Chapter 264: Nether Ghost Domain
It's a very large space, surrounded by steep rock walls.
And at the exit of the passage, directly opposite is a towering wall, I don't know how high it is tens of meters. And on this wall, there are clusters of green plants that I don't know what they are, faintly emitting a faint fluorescence.
They are round as a whole, like a = pearl, and like a closed bud. Leaves stretch out in the round center, and the green leaves are as crystalline as mutton fat jade. It looks as if it is a combination of jadeite and Hetian jade.
Vast expanses of plants spread all over the cliffs, and petty fluorescents flickered in front of them, like a Milky Way falling from nine heavens, like a dream.
However, behind this dreamlike galaxy, next to the clumps of plants, there is a skeleton bound by roots and rattans and embedded in the rock! Skull, arm bones, ribs...... Countless bones are denser and more complex than those from the plants, filling all the space of this rock wall!
The vast cliff face seemed to turn into a cemetery, and the faint glimmer seemed to become a ghostly fire.
The breeze blew, the clumps of plants on the rock wall swayed slightly, and the string of turquoise "Milky Way" swayed, as if countless ghosts were wandering, and the round part in the center trembled slightly, and cracks appeared on it, opening up in an instant.
The people who were staring at the rock wall suddenly felt a chill, and their steps unconsciously retreated.
Xue Rong's hand holding the gun couldn't help but tighten, looked at the front and swallowed his saliva, his voice was a little fluttering: "What the is this!?" ”
The rock wall surrounded by ghostly light, after the center was round and opened, the clumps of plants completely changed their appearance, becoming-
Faces!
Surrounded by ghost fire, white bones are everywhere, and human faces are embedded in the rock wall, as if it is the Yin Mountain in the hell where countless powerful ghosts and ghosts grow. Under the whirring wind, the sound of whimpering sounds, like endless ghosts discussing, tearing them apart.
Even when Jiang Xian saw such a scene, he couldn't help but feel cold in his heart, he took a deep breath, and recalled the words of the ancestor below the mosquito-free village - it is definitely not the world!
Yes, the scene here has a bit of a human appearance, and it is clearly a netherworld!
"It's not a real face, it's just a human face." He froze and said slowly: "It's like a human-faced spider, but the pattern on its body looks like a human face, and this plant is the same, but it looks like a human face when it is opened." ”
"It should be a flower, and those spots of light around it should be sprayed spores."
Gu Mingrui on the side said, and the flashlight shone on the perimeter of the rock wall. Illuminated by the flashlight, those "human faces" shrank in an instant, and suddenly spewed out a fine spot of light!
The long river of blue suddenly became more existent, and under the wind blowing, the blue light flowed around, sweeping over the pieces of bones, making the large white bones covered with green, as if countless ghosts were constantly climbing out of the netherworld hell.
"It's unbelievable......"
Lu Tianyuan exhaled a breath, and was just about to turn his head, when suddenly his eyes froze, and the flashlight was instantly raised, shining straight at the rock wall, and his tone became urgent: "Mr. Jiang, look here!" ”
Jiang Xian immediately turned his head, and his pupils shrank.
At the place where the flashlight shined, several skeletons were stacked on top of each other, and among the stacked bones, some messy metal was scattered beside them, full of traces of corrosion.
In the center of the metal, a blue sky and white sun cockade is quite conspicuous.
He immediately raised his hand, and the flashlight shone towards the ground below the rock wall, and suddenly a broken object came into view. All kinds of broken clothes and weapons were scattered on top of each other, and countless traces of corrosion were revealed on them.
Jiang Xian straightened the gas mask on his head and cautiously stepped forward.
Lu Tianyuan followed forward from the side and took out a sealed jar from his backpack.
The two of them came to the Yin Fire Waterfall, glanced at each other, Lu Tianyuan reached out and opened the jar and threw it violently!
The thrown jar smashed against the wall with a strong wind in an instant, making a sound, and the scattered waterfall was already the same.
After waiting for a while, there were no other changes around, Jiang Xian relaxed slightly, wrapped himself tightly, took a step, and walked in.
Lu Tianyuan followed behind and walked to the rock wall together, looking at the large number of stacks of broken armor and weapons, as well as the broken guns: "Mr. Jiang, these are still the people of the White Lotus Sect Heaven and Earth Society?" ”
Jiang Xian nodded and shook his head: "It's theirs, but it's not just theirs." ”
He walked to the side and pointed to a relatively intact piece of armor on the ground: "You see, this armor has a front placket. The armor has 13 metal plates, which are woven in a stacked way, and the eaves of the helmet are taller than the Qing Dynasty helmet next to it, and there are also long sleeves here......"
"These characteristics are typical of the style of Ming Dynasty armor."
"Oh?" Lu Tianyuan's expression moved: "You mean, there is an army of the Ming Dynasty here?" ”
"Yes." Jiang Xian's face showed a hint of thought, and he looked at the sides around: "Moreover, there are quite a few ......"
"The Ming Dynasty has rebuilt the Great Shangqing Palace six times...... Now it seems that it was not just a construction. ”
"However, why didn't you see any traces and corpses of the Ming army on the upper floor?" Lu Tianyuan frowned slightly: "Based on the above situation, I don't believe that the army of the Ming Dynasty can be elite to the extent that it leaves no traces and does not die." ”
"Even in many places, they shouldn't even be able to collect the body."
Jiang Xian nodded: "That's right, but ...... The first layer now is not the seventh layer hundreds of years ago. ”
Well? Lu Tianyuan was stunned for a moment, and then suddenly said: "You mean...... The first layer wasn't so dangerous in the first place? ”
"Yes." Jiang Xian looked around and continued: "The shadow cellar is a blockade, and the lower the blockade, the longer, longer, and tighter the blockade. Many of the monsters I've seen before have come up from the floors below. ”
Lu Tianyuan recalled the countless white bones he had just seen when he entered the second layer, and couldn't help but nodded.
"From what I know, it's getting dangerous. Perhaps, a few hundred years ago, there were only a few monsters in the first layer that were not worth mentioning. Even a hundred years ago, the first layer was not very dangerous, otherwise the Heaven and Earth would have been the White Lotus Sect, and those people would not have hidden the treasure so deeply no matter what. ”
Although this was just Jiang Xian's speculation, Lu Tianyuan felt that it was the truth nine times out of ten when he heard it.
After all, such a large amount of gold and silver needs to be transported by a lot of people, and if it is similar to the current situation, how many people who come in can get out alive?
"The man with the sword once said that this is a matter of the four dynasties...... Mao Ziyuan is the Song Dynasty, Ba Si Pa is the Yuan, and now the Ming and Qing dynasties have also gathered, which is in line with the words of the four dynasties. ”
Jiang Xian's thoughts flashed in his heart, although so, there are still many mysteries that have not been cleared, whether it is how the Ming Dynasty obtained the news here, or the various things after Ba Si Pa and Mao Ziyuan, and even the reason why Yongzheng obtained the white lotus jade foot, they are all hidden in the mist.
"Perhaps, that's something to be answered later, right?"
His eyes flickered slightly, in addition to these, there were also the bones of the ancestor and the ancestor. Now it seems that both of them should have gone deep into the depths of the shadow cellar.
He looked up,
Rustling......
A subtle voice suddenly sounded, Jiang Xian's eyes suddenly froze, the muscles on his body instantly tensed, and he looked around with great vigilance. The same is true for Lu Tianyuan on the side, although nothing happened to the canned food with meat thrown before, as if it was safe, but they all remember-
On this steep rock wall, countless corpses were bound by root rattans.
People don't climb up on their own and be turned into fertilizer by those human plants.
The voice was very soft and subtle, Jiang Xian's ears trembled slightly, and he didn't hear the voice coming. He turned his head slightly, looked at Lu Tianyuan, and instantly reached a point.
The two walked slowly, back to back, and walked out together.
The breeze blew, and the cold feeling crossed the skin, and goosebumps stood up, as if a ghost in hell was blowing the yin wind.
Stepping out of the turquoise waterfall and walking quickly to everyone's side, Jiang Xian still looked left and right vigilantly, and then looked at Lin Ruoxue: "After we went in just now, did you find anything and hear anything?" ”
Lin Ruoxue shook her head: "No, did you hear something inside?" ”
Jiang Xian nodded, his eyes looked around, in front of this ghostly fire, like a hellish rock wall, he always had an uncomfortable feeling, as if something was secretly staring at him.
And when I heard that voice before, this feeling was the strongest.
This place is not to stay for long!
He trusts his own intuition, a master of ancient methods, each of whom has a keen intuition, and many times, this intuition can save lives. And after solving the curse, he felt that his intuition was getting stronger and stronger.
"Let's go."
He glanced at the rock wall and turned his head towards the path he had already planned.
When the group was far away, the faces on the rock wall moved, their rattans colliding with each other, their smiling faces moving around. Like the front of the turquoise Yin River, it also rotated, forming a huge funnel vortex.
The clusters of plants are clustered together, and if one looks at them from a distance, they can be seen that they form a pattern.
A skull with an eerie smile.
……………………
Jiang Xian turned his head suddenly, and the flashlight instantly shone around, but it was still the same as just now, ordinary rocks, ordinary dirt, and ordinary roads. And the ordinary plants that grew on the rocky ground.
Again......
His brow furrowed slightly, and from time to time he felt something peeking at him since he left the rock wall.
But no matter how he investigated, he didn't find out what was snooping.
Even when she asked Lin Ruoxue, she didn't find anything.
It is true that he can be trusted, but his own intuition has always been trustworthy. Taking a deep breath, Jiang Xian turned his head and continued to move forward. It's just that, in the left hand, the exquisite dice are ready to go.
