On the ground there, there is the droppings of a fowl...... Lin Ruoxue recalled slightly, and her eyes showed a sudden expression: "And after leaving that passage, it has never appeared again." ”

"As I said before, there can't be so much phosphorus in the human body...... "There is a hint of realization in the eyes of the man on credit: "This is true, but the feces of the ostrich itself contain a very large amount of phosphorus...... And the passage at the exit of the hall is the excrement of the flamanders......"

That makes sense......

"Do you remember what the Classic of Mountains and Seas said about the bird at the end?" Jiang Xian turned his head to look at Lin Ruoxue.

"What are you talking about...... 'Seeing the Great Drought in Qiyi'?" Lin Ruoxue's brows moved slightly, and her eyes lit up slightly: "Do you think that this so-called great drought is caused by the ghost fire brought by the large amount of phosphorus in their dung?" ”

"This is the most plausible explanation of the known conditions."

Jiang Xian spoke, stepping forward.

This turquoise passage, which extends downwards, is about two hundred meters long, and on the rough walls, a few murals with rough lines occasionally emerge.

After just a cursory look, he knew that this dark chamber was modified on the basis of this large tomb, and there was a shortage of manpower at that time. Otherwise, with the artistic level and habits of the mountains and seas, these meaningless and low-level murals will definitely not be retained, and will be replaced with more magnificent patterns.

"Is there a way to use the storeroom......

He was suddenly curious in his heart, although the method of hiding the room was much easier than building a dark room and secret passage by himself, it also required a lot of strength and energy.

And this patriarch has to find out this secret passage in the dark room without manpower, and he is even more curious about the secrets hidden inside.

The three of them continued to move forward, and a chill continued to come from the surroundings.

When they walked through this two-hundred-meter passage, the chill on their bodies reached the maximum, and their eyes were also cheerful.

In the dim light, in the wide cave, at the top of the cave above, stalactites several meters thick like spears and swords extended downward. The crystalline body reflects a faint light, like a colorful bamboo forest.

"It's ...... Underground caves? The swordman's expression changed suddenly, and his eyes flickered.

Lin Ruoxue glanced at him strangely: "What's wrong with the underground cave?" ”

"Under normal circumstances, it's naturally fine...... "The knife man glanced at her and said slowly, "However, according to my previous understanding of the situation near the mosquito-free village, there is only one place where there is a chance to form an underground cave. ”

"Below the Luxi River!"

Jiang Xian and Lin Ruoxue's expressions were all condensed, the Luxi River was the river in front of the mosquito-free village, they entered from the north mountain, and they actually went around and around, and came to the location of the mosquito-free village again!

"Since the patriarch has built a secret passage here, it means that this place is very close to the core of the tomb, which means ......"

"Although the entrance is Beishan, the core point is indeed near the mosquito-free village?"

"It seems that the location where the mosquito-free village was established back then was indeed carefully selected......"

Thoughts flashed through Jiang Xian's mind, and he stepped inside. On the walls of the cave hung a dim oil lamp, the light flickering slightly, reflecting a myriad of colors. These walls are mostly covered with stalactites without the slightest trace.

Only a flat wall is carved with rough murals.

He walked over and looked at the mural, his eyes shrinking!

On the mural, there is a creature he is very familiar with, the gecko!

Geckos that have appeared in Zhouhu Village!

He immediately took a deep breath and looked carefully at the first mural, which was a dead drum that had been refined into a lot of corpse oil. And behind this painting, in the area where the corpse oil is stored, a gecko, a small gecko the size of a palm, appears.

It, drank corpse oil.

His breathing was slightly rapid, his brain became excited, and his eyes quickly looked at the mural behind him:

The gecko that ate the corpse oil broke through its own limits, growing faster and faster, and getting bigger and bigger!

And so it was...... Sure enough, it was the gecko mutation caused by corpse oil! So the big gecko in Zhouhu Village is because of the other side flower that has absorbed the corpse oil? ”

A hint of understanding flashed in Jiang Xian's eyes, and then a trace of doubt appeared: "But...... The corpse insects that eat the flowers on the other side have not changed so much, huh? Moreover, both Sniper and Ostrich have the opportunity to come into contact with corpse oil, so why hasn't there been a mutation? ”

"The mutation of corpse oil seems to be completely different from how the fruit is, and there is no universality."

After summarizing slightly, he continued to look back, and the gecko, which had become huge, began to sweep in all directions, snipers, corpse insects, and salamanders...... All of them were no match for it, they became its food.

Until one day, a drum appeared, bit the gecko to death, and swallowed the flesh, leaving only a skeleton.

"The bird retreated because of the gecko's inner dan...... Is the root cause here? ”

Jiang Xian thought for a moment, his eyes moved again, and he placed it behind the mural. There was a mess there, like a child's graffiti, and he couldn't see what it was, but in his eyes, it was so familiar and clear.

The secret words of the mountains and seas!

Even though he had already guessed it, he was still relieved when he saw this secret word at this time, and after calming down, he began to carefully decipher and translate the above words:

"The one who can come here and understand this must be my junior. It seems that I must have failed, and the bottom of Yunjin Mountain is really not a place to explore deeply. ”

Jiang Xian's eyes suddenly condensed, Yunjin Mountain is the original name of Longhu Mountain, this patriarch, sure enough, he has entered the bottom of Longhu Mountain!

He continued to look behind him:

"Originally, I was hesitant to leave this record, but after thinking about it, being able to come here shows that you have a lot of fate with this, maybe it can really be done? So, junior boy, remember the next words-"

"The biggest problem with the mountains and seas is the death curse of the twenty-five-year-old."

"And the way or clue to break the curse is in Yunjin Mountain! The specific location is under the thatched hall of the old thing Zhang Ling. ”

Jiang Xian's pupils contracted suddenly, and he took a deep breath, he knew that the location of the grass hall had been expanded many times later, and it was renamed during the Song Huizong period-Dashang Qing Palace!

That is, 002.

"Is it the second method of the Nine Palace Flying Star?" Thoughts flashed in his mind, and then he was a little relieved: "Yes, to be able to break the curse of the Black Death Butterfly is only possible with these miraculous immortal methods." ”

Judging from the tone, this patriarch and Zhang Tianshi are friends of the same era.

As early as the Eastern Han Dynasty, the mountains and seas have touched the clues to solve the curse.

But it wasn't until more than 1,800 years later that the curse still spread to him.
