Chapter 21: The Yellow Spring Tomb
Yue Mingxin and the others followed the tall gray deer all the way in the mist, and Jiang Jianqiu could faintly feel that there were ghosts in the distance, but those ghosts seemed to be far away from his group, and none of them dared to enter the range near everyone. Jiang Jianqiu thought about it, most of the time it was still a little strange about this deer, he said in his heart that this deer is so powerful, why don't you go to that ancient tomb by yourself, and you have to catch your own group to do coolies. Suddenly, he thought about it, didn't it mean that the things in the grave were more powerful than this deer, so they didn't die in vain when they went in?
The more Jiang Jianqiu thought about it, the more he felt that he had no bottom in his heart, and quietly walked to Ling Shengxue's side and said in a low voice: "Senior sister, this deer can obviously disperse a large number of ghosts, why do you want to go around in a big circle and find a few of us to go on this trip?"
Ling Shengxue walked in the mist, her steps were light and steady, she glanced at Jiang Jianqiu, and said lightly: "Senior brother, all things in the world are mutually reinforcing, although this gray deer can disperse a large number of ghosts, but there may not be any nemesis that will discourage it. In short, since you have decided to go on this trip, don't look ahead and do your best. ”
Ling Shengxue suddenly lowered her voice and said to Jiang Jianqiu, "Senior brother, what do you think of that Mo Danfeng?" When he heard the three words of Tang Wang's Tomb just now, his reaction was obviously a little abnormal, this person was of unknown origin and was possessed by a demon sword. It's a big problem to get him to come with us. ”
Jiang Jian frowned, and said in a low voice: "Although this nerd is possessed by the demon sword, judging from his words and demeanor, it doesn't seem to be harmful, he follows us with a cheeky skin, we can't throw him into this vast sea of fog." ”
Ling Shengxue bowed slightly and said, "Before, I said that I would leave him in that Cave Heaven Realm, but you didn't agree, and now I have to let him follow everyone first." But being possessed by the demon sword can still move so freely, his realm should be above you and me, can't do it...... There may be a Taoist line at the peak of the Jade Mansion. In short, whether it is him or the demon sword on his body, it is a big trouble, you and I must pay more attention. ”
Jiang Jianqiu nodded cautiously after hearing this, and did not speak again. Yue Mingxin, who was in front, suddenly stopped the script, turned his head and said with a smile: "Everyone come and see, we seem to have arrived." ”
As the crowd walked forward, the fog around them had thinned out at this time, and the distant scenery gradually emerged. At this time, it was already noon, the strong sunlight was falling, and in front of everyone was a semi-circular low mountain, Jiang Jianqiu carefully observed for a long time, and always felt that this low mountain was a little out of place with the surrounding peaks and valleys. The hill is so sleek and well-organized that the whole hill forms a perfect hemispherical shape, like a large bowl that is buckled upside down on the ground.
Ling Shengxue looked at the round hill in front of him and said softly, "I didn't expect that there would be such a huge cemetery in this deep mountain......
Jiang Jianqiu smacked his tongue, such a huge cemetery was built in this deep mountain and old forest, it seems that the Tang King's handwriting is really not small. He looked around and said suspiciously, "This is the ancient tomb in the hinterland of Tangyin Mountain? We have only been walking for less than an hour, how could we arrive so quickly?"
Ling Shengxue said on the side: "It should be the technique of shrinking the ground, but it is not clear who performed it, I think it is most likely the deer." ”
Jiang Jianqiu nodded suddenly, he looked carefully at the mountain in front of him, the front end of the mountain was cut straight off, and there was a stone tablet more than two zhang high standing in front of him. The stone carved beast statue of the camel stele has been broken after many years of wind and rain, and only a large lump of jet-black stone is left, steadily the dark cyan stele above. I don't know what material the stele itself is made of, and after endless years of washing, the shape is still intact, but the corners are slightly worn. Jiang Jianqiu walked in front of the stele and looked up, and there were three big characters written on the cyan stele in ancient fashion, "Tomb of King Tang".
At this moment, Jiang Jianqiu felt something on his side, and he turned around to find that it was the giant deer that was gently touching his shoulder with the giant horns on its head. Jiang Jianqiu was stunned for a moment, not knowing what was going on with the gray deer, the gray giant deer leaned forward slightly, and handed the thing that he was shouting in his mouth to Jiang Jianqiu. Jiang Jianqiu stretched out his hand to take it, but found that it was an emerald green leaf, which looked no different from ordinary leaves, but when he looked carefully, he could see that in the veins of this leaf, there was a faint flow of light and shadow, as if it was the blood vessels of this leaf.
Jiang Jianqiu looked at the gray deer a little blankly and said, "This...... What is it for?" The gray deer snorted, did not answer him, turned and walked slowly in the direction where he came, and with the sound of the clattering hooves of the deer hitting the ground, the tall figure of the gray deer gradually disappeared into the dense fog in the distance.
Jiang Jianqiu couldn't help but feel a little depressed, and muttered: "Throw us to the cemetery in the wilderness and don't care, and leave a leaf behind, and don't say anything, it's really inexplicable!" He backhanded the leaf into his arms and continued: "Forget it, it's good to take it back and show off with a few of them." ”
At this time, other people also walked up, and Yue Mingxin said: "This ancient tomb is large-scale, but I don't know what era this Tang King is. ”
Ling Shengxue said lightly on the side: "King Tang is the founding king of the Tang Kingdom, the Tang Kingdom has a history of more than eight thousand years, and this Tang King should already be a person eight thousand years ago. ”
"Eight thousand years!" Ling'er on the side stuck out his tongue when he heard this, and then said, "Then there are not all ghosts in this tomb who are thousands of years old. ”
Jiang Jianqiu frowned, and said depressedly: "Can you say something auspicious about this kid, if you really encounter any demons and monsters in a while, you will definitely be the first to eat your little doll." ”
Ling'er stuck out her tongue at Jiang Jianqiu, grimaced, and stopped talking.
Ling Shengxue raised his eyes and looked around, and after a while, he said, "The location of this tomb is in line with the direction of Zhou Tian, according to the layout of the twenty-eight constellations, there should be an extremely powerful formation inside. To build such a large tomb in such a desolate place, this Tang King is really a big deal. It's just ......" Ling Shengxue suddenly fell silent halfway through speaking, Yue Mingxin was a little strange on the side, and asked, "Miss Ling, what have you discovered?"
Ling Shengxue hesitated and said, "I don't think this formation is like protecting this tomb, it's more like preventing something inside from coming out. ”
Jiang Jianqiu's face turned bitter when he heard this, and he grinned and said, "You are all so scary, do you want to go in or not!"
Suddenly, Mo Danfeng said on the side: "Come and see, there are still words on the back of this tombstone!"
When everyone heard this, they hurriedly came to the back of this tombstone, looked up, and saw two huge words engraved with bright red cinnabar:
"Yellow Springs"
