Chapter 315: The Dead Man of Taiyi Gate

"Let's go, let's take a look." Li Di struggled to stand up.

I hurriedly helped her up, and at this moment, out of the corner of my eye, I was surprised to find that the lantern we were carrying was not far away.

When I picked up the lantern, the glass shade inside was not broken, and there was a lot of lamp oil, which made me ecstatic.

A lighter is not a thing that can be used for a long time, not to mention that it is very easy to be burned after a long time.

In contrast, lanterns are more suitable for the environment under them.

lit the lamp, held Li Di in one hand, and slowly walked towards the stone figures with the lantern in the other.

When I got closer, I realized that this was not a stone figure at all, but a fired terracotta figurine, slightly taller than a real person, wearing fine armor with fine armor, and having a mouth, eyes, nose and ears.

Li Di and I walked a distance in the gap between these terracotta figurines, and after a while, we were surprised to find that the faces of these terracotta figurines were all different, thousands of people and thousands of faces, and none of the faces were repeated.

Looking at the endless team of terracotta figurines, I secretly marveled in my heart, looking at their costumes, they are all ancient people, in ancient times when various industries were underdeveloped, how much manpower, financial resources and time do you need to burn so many terracotta figurines on paper?

Li Di suddenly spoke: "Look at this regulation, this should be the burial pit of the princes and nobles." ”

"I think so too, if it weren't for the powerful people, it would be impossible to have the ability to fire so many terracotta figurines. But whose burial goods is this? ”

Li Di shook his head: "Zhongnan Mountain belongs to the Qinling Mountains, and the Qinling Mountains are respected as the dragon veins of Chinese civilization, and there are countless emperors buried in this vein since ancient times, this is really hard to speculate, but ...... However, these terracotta figurines are somewhat similar to the terracotta warriors and horses of the Qin Emperor's Mausoleum, all of which are thousands of people and thousands of faces. ”

I held the lantern high and said according to the terracotta figurines: If this is really the terracotta warriors pit, let's report it to the country, will we gain fame and fortune? ”

Li Di glared at me, and the expression was clearly that you were very brainless: "You better think about it first, how can we get out." ”

This sentence suddenly pulled me back to reality.

Yes, the biggest problem we face now is how to get out, people are stuck here, and any idea is a dream.

The hole we fell down from was seven or eight meters above the ground, and without the aid of ropes and ladders, it was impossible to go up and have to find another way.

I'm sure it's an underground hall, and it can't be that there are no exits, and there may be as many exits as there are on the perimeter walls.

I discussed with Li Diyi and decided to look for it along the surrounding area.

The two of us walked out of the pile of terracotta figurines, and after a few steps to the side, I suddenly stumbled under my feet and tripped over something and fell to the ground.

"Be careful......

Li Di said and pulled me, but before her hand touched my body, she squatted down again, frowned at the place where I fell, and gasped: "There are dead people." ”

I squinted and glanced back.

A corpse was lying at my feet, and he was the one who tripped me up.

I squatted down and looked closely.

Because of the special burial in the cave, the corpse was not completely decomposed, but as if it had been air-dried, the skin was dark and brown, crumpled and crumpled against the bones, but the eyes were rotten and became two black holes.

As soon as the lantern light appeared, the surface of the corpse was covered with a greasy light.

The corpse's hair was long, gray as withered grass, and its clothes had rotted into shreds, but it was still evident that it was an ancient man.

"Huh?"

Li Di suddenly shouted, and pulled something from under the corpse's clothes.

When I saw it, I couldn't help but frown.

"It's a copper coin sword, it seems that this person is a Taoist priest." Li Di spoke quickly, paused for a moment, and said quietly, "He came here and didn't get out alive." ”

I understand what Li Di meant, if I was relatively calm before, when I saw this copper coin sword, I thought I was starting to panic.

Although I don't know the purpose of this Taoist priest's here, his death here means that there is no exit here.

"Changsheng, look, there are words on it." Li Di handed me the bronze coin sword.

The copper coin sword, also known as the money sword, is a Taoist magic weapon made of one hundred and eight five emperor coins strung into a sword, and then blessed by the Tao.

I stretched out my hand to take it, and the sword was heavy, and it was so old that the copper coin was covered with green rust.

The hilt of the sword has a red tassel tail, but the color has fallen to white, in the middle of the red tassel, there is a piece of jade pendant the size of a bottle cap, which is engraved with two small characters in seal font "Taiyi." ”

"This is someone from Taiyimen?" I exclaimed.

Li Di was much calmer, she nodded, and wondered, "How could someone from Taiyi Sect die here?" Look, there's a corpse over there. ”

Her eyes were sharp, and as she spoke, her fingers pointed forward again.

We ran over to stare at the corpse again, and we were also sure that it was also from Taiyimen.

Then, we found seven or eight more of the same corpses.

Looking at these corpses, I became suspicious.

Let's call it a tomb.

This tomb is under the Taiyi Gate, Li Di and I can find this place by mistake, the Taiyi Gate has been operating here for many years, they should know this tomb very well.

With so many of them coming in at the same time, they must have been prepared in advance, and there would definitely be a way back, but why did they all die here?

They couldn't have been trapped to death because they couldn't find the exit.

There must be something deadly in this.

When I thought about it, I was shocked and couldn't help but look around.

As far as the eye can see, there are terracotta figurines.

The dense terracotta figurines and pestles looking at us in the dark are really a little creepy.

However, this is only a psychological oppression of visual completion, and it is not really dangerous.

Because, there is no ghost qi here, not even a trace of yin qi.

So, how did these people from Taiyimen die?

I wanted to break my head, but I didn't come up with an ugly person, look at Li Di, she also scratched her ears and cheeks.

If you can't figure it out, then don't think about it.

I stood up and was about to call Li Di to continue, but suddenly I found that there was a wooden stick stuck in the ground where I was squatting just now.

What caught my eye even more was that there was a piece of cloth on the ground next to the stick.

I couldn't help but crouch down again.

The cloth is triangular and thin, with one end rolled around a wooden stick, and curled runes can be faintly seen.

"This is the Dao Banner." I whispered to Li Di.

Her face was solemn: "They used to practice or set up formations here, and the poles of this flag were broken, which is probably the reason for them." ”

"It should be like this, it seems that there is something powerful here, and the people of Taiyimen have paid such a heavy price because of this."

"But it looks so clean here, what kind of existence makes the flagpole broken?" Li Di muttered to himself.

I was silent for a moment: "What is often invisible is the most terrible thing." ”
