Chapter 120: Tomb of the Candle Dragon

This axe went down, and directly cut open the braincase of the big snake, and the brain splattered, and the big snake struggled for a while before it gradually lost its stop. After solving the big snake, the burden in the heart of the Dao body was also put down.

At this time, Qi Haoyuan escaped from the water in the center of the tomb, and the Dao body returned to his body very consciously. He looked at the big snake on the ground, and still sighed a little in his heart, "TMD is too big! ”

After carefully examining the big snake again and confirming that it was truly dead, Qi Haoyuan turned his attention to the tomb. Obviously, this is just one of the burial chambers of this ancient tomb. The people who built this tomb did not leave any traces of the tomb in this chamber, nor did they have any arrangements.

According to calculations, the height at which he is now should be below the surface and below the bottom of the deep stream. He had thought before that Boshan and Zhongshan must be related to the ancient tomb, but the black hole leading to Boshan seemed to have nothing to do with Zhongshan, but now it seems that it should not be like that. This tomb must be very large, and there is a passage underground to enter Nakayama.

This big snake hides in the ancient tomb, and occasionally goes out to forage for food, and launches an active attack on the people who enter the ancient tomb, and its identity is self-evident, it must be the tomb guarding beast! To be able to make such a big project, and the big snake to guard the tomb, the owner of this ancient tomb must not be so simple.

Qi Haoyuan made a simple analysis, and with his years of archaeological experience, he quickly found a very hidden secret door. He cautiously walked into the secret door with his axe, and behind this secret door was a straight tomb passage. Every few steps he took, the lanterns placed in the stone walls on both sides of the tomb lit up on their own, illuminating the tomb as if it were day.

The stone walls of the tomb are carved with various stone paintings, although I don't know how many years ago, the pictures are still clear, and even the color pigments have not faded.

Qi Haoyuan looked at the stone painting and was quickly attracted by the content of the picture. The stone paintings are not depicted as art, but as realistic records of the construction of this ancient tomb. It must have been carved at the same time as the construction of the tomb, and it is a long time ago.

The craftsmen who depict these stone paintings are not masterful, but the narrative is a great way to tell a story from a long time ago. In a beautiful land, there is a group of hard-working people, who plough at sunrise and rest at sunset, living a life of abundant food and clothing.

However, on a seemingly ordinary sunny day, a burning meteorite suddenly flew from the sky, and the meteorite burned for three whole months, burning the place red.

When the flames were extinguished, the meteorite burned out, leaving only a dying candle dragon. Although the candle dragon still has a faint breath, it is essentially dead.

After this out-of-the-sky fire, all life in this land was burned black, homes were gone, trees were gone, farmland was gone. Black replaces everything, even if you dig a thousand feet into the ground, all the earth and stone are black.

The dragon is a sacred object, a symbol of the Supreme, and the dragon descends from the sky, which is bound to startle a Lang flower and cause a lot of commotion. Many people thought that the dragon was angry and brought heavenly fire to burn the earth, so people sacrificed to the sky and prayed for blessings, and asked the Taoist to do it.

At this time, there was a big hand Taoist man, and it can be seen from the stone paintings that the Taoist hands are much more than average. The people of Otedo use the Tao method to rejuvenate the greenery of this land. He had people build a mausoleum for the Candle Dragon, and a huge project began, and it was at this time that the Candle Dragon was buried at the foot of the Mountain.

And the big snake in the ancient tomb was just a small snake no more than the thickness of a little finger at that time, and it was often wrapped around the arm of the Great Brother, and it was left in the ancient tomb and became the tomb keeper of the Candle Dragon Tomb!

"I see. Qi Haoyuan nodded.

Through the description of the stone paintings, he generally understood the beginning and end of this matter. This ancient tomb is the candle dragon that fell from the sky, according to the description of the stone painting, the body of the candle dragon lies under the Bozhong Mountain.

The path beneath his feet began to slope downward, gradually turning into a staircase, and after walking for a long time with a stick of incense, the road ahead was blocked by a huge stone door.

Qi Haoyuan put his hand against the stone door and tried the weight, but it was very heavy and did not push it. He didn't push hard, after all, this is an ancient tomb, and although the stone painting doesn't mention dangers such as traps, it is necessary to be careful.

In his experience, similar stone doors are cleverly designed, and if you touch the mechanism, the stone door will open automatically. And usually, the trap button doesn't get too far away.

It didn't take much work, he saw a hemispherical device similar to a wide-angle camera in the lower left corner of the stone door, he rotated it slightly, the sound of "boom" sounded, the stone door slowly opened, and suddenly, a burst of ancient atmosphere permeated the air. He knew now that the tomb was older than he had imagined. The reason why it is impossible to judge from the outside is that one is soaked in water, and the other is that the big snake comes in and out from time to time, destroying the ancient atmosphere.

The stone door opened, Qi Haoyuan's eyes looked inside, and the whole person was stunned for a moment, and he couldn't help but sigh in his mouth, "This is the dragon!"

He had imagined what a dragon would look like, but facing a real dragon was still beyond his psychological tolerance. The stone door was not open at the bottom of the tomb, but above, and the place where he was standing was the top of the huge tomb, with an unobstructed view of the entire dragon's body, especially the huge dragon head facing him.

If the big snake I saw before was shocking enough, then in front of this dragon, the big snake was no different from the earthworm at all. This tomb is too big, Qi Haoyuan estimates that the length of Bozhong Mountain may add up to about the same as this.

It is unbelievable that the people who built this ancient tomb were ordinary villagers, and they were able to do this. There is a saying that the master is in the people, and there is really nothing wrong with it.

The candle dragon in front of him was several miles long, and the tall dragon head alone was probably as big as a small house. From a distance, it is not much different from a snake, but a closer look reveals that it has dragon feet, which snakes do not have.

"Is it really dead?" Qi Haoyuan muttered to himself, a little incredulous.

The tomb is very old and hidden under a hill that does not look amazing, so it has been overlooked. And the stone painting mentions that the dragon died at that time, so it should have been dead for thousands or tens of thousands of years, and it should have been turned into a pile of skeletons.

But the candle dragon in front of him was lifelike, exuding a breath of nothingness all over his body, the dragon body did not show the slightest sign of decay, the dragon scales were still shining and full of vitality, it was hard to imagine that it was dead.
