Chapter four hundred and sixty-ninth Liu Yun Dijun tales
Looking at these hands carved from white jade, Lu Zhan suddenly thought of the two hands he saw when he was sitting on the "Soul Pearl Throne" half a year ago and watching "Lord Liuyun" perform "Tao Sheng Yun Destroying Cannon".
The two jade-hand statues in front of me are very similar, especially the two circles of ancient curse-like tattoos on the backs of their hands.
It seems that these two hands may be a symbol of the "Liuyun Emperor" back then.
Lu Zhan continued to walk up the stone path, and soon came to the entrance of a cave. It was the severe winter season, and there were relatively few tourists. There were a few vendors guarding the entrance of the cave. When they saw Lu Zhan coming here, they immediately rushed up to sell products.
The souvenirs are nothing more than statues of "Emperor Liuyun", secret manuals of magical skills, anecdotes of his life, and the like.
Lu Zhan pushed aside the vendors and walked directly into the cave.
I saw a long corridor behind the entrance of the cave. When I first entered the cave, I smelled a very strange fragrance in my nose. This fragrance made people feel refreshed, but after smelling it for a while, I felt like it was running through my body.
There was a bone-chilling chill, and my hands and feet began to feel a little numb.
This is in a cave. Logically speaking, it should feel warm. How come this strange feeling occurs? Is there something else strange in this fragrance?
Lu Zhan walked along the long corridor and saw that the stone walls on both sides of the corridor were covered with exquisite murals. These murals were painted by later generations based on the life and deeds of "Emperor Liuyun". It looked like
They are all handmade by masters, and the characters in the murals are lifelike. Some murals
They depict magnificent battle scenes. Some murals depict the scene of the "Liu Yun Emperor" ascending to the throne. Some murals depict scenes of the emperor handling state affairs. The scenes in each mural are different, but the theme is the same.
, all singing praises to the "Liuyun Emperor".
There were two murals that made Lu Zhan stop for a long time. The first mural was the most magnificent of these murals. It depicts the scene of the "Battle of Kuang Biao Domain". All he could see was the endless sea of golden clouds in the sky.
The ground roared past, flames raged on the ground, and the mountains collapsed and the ground cracked, creating a scene of purgatory. The scene was exactly the same as what he had seen in the "Secret Array of Illusions".
The second mural is very strange: in the center of the picture stands a square-faced man wearing a golden robe. He is seen casting a spell toward the sky with both hands, and a golden flower is painted in the sky above his head.
The clouds, the whole cloud is like an upside-down lotus, with golden cloud petals flying in the sky one by one. And in the lotus-shaped
There were some cultivators standing near the golden clouds. All of these cultivators had expressions of horror and pain, and blazing golden flames were emitting from their bodies. The strange thing was that these golden flames did not burn them.
Instead, their flesh and skin were completely melted away, leaving only a gloomy white skeleton.
This second mural seems to depict a kind of martial arts. The square-faced man in the center of the picture wearing a golden robe is obviously the "Liuyun Emperor". Especially his two hands with spells on them, and the backs of his hands.
The tattoo of the ancient curse picture is clearly visible.
After looking at the murals, Lu Zhan continued to walk along the corridor. After walking for more than a hundred steps, it suddenly became clear that he had entered a large cave.
I saw a large tree with a strange shape standing in the center of the cave. The diameter of the main trunk of the big tree was more than three feet thick. The tree was not high, and the branches at the end of the tree extended to all sides. All of them actually reached in.
Among the stone walls surrounding the cave.
There are lush branches and leaves on the crown of the tree, and there are some bright red fruits growing on them. The fruits have sharp burrs, which look like peanuts and are in the shape of long strips. The aroma that permeates the cave comes from these fruits.
At this time, two young men dressed as scribes walked into the cave for a tour. Seeing Lu Zhan standing under the tree and looking up at the fruits on the tree, one of the tall scribes introduced him: "This kind of fruit is called the merciless fruit.
, despite its strong aroma, the fruit is actually very poisonous. Not long after you eat it, there will be a strong chill in your blood, and your heart will soon be frozen and stop beating, so people call it
It's the 'heartless fruit'."
Lu Zhan said "Oh", "No wonder I feel a chill in my body when I smell the aroma here. No wonder no one dares to pick such a poisonous fruit."
A short scribe next to him continued: "This big tree is called the 'Merciless Heavenly Fragrance Tree'. There is only one 'Merciless Heavenly Fragrance Tree' in the entire Yunhai Songzhou, and it is said to be a top quality.
It is said that the roots of this big tree can go straight into the ground and touch the Yin veins, so the fruit of this tree is so poisonous."
"The roots of a tree can actually reach the Yin veins underground," Lu Zhan exclaimed: "The roots of this tree must be so long, I'm afraid it may be more than tens of thousands of feet."
The short scribe smiled and said: "That's why there is only this one in the entire Yunhai Songzhou. We call it the sacred tree."
Lu Zhan looked at the numerous fruits on the branches, "No wonder the fruits of this tree grow so well, but no one dares to pick them. It turns out there is such a powerful poison in it."
The tall scribe said: "But it is said that when the 'Liuyun Emperor' was cultivating here, he relied on these 'heartless fruits' to survive."
"What?" Lu Zhan's heart moved and he asked curiously: "How dare he eat such a poisonous fruit?"
"Not only did he dare to eat it," the short scribe nodded: "He also ate a lot. This is called a strange person doing strange things. If it were an ordinary person who ate this kind of fruit, he would die if he didn't eat even a stick of incense. It is said that
There was a master-level cultivator who didn't believe in this evil and risked his life to taste one. On the first day, he was fine. On the second day, he vomited yellow water from his mouth. On the third day, his whole body was ulcerated. On the fourth day, it turned into a puddle of yellow water.
Not even a bit of bone remains.
Later, after the 'Liuyun Emperor' unified all the continents and ruled the world, he often mentioned this 'heartless fruit' to others, saying that he had eaten delicacies all over the world, and the only thing he missed was the 'heartless fruit' here. It's a pity that this kind of 'heartless fruit'
Once the 'Heartless Fruit' leaves this big tree, it will rot within an hour, and it is difficult to grow elsewhere, so he will never be able to taste this fruit elsewhere."
Lu Zhan's eyes left the "Heartless Heavenly Fragrance Tree" and he turned to look around. He saw that except for this strange tree, there was nothing else to see in the cave. There was nothing on the surrounding stone walls.
There are neither traces of carving nor any particularly eye-catching objects.
This made him greatly disappointed. He came here to seek miracles. He hoped to find some relics left by "Emperor Liuyun" here, from which he could gain some information about his cultivation or the techniques he learned.
, but except for a big poisonous tree, there is nothing else for reference. The murals praising virtues painted on the corridor outside can be seen at a glance as being painted by later generations, and they are of no value to him.
Word.
He sighed slightly and muttered: "It turns out that the place where 'Emperor Liuyun' practiced back then was so simple and there was nothing."
The two scribes next to him chuckled when they heard this. The tall scribe laughed and said: "How come there are no things? It's just that those things have now become treasures that cultivators are vying to collect. They can only be found at the auction of the 'Tianshi'
I only saw it occasionally, and I heard that a chamber pot of the 'Liuyun Emperor' can fetch millions of desolate beast cores."
The short scribe said: "It's a pity that he disappeared suddenly and disappeared without a trace. The most precious items he had were placed in his cave and disappeared with him. Otherwise, any of these items would be priceless treasures."
Lu Zhan thought to himself that there was a relic of "Emperor Liuyun", the "Soul Pearl Throne", in his cave. He didn't know what price this thing could fetch at the "Sky Market".
He walked a few steps around the fragrant tree and reached the back of the tree. Suddenly, he stopped and stared firmly at the trunk of the tree——
There is a big tree hole here!
This big tree hole is about seven feet wide and one foot high. Purple light shines faintly in the hole.
Lu Zhan walked to the tree hole and looked into the tree hole. He saw that the tree hole was as big as half a room. The walls were made of rough wood. There was a deep crack above his head leading to the top of the tree trunk.
There is a circle on the ground that shines with a light purple light.
I saw that the circle was about three feet in diameter, and the purple light in the circle was of different shades. If you look carefully, you can faintly reveal a very complicated pattern.
At this time, the two scribes also walked to the tree hole. They saw Lu Zhan standing at the entrance of the hole looking at the ground. The tall scribe said to him: "The 'Liu Yun Emperor' practiced in this tree hole back then.
"
The first reaction in Lu Zhan's mind was: This is the real ruins!
The short scribe said to the tall man: "The technique that 'Liu Yun Emperor' practiced when he was young is called 'Lian Yun Jing Tao**'. That set of techniques was learned in this tree hole. Is this the case?"
?”
"Yes, that is indeed the case," said the tall scribe: "Legend has it that when the 'Liuyun Emperor' stood in the circle of purple light in the center of the tree hole, he could see a strange secret realm. He used to practice cross-legged
Sitting in this purple circle, let your spiritual thoughts enter the secret realm that no one can access, and then you can practice the shocking 'Lotus Clouds and Waves**'."
"Really, then I have to try."
The short scribe got into the hole and walked excitedly to the circle of purple light. He closed his eyes and was silent for a while. The tall scribe asked: "Did you see anything?"
The short scribe sighed dejectedly and said, "I didn't see anything."
The tall scribe smiled and said: "It's strange to be able to see things. I have been here dozens of times, and every time I have to walk to this circle and stand for a while, but I have never seen anything. Several times every year
One hundred thousand people came from all over the country, and everyone wanted to stand in this circle for a while, but I had never heard of it.
Someone has seen something. The 'Liu Yun Emperor' may have indeed comprehended an unprecedented set of techniques here, but he may not have seen anything in this circle. This is just a legend that has been passed down from generation to generation." (To be completed.)
