Forbidden City

Chapter 672

I rested for a while, and after my emotions stabilized completely, this time, I chose the gate of death, and as soon as I entered, two zombies with big knives rushed towards me, and I didn't do anything, just like the demon soul said, As long as I don't show panic, tension, killing intent or anger, these things won't attack me at all.

In this tomb, besides the zombies, there are more than a dozen huge beasts. These beasts look like tigers, but they are red all over, which is very terrifying.

I sensed that the aura of these beasts is not very strong, just like an ordinary exorcist.

The first floor is really not dangerous. As long as you don't encounter too many monsters, you can usually kill them with a few exorcists working together.

I walked through eight dead doors in a row. In these eight tombs, there are monsters, ghosts and zombies, and some treasures can be seen. I am familiar with the environment and dangers, and I am no longer nervous about all the monsters.

When the stone door of the ninth tomb was opened, there was an extremely spacious hall inside. Looking at the spacious and bright surroundings, I thought I had gone to the wrong place.

This is exactly the same as the entrance of the main hall on the first floor, just like everything you saw when you first entered the emperor's mausoleum!
There is a huge crystal lamp above the head, familiar murals on the four walls, and a lifelike tall statue in the center.

I walked in the direction of the statue, and soon, there were mummified corpses lying on the ground in my sight. Although these corpses were already charred, it could be vaguely judged from their shapes and outlines that they were some Foreigners, they are all dressed up in modern clothes. I walked forward and found a total of twenty corpses.

I checked several corpses. Although each corpse is a mummy, the wounds on their bodies are not knife wounds. They must have suffered a lot before they died, and then they were sucked dry by a mysterious force and turned into Mummy.

These corpses had been dead for no more than two months. It seemed that these people must be the first group of people who came here.

The demon soul said: "These people were all killed by the tomb guards. Did you see the belly of the idol? There is a book in the right hand of the idol, and the book is just pressed in his arms. In fact, that book is a door. The tomb guard People live in the belly of gods."

The god statue is tens of meters high, and the tomb keeper lives in the belly of the god statue. This is really clever, and no one can think of it.

"As long as you don't get close to the entrance of the third floor, the grave guard will not come out. Once you get close, the grave guard will take action. If you do as I said, the grave guard will not attack you."

I walked up to the statue and began to worship, kowtow, and salute devoutly. Everything was done very well.

Then, the devil soul asked me to dispose of all the corpses around, and then clean up the ground. Goodness, I am qualified to enter the third floor, and the gravekeeper can sense whether anyone has killed the monster in the pyramid.

As long as I don't kill the monsters in the pyramid, I can prove my kindness even more, so I can enter the third floor smoothly.

I am a little confused, do all the monsters in the pyramid like kind people?As a person in the world of yin and yang, there are no purely righteous and kind people. It can be said that they just distinguish whether the person who comes is an enemy or a friend, or whether there is any malice towards them.

I moved all the corpses in a large open space. Instead of cremating them, I took out the potion given to me by Sergeant Tianshan Wang from the Maiden Ring.

When I cooperated with Sergeant Wang, this medicine helped me a lot. It can destroy the corpse and wipe out the traces, which is more direct than cremation.

I still have more than 50 bottles of medicine. After so long, I don't know whether these medicines have expired or not.

I spread the potion in the bottle and sprinkled it on the corpse. After the corpse touched the potion, it began to melt rapidly. I used more than a dozen bottles of potion. After a few minutes, all the corpses turned into a puddle of blood. There was a burst of stench.

For their clothes, I used fire attribute power to destroy them all, then evaporated the blood, then washed the ground with water attribute power, and dried it again.

After more than half an hour, no traces could be seen on the ground, and there was no peculiar smell around.

Then, under the instruction of the demon soul, I walked behind the statue. A hundred meters away, there were still nine extremely huge gates.

The demon soul said: "Go to the sixth door."

I walked towards the sixth door, and just as I reached the door, a sudden voice came from behind me, "Your Excellency, please stay."

This voice is very pleasant, giving people a very comfortable feeling, and it is Chinese.

I turned around, and this person was already five meters away from me. I was terrified. This person appeared five meters away from me silently?
The devil soul told me that this person is the grave guard.

I carefully looked at the man in front of me, but from his appearance, he was about thirty years old, wearing a simple silver armor with a huge sword on his waist, but strangely, he didn't wear a helmet.

This man looked like an ordinary soldier, not a general or anything like that.

I pretended not to know the identity of the tomb keeper, and said in surprise: "Your Excellency's cultivation is really powerful. I didn't find anyone here when I came here, but Your Excellency appeared behind me without a sound."

The gravekeeper said indifferently: "It's just some tricks, it's nothing to worry about."

The aura of the tomb keeper gave me a feeling of spring breeze. I was very surprised. I originally thought that the tomb keeper would be like the monsters in other pyramids I saw.

Chatting with the gravekeeper was very comfortable. It was like talking to a good friend I hadn't seen for a long time, so I chatted without any worries.

I smiled and said, "Your outfit is really strange. It looks like an ancient Egyptian outfit. By the way, why can you speak our Chinese language? And it's so pure. If it weren't for your appearance, I would have thought you were We are Chinese."

The gravekeeper is very easy-going, "I am proficient in various languages, and Huaxia is just one of them. I can tell at a glance that you are from Huaxia."

"Oh? Why?" I was really surprised this time.

"Because you have the aura of a guardian on your body. Like me, you are a natural guardian."

protector?I was very puzzled by the tomb guard's words, "Your Excellency, I'm afraid you made a mistake, right? I'm just here for an adventure."

The gravekeeper explained: "The Huaxia Shenlong is a natural patron saint. You have the aura of a Shenlong on your body. How could I feel wrong?"

I was stunned. He must have sensed the reverse scale that the golden dragon left in my body. Why did he sense it?Is he also a dragon?Or this kind of breath can only be sensed by the guardians?

I admired: "Your Excellency really has good eyesight, but I am not the real guardian, but Shenlong gave me its reverse scale as a gift."

This is my secret, but Mohun said that I should tell the gravekeeper, in exchange for his trust. Telling one's secret to someone is indeed the most direct and effective way to gain the trust of the other party.

The tomb guard looked suddenly enlightened, "I see, that's why I feel that your power is so weak, but you can gain the respect of Shenlong, and Shenlong even gave you its most important reverse scale, which shows that Shenlong trusts you very much." .”

"Just now I saw that you cleaned up all the corpses here, and even chanted a mantra to save them. It can be seen that you have a kind heart. I also sensed the aura on your body. You have not hurt any of the grave guards here. I would like to ask Your Excellency, how did you come all this way?"

My face darkened, and I deliberately pretended to be very surprised, "Your Excellency, who are you? Why do you know so many things?"

The keeper of the tomb smiled slightly, and said without any concealment: "I am the guardian of the second floor of the emperor's mausoleum. If you kill our people, I will sense the evil thoughts our people left on you, but you have no There is no evil thought, and there is no sign of being cursed, so I can be sure that you have not touched any of us."

"Gravekeeper! You..." I continued to perform, and even took a few steps back in horror, "You... Are you a human or a ghost?"

The gravekeeper smiled and said, "Your Excellency, there is no need to panic. You have walked through so many tombs and seen so many spirits and evil spirits. Am I scarier than those terrifying monsters?"

I said: "Those spirits and evil spirits are unconscious, they only distinguish between enemies and friends based on their killing intent and aura, but you are different, you actually... have you lived for thousands of years?"

The grave guard said: "It seems that you know a lot, yes, I have lived for thousands of years."

I was still surprised and said: "My God, what do you eat here for 1 years? What do you drink? Are you lonely?"

I'm chatting with the tomb guard on purpose here, I can't pretend to know everything, or I'll show my feet, I want to win his favor, so that the next few floors will be easier, or in other words, when I go out , he will not embarrass me.

The tomb guard said: "You don't understand many things, even if I tell you, you still don't understand. I want to ask, what did you come to Pharaoh's tomb for?"

"This..." I said with some embarrassment: "Your Excellency, to be honest, what I have to do here is very important and cannot be leaked out. Please forgive me, I cannot tell you."

The tomb guard said indifferently: "Your Excellency, you are someone you can trust. If what you want to do is not to endanger the pyramid, I can help you. Moreover, you can take away the ten treasures in the second floor." , Of course, in exchange, you also have to do me a favor."

The gravekeeper wants to help me?And let me take the treasure, so good?But he asked me to help, so this task must be very difficult.

"Your Excellency, what can you do for me?" I asked directly.

The tomb guard said: "You first tell me the purpose of your coming here. To show my sincerity, after I help you, it is not too late for you to help me."

Take my word for it?Or does he really want to help me?I thought for a while and said, "The purpose of my coming here... is to take away something from the pyramid."

"Oh? What?"

"This thing is on the ninth floor, and it's not something from your pyramid. It's a treasure that was sealed in the pyramid ten thousand years ago."

The tomb guard's face changed when he heard the words, "You mean the key to life and death?"

I nodded heavily.

"Your Excellency, I'm afraid I can't help you with this. Although the key of life and death is not something in our pyramid, that person said ten thousand years ago that the key of life and death can only be obtained by fate. People in our pyramid can't intervene, and we can't take the key of life and death. key to anyone."

"So, I can't help you with this matter, nor can I provide you with any useful information, but...as long as you are sincere, I think I should be able to get it."

The gravekeeper didn't ask me what I wanted the key of life and death for, but directly refused to help.
