Chapter 81: Chiyou Palace
"What kind of statue is this, so fierce and vicious, is it the king of Hades?" Liu Dezhi glanced at the statue for a while, and muttered a little puzzled. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
"It's not Hades, it's the demon god Chiyou. ā
Yuwen Chenyi shook his head, as a descendant of Yan and Huang, he is very familiar with Chiyou: Chiyou is the leader of the Jiuli tribe in ancient times, according to legend, his face is like a cow's head, his back has two wings, a copper head and an iron forehead, eight arms, and nine toes. Born with divine power, he is good at fighting with knives, axes, and ge, never stopping, and is extremely brave, and is worshiped as the "God of War".
The most mentioned in the ancient books is that he led the Jiuli tribe and the Yellow Emperor Xuanyuan clan led the great war of the Huaxia tribe, he had united Xingtian and Kuafu, and with the help of the water god Kang Hui and Feng Bo Yushi, he defeated the Yellow Emperor in 72 battles in a row.
Later, the Yellow Emperor invited the zombie ancestor daughter "Lu" to defeat Chiyou in the battle of Zhuolu, and Chiyou was killed by "Ying Long" in the defeat of the wild army of chasing deer, and the blood on her neck flew into the sky, forming the banner of Chiyou to seal the sky, so that Nulu and Ying Long could not return to the sky, so they were also called "Demon God".
Although this statue is somewhat different from the legend, it can be seen at a glance that it is Chiyou, and the murals on the four sides of the underground palace and the statues of gods such as Fengbo, Feilian, and Yushi depicted on the reliefs are all his subordinates back then.
It's just that how this underground palace, known as "Abi Hell", could enshrine the idol of Chiyou, which is really a bit puzzling.
Could it be that he sells dog meat on the head of a sheep?
Yuwen Chenyi glanced at the entire underground palace with some confusion, and found that this underground palace was in a circular design, the top was painted in a blue-gray sky, and the patterns of the Milky Way and the sun, moon and stars were painted with white lacquer.
However, the entire palace was empty, except for a dozen statues in the center, mainly Chiyou, and the thirty-six stone pillars supporting the dome.
This is an extremely abnormal phenomenon, how can a dungeon that is so huge that it is tens of tilts not have such buildings as pavilions and palaces? It is impossible to spend such a huge amount of manpower and material resources just to enshrine a few statues.
With full of doubts, the four of them explored step by step in the dungeon, Yuwen Chenyi was at the front of the entire team, and his primary purpose was to take everyone to find the underground dark river in the direction of the cold wind blowing in the hall.
The huge dark and deep space makes people feel particularly uneasy and depressed, especially the winding and circling dragons carved on the stone pillars, with teeth and claws, the dragon head is prominent, and the huge mouth is open, like an ancient beast that chooses people and devours.
The dark environment, uncertain factors, make people feel cold, the mood of the four people fluctuates, the sound of heartbeat, breathing, footsteps, mixed together, in the deathly silent underground palace seems extraordinarily clear.
"What's that up front?"
After walking forward for hundreds of meters, an undulating shadow faintly appeared in front of the dark hall, shining with a faint white halo, indescribably hazy and holy.
Xue Lin drove the spirit butterfly to shine forward, and couldn't help but be stunned, it was an earth altar composed of eight diagrams, Qian, Kun, Zhen, Xun, Kan, Li, Gen, and Dui eight symbols, emitting white rays, forming a circle of light, enveloping the earth altar.
The altar of the earth is circular, about tens of meters square, made of black marble, simple and simple, a huge bronze tripod is placed in the center, about several zhang high, the whole body is engraved with a simple inscription.
The four feet with the pattern of the turtle are connected to the black iron chains as thick as arms, which go deep into the ground, filled with the breath of time, and I don't know how many years they have existed.
The most striking thing is that there are several heavenly book talismans on the top of the ding, and there are evil mirrors, dust, demon suppression pestles and other things around the ding, some of which are faintly bright and flowing, which should be a magic weapon containing aura.
What is this altar used for?
There is also a bronze tripod, how can there be magic weapons and talismans to suppress demons and ward off evil spirits?
Two huge questions, so that the four of them involuntarily stopped, curiously looked at this altar, just a moment, all the people showed their shocked faces, and in an instant they thought of "Chiyou".
"Could it be that this bronze tripod is suppressing the demon god Chiyou?!" Xue Lin was the first to call out.
"Most likely, the murals and sculptures in this entire underground palace are related to him. Yan'er nodded.
Yuwen Chenyi has a cautious attitude towards this, according to legend, after Chiyou was captured and killed by Emperor Xuanyuan, he was afraid that he would make trouble after his death, so he was dismantled into eight pieces and buried in different places far away, if there is, this is only part of it.
However, this possibility cannot be ruled out, it is said that the capital of the Emperor Xuanyuan Holy Emperor is in Kunlun, since his old man is here, it is also very possible that Chiyou's body was suppressed in Kunlun.
"It's not a good place to stay long, so it's important for us to get out of here. ā
Yuwen Chenyi waved his hand to the three of them, this mysterious underground palace is really unsettling, even if there are endless secrets, it is not something that can be explored now, and getting out alive is the most important thing.
Xue Lin was curious, and said, "It's not easy to enter the underground palace, if you don't know how to do it, I'll take a look." After speaking, he walked towards the altar of earth.
Seeing this, Yuwen Chenyi, Yan'er, and Liu Dezhi shouted at the same time: "Xue Lin (sister) must not be reckless. ā
"If you don't go, you won't go, I'm really convinced of you. Xue Lin heard the eager cries of the three people, stopped, shrugged his shoulders, and touched the aperture shrouded in it with some reluctance.
Before the words fell, the circle of light condensed on the gossip map suddenly shone brightly, and a larger circle of light bloomed, spreading to the entire dungeon at once, and the originally dark dungeon instantly became as bright as day.
Thirty-six huge stone pillars suddenly sounded a beep-beep, and some small pieces of rubble fell from the carved dragon.
Yuwen Chenyi suddenly had a bad premonition in his heart, pressed the hilt of the sword with one hand, waved to everyone with the other, and stepped up his steps and walked quickly in the direction of the cold wind.
The three of them followed closely behind, leaving the Temple of Earth and walking forward quickly for a distance of more than a hundred meters, when they suddenly heard the sound of a sigh of soot.
The four of them immediately became alert and listened attentively, but the voice disappeared, and after taking a few steps forward, the voice sounded again, and they couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat, and they all thought in their hearts, don't come to anything weird.
After walking a distance of one hundred and ten steps forward, there was a faint sound of flowing water in the cold wind, and he was overjoyed, knowing that what he expected was not bad, there must be an underground dark river in this underground palace, and he rushed forward quickly.
The end of the underground palace finally appeared in front of me, which was a stone gatehouse carved from a single piece of blue and white stone, and there was a vivid statue of the Bodhisattva on both sides.
Xue Lin shouted happily: "Just ahead, there is a passage behind the stone gatehouse." ā
Just as her words came out, the sound of Si Su behind her was already ringing endlessly, as if the sound of something swimming underground and stone pillars came extremely fast.
The four of them glanced back behind them and screamed in fright.
