Chapter 80 Deep in the Emperor’s Tomb (1)
"Xiao Xiu'er, look, the texture, the hardness, the color, the texture of this treasure..." Huangfu'an was too excited for a moment. However, when he inadvertently raised his eyes, he glanced next to him, because he was afraid of the light.
Jiu Xiaohan, who avoided looking to the other side, became calmer and said, "I'm sorry... I forgot for a moment and you can't see clearly!"
It seems that although this Huangfu An can be moody and unstable at times, at least he is not as brutal and ruthless as the official and arrogant man who is responsible for managing the prisoners on death row.
Jiu Xiaohan narrowed his eyes slightly, turned around, and smiled respectfully at Huangfu'an: "It doesn't matter! It doesn't matter! It can be seen that the ancient holy light of this treasure is naturally not blessed to be tolerated. Xiao Liuye, I'm sorry.
Frankly speaking, you should be careful to collect such a rare item! If it is taken away by those greedy villains, the gain will outweigh the loss!"
"What do you think they are...?" Huangfu'an understood the implication of Jiu Xiaohan's words. He put the ancient jade pendant in his arms, stood up and patted the dust stains on his body, while looking at the door that was always open.
The empty tomb passage outside the iron cage showed the previous arrogance and disdain on his face again. He whitened his eyelids and snorted coldly, "They, huh... don't dare!"
These death row prisoners originally committed unforgivable crimes and were sentenced by the Lord of Ngee Ann County to an ironclad case that could not be appealed or overturned for three generations. Therefore, whoever can save their lives now, they will decide to do it for them.
Serve.
Even if some of them were determined and possessed by ghosts, they just wanted to steal Huangfu'an's money and escape from Emperor An's tomb. However, after leaving the tomb entrance, an ordinary person would not be able to survive no matter what.
You can't pass those fortress levels "guarded" by giant anacondas.
Even if it was possible to slip out of the tomb and escape from the anaconda again like Huangfu Yi who was captured in the tomb coffin. However, in the end, he still fell into the intricate black wolf cave underground.
.
Jiu Xiaohan didn't expect that as soon as the little prince stood up, he turned around and stretched out an arm towards himself on the ground:
"Get up! From now on, just stay with me and be my companion! What position can I give you? What's your name?"
"Jiu Xiaohan! Master... uh..."
Jiu Xiaohan almost announced himself as a family member, but something happened here and he suddenly had an extra thought.
In those dark tomb passages with twists and turns, Huangfu An only guided the way with a pebble-sized luminous pearl held in the palm of his hand, but he did not make a wrong step or stumble. Obviously, he did not make a mistake.
I already know the surrounding environment quite well.
When other people get this thing, they may use it as a decoration for their belts or hair bundles, or as an eye mask when sleeping at night. However, Jiu Xiaohan only uses it during the day or under strong light.
Perhaps, right now, it is the deepest part of Emperor Anaconda’s tomb!
However, in the tomb of Emperor Anaconda, which is hidden deep in the cracks in the ground, Jiu Xiaohan tried to remember everything he heard, heard, and touched as accurately as possible...
"I don't have any other hobbies. Since I was a kid, I just loved looking for ancient books, allusions, and unofficial histories that others don't read much..."
Therefore, if "Ziyu" was really dragged away by someone, he still wouldn't die! But if he was dragged away by a monster, then it would be hard to say!
Jiu Xiaohan still doesn't know how much Liang Ziyu's extra heart and heart will help those evil beasts who practice magic and magic to improve their skills.
He lowered his head and followed the little prince Huangfu'an dejectedly. What Jiu Xiaohan never thought about was that before he fainted, "Ziyu" was also lying in his arms. If he was caught,
Why is "Ziyu" not there in the death row?
However, when he thought of this, Jiu Xiaohan began to panic all over. The tip of his nose, earlobes, hands and feet were all cold. Of course, he also realized that Huangfu'an had taken him to a deeper place in the underground palace tomb.
Perhaps it was also one of the reasons why Jiu Xiaohan felt colder and colder.
The material is made of the finest silk fabric, which is thin, soft, breathable and has strong light-shielding power. Legend has it that those two pieces were specially rewarded by a certain "gold master" to the master to make new Taoist robes.
At this moment, Jiu Xiaohan, whose blood vessels were no longer tense, was thinking about how to get out of his own predicament and was trying to figure out "Ziyu"'s current situation.
At this time, Jiu Xiaohan just had some doubts. Maybe some of the caves here were connected to the previous black wolf cave. However, Jiu Xiaohan still had not yet understood the identity and background of "Ziyu" and the tomb of Emperor Anaconda.
closely connected.
"Know a thing or two!" Jiu Xiaohan said modestly.
Along the way, neither of them spoke. Except for the sound of each other's footsteps and breathing, the sound of clothes rubbing against each other as they walked, and occasionally, there would be a few gusts of wind leaking in from a crack in the rock...
However, those evil beasts who cannot control their own mouths and are seduced and driven by their own greed and evil thoughts. If they do evil and eat people, their final fate will definitely be worse than falling into that world.
The animal realm is even more miserable. They will endure all kinds of punishments for tens of millions of billions of years in the endless hell where they will never be reincarnated. That is the real truth: they can neither survive nor die!
Jiu Xiaohan always remembers that when he was in Qingxin Temple, Master Wuweizi Taoist and other "hunting guard" disciples, every time they completed the task of subduing demons and brought those evil beasts back to the temple, they would
According to the old rules, before going to the altar, you will first perform a redemption ceremony for those monsters who still have some kind thoughts.
"Miscellaneous School!"
In fact, Jiu Xiaohan always carries a black ribbon with him, which was sewn for Jiu Xiaohan by his 17th junior brother Wuyan, who is very good at needlework.
At this moment, Jiu Xiaohan discovered that he had followed Huangfu'an's guidance and was about to get out of the corridor. The moment Jiu Xiaohan stepped out, as if in an instant, he was shocked by the scene in front of him.
It seemed like he was staying.
When Jiu Xiaohan clearly felt that the entrance of the corridor in front of him was getting closer and closer, the entrance of the cave became wider and wider.
"Hahaha! Very good! Very good!" Huangfu'an laughed excitedly. This laughter echoed in the tomb passage, which sounded really scary. Then he decided, "Since you are an inspirational person, you must be self-taught.
My little Xiu'er, how about temporarily joining my Xiao Liuye's sect and becoming a diners' disciple first? How about that?!"
However, this smell is very similar to the "jade fragrance" that Jiu Xiaohan smelled from Ziyu when he first met him in the black wolf's den.
"Being able to serve the little prince closely, I am really a blessing that has been cultivated for hundreds of years!" Jiu Xiaohan quickly pretended to be grateful, his knees softened, and he knelt down to Huangfu'an, "Young man, I will definitely say everything.
Do your best!"
Although Jiu Xiaohan's eyesight is seriously flawed, his hearing is excellent. He can almost judge the height and length of a tomb passage, as well as the distance between adjacent tomb passages, through the echoes of their footsteps.
distance.
Jiu Xiaohan could tell that as the two of them walked closer to the Tomb of Emperor Anaconda, the breaths exhaled by the two of them gradually became thicker and thicker, becoming more and more "deep blue" from the colorless at the beginning -
Through his own pair of blue eyes, Jiu Xiaohan saw that the white color of the gas was often covered with a layer of blue. However, around him, the heavier the humidity, the lower the temperature, and the thicker the blue.
However, the condensation of ice and snow is different. The beautiful scenery after snow that ordinary people think of may often cause the most fatal harm to Jiu Xiaohan.
Let’s not talk about the “Little Liu Ye of Ngee Ann County” who was walking in front of him wearing coarse clothes and cloth shoes, pretending to be an amateur foreman, and walking in front of him with a majestic and majestic look.
The boot-wearing Han didn't even mention a word about the other person who broke into Emperor Anaconda's tomb. This matter was too weird!
Could it be that there are at least two forces coexisting in this underground valley tomb palace, right?
Anyway, now that he has reached this situation, Jiu Xiaohan's best strategy is not to escape from Huangfu'an as soon as possible. On the contrary, he needs to stick closely to Huangfuan. After all, Huangfuan is also the direct descendant of the city lord of Ngee'an County.
Third son. At least, to take a step back, if Jiu Xiaohan can use Huangfu'an's power and position to search for "Ziyu" in this huge tomb of Emperor Anaconda, it will definitely be better than fighting alone without a clue.
It is much more reliable to break into the underground palace randomly, and the chance of winning is greater!
However, whether it was kidnapping, suspicion or rescue, the person who took "Ziyu" away from Jiu Xiaohan's arms may, of course, not be a human being, but went for "Ziyu"...
However, the smells that Jiu Xiaohan could smell and distinguish between his breaths became more and more complex. They were no longer just the turbid smells that had been covered in dust for many years in the underground tombs. On the contrary, they were mixed.
There are many unique smells exuded by precious materials such as gold, silver, stone jade, rosewood, huanghuali, red coral... and even almost gradually cover up all the smells Jiu Xiaohan smelled when he came here just now.
.
"Do you know Feng Shui, or the art of dividing gold and fixing acupuncture points?"
However, since the little prince didn't mention "Ziyu" just now, Jiu Xiaohan couldn't say anything, and then followed Huangfu An out of the large iron cage where the death row prisoners were kept.
This is so that even if these evil beasts have been various kinds of monsters and committed deeds that are harmful to nature, but have not yet reached the point of unforgivable sin, when their souls go through the "Judgement of Yama Hall" later, they can be punished.
Label them with the words "their feelings are pitiable," "the circumstances are excusable," or "the crime is not worthy of punishment." This is also the last and final act of mercy that Master Wuweizi can do to them.
However, in "Ziyu", apart from the extra things he was born with, which should not belong to him, there is probably no other value in "Ziyu", which can help people extend their lives, rejuvenate their youth, and even bring the dead back to life.
.Living people and dying people want "Ziyu", but their purpose can be understood.
Jiu Xiaohan couldn't see that kind of solid, expanse of white. To Jiu Xiaohan's strange eyes, this kind of white was more severe than ordinary people's snow blindness.
Redness, tearing, acid burning, stinging, severe dizziness, nausea, coma, and even nerve convulsions and suffocation of blood.
Could it be that this "Little Sixth Master" and the prisoners on death row have lived here for a long time just to dig out the rare treasures in Emperor Anaconda's tomb?
I don't know how long I walked along those wide and narrow corridors. Sometimes, I had to bend down and lean into the cave. Sometimes, I could straighten my waist and raise my head and walk normally.
Along the way, Jiu Xiaohan used his fingers to touch the texture of the stone walls around him from time to time. Sometimes it was wet, sometimes dry, sometimes extremely hard, and sometimes chips fell off.
It is said that the auditory memory, olfactory memory, taste memory and tactile memory of the human race are as unforgettable as the visual memory. However, ordinary people tend to believe more and remember what they see with their own eyes more easily.
From the moment he came down from the mountain to the present, the black ribbon Wuyan gave to Jiu Xiaohan has not been put to use. This is because Jiu Xiaohan either acted late at night, or was in a wolf cave, a deep pool, or a tomb.
Stay.
However, another possibility seems a bit strange. If it is not a human being, it is probably a monster, monster, or the like. In terms of nature, these monsters, monsters and other alien creatures have no substantial and absolute difference from the human race.
Good and bad, good and evil, there are those who are "honest" and follow the rules, and naturally, there are those evil beasts who break the boundaries.
At the same time, Jiu Xiaohan was also smelling the changes in the smell in the air anytime and anywhere, mixed with water mist, musty smell, rotten gas, sulfur smell... sometimes strong and sometimes light.
"Miscellaneous studies?" Huangfu'an once again looked at Jiu Xiaohan, who was standing in front of him with his Taoist robe on his body and his temperament. "Interesting! Is it possible that you still plan to learn Taoism and become immortal without any teacher?"
But Wu Yan collected all the discarded corners of his master's Taoist robe, and gave Jiu Xiaohan a black ribbon every year, and it grew an inch longer every year. So far, Jiu Xiaohan already has ten.
.
This cave is different from all the caves Jiu Xiaohan has seen in the back mountain of Qingxin Mountain in the past twenty years.
This cave is extremely spacious. When you enter here, you feel as if you have entered an extremely spectacular and miraculous hall.
Jiu Xiaohan simply glanced at it, and based on visual inspection, the highest point in the cave was about 8 feet six, the widest point was about 6 feet eight, and the deepest point was about thirty feet.
The arc-shaped cave roof has a wonderful lava landscape, with strange-shaped stalactite lava hanging everywhere. There are pointed cone-shaped ones, like pendulum hanging from a hanging bell. There are also waterfall-shaped ones, as lifelike as if they were real.
It cascades down like a smooth flow for thousands of miles. There are also pumpkin-shaped ones, bamboo shoots-shaped ones, pineapple-shaped ones, and lychee-shaped ones... What’s more interesting are some. At first glance, some of them look like an elephant’s trunk spraying water.
Some are like monkeys picking peaches, others are like double dragons playing with pearls, and some are like lions rolling embroidered balls...
