Chapter 485: Female Corpse in the Ice Lake
Mei Zhu was taken away by Candle Jiuyin. The four of us in the Dao Sect naturally want to go to the rescue, but their motives are different, Ye Aofeng cares about the four ancient swords behind Mei Zhu, Murong Chasing Feng may be out of sympathy for the ravages that Mei Zhu may suffer, the motive of the King Kong Cannon is the simplest, that is, to save people in order to save people, I have the psychology of the three of them, in addition to this, I have another motive, that is, I have seen Mei Zhu's breath several times before, and found that she is always a perfect body, which makes me puzzled, I naturally don't care if she is a perfect body, what makes me doubt is whether her perfect body is related to Lin Yicheng's trip to the imperial tomb。
Since Ye Aofeng and Murong Chasing Feng went down before us, King Kong Cannon and I didn't dare to delay too much, and quickly jumped down the valley and fell rapidly.
As I had expected, the valley was in a figure-eight shape, with more space going down, and the stone walls on the left and right sides of the valley were mottled and uneven, with obvious traces of rain erosion and weathering, and there was no sign of artificial excavation, indicating that this valley was an open-air moat long ago, and existed before the construction of the imperial tomb.
Falling is much simpler than jumping, so the two of them quickly fell into the black fog they saw before, the black fog was filled with a disgusting fishy smell, and the visibility in the fog layer was extremely poor, but fortunately, the range of the black fog was only more than ten zhang, and after passing through the black fog of more than ten zhang, King Kong Cannon and I finally found the candle Jiuyin that had fallen back to the bottom.
Two miles below the black fog is the valley bottom, what I didn't expect is that the valley bottom is not as dark and smelly as I imagined before, there are no disorderly rocks and no rancid black water, but a frozen lake, the lake is wide in front and narrow in the back, very similar to the comma in Chinese, because the shape is not standardized, so it is impossible to calculate the specific area, but the visual estimate should be more than three times larger than the above level.
If we were surprised to find the frozen lake in a deep valley six or seven miles above the ground, then the thousands of ** female corpses tied to the stone pillars around the lake made me and King Kong Cannon stunned, stunned was just the first reaction, and then we were terrified, because we could clearly observe that the souls of those female corpses were still sealed in the corpses, and to some extent they were still "alive".
As we all know, after death, the soul will leave the body, and the soul will rot when it leaves the body, these female corpses are obviously bound here by people with soul fixing spells, in order to keep their corpses alive, as for what purpose it is self-evident, although this candle Jiuyin is strong but has a low IQ, it is naturally useless to deal with the coercion of this kind of creature, only to lure, these naked female corpses are artificially bound here, in order to provide this candle Jiuyin with its venting beast desire.
As for why the builder of the mechanism chose to use women to cast spells instead of other female animals, I think there should be the following two reasons, one is that the status of women in ancient times was very low, and it was not uncommon for living people to be buried. The second is that some spells are only effective for humans, such as this soul-fixing spell, if the lead sow comes, the caster may not necessarily find the right place to place the needle.
In addition, it is not surprising to find an icy lake here, because it is common sense that the closer you get to the core, the higher the temperature should be. So I'm guessing that the reason for the ice here is probably that something magical has been placed to lower the temperature. The frozen surface of the lake serves two purposes, one is to make the cold-loving species like Candle Jiuyin feel comfortable, and the other is to keep the female corpses tied to the lake semi-frozen, so that they do not give birth to strange mongrels.
A large number of female corpses stand around the lake like a fence, the scene is extremely strange, although I have not yet fallen to the ice at the moment, but I can already see the appearance of many female corpses, those female corpses are not very old, many have not yet fully developed, although their faces have been stiff, but it is not difficult to see that they were all beautiful women back then, in addition, although they do not have any clothes on their bodies, but according to the hairstyle on their heads, they should all be palace maids in the Qin period.
Because the soul is sealed in the body, they can still clearly feel what is happening in the outside world, but unfortunately they have lost control of their bodies, and they can't even do the basic eye rolling, I still judge that they are conscious by the sharp fluctuations in the breath on their heads, maybe from this point of view it is not appropriate to call them female corpses, but I still want to call them female corpses, because I prefer that they are dead.
Although I deeply sympathized with the plight of these women, I didn't help them after I fell, but stepped on the ice and quickly rushed towards Candle Jiuyin. Candle Jiuyin has coiled up at this moment, and the snake tail and Mei Zhu have been encircled by it, and there is no way to observe the specific situation of Mei Zhu, but you can imagine what is happening at this moment in the area that we can't observe.
Although Candle Jiuyin coiled up, but the huge head was still four or five hundred meters above the ice, this height was only able to reach me in a vertical way, and the three of them could only attack from the ground, but unfortunately our weapons at the moment were not enough to cut through Candle Jiuyin's huge and tough scale armor, and the angry Vajra cannon screamed wildly, even Minghui's ancestors had greeted the eight generations, the reason why he scolded Minghui was nothing more than to blame Minghui for losing his Minghong knife, if he had Minghong knife in his hand at this moment, let alone Candle Jiuyin, even Candle Jiuyang had already been hacked to death by him。
My mood at the moment is also very anxious, in order to fear that I will die in the imperial mausoleum, I sent the cadre to the Maoshan faction in advance, if I have a cadre in hand at this moment, Candle Jiuyin will not dare to be so presumptuous. In addition, although King Kong Cannon scolded Minghui, it sounded more uncomfortable to me than scolding myself, and if it weren't for me, he wouldn't have lost Minghong Sword. Thinking about it like this, it is inevitable that Wang Yanpei will be angry, I wasted all my strength to save her from the yin, this guy actually shrank back in self-righteousness, although her motive is for my good, but I don't appreciate it, if you are really good to me, you should listen to me, why make your own opinions. Thinking of it later, he even secretly sneered at the fact that he and Bai Jiuyu had a man and a woman, don't you like to make your own claims, you gave me up to others, love is possession, I let you let go, I let you let go......
Originally, I was not the opponent of Candle Jiuyin, and the distracting thoughts in my mind were in danger several times, and the most dangerous one was sucked by Candle Jiuyin to a foot in front of Shekou, and it was difficult to get rid of the huge suction force of Shekou, so I had no choice but to take risks, speed up the speed of rushing forward, and at the moment of entering Shekou, I used the illusion trick to slip out of the corner of his mouth, and I was shocked into a cold sweat, and I didn't dare to think about it anymore.
