Secret Notes of a Mystery Investigator

Chapter 53 The Descendants of the Dragon Clan (15)
Yan Gongdao: "What you say is true. I said it was just to bluff them. Now I guess they don't believe it. It's too stupid for you to say it!"

Head Li ignored him. He looked at us and said, "What Yan Gong said before was not a lie. The theory of stabbing the dragon is not something a normal person can come up with. I can tell you clearly that Yan Gong is using a real To find a high-sounding excuse for his personal desires, you will naturally think this is a joke after hearing about the Dragon Tomb and Emperor Wudi's thorn dragon, but I can tell everyone that it is true."

Head Chen said: "We already know this, and we don't doubt the authenticity of the stabbing dragon. Although we all think that Emperor Wu of Han's idea is too crazy, it is understandable."

Head Li unconsciously turned to Head Chen and said, "You really think so?"

Head Chen said: "That's right, if I were Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, I would make the same choice."

Captain Li nodded and said: "This matter is related to the fate of the country, and we must not take it lightly. If there is a lucky thing in the barbarian land, I would be willing to punish it at the risk of punishment. This is an order dictated to me by the emperor, and I have not forgotten a single word so far." But I didn’t see a real dragon when I came here. I only saw this mausoleum, which seemed to be formed naturally, not carved. Staying here is just fulfilling the emperor's entrustment, and now there are people who are trying to destroy my big man Longting in the name of science, and the people who do it are actually big man's people, are you really crazy?"

Yan Gong said: "You are crazy. Who can believe your idiot's excuses? You are obviously just an ordinary soldier. Do you think you can scare us scientists by putting on such a pose?"

Captain Li said: "Oh, do you really think I'm just an ordinary officer? Well, I'll prove it to you."

After finishing speaking, he said to He Zhuang, "Little brother, let me borrow your knife."

He Zhuang said: "I can't let go of my knife."

Captain Li said: "Okay, then please do something, but don't be afraid." After speaking, he gestured to his own neck.

He Zhuang took out a dagger from his pocket, threw it to him and said, "My knife can't be stained with blood, you can do it yourself."

Captain Li took the dagger without the slightest hesitation, and immediately cut a cut on his neck, and saw blood gushing out from his wound, but what was strange was that the blood did not flow to the ground, but gradually formed the shape of a person.

This "bloody rebirth" life form gradually took on a new shape under our dumbfounded gaze.However, there is no human skin, just a body "drenched in blood", and "Tuan Zhang" in the armor immediately disappeared.

The blood man said in a strange voice: "My body has long since ceased to exist, but my blood can be passed on through other people's bodies. The Loulan royal family has been looking for me for nearly a thousand years, but they didn't expect that I would live in this way. world."

Head Chen said: "It's useless to find you, didn't they all die at your hands?"

Blood Humanity said: "It wasn't me who killed them, it was themselves. These people are people who survived with the help of the special environment here, but in the stormy weather they chased and killed us far away, of course they couldn't live, unfortunately I know this Secret, and they don't know it themselves."

He Zhuang said: "As far as I know, anyone who wants to kill a dragon is cursed. Your soul should have been incomplete long ago."

The blood man laughed loudly, his voice seemed to be full of sorrow, and he said: "Not only the soul, but also life, body and even descendants are cursed. Later, I simply used the bodies of my descendants to survive, and they all died violently anyway." , I paid such a high price just to protect the dragon veins of the Celestial Dynasty, but you actually came here to dig them out. No matter what your purpose is, Mr. Yan, the dragon veins must not be destroyed."

Yan Gong said: "You are just a murderer, it's not your turn to speak about this matter."

Blood Human said: "Okay, if this is the case, we will all die together."

Yan Gongdao: "I'm not afraid of death. If I can't use my decades of scientific research efforts here, what's the difference between me and death? You can kill me. Unless I die, I won't be reconciled."

Blood Human said: "Not only you, but all of us will die here. The dragon's veins must not be broken, otherwise the Celestial Dynasty will be in great trouble. For the sake of the foundation of the Celestial Dynasty, we should also smile when we bury our bones here today."

After all, I don't know what mechanism he moved, and suddenly the mercury in the pool began to spurt out rapidly. Although the space here is large, the floor was immediately flooded with mercury.

Our faces all changed drastically, Academician Qi said: "Climb up the rope quickly."

The blood man smiled and said, "The entrance has been closed long ago, where are you going?"

After saying that, he suddenly got into Duke Yan's body, and got out again with a whoosh. Before Duke Yan could scream, he fell to the ground.

We looked at each other, not knowing what to do, and the mercury quickly climbed several steps.Even if the rope is still there, we will be flooded with mercury when we get off the tower.At the critical moment, the blood man said to He Zhuang, "I am familiar with your knife."

Although He Zhuang's face turned blue, his voice didn't change much: "You should know who I am."

The blood man nodded and said, "That's right, maybe you shouldn't die."

He Zhuang said: "What about my companions, they shouldn't die either."

Blood Human said: "Humans are greedy, I don't trust them."

He Zhuang said: "You should trust them, they all know this secret."

Blood humanity said: "Oh, what you said is true? Then tell me, what is going on?"

The blood man asked the head Chen, and the head Chen glanced at us and hesitated to speak, He Zhuang said: "Leader, let's talk about it, if we still hide this point, everyone will die."

Head Chen sighed and said: "Luo Zi, Xiao Ma, I didn't want to involve you, but let's solve the problem at hand. Zhuangzi is the guard of the Dragon Clan. You have always been curious about his identity. Now I can tell you gone."

I said: "This is a good thing, why should I hide it?"

He Zhuang said: "I don't have time to discuss this in detail now, general, if possible, would you let us go?"

The blood man nodded and said: "Okay, since this is the case, I have no reason to stop you, after all, everyone is doing the same thing."

Speaking of this, he pulled his armor away, and a passage appeared there. The blood man said: "There will be Qiuyin guards at the end. If you are really a dragon guard, you should know how to pass through there."

He Zhuang said: "Then you..."

The blood man looked at the huge underground palace and said: "I came here for the great entrustment of the emperor. Guarding this place is my only task. I will not leave no matter what. Don't delay, or you won't be able to leave. And that hand The sword is hidden in the mural, and the eagle is actually a key. After being inserted into the snake's eye, the secret passage will be locked forever and will never be opened again. I let you go because I hope you can lock the entrance of the underground palace, so you go quickly."

While speaking, the mercury had completely submerged the tower, and the surrounding white objects were engulfing us. We didn't dare to delay, and immediately got into the tunnel, and then with a snap, the flying general sealed the lid shut.

We were still in shock, and Academician Qi sat on the steps panting for a long time before he said, "Xiao Chen, what do you mean by what you just said, why did he let us go as soon as he heard it?"

Head Chen said: "He Zhuang's sword is a sacred object of the Tianling clan, of course he knows it. But the dragon is extraordinary, and ordinary people who know this secret will surely die. Why have we been reluctant to tell this matter? That's why."

After hearing this sentence, we were dumbfounded. After a long time, Ma Tianxing said: "We will die inexplicably for this inexplicable reason. No matter how I hear it, I think it is a story."

Head Chen said: "This is not a story, it's true. I saved He Zhuang by accident at the time, and he was only one step away from death. I came across this secret, not just heard it. Dragons originally existed in the world, why the world doesn't know, that's because the guardians all have the power to reach the sky, ordinary people who know this secret have only one fate, they are killed by them."

Speaking of this, we involuntarily glanced at He Zhuang, and head Chen said: "Don't worry too much, the dragon guards who are in charge of silence are not He Zhuang, they are another group of people. It is not an exaggeration to say that they have With the power to penetrate the heavens and the earth, no one in the world who knows the existence of the real dragon can escape their eyes and ears, and it is even more impossible to escape their chasing and killing, so the violent death refers to this."

I sighed and said, "So we are dead?"

Head Chen said: "That's not necessarily the case, but today there is really no other way, I can only do this, the reason why he let us go, one is to see He Zhuang's face, and the other is that he is sure that we will not tell what happened here Because he is not worried, anyway, people who know about this matter can only end up dead in the end."

Academician Qi said: "I don't believe it, this is really ridiculous."

Head Chen said: "Academician Qi, it's up to you not to believe this, but I suggest that you better not tell others about it lightly, they will not spare the lives of ordinary people. In order to keep this oldest secret, they will do whatever it takes The price, no matter how many people, even women and children, they will not let go. If you don’t believe it, you can give it a try.”

Academician Qi panted, "I really don't know whether I am crazy or the world is crazy, so what should we do, wait to die?"

Head Chen said: "To be honest, I haven't thought of a countermeasure yet."

17. Bloody Curse

7000 years ago, human civilization appeared on the earth, and these highly intelligent creatures began to gradually show their talents and have the momentum to dominate the earth.The evil devil first noticed this, and sent messengers to seduce the shameless people among the human beings, and they promised to use these people's superhuman ability to defeat their opponents and plunder what they wanted.As a condition of cooperation, these people must share everything on the earth with the devil.

After fighting with blood and tears, the righteous people became more and more difficult to fight because of the disparity in power, and the breath of death filled the once green and bright place.However, years of war and bloodshed finally angered the gods. Unaware of the truth, he was very angry that the human beings he created started killing each other, so he asked his son Prince Long to lead the God of War to exterminate human beings.

But when the kind-hearted Dragon Prince and Wuhua God of War came to the ground and saw those suffering human beings, the Dragon Prince did not have the heart to slaughter these poor lives, but risked disobeying his father's order to lead humans to fight back against the devil and them. of mercenaries.

The devil discovered that the Dragon Prince had descended to earth, but the already powerful Demon Legion naturally would not easily hand over the occupied land and the souls of countless ugly humans.However, Prince Long and Wuhua God of War are invincible, neither humans nor ghosts can resist.The devils who were cornered took risks. They found the most righteous man in the world and the only close servant of Prince Long among the human beings—a scholar who taught human culture. The devil succeeded in capturing his soul while he was off guard.The Dragon Prince didn't realize that his most loyal servant had lost his soul. On a rainy night, the scholar stabbed the knife given to him by the devil into the Dragon Prince's body, because only this knife could make the dragon's body bleed , and the heavy rain washed away the dragon's blood in an instant.

The Dragon Prince who lost his blood also immediately lost his life, but when he was dying, he did not know the truth and left the last sentence to the dragon of the same race: Never help humans.Only Wuhua God of War knows the truth of the matter, but everything is irreparable. Human beings who have lost their last shelter are gradually in danger of being destroyed under the pursuit of gods, devils, and the same kind.Finally, Wuhua God of War finally found Longtan. On the condition of training the guards, he exchanged the last human fire to enter Longtan, retaining a glimmer of hope.

However, the dragons who were wrongly guided by the Dragon Prince did not trust humans, so the remaining people were divided into three categories, namely Wei, Wen, and Xun.And only the purest information is the real personal guard of Shenlong. The guard and Dawen have never even seen the appearance of Shenlong.

People who are completely suspected by Shenlong will never see the dragon's appearance, let alone know whether he really exists.And if someone learns the truth by accident, the God of Five Flowers will immediately send his subordinates to hunt down and kill him. This is a promise to Shenlong and the only way to exchange for the continuation of human civilization.

But the worst thing is not these, the scholar who had already lost his soul turned his back completely after learning the truth, and became another kind of existence in hell—ghost, he recruited all the ugly souls who were willing to follow him, and further gave them energy, and the wrong use of his modus could not eliminate this contender in the underworld.But he is not willing to appear only in hell, he even likes to plunder human souls and beliefs more than demons, wandering in the yin and yang world, he calls himself a yin and yang scholar.

He has been looking for traces of dragons, because he hopes to eliminate all the dragons that exist in the world, and he does not want the fact that he was a human to spread, so once someone knows that dragons exist in the world, they will be chased by both parties.The purpose of the Tianling tribe is to silence the people, and the purpose of the yin and yang scholars is to find out the whereabouts of the dragon. In short, those who get this information will have a very tragic fate.

After we learned this unbelievable but unbelievable legend from He Zhuang, we all felt heavy. After a long silence, Ma Tianxing said: "Is there no way to lift the curse?"

He Zhuang said: "Yes, there are three paths to choose from. First, you become the guard of the Dragon Clan. Second, you become the Dawen of the Dragon Clan. Third, you become the news of the Dragon Clan."

Ma Tianxing said: "Are there any conditions?"

He Zhuang said: "Dawen is a person who has supernatural powers and can communicate with dragons. The audio needs to be tested by Wuhuashen and Shenlong to make them believe that you are the purest person, or you can rely on your own real skills. Escaped from the pursuit of all dragon guards and became a dragon guard."

Ma Tianxing said, "Same as you?"

He Zhuang said: "My family is one of the oldest guards of the Dragon Clan. I don't need to pass the test, but if you want to join, you must fight people like me to get it."

Ma Tianxing gasped and said, "I can't beat you."

He Zhuang said: "Compared with these guards, I am nothing. The opponents they face are all underlings of Yin-Yang scholars, ghosts who escaped from hell. Not a human anymore."

Ma Tianxing said: "So I'm basically dead?"

He Zhuang said: "That may not be the case, there is still a way."

Ma Tianxing's eyes lit up and said: "You say."

He Zhuang thought for a while and said, "Forget it, let's not talk about it."

Ma Tianxing said: "Zhuangzi, you are not meaning enough, this is a matter of human life, how can you be so vague?"

He Zhuang ignored him, got up and said, "Let's go out quickly, there are so many evil sects here, and the Dragon Tomb is not a place for people to stay."

Strange to say, there is nothing here, just a very long staircase.As we went up, we suddenly heard the sound of water, and the head Chen said: "There is a yin waiting for us in front, although I am sure it is not as powerful as the dragon, but it must be much stronger than us, Zhuangzi, what can you do?" ?"

He Zhuang said: "Yes, Xiaoxue is Dawen."

In fact, I already guessed it in my heart. Judging from her behavior of trying to find He Zhuang's secret, if it weren't for Dawen, she would not be so concerned about He Zhuang's affairs.

A Xue said: "I just heard about it from my father, but I do have the ability to communicate with animals, but with a fetish like Qiu Yin, to be honest, I don't have any confidence."

Head Chen said: "Don't be intimidated by its size, it's just an animal."
