Chapter Seventy-One: The Land of the Dead
And above the bronze tripod sat a man, the man had a handsome face, sword eyebrows and starry eyes, a white robe casually on his shoulders, and his body was straight, giving people a feeling of looking up to the mountains.
"What's the matter with this bead?"
I asked the old witch, who hesitated for a moment and pointed to the bead.
"This bead is placed according to the Qimen Dunjia technique, and he can manipulate the entire tomb."
Hearing this, I also understand, why can we fall into the illusion?
"What about this man?"
I looked at the man who seemed to have fallen asleep, and as expected, he was just a corpse.
"He's the oldest person we've ever had here, but he only wakes up once in a long time."
The old witch said, looking at me cautiously, lest I have done something terrible in the past.
I glanced at the old witch, and then at the immortal beads in the bronze tripod, and suddenly a strong desire for possession suddenly arose in my heart, this kind of thing was too attractive to me, and I couldn't bear to refuse.
I took a few deep breaths and tried to calm myself, I had to be sensible, now was not the time to be greedy.
It wasn't long before we were back in the tomb again, and at the moment the black dragons were still haunted by the illusion!
The old witch nodded to me and let me take my gray hand and walk towards the tentacles of the human face.
The tentacles were very afraid to see the hair in my hands.
I took advantage of this opportunity to slam the gray hair in my hand at the tentacle violently, and the tentacle was in pain, and immediately retracted, and at the same time there was a hissing cry.
The Black Dragon and the others also came back to their senses in an instant, staring blankly at the scene in front of them, unable to come back to their senses for a while.
"Just now, did you just enter the illusion?"
Xu Jinxiu looked at her hands and looked at me with some incredulity.
"Well, you almost died here." I said lightly.
"Is what we just saw real?" The black dragon swallowed and asked.
"Fake."
I shook my head, I didn't want to explain much about this matter, seeing that they were out of danger, and there was no need to stay here, I pulled Xu Jinxiu and was about to leave.
"Wait, are we going to go?"
The black dragon looked at the coffin, there must be something of value in it.
The old witch was nervous at this time.
"Let's go, there's something of value in there, but we can't move it right now."
Hearing my words, everyone looked at me with puzzled expressions, and I didn't bother to explain, so I walked over directly with Xu Jinxiu and the old witch in my arms.
"Let's go, lead the way and get us out."
The old witch nodded, motioning for us to follow her.
The old witch led us around this burial chamber to another tomb, which was surrounded by candles and runes.
The flame on the top of the candle jumps, and an oil lamp hangs at intervals.
The old witch pushed open one of the doors, and we followed her inside.
This tomb is not too spacious, but the layout is very exquisite, and all the arrangements are built along the mountain.
On the top floor of the tomb is a huge ink painting of a giant dragon painted lifelike.
Next to the ink painting, there are three women, dressed in white, standing motionless, like sculptures.
On the left and right sides of the tomb, there are eight statues, all of which have facial features, although they are not clear in appearance, but they give people a sense of majesty.
"That's the Keeper." The old witch pointed to the statues and said.
I looked in the direction the old witch pointed, and the eight statues were all made of jade, and there seemed to be some secret hidden in the jade statues.
I took a closer look, but there was nothing out of the ordinary, so I retreated.
"Let's leave quickly, and don't delay too long, lest there be any complications."
I spoke to the crowd, and they all nodded in agreement, after all, no one wanted to be attacked by ghosts again.
We continued on our way, and as we walked I stopped because I noticed something was wrong.
In front of us, there were nine stone pillars, on which was a skeleton tied, apparently freshly tied.
"What is this?"
When the old witch heard my words, she shook her head helplessly.
"Grave robbers like you."
A group of six of us walked up to the stone pillar and studied it carefully.
"It's ...... Nine Palace Bagua Array. ”
Xu Jinxiu looked at the stone pillar in front of him and said.
"This is the rumored Nine Palace Bagua Array that can suppress thousands of undead?" The black dragon's eyes widened.
I also glanced at Xu Jinxiu in surprise, this girl actually knew the Nine Palaces Bagua Array.
It is rumored that the founder of the Nine Palaces Bagua Array is the Tang Dynasty's Heavenly Master Li Chunfeng, who is said to be proficient in Qimen Dunjia and Yin and Yang Bagua Method, and is a famous astronomer and historian in the Tang Dynasty.
And the patterns on these nine stone pillars are all about sacrifices!
I carefully observed the stone pillars in front of me, and sure enough, they were exactly the same as the rumors, just combined into a formation, and the nine stone pillars were just connected together, and the number of rank was nine, nine and even zun, which could suppress all evil!
Thinking of this, I couldn't help but frown.
If this is the Nine Palaces Bagua Array, then these people are definitely not simple.
I glanced at the old witch, who coughed lightly and pushed open a stone door in front of her.
Seeing the sun again, several of us were a little excited.
"By the way, are our three buddies also with you?"
This trip is to find Liu Bao and the three of them, and now that they have arrived in the interior of Changsheng Village, the old witch in front of them must know their whereabouts.
But when the old witch heard my words, she shook her head, "Those three people are indeed in our Immortal Village, but he was brought in by the ghost baby, and I can't help you rescue them. ”
"Ghost baby?"
Hearing the old witch's words, I became even more puzzled, is this ghost baby more terrifying than the gray fairy?
The black dragon was also depressed on the side, where is this ghost baby sacred, and there is no way to even do it to the people in Changsheng Village?
"That ghost baby has existed in this village since I can remember, if you want to save people, then hurry up, it's not the first time that ghost baby eats people."
The old witch sighed as she spoke, looking a little sad, and pointed to a hill with her cane!
"Do you see that hill, there is a ruined temple behind the hill, that is where the ghost baby stays, and the three people you are looking for are there."
The old witch spoke slowly, her eyes full of sorrow.
After listening to the old witch's words, we all turned our eyes to the hill.
The hill was only a few hundred meters away, but there was a gloomy aura on the top of his mountain, and the surrounding mountains were just blocking the sunlight, and the whole hill was in shadow.
That place is the easiest place to breed some shady things.
Without further ado, the old witch was gone, and our group walked towards the hill.
"Chen Ping, how sure are you this time?"
Xu Jinxiu looked at me worriedly, originally thought that Liu Bao and the three of them were brought in by the people in Changsheng Village, but they didn't expect that there would be such an existence in this existence.
At that time, the ginseng essence didn't make it clear, and we wasted so much time in vain.
"Don't worry, as long as that ghost baby is not something that has lived for a thousand years, I should be able to deal with it."
I smiled and patted my chest, and assured Xu Jinxiu.
"Hello, settle the matter here as soon as possible, and we can leave."
Xu Jinxiu also smiled, urging me.
A few of us quickened up, and it wasn't long before we came to the vicinity of the hill to take another look at the ruined temple.
Suddenly, I realized that something was wrong, the mountain bags on both sides of the broken temple root just formed a place of superb scenery, and the ghosts living in it were absolutely powerful.
"I didn't expect this ghost thing to set up a formation for itself!"
After looking at it, I saw the clue inside.
In that ruined temple, there is a formation of yin and evil, and now the formation is very weak during the day, if you wait until night, if you step into it, you will immediately become a dead corpse.
"What formation?"
The black dragon looked at me with a puzzled expression, he also understood something, but he didn't see anything after watching it for a long time.
"When I go in later, I will go in alone, and a few of you will stand in the four directions of the broken temple, each holding a gossip mirror in his hand, and if I don't come out after half an hour, you will use the gossip mirror to aim at the broken temple."
I instructed.
Then I walked alone towards the ruined temple, and the rest of the people stood in the four directions as I commanded.
"Hmph, it's just a little trick, what can I do."
I snorted coldly and walked directly into the formation.
For a moment, I felt like I was stuck in a quagmire, and I only felt a huge pressure pressing down on me.
At the same time, the skin on the body became hot and painful, like a needle prick.
"Hahahaha!"
Suddenly, a sinister male voice sounded, and I shuddered violently.
I looked up at the scene in front of me, my pupils contracted violently, and a pair of eyeballs almost popped out of my sockets!
There was a human in front of me, but a demon covered in green hair.
A face was pale and bloodless, with bulging eyes, sharp teeth, and thick mucus flowing from the mouth.
"What? Scared? ”
The monster said gloomily, with a hideous expression.
"Hehe, I underestimated you."
I sneered, not intimidated by the other party's threat, but rather a little calm.
"To tell you the truth, the souls of those three people don't taste good at all!"
The monster in front of me looked at me with a playful expression, and there was a strange red glow in its eyes.
"If you dare to touch a single hair of their hair, I will definitely let you go to the eighteenth layer of hell."
I squinted at the monster in front of me.
