Chapter 147 [Crossing the Soul Bridge] (Part 2)
The blind man said, "It is not suitable to stay here for a long time. It is full of weirdness everywhere. It is better for us to leave as soon as possible." He came over and wanted to carry Luo Lie on his back. Luo Lie shook his head and insisted on moving forward. But after taking a few steps, he felt his legs were sore and weak. Every step was like stepping on cotton, so he had to accept the help of the blind man.
A black horn hole appeared in front of him. The edge of the hole was carved with a monster's head. The hole was just the location of the monster's big mouth, and the black horn hole seemed to be able to swallow everything.
Arnold looked at the entrance of the cave and couldn't help but feel scared and said to the sparrow: "Are you sure we did not go wrong?"
The sparrow nodded and said, "The direction should be right. This should be the secret place where Emperor Yongzheng refined alchemy in the Old Summer Palace during his lifetime. It is two different parts from the underground waterway of the Old Summer Palace, so the map lacks the part here."
The blind man said: "Water and fire blend together, and feathers turn into dragons. Is this also a tomb?"
The sparrow looked at her eyebrows and frowned slightly. She did not agree with the blind man's opinion. No historical document has recorded the statement that there is a tomb under the Old Summer Palace.
The blind man said, "Maybe Emperor Yongzheng is buried under this."
The sparrow said: "The tomb of Emperor Yongzheng is located in the Dongling Mausoleum, called Tailing Mausoleum. How could the historical records of the Qing Palace be wrong?"
The blind man laughed and said, "The historical materials are all written by people. If you believe in historical materials so much, why is there no real cause of Emperor Yongzheng's death recorded in historical materials?"
The sparrow was actually stopped by him.
The blind man said: "The historians who write history eat the salary of the court and must serve the court. They dare to write randomly, even if they don't die, they will be disabled. Have you heard of Sima Qian?"
The sparrow spat and said, "If you don't argue with you, you will be messing around."
The blind man said, "I'm not a mess." He raised his compass and said, "First there is a water system, and then a furnace and cauldron. Previously, the water system was a place for flood discharge and drainage. The furnace and cauldron just now was a place for alchemy and elixir. Although we were heading northwest just now, this passage became directly south and north. According to Luoshu, there were nine steps on one side, three steps on the left and seven steps on the right, two steps on the shoulders, six steps on the six steps on the feet, five steps on the center. The horizontal and vertical steps on the slant and vertical steps on the fifteenth. From the perspective of direction, three means the east, nine means the south, seven means the west, one means the north, five means the center. Two, four steps on the south, six steps on the center, two means the south, southeast, northwest, and northeast respectively."
The blind man was particularly energetic when talking about his profession. He spoke in a slight manner and had a lotus tongue. Not to mention sparrows, even the lure was fascinated by the hearing.
Arnold's eyes turned from contempt to a little admiration when he looked at the blind man, and he felt that he was unfathomable and he knew where he was. Anyway, he didn't understand a word.
The blind man cleared his throat and said, "We went from four to six, but we changed to five, which was exactly the fifteenth. I see the Feng Shui layout here, there must be a large tomb."
The sparrow has limited knowledge about Feng Shui, but it is difficult for her to convince her if she is blind, but she can't believe her.
Arnold, confused, said, "I don't care about the big tomb, I only care about how we get out." He talked about the most critical issue. Although Luo Lie woke up, he was obviously poisoned. If he could not remove the toxins in time, he would be afraid that there would be danger. And they did not bring out any food, and they could not last long in the underground that lacked food supplies.
The sparrow said: "Is it a tomb? I will know when I walk in." She took the lead in walking into the entrance of the cave that looked like a monster's mouth. The temperature inside the cave was very low. The blind man looked down and saw white rock layers at the bottom of his feet, and the walls on both sides were made of huge ice cubes. This underground building should be a huge ice cellar.
The few people were trembling with cold, but Luo Lie didn't feel anything. After being poisoned, his body was unbearable for heat. When he arrived in the ice cave, he felt relieved all over, as if the symptoms had also been relieved a lot.
The red light flashed inside, and the few people approached with curiosity. Looking up, they saw that the red light was a lit flame. It turned out that the entrance of the cave they walked into was not the only passage. The soul-summoning banner gathered together and entered from the upper entrance of the underground cave. The flames had already spread into the cave along the soul-summoning banner. In the center where the soul-summoning banner was wrapped, a huge crystal coffin was erected. Under the flames, everything in the coffin was clearly revealed.
A man in a royal robe stood upside down in the crystal coffin.
The blind man once told several people about the water, fire, and Yin and Yang holes. They were often buried like this. The locations were all where the dragon veins traveled. After the dead, they absorbed spiritual energy head downward, they developed scales in their bodies and turned into dragons to benefit their descendants. They walked around to the other side of the crystal coffin and found that the corpse in the crystal coffin, although the back was complete, but the head was cast of gold.
The sparrow suddenly remembered the folk rumors that Emperor Yongzheng had cut off his head after being assassinated by Lu Siniang. Could it be that the crystal coffin was really Emperor Yongzheng? He chose to place his body here to become a dragon one day? Unexpectedly, the blind man said that there was indeed a large tomb here, and it was Yongzheng's tomb. But Yongzheng was obviously buried in the Tai Mausoleum, is the person in the crystal coffin true or false?
However, according to the marks she saw before, there should be a waterway here leading to the bottom of Fuhai, but the road has reached its end and no waterways appear.
The fire spread rapidly along the soul-summoning banner. In a short period of time, the soul banner and ropes surrounding the crystal coffin were all ignited, and the huge crystal coffin fell from above.
With a sound of the puff, it seemed to penetrate the rock wall below. From the holes in the rock wall, the water column soared into the sky. It turned out that the ground where they were was full of water. The sprayed water column extinguished the burning soul banner, and the entire cave fell into darkness in an instant.
Sparrow said: "Water!"
As soon as she finished speaking, the huge crystal coffin was thrown out from the bottom of the water and flew towards them. Although Luo Lie could not see the specific situation clearly, he knew that the danger was coming with Superman's first-class sensing, and shouted: "Everyone is lying down!"
The blind man was the first to see it and exclaimed, "Let's go down!" He fell to the ground with Luo Lie. Sparrow and Arnold also hurriedly fell down. As soon as they lay on the ground, they felt the sound of wind roaring on their heads, but the crystal coffin flew past them.
The crystal coffin hit the rock wall on the side, and the lid of the coffin separated from the coffin. The corpse inside rolled out and landed not far from the blind man, making a clanging sound. The blind man looked closely and saw the body and head separated. The decaying mummy showed two brown thighs from under the dragon robe, and the pure gold head rolled to Arnold in a rumbling manner.
Luo Lie got up from the ground, and the sparrow beside him shouted his name and came to him to hold his arm. The person she cared about the most was Luo Lie. Luo Lie said: "Get out first."
The ground shook violently, and then the sound of rock formation cracking sounded, and the fluorescent light flashed behind it. The blind man turned around and saw that the jet of water was no longer as strong as before. The light was emitted from the big hole smashed by the crystal coffin. A thick claw suddenly stretched out from the hole, and a slap hit the rock, and the powerful force shocked the entire ground.
The blind man said in surprise: "Dragon...Dragon..."
Although the other people's eyesight is not as good as the blind man, most of them do not believe that there is a dragon hiding in this underground world, they have seen the big claws that are flashing with phosphorescence. Since the adventure of Pale Mountain, several people have known all kinds of unknown monsters and know that there are many unknown strange creatures that are rarely visited by humans. Even if a dragon really appears here, they will not feel strange.
Another giant claw stretched out, and with the force of both claws, a head the size of a sampan poked out of the water, and the two small eyes flashed with golden light.
The blind man ran and looked back, his eyes facing the monster's little eyes, and exclaimed: "Dragon! The real horse is a dragon!"
Luo Lie ran forward with the help of the sparrow. Under the threat of death, the potential in his body was rekindled, and his body suddenly had strength. He turned around and looked back. He saw that most of the monster had crawled out of the cave, with long mouths and short legs, and light blue phosphorescence flashing all over his body. It was clearly a huge crocodile. This crocodile was much larger than an ordinary crocodile, and its head and tail length exceeded ten meters. It was obvious that the crystal coffin just broke through the rock layer on the ground and released it. The giant crocodile was irritable and swept the crystal coffin out of the cave with its powerful and powerful long tail.
The loud kiss opened, revealing a shocking white sharp teeth, which seemed to have yawned, and then quickly bitten, and the sound of thunder sounded like a thunder sounded from a hole. The sound of shutting up made people frightened. The cunning gaze quickly locked on the enemy who was running away in front. It moved its steps slowly. When its body completely climbed up, the four thick short legs suddenly accelerated the rhythm.
Luo Lie and his men were almost escaping to the entrance of the cave, and heavy footsteps came from behind. From the rhythm of the footsteps alone, it could be inferred that the giant crocodile was running at an extremely astonishing speed.
This time Arnold was still at the end. The blind man was secretly moved. He didn't expect that the golden retriever was so loyal at the critical moment of life and death. He always covered his partner in the end. He shouted: "Golden retriever, hurry up!"
Arnold nodded, shook off his long legs and rushed up instantly. The blind man quickly followed. Seeing that the prey was about to escape from the hole, the giant crocodile was obviously a little anxious. He kicked his hind legs and actually jumped up in the air, biting the blind man at the end. When the blind man looked back, he was so scared that he almost didn't pee. He also jumped into the air and rushed out of the hole.
The giant crocodile's head was too big. When he was only a little bit able to bite the blind man, his head hit the rock wall at the entrance of the cave. Although his mouth went out, his head didn't go out. His big mouth closed one meter behind the blind man, and his puffed sound seemed like a shocking fart by the blind man.
