Chapter 72 Immortal City (1)

Even though he said so on the lips, he thought in his heart, as long as it wasn't for many generations of evil fate, Jiu Xiaohan would be very incensed.

If Jiu Xiaohan had never been afraid of demons and ghosts, what he was most afraid of would be what he owed others.

Earlier, I heard from Master Wuweizi that there was an evil beast that was demonized by a weasel, and it has been stuck around its benefactor for several lifetimes.

Those who come and go, the relationship with the benefactor is getting deeper and deeper; on the contrary, it backfires.

"Okay! Little one remember it!"

So, Huangfu'an tentatively asked again: "I took you around so much just now, apart from that black shadow monster, didn't you find any other weird things?"

"In front of Little Sixth Master, I dare not lie. But, along the way, Little Sixth Master didn't ask questions, so I must not be presumptuous! The ancients said, 'Don't say anything wrong'."

"Knows the rules!"

While nodding and talking, Huangfu An was very satisfied, so he held up the Ye Mingzhu again, and began to lead Jiu Xiaohan to the depths of the natural cave.

"Let's talk about it, what do you think is strange about this place?"

Jiu Xiaohan paused and said:
"Young one, if you tell the truth and go back to Little Sixth Master. Little Sixth Master can first atone for the little one's 'speechless' crime, right?"

"Okay! You can just speak bluntly! From now on, don't talk so much useless nonsense!"

"Yes! Even though, the little one is like a clever woman who can cook without rice!"

Jiu Xiaohan sighed, and then said,

"But, alas... the way of monsters here is a long story!"

"It's already this time, why are you still hesitating in front of me? Is it interesting?"

Huangfuan urged,

"Forgive your innocence, just make a long story short."

"Yes!"

Jiu Xiaohan took half a step forward and followed Huangfu'an closely. The two walked into a long and narrow place one after the other.
"This is known as the tomb of the Emperor Anaconda. I have been walking all the way, but I haven't seen where the coffin of the Emperor Anaconda is. Then, the younger one has been speculating why the little sixth master pretends to be a man who lives in a shallow place. With such an appearance, working hard together with those condemned prisoners... Could it be that it is only for the sulfur stones in the crevices of the rocks, and the treasures of ancient relics used for burial?"

"Hmm... Interesting! Very interesting!"

Huangfu An nodded, surprised that Jiu Xiaohan was so careful,
"You go on..."

"It's strange here, not only because of these uncanny wonders and wonders, from the secret room where the cage is, through the large and winding holes in the ground, to the cave where the little one and the little sixth master are currently in, Along the way, even if the rock wall at hand, the soil layer under your feet, and the breath in your nose are simply divided into rough and smooth, hard and soft, and dry and wet, there are at least seven or eight different types when they are cross-classified. Xiao’s eyesight is indeed not good, but his ear and sense of smell are actually more useful... The places Xiao Liu took with Xiao are mostly finely crafted by craftsmen. Even if there are some stone chips that are easy to fall off, they are deliberately made to adapt to the humidity of the airway in that area. At the same time, the small ones are roughly counted, and the nodes connecting the caves should have at least One hundred and eight intersecting bends... This number, as well as the level of sophistication in the cave, are definitely not the work of grave robbers!"

Hearing Jiu Xiaohan's straightforward words, Huangfu An in front suddenly stopped in his tracks.

Just as Jiu Xiaohan was analyzing Xing's head, his little head bumped into Huangfu'an's firm back: "Ah! It hurts so much!"

Huangfu'an seemed to be smiling, but his tone was cold, and his expression became a little gloomy:
"In your opinion, if it's not a robbery, then what does this king want to do after spending several days here?"

It's really wise that people don't speak dark words, Jiu Xiaohan's little heart, in an instant, immediately came to his throat.It really fulfilled that sentence: Companion to a king is like companion to a tiger, even if you are alive, half of your body will be buried in the ground.

Is there even a question?Since it's not for "stealing treasure", is it for "keeping treasure" and "protecting treasure"?

Stealing and guarding are actually complementary to each other.If there is no stealing, there is no need to guard; however, with guarding, it will only be counterproductive and attract more thieves.

"You're a small one, so you can't guess the original intention and ambition of Little Sixth Master. As the saying goes, when you go to a big country and a city, you have your own worries, and when you are a small family, you have your own worries."

"Hehe~~~" Huangfuan listened with gusto, pursed the corners of his mouth, and slightly bent a small arc that seemed to be wrong, "Sure enough, it's a wonderful person who has his own witty words, keep talking!"

While taking small steps slowly, Jiu Xiaohan followed Huangfuan out of the narrow cliff gap:
"However, I have read in a few idle books in the past that the ancients also often had the practice of storing a large amount of materials in the tombs of the ancestors and natural deep caves. In response to unforeseen needs, such as wars and chaos, sudden disasters, seasonal changes, and so on... And, this, three times..."

"how?"

Huangfu An stroked a strand of hair on his forehead, and pinned it to his ear temples.He really wanted to hear what kind of ivory could be spit out of the puppy mouth of the "trespasser" who had some brains and some knowledge behind him.

How could Jiu Xiaohan directly dismantle the young master Huangfu'an's mind like this? !
If this little county king is not for stealing or protecting, then there are only two possibilities left...

However, which of these two possibilities, I am afraid, I will not be able to survive!

Immediately, Jiu Xiaohan secretly felt that his heart was as cold as an ice pick piercing into it again.

Since then, there have been similar records in the historical books of different regions and stages that have been recorded in historical materials. Some are detailed and detailed, and some are understated.

Jiu Xiaohan heard that some high-ranking officials and dignitaries, even princes and generals, would choose to build the tombs of themselves and their family members in other geomantic omens because they had listened too much to "magic warlocks" who seemed to have various magical powers during their lifetime. , In or under the well-preserved ancient tombs, in order to cover, protect or nourish the corpses of oneself and the family members, as well as those priceless funerary objects, with the help of the tomb airway that has been formed for many years.Some hope that the soul can continue to be in power after entering the underworld, while others hope that after death, they can ascend to heaven and become immortals and gods.

Anyway, including the rich and those in power, even ordinary people, no one would wish for a bad death and a fresh corpse!In this world, there are very few people who can see life and death as clearly as my master.

However, today's master has neither "eternal death" nor any signs of waking up and regaining consciousness, only the weak pulse and heartbeat that sometimes came and went.Jiu Xiaohan's near-term worries and long-term concerns are nothing else but to find a way to save Master—if he can't be saved in the future, he has to keep his filial piety for Master for seven years.As long as he thinks of Master, Jiu Xiaohan's heart aches for a while.Forget it... don't think about it yet.

"Hey, Jiu Xiaohan, tell me..." Seeing that Jiu Xiaohan was suddenly at a loss for words, Huangfu An hurriedly urged.

If it is said that this little county king wanted to use the feng shui pattern in the underground palace to "hide corpses" and "raise corpses", then he could only be doing it for himself, and it should have nothing to do with his father Huangfu Ruozhou of!
However, seeing that Huangfu An's age is only a few years older than Jiu Xiaohan, is it too early to rush to think about his own affairs now?
If it is said that he did not intend to allow himself to live here for a long time after death, so as to greatly increase his lifespan; then, he was planning... to "reverse" it? !
Going deeper, Jiu Xiaohan didn't dare to think too carefully.

With Huangfu'an's current unique status as the third son of the city lord of Yi'an County, he can almost compare with the honorable status and luxurious enjoyment enjoyed by those princes who are far away in famous mansions in Tiandu.

If he wanted to "rebel", he would either "rebel" against his father, or he would "rebel" against the Heavenly Capital Famous Mansion... that monarch?Oh my God!

It doesn't matter whether this Little Sixth Master is going to "hide the corpse" with him after death and ascend to heaven, or he is ready to fight against him, if Jiu Xiaohan keeps following him, he will definitely die without a place to die.

Therefore, Jiu Xiaohan could only use his wits in a hurry, and temporarily made up a thing that sounded the most unreliable, and probably had never been done before: "Here, come three... Maybe, Little Sixth Master, is going to be this The only person in the Nine Provinces and Ten Kingdoms who has done a major event that has never been seen before or since..."

Before the words fell, Jiu Xiaohan could already smell the murderous aura coming out of Huangfu'an's back. In the darkness that was swept by the night pearl, Jiu Xiaohan also saw the person walking in front. Huangfu'an already clenched his fists tightly.Presumably, once Jiu Xiaohan told the truth that had been hidden deep in Huangfu An's heart, he would never leave Jiu Xiaohan alive.

Jiu Xiaohan swallowed a mouthful of saliva, naturally he didn't want that to be his last words, so he quickly added: "Could it be that Little Sixth Master is going to build a legendary 'Digu Fairy City'?"

"Digu Immortal City?" Hearing this new term, Huangfuan immediately relaxed his fist, but he naturally couldn't admit that he had never heard of such related legends, so he pretended not to understand, and asked He said, "You little Xiu'er, have you even heard of this?"

Jiu Xiaohan's eyes lit up, and he held his breath just now to concentrate on the tension. Finally, he was able to relieve a little bit, letting go of the heart hanging in his throat: "The little one is also in the second volume of "Strange Objects" that has been lost for many years. In the book, I have read it, and I know a thing or two."

"Oh? In it, what is the general description of 'Digu Xiancheng'?"

"It's been a few years since I read it when I was young. I can't remember the exact sentences, but I only remember the outline. I don't know if the author saw it with his own eyes or imagined it. It is said that the fairy city of Digu is located in the millennium Under the snow-capped mountains, the landscape is picturesque and wonderful, comparable to the Sanqingjing on the Heavenly Palace. Palaces and pavilions, winding paths leading to secluded places, exotic flowers and plants, fairy plants and forests...all of which make people linger and forget to return, and the most wonderful What's more, the people living there are ordinary people... rural life, the door is not closed, men farm and women weave, self-sufficient!"

There are Sanqing on the top, and the city of immortals on the bottom. The reincarnation of the world is all for practice. I haven't seen all kinds of scenes in the human world. How can there be no inscriptions on the stele?
The term "Underground Immortal City" is definitely not just Jiu Xiaohan's unfounded and nonsense.

However, when he was young at the time, in the Library Pavilion of Qingxinguan, Jiu Xiaohan had indeed seen a piece of oracle bone fragments with unknown origins and dynasties that could not be verified. It can completely translate all the odd-shaped characters engraved on the oracle bone fragment.

Through the master's few words based on those few places, plus Jiu Xiaohan's own understanding and understanding of the content, there is a rough prototype of such a so-called "immortal city".

Prior to this, Jiu Xiaohan hadn't thought carefully about the specific scene of the vague "immortal city" that only appeared on a fragment of an oracle bone of unknown origin.

If not, just now Huangfuan repeatedly questioned, Jiu Xiaohan even a little bit forgot about the oracle bone fragment.

Later, it seemed that the master entrusted the part of the untranslated text on the fragment to Wu Yan, the seventeenth disciple, to complete.Wu Yan was introverted and loved to study, and he had extensive knowledge of many lost ancient dictionaries.However, as for whether Wu Yan has completely translated the entire content later on, Jiu Xiaohan does not know...

Huangfu'an was shocked by the breathtaking and magnificent spectacle that Jiu Xiaohan described.Just listening to it, he immediately felt that that world was simply an unimaginable and almost impossible illusion!
Although the Sanqing Realm on the Heavenly Palace is only spread in the human race's teahouse scripts and folk operas, Huangfu'an always believes that the world they live in is just a multi-faceted cycle of life. It's nothing more than the situation where I can't fight against the ill-fated fate.In the vastness of the world and the vastness of the world, how can it be possible that only a kind of wisdom like the human race survives alone?

The more interested he was in the "Underground Immortal City", the more inexplicably he felt a little turmoil in Huangfu'an's heart.If so, in his lifetime, he can witness the scenery of the ancient ruins of the "underground fairy city" with his own eyes, which is also commendable!

"But, Little Sixth Master... This... This, I'm afraid, cannot be done overnight..."

Jiu Xiaohan secretly sighed in his heart, this little county king is not only moody, but also thinks about what happens when he comes out,

"What's more, the relevant written records have long been lost and disappeared!"
