Chapter 45 The Gallery

This bloody handprint appeared too strangely and abruptly.

Of course, Luo Xingyun still kept some things he knew, such as those footprints, the series of footprints he found in the passage just now, who is so interested in walking barefoot in the underground palace?

After listening to Li Wanshu, he didn't think of one place to tangle with everyone, but instead thought of something strange, and now he said excitedly: "I heard people say that blood is the most taboo in the imperial tomb. The soul of the owner of the tomb was drawn back and turned into a monster. Do you think that the person who broke in had blood on his body, and caused some dirty things to stay here?"

The head of the Rongcang faction stared straight at him, but in order to maintain his image of a master, he naturally said with a straight face: "It's nonsense! Yellow-haired boy, don't go here to deceive people! Where in the world Come to meet so many demons and ghosts for you?!"

Li Wanshu laughed, and stretched out his broken bone fan to become even more arrogant: "I said, senior, we are digging into someone's tomb now, and you who dig someone's grave refuse to admit their existence. I guess the late emperor will have to be killed by you." I'm so angry that I revolve around you."

As soon as everyone heard this, they involuntarily moved away and made a circle, and the leader of the Rongcang faction in the center was blown bearded and stared in anger.

But Li Wanshu knew how to accept it when he was happy, and ran over to molested Luo Xingyun after mocking the old master.Su Tianyi called all the disciples who were staying over there, and they discussed together how to open the bronze door.

In the end, after much discussion and discussion, there was no solution, and I couldn't find the agency when I searched around.Just when they were in trouble, the door suddenly let out a low bang, as if something was colliding madly inside, trying to break through the door.

"Everyone back up! Be careful!" Su Tian ordered one by one, those elite disciples did not scatter in this sudden situation, they stood in two piles in an orderly manner and slowly stepped back, clenched their hands tightly. arms.

It was difficult for everyone to guess what happened to this door, the echo echoed back and forth in the entire passage, and then there was the sound of iron chains colliding from nowhere, and a lot of dust fell on the bronze door, splashing on the head and face. on those who are near.

"Cough, cough, cough!" Su Tian blocked his face with his sleeve and coughed a few times, the dust is always choking!

Although Li Wanshu and Luo Xingyun also covered their mouths and noses with their sleeves, their eyes were fixed on the bronze door with uncertain expressions.

Why does this bronze door open by itself? !Could it be that someone opened it for them?Who is that?Friend or foe?

Doubts flashed through the minds of the two of them one after another. The two bronze doors were opened under the gaze of everyone, with a low roar like a wild beast, and a burst of dust was blown up by the way.

Luo Xingyun saw the yellow-gray dust blowing towards his face, so he lowered his head and narrowed his eyes, just when he wanted to cover his eyes with his sleeve, he saw a jumping fire behind the door, which was very eye-catching!

Is there someone inside? !He didn't care much and opened his eyes immediately, but the light spot disappeared like a magic trick!

Just now he saw the flames behind the white marble, but now he walked to the end of the passage, but there was no sign of a person, but the door has never been opened, how did that person get in? !Is it possible... there are ghosts?

All the dust fell from the surroundings, everyone coughed and sneezed together, Li Wanshu waved away the remaining dust in front of his eyes, only to find that Luo Xingyun's eyes were red, staring straight ahead as if in a daze: "Ah Yun? What’s wrong with you?"

Luo Xingyun came back to his senses after being woken up by someone. He suddenly felt his eyes were dry and uncomfortable. He scolded himself for being stupid and hurriedly closed his eyes. The next moment, he felt a finger reaching out to caress the corners of his eyes, leaving only a touch Cool.

Luo Xingyun was stunned for a moment, thinking that he was a man who had never shed tears, but fell on the little dust today? !And let this hypocrite see that they will all be treated as a laughing stock in the future!

Besides, Li Wanshu's move was completely in accordance with his wishes, but he never thought that Luo Xingyun would turn red in front of him, and was tossed like this by the dust, he only thought it was funny.

When Su Tian turned around, he happened to see this scene in his eyes, and he was not surprised.A few days ago, he sent a letter to Fu Lianbi, the steward, and when the steward replied, he specifically told him to treat him well if he met someone holding the token of the owner of the villa. It was probably...Luo Xingyun.

Luo Xingyun frowned, waiting for the discomfort in his eyes to pass, while carefully transmitting to Li Wanshu: "There is something moving inside, I don't know if it is a human or a ghost."

Li Wanshu was a little surprised, he just reached out and poked the back of Luo Xingyun's hand twice to signal that he knew.

It seems that in this imperial tomb, there is really a pretending party that I don't know about.In order not to expose too much, this time he didn't invite too many people from Fulianbi to come in, but he managed to let more people in to participate. When there are more people, those pretending to be ghosts can't help but come out to make trouble .

He wanted to see who would come to spy on his east direction first.

"Master Su, this door has opened inexplicably, shall I go in?"

"This door is so weird, could it be that there is some mechanism inside, just waiting for us to go in!"

"Maybe someone deliberately opened the door for us to plot against me!"

Everyone chattered and discussed, but no one dared to go in and have a look. Su Tian frowned and could only discuss with the eight heads.

"What do you think that person is up to?" Li Wanshu asked with his head tilted.

Luo Xingyun's eyes felt better, so he opened them a little: "I feel like they are guiding us, but it's hard to say whether they are leading us into a pit."

Li Wanshu saw Luo Xingyun frowning and squinting his eyes for fun, so he acted like a hooligan, stretched out his hand and waved in front of his eyes: "Are your eyes still uncomfortable? Do you want me to help?"

"It's because my eyes are dry that I can't open them, and it's not like something's stuck in my eyes, what's the blow?" Luo Xingyun said unhappily, if his eyes were fine at this time, maybe he would roll his eyes at this guy.

After discussing for a while, everyone is still ready to go in. At least they can't find a way out now. What else can they do besides go forward?Even if it is a pit, you have to grit your teeth and jump.

Due to the huge bronze door, it is not a problem for seven or eight people to walk in side by side. After a group of people stepped into the door carefully, they heard the echo of their footsteps. It seems that this should be a large hall.

The place illuminated by the torch was very limited. When several elders saw a huge palace lantern, they approached the torch and lit it.As soon as the palace lanterns were turned on, people could finally see a corner of the hall clearly. When they looked up, they could only vaguely see the top of the hall.

Some elders and disciples hurriedly lit all the palace lanterns in the hall before they had time to observe, but the appearance of the lights left everyone present stunned.

"This is... the Nine Twist Corridor?!"

I saw that this hall is spacious and unknowingly geometric, and the first thing people notice is the nine-curved corridor lying on top of a large lake like a dragon.

This corridor is very spacious, winding from one end of the lake to the other, the glazed tiles on the corridor are even more magnificent under the reflection of the fire.It is said that this Nine-Zigzag Corridor is a part of the Garden of Immortals. There are nine twists and turns on the bridge, which spans the two worlds of immortals and connects life and death. .

As early as more than [-] years ago, the emperor announced to the world that he would build the Jiuqu Corridor. However, no one in the world has seen it in the past few years. I'm bragging.

Therefore, when Luo Xingyun and the others saw the edict of the first emperor, they guessed that it was in the tomb of the first emperor, because the emperor used the Jiuqu Corridor for burial.

"I didn't expect this to be true." The leader of the Rong Cang Sect murmured, his face full of shock.

"Didn't the emperor say that he was buried in the Jiuqu corridor? Why can't he see the coffin?" a disciple asked.

"Look, the emperor's coffin is in the center of the nine-curved corridor." An elder pointed to the black object in the middle and said, "He put himself in this nine-curved corridor, living one end and dying at the other. Some immortal will revive him."

Luo Xingyun sighed secretly: "Of course the emperor doesn't want to die. After finally conquering this country, the dragon chair has to walk away empty-handed before it's warmed up."

"Which emperor doesn't want to live a long life? I think this guy is too extreme. You can see that he arranged so many things during his lifetime. After his death, I have witnessed it. There is no other difference except that he becomes a dried salted fish." Li Wanshu laughed.

Luo Xingyun pursed his lips, and continued to observe other places: "Do you see how there are iron chains on these eight Panlong pillars?"

Li Wanshu looked around after hearing the words, and then looked at the black coffin in the middle: "It seems that they are all connected to the coffin in the middle, let's go and have a look."

Luo Xingyun was taken aback after hearing this, and after experiencing what happened in the tunnel just now, he was a little bit resistant to the position of being taken advantage of, so he stretched out his hand and grabbed the sleeve of Li Wanshu who was about to take a step: "Don't worry, this junior should have a junior look."

Li Wanshu stopped obediently, put his hands behind his back and said with a smile, "Brother Yun is right."

As soon as Su Tian and the others set up the torches, a few pathfinders walked towards the Jiuqu corridor, and Luo Xingyun and the two looked quite leisurely behind them.There seemed to be no mechanism in this corridor, but after experiencing the thrills of the passage, even if there was no danger, their spirits could not relax, and they were extremely cautious in every step.

The stone bricks on the corridor are currently the most expensive crushed quartz stones. It is indeed a waste to cut out a large piece to make floor tiles. There are dragon and phoenix reliefs on each of the stone railings on both sides, separating each section of the stone railings. Each pillar is inlaid with a colored glaze bead the size of a fist.

In this situation, Luo Xingyun only felt that the former emperor had squandered his money recklessly, and luckily the national treasury was not short after the construction of the imperial mausoleum and underground palace.If you get a glass bead here, you can immediately set up a mansion in the official residence in the capital, and you can hire a whole house of servants if you get an extra one. Now you don't have to worry about running out of money in the future.

It's a pity that all of these people are well-known and decent, let's not mention that those ambitions are far more than the value of a glass bead, even if it is really lacking, they can't be embarrassed to pick the beads and put them in their pockets.

So everyone's minds immediately changed from "always vigilant mechanism" to constantly accusing the emperor of extravagance and waste, but no one spoke for a while, and soon they walked to the central section of the Jiuqu corridor, approaching the black coffin.

And Fang used the torch in his hand to slightly let people see the appearance of the coffin, and everyone was startled by the formation.

The black coffin should be made of a kind of diamond ebony, it is very huge, some strange runes are engraved on the coffin, and a large circle of high-quality purple jade as thick as an arm is inlaid on the side, it is extremely extravagant.

The coffin is covered with eight overlapping cinnabar symbols pointing in eight different directions, and each direction corresponds to a palace lantern, full of evil spirits.

Above the eight runes in the coffin is the intersection point of the eight iron chains, and there is a small wooden figure bound in the middle.But the little wooden man's current position is a bit strange, his body is obviously tilted to one side.

But at a glance, it also makes people understand that the emperor's desire to be resurrected has become an obsession during his lifetime, but it is a pity that dust returns to dust after death, regardless of whether you are a royal family or whoever you are.

"Ayun." Li Wanshu called Luo Xingyun suddenly, "There is an iron chain broken, and there may be something wrong next."

Luo Xingyun immediately looked up, and sure enough, one of the iron chains had been broken, but it was barely fixed here by being entangled by the other seven.The iron chain must not be broken by oneself, how many years has it been closed?There is not much rust on the chain, it should be broken deliberately by someone, could it be that person just now?

"Young Master Luo!" Su Tian yelled, "Don't approach the coffin rashly, I don't know what mechanism is there!"

Only then did Luo Xingyun realize that he couldn't help taking a step closer to the coffin, but although he stopped, the expression on his face was very strange, and he raised his eyebrows and said softly: "You can see that there are... a handprint?"

Everyone was silent for a while, and the heads showed surprise. They obviously thought of some ghosts and gods.

Su Tianyi felt that the bloody handprint must not be a good thing, but his young master seemed to want to investigate to the end, so he couldn't act rashly, so he said: "Don't tell others about this, it would be bad if it caused civil strife."

Li Wanshu took a step forward to stand shoulder to shoulder with Luo Xingyun, and said softly: "Ah Yun, I want to catch that pretender, what do you think?"

"But this blood handprint is so authentic, is it possible...someone came in a few years ago? Or..." Luo Xingyun thought of the flickering flames, "That person has been in this underground palace all this time .”

Hearing this, Li Wanshu widened his eyes and looked at Luo Xingyun: "These words are a bit scary."

"Didn't this scare Brother Li?" Luo Xingyun raised his eyes and chuckled, his eyes were lively and lively, but they didn't show any femininity at all, showing a little bit of a different style.

Li Wanshu sighed in his heart when he saw it: It's really embarrassing to be able to see but not eat every day!

Depressed at this end, those elite disciples and elders in the corridor shouted: "Tsk tsk, it's fine if there is no water in this lake, why are there all heads?!"

Luo Xingyun and the others lowered the torches to look at the stone fence in the corridor, and they really saw a pile of human skulls, these skulls were randomly placed in the lake, some of the backs of their heads were broken in half, and some had no teeth, which was very miserable .

Perhaps the replacement of each generation of emperors is accompanied by countless human lives as stepping stones. No matter how wise he was in office, the world knows how many bloody killings were involved behind it, but the blood does not necessarily have to be on the hands of the emperor. That's all.

Su Tianyi and the others looked around again, and they felt that there was no serious danger, so they let the elite disciples walk around in the hall, but they couldn't walk into the corridor.Although they came here to search for the martial arts decree, no one dared to open the coffin of the late emperor when it was placed here. That would be disrespectful to the owner of the tomb. condemn?

Luo Xingyun and Li Wanshu walked into an ear room.

This place is the right ear room, with a very special arrangement, and a coffin is placed in the center, which seems to be the person buried with him.In front of the coffin stood three longevity candles, one as thick as a human wrist.

But now this candle appears here as abruptly as a bloody handprint. This longevity candle was obviously going to be lit when the emperor was buried, and the tomb was sealed later. Why did these three candles go out before even burning out the ends?

"Ayun, do you think someone would sneak in and destroy the emperor when he was buried?" Li Wanshu pondered, "This can also explain the bloody handprint and the reason why the iron chain was broken."

"...What is the purpose? If you seal the tomb, you will definitely die. He came in to extinguish these longevity candles and destroy that iron chain? If it is for revenge or something, since everyone has the heart of death, yes I will find a way to blow up this place, once and for all." Luo Xingyun turned his head and asked.
