Chapter 53 - cremated into soup
Chapter 53 Cremation into soup
Wang Commander and his party entered the passage first. Then, Zhao Xiayang waved his hand, followed by the Qingshuimen disciples. More than 20 soldiers were strong and strong, until they all disappeared behind the curtain of light, and the remaining people moved.
The middle-aged scholar was afraid of Wang Tongling’s deep scheming, and worried that Zhao Xiayang had too many people. He temporarily attracted a few lone rangers. Everyone reported to the group to keep warm or take care of each other.
Lu Bei and She Heng declined the proposal of the middle-aged scholar to form a team. It is safe to have a large number of people, but comparing their hearts, they feel that what the middle-aged scholar needs is not teammates, but cannon fodder to prevent disasters.
There were uninvited guests behind the tunnel. The two did not dare to delay, and stepped into the water curtain at the end of the tunnel one after the other.
Suddenly, it was pitch black in front of him, and She Hen held the luminous beads in his hand and couldn’t see in all directions, he only knew that he was in a huge cave.
“The way back is gone, was that a teleportation formation just now?” Lu Bei stepped back a few steps, failing to jump across the water curtain repeatedly.
“should be.”
She Xian frowned and put away the luminous beads, the golden snake pupil flashed a strange color, sniffing the faint smell in the air, and led Lu Bei to the right side with a quick walk.
Without the illumination of luminous beads, the fragments of phosphate rock on the stone walls of the cave glowed little by little. It was obviously underground, but it gave people the feeling of looking up at the starry sky.
Lu Bei followed She Hean and walked into a winding tunnel mine. The inside of the cave was dark and dark. He put his hand on She Hean’s shoulder to prevent the crisis from coming, and he couldn’t sacrifice his teammates at the first time.
Shexiang didn’t know Lu Bei’s mind, only when people were blind in the dark, did they subconsciously put them on her shoulders.
“Aunt Snake, you are an old tomb robber, analyze what’s going on in this mine.”
Lu Beiqi said: “There is a mine outside the teleportation array, which can be said to be a local gang seeking money. The inside of the array is already on the edge of the tomb, why are there still obvious traces of excavation?”
“It may be a robbery, or it may be a burial person digging…”
Shechang gave two answers that he didn’t quite believe, and then he remained silent. Ever since he learned that he was calculated by the commander Wang and became one of the five keys to open the door, he had a vague sense of ominous premonition.
Since Commander Wang was able to determine her demon cultivator bloodline, he could naturally find out her true identity. Wearing a human-skin mask made him feel lonely and in a terrible mood.
Lu Bei was about to say something when suddenly there was moving air in front of him, and along with the humid air came a few shrill screams.
Lu Bei did not hesitate, took the knife in his hand, and followed She Hean to quickly search for the sound source.
The light and shadow are blurred, and a huge space that has been dormant underground for many years comes into view.
At a height of 100 meters, the blue Qionggai is under the hood, the water waves are undercurrent, and the light penetrates through it, and a few swimming fish can be faintly seen. Judging by the size of the fish, all of them are amazing in size. Without exception, Lin Yu saw ecstasy. water monster level.
Under this blue sky, the square ground is covered with neat stone slabs, one hundred and eight stone pillars are arranged in an array, a building shaped like a pyramid is located in the center, and four ditches connect the border moat, dividing the entire underground area. into four pieces.
“The sky is round and the place is guarded by four spirits, dotted with stars, and the spiritual veins gather in the river…”
Lu Bei was dumbfounded, and clenched his hand on She Hean’s shoulder: “I believe that such a large-scale mausoleum is the tomb of Emperor Qinggan, did we open the wrong teleportation array?”
She Chang also looked at the pyramid building like a giant beast in surprise, his shoulders were sore and awake, he frowned and patted Lu Bei’s claws away.
“Start lightly, don’t you have any strength in your heart?”
“There are numbers, try to see if you are dreaming.”
She Chang was silent, and the snake pupil looked at Lu Bei, who was also silent. After a while, the two spoke at the same time: “What do you think?”
The size of the tomb is definitely not something that ordinary members of the royal family can enjoy. It can be called a relic. The identity of the owner of the tomb in Qinggan must be noble and extraordinary. Whether it is the mechanism or the formation in the relic, it is not something that two people can easily try.
Lu Bei didn’t want to take risks, nor did She Hean, and at the same time retreated, just waiting for the other party to admit their counsel, and then follow the trend.
Just after the two of them tacitly agreed and finalized the plan to return the same way, a new problem was placed in front of them.
Where is the road?
The teleportation array is one-way, you can only get in, and you can’t find the exit if you want to retreat.
“No way, let’s take a look, we’re just outside, we won’t go in.”
Lu Bei pointed to the pyramid in the distance, and suddenly thought of a possibility: “I heard that after the demise of Qingqian, the imperial tombs located in Wuzhou were guarded by garrisoned troops, and no one was allowed to steal and explore, even the Zhu family themselves. No, is it possible that we are one of them?”
The unspoken rule of alternating dynasties, the tombs of the former emperors were forbidden areas and must be properly protected.
First, to respect others is to respect oneself. Second, no one has a hundred years from now, once a pioneer has been established, today you dig others, tomorrow others will dig you.
“Impossible, you really think it.”
She Heng shook his head: “Garrison protection is just a superficial rhetoric, I don’t believe it anyway, I suspect that the burial of people in this large tomb is fake, and the treasures are real. found.”
“That’s good.”
Lu Bei breathed a sigh of relief: “I’m really afraid that when I find a way out, there will be a strong military camp in front of you. Dozens of siege artillery and crossbow salvos will be fired. I can’t stop you by pushing you forward.”
She Chang: “…”
She rolled her eyes and strode towards the pyramid.
Lu Bei hurriedly followed, stepping on the footprints left by She Heng, and the two stepped into the Four Spirits Array, but after a while, they saw two corpses beside a coiled snake style.
The screams before came from them.
The skin of the two people exposed on the outside of their clothes was dark purple and black, the seven orifices were bleeding, their facial expressions were ferocious, and their limbs were twisted. At a glance, they had experienced great pain before death.
“Pity.”
Lu Bei shook his head, the Qiankun bag was in front of him but he couldn’t pick it up.
“They died from snake kisses. Poison beads are useless. If you don’t want to die, follow me closely.”
She Xiang reminded Lu Beidao that as soon as she left the teleportation array, she smelled the smell of snakes in the air. As expected, except that the ruins were a little bigger, the risk was a little higher, and the layout of the Four Spiritual Formation was a little grander, the rest was not much different from what she expected. .
Lu Bei heard that the chicken was pecking at the rice, and took two steps towards She Hean. The latter demonized the tail of a snake and exuded the same kind of breath.
Halfway through, the coiled snake style hissed softly, and black-scaled thin snakes climbed out of the hollow stone pillar. These poisonous snakes are half a meter long and twenty centimeters short, with red stripes on their foreheads, black scales glowing with metallic cold light, red letters like fire, and in a short while they densely cover the ground and gather as many as a thousand.
[Side quest: Defeat the King Snake Array, reward 100,000 experience]
Lu Bei felt a chill on the back of his neck, and took two steps closer to She Hen again. It was also a snake, and the one beside him was much warmer.
“Get out of the way, don’t be so tight!”
Shexiang’s face was full of disgust, and he took a step away from Lu Bei. Seeing that the encirclement was getting smaller and smaller, his own breath could not confuse the surrounding poisonous snakes, so he raised his wrists high.
The golden bracelet roamed, and the golden-scaled snake stood upright in the palm of her hand. As it spit out a letter in a hurry, the black poisonous snakes scattered in pieces, and rushed back into the stone pillar like a tide.
“Aunt Snake, you haven’t answered the last time I asked you, can I touch this snake sister?” Lu Bei’s eyes lit up, he knew that this snake had a prominent status, and he should have fed it a few more times along the way.
“Yes, but the ugly words are up front, it’s none of my business to die, you brought it on yourself.”
“Then please tell Sister Snake, in case you are cremated into a soup one day, let it come to Sanqingfeng to find me, but if Lu has a stutter, he will never starve it.” Lu Bei said solemnly.
“Don’t bother, as long as I still have a breath before I die, don’t even think about living alone!”
“Hey, it’s so earthy.”
