The old nine gates of Yining

"See if there are secret doors here." Zhang Yining said to Zhang Qishan who had already arrived beside her. After all, there were only her, Zhang Qishan, and Qi Tiezui here. Because of the reason, she has always been a little restless, and she has always needed her to comfort her with spiritual energy, so she doesn't have the energy to investigate at all.Qi Tiezui had always been unreliable in Zhang Yining's heart, so only Zhang Qishan was left to investigate.

"Okay." Zhang Qishan ran to Zhang Yining's side just now because he was worried about Zhang Yining, and now he clearly knew that there were only the three of them in the secret room, and he would not object to Zhang Yining's words.

Qi Tiezui turned his head to one side, instead of looking at the two guys who showed their affection in public.

Zhang Yining also has time to observe this secret room carefully at this time. The secret room is about five meters long, about two meters wide, and about three meters high. sarcophagus.

And the entrance they just entered has been completely sealed, and there is not even a trace of it that can be seen from here.

Zhang Qishan took a bone in his hand and began to grope around. Many scratches could still be seen on the dry stone wall, recording the scene when these people tried their best to save their lives and escaped, but there was no way out. A desperate situation.Zhang Qishan carefully touched the stone wall, knocking on it from time to time, not missing any details, but still found nothing.Zhang Qishan reluctantly returned to Zhang Yining's side. "This place is closed, there is no trap door or anything like that."

"Look at the ground." Since the place is sealed, but the three of them have stayed here for so long but there is no lack of oxygen, then there is still a vent here. If you can't find it on the top and around it, it can only be on the ground.

"There are too many bones on the ground." Zhang Qishan looked at the ground for a long time, not knowing where to start, so he could only look at Zhang Yining again.

"Forget it." Zhang Yining didn't want to waste any more time here, so he searched with his spiritual sense and found that the stone wall at the top was the thinnest, so he directly pointed at the top of the secret room with a thunder talisman, ready to blast a way out .The purple lightning bombarded heavily on the stone wall!

There was a loud 'boom', and the whole secret room seemed to shake for a while, and the piles of skeletons placed on the ground bounced a few times, Qi Tiezui couldn't stand still, and subconsciously reached out his hand to grab Zhang Qishan for stability. Standing still, Zhang Yining raised his head and was shocked to see a hole about one meter wide punched through the stone slab in front of him!

This is a tomb, no matter how dry the stone wall is, it will still be corroded by Yin Qi and air, and Zhang Yining uses the Thunder Talisman, which is the most effective against Yin Qi, "Go up!"

Zhang Yining had no way to bring Zhang Qishan and Qi Tiezui up together, and now it was difficult for her to go up by herself, so she could only pin her hopes on Zhang Qishan.

And Zhang Qishan is worthy of being the head of the Nine Gates. He found out a rope from nowhere, a rope with a hook. Only when he was stable, he said to Zhang Yining: "Ah Ning, I will climb up first later, you wait here for me to go up and pull you up."

"Okay!" Seeing that Zhang Yining agreed, Zhang Qishan immediately climbed up the rope. Looking at Zhang Qishan's speed of climbing the rope, Zhang Yining couldn't help admiring that he was born as a tomb robber. This movement is really well prepared.

Qi Tiezui, who had been ignored by Zhang Yining and Zhang Qishan, looked at Zhang Qishan's figure resentfully, muttering, "If you have a daughter-in-law, forget about brothers." But Zhang Yining completely ignored what she said.

When Zhang Qishan came out of the secret room, he didn't observe the surrounding situation, but put his head into the hole and looked at Zhang Yining who was holding the Ye Mingzhu, "Ah Ning, tie a rope around your waist and I will pull you up." Can there be a free labor force? Naturally, Zhang Yining would not refuse to pull her up.

"What should I do when you go up?" Qi Tiezui saw that Zhang Yining had already tied the rope, but did not give him the Ye Mingzhu, so he became anxious immediately.He was afraid that Zhang Qishan, who had a wife and forgot his brother, would forget him.

Zhang Yining threw the night pearl in his hand to Qi Tiezui, but Zhang Qishan didn't answer Qi Tiezui's question, and pulled Zhang Yining up by the rope.

After going up, Zhang Yining took out another luminous pearl again, Zhang Qishan watched Zhang Yining take out the luminous pearl one by one, but the corner of his mouth twitched, and he didn't ask anything.

The moment Ye Mingzhu took it out, the place was illuminated brightly. The secret room they stayed in just now was just as she had imagined, it was a sarcophagus, and the sarcophagus was tightly against the inner wall of the stone cave, and there was a clear stone in the cave. traces of manual excavation.

Zhang Yining walked outside the cave and found no way out. There were a lot of iron chains hanging down densely outside, and there were grim white bones hanging upside down from the lower ends of the iron chains, which added a bit of horror to the place.Zhang Yining couldn't see how far the cave they were in was from the ground.

Because the lower part is shrouded in Yin Qi, there is a lot of resentment here. After a thousand years, these resentments have not only disappeared, but have become more intense. The resentment seemed to be solid, and it turned into a black mist, blocking her sight.Zhang Yining thought for a while and reached out and threw a lighting talisman down. When the fire of the lighting talisman rolled down, it lit up the half of the mountain. Zhang Yining could vaguely see an altar below, and a spiritual tablet was placed on the altar.

At this point, even if you go back into the sarcophagus, you can't get out, there is no other way out, "Buddha, there is no way out."

Although no one else was seen, the contract between Zhang Yining, Mingyue and Mingzhu was still there, which meant that they were not in danger.

While Zhang Yining was observing the terrain, Zhang Qishan had already pulled Qi Tiezui up. Hearing Zhang Yining's voice, Zhang Qishan quickly came to Zhang Yining's side, looked around, and knew that what Zhang Yining said was true, "I'll go down and have a look first! "

"Wait." Looking at Zhang Qishan's actions, Zhang Yining felt a little uneasy, and after stopping Zhang Qishan, he took out a jade pendant blessed by Buddhism and hung it around Zhang Qishan's neck. "alright."

Zhang Qishan smiled at Zhang Yining, then he spotted one of the iron chains, jumped over it, stretched out his hand and grabbed the iron chain tightly, the iron chain, which was originally motionless, suffered such an impact , and began to shake in mid-air with a 'creaking' sound, and there was an ear-piercing and unpleasant sound between frictions.

"Baye, follow up!" Zhang Yining turned his head and said something to Qi Tiezui, then followed Zhang Qishan and grabbed the iron chain and went down.

Seeing Zhang Yining coming down, Zhang Qishan just frowned and didn't say anything, but his dissatisfaction was obvious, but Zhang Yining didn't care.Then he took out a lot of luminous pearls and used his spiritual power to shoot them around. Under the blessing of spiritual power, these luminous pearls fell steadily on the surrounding stone walls.

With these night pearls, Zhang Yining and the others clearly saw the situation, this place should be man-made in the middle of the mountain.There are bones hanging from the bottom of the iron chain they grabbed just now. There are probably hundreds of them. There are two ferocious iron hooks at the bottom of these iron chains.The scene of nailing the soles of each bone made Lily think of the scene of pork sold by a butcher in the market.What's even more peculiar is that these white skeletons are quite intact, because just now Zhang Yining and Zhang Qishan drove the chain to 'creak' and shook, and even the white bones hanging below began to shake slightly.Make a 'click' sound.

Seeing the appearance of these bones, Zhang Yining knew without thinking that someone must have used magic, otherwise the bones could not have been preserved so completely after a thousand years, and the collision just now did not fall off.

☆、Chapter 44

Zhang Yining looked around, and found that the cave was round, with a semicircular top, and there were dozens of small caves on the surrounding walls, just like when they came out, presumably the others were the same as them.

After thinking about it, Zhang Yining took out a talisman and tore it up. This talisman has no effect other than making a deafening sound. Apart from hearing the sound, Zhang Qishan and Qi Tiezui didn't see the talisman that Zhang Yining took out several times before. The effect manifested by the spell.

Qi Tiezui looked at Zhang Yining's spell, except that the sound almost deafened his ears, and there was not even a single spark, so he really doubted whether the spell had failed. "Mrs. Zhang, you...is that talisman paper damp? That's why it doesn't work?" Qi Tiezui said cautiously, fearing that if he accidentally said something too serious, he would embarrass or make Zhang Yining feel sad, and cause him to suffer from Zhang Qishan. Roll eyes.

Of course Zhang Yining knew what Qi Tiezui meant, but the talisman paper she took out really only had this effect. Originally, she would make such a talisman paper just for experimentation. Use Shi here. "They must be trapped somewhere, just like us. Now that our voice is so loud, they will hear it."

"Then what if they can't break through the stone wall?" Seeing that Zhang Yining said it so easily, Qi Tiezui was complaining crazily in his heart, but there was no expression on his face.

"Oh!" Come out if you can't come out!She is not a savior, she must save everyone.

"Crackling" while Zhang Yining and Qi Tiezui were talking, the iron chain rang again, and then Er Yuehong and Ming Yue came to Zhang Yining's side one after another.

"There are still people trapped." Zhang Yining didn't care about other people's lives, but Zhang Qishan did!After the iron chain stopped shaking, he counted the number of people. The fourth child and Wu Laogou were missing, and there were two remaining Zhang Jiajun.But he had no way to save them, so he could only turn his attention to Zhang Yining, who was capable of saving them.

"Ming Shu, go and have a look." Zhang Yining would not refute Zhang Qishan in front of so many people, so Zhang Yining knew what Zhang Qishan was going to say when Zhang Qishan spoke up.

Now that almost everyone arrived, Zhang Yining didn't intend to waste any more time, and walked directly towards the altar.But after he really saw the things on the altar clearly, Zhang Yining's brows became more and more wrinkled, and he felt faintly uneasy.

The spiritual tablet on the altar is made of ten thousand year-old sacred wood. There is no name on the spiritual tablet, but a date of birth is written on it. Zhang Yining has also seen the formation on the altar. It is a sacrifice formation.With such a large expense to build such a large tomb, Zhang Yining was not surprised at all to use living people as sacrifices, but she was also surprised that she did not see the soul and body of the owner of the tomb. This was the most strange thing about Zhang Yining.

"Ah... um..." This kind of voice, which seemed to be struggling before dying, was only faintly ringing at first, and everyone thought that they had auditory hallucinations and tinnitus under the fear of fear, and they heard it wrong, but then the ground fell to the ground. A large amount of ashes began to flutter without wind. Except for the group where everyone was sitting around, the surrounding black air seemed to condense into reality. The white bones hanging upside down on everyone's heads in the black mist seemed to come alive and began to shake. When he got up, the screams were sporadic at the beginning, and then more and more.

"Come here!" Others would think it was an auditory hallucination, but Zhang Yining and Ming Shu, the moon and the moon beside her, would not think so. It was just the voices of those sacrificed people before they died. They need to leave quickly, otherwise they will be afraid. It is inseparable.

They have seen Zhang Yining's skills before, not to mention Zhang Qishan was on the sidelines. Naturally, after hearing Zhang Yining's words, everyone immediately ran to Zhang Yining's side, that is, on the altar, including the fourth child and Wu who had just been rescued by Mingshu. Old dog them.

"Wuuuuuh..." Weeping and painful moans came, and the white bones hanging on the iron chain began to shake violently.Zhang Yining felt very headache when she saw the yin and resentment in the cave, her consciousness was greatly restricted here, and with so many people with her, she didn't know if she could go out safely.

"Help me..." Zhang Yining recognized the voice of the Zhang family army farthest away from her, but Zhang Yining did not speak.

"Come here!" Adjutant Zhang anxiously shouted at Zhang Jiajun who was standing there motionless.

"Don't shout, it's useless." Zhang Yining has never met a dead person since he came to this world, and now the first dead person he saw in this world was killed by a grieving ghost. In addition, she was pregnant. I feel a little uncomfortable. "We all stand on this altar, and no one is allowed to leave. Mingzhu and Mingshu check to see if there is an exit on the altar."

Everyone was dissatisfied when they heard Zhang Yining's words, but seeing Zhang Yining's stern look, they couldn't leave the altar anyway. Zhang Yining refused to allow Zhang Jiajun to help him, so how could Adjutant Zhang, who was born and died with Zhang Jiajun, have no complaints.

Only Zhang Qishan didn't know why Zhang Yining did this, but he still believed in Zhang Yining, but his eyes were still extremely complicated.

But at the next moment, that Zhang Jiajun's face turned blue at first, and then darkened again. Gradually, under the eyes of everyone in shock, his body seemed to be lifted up by several invisible big men. First, he floated directly off the ground in mid-air, and then at an extremely slow speed, he started to face down and his feet up. During this period, Zhang Jiajun's expression was blank, as if his real expression had been hidden under a piece of skin. Suddenly it became flushed, and his eyeballs also began to become bloodshot quickly, but his expression was strangely indifferent, his skin was smooth, red and shiny, as if waxed with oil, I don't know if it was because of the bloodshotness.

I don't know when a rusty iron hook appeared on the top of his head and hooked into the soles of his feet. The thick military boots were pierced in an instant. He was hung upside down on the ground like a pig waiting to be slaughtered. on the shelf, waiting to be disembowelled.

But his expression was very calm, almost a little indifferent. When the iron hook dug into the sole of his foot, the sound of flesh being nailed and torn rang in everyone's ears, and the dark red blood on the tip of the iron hook dripped down drop by drop. Everyone looked as if they felt pain in the soles of their feet, but he didn't seem to feel the pain. He neither yelled nor struggled desperately, but let out painful and helpless cries from his mouth.

It would be great if there was a little bit of pain on his expression, but his calmness coupled with this painful cry made people feel as if the person who was hanging upside down in front of him was just a dummy who could speak. People feel a little creepy.

"Hey, what's going on here?" Master Xie Jiu had stayed abroad, and although he had seen zongzi, he still didn't believe in ghosts, but now that the facts were happening before their eyes, he couldn't help but believe.But he was very scared in his heart, but Xie Jiuye was not the only one who was afraid, and everyone else was the same.The black-backed sixth son has been holding the knife on his back at some point, and Wu Laogou even screamed desperately for his beloved dog to scratch and hurt.

All this happened in a blink of an eye, and it was only because of fear that the process of Zhang Jiajun being hung upside down seemed to be prolonged. Like a white skeleton hanging upside down, it swayed gently in the air, and the screams around seemed to become louder and harsher. Everyone present couldn't help but swallow their saliva in fright. Someone forcibly snapped it off, caught it on both sides of his cheeks and dropped it, his ten fingers broke a big hole for no reason, blood began to drip down his ten fingers, 'tick-tick-tick'.

The thick bloody smell came from the surroundings, the surrounding black mist seemed to be more explosive, and the screams near the ears became louder.A large puddle of blood quickly dripped from the ground of the person who was hung up, and splashed everywhere. The blood began to flow slowly in all directions like a stream, like snakes winding towards the altar. The direction flowed over.

"You can't stay here for long!" Seeing such a scene, Zhang Yining couldn't help laughing bitterly in her heart. It was because she underestimated the danger here, and it was because she didn't expect that people in the Taoist sect would use such cruel means to protect that thing. "Mingzhu picks up that spiritual bit and tries."

Mingzhu and Mingshu have searched all the moving things on the altar, except for the spiritual tablet.When Mingzhu picked up the spirit tablet, a hole appeared in the middle of the altar, and Qi Tiezui, who was still holding the Yemingzhu in his hand, felt that he moved closer. "There is a road down there."

Although Qi Tiezui said that there is a way, everyone's eyes were on Zhang Yining, "Let's go!" After speaking, Zhang Yining took the lead towards the stairs in the cave, followed by Zhang Qishan.

☆、Chapter 45

After everyone entered the cave, Mingzhu walked at the end and sealed the cave entrance. The piercing cries and painful groans were completely isolated at the moment the cave entrance was sealed.

Zhang Yining carefully observed the stairs, but found nothing wrong, "Take a break and eat something, we will continue walking."

Since arriving at this ancient tomb, Zhang Yining hadn't entered the space for several days, and hadn't taken the natural treasures with high aura content to replenish aura.Although the aura here is relatively sufficient, it still cannot meet the needs of the fetus in her womb.

"Can't we go back?" Huo Sanniang hesitated for a while and walked in front of Zhang Yining, asking the question they all wanted to know.

"The way we came from has been completely sealed off. It is impossible to go back. Now we can only go to the center of the tomb to find a way out." This ancient tomb is a dead place, there is no way out, Zhang Yining is the first She knew it when she saw the terrain of the ancient tomb, but she didn't say it.

"Why?" Huo Sanniang asked a little unwillingly.Although they were horrific and thrilling all the way before the cave just now, no one was killed, but they experienced such a terrifying scene in that cave just now, thinking about it now makes her feel cold all over.

"The stone room above has no way out, and what we saw in that stone room was a very ancient sacrifice. The creatures in the sacrifice had suffered inhuman torture before they died. Their resentment was very strong. Even after thousands of years, it still seems to be the essence. And when you meet strangers, those grievances will revive, and they will kill all strangers they see, and we can only die when we go up." Since someone asked , Zhang Yining doesn't mind explaining.

"Then we can only go forward?" Xie Jiuye's complexion was very bad, and he didn't even want the gentle mask he had been wearing all along.

"I guessed wrong this time. I didn't expect that people in the Taoist sect would use the owner of the tomb to plant such a vicious formation in the tomb." undying heart.That's why the person who laid the tomb made full use of it.

"Using the owner of the tomb?" Er Yuehong deserved to be a careful master, she grasped the main point of Zhang Yining's words at once.

"Hmm! The formation above used to nourish the soul of the tomb owner with resentment and aura, but there is no soul of the tomb owner on it." Zhang Yining paused at this point, she was afraid that if she continued speaking, she would make these things People are scared to death.

"Where's the tomb owner's body?" Er Yuehong was sensitive to discover that Zhang Yining only mentioned the tomb owner's soul, but not the body.

"Are you sure you want to know?" Zhang Yining looked at everyone with complicated eyes.

"Let's talk! We can accept it." Zhang Qishan smiled gently at Zhang Yining, the situation is already very bad, what could be worse.

"If I guess correctly, the other end of this passage is the tomb, which is where the owner's body is. It is very likely that what we see will not be bones, but zombies." Anyway, it was what they wanted her to say, so she I don't mind telling them her guess.

"Zombie? Are they also zongzi?" This era is not the era where information is flying all over the sky like 100 years later, and Jiumen is a family of tomb robbers, and they still know a lot about the things in the tomb, but what they know is strictly low-level Zombies or something that turns into a corpse, which is what they call zongzi.And they don't understand real zombies.

"No. If we encounter high-level zombies, we will have no way to survive." They may not be able to survive, and she can still survive, but Zhang Yining will not foolishly tell everyone.

After resting for a while, everyone ate something and continued to walk, but the middle stairs became narrower as they went down, and the eyes couldn't see the end, and a chilly air hit the bones, and the tunnel was dark One piece, like a monster with its mouth wide open, everyone slowly descended to the bottom of the well, as if walking into the monster's mouth and throwing themselves into a trap, everyone felt a big stone in their hearts.

Remembering what Zhang Yining said before that there were zombies down there, the group of people subconsciously lowered their steps as they went down to the bottom of the well, and all of them kept their breath focused, not even daring to take a big breath.

The bottom of the well is extremely deep from the ground, and the further you go down, the more obvious the feeling of dampness and coldness becomes. Every breath of air carries a thick musty dampness. Maybe this is in the mountainside, and it is buried deep in Underground, so the ground is slightly wet, and sometimes the feet are slightly slippery when stepping on it. Everyone walked very carefully. Many dense small drops of water kept leaking from the top of the well about [-] cm above their heads, and then gathered into a ball and fell,' "Tick-tick-tock", sometimes it falls on the people, and sometimes it falls on the ground, making a sound that makes people extremely bored and helpless.

Under such circumstances, I don’t know how deep the well is, but no one dares to ask. The turtle has been holding its breath for a long time. Gradually getting older, Zhang Yining said lightly:

"Here we are." Everyone was tense, and when they heard the voice suddenly speaking, Leng might as well tremble.

Zhang Qishan supported Zhang Yining and walked in the front, followed by Mingyue and Mingzhu, those caught in the middle didn't know what was going on ahead, and felt uneasy in their hearts, and the one who walked at the end was still Mingshu

Zhang Yining was always holding the Ye Mingzhu in his hand, the stairs in the well were only about one meter high from the exit, Zhang Yining raised his legs again and walked slowly to the exit.But even if Zhang Yining was holding the night pearl in his hand at the moment, it didn't illuminate much. In desperation, Zhang Yining had no choice but to take out a fire dragon talisman and tear it up.

The fire light illuminated the entire bottom of the passage, Zhang Yining only took one look, and his heart sank.

The bottom is about [-] square meters wide, and it is in the shape of a gossip plate. Zhang Yining's eyesight is extraordinary at this moment, and she can see the ground above the ground at a glance. Even after a thousand years, the surface of the stone chamber has decayed, but she can still see the ground clearly It was cut out into the shape of a gossip plate, surrounded by densely packed spells, and the ground is full of ancient characters and spells from ancient times. corpse.

There were eight in total. None of these corpses had rotted, and they were still very well preserved. As far as Zhang Yining knew, these corpses could no longer be called corpses, but zombies, or green corpses.

No wonder the layout of this place is so large, there are snakes guarding the gate before entering the tomb, and the number of dead people buried after entering the tomb is unimaginable, first the sacrificial formation above, and then the green corpses under the ground.Not to mention the fact that these corpses seemed to be worshiping red jade coffins in the middle, as if they were guarding it. Zhang Yining had only heard of this kind of scene, but had never seen it with his own eyes.

In ancient times, most people were buried in black coffins. There were only two cases where red coffins were buried in the soil. One was for the emperor’s relatives, and the other was for a murderous creature. , The layout of this place is so large, the things in the coffin are definitely higher than the existence of the green corpse, her premonition is indeed correct.The only good thing is that they didn't disturb these zombies.

"It's a big trouble." Zhang Yining smiled wryly, but there was nothing he could do.Although she has many good things, she is sure to kill these zombies, but the premise is that she is not pregnant, and now it is impossible for her to kill these zombies and go out smoothly.
