Chapter 150: The Tomb Guarding Fox Demon
Eighty miles west of Luping Town was originally a grassland, the first few herdsmen who herded sheep found that a piece of the grassland suddenly collapsed, and several shepherds fell into the big hole that suddenly appeared, in order to rescue a few shepherds who fell into the cave, several herdsmen went into the cave along the rope together, leaving only one person to guard outside.
Who knew that the herdsmen screamed not long after entering the cave, and the herdsmen who stayed outside hurriedly shouted into the cave, but only heard strange echoes. The herdsmen were afraid to enter the cave again, so they hurried back to report to the military attache guarding the border.
After receiving the herdsmen's report, the military attache guarding the border also paid more attention, not only sending people to guard outside the entrance of the cave to prevent outsiders from approaching, but also reporting the matter to the authorities, hoping to send cultivators to investigate. Because the closest to the cave is Murong Feng's Luping Town. The guard of Wuning Pass directly ordered Murong Feng to take a few cultivators into the cave to investigate.
Murong Feng, who received the order, naturally did not dare to delay, in addition to Chu Xiaoxiao and Zhao Xinyi, Murong Feng also brought two local cultivators with him. Outside the cave, after Murong Feng and the military general in charge of guarding exchanged token documents, he led a few people into the cave.
This cave may not seem large, but it can only accommodate two people at the same time to enter along the rope. The big black hole looked bottomless, Murong Feng took out a stone and threw it, and it took a long time to hear the echo.
In such a deep cave, those herdsmen were really bold enough to dare to enter it directly. Murong Feng raised his hand and waved, and the two local cultivators entered the cave one after another
Soon after the two cultivators entered the cave, they signaled to Murong Feng at the entrance of the cave. Murong Feng, who received the signal, hurriedly took Chu Xiaoxiao down the cave, leaving only Zhao Xinyi to answer outside.
After entering the bottom of the cave, Murong Feng found that there was another mystery in this big cave. At the bottom of the cave a man-made stone path appeared. The stone path stretched forward and disappeared into the dark cave
Murong Feng hurriedly used the Spirit Fox Eye to investigate, and Murong Feng found that there was nothing unusual about the stone road a few miles ahead. But in the depths of the cave, there seemed to be some prohibition, and even Murong Feng's Spirit Fox Eye was difficult to probe the mystery inside.
Finding that his Spirit Fox Eye was actually shielded by the prohibition in the cave, Murong Feng was also shocked. After all, it was the first time that his Spirit Fox Eye had been restricted since it was refined. An ominous premonition came to my heart, but because of the order from above, my identity is now a cultivator guarding the pass. Once you retreat from the battle, it is a violation of military law. Helpless, Murong Feng had to take a few cultivators and tentatively walk into the dark Zheng
As Murong Feng expected, after walking for a few miles, Murong Feng found a strange statue. The statue is dressed as if it were a general from a previous dynasty. The general was dressed in heavy armor and had several crossbow arrows stuck in his chest. Although he was pierced by a hundred arrows, the general still looked ahead with a tenacious gaze.
After seeing the statue of this general, Murong Feng seemed to remember something, and he hurriedly asked a local cultivator if there was a mountain of two wolves around here.
After hearing Murong Feng's question, the cultivator immediately nodded and responded that there was indeed a Two Wolf Mountain nearby, and it was not far from here.
"A hundred arrows gather the heart, the heart is not dead, the resolute return, the two wolves cry" Murong Feng naturally knew who this idol was, according to the records in the file given to him by the ancestor of the Ghost Sect, this idol was one of the ten evil gods in the legend, Yang Qilang, who was unjustly killed by a hundred arrows through his heart.
Legend has it that Shichiro is the one in charge of lonely souls and wild ghosts in the netherworld. Since someone has set up a statue of Shichiro here, and this is also Erlong Mountain in the north where Shichiro's soul returns. Then it must be that he wants to use this Shichiro idol to suppress some evil spirit.
"Hurry up and run!" The Ghost Sect Ancestor in the Sea of Knowledge seemed to have discovered something, and hurriedly arrived at Murong Feng. After getting the information from the Ghost Sect Ancestor, Murong Feng hurriedly ran to the left and right, and hurriedly fled towards the original route.
And just after Murong Feng shouted and ran, Chu Xiaoxiao and a local cultivator also hurriedly followed Murong Feng towards the entrance of the cave, and the other cultivator didn't seem to react, still stunned in place.
After a while, the cultivator suddenly began to laugh, at first the smile was normal, but suddenly the cultivator's face began to become hideous, and the cultivator with a distorted face urged the spiritual power in his body and broke the Shichiro statue. Then he bled from seven holes and fell to the ground.
After the Qilang statue was broken, countless bats suddenly flew out behind the statue, and these bats flapped their wings and chased after Murong Feng and the three of them, and the cultivators behind Murong Feng and Chu Xiaoxiao were quickly caught up by the bats. The bats swarmed up, and it didn't take long for the cultivator to turn into a white bone.
"It's a ghost bat, according to legend, this kind of thing only lives in the cemetery converted from the ancient battlefield, and it is used by the demon clan to guard the spirit. This is an ancient battlefield that must have been the demon race and the human race in the past, and it was turned into their cemetery after being sacrificed by the demon race. "Within the sea of knowledge, the ancestor of the Ghost Sect said anxiously.
"Turn the battlefield into a cemetery?" After listening to the words of the Ghost Sect Ancestor, Murong Feng asked with some disbelief.
"After all, the beliefs of the demon clan are different from ours. Legend has it that in a battle, if the demon clan wins in the end, but many of their nobles die in battle, they will build a cemetery for these nobles in the underground of the ancient battlefield. The implication is that these nobles died with glory and will be resurrected here with glory. Looking at the number of ghost bats, the scale of this ancient battlefield is not, there should be a lot of graves of demon nobles in it, I just hope that I don't encounter that thing in this cemetery. "Within the sea of knowledge, the Ghost Sect Ancestor said in a trembling voice.
"What is it?" it was the first time for Murong Feng to see this old monster who had lived for many years so frightened, and hurriedly asked.
"The soul of the holy fox guarding the tomb. Legend has it that the holiest sacrifice of the demon clan is the fox demon witch in their temple. If the sacrifices of the demon clan want to build a large-scale hero cemetery, they will definitely sacrifice a fox demon witch. The fox witch will be brutally killed, and then the demon priest will lock her soul in the tomb, because they are witches who live in the temple during their lifetime, and their souls are often very powerful. And their food is the souls of those who dare to break into the hero's cemetery to disturb the rest of the demon heroes. ”
Before the Ghost Sect Ancestor was finished, Murong Feng heard a cry coming from the depths of the cemetery in the mouth of the Ghost Sect Ancestor, this cry was extremely miserable, and not long after, a girl dressed in white slowly walked out of the darkness, although this girl had a human appearance, she had a pair of fox ears and a fluffy fox tail. After this girl appeared, the ghost bats surrounding Murong Feng and Chu Xiaoxiao also fled in all directions as if they had seen ghosts.
