Chapter 45: After a desperate situation comes rebirth

[When I opened the coffin and heard the singing, I was shocked to realize that it was the transformation realm]

"Click!"

"Smack!"

At the same time as the sound of the wine jar falling to the ground and shattering sounded, Du Yunlou slapped his head violently, and said after realizing it:

"I remember something wrong!"

Then I saw him come to the black coffin, carefully study the pattern on it with a pair of small eyes, and said slowly:

"I just said that when I looked at the third painting, I felt something was wrong? ”

"We should have discovered that the lines on it had just been carved......!

Du Yunlou's fingers brushed over the lines, and then spread it in front of everyone.

But seeing that his fingers were as clean as ever, there was nothing.

It also shows that this is a newly engraved pattern, if it has really gone through more than a thousand years, how can there be no dust at all.

It is only because the wood of this coffin is black, and the carved lines are also black, that the people who are attracted by the content of the picture do not notice it.

After some scrutiny, everyone found more and more doubts, all of which proved the clues in these six paintings, and at the same time, they were afraid for a while, but also with a trace of happiness.

Wan Zhang finally looked at Hua Xie Yu and asked:

"Childe, what should I do next?"

Hua Jieyu frowned, stared at the black coffin in front of him and said:

"Open the coffin and ask for directions. ”

The others all stared at the huge black coffin in front of them.

The black coffin in front of him was more than one person tall, and even with Nie Yuanba's nine-foot height, it could only barely be level with the coffin.

As for the others, they must raise their hands to reach the lid of the coffin.

Several people looked at Nie Yuanba one after another, without it, he was undoubtedly the most suitable person to open the coffin here without much effort.

Nie Yuanba was not hypocritical, he took a few steps forward, and as soon as the gentian in his palm stood up, the cold light of the spear suddenly pressed against the side of the coffin lid.

Then I saw his arms struggling slightly, and everyone only heard a creaking sound, and the coffin lid was pried open an inch.

After waiting for a while, seeing that there was no movement in the coffin, Nie Yuanba made a force, and with a big gun in his hand, everyone only heard a snort in their ear chakras, and the huge coffin lid was picked out by him.

The reason why it is so easy is that on the one hand, it is Nie Yuanba's strange power, and on the other hand, it is because this coffin is not sealed at all, not only this, almost all the coffins in this space are not nailed, there is such a phenomenon, everyone guesses that it should be inseparable from the so-called Seven Star Returnee Bureau here.

The huge coffin lid spun in the air a few times, then flipped over and fell to the ground with a thud.

Seeing this, several people moved, jumped up on their toes, and jumped on the coffins on both sides.

After everyone stood still, they all looked into it.

The expected scene did not appear, but seeing that it was empty, not to mention the dead body and the way out, there was not even a hair.

"This ......"

For a while, everyone was a little stunned.

Just when several people were stunned, a melody that had been forgotten by everyone sounded again.

“...... Da ......"

“...... Da Da ......"

“...... Da la drip...... Tick ...... Tick ......"

“......”

The melody is still melodious and sad, a song is ecstatic, and those who hear it are sad.

"Ahhh~"

A strange scream came, but it was Du Yunlou who accidentally slipped under his feet, and his body almost fell off, but fortunately, he reacted quickly, took the coffin board on tiptoe, and simply jumped down.

The others also jumped off the coffin, their faces gloomy.

The humming sound was still in the ears, and the difference was that everyone could be sure that this sound was definitely not made by the five people present, so in that case, who could it be?

The answer is clear.

"Don't pretend to be a ghost anymore, come out. ”

Li San looked around and continued to say word by word:

"Ji ...... Palace...... 湦 (shēng). ”

These three words are the name of King Zhou You.

Coincidentally, at the moment when these three words were just spoken, the humming sound that had been lingering in everyone's ears disappeared, as if it had never appeared.

Suddenly, the whole space was calm again.

All everyone could hear was the sound of their own pounding heartbeats.

It's working!

Although it is not certain whether the other party is King Zhou You or not, since the voice has stopped, it means that this person must have something to do with King Zhou You, and it is a great relationship.

But intuitively, this person is very likely to be the resurrected King Zhou You.

But can anyone really be resurrected after a thousand years of death?

All the coffins are empty, so do you mean ......

All the people in the coffin have been resurrected!

The five people and five pairs of eyes glanced around, only to feel that there was a gloomy aura near each coffin, but they still couldn't find any clues about the other party.

Wan Zhang and Du Yunlou pulled out their weapons one after another, making a defensive posture in advance, and Li San, who was attached to Wan Zhang's back, also picked up the Silver Moon Scimitar in one hand.

After a long silence, two barely audible footsteps rang out, followed by a slight creaking.

"Click, click. ”

"Squeak squeak~"

Here it comes!

The five of them suddenly became nervous, and they all pricked up their ears and looked around, looking for the source of the sound.

On top!

Everyone was startled and looked at the top of their heads, but saw that in the deep starry sky, a pitch-black opening quietly appeared, and it was pitch black, as if a big hole had been opened in the starry sky, and the starry sky at the edge of the hole actually fell a trace of dust.

This is?

Mural!

A mural painted on the stone wall overhead!

Only then did everyone realize that the starry sky here was all painted, which looked extremely deep, but in fact it was only three or four feet away from the ground, and if it wasn't for the falling dust that could be used as a reference, almost no one would be able to detect it.

Bursts of clear brilliance are thousands of sparkling gems, one by one, a faint light shrouds the large space, especially the seven symbolizing the Big Dipper.

Although I felt that there was a problem when I first entered here, I was also interrupted by the successive changes, and I didn't have time to pursue it carefully, which is the main reason why Li San and others did not find the clue.

At this moment, I looked at the pale yellow full moon again, and suddenly found that this moon was not real, and after a closer look, this was actually a flawless jade plate, beautiful, just like the real moon.

What a clever layout, what a big stroke!

If it weren't for the sudden appearance of the black hole, I'm afraid everyone would still not be able to understand the mystery of this, and at the same time, several people couldn't help but be shocked while admiring it.

Just as everyone was thinking, a thin figure suddenly jumped down the black hole, accompanied by a strange and obscure voice, as if someone had grabbed their throats and tried to speak.

"Ahem, ahem, are you so sure. ”

The person who came landed lightly, and immediately raised his head, revealing an extremely pale face, at this moment he was staring at Li San with two dead fish eyes open.

Everyone looked at it again, but saw that this person was about forty years old, his eye sockets were deep, and at the same time, there were bursts of dry coughing sounds from his mouth from time to time, like a sick seedling who could enter the soil at any time.

Fortunately, this person has no fangs and sharp teeth, and he is also wearing a short black cloth clothes, and on closer inspection, it is exactly the same as the dead Penglai people in the middle palace.

This appearance diluted a layer of haze in the hearts of Wanzhang and others.

Li San's eyes flashed, and he said slowly:

"I wasn't sure before, but now, I'm a little sure. ”

"Ahem cough cough ~ cough ~"

The dry cough of the sick seedlings does not stop, the more the cough becomes more and more intense, and the cough seems to be eager to cough out the heart, liver, spleen, lungs and kidneys together.

After a long time like this, he seemed to have finally eased up, and did not care about the appearance of everyone as if they were facing a great enemy, but walked towards the periphery with staggering steps, and at the same time a faint voice came.

"If you want to go out, come with me. ”

As soon as the dagger in his hand was raised, he was about to do it immediately.

Du Yunlou's hand also touched his waist, ready to do it at any time.

Li San's guess was to guess, suddenly jumping down such a person, and his identity was unknown, Wan Zhang and the others naturally would not let it do what they wanted. And judging from the current situation, if this sick man is the person behind the scenes, it is clear that it is a martial arts fight, but it has turned into outwitting, and now if he can't outwit, he can only show up.

According to Wanzhang's original meaning, no matter what the other party said, he would be beaten and tied up first, even if he was not the mastermind in this, he had to ask for some useful clues.

Unexpectedly, before he could make a move, he was stopped by Hua Jieyu on the side.

"Don't worry, let's see what he wants. ”

Hua Jieyu's voice was calm, and after speaking, he took Nie Yuanba to follow a few steps first.

Li San's eyes flashed, and he seemed to vaguely understand the intention of Hua Jieyu.

The next few people walked all the way away from the central area, turning around between the many coffins, and they all raised their vigilance.

The sick man walked forward without looking back, and didn't seem to worry about the person behind him at all, and he didn't care whether the other party followed him or not.

Hua Jieyu and Nie Yuanba, who was holding a spear, followed not far away, and Wanzhang carried Li San on his back and Du Yunlou who came up behind him to walk at the end, and the group gradually walked in the opposite direction from when they came.

Every few steps of the sick seedling, he will cough vigorously for a while, and several times he even has some doubts that this guy will kick his legs and finish playing directly halfway through.

Despite this, the footsteps of the sick seedlings are not slow at all, and although the walk is swaying, there is no meaning of the wind and candle at all.

After walking for a while, everyone finally walked out of the coffin group and came to a stone wall.

To the surprise of several people, there was a cave more than one person high on the stone wall, and the edge of the cave was uneven, obviously made by a knife and axe.

I saw that the sick seedling's figure flashed, and he went directly into the cave, and he could vaguely hear a dry cough coming from it.

If you carefully go around this space, Hua Jieyu and the others will find this place sooner or later, but they are all limited by the strange events one after another, and they don't have time to investigate at all, so naturally they won't be able to find this obvious cave.

In response to that sentence, if there is no way in your heart, then no matter how many roads you have, you can't get through. If there is a path in the heart, then even if there is no path, then a new path can be found.

Therefore, no matter at any time, no matter what situation, no matter how difficult it is, we should not despair, despair can only be exchanged for more despair, and only those who have hope and fearlessness can truly get out of the desperate situation.

The experience of Hua Jieyu and several people just illustrates this point.

The cave in front of me was pitch black, and there were many footprints underneath the cave, and it was obvious that people often walked around it.

There are only two situations that can leave so many footprints, one is that all the people here are resurrected, chiseled through the stone wall and walked out, and the other is that the dead Penglai people outside found this place and took the burial goods in the coffin.

If it is the first case, it makes sense, but if it is the second case, it is normal to take away the funeral goods, but are the hundreds of thousands of corpses in the coffin also taken away?

Doubts are doubts, and the road still has to go. Although it is impossible to tell whether the cave is auspicious or evil, there is obviously no other choice at the moment.

Even if there is no sick seedling to lead the way, this road will eventually be taken.

Wanzhang looked at Hua Jieyu and Nie Yuanba, directly carried Li San with one hand and a dagger in the other, and walked in first without saying a word.

He thought very clearly in his heart, no one can compare to Hua Jieyu's life! Even if there is Nie Yuanba's guard, it is still a risk, and only by going in first can the risk be minimized.

Although his words were not spoken, everyone understood what he meant.

It's all in plain sight.

Du Yunlou's eyes flashed as he watched from the side, his expression revealed a bit of admiration and envy, and then he didn't say a word, and followed behind him.

The group entered the dark cave in turn, the cave was not narrow, so the path was not so crowded, and it was different from the jagged stone walls on both sides, so that the ground under me was relatively flat.

Cutting it down, the group walked cautiously for about a pillar of incense, and suddenly their eyes lit up, and they entered a spacious hall.

On a stone wall in the hall, a striking wound is engraved.

"We've come to the third house where the Wounded Gate is located......! Some of them don't make sense. ”

Li San frowned, only hating that he knew too little about Qimen Dunjia, and he couldn't think of the changes even if he wanted to break his head.

The others didn't have any special reaction, although they entered the last of the three murderous gates, they still didn't feel anything, after all, they had experienced so many strange events, and the so-called lice were not afraid of biting, no matter how bad they were, how bad could they be?

It's really sad to be a pedestrian, a relaxed layman.

Didn't care about the incomprehension in Li San's words, everyone looked around, only to see that the hall as a whole is circular, about thirty or forty zhang in a circle, and there is an ever-bright lamp embedded in the stone wall around it, and the white light reflects the situation in the hall vividly.

It is worth mentioning that the stone wall of the week is densely covered with portals of the same size, and there are sixty-four of them.

Behind each portal is a long corridor, in which the white light is faintly visible, and it seems that there is a way out behind each portal.

There is a huge copper furnace in the middle of the hall, which is more than two people high, and it is seven or eight points like the alchemy furnace commonly used by the old alchemy masters, and several people don't know much about the alchemy furnace, but they don't know what such a big furnace is used for here.

Around the Dan furnace, there are layers of jade bottles, neatly stacked in more than a dozen layers, each jade bottle is the size of a palm, most of them are used to hold pills and other objects.

"What does this smell like?"

"Ah~ah~ahh

Du Yunlou's nose seemed to be extremely sensitive to smell, and a faint strange smell penetrated into his nostrils in the air, making him can't help but sneeze several times, and then he said with some uncertainty:

"I smell...... How does this smell like burning a corpse?"

As soon as he finished saying this, before everyone was surprised, an unusually cold gaze instantly swept towards Du Yunlou.

Du Yunlou couldn't help but shiver, only to feel as if he was being targeted by a poisonous snake, and his body was cold.

Subconsciously looked towards the place where the chill came from, but only saw a rickety back, at this moment, that back, has walked to a portal, and then the figure moved, and disappeared into the portal.

At the same time, a suppressed voice came from the portal again.

"If you want to get out, keep your mouth shut. ”

The voice is like in the ear.

Everyone listened to it.

This person must be able to transmit sound into secrets.

This explains why the voices heard by several people before have been lingering in their ears, but they never know who caused the problem.

And the sound transmission into the secret, that is a means that can only be used by contemplating the transformation realm!

Several people glanced at each other, could it be that this sick seedling who seemed to fall down as soon as the wind blew was really a master of the transformation realm? But what did he have to do with those Penglai people?

Since he has such a high level of cultivation, why did he spend so much effort and go around in such a big circle to calculate how many people he has?

I really don't understand the reason for this.

But what is clear is that if he is keeping up, the other party will definitely have other means to achieve his goal.

The thoughts of several people who had all the chances of winning suddenly disappeared, and they neither advanced nor retreated for a while, and then looked at Hua Xie Yu who was contemplative on the side.

Hua Jieyu noticed that everyone was looking at her, and suddenly smiled again, and two rows of silver-white teeth shone in the light.

"It's all here, so naturally I have to follow and have a look. ”

Hua Jieyu has laughed a total of three times since coming here, the first two times are more and more weird the more you look at them, only this time, it is the kind of smile that can make people feel at ease.

After saying a word, ignoring everyone's reactions, Hua Xie Yu walked quickly towards the portal where the sick seedling disappeared, and the rest of the people hurriedly followed his figure and walked into this portal one after another.

In fact, if these people approached the huge alchemy furnace and took a look, they could see the things in it through the transparent jade on it.

In the Dan furnace, an unknown layer of liquid floated impressively.

It's viscous and pitch black.

......

Hua Jieyu and a group of five people walked all the way with the sick seedlings, and there was still a stone ladder for only one person to pass along the way, the stone ladder was high or low, left or right, and encountered many forks in the way, each intersection was a miserable white, as for what was the end of the intersection, as far as the current situation was concerned, everyone did not have the kung fu to explore.

There were several times when he almost lost the trace of the sick seedling at the fork in the road, but fortunately, he could hear the sound of a dry cough, so that he was able to find his exact location.

After walking all the way for about half an hour, several people saw the back of the sick seedling again.

This time, he stopped directly in place, still facing away from the others, and in front of him, there was a portal, and behind the portal was a stone staircase spiraling upward.

On the stone staircase, an inconspicuous Yangwen seal character catches the eye.

Everyone looked at it carefully, and it turned out to be an open word.

I heard the sick seedling say lightly in a dry voice:

"Follow this path all the way, and you will be able to go out. ”

When he finished speaking, the sick man turned into a wind and completely lost his trace, as if he had never appeared.

Everyone couldn't help but look at each other, and they all froze in place for a while.

But I don't know what to do...... How to be good!
