Chapter 762: Stone Staircase in the Underground Palace
After Long Gongjin informed Liu Xiang of the situation in the underground palace, Liu Xiang immediately ordered Yu Cang to select many soldiers and follow Sang to the location of the underground palace.
What surprised everyone was that in their opinion, Sang might only have a rough idea of the location of the underground palace.
But the soldiers still need to drill holes in many ways before they can be sure.

However, Sang pointed to a flat slope near Liu's manor and said directly:
"This is it. You don't have to dig very fast. It only takes about one foot."
“Just dig deeper and stop when you feel the shovel hits something very hard.”
The soldiers took out relevant tools and started working.
When the Feng Shui master saw this, he couldn't help asking:
"Taoist Priest...why do you know so much about the situation in the underground palace?"
"It looks like...the Taoist priest has experienced it himself."
Sang's eyes were slightly closed, but he couldn't hear the temptation in the Feng Shui master's words.
After all, although he revealed the secret of Qing Gong, he did not tell anyone that he knew that Qing Gong was because of his split half.
Therefore, in the eyes of the three of them, it does not make sense that they can clearly know the location of the underground palace.
Tadu@ "Well..." Sang Youyou said, "Actually, even if you look at me, I seem to have a very young face."
"If we really talk about age, I should be older than everyone here combined."
"It's not surprising that an old antique knows some secret things."
The executioner on the side couldn't help but sneered a few times after hearing this, obviously not believing even a single word.
Long Gongjin glanced at Sang with some confusion, because he saw in Sang's eyes... that the other party didn't seem to be lying.
The Feng Shui master remained silent.
The three of them are actually smart people.
Seeing Sang using the matter of age as a sly excuse, one realizes that Sang still has a secret of his own in this matter.
In fact, Sang did have his own plans.
As a person who has lived a little longer than others, if his life is strictly counted, it can be counted from the Ming Dynasty.
Tadu@ After experiencing the division of soul and body one after another, with the current xinxing as an independent individual, it would only last seventy or eighty years.
However, several consecutive incidents in the world of mortals actually made Sang understand that his life span was running out.
Everyone is afraid of death, especially the practice of the Yinshan Sect, which is not based on cultivating one's moral character.
So...if the Changsheng Palace can have what he needs, that would be the best!
suddenly:
"Dong dong dong!"
It was like the sound of iron being struck.
Yu Xing immediately raised his head and looked at Sang:
"Taoist Master, Mr. Aaron seems to have an idea."
Sang nodded, jumped up like a wild goose, and landed lightly into the pit that was already several meters deep.

Soon, the Feng Shui master and others also jumped down.
Sang squatted down and carefully touched the gravel and soil on the ground. Suddenly he seemed to have touched something, and his eyes suddenly lit up.
"Found it!"
As he said this, Sang grabbed an object among the sand and gravel and pulled hard.
"Boom!"
A ring with a chain was pulled up by Sang.
Immediately afterwards, there was a thunderous roar, accompanied by the sound of the gear machine rotating.
On the stone walls on the side, soil and sand began to fall off.
After a moment, what came into view was a stone door!
The height of the stone gate is two feet, and there are many dense pictures engraved on it.
In the picture, countless people are making worship movements towards the center.
Among those kneeling down, even at the very core, there were some people wearing the costumes of Qing Dynasty princes and nobles.
Even the fanatical expressions on these people's faces were carved lifelike.
And what they worshiped devoutly was the lotus in the center!
The lotus flower slowly bloomed, and no gods or Buddhas were seen on it.
"These people...are kneeling down to worship this lotus?" Long Gongjin frowned: "Does this have any meaning?"
Sang's eyes lit up, and his vaguely calculating expression was also noticed by the executioner and Feng Shui master on the side.
Yu Cang came over and asked:
"Taoist Master, do you need us to blast this place?"
"If necessary, we will start installing explosives now."
Tadu@ Sang shook his head:
"This is connected to the dragon vein. If it is blasted with explosives, it may damage the terrain."
"I have other ways."
"Yu Heng, please let the soldiers leave."
Yu Xing was stunned for a moment, and just when he was about to speak, the executioner sneered from the side:
"The interior of the underground palace must be extremely dangerous."
"Let them follow. They can also be used as cannon fodder at critical moments."
As soon as he said these words, whether he was still frightened or not, there was a trace of displeasure between his brows.
But due to the executioner's brutality, they didn't say anything.
The soldiers who had stopped working naturally heard this one by one, but they remained silent and did not speak.
In this troubled world, for most people, being a soldier is not about glory or the country.
After all, before Japan entered, the whole of Kyushu was in a period of civil war among warlords.
Being a soldier is just to make a living in this dangerous world.
Sang looked at the eyes of these young people and saw that there was no trace of vitality in their eyes. He knew that the rumors that the supplies and equipment of the Sichuan Army were dilapidated were true.
Immediately, Sang retorted:
"The place we are going to enter, to put it bluntly, if you don't have enough moral integrity, even a thousand cannon fodder won't be enough for you."
"I was taught by my father and mother, but what the executioner said was a bit cruel."
Saying that, Sang glanced at Yuxin:
"Let them leave. The problems in the underground palace are not something they can interfere with."
"Even if you have a gun, it won't work."
Yu Xing breathed a sigh of relief. As an adjutant, he naturally knew that this place was dangerous.
Seeing that Sang seemed to have no intention of sacrificing his men, his eyes were full of gratitude:
"So...thank you Taoist Master for your mercy."
After saying that, the soldiers left the pit one after another with lingering fear.
Seeing the lingering fear of leaving, Sang couldn't help but say:
"Aren't you leaving?"
Yu Xing shook his head:
"I am the adjutant, representing the commander-in-chief. The Taoist priest was invited by us to help solve the trouble here. Naturally, I can't leave."
Sang disagreed:
"But...it's very dangerous inside."

But the lingering fear is also very stubborn.
Seeing this, Sang shook his head helplessly:
"Okay, but remember, don't handle everything you see in the underground palace according to your own common sense."
"Just stay with me."
With that said, Sang came to the stone gate.
As soon as the dust was swept away, a gloomy wind blew.
Bursts of thick fog emerged from under everyone's feet.
Immediately afterwards, murmuring and whimpering sounds were heard, accompanied by countless flesh and blood skeletons, struggling out of the thick fog.
This scene made everyone look shocked.
As ordinary people, they naturally have a natural fear of ghosts and gods.
It was at this moment that the three members of the Ten Divisions of Zouyin saw Sang's cultivation.
"Well... the Taoist master's cultivation level... can no longer be described by just a few armors."
"This kind of method of communicating with the underworld with every gesture, even if it is a mausoleum guard who is good at summoning souls and a member of the Dageng family, I'm afraid..."
For a time, the three of them each had doubts in their minds.
But he saw flesh and blood skeletons quickly covering the entire stone gate.
Immediately afterwards, Sang's sleeves and robes fluttered. Thousands of Yinshan spells flew up in the cold wind, like falling rain, and stuck to the backs of these flesh and blood skeletons.
Immediately:
"Hiss..."
The flesh-and-blood skeletons all turned into blood, turning the entire stone gate red.
As a gust of fishy wind blew by, the huge stone door began to dissolve at a speed visible to the naked eye!

Such a mysterious method made even the executioner frown.
Glancing out of the corner of his eye, Sang noticed that the expressions of the people behind him were different, and the corners of Sang's mouth curved slightly.
It seems... the shock is enough.
"Everyone, let's go in!"
As he spoke, Sang twitched his whisk, and in the pitch-black tunnel that appeared in front of him, flames ignited from the spell and attached to the stone wall.
If you look closely, you will see a long corridor with no end in sight.
Sang turned around and took a look, and Yu Xing followed immediately.
Immediately:
"Everyone, Adjutant Yu Cang and I will go in first. Remember to follow us."
With that said, the two stepped into the tunnel.
Tadu@ And a strange scene happened.
There were clearly lights on both sides, but the moment the two entered, their figures disappeared from sight.
"Huh?" The Feng Shui master frowned and took out the nine-story palace bell staff: "Is this an illusion?"
With that said, the Feng Shui master also stepped into it.
Long Gongjin and the executioner looked at each other, and the latter grinned with a hint of danger:
"Wu Zuo, why don't you invite me first?"
Long Gongjin swallowed slightly, he was still quite afraid of this executioner.
I'm really afraid that if he's not careful, he'll go crazy and end this generation of evil spirits.
But...it seems more dangerous to walk behind alone.
Immediately, Long Gongjin took out his medicine gourd and stepped into the tunnel.
The executioner sneered twice and stepped into it.
At this moment, a creepy atmosphere suddenly enveloped him.
The executioner immediately turned around and looked around, only to see that the back was not a hole at all, but a dark area.
When he turned around again, he saw that Long Gongjin, who was there just now, was gone!
The executioner murmured: "I really saw a ghost. Is there really something dangerous here?"
Doubtful in his heart, the executioner continued to walk forward, but he never noticed that the ghost-headed sword behind him suddenly opened his eyes with that ghostly face. And blood beads kept coming out of the tip of the knife, which fell to the ground and quietly exploded.
…
As an ordinary person's lingering fear, even with Sang's protection, I was still a little afraid at this time.
But as a soldier, he didn't want to appear too vulnerable.
Sang said slowly:
"Adjutant Yuchang, you don't have to worry too much."
"You are a soldier, and you are protected by the killing energy of the battlefield. Ordinary evil spirits dare not approach you."
"But...if you feel there is anything incongruous and weird, you must tell me."
Yu Xing nodded.
At this time, Sang lit up the charm.
As if he knew there was no one behind him, he just took care of Yu Xie and ignored the three members of the Ten Yin Division.
"Tick-tock...tick-tock..."
The sound like the sound of water drops suddenly sounded from my ears.
In the faint light of the fire, Sang looked around and found that the span of each level of the stone staircase under his feet was very large.
Gradually, the originally narrow stone wall disappeared.

Instead, there was thick darkness.
Seeing this, Yu Xing couldn't help but swallowed.
Just because the flames kept burning, but apart from illuminating the two of them, there was still darkness all around them.
It's like...the firelight is restricted.
suddenly:
"Ta...ta...ta...ta..."
The sound of water drops began to become more frequent.
Sang suddenly stopped and raised the dust in his hand, indicating that the lingering fear should stop.
"Taoist Priest, what...what happened?"
Sang didn't say anything, but handed Yu Cang a charm:
"Bite it in your mouth. No matter what happens, you must ensure that the charm is in your mouth."
"That way, you'll be fine."
"Also, no matter what you see later, don't be afraid, don't look back, and don't stop, just follow me, do you understand?"
Yu Xing quickly took the spell, nodded heavily, and held it in his mouth.
At this moment, Yu Heng discovered with horror that he... didn't seem to be breathing anymore?
However, I am obviously continuing to breathe, but I can't feel the airflow of my breath?
In the midst of doubt, a voice suddenly came to my ears:
"Yangxi, where is my coffee?"
I was stunned for a moment, this voice was... a handsome man?
He subconsciously wanted to turn around, but suddenly remembered Sang's reminder.
This book~. First release: Tadu *小@说-APP& - free of charge, no ads, no pop-ups, and you can *@ interact with book friends^.
He thought he might have encountered something bad, so he swallowed with fear, still holding the charm in his mouth, lowering his head slightly, pretending not to hear and continued walking forward.
"Lingering fear...why do you keep staring at me?"
Liu Xiang's voice of inquiry reached his ears again.
Yu was stunned for a moment.
Didn't you...have been staring at the ground?
Why are you staring at the handsome man?
As soon as he thought about it in his mind, his steps subconsciously stopped.
At this moment, he realized that what he was stepping on was not a stone staircase, but a face!
That's...Liu Xiang's face.
Liu Xiang suddenly laughed, and for a moment, his eyes began to turn red:
"I caught you..."
With a hint of playfulness, the face under his feet began to turn red quickly, as if he had been placed in boiling water. As the blisters burst one by one, they looked like a piece of boiled and rotten pork!
Next moment:
"Wow..."
A pair of hands suddenly stretched out from under his feet.
The hands were very cold, and the moment they touched the lingering feet, the swollen flesh and blood began to peel off the bones bit by bit.
The thick white bones, like sharp blades, instantly pierced Yu Yu's ankle.
Yu's face suddenly turned pale, and he let out a shrill scream.
