Because the stone door was too heavy, the entire mountain peak shook when it was opened to the left and right. The birds and beasts living in the mountain were frightened and flew away in fear.
As the stone door slowly opened, the first thing that caught everyone's eyes was the greenery. This sudden greenery was not the green light emitted by some rare treasure, but the real green. Because the surrounding water vapor is very heavy and the stone gate has been closed all year round, the entire palace has been covered with moss. Not only is there moss on the ground, but also the walls and dome are covered with moss. Even the stone chairs and utensils left in the palace have been covered with moss. Covered by thick moss.
The interior of the main hall should be nine feet square. There is a stone platform one foot square in the north direction. The stone platform is about three feet high. There is a large stone carved chair left on it. There are rows of backrests on the east and west sides of the central area of the hall. There are fifteen chairs in total, seven on the left and eight on the right.
Before the stone door was fully opened, Changsheng noticed a rectangular stone table placed in the hall. This stone table was located on the south side of the chairs, not far from the door. It was placed horizontally and looked quite impressive in the empty hall. unexpected.
While noticing the stone table, Chang Sheng also saw the long sword placed on the stone table. There was moss attached to the entire stone table, but the strange thing was that there was no moss on the long sword, and that The long sword with a black sheath and black handle is also the only different color in the entire hall.
Not only Changsheng saw the black long sword, but Datou and others also saw it clearly. Seeing that there was really a black long sword in the hall that had been sealed for thousands of years, everyone was overjoyed. Datou cheered happily, "Haha, it's not in vain, really here."
Before Changsheng could answer, the giant red-haired tiger that had been peeping from a short distance suddenly rushed closer and ran into the palace before everyone else.
Because the hall was covered with moss, the giant red-haired tiger was moving too fast, slipping on its feet, staggering, and almost falling. However, it quickly stabilized its body, looked around, and walked slowly towards the stone chair due north.
After the stone door stopped moving, Changsheng stepped into the moss-covered ancient palace. He didn't go anywhere else, but walked straight to the stone table not far from the door.
In ancient times, this style of stone table was equivalent to the current table. There have been clear rules for the placement of tables since ancient times, that is, things cannot be placed horizontally, because placing things horizontally is used to worship the ghosts and gods of heaven and earth, and living people. Dining tables for daily use can only be placed vertically in the north and south.
The stone table in the hall is placed horizontally. The black long sword is placed on the stone table with the hilt facing north and the sword blade facing south.
Datou and others followed Changsheng into the main hall, and did not wander around. Instead, they followed Changsheng to the stone.
Changsheng lowered his head and looked at the black sword on the stone table. The scabbard of the black sword was made of unknown material. It looked like wood but not wood, and it looked like copper but not copper. The aura was restrained and at the same time the evil aura was exposed. Although it had not been taken out of the scabbard, it had a formidable aura. The chilling atmosphere has already made everyone's scalp numb and their breathing difficult.
"Your Majesty, there is moss growing on the bottom of the black sword," Yu Yi said in a low voice, "It doesn't look like this black sword was originally placed here."
Without waiting for Chang Sheng to answer, Yu Yi pointed to the center of the table, "Look at this raised piece of moss, does it look like a knife?"
After I finished speaking, Datou answered casually, "Yes, there seems to be a handful under the moss."
Before that, Changsheng's attention had been entirely on the strange black long sword. After hearing the two men talking, he noticed that the moss on the middle and higher sides of the stone table resembled a single sword.
The stone gate's self-opening has left everyone confused. Now, a black sword of unknown origin appears in the palace that has been closed for thousands of years. How could such a strange thing happen?
After a brief thought, Chang Sheng stabilized his mind and reached out to push away the moss on the stone table. Sure enough, there was a long sword with a copper sheath under the moss. Although it had been covered by moss for many years, the scabbard and the handle were not affected by moisture or decay, and remained the same. It is the dark red color of bronze.
Changsheng picked up the long sword and looked at it carefully. Although this bronze long sword also had murderous pressure, it was not as ferocious and manic as the black long sword. The cloud patterns on the scabbard and the Tai Chi graphics on the end of the handle were also symbols of spiritual practice. Everyone’s favorite pattern.
After looking at the long knife, he looked at the stone table again. The bronze long knife was originally placed horizontally in the middle of the stone table, while the black long sword was placed vertically in the right area of the stone table.
"This long sword with a copper sheath is probably the Canopy Sword," Yang Kai said solemnly, "Judging from the placement of the table and the long sword, its owner deliberately left it here when he ascended. , intended to be dedicated to the noble people who will come here many years later.”
"I agree with Yang Kai's statement," Shi Xuanming said, "Gods and Buddhas are able to discern the secrets of heaven. Marshal Tianpeng should have expected that you would come here today, and also guessed why you came, so he brought the secrets of heaven to you. The Peng Dao is left with you."
Without waiting for Changsheng to answer, Shi Xuanming said again, "You should have been very familiar with Marshal Tianpeng in your previous life. The long sword was laid neatly across the stone table. This is the attitude and etiquette of looking up to the dedication. "
While everyone was talking, Datou kept tilting his head to look at the giant red-haired tiger. After entering the palace, the giant red-haired tiger walked straight to the stone platform in the north and lingered near the stone platform. It seemed that he was quite familiar with the situation in the palace.
Yang Kai spoke up and said, "My lord, during the break, you once talked about Marshal Tianpeng, and you seemed to have said who served Marshal Tianpeng."
"Emperor Zhongtian Ziwei." Changsheng said in a deep voice.
After Chang Sheng spoke, no one answered. Although they didn't answer, everyone had the same idea, that is, they suspected that Chang Sheng was the reincarnation of the god he said.
"My lord, do you have no memory of what happened before?" Datou asked cautiously.
Changsheng shook his head slowly.
"How big an official is this Emperor Ziwei in heaven?" Datou asked.
"There are many similarities between the regulations of the Heavenly Court and the imperial court. The gods and immortals in the Heavenly Court are also divided into civil servants and military generals," Changsheng said. "Civil servants are under the management of the Tianshu Academy of the Qing Dynasty, and the military generals are under the jurisdiction of the Arctic Exorcism Academy. Emperor Ziwei of Zhongtian is The main god of the North Pole Exorcist Academy assists the universe and is a very human minister."
"A highly respected minister? Isn't that the same as you are now?" Datou was surprised.
Chang Sheng did not answer, but slowly raised his hand and unsheathed the sword. Just as he expected, the end of the blade was indeed engraved with the words "Bian Zhuang's own knife".
Except for Datou, the other three people saw the series of inscriptions on the sword. Yang Kai vaguely recognized the ancient characters, "Bianzhuang is the name of Marshal Tianpeng?"
Changsheng nodded.
Yang Kai whispered, "Your Majesty, if you are really Emperor Ziwei, you can explain why the strong beast did not attack you. As the boss of Marshal Tianpeng, you must have been here before."
"Yang Kai is right," Big Head nodded, "The door will be opened as soon as you come, and the things you need will be prepared for you in advance. If it were me and you were in trouble, I would do the same thing."
"I also think you are right," Shi Xuanming pointed at the long black sword, "But how do you explain this sword? Who put it here?"
While everyone was talking, Yu Yi had been looking down at the long black sword on the stone table. After explaining Xuan Ming's words, she said, "There is a lot of moisture in here, but there is no water mist attached to the scabbard, no matter what. Whoever placed this sword here will not be here for long.”
"Can it be more precise?" Changsheng said.
Yu nodded, "Okay, but you need to touch it to move it."
"Don't hold it with your hands." Changsheng handed over the canopy knife in his hand.
Yu Yi reached out to take it, and used the canopy knife to slowly push the black long sword away. After careful observation, he said, "After the long sword was moved away, the moss originally pressed underneath immediately rebounded slowly. The toughness of the moss... "
Datou asked eagerly, "Just tell me how long it will take."
"The longest one is correct." Yu Yi replied.
"What's the shortest?" Datou asked again.
"The moment before the stone door opens..."
