Chapter 72: Drums
Yuwen Chen Yi saw that the spirit butterfly was leading the way in front, with sufficient light and a wide field of vision, so he asked Xue Lin for a bow and arrow, and once he found the enemy, he could attack from a distance first. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
After walking down the road for a distance, the bluestone steps became more and more damp, and the stone walls on both sides were mossy.
His eyes followed the footsteps, staring at the steps step by step, and walking down, he was delicate, and counted while walking, and when he silently counted the three hundred and sixty stone steps in his heart, he finally reached the bottom of the road.
The terrain in front of it has become a flat and spacious bluestone avenue, and the spirit butterfly flies five or six meters in front of everyone's heads, reflecting the scenery in front of them as if it were daytime.
By the light, Yuwen Chenyi's gaze stretched out into the distance, and he was taken aback, at the end of this passage was an extremely huge underground city, with black houses stacked on top of each other, and there were no less than hundreds.
The walls are all made of finely carved granite, and there are lanterns installed on the surrounding stone walls every other zhang, but the light inside is still very dark and eerie.
Yuwen Chenyi raised his eyes and found that there were twenty-four huge stone pillars erected in an orderly manner to support the dome of the main hall, and the stone pillars were also carved with a winding and circling dragon.
I can't help but sigh in my heart, I don't know how brilliant the civilization used to be here, not to mention anything else, just the scale of this underground city in front of me is a huge project, how can it be built without hundreds of thousands of laborers.
To be able to do this, it must be a big country with a rich country and a strong people, but I don't know why these ancients spent so much energy to build a dungeon?
With a questioning gaze, he glanced and walked as he went, and finally found a large stone tablet in the center of the dungeon.
Walking over quickly, I saw that there were four big characters engraved on the iron and silver hooks "Yama Treasure Palace", the handwriting was as red as blood, and there was a strong smell of blood, as if it had just been splashed with blood on the carved stone tablet.
Yuwen Chenyi stretched out his right hand and touched the handwriting on the stone tablet with two fingers, and when he came to his eyes, he was as red as new, and then took the tip of his nose and smelled it, the smell of blood was fresh, and he immediately frowned, and said in a deep voice: "This blood is fresh, and it will take less than half an hour to splash it at most." ”
When Xue Lin heard this, the hairs all over his body suddenly stood on end, a trace of ominous premonition flashed in his mind, and he said tremblingly: "This ancient city has been abandoned for thousands of years, where did the fresh blood come from, could it be..."
Yuwen Chenyi affirmed her thoughts, nodded, and said: "There are no other people in this ancient city, this blood should be the two people who are guarding the camels outside the courtyard, everyone be careful, this must be the place where the murderer is." ”
As soon as the words came out, at the end of the dungeon, an earth-shattering roar suddenly sounded, which shook the eardrums of the four people, and a huge monster gradually emerged from the darkness.
Yuwen Chenyi raised his eyes and looked at it, his heart couldn't help but jump out, this monster was more than ten meters tall, his whole body was covered with black and faint scale armor, and there were two long horns on his head that were several meters long like antlers, and his two red lantern-like eyes were shining with red light.
Black smoke continued to emanate from the two nostrils, two rows of huge white fangs appeared on the scarlet mouth, long fins on the back that reached the tail, and huge hands and feet with eagle-like talons.
Liu Dezhi exclaimed: "Oh my God, what kind of monster is this, so huge!"
Yuwen Chenyi shook his head and said, "It doesn't matter what kind of monster he is, anyway, with this size and posture, we will never be able to shake it in the slightest, so quickly find a place to hide." ”
Xue Lin looked at the monster in a daze, and suddenly said, "This is the 'drum' of the ancient barbarian beast." ”
"Drums?" Yuwen Chenyi and Liu Dezhi both felt that this name was strange.
Xue Lin snorted and said: "Legend has it that it is the son of the mountain god Candle Yin, with a human face and a dragon body, and great power, because he conspired with the god Qin to kill another god Baojiang, and was executed by Emperor Xuanyuan. ”
When Liu Dezhi heard this, his heart was cold, and he shouted in a low voice: "So, this is really a netherworld?"
Yuwen Chenyi denied his statement, shook his head and said: "This dungeon was obviously built by the ancients, and it is by no means a real underworld, do you remember the nine Rakshasa demons that Liu Yue'er ambushed, she said that someone summoned them with spiritualism, I guess, this big guy should also be summoned by someone." ”
Yan'er glanced at Yuwen Chenyi with approval, and said, "You are right, I have heard Master say that this kind of summoned ghost thing is particularly sensitive to the breath of the living, we have to quickly concentrate and find a place to hide." ”
While he was talking, the drum let out an angry roar again, his whole body trembled, the red light flashed in his eyes, and he looked in the direction of the stele, and the four of them were all startled, and hurriedly hid behind the stele.
Yuwen Chenyi thought to himself: This monster's nose is so smart, the stone tablet is full of such a heavy smell of blood, it can be asked, it is really a ghost, the word "ghost" just flashed in his mind, the wind on the other side of the passage was loud, and the ghost chirped, and rushed towards the dungeon.
Yuwen Chenyi was shocked in his heart, and said secretly: It's not good, Liu Yue'er's old ghost woman has chased after her!
Xue Liu and Yan'er also changed their faces drastically, and they both lost their blood color at once.
Sure enough, as soon as the three of them had their thoughts, Liu Yue'er had already appeared in the dungeon, and at a glance, she saw the four people hiding under the stone tablet.
There was a cold murderous aura in her eyes, staring at Yan'er suspiciously, and scolded: "The cheap maid who doesn't know whether she is alive or dead, she dares to betray her old body inside and out, and today she will definitely drain your soul and refine your soul, and crush your bones and ashes!"
Yan'er was so scared of Liu Yue'er that she was already so frightened that she was shaking like chaff and couldn't speak.
Xue Liu and the others were also dead, thinking that there were roadblocks in front of them and soul chasers in the back, and they were doomed to die!
Yuwen Chenyi is an exception, the hellish battlefield of Shura has already forged his iron bones and courage not to be afraid of death, and in such an occasion with no chance of winning, it has aroused the infinite fighting spirit in his heart.
Even if I die, I will drag you to hell with me!
Staring at Liu Yue'er with both eyes, holding the long sword tightly in his left hand, this strong thought flashed in Yuwen Chenyi's heart.
