Tomb Robber: I, Chen Yulou, am dedicated to cultivating immortality!

Chapter 372: Dragons and Snakes Walking on the Earth's Veins

Panshepo and Dragon King Temple.

Iron-headed Dragon King, fortune teller?

The five people at the table keenly noticed these key words from the shopkeeper's words, so how could they not guess the mystery behind them?

That fortune teller is probably Jin Suanpan.

The purpose of building the temple is definitely not to relieve any severe drought disaster.

Otherwise, why is Gulan County still so barren after so many years? Along the way, there are almost no crops to be seen in the fields.

Colleagues understand each other best.

People who make a living by robbing tombs have seen this kind of tactics many times.

However, in this day and age, building tombs and houses to avoid being seen is considered to be extremely conservative and law-abiding.

A real tomb robber.

Never have any scruples.

Just like the Xiangling School, they used oxen and horses to pull the things, big shovels and hoes, and used medicine, stones and cannons, using every possible means.

In such a chaotic world where people can barely survive, why would anyone care about so many things?

To be honest, the guy who blew up the Dongling Mausoleum a few years ago was the real ruthless one. Luo Laowai formed an engineering battalion and dug coffins and graves everywhere around Xiangyin. In fact, he was following his way.

And if this person is replaced by Jin Suanpan.

It seems that everything can be explained.

Among the four factions, the Tomb Raiders has the most and strictest rules.

Veterans like Jin Suanpan value these things more than their lives.

Otherwise, if it was just moving mountains and removing hills, it wouldn't be so troublesome. The place called Longling Panshepo is deserted. Except for some people who herd sheep and horses, you can't see even a single person there on weekdays.

Just shovel it directly.

Once you enter the underground palace, the right thing to do is to steal gold.

As for life and death, it is determined by fate and God. Why think so much about it? Aren't you just asking for trouble?

"It has to be during the day. We have nothing to do anyway, so it would be better to go tomorrow. Besides, we can't do anything in the dark."

Chen Yulou smiled as a response.

"That is."

The shopkeeper nodded in agreement.

He actually had something else to say.

That damn place was eerie even in the daytime. Before the temple was built, he was forced by his mother to go there to burn incense. On the way back, he muttered several times.

He doesn't understand either.

What a nice Dragon King Temple.

Why build it in such a broken ravine?

"By the way, what happened to the temple after it was built?"

Chen Yulou took a sip of his wine and continued to ask.

"What else can it be? It was okay in the first two years. The incense wasn't very popular, but at least there were people going there every few days. In the past few years... oh, it's almost collapsed."

The shopkeeper curled his lips.

In fact, all faith in this world comes down to one word: spirit.

If it is truly miraculous, people would go there even if the temple is built deep in the mountains and travel through mountains and rivers. But if it has nothing to do with miraculous, people would go there once, but who would go there a second time?

The fortune teller spoke very seriously before building the temple.

Whatever you want, as long as the Dragon King Temple is built.

It will naturally rain at that time, relieving the severe drought in Gulan County.

But damn... the crops in the fields couldn’t even grow, and there was no rain from the sky or the Dragon King sending down rain.

"Where is the fortune teller?"

Yang Fang's heart began to pound when he heard this. He took several deep breaths and finally managed to suppress his emotions. However, the twitching of his eyes revealed his inner feelings completely.

Fortunately, the shopkeeper was still indignant and did not notice anything strange about him.

"no one knows."

"In the first one or two years, I could still see him in the temple, but after that, I never saw him again."

The shopkeeper shook his head. "Maybe he ran away because he was too embarrassed to stay any longer?"

Hear the words.

Yang Fang's face suddenly turned ugly.

However, he also understood that ignorance is not a crime, and the shopkeeper in front of him was not aware of what had happened, it was just an unintentional mistake.

not to mention.

This was indeed an unkind thing done by the master, and it is no wonder that people in Gulan County have many complaints about him.

In addition, the shopkeeper's words undoubtedly further confirmed his guess.

Yang Fang didn't have the energy to argue with him.

He just picked up the wine listlessly and drank it.

Seeing this, Chen Yulou changed the subject and asked about the local customs and practices. The shopkeeper didn't have much business, and seeing that they didn't look like bad people, he naturally spoke happily.

The meal took a full half hour.

When walking out of the store.

It was completely dark outside, and you couldn't see your hand in front of you.

The county town was dotted with lights, and it was desolate and lonely. Even if there were people there occasionally, they were in a hurry, braving the severe cold to rush home.

"Brother Chen, what about us?"

Partridge Whistle led the horse, glanced around, and asked softly.

"Not in a hurry."

"Let's find a place to stay tonight."

Chen Yulou naturally understood what he meant, which was nothing more than the next plan.

As he spoke, he glanced at Yang Fang behind him.

Afraid he might misunderstand.

"Brother Yang Fang, we are already here, so one night is not a big deal."

"According to what we have learned along the way, the terrain over there is dangerous and accidents are more likely to happen at night. We have been traveling for several days. What do you think?"

"Then... just listen to Shopkeeper Chen."

Yang Fang was still in a daze.

When I heard the question, I replied subconsciously.

At this point, the possibility that the master is still alive is actually very slim.

The big tomb under Longling is probably extremely evil.

That's why he planned for several years before taking action, and even went so far as to make such a big fuss, with fortune-telling and temple building, to cover up his actions.

The reason is nothing more than.

It is extremely difficult and time-consuming to steal the huge treasure below.

It won't be accomplished in a short time.

So from the moment he started building the temple, he was ready to play the long game.

But it has disappeared for so many years.

One can imagine what the outcome will be.

only……

He just hasn't been willing to accept it.

"Then take a rest for a night, get yourself refreshed, and set off early tomorrow morning."

See he agrees.

Chen Yulou nodded.

The group led the horses through the long street, and after a while, they finally found a brightly lit restaurant. After instructing the waiter to take the horses away and feed them well, they returned to their rooms.

They have profound cultivation, so staying up for a few more nights is not a problem for them.

but……

The horse can no longer run.

He could sense the fatigue in Bai Long's eyes.

Starting from the ancient city of Hanzhong, they traveled for five or six days without sleep. Even if one had great endurance or was born with extraordinary abilities, one could not withstand such a long-distance march.

Instead of being tired and exhausted, he hurriedly gave up the fight.

It’s better to rest up first.

After all, Yang Fang and the others didn't know how terrifying the Longling Labyrinth was, but he knew it very well.

Ghost tomb, hanging soul ladder, and black turtle with a human face.

Even though it is not as dangerous as the Kunlun Palace, it is still one of the top ones among the fifteen ancient tombs in Ghost Blows Out the Light.

Especially the Hanging Soul Ladder. For those who don’t understand the Five Elements, entering there is basically a dead end.

As for the human-faced spider, it is even more ferocious and unpredictable.

That's what the golden abacus is.

He passed the Ghost Tomb and cracked the Hanging Soul Ladder, but was ultimately killed by those evil creatures.

If the three brothers joined forces.

With dust and iron grinding heads to sweep the formation, there will naturally be a way to survive.

It’s a pity that they all ignored Mr. Zhang’s last words.

Return to the room.

Chen Yulou was not in a hurry to stay and rest.

Instead, I took a hot shower first.

I had been traveling so fast these days that I smelled really bad. After changing my clothes, I opened a window, picked up a pot of wine and drank it slowly.

Look across the ancient city under the night.

My thoughts were going over everything that had happened in the past few days.

Climb mountains to visit immortals, exchange ideas on the snowy plateau, and visit Xuande Cave Heaven on Baxian Terrace...

Every incident and scene, like movie scenes, appeared in his mind one by one.

Looking back now, even he felt that the thought he had at the foot of Mount Zhongnan that day could definitely be called a flash of inspiration.

If you are in a hurry.

What you miss is not just the snow scenery on the mountain.

It's a great opportunity.

His mind moved.

In an instant, a few more things appeared in front of him, including two cushions and a bronze incense burner.

Chen Yulou grabbed out of thin air.

A cushion fell under him.

Others sat cross-legged.

The other one was put back into the cave deep in the sea of ​​qi.

As for the incense burner, he placed it outside his body. Even after so much time had passed, there seemed to be a faint curl of green smoke in the burner, exuding a refreshing scent.

Just a sniff.

They all made him feel calm and focused.

Combined with the enlightenment cushion, the benefits to spiritual practice are comparable to a paradise on earth.

Only immortals on land like Wenshi Zhenren can do that.

The Louguan School’s tradition is immortal.

If I have the chance someday, I can go look for it.

Just like entering the Chunyang Palace on the top of Ao Mountain, it is actually to express gratitude for the legacy of Lu Zu on Mount Kuanglu.

However, even he himself did not expect that he would meet a Jindan sword cultivator in the palace. A debate with him on sword made his understanding of sword advance by leaps and bounds!

As the night gets darker.

The ancient city outside the window gradually fell silent.

All the doors and windows in the market were closed.

There were only a few lights hanging outside the shops.

Chen Yulou put his thoughts aside and casually placed the wine jug on the coffee table beside him. He didn't even need to calm his mind. In the blink of an eye, he was already in a state of meditation.

next door.

End of the corridor.

Partridge Whistle didn't even have time to rest.

He didn't even change his clothes. He sat at his desk by candlelight, studying the Taixuan Sutra word by word.

Read to the point of interest.

He also did not forget to pick up his pen and write down every word of the true scriptures.

According to Brother Chen, this Taixuan Sutra was most likely left behind by Master Wenshi, who lived in seclusion on Mount Zhongnan for hundreds or thousands of years until he ascended to heaven.

It is an honor to be able to take a look at such a mysterious scripture.

Before each observation, he would wash his hands for fear of getting them dirty.

I have been busy these days and have not been able to spare much free time. I finally have some free time tonight, so why would I waste it?

Separated by the room containing Kunlun, Yang Fang and the old foreigner.

One of them was meditating and practicing, while the other was reading by lamplight at night.

Unconsciously.

A hint of white gradually appeared in the sky, and the downstairs began to become lively. Fishermen, vegetable vendors, and breakfast shops were hawking their wares, and the sound of shouting and yelling filled the air, giving off an air of bustling urban life.

call--

Chen Yulou slowly opened his eyes, with golden light shining deep in his pupils. The aura around him became increasingly unfathomable, and between his brows, in addition to the depth, there was also a sense of the sharpness of a sword.

Exhaled.

He stood up, waved his hand lightly, and his mind moved as he wished. In an instant, the cushion and incense burner disappeared out of thin air.

I washed up briefly.

When he left the house, several people from the next door rooms also pushed open the doors and came out.

"Are you all awake?"

"That's great. Let's eat something downstairs and then set off for Longling."

He glanced at a few people.

Kunlun and the old foreigner had sparkling eyes and looked full of energy, it was obvious that they had had a good sleep.

Yang Fang's eyes were red.

I'm afraid I'll be tossing and turning all night and unable to fall asleep.

As for Partridge Whistle, although he looked tired, his eyes were extremely clear, revealing an indescribable surprise. It seemed that he had benefited a lot from studying the scriptures all night.

"it is good."

Naturally, a few people would not refuse.

I simply filled my stomach and also replenished enough dry food and water for a few days.

After all, whenever they asked about the location of Longling, the answers they got were almost all that it was remote and desolate, with few people visiting.

Wait until everything is ready.

Without further hesitation, the group went out of the city gate and headed south along the official road.

It is called an official road, but in fact it has been abandoned for many years. In addition, Gulan County has experienced drought for several years in a row, and the road is covered with yellow sand. When riding a horse, smoke and dust are raised everywhere.

It seems like I have returned to the days when I crossed the Hexi Corridor.

From time to time, you can see figures in twos and threes on the roadside, some leading cattle, some driving cars. Most of them have dark complexions, red cheeks, and look pale and thin.

Only the children in the truck would curiously stick their heads out and look at them with envy and fear.

Get off the official road.

We passed several villages.

The surrounding scenery became increasingly desolate until the fields were replaced by rolling hills. After walking deep into the mountains for nearly two hours, they finally arrived at Longling.

Look around.

There were gullies crisscrossing everywhere, and fragmented earth fields, hills, ridges and ditches stood all around. The weeds that had long since withered were fluttering back and forth in the cold wind.

Occasionally, you can still see unmelted snow on the mountain ridges.

The cold wind blew through the ravine, making a whistling sound like the howling of a ghost.

The rolling mountains are divided into countless gullies and wind tunnels.

"This……"

"Shopkeeper, I can't even find anyone to ask for directions."

I thought that no matter how remote the place was, there should always be a few human figures. But when I arrived, I found that there were no people, not even birds or animals, on the endless loess plateau.

There is a desolate feeling that makes people feel depressed and suffocated.

"Why are you panicking?"

"The terrain is undulating, and since there is a large tomb here, it must be in the middle of the dragon vein."

Chen Yulou shook his head.

After looking around, he soon rode his horse to a high slope.

Sitting on horseback and looking up.

There were gullies and ravines all around, like dragons and snakes walking, with uneven heights and an extremely complex terrain.

If ordinary people saw it, they would only think that the mountain ridge here was barren, without any shelter or protection, and it was difficult to form a terrain. But after learning the sixteen-character Yin-Yang Feng Shui secret technique, Chen Yulou saw that the earth veins were crisscrossed and the branches were raised side by side, worthy of the name Longling.

There is a saying in the book "The Lost Tomb".

There are hundreds of mountains and rivers, and countless dragon towers and palaces.

This stretch of rolling hillsides may seem like nothing, but the forms and the gathering of people clearly present a sense of deep, peaceful and calm.

After just a moment's look, he felt almost confident.

He glanced at Partridge Whistle behind him again.

Seeing his eyes flickering and deep, he seemed to have noticed something.

"Brother Chen, there is probably a treasure of inestimable value under the mountain ahead, at least... of the king level!"

Feeling Chen Yulou's gaze.

Partridge Whistle let out a sigh, and without further delay, briefly described what he had seen.

"If the terrain of Longling has always been like this and has never changed, the person who can find such a Feng Shui treasure land must be extraordinary. It is not an exaggeration to say that he is a master."

Upon hearing what he said.

Chen Yulou knew that Partridge Whistle had already achieved a very high level of attainment in the sixteen characters.

"No, Shopkeeper Chen, Senior Brother, please stop asking riddles to keep us on the edge of our seats. Where exactly is the Dragon King Temple?"

I saw two people talking to each other.

The old foreigner who followed behind was completely confused.

This is both the power of dragon vein and the master of Feng Shui.

He also looked for a long time, but saw nothing except yellow earth and broken ravines.

"Old foreigner brother, have you forgotten about those two armored beasts?"
