In the painting.

First, there was a person with huge strange eyes on his back.

The stone box was opened in full view of everyone.

This attracted several people to go and watch.

But something strange happened. The man defined as a demon by the ancient sage suddenly took off his mask, revealing his true face. He killed the remaining four people and took away the secret hidden in the stone box.

"This……"

"How could this be?"

"According to these prophecies, not only is there a demon hiding among us, but in the end, everyone died at his hands?"

"Impossible... Let's not talk about whether the prophecy is correct or not. The person who opened the stone box has a huge pupil on his head, which doesn't fit."

After seeing the contents of the stone painting, several people's faces were filled with disbelief.

After going through so many life-and-death crises, how could he suddenly kill someone just for a secret?

Even Chen Yulou frowned tightly. He could barely explain the murals on the outermost part of the stone box, but how to explain these now?

It's impossible that he was momentarily blinded and suddenly killed someone?

After all, besides him.

Among the five people, even the strongest Partridge Whistle would not be able to kill the rest instantly.

"Could it be a plot to sow discord?"

"The so-called prophecy is actually leading us into a dead end, mutual suspicion and internal strife, or covering up the truth?"

I saw that the faces of several people were full of surprise and doubt.

Chen Yulou pondered for a moment and suddenly spoke.

If I remember correctly, the scene that the people saw when they entered this place in the original book was completely different from what they saw now.

So, even he didn't know what went wrong.

We can only speculate based on experience.

"It's not impossible..."

Hearing this, the eyes of several people who were in deep hesitation lit up.

This statement was something they had not expected.

Especially when thinking about the corpse amorphophallus before, although they only touched it for a moment, it brought them countless troubles.

Is there a possibility.

Those strange illusions and sorcery were not caused by just one corpse flower. Could it be that this stone box was also releasing some kind of power invisibly?

That's how human thinking works.

Once opened, it will radiate infinitely.

Rather than getting stuck in a dead end.

"Brother Chen... do you mean that the ancient saint is misleading us?"

Partridge Whistle frowned, obviously unable to accept it.

He finally found the burial place of his ancestors, but now he was told that everything was fake. To him, this was more painful than killing him.

Although the old foreigner didn't say anything, his flashing eyes said a lot.

"Brother, don't get excited. Chen just mentioned a possibility."

"This stone box... isolates the divine consciousness, I'm afraid it's not an ordinary object."

Chen Yulou shook his head.

How could he not understand what the two of them were thinking?

But at this moment, the divine sense covered it like rain, but it was unable to penetrate at all, just like an invisible barrier separating the inside and the outside.

Ever since refining the spiritual consciousness.

He only encountered this situation twice in total.

The first time was at Long Moye’s place in the back mountain of Malu Village. The moment the big ghost descended, he tried to spy on the other party, but found that the seemingly ordinary ball of dark fog had unimaginable powers.

If he hadn't withdrawn his spiritual consciousness in time and hidden himself.

It was almost exposed.

The second time was some time ago in the ancient city of Xiye, the jade eye in the golden plate of the altar.

Because it was contaminated by a trace of the power of the snake god, the divine sense could not see through it at all.

at the moment……

This is the third time.

It looked gray and nothing special.

But as soon as the spiritual consciousness touched the surface of the stone box, it was like rain falling on an umbrella.

"What does Brother Chen mean?"

Partridge Whistle wanted to explain, but his heart was in a mess at the moment. He stammered and finally chose the most direct way.

Hearing his question, Kunlun, Yang Fang and the old foreigner on the side all looked over.

"Keep opening the box!"

"Still open?"

These four simple words were like a thunderbolt exploding in the ears of several people.

So far, they have only opened one door and looked at a few stone paintings, which has caused them to feel restless and even suspicious.

If it continues.

Will we encounter something even more unimaginable?

"Open it. Only after the coffin is opened can we know for sure."

"At worst, we can just stop them with soldiers and cover them with earth!"

Chen Yulou raised his eyebrows and glanced at the few people.

This stone box is like a Pandora's box. Even he doesn't know what will come out of it in the end. But if he doesn't open it, the barriers and suspicions in his heart will always remain.

"it is good!"

"Just listen to Brother Chen."

Partridge Whistle gritted his teeth, and a hint of murderous intent flashed between his eyebrows.

"I come."

Before anyone could react, he stepped forward again, reached deep into the stone box, and pulled hard on the door that was less than the size of a palm.

click-

As before.

Amid the crisp sound of the machine amplifier, the small door suddenly opened.

Compared to the previous curiosity and anticipation, this time only a deep solemnity could be seen on the faces of several people.

Their bodies were tense as bows, each of them tightly grasped their weapons, and their eyes were fixed on the door.

It was just like facing that huge underground door before.

however……

After the second-floor doorway is opened.

The prophesied scene of someone rebelling and killing people did not occur.

But the atmosphere did not relax at all.

Instead, the invisible aura made it hard for everyone to breathe.

It was Chen Yulou who broke the silence first. Holding a lantern, he walked straight to the outside of the stone box, bent down, and looked into the depths of the stone box.

"Shopkeeper Chen...what is it?"

Yang Fang tightly grasped the divine whip in his hand, not realizing that his voice was trembling slightly at that moment.

"It's an ancient book..."

Chen Yulou seemed to have thought of something, his eyes flashed slightly, then he shook his head, took the book out of the stone box, and waved it gently at the few people.

"Book?"

"How could this happen? It doesn't match at all."

"Where are the gods and devils?"

Looking at the yellowed and worn parchment scroll that seemed like it would fall apart with a little force, several people were stunned. This was too different from what they had expected.

I thought that since it was so highly valued, it must at least be the treasure of the Zagrama clan.

Or it may be about the gods that appear repeatedly in stone paintings.

But what is a book?

Without rushing to answer their questions, Chen Yulou casually flipped open a page, wanting to see what was written on the ancient sheepskin book. Unfortunately...

Although the parchment was densely written with words.

The handwriting was ancient and unfamiliar.

It was a text he had never seen before.

"Brother Dao, come and take a look. This should be the ancient text of your Zagrama clan."

After confirming that it cannot be identified.

Chen Yulou gave up simply.

It was not his area of ​​expertise, so no matter how hard he looked, he could not decipher it.

Just like the dragon bone heavenly book that was found in King Xian's tomb, he finally went to Mount Kuanglu and asked Elder Chen for help, and only then did he obtain the four words "Dragon and Snake's Sting".

"it is good……"

It concerns the clan’s secret past that happened thousands of years ago.

How could Partridge Whistle dare to hesitate for a moment? He immediately put away all distracting thoughts and quickly approached.

He took the parchment scroll from him with great solemnity.

Then he looked down by the light of the lantern.

After just one look, his expression instantly became extremely excited, "Yes... that's right, it's the ancient text of my Zagrama clan."

For thousands of years.

Although the Zagrama have been on the road of migration, with tribesmen changing and time passing, they have always adhered to the words of their ancestors and tried their best to maintain unchanged.

Even when traveling around the world, they are no different from the Han people.

However, the ancient tribal language and writing are the first things that every member of the tribe needs to learn after birth.

So even though I haven't seen it for many years.

But at this moment, as soon as he glanced at it, the memories that were deeply rooted in his blood and bones suddenly surged up like a tide.

"Clan text?"

When the old foreigner heard this, he couldn't help himself.

Without caring about anything else, he immediately moved behind his brother and looked at him intently.

In just a blink of an eye, the two brothers were completely absorbed in it, their faces changing continuously, with expressions of doubt, shock, and mostly disbelief.

Seeing this, Yang Fang felt itchy in his heart.

Subconsciously, I stood on tiptoe and leaned forward to take a look.

But those ancient characters, in his opinion, were no different from scribbles. He wanted to ask what was written on them, but the two brothers were completely focused, as if they were in a trance.

"Brother Yang Fang, don't worry."

"Once you finish reading it, it will become clear to you."

Seeing this scene, Chen Yulou couldn't help but shook his head and sneered.

"Oh...too."

Having his thoughts exposed, Yang Fang couldn't help but smile awkwardly.

He has always been impatient and he really can't learn to be calm and composed even when faced with a huge crisis.

However, now that it was Shopkeeper Chen who had spoken, no matter how anxious he was, he had to suppress his temper and wait patiently.

Good thing...

It won't be long.

It only takes about half a quarter of an hour.

Partridge Whistle finally withdrew his gaze from the parchment scroll.

However, the information obtained from it seemed too much and too complicated, so that others did not explain it at the first time, but closed their eyes and rubbed their eyebrows hard with their hands.

"This……"

Seeing this, Yang Fang's expression became even weirder.

I have no idea what happened to lead this famous mountain-moving leader to end up like this.

Subconsciously, he turned his gaze to the old foreigner, hoping that he would stand up and answer his questions.

But the latter's expression was more complicated than that of his senior brother.

He stood there in a daze, unable to recover from the shock for a long time.

"No, what's going on?"

"Even if you see a ghost, at least there should be a distinction between male and female. Ghosts that died of starvation and ghosts that died of hanged bodies, right?"

Yang Fang couldn't help but muttered in a low voice.

But as soon as he said it, he regretted it and subconsciously wanted to make amends.

But he didn't have time to apologize.

Partridge Whistle, who had been silent for a long time, suddenly opened his eyes.

"I saw……"

His voice was hoarse, like a lone traveler who was extremely dehydrated and thirsty for a long time.

Hearing this, Chen Yulou's mind moved, "What did you see?"

"The existence under the ghost cave!"

thump—

It was like a sledgehammer hitting a heavy drum.

At this moment, even in Chen Yulou's eyes, which were as calm as an ancient well, a wave of shock could not be suppressed.

how come?

The ancient gods are indescribable and cannot be explored.

The Zagrama clan did not enter the depths of the ghost cave like the demons did and see the skeleton of the ancient god. How could they possibly see what was hidden under the ghost cave?

He looked at Partridge Whistle deeply.

As if trying to see something from his skinny face.

"Under the ghost cave?"

"Is it an underground demon?"

Yang Fang seemed to be thinking about something.

Although he had refused to believe it before, the Jingjue people were monsters that crawled out from the ground.

But after seeing the queen's face that looked like a snake demon.

It's like faith collapsed.

The things that I hold on to in my heart are also becoming shaken little by little.

"K."

Being interrupted by him, Partridge Whistle shook his head.

"According to what the sage left in the book, he saw three pictures before he died."

"First, after his death, his people moved eastward."

"Second, the thing that can resolve the curse is called Phoenix Gallbladder."

"third……"

Having said this, Partridge Whistle stared blankly ahead. Fortunately, the confusion did not last too long, and soon his hoarse voice sounded again slowly.

"In a dead and silent place shrouded in fog, the dead gods have another world hidden in their eyes."

A dead silent place?

A dead god?

Another world?

Chen Yulou repeated it in a low voice. At this moment, he finally understood why the ancient sage hid the third prophecy in the stone box instead of passing it down like the first two.

That was because the ancient god he foresaw was too terrifying.

It was so terrifying that even he felt hopeless and powerless.

How can we fight against gods with our mortal bodies?

Only the descendants of the tribe who find the Phoenix Gall, also known as the Zhuchen Pearl, and return here can re-enter the tomb and see the true prophecy he left behind.

As for the content of the stone painting.

Nine false and one true.

This is to prevent other people from entering this place and disrupting their clan's plans.

It is very likely that Partridge Whistle realized this point, which led to his drastic change of mind.

"So, Brother Dao, do you still want to go?"

Chen Yulou took a deep breath.

He looked at Partridge Whistle and the old foreigner with a serious gaze.

He was waiting for an answer.

When this question was asked, although Kunlun and Yang Fang beside them did not understand the meaning, they could clearly notice that the tone and atmosphere became tense and solemn.

The two of them subconsciously held their breath and concentrated, their eyes moving back and forth between the three people.

"Brother Chen is worried that I might get scared after seeing this."

"And give up?"

Partridge Whistle smiled bitterly.

Then he raised his eyes, with determination in his eyes.

"If we become afraid just because we are too powerful and give up halfway, then... wouldn't all the ancestors of our clan have died in vain?"

"Aren't all the things I've insisted on in my life now a joke?"

The calm tone seemed to be a rhetorical question, but it was actually a question to himself.

"Even if it's a dead end, Yang will never take a step back!"

"me too."

The old foreigner seemed to finally come to his senses. He took a step forward, carrying a bow on his back and a knife in his hand, and his eyes were as determined as a rock.

For thousands of years.

How many tribesmen are willing to die for an illusory prophecy.

That's all they will do.

"it is good!"

Facing the gazes of his two fellow disciples, Chen Yulou's face was filled with emotion and admiration.

The words life and death seem ordinary, but how many people in the world can really see through them?

"Manager Chen, Chief Yang, what are you talking about?"

"The more I listen, the more confused I become."

Seeing the two people ending their conversation, Yang Fang finally found an opportunity.

At this moment, his face looked even more confused than before.

Even though he had heard what was recorded on the parchment, he still didn't understand why things like Phoenix Gallbladder and the Land of Death could shock them so much.

"Brother Yang Fang, since you want to know."

"Chen might as well tell you."

"Under the ghost cave, there is an ancient god... and next, we are going to kill the god."
