The years of reselling the haunted house

As I said that, I told Qu Kangcheng and Liang Yue the story that I seemed to see the blood jade turned into a red centipede while fishing for fire silkworms and rescued me.

Qu Kangcheng thought for a while and said, "Li Yang. I suddenly remembered something. Do you still remember the Kowloon guards I mentioned?"

"Nine Dragons Guards? You mean, the predecessors of these eight zombies are the Nine Dragons Guards? But why are there only eight of them?" I questioned.

Qu Kangcheng walked quickly to the corpses of the zombies, took off their hats, and touched the skulls with his hands.

After touching the three skulls, Qu Kangcheng said: "Sure enough, they are all nine-aperture exquisite bones. It seems that they are very picky in picking people. All the people who enter the underground palace must have nine-aperture exquisite bones. I just thought After thinking about it, maybe the nine dragon guards, besides these eight, should be the descendant of the royal family himself."

"The descendant of the royal family himself? So, he is protecting himself?" Liang Yue asked.

Qu Kangcheng shook his head: "Nine dragon guards must be nine people, but the guards may not be the descendants of the royal family. Maybe our previous judgment was wrong. Li Yang's experience this time illustrates this point. We all saw the blood jade, At that time, it was transformed by a scarlet centipede. Although it sounds a little fantasy, I guess that centipede has at least a certain relationship with the descendant of the royal family..."

I followed Qu Kangcheng's train of thought for a while, and said, "Then I think I've figured out the general situation. Let's imagine that the scarlet centipede is the remnant soul or the remnant soul of the descendant of the royal family. This The remnant soul or remnant soul has been among the blood jade, and I just got this blood jade, and this blood jade recognizes me as the master. And the descendant of the royal family is also one of the nine dragon guards, and is the leader of the nine dragon guards. So Just now, these remnants of the Nine Dragons guards will obey my instructions. In fact, they are not listening to me, but to the remnants of the descendants of the royal family in this blood jade. Now the Nine Dragons guards have just gathered, this little blood How many secrets are hidden in the jade..."

Holding the blood jade, I couldn't help feeling deeply moved.

Chapter 1084 Eight Corpse Teeth

Qu Kangcheng nodded and said: "That's right, it should be like this. I have to congratulate you here, Li Yang, you got a treasure. You will always wear this blood jade in the future. Raw, this blood jade is quite spiritual, if you can communicate with this blood jade, you can let the Nine Dragons guards work for you."

Liang Yuexi expressed his expression: "Ah, Lao Qu, does that mean that if Li Yang encounters danger in the future, he can release the Jiulong guards and ask them to help?"

Qu Kangcheng said: "Of course. Didn't you just see that the Kowloon guards have helped us kill the jackal-faced bat? It's just that it will take a long time for them to serve willingly. People raise jade, jade raises it." Man, I don't know how long this process will take."

I looked at the blood jade, could it be that this jade is really as magical as Lao Qu said?

At this time, I can't think too much, no matter what, this blood jade is a life-saving grace for me, so I have to keep it well no matter what.

Thinking of this, I carefully put away the blood jade again.

Qu Kangcheng continued to analyze: "If the Nine Dragons guards are not guarding the descendants of the royal family, it means that there are still things they guard in the underground palace. Maybe that is the most suitable place for us to explore the underground palace this time."

I nodded: "After searching for so long, I still haven't found any clues about where Fatty and Ma Su are. I'm very anxious now, and I have to leave here immediately."

The longer I haven't heard from them, the more worried I feel.As the saying goes, the night is long and the dreams are many, and the late is the change. They have been out of our sight for too long.Especially our side has experienced so many dangers, I believe that if they are still alive, they are destined to be in peace.

Liang Yue comforted me and said, "Don't worry. Maybe it's a good thing that we didn't find them... It means that they have been active in this underground palace..."

I understand what Liang Yue means. In this underground palace, anything can happen.If they were found at this time, maybe all they found were...their bodies.If they are not found, there is still hope.

Liang Yue looked at the corpses of zombies and bats lying on the ground, and said, "Then what about these things?"

I saw that the death of those bats was miserable. Every bat grinned, and it was painful to see when it died.It's hard to imagine that the jackal-faced bat, which is so vicious to us, would be wiped out by the Kowloon guards so easily, even the Bat King was not spared.

You must know that when we go down to this underground palace, the first fatal threat we encounter is these jackal-faced bats.Da Zhuang and Er Zhuang even died because of these jackal-faced bats, and I was also embarrassed by them. If Liang Yue hadn't rescued me with a net when I came down for the first time, I might be similar to Da Zhuang Er Zhuang and the others up.

And now that the Bat King was also killed, the jackal-faced bats in the underground palace should no longer pose any threat.For us, the Nine Dragons Guards helped us remove an obstacle, and even completely removed the hidden dangers that had been buried in our hearts.

I looked at the corpses on the ground and shook my head: "We have no time and no place to deal with them. It stands to reason that we should put the bodies of these Nine Dragon guards back into the Nine Dragon sarcophagus. But once Time is running out, and there are still a lot of fire silkworms in the Kowloon sarcophagus, so I don't want to cause more trouble. I can only arrange their corpses neatly and put them here."

The three of us worked together to clean up the venue a bit, and divided the bodies of the eight Kowloon guards into two rows and laid them on the ground.

When I placed these corpses separately, I found that the teeth in their mouths had turned into beasts, and I couldn't help but feel moved.

Of the two corpse teeth of me and the fat man, one was taken away by the little mason, and the other I stuffed into his mouth to save Meng Daqing.When I saw him later, I forgot to ask for it back from him.The role of the zombie's fangs in suppressing Yang Qi is obvious, and we need such a thing very much.

So I asked Liang Yue to help, and used a dagger to pry out a beast-like tooth in each zombie's mouth.After these zombies lost their fighting power, their teeth became very loose. We got eight corpse teeth with almost no effort.I took all eight corpse teeth with me, bowed and apologized to those corpses: "I'm sorry, you guys saved me. I took some of your teeth to remember you better. I hope you don't Blame me."

After we finished our work, we quickly left here and returned to the main passage.

This time we didn't need Qu Kangcheng to guide us, we all knew which direction to go.It's just that I found that Lao Qu's body has been extremely worn out after a lot of tossing. Every few steps he takes, he staggers a few times.It was obvious that he was extremely tired.

In fact, let alone Qu Kangcheng, I myself felt that my legs were sore and weak, and it was better when I walked, but as long as I stopped for a while, I would tremble.

I secretly estimated that it would have been at least twelve hours since we went down to the crypt.

Twelve hours are 24 hours, but there is no night or day here, so we have no concept of time and day and night.After coming in, we have experienced so many things, both mentally and physically, we have endured great devastation.

Although Liang Yue still looks very energetic and walks sonorously, I guess she is also trying to support herself.Because at this time, no one will stop.I just hope that I can find Lao Ma and the others as soon as possible, so that we can have a chance to breathe.

This time we have encountered no other obstacles and have been moving smoothly.It's just that the passage under our feet, after walking a short distance, forks in the road began to appear frequently.

And the channel also began to appear a zigzag route.Whenever he reached a fork in the road or needed to decide which direction to go, Qu Kangcheng would stop and rely on the compass in his hand and the topographic map to judge the direction.

Under Qu Kangcheng's guidance, we twisted and turned for a while, and walked out without knowing the distance.In short, if I turn around and go back, I feel that I will never be able to get out of this underground palace.

Only then did it show how important the topographical map restored by Lao Qu was.At the same time, I was also thinking that we have old songs and topographical maps and have not yet fully found the main hall of the underground palace.Ma Di and the others didn't know the way, so where did they go now?

We walked out for about two hours with our heads sullen, and I saw that Lao Qu was already panting a lot in front.

Chapter 1085 Special Symbols

My own legs seemed to be filled with lead, and Liang Yue's forehead was also covered with sweat.

I couldn't help but greeted Qu Kangcheng: "I said Lao Qu, let's have some dry food after a break, okay? If we go on like this, we will die of exhaustion..."

Unexpectedly, as soon as Qu Kangcheng heard my words, he sat down on the ground without saying a word, gasping for breath, and said: "You...you boy, why didn't you say it earlier, I'm tired... I'm exhausted to death... "

Liang Yue also stared at me and said, "That's right, why did you say you want to rest?"

I grinned, looked at Lao Qu and Liang Yue, and said dumbfoundedly: "I said, why are you all pointing at me? Isn't I also insisting on it? Lao Qu is the captain and doesn't speak. How dare I say stop?" rest?"

Qu Kangcheng blinked his eyes: "If you don't say that I have forgotten that I am the captain, I am a bullshit captain? I am a burden myself, I have the nerve to stop."

I waved my hand: "Forget it, don't discuss this. Hurry up and eat something, and rest for a while before leaving. The area of ​​the underground palace is also too large. How come you haven't reached the place after walking for so long? And I feel that I have been Walking through the passage. Isn’t this place called the underground palace, and I haven’t seen any palaces, Lao Qu, is the road you lead right?”

Liang Yue untied her backpack, took out dry food and water, and distributed them to Qu Kangcheng and me.

I lit a candle and stood it on the ground.

Qu Kangcheng took a piece of bread, took a bite, pointed to the topographic map and said, "I walked according to the topographic map, so it should be correct. There are two forks ahead and we should reach the side hall."

I also took a mouthful of dry food and nodded: "Okay, as long as you think it's right. I won't read the map, and I can't understand it."

Qu Kangcheng added: "However, there is one point that I don't quite understand..."

Hearing what he said, Liang Yue and I also leaned over and looked at the map.

Qu Kangcheng pointed to a certain place on the map and said: "We took a shortcut to go to the main hall. But I found that if we want to go to the main hall, we must pass through the auxiliary hall. Between the main hall and the auxiliary hall, look at this what is..."

We all looked towards where Qu Kangcheng pointed, and saw that on the map, a main hall and two auxiliary halls were clearly marked.It's just that it's just a topographic map, similar to a construction drawing, so it doesn't look very vivid, and we can't understand it without anyone explaining it.

However, after Qu Kangcheng's explanation, the three halls appeared clearly before his eyes.

Inside the hall is also a complicated construction circuit diagram, which looks disorganized.What Qu Kangcheng pointed at was a line between the main hall and the two side halls, and there were several circles similar to the size of a period under that line.

I was taken aback: "Old Qu, didn't you draw this line? Why did you ask about us instead?"

Qu Kangcheng smiled wryly and said: "It's true that I drew it, and I also restored it from the original picture. How would I know what it is? First of all, it is definitely not an ordinary passage. It was drawn like this. In addition, I have studied this ancient topographic map and construction drawing for many years, and I also understand the symbols used in some construction drawings. I have never seen what a few small circles are under this line. Pass."

Liang Yue looked at it and said, "Maybe there are two lines drawn carelessly on that old picture, and it doesn't mean anything. Besides, if we want to know what's going on, let's go to the main hall to see it." gone?"

Qu Kangcheng nodded and said: "That's what I said. I'm not afraid that if something happens, I can take precautions. Since you can't guess it, let's take a break and continue to take a look."

We nodded in agreement, ate some dry food, drank some water, and continued to move forward.

According to Qu Kangcheng's guidance, we bypassed two more forks.

To be honest, at this time I have completely lost my way, and I have no idea where I am.I don't know the exact direction, and I don't know whether the location is on the ground or underground, because the passage along the way is not flat, sometimes it winds down, and sometimes it goes up a long distance like climbing a slope.

Therefore, our experience in exploring the underground palace here is still insufficient. Otherwise, why would we have to bring a survey table that can tell the azimuth and altitude.In fact, I was worrying too much about this. Both Ma Di and Qu Kangcheng had this kind of thing, but they didn't think it was a problem, so they didn't say it.

We turned from the rest place to the second fork, and the chest tightness and shortness of breath caused by the relatively thin air and the relatively small space were greatly relieved.

I had a hunch that I might find something.

Sure enough, we poked our heads out of the passage, and saw a scene that was astonishing and breathtaking.

The passage we were walking in turned out to be a hole at the end.

Outside the cave entrance is another world with infinite space.

An imposing and majestic underground palace appeared before our eyes.

It's just that this palace doesn't look as resplendent as the palace on the ground. The materials used in this underground palace are stones, which look grey.But it didn't affect the majesty of the underground palace at all.

It may be due to the relatively large space here, so we feel much more transparent than in the passage.Although it should be closed here too.

On the eaves of the underground palace, there are many oil lamps of that kind.At first glance, there are at least hundreds of thousands of lamps.I believe the principle of these oil lamps is the same as those in the corridor.

Originally, this place was a completely enclosed space, but as the air flowed in, these oil lamps burned and kept lighting the place.

Although thousands of oil lamps are not enough to make the place brightly lit, they can provide us with enough illumination after our eyes gradually adapt to this light.

As Qu Kangcheng said, this underground palace is divided into a main hall and two auxiliary halls.It's just that we didn't expect that after we came out of the cave, we saw three halls appearing all at once.

And standing in our position, we can only see the overall outline of the underground palace and some features outside.The specific details are not clear due to the distance.

After seeing such a majestic underground palace, Qu Kangcheng was already tongue-tied and speechless for a long time.

I saw that this old guy wouldn't be as crazy as Fan Jinzhongju, would he?

I quickly patted him on the back: "Old Qu, are you okay?"

Qu Kangcheng seemed to be in a dream, and he woke up like a dream after being slapped by me: "Ah? Ah... Li Yang, did you see it? Liang Yue, did you see it? This...the underground palace..."

Chapter 1086

I nodded: "We are not blind, of course we saw it."

"It's so spectacular, so incredible... I finally found the underground palace, I finally found it..."

Qu Kangcheng yelled a few words, couldn't hold back the excitement in his heart, and even ran out from where we were standing, and went straight to the underground palace.

I was startled and completely defenseless.You must know that this old guy has traveled for such a long time, and he has encountered so many dangers.Although all the dangers were saved in the end, his old bones were tossed to pieces.

Before discovering the underground palace, Liang Yue and I both regretted not bringing a stretcher down so we could carry him away.

But after the old man discovered the underground palace, he ran so fast, he rushed out like a [-]-meter sprint.

Liang Yue and I were also taken aback, then we rushed out, trying our best to catch up with him.I pulled him desperately, the old man was so strong that I almost missed him.

"Why are you dragging me? I'm going to the underground palace, let me go..."

Qu Kangcheng struggled desperately.

"I'm talking about Old Qu, Old Qu... Calm down, no one is stopping you from going to the underground palace, but the situation here is complicated, we have to observe it for a while at least. You are a little impulsive in this way..."

I kept explaining to Qu Kangcheng.

After my persuasion, Qu Kangcheng's excitement gradually eased down.

He waved his hand, a little embarrassed, and said: "Li Yang, let me go, I know, I was too excited just now, a little impulsive."

I let go of the hand holding him, and together with him, we re-observed the underground palace in the distance.

My worry is not unreasonable. We have encountered so many strange and bizarre incidents on the way to the underground palace. Who can guarantee that this mysterious and secluded underground palace is safe?

The three of us got together, discussed briefly, and decided to go in from the side hall next to it.Because we found that from the angle we saw in that side nave, its gate was open.

From where we were, we walked straight ahead while observing the surrounding situation.We stopped and went, and slowly reached the front of the side hall.

If we say that from a distance, we can see the majesty and majesty of this underground palace, but when we get close, it gives us the most direct feeling of eerie.

Just imagine, the secluded underground palace, with countless dots of light shining on the eaves, the entire underground palace is empty, and there is no sound coming out.

The little lights cast the shadows of the three of us on the ground, like three ghosts.

And because the space here is relatively large, there are gusts of cold wind coming from all directions, blowing on the body, making it numb and icy.

Liang Yue and I each lit a torch, one for warmth and the other for courage.In this kind of place, the firelight tends to add some courage to people.

Even so, the three of us couldn't bear it any longer. As soon as we stopped here, the chills in our bodies never stopped.

I don't know why this place is so gloomy and cold, even the light of the torch seems to be suppressed and unable to burn.

I took off my backpack and looked inside for something to keep out the cold, and found two bottles.

I suddenly remembered that the old village chief Meng Baolu once poured a bowl of Zhuangxing wine for each of us when we went down to the crypt.The wine is full of fragrance, no doubt it is a good wine.At that time, I asked him to pack two bottles for us and bring them down. At that time, I thought maybe it would be useful when I came down.

Who knew that it was only here that I dug it out of the bag.

I was ecstatic to see that wine.Isn't it the right time to find out?

"Come here, drink some of this..." I hastily unscrewed the bottle, poured out the wine from the cap, and handed it to the two of them.

The two of them were also very cold, and when they saw the wine, they both held the bottle caps and drank it separately.

I took a few sips from the bottle myself.At this time, this wine is really a good medicine to keep out the cold, better than any clothes.

After a few sips of wine, everything from the esophagus to the stomach is warm.The chill on his body subsided immediately.
