Song Xing's trip to Shennongjia was precisely for the ancient gods hidden behind human history, and seeing that the target might be in front of him, he naturally would not retreat.

And Professor Sun, at this point, if they are separated from the protection of Song Xing, not to mention those terrifying ancient creatures along the way, even if they can return to the surface and face the pursuit of the green tomb, it is difficult to say that they will return to Kyoto alive.

Everyone climbed along the roots of the tree, and the cave under their feet was originally a rock cave in the mountain, with a diameter of more than 100 meters, a steep trend, and almost vertical.

The interior is full of holes, which look like the outer wall of the Colosseum in ancient Rome, and the roots of those prehistoric trees are extremely thick and long, and the thinnest ones are like pillars, so it is no wonder that Professor Sun believes that this prehistoric tree is a legendary building tree.

Countless tree roots stretched out and attached to the stone crevices, and they had long been integrated with the cave wall, and the vine rosewood fungus that was entangled around it was like a net.

Because he didn't know what was in the cave, Song Xing had already summoned the five ghosts to explore the way ahead, and the Nine Deaths Tomb Armor slid along the rock wall, responding in the center, and by the way, crushing the vines that stood in the way along the way.

The vines were swept away, revealing some murals that had been hidden behind the roots of the trees and painted on the cliffs.

It's hard to imagine how the ancients painted on this almost vertical mountain wall, and Song Xing looked up and saw that after thousands of years, the ancient colorful murals were still faintly recognizable.

It can be clearly seen that one of the murals depicts the situation of evil spirits grabbing people and eating people in the thick fog, the upper body of the victim is still flesh and blood, and the lower body has been eaten into white bones, and the mural is colorful and realistic.

Professor Sun chiseled a corner of the murals, and according to the degree of damage to the pigment, it was judged that these murals were formed in the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, and it is speculated that they were the handiwork of King Chu You.

These murals of the Warring States period retain a lot of valuable information, but the content is terrifying and cruel, and it is bloody and makes people feel chills down their spines.

When Song Xing glanced at the mural, he saw a mural with a large box painted on it, the lid of the box was ajar, revealing a skeleton, and the body of the box was surrounded by a Fulong pattern with open mouth and teeth.

There is a human figure next to the box, wearing a python robe and jade belt, and there is a phoenix pattern canopy behind him, as if he is a king, and there is a person standing opposite, wearing a three-eyed mask, and the two seem to be whispering to the big skeleton in the box.

Song Xing suddenly realized that this should be the scene where King Chu You got the golden bones back then, and later he was afraid of the evil ghosts asking for his life, and asked Yu Wu.

In ancient times, it was believed that there were springs underground, that is, underground water distributed layer by layer, and the deepest place was through the nine springs.

The mausoleum of Qin Shi Huang was built very deeply, according to the historical records, it was "through the three springs and placed the coffin", that is to say that the place where the coffin was put has been dug deep into three layers of groundwater.

King Chu You was afraid that the evil ghost would ask for his life, so he ordered the Great Witch to take the golden bones and go to the Ninefold Abyss underground to suppress the evil ghosts, but who knew that the Great Witch would never return.

"It seems that this golden skeleton is really down there, so the countless treasures of King Chu You back then must also be underground." Wang Fatzi said with some joy.

Hu Bayi disagreed: "After so many years, who knows what the situation is below, I advise you not to be too optimistic." ”

While the two were arguing, the five ghosts had already reached the ground first, this seemingly bottomless abyss, only a hundred meters away from the entrance of the cave, and the bottom of the cave was a low-lying place.

In the low-lying area, there is stagnant water seeping from the heights, and in the water lies a statue of beast ears with a huge size, the surface is covered with copper erosion and green moss, and the two ears are in the shape of a tiger.

On the thick tree roots that rise nearby, there are countless statues, swords, and other objects, as well as bronze heavy weapons in the shape of birds and beasts climbing dragons, which seem to be antiquities of the Warring States period.

This made Song Xing a little disappointed, the terrain here looked like a sacrificial pit, although the scale was outrageous, but it was far from what he imagined.

With the Nine Deaths Tomb Armor opening the way, Professor Sun and the others also quickly climbed down, and they were also surprised to see the sacrificial pit below.

Wang Fatzi was even more excited to find some small and valuable objects to stuff into his backpack.

Hu Bayi looked at Professor Sun strangely: "Didn't you say that the bottom of Jianmu is together with the abyss, why is there no road?" ”

Professor Sun was also a little disappointed, ignoring the heavy weapons of the Warring States period under his nose, he raised his eyes and said, "Maybe there are other passages that have been covered, look for them, and find out the terrain here first." ”

Hu Bayi walked a few steps along the pit, and saw several strangely shaped cylindrical objects exposed in the water surface in front of him, like the claws of a giant beast statue, half-sunk underwater, curiously stepped forward to check, but several strange fish that looked like heads, no scales on their bodies, and two pairs of fins and wings were born behind the gills and bit him.

Between the lightning and the fire, Hu Bayi already recognized that these fish were very similar to a certain strange fish in the mountain and sea map on the rubbing in Professor Sun's hand, with two fins like wings, fierce and bloodthirsty.

Then under the surface of the water, as if it was boiling, countless strange fish appeared in an instant, jumped out of the water frantically, and pounced towards Hu Bayi and a few people behind him.

Without waiting for Hu Bayi to dodge, countless bronze blood erosions were already rushing out behind him, piercing through the bodies of all strange fish in a millimeter.

But it was the Nine Deaths Horror Armor on Song Xing's side that was powerful!

In the face of this man-made monster, these prehistoric monsters hidden in the water didn't even have a chance to resist, they were all killed in an instant, and their flesh and blood were sucked dry.

Hu Bayi took a few quick breaths, and after many years of inverted fighting career, he faced countless life and death crises, which made him quickly calm down.

Song Xing still had nine deaths and horrors to hunt those strange fish, and he came to the water's edge and set his eyes on the stone pillar that Hu Bayi had found.

There is a green mottled tree-shaped artifact six or seven meters high between the stone pillars, and on each branch, a large bronze vessel is being held, and the body is cast with a mother and son hole, and the whole body is decorated with a cockroach string pattern.

From his point of view, those rock pillars were indeed the claws of some kind of stone beast raised upward, and the tree-shaped copper lamp six or seven meters high was just something in his palm, which was enough to imagine the huge size of the stone beast.

The side of the giant beast's body is obscured by a rock wall, and when you gaze at it, it is a rectangular stone letter carved with ghost patterns, and it is pressed like a mountain on the stone beast holding a tree-shaped copper lamp.

He suddenly remembered the murals he had seen in the cave before, and among the ancient murals left two thousand years ago, there was a strange beast with a body like a dragon, with a head and no face, holding a lamp and candle in the chaos, and a roulette shaped utensil pressed on its back.

Professor Sun stepped forward and knocked on the stone letter and said: "In ancient times, there was a saying of 'letter', and the monster crawling in the chaos was called 'loading', carrying all things in heaven and earth, running through the ages, and the box on its body was 'letter', and it seemed that the road to the lower level was on its back. ”

The stone wall was very large, and everyone groped along the stone wall, and finally found a depression in a corner, the outside was a raised beast face relief, and the mouth was a frighteningly large hole, directly through the thick letter wall.

Song Xing let the five ghosts walk in front, and then followed them into the cave, Professor Sun and a few people also got in, and the Nine Deaths Horror Ling Jia shrank his body and finally followed.
