Secret Notes of a Mystery Investigator

Chapter 155 Changbai Mountain Ghost King Tomb (9)
9. Elder Long Sword

Not long after I walked, I saw a huge cave on a winding mountain road, and at the entrance of the cave stood two majestic Celestial warriors, I said: "It seems that you really have a lot of people here?"
Long Lin said: This can be regarded as the fortress of the Sky Spirit Clan, of course there will be heavy guards.

As soon as we got to the foot of the mountain, we heard the people above say in a sarcasm: Old dragon head, before I saw you get the money back, someone hanged one up first. You are really ashamed of your long knives, but it’s no wonder, It is common for you to be ashamed.

Long Lin's face became more and more gloomy, but he didn't speak. We went all the way up, and when we reached the entrance of the cave, I saw those two people stopped at the entrance of the cave, glanced at me, and said with a smile: "Why, there are not enough people to bring a baby back?"

Long Lin pulled out the knife and pressed it against his neck, pushing him all the way to the stone wall. Another person picked up the big ax from the side and suddenly the silver light flashed. The young man behind Long Lin drew his knife and stabbed him in the face. I don't know why it happened, so the four of them fought together, and they used their practical actions to give the best interpretation of the three words "disunity".

Longlin said: You can insult me, but you must not insult the elder with the long knife.

As soon as the person who said the bad words heard the word "elder", his expression changed immediately, and he said: "Don't talk about such things.

Long Lin withdrew his long knife and said to the two of them, "Stop it, the elder is standing in front of us."

The two stopped immediately, and the two warriors with the big ax looked at me suspiciously and said, "This is your elder?"
Long Lin said seriously: "This is the descendant of Elder He, the elder of the Changdao Clan as a matter of course.

No one asked me for identity proof, no one had the slightest doubt about me, just based on Long Lin's words, the two immediately put down their weapons, respectfully stood with hands down and said: Ma Sanhe and You Feng have seen Elder He.I was a little helpless, I didn't know what to do, Longlin ignored them and pulled me to go inside.

The space inside the cave is very large. The ground and the roof of the cave have been smoothed, and there are all kinds of household items such as sofas. However, there are no electrical appliances. I don’t know what objects are hung on the surrounding walls, which form a triangle shape and faintly reveal blue light. , although a single light body is not strong, but a group of factions together, the inside of the cave is clearly illuminated. At this time, there are more than a dozen Tianling warriors gathered around the living room, playing cards, or bragging. When they saw me walking in, they immediately got up Standing in a row, what happened to me on this day was unexpected, and I became a leader out of nowhere.

Not knowing what to say, Longlin whispered to me: I will take you to my room.

The so-called rooms here are small holes dug out of the cave wall, and then a door is added, but the decoration inside is really unambiguous, the cabinet and bed are all available, and on the bed is my blood curse knife, the dragon scale is To go out, I said: Brother Long, you said I was an elder, did they believe me easily?

Longlin said: "No one in the Tianling clan dares to question the elders. This is the ancestral rule and no one dares to violate it, but since ancient times, no one has dared to pretend to be an elder of the Tianling clan. Since we recognize you, others will naturally not say more what.

I said: This is what you insist on recognizing me, I don't want to be this elder.

Long Lin said seriously: "Elder, please pay attention to every word you say in the future. The elders of the Heavenly Spirit Clan are the most glorious human beings in the world. You must never say such things in the future."

I said helplessly: You are rushing ducks to the shelves, and sooner or later you will regret it.

Longlin said: No one in the Tianling clan dares to question the elders, we will only be proud of the elders.

I sighed and shook my hand and said: You go out first, I want to rest for a while.

After Longlin left, I took out the Blood Curse Knife and observed it carefully. I saw a delicate mountain pattern engraved on the gleaming silver knife. Every tree was so detailed that there was even a tree Crooked neck poplar, this kind of details makes people feel a bit redundant, there is nothing special about it, not even a blade, but the weight is much heavier than a metal object of the same volume, there is no other other.

At least now, this famous murder weapon looks like an out-and-out commodity. I even wondered if it was dropped by the head of the group. After wrapping the knife, I opened the door and was about to go out, only to see those playing in the cave happily The Tianling warriors immediately stood up again, and stood respectfully in a row, but their respectful demeanor made me furious, and I went back to the room after closing the door.

This kind of respect is a kind of torture for anyone, because I really don't feel that I need such respect from others, and even feel that they are running on me in this way, which makes me feel embarrassed.

Sitting on the bed, I suddenly felt a violent shaking. I stood up vigilantly and found myself standing on the back of a huge creature. Except for the human warriors in heavy armor all around me, this is a strange creature. It is similar to a crocodile, but there are three-way barbs on the middle of the back and both sides of the back and belly, forming a natural barrier. Human warriors shoot huge bows and arrows at the ant-like tauren at the feet of the giant beast through the gaps in the barbs like a deck. , those giant tauren with blood-red eyes were either shot by huge bows and arrows, or were crushed flat by the feet of giant beasts, their tails swept around, unable to resist at all, and the originally blood-red sky turned gray at this time One piece, like the weather at dawn.

Is the human army entering the counterattack stage?I felt a little strange, because the horrors of the battle scenes I had seen before were not the same, but the bloody killings on the ancient battlefields were far more intense than the sensory stimulation brought by modern wars. There was a great sense of oppression.

Not long after, a huge horn sounded suddenly. I followed the sound, and saw a golden light flashing in the gray sky in the east, followed by an earth-shattering animal roar, and then a scene that left me stunned appeared. Now, a five-clawed golden dragon with golden lin and yellow beard burst out of the air. She had a long beard on her mouth and looked extremely mighty. Then she shook her body and roared to the ground. It is clear that the growth of the golden dragon's body is unimaginable, and the Manjiao that flooded the ancient battlefield lay on the ground with all four limbs motionless as if they saw their master.

When the golden dragon landed, the whole earth was shaken, it was like an earthquake, and the dazzling golden light released from her body made me unable to look directly at it. The tauren who were fleeing in all directions seemed to be seeing a plague god. They ran around desperately, and some jumped directly from the broken cliff.

The golden dragon stood majestically on the barren land and raised its neck, but it didn't mean to chase the enemy. There is no difference in appearance, so I was only shocked, but I didn't feel surprised. Secondly, although she came to the battlefield, it didn't seem to play a decisive role in the whole battle situation, because just chasing and killing these remnants and defeated generals, even a dragon would be afraid. Can't do it either.

Just when I was wondering, suddenly thousands of golden lights began to shine in the gray sky, and then as long as the golden light projected by the light swam in the sky, one golden dragon after another broke through the air, shaking their bodies and coming towards the ground. I was dumbfounded by this spectacular sight, and I finally understood what role dragons played in this holy war concerning the destiny of mankind.

Golden dragons stepped into the ground, and the barren hills on the ground were even collapsed. Just as I was about to see how these dragons would deal with the tauren warriors on the ground, suddenly a stern cold wind whizzed across the ground , the warriors on the Man Jiao all looked solemnly at the rows of five-clawed golden dragons standing neatly. Although the cold wind blew them up and down, and some people even fell from Man Jiao's body, it seemed that no one paid attention to this formation. The weird wind shows any maladaptation.

The tauren who had been fleeing in all directions also stopped, and began to gather on the opposite side of the human battle formation, seeming to have the courage to fight again. This sudden change is very strange. With such a disadvantage and the addition of dragons, why should they fight together? As for the battle, I haven't figured out the truth yet, and suddenly my head feels cold, as if it's raining.

I subconsciously touched the water droplets on my head with my hand, but felt that the water droplets seemed a little sticky, but they turned out to be bright red. Could it be blood?I put it under my nose and smelled it, and sure enough, thunder billowed in the sky, and then a blood-red lightning pierced the sky, and then bright red blood poured down from the sky like a torrential rain.

The armors of the soldiers were soon stained red, and Manjiao kept licking the blood pooled on his body and in front of him, seeming to enjoy this liquid very much, and the world was immediately filled with a strong bloody smell. I couldn't help but have an ominous premonition. All the lives in the blood rain seemed to have a tacit understanding and generally didn't make a sound. Could this be the tranquility before another big war?
Then the blood rain became bigger and bigger, and the cracks in the ground suddenly burst into flames, and then the flames rose into the air and immediately covered all the cracks. In the huge firelight, I suddenly saw a huge blood-red hands grabbing the broken rock, and the long and narrow black fingers dunked into the mountain like a javelin, and then a large amount of gravel sprayed out, and a pair of huge horns slowly stretched out from the fault. It came out, followed by a pair of huge blood-red eyes. This terrifying scene appeared in my eyes without any warning. I was so frightened that I turned over and fell off Man Jiao's back.

When I woke up again, I found myself lying on the bed, and I didn’t know how long I had slept. The dream just now was vivid in my mind. I carefully recalled the dreams about jihad that I had these days. It seemed that there was no connection, but I Why do these weird dreams happen?
I couldn't figure out the reason behind it, but I didn't see the whole picture of the horrible creature that was about to appear in the end, so what was it?Just judging from its volume, it is very huge, and its appearance is also extremely fierce. If there is such a thing as Pain Blood Origin, it will definitely be a disaster for human beings.

But I also know that I will definitely not know what it is, and it is impossible to figure out why the yin and yang scholar wants me to know these events that only exist in memory. .

When I opened the door, I saw that the dining room was full of aromas. The big table was filled with food and wine, and the soldiers of the Tianling tribe stood on both sides, looking at me silently. I was so uncomfortable that I almost couldn't even walk. He walked to the dining table stiffly and said: You are welcome, everyone, eat when it is time to eat.

Long Lin came to me and began to introduce everyone. There are 23 Tianling warriors in the cave, belonging to the long sword and the big axe. Only these two tribes will be sent to Changbai Mountain to guard the treasure. After the introduction, everyone They all sat down, but no one dared to move their chopsticks. Everyone lowered their heads like a student who had made a mistake and kept silent. I first picked up the chopsticks and said: "You are welcome, everyone move your chopsticks. I will respect you first." Everyone a cup.

After I finished speaking, I picked up the wine glass, and most of the people picked up the wine glass, but three or four people were still motionless. I thought they were being polite, so I said, "Drink, everyone, you're welcome."

I saw a tall and thick man holding a wine glass and slamming it on the table, the wine spilled all over the table, Longlin's expression darkened and he said: "Ma San, what do you mean?"
Ma Sandao: What the hell do you mean by me?Don't think it's a big deal to find the elders, God knows if it's true or not.

The faces of all the long knife clan members changed, and Longlin said word by word: If you have the guts, say it again.

Ma San snorted coldly and said: "If you say it a hundred times, it will work. I think this Elder He really... Before he finished speaking, Long Lin stretched out his hand and slapped him in the face. This time the blow was extremely heavy. Ma San Five clear fingerprints immediately appeared on the thick-skinned, unshaven face, and even his mouth was swollen.

Ma San got angry and reached out to pick up the silver ax behind him, and the people on his left and right immediately embraced him lazily and said: "San'er, don't be silly, kid."

Ma San's face turned blue and the bull roared: "Let me go, let me fight with him. This time I lost the face of the Big Axe family. Don't you think it's ugly?"
Longlin stared at him, and said in a calm tone: Saner, today we elders met for the first time, and you uttered disrespectful words. I slapped you in the face to teach you the way of being a human being. People in the Tianling clan must be distinguished by their superiority and inferiority. , this point may be just a kind of moral guard for the world, but in the Sky Spirit Race, you can kill your head, understand?
As soon as this sentence was said, Ma San stopped his hands and feet, slowly put down the big ax in his hand, touched his face and said nothing, Long Lin glanced at the big ax warriors one by one and said: "If you think what I said is meaningful Reasonable, then please drink this glass of wine, after all, this is our elder who personally respected everyone.

I watched everyone drink up the wine in the bowl, and I felt very unhappy, but I still drank the wine in one gulp. After that, I didn't know what to say. I put down the glass and looked at the top of the cave in a daze. Longlin coughed dryly, He whispered to me, "If you don't move your chopsticks, no one dares to eat."

I picked up the chopsticks and took a mouthful of food and put it into the bowl in front of me, but none of the Celestial warriors on the table moved their chopsticks. The scene was awkward for a while, and Long Lin seemed to want to talk to me, so I threw the chopsticks in front of me and said: I'm full and I'm going to bed first.

After all, he ignored him, left the dining table and went to his own room, just as he was about to close the door, Longlin walked in and said: There is no need to know them as well, these people are just like that, and you just took office, it is impossible to gain their respect immediately.

I said: This is not important to me, even this damned long-sword clan elder is not what I want.

Longlin smiled and said: Can't bear this little grievance?
I said, "Brother Long, it's not that I'm small-minded and can't put things down, but I never thought about being an elder, let alone leading the soldiers of the Tianling clan. You forced it on me inexplicably today."

Longlin said: "I didn't force it on you, because you are the elder of the long-sword clan who is just like a fake."

I said: "It doesn't make sense for you to believe it so easily, Brother Long, what kind of thing do you want to use me for, why don't you just tell me, if you can help me, I will help."

Long Lin said with a surprised expression: You are thinking too much. The Blood Curse Knife is a sacred object of the Sky Spirit Clan. A god-man cannot be faked, so what kind of proof is needed?

I sighed and said: Let me be your elder, the long knife clan will regret it sooner or later.

Long Lin said with a solemn expression: You don't understand what an elder means to a Celestial Spirit group. Even if you don't want us to accompany you to die, no one will say no, we are here for you Live and die for you, but die without complaint.

I was not moved at all, and waved my hands a little irritably: Forget it, let's not talk about it, because I can't explain it anyway.

Longlin said: You will get used to it in a few days.After saying that, he backed out.

I was lying on the bed, but I couldn’t fall asleep for a long time. It was estimated that it was midnight. I got up and opened the door. I saw two long-sword warriors sitting on the sofa. When they saw me, they stood up immediately. I said, “It’s okay, I can’t sleep. ,It might work?

The two looked at each other inexplicably and said: No one can refuse the elder's request.

When I heard this kind of words, I felt chills all over my body, and hurried out, but seeing the two of them followed out, I turned around and asked: Are you spying on me?
One of them said: I dare not, but we must ensure the safety of the elders.

I said: If you want to follow, just follow?
This night I felt that the weather was very cold, and I was freezing all over without taking two steps, but I didn’t bother to go back and put on clothes again. I walked forward for about four or fifty meters, only to find that I was wearing slippers, and two My feet turned red from the cold in the snow, but I didn't feel any discomfort. I simply took off my shoes and walked barefoot in the snow. After a while, the soles of my feet became hotter and hotter, and the places I stepped on were covered with snow. It will melt immediately, and my heart is getting more and more strange. At this moment, a burst of groans came over. I thought I had encountered a lost tourist. I followed the sound and looked for it. Clothed people lay motionless in the snow, only a strong young man moaned slightly while clutching his chest, and the snow was covered with red blood, which had already frozen.
