Professor Zhang's expression became much more solemn, and he looked up at the magnificent-looking stone arch.
I lowered my head and continued to study the hexagrams I had obtained earlier.
Qian Gua, Li Gua, Zhen Gua, Gen Gua...
I suddenly saw a glimmer of life in the almost completely ominous hexagram, like an oasis in the desert.
This is actually a hexagram that is both evil and auspicious.
Danger can be avoided, and even has a faint good omen.
I suddenly raised my head and looked at Professor Zhang.
He is also looking at me.
"I think, why don't we try walking through that door! I didn't notice just now that there is a faint auspicious omen in this hexagram." I looked at him and said.
"Really?" Professor Zhang's face showed a look of surprise, and his eyes lit up instantly.
"Really, but everyone must pay attention to safety and act with caution. After all, it is a bad divination. If it happens, it may be injured at least or killed at worst!" I said slowly and looked around at everyone.
"Ha, when I just said that it was dangerous to go in, I was so alarmist, why don't you still have to go in now?" Qian Zhiqi sneered, and Professor Zhang turned his face and looked at him with sullen eyes.
Zeng Yichen gently tugged at the corner of Qian Zhiqi's clothes. Qian Zhiqi looked at Professor Zhang and closed his mouth and stopped talking.
Professor Zhang and I looked at each other and said in unison: "I'll go ahead!"
Professor Zhang smiled and looked at me gently.
"I'd better go ahead!" I said, "I'll check out the situation from the front first, and make sure there's no danger before you go!"
Professor Zhang did not argue with me anymore, so I walked in the front, followed by Professor Zhang and Xu Wenying, then Qian Zhiqi and Zeng Yichen, followed by Fu Jie.
Qian Zhiqi kept mumbling while walking in the middle. As long as he wouldn't do anything that would put everyone in danger, I didn't bother to pay attention to him.
I don’t know why, but my intuition told me that Qian Zhiqi is actually not a bad person. He just likes to complain and is not good at hiding his thoughts. In our local terms, he is the kind of person who has a straight gut and knows everything. In this case
Under strange circumstances, people's psychology can easily collapse. Xiao Han got separated again, and a soldier died in front of us. I am the youngest, so it is normal for him not to trust me.
After walking only about 300 meters, the full view of the huge arch appeared in front of us.
From a distance, it looked like it was covered in fog, but when we got closer, it was clear and clear without even a trace of fog. It seemed that it was not the same place as what we saw from a distance. The entire arch could be seen clearly with the light of a flashlight.
The entire arch is made of white marble. A giant black dragon hovers above the arch, which is lifelike. Professor Zhang and others stood under the arch and looked up at the giant dragon, with astonishment and amazement on their faces.
I don’t know what kind of material the black dragon is carved from, but it is completely embedded in the white marble arch. The color looks somewhat similar to the piece of black jade on my neck. Each scale is carved with clear texture and even sparkles slightly.
With cold light.
The dragon's head is almost flush with the top of the arch, and its eyes are made of two bright black gems, shining with dazzling light.
"Wow!" Qian Zhiqi exclaimed: "Those two eyeballs, if I could dig them out, it would be enough for me to spend a lifetime!"
Xu Wenying slapped him on the head and said: "You really dare to say this, let people hear it, don't embarrass my father, an archaeological expert wants to dig out gems from ancient buildings!"
"Hey, look, it's different now that you recognize me. You dare to bully us senior brothers, right? This is the first time I've seen such a spectacular and gorgeous ancient building," Qian Zhiqi said jokingly
.
As he spoke, Qian Zhiqi suddenly froze and muttered, "Ancient building!" and then turned to look at Professor Zhang, "Professor, are we still in this group of ancient tombs? Otherwise, how can we explain this door? Is it here?
Is it a huge underground palace?”
"A huge underground palace?" Professor Zhang pondered, looking at Qian Zhiqi, his eyes shining with excitement and enthusiasm, "Only in this way can we explain why there are so many Yin fish here!"
"Professor, if this is true, then we will have made a huge contribution to the country!" Qian Zhiqi said excitedly.
"Don't be too happy, we are not the only ones in this place!" Professor Zhang said solemnly: "We must do everything we can to prevent those people from destroying these cultural heritages!"
While we were talking, there was a rustling sound behind us, and the withered and charred flowers on the other side were lifted high by something, floating and flying in the sky, like strange black and red butterflies.
The rustling sound became louder and louder. Several of us turned around at the same time and saw a layer of dark mist covering the river bank that was originally covered with flowers. The mist carried the fragments of flowers flying towards us like a tide.
Sweeping in.
We stared at the strange black fog with wide eyes.
"Run! Run quickly! That's not fog! That's bugs, countless black bugs!" Qian Zhiqi suddenly shouted, turned around and ran towards the stone door.
At this time, I also saw clearly the layer of black mist sweeping towards us. It was actually filled with densely packed black beetles, and they were crawling towards us quickly. They looked similar to ladybugs, but were larger in size.
It is more than ten times larger, and its black shell is shiny, with a faint cyan cold light.
My scalp was numb, and I followed Qian Zhiqi in a low voice: "Run, run, run! That's the tomb guarding soul insect!"
After Professor Zhang heard me say the words "tomb guarding soul insect", his face turned as white as snow, and he turned his head and ran quickly behind the stone arch.
It is recorded in the "Shengyuan Heavenly Book" that the tomb-guarding soul worm is a kind of insect raised in tomb chambers by the ancients to prevent tomb robbers. Each soul worm is refined from nine living souls. When it encounters a living person, it will
It will burrow into the skin of a living person, use the living person's body as a container to lay eggs inside, and breed more tomb-guarding soul insects.
Fortunately, those tomb-guarding soul insects didn't seem to dare to pass through the arch, and stopped fifty meters away from the arch. The tomb-guarding soul insects behind piled on the tomb-guarding soul insects in front, like spreading beans.
Spread out on the white marble ground.
At this time, a strange scene happened that we never expected. The eyes of the black dragon hovering on the stone arch suddenly shined with light of different colors. After the light, the black dragon opened its mouth and looked at the tomb guards who had crossed the line.
The soul worm spits out blazing blue flames.
We had just passed through the white marble arch, but we could still feel that the blue flames were extremely cold. The icy air enveloped us, and the coldness hit our bones.
Those soul insects that crossed the boundary instantly turned into powder, and finally disappeared completely, leaving nothing behind.
Professor Zhang and others were shivering due to the cold breath, with fine goosebumps appearing on their faces, and even their exhaled breath condensed into white mist.
As this chill entered my body, the ink jade on my chest began to warm up and become hot, and finally even emitted a streak of ink-colored light, which faintly came out from the thick jacket.
Following that ink-colored light, I felt as if my whole body was on fire, and it seemed like a fire was jumping up in my chest, and I couldn't suppress it no matter what.
Qian Zhiqi looked up at the giant dragon on the stone arch and murmured intoxicatedly: "It's so handsome. It can even breathe fire. Is it helping us?" This chapter has been completed!
