Overshadowing the sun is always a demon

Cerberus made a fuss, and the food theft incident was disconnected before anything could be investigated.You must know that this tossing back and forth for an hour or two is enough time for the inner ghost to eliminate the evidence, so this matter can only be left alone.

Back next to the volcanic tube, everything seems to return to the original point.

After Xiao Tang came back, he put on a change of clothes and fell asleep. Fadu went to see him a few times, but nothing happened. He must be really tired.It's just that they didn't eat or drink at the moment, and they didn't know what danger was ahead, so everyone was unavoidably impatient.On the contrary, Alfonso and Diego looked very calm, busy with sampling and analyzing Cerberus' saliva and blood, as if they were not worried about the rest of the journey.

Fadu leaned over to look at it for a while, but couldn't help asking: "Alfonso, if we can't go out again, won't the research you do will never see the light of day?"

Alfonso looked up at him: "Cerberus is a creature that has always been controversial in the academic world. Our research proves its existence, which is the first-hand information in the academic world. If we don't go out, other scholars will find us in the future." The research materials are also very valuable for reference.”

Fadu admired their scientific research spirit from the bottom of his heart, and thought he shouldn't bother them anymore, so he turned back the same way.It didn't matter at this point, there was actually a pool of blood under Xiao Tang's head, and he was so frightened that he was scared out of his wits, so he rushed over and grabbed Xiao Tang and shook him desperately: "Xiao Tang! Wake up!"

"What are you going to do?" Xiao Tang was shaken awake from a drowsy sleep, suppressing his voice with anger on his face.

Fadu hastily showed him the blood on his hands: "Blood! You are bleeding!"

Xiao Tang then wiped a handful of blood, showing a very weird expression, and said after more than ten seconds of crash: "Oh, Cerberus and your blood are both great tonics, and some nosebleeds are normal. Are you okay? Are you okay? Go away, I'm going to bed."

Fadu: -_-!

Uncle Zhongyi pulled Fadu aside, and his tone sounded particularly dignified: "Fado, Uncle Zhongyi knows that you two are on good terms, and it doesn't matter if you fight and fight in normal times, so don't bother Shaolei right now."

"But..." At this moment, Fa Du had countless questions circling in his mind, but seeing Xiao Tang's deadly character, there was no way he could ask them.

"I know what you're worried about." Uncle Zhongyi sighed, and showed him the spirit stone in his hand, "Shao Lei is not a monster...at least not now."

"Isn't it now? Can your Tang family become like that?" As soon as Fadu asked, he felt that this question was ridiculous. If the whole Tang family was like this, then the existence of this race would have been hidden for a long time.

"No, Shaolei is the only one who can become like that." Uncle Zhongyi lowered his voice, "The Tang family has dealt with demons and goblins for generations, and the most important thing in our family is blood. Shaolei's mother, Tao Fang, is a subsidiary of the Tao family and is the patriarch. The fourth wife..."

Fadu was stunned: "Uncle Zhongyi, bigamy is against the law."

Uncle Loyalty disagrees: "In order to maintain the purity of the bloodline, the Tang family only intermarries with two families of the collateral lineage. Since ancient times, the bloodline has been weak and the population has been difficult to thrive. In recent generations, there are only a few people with the real surname Tang. If you don't use this method to spread out Ye, I'm afraid it has long since ceased to exist."

"That is to say, the Tang family can only marry the Liu family of the Tao family? This... What is so special about the bloodline of the Tang family?" Fadu was once again stunned. The Tang family does not marry foreigners. There is a blood relationship, and the probability of deformity is extremely high. It is not surprising that the population is not prosperous, but judging by Xiaotang's appearance, it does not seem to be deformed.

"Even if you don't say some things, everyone's heart is open. In the beginning, the ancestors of the Tang family must be descendants of demons and humans intermarried. Therefore, people who retain the blood of the Tang family have some extraordinary abilities. As a result of frequent births, the Tang family is also unwilling to intermarry with foreigners, because they are afraid that that little blood will be washed away in the inheritance. There will be one or two special children and grandchildren in each generation of the Tang family. He was raised as the next patriarch. Shaolei was born in a collateral line, and he was no different from other children at first, but after three or four years old, as long as he cried and got angry, his body would mutate. It is no different from a demon. The demon god enshrined by the Tang family is a tiger, and Shaolei turned into a black tiger. The patriarch said he was possessed by the family god, so the whole clan respected him and feared him, and almost no one dared to get close to him."

Fadu scratched his head: "Little Tang's life is really not easy... His parents don't care about him?"

"The head of the patriarch passed away more than ten years ago, and now the grandma is in charge. Tao Fang was originally in poor health, and died of illness half a year after the head of the patriarch passed away. Shao Lei was fostered by my family when he was a child, and I took care of him as my own son. .”

Hearing this explanation, Fadu still felt a little uncomfortable: "Since you are your own son, don't you feel sorry for his injuries?"

"Distressed? People's fate is not up to people to choose. Shaolei is so talented, so he has to bear more." Uncle Zhongyi smiled, "What's more, doing this business is risking one's life. Which one of the Tang family is not covered in scars. "

Fadu is silent, the Tang family itself is a deformed existence, they are isolated from the world and do little-known business, their ideas are inevitably deviant and out of tune with the real society.

"Found it! Come and see it! Come!" There was cheering from the volcano tube, as if a major discovery had been made.

Faduwei went over to take a look, and found that there was indeed a hidden flap five or six meters below the wellhead.Because the flap is made of bronze, it has been corroded with the wall of the volcanic pipe for a long time, and the outside is covered with layers of volcanic ash. It is really lucky to be able to find it.

"Shao Lei is right, there is indeed a secret passage hidden here." Uncle Zhongyi was also very happy, and repeatedly assigned Ma Zi, "Hurry up and wake up Shao Lei, and get ready to go."

Looking from the outside of the volcanic tube is a completely different experience than being inside it. When the rope was lowered, Fadu couldn't help wondering if he was crazy, and that's why he walked into this hellish volcanic tube step by step.

The magma pool under his feet was tumbling endlessly, like demons in hell devouring and fighting each other. The strong sulfur smell and hot wind rushed straight from the bottom up, and he and Xiao Tang were like spiders. On a safety rope, being pushed back and forth by the air current.

"What daydream are you doing again? Hurry up and concentrate." The wind whistled in his ears, and Xiao Tang had to shout at the top of his voice to let Fadu hear what he was saying.

After being yelled at by him, Fadu finally came back to his senses, but facing the pried open black hole in front of him, he still felt guilty: "What's in that hole?"

"I've never gone in, how would I know? Get ready, I'll push you in after counting to three."

"Wait a minute! You jumped in without knowing anything? What if there are monsters like Cerberus inside, even if it's just poisonous gas?"

"How to deal with it? I'll think about it when the time comes." Xiao Tang raised his eyebrows, "If you are afraid, then I will go in first, and you can jump over by yourself."

"Wait a minute! How can you jump over such a long distance!" Fadu glanced down, quickly closed his eyes and said a few times to Amitabha. on a rope!

"It makes sense. Let's go!" Xiao Tang acted swiftly and resolutely, and the word hesitation did not exist in his dictionary at all.Before he finished speaking, he swayed the rope heavily, and accurately pushed Fadu into the hole with one kick.

"Aww!" Fadu felt as if he had smashed something head-on when it was dark, his body rolled forward a few times before hitting the wall of the cave, he yelled in pain, and hastily turned the thing wrapped around his head down pull.

Those filaments were flexible yet sticky, and they were always entangled with his fingers, and it was hard to shake them off. At first, he thought they were human hair. It wasn't until Xiao Tang came in and turned on the lamp that he realized that it was a thick layer of hair. spider web.

As more and more people came in, the gathered lights finally completely illuminated this dusty place for many years.This is the passage full of diamonds that appeared in Fadu's dream, but the actual situation is simply hell. The entire passage is full of human bones, piled up as high as a hill, and there are at least a hundred mutilated corpses , the clothes covered on those bones have long been rotten, but judging from the scattered weapons, it is obvious that they are not from the same era.

"Look, even though the court beads are scattered, the emeralds are still on the back...According to the law of the Qing Dynasty, all civil servants of the fifth rank and military officials of the fourth rank or above, the Military Aircraft Department, Guards, Rites, Guozijian, Taichang Temple, Guanglu Temple, Honglu Temple, etc. Officials belonging to the temple and others, as well as the wives of fifth-rank officials and above, have to hang up." Uncle Zhongyi frowned and looked solemn, "This dead is not an ordinary thief."

"Thin copper soft armor, tsk tsk, the handwork of the Northern Song Dynasty, absolutely amazing!" Ah Fei leaned closer and picked up a piece of armor with a dagger to look at it carefully, his mouth full of admiration.

Mazi kicked the skull in front of him: "Look at the square scarf he's wearing, from the Ming Dynasty."

"The dead are the greatest, so let's be respectful to them." Fadu watched the skull roll and fly away, only feeling his scalp go numb, and kept chanting Amitabha.

Mazi disdained: "Since I can find this place, it's nothing more than human beings making money and birds dying for food. Since I'm not capable enough to die here, what respect is there?"

"In ancient times, the processing technology was limited, and the Chinese tradition only valued gold and jade. It was not until the Ming Dynasty that diamond jewelry flowed in, and diamonds were never valued. So many people died here, it would make no sense to say that it was for robbing diamonds. Uncle Zhongyi frowned, "They must have encountered some accident here."

"The entrance to this place is so small, Cerberus must not be able to get in." Xiao Tang squatted down and carefully examined a skeleton in front of him, "You can see that the hook on his throat is hooked backwards, or the person who killed him was left-handed, Or he killed himself."

"Suicide? It's not easy for them to come here. The gate is right in front, so why commit suicide?" The skeleton has gone through countless years, and its body has long been covered with dust. Fadu wanted to get closer and take a look. Carefully, he casually blew on the hook, but unexpectedly the aroused dust choked into his throat, causing a cough.

Cough, cough... After coughing two or three times, everyone heard a sound like a thunderclap in the sky, and immediately stood still, holding their breath and waiting motionlessly.

Karakala.

The sound of bones pulling against each other was like a shower of rain passing overhead.

Fadu's back was instantly covered with goosebumps.

The skeletons from various dynasties have all stood up, and have picked up their weapons, like an army of undead surrounding them in the center.
