Chapter 267: Chapter 266: Mural Painting(1/2)
The moonlight in Lou Jinchen's eyes disappeared.
But before the moon set in the sky, it was just a thought of his. At this time, shining on the other side of the mountain, there was a beating corpse.
This corpse had no skin on its body and its muscles and bones were exposed. It had a short knife from somewhere in its hand. The short knife was glowing red, like a knife that had just been taken out of the stove.
The blade of the sword is dark, and the first half of the sword is still red.
It jumped between the rocks. Although its running posture was very awkward, it had a strange lightness and agility.
It felt that the younger man's eyes were still on it, so his body hid in the shadows, and his body immediately became covered with a layer of shadow and disappeared between heaven and earth.
He stood there motionless, but the feeling of being stared at was still there, and he was extremely vigilant.
If he didn't take Lou Jinchen seriously at first, but with one careless move, he was directly killed to death, and some kind of fear that he himself didn't know arose in his heart.
His original joy of being reborn from the sarcophagus and his complacency were immediately extinguished by Lou Jinchen.
"Are all the younger generations so arrogant now?" it thought in its mind.
However, at this time, Lou Jinchen waved his sword in the void, and the sword was like writing, leaving a door of sword light in the void, and the door frame was shining with light.
"Walk!"
Lou Jinchen said hello and stepped inside first. Chen Jin behind him saw that after he stepped in, the void in the door surged like waves. The waves seemed both tangible and invisible, and he also
Stepping into it one step at a time, I felt the void in front of me continue to melt away.
But it feels more like passing through a door, except that there are different lights inside and outside the door.
When he saw it clearly, he had already appeared in a cave. Looking back, he saw a faint moonlight outside the cave.
That moonlight was Lou Jinchen's moon.
He felt a little sigh in his heart about Lou Jinchen's methods. Lou Jinchen was obviously a man who specialized in swordsmanship, but his other spells were becoming more and more mysterious.
He was not immersed in this sigh, because he saw that the wall in front of him clearly showed signs of someone coming out.
At first glance, the wall painting did not seem to have changed much, but in their eyes, they could clearly see that there was a place where someone seemed to have come in and out.
The traces there seem to be wrinkled.
"The other party imitated your calligraphy method inside." Lou Jinchen said.
"It should be." Chen Jin said, "It came out from here."
As he spoke, he also drew another door there.
After taking a look at Lou Jinchen, he walked in.
He felt an obstacle, but it was not strong. Lou Jinchen also followed in, and then saw the sarcophagus. The lid of the sarcophagus had been pushed aside.
The two of them looked around, and saw that this place was just a small space with a vast white mist, exuding an indescribable strangeness, and the white mist was gathering towards the sarcophagus.
Chen Jin walked towards the sarcophagus, but Lou Jinchen did not. Instead, he walked into the white mist. He wanted to see how big the mural was, so he kept going deeper.
After walking about thirty steps, a wall appeared in front of him. There were murals on the wall, but he couldn't see them clearly.
He flicked his fingers, and a little light shone, and he could clearly see the murals on the stone wall.
He found the source.
On the mural, there is a picture of a human group. Among them, there is a priest-like person who is worshiping the stars and obtaining magic spells from them.
But over time, the person's eyes will become redder and redder, and then he will start to go crazy. However, before he completely goes crazy, the priest will ask his tribe to tie him up and throw him into a deep well.
The well is in a cave.
After this priest was thrown into the well, a new priest would take over and continue to worship the stars.
This priest carved various stone statues in the village. These stone statues seemed to have some kind of magical power, which could prevent the village from being shrouded in fog, and the strange monsters outside the village did not dare to enter the village.
There were strange monsters wandering around the murals, but they didn't dare to enter the village at all.
Until one day, a priest fled the village on his own after seeing red eyes. It seemed that the new priest had not been trained, and he was unable to stop the strange things outside the village.
As a result, the village was destroyed by monsters, and the mural ended here.
There seemed to be some patterns on the back, which looked like a starry sky, looked like bloodstains, and seemed to have been deliberately smeared.
Lou Jinchen thought it was over, but he saw a new mural.
The reason why it is said to be a new mural is because the painting style has changed drastically and has become more elegant and beautiful.
The previous murals were rough and somewhat weird.
Now this mural looks like it was painted by an art master with a professional background.
I saw on the mural that a white-haired monk wearing a high crown came to the cave.
He first looked at the well, then built a coffin and a painting above the well, and then he tied himself up and stayed in the well.
He kept himself from falling into the well water, and hung himself head and feet in the air.
Lou Jinchen couldn't help but think of the two mountain chiefs in the small courtyard that he saw in the underworld in Taixue. They were also hung there.
Originally, Lou Jinchen thought that the mural ended here, but then he saw that the mural still existed.
However, what is painted on this mural is a hanging man. He opened his eyes from the well, climbed up along the rope, pushed the sarcophagus away, and then left.
The people who left seemed like living people, not like wet corpses at all.
"Is this departing person the Gaoquan Sect? Is this a prophecy? Or, was this last mural painted by the person who came out of it?"
However, Lou Jinchen could tell that the color of the mural was obviously different, and the last section was obviously much newer.
At this moment, he felt a strong and strange aura.
…
When Chen Jin came to the sarcophagus, he saw darkness inside the sarcophagus, and a coldness hit his face.
He reached out and took out a talisman from the treasure bag. When he shook it in his hand, the talisman burst into golden light. When he blew it, the golden light seemed to be deformed by the wind. It was pulled in the wind, and it turned out to be a golden talisman.
It turned into a bird and flew out of his hand.
The golden talisman light in his hand dispersed, and the golden bird fell towards the sarcophagus.
The talisman bird kept flying down, and in the darkness, Chen Jin saw that it looked like a well below.
The shape is exactly the same as the sarcophagus above, except that the wall of the well below is covered with strange runes, which glow in the light of the runes.
For example, even Chen Jin couldn't understand the ancient characters, so he could only guess at some of them.
I only reluctantly knew that some of the runes represented the words "prison", "prisoner", and "forbidden".
The talisman bird kept flying downward, and Chen Jin felt the coldness and evil through the talisman fire bird.
The light on the talisman bird is getting dimmer and dimmer.
Chen Jin did not flinch. Although there was a sense of fear in his heart, there seemed to be an idea urging him to see clearly what was below.
Then he finally saw clearly. He saw the dark water at the bottom of the well, and through the firelight of the Talisman Fire Bird, he saw densely packed human heads floating in the water at the bottom of the well.
The heads of those people seemed to be awakened by the talisman fire bird. They all raised their heads and looked upward. Chen Jin saw blood-red eyes, and then his fire talisman was extinguished instantly.
But his eyes were still looking at the pair of scarlet eyes. Before he knew it, Chen Jin was lying on the sarcophagus and looking inside.
It wasn't Chen Jin who was looking at them, it was them who were looking at Chen Jin. It even seemed that they had hooked Chen Jin's ghost through their eyes, trying to hook Chen Jin into the sarcophagus.
At this moment, a ball of fire lit up, and a fireball fell down Chen Jin's head.
The fireball, like a small sun, fell into the well and exploded into a bright light.
Chen Jin's feeling of being hooked disappeared instantly and she immediately backed away.
Lou Jinchen didn't know when he had appeared beside him, and he saw his sword lifting the coffin lid.
"Click!" The sarcophagus was covered again.
"This place is wrong. Gaoquan Sect just borrowed this place." Lou Jinchen said.
After the coffin lid was closed, Lou Jinchen said: "Let's go."
He had a feeling of panic.
Chen Jin didn't say anything and turned around to leave. His heart was still flustered and so many pairs of eyes still appeared in his mind.
A pair of strange red eyes in the darkness, but if turned over, they look like a dark starry sky above your head, and the stars in the starry sky are all red.
The more he thought like this, the more dangerous and fearful he felt. He felt that he had seen a group of taboo existences.
The two of them walked out of the painting wall, and then they saw a pair of red eyes looking inside at the door of the cave.
When Lou Jinchen saw it, it immediately shrank outside.
Lou Jinchen's sword has been thrown.
The wet corpse hid its figure in the dim moonlight outside, and jumped quickly in the shadow, agile and strange, but there was a silver light streaking across the sky.
Flying down, the corpse ghost felt the terror. When he turned around, the silver light had already fallen.
"ah!"
The silver light pierced a shadow, and a ghoul emerged from the shadow. A sword was pierced through its chest and nailed to a stone, deep enough to reach the hilt.
