Onmyoji's Secret

Chapter 140 Dragon Shadow
I squinted my eyes and looked at the palace that appeared in front of me. This should be a building built directly at the bottom of the cave. The edge of the artificially excavated hall is slightly smooth, and the ground is covered with gold bricks, shining brightly under the firelight. A piece of it is a bit dazzling.

"I have long heard that Zhang Xianzhong plundered the wealth of the entire Sichuan, and the gold, silver and precious stones are piled up like mountains. I didn't expect that the hall in a dragon's lair is made of gold for the floor. Tsk tsk, what a typical nouveau riche." I marveled as I walked out Shimen, go to the main hall.

In the main hall built with gold and jade, there are countless huge bronze fire pillars. There are blue flames crackling and burning in the fire pillars. The whole space illuminated by the faint green fire is a bit gloomy. I saw my shadow projected on the wall under the light of the fire. , appearing huge and hideous.

Perhaps because of the long time underground, the air in the whole hall was a bit cloudy. Frowning, I walked to a bronze fire pillar, stretched my head to look under the flames, and wanted to see what kind of fuel was inside, and it could actually support it. This flame burns for 300 years.

After looking at it, I gasped. Through the distorted blue flame, I saw a huge snake-like creature coiled in the bronze fire pillar. Because of the burning flame, I couldn't see the specific shape clearly. , I can only secretly guess that it should be a boa constrictor. Its body is curled up and its head is raised high. This blue flame spews out from the snake's mouth. I can vaguely hear a big snake from the flame. Painful hissing.

I swallowed a mouthful of saliva, took two steps back and carefully looked at the weird lines on the bronze fire pillar. After looking at it for a while, I barely guessed that these runes should be a kind of evil magic circle. The soul is trapped in this pillar of fire, and then the soul and body are ignited by evil methods to ignite the blue will-o'-the-wisp, so it can continue to burn for hundreds of years in the absence of oxygen.

I was secretly on guard in my heart, and continued to move forward into the depths of the hall, while being wary of the surroundings. Whether it was the monster in the tunnel just now or the big snake in the bronze fire pillar, this so-called dragon's lair may not be as simple as I imagined, so we must act cautiously just work.

The more I walked in, the more depressing and gloomy it seemed, and there was a dead silence all around. I endured the tension in my heart and strode into the depths. Now I don't know where I am. I have to figure out the situation as soon as possible, otherwise As time went by, I couldn't last long without food and water.

After walking for about a minute or two, I finally reached the end of the hall, where a huge palace gate blocked my eyes, blocking the way forward.I licked my dry lips, and didn't care too much. I went forward and reached out to push the palace gate. The scarlet gate made harsh friction sounds under my force, and the gate was sealed. The gate of more than 2 years has finally been forcibly opened under my power.

I took a deep breath, clenched my hands into two fists, and walked in boldly.

Inside this palace gate, I saw a scene that shocked me to the extreme, even when I faced the evil dragon soul or even the long right soul, I had never been so shocked before.

Inside this scarlet gate is a space with a radius of about a hundred feet, and it is directly in front of this space.Eight huge iron chains protruded from the cave wall. These iron chains were as thick as thighs, and they shone with bright black metallic luster. They looked indestructible and difficult to break.One end of the eight iron chains was melted on the wall and integrated with the entire mountain, while the other end stretched into the air, and the eight iron chains were pulled straight, firmly locking a figure in midair .

"Moo!"

A looming howling sound kept echoing in my mind. The moment I heard the sound, I felt so weak all over my body. Facing the figure trapped in mid-air by the eight chains, I almost knelt down.I feel that every inch of flesh and blood on my body is glowing with blue brilliance. It is the essence of life left by the dragon beads, which once endowed me with powerful dragon power and terrifying recovery power, but now, these dragon essences want to To urge me to surrender and bow down to the figure in front of me.I gritted my teeth and tried my best to fight against this feeling. Beads of sweat dripped down on my forehead. I barely raised my head and carefully looked at the figure locked in mid-air.

dragon!
No, to be precise, it should be a dragon-shaped figure. His whole body is composed of golden yellow gas. The antlers, dragon head, snake body, fish tail, and the four sharp claws under his body are simply similar to Chinese mythology. The real dragon in the book looks exactly the same, not a flood dragon like Nielonghun or Qingjiao, but a real dragon. The pair of golden antlers on the dragon's head made my heart tremble.

I panted heavily, and finally sat down on the ground and looked at this dragon-shaped figure carefully. He looked like a real dragon, but he was not a real entity, but his whole body was covered with golden dragon aura. Composed of continuously surging golden air waves, the viewer's heart is fascinated.It's just that eight thick chains are wrapped around this dragon shadow, and they are tightly locked from the beginning to the end. Even if the dragon shadow struggles in every possible way, it still has no effect, and can only let out a wail in midair .

Dragon veins!

I thought to myself, this should be the dragon vein trapped by Zhang Xianzhong.Those with dragon veins are composed of the luck of heaven, earth, mountains, rivers and rivers. Since ancient times, there has been a saying that those who get dragon veins win the world. Especially for a country, if it does not have a dragon vein of its own to support it, it is like a rootless weed. , seems to be stable, but it will be unstable in case of wind and rain.Among the dozens of dynasties in Chinese history, each dynasty has its own dragon veins. The dragon veins of the Zhou Dynasty are in Qishan, the dragon veins of the Qin Dynasty are in Xianyang, and the dragon veins of the Han Dynasty are in Peixian...

As the saying goes, the mountain is the power of the dragon, and the water is the blood of the dragon. This Qingcheng Mountain is a famous spiritual mountain in the world and a blessed place of Taoism. In addition, the Minjiang River is surrounded by water. The embrace of mountains and rivers is hard to find in the world It is a matter of course to find a dragon vein in this mountain in a treasure land of geomantic omen.The only thing that surprised me was that I carefully observed and looked at this locked dragon vein. His body was filled with dragon energy, and its color was golden and clear. It didn't look like a fierce dragon!It stands to reason that with the blessing of this dragon vein, it is impossible for the Daxi Kingdom, which is loyal to Zhang, to be wiped out within two years, but if there is no problem with the dragon vein, then...

I saw wisps of golden dragon aura emanating towards the ground from the constantly struggling dragon shadow in the sky.I looked down in the direction of the dragon's breath, my heart trembled, and my eyebrows twitched in shock.

There is a magic circle engraved on the ground. The lines on the magic circle are complicated and mysterious. I am a little dazzled at first glance, and I can't understand it.But my attention was not on the magic circle at the moment, because I saw a huge coffin lying quietly under the dragon shadow in the middle of the magic circle.

coffin!Another coffin!
My brows fluttered, the coffin in front of me was made of golden nanmu, and it was inlaid with all kinds of pearls, jade and gemstones, it was a scene of luxury, so it can be seen that the wealth that Zhang Xianzhong controlled back then was simply terrifying.Golden nanmu, as recorded in ancient books, is as hard as iron and stone, invulnerable to insects, and can survive thousands of years without decay if buried in the soil. It is the best coffin material in the world. Most of the coffins of ancient emperors It is made of golden nanmu, which represents an extraordinary meaning.

I watched as the coffin in front of me continuously absorbed the dragon energy escaping from the dragon shadow. Every time it absorbed more traces, the dragon shadow in the midair would appear a little more emptiness, but the speed was very slow. If you didn't observe carefully Basically it's hard to see.

The bones of Zhang Xianzhong's ancestors should be buried in this coffin!

I stood up from the ground and watched the coffin continuously sucking the dragon's breath. I was a little terrified, and I couldn't help but became more cautious, and even retreated.What I promised the Lord General of the Yin Bing at the beginning was to check the situation of the dragon's lair, and then go out and tell him that now that I have seen the dragon's veins, I have completed the task, and there is no need to continue exploring.And I have to go back to find Mu Yueting. This dragon's lair is very strange, and there are inexplicable monsters. I am very worried about her.

I glanced at the coffin and the locked dragon shadow in the sky again, then turned and left.

But the moment I turned around, I clearly heard the sound of thud, thud, thud, from the coffin behind me. The sound was a bit dull and heavy, but to my ears it sounded like earth-shattering shock.

I swallowed nervously, and looked back at the coffin tremblingly...
