Chen Mengsheng and his party were led by Xiang Xiaotian, half-crouching and half-crawling in the cold and dark underground cave. Among the four people, only Xiang Xiaotian and Chen Mengsheng, the first and last, could distinguish objects in the darkness. Xiang Xiaotian spent most of his life.
They all lived by hunting in the mountains. To Xiang Xiaotian, this cave was like walking on flat ground. His nine-foot stature did not affect his progress in the cave at all. After all, Jiang Meng and Shangguan Yanran were not used to reaching out like this.
Where his fingers were nowhere to be seen, he stopped several times and asked Xiang Xiaotian in a low voice how far away the cave was. At first, Xiang Xiaotian would answer Jiang Meng who was behind him, but later, Xiang Xiaotian simply threw his hands forward and followed the slope of the cave.
They quickly slid down and reached the exit, causing a fire to light up their way.
With Xiang Xiaotian's guidance, Jiang Meng and Shangguan Yanran's eyes suddenly lit up, and they all followed Xiang Xiaotian's example and slid down. "It's so big here. Brother Xiang, have we already reached the Han Tomb?" Shangguan
After Yanran landed, she looked at the ancient hall that had been sleeping for thousands of years with the help of the light from Xiang Xiao's Tianhuozi.
Jiang Meng lit more incense, tied it to a torch and said, "Miss Shangguan, this should be the front room of the Hanling Cemetery. We haven't even reached the tomb door yet." While giving the lit torch to Shangguan Yanran,
The front room of the Han Tomb is a square, khaki-colored hall. The whole hall is supported by twelve large pillars. Outside each pillar is a bronze statue of a half-person tall maid holding a lamp plate. Under the light of torches
You can see an arched overpass behind the main hall, with shadowy stone steps under the overpass.
Jiang Meng was about to reach out and touch the bronze statue of the maid, but she jumped up as if being bitten by an electric snake, and shouted loudly: "My grandma, the bronze statue here is wrapped in a real person!"
With such a roar, the entire front hall buzzed with echoes...
Shangguan Yanran raised the torch and saw that there was a crack as wide as a finger on the right calf of the bronze statue of a kneeling girl. From the crack, one could clearly see a burnt black leg bone exposed in the bronze statue.
Xiang Xiaotian said behind Shangguan Yanran: "Girl, don't look at them. They are human figurines. They are often found in the tombs of nobles in palaces from the Warring States Period to the Han Dynasty. After killing the living people, they made them look like a kneeling woman holding a lamp plate, and then
The corpse was wrapped in thick yellow mud, and when the yellow mud dried and hardened, copper juice was poured into it. Once the skin and flesh met the hot copper juice, it immediately became ripe and rotten and fell off. The copper juice filled the gaps in the skin and flesh, leaving only
There are big bones that cannot be melted. This bronze statue of human figurines must have been knocked when it was transported here, and the bones inside were exposed."
Jiang Meng smacked his tongue and said: "I thought that the thousand-year-old Han Mausoleum was full of treasures. These twelve bronze statues looked so lifelike. It turns out that even if these scary things were given to me, I
I definitely don’t dare to ask for it. Let’s get down to business quickly and leave this hellish place.”
Shangguan Yanran asked Chen Mengsheng softly as she walked: "Senior brother, the innocent souls in those bronze statues of maids are so pitiful. Can you help them enter reincarnation?"
Chen Mengsheng shook his head and said: "In the Han Tomb, I only saw the ghostly aura rising to the sky, but no soul. I guess it is that those buried with him had their souls removed after they died thousands of years ago to prevent the ghosts from disturbing the tomb owner.
"
The four people walked through the front hall and walked under the arched overpass. They came to a dark and bottomless stone staircase corridor that continued upward. The corridor was only wide enough for two people to walk side by side. Chen Mengsheng walked at the front and behind.
The three of them filed up the stone staircase they passed. After walking about ten steps, Chen Mengsheng's body swayed, and the stone step he stepped on with his left foot suddenly dropped by half an inch. There was an earth-shaking loud noise behind him, which shocked the whole world.
The four people on the stone steps all trembled. Looking back, they saw that the broken dragon stone at the entrance of the corridor had fallen down, blocking the escape route of the four people. After the broken dragon stone fell, there were four people on all sides.
There was a strange dull sound above the person's head...
Chen Mengsheng shouted: "Everyone, be careful, the mechanism in the tomb has been triggered." The thumping sound came from far to near, from slow to rapid. A stone ball weighing more than 10,000 kilograms and filled with the corridor rolled towards Chen Mengsheng at a rapid speed. Chen Mengsheng did not dare to careless.
The Yin Thunder Fire attacked the huge stone ball like a tide. Xiang Xiaotian's divine arrows continuously shot at the stone steps rolling down the stone ball. Although the ebony arrows were crushed by the stone ball, as long as
If you can block the falling of the stone ball, you can give Chen Mengsheng a little more time to win.
There seemed to be a rainstorm of gravel in the corridor, and the golden thunderfire exploded the giant stone balls non-stop. Jiang Meng and Shangguan Yanran were completely stunned by the sudden change in an instant. Time seemed so strange at this moment.
It was very important. Chen Mengsheng made a gesture with his hands, and circles of fire surrounded the stone ball. Stones kept falling from the surface of the boulder. Chen Mengsheng shouted: "Quick, everyone stands close to the wall, the stone ball is coming.
…”
Xiang Xiaotian closed his bow and leaned against the wall and cursed: "That bastard used such a big diamond as a mechanism. Brother, you should be careful yourself. The stone ball has become much smaller, so get out of the way!"
Chen Mengsheng was waiting for the stone ball to fly to his eyes. As soon as he mistakenly recited the Vajra Body Protection Mantra with his heels and stood against the wall, the stone ball whizzed past his back and skirt. The edge of the speeding stone ball scraped against Chen Mengsheng's back.
There was a grinding sound, and the stone ball hit the Dragon Broken Stone with a bang and stopped.
Chen Mengsheng asked in shock: "Is everyone okay?"
Jiang Meng, who was standing at the end, smiled and said: "With your skin thicker than the city wall blocking us, we will be fine." Shangguan Yanran looked at Chen Mengsheng's back with concern on his face.
It was torn into pieces, and I wanted to see if Chen Mengsheng was injured, but I was afraid of being laughed at by Xiang Xiaotian.
Sure enough, Xiang Xiaotian said: "Girl, stop looking. The incense has burned to the width of a finger. Go back and destroy the ghost king's body. You can watch it as long as you like. We just pretend we haven't seen it and won't stop you."
"Shangguan Yanran's face turned red when Xiang Xiaotian said this, and she hurriedly followed Chen Mengsheng up the stone steps.
After walking up the stone steps for a cup of tea, they suddenly turned into an open plain. The flat ground was covered with white jade stones of the same size. Ninety-nine jade stones were lined up, and each stone was about one foot square. Chen Mengsheng motioned for everyone to go first.
He returned to the corridor and stepped onto the nine-row white marble array. Every time he took a step, he used the magic ruler in his hand to make a heavy mark on the jade. After walking three steps, the jade stone at his feet fell over and exposed the underside of the jade stone.
Chen Mengsheng shrank his feet and jumped onto the jade stone next to him, and suddenly thousands of arrows shot out from the top of the jade formation. The sound of swishing through the air was like a violent storm. Shangguan Yanran wanted to poke her head several times to see Chen Mengsheng's spear.
Safety was pulled back by Xiang Xiaotian. He said sternly: "Girl, you don't want your life. Your senior brother is so advanced that a hidden arrow cannot hurt him at all. If you are injured by a stray arrow, it will kill your senior brother."
Here." Shangguan Yanran's mouth flattened when Xiang Xiaotian said it and she was about to cry.
Seeing Shangguan Yanran's pitiful look, Jiang Meng couldn't help but comfort him: "Miss Shangguan, please don't worry about Brother Chen. He is very capable. I have been worried about Gengxiang Burn for almost half an hour now, but
We can't even find the door to the tomb. If the ghost king wakes up, we will become the futile ghosts who didn't support the lamp plate."
"Shh, be gentle, stop talking. The sound of arrows outside has begun to stop. I guess my brother has broken through the white jade square formation." As soon as Xiang Xiaotian said these words, the three of them concentrated and held their breath to hear the hidden arrows outside.
The sound of shooting through the air had become sparse. When the sound of arrows stopped, the three people turned around and walked out of the corridor. They were stunned by the scene outside. Thousands of sharp arrows were stacked up and down on the entire white jade square array.
, Chen Mengsheng spread the palm of his left hand to protect his face, and held the Demon-Conquering Ruler in his right hand to move the arrows on the stones he walked under his feet on both sides. He was shot by sharp arrows from his hair to the uppers of his shoes, like a hedgehog, Xiang Xiaotiansan
He walked across the stone formation by stepping on the white jade stone that Chen Mengsheng had deflected the arrow from. Shangguan Yanran hurriedly came forward to help Chen Mengsheng remove the sharp arrow from his body, with a look of distress in his eyes.
The four of them continued to walk forward, and what they saw was a cast iron gate three feet high. On both sides of the gate were small iron gates that could only allow single people to pass through. In front of the iron gate hung a golden rope that could only pass through.
It is a rope bridge of more than ten feet. The bridge is paved with thick pine boards. Both ends of the golden rope are tied to the huge protruding soapstone piers. Under the bridge is a dark silver ravine several feet deep. A large iron gate.
There was a pattern of a flying dragon with fangs and claws cast on it, and the fist-sized dragon eyes shone under the reflection of the fire. Jiang Meng slapped his thigh and shouted: "What a big night pearl of the East China Sea, I have been drinking water for more than 30 years."
I have never seen such a big and round Dongzhu before. I was just looking for some rare treasures, but I didn’t expect to find them without any effort." Jiang Meng looked at the pair of huge dragon eyes with fascination, step by step.
walked towards the rope bridge.
Chen Mengsheng saw that each golden rope on the rope bridge was as thick as a child's arm. Jiang Meng stepped on the bridge a few times and found that the rope bridge was strong and solid. He hurriedly called Chen Mengsheng and the others to cross the bridge together. Chen Mengsheng saw something dark and silver in the ravine.
It is the mercury used by Taoists in burning elixirs and refining medicine. He shouted loudly: "Brother Jiang, be careful, there is a scam on the rope bridge!"
Jiang Meng said, "I've tried my best, and this rope is strong." He held the golden rope in one hand and a torch in the other. He carried the household items and the nine-ring sword behind his back, and just left.
When I reached the middle of the bridge, I heard a shuddering sound from the golden rope under my feet, and the bridge broke into two halves...
"Ah..., Brother Chen, help me!" Jiang Meng tightened his hands on the broken golden rope and his feet had already fallen into the mercury in the ravine. The things on his back fell into the mercury lake one by one, and they fell into the mercury lake.
He sank without even a bubble. The mercury was swallowing Jiang Meng quickly, and in the blink of an eye, his two thighs were sealed inside by the mercury. Chen Mengsheng stepped on the vertical ladder with all his strength, grabbed Jiang Meng's belt and shouted, trying to pull it.
As Jiang Meng was still sinking, Chen Mengsheng did not expect that the mercury would be like a large whirlpool full of suction, sucking Jiang Meng down inch by inch. Chen Mengsheng's hand holding Jiang Meng's belt had also begun to immerse in the mercury.
, as Jiang Meng sank, Chen Mengsheng was gradually brought into the terrifying mercury lake...
Xiang Xiaotian and Shangguan Yanran, who were standing by the broken bridge, were as anxious as ants on a hot pot. However, they were only a few feet apart and it was too much for a big girl to have a baby. When Shangguan Yanran saw the mercury submerging Chen Mengsheng's entire arm,
, her face turned pale and tears fell. She thought that if Chen Mengsheng was swallowed by the mercury lake, she would just jump in. She wanted to shout for Chen Mengsheng to let go, but she also knew that Chen Mengsheng would not let go.
"Girl, give me your rhinoceros steel whip." Shangguan Yanran was suddenly awakened by Xiang Xiaotian's roar...
