Holy Bone

Chapter 242

Out of an abundance of caution.

When everyone goes down to the underground palace again.

In addition to extinguishing the torches to prevent the temperature in the underground palace from rising abnormally.

Also deliberately keep the team distance.

In order to avoid the body temperature of people getting together, it will also cause the temperature of the underground palace to become unbalanced and cause accidents.

As the saying goes, there is no big mistake in being careful.

No one wants to be the next chicken with its clothes burned off or roasted to a crispy finish.

At this time, the formation of the team is to cut the sword and walk at the front, Jin'an is behind, then the captain, the old Taoist priest, the country witch, the mourner brother who was injured, his clothes were burned, and only a pair of trousers were left, and the brother in charge There are three eminent monks of Bailong Temple in the back of the hall.

each of them.

They are all standing some distance apart.

Then carefully walk through the treacherous and immobile green pottery figurines in the underground palace, and try to walk to the place with a large gap, keeping a safe distance.

Since Chi Jian went to the tomb, his performance of various abilities in the tomb along the way has been unanimously affirmed and trusted by everyone, so he was allowed to go ahead and lead the way for everyone.

If you encounter any situation.

Cutting the sword can also warn the team in time.

Fortunately, there are those fish oil ointment lamps in the underground palace for lighting, so there is no need to worry about the black lamp blinding the fire and accidentally knocking down the green pottery figurines, so I passed through the green pottery figurines along the way without incident.

The Lord of the Teng Kingdom planned so hard to set up fish oil ointment lamps in the underground palace at the beginning. His purpose was to keep the air temperature in the underground palace in a balance, just reaching the critical point of the burning of the candle.

However, once people see through these ingenious tricks, the fish oil ointment lights in the underground palace will become people who enter the tomb and act as torches for people to illuminate.

This can be regarded as a drink and a peck, and you are bound in a cocoon.

"This is called good and evil will be rewarded, and the way of heaven is reincarnation. If you don't believe me, look up and see who will be spared. The Lord of Teng Kingdom has done so many things that hurt the sky, and even God can't see it. People, but in the end they help outsiders to pass through the underground palace, and they deserve to have his tomb stolen and his coffin dug." The old Taoist walked in the procession and let out a pissed angrily.

The old Taoist hated evil the most.

I can't stand these outrageous acts.

No wonder he was so angry.

Along the way, have they experienced too many strange and strange things? What kind of strange and strange things are not sacrificing living people to guard the mausoleum of the Lord of the Teng Kingdom, and they will be trapped underground forever, without peace. The chance of reincarnation was brutally deprived.

"Although our soldiers and horses have never believed in fate, and only believe that the sword in our hands and the comrades behind us can lead us to a way out, but this does not prevent me from expressing my deep agreement with Chen Daochang's words. Chen Daochang's words are very correct , Good and evil will be rewarded in the end, the way of heaven is like reincarnation..."

General Du Wei, who was walking in front of the old Taoist priest, said in a deep voice: "The Lord of Teng Kingdom was cruel and inhumane in his lifetime. If such a brutal tyrant is really brought back from the dead on Huangquan Road, it will be bloodshed. The people are struggling to live, and there will be many more homeless corpses in this world. Whether it is public or private, I don't want the Teng Kingdom Lord to jump out of the coffin lid after death and cause harm to the world!"

"General Duwei's words, I also like to hear the old way."

The old Taoist twirled the little goat's beard on his chin, and nodded in agreement as if he had found a confidant: "Whether this Teng Kingdom Lord is a real dragon reincarnated, or some monster with three heads and six arms, is this Teng Kingdom Lord good?" It's easy to die, how can we let him jump out of the coffin and cause harm to the world."

"Today, if we can get rid of the Teng Kingdom's lord, it will be a great merit. It can also be regarded as avenging blood for countless dead souls buried in this tomb, and fulfilling a wish for the ancients of thousands of years, so that they can rest in peace. Into the earth to sleep forever."

The scope of this underground palace is very large.

In addition, along the way, we have to bypass those green pottery figurines from time to time, and stay as far away as possible.

Therefore, a group of ten people walked for two or three sticks of incense before they finally walked out of the underground palace safely. After leaving the underground palace, everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

Along the way, apart from seeing the largest number of green pottery figurines with different faces, I also saw the most dragon pillars. Each of those dragon pillars is as huge as a building tree, and the dragon pillars are majestic with angry eyes. , supporting the entire underground palace building.

Jin'an roughly counted, there are as many as 36 dragon pillars, and each giant wooden dragon pillar is a precious thousand-year-old wood carving in the world, and it takes several people to embrace it.

"It is said that this mausoleum was built with reference to the Yangzhai. The more prosperous and wealthy a person is, the more they talk about 'death is like life' after death. There are so many giant wooden dragon pillars in this underground palace. It seems that the Teng Kingdom Lord He really took himself as the reincarnation of a real dragon."

The old Taoist snorted, expressing his contempt for the Lord of Teng Kingdom.

If the Lord of the Teng Kingdom is really the reincarnation of a real dragon, then the Lord of the Teng Kingdom is an evil dragon.

And today they are the warriors who came to slay the evil dragon.

After the ten people passed through the underground palace safely, they found that their vision suddenly widened, and there was actually another universe behind the underground palace. This was a large karst cave.

With the torch in hand alone, it can't reach the end at once.

I don't know how high the sky is.

How far are the sides.

Jin'an roughly estimated that the area of ​​this karst cave would not be smaller than the area of ​​the false tomb above their heads.

Arriving at the new place, the old Taoist took out his yin-yang compass again, wanting to see if the yin-yang compass could be used normally in this place, so as to distinguish the direction under the cave.

As a result, the old Taoist muttered: "This cave is even more evil than the outside, and the compass is spinning like crazy. There must be a large lodestone vein in this cave, and the magnet interference is more serious than outside."

The old Taoist walked back and forth a few steps in the southeast and northwest, and finally shook his head.

Hearing this, Jin An glanced curiously at the compass in the hands of the old Taoist priest. The pointer on the compass was indeed crazy, spinning wildly, spinning counterclockwise quickly for a while, and spinning clockwise for a while.

The magnetic field is very chaotic here.

The compass is completely useless here.

Seeing that the yin-yang compass was still out of order in the cave, the old Taoist shook his head, put away the compass, carefully looked at the dark road under his feet, and followed everyone into the cave.

And just as Jin An and the others walked out in the dark in the cave, they suddenly heard the sound of running water.

wow wow wow-

In the darkness, there was the sound of running water flowing. Jin An and the others, holding torches in their hands, turned their heads to find out where the sound of running water came from.

Where there is running water, there is a way out.

Perhaps this living water is the way for them to get out of the mausoleum next.

"It seems to be coming from the front left of us..."

someone said.

really.

Not long after they walked, they saw a water pool. Just as they were looking for the source of the water pool, suddenly, 咴咴咴, in the dark and empty cave, the cry of a horse came out.

This was originally an ancient tomb.

The surrounding area was empty, dark, and quiet, and the torches couldn't illuminate very far. People's nerves were always tense, and the sudden sound of the horse suddenly made people's goosebumps explode.

"Where is the sound of the horse?"

"In this mausoleum thousands of years ago, people are all rotten and turned into bones. How can there be live horses?"

The old Taoist held up the torch in his hand and turned around sharply to shine it. The sound of the horse's cry came from the direction of the water.

blah blah-

blah blah-

In the empty, pitch-black cave, the sound of horses screaming and the sound of horseshoes walking unexpectedly began to be heard.

And the sound of horseshoes isn't just from a single foal.

It was the sound of horseshoes from many foals.

clatter--

Da da--

The sound of horseshoes approaching, slapping, slapping, and the sound of the whip slapping on the flesh and blood of the horse, the sound of the wheels, and the painful panting of the horse carrying a heavy load as it struggled forward.

"Ok?"

Jin An's face suddenly froze.

The old Taoist priest standing beside him opened his mouth wide in astonishment, staring at the scene in front of him in astonishment.

Under this cave, a large number of soldiers, waving whips, are lashing the backs of pack horses. The pack horses on the ground are bloodied, their skins are ripped apart, and they are struggling to drag the carriages behind them. Stones, stakes, ironwork...

Behind the carriage, there were many naked slaves who had been tortured until they were skinny, pushing the carriage along the rugged mountain road behind the carriage.

Every time the overseer soldiers whipped them, the bodies of these slaves trembled in pain, leaving deep bloodstains on their bodies, and were bruised all over by the whip.

The slaves' eyes were numb.

face oppression.

Don't dare to resist at all.

Numb, doing heavy hard work repeatedly.

Some soldiers were beaten to death with leather whips because they were weak and unable to stand up after falling to the ground.

Someone was seriously ill, sucked a lot of dust underground, got tuberculosis and coughed up blood, just because the movement of moving the stone was a step slow, and finally was stabbed through the neck by a soldier like a pig and sheep, and the numbed eyes gradually lost their luster.

He stared at Jin An and the others with reluctance.

As for the soldiers who acted as supervisors, everyone wore snake scale armor and snake helmets, and their whole bodies were covered in black armor.

The Teng Kingdom worships snakes and dragons.

Seeing the armor and attire of these soldiers, Jin An's first thought was that these soldiers were soldiers from the Teng Kingdom.

However, the productivity of ironware in this era is backward, let alone the well-equipped fine iron armor. The soldiers here all have a pair of fine iron armor. At first glance, they are elite soldiers. Such excellent equipment.

This is a huge mausoleum construction project.

In the huge karst cave, you can see busy people everywhere, there are slaves digging rocks, craftsmen grinding stones, and pack horses and mules carrying heavy loads on the rugged mountain road. ...

No less than a thousand emaciated slaves were building a very large emperor's tomb, building a large building, and one after another died of exhaustion, never to wake up again.

Every brick in this mausoleum is stained with human blood.

Under every foot of the road, there is a human skeleton buried.

In ancient times, construction capabilities were very backward, and the excavation and construction of a huge mausoleum in the mountains were all filled with human lives!

at this time.

A few bruised pack horses dragged the carriage past Jin An and the others, and the slaves following behind the carriage and pushing the cart seemed not to have noticed Jin An and the others, their eyes numb and empty as they passed by.

At this moment, the soldiers who were still beating the pack horses and slaves just now looked sharply at Jin An and the others as if they had noticed something.

Under the ice-cold snake-like helmet, only a pair of murderous cold gazes were revealed. The soldier was dressed in armor and approached with heavy steps.

This scene made the old Taoist priest and the mourner tense all their muscles and their faces tensed.

"What the hell is going on with these people?"

"The artisans, slaves, and soldiers who should have died thousands of years ago... are still alive in the underground tombs! Could it be that the Lord of Teng Kingdom really found the secret method of resurrection from the dead, crossed the Huangquan Road for thousands of years, and led him to conquer the world? Yin soldiers, died and resurrected from Huangquan Road together? We fell into the lair of Yin soldiers and were dumped!"

The old Taoist said nervously.

"We have been found!"

"You Teng soldiers are coming towards us!"

"General Duwei, brother, what should we do? How about killing them!"

The younger brother of the mourner, the black robe, shouted anxiously.

At this time, the soldier from the Teng Kingdom thousands of years ago was getting closer and closer. When the soldiers were fighting, the soldier from the Teng Kingdom thousands of years ago suddenly stopped and saluted Jin An and the others.

"General, you are here!"

The soldier's sudden salute startled the mourners and the three monks of Bailong Temple who were about to fight their way out.

Everyone subconsciously turned their heads to look at the captain next to him.

The Teng soldiers saluted in the direction of the captain...

At this time, the captain frowned tightly.

Ok?
wrong!

The soldier was not saluting the captain, but a general who appeared behind the captain at some point.

The general was tall and majestic, also wearing snake scale armor and a snake helmet. These Tengguo pro-guards all like to hide themselves in the cold and hideous armor, and they are all cold-blooded butchers who kill people like hemp.

The moment the cold-blooded butcher general looked over, his eyes met, and Jin An couldn't help but draw his sword to fight the enemy.

He has an illusion.

The cold-blooded butcher general seemed to have spotted him and was staring at him.

In the end, Jin An resisted the urge to draw his sword right away, because he realized that the cold and emotionless gaze of the cold-blooded butcher general was not looking at him, but at the slaves behind him who were building a huge mausoleum.

Afterwards, the general went deep into the cave with the troops behind him. Behind the team, there was a coffin on a horse-drawn cart. I don't know if that coffin contained the body of the Lord of Teng Kingdom?
Faced with a strange scene that cannot be explained clearly.

There was a moment of silence in the team.

And the surrounding slaves and overseers are still continuing to build this unfinished mausoleum thousands of years ago.

As the general Teng Guo disappeared into the depths of the cave with his coffin, suddenly, his eyes fell silent.

Just now there were still people shouting, but the scene of the mausoleum being built thousands of years ago has all disappeared.

In front of Jin An and the others, there was still the dark, dead cave.

Where are there any slaves, Teng Guo soldiers?

"This……"

"What exactly is going on?"

At this time, everyone present was stunned, everyone looked at each other, you looked at me, I looked at you, they were all so stunned that they couldn't speak.

"Ghost covering eyes?"

"Illusion?"

"But if the hallucinations seen by ghosts cover their eyes, why does it only appear for a short moment and then disappear immediately?"

For a while, everyone held their breath and didn't dare to act rashly. This cave is really fucking evil.

At this time, only one person was lost in thought.

Jin An raised his head and looked around.

"The images we saw just now may not be hallucinations, nor are they blinded by ghosts. Of course, they are not some brutal soldiers from Teng Kingdom thousands of years ago who came back to life from the dead on Huangquan Road. Old Daoist, do you still remember when you first entered the cave? I said that the influence of the magnet in this cave is stronger than that of the outside world..."

"The picture we saw just now should be a phenomenon of magnetism..."

"The special magnetic field in this cave forms a closed magnetite field in a closed space isolated from the world. This magnetite field records the pictures and sounds of the construction of the mausoleum thousands of years ago, and has been preserved in the closed field to this day. ..."
