Chapter 512: Ancestral Hall
Night.
Wan Peng's guard detachment was in charge of the daytime guards during this time, so the night time gave him the opportunity to act. A few days ago, Wan Peng was not in a hurry to explore, firstly, he was not familiar with the surrounding environment, and secondly, he also determined the goal. But now, his target is directly at the ancestral hall of Dahl's house.
There must be a secret there. Because in the entire building of the Dahl Mansion, only there are traces of the early Chixiao. And if you want to leave something for future generations, the best way to prevent it from being destroyed is to build this kind of ancestral hall. Unless, the whole family is destroyed and the ancestral hall is destroyed.
In the afternoon, shortly after Hulan's arrival, five members of the Dahl family, believed to have disagreed with Bu, were publicly killed. As for whether there are dissenting minds among them, and whether they are related to the death of Budu, there is no way to verify. At the time of the public execution, some of them scolded Hulan, demolished the bridge, cooked rabbits and dead dogs, unloaded mills and killed donkeys. However, the other four people were very quiet and had a good attitude of admitting their mistakes.
Later, Wan Peng learned that the scolding person was the only one among these people whose parents died and he was single.
Hulan took this step, perhaps to save himself from future troubles. If these people are really related to him all the way and Budu's death, leaving them here will be a hidden danger sooner or later. Now that these five people are dead, Hulan can sleep more peacefully.
But Wan Peng didn't know that Hulan was not sleeping well at all now. He has always been haunted by the affairs of Wan Peng's night detective, and has always been haunted by the abilities of Wan Peng and Princess Yo You. One is a master who may have extremely high combat ability, and the other is a princess of the demon world who has a very deep background and responds to every call in the demon world, these two people escaped from the dungeon forbidden area and came together, which is definitely not good news for him.
Therefore, openly and secretly, he continued to increase his forces and searched for the location of Wan Peng and Princess Yoyou. However, he never expected that Wan Peng and Princess Yo You would actually get mixed up in the old mansion of their Dahl family. Therefore, the news of the return of people from all walks of life is that there is no gain.
Tonight, however, he felt an inexplicable sense of unease. He didn't know where this uneasiness came from, and he had felt it that way since he came back from Dahl's house.
Wan Peng and Yo You, one after the other, slipped out of the place where they lived after they were asleep. The two of them changed into night clothes halfway through, and at the predetermined place, they met in secret. For such a long time, the two have had a lot of tacit understanding in action, only Wan Peng has ideas, and Princess Yoyou can basically realize it according to his ideas.
"Are you going to the ancestral hall?" Princess Yoyou finally had to confirm his purpose to Wan Peng.
"That's right. Wan Peng first carefully observed the surrounding movements, confirmed that there were no patrol members for the time being, and habitually pulled Princess Youyou's arm, "Let's go." ”
He wasn't moving too fast this time, and everything was on the safe side. After all, this is the interior of Dahl's house, and the security work is very tight and tense these days, and the speed is too fast, which is easy to cause wind and environmental spiritual fluctuations, and it is difficult to say that it will be discovered by some astute personnel.
Starting from their place of residence, they hid while walking, and when they arrived at the foot of the ancestral hall, half a pillar of incense had already passed. After Wan Peng moved, his breathing was still even and still, and he couldn't see any change. He took Princess Yoyou to a dark place on the side of the ancestral hall and let go of his hand.
Wan Peng took out a formation talisman and handed it to Princess Yoyou, "I'll go in alone." You help me control the wind outside, and if you find anything abnormal, you drive this formation, and I can receive it inside. Then you leave by yourself and leave me alone. ”
Princess Yoyo hesitated for a moment, but still took the formation talisman. This is the first time that she and Wan Peng have acted separately, and it means a lot to her. In every previous action, Wan Peng took her with him, to put it bluntly, he was somewhat afraid that she would have different intentions. And this time, Wan Peng let her go, not only a trust, but also a trust.
Princess Yoyou looked at Wan Peng, and her tone was a little more firm, "You go, don't worry, there is me outside." ”
Wan Peng nodded, and one fell into the darkness, and disappeared into the darkness.
To enter the ancestral hall of Dahl's house, choosing the entrance is key. But this point will not be difficult for Wan Peng. Any ancestral hall used for burial will inevitably have a vent, and Wan Peng spread out his spiritual sense, and soon found an air flow place on the third floor. He jumped up and stood on the edge of the vent.
This vent is cleverly set in the structure of the building, and is sheltered by building materials outside, and at the same time, the air outlet position is dispersed into more than ten parts, and the air outlet is extremely weak, if the spiritual sense is weaker, it is almost difficult to detect. After Wan Peng made sure that these shields were not protected by the formation, he slowly removed some of them, revealing a narrow passage that was one person high.
Wan Peng settled down, walked in slowly, and put the covers up from the inside. The interior of the passage is not flat, and it can be seen that it is completely designed for ventilation, which not only meets all the conditions of the air duct, but also effectively prevents rain and dust from entering, and at the same time prevents insects and rodents. Along the passage inward, after walking for about ten zhang, a ventilation formation appeared in front of him.
The formation is set in the air, and the lines are horizontal at the exit, which can not only ensure the air flow, but also have a detection effect. Wan Peng didn't want to touch it, so he looked at a gap in the pattern and walked through it directly.
Entering the house, Wan Peng did not land. He carefully probed the formations here, but found that except for some formations that assisted in purification and embalming, there were actually no defensive formations here. It seems that their ancestors have achieved a considerable status back then, and they are not worried about their bones being destroyed.
And as soon as it landed, the little black who was in the Wan Peng Na ring seemed to sense something, and took the initiative to send a signal from the Na ring, Wan Peng stopped it twice, but did not let it quiet down. Considering that Xiao Hei was originally a Burning Sky Divine Beast, maybe he had discovered something abnormal here, Wan Peng hesitated for a moment and released Xiao Hei.
After Xiao Hei came out, he first let out a low "um", and then actually walked to a mat in front of the ancestral brand in the middle and spread out his feet on all fours, lying on it, his head against the ground, showing an expression that Wan Peng had never seen. Wan Peng thought that this was some special action of Xiao Hei, but after observing it for a while, Xiao Hei did not move. Wan Peng really couldn't understand Xiao Hei's approach, and saw that it wasn't noisy, so he simply ignored it and slowly searched on the third floor.
The third layer is indeed full of ashes for burial, but the arrangement is relatively loose, which should be relatively early. Counting, there are eighteen in total, and the most conspicuous and largest is the one where Xiao Hei is. Others, neither on the wall nor on the floor, have found nothing of value.
"Blackie. Wan Peng shouted, but Xiao Hei didn't answer. Taking a deep breath, Wan Peng walked to the side of the stairs and headed towards the second floor.
The second floor is also a burial ground, but it is much denser than the third floor, and there are more than 200 positions in total, except for some of them, which are buried independently, the others are placed in the form of cabinets, like a medicine cabinet containing traditional Chinese medicine. And Budu, who had just died, was buried in the outermost place of independent burial.
Walking down the second floor, there is nothing special to find. After Wan Peng was sure that there was no probing formation in the environment, he slowly walked to the first floor.
The first floor is where Hulan worshiped before. It is more like the lobby of a temple, which is both spacious and empty compared to the two floors above.
On the first floor, there are also relatively many formations. There are sixteen probing formations, thirteen defensive formations, and eight offensive formations. These formations form a strict formation system, but they have one thing in common, that is, they are all based on the five elements of yin and yang. The formation is driven by magic weapons such as spirit stones, and some formations drive magic weapons The spiritual power of the magic weapon has been exhausted, so the operation efficiency of the formation is not high, and it is difficult to exert the design effect.
The Dahl family's ancestral plaque in the middle is actually a stone tablet. What kind of material, Wan Peng can't judge for the time being. Because it is enshrined indoors, the weathering of the stele is not serious. On the front of the stele is written a few words to remember by the descendants of the Dahl family, and on the back is an inscription with strange fonts, some of which are not common words. Wan Peng used the array sigil to rub it first, and then began to search for it in the tablet.
On the surface, everything here is arranged, except that the style is different from that of the Demon Realm, there is no obvious mechanism. Wan Peng slowly spread out his spiritual sense, using his spiritual sense to probe the entire ancestral hall. At the same time, his spiritual sense also seeped into the interior of some of the instruments, trying to see if anything was hidden inside.
This probe is really a discovery.
One is the incense burner that was incense on the front of Hulan and the old woman. At the bottom of the incense burner, there is a formation, and every time their incense is inserted into the bottom. Wan Peng took a stick of incense and felt it a little. Although he couldn't determine the ingredients, this incense contained abundant spiritual power, and when it burned, through the formation at the bottom of this incense burner, the spiritual power could be transported to the stone tablet, which had a nourishing effect on the stone tablet. This may also be another reason why the weathering of the stele is not severe.
And inside the stele, there is actually a handprint that is invisible from the outside. The ten fingers of this handprint are open, and in the posture, Wan Peng vaguely feels a little familiar.
"Have you ever seen this palm? It's obviously different from other palms. Wan Peng asked Liyang, hoping that Liyang would give him some useful advice.
Liyang was obviously also thinking about this question, "Let me think about it again." I'm sure I've seen it. And more than once. ”
Wan Peng actually feels the same way. It didn't take long for the two of them to say almost in unison, "Vedic Divine Palm!"
That's right, this is the posture of the Vedic Divine Palm. The first posture of the Vedic Divine Palm, when the palm is struck, is this posture. However, how could the palm of the Vedic Divine Palm appear in the stone tablet of the ancestral hall of the Dahl family? Could it be that this Vedic Divine Palm, or in other words, the Polo Temple, was originally related to Chixiao?
