Zhuge Yushu told me that there is a rumor among the Zhuge Yi family that Yaolong Ridge was not so scary back then, and the reason why it became what it is today is because many years ago, a mysterious thing was buried in Yaolong Ridge.
The body of an abandoned baby.
The body of the abandoned baby was very unusual. A normal person would be born after ten months of pregnancy, but the abandoned baby stayed with his mother for three full years. In the end, the abandoned baby's mother was unable to leave the baby.
After the baby was born, she couldn't stand the rumors and was kicked out of the house by her husband. So, the young mother begged all the way, and finally came to Yaolong Ridge unknowingly...
Not long after, someone saw the body of the young mother at the border of Yaolong Ridge, but there was a huge bloody hole in her belly, and the child inside was missing.
It was a child that had been in the mother's belly for three years. When the mother died, her belly burst into a bloody hole, and even the child was missing. At first, people thought that the mother had been attacked by a wild beast, and the baby in her belly was
The child was also gouged by wild animals.
But a few months later, it was rumored that some people often heard the cries of babies at the border of Yaolong Ridge, which became more and more clearly audible especially at night. A few brave people went there one night
Following the baby's cry, they entered Yaolong Ridge, but none of these people came back until a few days later.
As soon as these people disappeared, another group of people entered Yaolong Ridge in order to find them. But the strange thing was that three groups of people entered Yaolong Ridge in a row, but in the end no one came out of Yaolong Ridge.
At this point, Yaolong Ridge began to become very strange. Babies cried loudly at night, and during the day, heavy snow fell and the mist was misty... Later, Yaolong Ridge gradually became barren of grass, and nearby tribes and residents stayed away from this place. In the end,
Those who left the vicinity of Yaolong Ridge were the Mu clan.
So in the final analysis, the initial horror of Yaolong Ridge came from this mysteriously missing baby. As for the Dragon Niche Cave, it was overshadowed by the baby's incident.
After listening to Zhuge Yushu's words, I couldn't help but frown!
This matter is a bit difficult to handle...
Zhuge Liang's mausoleum is in the Dragon's Nest Cave, but we haven't even found the Dragon's Nest Cave yet, but we first stepped into the muddy waters of Yingsha.
The road ahead in Yaolong Ridge is long, and there must be more Yingsha and even Blood Infants waiting for us. Finding the Dragon Niche Cave is not an easy task.
I glanced at everyone and saw Su Jin's eyes fluttering, and then said: "Little man, have you forgotten something?"
"What's up?"
"Giggle, you forgot the blood compass we found in Yueying Mountain. With it, we can find Zhuge Liang's tomb faster." Su Jin said playfully.
It dawned on me!
"How could I forget about this!" I patted my head and my heart suddenly moved.
Yes, doesn’t the young master still have a blood compass on his body? Using it to find Zhuge Liang’s mausoleum will naturally get twice the result with half the effort.
I quickly brought up the Blood Compass. Since I got this thing from Huang Yueying's tomb, I have never been able to show it off.
The blood compass is only as big as the palm of your hand, with a thin pendulum tied to it, and it is full of blood. Legend has it that this blood compass was made by Huang Yueying, Zhuge Liang's ugly wife, with all the hard work, so it is stained with Huang Yueying's hard work.
.
"Sister Su, if you want to find Zhuge Liang's tomb, what should you use as a guide?" I asked humbly. Su Jin's knowledge of the Blood Compass is much better than mine.
"Gee, this isn't easy. Don't you have the best guide to Zhuge Liang's tomb in front of you?" Su Jin said.
I was startled, and my eyes fell on the expressionless Zhuge Yushu.
"Zhuge Liang is the ancestor of Mu Mu. They are passed down by blood. Using his blood as a guide, we can naturally find Zhuge Liang's tomb, right?" I said happily.
"clever."
With Su Jin's advice, I immediately handed the blood compass to Zhuge Yushu, thinking that since he had lost so much blood anyway, it would be no problem to get some more to use as a guide for the blood compass.
But Zhuge Yushu didn't seem very happy. No matter what I said, this guy just kept silent and had an expressionless face, like a piece of wood.
"To save face, can you prick some blood to cover it?" I said with a smile.
Zhuge Yushu remained unmoved.
I was a little unhappy and felt that Zhuge Yushu was deliberately trying to make things difficult for me.
"Tell me, what do you want?" I said.
Zhuge Yushu then raised his head and glanced at me, and said in a cold tone: "I can shed blood as a guide, but you cannot damage the tombs of our ancestors brick by brick."
"What a big deal! I promise you that I will never damage any brick or stone in Zhuge Liang's tomb. If you break the contract, Zhou Xiaoshe will be struck by lightning from the sky and die badly." I vowed.
Zhou Xiaoshe on the side was stunned for a moment, and almost raised his fist to rush over...
After swearing the oath, Zhuge Yushu slowly stretched out his finger and gently scraped the sword blade, dripping blood on the blood compass.
Several people glanced over, wanting to see the work of Huang Yueying, the most skilled craftsman in the Three Kingdoms.
As Zhuge Yushu's blood dripped down, the simple and silent blood compass suddenly began to spin rapidly, as if it had been injected with chicken blood. It spun dozens of times before slowing down.
Stopped.
I was dumbfounded. This Feng Shui compass is really not fake. It contains mysteries and mysteries that ordinary people cannot understand. Now, as soon as Zhuge Yushu's blood fell on the compass, the pointer really pointed us in a direction...
…
I looked in the direction and saw that it was deep in Yaolong Ridge, covered in snow and mist.
"It's much easier with this thing, Niubi, monk, take everything with you and let's set off!" I said happily.
Zhou Xiaoshe was also very excited. This guy was restless by nature and had always dreamed of opening the tomb of a famous person in ancient times and becoming famous. Now, Zhuge Liang's tomb is his best chance to become famous.
The atmosphere among the group was quite happy, but only the master monk frowned. This guy was looking at the direction pointed by the blood compass, with a somewhat dazed expression on his face.
"Monk, what's wrong?" I couldn't help but ask.
The monk pondered for a few seconds, shook his head and said: "Anita Buddha, God has the virtue of good life, but here, there is no sun and sky, it is a place of great danger..."
"No matter what happens, whether it's bad or bad, we'll make peace with it as it comes. We'll take it one step at a time. If it doesn't work, we'll retreat." I said.
The Zhangzhi monk gave a weird forced smile, but didn't say anything more...
With the guidance of the Blood Compass, everything is much simpler. We only need to move in the direction guided.
As we entered the depths of Yaolong Ridge, it became darker and darker, with snowflakes and mist everywhere filling our eyes. At the back, due to the gradually decreasing visibility, we had to walk in groups hand in hand, with the ground under our feet
The snow is almost up to your knees. Once you step down, you can occasionally hear the crisp sound of bones breaking. They are bones that have been buried deep under the snow for many years...
We don't care about the dead. Under the heavy snow with visibility less than three to five meters, sometimes we look around at a loss. Often we can only see a hand holding our own. As for the owner of the hand, we often don't know.
Not easy to see clearly.
I was still leading the way with the blood compass, thinking that I had to find a place to rest tonight.
Zhou Xiaoshe is still behind.
After the group of people walked hand in hand for a long time, Zhou Xiaoshe's voice suddenly came.
Amidst the falling snowflakes, I could only hear Zhou Xiaoshe saying: "Old Tie, please take a break. I can't walk anymore. The monk keeps holding me."
As soon as Zhou Xiaoshe finished speaking, my mind suddenly froze.
I quickly looked back and saw clearly that the owner of the hand I was holding was none other than the monk.
I was the leader, and the monk was always behind me. Zhou Xiaoshe was at the end of the team. How could this guy say that the river was pulling him?
I was filled with doubts, so I looked back and saw two dark figures dimly visible at the back of the team. One of them was as thin as a monkey, no doubt Zhou Xiaoshe, and behind him
, there is indeed another figure, but that person is definitely not a monk.
I carefully looked around a few more times. Zhuge Yushu was also there, Su Jin, Yueyao, Shi Ying, and Mu Sixuan were all watching, but the figure behind Zhou Xiaoshe could not be seen clearly.
The stupid Zhou Xiaoshe thought that the owner of the figure was a monk, and this would make her feel particularly affectionate...
"I said, monk, why are your hands so cold?"
"Monk, do you have something to eat? Give me some..."
Zhou Xiaoshe muttered, but the figure behind him ignored him.
"Grandma, you're a bear. Monk, you have water in your ears. I'm calling you!"
Zhou Xiaoshe shouted several times, but when he saw that the person behind him still didn't catch him, he immediately jumped in front of the person angrily, and reached out to grab the person's head.
Unexpectedly, Zhou Xiaoshe grabbed a piece of sticky meat from the face of the man behind him with a gentle scratch.
Zhou Xiaoshe was so shocked that he was instantly frightened!
"Grandma, you're a bear, what's going on..."
At this time, the wind and snow had subsided a little, and Zhou Xiaoshe could clearly see the figure behind him. It was not the Zhangzhi monk, but a rotten corpse covered with honeycomb-like holes. As soon as he stretched out his hand to grab it, it was directly
A piece of flesh was scratched off the corpse's face.
The corpse stood like this in the wind and snow, its rotting face was covered with dense holes, and in its eye sockets, the pair of eyeballs had long since disappeared, replaced by two groups of wriggling white worms.
Zhou Xiaoshe was completely frightened.
What's even worse is that the corpse suddenly moved. It opened its bloody mouth and bit Zhou Xiaoshe's head.
"Grandma, you're a bear. When did a corpse appear? Help me, help me..."
Zhou Xiaoshe is calling for help!
Fortunately, I had already seen this scene, and I did not allow the corpse's mouth to get close to Zhou Xiaoshe. I had already pulled out the dagger in my hand and chopped off the corpse's head to the ground.
The head of the corpse rolled down silently, and behind it, the figure of an infant suddenly emerged, and then quickly disappeared into the heavy snow...
