Chapter 57 Arena Tomb of the King of Wuwei County
Seeing that the Huo Qilin had been extinguished, Huang Erlai slowly relaxed all the energy he had accumulated in his body, and sat on the ground slumped, his stomach growling: "His grandma, I'm starving to death."
His bamboo basket, together with the steamed buns in it, had been reduced to ashes in the flames.
Meng Ping still had some dry food, so he broke one piece to Huang Erlai, and then handed the biggest piece to Cheng Xingshi: "Shizi, you can eat some too."
Cheng Xingshi didn't refuse, and sat down to eat something.
Huang Erlai felt a little hungry in his stomach, and his spirits came alive again: "Shizi, those few blows you made just now opened my eyes, you can even deal with the fire unicorn, I don't usually see anything about you, why are you so silent , suddenly have such great progress?"
Cheng Xing responded casually: "Is there?"
"That's great! We're busy now, so we don't have time to go into details. Later, you have to tell me where you stole your skills." Huang Erlai winked at him.
After eating the steamed buns wholeheartedly, the three of them didn't even bother to drink their saliva, so they stood up and planned to find the real tomb.
While eating, they heard the children's crying and laughing again. They were so used to hearing this sound, they simply ignored it and continued to gnaw their buns with their heads down.
Cheng Xingshi said: "Let's lift the iron coffin and see what's under it."
Both Meng Ping and Huang Erlai went to help move the coffin. The iron coffin was heavy, and it was still warm to the touch after being steamed by the Qilin fire.
"One, two, three, work harder!" Meng Ping yelled slogans, the muscles on his arms protruded piece by piece, and he worked hard to move the heavy iron coffin, and he was sweating profusely after a while.
They tried their best, but fortunately the iron coffin was not embedded in the ground and could be moved, so they finally moved the coffin aside.
Cheng Xingshi kept calm and exerted the most force, but he didn't sweat at all, and the warm coffin couldn't even warm his palm, which was still cold to the touch.
The things under the iron coffin were really extraordinary. The three of them looked down at the same time. There was a big round hole in the ground, and inside the hole...
Huang Erlai and Meng Ping were shocked.
This is the face of a six or seven-year-old child, with complete features, distinct eyebrows and eyelashes, and a lively expression, sometimes happy, sometimes sad, eyes rolling back and forth, and after seeing three people, he stuck out his tongue and licked it. The tongue could stick out three inches from the round hole, almost licking Cheng Xingshi's ankle.
Cheng Xingshi took the initiative to take a few steps back.
Huang Erlai was shocked when he saw this thing: "This, this... is it really a dryad?"
This child's face is all made of tree branches, and the thick vines and thin vines on the outside all grow and spread out from the edge of this face. This is the "tree root".
Meng Ping didn't know what it was, he just thought it was intrusive. He had been in the tomb for many years, and he had never seen such a weird thing.
Huang Erlai calmed himself down, thought for a while, and finally said: "I just remembered, this is called the birth of the earth, conceived by nature, absorbing the aura of heaven and earth, born from mountains, rocks, vegetation, glaciers, etc., also called Kunlun." If you can build a tomb next to the womb on the ground, it will be a first-class treasure cave in the world. It can shade future generations and accumulate blessings for the owner of the tomb. It is rare in a thousand years. Emperors of all dynasties wanted to find it. No, I never thought that there would be such a fetish in the tomb of the county king."
After thousands of years, the birth of the earth will turn into a human form. The stone monkey is the birth of the earth. According to legend, there is a huge iceberg on the top of the Kunlun iceberg. The tree fetus, with a child's face, looks like it can't get off the ground, so it should be a young fetus.
Hearing Huang Erlai's words, Meng Ping was shocked again. He glanced at the tree fetus imitating their speech and expression, turned around and said, "If you say so, the earth-born fetus should be an excellent thing, but How does it look... a bit evil."
Those tree thorns would attack people, and almost swept him away and wounded him to death. There was an iron coffin on the top of the tree tube, and a fire unicorn was sealed in the iron coffin, and the fire unicorn could breathe fire when it came out of the coffin...
On the inner wall of the iron coffin, Cheng Xingshi found the records of the earth-born fetus and the fire unicorn.
It was written above that the Fire Qilin was obtained from a foreign land by the King of Wuwei County. It is a rare and rare beast in the world, and its blood is even pure blood.When he found the birth fetus, an expert pointed out to the king of Wuwei County, telling him to irrigate the birth fetus with the blood of unicorn, so that it will be full of energy, blood boiling, and vigorous growth. This fetus can not only shade the tomb owner and descendants , From now on, it can still suck human flesh and blood, leaving no bones left for the tomb robbers.
After the unicorn blood is taken, the body of the unicorn is sealed and placed on the earth-born fetus. The earth-born fetus survives by absorbing the spiritual energy of the heaven and the earth. Years and thousands of years have passed, and the unicorn's body will not rot for a day without turning into a human form, and the qilin will be full of energy and blood, and the corpse will be alienated. It has become the guardian beast of the tomb for more than 500 years.
The reason for using an iron coffin to seal it is firstly to seal the soul of this beast, so that it has the consciousness of protecting its territory, and secondly, it is difficult to seal this ferocious beast in a wooden coffin, if it is sealed in a wooden coffin, Afraid that it would tear the coffin and escape, it was sealed with an unbreakable iron coffin.
After reading these words, Meng Ping finally understood why the tree fetus had an evil spirit. It turned out that after tasting the blood of the unicorn, he could eat meat and eat people.
The tree fetus sticks out its tongue to lick again, this time it's not someone's ankle, but sticking out its tongue in a certain direction.
Cheng Xingshi walked in the direction it was licking, picked up the black scales that the unicorn had fallen off on the ground, and the tree tire suddenly showed a smiling face and opened its mouth.
Cheng Xingshi threw it into its mouth, and the tree tire immediately chewed and swallowed it, then opened its mouth to them again, making ahhh sounds, and would cry if it was not given to eat.
Huang Erlai and Meng Ping: "..."
The three of them fed the scales to the tree carcass, and the tree carcass was chewing happily, and Huang Erman's scalp was numb: "The big dead forest that we saw before we went down to the grave, it must have sucked it dry, right?" .”
Huang Erlai could still recall the appearance of the fine vine thorns spreading out from the carcass and their tips piercing into the soil.
The tree embryo ate up the scales, closed its eyes and fell asleep.
The three of them were a little silent. This is not what the spirit fetus of heaven and earth should look like. It is sucking up the woods, and the scales are crying to eat. This tree fetus will not grow into a monster in the future, right?
But they didn't have time to spend any more time here, and even the ground births came out. What does this mean? It means that the real tomb must be nearby.
The three began to carefully search for secret doors and mechanisms in this tomb. The fire unicorn destroyed the place, and the gorgeous murals on the wall were almost peeled off. The wall was peeling off. Cheng Xingshi found a puller on the edge of a damaged wall. ring.
He grabbed the ring, and a new underground entrance slowly appeared in the corner of the tomb, with a downward staircase. The inside was still dark and narrow, and he couldn't see anything clearly, so he couldn't confirm the situation below.
Huang Erlai gritted his teeth: "Go! I want to earn back the treasure that was destroyed in vain just now!" He hated the fire unicorn, why did he breathe fire, and burned all his treasures, let alone burn them. The gold and silver were still valuable, but the puddle was all glued to the ground, and after cooling down, the buckles couldn’t be undone, and there were some small objects like jade pendants, bracelets, fingers, etc. mixed in, and it became a big mess. mad.
The three simply lit the torches and walked into the underground passage.
Meng Ping found that there was a remnant smell of corpses here. Although the smell was very light, it must be because of too long time, but he still smelled it.
He also saw some nail scratch marks, sporadic rotten black bones, human accessories, etc. on the edge of the tunnel, and he could see that many people died in this tunnel. They have encountered this situation many times, and the dead people It should be the laborers responsible for the construction of this catacomb. After the tomb of the county king was built, they were locked in the passage, either to keep the secret of the tomb of the county king, or buried, and finally suffocated to death inside.
The more they walked in, the more stuffy they got, and even the flames were about to go out, so they stopped in the middle of the passage, waited for some air to fill in, and then continued down, so as not to cause them to have difficulty breathing.
Based on this, Huang Erlai and Meng Ping also made an instant judgment. There is a more enclosed space under the tunnel. There may be only one entrance and exit. They have to...
Huang Erlai, who was walking in the front, was trying to tie a rope to the entrance just in case, when he suddenly stepped on the ground and fell down without even having time to shout.
"Scorpion!" Meng Ping exclaimed, but there was no time to react.
Thanks to Cheng Xingshi who was close to him and made a quick move, he grabbed his hand in time, so Huang Erlai didn't fall to his death.
Cheng Xingshi pulled him up. Huang Erlai seemed to be fished out of the river. He was drenched in cold sweat. He had just walked on the verge of death. He fell on the ground and recalled the shock just now There is no danger, my feet are so soft, it seems that I will not have the strength to stand up for a while.
"Shizi, thank you for saving your life! How about this, brother Qian, who you married your wife, pays for you, how about it!" Huang Ermeng sat up with a groan, and opened his mouth about it.
Cheng Xingshi's expression was awkward for a moment, and he didn't want to talk to him at all, but Huang Erlai recognized this, and Cheng Xingshi casually agreed with him.
This tunnel was suddenly interrupted while walking, and the other end was connected by a long distance. Meng Ping carefully looked at the surrounding details. There should have been a suspension bridge in the middle for the people who built the tomb to walk back and forth. They were driven to this end of the drawbridge, and someone cut off the drawbridge, and the laborers suffocated to death on this side.
As for the other end of the tunnel, Meng Ping held up the torch and looked into the distance, it looked like a palace, resplendent and magnificent, with carved beams and painted buildings, and when he looked closely at the displays, it was no different from the rooms where living people lived.
When some dignitaries build tombs, they pay attention to death as life, that is, what kind of place he lived in before his death, and it must be restored underground after death, including all his favorite things, which must be brought underground.
Now it seems that the tomb of the county king should be like this.
Meng Ping also saw a hanging portrait in the distance.
It has been more than 500 years, and this portrait is not corrupt. I don't know what kind of treasure it is, but the person in the portrait, Meng Ping, squinted his eyes, and the distance is too far, so he really can't see the face clearly.
His bamboo basket, together with the steamed buns in it, had been reduced to ashes in the flames.
Meng Ping still had some dry food, so he broke one piece to Huang Erlai, and then handed the biggest piece to Cheng Xingshi: "Shizi, you can eat some too."
Cheng Xingshi didn't refuse, and sat down to eat something.
