Chapter 287 What the hell is it?
Luo Ning entered the Cuiyun Cave and found that the cave was completely covered with vegetation and spider webs, as if it was blocked.

Moreover, although it is winter now, the dense vegetation in the cave is lush and lush, and there is no sign of withering at all.

Many of these shrubs have thick bowl mouths.Snake-like vines snaked in the cave.

This kind of place, even those adventure lovers are not willing to come in.Because just opening a path in the hole is a lot of physical work.

If it is not driven by a strong purpose, ghosts will come here.

Mang Mountain is already evil, let alone the Cuiyun Cave in the mountain.Even ordinary tomb robbers dare not enter Cuiyun Cave.

It is rumored that Zhang Daoling built Cuiyun Palace back then to suppress the evil spirit in Cuiyun Cave.

For this reason, when the Taoist Palace was not destroyed, there was a Cuiyun stele at the entrance of the cave, with an ancient stone seal.

Later, the Taoist Palace was destroyed and no one cared about it anymore. Some people did not believe in evil and entered Cuiyun Cave without permission. As a result... they never returned.

Luo Ning's spiritual sense saw that there were traces of chopped tree stumps under the vegetation, indicating that someone drove through the hole.

At least 50 years.

It should be the road opened by Luo Ning and He Jing.

Explain that since they entered, no one has entered this cave for 50 years.

Luo Ning sacrificed a knife, swiped the grass and trees to break Yi, and a road several feet long appeared, and it was as easy as turning the palm of his hand.

After a few knives, the road was opened for [-] meters.

Once the [-] meters passed, there was no vegetation to block it anymore, and finally a smooth cave appeared.

Here, it was already extremely dark, and I couldn't see my fingers.But Luo Ning has spiritual consciousness and can still see clearly.

On the cave wall, there are stone carving symbols everywhere, all of which are left over from ancient times.Even if Luo Ning was already a fifth-rank monk, he still couldn't fully comprehend the meaning of these stone carvings.

These stone carvings are Taoist spells, which have the power of blessing and suppression.

As he went deeper and deeper, Luo Ning's spiritual consciousness was severely restricted.After going hundreds of meters deep, his consciousness was only half a mile away.

He had to be more careful.

I don't know how deep this stone cave is, not only is it slanting downward, but the cave is getting bigger and bigger.

After going deeper for hundreds of meters, the tunnel has expanded from less than one foot in diameter to two feet in diameter.Moreover, the diameter continues to increase as it goes deeper.

It gives people the feeling that this extremely deep cave is like a huge snake, winding under the Mang Mountain.

The densely packed ancient stone symbols on the cave wall seem to be the scale pattern of a giant snake.

The hole is the tail of the snake, the thinnest.Then it gradually became thicker, and now it is estimated that it has reached the waist of a snake.

So, is the location of the snake head the end of the hole?

Luo Ning went further half a mile, and it was three miles away from the entrance of the cave. Suddenly, he found more than a dozen corpses under the cave wall in front of him.

These bones exude a decaying breath, the human body tissues are all rotten, but the clothes and things they carry are still intact.

The corpses were all Japanese military uniforms.What remains is also the infantry equipment of the Japanese army.

It has been dead for more than a hundred years.

Luo Ning swept his consciousness, but he didn't see the cause of their death.

In such a deep place, if there is no consciousness, there must be powerful lighting equipment.Otherwise, it can only be blocked by darkness, and nothing can be seen with the naked eye.

With the sound of "click", Luo Ning stepped on several Japanese army skulls and decayed rifles, and continued to walk forward without any intention of stopping.

Half a mile deeper, and then found the bones.

Looking at the facial bones, it is a white western.It seems to be the colonists who came here to explore in the late Qing Dynasty.

Slowly, more and more bones were found.There are Xia people's bones, and there are also Western people's bones.

Some died for hundreds of years.The most recent ones are over 100 years old.

With so many bones, even if Luo Ning and He Jing got here smoothly, they would have died, right?

Luo Ning searched among the bones, but did not find that Luo Ning's bones, but found some robots.

In addition to robots, there are also drones.All of the equipment was decades ago, all rusted and scrapped.

These robots and drones must have been equipment used by government research departments to detect Cuiyun Cave decades ago.

In view of the strange danger of Cuiyun Cave, scientific researchers dare not enter, and can only use robots and drones through technological means.

However, the strange thing is that all the drones and robots, when they arrived in this cave, all failed and were scrapped. Not only could they not continue to go deep, they could not return.

Luo Ning also found the bones of some police dogs.The reason why it is known to be a police dog is that there are police dog tags and miniature camera equipment on the neck of the skeleton.

Apparently, police dogs were sent to investigate back then.

Unfortunately, like robots and drones, the police dogs died in this cave and could not go back at all.

A skeleton wearing a special warfare police uniform, leaning against the stone wall, with a notebook in his hand, keeping a record posture.

Luo Ning swept his consciousness, but saw that the handwriting on the note was very scribbled, and it read:

"Report: I feel very weak, dying, like painless suffocation, life is passing without knowing it."

"All communication devices are unavailable. This is a restricted area for life. I seem to see another world."

The handwriting ends here, which means that he died after writing here.

"Painless suffocation? Life goes by unknowingly." Luo Ning thought to himself, "Is this the cause of everyone's death?"

"I have nothing at all, is it because I am a monk?"

Luo Ning is a monk and has a life-saving magic weapon. Of course, he is fearless and continues to go deeper.

At that time, the relevant departments organized the exploration of Cuiyun Cave many times, and the most advanced high-tech equipment was used for this purpose.

However, in the end, people died and the equipment was scrapped, resulting in a series of major loss accidents, but nothing was gained.

Therefore, the superior stopped all exploration activities on Cuiyun Cave.

Today, the Xia Kingdom is already the most powerful country in the world. It has already landed on the moon and explored other planets technologically.

The lunar tourism project has become an ordinary project.

However, with Xia Guo's powerful scientific and technological capabilities, he was still unable to study the secrets deep in Mang Mountain.

Mangshan has a supernatural mysterious power that makes technology helpless.

Luo Ning's consciousness scanned the bones, but he never found the bones of Luo Ning and He Jing.

Could it be that the two of them really entered the depths?
The two have the same weird nightmare, does it mean that both of them can be exempted from death here?Does it mean that the two of them can come here safely?
Luo Ning walked through the death cave domain where the bones were scattered, and went deeper again.

Half a mile later, another corpse appeared in front of him.

It was a corpse, not a skeleton.Because it hasn't rotted yet.

The dead man was wearing Taoist robes, with floating dust in his left hand and a talisman in his right hand.

Obviously a priest.

Time of death, at least... 70 years.

But after 70 years, the corpse has not rotted, and it has become the only corpse with a good body seen in the cave so far.

This shows that this Taoist priest had some skills during his lifetime.Not only can it enter the deepest place, but it can also maintain its physical body.

His eyes were piercing and hopeless, his face was very old, and he was estimated to be at least ninety years old when he died.

But Luo Ning took a closer look and found that the Taoist priest's bone age was at most 50 years old before his death, and he was definitely not 90 years old.

But his physical body is extremely old.

It was as if, before his death, he went through a rapid aging process, consuming all his life energy in a very short period of time.

Could this be the cause of their death?
Luo Ning was terrified, as if seeing the people who came to this cave suddenly become goose-skinned and gray-haired, and then die of old age, as if there was no painful suffocation.

Can the mysterious existence here devour the lifespan of outsiders?
Not only human beings, but also the longevity of machines, will they also devour them?
Thinking of devouring the robot's lifespan, Luo Ning couldn't help but feel a little ridiculous.

He knelt down and found a Rolex watch on the Taoist corpse.

The serial number on this watch starts with the letter G, indicating that the production date is around 2010, more than 70 years ago.

With the quality of Rolex, although the watches of more than 70 years are inaccurate, the hands must still move.

But Luo Ning twisted the spring and found that it was completely broken.

The whole watch looks almost 200 years old, like an antique.But it has only been out of the factory for more than 70 years.

Could it be that the longevity of the watch was swallowed by some kind of force?

But Luo Ning himself didn't feel any discomfort.

It means that at least for now, he is not in danger.

At this moment, the diameter of the tunnel here has expanded to four feet, and the space has a hint of grandeur.

Luo Ning put the watch on the Taoist priest's wrist again, and was about to get up, when he suddenly heard the sound of drums, bells, and silk and bamboo orchestras coming from deep in the cave.

That's right, it is indeed the sound of an instrument, not an illusion.After debating carefully, there is also the sound of horse howling.

At the same time, the ancient and strange stone carvings on the stone wall suddenly emitted Dao rhyme, and the whole space seemed empty.

Surprised, Luo Ning jumped into a crevice in the stone wall with a flash of his body.

Immediately afterwards, a high-level invisibility talisman was sacrificed, and it remained silent.

Even he, a rank five cultivator, felt nervous at this moment.

The sound of the musical instruments became louder and louder, and the sound of the horn seemed to come from the ground, and a gray and strange atmosphere rose from the depths of the cave, like a fog in the night.

Listening to the sound of musical instruments playing in unison, Luo Ning smelled a strange aroma.I don't know what this fragrance is, it makes Luo Ning's whole mind float.

Immediately afterwards, the brigade of troops poured out from the depths of the cave.In the billowing mist, there was the sound of rumbling horseshoes.

Black and white flags and streamers emerged in the mist.

With such momentum, at first glance it looks like a funeral procession for an emperor.

But on the black and white flags, there are hexagrams.Every hexagram is constantly changing, sometimes Qian hexagram, sometimes Kun hexagram, sometimes Li hexagram...

The horses and knights were all indistinct, and I couldn't see the details clearly. I just felt that there were so many people and so many horses. It was like a torrent in the depths of hell, rolling out, and the momentum was terrifying!
If Luo Ning was an ordinary person, he would have died by now, or would have died of fright.

An old Mangshan ghost rumor came to mind: "The emperor is not the emperor, the king is not the king, ride thousands of rides to Beimang!"

Among the thousands of horses and the hexagram symbols and banners, Luo Ning saw two huge coffins, and the eight kinds of hexagram symbols were also engraved on the coffins.

A coffin was carried, and the coffin was carried by a giant tortoise.Another coffin was pulled by a leading horse.

When Luo Ning saw the giant tortoise and the dragon-headed horse, he immediately thought of the "dragon-horse tortoise", and then thought of Hetu and Luoshu related to the dragon-horse and the tortoise!
Could it be that the coffin is not the corpse of the emperor, but Hetu Luoshu?
If this is the case, isn't it just "the emperor is not the emperor, the king is not the king"?
Although Luo Ning speculated like this, he would not foolishly open the coffins in the strange team to see if there was a Hetu Luoshu.

Because the scene in front of me is just the intersection of time and space left over from the ancient times, it is the remnant of the events of the past, it is just history, not reality.

This scene of "the emperor is not an emperor, and the king is not a king, riding thousands of horses to Beimang" is a shadow of history.

Everything in front of me is not an illusion, but real.It is just two time and space, so it can only be perceived, but cannot be touched.

Unless Luo Ning has the supernatural power of reversing time and space, it is impossible to enter this shadow of history and discover the secrets in the coffin by turning the emptiness into reality.

In a blink of an eye, thousands of horses and horses, wrapped in dragons, horses, tortoises and two coffins, rushed past, disappeared before their eyes, and disappeared into the depths of historical time and space.

"As expected of the legendary Mangshan Daoist Market." Luo Ning couldn't help but sigh, "This should be the perfect Daoist place between heaven and earth. No wonder the three religions, Taoism, Buddhism, and Confucianism, all carry forward more than this."

This place is the gate where time and space meet, which is truly unique.

Because of this, even if a trace of time-space intersecting power leaks out, it can instantly take away vitality and longevity.

The lifespans of those explorers and robots were not swallowed by some monster, but by the space-time gap here.

The reason why Luo Ning is fine is because he is a monk and has a powerful life-saving magic weapon, which resists the rapid aging of life span and avoids dying of old age in a short period of time.

This cannot be resisted by technological means.So this place is a restricted area of ​​life for ordinary people.

As long as there is no cultivation base, anyone who enters will die of old age in a blink of an eye.The same is true for the service life of the machine.

Luo Ning continued to go down and walked for more than ten miles, as if going straight into the nether world.

The tunnel is so big that it is no bigger than the stadium!

It turned out to be a bottomless huge underground space!
Many ancient stone men and stone beasts stood quietly, lonely forever.

The Dao pattern on the stone wall, the stone bench under the stone platform...all indicate that there was an underground dojo deep in the earth back then.

It was silent.

Luo Ning's consciousness could not reach the end at all. Although this place is vast and vast, it is not the end.

Luo Ning swept his consciousness and saw two small wine bottles on a stone platform.

These are two bottles of fruit wine, the production date is 2034, which is the year when Luo Ning and He Jing entered Cuiyun Cave.

The two wine bottles should have been left behind by the two of them.

In addition to the wine bottle, there are a few cigarette butts, a few fruit cores, and chocolate boxes.

It seems that the two have rested their feet here.

They can go deep here without dying, which means that it must be related to their nightmare.

They must be special too.

Luo Ning inspected as he walked, and found that there was nothing but ancient dojos.

It must have been very prosperous back then, but with the exhaustion of Blue Star's aura, these dojos were also abandoned.

Not long after, a step suddenly appeared in front of him, almost ninety degrees downward!

Luo Ning was too lazy to walk up the steps, and as soon as he let his body fall, he fell like a big bird, like falling into a deep cliff!
"Immortal..." Before Luo Ning fell to the bottom, he heard the sound of water.

The sound of the water is as loud as a river.

Luo Ning's consciousness swept away, and he couldn't help being a little surprised.

I saw a big river running in the unknown underground space!
This underground underground river is half a mile wide, the water is huge, and it is several feet deep, like a giant dragon hidden in the ground.

"Unexpectedly, there is such a big river ten miles deep under Mang Mountain!"

While sighing, Luo Ning straightened his body and stood on the river.

He looked upstream and couldn't help being stunned again.

I saw two huge stone gates, like two stone dams, quietly standing on both sides of the dark river.

There are two huge stone gates, one hundred and one black, more than three feet high, and the momentum is terrifying!

A tall, earless man was impressively painted on the two doors.

Although they are all earless people, the ones on the white gate are men.Above the black gate, there is a painting of a woman.

The torrential river flows between the two stone gates.

"Did they really enter the black and white stone gate?"

With a flash, Luo Ning came under the huge white door, and suddenly saw a line of words engraved under the door:

"We don't know what's inside the door. But we can only go in and try."

Judging by the handwriting, it was exactly that of Luo Ning.

Under the black gate, there was also a line of characters engraved, but it was He Jing's handwriting.

This shows that the two people really went in more than 50 years ago.

That Luo Ning entered the white door, and He Jing entered the black door.

"What's so weird?" Luo Ning cautiously approached the white door.

But when the distance reached three feet, an invisible force suddenly blocked his steps.

In any case, it is difficult to move forward!
"I was banned from entering?" Luo Ning immediately understood.

Shimen won't let him in!
Perhaps, only that Luo Ning and He Jing could enter?

Although Luo Ning was a little unwilling, he could only stop.

He unleashed his divine sense and carefully observed the two stone gates. The more he looked at them, the more strange they became, and the hairs all over his body stood on end.

"Is this the gate of yin and yang? The gate of hell?"

Luo Ning looked at it for a long time, but didn't see any tricks.

The boy shook his head and had no choice but to withdraw his consciousness.

It seems that whatever happens after Shimen has nothing to do with him.

Even if you can enter, it may not be a good thing.

At least, that Luo Ning and He Jing never came out again.

Luo Ning could only sweep his consciousness to the bottom of the river.

He probed into the bottom of the river with his spiritual sense, and saw a black thing at the bottom of the river, its shape was relatively regular, it could not be a stone at the bottom of the river.

But the strange thing is that the river water can erode his consciousness, and his consciousness can't see things at the bottom of the river clearly.

I can only guess that that thing is not a stone.

"What?" Luo Ning couldn't help but feel his heart skip a beat.

He hated the feeling of coming home empty-handed.

Without much hesitation, Luo Ning jumped into the river and approached that thing.

The river was extremely cold, colder than ice, but it didn't freeze.

Luo Ning used a diving technique and went straight to the bottom of the five-foot-deep water, only then did he get a clear view of the underwater scene.

When he saw the thing at the bottom of the water clearly, he almost choked on water!

PS: What is the bottom of the water?Good night!
