White Bone Monkey King

The group of people walked into Xuefeng Mountain and found that the space inside did not look like it was dug manually, but rather like a huge project that the ancient ancestors expanded along the gaps in the mountain.

Because this passage tore a high space above their heads, even the torch they held could not illuminate the end of their heads.

To carve out such a large space in the snow-capped mountains is no longer possible by manpower. It can only be achieved by the uncanny power of nature.

Everyone held torches and walked forward for a while. Jin An estimated that they had entered the mountain for a mile or two and found that the terrain here was not upward, but all the way down. They were heading towards the underground space.

The cliffs on both sides of the mountain are very steep and covered with thick layers of ice. These layers of ice are made from snow that has melted and solidified, solidified and melted again. Thick layers of ice and icicles accumulated over the years. Those icicles are even bigger than a human arm. Still thick.

Suddenly, Jin An's figure paused, and everyone asked what was going on. Then they looked down along the torch in Jin An's hand. It turned out that a dead end road appeared in front of them. Beyond the dead end road was a cliff with a depth of ten thousand feet.

If Jin An hadn't heard the news and been mentally prepared in advance, the mountain would have been pitch black and the vision would have been poor. If he had followed the inertia and moved forward, he might have missed the mark and fallen into a dead end.

At Jin'an's reminder, everyone bypassed Duantou Road and continued walking down a steep cliff path.

There is a narrow cliff path on one side, and an unfathomable cliff on the other. Those who are a little brave or have a fear of heights will simply suffer when walking here, just like an old Taoist priest whose legs have begun to weaken and he simply dare not Distracted and looked to the side.

While walking in silence, Qi Bo's voice suddenly sounded from behind the team: "What's wrong with you, sir? Have you discovered anything?"

Hearing the sound from behind the team, Jin An, who was walking in front, stopped, the silly sheep following him also stopped, and the old Taoist priest also stopped holding on to the rock wall.

Jin An turned around and saw Mr. Yiyun and Qi Bo, who were walking at the back of the team, looking at the cliff opposite.

At this time, Mr. Yiyun raised his hand and pointed to the opposite side: "There is something opposite us, but it's too dark here and I can't see what it is."

Hearing this, Jin An also stared at the opposite side.

But he saw nothing.

However, he believed in Mr. Yiyun. Since he said there was something on the other side, he must have discovered something.

However, the opposite side was too far away from here. Several people stopped for a while and couldn't see clearly what was on the opposite cliff. And what can attract Young Master Yiyun's attention must not be an ordinary thing.

Jin An: "The large army is walking in front of us. We haven't seen a single body along the way. For now, it's safe here. We don't need to be too nervous. We can continue on our way and be more vigilant."

Young Master Yiyun stopped and stared for a while, but in the dark space, she still couldn't see the other side clearly. She finally nodded and continued to move forward with the team.

But along the way, she would stare at the opposite cliff from time to time. It seemed that there were not many things on the opposite cliff, and she could feel the presence of many unknown things along the way.

After walking in the darkness for who knows how long, they finally reached the bottom of the cliff. There was a roar of people at the bottom of the cliff, with thunderous screams and joyous laughter. It seemed that the large troops who advanced up the mountain had really discovered a god inside Xuefeng Mountain. Tibetan!

Several people looked at each other and quickly walked towards a passage at the bottom of the cliff.

When he turned the passage, he suddenly saw a golden light in front of his eyes, which dazzled the eyes of several people who had already adapted to the dark underground space. When they adapted to the light in front of them, Jin An looked forward attentively and was stunned.

At their feet, a low-lying basin appeared. The basin was filled with mountains of gold coins, gold nuggets, gold jewelry, and gold antiques. Looking around, there were no fewer than dozens of them. The edges could not be seen at a glance. They were filled with mountains of gold. Underground basin space.

This astonishing amount of gold makes people's eyes sparkle with gold. Who would have thought that there is astonishing gold stored under the Kunlun Mountains that can buy several countries. Even Jin An's heart was deeply touched.

"Mom, this, so much gold...this gold is enough to buy several Kangding Kingdoms!" The old Taoist priest was dumbfounded and stammered when he spoke.

The accumulation of so many mountains of gold is truly astonishing.

"They say that the Kingdom of the Immortal God is filled with gold. Why do I think this is the real Kingdom of the Immortal God?"

Standing on a high place and looking at the golden mountains in the basin below, there are so many nuggets that are too numerous to count. There are many people greedily holding the nuggets that are bigger than human heads and laughing crazily. Every space on their bodies that can be used to carry things is full. The old Taoist priest couldn't help but sigh again at the shiny gold coins.

As the saying goes, the speaker is unintentional, but the listener is intentional. After hearing the old Taoist priest's sigh, Jin An and Master Yiyun looked at each other with some thoughts in their eyes.

The Kunlun Mountains separate the Western Regions from Tubo. On one side is the snowy plateau, and on the other side is the scorching desert with drought and water shortage, forming two worlds: one cold and one hot.

The location of the deepest basin in the desert happens to be bordering the Kunlun Mountains.

The reason why they did not cross the Kunlun Mountains directly from the desert basin into Tubo was firstly because the desert was very large. Without a desert map or guide, blindly crossing the desert would most likely lead to death of thirst in the desert due to lack of water. Secondly, because of the crossing The Daxue Mountains are the only way into Tubo to reach the ruins of the ancient Zhangzhung Dynasty. It is not practical to directly cross the mountains from the desert basin into the Kunlun Mountains.

It was precisely because the two were not far apart that when he heard that there was an avalanche in Kunlun Mountain, Jin An would wonder if it was related to the break of the Suzaku Bureau of the Four Symbols Bureau of Duantianjiedi and the explosion in the Desert Immortal Kingdom last year? Because the time of the two events is too close.

With some thoughts in mind, the team searched for a while at high places, and soon found a gentle slope descending into a basin filled with gold mountains.

Previously, I stood on a high place and looked at the Jinshan gold coins at my feet. Although it was shocking, it did not have a real touch after all. It was still a bit dreamlike and unreal. But when I entered the basin, I felt the compaction of the gold coins under my feet. The clanging friction of each gold coin and the down-to-earth touch made them finally believe that what they saw in front of them was not an illusion, but a real gold mountain.

swish swish——

Gold coins, gold beans, gold bracelets, gold rings, gold necklaces, gold coral trees, gold scepters, gold long-necked vases, gold crowns... flowed from their feet like quicksand. Jin'an, four of them and one sheep stepped on the golden mountain, deep into the mountains. Walk forward with one shallow foot.

The old Taoist priest who was amazed all the way bent down and picked up a golden bean. The golden color made people's hearts ripple. This golden mountain is like a mountain of human desire, which can't help but arouse the most primitive greed in people's hearts.

No one can calmly face the wealth of these incomparable countries.

Jin An is also a person of flesh and blood.

He admitted that he was also a vulgar person at this time, and he was not exempt from the vulgarity even when he faced so many golden temptations.

However, he has a little more determination and control over those people who laugh crazily while holding the gold nugget, so he is not so out of control.

The old Taoist priest holding the golden beans showed a worried look on his face, and finally sighed sadly: "Little brother, what is the meaning of this life? Our father and I have fought in life and death several times in Fucheng, Wuzhou, and we have conquered demons and demons for the suffering people of the people. , I have done countless meritorious deeds, but in the end the money I earned is not as good as picking up a golden bean here."

"It is said that all hustle and bustle in the world is beneficial. Faced with such a golden mountain, why do I suddenly feel confused about my life?"

Seeing that the old Taoist priest was not dazzled by the golden mountain in front of him, but could actually throw away the golden beans in his hand without any hesitation, Mr. Yiyun and Qi Bo who were accompanying the team were surprised to look at the old Taoist priest a few more times.

Only Jin An knew what was going on.

When he was in Fucheng, Wuzhou, he already knew that although the old Taoist priest was stingy and careless, he was never greedy or in love with money. He never had more than a hundred copper coins on his body, and every time he did something exceedingly good, the profit he got was money. , he will do charity and donate it.

The old Taoist priest also has many unknown sides.

Ding dong——

The golden beans thrown away by the old Taoist priest made a crisp sound, which was not like the dull crisp sound of golden beans, but more like the crisp sound of jade beads.

"Huh?"

Several people looked surprised.

Jin An bent down and picked up a golden bean at his feet. This time he looked back and forth carefully for a while, and then looked a little thoughtful.

Peng!

Pinch hard with two fingers.

The gold master shattered into jade powder and fell down. These were not real golden beans, but golden jade beans.

Because the view in the underground space is dim, these golden beans create a very deceptive visual bias, making people mistakenly think that this is a golden mountain.

In fact, this is not a mountain of gold, but a mountain of jade.

Those golden crowns, golden scepters, and golden swords are all made of polished jade.

Jin An and the others experimented several times and discovered this amazing truth.

"Is it all jade?"

The old Taoist priest looked stunned.

At this time, those people who were frantically carrying gold on Jinshan Mountain did not seem to realize that there were a few more outsiders in Jinshan Mountain, nor did they realize that the gold they picked up was all gold and jade. They were still frantically carrying gold with greedy expressions. , picked up a golden scepter and threw away the gold bracelet in his hand, picked up a heavy golden shield and threw away the golden scepter in his hand, and when he picked up a piece of pure gold nugget weighing more than two hundred kilograms, he threw it away again. The golden shield... These people are like picking up watermelons and throwing sesame seeds. There is always endless gold for them to pick up on the Jinshan Mountain. They look crazy and immersed in it, unable to extricate themselves.

crazy!

This is Jin An's evaluation of these people.

This basin is very large. Stepping on the rustling "Golden Mountain", four people and one sheep walked for almost half an hour. They still haven't left the atmosphere of Jinshan. Instead, a majestic Golden City ruins appeared at the end of Jinshan. .

The golden city is no different from a city. It is also surrounded by high walls, towers, gates, and wall stacks. It is magnificent and beautifully carved, just like the Tianque Immortal Palace.

"His grandma's is gold and jade again! Even if it's not real gold, so many gold and jade can be regarded as an eternal miracle!" The old Taoist priest who was holding the goat's rein in his hand and walking behind the team with Qi Bo arrived at the foot of the Golden City , with his palms pressed against the golden brick city wall, his mind was so shocked that he said that this trip to Kunlun Mountain was well worth it. I thought that the golden and jade mountain before was already shocking enough, but I didn’t expect that there is an even more incredible golden and jade city here, just like the golden one. The same golden light, today is an eye-opener, I have made a lot of money in this life.

"It is said that there is the Palace of the Queen Mother of the West in the Kunlun Mountains. Could it be that this city made of gold and jade is one of the palaces and palaces built by the Queen Mother of the West in the human world?" After the old Taoist priest marveled, the expression on his face turned into a solemn guess.

The group walked through the oppressive long and thick city gate and entered the golden city, which was suspected to be one of the palaces of the Queen Mother of the West.

The buildings in the city are also made of gold. The mansions are lined up row after row, and there are many tall buildings with exquisite carved beams and painted beams.

According to legend, the Queen Mother Palace of the West was planted with pearl trees, jade trees, and xuan trees.

And there are such a large number of Yushan and Yucheng here, so it is normal for the old Taoist priest to have such speculation.

The torch swaying in the hand shines on the surrounding splendid buildings, affecting people's minds, as if they are really walking in the golden holy city, full of golden morning glow, making people's minds sway with the torch. At this time, even without the torch lighting, the place is bright Just like the daytime, those gold and jade are shining with golden light, overflowing with golden glow, very much like the Golden Holy City and the Immortal Palace of the Queen Mother of the West.

However, the city was empty and no one was seen along the way. This was an empty city and a dead city.

Until now, they have not met the main force.

If he hadn't met dozens of people who were obsessed with money and had gone crazy in Jinyu Mountain, Jin An would have almost doubted whether the path they took was different from that of the large army, and whether there were other forks along the way.

"Little brother, have you noticed that the farther we go in, the hotter and hotter the mountains are getting?" Instead of making people feel cold in the dead empty city, the old Taoist priest was so hot that he began to take off his coat and wear only a thin monk's robe.

Jin An nodded, he also noticed.
