Chapter 52: Stone Statues Like Life

"The arrow body is made of the most popular Sichuan cloud bamboo in the pre-Qin Dynasty! It is not completely decayed!" After finishing speaking to a real person, Xiang Yizhen suddenly became excited: "Look, there are no traces of hidden arrows shot on the ground before. Obviously, this secret passage has not been there before.

Someone has come in!"

As a master tomb robber, the most disappointing thing in his life was to carefully open an ancient tomb only to find that it had been stolen. Now he is very happy.

Chen Guanque said coldly: "That's not necessarily true. What if a master comes in but has never touched the mechanism?"

This basin of cold water was poured on Xiang Yiren. He lowered his head and saw that the rope was very small. It was a black copper rope. It was still tight and silent in the darkness. It was really difficult to avoid him.

When he was about to get angry, Master Shouyue hurriedly tried to smooth things over: "We all value peace! The mechanism from more than two thousand years ago is now elastic and can shoot out, which is already very powerful! Although it was powerful at the time, it certainly can't hurt us now. We

Come in quickly!"

There is a passage turning over there. Xuezi and Chen Guan are even more sure that there is a hidden inscription on the stone tablet. After all, there is no mention of such a mechanism in "Behind the Welcome Monument, the Corner is Connected". If a person who has never practiced spiritual practice enters the passage,

There was obviously no possibility of escape.

"Corner chain... Corner chain..." Tie Jiuhua, who had walked to the front again, turned the corner of the passage and suddenly shouted: "Ah, what is that?"

He is a master of a sect and a master of surviving thunder tribulations. There are not many things in the world that can surprise him.

Behind them, Master Xiang Yi, Master Su Ku and others hurriedly turned around the passage, followed by Chen Guanye and Xue Zi. Everyone saw red and yellow lights shining everywhere in the cave.

"This cave may be the ultimate cave!" The Tai Chi compass in Xiang Yi's hand suddenly stopped completely. He asked in surprise: "Go up and take a look. What is the reflected light in front of you?"

Chen Guan looked at the surrounding cave. It was about 16 to 70 feet wide and deeper. It was very open and high up there. He couldn't see the farthest side for the time being. But in the distance, there was a shining light that surprised Tie Jiuhua from about 3 to 4 feet away.

point.

Tong Emei frowned: "This is like a mirror reflecting light! But what is the use of a mirror in this cave?"

Master Shouyue had already walked over quickly and suddenly exclaimed: "It's not a mirror! It's... it's... the eyes of a huge stone statue!"

Under the illumination of Qin's Fourteenth Young Master's torch and the copper Emei Pearl, Chen Guan and Xuezi had actually seen clearly at this time. They saw that there was no standard at all in the distance, but there were many stone statues surrounding a large circle, sparsely located in the

In the cave.

"Yes, what shines is the objects in the eyes of these stone statues! They themselves also have color, and they are reflected by the light of the orb in Tongling Master's hand and the torch of the Fourteenth Young Master, so we saw all kinds of light first!" Xiang Yi Zhenren came to one statue and two statues.

In front of the meter-high stone statues, I was very surprised: "These stone statues are all carved from a natural stone. The brushwork is simple and slightly curled, which is exactly the handwriting of the Qin Dynasty! They look like gems, which are very rare. If you get these gems

In the outside world, just one piece is definitely worth more than ten kilograms of gold nuggets!"

"One, two, three...seven, eight...eleven, twelve!" Qin Shishi counted a circle of distant stone statues: "Grandpa, there are a total of twelve stone statues!"

Qin Henyu was more interested in the appearance, size and shape of these stone statues. He turned around and looked at the stone statues of a real person: "These stone statues are so strange. They are said to be animals and the like, but some are similar to the present ones, and some are similar to the ones we have now."

But I have almost never seen it! For example, this stone statue looks like a scorpion, but are there any big scorpions that are more than two feet long in the world? It seems to be just an exaggeration!"

"Yes, the big stone statue is only a few feet long, and the small one is only a little over one meter! Weird!" Master Shouyue also shook his head in confusion.

Tie Jiuhua used his spiritual energy to explore the stone statue: "The stone statue is dead and there is nothing strange about it at all. Apart from the gems in the eyes, let's look for the Taoist secrets and the golden man first!"

Xuezi and Chen Guan saw at a glance that the second one that came in was the stone statue of the Millennium Crane King. The stone statue did not spread its wings. The Crane King stood on one leg, with his head and neck bent back and hidden in the wings. Even so, the stone statue was completely tall.

Nearly three meters tall, the word "seven" is vaguely carved on the bottom of the stone statue.

She and the Millennium Crane King have lived together day and night in the Japanese island country for more than ten years. She has seen the Crane King sleeping countless times, and she knows it as soon as he sees it.

"Brother..." They looked at each other and saw that the other stone statues were also beasts and birds. They couldn't help but understand: "These twelve stone statues are the twelve holy spirits of the country who respectively protect the twelve golden people."

But for some reason, the person who told Qin Henyu and others about the Twelve Golden Men and the Nine Jue of Jiejiao didn't seem to tell them about the Twelve Holy Spirits of Zhenguo, and Tong Emei didn't take the stone statue into his heart either.

The other masters were not impressed by the stone statues. Xuezi was so shocked. The cave was too big. They were just looking for treasures everywhere at first. Xiang Yizhen was still a little greedy for the gems in the eyes of the stone statues. Tong Emei saw the greedy light in his eyes,

He couldn't help but said calmly: "Why do we cultivators care about worldly possessions? The stone statue has been intact for more than two thousand years. I don't think a real person would have the heart to let the stone statue's eyes be separated!"

Tie Jiuhua was equally dissatisfied: "The stone statues and the eyes have been together for two thousand years. Although they are lifeless, how cruel is it to hollow out the eyes? If Xiang Yi Zhenren wants to have the idea of ​​jeweling the eyes of the stone statues, isn't he afraid that he will also suffer retribution in the end?

?Buddha says that cause and effect cycle, one word becomes a prophecy! Real man, beware!"

Greed was born early in the heart of Master Xiang Yi. The gem in the scorpion's eyes was the extremely precious sunset red, which was only available before the Han Dynasty. It is now extremely valuable, but now faced with the warnings of Tong Emei and Tie Jiuhua, he did not dare to take action.

He smiled hurriedly and said, "I just want to take a look!"

Only Chen Guan and Xuezi, with Jiu Ling, pretended to be looking for things casually, but in fact they were circling around the stone statues of the twelve holy spirits of the country, observing them one by one.

The sixth stone statue next to the seventh-ranked Millennium Crane King is majestic. It is nearly two meters long and has obvious muscle outlines. It is very spectacular. A tail stretches straight out. From its head, it can be seen that this is a huge tiger.

"With such a long and strong body, he looks like your Siberian tiger in China!" Xuezi said softly.

The stone statue marked five is very strange. It looks like a huge long snake circling and stacked layer by layer, and underneath it is a hard turtle shell with a diameter of two feet. The long snake is already more than two feet high. I don’t know what it will be after unfolding.

How long and terrifying it is.

"It's so huge. Could it be that this is the Xuanwu legendary in the Taoist Scriptures?" Chen Guan was secretly surprised.

In comparison, the fourth stone statue is much easier to recognize. It is a lifelike male peacock with a height of more than two meters and a giant screen with a diameter of three meters behind it.

The third stone statue is about two feet long and one foot tall. Judging from the two horns on its head, it looks like a buffalo. Its whole body is bulging, and it seems to have endless exertion.

The second stone statue next to the buffalo is a snake wrapped around a carved stone tree. It is more than a foot thick and an unknown number of feet long. What is rare is that this snake is covered in fiery red. Most of the other stone statues are made of bluestone.

There is no mottled color, and perhaps its toxicity is the most terrifying.

"This snake has two horns on its head, has it turned into a dragon?" Chen Guan whispered to Xuezi softly.

However, the stone statue ranked first was a bit blurry, a bunch of feathers and the like, with no head and tail visible, and seemed to be hidden. Neither of them recognized it.

The stone statue next to the first stone statue has the word "twelve" carved on it. It is easy to recognize. It is a giant eagle with big eyes flying in the sky on the stone. Now it spreads its wings. The wings are powerful and powerful, and are more than three feet wide.

The stone statue next to the giant sculpture is much smaller, only three feet tall. It looks like a dog and a fox. The only surprise is that it has four tails on its tail.

The tenth stone statue is the shortest, because it crawls on the ground and is about two feet long. Looking from the side, it looks like a big centipede.

After Chen Guan and Xuezi saw Centipede, they were looking forward to the ninth stone statue. After all, the nine spirits were ranked as "nine" among the twelve holy spirits in the country. They were very surprised when they saw it. This ninth stone statue was only for one.

Just squatting on a stone, a blur.

Jiuling followed the two of them and saw this, his head shook happily, as if he was very happy to see his stone statue like this.

The stone statue between the Nine Spirits and the Millennium Crane King is a scorpion. It is the first stone statue to be viewed by Yi Zhenren and others. The scorpion lies sideways on the stone. It is more than two feet long all year round. Its tail spines stand high. Although it is carved from stone,

But it's also scary.

Jiuling followed the two of them with great interest, but the Qinghai-Tibetan Mastiff King seemed not to dare to look at it, and only followed Qin Henyu and the Fourteenth Young Master!

If Chen Guan and Xuezi didn't know about the twelve holy spirits in Zhenguo, and didn't happen to know that the Millennium Crane King had "seven" on his body and "nine" on the soles of Jiuling's feet, they would definitely be the same as Qin Shishi Shao and others.

Pay attention to the stone statues.

But now the two of them were very shocked: "It turns out that the Twelve Holy Spirits are them. There really are twelve Holy Spirits! Biyou Benlei Jue was unearthed on June 6 in Jiuding Iron Temple Mountain. Could it be the sixth stone statue of the Northeast White Tiger?

A golden statue guarding there?"

And they can see from the stone statues of the Millennium Crane King that these stone statues are likely to be one to one. The stone statues are as tall as the Crane King is! Then the other holy spirits, which are several feet or more than ten feet tall, are indeed of this size.

Got it!

Tie Jiuhua and Master Shouyue were carefully searching such an empty and huge cave, when they suddenly heard Qin Shishi Shao shouted loudly: "Grandpa, everyone come here quickly, there is someone here!"

Chen Guan and Xuezi were shocked when they heard what the Fourteenth Young Master Qin said!

"Impossible, I searched with the Qi Detection Technique before entering the cave. There was no human breath, even the weak animal breath was gone now! Although these masters of Xuanmen can't teach the Heaven and Earth Qi Detection Technique among the Nine Techniques

, but they also have their own search for spiritual energy! If there was someone, they would have been discovered long ago. How could the Fourteenth Young Master Qin find him?" Chen Guan and Xuezi were surprised, but they still hurried over.

Sure enough, more than thirty feet away, at the outermost and deepest place of all the stone statues, leaning against the stone wall, there was indeed a feathered guest sitting in the air.
