Chapter 265: Incongruous Frescoes
Smack!
Long Tiansheng's feet fell to the ground, panting heavily, and fine beads of sweat continued to gush out of his black and white hair. The feeling of exhaustion continued to come out of his body, and he turned his head to look at the person who was paralyzed on the ground, and the corners of his mouth twitched slightly.
There is no attrition, which can be said to be the only good news during this time.
The crossbow arrows fired in volleys, the stones pierced through the air, and even though he had escaped from the ascension, he couldn't help but palpitate when he thought of the scene at that time.
"Fortunately, over the past few hundred years, with the intervention of the monsters here, the institutions set up by the Ming Dynasty have been damaged a lot."
He slowed down, and several gray shadows swooped out from his cuffs, probing around. Since entering the second layer, crises have appeared one after another, and there is hardly a moment of peace, and now they are physically and mentally exhausted, and if they come again to the crisis of the previous level, they will inevitably suffer a heavy blow.
After a while, gray shadows came back one after another, re-entering the cuffs, making his heart slightly calm.
At least, the area is safe now.
"Ahem......" he opened his mouth, and some hoarse voices came out of his throat: "Take a good rest, take care of your wounds, and after half an hour, continue to set off." ”
Yamamoto and the others did not speak, silently healing, although they were very tired, but their minds did not dare to relax in the slightest.
The previous circumstances really made them have to be vigilant.
Fortunately, it has been calm.
Long Tiansheng touched the items in his arms, his heart was slightly settled, his mind recalled the previous information, and looked left and right. The bluestone paved ground is very flat, but there are many cracks under the erosion of the years.
Some of the stone slabs have obvious signs of shattering, and there are still pieces of broken stone scattered on the ground.
The walls on both sides are neatly laid with bricks and stones, and many frescoes are carved on them. In this mural, there are several strange beasts that protrude from the mural, their bodies bulging outward, more like sculptures than the mural.
And these strange beasts are also very familiar - red dragons, fierce tigers.
"From the first floor to here, there are depictions of dragons and tigers." Long Tiansheng's eyes moved slightly, the dragon and tiger Shandan became a dragon and a tiger, and the legends of the nine dragons and one tiger are closely related to the dragon and tiger.
Among them, the dragon naturally does not need to be said, there are many traces, according to the information and all kinds here, it can be known that it is not a candle dragon, or the son of Zhongshan Drum, but this tiger ...... But it's very mysterious, and no trace has been revealed.
If he hadn't seen the internal dossier of the Immortal Society and these murals, he would have even thought that the so-called tiger was just to be taken out to correspond to the dragon.
At the foot of Dragon and Tiger Mountain, there is no so-called divine tiger at all.
"From what is happening here, we are close to the core of this level, and the next road ......"
The hand he held the item in his arms tightened again, and the person who handed over the things to him said that whether he could go down or go out from Longhu Mountain or not depends on the items in his arms. And along the way, this thing did have some effect.
But that's not the most important thing...... The only thing that can really play an absolute role in the shadow cellar is the white lotus lamp.
"It's a pity...... Now, it's not the time to meet with Jiang Boy. ”
He thought about it in his heart, leaned against the wall, and slowly closed his eyes to recuperate. After resting for half an hour and looking at his watch, he stood up first: "Let's go." ”
Yamamoto and the others immediately stood up and walked forward together, and everyone's flashlights swept around, so that they could see the mural on it clearly.
"Huh?" A person blinked in surprise, and said with some hesitation: "Mr. Long, these murals don't seem to be the same as what we saw before......
Long Tiansheng's footsteps paused slightly: "It's different, what's different?" ”
The man's brows condensed slightly, and the flashlight carefully swept the surroundings, passing over the figures, fierce beasts, and large mountains and forests...... The rough and wild painting style, which itself lacks details, was painstakingly observed, and only spoke after a while:
"Don't you think...... These monsters and people, compared to the surrounding environment, seem to be a little incongruous? ”
Incongruous
Long Tiansheng stared at the monster figures on the wall and the surrounding scene carefully, and after careful inspection, he did feel a trace of incongruity. But if he was asked to say what was incongruous, he couldn't say it.
For a while, the brows couldn't help but tighten even tighter.
Yamamoto and the others next to him also observed carefully, but they also didn't find the slightest thing, and they didn't even see where the slightest incongruity was.
After another moment, Long Tiansheng retracted his gaze: "There is indeed a problem with the murals here, but it is not something that can be explored clearly in a while. Let's go, it's still more important now. ”
He took a step forward, but he had these images engraved in his mind.
……………………
The footsteps rubbed against the ground, making a slight sound, and everyone was in a calm posture, but the muscles under the cover of the clothes were already tense. Those eyes, which seemed to be a little scattered, had inadvertently recorded everything around them.
Not only Jiang Xian, but Lu Tianyuan and others, who have experienced many life-and-death struggles, all have the feeling of being spied on.
However, even with their ability to detect and counter-detect, they did not find the creatures that were secretly watching.
Not even a sound.
If it weren't for the fact that several people were firm in their hearts and extremely confident people, I am afraid that they would have self-doubt.
"However, even if it is an insect watching, it should be traceable...... What's going on here? Under Jiang Xian's calm face, thoughts flew in his mind, this time the situation was really incredible.
His sixth sense of intuition is much stronger than that of ordinary people, but he still doesn't realize it.
Walking forward step by step, the rock wall above became lower and lower, from a few tens of meters of the cliff to ten meters.
"This road is definitely not built by Pan' for himself......" This thought flashed through his mind, with the shape of a giant, the ten-meter-high passage was too low. Even if he died, it would be difficult for the corpse to be transported from here, let alone ......
This one, however, thinks that he is in charge of life and death.
But there was a stay, and death was just a new life.
The layout of the mosquito-free village and the stone carvings in Zhouhu Village all reflect that this god wants to give birth to a new life from death.
Of course, he failed, and his body was separated and buried by Rong Wu, but that didn't mean that the shadow cellar as the main tomb would not be in line with his philosophy.
The moment the right foot landed on the ground, and the left foot was lifted forward, a chill suddenly rose from the soles of the feet! The feeling of the scalp exploding appeared instantly, Jiang Xian was full of excitement, his body instinctively rolled to the side and forward, and his right hand instantly pulled out the big black umbrella and opened it at the moment of rolling!
When ——!
The sound of the collision suddenly appeared, and it was as if it was thundering.
A string of firelight flashed on the ground, and it was exactly where Jiang Xian had just stood!
But before he could have a trace of happiness in his heart, the black long straight in his hand trembled suddenly, and a huge force rushed straight down from the umbrella surface, and the umbrella surface mixed with spider silk and heavenly silk suddenly collapsed, and the umbrella bones made a burst of clicking sounds, violently trembling, as if they would be at any time.
Sou!
The sunken surface of the umbrella snapped back, and a golden streamer swept through the darkness and jerked upwards.
The pressure in Jiang Xian's hand was small, his heart suddenly relaxed, and his body retreated instantly, holding a black umbrella in both hands, and looked up vigilantly from the gap.
Lu Tianyuan and the others behind him had already tightened their weapons, their eyes were staring at the top tightly, but the golden figure just now was too fast and fast, even Lin Ruoxue's heavenly vision could not grasp the position where the other party disappeared.
In the darkness, silently, Jiang Xian raised his umbrella upward, his spirit was tense to the extreme, and he sensed the surrounding situation with all his might.
After a while, the surroundings were already calm, and the golden creature seemed to know that it was not the right time to make a move, and it never appeared.
Putting the umbrella away and hanging it to the ground, Jiang Xian's gaze suddenly froze as he looked around.
It was a rather wide road, about seventy or eighty meters wide, but on this wide road, corpses were scattered and scattered. The tattered garments on the ground were messy, and many of them were corroded and damaged.
Slowly stepping forward, the group came to the corpse, Gu Mingrui bent down, his gloved hands touched the bones on his forehead, and as soon as he picked up a head, his eyes shrank suddenly!
At the very top of this skull, a round hole the thickness of an adult's thumb came into view!
His heart was already abrupt, and he hurriedly picked up the rest of the skulls next to him, the second, third, and fourth......
In an instant, he looked at the surrounding skulls, and his voice was a little astringent: "Mr. Jiang, you see, there is a hole above all the skulls here...... Moreover, they are all holes of the same size. ”
The top of the head, the holes, the same size......
The thoughts flashed in Jiang Xian's mind, his eyes swept over the skulls, and he glanced at everyone, and then they all looked up.
The pitch-black top was dotted with bare rocks, scattered dark plants growing on top, and nothing else.
But everyone seemed to see golden insects hiding between the layers of rock walls, ready to leap out and penetrate the skulls at any time.
The golden streamer was heading towards the top of his head at that time!
He couldn't help but tighten his hand holding the black long straight, recalling the swift and powerful figure, looking at the bones in this place, his eyes couldn't help but become solemn.
Heaven and Earth Society, White Lotus Sect, Ming Army, Qing Army, National Army...... All the characters you see when you enter the Shadow Cellar, there are them here. And it doesn't appear alone, it's a squad of squads spread on the ground.
"If it's just one, even if he's fast, he can't kill so many people at the same time."
"The bones of the same team should be scattered."
"But here, these squads are all in a tight group."
There is only one truth.
Jiang Xian raised his head and said in a deep voice: "It's not one...... There was more than one thing that struck me just now. ”
I looked at the white bones around me again: "Here, I'm afraid it's their hunting ground!" ”
