With a bang, the huge stone door closed completely.
All the ghosts were frozen in place.
A long time passed.
A rumbling sound sounded:
"what to do?"
The voice came from the ghost general holding a spear.
Another ghost general holding a spear had a slightly hoarse voice, like the sound of rough gravel being polished:
"The general said, help if you can."
"If we can't help, we can still repay the favor."
The ghost general held the gun and danced like a spear, and said helplessly: "That Taoist priest is no small matter, half of my body is still numb now."
"The tree demon can only wish for happiness."
He waved his gun and shouted:
"Return to the team!"
In an instant, all the evil ghost figures that lined up neatly in front of the two ghost generals roared back.
Fall into their respective bronze figurines.
The entire school grounds returned to silence.
…
The other side of the giant door.
Xu Qingfeng and others were on a huge stone staircase, which was a huge underground palace stone room.
Looking up, it is too high to be noticed.
It was as if the entire mountain had been hollowed out and turned into the tomb chamber of the tomb owner.
Looking down from the top, looking at the bottom of the stone steps, there is a square made of white marble, pure white.
In the center is a silver-white lake, calm and waveless, as white as a mirror.
The squirrel poked his head out, picked up his clothes and said loudly:
"Look, there seems to be a coffin there."
Of course Xu Qingfeng saw it.
It was a bronze coffin with an extremely complicated shape, floating on the silver-white lake.
There was no ups and downs at all, as if it were on flat ground.
What made Xu Qingfeng concerned was that there was a giant bronze beast standing tall on each side of the lake.
To the east, a giant dragon hovers, and to the west, a tiger descends from the mountain.
To the south, giant birds fluttered their wings, and to the north, turtles and snakes danced together.
Everyone recognized him instantly.
The four giant bronze beasts are the green dragon, the white tiger, the red bird, and the basalt, the four-phase mythical beasts.
I wonder if it was Xu Qingfeng’s illusion.
He faintly heard a low, thunderous beast roar. The beast roars had different sounds, but they all conveyed a kind of weakness and despair.
Xu Qingfeng raised his eyebrows and his eyes fell on the four huge bronze beasts in the square. Could it be...
There are also remnant souls of mythical beasts on this?
At this time.
Xiaorou's voice came, a little trembling:
"Taoist Priest, I don't see grandma here either. Where did she hide?"
Xu Qingfeng looked around.
His eyesight was astonishing. Although the stone chamber at the heart of the mountain was very large and open, there were not many places to hide.
Except for the huge bronze coffin in the center, there are only four bronze beasts left to make a fuss about.
He did not rush to verify, but instead came to a circle of white marble stone walls surrounding the stone room.
The little fox and the squirrel hung side by side on the chest and said curiously:
"Little Taoist priest, are you interested in this mural?"
Xu Qingfeng said:
"The murals carved on the stone wall should describe the life of the tomb owner."
He started from the right side of the stone steps and walked slowly along the stone wall, with the three female ghosts following behind him.
"Look, there is a young man engraved on it. He walked through the mountains, crossed the Yangtze River, and came to the prosperous city."
Xu Qingfeng pointed to the carvings on the stone wall and continued:
"The young man joined the army, went to the battlefield, and killed many enemies. You see, he has many enemies around his waist."
The squirrel exclaimed and urged:
"and after?"
Xu Qingfeng smoothed the hair on the squirrel's head and continued:
"Later on, the young man was awarded the title of marquis and general by virtue of his great military exploits. You see, from here to there, it was all his battles."
"The boy turned into a young man. He killed countless enemies. When faced with surrendered soldiers, he killed them all without mercy. He can be called a killer like a god."
Xu Qingfeng's tone became louder:
"It's interesting here."
"The young man became a general, led an army of millions, conquered various countries, and then helped the emperor establish a prosperous dynasty."
The little fox guessed:
"Could it be that he was suspected by the emperor and sentenced to death?"
Facing Xu Qingfeng's confused eyes.
The little fox said matter-of-factly: "Look at what I'm doing. That's how human words are written."
Xu Qingfeng smiled and said:
"Then you really guessed wrong."
"This man got along well with the emperor, and they created a prosperous age together. Look there, there are two people worshiping in front of thousands of people."
"and after?"
When Xu Qingfeng saw the back, he also showed a surprised expression:
"Hey, a disaster comes from the sky. It seems like the sky opens into countless big holes, and the fire from the sky comes down and burns the world."
"Everything covered by the sky fire was destroyed, and even the dynasty that was at its peak in the Spring and Autumn Period was destroyed by natural disasters."
"The dynasty is weak, all the evil monsters are looking at you, ghosts caused by natural disasters are rampant, and the surviving humans are also brutally slaughtered by monsters and ghosts, not even one out of ten..."
Unknowingly, the mural on the stone wall was coming to an end, Xu Qingfeng said: "But this man survived the natural disaster."
"One man leads human soldiers around to hunt monsters, but this is just a drop in the bucket. His army is getting smaller and smaller."
Xu Qingfeng paused:
"He seemed to have given up, and then he turned to building the ancient tomb of the underground palace here. He hunted four powerful monsters one after another and sealed their remaining souls into the bronze statues of the four divine beasts."
"Then he lay down in the giant bronze coffin and was placed here, but it's impossible to tell whether he was dead or not."
Xu Qingfeng's tone was slightly surprised;
"And all his troops were willing to kill themselves, sealing their souls into bronze statues to guard the ancient tombs."
He thought about it for a moment.
He said with some emotion:
"The life of this tomb owner is really magnificent."
The squirrel and the little fox all nodded in unison, their eyes full of yearning.
This kind of heroic epic story has a fatal attraction for little monsters like them.
Xiaokui and Xiaoyue didn't feel too cold, but were more curious about why there was a natural disaster like fire from heaven.
Could it be that the dynasty did something that offended God and thus attracted divine punishment?
Xu Qingfeng's focus is also on this. There must be something fishy in this, and this kind of natural disaster is enough to destroy the dynasty.
Even though Xu Qingfeng had the inheritance of the Heavenly Master, he suddenly felt a sense of powerlessness and urgency.
The little fox suddenly said:
"I seem to have heard stories about natural disasters in Qingqiu."
"Thousands of years ago, in the south of Nanshan, fire from heaven came to the world, burned the mountains and boiled the sea, and the dynasty was destroyed."
"I thought it was a legend before, but it turned out to be the personal experience of the owner of this tomb."
Xu Qingfeng muttered:
"A person from a thousand years ago."
Xu Qingfeng turned his attention back to the bronze coffin in the center of the silver lake and said loudly:
"Then, if I open the bronze coffin, will I see the tomb owner or the tree demon occupying the magpie's nest?"
He stood far away on the stone steps.
Point it out.
A ray of golden light turned into a rope and flew towards the bronze coffin.
The golden rope is wrapped around.
Tie one corner of the bronze pavilion lid tightly, and then pull it sharply, causing the coffin lid, which weighs more than 10,000 kilograms, to roll directly up.
Almost instantly.
The hoarse voice of the dryad grandmother came from the coffin: "Niubi, I didn't expect that even the ancient tomb's mechanisms couldn't stop you."
"If you insist on killing them all, then I will fight you to the death!"
A strong demonic aura mixed with a fierce peerless evil aura overflowed from the bronze coffin.
moment.
Countless root vines burst out from the ground, piercing the jade-like square, overwhelmingly attacking Xu Qingfeng and others.
