I smiled bitterly and said: "Yes, you will threaten me. If you don't tell me, I won't ask. Let's see how many years you can keep guard. When you are old and can't walk anymore, who will listen to whom when we see you again?"
.”
"You little bastard, you are so cowardly that you dare to bear grudges against me. Damn it, my king has been so majestic all his life, why did he give birth to such a fucking grandson like you? What a misfortune for our family."
I rolled my eyes at him and stopped arguing with him. At this time, he said, "Okay, I'll tell you everything I can tell you. It's useless for you to know the rest that you shouldn't know. This place is too dangerous."
, please follow me later and make sure nothing goes wrong, otherwise you may have to explain it here."
At this moment, two lights lit up dozens of meters away from us. I heard the old man sigh and cursed "idiot". Before I understood what he meant, I saw several huge black lights.
The shadow jumped straight from the trap to the light, and with two screams, everything became quiet again.
But those two electric lamps fell to the ground, and through the light I saw a horrifying sight. Several huge black shadows were hovering in the air, each with a body several meters long, and they suddenly swooped down.
He grabbed the bodies of the two people on the ground and flew them into the air again. Several others immediately came over to fight for them, and soon tore the two people into pieces and then devoured them all.
Only then did I see clearly that the huge black shadow was a huge bird. Seeing the long pointed beak, I immediately thought of the scene I saw on the ghost locust tree before, when the huge hairy insect was
It was picked up by such a long pointed mouth.
But I didn't see the whole thing at the time. Now I find that this giant bird is bigger than I imagined, with a wingspan of more than three meters. Its whole body is gray and black. The most strange thing is that each one actually has two heads.
Not horizontally, but two heads up and down. The lower head is very small, but its mouth is very pointed and long, while the upper head is very fat, with a short mouth, which is always raised high. When eating, it
The lower head picks up food and stuffs it into the upper mouth, just like a symbiotic relationship.
The old man said that I just realized that these two heads have a detailed division of labor. The upper head is the brain, commanding the entire body, while the lower head is equivalent to a tool, responsible for hunting and feeding. Only by destroying the upper head can it
will die.
I was very shocked. I didn't expect that there were such creatures in reality, but I felt at ease when I thought of those words. The world is so big, and there are all kinds of wonders. Who can tell clearly how many mysteries exist in this vast world that no one knows about?
The two-headed birds flew directly upwards after eating. Only then did I notice that the rock wall above was crisscrossed with thick and thin tree roots. The two-headed birds grabbed the roots with their claws.
The arms are folded, the ones on the head and feet are hanging down, and the body is tightly wrapped with the wings. At first glance, it looks like hanging stalactites.
What makes people's scalp numb is that the two-headed birds that exist here are not just the ones I saw. They are hanging densely on the roots of the trees and everywhere. In the darkness, the pairs of eyes are faintly glowing red.
You wouldn't be able to spot it if you didn't look carefully.
No wonder the old man asked me to turn off the lights when he saw me. At that time, I thought he was afraid of being discovered, but it turned out that he was guarding against these birds. Thinking about my state at that time, I was frightened. If the old man hadn’t reminded me, I would probably be here now.
It has already entered the bird's belly.
"Follow me." The old man whispered, then grabbed my clothes and pulled me to the side into the darkness.
The place was large and empty, and the ground was very smooth, because in the darkness we didn't touch anything along the way, and of course, we didn't hear any sounds.
About ten minutes or so, the old man stopped, and I felt my eyes light up. He had turned on the flashlight. I couldn't help but be shocked, and looked up quickly. I was relieved when I didn't find those two-headed birds.
The old man shined his flashlight forward, and I immediately saw a small lake a few meters in front of us. It was no more than a hundred meters in diameter. The surface of the lake was very calm without any waves. The water was also very clear, but I couldn't see the bottom. It looked very deep and mysterious.
"Do you know what this is?" The old man glanced at me, and before I could answer, he said, "This is the real Qinling Sacred Lake."
My heart was shocked, and I had the feeling of parting the dark clouds and seeing the sunrise. I always thought that the floating Zhenlong Platform I saw before was the Qinling Sacred Lake, but I didn't expect that the real Sacred Lake is here. But I took it for granted.
, it is said that there is a big secret hidden in the Qinling Sacred Lake. If it was so easy to find, it would not be possible for thousands of years for no one to solve this ancient mystery.
"Look further up." The old man moved the light upwards, and I was immediately shocked. A huge tree root dozens of meters long hung down from above and broke off ten meters above the water, but that
However, many roots grew out of the broken part, coiled together like a basket, and formed a huge ball. The ball was seventy or eighty meters in diameter, almost covering the entire lake. From below, it looked perfect.
, you can’t see the scene inside the ball at all.
"What is this? Can tree roots grow like this?" I said with a shocked face, and my heart was filled with ups and downs. This was much more spectacular than the houses made of branches I saw above.
The old man glanced at me sideways and cursed: "Look at your weird appearance, you are really worthless. Don't you feel that we are in such a ball now?"
I was stunned and said: "How is it possible? Are you saying that the rock walls around us are full of tree roots?"
"Of course, this is called the 'Sancai Coffin', also called the 'Three Worlds Coffin'. It is a composite coffin that surpasses the earth coffin and is second only to the sky coffin. Because the entire tree is made of living wood, it is also called the 'living tree'.
coffin'."
The three talents are the people of heaven and earth, and this giant ghost locust tree is the medium to communicate with the people of heaven, earth, and the human position is the most critical place. In other words, the giant tree is like a giant dragon. In front of us
The tree root that is tens of meters thick is the main root of the tree, which is also the "dragon root". This root was artificially cut off. Originally, the dragon was about to take off, but if the root is broken, it will naturally not be able to fly.
The anger will sink, and the place where it sinks is where the precious eye is, which is among the ten thousand roots.
This method is very rough, and the principle is easy to understand. It is also because people at that time only had the concept of Feng Shui, and the specific theory had not yet been fully formed. Naturally, there would not be such complex and changeable local Feng Shui settings. Everything was
It is nature, that is, this kind of nature, that makes people feel that it is magical and incredible.
I asked the old man, what is the function of the lake? Now that this Feng Shui treasure land has been established, isn’t the lake redundant?
The old man rolled his eyes at me and said: "You know what the hell, without that lake, this would still be a geomantic treasure land? That lake is not called a lake, but called 'Hualong Pond'. Dragon roots originally grew in that lake, so
It is the place where the vitality gathers and the dragon is born. This Feng Shui treasure cave originates from here. The dragon is called 'Wangtian', and the lake is 'Julong'. That is the foundation of the entire Feng Shui treasure place."
"According to what you say, isn't the lake more noble than the dragon?"
"That's natural, but because it's too noble, it can't bury humans. It can only bury immortals."
"Bury the Immortal?" I was shocked. Is there really such a thing in this world?
I asked the old man, but he looked at me with a hopeless look and said: "You ask me how I know, that is just a theory, and no one has verified it, who knows what nonsense a fairy is?
Maybe it's people with some special abilities, maybe it's something that people think of after seeing some kind of vision, maybe it's just a freak in people's minds, anyway, your grandfather and I have never believed in that in my whole life.
Plant something.”
"Okay, okay, stop it. I know I asked a stupid question, but according to you, there must be a big shot from ancient times buried here?"
"That's for sure. In fact, I suspect that the reason why the cavemen here disappeared is because of this treasure place."
"What do you mean? Could it be that the cavemen here buried all their property with a certain big shot, and then committed suicide en masse?"
This time, the old man didn't say anything to me, but gave me a shock. "Little bastard, can you use your brain?"
"It's because I don't want to use my brain. It's because you said it so suddenly that I wasn't mentally prepared at all."
"Well, this is all my fault. Let me ask you, if we don't know each other, but I know you have a treasure, if I force you to ask for it, will you give it to me?"
"Then let's see what happens. If you are empty-handed, I will definitely beat you up, but if you have a gun in your hand, then I can only give it to you. After all, no matter how precious the treasure is, it is not as valuable as life.
.”
"That's true. People at that critical time were not so enlightened, and people who robbed things were not so kind."
An idea flashed in my mind and I waved my hand: "Stop talking, I understand. You are saying that outsiders came to seize this treasure land, and a war broke out between the two parties, which led to the demise of the cave dwellers here.
Bar?"
It should be like this. The old man said. In my opinion, the outside world must have been in troubled times at that time, and the people who found this place were just some defeated small country. After occupying this place, they reopened and expanded it. At the entrance of the cave
The stone houses there should be similar to a military station such as a checkpoint fortress, and that stone city was the center of the country, but because something happened, that place was abandoned.
I made some guesses in this regard. The reason why they abandoned this place should be due to problems in life, food sources, and living supplies. But the most likely thing is that they may have found some threat here.
