Chapter 37: Imperial Characters
This wound is hideous and terrifying, like a dead pigskin that has been scratched, after more than a thousand years, there is still a dark red flesh and blood, this wound is not stitched, the skin and flesh turned out on both sides are sticky to each other, and it seems that it is still squirming slightly! And on both sides of this wound, on his entire back, there are dozens of scarlet blood marks! Grandpa's sword wound is also impressive!
If such an injury had been man-made, I could hardly have imagined the brutality of the person who did it!
My grandfather and grandson couldn't help but fall into a short silence, Zhu Qingyun suddenly noticed something unusual, stretched out his head to look, and couldn't help but vomit after just one glance! Seeing this, although Xiao Yu hadn't seen the hideousness of the wound clearly, she hurriedly covered her eyes and didn't dare to look at it directly!
At this moment, Grandpa actually squatted down again, holding a bronze dagger, and flicked at the sticky wound, and then picked the flesh on one side and saw his belly!
The third uncle and I couldn't help but shrink our pupils, because the soldier's belly was empty, and all the internal organs were gone!
Rao is my stomach at the moment, and I can't help but turn the river and the sea! But after the grandfather withdrew the bronze sword, he still stared at the back of the dead corpse, and after a pause, he turned his head to look at Xiao Yu, and said in a deep voice: "I think, we have discovered the true secret of this heavenly wish!" All the bizarreness, in front of this dead body, seems normal! It's not surprising that I've survived to this point! β
When the third uncle and I heard this, we couldn't help but be full of surprise, and the third uncle asked, "Dad?" Miscellaneous... What secret? β
Grandpa got up slowly, and said in a complicated tone: "The turbulence of the leylines is far from being easily completed by the power of the feng shui pattern, not to mention that it can also ensure that this city will not be destroyed, ten thousand people will not rot, and even the living will live forever!" This heavenly public wish pattern, seventy-two different mounds, heaven and earth are all auxiliary, the real means, this is it! β
Grandpa pointed to the back of the dead corpse again, and our eyes fell on the blood marks on his back, and Grandpa's whispers also stirred up endless turbulence at this time:
"It'sβthe royal character!"
"What!?"
The exclamations of several of us sounded at the same time, the power of the royal character, it is very reasonable to explain, the living soul, change the world, lead the vision, and be more lucky, every unbelievable thing is in the royal character! It is not an exaggeration to call it unpredictable, and there are not many records of it in the country, but the words used are mostly exclamations such as the control of all things, its power to the sky, and even other wild history rumors mention this technique, and it is mostly praised for its magic.
Grandpa should have felt something in this bloodstain, so he was sure of the power of the royal character, as for me and the third uncle, the Tao is obviously not as good as my grandfather, but looking at these bloodstains seems to be artificial, and the chaos gives people a sense of naturalness, mysterious and unpredictable!
And Zhu Qingyun couldn't help but walk closer and take a closer look, along the way, her current view of Zhou Yizhi has also completely changed, but the power of the imperial character that is powerful through the sky still seems to be a little difficult to shake her scientific cognition, she said softly: "This... In this entire underground space, everything we see is bizarre because of the blood stains on the back of this dead man? Is this really what you call the royal character? β
"No one knows the way of the royal character in the world, even if it is up and down for 5,000 years, there are very few people who know the truth!" Grandpa slowly explained: "It may be invisible, it may be a form that we have never known before, and it may be a thing!" Or maybe it's just an ordinary charm! But its divine power is definitely there, and these blood marks may be the imprint of the imperial characters! If I'm not mistaken, the rest of the living dead must have this imprint as well! Perhaps, the entire dungeon, the entire underground space, is part of the royal character! β
"Imprint! Part of the royal characters! β
Grandpa's explanation couldn't help but make Zhu Qingyun's doubts even worse, she endured her nausea, wanting to see a hint of clues, but her frowning brows were the same as the doubts I had when I first knew the word 'royal character'! When I first learned about this technique in the national warrior line, I was shocked by its divine power, and I asked my grandfather at that time, according to my grandfather's words, to be precise, the royal character should not belong to the way of charms, it should be a method! A method that can communicate the ethereal aura between heaven and earth!
Maybe the ancient immortals are actually a group of aliens who are proficient in royal characters, maybe not as heaven and earth as we think now, but they definitely have the power that people can't reach!
Of course, from the point of view of science now, there is obviously no aura between heaven and earth, and later I also studied it carefully, it should be called a method of communicating the magnetic field is more accurate, or in other words, the way of the royal character is a means of recreating the magnetic field, based on itself, and then innovating the magnetic field, affecting the surrounding things, just like now, the power of the huge magnetic field leads to the change of the leylines, but it is because of its power that it can protect the thirty-six mountains and mountains to sink into the ground safely, and control the resurrection of the living dead in the entire dungeon!
At this moment, there was a sound of armor rubbing outside the alley gradually approaching, we didn't dare to stay, the third uncle looked towards the wooden house, and also found the wooden door on the other side at this time, and immediately turned his head and said: "Miss Zhu, don't look at it, modern science can't explain much, but the way of the royal character does exist, but there are not many inheritors in the past generations, and it has completely withered now!" Take this Three Kingdoms of the Eastern Han Dynasty, where Cao Cao is located, how do you think Zhuge Kongming borrowed the east wind? The soldiers surrounded the valley above, how did the old thief Sima cause heavy rain from the sky? β
The third uncle's words couldn't help but not interrupt Zhu Qingyun's doubts, but made her even more confused, and Zhu Feng has been curled up in the corner since he entered the wooden house, shaking, looking frightened, muttering non-stop, I approached, his loss of voice has begun to dissipate, fortunately at this moment the lamp oil is angry and angry, but I don't worry about him making a sound, vaguely he seems to be repeating a sentence, I listened carefully, only vaguely heard the word 'no', I don't know what he wants to say no!
I shook my head, and just wanted to get up, but he grabbed his arm again, the horror in his eyes was even worse, and the voice in his mouth was faintly clear, but I could still only make out the word 'no'! I sighed helplessly, broke free of his palm, and whispered to Zhu Qingyun:
"Let's go, these soldiers defending the city seem to be coming soon, take care of your father!"
Seeing this, Zhu Qingyun hurriedly came to the front and comforted Zhu Qingyun again, I don't know if it is because they are father and daughter, under Zhu Qingyun's comfort, this Zhu Feng can quickly recover his calm every time, and the third uncle also knocked open another wooden door, signaling us to hurry over, and my grandfather's eyes fell on Xiaoyu at this moment, if the power of the character is still not enough to dispel our doubts, then the 'royal character' behind the living dead at this moment is enough to make us completely reassured, Xiaoyu faces this' The royal character didn't show anything unusual, and the last trace of vigilance in grandpa's eyes was lowered, and he whispered to me: "Look after her!" If I can really rescue an ancient girl, such a great merit, maybe I can change my luck! β
I nodded, grandpa's merit is not the merit of saving people, but Xiaoyu herself, she is the miracle of the entire underground space, a collection of royal character aura, if you take her out, a little means may really change the fate of my old Zheng family!
I immediately came to Xiaoyu's side, stretched out my palm to her, plus the standard smile of the big brother next door, she was still a little afraid, but finally stretched out her white palm, I pulled it up, the touch in my hand is a little different, so far in my life, I have only touched a few times like Zhu Qingyun's body, at this moment, recalling the spring color in the tomb, Xiaoyu's hand seems to be softer than Zhu Qingyun's body!
"Heavenly Official! Hurry up! What do you think! β
The third uncle interrupted my reverie, I hurriedly followed with Xiaoyu, and after the wooden door, there was a stone wall more than three zhang wide in front of me, and there were carved patterns on it, which seemed to be a screen.
After a brief moment of consternation, I quickly regained my composure, such a pattern of stone walls and screens is mostly used by some temples and temples, and now that I think about it, the wooden house should be the residence of the watchman who guards the temple of the city god!
The temple is not big, only the size of two houses, there are several lanterns on both sides of the temple, a majestic statue of the city god sits in the middle, there are three stone platforms and a half-height incense burner in front of it, and nothing else!
Although it is a long time ago, this city god temple is as new as this dungeon, even a few residual incense sticks in the incense burner are still burning incense, rising a faint green smoke, but this city god stone statue somehow has a crack, extending from his shoulders to his waist, it looks brand new!
My eyes fell on the statue of the city god, and I couldn't help but wonder: the huge underground city is intact, even the incense is still burning, how can this stone statue crack?
At this moment, the figure of the third uncle blocked my gaze, he went straight to the half-person-high incense burner, grabbed the ear of the furnace and lifted it hard, only the half-person-high incense burner weighed nearly hundreds of catties, the third uncle couldn't help but sigh: "This thing is too heavy, otherwise it will definitely be a heavy treasure to take it out!" β
I couldn't help but be amused by the third uncle's appearance of being a wealth obsesser, and said: "Third uncle, since ancient times, the Ding furnace has been an important weapon of the country, even if you take it out, you can't do it!" What's more, you have broken the incense of the city god, this kind of god, you just want to repent and don't know who to give incense? β
"Isn't it incense to this city god? How could you not know! β
My casual words once again touched Zhu Qingyun's blind spot of knowledge, and when I heard this, I chuckled and said, "Lord Chenghuang is different from other gods, the so-called Lord Chenghuang is not the land that the people generally believe!" It is a specially built idol that combines the feng shui luck of a city! In other words, each city has its own city god! Or Chenghuang Niangniang! Xiaoyu, if my guess is correct, there should be three other City God Temples in this city! β
Ordinary cities usually only build a city god temple, and on the scale or heavy city, it is necessary to combine the qi of the four directions to repair the city god statue of the four directions!
Xiao Yu should have noticed that we had taken off our guard and had been following me, I turned my head to look, she was still a little scared, and Chu Chu nodded slightly with a pitiful appearance. Zhu Qingyun didn't seem to understand, his grandfather had already walked to the temple gate, turned around and said, "Let's go, we can't be discovered by those soldiers again!" β
A few of us walked out of the City God Temple, looked up, the street in front of us was close to the inner city, there were still many living dead in front of us repeating the form of the previous life, and after sealing the air pocket, let us stride by, whispering softly, these living dead all turned a deaf ear, and soon we finally arrived at the gate of the inner city!
