Chapter 39 Chapter 2 Secret Road

Lian Xing, Da Kui and Fourth Aunt Li were all taken aback. No one thought that there was a dark cave in the forbidden dungeon of the Moving Mountain School. Lian Xing had a flash of inspiration, thinking of the images of the four spirits he saw when he and Da Kui sneaked into the forbidden area when he was young.The images of the four spirits are Qinglong, Baihu, Suzaku and Xuanwu.According to Tie Pobei, the statues of the Four Spirits are generally used to suppress tombs. In the tombs of emperors, the statues of the Four Spirits are often engraved on the tomb door, the two walls of the tomb passage, or in the tomb chamber, so as to suppress the corpse and eliminate evil.The statue of the Four Spirits was built here, is it also for the town tomb?If it is really a town tomb, then there must be an ancient tomb of an emperor under this forbidden area.Could this hole be the entrance to the ancient tomb?

Da Kui saw that Lian Xing was in a daze, seeming to be concentrating on thinking, stepped forward and gave him a push, and said, "Let's eat first, and then go inside to have a look after we're done." Lian Xing nodded.The two sat aside, took out the stewed beef and two big bowls of rice from Aunt Li's basket, and ate them hungrily. After eating, Da Kui patted his belly and said with a smile: "The food cooked by my mother is still delicious." Lian Xing also echoed: "The stewed beef made by my aunt is so delicious, I haven't eaten it for a long time."

Fourth Aunt Li smiled and said, "It's delicious and I'll make it for you tomorrow." Da Kui said: "Mother, you should go back first. Lian Xing and I will go to the cave to have a look." Fourth Aunt Li became curious and said, "I'll go down with you to have a look." Da Kui frowned and said, "Mother, what are you trying to coax?" Fourth Aunt Li glared at Da Kui, and said, "When I go in, I'll make a fuss. Don't forget, your mother is also a person with martial arts. Look down on your mother, don't you?" Da Kui smiled bitterly and said, "How dare I, my mother. I'm just worried about the danger in this cave. If something goes wrong, I can't explain it to my father."

Fourth Aunt Li waved her hand and said, "Don't worry, your mother has a sense of propriety." Da Kui and Lian Xing looked at each other and smiled wryly at each other.The two had no choice but to let Fourth Aunt Li follow into the cave. Da Kui took out three sticks of fire from his pocket and handed them to Aunt Li and Lian Xing.The three of them lighted fires separately and moved forward slowly. The cave is not high, and the three of them bent their bodies slightly in it. After walking a few feet deep and shallow, a pair of green eyes suddenly appeared in front of them, looking at them motionlessly!

All three were shocked.The green light turned out to be coming from the eyes of a dark monster.The monster was black and furry all over, like a dog but not a dog, and it was much bigger than an ordinary mastiff.It lay motionless in the darkness, its eyes fixed on them. The three of them were stared at by the monster until their scalps went numb.The black monster didn't move, and the three of them didn't dare to move forward rashly. They were in a dilemma for a while.While hesitating, the black monster suddenly jumped up and jumped in front of the three of them. The three of them were horrified and retreated hastily.The black monster didn't chase after them, it just roared at them, and there was no hostility in the roar.The three of them were amazed, staring at each other, Da Kui suddenly said in a low voice: "Lian Xing, do you think this monster looks like the corpse mastiff in your mother's house?"

Lian Xing took a closer look, and the black monster really looked like the corpse mastiff in his mother's house.Lian Xing's heart moved, and he slowly walked towards the corpse mastiff.Like a psychic, the corpse mastiff slowly walked towards Lian Xing. The corpse mastiff walked up to Lian Xing's side, rubbing its head and neck against Lian Xing's body, as if he had known Lian Xing for a long time.Lian Xing stretched out his hand to touch it, but the corpse mastiff didn't resist and let him touch it. Da Kui said happily: "It seems that it is really the corpse mastiff in your family."

Lian Xing nodded, his heart suddenly sank, and he was faintly worried.He knew that the corpse mastiff was always by his mother's side, never leaving her.Now that the corpse mastiff is here, is it possible that the mother is nearby at this time?Or something unexpected happened? Lian Xing didn't dare to think any further.The corpse mastiff also seemed to sense his uneasiness, raised its head to mid-air, and whined a few times.Lian Xing couldn't tell whether it was Bu Ji or Bu Ji in the corpse mastiff's voice.After pondering for a moment, he thought: It is better to investigate the cave first, and then go to find the whereabouts of the mother.Then he greeted Aunt Li and Da Kui, and continued to walk inside.

The corpse mastiff followed closely behind Lian Xing, as if he had found his master and was reluctant to leave. The burrow is not too long.If you walk more than ten feet, you have come to the end.At the end of the cave, a black lacquered coffin rushed forward, standing upright, blocking the way!
