In the thatched house, except for the calmness of Village Chief Yang, Xiao Jingchen and Murong Yu'er were both surprised. They didn't expect it to be this person. Before he embarked on the path of cultivation, he was a general of a great country. He was victorious in every battle and was invincible.
Became the God of War.
He had killed millions of people at the same time. He was a famous executioner, cruel-hearted, and killed without batting an eye. Everywhere he passed was desolate.
Later, due to his great achievements, he was arrogant and insulted the court. He was secretly poisoned and imprisoned. He was almost tortured to death. However, he was saved by a mysterious man. From then on, there was no news. The generation of God of War was also gradually forgotten by people.
Already.
At this moment, I didn't expect to hear something about him. I would be surprised if I wasn't surprised. Xiao Jingchen looked at the man on the wall and felt very complicated. He didn't know how to evaluate this man's life. He was not a hero, maybe he was half a hero. After all, he was not a hero.
Conspiracy to usurp power.
"Little brother, I know you are surprised, but this is absolutely true. Bai Qi's body is indeed buried under this place." Village Chief Yang's firm words carried a sense of certainty.
"Why hang his portrait here? According to what you just said, the remaining hundreds of people are your ancestors. He killed so many people, and you still enshrine him here." Xiao Jingchen was indeed very worried at this time.
I wonder if there is something hidden in it.
"Although he killed tens of millions of people, he still accepted the instructions of others, and finally let our ancestors go against their will. In the end, there was hatred and kindness, and it was all even. Unexpectedly, he rescued us again in the end.
He can be regarded as a benefactor." Village Chief Yang felt heavy in his heart, not knowing whether this was right or wrong.
"So, this person is not the cruel and violent person who kills innocent people indiscriminately as in the legend." Murong Yu'er interrupted and interjected, slightly confused.
"Let future generations decide what is right and wrong. If you go underground, you may be able to find out what happened at that time." Village Chief Yang smiled meaningfully and stopped talking.
The two of them looked at each other, as if they had a tacit understanding, and nodded to each other at the same time.
"Village Chief Yang, how do you get down there?" Xiao Jingchen asked.
"I have the jade medal with me, and I will give it to you now. I hope you can go there early so that you can solve this confusing puzzle." Village Chief Yang took out a sandalwood box from his arms. The box was flat and the size of the palm of his hand.
Yes, exuding a faint murderous aura from the outside.
When he saw the wooden box, the spiritual power in his body was beating chaotically. Xiao Jingchen hurriedly restrained his spiritual power and suppressed it. He looked at the wooden box with a shiny surface and a black light in surprise.
"Little brother, this is a box made of ten thousand years of sandalwood. It can suppress all murderous intent. Unfortunately, after the passage of time, the sandalwood itself has been severely corroded, so the rare murderous intent is missing." Village Chief Yang also said slightly.
Sighed.
"This thing is too murderous. If you put it on your body, sooner or later it will corrode your mind and cause harm to everyone." Xiao Jingchen stared at the wooden box and said with an ugly expression.
"I know this, so I'm asking you to help me. I hope you won't refuse," Village Chief Yang said with a hint of expectation in his eyes.
"Okay, let's go down there tomorrow morning." Xiao Jingchen thought for a moment and then agreed to Village Chief Yang's request.
When Village Chief Yang saw Xiao Jingchen agreeing, he was very happy and hurriedly took his hand and walked out, leaving Murong Yu'er alone in the thatched house looking at the portrait, her eyes shining, and she followed him after a moment
out.
The lights were brightly lit outside, and the whole village gathered in the open space in the middle to light bonfires, drink wine, eat meat, sing and dance, and the night was full of cheerful laughter. It was so peaceful. Xiao Jingchen looked at the expressions of everyone and felt deeply.
The life you long for most is the life you long for.
The night quietly went away, and a ray of sunshine shone over the village. The cool morning air was filled with a hint of moisture. At this time, in addition to four figures in the open space, there was also a figure tied at the feet.
"Little brother, be more careful when you get down there. I will leave little Mengmeng to you. I hope you will be safe down there." Village Chief Yang handed Duanmu Meng's little hand to Xiao Jingchen's and told him.
"Don't worry, Village Chief Yang, I will protect Mengmeng." Xiao Jingchen affirmed as he looked at Duanmu Meng standing next to him.
Village Chief Yang immediately walked to a place with unkempt weeds and moved a stone vigorously. Then, the open space trembled, and the bodies of several people shook back and forth, as strong as an earthquake.
A large crack extended from the ground to both sides, and there was an endless wooden ladder below, stretching underground, giving off an eerie air of coolness.
"Go ahead, I'll wait for you to come back." Village Chief Yang looked at the three of them, sighed softly, and slowly turned his head.
Xiao Jingchen carried the wizard on his shoulders and walked down first. Murong Yu'er pulled Duanmu Meng and followed closely. Several figures slowly disappeared into the darkness, and the cracks slowly healed. The surface was still flat.
.
"You are young, possess strange skills, and are an alchemist. It seems that the suppressive things below are very helpful to you. If you have been addicted for too long, the world should forget about it. I hope you can succeed." Village Chief Yang stood in the open space.
above, muttering to himself, the expectation in his heart getting stronger and stronger.
The darkness blocked the sight, making it difficult to see the situation ahead. A bottomless wooden ladder made a creaking sound, and the surrounding damp walls were dripping with drops of water from time to time. The fusion of the two sounds was like a rhythmic note.
Same.
"Brother, I'm so cold." There was a slight tremor in Duanmu Meng's voice, and her lips trembled from time to time.
The temperature gets lower as you go down, and it feels like the bottom is like an ice cellar. The air-conditioning rises up from time to time, and even Xiao Jingchen feels slightly cold.
"Brother Xiao, if we continue to go down, I'm afraid neither of us can hold on. This air-conditioning carries a corrosive cold air that penetrates the skin and enters the body. It will slowly freeze the organs. Over time, I'm afraid it will freeze from the inside.
It's really weird to die of freezing outside." Murong Yu'er spoke at this moment, with a slightly solemn look on her face.
Seeing Duanmu Meng trembling non-stop, Xiao Jingchen summoned the spiritual power in his body and covered his body. A thin layer of gold shone brightly on Mengmeng's body, instantly lighting up the dark cave around him.
Murong Yu'er also released her spiritual power and wrapped her body. Suddenly the cold breath could not enter her body. She relaxed a little and continued walking down.
"stop"
Xiao Jingchen suddenly stopped and looked around. There was no passage ahead, only a large stone wall blocking a few people.
"Brother Xiao, what's going on?" Murong Yu'er also saw that the road ahead was broken, there was no way to go, and there was nothing else except the wooden ladder behind him.
At this time, the sandalwood box in Xiao Jingchen's sleeve suddenly glowed, and then shook violently, as if it was about to escape from the control of the wooden box and escape.
Seeing this, Xiao Jingchen frowned and looked intently at the big stone wall. He saw that there was a pit that was about to sink in the center of the stone wall. It was square. It didn't look like it was naturally formed. It was probably man-made.
"Could it be"
Suddenly an idea appeared in Xiao Jingchen's mind, and he hurriedly took out the shaking wooden box from his sleeve.
I saw the contents inside being hit violently, trying to come out, and there were some cracks around the wooden box, which should be caused by the impact.
Xiao Jingchen bit his lower lip, with a sudden heartbeat, he took off the seal on the wooden box and slowly opened the wooden box with trembling hands.
"Bang bang"
A murderous aura that was a thousand times more ferocious than before came out from the gap in the wooden box, burying the place where a few people were standing. At the same time, the jade tablet lying quietly in the wooden box flashed with white light and swung away.
The control is suspended in mid-air, just in line with the concave pit in the stone wall.
"Quick, hold your breath, don't absorb the white smoke." Xiao Jingchen saw nothing but white murderous aura in front of his eyes, and shouted hurriedly.
"Brother Xiao, where are you? Why can't I see you?"
"Big brother, where are you? Mengmeng is scared."
The voices of the two people rang in his ears, but nothing could be seen. Xiao Jingchen was extremely disturbed now. He could only mobilize his spiritual power to fight. The colorless and odorless white gas followed Xiao Jingchen's breathing and penetrated a little into his nasal cavity.
in the middle, drifting towards the central nervous system, and the wizard lying on the ground was not spared from the accident. The white air went in along the corners of his slightly open mouth while breathing, and his fingers moved slightly inadvertently without being noticed.
"Huhu"
At this moment, the white murderous aura suddenly changed its direction in a strange way and floated forward, faster and faster, as if there was a suction force in front of it. It flew away crazily. After a while, the white color in front of the cave disappeared, and the sight was completely blurred.
clear.
"Are you okay?" Xiao Jingchen hurriedly ran to the two of them to check.
"Brother, I'm fine, I'm just scared."
"Brother Xiao, I'm fine too. What happened just now?"
Xiao Jingchen checked the two of them and found nothing, and felt relieved.
Just as he was about to speak, he saw Duanmu Meng staring ahead with a pair of big eyes, a look of horror in his eyes, pointing forward with trembling fingers, and murmuring vaguely: "Brother, you
Look, what is that?"
Xiao Jingchen followed his gaze and couldn't help but take a deep breath, his face looking extremely ugly.
I saw that the stone wall in front of me disappeared, and a wide road was in front of me. Both sides of the road were covered with white bones, and they were looking ahead in various postures, as if they were welcoming someone important, which was very confusing.
An extremely powerful storm suddenly swept through the cave, and the cold breath enveloped the three figures, bringing with it a chilly air. The bones rattled in the storm, which was unusually eerie.
At this time, Murong Yu'er also felt a little worried in her heart. She didn't know what existed in front of her. Looking at the formation, apart from the killing god Bai Qi, there should be some terrifying existence. If the disparity was too big, it would be terrible. She couldn't help but
His eyebrows were furrowed and his long black hair was blown away in the wind, as bright as the Milky Way, and the corners of his mouth moved slightly as he wanted to speak but stopped.
"Don't worry, I'm here and I won't let you get hurt. Let's go." A smile appeared on Xiao Jingchen's face, and his soft tone sounded in the cave. He narrowed his eyes and looked at the scene in front of him. He calmly picked up the wizard and transformed.
It turned into a blue shadow and ran towards it.
Murong Yu'er also relaxed her mood, turned into a yellow shadow and pulled Duanmu Meng to follow quickly, and then disappeared into the darkness.
An adventure in an underground cave is about to begin.
