Holy Bone

Chapter 344: Bridge

Avenue induction!

Yinde one hundred!
Jin An stared blankly.

He always thought that only by exorcising evil spirits can there be Yin virtues, but he didn't expect that Polygonum multiflorum also has Yin virtues?

Exorcism?

His heart skipped a beat, could it be that the Polygonum multiflorum that appeared in the underground palace is also considered an evil spirit, a kind of dirty thing?
Thinking that this Polygonum multiflorum is strangely planted on people and grows by sucking human blood, it is really the same as dirty things, but because it is daytime, he didn't realize it at first.

But here comes another question, are plants a kind of dirt?
Thinking of this, Jin An asked the old Taoist: "Old Taoist, this Polygonum multiflorum appears so strangely, evil, do you think this Polygonum multiflorum is also a kind of dirty things?"

"Dirty things are not limited to ghosts and corpses?"

The old Taoist didn't even think about it, and said with a matter of course: "Little brother, can the Polygonum multiflorum that grows on the cliff be the same as the Polygonum multiflorum that grows in the mass graves of the dead?"

"Even if the underground palace in front of us used to be a fairy palace, no matter how magnificent it is, it's a fairyland on earth, but now it's a gloomy ruin. The spirit of immortality is gone, but there are quite a lot of dead spirits."

Hearing what the old Taoist said, Jin An did not refute. He looked at the cremated corpse in the coffin with some pity, and he had a hunch that the Polygonum multiflorum had not fully grown, otherwise there would be more yin virtues, and it would not be only a hundred yin virtues.

But then he thought about it again, this is the Daochang Palace in the Paradise of the Cave, where many amazing and unknown things are buried. No one knows how many dangers are hidden in this underground palace. Ya knife.

It's better to be safe.

Jin An shouted to cut the sword, and the two lifted the coffin lid and closed the sarcophagus again.

This person has died in a foreign country, and there is no need to expose his body to the wilderness, it is better to bury him in a place that can shelter from the wind and rain, and treat it as the cause and effect of returning the fragments of Luo Geng's jade plate.

Not long after entering the underground palace, one person died, and the team continued on the road in a somewhat silent atmosphere.

After leaving the octagonal tower of the mortuary, there is only one passage, which is a tomb passage that goes up obliquely. There are many symmetrical ear chambers on both sides of the tomb passage.

This ear chamber is not used to store coffins, but is usually a sacrifice pit for cattle, horses, sheep or slaves, a place for offering sacrifices, or a place for placing other valuable things for the owner of the tomb.

But this is the Daochang Palace, so there will definitely not be a sacrificial pit, and there is no main tomb here, but there is a mortuary tower where many immortal Taoist priests are stored, so Jin An speculates that the ear chambers on the left and right are Used to store offerings or valuables.

But this is not the main tomb, so it should be no more expensive than it is.

The three of them walked into those ear rooms one by one to check.

It was found that in those ear rooms, apart from some old clay pots that no one wanted, there were murals on the walls, but those murals were also like the murals on the last floor of the mortuary tower, dissolving with the wall and turning into a red wall, The murals were badly damaged.

The road was peaceful, and I don’t know if the Immortal Tomb Room didn’t bother to set up those heretical traps, or they were all leveled up by the people from the Tianshi Mansion along the way. In the dark and quiet underground palace, except for the footsteps of the three of them There was no other movement until, suddenly, a large underground cave formed naturally appeared.

This big cave has a lot of space. The three of them stood on the edge and looked down. It was so dark that they couldn't see to the bottom.

Jin An tried to kick a stone into the cave under his feet, but the small stone fell into a black hole that could swallow everything, and he was stunned for a long time without any movement.

"Is this cave as deep as the deep valley outside?" The old Taoist raised his mouth.

Jin'an and Chijian didn't talk to the old Taoist priest, but looked at the only way to the opposite bank in front of them, which was a luxurious stone bridge made of white marble.

The stone bridge straddles the cave ingeniously. Many auspicious clouds and auspicious animals are carved on the bridge, such as dragons, phoenixes and unicorns. A large number of gemstones adorn the eyes of the beasts. Red, blue, and yellow are like the finishing touch, revitalizing those auspicious beasts.

Before the magnificent underground palace was destroyed, this stone bridge must have been as beautiful as a fairyland on earth, but now there is only darkness and spooky and empty silence everywhere.

However, on the luxurious and imposing stone bridge spanned by white marble stones, talisman papers appeared the most, and the bridge was covered with a large number of yellow talismans.

"Old Taoist, when it comes to the deepest research on yellow talismans, it is up to you to see what kind of yellow talismans these are. If they can appear in the underground palace, can they be evil spirit talismans or exorcism talismans? But how can I look at them with you? Are the evil spirit talismans and exorcism talismans that are always displayed in front of my eyes different?" Jin An called the old Taoist priest.

Unexpectedly, even the old Taoist didn't figure out what kind of yellow talismans these were. The old Taoist shook his head while studying and said, "Little brother, don't blame the old Taoist for damaging morale. These talismans are too old. I've seen it, but..."

The old Taoist paused, continued to study the yellow talisman and said, "Little brother, look at these yellow talismans, there is a symbol of wind. I guess the old Taoist should be a talisman like Fengbo Yufeng? It is probably used to act as a stabilizing stone. The role of the bridge?"

"Look at these stone bridges, many gems inlaid in the eye sockets of divine beasts have been pried away by people. The prying marks are still new. It should be done by the group of people who went to the underground palace earlier. These people pried away the gems, but they didn't Taking away a yellow talisman, some of them should have noticed that these yellow talismans are related to the stable stone bridge."

"The old Taoist feels that we should not touch these yellow talismans. The ancestors who laid down these yellow talismans thousands of years ago have their own reasons. Don't lose the big because of small things. Halfway through, the stone bridge collapsed."

Jin An, who originally wanted to walk along a yellow talisman, could only put away his itchy hands after hearing what the old Taoist said. Next, the three of them started to walk up the stone bridge.

This stone bridge spans a long distance, definitely no less than thirty feet.

Jin An and the old Taoist were curiously discussing along the way, how did the immortals in this ashram build such a long stone bridge?It's simply uncanny workmanship.

It can also be seen from it that this blessed land was once so glorious before it was shattered, and it is estimated that all of them are land gods.

The result of the final discussion is that this white marble stone bridge should be constructed by strong men from the third realm or even above the third realm, using the method of spirit and soul to travel to imperial objects, piece by piece of white marble stone, and then separate them like Luban mortise and tenon. Empty build up.

Chi Jian is not good at talking, so he was honest and quiet all the way, quietly listening to the discussion between Jin An and the old Taoist priest.

"Tsk tsk, this stone bridge is built so grandly and imposingly, little brother, how many land gods from the imperial court of the day did you use to build the bridge? At least dozens of people? The grassland tribe, Mobei ancient country, Nanman Wu tribe, the four seas and ten thousand islands and other third-level masters, the number is not as large as a bridge-building team in other people's dojos." The old Taoist exclaimed.

At this time, the team of three people was about to reach the end of the stone bridge, and the rock wall and tomb passage on the other side of the stone bridge were already faintly visible.

"what?"

Jin An groaned softly, a cluster of Polygonum multiflorum grew out of the joints of the white marble stone bridge, one, two, three...a total of five or six Polygonum multiflorum grew together.

Just when he found out, the old Taoist priest and Jian Jian also saw the bunch of Polygonum multiflorum.

The old Taoist priest, who had seen the tragic appearance of the smiling face, did not dare to get closer to look at the sinister Polygonum multiflorum, and said suspiciously from a distance: "Little brother, look at those Polygonum multiflorum... do they look like the ones we met before, with smiling faces?" The blood-sucking fleece-flower root on the back of the corpse?"

Jin An's expression froze, and he asked instead: "Old Daoist, haven't you noticed that one of these Polygonum multiflorum plants has been picked?"

Jin'an's eyesight is better than that of the old Taoist. Hearing what he said, the old Taoist took a few steps closer to take a closer look, and he really found that there was one flower missing from the bunch of Polygonum multiflorum in front of him.

Moreover, the root picking marks are still new, and it looks like a Polygonum multiflorum plant has just been picked off by someone.

This discovery scared the old Taoist back to stand beside Jin An again: "Could it be that the young Polygonum multiflorum was picked off by that smiling corpse?"

"That person greedily mistakenly regarded the Polygonum multiflorum in this underground palace as having miraculous effects on cultivation like the exotic flowers and plants in the temple outside, and then ate it? As a result, the Polygonum multiflorum that was eaten was on his back. Will it grow out of flesh and blood?"

The more the old Taoist talked, the more he felt that he was right. You must know that Polygonum multiflorum can grow in this underground palace, which is similar to Polygonum multiflorum growing in corpses in mass burial mounds. It is born with a lot of corpse gas and poison.

I couldn't help but rejoice from the bottom of my heart, fortunately, there was a lesson learned from the past, which saved him from disaster.

It is very easy to verify whether it is the same Polygonum multiflorum. Jin An approached steadily, and the Kunwu knife in his hand ignited a poisonous black flame, and directly swept away the Polygonum multiflorum that grew together.

puff.

Polygonum multiflorum was engulfed and burned by black flames.

Avenue induction!

Yinde one hundred!
Yinde one hundred!
……

A total of five hundred yin virtues were obtained.

Sure enough, it was the Polygonum multiflorum, which was poisoned by corpses. It seems that the truth of the death of the smiling corpse has been found.

"Old Daoist, cut the sword, for the rest of our journey, try not to touch anything you see. It seems that some changes have taken place after the underground palace was destroyed. The yin energy here is too heavy, and mutated yin things have grown. Maybe there are other more powerful evil spirits or ancient corpses hidden in the depths of the underground palace, so you have to be more careful on the road ahead." Jin An told the two of them.

On the next road, they encountered Polygonum multiflorum again, but this time there was only one hundred Yinde, because there was only one Polygonum multiflorum.

Jin An is happy.

There seems to be more than one place in this underground palace with this kind of corpse poison Polygonum multiflorum?
After a few steps, the three of them finally stepped onto the opposite bank. Suddenly, Jin An found that Jian Jian, who had been walking at the back of the team, had stopped at some point.

"What's wrong with Sword Cutting? Did you find anything?" Jin An solemnly asked Sword Cutting.

Sword-cutting is the master of robbers who is the face of the living and dead. Since he entered the underground palace, he has never ignored any subtle changes in the sword-cutting.

"Master, there seems to be movement in the mortuary tower."

After cutting the sword, before Jin An and the old Taoist could ask more questions, he was lying on the ground and listening closely to the movement of the ground in the distance.

After about half a cup of tea, Chi Jian stood up again: "Master, there is no more movement."

It was obviously a serious topic with a crisis coming, but Chijian was still as dumb as before, and his tone of voice was flat.

If it wasn't for knowing Chijian's character like this, if it were someone else, he would think that Chijian was deliberately making fun of the atmosphere of the tomb, deliberately making fun of everyone.

Hearing that there was something else behind their buttocks, whether it was a person or a dirty thing, the old Taoist stared at Shajian: "Shajian is so far away, can you really hear it clearly? Someone is really following Behind us?"

It is said that people are unlucky to drink cold water and get stuffed between their teeth. The old Taoist has just finished speaking, ah!A shrill, hoarse scream came from the depths of the grave in front of them.

This is a wolf in the front and a tiger in the back, and it directly covers the three of them.

"what!"

"help me!"

"I can't see anything!"

"Yes, is there anyone, is there anyone who can hear me, help me! Help me!"

The screams were getting closer and closer, and it sounded hoarse and scary, as if screaming from a leaking throat... Could it be alive?But the voice sounds so scary, doesn't it seem like a living person?
Just as the three of them held their breath, shrill and desperate screams approached the stone bridge, accompanied by the muffled sound of stumbling like sandbags falling several times.

Crackling, the torch twisted and burned.

Under the light and shadow, a figure was gradually reflected from the stone wall of the tomb passage approaching, and as the torch finally illuminated the whole figure of the man, the old Taoist gasped uncontrollably.

A dead man wearing the robes of the Heavenly Master's Mansion, his eyes were stabbed blind, his throat was cut open by a sharp knife, and his eyes and neck were bleeding continuously. He was touching the wall of the tomb passage and approaching them. blood.

As he walked, he stretched out his tongue that was dyed blue, and kept licking an eyeball in his hand. Taking a closer look at the eyeball, wasn't it the sapphire in the eye socket of the beast that was pried away on the stone bridge?

"This……"
