Vol 2 Chapter 63: Tomb of the Demons

   torches illuminate the long passage, and the space is unexpectedly large. The width on both sides can accommodate four or five people, but the height is nearly ten meters above and below. The road they walked is like the main trunk, with forks extending on both sides, and each of them has twists and turns, which is very difficult to walk.

   They raised the torch, and the fire light reflected on the walls on both sides, and they were painted with murals with colorful paint.

   The pictures are mostly divided into six parts, with landscapes as the background. Most of the paintings are home life, tree entertainment, poetry girls, and the like. The environmental figures are happy and seem very leisurely.

   "There is obviously air here, but these murals are not oxidized at all..." Xiao Youyu looked at the patterns closely, "Maybe, these paints are also spiritual things."

   Compared to him, Wu Hao and Yuan Qingqing are much more cautious. They just stood behind with torches and watched. After a while, Yuan Qingqing spoke suddenly.

   "This... seems to be a six-screen flower and bird painting." She looked at the painting and said, "This kind of painting is mostly seen in the late Tang Dynasty. It is used by high-ranking officials to show their power. The number of these ladies represents their official position."

   "Huh? I really don't know about this." Xiao Youyu turned around, "What are you going to say specifically?"

  Wu Hao was surprised on the side: "Aren't you the top pick in the college entrance examination?"

   "I'm academic..."

   "When I was learning watercolor before, I saw a display like this." Yuan Qingqing said, but the expression on his face sank. "The teacher said that this kind of murals are mostly used in...tombs."

   A gust of cloudy wind blew, the light from the torch in his hand flickered a few times, and the sound in the room stopped abruptly.

   "That is to say, we are now in a... mausoleum?" After a long time, Wu Hao spoke with some difficulty.

"Looking at the surrounding environment, it is really possible." Xiao Youyu held his jaw, "We were brought here by cultural relics unearthed in the tomb... Maybe this is what the unearthed tomb really looks like. Just like our school looks like. It's a barren mountain, but the essence is completely different."

   With these clues, he has faintly guessed the definition of "Blessed Land". The three of them didn't communicate for a while, they just walked around the main road and roughly figured out the structure of this place.

   To be more of a metaphor, its floor plan is probably like a multi-legged centipede: there is a main road in the middle, the ground is rising, and there are multiple holes on both sides, and there are many paintings of flowers and birds on the inside. The end of the tomb passage ends with a covered corridor, and on both sides are extended ear chambers. The space further forward is obviously wider, and it should be the main tomb chamber.

   "Are we...really going in?"

   Seeing that the three of them had already reached the entrance of the dark tomb, Wu Hao couldn't help but said, "There may be corpses in there. And with such a heavy yin here, maybe you can get zombies out..."

   There are torches on both sides outside, but there is not the slightest light in the tomb, and there is still a vague smell of decay and old. The damp wind poured into his neck, making people shiver.

   Yuan Qingqing was obviously a little scared when he heard this, and turned to look at Xiao Youyu next to him. The latter stretched out his finger and fumbled around the entrance carefully before coming to a conclusion.

"There is no special Suppression Enchantment at this exit. If there are evil things inside, it should have escaped long ago." Xiao Youyu said, "The tomb is the core place of this tomb. I think if there is an exit. The clue should be here."

   With his words, the two of them felt a little relieved. Once they gritted their teeth and stomped their feet, they bravely stepped into the doorless entrance. The fire light illuminates all around, and they can see the strange and weird stone carvings around them.

   Surprisingly, there is nothing terrifying evil in this tomb, not even a coffin. The layout of the entire tomb room is very close to the ancient daily living room, but there is a box of invisible material placed where the bed should be, surrounded by stone arches, and under the box there is a black stone tablet, which seems to be written by the owner of the tomb. Life.

  The epitaphs are all written in classical Chinese. The three of them are not easy to read, but they still understand the general idea.

   To put it simply, this man was a jundu envoy at that time, basically equivalent to a princely king under the enfeoffment system, but he only had salaries and no fief. In the late Tang Dynasty, when the central government declined and the various regions were divided, Jiedushi regained control of the military power in their own battalions, and this Jiedushi quickly made a way out, but this method of fighting attracted the attention of the three.

"Look at what it says, in the late Tang Dynasty there were demons rampant, and this man seemed to have the ability to dispatch demons to fight for them at the time, and what he used to attract demons was a jade bead..." Wu Hao saw this quickly. To the black jade bead in his hand, "is this thing?"

   He suddenly felt that this thing was getting hot, so he only dared to pinch it with two fingers.

"According to what has been said above, due to the help of the magic orb, this jundu has repeatedly fought and won in the separatist regime, and is called the'demon general'. But it seems that because of this, his temper has gradually become perverse, violent, and violent. His appetite skyrocketed, and he needed food no less than five soldiers a day. In his later years, someone reported that he had cannibalism, and suspected that he had turned into a demon, and the person of this report disappeared the next day. …"

Yuan Qingqing read this expression is not very good, but continued to read: "Due to overeating, this person died of illness only a few years ago. Before he died, he left a will. The tomb must be built spacious and luxurious, and the magic beads were released. All the remaining power protects this area. And what exactly should be put in the tomb, even the person who wrote the tomb doesn't know much about it. It just said that when he was buried, he ordered someone to seal the tomb from the outside. Dying, let the craftsmen who entered be buried in it together..."

   She finished reading these with a calm face, and then lowered her head to think: "The yin energy leaked from this tomb can increase appetite. Is this also the breath of the tomb owner? Is this really the tomb of demons?"

  "Why can demons be officially buried?" Wu Hao lowered some torches~www.readwn.com~ Ghosts and monsters are rampant, and demons are hiding among mortals...Looking at it this way, the age of this tomb owner is very chaotic. "

"When Teacher Wei talked about the rejuvenation of spiritual energy, he said that the fairy road once collapsed...If this is the time of the decline, then it can be matched." Yuan Qingqing said, "After we go out, let's ask the teacher together. ."

   "Of course, but you still have to think about how to get out."

   Both looked at Xiao Youyu, and after waiting for his opinion, they found that the latter was fixedly looking at the tomb inscribed, his face was blue.

   "The tomb said that when the tomb owner was buried, the tomb was sealed from the outside, and even the craftsmen were sealed together, and no one went out. In this case, there should be no entrance and exit to the tomb at the time of the burial..."

   He slowly pointed to the doorless entrance to the tomb behind him: "Then, how did the'door' we came in... how did it come?"

   The air became extremely quiet for a while, and even the sound of torches burning seemed to disappear. The biting chill surrounded them, as if an ice needle had penetrated into the spinal cord, and they all understood in an instant.

   As a mausoleum, this is still a tomb where many people are buried. There is no bones or remains.

   Is this "door" really a "door"? Or…

   In this extreme silence, they faintly heard a slight gasp from above their heads.

   In this completely enclosed tomb that has been buried for thousands of years, there is a gasp of something!

   The yin qi around it seemed to have stagnated, and even the three of them were frozen in place. The remaining sound was only a thumping heartbeat, and—

   "Run!!!!"
