Volume 2 Illusory Flowers in the World Chapter 47 Twenty-four coffins

I don't know the whole picture of what happened back then, Zhu'an didn't evaluate this incident, and the real historical facts can't be judged by subjectivity, after all, it's not a person of that era, and it's impossible to know what happened. However, the content of the history books is mostly written by the victors, and many times it is not fair, so if you think about it this way, the records on this stone wall are very credible.

However, Zhu'an was willing to combine the two historical records together, and he and Zhimeng first heard from the peddler when they first arrived in Phantom Lake City, mentioning that Phantom Lake City did not have so many rivers before, but was a dry land, where there was a shortage of water, crops could not be grown, and the people were not able to make a living. This is consistent with the large-scale drought in the country of Phantom Flowers, the rain did not fall for three years, and the people were struggling to make a living, and the subsequent immortals chiseled through the mountains and released river water, flooding the earth, forming twenty-four river channels, and the drought and natural disasters that occurred here are consistent. Therefore, he speculated that it was very likely that before the war, there was also a drought in the country of phantom flowers.

However, no matter how much the Phantom Flower Nation left a mark on history at that time, the country has been dead for hundreds of years.

As for Ji Anshi, it can only be said that he was born at the wrong time. It's not that he was born at the wrong time, it's that he was born late, a little later than his brother's birth. It is undeniable that he has a long-term vision and unique insight, and is a rare talent for governing the country. If he is the king of the Phantom Flower Country, presumably the Phantom Flower Country at that time will usher in another ending.

However, history is irreversible.

From these words, Zhu'an can't guess the reason for the failure of Ji Anshi's restoration, but the information provided by these words, combined with the allusion to the water god, can already explain the origin of the Phantom Flower Treasure.

Zhu'an can probably launch the whole process: Ji Anshi transferred the last treasure of the Phantom Flower Country to Phantom Lake City, and there is also a possibility that Phantom Lake City was originally an old site of the Phantom Flower Country. He spent many years building a huge underground palace in the mountain of this mountain, and built a phantom flower palace on top of the underground palace as a cover.

Even a little more daring guess, the water god enshrined in that temple is likely to be Ji Anshi himself.

When Zhu'an saw the statue for the first time, he felt that his kind eyebrows and kind eyes were no different from real people, and his compassion and compassion were the same as Ji Anshi, who was dedicated to the country and the people, and the image gradually overlapped.

The Phantom Flower Palace was originally built to protect the wealth of the Phantom Flower Country, so the identity of the first Phantom Flower Palace Palace Master is also easy to speculate, it is the person left by Ji Anshi to guard the Phantom Flower Treasure, and the Phantom Flower Divine Skill is also very likely to be created by Ji Anshi, in order to protect the treasure.

Although the Phantom Flower Kingdom was destroyed in the end and failed to restore the country, the remaining guardians are obviously still passing on this secret from generation to generation, perhaps at first they have been waiting for Ji Anshi's arrival, and later it has evolved to protect this huge treasure.

When the previous Phantom Flower Guardian chooses the next Guardian, he will pass on the Phantom Flower Divine Skill to her, telling her the reason for the existence of the Phantom Flower Palace and the true identity of the Palace Master of the Phantom Flower Palace, so that the secret of guarding the Phantom Flower Treasure will be passed down from generation to generation.

The Phantom Flower Palace was also established because of this escape from the world, and it has been passed down to this day.

Dream weaving's master Hana obviously hasn't told Dream Weaving about it yet, she even chose to make this secret public before she died, how she thought it was unknown, maybe she was tired of such a heavy secret, and she didn't want Dream Weaving to be bound again, maybe it was just as she said, she wanted everyone to kill each other.

Zhu'an stood up from the ground, he was not busy looking for an exit before because he wanted to understand the cause and effect of the matter, but now that he has figured out everything, he can't delay any longer, he has to quickly find the exit and go out and return to Weaving Dreams.

He had inspected the four walls of this stone room before, and found no problems, it can be seen that there is no way out of the four walls at all, only it may be somewhere between the roof and the ground, but they have fallen from the upper floor, and they can return to the main hall of the Phantom Flower Palace from the roof of the stone room, but there is no way to find them weaving dreams.

The only thing to look for is the ground.

This stone room is not big, the ground is a square floor tiles, he took Changqing from his waist and held the scabbard of the sword and bowed down, hitting the floor tiles with the hilt of the sword, concentrating and calmly distinguishing the knocking sound that came.

In the corner to the right of the stone chamber, there was a floor tile that sounded hollow and must have existed under the stone slab

A space will send back such a sound.

He blew on the fire and carefully examined the stone slab, and found that the gap between it and the surrounding floor tiles was obvious, and he reached out and pulled it up, but it did not move, presumably from below with some hidden buckle, from below it could be easily opened, but from above it was very tightly fastened.

He thought for a moment and whispered, "Offended." ”

Pulling out Changqing and using the tip of his sword to clip it along the gap, his hand exerted, and there was a soft sound of breaking, and he directly pried open the stone slab.

Although he often researched some small mechanisms when he was on the Forgotten Worry Mountain, it was not difficult to unlock such a hidden button, but it was time-consuming.

Then pry the edge of the slate, and directly remove the floor tile, revealing a black hole, and there is a rusty hidden buckle on the edge of the hole that has been cracked.

In order to facilitate the fire folding, without half a minute of hesitation, he jumped directly from the hole, and after a while, he landed silently, buffered the falling situation in a half-squatting posture, and measured the distance from the ground under his feet to the roof in his heart.

In the dark, he landed on one knee and squatted, although his vision was not clear, but he was keenly aware that there was something in front of him, and it was still very close, the strange thing was that he did not perceive a little anger from the other party, if it was a person, he should be able to hear the gasping sound at such a close distance, but no, it was not like a living thing.

He reached over and touched it tentatively, only to feel that he had touched something cold and hard, round and a little uneven.

He withdrew his hand and pulled out the fire fold again, his vision suddenly brightened, and he narrowed his eyes, and when he opened them again, he met the eyes of the two black holes.

“......”

Without thinking about it, he was taken aback.

In front of him was a skeleton of Bai Sensen, the skeleton was very complete and sitting, leaning against the stone wall behind him, a layer of dust had fallen on the whole, and there was an extra finger mark in the dust on the round skull, which he had just touched.

Too offended.

He stood up and bowed, then turned around with a fire fold to inspect the surroundings.

The place where he jumped down was a large stone chamber, in addition to the skeleton of the skeleton that was placed randomly on the outside before, there were twenty-four sarcophagi, twelve of each facing each neatly arranged in the center of the stone chamber.

There was a solemn and solemn atmosphere.

He walked around the sarcophagus and examined it, and although he didn't open the lid of each of them, the two or three sarcophagi he saw contained a complete white skeleton.

The color of the sarcophagus is also different, some are old, the stone has turned white and faded, and some still look relatively bright stone blue, and it is speculated that the use time is only a few decades away.

After looking around, no epitaphs or written records were found, and it is impossible to know who was buried in the sarcophagus. However, since it is in the underground palace under the Phantom Flower Palace, and the ancestral hall tomb cannot be found in the Phantom Flower Palace, it must be that the sarcophagus buried is the palace master of the Phantom Flower Palace of the past dynasties.

At that moment, there was a strange clicking sound in the darkness behind him, like the sound of bones rubbing.

There was silence for a moment after the first sound, and then a moment later the creepy click sounded again and again.

He turned, and something was moving in the darkness.

Zhu'an stood still and didn't move, holding a fire fold and waiting. After waiting for a while, in the range that the firelight could reach, a pair of feet with only Sensen's bones suddenly appeared.

The skeleton sitting on the ground came to life strangely, its eyes glowed with a faint green light, as if two ghost fires were burning, it stiffly got up from the ground, raised its arms straight, and walked in front of him, the sound of the bone joints rubbing made people's scalps tingle.

The scene in front of me is truly terrifying.

Zhu'an looked at it for a while, couldn't help it, and asked softly.

"Excuse me, are you inconvenient in your legs?"

“......”

The air was silent and a little suffocated, and the white skeleton stopped in place, the green light in the eyes of the two skeletons shuddered.

He didn't want to be so rude, he had already clenched the Changqing Sword in his hand and was ready to deal with the trouble, but he waited for a long time with the sword, and the terrifying skeleton was too slow!

It's like moving on the ground step by step, if the person walks like this while he is alive, from the doctor's point of view, the person has a leg and foot disease and is unable to move.

However, if this skeleton really answered, it would be truly terrifying.

Bai Gu stopped in place for a moment, and then began to relentlessly raise his hand bones and walk in front of Zhu'an.

Seeing this, Chai An thoughtfully took two steps forward to close the distance between them.

While waiting patiently, he caught a glimpse of a book on the lid of the sarcophagus closest to him.

He stared curiously, and the white bones finally came in front of him, and a pair of white finger bones were about to choke his neck.

He took a small step back, staggering his hands.

Seeing that the pinch was empty, Bai Gu took another step forward.

Zhu'an took another step back, staggering his hands again.

Although there was no threat, it wouldn't be good if he directly broke up the skeleton of the ancestor of the Phantom Flower Palace.

Just a few steps back unhurriedly, the white skeleton swayed and moved with him with a clatter.

Looking at the white bones that rattled as if they were about to fall apart at any moment, he thought for a moment, and when the ten-knotted phalanges were about to choke his neck again, his figure suddenly swept back with a big step backwards.

Bai Gu got used to the previous frequency, and once again followed his movements and took a big step forward.

Then there was a violent click, and his thigh was broken.

After a few moments, the crackling skull fell apart, and the round skull gurgled on the ground for a moment before stopping, and the green light in the eye hole was extinguished, and a moment later a large swarm of black insects crawled out of the two skull eye holes.

Originally, he was about to crawl towards Zhu'an, but Zhu'an's eyes quickly scattered some white powder around his body, and the insects immediately stopped crawling, and soon dispersed in all directions and disappeared.

It turned out that this kind of parasitic insect in the corpse was attached to the white bone, which made the white bone move, no wonder it was so trembling, it looked like it was about to fall apart.

When he was done with the bones, he walked quickly to the sarcophagus.

The color of this stone blue coffin is still very new, and it is about a few decades old, and the book is sitting alone on the coffin lid.

When he got closer, he saw that the cover of the book was yellowed and wrinkled, but not a single corner of the book was warped, and a thick layer of ash had fallen.

Presumably, the owner of this book used to read it often, but he cherished it very much.

It's been a long time since anyone has flipped it.

He reached for it and gently brushed the dust off it.

There are no names on the yellowed cover, only two small words written in a rather uninhibited font in the lower right corner: New Moon.

I don't know how many years have passed before the yellowed pages have been opened again.

"I, New Moon. The darkest day of the month night. The first day of the new month is designated as the new moon, and the moon on the new day is called the new moon, which is generally invisible. This name was given to me by the master. ”

"I asked her why she called me that. She said, because it was the New Moon when she picked me up. Tsk, that's a random way to name it......"

"Still, I can't say if I hate the name. ”

"I have a master, and there is only one such one. My master is annoying, always nagging, and I have to take care of everything. What, Ah Yue, don't be lazy. Ah Yue, it's time to practice. Ah Yue, don't climb trees. Ah Yue, no leftovers...... It's annoying. ”

I still don't know the answer to this question, and I haven't seen how other masters and apprentices get along. ”

"I've been staying in this stone palace with my master since I was a child, and it's just the two of us, so boring. ”

"I really want to go out and see what the world outside the stone palace is like. ”

"The book says that the outside world is called the rivers and lakes, and there are many martial arts masters, sect families, and thriving. There are swords and swords, happy revenge, legendary stories of heroes and beauties, and horses and rivers and lakes to drink and talk. ”

But the master said that the outside world is full of dangers, and if you are not careful, you will die, so I don't want to run out all the time. ”

"Although the master nags a little, he never lies to me. Is the outside world really that dangerous?"

"But, I really want to see it!"
