Chapter 516
516 You’re here (3)
Xu Qi ‘an analyzed from a rational point of view, ” strange. Some parts don’t make sense.
Golden Lotus, Chu Yuanyou, and the others knew that Xu Qi ‘an had an extraordinary talent in solving cases, so they all suppressed their scattered thoughts and listened to him.
“If the owner of this tomb is the Emperor in the mural, that is, the Daoist, then this mural is very strange.” Xu Qi ‘an said in a deep voice, ”
“Even our wise and powerful Emperor knows how to amend the history books to cover up his own stains. And this mural, it’s clearly drawn here, is it sarcasm?”
The wise and mighty Emperor revised the history books to cover up his own stains … Xu ningyan was too cautious. Even in such an occasion, he did not leave behind any evidence of “great disrespect.”
Chu Yuanyang thought to herself.
the heavenly lightning struck him to death, so this tomb should have been built by a subject or descendant. Isn’t it normal to criticize him? ” Hengyuan said.
“Master, you might build a tomb for your enemy, but others might not.” Xu Qi ‘an shook his head and said,
“If the later generations hated him, they would not have built such a large tomb. On the other hand, they wouldn’t have drawn such a mural. Unless the contents of the murals are extremely real.”
Everyone nodded and accepted his explanation. Chu Yuanyou said in a deep voice, “”With Daoist’s strength, ordinary lightning can’t kill him. Does this lightning have some other meaning?”
At this moment, Golden Lotus Daoist priest spoke in a deep voice, word by word, “”It’s the heavenly Tribulation.”
“Heavenly Tribulation?”
Hearing this, Xu Qi ‘an and the others looked at Taoist Golden Lotus. It was an unfamiliar term.
Daoist priest Golden Lotus slowly nodded. in the system of Daoism, the second stage is called ‘crossing tribulation’. After passing the heavenly Tribulation, one can become a first stage earth immortal. Hehe, this was not something that the divine retribution of the Directorate of Celestials and the Prophet could compare to. The previous Dao leader of the human sect was annihilated in the heavenly Tribulation.”
It turned out that the second stage of Daoism was called ‘crossing tribulation’, and the first stage was called’ earth immortal’. The members of the Heaven and Earth Society were quite happy to note it down.
Xu Qi ‘an smacked his head. I remember now. Taoist priest, you said that the damned head of the earth sect failed to pass the Tribulation. That’s why he was devoured by the demonic nature and degenerated into a demonic priest.
After he had killed zilian, the Golden Lotus Taoist had sneaked into Xu Qi ‘an’s room at night and had an honest conversation with him.
in other words, this Emperor is at the peak of the second rank in Taoism, only a step away from the immortal realm on earth. Chu Yuanqian said.
Golden Lotus Daoist priest suddenly heaved a sigh of relief. he died during the heavenly Tribulation and turned into ashes. This tomb should be a Cenotaph. There won’t be too much danger.”
The others also heaved a sigh of relief. Xu Qi ‘an teased her in a relaxed manner, “”Daoist priest, an overly confident judgment will often lead to the opposite result.”
Daoist priest, this fellow, don’t randomly plant flags.
Under Xu Qi ‘an’s lead, they came to the other side of the main tomb, but to their disappointment, there were no murals.
The exploration around the main tomb had come to an end. Xu Qi ‘an held a torch and led the group to the center, where they saw a wide black passage.
This passage led straight to the high platform in the center. On both sides of the passage were shallow puddles of water, and the water was muddy.
“There are candles on both sides …”
Xu Qi ‘an moved the torch, and the orange light shone on the edge of the passage. Every ten steps, a candle stand as tall as a person was set up, and it extended to the high platform.
On the candle stand, there were still candles that had not been burned out. They were red like blood, but they were crystal clear like rubies.
this seems to be the oil extracted from the Red Dragon of the East Sea. This candle can burn for decades without extinguishing. Daoist priest Golden Lotus sniffed the candle and recognized its material.
As they spoke, Xu Qi ‘an and Chu Yuanqian lit candles. The candlelight burned quietly, bringing more light to the vast main tomb.
Xu Qi ‘an asked people to pay attention to the pools on both sides to prevent evil things from hiding in the water.He lit up the candle stand at the edge of the passage.
The torches would not last long and would eventually go out. He had to replace them with something else before they burned out.
Xu Qi ‘an suddenly stopped as he approached the platform. Two rows of soldiers stood on the steps leading to the platform, quietly watching the uninvited guests.
Damn it, you scared me … Xu Qi ‘an walked over while cursing. He first listened carefully to make sure there was no heartbeat, then observed the mummies.
it’s just a dried corpse. Don’t touch it, everyone. Follow behind me.
After warning him, he climbed up the stairs and stepped onto the platform.
Xu Qi ‘an was the first to see the scene on the high platform. There was a huge bronze coffin in the center, and four tall figures stood in the four corners of the high platform.
These figures held different weapons in their hands and stood silently for thousands of years.
Daoist priest Golden Lotus glanced at the bronze coffin and moved her gaze away. She walked to the edge of the platform and examined the corpse closest to her.
The mummified corpse was wearing a fish-scaled armor, holding a purple-gold hammer, and wearing a bronze mask that only revealed a pair of eyes.
The fish-scale armors were connected by a red line, and each scale was engraved with strange runes, which were both evil and exquisite.
“This seems to be a Taoist work?” Chu Yuanqi was also observing the mummified corpse. However, the mummified corpse he was looking at was holding a rusty bronze sword.
After examining the four mummies and their armors, the Golden Lotus Taoist muttered, ”
“There are indeed traces of Taoism, but I can only make a guess about these ancient runes. The one in the West mainly focuses on metal, and the one in the South and North mainly focuses on fire, water, and wood respectively.”
“Where’s the soil?” Xu Qi ‘an asked.
Daoist priest Golden Lotus didn’t reply. Instead, she looked at the bronze coffin in the center.
“The central main land!” “What does this mean?” Chu Yuanqian asked in a low voice.
“Is it the reincarnation?” The wild Warlock, Gongyang su, looked at Zhong Li.
Zhong Li nodded and said, ” everything in the world is an illusion of the five elements. The ancient people believed that after death, people are buried in the tomb. The tomb is on the earth. If the five elements formation can be set up in the tomb, the dead will one day be reincarnated from the earth.
Everyone was listening with great interest, but Xu Qi ‘an suddenly felt a chill down his spine.
“This isn’t right, Daoist priest. Didn’t you say that you died in the heavenly Tribulation and turned into ashes? How could he reincarnate if he had nothing? What’s the use of this five elements formation?”
Daoist priest Golden Lotus was stunned for a moment before his pupils contracted slightly.”Let’s go. We’ve explored the main tomb. There’s no need to stay here any longer.”
Xu Qi ‘an nodded. Just as he was about to announce their retreat, he suddenly heard a sigh from the bronze coffin.
“You’re here …”
A chill ran up Xu Qi ‘an’s spine and up to his scalp. He gulped and suddenly turned to look at the crowd. He found that although they looked serious, they were not afraid.
Noticing Xu Qi ‘an’s gloomy face, Golden Lotus Taoist asked, “”What’s wrong with you?”
“I heard, in the coffin …” Xu Qi ‘an’s lips trembled a few times, and he spat out word by word from between his teeth, ”
“Someone’s talking.”
A chill ran up everyone’s spine, and their scalps instantly went numb.
Zhong Li shivered and almost couldn’t carry Lina.
Chu Yuanqian’s face was livid, and her voice was low and hurried. let’s go, leave the main tomb, quickly leave …
At this moment, everyone displayed a strong desire to live. Without any nonsense, they turned around and left.
Zha!
At this moment, everyone heard a rough and heavy rubbing sound from behind.
It was the sound of a bronze coffin being opened.
