Chapter Seventy-Two: The Nine Towers and the Five Saints
The huge iron gate is getting closer and closer, and the countless copper nails on the iron gate look extremely golden in the light. On the top of the iron gate, two words are written in ancient seals: "Turning into a star!" Two lines of golden characters on both sides of the iron gate shine brightly: the clay pot water boils to invite cyclamen, and the tea bowl is fragrant to punish the demons.
The two-line big characters dragon and phoenix dance, which seem to be faintly fluttering and immortal, out of the ordinary.
Di Yun and Cangwu stopped in front of the iron gate, carefully looked at the two lines of big characters in front of the door, and were speechless for a long time.
Cangwu opened his mouth and said: "This is obviously a tea room, why is the word Huaxing written on it?"
Di Yun shook his head and said, "I don't know, maybe it's the name of the tea room." Let's get in quickly. ”
Cang Wu looked at it carefully and said, "Go in?"
Di Yun took out the parchment map he was holding from his bosom, looked at it again and again, walked to the door, and slapped the copper nails on the door one by one.
Just when Di Yun was looking for the mechanism, a loud laugh came from behind him, and Cang Wu turned around suddenly, and found that Qinglong and the other four people in the distance were flying towards this side rapidly.
Cang Wu hurriedly said, "Brother Yun, they are chasing after you." ”
Di Yun didn't speak, but the speed of slapping the copper nail suddenly increased, and his eyes became sharper.
It was the White Tiger host who made this laugh, and after the laughter, the White Tiger's speed gradually increased, and he shouted: "You two boys don't have to work hard, just die." ”
Seeing that Di Yun didn't react, Cang Wu turned around and blocked behind Di Yun, took out the astrolabe with his right hand, and slowly put it on his chest.
Qinglong and the other four showed their magic weapons in the air and attacked Cangwu.
Just when Cangwu's strength was released and he was about to meet the enemy, a huge sound came from the iron door behind him.
Di Yun said in surprise: "Cangwu, the door is open!
As soon as the words fell, Di Yun pulled Cangwu and instantly got into it through the crack in the door that had just been opened.
Qinglong and the other four people in the back saw that the gate was actually opened by Di Yun, and they couldn't help but be very anxious, and the four of them hurriedly threw the magic weapon into the air and hit Di Yun and the two behind their backs.
Di Yun felt the powerful force coming from behind, and hurriedly pulled Cang Wu in front of him, blocking the attack of Qinglong and the others with his back. The strength of the four hit Di Yun's back hard, a mouthful of blood spurted out, Di Yun and the two fell to the ground behind the door, and the door of the tea room slowly closed......
This series of things is a long story, but in fact, it is just between the lightning and flint, and in the blink of an eye, the kung fu gate will go from open to closed, separating the Qinglong host and others from Di Yun, becoming two worlds.
Xuanwu stomped his foot, and his palm slapped the iron door, and an earthy yellow force smashed on the iron door. Although Xuanwu shot out angrily, the strength contained in it was extraordinary, but this iron gate seemed to have taken root, and it did not move.
The magic weapons in the hands of the white tiger and the vermilion bird shone brightly, and the strength of the two hit the iron door, but it was also in vain.
The green dragon next to him was about to speak, only to hear the sound of a "bell" inside the iron door, which sounded like the sound of the door latch locking.
Shaking his head, Qinglong put his hand on the iron door and groped carefully. Only then did he speak: "It's useless, this iron door is made of special material, and the mechanism has been locked from the inside by them." We can't get in. Luckily, I just looked closely, and this building is not connected to the surrounding area, so it should be from the reading power. They are inside, like frogs at the bottom of a well, never to come out. Let's trap both of them in here. ”
Xuanwu smiled: "Yes, we have time. I'm going to see how long these two guys can stay inside. ”
The idea has been decided, and the four of them will naturally not waste their efforts on this gate. This square is divided into two entrances. After coming down from the front square, there is a small courtyard. On the left side of the courtyard is the tea room where Di Yun and the others entered, while on the right is not a symmetrical building, but a high platform dozens of feet high.
The four of them looked at each other and flew up to the high platform. The top of the platform was empty, except for a cross-shaped table in the middle of the depression.
When they got closer, they saw that the cross-shaped table was carved with various intricate patterns, which looked simple and solemn. In the middle of the table, there was a circular empty space, and just as the white tiger was about to reach out to touch it, the green dragon exclaimed in surprise next to him.
Everyone looked up and saw the green dragon standing next to a pillar, and the top of the pillar was engraved with three words of dragon flying and phoenix dancing: Star Control Platform!
When Xuanwu saw these three words, his face was overjoyed and said, "Could it be that this is the legendary star control platform that can control the entire ancient tomb......?"
Qinglong's hands trembled, and after a while, he laughed wildly and said, "Three brothers, we were captured by that old miscellaneous hair of the astrologer from the heavenly realm to this ghost place, 100,000 years, a full 100,000 years. We haven't been able to go out for so long, and today we can finally fulfill our long-cherished wish. It's a pity, it's a pity that there are only four of us left in the Nine Towers and Five Saints back then. The Qilin host, it would be nice if he was here now. ”
Suzaku pursed his lips and said disdainfully: "Why do you still mention that person, he will treat us like that." ”
Qinglong smiled, "It's not that I miss the Qilin. It's just that I feel sorry for our Nine Towers and Five Saints, but now we have fallen into this field. I think how carefree we were when we were in the heavenly realm, and now that so many years have passed, where will there be any resentment in my heart. It's just that today we found this star-controlled platform, and I'm happy. ”
This is, Bai Huqi, who has not spoken, said: "Star Control Platform, what is this thing, is it useful?"
Qinglong calmed down, no longer thinking about other things, and said to Baihu with a smile: "This star control platform is said to be the place where astrological masters enlightened. There is a cross constellation in it, which is the hub of the entire star control bead, and here you can control the entire secret channel of the star control bead. As long as we control this place, are we afraid that those two stinky boys will run to the sky? haha......"
Suzaku laughed and said, "Yes, it's just, how can we this star-controlling platform?"
Qinglong and Xuanwu glanced at each other, and suddenly, Qinglong raised his hand and slapped it on the pillar, and the green light in his hand was great, reflecting a trace of blue light on his entire face.
In an instant, his entire arm was covered with a layer of cyan, which gradually spread to the pillar. Just when the blue light enveloped the entire pillar inside, the pillar actually trembled, and the red paint on the surface of the pillar fell.
As the red paint peeled off, a blood-red ball of light appeared in the middle of the column. The ball of light slowly rotated, shooting out a red light that hit the cross table in the middle of the high platform.
As soon as the red light hit the cross table, a simple pattern appeared in the circular depression on the table. The pattern seemed to come to life, radiating a cyan glow. The red and cyan colors complement each other, and the whole high platform looks extremely beautiful.
Just when Qinglong and the others were surprised and inexplicable, the round concave blue light gradually dimmed after radiating for a while, and gradually became silent.
When the four of them saw this scene, they couldn't help but be stunned and froze in place.
Halfway through, Xuanwu stammered, "This... Why is that?"
Qinglong's face also became extremely ugly, and he slowly walked to the table, put his hand on the top of the cross table, and stroked it little by little.
It took him a long time before he spoke, "I understand why. This mechanism lacks a magic weapon that can be urged. Look at this depression, isn't it familiar?"
Xuanwu and the other three came to the table and observed carefully, and the white tiger spoke: "When the old dragon said this, it's true. This thing is a bit like a unicorn, oh no, a bit like the magic weapon in the hand of that kid just now - Astrolabe!"
Xuanwu and Suzaku suddenly realized at this time, and hurriedly nodded: "Yes, the pattern, size, and thickness on this are the same as those of the astrolabe, right?"
The Qinglong host said, "Yes! This mechanism needs to be driven by the astrolabe. I didn't expect it, I didn't expect it, after going around in a circle, we still have to fall into the hands of the unicorn. Qilin Holy Lord, Qilin Holy Lord, as the head of the Nine Towers and Five Saints, you are indeed scheming, my old dragon is not as good as you!"
Suzaku slapped his palm on the table and said angrily, "Then what should we do now?"
Xuanwu sneered: "What can I do? What else can I do? Grab that kid and snatch the astrolabe." ”
Qinglong took a deep look at the building opposite the high platform, and said in a deep voice: "Our top priority now is to find a way to get the astrolabe." In this way, the entire tomb can be controlled and a way to get out. But Di Yun's two boys were so badly injured that they hid in that room, and I was afraid that they would not dare to come out for a while. We can take advantage of this time to scavenge all the treasures we can get our hands on. ”
Xuanwu nodded and said, "Yes, we can't wait for those two stinky boys here." If they die of old age inside, wouldn't we be miserable? ”
Qinglong and the other three all nodded and flew towards the end of the square.
As soon as Di Yun and Cangwu rushed into the gate, Di Yun was hit on the back by the strength of Qinglong and the others behind him, and he spat blood and fell to the ground.
Cang Wu hurriedly got up, pulled up Di Yun, who had fallen on top of him, and said hurriedly: "Brother Yun, how are you?"
Di Yun shook his head, fortunately he was wearing a golden silk robe, Qinglong and the others were far away, and they made a hasty move, because their injuries were not very serious.
With Cangwu's support, Di Yun stood up, sat on the chair next to him, closed his eyes and breathed.
Cang Wu looked at Di Yun with concern, and saw that his breathing gradually stabilized, so he stood up and observed the layout in the tea room.
From the outside, the construction area of the tea room is not small, but when I entered the inside, I found that the actual area inside was actually half smaller than the outside, and the small half of the area was because the walls of the tea room were too thick. Cangwu was secretly frightened, no wonder Qinglong and the others couldn't shake this building with all their might, it turned out that this wall was not only made of special material, but also so thick. He thought about it again, is it necessary to make it so sturdy just a tea room?
As soon as he thought of this, Di Yun behind him let out a long sigh and opened his eyes......
