As the downfall of the Republic of China, there was a Taoist priest named Uncle Jiu

Going back to the place where the tree demon was killed, four pavilions were built with "[-]" around the tree demon.

These four attics are exquisitely built with carved railings and jade. The light is too dim, making the attics as black as splashed ink, and the whole body has no color at all. It seems that the four pavilions seem to melt into the darkness.

Boom!

Ji Chunhua poked it with the hilt of his sword, and it seemed that he hit the iron plate: "This attic is actually all made of pig iron."

Everyone else reached out and knocked, and there was a sound of metal colliding.

Ji Chunhua first put the paper figurine in and walked around to make sure there was no danger, so everyone entered.

As soon as you enter the door, the first floor is the main hall, and even the floor inside is paved with cast iron.

There is a barefoot jade statue in the hall, which should be the medicine king in the immortal way. The statue is not high, only about two feet, but it is full of luster.

"So this is where the attic of alchemy is located."

When Shi Jian saw the statue of the King of Medicine, he knew where it was.

There must be extremely precious medicinal materials stored inside. The big osmanthus tree at the bottom of the well is supposed to absorb Yin Qi, so as to keep the pills and ointments in Luge from going bad. Unexpectedly, the big tree absorbed Dan Qi and became Refined.

There are not many things in the attic, but there are quite a few porcelain vases, which are full of rare panacea, which are of great value. Shi Jian also recognized some of the lost panaceas.

Some are very tightly sealed, and the medicinal properties of the Zhicao meat mushroom inside are still the same.

Among them, there is a jade letter that is the most conspicuous. There are painted lacquer paintings on it, all of which are auspicious patterns of pine, crane and fairy grass.

Opening the cover, I saw several grids inside the letter, each grid has a small gold medal, and inside the grids are medicine stones of different shapes.

After careful identification, the gold medal has words like lion pincers, spider treasures, snake eyes, dog treasures, turtle treasures, etc., all of which are inner pills and stones of various spiritual creatures.

Even the smallest Spider Treasure inside is about the size of a walnut and in the shape of a black pill. It is a rare panacea.

It's just that the potion has lost a lot of its efficacy over a long period of time. Fortunately, it has been well preserved and has not been completely lost.

Shi Jian's heart beat faster when he saw it. These elixirs and medicinal materials are enough to raise Maoshan's overall strength by a small step.

After searching the four attics, there are no other treasures except medicine pills and medicinal materials, so continue to search.

After walking for about half an hour, I came to a huge crack, where the sun shines, and the cliffs on both sides are getting higher and higher, like a moat splitting the mountain. Standing at this place, you can see the sky when you look up.

"It looks like this is the middle of the mountain. I didn't expect Pingshan to have such a big crack, almost splitting the mountain in two. From the top of the mountain, you can directly see the bottom." He Xinzhi said tut-tsk.

"Look at the cliffs on both sides."

Gou Wusheng pointed to a cave cut out of a cliff, and he could see a rotten coffin inside.

"So many hanging coffins?"

Looking up, there are dense hanging coffins on the cliffs on both sides.

Ji Chunhua said in a deep voice, "It's too strange that there are so many hanging coffins, at least a thousand."

"The most common way of burial in China is earth burial, because people believe that the burial of the dead is the inevitable destination of human beings. All living beings must die, and death must return to the soil. When people die, they are called ghosts, and ghosts return. The essence returns to the sky, and the flesh returns to the earth. "

"But in addition to burial, there are sky burial, water burial, cremation, tower burial, joint burial, tree burial, boat coffin burial and other methods. No matter what kind of burial method, they all entrust their loved ones with their thoughts."

"Among them, cliff burial is the least burial method. It is difficult to send a coffin containing corpses and burial objects weighing hundreds of kilograms into a high cliff cave, and it is difficult to find a suitable cliff cave wall for suitable burial. It is even more difficult to dig the hole, and if there is no cliff hole, it has to be re-dug 0..."

"The earliest cliff burials were because people lived in caves. Since people lived in caves when they were alive, they should be buried back where they were when they died."

"Then it evolved to regard the high and dangerous peaks and lofty mountains as the support of life, or create a sense of mystery because they are inaccessible and difficult to touch."

"And then worship it as the residence of the gods or the road to the sky, so they put the coffins of the dead between the cliffs of the mountains and mountains, so that not only the souls of the dead are close to the fairy kingdom, but more importantly, they are easy to convert. Attached to the fairy kingdom."

"There is also the most simple point of view. There are too many wild beasts in the high mountains, and they are buried in cliff caves to prevent the corpses from being dug out and eaten by wild beasts."

Ji Chunhua has traveled all over the world for so many years. He has been to the Northeast in the north, Hainan in the south, Southern Fujian in the east, and Xinjiang and Tibet in the west. He is very familiar with these folk customs.

"Unlike burials, cliff burials never bury too many people on one cliff. Under normal circumstances, the two cliffs can bury at most 100 people, but here, at least more than [-]."

"This large tomb is full of dangers, but there are so many hanging coffins here, it doesn't look like a decoration."

Everyone recalled that when they came down, they encountered countless poisonous insects and centipedes, which instantly melted people into thick water.

In the underground undercurrent, I encountered two tomb-slayer beasts with a 5.2 human face and a beast face.

The water is also poisonous.

Countless forks are enough to trap people in it.

It is also suspected that the tomb town beast kills and eats people.

Hundreds of arms in the mist were about to pull them into the water.

An eighteen-story hell tower, a thousand-year-old tree demon.

One by one, one by one, all kinds of dangers are clearly intended to kill all outsiders.

With so many hanging coffins, it would not be so simple after much deliberation.

Gu Zhou picked up a big stone with his fist and threw it with all his strength. With the screaming sound, a hanging coffin exploded directly, and the inside was empty, let alone a corpse, not even a dead bone.

After that, they did the same thing, and then destroyed several hanging coffins, all of which were empty.

Chapter 295 Weird Tai Sui

"Weird, too weird."

Ji Chunhua felt a chill run down his spine.

"Thousands of hanging coffins are all empty, but what is the significance of placing empty hanging coffins on the cliff?"

"In the beginning, the hanging coffin must not be empty, but where did the bones inside go?"

He Xinzhi said: "Whatever his strangeness, the soldiers came to cover him with water and earth. If no danger is found, it means there is no danger!"

Gu Zhou sighed lightly, moved his left foot away, and lightly shoveled a small hole with the tip of his toe, revealing a black handle, grabbed the handle and pulled it out, it turned out to be a ghost knife.

"Master, do you still remember the executioner we met when we went to Pingshan?"

Gu Zhou felt that this ghost knife looked very familiar.

Shi Jian thought about it: "Do you suspect that this ghost-headed knife belongs to him? This ghost-headed knife is full of evil spirits. At least three to five hundred heads were cut off. It is rare. It should belong to him. So he has buried here?"

One of Ji Chunhua's disciples suddenly exclaimed, pointing to the cliff: "Did you see it?"

"what did you see?"

Ji Chunhua frowned.

The disciple hesitated for a moment: "I'm not sure if I have 06's eyesight, the cliff seems to... squirm..."

"You saw it too? I caught a glimpse of it out of the corner of my eye. I just thought I was dazzled. How could the cliff move?"

Gu Zhou snorted coldly: "If it's moving, you'll know if you try it!"

Pick up a coin-sized rock, flex your fingers, and shoot!

Rumble!

Like a cannon fired, a wave of air flashed in the void, and a white wave of air rolled and stirred, spanning tens of meters and bombarding the cliff heavily.

There was no loud crashing sound. Although the cliff blasted a hole the size of a millstone, what flowed out was blood. Piles of flesh and blood were wriggling, and there was something stretching like blood inside.

"Damn! What the hell is this? The cliff has become a spirit?"

Gou Wusheng screamed, the corners of his mouth twitched wildly, and he retreated more than ten steps.

Even Gu Zhou was horrified when he saw the squirming white flesh and bright red blood.

Everyone attacked, and no matter where the attack was on the cliff, what was broken was white wriggling flesh and gurgling blood. After being broken, it was still wriggling quickly, as if wanting to recover.

He Xinzhi scolded: "Fuck! Living meat? Could it be that the cliff became a spirit? Even if a stone became a spirit, it is impossible to grow blood and flesh. I have lived for so long in this life. I have never seen such a weird thing."

In such an evil scene, no matter how courageous he is, his hands and feet feel cold for a while, and he only feels a chill spreading all over his body.

Ji Chunhua thought he was well-informed, and he also felt that this scene was beyond his understanding.

Gu Zhou pulled out the seedling knife and slashed forward. The stabbing of the seedling knife was soft and fleshy to the touch. His seedling knife was more than 1.3 meters long except for the handle, which means that the thickness of this layer of flesh and blood is over 1.3 meters. .

"Ok?"

Swiping down hard, I bumped into a hard object, and when I picked it hard, a fuzzy mass was picked out.

Bang!

When the lump fell to the ground, Ji Chunhua felt a boundless chill in his heart: "This is the executioner..."

The executioner was bloody and bloody, his whole body was stained with sticky mucus, his skin and facial features were corroded, exposing the fascia under the skin, and some internal organs could be seen, it was hard to tell who he was from the outside.

However, combined with the ghost head knife and his peculiar body shape, it is not difficult to see that he is the executioner who went up the mountain with Gu Zhou and others.

Gu Zhou stared at the bloody corpse, and said in a deep voice: "I know where all the bones on the hanging coffin have gone. I'm afraid they were all swallowed by this thing. This executioner was swallowed by this thing. If I hadn't dug it out , I'm afraid it will be digested by it and become a part of it."

Shi Jian guessed: "This thing is a bit like Tai Sui..."

"Tai Sui? Eldest brother, are you kidding me? Tai Sui can weigh a hundred catties, which is great."

He Xinzhi didn't quite believe that this thing was Tai Sui, and was more inclined to be an unknown monster.

"Is it too old?"

Gu Zhou frowned slightly.

Tai Sui, also known as Ganoderma lucidum.

According to ancient records, Rouzhi looks like meat.Attached to the boulder, with the head and the tail, it is a living thing.The red ones are like coral, the white ones are like fat, the black ones are like varnish, the green ones are like emerald feathers, and the yellow ones are like purple gold.

According to modern research, Tai Sui is a rare aggregate composed of slime mold, bacteria and fungi that grows underground. However, there are many controversies about the existence, function and medicinal use of Tai Sui.

In modern times, Gu Zhou really had close contact with the Tai Sui. During the New Year greetings in his hometown, a distant uncle got a strange disease from the jujube tree he planted, so he had to cut it down and replant it.

He contacted the excavator to clean up the jujube tree. Unexpectedly, he found a big white ball from a tree root pit. He saw that the white ball had two round heads, and it felt as elastic as boiled cowhide bands. There is a sticky feeling to the hands. ?

It spread throughout the village in a short period of time. Gu Zhou ran to see it out of curiosity, and even played with it in his hand. The surface of the thing was covered with protrusions similar to blood vessels, and the surface had obvious meat-like texture. Touch this Tai Sui lightly, the surface is soft and elastic, it is soft in the hand, and the hardness is a bit like jelly.

It looks like a big fat piece of meat as a whole, and its name has "meat" in its 663 characters, which is really worthy of the name.

"Such a Tai Sui, is it really possible?"

Gu Zhou remembered that the meat Ganoderma lucidum dug out by Yuanfang Tangshu was only two footballs in size, and was finally bought by someone for 50 yuan.

He also tends to think that it is impossible to have such a big Tai Sui in time.

But Ji Chunhua said: "But is it normal for Tai Sui to devour so many bones? If all the bones in this hanging coffin are eaten by Tai Sui, it is not impossible to grow to such a large size."

Gu Zhou suddenly looked at the five sons of Changsheng: "Do you know if this is Tai Sui?"

Boss He nodded: "It's Tai Sui. More than 400 years ago, he was not as big as one percent of what he is now."

Everyone was quiet, and after guessing for a long time, it turned out that this guy already knew about it.

"Since you recognized it, why didn't you say it earlier!" He Xinzhi's eyes were not friendly.

Boss He was aggrieved: "You didn't ask me."

"Tai Sui meat can be eaten one piece after another, and you can live forever."

Shi Jian said quietly.

It is said that even if a piece of Tai Sui is cut off, it will grow back again, so it is endowed with the meaning of longevity.

But eating Tai Sui, it is uncertain whether it can live forever.

Boss He yelled: "I have eaten so many bones of this big monster, can you really eat it?".

Chapter 296 Corpse Ginseng

"Since this thing is not a threat to us for the time being, let's leave it alone, how about it."

Gu Zhou discussed with everyone.

Everyone has no opinion, and continues to move forward. With the boss as a local snake, the purpose is much stronger, and luck is no longer needed.

Everyone walked forward tens of meters vigilantly, seeing that Tai Sui was still attached to the cliff wall in good condition, except for a slight wriggling, there was no other movement, so they couldn't help but heaved a sigh of relief.

Suddenly the ground shook, and there were holes in the ground, and blood-red tentacles emerged from the ground, with a huge mouthpart on the top of the tentacles.

Before Ji Chunhua's disciples could utter a sound, they were tightly entangled by fleshy tentacles, and they were quickly taken away. Then, the mouthparts of the tentacles swelled like a boa constrictor wrapped around the prey, and violently grabbed the prey. Swallowed it, squirmed, covered the head and shoulders and devoured it.

Keng!

Gu Zhou raised his foot, the ground rumbled and shook, only the loud sound of thunder erupting, the Miao Dao was attached to the lightning, and the light of the sword flashed in the air like thunder, like the sword energy of thunder.
