Holy Bone

Chapter 374

At this time, the underground palace was completely chaotic, the flood waters knocked down buildings, and the big waves slapped on the rock walls, stirring up even bigger undercurrents.

A rock wall in the left hall collapsed, and the turbid waves poured in, directly shooting the five people in the left hall into the underground river behind the wall, avoiding the danger of being washed into the depths of the underground palace by the turbulent water waves.

There are many places in this underground palace that are bottomless abysses. If they are really driven to the depths by the waves, they will definitely end up falling into the abyss and being smashed to pieces.

Just when several people were rushed into the underground river, plop, there was a person hiding in a dark shadow on the roof of the Xuan Palace, and that person followed Jin An and the others and was sucked into the underground river.

"Little brother, someone has been hiding on the beam of the mysterious palace, and someone followed us into the water!" The old Taoist exclaimed in the water.

"Old man, be careful!" Jin An saw that several sarcophagi were also washed into the underground river by the flood, and driven by the current, they rushed towards them quickly.

Fortunately, Jin An reminded him in time, and the old Taoist passed by those sarcophagi dangerously.

Thanks to the imperial water talisman, they can feel like fish in water underwater, not afraid of the turbulent water waves and undercurrents of the underground river.

The three of them didn't need to deliberately control the direction, they were rushed forward by the turbulent water flow, and the water flowed down. As long as they followed the underground river, they would definitely be able to escape from the outside world.

Although a lot of sundries rushed in along the way, the three of them avoided those underwater sundries without any danger, and the journey went smoothly.

But the three of them never gave up their vigilance, they were always vigilant about the identity of the mysterious person behind them, who was hiding in the mysterious palace without being discovered by them?
This person is either Xiao Ziming who is good at earth escape;

Or there was someone else who arrived at Xuan Palace before them.

Thinking of arriving at the Xuan Palace before them, Jin An thought of the mysterious person who had helped them in the deep pit of the bones of heaven and earth. Could it be the same person?

Why has the other party refused to show up?
At this time, the water flow of the underground river became more and more turbulent, indicating that the water flow formed a drop and was going down.

"Little brother, I didn't expect that we escaped from the underground river twice when we went to the tomb, but this time we are much more relaxed than when we were in the Dragon King's tomb, thanks to the miraculous achievements of these water talismans."

"This imperial water talisman is far more powerful than the old daoist I drew for you little brother. If I had this imperial water talisman earlier, even a landlubber like me, an old Taoist from all over the world, would be able to go there."

The old Taoist clicked his tongue in amazement and looked at the Imperial Water Talisman in his hand, treating it as a treasure.

Relying on the protection of the water talisman on his body, the old Taoist was still chattering: "Little brother, such a powerful water talisman, is it because the beautiful brother and sister know that you are going to enter the cave and send it to you? Brother and sister are so kind to you, little brother. I also gave away the Five Thunder Slaying Evil Talisman, and the Six Ding Liujia Talisman, and this time I sent several Chishui Talismans, which are much better than those yellow Talismans drawn by the old Taoist me."

"...It's just that the imperial water talisman of the beautiful brother and sister looks familiar?" The old Taoist gasped in surprise.

"Big beautiful brother and sister draw spells like my old handwriting?"

Uh.

A few black lines hung from the corners of Jin An's forehead.

The god damn beautiful younger siblings are like old-fashioned me.

This also made him feel that the old Taoist was deliberately taking advantage of him no matter how he answered the conversation.

Jin An hurried on the road in a sullen and angry way, ignoring the old Taoist who was chattering along the way. The old Taoist turned his head and asked Qi Jian curiously, but Qi Jian was more dull and boring than Jin An, and was tired of being pestered by the old Taoist all the way. Cutting the sword finally took a look at the old Taoist priest.

"Third Junior Brother, you said that Master Mistress is ugly."

Old Taoist: "?"

Looking at the old Taoist priest and Jianjian who were arguing in front of him and didn't take him as a master at all, Jin An felt that it was necessary to warn his two apprentices, let them learn what it means to respect a teacher and respect the way. You are not married yet, where is the mistress!
But after thinking about it later, the old Taoist's mouth must not be idle, and now he ran to pester and cut the sword, his ears were rarely quiet, if he suffered a small loss, he could get quiet ears, this is a good deal.

The three of them walked underwater as if they were walking on level ground, like the true Lord Shui De in the myth, with a relaxed face. At this time, several fork caves appeared in front of them. The water gushes out.

Those caves seem to be connected to the underground palace.

The river water poured into the underground palace is flowing out from here again, and re-merges into the underground river.

The bubbles in the cave are churning faster and faster, as if the water flow has accelerated a lot, because the environment of the underground river is claustrophobic, there is not enough vision and lighting, and it is impossible to see the environment inside the cave clearly. When the three of them just arrived at the entrance of the cave, they were caught off guard. , a large number of white figures swam quickly with the fierce current.

The huge impact force scattered the three of them at once.

It was only at this time that I finally saw that those white figures were all stone figurines, the densely packed stone figurines that filled the entire riverbed in the underground river of Xiatingxuan Palace.

Jin An's complexion changed.

Once these stone figurines got out of trouble, they all came to the door with resentment.

But upon closer inspection, those stone figurines still kept their postures still. They did not swim out by themselves, but were washed out by the water pouring into the underground palace.

Just as he was about to breathe a sigh of relief, he found that after being dispersed in such a way, one person was missing from the team, and the old Taoist priest was gone. With the help of the divine light of the divine treasure underwater, he searched calmly and finally found the old Taoist priest.

He saw countless stone figurines piled on the old Taoist priest, burying the old Taoist priest underwater, and the stone figurines spewing out from several caves were sinking more and more, trying to bury the old Taoist priest completely under water.

Jin An and Chi Jiangang planned to dive to rescue the old Taoist priest, but they were rushed farther and farther by the large number of stone figurines who rushed out of the cave with the current, and they were about to lose the old Taoist priest completely.

Those stone figurines were obviously dead things, just cold stone figures, but they seemed to stand in front of Jin An consciously, preventing him from saving the old Taoist priest.

When he used the imperial water talisman to control the rapid flow of water, separated the stone figurines, and rushed in the direction where the old Taoist disappeared in his memory, he saw that the old Taoist had escaped and was using the imperial water talisman to split the waterway and float up quickly.

There are too many stone figurines in the water here, and Jin An didn't have time to ask the old Taoist priest how he escaped from the predicament. The three of them used the water-avoiding ability of the imperial water talisman to escape from the water first, so as to avoid being caught by those strange stone figurines again. Wrap it up.

When they left the water area of ​​the stone figurines completely, the three of them looked back and saw that the stone figurines were all sinking after being washed out of the cave by the turbulent water due to their heavy weight.

It was as if hundreds of pale-skinned corpses were sinking into the water, a spectacular sight.

Only then did Jin An ask how the old Taoist got out of trouble: "Old Taoist, Jian Jian and I just saw you surrounded by many stone figurines and buried underwater, how did you break free from those heavy and heavy traps?" Stone people?"

The old Taoist said with lingering fear: "Little brother, it turned out that the sixth person who arrived at the Xuan Palace before us and hid on the beam of the Xuan Palace is that Zong Ren who pretended to be the coffin-bearer!"

"If Zongren hadn't rushed down to save the old Taoist just now, I would have suffered a lot from being dragged down by those stone men all the way!"

Zongren?

He rescued you?

Facing Jin An's doubts, the old Taoist said with certainty, "That's right, the Wuzhou government once hung out with the Jiang family, and almost framed us as the murdered uncle Zongren who was imprisoned."

Jin An was quite surprised by this, so he repeatedly confirmed it three times, and the old Taoist said with certainty: "Although the situation was critical just now, the old Taoist, I have an imperial water talisman to protect me, so I have been calm and not panicked, and I will never make a mistake. , I was the veteran Zongren rescued me."

"In order to save Lao Dao, he untied the wooden coffin that he had been carrying on his back. After saving Lao Dao, he hurriedly left to find his lost wooden coffin."

"Why did Zong Ren help us? It stands to reason that he is greedy and selfish. He even dared to kill his own uncle for the fragments of Luo Geng's jade plate. He is the kind of murderer who kills without batting an eyelid. It is impossible for him to be so kind to save people." Jin An faintly I felt that I had caught some important clue, but the inspiration was fleeting like an electric spark, and I didn't catch it in time.

The old Taoist also shook his head in wonder, Zong Ren rescued him, which shocked him too much, and when he reacted and wanted to ask why the other party saved him, the person had already disappeared.

Since this matter can't be figured out for the time being, Jin An intends not to think about it for now and talk about it later. The most important thing now is to escape first.

The water flow in the dark river is getting faster and faster. If the three of them hadn't been for the water-repelling talisman, they would have been dispersed in the rapid flow of countless undercurrents, just like Xu Anping and Monk Qianshi, I didn't meet them all the way.

No one knows how far this underground river is, and as the temperature of the underground river drops suddenly, it suddenly.

The Imperial Water Talismans on the three of them started to burn, and the burning speed was still accelerating. After dozens of breaths of effort, the Imperial Water Talismans on the old Taoist priest and Chijian burned completely once.

The ashes from the burning yellow talisman fell off his body.

He was swept away by the swift current.

If Jin An hadn't reacted quickly and grabbed the wrists of the two in time, the old Taoist priest and Jian Jian would have been washed away by the current.

Jin An's complexion changed, and he quickly realized: "The imperial water talisman can suppress evil spirits and evil spirits in the water, and the imperial water talisman burns faster. We have already left the blessed land of five-color soil and the blessing of five-color soil! Now we are in Those sinister rivers that can fall into the human body, three souls and seven souls!"

As if to verify Jin An's words, as the three of them rushed out of a small waterfall in a bare mountain stream, their vision suddenly widened.

dark clouds.

rainstorm.

There are countless ruins on the shore.

And, an ancient corpse wearing a gold-threaded jade robe, who couldn't tell whether it was a man or a woman, stared in astonishment at the three people who suddenly rushed out of the mountain waterfall.

Especially when he saw a familiar figure dressed in jewels.

Under the jade robe with only a pair of eyes exposed, she was absent-minded for a long time before she could react.

As soon as he got out of the underground river, Jin An found that it was already dawn outside, but before he could look around, he realized that the depletion rate of the imperial water talisman on him was accelerated because he brought two more people with him.

The three had not swam ashore in time.

The three imperial water talismans on his body burned to ashes almost instantly.

After the imperial water talisman was burned, the dark river began to consume the divine treasures on their bodies, and the divine treasures on the three of them began to overflow with divine light, protecting the three from being eroded by the gradually cold and icy yin energy in the dark river Yang fire.

The divine treasures are consumed very quickly. The divine treasures that can withstand the rain from the sky cannot last long in the Yinshui River, and the divine light is dimming at a speed visible to the naked eye.

Fortunately, the three of them successfully landed in the end and were out of danger safely.

After landing on the shore, Jin An and the stunned gold-threaded jade-clothed ancient corpse on the shore looked at each other in dismay. Behind us, are you lost?"
