Chapter 769 The Residence of the Dead

This robbery cave is not big, only three feet wide, and goes straight down. Those who know it is a robbery cave, but those who don't know it think it is a well.

Wang Xinran rarely made the feminine gesture of covering her nose, but at this moment she covered her mouth and nose with her hands. There must be turbid air in ancient tombs, so she had to guard against it.

"That underground peach garden is down there, three feet above the ground." Wu Zhongyuan said.

"This is just a robbery cave. Where is the real entrance?" Wang Xinran asked.

Wu Zhongyuan shook his head, "The space underground is completely closed, with no entrance."

Wang Xinran needed to avoid the turbid air, but Wu Zhongyuan was not afraid and walked straight to the thief's cave and lowered his head to look down.

"What's down there?" Wang Xinran asked.

"Just go down and take a look and you'll find out," Wu Zhongyuan walked down slowly.

Originally, there were no steps in the Thief's Cave, but Wu Zhongyuan was able to make it so.

There was originally no light in the Thief's Cave, but Wu Zhongyuan was able to make it so.

After Wu Zhongyuan went down three steps, Wang Xinran followed in. At this time, the earth and stone steps were rapidly forming and extending downward. The light in the cave was very bright, there was no luminous point, and no one knew where the light source came from.

"Did you do this?" Wang Xinran was surprised.

Wu Zhongyuan nodded.

Wang Xinran tried to go down a few steps. When he completely entered the passage, he looked up and saw that it was still bright outside. It was obvious that Wu Zhongyuan had not withdrawn the part of the spiritual energy that condensed the fire ball.

Wang Xinran withdrew his gaze and followed Wu Zhongyuan, "How did you do it?"

Wu Zhongyuan didn't answer the question, "Now you know why I'm worried. I'm too powerful now. Let alone others, I'm even afraid of myself."

"Can you describe how powerful you are now?" Wang Xinran asked casually.

"No," Wu Zhongyuan shook his head, "I have been promoted to Taiyuan for too short a time, and I still don't have enough understanding of Taiyuan's cultivation, but I can give you an example so that you can have a general idea. "

"What do you mean?" Wang Xinran asked.

“Nezha, you should know.

"Wu Zhongyuan said.

"Are you on the same level as Nezha now?" Wang Xinran asked.

Wu Zhongyuan shook his head, "No, Nezha is a heavenly immortal, which is approximately equal to the cultivation level of the Three Spirits at this time. Taiyuan's cultivation level is equivalent to that of the Golden Immortal in later generations. It is at the same level as Nezha's master Taiyi Zhenren, and may be better than Taiyuan." Yi Zhenren is a little lower, but basically on the same level.”

Wang Xinran didn't answer any more. At this time, she had reached the bottom of the steps and saw the scene inside.

There is a cave on the left side of the end of the steps. The two of them are at the deepest part of the cave. The cave is not big, only the size of a house. At the entrance of the cave, there is a group of yellow-haired monkeys basking in the sun.

Wang Xinran was extremely shocked and looked around blankly.

"Isn't it interesting?" Wu Zhongyuan asked with a smile.

"What's going on?" Wang Xinran pointed at the entrance of the cave, "Why are there monkeys here, and how can there be light outside the cave?"

Wu Zhongyuan did not answer, but walked towards the group of monkeys. There were not many monkeys, only seven or eight, not big in size, with yellow hair all over their bodies, smart and cute.

"Isn't this an illusion?" Wang Xinran stared at the group of monkeys intently.

"Not to you." Wu Zhongyuan said.

Wu Zhongyuan approached slowly, but the monkeys still ignored him and were still combing their hair and catching lice.

"What on earth is going on?" Wang Xinran reached out and touched the stone wall to confirm whether what he saw was an illusion, but the feeling was very real.

Wu Zhongyuan stood at the entrance of the cave and looked around, "I won't say it yet, just observe it yourself. There is no danger here, don't worry."

Wang Xinran walked to Wu Zhongyuan and observed the situation outside. The cave where the two were located was located at a high point in the north of this space. Below was a lush forest, with cranes flying, apes singing, and birds singing and flowers fragrant. There is a green bamboo forest on the mountainside. An exquisite wooden building is hidden in the bamboo forest. The mountain is filled with dense smoke, which is as real as an illusion and like a fairyland.

While Wang Xinran was looking around, Wu Zhongyuan moved down the mountain, and Wang Xinran followed behind, observing the earth, rocks, grass and trees in the mountain at close range.

"This is obviously true, but the basic conditions for forming a complete ecological chain are not met here." Wang Xinran became more and more confused.

Wu Zhongyuan smiled and said nothing.

Wang Xinran asked again, "Did you conjure it?"

"Yes." Wu Zhongyuan nodded, "There is no living thing here. Everything is condensed by spiritual energy. Things condensed by spiritual energy are inanimate. Those monkeys and these birds seem to be alive, but in fact they are just Repeating a few simple actions mechanically."

"Where is this place?" Wang Xinran asked.

Wu Zhongyuan said, "What you guessed before must be correct. This is probably a tomb, and the relatives of Gui Zisu should be buried here. He transformed these inanimate things in order to accompany his deceased relatives."

"He is the ghost king, why doesn't he resurrect his relatives?" Wang Xinran asked.

Wu Zhongyuan shook his head and said, "I don't know. Our cognition is greatly influenced by modern times. We subconsciously think that the ghost king is the king of hell. In fact, this is not the case. At this time, the three realms have not been established. There is no underworld. The ghost king may not have the ability to bring back the dead. .”

Wang Xinran followed Wu Zhongyuan towards the mountainside, "What kind of person is the Ghost King?"

"I only know that his name is Zisu, and he has the cultivation level of Shangyuan," Wu Zhongyuan said. "He is a figure from five thousand years ago. I have no chance to contact him. In fact, he is not only the Ghost King, I also know a lot about other kings." I don’t know much about them, including their temperament and behavior, as well as what they have done in the past, which is very detrimental to me.”

The cave where the two appeared was not far from the bamboo forest. As they spoke, they came outside the bamboo forest. There was a winding path in the bamboo forest. They followed the path to the wooden building.

This is a two-story wooden building. It is not very luxurious, but it is very elegant. The door is ajar. The tomb robbers from Leprong Ridge visited this place many years ago. The ajar door must be their fault. .

After stopping briefly in front of the door, Wu Zhongyuan stepped into the wooden building.

Unlike modern times, there was a lot of furniture in the room. There were not many ancient furniture furnishings. The first floor seemed very empty, with only a few daily necessities including candlesticks and wooden basins.

There was a table in the middle of the room, a table to be exact. It was shorter than a modern table and had no drawers. There was a large box placed on the table.

The box is yellow and has no traces of rust. It is undoubtedly the result of condensed spiritual energy.

Wu Zhongyuan walked to the desk and looked closely at the box, only to find a column of words on the desk on the right side of the box.

Wang Xinran also found words on several cases, but could not identify them, so he looked at Wu Zhongyuan and asked, "What do these words carved on the table mean?"

"If you enter the residence of the deceased by mistake, you will be exempted from guilt. If you take it back, you will leave all your descendants." Wu Zhongyuan recited the original text.

"The box should contain the same items that the tomb robber took away before," Wang Xinran said. "This person doesn't seem to be very bad, and he also knows how to give warnings."

Wu Zhongyuan did not comment, reached out and opened the box and found that it was empty.

There was no obstacle to the stairs leading to the second floor. Wang Xinran looked at Wu Zhongyuan with questioning eyes.

Wu Zhongyuan knew that Wang Xinran wanted to ask him if he could go upstairs, so he pondered briefly and then walked towards the stairs.

"Is it appropriate?" Wang Xinran hesitated.

"There's nothing inappropriate. There are several iron boxes on top. I can't sense what's inside. Let's go up and have a look." Wu Zhongyuan said.

Seeing that Wang Xinran did not follow, Wu Zhongyuan stopped and turned around, "The ghost tribe once supported the four insects incarnate to rebel against the palace, and also sent out ghost soldiers and armored zombies to compete with us for the ghost-repelling agarwood. They have already lost their face."

"There is something indescribably weird here. Is there a trap?" Wang Xinran said.

"Probably not." Wu Zhongyuan shook his head.

"Don't you find that there are a lot of doubts here?" Wang Xinran said, "Since everything here is condensed by the ghost king with spiritual energy, and it is the place where he buries his relatives, why is there no spiritual energy barrier left for protection? Also, Suzaku is old. The body was weak, and many ghost clan remnants took the opportunity to escape from Nanguan, why didn't anyone come here?"

"That makes sense. Let's go up and have a look. The answer may be there..."
