Chapter 222, Historical Monument.
Unfolding a quaint map, Chen Xuan followed the map and walked up in this empty and dark underground cave, although it looked gloomy in this underground cave, there was no danger.
Because this underground cave is just a passage for this child and mother heavenly tomb.
There are hundreds of labyrinthine passages that lead to various areas.
If you don't have a map, you're bound to make a mistake, and if you go to a dangerous area that you can't control, then there will be no good fruit to eat.
Chen Xuan quickly shook off his followers and walked towards his destination.
After walking for about half an hour, a bright light finally appeared in front of Chen Xuan.
"Lord, is the Hollow City about to arrive? Finally, it's here, this dark nothingness is boring to death!"
Lewd chicken spoke.
"Yes, it should be the city of hollows, here we are. Chen Xuan said, and walked towards the bright exit.
After stepping out of this exit, Chen Xuan immediately found that he had actually come to a desert-like place.
It's not an underground desert, it's exactly like the one outside.
There is the endless yellow sand, and there is also the terrifying blue sky, and a blazing sun hangs high in the sky, as if to roast everything.
It's just that unlike the ordinary desert, Chen Xuan can clearly see that not far from them, there is a city made of huge stones.
Gray-white boulders, piled up on top of the desert one by one, build a strange city.
This is their destination, the Hollow City.
It is rumored that this gray-white boulder is actually hollow, and the interior of each boulder is inhabited by a huge termite, each of which has the cultivation of the Danshui realm, although the individual is not too strong.
But once it comes together, it's a very terrifying weapon of mass destruction.
However, these Danshui termites are afraid of fire and are relatively easy to expel them, so in this hollow city, it is classified as the most inopportune and dangerous area.
Chen Xuan was naturally prepared for this, he took out a special torch and lit it.
I saw that after the special torch was burned, a white flame bloomed, and this flame burned while emitting thick white smoke.
This kind of white smoke smells very strong acetic acid, but it also plays a role in driving away termites.
After making these preparations, Chen Xuan's body moved, and he walked towards the hollow city unhurriedly.
Because after coming here, he knew that he still had a little more time, and he needed to wait for the dark moonrise before he could start acting.
The mysterious area in this tomb has sunsets and sunrises, day and night, and the desert where the Hollow City is located is no exception.
And Chen Xuan just waited until the moonrise to shine on a strange ancient monument in the hollow city.
When the time comes, just read out the ancient words on the ancient tablet.
Under the ancient monument, a deep cave will appear, and from this cave, Chen Xuan can come to a place called Lotus Lake, which is Chen Xuan's second stop in search of Ming Xinlan.
After walking around the city, Chen Xuan soon found the special stone tablet described by the rain burning heart.
I saw that the stele was about dozens of people high, five or six big men hugged so thick, the stele was tattered, and it looked extremely worn, but you could vaguely see the words on it.
Chen Xuan stroked the inscription and was stunned for a while.
In the drizzle, an acre of pond was clearly displayed in front of Chen Xuan's eyes.
Maybe it's summer, but it seems to be autumn, because in front of Chen Xuan, there is a flat boat, on which there is an old man in a robe who is leisurely fishing on the bow of the boat, and at the stern, there is a girl peeling a lotus canopy with a happy face......
This is a wonderful feeling, at this moment, Chen Xuan did not come to the edge of the beautiful pond, but still touched the inscription in front of him.
And on the inscription, it is a simple painting of an old man fishing.
This old man who is fishing in the slanting wind and drizzle in his robe, he has a soul, and the little girl with an innocent smile also has a soul.
This is not an illusion, but Chen Xuan really felt that the two people in the painting were not paintings, but real people.
Even the lake, the mountains, forests, buildings, and other animals and creatures looming around the lake all have souls and really exist.
This strange feeling made Chen Xuan's heart full of horror.
"Maybe the old man and the child were real people, and they were just sealed in the painting?"
Chen Xuan couldn't help but think like this in his heart, but this kind of thing is simply unheard of, to turn a person into an ink painting, to seal a piece of heaven and earth into a painting?
Such supernatural powers are simply unheard of!
"What is this. It was obviously a monument, but Chen Xuan couldn't help but ask.
"A monument of history, you can see the past in this inscription. ”
Is this so, the picture on the stone tablet is just a flash, but it makes Chen Xuan's heart difficult to calm down for a long time.
"Is history a monument, this history, how long. ”
The inscription has changed, and the text on it has slowly changed from the ancient text to a simplified one.
Recite the inscription, and the road to Lotus Lake will appear.
In Chen Xuan's eyes, the inscription is like a word, a song, Chen Xuan opened his mouth, but it was not a chant, but a praise.
With the soft singing, the whole stone monument rumbled.
After about three breaths, the entire stele flew out of the ground and suspended in mid-air, revealing a hole that could accommodate one person to pass underneath the stele.
The entrance to the cave was extremely deep, and a staircase descending could be faintly seen, disappearing into the darkness.
There is no doubt that this cave is where the Rain Burning Heart Note can lead to the Lotus Lake.
However, Chen Xuan was not in a hurry to walk down the cave, because he suddenly found that the stone tablet suspended in mid-air had changed again.
Call!
As if a whirlwind was blowing, the huge stone tablet suddenly became smaller, and in the blink of an eye, it turned into the size of a palm.
Looking at the stone tablet suspended in front of him, Chen Xuan actually wanted to try to communicate with it.
An aura that made Chen Xuan feel a little kind emanated from it, and the stone tablet moved slightly, and it was suspended in Chen Xuan's palm.
Reaching out to catch the stone stele, Chen Xuan was immediately startled, and almost fell to the ground without a heel.
Because the stele was so heavy that it almost didn't break his hand.
You must know that he is not an ordinary person, but a strong man at the peak of the Danshui realm, with a powerful physique, comparable to a barbarian.
But this palm-sized stone tablet still made him almost not hold it.
And this seems to be the reason why this stele feels kind to itself, so it is deliberately restrained, if the original weight of this stele is pressed on my body, I am afraid that this hand will be gone. Thinking of this, Chen Xuan was very frightened.
