Chapter 407 Human Skin Painting Scroll

 What appeared in front of everyone were two huge stone doors that were ajar. There was a doorless stone chamber on the left and right sides of the stone door. Two gems, one blue and one red, were embedded on the upper edge of the stone chamber door.

I walked over and looked inside, and found that the two stone chambers were much wider than they looked from the outside. Not only were they very deep, but the domes were also very high. With the help of the burning butter lamps in the corners, I could clearly see the details inside.

The most eye-catching thing in these two stone chambers is the ghost-headed statue in the depths. Not only is this ghost-headed statue ugly and ferocious, but its material is also very special. It looks the same as the two gems on the outer edge of the doorway.

"This should be the 'Ice Palace' and the 'Fire Palace'." Shirley Yang took out the rubbing again and pointed to one of the dots on the remaining map.

Because the map is incomplete, there is no sign corresponding to the stone door in front of you, but there are signs representing the two stone chambers.

"What does ice and fire mean?" Hu Bayi stared at the two ghost-headed statues and asked.

He felt that the mystery here might lie in the name.

"This should be what you are referring to." Chen Ziyan turned on the flashlight at some point and said while shining the light on the dome above his head.

Others followed the light of the flashlight and saw that there were many designs of seven-star ladybugs carved on the dome of the stone chamber.

"Dap ghost bug!" Hu Bayi's doubts suddenly disappeared and he said in a deep voice.

He didn't even need to guess, he knew that the pictures of the seven-star ladybugs above were referring to the Dap ghost bugs he had encountered before.

"'Ice Palace' and 'Fire Palace' should probably refer to this. As far as I know, the Dapu Ghost Insect has two completely different forms." Chen Ziyan followed up.

Because they didn't meet Naiqiong Shenbing on the road ahead, others still don't know that the Dapu ghost insect has another form at this moment, so he can only reveal the answer.

The reason why I first found the picture of the Dap Ghost Insect was to attract others.

"Another form of the Dapu ghost insect?" Hu Bayi looked over after hearing this.

"Dapu ghost bugs have two forms, one is the infinite karma fire we encountered before, and the other is the Neqiong Shenbing that can freeze everything." Chen Ziyan said.

He said this not to show off his knowledge, but also to remind others.

No matter which form the Dap Ghost Insect takes, they are not easy to deal with, and you must be careful and vigilant.

Now it seems that we are close to the hinterland of Erluohai City, and we cannot rule out the possibility of Dapu ghost insects taking over.

After seeing that others had listened to his words, Chen Ziyan said nothing more and took the lead in walking towards the door directly in front.

Because the two stone doors were both ajar and the gap in between was just big enough for them to pass through, Chen Ziyan and the others did not need to touch the two stone doors.

But the moment he walked to the stone door, Chen Ziyan suddenly felt a chill that penetrated his heart and soul, spreading from the soles of his feet throughout his entire body.

"Hiss--" Wang Kaixuan was following behind Chen Ziyan. At this moment, he was also shocked by the sudden chill. He couldn't help but said: "There must be something weird about this place. It's as cold as his grandma's."

Black Glasses was well-informed. After walking forward and feeling it, he warned everyone: "Be careful on the next road. The evil spirit here is too strong. It is probably not just weird."

After finishing speaking, he nodded towards Chen Ziyan, indicating that he could continue walking.

It's one thing to be evil, but it doesn't mean you need to shy away from it.

Chen Ziyan understood what he meant, shook his neck slightly, and walked towards the stone gate.

In fact, this evil spirit had no effect on him, because as soon as the coldness spread throughout his body, a warm current spontaneously appeared inside his body, dispelling all the coldness that invaded his body.

Behind the stone gate is a temple full of jewels, but the strange thing is that although there are many lights in the temple, it still gives people a dark feeling, and it is even difficult to see the situation a little further away.

Others also followed in at this time. When they saw Chen Ziyan standing there staring at the dim temple in front of him, meditating, they did not rush too deep into it. They all stood near the stone gate and looked at the temple.

"Master Chen, what did you find?" Hu Bayi approached Chen Ziyan and asked in a low voice.

"There's something wrong with the light here. Don't you think it's too dark?" Chen Ziyan told him what he found.

"Too dark?" Hu Bayi glanced at the temple and discovered this. After thinking about it, he shined the flashlight into the temple, but the beam of the flashlight seemed to be suppressed in some way, and the range was only

There are only a few meters left.

"What's going on? Is it light-absorbing paint?" When Hu Ba saw this result, he was a little confused as to what was going on.

"It's not like that." Chen Ziyan shook his head gently.

The effect of light-absorbing paint is not that good, and judging from the wall next to it, it doesn't look like it has been painted.

After finishing speaking, Chen Ziyan seemed to have thought of something, and turned his palm over and the Muchen Bead appeared in his palm.

At this moment, the Muchen Bead looks like an irregularly shaped jade ball. Although the jade material on the outside has been cut and peeled off once by skilled craftsmen, they are afraid of damaging the Muchen Bead inside, so they did not cut it so much.

Clean and difficult to restore.

Everyone else focused part of their attention on Chen Ziyan. When they saw that he suddenly took out the Muchen Bead, they all looked over.

Chen Ziyan just wanted to explain to everyone his idea of ​​doing this, but before he could say anything, he saw that after being taken out, the jade structure remaining on the surface of the Muchen Bead began to slowly dissolve and disappear.

, revealing the entirety of the Phoenix Guts.

It's as if there is some mysterious substance here that can decompose this jade structure.

And when the layer of residue outside the Muchen Bead completely disappeared, the dim lights in the temple suddenly surged, illuminating the entire temple.

It's like this Muchen Bead is the key to unlocking this place.

Seeing such a change, Chen Ziyan took back what he planned to say. The facts had already given him an answer. Although it was a little different from what he had imagined, there was no need to waste any more words.

"This is the true face of Muchen Bead!" Wang Kaixuan looked at Muchen Bead and marveled.

At this moment, Muchen Bead's appearance completely changed, and it suddenly looked like a ball of condensed flames. No wonder it had the name Phoenix Guts.

"Let's go and see what's inside this temple first." Seeing others coming over, Chen Ziyan immediately put the Muchen Pearl away again.

It's not that he doesn't want to let them see it, but that this thing is too precious now. It is related to the curse on several people in the team, and it cannot be missed. Therefore, after it has played its due role, it is safer to put it back in the portable space.
p>

What Chen Ziyan didn't know was that at the moment the Muchen Bead appeared, not only the sinkhole they were in, but also the entire underground world stopped at that moment.

If he continues to carry the Muchen Bead like this, then there will be successive underground creatures coming towards their location.

At this moment, the lights of the temple were brightly lit, and Chen Ziyan and the others were finally able to see clearly the details of the entire temple. The first thing they saw was the human skin scrolls covering almost all the walls. It was roughly estimated that there were at least hundreds of them.

This made everyone slightly stunned. The murals they had seen before were either painted on the walls or on special masonry. This kind of painting on human skin in a special way was really the first time.

Seen for the first time.

Speaking of which, this is the only picture scroll that Chen Ziyan and the others have seen from the Demon Kingdom itself.

There are pictures and words on these human skin scrolls. The pictures are okay, as long as you know how to read the murals, but those ancient symbols and words, even Shirley Yang, who has studied the most in this area, can only barely understand part of them.

That’s all.

Fortunately, there are corresponding pictures, and by reflecting each other, we can guess some of the content.

After looking at it carefully for a while, Shirley Yang frowned: "It does record some major events in the Demon Kingdom, but it is very different from the records in the long poem circulated by the King of the World's Enemy-Conquering Orb.

."

She has mastered a lot of information about the Snow Land, and naturally there will be no shortage of poems handed down by the Heavenly Singers, so she also knows some things about the Demon Kingdom.

"This is normal. History is often written by the victors." Chen Ziyan was not surprised.

Ever since he got different explanations from the blue-robed Tibetans, he already knew that the Demon Country was not as extreme as he originally knew.

He does not deny that the Demon Kingdom is the birthplace of the evil art, but this does not mean that mastering the evil art is absolutely evil. In fact, throughout history, the true and extremely pure evil is extremely rare. More often than not,

Whether it is evil or not is just a matter of stance.

Our hero is his enemy, this is the truth.

Shirley Yang nodded slightly when she heard this. This principle is common to both ancient and modern times, and she can understand it.

In fact, as she studied the snowy culture in depth, she had already had such an idea, but she had never been able to confirm it.

After researching for a while, Shirley Yang told everyone her findings.

From these human skin scrolls, we can know that the main city of the Demonic Kingdom is indeed the Evil Luohai City, and as the blue-robed Tibetans said, at its peak, the Demonic Kingdom’s rule covered the entire Kunlun region.
p>

The Demon Kingdom is a country different from other countries. There is no king in their political system. The rulers of the entire country are ghost mothers of all generations. All major decisions are based on divination.

"All decisions are made using divination? Why does this sound so unreliable?" After hearing this, Wang Kaixuan couldn't help but complain.

Although he, Wang, doesn't read much, he knows he can't do things like this.

"Shirley, is there any description about the ghost mother?" Chen Ziyan did not make a conclusion so early, but asked such a question.

He felt that there might be something wrong here. He knew about the selection ceremony of the Ghost Mother behind the Demon Kingdom, so he did not believe that the nobles who had the power would really trust the Ghost Mother.

Thinking of that cruel and bloody ritual, he felt that it would be an absolute lie if the ghost mothers of all generations did not hate those in power.

If it were him, he would not trust the ghost mother to have the power of life and death.

After all, the following ghost mothers are different from the first generation of ghost mothers, they are the ones who have truly mastered extraordinary power.

Chen Ziyan had doubts about the abilities of subsequent ghost mothers as early as after hearing the Tibetan people in blue robes say that the ability of the first generation of ghost mothers was to plunder snake gods and that they died accidentally.

He felt that the ghost mothers behind the Demon Kingdom were probably puppets that had been pushed out.

"Yes." Shirley Yang nodded, and then said: "It is said that every generation of ghost mothers are reincarnated in the world, so they never show their true colors to others, and always cover their faces, because their eyes can rival the 'Buddha's Eyes'

's demonic eye, but because of accidents in reincarnation, not every generation of ghost mothers has this ability. The more common ability of ghost mothers is to be able to control a giant eye called 'Jingjian Agama'

Snake."

Sure enough!

After hearing this, Chen Ziyan was finally convinced that his idea was not wrong.

The ghost mothers of the following dynasties were actually puppets that were pushed out. This kind of thing was not uncommon in ancient times, especially in this kind of alternative regime.

"By the way, the snake god was also mentioned above. It is said that the snake god is respected as the highest god, and the first generation of ghost mothers are the children of the snake god. Because of this, the ghost mother can master the magic eye and the pure sight of Agama.

That comes from the power of the snake god." Shirley Yang added with a strange expression.

The latter part of the content is different from what they know, or to be more precise, it is different from what the blue-robed Tibetans said.

"This is a normal thing. The source of power of many ancient clans will have similar descriptions." The blue-robed Tibetan said softly.

He had no choice but to remain silent at this time. After all, the matter about the first-generation ghost mother came from him.

"Speaking of this, I'm very curious as to why such a thing would happen. I can understand that the Demon Kingdom is here to strengthen their faith, but other ancient clans don't have to do this, right?" Chen Ziyan asked curiously.

This is not to embarrass the blue-robed Tibetans, but he is really curious about this issue.

"No matter what type of regime it is, the essence of rule is the same, and people are more willing to believe in what they can accept." The blue-robed Tibetan said quietly.

"That is to say...many of the so-called gods in history were in similar situations?" Chen Ziyan asked.

"That's right, the last time we in Kangbalo had contact with the outside world was in the early Ming Dynasty. Something happened at that time. I think you all have heard of it." The blue-robed Tibetan said slightly.
p>

"What do we know? Or in the early Ming Dynasty?" Chen Ziyan thought for a while, but he really couldn't think of what it was.

The beginning of every dynasty is magnificent, and there are countless events that happened. As a graduate of the archeology major, he is not only familiar with these, but he also knows about them.

But sometimes when he knows more, he has to face more choices. Just like now, his brain has been running at its fastest, but he cannot filter out the answer in the first time.

While Chen Ziyan was thinking hard, Hu Bayi's eyes suddenly lit up and he exclaimed: "Liu Bowen killed the dragon?"

Hearing Hu Bayi's words, Chen Ziyan's eyes suddenly lit up. He had focused on historical events from the beginning, and he really didn't expect this.
