Chapter 251 Water Cave
Chapter 251 Water Cave
Arriving at the dense forest above the mountain behind the village, Lu Li discovered that it was full of sacrificial items.
I guess this is the dense forest leading to the Worm Valley.
The mountain ahead should be Zhalong Mountain. To go into the Insect Valley, you have to pass through the water cave below it.
If you are alone or with someone else, just fly in directly.
But now we have to take Chen Yulou and the others with us, so it’s not realistic to fly in.
While it's still day, we have to look for any usable boats near the village.
I think with such a big village and water nearby, there should be necessities such as boats.
After taking a look towards Zhalong Mountain, Lu Li discovered that the mountain was actually located in a natural dragon vein.
The Yun Mansion has a Feng Shui pattern where dragons come from eight directions, and the Zhalong Mountain happens to be located at the eye of a dragon.
No wonder King Xian went to such great lengths to bury himself nearby.
Then I remembered that in the plot, King Xian buried his body in Tai Sui's belly.
This corresponds to the burial method among the 72 burial methods.
A carrier is one who carries things and holds things, just like a boat carrying things.
The boat and the object are not originally the same thing, but appreciating each other from beginning to end will bring great and long-lasting blessings.
It seems that King Xian really knows a lot about burial techniques.
After returning to the village, Lu Li asked Zhang Qishan and the others to go out and see if there were any usable boats.
It doesn't need to be too big, as long as it can carry a dozen of them.
Seeing Lu Li coming back, Shi Shaojian came to his side.
"Junior brother, I think the feng shui around here seems unusual.
I don’t know why, but every time I watch it I get a chill down my spine.”
“There’s something strange in this mountain range, we just need to find King Xian’s tomb.
Don’t do anything else for now.”
Lu Li did not tell the truth. He couldn't tell Shi Shaojian that there was a dragon vein here.
And judging from the situation, it is a living dragon vein.
Unexpectedly, Liu Ji did not drain away all the dragon veins in Shenzhou back then.
Come to think of it, the person in charge of this area back then was Zhu's most trusted adopted son Mu Ying.
Mu Ying had always been on good terms with Zhu Biao. He even died two months after hearing about Zhu Biao's death.
How could Liu Ji possibly touch the dragon vein branch of Yun Mansion?
Er Yuehong had prepared the meal and came to call the two of them.
After eating, the group sat in the stone house and chatted.
Chen Yulou told a few people about his experiences traveling all over the country and fighting in recent years.
Everyone was listening attentively.
In fact, except Chenpi and Shi Shaojian, everyone here has special skills.
The seemingly inconspicuous Er Yuehong was even born into a family of tomb robbers.
But now Xiangling is powerful, and there is no other family capable of moving the tombs of kings and princes except Xiangling.
Even if the others want to take action, they don’t have the strength to do so at the moment.
Unless several groups of people team up together, people's minds are unpredictable and accidents are too likely to happen when teaming up.
This was also one of the reasons why Er Yuehong readily agreed to Lu Li and Chen Yulou.
Having a backer will make everything much easier in the future.
"Let me tell you, a centipede that big jumped out from below. My goodness, that centipede had six big wings.
It could even fly, and sweat started to break out on my head.
The most important thing is that the guy is invulnerable to swords and guns, and is immune to water and fire. No one would believe it unless they see it with their own eyes.
Fortunately, the beast was finally dealt with by Taoist Master Lu.
Otherwise, who knows what might happen.”
Chen Yulou talked incessantly about what happened in Pingshan that year.
Even Zhang Qishan and the others pricked up their ears.
When they heard that there were monsters, they were also very surprised.
I wondered what I would do if I encountered this situation.
After thinking about it, I still feel that if I encountered such a thing, I would be in danger of death.
Including after coming here, the fighting that happened in the village today was isolated by the formation.
But they still saw the blood mist when it floated out.
The strange fog sent a chill down one's spine at a glance.
If only I and others came here, we might get caught.
It seems that it would be safest to have someone to hold on to in the future.
The sun was about to set, and the few people found two small wooden boats outside the village gate.
It's just right for carrying twelve or thirteen people across the water.
Lu Li put the wooden boat directly into the storage talisman.
If the storage talisman had not been upgraded, it would not be able to hold such a big thing.
The next morning, the sun was already high in the sky.
A dozen people ate a few mouthfuls of noodles and then packed up their belongings and prepared to set off.
Lu Li brought them to the back mountain of the village.
There is a large dense forest here.
There are also some animal heads hung in the woods for sacrifice.
The environment seemed very strange with the wet fog in the forest.
“This is the place where the people of the village hold sacrifices.
Why are you here? "
Zhang Qishan asked curiously.
"You'll find out why if you walk forward here."
Lu Li smiled mysteriously and did not explain to anyone.
"Morrow is speaking in an ambiguous way. Their ancestors must be buried in front of them."
Chen Yulou made it up casually, and he didn't know that he was right.
After walking for a short while, everyone finally arrived at the water cave at the foot of Zhalong Mountain.
Fortunately, Lu Li asked them to find a boat yesterday, otherwise they would have been staring at this dark water cave.
The only way for everyone to cross was to build a raft.
"Hey! Master Lu, it seems you are familiar with the route. Did you come here yesterday without telling us?"
Chen Yulou recalled that Lu Li disappeared for a while yesterday with his flying sword.
When we come back, let’s go find a boat.
Lu Li released two small boats.
"Yes, I was here yesterday, so I asked everyone to prepare the boats in advance."
“It really saves a lot of time.”
Er Yuehong said with a smile that he felt it was much less of a hassle to be with Lu Li.
Lu Li will prepare everything for everyone in advance.
As soon as the boat entered the water, everyone jumped on.
The masters of Kunlun and Xiangling Halls each took the oars and started to paddle.
As soon as we entered the water cave, the light became dim.
Fortunately, everyone had considered this situation in advance and prepared enough torches in case there was not enough light.
The situation around the ship can still be seen clearly.
Lu Li also kept scanning the surroundings with his spiritual sense.
At his level, light no longer affects his vision.
The boat went deeper and deeper into the water cave, and some strange things began to hang on both sides of the cave.
"What is this?"
Chen Yulou asked. He had been to many big fights and had seen mummies and human head lamps.
But it is a bit strange to see such hanging human figures outside the tomb.
"This thing is in human form, so there must be a living person inside it. I heard that the art of witchcraft was popular in southern Xinjiang in ancient times.
Could it be this thing? "
Zhang Qishan was knowledgeable and could get the general idea at a glance.
He wasn't quite sure because he had never seen it in real life.
"Those are the terracotta warriors. They are all slaves who were stuffed with insect eggs while alive. They are placed here to prevent tomb robbers. There are probably tens of thousands of human chrysalis caves like this.
You must not touch it, otherwise something might be startled and it would be very troublesome.
We are in the water after all.”
Lu Li confirmed Zhang Qishan's statement.
Everyone on the two ships took a look at the terracotta warriors. They couldn't help but imagine how desperate these people must have been when they were put inside.
Fortunately, except Shi Shaojian, everyone else here is a tomb robber.
I have seen more cruel ones, but the numbers were not this large.
After a few glances, he no longer paid attention to it.
But we also have a better understanding of King Xian's cruelty.
