Cao Cao called me to rob a tomb

Chapter 858

While talking, Yu Ji didn't know whether he was angry with Yang Wanli, or if he was so confident that he actually walked towards Tiankeng.

"Old man wait a minute, don't rush this moment, don't take risks!"

Wu Liang finally couldn't help but stopped him with a loud voice.

"Young master, this old man knows that the thunder will never come again this day."

Yu Ji still insisted.

"That's not in a hurry. Even if the thunder doesn't come, Yinglong's residual power should not be underestimated. You wait here with me for a while, and I will go to check with you later."

Wu Liang said in a serious tone.

"This... is also good."

Yu Ji just turned around when he heard the words, and took another look at Yang Wanli and teased, "You can see clearly, it's not that the old man dared not go to check, but that the young master didn't teach the old man to go, so it's not that the old man is not confident enough."

"Okay, okay, I guess you won this time, okay?"

Seeing Wu Liang blocking Yu Ji, Yang Wanli didn't dare to use words to provoke Yu Ji at this moment, so he could only laugh and say.

"What do you mean I won?"

Yu Ji was dissatisfied.

"Okay, okay, you won and I lost, so it's okay, right?"

Yang Wanli put on gestures of surrender again and again.

"Hahaha……"

Seeing that the two of them were playing tricks like this, and there was even a little bit of flirting between young couples, everyone couldn't help laughing knowingly.

……

Such a wait is a moment.

Everyone had already got up from the ground, but they didn't see Lei appearing again that day, and they didn't hear any movement from the tiankeng. Everything was verifying Yu Ji's previous judgment.

Wu Liang felt that the waiting time was almost up, so he finally said to everyone: "You guys wait here for a while, Dian Wei and I will go to the front together to test things out, if nothing happens, you can follow me later. "

"Young master, this old man pleads to go with you."

Yu Ji immediately volunteered.

"Then come together, and the others stand by."

Wu Liang nodded slightly, and he took Yu Ji and Dian Wei cautiously towards Tiantian Pit.

Everyone knew Wu Liang's temperament, looked at his and Dian Wei's backs and didn't say much, they just gathered together one by one consciously, and silently prepared to respond at any time.

So come to the edge of the tiankeng.

Wu Liang opened the vajra umbrella in advance and slowly leaned out, looking towards the bottom of the pit that day.

At this moment, the inner wall of the tiankeng was still pitch black, and at the very center of the tiankeng, it was the huge white skeleton that was entrenched.

The skeleton was not crushed by nine consecutive thunderbolts as Wu Liang thought, and it still maintained a complete posture at this moment, climbing together like a snake, with two skeleton wings that were more exaggerated than the body covering its torso. If it wasn't for the skeleton, it would look like it was just sleeping.

Besides, Wu Liang didn't see anything unusual.

"Is it dead?"

However, Wu Liang still did not dare to take it lightly.

The image of this huge skeleton rising into the air just now is still vivid in my mind, and no one is sure whether it is still alive now, and whether it will suddenly go berserk.

In front of such a huge monster, Wu Liang's vajra umbrella can only resist the stones that fall from it at most. If it is really facing its attack, it will not have any protective effect at all.

"Young Master, this old man thought that even if Ying Long had taken on such a posture, he would definitely not be killed by the thunder. After all, it can be seen from this huge tiankeng that Ying Long has already met countless times of thunder disasters here. , and we are still able to see it soaring into the air, which already speaks volumes."

Yu Ji continued, "However, Tianlei is the most powerful force in the sun. Ying Long must have consumed a huge amount of strength just now to fight against it. Now is the weakest time. If you have plans to investigate this keel, you may not be able to do it now." It is the safest time, as time goes by, Ying Long will recover slowly, and there will be no chance to get closer to investigate."

Unlike entering the ancient tomb before, Yu Ji showed an extremely rare spirit of adventure in the face of the dragon and the thunder robbery this time.

This may be precisely because Lei Jie is closely related to the highest realm of Taoism, and this is what he pursues all his life, even higher than life, so even if he may pay the price of his life for it, it is worthwhile in his opinion.

"What you said makes sense..."

Wu Liang nodded slightly, with a thoughtful look on his face.

He is naturally also very interested in this skeleton, and as the only special incident encountered after entering this secret realm, Wu Liang has reason to suspect that this thing is also related to the inheritance of "Bian Que", and it is also related to whether they can Contact with the strange poison on his body, after all, if he can't find anything now, Hua Tuo will basically explain it here.

Wu Liang always firmly believed that Hua Tuo would not die here. If he died so easily, he and the others in the Huan army would probably have to wait to die.

Under such circumstances, Wu Liang could only be a dead horse as a living horse doctor. As long as he had a slight doubt, he would never sit still, and naturally he didn't mind making some risky decisions.

Thinking of this, Wu Liang said again: "But we can't just go down to investigate, Hua Tuo also has to go down with us."

"Why is this?"

Yu Ji didn't know the history, so naturally he didn't know what Wu Liang was thinking, so he couldn't help but looked back at the weak Hua Tuo and asked doubtfully, "This person has been deeply poisoned now, even walking is a little difficult, if he meets him after going down, What an accident, I'm afraid that he will not only be of no help, but also a burden that must be taken care of by a young master."

"But he is the only one who is inspired by the holy mountain. In Taoism, this person is the man of destiny. If there are any shocking secrets hidden in this holy mountain, he is the easiest person to unlock the secret."

Wu Liang said solemnly, "And we are uninvited outsiders. After experiencing many things before, I have realized that many ancient inheritances are related to chance. If there is destiny inheritance, it will be at your fingertips. The treasure is right in front of you, and you can only pass by it."

"This...Although the old man doesn't want to admit it, it is indeed the truth. Perhaps the young master is right and should bring him along."

Yu Ji finally figured out the joints, nodded and said.

Having made up his mind, Wu Liang immediately took action.

All the backbones of the Tuan army participated in the operation, because everyone was poisoned, if something happened to those who went down, the rest might not survive for long.

And those soldiers of the Huren army who were not poisoned stayed on top to respond.

Wu Liang had already ordered Yang Wanli to call the soldier with the highest rank among them aside, and privately told him that in case of any accident, he would immediately take the remaining soldiers of the Huan army out of the secret place to flee for their lives. Someone brought the news back to Chen Liu.

As for Hua Tuo.

Dian Wei and Yang Wanli carried it down the Tiankeng alternately.

Naturally, Hua Tuo didn't have any opinion on this, on the contrary, he was very grateful to Wu Liang.

He came to this secret place and lived in such a harsh environment for so long, which has proved his determination and desire for the inheritance of "Bian Que".

Coupled with the fact that the strange poison on his body has already begun to destroy the internal organs, seeing that time is running out, he is more open-minded than Wu Liang and others, and has a more serious mentality of treating a dead horse as a living horse doctor.

……

Another moment later.

Wu Liang and others went down to a place close to the bottom of the tiankeng.

At this time, they finally found something different, which was a layer of uniform black powder, which looked like crushed coke.

And some complete black carbonized substances are mixed in these black powders.

These were uniform cylinders, resembling charred vines, some thicker, some thinner, some straight, some curly.

The thicker ones are about the size of an adult's thigh.

The thinner ones can only be compared with fingers.

"Young master, there shouldn't be such a thing before, right?"

Yu Ji walked carefully on the slope, and while asking questions, he accidentally stepped on a piece of such a foreign object.

The foreign object made a crisp "click" sound, and it had already turned into black powder covering Yu Ji's footprints, and it was in a state of breaking at the touch of a finger.

Wu Liang knew that Yu Ji did not come down with him last time, so he asked such a question, so he patiently replied: "No, these things should have appeared together with the bones of the dragon... For the time being, I still can't see what it is , but judging from their state, [-]% of them came into this appearance after encountering a thunderstorm."

While talking, Wu Liang has been carefully observing these black powders and these cylindrical cokes, but he hasn't found anything yet.

"So, these things should be the flesh and blood of Ying Long?"

Yu Ji said seriously again, "When Yinglong appeared for the first time, his whole body was scarlet, and he looked like a majestic red dragon, but after being subjected to the thunder once, only a pair of skeletons remained. If something appeared together with Ying Long, then it could only be his flesh that was destroyed by the thunder."

"But how could Yinglong's flesh look like this, and in my opinion, no matter how unbearable Yinglong is, its flesh and flesh shouldn't be so vulnerable...Stop!"

Wu Liang still had doubts about this, but when he said this, his tone suddenly stopped, and then he waved his hand to make everyone stop, and squatted down to check the papaya-sized piece in front of him that had also turned into charred of foreign matter.

Judging from the shape of the foreign body, it looks like a head.

There is a mouth like a bird's beak on the head, and there is a ring of tentacles or suckers on the edge of the mouth. At this moment, the mouth is slightly opened, revealing many uneven layers inside. Three layers of sharp teeth...

"Is it the kind of strange insect that attacked the big dog?"

Wu Liang's eyes widened immediately.

He had carefully observed the strange insects clinging to the floating corpses before, especially the mouthparts of that strange insects.

Therefore, seeing the larger head and the unique mouthparts in front of him, Wu Liang immediately recognized that this thing was definitely the same thing as the monster attacking the big dog.

"what?"

Everyone in the Huanren Army showed suspicion when they heard the words.

How could that kind of strange insect also appear in this small world, and appear together with Yinglong's skeleton?
After all, there is no way for them to go ashore, and it is even more impossible for them to pass through the three gates to enter and leave this small world...

"Could it be..."

Zhen Mi also frowned, and analyzed deeply, "Gentleman, before that Yinglong was red, and this strange insect was also red when it was in the water. Do you think it is possible that Yinglong we just saw is red?" It was originally a skeleton, but it is only full of these strange insects, so it looks like a red giant dragon?"

"It's not impossible."

Wu Liang nodded slightly, "It's not difficult to prove this. This kind of strange insects like to attach to bones and suck marrow, so the bones that they have attached to will leave holes. When we reach the skeleton, we only need to check the keel. You can tell if there are a lot of holes in the surface."

Now Wu Liang is more and more suspicious that this strange insect is the "bone-eating worm" he guessed before.

Although the "bone-eating worms" discovered by later generations are very small, and even can only be described as "tiny" in their childhood, compared with the "bone-eating worms" that like to cling to whale bones in later generations, the strange worms in front of them are more likely to cling to whale bones. What is bigger is the keel. Although the whale is huge, how can it be compared with the legendary dragon?

Moreover, any species has the possibility of variation, especially when the situation is greatly changed.

Even if it is also a "bone-eating worm", it is in one state when it uses a whale bone as a host, but will it still be in the same state when it uses a legendary keel as a host?

It's a pity that the big dog is still on the top of the tiankeng, and Wu Liang doesn't want to make too much noise and call him, otherwise he will have to ask the big dog when this strange insect appeared in the Yellow River... After all, it cannot be ruled out that after this holy mountain became the estuary of the Yellow River, the "bone-eating worms" in the ocean climbed up the keel against the current. "The "bone-eating worm" gradually became the "giant bone-eating worm" of today.

As for why these strange insects appeared in the secret realm.

Wu Liang suspected that this might have something to do with Yinglong's bones. If what Yu Ji said before was correct, this small world was actually the place where Yinglong passed the catastrophe, and it was a keel mound created by itself.

Then Yinglong's bones are very likely to exist in both worlds at the same time, and these strange insects have formed a parasitic relationship with the bones, so they can also enter and exit the secret realm with the dragon bones without passing through the three gates.

with such questions.

Wu Liang and others continued to grope downwards, and soon they finally arrived at the skeleton at the bottom of the tiankeng.

at this time.

"what!"

Bai Jingjing suddenly let out a painful scream.

"Jingjing, what's wrong with you?"

Wu Liang hurriedly looked back, only to see Bai Jingjing squatting on the ground covering her ears for some reason, the expression on her pretty face was extremely painful, as if she was enduring unbearable torture.

"I……"

With the support of Zhen Mi and Cao Ni, Bai Jingjing resisted the stalemate for a long time and finally recovered a little bit. At this moment, her complexion was pale and sweaty, and she gritted her teeth and said, "A strange voice suddenly rang in my ears." It sounded like it was about to pierce my head..."
