The old demon of Montenegro wants to practice Taoism

The three of them stepped up the steps, and Shan Yangze said: "If there are no accidents, the steps should be thirty steps." As soon as the words fell, he remembered a saying about yin and yang in Feng Shui, odd numbers are yang, even numbers are yin, Thirty steps have been repaired here, and thirty soldiers once disappeared here. There are still many huge monsters inside, and I always feel that something will happen.

Shan Yangze held up the Huozhezi in his hand. Although there were only thirty steps, each step was extremely high, and it took a little effort to get down. Looking around, the bottom was so dark that he couldn't see the edge clearly. The eyes that can see things in the dark can't see clearly what's inside.Shan Yangze couldn't help but glanced at Guo Qian worriedly, but saw Guo Qian smile at him, took advantage of Jia Wu's unnoticed effort, leaned into his ear and pretended to talk, and kissed him lightly, Shan Yangze's blood surged immediately , All worries were thrown to the sky.

The steps are not very wide. When three people walk side by side, there are only small gaps on the left and right sides. You can touch the wall as soon as you reach out. yellow sand.

The surrounding area was quiet, only the sound of the footsteps of the three people, and the three of them took a step to count and counted to 27, but it was still dark below, and the little light from Huo Zhezi couldn't get through at all.

Shan Yangze couldn't help being a little worried, but Jia Wu suddenly spoke, his voice was cold, and he said, "Have you ever heard of a legend?" He stepped down another step, and said, "You can't count the number of steps down the stairs." Yes, otherwise you will become the missing step!" As soon as the words fell, Jia Wu laughed out loud, and limp down on the No.20 eighth step, closed his eyes, crossed his hands on the He said on his chest, "I'll stay here, the next two steps belong to you two!" After saying that, he tilted his head and died immediately.

Shan Yangze was so startled that he couldn't speak. When he got down from above, he didn't notice anything, and he didn't even know how Jia Wu got his way.He went to look at Guo Qian in horror, only to find that Guo Qian was stuck on the ninth step of No.20, half of his body had disappeared, and his face was sad, "My lord, I can no longer accompany you."

Shanyangze yelled, and the black mountain essence on his chest emitted bursts of white light. He didn't care if it attracted thunder, even if he lost his mind from now on, he didn't care. At this moment, he just wanted to rescue Guo Qian and make him completely Live well and completely!

"Guo Qian!" Shan Yangze grabbed his hand and suddenly felt something was wrong.

The surrounding scene suddenly changed, and Jia Wu, who had disappeared, came back again. He stood on the next step below, looking at them with a strange expression.Guo Qian was held by his hand, unable to move away, worried: "What's wrong with you? Just now, Jia Wu was wrong, as if he couldn't stand up suddenly and rolled down. I just stretched out my hand to pull him, and you..."

Before Guo Qian finished speaking, Shan Yangze pulled his hand hard, and said with lingering fear: "I was scared to death." But when Shan Yangze calmed down, he felt that something was wrong. What is the source of this hallucination?The medicine powder in the air was impossible, he wasn't breathing at all, and even the heaving of his chest was all fake, of course it looked like that, Yan Chixia never saw any flaws.

That is vision. He looked carefully at the left and right walls, and there was nothing there, not even patterns or traces left by the original construction. They were flat and smooth. Shan Yangze looked up again, and the top was Same, same texture walls, nothing.

But why is Guo Qian okay?Or is it because he has become a ghost and sees things from a different angle than a living thing?

At this time, Jia Wu coughed twice, and said: "It's not suitable to stay here for a long time, we'd better go down quickly. Although the governor's martial arts are much higher than mine, he won't be fatal if he is tied up by spider silk, but those monsters are tied up. He, he will never invite him back to dinner."

When Jia Wu said this, Shan Yangze came back to his senses, took out a talisman from his bosom and lit it, but found nothing abnormal, but he didn't know what abnormality he would encounter if he went on so rashly, he frowned and said: "Here... What did you see just now?"

Jia Wu's expression was still a bit unnatural, and he said, "Monsters, all of them are monsters." After he finished speaking, he touched his chest, stomped his feet a little annoyed, and said, "Let's go to rescue the governor quickly. The governor was tied up earlier. Let me come to you when the time comes, and say that if I find you, I will be saved."

Shan Yangze took a look at Guo Qian, and found that he didn't seem to notice anything unusual, and now he only had to take one step at a time, and the three of them continued to walk down with their fire folders in hand.

Soon we reached the No.15 step. At this time, Jia Wu was a little tired.He rubbed his thighs and said: "Let me rest first, or I will fall." Shan Yangze looked at his trembling thighs and stopped.

When I stopped like this, I couldn't help looking around, but I still couldn't see the bottom in front, and I couldn't see the small door behind.Shan Yangze frowned, his intuition was wrong, they didn't turn a corner when they came in, how could they not see the entrance, besides the sun was shining brightly outside, the entrance should be a white light.

He glanced at Guo Qian, and the two secretly became alert.

Jia Wu's thighs trembled violently, and he sat on the steps with his back leaning against the upper step. When he raised his head, he heard him scream: "The monster is up there!"

Shan Yangze raised his head suddenly, and saw that the upper wall, which was still empty when he came in, was covered with spider-like monsters just now, and there were no less than seven or eight of them, and he didn't hear a single thing!

The monster has pulled out white silk threads from its lower abdomen, and the four threads are hanging down, and the front and back roads are actually blocked by them!

Just now, after a fierce battle, Jia Wu only has the dagger that Shanyangze gave him, which is only six or seven inches long. Shanyangze once stabbed the monster's shell, and the blade is already a little blunt.In Shanyangze's hand, there is a long sword made of thousand-year-old locust tree, but although this sword is strong, it is specially used to deal with ghosts. As for the monsters on top of their heads, I don't know whether to care about them use.

It's just that I can't take care of too much in front of me, Shan Yangze drew out his long sword and said: "Go down."

The monster on the top of the head has already realized that he has been discovered, and it is almost activated at the same time as Shanyangze. When Shanyangze stabs out with a sword, countless spider threads shoot out. Shanyangze is very powerful, although the Huaimu sword can only There is a small groove left on the monster's shell, but once the spider silk is wrapped around Shanyangze, he can tear it off immediately, and Guo Qian is a ghost, the spider silk can't bind him at all, but Jia Wu, he Immediately he was tied up again.

"What's on you! Why can't you tie it--" Jia Wu looked at Guo Qian and yelled, but he didn't finish the second half of the sentence, and he was so wrapped up again that he didn't have time to talk.

Seeing that an intruder had been caught, the monster pulled Jia Wu and wanted to send him down first. Seeing this, Shan Yangze immediately jumped high and pulled Jia Wu's exposed half of his arm to keep him behind.

Shan Yangze became ruthless, and kicked three monsters down in a row. The monsters had thin and long legs, and the three could not stand up for a long time. left again.

As soon as they walked away, Shan Yangze vaguely saw the entrance outside, which seemed to be covered with a layer of cloth, and all the light could not penetrate.Pulling Jia Wu out again, Shan Yangze thought for a moment and said, "Either you wait outside first, and I'll go down with him. It's safe outside at least during the day."

Jia Wu also seemed to be aware of his repeated suspicions, he hesitated for a moment and said: "I'll go to the campsite last night to see if I can find some food or water. We have to go out to the desert after we find the governor. , it would be great if we can recover one or two camels."

Shan Yangze nodded and said: "Be careful yourself. It should be safe not to go to the inner city."

After finishing speaking, Jia Wu climbed up step by step, and when he reached the entrance, he cut the spider's thread with a dagger and climbed out.

Only Shanyangze and Guo Qian were left on the steps, they looked at each other, Shanyangze resisted the doubts in his heart, and said: "Let's go down."

Since they climbed the steps, they have searched twice, the first time is hallucinations, the second time is monsters, but one thing is worth noting, both of these are used to deal with living things, only ghosts, as ghosts, Guo Before, but now it is still good, the hallucinations cannot affect him, and the spider silk cannot bind him, as if... this road is specially reserved for him to walk.

Shan Yangze shook his head, and began to despise himself again.Which ghost can cross the desert?Such a strong sun, if Guo hadn't been cultivating in the essence of Montenegro for the past two days, he would not have survived.

But... what if he possessed another traveler?

Shan Yangze thought wildly all the way until he walked down the steps.

The next fifteen steps were walked very safely, and nothing happened.The two went down the steps, and there was a long and thin corridor in front of them. Shan Yangze looked at the distance to the left and right, and felt that those monsters could not pinch them in such a place, so he quickened his pace.

Walking in a long, narrow and dark place, one cannot help feeling a little dark space phobia, and this fear makes one start to think wildly again.

For example, who built this place, why the entrance to the underground palace that was originally in the center of the palace is now in the temple, what unusual things are there on those steps, or...why are the two sides of the corridor empty, not even murals? .

Needless to say, this underground palace must have been a product of the Han Dynasty, and it even had a vague relationship with Dongfang Shuo.During the Zhenguan period, the underground palace was discovered by Yuan Tiangang for the first time, and later Tang Dynasty soldiers who broke the city came in, but it was a bit strange, since Wu Zetian got the news of the elixir of life, he would definitely send more people to search for it, but something happened in the middle Knowing that the elixir of life could not be found, he sealed the thing in the bronze coffin and buried it with him.

It is very likely that after Yuan Tiangang stole the elixir of life, the king of Gaochang found out that something was wrong, so he set up an ambush. Only one soldier of the Tang Dynasty escaped. Ra all died in this underground palace.Wu Zetian knew that ordinary elixirs were hopeless, so she sealed up all relevant clues.

As for the change of the entrance of the underground palace, imagine that the center of the palace is an underground palace where as many people enter and die, no matter how big the heart is, it is impossible to sleep peacefully, so the location of the palace was changed, and a temple was built on the entrance of the underground palace. Dharma and strong popularity suppress innocent souls who died in vain.

And this monster, it is very likely that King Gaochang himself raised it to guard the underground palace. As for why they escaped now, it may be that after Gaochang destroyed the country, no one took care of them. They had to come out to find food by themselves, or it may be When the country was destroyed, the entrance was destroyed by the invading soldiers, so they were able to see the light of day again, hunting travelers through the old capital of Gaochang.

With this reasoning, many doubts in Shan Yangze's heart disappeared, but there were more and more doubts about Guo Qian who was walking next door to him.

Because of his guess above, there is no place for Guo Qian at all. What is Guo Qian's identity?Yuan Tiangang's apprentice, he doesn't even belong to the Nine Clans, his disciples are considered to be the Tenth Clan, just like his apprentices, but all the questions and clues have gathered on him, and Shan Yangze is more and more puzzled.

Sensing that Shan Yangze was looking at him, Guo Qian asked.

Shan Yangze shook his head and said, "It's okay, I was wondering why there are no murals on both sides of this corridor."

Guo Qian was silent for a moment, and said solemnly: "It is possible that the things inside are different from what is recorded in the history books. It is possible that the identities of the people inside cannot be discovered, or there is a shocking secret buried in it. People want to leave clues, but they can't be easily detected by people."

Shan Yangze originally wanted to change the topic, but he just asked casually, he didn't say anything after hearing Guo Qian's answer, and said: "It is said that this corridor will take a quarter of an hour to walk, and I must be arriving at the main hall soon." Shan Yangze said After thinking of something, he frowned and said, "It's just that the soldier who escaped said that he stayed here for seven days after he dug up the murals. Let's be careful, and don't encounter any ghosts who hit the wall without knowing it. "The last sentence is purely to regulate anger.

Guo Qian glanced at him, Shan Yangze said with a smile: "I still expect you to save me then."

After such an interruption, the haze in Shan Yangze's heart dissipated a lot, seeing the corridor that was almost at the end, he couldn't help speeding up his pace, almost rushing into the hall.

Then he froze.

The hall is densely packed with cocoons hanging from top to bottom, some of which are old, the people inside have become bones, and the color is also yellow and black, and there are monsters lying on some cocoons, sticking out long mouthparts , injected venom into it, and saw the people inside struggling, but was quickly turned into a yellow and red viscous liquid, sucked into the stomach by the monster, leaving only a skeleton in the cocoon.

Where is the Lord? !
