Chapter 244: Into the Ancient City
Xiao Yueming stared at the entire tower, but did not find any brick marks and gaps, it seems that except for the top of the tower, the entire tower is a whole structure, which makes Xiao Yueming wonder:
"The entire tower body can't find any traces of stone brick construction, could it be that the entire tower body is carved and built with a whole stone?"
"If that's the case, then it's amazing, this whole stone weighs tens of thousands of pounds, who has the power to do this. ”
Looking forward slowly, in the center of this ancient tower, there is a bilateral wooden door, fingers lightly scratched the wooden door, the soil stained on it is wiped off, the touch of this wooden door is very delicate, and this ancient tower is buried deep in the ground, or has been standing here no one found, in such a humid and rainy dense forest, this wooden door not only does not have any traces of decay, but even feels extremely dry, such a magical wood, must not be simple, Xiao Yueming has never seen it.
Stretched out his right hand and put it on the wooden door, Xiao Yueming gently stepped forward, but the wooden door did not move, seeing this, Xiao Yueming did not try, after all, the many handprints on the wooden door already represent that someone has tried, even first-class masters such as Qianchuang and Gray Cloud have been turned away, Xiao Yueming is also sure that it is impossible for him to find more clues in a short time, besides, if his cultivation is still controlled by the Hundred Days Broken Heart Pill Seal, his strength is not one in ten, and it is not wise to act rashly, lest he trigger any mechanism.
Xiao Yueming retreated to Su Lan's side under the gaze of everyone, and seeing that Xiao Yueming didn't find any clues, the warriors withdrew their gaze, and then meditated to recuperate their injuries.
I saw that the four saints of Gushan also stepped forward to investigate, and then returned in vain.
Huang Fu Lou's fingers rubbed his chin, and he said softly:
"More than ten years ago, this ancient city was opened once, according to the people who came back, they did not see lightning and thunder, let alone experienced any white mist vines, even people who have not yet reached the third-rate realm, they have successfully walked to the front of the ancient city. ”
The description of the ancient tower is no different from the notes left by those who have entered the ancient city. ”
"This ancient tower is just an entrance, and only by entering from this entrance can you reach the real Qionghai Ancient City. ”
As soon as he heard this, Feihu couldn't help but rub his hands:
"Okay, it is said that there are a lot of good treasures here, not to mention more, let grandpa take seven or eight half-step peerless cheats, it's enough!"
Bai Lian secretly rolled her eyes on the side:
"Fourth, aren't you confused again, and you are still a half-step peerless cheats, the last time the ancient city was opened, only a first-class cheats were born, and the first wave of blood flowed in the competition, although there are unknown changes in the ancient city this time, we can get a top exercise, and we will benefit a lot. ”
Feihu also knows that he is just a daydream, every half-step peerless cheats, must be created by a half-step peerless master, in order to create such martial arts treasures, each cheats, contains the writer's perception of the warrior, the most important thing is that the half-step peerless characters, has sensed the avenue in the underworld, this is the half-step peerless cheats, and even the treasure of the peerless cheats.
In front of the ancient pagoda gate, Shangguan Rite is not dead, he firmly believes that if anyone present can successfully push open the wooden door, then this person must only be himself, his eyes swept over the strange symbols carved on the tower, some of these symbols are semicircular, and some are some irregular strokes, although it seems to be chaotic and unorganized, there is no clue to the law, but it contains an indescribable rhythm, which makes Shangguan Etiquette feel that this symbol must be extraordinary, and at the same time, he is looking forward to the treasures in the ancient city.
Qiankun and Gray Cloud also walked slowly around the ancient tower, only to see that the expressions of the two were a little solemn, and after watching for a while, I saw Gray Cloud say in a deep voice:
"Brother, can you notice any difference?"
Qianchuang shook his head slowly, and really didn't find anything:
"This ancient city seems to have been built as one, and the inscription on this tower, I have seen similar symbols in an ancient book, but it is different, it seems to be an ancient script that has been lost. ”
Gray Cloud was silent, this ancient tower looked like a product of a long time, and thousands of years ago, the writing at that time was not the same as it is now, each tribe has its own language and writing, and the symbol on this tower, or the script of a certain tribe.
"This may be an extinct, unknown tribal script, or maybe. ”
Qianchuang also agreed with what Gray Cloud said, as for why there are martial arts secrets in this ancient city, Qianchuang guessed that later generations discovered this place and regarded this ancient city as the foundation of the sect's secret room, so as to collect some important classics, and this sect was also like a tribe that had long disappeared, wiped out in the long river of history, so that it finally became an opportunity for the world.
This situation is not uncommon in the rivers and lakes, the foundation of some small sects, built on some sites, after the screening of predecessors, these places are generally beautiful, the location is excellent.
In the eyes of everyone, although everyone present did not recognize the symbols on the tower, they did not feel how mysterious this ancient city was, after all, there were traces of ancient tribes found on the rivers and lakes from time to time, and those words were not known at all.
And this ancient city of Qionghai, in the eyes of everyone, is at best a lost sect, a place to collect classics, those white mist forests, mysterious and changeable weather, although everyone has lingering feelings about this ancient city, but that's all, after all, this place has been born once, and the highest level of martial arts found is only a top-grade cheats, and it is said that the quality of the top-grade cheats can only be counted as the bottom of the top-grade rank.
Even if something changes have happened in this ancient city, it is enough to be able to produce a top martial arts cheatbook, it is enough to spread throughout the martial arts, and the many martial artists present, there are many people, it is not the first time to look for these sect ruins, most of the scattered cultivation in the rivers and lakes, there is no sect practice to practice, so they can only search for those discovered ruins on the rivers and lakes, in order to obtain the exercises.
Although the ancient city is mysterious, almost everyone thinks that the value of this place is limited, and the people who guess that this ancient city contains different opportunities are only Qianchuang, Shangguan Rites, and Xiao Yueming and the four saints of Gushan.
And the person who really holds some of the secrets of the ancient city of Qionghai is still one step ahead of everyone at this time.
The surrounding darkness shrouded itself in a group, between breaths, the smell of damp earth in the nasal cavity, I saw Wu Xiong's expression nervously observing the surroundings, holding a torch in his hand, the dim fire light illuminated the surroundings, only to see that this was a long line of warrior passages, inlaid with gray stone bricks on both sides, and there was an endless darkness hidden in front of him.
After getting off the building, after ascending to a low level of dozens of feet, this passage appeared that was only the width of two people side by side.
Gu Hong and Master Unintentional walked slowly behind Wu Xiong, only to see Gu Hong take out the mutilated topographic map, and quietly observe it with the help of the faint firelight.
Deliberately leaning sideways, avoiding the unintentional mage's gaze, Gu Hong carefully put away the topographic map after confirming that it was correct, and said in a deep voice:
"There's a fork in the road, so let's go left and go straight. ”
Gu Hong's hoarse voice echoed in the long passage, and Wu Xiong nodded immediately, he only wanted to get out of this oppressive aisle quickly.
The Nine Tin Zen Staff of the Unintentional Mage, under the light of the torch, flashed with dazzling golden light, and the golden light was reflected on his snow-white eyebrows, which looked extremely solemn.
Sure enough, after walking for a while, a fork in the road appeared in front of me, which seemed to be branching off from the main road, but its appearance was the same as the main road.
Wu Xiong's firelight illuminated the road ahead, and it was still dark in front of him, and he didn't know what would await him if he chose the wrong path and kept walking ahead.
Secretly swallowing a mouthful of saliva, Wu Xiong didn't want to risk his own life as a try, and saw him turn around and walk into the passage on the left.
As he went farther and farther, Wu Xiong also replaced several torches, these torches had already been prepared, there was no fire lighting, with the strength of the three people's cultivation, although he could barely see the surrounding environment, but with the torches, he could indeed reduce a lot of trouble.
According to the topographic map, this underground passage is not complicated, only a few forks need to pay attention to, the important thing is the specific location of this passage, the vast dense forest, want to accurately find the entrance of this tunnel, without the help of the topographic map, it is simply a dream.
As we went deeper and deeper, the passage, which was originally narrow and only for two people to walk side by side, gradually became wider, until finally, even if the three of them walked side by side, there was still a big gap, and I didn't feel crowded at all.
The torch light was limited, and only a short distance could be seen, but as we went deeper, the flat stone slabs on both sides of the stone path suddenly disappeared, replaced by uneven natural stone walls.
The three of them walked through this natural stone cave, and the surrounding space suddenly became wider, Wu Xiong looked around with the light of a torch, only to see that this was a huge cave, and saw that he slowly looked up, and the scene in front of him shocked Wu Xiong in place.
I saw that the top of this grotto with stone bricks built out of thin air many mechanisms, these mechanisms are like a huge bow and crossbow, side by side together, these bows and crossbows are enough to have hundreds, each giant bow and crossbow is full of dense swords, they are connected to each other by an iron chain, Wu Xiong's eyes looked down the iron chain, only to see that the iron chain was finally tied to a wooden waterwheel, and below the waterwheel, is a flowing underground river.
