"Listen, there seems to be the sound of water flowing!"
Yuan Gaowu, the leader of the Kunlun Sect, led his disciple Geng Hong and the others, Lu Chenzi, the leader of the Kongtong Sect, led his disciples, Zhang Boyun, the leader of the Diancang Sect, led his disciples, Yan Haojian of the Divine Sword Sect led his disciples Meng Yan and He
Yunxia and the others followed behind them, and everyone could clearly hear the sound of water flowing underneath the dark cave.
"We've reached the location of the underground river. Let's speed up and go down to take a look. Everyone, please pay attention to your steps..."
Yuan Gaowu held the Qimen Bagua Pan in his big hand. According to the instructions above, he led his disciples holding weapons and flashlights one by one, walking in the cave with strange rocks and uneven shapes, and followed the direction of the sound of the underground river.
…
Zhou Ruoxi, who was following Jin Xuan and Xu Hai's team, led Senior Sister Lu and Junior Sister He, followed behind Wudang Sect Zuoqi Elder and Longhushan Lin Yiping Tianshi, Zhang Xianer and Zi Qing followed, Qi Xiu and Chong Ling.
Son, Zhang Xingyue and Zhao Xuyan took flashlights and looked around in the dark cave...
"This cave is so big..."
Chong Ling'er took a flashlight and shined it on the top of the cave. The huge cave had a top height of more than 20 meters. The cool temperature inside the cave made people very comfortable. Seeing such a magical cave made everyone forget that it was hidden in the darkness.
danger…
"ah…"
As a result, screams were heard immediately from the front. A disciple of the Huashan Sect squatted down holding his feet and screamed in pain. He instinctively tore off the thing biting his left foot. When everyone found the thing with their flashlights, Geng Hong was shocked.
He yelled, "It's an Alxa viper, it's highly venomous!"
"Ah, what should I do?"
Lu Chenzi of the Huashan sect became nervous when he saw that his disciple was bitten by a poisonous snake: "Master Yuan, have you brought any medicine? Please treat my disciple quickly."
"Don't worry, Mr. Lu, we have brought medicine."
Yuan Gaowu immediately asked a disciple next to him to take out a bottle and pour out three black pills, and said: "This is a medicine we specially prepared based on the research on Alxa viper. It can suppress the attack of snake venom and save lives."
"Great, give it to him quickly..."
When Lu Chenzi heard that there was an antidote, he excitedly asked the disciple to take it, mainly because it could save his life.
Yuan Gaowu looked at the rest of the team behind him and reminded again: "There must be a lot of snakes around this underground river cave. Everyone should be careful where they step and make sure it is safe before leaving."
"Everyone, please be careful where you step..."
The people at the back of the team also conveyed that Yuan Gaowu and the others saw that the disciple of the Huashan Sect was fine, so they continued to go down the underground river...
The sound of running water got closer and closer. Ten minutes later, under the leadership of Yuan Gaowu and the others, Zhou Ruoxi, Zhang Xianer, Zi Qing and the others finally came to the edge of an underground river with a width of more than ten meters. Looking at the rapid underground river,
Everyone looked at the flashlights shining around, looking for anything else...
"How's it going, Master Yuan? Where is the snake demon?"
Lu Chenzi, Zhang Boyun, Yan Haojian and Elder Liao came over and watched Yuan Gaowu holding the Qimen Bagua Disk to find the location of the snake demon, but he raised his eyebrows and said: "It's strange, when we go to the underground river, the snake demon's
The breath has disappeared!"
These words made everyone present look at each other in confusion. Meng Yan from the Divine Sword Sect pointed at the underground river: "Isn't the snake demon under the underground river?"
Everyone's flashlights were shining on the fast-flowing underground river. Could it be that the snake monster Yuan Gaowu mentioned was underneath?
On the other side, Zhou Ruoxi, Senior Sister Lu and Junior Sister He were looking at other places on the bank of the dark river with flashlights, and suddenly shouted to Ling'er in front: "Look, there seems to be a door here!"
Yuan Gaowu, Yan Haojian, Lu Chenzi and the others all turned to look at Chong Ling'er. Elder Zuoqi, Tianshi Lin Yiping, Zhou Ruoxi and the others arrived first...
Sure enough, he looked at a door with a height of six meters and a width of more than three meters appearing on the edge of the underground river. Then he looked at the chisel marks on the stone wall and said, "This is a door chiseled by humans!"
"It was chiseled by humans...?"
Elder Liao, Elder Feng, and Sect Master Tan all looked at them one after another. Li Feiyu of Xingyi Sect stared and said: "Sect Leader Yuan said that the Divine Snake Clan originated from Kunlun. Could it be that under this cave is the original origin nest of the Divine Snake Clan?
?”
"Hey, don't tell me, it's really possible."
Sect Master Tan and Sect Master Hu Yidao of Dadao Sect nodded one after another. Even Yuan Gaowu and Lu Chenzi agreed: "Maybe this is really the original lair of the Divine Snake Clan."
"Oh, don't you stop talking nonsense, don't you know if you go in and find out what's going on?"
Yan Hao of the Divine Sword Sect gave them a white look, waved his hand, and led Meng Yan, He Yunxia and other disciples into the gate first. Yuan Gaowu raised his eyebrows slightly, motioning to disciple Geng Hong and the others, and quickly followed...
Lu Chenzi and Zhang Boyun also looked at each other and quickly followed with their disciples.
The heads of the Eagle Claw Sect, Dadao Sect, Xingyi Sect, and Shaolin’s Jin Xuan and Xu Hai also followed...
Finally, Elder Zuoqi and Tianshi Lin Yiping looked at Zhou Ruoxi for a few times and told them: "Everyone, be careful..."
As they spoke, everyone walked into the gate. This was an ancient corridor. The stone walls were all carved by people, and there were also bronze oil lamps. Yuan Gaowu and the others looked at the bronze lamp stands used for lighting the corridor with flashlights.
There were decorative patterns of snakes, and he said with certainty: "It seems that this is really the lair where the divine snake clan originated..."
"Great, let's go in and take a look. Maybe the Divine Snake Clan will leave a lot of things behind!"
Lu Chenzi and Zhang Boyun were excited when they heard this. Hou Feiying and Li Feiyu from the Eagle Claw Sect looked at each other and were secretly happy in their hearts. If they really got some martial arts secrets from the Divine Snake Clan, their trip would be in vain.
"Oh, you are really optimistic."
Yan Changjian looked at people like Liao Haikuo and Feng Yimin with disdain, and said jokingly: "This is not the only home of the Divine Snake Clan. When they moved, they probably took away all the good things, and there are still some good things left.
Did you miss something for you?"
These words made Lu Chenzi, Zhang Boyun, Tan Song and Hou Feiying look at each other, knowing that what Yan Haojian said made sense.
"Everyone, let's go in and take a look."
Yuan Gaowu said with the Qimen Bagua Pan in his hand, and continued to go into the dark corridor, because this time they came to find the snake demon who was about to practice and evolve into a dragon. Now they found the old lair where the divine snake tribe originated.
It was just an accident.
Yan Haojian is right. Hundreds of years ago, the Divine Snake Clan entered the Central Plains and moved to several places. Finally, at the beginning of the founding of the People's Republic of China, they were driven away from China and moved to Taiguo. From then on, they lost contact with China.
Therefore, even if this was the original lair of the Divine Snake Clan, there must have been nothing good left for future generations to pick up.
After passing through the corridor, I saw a huge bronze door, eight meters high and four meters wide. The thick bronze door was carved with rough snake-shaped reliefs...
Under the flashlights of Geng Hong and others, the snake on the relief has grown dragon horns, but has no limbs. It is flying in the clouds and mist, neither a snake nor a dragon...
"This is the snake form that appears when a snake evolves into a dragon!"
Yuan Gaowu said.
Lu Chenzi nodded and said: "Based on this, when the snake demon created the Divine Snake Clan, it was already in the form of a dragon snake."
"Now that so many years have passed, wouldn't it have evolved into a dragon?"
Zhang Boyun glared and guessed.
Hou Feiying asked in confusion: "How many years old is the Divine Snake Clan?"
Yuan Gaowu said: "I don't know the details, but there are records that it was almost three hundred years ago!"
"It's almost there, that is, less than three hundred years. If you think about it this way, that snake demon is indeed about to evolve into a dragon."
Elder Zuoqi said.
Heavenly Master Lin Yiping raised his eyebrows. The vision that appeared when they came in was extraordinary. He said: "It should be during this time!"
As soon as these words came out, everyone present looked surprised and turned to look at Lin Yiping. Yuan Gaowu nodded and said: "It seems that we have to find the snake demon before it evolves into a dragon, and kill it to eliminate harm to the people."
"Otherwise, if it evolves into a dragon, we won't be able to do anything to it!"
Lu Chenzi, Zhang Boyun, Elder Liao and others nodded.
"Open the door and go in and take a look."
Yan Haojian shouted, and many young disciples went up and pushed the heavy bronze door that had been covered with dust for a long time. With a rumbling sound, the door was slowly pushed open, and a huge space appeared, similar to a high-ceilinged door.
Main hall…
Yuan Gaowu personally took the flashlight and began to look around in this huge hall. The top was twenty meters high, and the murals clearly visible on it were all paintings of snakes evolving into dragons, and then evolving into real dragons...
The main hall has bronze pillars, which are also carvings of snakes. They are lifelike, like living creatures, which surprised Zhou Ruoxi, Lu Shuang, He Shanyue and Chong Ling'er.
"What a big gesture..."
Lu Chenzi, Zhang Boyun, Tan Song, Li Feiyu and others were also shocked by the decoration in this huge hall.
"Light all those kerosene lamps... "
As Genghong and the others lit up the bronze kerosene lamps in the hall, the whole hall became bright instantly. The black flags had a soaring snake pattern on them, which was the flag totem of the Divine Snake Clan. They were not covered with spider webs. The flags on the floor and the hall were
The stone chairs and tables are also covered with thick dust...
Above the main hall is a snake-shaped throne, which is the throne of the leader of the Divine Snake Clan. Looking at the layout of the hall, it should be the main hall where the Divine Snake Clan holds a conference.
"Sure enough, nothing was left behind..."
Everyone looked at the hall. Except for the stone chairs and tables that could not be moved, as well as bronze lamps, incense burners and bronze tripods, there was nothing of any value left. This made Lu Chenzi and Zhang Boyun disappointed.
"Let's look for those living rooms again, maybe there are still some missing ones."
Elder Liao did not give up and started looking around with his disciples...
Even Zhou Ruoxi and the others, following Elder Zuo Qi and the others, began to search in the rooms where they lived in the lair of the Divine Snake Clan. After more than half an hour, everyone returned to the main hall to gather with disappointment on their faces, shaking their heads:
"Not even a hair is left..."
"Oh, let's find the snake demon's whereabouts."
Lu Chenzi shook his head and sighed.
Zhang Boyun looked at Yuan Gaowu who was walking towards the throne on the steps of the main hall and shouted: "Master Yuan, don't you have the location of the snake demon yet?"
Yuan Gaowu, who was holding the Qimen Bagua Plate, frowned slightly, raised his head and said solemnly to everyone gathered in the hall: "Someone got there before us!"
