Chengtian Ba ​​Suo

I jumped up and down in fright, stepped on the body of the red-spotted python and went to the old Taoist priest. 【 】The head of the red-spotted python moved again, as if it wanted to turn around.I guess it definitely doesn't want to swallow me now, it wants to use its tail as a whip to beat me to death.

However, the old Taoist punctured its abdomen, and a huge blood hole almost broke its body.I turned it over and saw that it had been cut with countless scars on its back, blood and flesh were flying, and scales were scattered around, it looked quite miserable.

The old Taoist didn't care about it, and took me to the edge of the pool, and said: "Use the jade pendant to see what's below?"

I was still in shock, and it was only when I was slapped on the back of the head by the old Taoist priest that I became conscious.After taking out the Jade Pendant, the old Taoist stuck it on my forehead.The field of vision extends along the pool, which is another novel feeling.

The water in the pool fluctuated around, it was dark at first, but it became clearer as it went down, as if the sun was shining in the water.

The field of vision quickly extended to the bottom of the pool. Regardless of the short time, it can be roughly estimated that the water in the pool is at least 20 meters deep.The bottom is not very smooth, and the traces of being run over by the huge python body can be clearly seen.

On the east side of the pool, a passage appeared.At this time, I dived into the water with my vision, and I was not afraid of encountering any monsters, so I simply burrowed in along the passage.

The channel is not short, it is longer than the water depth, about 30 meters.Not long after, I saw shore.It was a huge space, and on one side of the land, a coffin was tilted.The lid of the coffin has been opened, and I took a look, only a little bit of golden scum inside.

Looking elsewhere, there is no second way out.The old Taoist also saw the situation, so he took the Tongming jade pendant off my forehead.Then ask me: Will you hold your breath?

I thought about it and asked: Does being able to swim count as being able to hold your breath?

Calculate.The old Taoist nodded, then kicked me down.

I subconsciously wanted to speak, but was poured with water.The water is chilly and bitter, and it's like eating ice cubes at minus [-] degrees.

At this time, another person fell on it, and it turned out that the old Taoist also came down.

I only said that I can swim, but I didn't say that I can dive.I was about to jump up immediately, but the old Taoist grabbed my collar and dragged me down like a dead dog.

This metaphor is too inappropriate, but I really feel this way.

Fortunately, with the old Taoist priest accompanying me, there is nothing to be afraid of. With him pulling, I just close my eyes, shut my mouth and shut my breath.

After a while, my lungs were about to explode, but I felt my whole body relax, but I was out of the water.

Pulling on the shore, I gasped for breath and reprimanded the old Taoist loudly: You, you old, old...almost, ha, ha...almost didn't suffocate me.

If you leave you there alone, I'm afraid they will come back again.The old Taoist explained.

I oh, so that's what happened, this old man is quite careful.

What did you say I am old?The old Taoist suddenly asked.

ah?Old... uh... my head was instantly covered, and then, I felt that my fingers on the shore were stepped on by someone, and it hurt so badly.

You old man... Gulululu...

Climbing ashore again, the old Taoist priest had already stood in front of the coffin and studied it.

Knowing that this old guy is small-minded, I can't beat him, so I just pretend it never happened.

This underground space is very large, even bigger than it can be seen with a jade pendant.Roughly estimated, there are at least a few hundred square meters, and there is a constant buzzing sound when talking and walking.

I don't know whether it was formed naturally or excavated by the ancients. If it is man-made, it may be another earth-shattering masterpiece.Even with modern technology, it is not easy to dig out a huge space tens of meters high in the mountains.What's more, the entrance to come in is only the passage under the pool, and the excavator cannot drive in.

I looked around and felt that there was nothing to see, so I walked over to the old Taoist priest.Seeing him staring in a daze, I asked: What did you find?

The old Taoist bent down silently, took out a little golden slag from the coffin, twisted it with his hands, and looked closer for a while.He didn't speak, so I can only look for clues by myself. The most convenient way is to look at the whole coffin.

Regardless of the coffin lid or the coffin body, the most attractive place is the faintly charming fragrance.This kind of aroma is inaudible, the harder you use it, the less you can smell it. When you don't pay attention, it will become clearer, like an illusion that directly stimulates the brain.

I heard that the superb methods of modern medicine can directly stimulate people's brain nerves. Even if you don't eat, you can still feel the aroma of eating.It's amazing, but not very useful.

The coffin was unremarkable, without special decorations and patterns, and it was difficult to tell what era it was without passing an appraisal.But what surprised me was that even in such a humid place, the coffin was still extremely dry.There was a faint warmth to the touch, but it disappeared in the next second.

Only these two items can confirm that this coffin is very unusual, perhaps it is for some important person.It is said that some ancient dignitaries like to find strange places and use special coffins, hoping to be resurrected in the future or live a better life in the underworld.

This place is strange enough, it is located in the mountain and entered from the bottom of the pool.And in the pool, I don't know whether it was grown by itself or was raised by others. A huge red-spotted python, just looking at the python's body, must be at least several hundred meters long.

Therefore, this coffin existed at least two or three hundred years ago.

See something?I asked again.

The old Taoist took out a few talisman papers from his bosom, twisted up the golden dregs in the coffin one by one, wrapped them up, and carefully put them into his bosom.

I watched from the sidelines with great curiosity. I followed the old Taoist one because I was afraid of death, and the second was because I wanted to make life more exciting.But the old Taoist just looked and didn't speak, he was like a dumb man, didn't he obviously worry about me?

After checking the entire underground space for abnormalities, the old Taoist raised his hand to lift the coffin lid and put it back on.The movements are light and careful, as if doing something extraordinary.

Afterwards, the old Taoist ignited a paper talisman with one hand, and waved it to the top of the mountain wall.The fire flashed away, but the old Taoist seemed to have seen something, and nodded indiscernibly.

I saw this as anxious, wishing I could pull the old Taoist's head off and put it on my neck, so that I could know what he was thinking.

Maybe he sensed that I was extremely curious, anxious, and impatient, so the old Taoist said calmly: This coffin was originally hanging from above, but someone dropped it.Judging from the traces, it should be the work of those people.

They came all the way from the walking corpse, and they didn't hesitate to lure me into the game to get the things here. The secret is naturally in the coffin.However, everything was taken away by them, and what I got was just a little remnant.

Did you have any special feelings just now?The old Taoist suddenly asked.

I thought about it, and said: I smelled a little fragrance, and felt that the coffin was a little warm, which seemed to be there, and I didn't know if it was an illusion.

The old Taoist nodded, and said in an appreciative tone: The spiritual blood of the Basuo lineage is indeed extraordinary. Even if you have no power, you can still detect abnormalities.

Then, he changed the subject and said: The things in this coffin should be the remains of a person.

remains?skeleton?I'm a little surprised, these people waste so much energy just to get the skeleton after death?Is this the walking corpse vein or the tomb robbers?Even tomb robbers don't like to take skeletons, pervert.

The old Taoist naturally didn't understand the weird thoughts in my heart, and continued to explain: Even I was surprised, this skeleton has existed for a long time, but even on tiny broken bones, the pure power of Tao can still be felt.It is as mighty as the sky, and its righteousness is high, so you will feel warm.In fact, it was not a coffin, but the power left on the broken bones.

What do you mean?I'm at a loss.

The old Taoist explained: People who practice Taoism can cast spells and kill demons.However, after death, ashes return to ashes, ashes return to ashes, and everything cultivated in one's life will be reduced to nothing.This is what the group of monks said, a hundred years old is just a stinky skin.But this skeleton, even the broken bones have residual strength, which is shocking.

Perhaps, this is the great magician in ancient times.I think their purpose is to study this weird phenomenon, or to gain other benefits from it.

what good?I asked.

The old Taoist said: I don't understand either, but if not, what is it for?

We couldn't understand this question, so the old Taoist wrapped up the remaining broken bones and planned to study it carefully after returning.

After confirming again that I did not forget to check the place, the old Taoist took me out of here, from the pool, and returned to the ground.

After I came out, I took a few deep breaths. The feeling in the water was too bad, and I felt like I was about to suffocate.Perhaps, it was because the pool was too deep.

Looking up, he saw the half body of the walking corpse, and the huge red-spotted python lying in the mountain stream, bloody and bloody.All this shows that a big war just happened.It just occurred to me when I saw this that we are still in danger.

Following the old Taoist priest, we ignored the walking corpses halfway, and the red-spotted python lay there motionless, as if he was dead.

The old Taoist looked at it, and suddenly seemed to remember something, and asked me: Do you want a protective treasure?

Protective treasure?I thought about it, and then I wanted to slap myself. Is it worth thinking about it? Of course I want to.

The old Taoist nodded, asked me for the jade pendant, and was about to cast a spell, but suddenly stopped.

What's wrong?I asked.

The old Taoist looked at the red-spotted python and said: It is not dead yet.

Uh, you have to die to make it?

Um.The old Taoist nodded: To extract the souls of living things is to change one's life against the heavens, and to be punished by the gods to shorten one's lifespan.

Or should I poke him to death?I asked.
