Step through fairy dust

When Shen Canglang saw that it was Nangong Zi, he was not surprised, because as early as when Nangong Zi separated from them, he quietly assigned a ray of consciousness to Nangong Zi, ready to see where Nangong Zi was going. do what.

Then he discovered that after Nangong Zi dodged into another fork, he did not go far, but turned back. When Jimo Ye led them to another fork, Nangong Zi quietly followed, without stopping. Not far behind them.

Shen Canglang didn't know if Jimo Ye was aware of it, but he didn't intend to tell the truth about it. Presumably Nangong Zi, like him, didn't trust Jimo Ye.This made him a little puzzled. In the novel, although Nangong Zi has a heart for Meng Kunlun, she also has a feeling of reverence and admiration for her childhood sweetheart Jimo Ye.But looking at the situation in front of him, Nangong Zifei not only does not have that kind of charming affection for Jimo Ye, but also is quite wary of suspecting Jimo Ye.

However, Shen Canglang has learned to calm down and accept this naughty plot master who keeps changing again and again.

Nangong Zi knelt on the ground, looking at the almost inhuman corpse, her hands trembling and wanted to touch it, but Meng Kunlun called out lightly: "Don't touch it."

Nangong Zi paused her hand in mid-air, then she lowered her eyes and bit her lower lip hard.She had been quietly following behind Jimo Ye and the others before, and she had already seen the weirdness in this mausoleum. There were countless bugs lurking in this mausoleum. Every flower and grass in this mausoleum might be hiding bugs.

Shen Canglang looked at Nangong Zi's stubborn but still upright back, and couldn't help sighing. Even though Nangong Zi was born in a family of tomb robbers and was used to evil people, her heart was also quite vicious and she would do things by any means. It was nothing more than a young girl, how could she not feel sad when she saw her father die tragically.

The big worms rolling all over the ground screamed strangely, the spiritual fire was different from ordinary flames, and it burned endlessly. Soon, the three of them smelled a burnt and rotten smell, and the scarlet Blood gushed out from the big worm, like a thick slurry, disgusting.

Accompanied by the strange scream of the big bug, countless densely packed small bugs suddenly crawled out from the hundreds of corpses on the ground.

Shen Canglang hadn't observed these corpses carefully all this time, but now he used his spiritual sense to look, and found that the internal organs of these corpses were all densely packed with black dots, some of which had grown to look like this big bug, and were about the same size. But the monsters are much smaller.

"Not good! This big bug is probably using these corpses as containers for laying eggs." Shen Canglang frowned.

No wonder the bodies of those people were eaten up in an instant outside, but the corpses of these people here are still intact. It turned out that the big bug used these corpses as a place to lay eggs. As a food reserve, the corpse is used as a nest when laying eggs. This bug is really calculating...

No, no matter how weird this worm looks, it is nothing more than a mortal worm beast. Its intelligence has not yet been enlightened, and it obviously does not think of these methods... Could it be that someone brought these people in and gave it to this big beast? Worms as food reserves and hatching nests?Who would that person be?

Thinking about it now, it is quite strange that the tomb of Emperor Chaotian has not been discovered for thousands of years. As the king of a country and the founding emperor, how could his tomb be ignored by the historians and not recorded in the annals of history?Chaotian is different from China. China's history has been dated, so it is normal that the earlier history cannot be tested. For example, during the Xia, Shang and Zhou Dynasties, many historical documents are missing. research.However, Chaotian is not the case. Its history is continuous, one country inherits from another, and there is no historical gap at all. Then why is there no record of the founding emperor's tomb in the history books?

Could it be that someone deliberately concealed it?

Shen Canglang suddenly felt that this was a big game of chess.

If someone really concealed this news and wiped out the existence of this mausoleum from history, how much skill and ability would it take to do such a thing?

If there is really such a person, there is only one person... the founding emperor of Chaotian.

But if Emperor Chaotian really wiped out the existence of this tomb, how did the Jimo family and Nangong family know the existence of this tomb?Looking at the hundreds of corpses on the ground, before them, I am afraid that many people have also learned of the existence of this tomb from "some kind of channel".

So many people have entered the tomb of Emperor Chaotian, but there is no record in history, and there are no rumors, so there is only one possibility, that is, everyone who entered this tomb died, and the news has not been revealed.And after the last group of people who entered this tomb died, the existence of this tomb would be leaked to the next group of people through some kind of channel, and then the next group of people would step into this tomb again to die... and so on. .

So, what is the purpose of the person who made the layout?

Shen Canglang practiced the light body formula while thinking deeply.

The road ahead was supposed to be their way back, but to their surprise, the layout of the road ahead seemed to be different from what they had come here before.

The three of them also noticed this situation, but they were all silent and did not speak.

Shen Canglang thought about it, and told Meng Kunlun his guess through his divine sense. Although he admired Nangong Zi's stubborn independence, he didn't believe in Nangong Zi at all.

"Who do you think will be the person who made the layout?"

Like him, Meng Kunlun ran away using the tactic of light body. He glanced at Shen Canglang and replied, "You have already made a conclusion, haven't you?"

"...I just find it a little unbelievable," Shen Canglang continued to use his divine sense, "If it is really Emperor Chaotian...he established the Dynasty of Chaotian, unified the world, ended the war, and let those who suffered from the war have their wives and children displaced. The people with scattered families live and work in peace and contentment. It is said that he was also very wise and caring for the people when he was in power. Such a good founding emperor actually set up such a terrible trap in his own mausoleum to lure his people to die here... Is he a good person after all? Or a bad guy?"

Meng Kunlun said: "The people who come here are grave robbers who want to gain ill-gotten gains."

"His purpose can't be just to punish these tomb robbers." Shen Canglang frowned.

The people who came to the tomb of Emperor Chaotian all came for the treasure of Emperor Chaotian. For a founding emperor, his funeral objects were rich. All the tomb robbers who came here had blood on their hands and burdened The desperadoes who owed their debts, regardless of whether they were unhappy with the retribution of the fruit wheel or not, these people eventually died in this mausoleum and became the nourishment of the bugs.

"Emperor Chaotian seems to be luring these people to come and feed the worms in this tomb." Shen Canglang felt very strange, how could there be so many worms in this tomb?Even if the sky respects insects, who would keep so many insects in their own mausoleum?

"It should have something to do with the longevity tree," Meng Kunlun said.

"Longevity tree?" Shen Canglang paused, what is the relationship between insects and trees?Worms just eat empty trees, right?If Emperor Chaotian really planted a longevity tree in his mausoleum, what was the purpose of raising these bugs? It is obvious that bugs and trees can only grow and restrain each other.

"Go forward and you will know." Meng Kunlun looked ahead.

The three kept running forward, and as they ran, there was a faint light shining in front of them.

Is there an exit ahead?

Shen Canglang couldn't help being a little puzzled, they had been walking underground, it stands to reason that they should be deep underground now, how could there be light shining in?If a big hole is dug on the roof of the tomb, it should easily cause a collapse... However, in this unscientific world, anything is possible.

Soon, the answer will be revealed.

The three of them ran along the tomb passage in the palace to the end, and saw a door that was exactly the same as the one they saw when they entered. The light poured down along the crack of the door.

Nangong Zi was silent, and walked towards the door first.

The door opened again without wind.

The sight in front of them almost made everyone exclaim.

Just in front of the palace, there is actually a mass grave with a width of about one hundred feet!

It was a huge and incomparably deep pit, so deep that it almost made people despair.

Surrounding the pit is a treacherous formation, it can be seen that it is made of blood, I don't know that after many years, the blood has been coagulated, and it has already turned black. Can smell the stench.

Without any hesitation, Shen Canglang walked towards the mass grave, until he reached the edge of the mass grave, and stood in front of the treacherous formation.

He looked into the depths of the mass grave, and what was strange was that the corpses in the mass grave were not the bones he imagined... but the corpses of insects densely packed!

Some of those bugs were already dead, exuding a rancid smell, while some were still struggling and wriggling. The densely packed bugs made one's scalp feel numb. How many bugs are there?I'm afraid that the entire Chaotian people, combined, don't have as many bugs as here!

Nangong Zi also saw the scene in the pit, her face turned pale, and she almost vomited, but she still held back.

Shen Canglang couldn't help showing a little more admiration for this stubborn woman. Although he still didn't trust Nangong Zi very much in his heart, as a man, he still planned to comfort her with gentle words, but when he turned his head But when he saw the scene opposite, his expression changed.

On the opposite side of the mass grave, countless densely packed insects are constantly gathering from all around, forming a scalp-numbing swarm, squirming towards the mass grave.

Those worms seemed like brave men who went to die generously, as if they couldn't see the deadly pit in front of them, they jumped towards the mass grave, not climbing down, but jumping down together.

Shen Canglang was dumbfounded.

"Jimo Ye!" Meng Kunlun said suddenly.

Nangong Zi and Shen Canglang were also terrified, and they were about to concentrate on meeting the enemy, but when they followed Meng Kunlun's gaze towards that place, they all froze.

Jimo Ye was struggling and rolling in the dense swarm of insects, he couldn't even scream, blood was slowly oozing from his eyes, nose, and mouth...

He didn't struggle for a long time, but in an instant, he stopped moving.

Jimo Ye's eyes were still wide open, as if he was dying.

But he is dead.
