Chapter 350: Searching for the Dragon Plate
Beside the ancient road, the grass is dry and lonely, and the wind blows dust all over the sky.
The four rays of light fell. They were all dressed in red and green silk fabrics, woven into colorful flowers, with a strong official style. They wore brocade hats, and had a slightly tired look on their faces. After landing, the four of them formed a defensive formation habitually.
The leader took out a compass. There was a faint little fish in the middle of the mysterious compass. The fish's head shook for a while and then pointed forward.
"It's true. The dragon and snake passed by here. After three years of searching, we finally got a clue!"
"The situation in the Tang Dynasty is critical, the dragon and snake must be captured and suppressed in the True Dragon Palace!"
The four people were happy, excited and determined to win. The dragon and snake entered the rivers and could not be found. Over the years, countless people tried to capture the dragon and snake to suppress their luck, but without exception, they all failed. The dragon and snake hid.
His physical appearance and ability are too high. He appeared several times and then disappeared quickly. All kinds of searches failed.
Fortunately, there are experts in the imperial court who refine the dragon-seeking disk. It is said that when making the dragon-seeking disk, they specially dug up the tomb of a certain late emperor who was buried in the dragon vein, and took a small piece of the spine and integrated it into it.
The remains of the late emperor buried in the dragon's veins have been nourished by the dragon's energy for many years and can sense the dragon's energy.
The dragon and snake live in the pure earth energy of the dragon vein. If the distance is close enough, the dragon-seeking plate will have a special reaction. Now His Majesty has really done anything to find the dragon and snake. Seeing that Li Tang's country is about to fall apart, he has to take this strategy. Anyway, Li Tang
Tang Wandan's tombs of the late emperors have to be opened up, so why not take out the spines and do something useful now?
The leader among the four looked at the several robes.
"There is only one chance. If Dragon Snake escapes, we will be the biggest sinners of the Tang Dynasty! Your Majesty has done something for the sake of the world by desecrating the remains of our ancestors! We are deeply favored by the Emperor! We must die in repayment!"
"Swear to death to capture Dragon Snake!"
The leader sighed and took out the waist badge that represented his identity, and the other three also took out their waist badges.
He took all the badges and dug a hole on the roadside to bury them, moved stones to mark them, and announced his plan with a serious look on his face.
"Remember, if the mission fails, one person must bring the Dragon Hunting Plate back alive. Our waist badges are buried here. Those who come back will come here to take out the waist badges and return to Chang'an."
"I'm only going to say it once, if you fail! Only one person can live! The other three must die!"
"For the world!"
The four set out again, moving forward with faith
Underground mausoleum.
A certain snake is still visiting to pay his respects. Of course, he is preparing to pay homage to the remains of the tomb owner. Even though he is here, he still has to see the owner greeting him to express his respect. The guests and guests are enjoying themselves. Look at the luxury of this big tomb. He must be a prince or princess.
There seems to be an epitaph on the tomb door, but I forgot to read it.
The courtyard is very large, the evergreen lanterns emit a faint light, and there are many people in the palace.
They are all pottery figurines, including a maid holding a tea tray, a eunuch sweeping the floor with a broom, and many soldiers wearing armor and holding sharp swords to guard them. It is very strange that they are all standing still. An ordinary person would have been scared to death.
, Bai Yu is not afraid.
It is estimated that if the tomb owner wakes up at this time and finds out that a huge demon snake has entered the tomb, he will be frightened and faint.
More than scary, a certain snake has never been afraid of anyone.
I opened a luxurious room and went in to take a look. I didn't expect that it was fully equipped with furniture, bedding, curtains and other daily necessities. However, it could not withstand the erosion and decay of the years and the rustic weather. It was obvious that the tomb owner was of high status. The beads on the dome alone were...
To be able to become the richest person in the world is worthy of being a royal family, and you have the confidence to do so.
I walked from room to room, looked in the warehouse and kitchen, and even found a cellar for storing vegetables.
Walking into a house, he saw that the room was full of bamboo slips and animal skin books. The snake was shocked by how many bamboo slips and animal skin books there were. It is not so much that the night pearl above the head and the gold and silver jewelry are the greatest wealth. In fact, it is wrong. Only this room
It is the things in the humble house that are truly priceless. They are so expensive and heavy that they cannot be lifted.
Bai Yu glanced around and backed away slowly, as if he was afraid of disturbing the ancient books in the study that had been silent for many years.
Some things can be destroyed and destroyed, and some things cannot be touched. These ancient classics carry too much, are too heavy, and are more valuable than the secret books of martial arts. Perhaps in the eyes of those practitioners, mortal classics are not worth mentioning, but a certain snake from
Don't think of yourself as noble, keep in mind that you are just a small existence struggling to survive, struggling to live like ordinary people.
After thinking about it, I took out a few weight stones from my storage bag and set up a simple but long-lasting drying circle. Maybe the person who built the tomb just randomly piled in the books that the tomb owner liked during his lifetime and did not do much.
If you need more protection, underground moisture will gradually corrode those bamboo slips and animal skin books. What Baiyu has to do is to keep them longer.
The magic circle is very simple, and simplicity can only last long. For example, the more complex a machine is, the easier it is to break.
I quickly set it up and patted the non-existent dust on my hands.
"I hope someone will discover the ancient books thousands of years from now"
Turn around and go straight to the main hall.
The glazed tiles of the main hall shone faintly under the night pearl on the dome. There is no square, only a lake. The underground river runs across the mausoleum and flows from the square lake. The island in the middle of the lake is the main hall of the mausoleum, where the coffin of the tomb owner is located. It has been lying underground for unknown years.
There is some damage in some places.
"Sure enough, it's cooler underground. It's too hot outside. The water is good."
After saying that, I jumped into the lake to enjoy the coolness. It had been a long time since I took a bath in a big river or lake, and I felt uncomfortable all over. It was only when I entered the water that I felt comfortable. The water was clear and cold, and the whole snake felt comfortable.
The legs swayed and turned into a snake's tail. The snake's tail twisted, and it swam and writhed quickly under the water, enjoying the comfort of the cold water passing through the snake's scales. From time to time, it jumped up and down, the water rumbled and splashed, and the waves surged up the bank and swept away countless years.
The accumulated dust breaks the silence underground.
Swimming and playing in ancient tombs is also very strange.
After soaking for half an hour, I felt so comfortable that I reluctantly went ashore, humming an unknown song and pushing open the gorgeous wooden door of the main hall.
He stretched out his hand to grab an arrow, stepped on the sharp knife under the flap on the ground and walked in. Then he wrapped the poisonous smoke ignited by the mechanism into a ball and threw it into the river outside, and walked leisurely to the huge coffin.
Scanning the murals in the temple, it describes the life of the tomb owner, who was a princess of the former dynasty and died at a young age.
I looked at the gold and silver utensils and pearl treasures placed around me. A certain snake did not move. These gold and silver jewels had been buried underground for too long and were slightly different from the treasures on the ground. Besides, there was no need to touch the dead people's things without any grudges.
Bai Yu loves money, and most of the time he earns a penny or a tael of silver by setting up his own stall, and he has rules.
"This snake is passing by the treasure land looking for a place to live. If you don't object, I will stay here for a few days. Don't worry, I won't drag your body out to make dried meat."
"If you don't say anything, I'll assume you agree?"
"thanks for treatment."
After looking at the gorgeous coffin, he turned around and sang a little tune and left the hall. He found a good place by the river and laid out a bamboo mat. He took out blankets and pillows and spread them before getting into bed and fell asleep.
After walking for several months, I am tired.
