People are in the comprehensive tomb, unloading the mountain and stealing the chief

Chapter 240 Sheng Ji Appears!

"This... might really be a ghost place!" Chen Ziyan hesitated for a moment, then said.

When he spoke, his eyes never left the eight-armed guards.

For these weird guards, Chen Ziyan had some guesses in his heart, but he couldn't be sure.

"Master Chen, these are also alive, right?" Hu Bayi no longer cared about thinking about the temple, and focused all his attention on the eight-armed guards who looked like sculptures.

Compared with this identical temple, such a weird eight-armed guard made him feel more dangerous.

Chen Ziyan said softly: "It should be."

Although the eight-armed guard seemed motionless, the looming sense of threat let him know that these were not dead objects.

"Then... shall we continue to move forward?" Hu Bayi asked.

He felt that they were in a dilemma now. If they retreated, the dark-faced people around them would not agree, but if they went forward and woke up these eight-armed guards, the result would not be much better.

Chen Ziyan answered decisively this time: "Let's go!"

He knew they had no other choice now.

He even guessed that if he just retreated like this, it would not only be because the black-faced gnats surrounding him refused to agree, but he was afraid that the eight-armed guards would immediately recover and stop them.

Now that these things are not attacking, it is likely the result of a certain existence secretly manipulating them, and the other party's intention is obvious, just wanting them to continue to explore.

Thinking of this, Chen Ziyan took the lead and stepped up the steps of the temple.

Rather than worrying in vain here, it is better to go forward.

Although Chen Ziyan acted cautiously on weekdays, he did not lack the courage to face danger in the slightest.

Chen Ziyan had set an example, and the others would naturally not lose the chain. They all got rid of distracting thoughts in their minds and followed suit.

As Chen Ziyan expected, when they advanced, the eight-armed guards did not move at all.

With vigilance in mind, they walked through the steps guarded by the eight-armed guards, and the scene inside the temple also caught their eyes.

Although this temple looks the same as the one I encountered before, from the outside, there is a big difference inside.

In the temple we encountered earlier, the core inside is a giant bronze tripod, and there are only murals on the top.

But the interior of the temple that appeared in front of them at this time, the most eye-catching thing is the bronze throne in the depths.

The bronze throne is a normal specification. It stands to reason that it would look relatively inconspicuous if placed in a temple with such an enlarged scale.

But the fact is just the opposite. This quaint bronze throne seems to have some kind of unique attraction, making people involuntarily focus on it.

If it weren't for Chen Ziyan and the others who were strong-willed, they would probably have nothing else in their eyes at this time.

Chen Ziyan stared at the bronze throne for a long while before forcibly turning his eyes away.

After he withdrew his attention, the first thing he looked at was the top of the temple.

Because of the previous temple, he suspected that there were also murals carved here.

But to his disappointment, unlike the previous temple, there was nothing on the top of this temple, not to mention imaginary murals, not even a little extra line.

And just when Chen Ziyan was about to observe other places, he suddenly felt that the scene in front of him became hazy, and at the same time, the space seemed to be stretched, becoming extremely vast.

He turned his head subconsciously, and found that the other people standing beside him had disappeared, and he was the only one left standing here.

This sudden change made Chen Ziyan raise his vigilance to the highest level in an instant.

While clenching the sidearm in his right hand, three short arrows appeared in his left hand, which he caught between his fingers, ready to shoot at any time.

But even after making such preparations, Chen Ziyan was still feeling uneasy.

After all, he had never experienced such a situation before.

He couldn't tell whether this was some kind of illusion, or whether he really entered a special space without knowing it.

It's fine if it's an illusion, but if it's all real, things are not going well.

Just when Chen Ziyan was full of doubts, he vaguely heard a voice.

Although the specific content of the voice cannot be heard clearly, it can be heard that it is a woman's voice.

This discovery made Chen Ziyan hold his breath and listen carefully, wanting to hear clearly what the sound was about.

"Come...see...me..."

After listening quietly for a while, Chen Ziyan finally heard clearly that the voice kept repeating these three words.

He looked around again and found that he could not determine the source of the sound, so he decided to go straight forward.

If he guessed correctly, the owner of this voice was the mastermind behind manipulating the black gnats with human faces to force them into the temple.

And the purpose of the other party's doing this is probably to let Chen Ziyan enter this weird space to meet him.

So after he couldn't think of a good countermeasure, Chen Ziyan simply didn't think about it so much, and simply came up with a trick.

Didn't the other party want to meet by yourself, then go there by yourself, and just take this opportunity to figure out what's going on.

After all, I am always guessing here, and it is impossible to get the answer.

With such thoughts in mind, Chen Ziyan walked steadily in this strange space.

In the process of walking, he found that this place did not seem to be a product of real existence, because only an area beside him was more real, and other places showed a distorted state.

This is also the reason why he felt hazy here at the very beginning.

Chen Ziyan didn't know how long he had been walking, and finally something different appeared in his sight.

When he took a closer look, he found that this was another temple, exactly the same as the two temples he had encountered before.

But speaking of it, the temple that appeared in front of him at this time was more like the second temple he encountered, because both had strange eight-armed guards on the outside.

But the difference is that the eight-armed guard he just saw is dead or alive, but now he can be sure that he is alive with just one glance.

Because the eyes of the eight-armed guards were open, as Chen Ziyan approached, they all looked at him silently.

When meeting such gazes, Chen Ziyan's footsteps subconsciously froze, but he quickly returned to normal.

Now he has also figured it out, as long as the existence hiding behind the scenes does not order, everything here is not a threat to him, so there is no need to worry too much.

Of course, the reason for thinking this way is more because he knows that even if he is worried, it is useless.

If the other party really wants to harm him, then he has no way to stop it.

Resisting not to look at these eight-armed guards, Chen Ziyan walked into the temple again!

The layout of the temple was also the same as before, with a bronze throne, but Chen Ziyan didn't even look at the bronze throne. After entering, his attention was already on the masked woman on the throne.

In fact, it is not too accurate to say that the other party is human, because this woman has the same eight arms as the guards outside.

But to say that she is not human is actually not quite right, because apart from having more arms and a larger body proportion, this woman is no different from a human being.

This eight-armed woman was wearing what looked like a veil, only her eyes were exposed, and she was wearing a simple and elegant robe with weird human face patterns printed on it.

After seeing this robe, the first thing Chen Ziyan thought of was the statue on the altar.

If these eight arms were replaced with spider legs, the woman would be exactly the same as the overall image of the statue.

"You came."

The eight-armed woman looked at Chen Ziyan and said.

"I'm here, I don't know how to address it?" Chen Ziyan was not surprised that she could speak.

After all, I have heard it before, but it was a little vague at that time.

"You can call me... Sheng Ji!" The eight-armed woman hesitated for a moment, and said a name that Chen Ziyan had thought about but couldn't believe.

Sheng Ji!

The moment Chen Ziyan heard the name, he was really surprised.

If the odd-looking woman on the throne in front of her is really the Sheng Ji from the Western Zhou Dynasty, wouldn't she have survived for nearly 3000 years!
If you think about it further, even Sheng Ji can live to this day, then the instigator of all this, King Zhou Mu's longevity plan really failed?
"Wait, your..." At this moment, Chen Ziyan suddenly realized something was wrong.

If the person in front of her is really Sheng Ji, why is her way of speaking so advanced.

It wouldn't be in the Western Zhou Dynasty, that's how it is said now.

Maybe she guessed what Chen Ziyan was thinking, so before he could express his doubts, Sheng Ji took the initiative to give the answer: "The progress of the times is inevitable, and learning is a matter of course. I will also study contemporary knowledge."

Chen Ziyan really felt that his knowledge had increased, but he did not expect that this ancient man 3000 years ago would know how to keep pace with the times.

"Then I don't know Sheng Ji... Your Majesty, do you have anything to tell me about bringing me here?" Chen Ziyan thought about his choice of words, and finally decided to use the title of Madam.

Firstly, he was not sure whether Sheng Ji was a queen or concubine during the Western Zhou Dynasty. Second, this title was a relatively common title. I think this lady who likes to learn should be able to understand what she wants to express.

Upon hearing this, Sheng Ji nodded lightly: "I need your help with something, and of course, I will give you a corresponding reward."

Hearing this answer, Chen Ziyan instantly felt a little unreasonable.

It's not that he has any strange hobbies, but that Sheng Ji's attitude is really unreasonable.

It stands to reason that a female noblewoman with a high status at that time, and a long-lived person who has lived for thousands of years, would actually use such...a kind attitude to talk to herself, and even offered to give her a reward, which is somewhat inappropriate. It fits the personality.

Shouldn't he be giving orders directly to himself in an imperative tone?
Just as Chen Ziyan was thinking about this, he heard Sheng Ji on the throne speak again.

"It seems that you have some doubts, so you might as well speak up."

The implication is very clear, that is, let Chen Ziyan express his confusion, and she will give some answers.

"Ma'am, I think your mentality is very good." Chen Ziyan thought for a while, and expressed the doubts that had just arisen in a way of praise.

He believed that Sheng Ji would understand what he wanted to express.

Sure enough, Sheng Ji immediately understood what Chen Ziyan meant, and said softly: "As an awakened person of the ancient descendant, you are qualified to have an equal dialogue with me."

Her words instantly made Chen Ziyan understand.

It turned out that everything was caused by his own blood.

But this also made him have new doubts. He knew that his bloodline was very powerful, but it seemed that Sheng Ji shouldn't be allowed to give face like this.

Maybe seeing Chen Ziyan's doubts, Sheng Ji said: "The old glory has been lost, I can't tell you too much, the only thing I can tell you is that your bloodline is far from as simple as you imagined."

She said this quite a bit, but she didn't mean it thoroughly.

However, Chen Ziyan didn't ask any further questions. He was a real boss. He was willing to tell him that he was saving face, but now that he had already said that, if you continued to ask, it would be ignorance.

Chen Ziyan temporarily put the question aside, and then asked, "I don't know what your mother wants me to do?"

He felt that it would be better to ask the other party's purpose first, regardless of what Sheng Ji said, but this transaction was unfair from the beginning, because Chen Ziyan had no right to refuse.

To be more precise, he did not have the confidence to reject the other party.

The ghost knows what terrible consequences will be caused by rashly rejecting a 3000-year-old woman.

We all know that women are creatures, but the older they get, the more terrifying they become!

Especially since this is a woman who seems to be ageless and may have extraordinary power, it will be even more terrifying, okay?
Facing Chen Ziyan's question, Sheng Ji's eyes flashed with reminiscence, and then she slowly uttered six words: "Help me find the king!"

Hearing this request, Chen Ziyan's pupils shrank suddenly.

He had suspected that King Mu of Zhou had lived to this day, but in the final analysis, it was just a suspicion and there was no substantive evidence.

But now that Sheng Ji's words came out, it proved from the side that his guess was right, that King Zhou Mu had indeed lived to this day.

This made Chen Ziyan silently sigh once again, the water in this world is really deep enough.

First, at the Longling Miku, a Sheng Ji who lived from the Western Zhou Dynasty to the present suddenly appeared, and then it also led to the news that King Mu of Zhou was not dead at all.

If the Queen Mother of the West who also lives in a small house is added, then there are already three immortals that Chen Ziyan knows.

What's even more amazing is that there are still some connections between these three immortals.

Thinking of this, Chen Ziyan suddenly thought of Wang Kaixuan's strange attraction, and asked, "By the way, there is one more question I want to ask my mother..."

"What you want to ask is that little fat man." But before he could finish speaking, Sheng Ji helped him say the rest.

Chen Ziyan was silent for a while, then nodded: "That's right, I want to know why he attracts black gnats."

"because this."

Sheng Ji stretched out her hand, and then a mist rose from her palm, and finally something familiar to Chen Ziyan appeared.

That is the jade pendant passed down by Wang Kaixuan's family!
