Chapter 20 Chapter 20 Ascension

The ancestor of the jade-faced fox was far less ancient than that of Taoist Qianshan. She was covered by the divine light, and immediately let out a hoarse scream.Her face was contorted, and wisps of blood mist emerged from her body.Once the light of the Mani gem hits it, it will instantly turn into black ash.The jade-faced fox turned pale with fright, and flashed to a corner of the hall with a "whoosh".Seeing that Xue Liyang was seriously injured, I quickly took the Mani gem from her hand, and with a flash of white light, I covered the jade-faced fox again.The jade-faced fox hid several times in a row, more and more blood mist emerged from her body, and her movements became slower and slower. The screams echoed endlessly in the empty golden hall, and finally fell to the ground with a look on her face. It becomes similar to white paper again.

The fat man brought her up in front of the crowd, raised his engineering shovel, and said, "Jade-faced fox, don't you want my life? The fat man will make you a headless fox today!" After finishing speaking, he wanted a shovel swing down. Big Gold Tooth said: "Fatty Master, it would be better for her to cut off her head with a shovel, why not take her fox fur!" The fat man used the engineering shovel to push away the big gold teeth, and cursed: "You don't know the difference between a fucking ladyboy, hide away for me." At this time, I had helped Xue Liyang up. She vomited a lot of blood, and it was hard to tell whether the injury was serious.Xue Liyang stood up with support, and said to the fat man, "Wait a minute, I have something to ask her!"

The fat man carried the jade-faced fox over and pushed it in front of Xue Liyang. I saw the jade-faced fox's face was pale and lost his soul, and he was completely different from the previous high-spirited appearance. I said to Xue Liyang: "She has suffered on her own fault, and she deserves to die." Xue Liyang said: "The golden palace under the quicksand is too weird. If we don't ask her to understand, how can we get out?" I said, "Okay, now that things have come to an end, I'm not afraid that she won't talk about it!" The jade-faced fox knew that she couldn't escape, so she had to tell the truth, she said: "According to legend, a golden palace is buried under the quicksand, and only with the light of the Mani gem can one enter here, open the golden coffin, and become the owner of the treasure. The so-called treasure is actually the blood of the queen who enshrines the sun god, who rides on the emptiness without falling, touches the reality without falling, displaces form and disappears, changes without reason, understands good fortune, and turns sand into gold."

Da Jinya hugged the golden divine bird and said, "Sand turns gold? Is it all sand?" He licked it with his tongue and tapped it twice with his fingers. It was indeed pure gold.If you have this ability, don't you have as much gold as you want? I was very surprised: "The queen in the golden coffin can really turn sand into gold?" It is completely unbelievable, but seeing is believing, but I have to believe it. The jade-faced fox said: "Only those who are descendants of the Jushi Kingdom and have the blood of the primordial spirit can get the treasure, so it's useless for me to say that you know the secret of the treasure. It's because you don't believe it, and you don't blame me!"

Although we have to believe it, the more we think about it, the more we find it strange that things in the world are nothing more than the word "reason".What is "reason"?The sky is high in the southeast and the ground is in the north of Guangxi. It is common sense that the sun rises and the moon sets, and Yin and Yang are good fortune.There is no such thing as sand turning into gold.As for Disappearing Shadows, it's inconspicuous, who would take those words seriously?The ancients said: unreasonable, call it a "demon"!No matter how I think about it, I feel that the "treasure" mentioned by the jade-faced fox is heresy, almost evil.So I said to the jade-faced fox: "You have unreasonable delusions in your heart, but you don't weigh yourself. You always say that your ancestors are the ancestors of the Kushi Kingdom, and you still have some precious blood on your body. You think you are the descendants of the Kushi Kingdom. Can you be superior to others? I really don’t understand, what is there to be proud of? Don’t you eat whole grains? There are more than one hundred surnames here. Speaking of it, who hasn’t had three or five emperors? Carrots The surname is Hu, I said it without seeing anyone!"

The fat man said, "I still don't understand, what the hell is the jade-faced fox doing?" Da Jinya said: "Fatty Lord, with my Da Jinya's shallow knowledge, I think so. It turns out that in the golden palace under the quicksand, there is such a zombie beauty who has been dead for no less than five thousand years. The zombie beauty Possess an evil spirit, whoever the evil spirit attaches to, can remove form and disappear, turn sand into gold, in the old days, this is called the top fairy! The jade-faced fox is the top fairy, to put it bluntly, It’s got the Tao! Once it goes out, even my Buddha Tathagata can’t let it down, but this guy was unlucky. Ya is here to assist, are you afraid that you won’t be able to deal with this jade-faced fox? Isn’t this easy to catch, it’s simply effortless!”

Fatty and I have heard about Dingxianer. He used to be a good-natured person in the countryside, but he suddenly changed his tune. He talked about life and death, and hit everything. According to superstition , that means something is on his body.But those are all tricks of the countryside, what is it now?Turning sand into gold, is that a joke?Even if you cut off my head, I wouldn't believe it!Fat people may turn into thin people, but sand will never turn into gold! My hands were covered with the blood spit out by Xue Liyang, and the light in the Mani gem became brighter and brighter.I thought of the legend that Mani gems can illuminate all ignorant people, why the golden palace is spotless, and there is no human trace, only there is a zombie beauty in the golden coffin, why not use Mani gems to shine on it to see what it has eccentric?So he shined the light from the Mani gem on the female corpse.But it's also strange, the zombie that was illuminated by the bright moon-like light in the Mani gem immediately turned into a pile of sand.

The fat man grabbed a handful and twisted them in his hand, it was full of fine sand, and it was definitely not golden sand.Everyone was astonished. Looking at the golden bird held in his arms by the big golden teeth, it turned into yellow sand in the blink of an eye. He was reluctant to part with the golden bird, and scratched it with both hands in the yellow sand, calling: "My bird! O my golden bird!" With the white light as bright as the bright moon emitted from the Mani gemstone, the entire golden palace, the golden coffin, and the golden sacred tree all turned into sand!I looked up under the light as bright as day, only to realize that we were still in that boundless quicksand.The sea of ​​sand is vast, and there are no passages or palaces around. In front of it is a huge whirlpool of quicksand, a few small crawling snakes are running around on the sand, and there are more than ten lonely rock pillars in the distance. In the ancient country with any records left in the history books, the only remaining relics, perhaps no one will ever know how many years this ancient empire existed before the great flood, and who established it!And we have walked for so long, but we only circled in this sea of ​​sand. If it is an illusion, how could it be so real?The wound on his body was still throbbing with pain!If it's not an illusion, why has everything turned into sand?

I used the Mani gem to shine forward again. Under the light as bright as a bright moon, the golden palace turned into sand, and the jasper-like pool was a vortex in the vast sea of ​​sand. A large piece of meat, buried under quicksand.It can't see the outline shape, but it is huge, because it moves a little, and the quicksand around it moves with it. Everyone was shuddering. It turned out that the ancient country buried under the sea of ​​sand once enshrined an ancient god who was like a big piece of meat and was already half dead.After we fell into the abyss, even if we had just drank water, we would feel thirsty and unbearably thirsty. It was because the brain waves of the group were affected by it, and we couldn't wait to find water to drink. Under the circumstances at that time, let alone It's groundwater, and you can drink it even when you see camel urine.The water that the fat man dug up under the rock pillar was not groundwater at all, but blood from the body of the big piece of meat. No wonder it smelled like the bottom of a pot!We drank the blood of the ancient god, and our brain waves were synchronized with it, and then we saw the grand passage, the golden palace, the golden sacred tree, the golden divine bird, the golden coffin, all of these were completely ancient gods' dreams!The hallucinations are caused by the outside, so we don't feel pain, but the dream we walk into is from the inside out, making people feel extremely real!The Queen of the Golden Empire buried under the quicksand has insight into the truth of the big piece of meat, and its blood can make people enter the golden palace created by illusion.The queen used this to confuse people, making the world think that the queen who serves the sun god can "transform form and shadow, and turn sand into gold", which is what the jade-faced fox calls "treasure". In fact, it is only in a dream. Never really existed.The ancestor of the jade-faced fox, did not know where she learned this secret, and wanted to become the owner of the treasure, but she never thought that once she left the golden palace, all the skills of Tongtian would become cakes.

But the most frightening thing is that our experiences in dreams are by no means meaningless. The ancient god under the sea of ​​sand has consciousness, but what it wants to do is beyond human's guess.It may also understand that the body is about to die, and it is trapped in the quicksand and cannot move, so it led us into its dream, in order to make the jade-faced fox its puppet, complete the ceremony, and bring its consciousness out!We fell into the boundless sea of ​​sand, and if we don’t drink the water under the rock pillars, we’ll be fine. If we drink this water, we’ll never get out again. What we see and touch is all at the mercy of the ancient gods under the quicksand. Fortunately, Xue Liyang has a Mani gem in his hand, and with the light of the universe that opened up chaos, it illuminates the golden palace created by the illusion of the ancient gods!

I didn't think about it that much at the time, and the more I thought about it afterwards, the more frightened I became. When several people saw the giant under the sea of ​​sand, they were all frightened and stunned. Because everything happened so suddenly, they couldn't understand it for a while. But I also realized that something was wrong, the Golden Palace was all made of sand!The jade-faced fox saw that the treasure she was trying to find turned into sand in an instant, and fell headlong into the quicksand in a burst of urgency. At this time, the quicksand under his feet could not stop shaking, and the vortex was rapidly expanding.The fat man said: "Old Hu, if you don't leave, you will fall into it!" Da Jinya asked me, "Do you want to bring the jade-faced fox with you?" , she is also noncommittal.The fat man said to Da Jinya: "You dig a hole and jump yourself, do you still care about her life?" Da Jinya said: "The jade-faced fox has roots, leaves and power. Take her back and let her subordinates pay to redeem her." People!" The fat man thought it would be better than running for nothing, so he carried the jade-faced fox on his shoulders.Under the light of the Mani gem, a group of people desperately fled to the edge of the sandy sea. The light emitted from the Mani gemstone shines like daytime, even though the wind and sand are strong, it will not cause you to lose your bearings.Several people ran all the way, and found that the edge of the quicksand seemed to meet the dark green sea, but they couldn't hear the sound of the surging tide, and it was only when they got closer that they realized that there was endless gas smoke in front of them.It is said that when the gas density reaches a certain level, an explosion will occur, but the gas under the quicksand seems to have solidified, and it looks like a dark green sea from a distance.It turns out that the ancient country buried under the quicksand still has a sea of ​​gas in the depths, but the gas density is so high that it didn't come up, otherwise the torches in our hands would have already detonated the gas! The fat man threw down the jade-faced fox, wiped the beads of sweat off his head, and said in surprise, "I dare say there is a deep green sea below, but there is no water in this sea, it's full of gas!" Big Gold Tooth was out of breath, he lay on the ground and said: "God wants to take me in on purpose, push down the gourd and scoop it up, and there will be another wave after one wave is not settled, and there is no way to escape!" Seeing that there was no way to go, I raised the Mani gemstone and looked up at it. A few hundred meters above my head was an upside-down rock formation, and I couldn't fly out even if I had two wings.Turning his head and looking back, the vortex in the quicksand was still expanding, and the big piece of meat below seemed to be coming out.I thought to myself, "It's better to be a piece of jade than a piece of paper, and I'll be dragged back to death." At that time, I gritted my teeth, took out the Zippo lighter, and looked at the few people around me.Da Jinya quickly said: "Master Hu, you can't do it!" The fat man said: "Come on, have a good time!" Xue Liyang said to me: "Detonate the sea of ​​​​gas, and the air waves will break the ground. There is a chance." I said: "Even if there is a glimmer of life, it is better than sitting and waiting for death. There is a time and place in life, and death or life is up to fate!" I'm afraid that the more I think about it, the less I dare to take risks, not to mention the crisis, I'm not allowed to think too much.After speaking, I immediately threw the lighter forward, greeted Fatty and Big Gold Tooth, grabbed Xue Liyang's hand tightly, turned around and ran towards the rock pillar behind me.After running for a few steps, the sea of ​​gas exploded. The explosion was really extraordinary. It shocked the sky and moved the ground. Maybe the sound was too loud, but I couldn’t hear it. An invisible giant hand threw it up, and the viscera turned upside down. If it weren't for the stone roof on the quicksand monument that effectively blocked the shock wave, everyone would have been blown to pieces! The violent explosion of the gas split the ground, and the ruins of the ancient country buried under the quicksand were also pushed up by the shock wave.It was already daytime above, the wind and sand were whistling, the distant Cangshan Mountain was undulating, surrounded by yellow sand, just at the junction of the desert and the mountains, the light of the Mani gem quickly converged, and the ground that was split from it closed immediately.Several people fell in the desert above, all stunned, with blood in their noses and ears, and they couldn't get up after struggling for a long time.My throat was sweet and I felt like I was going to vomit blood, and then my eyes went dark, and I didn't know anything.The time when I lost consciousness may have passed for a few hours, or it may not have been long. When I opened my eyes again, everything I saw was blurred and out of focus. I turned my eyeballs vigorously to barely see. see something.I spat out the sand in my mouth, exhausted my last strength, turned my head and looked around, there were Xue Liyang, Fatty, Big Gold Tooth, Jade-faced Fox and others, all lying in the desert without moving, some of them had already Let the sand bury half of it, in addition to a few rock pillars, and some minced meat, it seems that the ancient god who was buried under the quicksand collapsed into pieces. My previous experience flashed before my eyes like a revolving lantern, the ancient city of Yuansha full of death, the secret curse temple that can turn people into living ghosts, the kingdom of gold in nightmares, and the terrifying sea of ​​gas. I'm sorry how we persevered along the way. Although we didn't take out a single weapon during this trip, we were able to escape from the sky and get our lives back without letting the jade-faced fox succeed. It's already a misfortune Fortunately, let alone the Mani gem enshrined by the ancestor Yang of Sydney. It's not that the fat man and I listened to the slander of the big gold tooth, and we didn't take out the Xixia gold book from the Xuan Palace of the Qin Dynasty, and we didn't attract the jade-faced fox, so we made up for the mistakes we made , Fate did not die and peeled off a layer of skin.It's easy to start well and end hard for someone who eats the food of Daodou. Now that I've been a human being in two lifetimes, I can accept it as soon as I see it, and then I will go far away, and I don't have to live in fear anymore. I was thinking wildly when Xueli Yang not far away stood up. She lowered her head and looked around, as if she was looking for something.In the wind and sand, I can't see her face, but she should be able to see me here, what is she looking for?But seeing Xue Liyang searched for a while, picked up the Mani gem from the sand, suddenly raised his hand, and threw the Mani gem into the distance.This move was completely beyond my expectation. There was a lot of wind and sand, and Mani gemstones fell by my side, and it was possible to find them. If I threw them so far away, I couldn’t see where they landed. Then don’t even try to pick them up. Why did Xue Liyang throw them away? Drop the Mani gem?It was a sacred object enshrined by the ancestors of the Taoists who moved mountains. We escaped death, suffered a lot of hard work, suffered a lot of shocks, and managed to dig out the Mani gemstone from the Xixia murals. Why did she throw it away? I couldn't speak, moved my stiff limbs, shook off the sand on my body, and crawled towards Xue Liyang with all my strength.Xue Liyang noticed that I was moving, and when she turned her head, two dark eyes looked at me.I was almost dumbfounded, Xue Liyang's eyes, no matter how you look at them, they are zombies in the golden palace!The ancient prophecy has come true, the half-dead chunk of meat trapped in the sea of ​​sand still escaped, and Xue Liyang has been demonized!The ancient gods of the kingdom of gold can't just find a living person and bring their corpse back to life. The older the bloodline, the more suitable it is to be its body. The jade-faced fox is the second choice, and Xue Liyang is the most suitable person.I was negligent and didn't think of this!A little distracted, Xue Liyang turned his head and left, the wind and sand filled the air, and he disappeared in a blink of an eye!
