Chapter 103: Strange Painting Dead Seven
There are many holes under the body of this giant snake, five zhang in size, and the rows look like a small cave. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info Yang Zhixing and I walked to a hole, only to feel the strong smell of fishy, from the rotten hole, the snake skin of this giant snake is unusually thick, down is dry and blackened snake meat, like a rock.
I reached out and touched the snakeskin on the edge of the hole, and it was cold to the touch, and it was really touching the stone. Yang Zhixing on the side said: "The spirit snake's body is as strong as a golden stone, and the sword can't break through its flesh and skin. ”
I withdrew my hand and looked at the flesh-like hole, which looked like a stone, and my heart palpitated. If a hole in the flesh of a person is broken to reveal minced flesh, then the serpent is a black stone. I said, "Then how did you get the blood from this snake?"
Yang Zhixing also reached out and touched the giant snake, and there was a feeling of reluctance on his ugly face, and said: "There is no blood on the body of the spirit snake, we naturally can't break it, we take blood from its eyes, but thirty years ago, the seven major sects attacked this place, and they have already robbed the only blood left in the eyes of the spirit snake, and now I am afraid that there is no blood anymore." ”
The surrounding Immortal Hall disciples had already dispersed, Pang Youren and a few people were following the body of the giant snake to investigate the traces of the fish-headed monster, Fang Wenwen and Lieyang led some people to climb onto the giant snake's body, and were crawling in the direction of the giant snake's head. I wondered, "Isn't the serpent's blood poisonous, and what else do you want it to do?"
Yang Zhixing sighed, turned to the group of people above Fang Wenwen with a giant eye, and said, "All the reasons are the kind of exercises that the Dragon Hall Master cultivated back then, Gu Shaoxia, I think you have already heard of it." ”
My heart moved, and I said, "What kind of martial arts are your Dragon Hall masters cultivating?"
Yang Zhixing looked up at the giant snake, there are many holes under the giant snake, the more holes go up, the fewer the holes, the black snake scales are connected with beads, although the grotto is already brightly lit, but there is no light on the snake scales. He looked around, paused, and said, "Gu Shaoxia, few people know about this matter, and even very few people in my Immortal Hall know about it, but I think you should know about it." ”
I chuckled inwardly, he was serious, not like he was joking with me. I said, "What's the matter?"
"What the Dragon Hall Master cultivates is not martial arts at all, but the way of ascension. ”
I was stunned. After a while, he couldn't help laughing and said, "So the dragon is in the sky now?"
Yang Zhixing shook his head and said, "After the Dragon Hall Master obtained the Spirit Snake Blood to cultivate the path of ascension and revitalize my Immortal Hall, he didn't know where he went, and we didn't know where he went, but we all felt that the Dragon Hall Master was still in the world. ”
I sneered and said, "If he were still in the human world, your Immortal Hall would not have fallen to such a point. ”
Yang Zhixing said: "The master of the Dragon Hall is tired of the martial arts battle, and he asks wholeheartedly, so he no longer cares about the affairs in the hall. ”
I shook my head and said, "If he is still in the world, then he is not an old monster who is one or two hundred years old? ”
This sentence was already a great ridicule of him, Yang Zhixing also smiled, and said: "Gu Shaoxia, you have already seen this spirit snake with your own eyes, even such a giant snake can exist in the world, what else is impossible?"
I was a little speechless for a while, and I didn't know what to say. If I hadn't seen this giant serpent, I would have thought that Yang Zhixing's ascension was nonsense, but now I have a chill behind me.
Yang Zhixing turned his head to look at the stone wall under the stone platform and said, "There is a mural record there, Gu Shaoxia can go and see it." ”
Following his gaze, I saw three murals carved on the rock wall below the stone platform where we were standing. The three murals are carved very high, eight or nine feet from the land under our feet, and look at the size, it seems that they are two circles larger than those in the passage.
I couldn't help but be curious, so I walked over and looked under the stone platform, but I saw that the three murals were almost the same as the ones I had seen in the passage before, with several mountains, a forest and a river in the background, but there was one more person depicted in the painting.
The figure is also very large, almost the size of the snake in the painting. In the first painting, the man is standing in the middle of the river, holding the snake with both hands, as if to pull the snake ashore, but the snake is coiled on a stone in the water, as if he does not want to go ashore.
At this time, Yang Zhixing's voice sounded in my ears: "This first painting says that someone is catching this spirit snake, and it has taken a lot of pains. ”
I was taken aback and said, "You can see how much effort it takes?"
Yang Zhixing stretched out his hand and pointed to the mural and said, "You see, there is a broken wooden stick under this person's feet, which shows that it is not easy for this person to catch this snake, and even the wooden stick is broken." ”
When he pointed at me, I saw that there was a broken wooden stick under the foot of the person in the painting. I couldn't help but blush, I am also a person who likes to appreciate paintings in Chenzhou City, of course, I also know that every grass and tree in the painting has a meaning, but I didn't expect to capsize the boat on a simple mural now.
I looked at the second mural. This mural is more interesting, the figure is lying on the top of a mountain, with a basin of his size in front of him, holding the mountain with one hand, and reaching into the basin with the other, while the snake is coiled around the body of the person in the painting, and a head is also stuck into the basin. The lines in the painting are still simple, but whether it is the person in the painting or the snake, their bodies are taller than the mountain, but they remind me of a very open scene. I said, "This painting is about the people and the snake becoming friends, right? They seem to be eating together." ”
Yang Zhixing was also looking at the second painting and said, "Yes, after this man caught this snake, the two became good friends, and they were very close, eating and sleeping together." ”
I laughed dryly, and said that the ability of this sheep to appreciate the painting is indeed not simple, the person in the painting is half lying and half leaning on the mountain, which naturally alludes to the fact that the person in the painting sits and lies asleep, if this point is ignored, then the meaning of this painting is much simpler. But he's an interesting guy, and I can't help but look at him differently.
Turning his head to look at the third painting, this one depicts a scene of fighting. In the painting, the mountains, water, and trees fall to the ground, and the man is holding a large knife, pulling out his stance, and is swinging his knife to slash at a worm larger than him. The bug is depicted in great detail, with a body that resembles a caterpillar, six legs underneath, two long wings on its back, an open mouth that seems to be full of fangs, and two long antennae on its head. And the snake is carved behind this worm, with its mouth wide open to bite.
I was a little shocked, although the painting is still very simple, but it is not difficult to imagine the fierceness of the battle scene, but unfortunately the mural is only carved here as if it has a broken tail, and there is no mural behind. I said, "Not in the back?"
Yang Zhixing said: "No, don't you think something is wrong?"
I frowned and said, "What's this, it's just a few murals......" As soon as I said this, I shuddered and looked up at the three murals.
If the snake in this painting is the giant snake in front of us, then could the people and strange insects in the painting also exist?
I was taken aback by this idea, and Yang Zhixing rolled his huge eyes and said, "It seems that you have already guessed." It is true that since the spirit snake already exists, then the person and the strange insect in the painting must exist, and this spirit snake is very likely to die in the final battle. ”
I just didn't believe it and said, "But how can there be such a huge person in this world!"
"But there's such a huge spirit snake, isn't there?"
I was stunned, my mind was already in a state of confusion, this kind of thing was too mysterious to be understood. I said, "If there is such a person, what kind of person is it?" ”
Yang Zhixing looked up at the mural and said meaningfully: "We call him an ancient god, the founding god of our Western Regions. ”
I don't know why, when I heard him talk about gods, I was inexplicably annoyed, and said in a deep voice: "Where in this world will there be any gods, if there were, there would not be so many people dead, and this spirit snake would not die." ”
Yang Zhixing sighed and said, "If you don't believe it, it's fine, but when many people see this spirit snake, they will believe in the existence of gods, and they are more willing to believe that drinking the blood of the spirit snake can achieve enlightenment and ascend." ”
I looked at the giant snake in front of me, and for a moment I was a little speechless, but I didn't know how to refute him. I said, "That's why thirty years ago, your Immortal Hall experienced such a catastrophe?"
Yang Zhixing clenched his fists and said, "Pifu is not guilty of his crimes, the Seven Great Sects are nominally under the guise of eliminating demons and defending the Dao, but in fact they are here for the blood of the spirit snake, and they are the only ones who want to be vicious." The Central Plains martial arts also believe in gods, and it is ridiculous to pray to God and worship Buddha on weekdays, but in the end they come to snatch the blood of our spirit snake. ”
My heart trembled slightly, and I couldn't help but think of what had happened in the past few days. In my previous imagination, the seven major sects were all famous sects in the rivers and lakes, and they were highly respected, and as a decent person, they should take it as their responsibility to eradicate the demon sect. But I was wrong, and what happened later was far from being as simple as I thought. Now, after Yang Zhixing said this, I feel that the Seven Great Sects are not so righteous and awe-inspiring.
I was a little stunned, looked at Yang Zhixing, and said, "You told me so much, just want to tell me this?"
Yang Zhixing didn't answer me immediately, but turned his gaze to the serpent's back. At this time, Fang Wenwen, Lie Yang and the others had already climbed to the neck of the giant snake, and were climbing towards the head of the giant snake, the body of the giant snake was too huge, and a group of people stood at its neck, as if they were standing under a huge hill. He said, "Gu Shaoxia, you came to the Death Swamp this time to refine the antidote to the poison, right?" The blood in your body can dissolve the poison, right?"
I said, "Yes, I followed Master Cheng Zhuang and Master Jie Sect to the Death Swamp to pick the ghost head grass and refine the antidote in the Kunlun Sect. ”
Yang Zhixing looked me up and down, with a strange brilliance in his eyes, and said, "You also know that the blood of the spirit snake contains poison, right?"
A trace of irritability rose inexplicably in my heart, and I said in a deep voice: "What do you want to say, why bother with clouds and mountains and fog?"
Yang Zhixing said: "You have a catastrophe coming, don't you know it?"
I was surprised, "Disaster is coming?"
Yang Zhixing nodded and said: "The blood of the spirit snake contains poison, and when a person eats it, it will become a person who is not a ghost or a ghost, if your blood can unravel the venom, it will definitely be able to unravel the venom in the blood of the spirit snake." He paused, and then said, "If someone gets the blood of the spirit snake, then they will definitely take the blood from your body to refine it." ”
Although he did not name him, he directly referred to the scriptures in his words, and the meaning of his words was also obvious. I sneered and said, "It's up to you?"
Yang Zhixing shook his head and smiled, "What's the matter?" Gu Shaoxia thinks that the people of my Immortal Hall don't dare to attack you?"
I held the shadow chasing sword to the side of my body, raised my eyebrows, and said, "I'm afraid you don't have that ability." ”
This sentence is a bit threatening, but I am full of confidence. Even the tens of thousands of fish-headed monsters in the valley can't help me, what can they do to me with the only remaining 800 people? Yang Zhixing smiled bitterly and said: "Gu Shaoxia has extraordinary skills, and the old man is also very impressed. However, for the sake of the path of ascension, these people can do everything, even if you return to the Kunlun Sect, I am afraid that it will be difficult to escape death. ”
I was secretly taken aback, but I said coldly on my face: "The Lord of the Sheep Altar is serious, the Seven Great Gates sent the blood on my body just to refine the antidote, how can they kill me?"
Yang Zhixing said: "If you think so, the old man has nothing to say, but they even killed the two heroes of Mobei, how can they care about your life?"
"Mobei Shuangxiong is dead?"
Yang Zhixing nodded, and said: "Mobei Shuangxiong is the distant nephew of Master Li of Jingzhou Tongju, and the relationship between the two and the Seven Great Sects is also quite good, and the two of them were drained of blood by the Seven Great Sects, and now the bones are buried in Hengzhou, which is what my Changshengtang disciples have seen with their own eyes." ”
I was taken aback, but I didn't expect that Mobei Shuangxiong would have such a relationship. Jingzhou was an important place for the soldiers of the Great Song Dynasty, and Zhizhou had the power to judge the army, and he commanded more than 100,000 troops? In this way, the two heroes of Mobei were the sons of powerful ministers? With the support of the imperial court behind them, I am afraid that the two of them would have no fear at all when they walked the rivers and lakes. However, even with such an identity, he was killed by the people of the Seven Great Sects? I looked at Yang Zhixing, but I didn't believe it, and said, "Which of the Seven Great Sects killed them?"
Yang Zhixing said: "Shaolin faction." ”
I said angrily: "How is this possible? The Shaolin faction is a decent family, and the children of the sect are all righteous people, and they will never do such a thing." The owner of the sheep altar, if you talk nonsense again, don't blame Gu for having cold teeth. ”
Yang Zhixing looked at me, sighed for a long time, and said: "Gu Shaoxia didn't believe it, so he gave up, and the old man also saw that Hanyan had a good relationship with Shaoxia, so he had the heart to remind him." How to decide, only in the young man. ”
He suddenly talked about Meng Hanyan, which made me a little overwhelmed for a while, and her figure seemed to appear in front of me again, with a smile and a vivid smile. I relieved myself and sighed, "Where is Dream Girl now?"
Yang Zhixing shook his head and said, "We don't know where she is?"
I was a little strange and said, "She is the Holy Aunt of your Immortal Hall, how could you not know?"
Yang Zhixing said: "Her identity is quite special, and her relationship with Fang Wenwen is not good, we haven't seen her for a long time." ”
Meng Hanyan must know the secret of Kaitian, otherwise she wouldn't have let me come to the Western Regions in the first place, and even I vaguely felt that she also knew something about the mutations that had occurred in me.
I thought silently. Just wanted to ask Yang Zhixing about Meng Hanyan again, at this moment, a disciple of the Immortal Hall in the distance hurriedly ran along the body of the giant snake, and as soon as we approached, this person hugged his fists and said: "Tell the Lord of the Sheep Altar, we have found a human skeleton on the spirit snake, and the Lord of the Pang Altar invites you to come over." ”
Yang Zhixing was taken aback, a giant eye almost popped out, and shouted, "Where, lead the way!" After saying that, he and the disciple of the Immortal Hall took a step and ran towards the tail of the giant snake together.
In front of him, the mountain-like giant snake had no life at all, its green and black snake skin was like mud in a swamp, and the holes under it were like rotten sores, and there were countless of them. Many of the holes were covered with broken snake skins, but even if they were just snake skins, they were as hard as rocks. Turning his head to look at the mural again, for some reason, there was a chill all over his body. There are strange rocks and rocks in the long and narrow valley, and these three murals are very conspicuous on the stone wall. The serpent already exists, but does the person in the painting really exist?
I tightened my grip on the Shadow Chaser and ran over.
