Legend of Xianghuang

Chapter 96: The Devil (4)

A poem that is not unfamiliar, accompanied by a melody that has never been heard before, is melodious and profound, full of indescribable affection.

There seemed to be some kind of melancholy and lamentation in it.

Xiang Huang couldn't help raising his hand subconsciously to touch the ghost stone on his chest, a flash of nostalgia flashed in his eyes.

But soon, her eyes became clear again, and she turned her head to look at the people around her. Shadow Blade always had a cold face, Soul Eater looked around, and was not surprised by this.On the other hand, Jiang Yuan, she had a rare wry smile and her brows were tightly frowned, which was quite different from her who was always flamboyant and casual.

"Let's go there." Xiang Huang said, lightly overshadowing the chanting, awakening those who were immersed in it.

Jiang Yuan was taken aback for a moment, then nodded, feeling a little embarrassed.

Following Xiang Huang, Jiang Yuan looked at her back, wondering if she had noticed her abnormality, and suddenly felt a stabbing gaze beside her, and turned her head to see that it was Ying Ren who was looking at her with disdain.

Jiang Yuan suddenly burst into flames, like a kitten who has been spied on the secret of her heart: "What are you looking at!"

Shadow Blade turned his head coldly, leaving a sentence: "You are about to fall into the pit."

Jiang Yuan's reaction was also considered fast. After listening to the words, before she could fully react, her raised legs stopped and hung in mid-air.

She looked down, and saw the black under the gap in the messy dead leaves under her feet. It was still a not-so-shallow hole, so she hurriedly stepped over it.

Look at the people who have already walked a short distance, and quickly follow.

Looking at the upright body of the shadow blade, Jiang Yuan suddenly smiled, stepped forward and slapped her sword fiercely, and immediately backed away when the shadow blade subconsciously raised her hand to fight back, avoiding her blade, and said with a smile: "just now Thank you~"

Yingren's icy expression instantly became a little tangled up, Jiang Yuan almost burst out laughing at the look of wanting to have an attack but not being able to.

In the end, Yingren could only give Jiang Yuan a hard look, turned his head to follow Xiang Huang, and ignored Jiang Yuan.

Jiang Yuan laughed sullenly for a while, and knew that she would accept it as soon as it was good, and followed quickly, and the emotions that were drawn out earlier disappeared in smoke.

Of course, Xianghuang knew what happened behind her, and there was no major problem, and she didn't delay the business. She has never been too restrictive.

Soul Eater led the way further ahead, he looked left and right, and sniffed from time to time, as if he was looking for something.

After walking for half a day, I calculated the time to be three quarters of the unitary hour, but the sun and the moon in the sky were always hanging, illuminating this sea area like daylight.

"Ahead is the cliff. The entrance of the cave is in the middle, surrounded by vines. I have never entered the cave. I only know that it is the tomb of the emperor, but I don't know what it is."

Soul Eater stopped and pointed to the middle of the cliff in mid-air.

Just like what he said, vines as thick as a child's forearm hang down from the entire cliff, and one can vaguely see that there is a special place, and the vines at the entrance of the cave are much more lush than the surrounding ones.

"Since you never went in, how did you know about the tomb keeper?" Xianghuang asked.

Soul Eater giggled: "If you want me to tell you, the Emperor's Tomb does not just refer to the tomb in the cave, the entire sea area and island are classified as a cemetery by the tomb keeper. He waved his hands, "Look, we have walked all the way, but we haven't seen any snakes, insects, rats or ants, and we haven't heard the slightest bird song or beast roar. This is all done by the grave guard."

Xiang Huang raised his eyebrows: "So, the tomb guards are not guarding in the cave, but wandering around the island and sea, and will kill other living things?"

Since the fog on this island is not poisonous, Xianghuang can only speculate like this.

Soul Eater laughed again: "I met the gravekeeper once, she just expelled me away, she doesn't seem to be a person who is keen on killing. But she really doesn't allow creatures that can make movements to survive on the island."

"She said that nothing can disturb the emperor's long sleep."

Xianghuang nodded to show his understanding, and flew towards the cliff in a blink of an eye.

Soul Devourer was dumbfounded, and couldn't help but whispered: "Does she understand what I mean? Isn't this a big taboo for the tomb guard?!"

As soon as the words fell, the shadow blade also moved, and without saying a word, Jiang Yuan followed Xianghuang's pace and quickly swept away, the speed was still ridiculously fast.

After several ups and downs, both Xianghuang and Yingren landed at the entrance of the cave.

Jiang Yuan stood still in shock, and exaggeratedly comforted herself: "I know what a sharp blade breaks through!" She took the time to cut the shadow blade with an eye knife, "You are already a demon, can you stop treating yourself as a swordsman? You need to learn more from Xiao Xiangzi, and look at her temperament."

Shadow Blade replied sternly: "Master is not something ordinary people can learn."

Jiang Yuan was so choked that she couldn't speak, she could only point to the shadow blade and look at Xianghuang: "Little Xiangzi, how did you raise this idiot!"

"Shadow Blade is very smart, but relatively simple." Xianghuang didn't have much thought of joking now, so he just answered casually.

When she met Shadow Blade, Shadow Blade had just turned into a demon. Although he had a good cultivation and looked like an adult, his thinking was as simple as a piece of paper.

She gave her a name and told her how to survive, so Shadow Blade regards Xianghuang as the main one, and only listens to Xianghuang wholeheartedly.

Being praised by Xianghuang, Yingren was of course happy, and hurriedly followed Xianghuang with joy in his eyes, ignoring that annoying Jiangyuan.

Jiang Yuan really didn't expect Yingren to have such a simple and happy smile, she froze for a moment, then shook her head amusingly and followed.

Really still a child.

Laughing and playing, the atmosphere in the room also calmed down.

Walking along the corridor leading to the emperor's tomb now, you may have to face unknown traps and spells at any time, and no one is confident that you will be able to pass it safely.

However, unexpectedly, the corridor is not long, and there is no protection.Xiang Huang and his party easily passed through the tunnel, and saw the lit candle-lit stone cave at the end—or should it be called, the tomb.

Because more than a dozen stone nests were dug on the surrounding stone walls, and the insides were filled with grease and burned, even the corners of the caves were illuminated.

Under the light of the candlelight, you can see that the stone wall has been smoothed by external forces, and there are stone carvings carved on it. The figures, birds and animals are exquisite and lifelike.

There is a sarcophagus in the center of the tomb, and a stone tablet stands in front of the sarcophagus. On the tablet, there are only two characters - Yusu.The silver hook painted on iron looks like it was done in one go.

Other than that, there is nothing in the tomb.

"Xiao Xiangzi, is this really the emperor's tomb?" Jiang Yuan couldn't help but ask, the cave was so empty that it made one feel chilly.

Xianghuang was always looking at the stone carvings on the surrounding walls, and nodded after a while: "It should be here." She raised her hand and pointed, "Looking at the carvings on the stone walls, it should be the life of this emperor."

The rest of the people also took a look. Indeed, every stone carving has the same figure. Although the costumes are different, the finely carved eyebrows and eyes are particularly distinct.

"Hey, is this carved by the tomb guard? It's so realistic." Jiang Yuan couldn't help but took a step forward, raising her hand to touch the center of a pair of stone carvings. , A woman with a sense of tragedy.

This woman did not look like she was married, but rather a sacrifice.

However, before Jiang Yuan could express this thought, a strange twist spread from her fingertips to her whole body in an instant.

She subconsciously wanted to remind her, but when she turned her head, she saw that Xianghuang and Yingren behind her had disappeared.

Turning back again, Jiang Yuan looked at everything in front of her in astonishment.

The stone wall disappears, men, women and children come and go in front of them, stepping on bluestone slabs, and there are various stalls on the left and right, except for the unusual building structure and clothing, it is an ordinary and happy scene.

"What... what's going on?" Jiang Yuan couldn't help muttering, not knowing what happened.

Is there something weird on that stone carving?However, he did not feel the fluctuation of spiritual power at all.

"This is probably where the stone carvings were drawn." Xiang Huang's voice answered Jiang Yuan's doubts. She also came here, and Shadow Blade was naturally beside her. "It's similar to the scene in the first stone carving."

Jiang Yuan's eyes lit up: "Stone carvings? What is painted on the stone carvings?" She only took a few glances, and did not have time to carefully observe all the stone carvings in the future. All her attention was focused on the one with the strongest feeling.

Mingyan is as enthusiastic as a fire, as if desperate to burn all of herself.

Xiang Huang didn't answer, but frowned, thought for a moment and then walked aside.

Jiang Yuan glanced at Yingren, well, the child must have followed without asking anything, so she had no choice but to follow.

When Wanwan comes back to life, she must let her educate Xiao Xiangzi well. How can she have such an attitude?

Of course, Xiao Xiangzi thought there was a way, so there must be a way.

In fact, Xianghuang didn't go far.

At the intersection, Xiang Huang turned to the left and saw a road, with peach blossoms in full bloom on both sides of the road, dyeing half of the sky red like red clouds.

A gust of wind blows, and the petals fall like rain, which is so beautiful.

"... so beautiful." Jiang Yuan couldn't help but sighed, "I have never seen such a peach blossom scene, Xiao Xiangzi, are the petals redder than ordinary ones?"

Xianghuang responded, thinking of the large sea of ​​pear blossoms he had seen in the past.

At this time, not far ahead, several children caught her attention.

"Over there." Xianghuang pointed in the direction and walked over first.

Jiang Yuan followed her gaze and immediately noticed a girl among them. Although she was young, she could already see her stunning appearance when she grew up.

That's the emperor, Jiang Yuan thought, although she didn't understand why she could come to this ordinary street as an emperor.

"Hey, little Xiangzi, you are not afraid to surprise them." Seeing that Xianghuang was about to approach, Jiang Yuan hurriedly grabbed her arm to stop her in a low voice.

Just such a movement caused Shadow Blade's knife-like gaze. Jiang Yuan has no doubt that if one day, Shadow Blade can be cultivated into sight and can also be transformed into a blade, then she will be cut into pieces.

"They can't see us." Xianghuang said flatly, raising his hand to catch a peach blossom falling from above.

The peach blossoms fell down in a whirl, passed through Xianghuang's palm, and finally fell to the ground.

"Here, it's just a memory."
