Chapter 2 Chapter Two Seventh Level Pagoda

Even the old man was startled, and the human skull rolled on the ground.When I looked closely, it turned out to be a head carved from stone, on which eyebrows, eyes, mouth and nose could be vaguely seen.Below the neck of the stone is a slanted fracture, which does not seem to be caused by man. Looking at the water cellar again, there was a black hole the size of a bowl where the stone head was pulled out just now.The cave was dark and bottomless. Old Man Lian and Wu Zhen looked at each other in blank dismay.Wu Zhen picked up a stone and threw it in.Only the sound of stones and bones rolling down could be heard, the sound became softer and softer, and finally disappeared.

Wu Zhen looked at the old man Lian: "Father, what is it here? Why is there a hole? Should we still dig it?" The old man Lian shook his head and said, "I've lived here for fifty years, and I've never seen this hole before." Looking at the dark hole, after a while, curiosity finally prevailed, and he gritted his teeth and said : "Dig, let's see what's in this hole." The two picks flew up and down, and within a short time, a large hole of one foot square had been dug out of the hole, and there seemed to be an empty room under the hole. The two discussed for a while, and decided to go down to find out.

"Traveling carefully is a ten-thousand-year boat", even the old man grabbed a cock, tied a rope to the chicken leg, threw the chicken down, and after a cup of tea, he lifted the chicken up, and the cock Still romping. Wu Zhen went back to the house and took out a bag. From the bag, he took out a candle, a fire bag, a fire knife and flint, a black rope, an unnamed iron tool, a black donkey's hoof, a small bag of glutinous rice, and two circles. He took out the barrel, and took out two pendants from it.After wearing one for himself, he handed the other to Old Man Lian, and put the rest into the bag again.

The old man saw that the pendant looked like wood but not wood, and it had a strange appearance. It was engraved with a ghost-like human figure, holding a sword in his right hand, trying to chop, and raising his left foot to kick.The old man Lian had never seen Wu Zhen have such a thing before, and asked in doubt: "What is this?" Wu Zhen said: "Father, this is to ward off evil spirits, you wear one, if you encounter anything in this hole, you can also block it." Even the old man was dubious, hesitated for a while, and put it on anyway. Wu Zhen lit the torch, and the old man Lian jumped into the cave one after the other.

As soon as the foot hit the ground, dust flew everywhere.The two hurriedly stretched out their hands to cover their mouths and noses.After a while, the dust slowly fell back.The two looked carefully, and saw that this place seemed to be the top floor of a tower building, the space was not large, there was a spiral staircase on the left, and a white skeleton leaned against the wall on the right. Even the old man was taken aback.I saw that the clothes on the skeleton were already in tatters.Wearing a Taoist crown on his head, the muscles on his face have already been eaten away by insects and ants.Some ancient scriptures were scattered obliquely on the ground. The pages of the scriptures were yellow, as if they had been aged for a long time.Under the light of the fire, there seemed to be words engraved on the wall next to the skeleton.

Wu Zhen shook his head and walked over.I saw that the wall was densely engraved with words from top to bottom.Wu Zhen and his entourage looked over, and the more he looked, the more excited he became, and the hand holding Huozhe couldn't help trembling slightly.Even the old man was puzzled, and when he came to the front, he saw a line of big characters on the top of the wall: A certain family claimed to be the king of kings, but died here.Time, luck, fate, what can I say! The handwriting is vigorous and simple, dignified and powerful, but the meaning of anger in it seems to break through the wall.

The following line of fine print: Yang Tianding of a certain family was born in troubled times, and he was reckless, and he obtained the art of dragon and tiger without asking.Traveling across the world for more than 60 years, without a single defeat, and at a rare age, I got the wonderful book "Qingwu Jing", and then I realized that there are many unsolved mysteries in life, and the theory of geomantic omen is not absurd.I have been deeply involved in it for many years.Later, he made a great wish to travel all over Kyushu to search for dragon acupuncture points, discover the ancient tombs in the deep mountains and the Minglou in the vast sea, and explore the ancient tombs in the world for ten years. There are countless rare treasures in the collection.It is a drawing to describe the shape, and it is written on parchment. Mr. Yu Youzhenxuan also painted on it the style of Kuixing kicking and fighting, which is called "Kuixing Kicking and Fighting Picture". Stealing ancient tombs underground, uncovering treasures in the dark night, he keeps one pearl for himself, and distributes the other six pearls to others in the same family, and the key to unlocking the pearls is also hidden in Yu.Those who get the beads have the beads but no plans, and they will not destroy the thousand-year-old tomb. Today, under Yu Jiuquan, he is worthy of facing the ancestors.

Yu practiced yellow and white techniques hard since he was a child, but in this pagoda, a serious disaster suddenly occurred, the poisonous snake bit back, and he died here, and his fate is numbered.This pagoda is the seven-level pagoda of Buddhism, the first floor must not be entered, remember, remember. The following does not seem to be finished.Wu Zhen walked up to the skeleton, and saw that the bones of the skeleton had turned black, and there was a black air faintly exuding from the white bones.The skeleton clenched his hands, as if he was holding something.Wu Zhen's eyes glowed, his breathing became short of breath, and he walked over.

Wu Zhen walked up to the skeleton, and under the light of the fire, there was indeed a faint red light from between the skeleton's left finger bones.Wu Zhen handed over the torch to his left hand, and with his right hand he broke open the skull's phalanx, and a piece of ruddy and shiny precious jade appeared in front of him.I saw that the whole body of the precious jade was crystal clear and transparent. From the outside to the inside, the red became deeper and deeper, until it reached the center of the precious jade, it turned into red sandalwood. Wu Zhen broke the skeleton's right hand again, and a dark bead fell to the ground.

Wu Zhen reached out and picked up the ruby ​​and black beads. Even the old man was stunned, but when he saw Wu Zhen picking up the precious jade black bead, he coughed: "Zhener, this is not very good." Wu Zhen stared at Hongyu Heizhu, and said slowly: "Father, you don't know, this senior Yang Tianding is also from our faction." Even the old man frowned: "Your faction?" Wu Zhen raised his head and looked at the old man Lian: "Father, to be honest, I am Captain Mojin. This king of all kings is a fellow of my Mojinmen, and it is also a kind of fate to come here today. Take it away Baoyu, this senior will not blame me."

The old man Lian said: "Captain Touching Jin? Huh, that sounds nice, he must be a grave robber." His words were very displeased. Wu Zhen nodded: "That's right. That's the case, and I don't want to hide it anymore." Even the old man snorted and didn't speak. Wu Zhen put the piece of precious jade and black pearl into his arms, and reached out to feel for the skeleton's clothes.The clothes on the skeleton were rotten at the touch of a touch, from head to toe, but this time they found nothing, with a slight disappointment on their face.Wu Zhen said: "Father, let's go to the next floor." Even the old man nodded.With Wu Zhen in front and the old man behind, the two walked down the stairs to the next floor.As soon as he turned the corner of the stairs, he saw a dark thing lying there at the end of the room, with a pair of eyes shining faintly.
