Chapter 43
"Are you all awake? We'll leave when the medicine wears off. It's probably only half an hour. To be on the safe side, we have to wait a while." After saying this, Sun Laosan carefully took back the medicine powder bottle.
"Third brother, this thing is very powerful. You said you borrowed it from a friend on the road? What friend?" I asked curiously.
Sun Laosan shook his head, "I borrowed this thing from the Eight Great Monsters Cripple Xiang. Fortunately, I am well prepared."
Many people have heard of the word "ecstasy". In ancient TV dramas, criminals would poke a hole in the window paper and blow the smoke in with a hollow bamboo tube.
This is not groundless, but the fragrance under the underground palace has persisted for thousands of years, which is very surprising.
Before the Republic of China, those who were involved in the martial arts world were divided into eight sects, the eight sects, and the seven yin sects, which also included the eight eccentrics of Tianqiao.
What are the eight monsters on the flyover?
Gold leather and colorful hangings, judging group fragrant willows.
The laizixiang mentioned by the third brother is the second to last one among the eight monsters, and her status is higher than Liumen. This Liumen is the kiln sister, who is in the skin and flesh business.
It took half an hour to wait for the medicine to dissipate. I was a little curious about the eight monsters he mentioned, so I took the opportunity to learn more about it.
The third brother said that some of the descendants of the eight monsters are still there, and some have disappeared, just like the people who have disappeared from the tomb raiding scene, like the people who moved the mountains and made the hills.
This kind of people had nicknames in the world back then, and the stick of ecstasy lame incense was just one of them, and there were many other strange people.
Liu, the beggar with a flower sword, Zhang Xiaohong, the candy man, Su Qin, Xiao Tuantou, Lihua Dagu, Xiao Song Rong, Fengtian Luozi Wei Guotong, Jinmen storyteller Bai Yuqing, Beiping meteor Wang Shaoyuan, flying eaves and wall swallows Li, etc. These are all people with unique skills.
At that time, grave robbers who were also low-level people could not get publicity, and there were only a few people who could be called famous.
I secretly wrote down the names of these people, thinking that I would have the chance to meet these strange people in the future.
"Lao San, how big is this underground palace, and how big is Moth Mountain?" Feeling that the medicine was almost gone, a mole asked thoughtfully.
Sun Laosan shook his head helplessly, "I don't know, just take it one step at a time."
"Yunfeng, brother, the medicinal effect should have passed. Let's continue to explore. If we don't understand this Western Zhou underground palace, all our months of hard work will be in vain."
A few people collected themselves and continued walking forward.
After walking forward for about ten minutes, we discovered another very special building.
In the center of the underground palace, a dry circular pit appeared. The sides of the pit were smooth. In the pit stood three humanoid stone sculptures wearing robes. The stone sculptures had no heads, only bodies.
Looking at the neat fractures on the neck of the stone sculpture, we guess that the head was not done on purpose when it was first made. If someone had deliberately damaged it, then the fractures on the neck of the sculpture would never be so smooth.
The pit in the underground palace is a bit like a reservoir. You can tell at a glance that someone dug it out deliberately in the past.
"Hey, why are there so many holes here? What are they for?" A mole suddenly found something beside the pool.
I also saw that, as a mole said, there are many small holes arranged around the concave pool. I don’t know what they are for.
The third brother was brave and jumped first.
Walking to the middle of the pool, he frowned and looked at the three headless stone sculptures.
"What's wrong, Third Brother, what have you discovered?" Then several of us jumped into the pool.
"Brother, look, look at this place," Sun Laosan pointed to the chest of the headless stone sculpture.
I also saw it. I saw some depressions in the chest of the stone man he was pointing at. Although the depressions were not obvious, you could see them clearly even if you were close enough.
"Third brother, don't move yet!
It's still a step too late.
Almost at the same time, Sun Laosan pressed down with his right hand, and the elder brother said a few seconds late,
Seeing the stone man's chest collapse, we stood there, not daring to breathe.
