Zhou Li walked over and looked along the rope toward the wall. He found that the chain seemed to be quite deep into the stone wall. Zhou Li touched the chain curiously and found that it was warm and soft, not like metal. This is strange. Such a huge creature is still tied up with such a flashy chain. Aren't you afraid that it will break free? Zhou Li tugged hard and found that he couldn't pull it out from the wall at all. It must have been inserted very deep.
While Zhou was thinking about something, he suddenly felt that the faint golden light all over the body of the dragon had changed and seemed to be more dazzling. He turned around and glanced at the dragon's head hastily. This glance was insignificant and almost frightened him to the ground.
The head of the dragon skeleton turned to look at him at some point, and two golden flames appeared in the two originally empty eye sockets. Zhou Li didn't dare to stay. He quickly walked away from the dragon skeleton using his hands and feet, and then ran towards the entrance of the cave.
This dragon skeleton actually turned out to be a fake! Where is the logic in this?
But just as he was running halfway, he suddenly jumped to the side, and then rolled on the spot. And at the moment he fell. A raging fire actually broke out from the entrance of the cave, blocking the way in. Zhou Li almost fainted out of breath. Why is this dragon's IQ so high just after he wakes up? Could it be that he still wants to play cat and mouse? But the escape route has been blocked, and there is no way for him to retreat. What to do!
After the dragon spit out the fire, it stopped, leaving only the golden light around it that was getting stronger and stronger. Finally, at a certain moment, Zhou Li could no longer look directly at the dragon's body. The entire bottom of the cave was covered with thousands of golden lights! Zhou Li involuntarily covered his eyes.
After waiting for a while, Zhou Li still hadn't adapted to the light in the cave before. The blindness under the strong light almost made Zhou Li a little dizzy. Fortunately, he knew that he must not relax now, so he tried to open his eyes and think Go and see what's going on over there. When his eyes finally saw the other side clearly, he finally collapsed on the ground in fear.
There is no dragon skeleton on the opposite side, but there is a real dragon on the opposite side! Deer antlers, camel head, crocodile mouth, turtle eyes, cow ears, fish scales, shrimp whiskers, snake belly, eagle feet. Exactly the same as in the legend. Sure enough, he had entered the dragon's lair. Could the secret of this mountain be that the dragon was coming back to life? And now that he has caught up with him, will he become an appetizer for his new life? This series of thoughts flashed through Zhou Li's head one by one.
The dragon opposite seemed to shake its head as if it had just woken up, and then slowly opened its eyes. It looked at itself carefully, and then showed a very strange expression, as if it was very confused about itself. Why do you wake up? When he turned around and saw the chain under his neck, he suddenly became irritable. He broke away frantically, and used his claws to pull hard on the chain, which seemed not too thick for him. He sprayed a purple-gold flame from his mouth, trying to burn the chain, but it seemed that the chain was completely He was not afraid of flames and had nothing to do in the fire. When the dragon saw this, he roared angrily towards the sky and suddenly straightened the chain, trying to break it, but no matter how straight it was, the chain would not break. no change. The golden light flashed on the surface of the chain, and the dragon collapsed as if all its strength had been sucked away.
But at this moment, Zhou Li's eyes suddenly flashed, because just when the dragon stretched the chain, Zhou Li clearly saw a small gap in the stone door next to him. It seems that Zhou Li has really found the mechanism of this Shimen!
At this time, someone suddenly ran in hurriedly, holding a secret letter in his hand and handed it to Tianjisou. Tianjisou took it over, looked at it, and then put it in his arms. Before he finished talking about Xuanyuan Cave, Du Jie was suffocating when he heard Tianjisou suddenly stopped. This made Du Jie feel so itchy that he almost wanted to pull off his master's beard. After Tianjisou finished his work, he finally couldn't bear Du Jie's begging and continued to talk about what happened in Xuanyuan Cave.
Tianjisou said: "After I entered the inner cave, I found that this place was actually a huge and surprisingly large palace. I..."
"Wait a minute, master, where is the dragon in front of the stone gate? How is it?" Du Jie asked with an excited face.
"The good ones are still there!"
"Then how did you get in?"
"I opened the trap and walked in by myself."
"The mechanism that was opened? Isn't the mechanism on the dragon's chain? Master, you cut corners when telling a story."
"You don't care how I got in! Anyway, I got in. Oh, dragons are very vindictive. We'd better not talk about dragons behind their backs."
"Can……"
"You kid, do you still want to hear it?"
"I'll listen, I'll listen, Master." Du Jie looked at Tianjisou and glared, knowing that his master would definitely not say anything about how he got in. Could there be any other stories happening during this time? Du Jie couldn't help but think of his master, who usually looked like the supreme martial arts master, lying in front of the dragon and crying, saying that his eighty-year-old mother and three-year-old child were still waiting for him to take care of him. My beloved wife is still waiting for me to come home to comfort her. A widow has a lot to do, and Grandpa Long, you can't just watch a beautiful young woman become a widow.
Thinking of this, Du Jie chuckled loudly. Tianjisou looked at him with a puzzled look. He took the jade bamboo pole next to him and knocked Du Jie on the head: "Why are you laughing?"
"No...nothing to laugh about." Du Jie hurriedly covered his mouth and looked at Tianjisou with an innocent expression.
Tianjisou didn't pay much attention and continued to talk about his experience in Xuanyuan Cave.
…………
Zhou Li finally arrived at the stone gate. It turned out to be a huge hall. The hall was as big as if the entire mountain had been hollowed out. There were huge statues in each of the four directions inside, which were the legendary four-way mythical beasts. : Qinglong, White Tiger, Suzaku, Xuanwu. These four mythical beasts are also huge and abnormal, and the carvings are lifelike, as if they are alive. These four divine beasts were lying on their stomachs with their heads facing inward. Zhou Li looked further in and saw a huge altar in the center of the hall. The altar was also very strangely built. It was divided into nine sections from bottom to top. Zhou Li looked around the altar carefully and was shocked. This platform is built according to the method of Nine Palaces, Bagua, Seven Stars, Six Integration, Five Elements, Four Symbols, Three Talents, Two Instruments and One Yuan. From bottom to top, the momentum is majestic. At this time, Zhou Li had just graduated from Guangfa Tianzun Feng Wuhen School. I am very clear about Taoist things. If you guessed correctly, each floor of this platform is nine feet and nine inches high, which means that the sky is broken and the earth is missing. For such a high altar, Zhou Li almost had to use Qinggong Lifting Technique to get on the stage. I really don’t know what this platform was built for.
Zhou Li walked down the stage and saw that there were many things carved on the wall of the stage. There were all kinds of flowers, birds, fish, insects, and beasts. Zhou Li didn't think much and jumped up to the first level of the altar. This floor should be the Nine Palace Platform. The entire platform is divided into nine palaces. The first palace is Kan (north), the second palace is Kun (southwest), the third palace is Zhen (east), the fourth palace is Xun (southeast), and the fifth palace is Zhong (Zhiyu Kun). ), the sixth palace is Qian (northwest), the seventh palace is Dui (west), the eighth palace is Gen (northeast), and the ninth palace is Li (south). There is a dark cage in the middle compartment. Because it is in the lowest nine-square grid, and the cage is also in the center, the light is really bad. Zhou Li couldn't see whether there was anything in this cage.
He took a closer look and saw that the cage had been opened from the inside. He didn't know where the things imprisoned inside had gone. Zhou Li stepped forward and touched the fracture of the cage, and found that the fracture of the cage was very old. It seemed that the cage had been broken for a long time. This discovery made Zhou Li feel a little relieved. He now had no way out. , someone who is not easy to mess with comes out at this time, and he really doesn't know what to do, but Zhou Li was soon attracted by the break of the cage. The fracture was very irregular, and it looked like it had been knocked open with great force. There were dots of luster inside the fracture. Zhou Li looked closely at it for a long time and confirmed that it was actually an iron rod with emery added. This kind of thing can actually be broken? Fortunately, Zhou Li had even seen a dragon now and didn't think anything was impossible.
The entire altar is empty except for this cage, and you can see it at a glance. Zhou Li did not stop. Then he jumped up to the second floor. The altar on this floor was a huge Bagua diagram. Zhou Li glanced at it, and sure enough, there was a dark cage in the middle of the second floor. Zhou Li walked forward and found that the cage had also been opened. And there is nothing else on the entire second floor except the cage.
Isn't it possible that Zhou Xiang is holding something here? Zhou Li still didn't stop and jumped up one level at a time.
Sure enough, all the altars had different shapes, and there was a dark cage in the center. The things in the cage had long gone. Wait until we finally reach the top of the altar. Finally there is a difference.
The top floor is about thirty feet above the ground. There are only a few cages for such a high altar. This is really not a major discovery for Zhou Li. Wait until you get to the top. The light suddenly became brighter. In addition to being closer to the shining stones on the surrounding walls, Zhou Li also discovered that the top of the cave was also studded with dense spots of light. These stones seemed to grow out of the mountain wall. Zhou Li originally wanted to take one out for research on the way, but he couldn't pry it off after a long time. The density of light spots on the roof of this cave is almost twice that of other places, but the light is either bright or dark. The brightest one is not as bright as the one on the wall, and it doesn't seem to be used to shine. Zhou Li was fascinated by what he saw, and always felt that there must be something special about the arrangement of things in this place.
"Is this arranged according to the three hundred and sixty constellations in the sky?" Zhou Li seemed to suddenly remember, his eyes widened. He found the location of the stone statues of the four mythical beasts from top to bottom, with Qinglong in the east and Qinglong in the west. Look at these light spots from the direction of White Tiger, South Vermillion Bird, and North Xuanwu.
