Tomb Raider: The comprehension is against the sky, and the achievement is indestructible

Chapter 103: Toad's Mouth, Insect's Way, Nine Bends and Turns
Huba and Wang Pangzi were also pleasantly surprised when they heard what Shirley Yang said.

The Zhuchen Pearl is the key to curing the ghost cave curse on them, but it is indeed hidden in the tomb of King Xian!
"Great! As long as we find the Zhuchen Pearl, we will be free from the curse!"

"What are we waiting for? Let's dig up the tomb of the old Zongzi, the King of Xian!"

"Don't worry!"

Shirley Yang stared at the Zhenling Book, and her expression suddenly changed slightly:
"Behind this Tomb-Controlling Genealogy...how come the Tomb of King Xian is built in the sky?"

However, on a whole relief on the back of the Tomb-Suppressing Chronicle, a magnificent palace was suspended in the sky, surrounded by neon clouds, and immortals and spirit beasts were circling. It looked exactly like a fairyland in heaven!

The palace is a sacred road, with towering and steep mountains on both sides of the road, making the tomb of King Xian look like a castle in the sky.

When Huba saw the Tomb Suppression Book on the back, he couldn't help but sneer:

"What palace in heaven? It seems to me that old Prince Xian is so desperate to become a god that he exaggerated the Tomb-Suppressing Genealogy on purpose!"

Shirley Yang frowned and said:

"Many clues say that the tomb of King Xian is inside the water dragon halo. What's going on here?"

Su Mo smiled faintly and said:

"The so-called water dragon may just be a waterfall, and the water dragon halo is nothing more than the neon produced by the waterfall under the sunlight. It was also called the Immortal Bridge by the ancients. Nowadays, many so-called eminent monks boast of turning into rainbows when they pass away. In fact, it is just a desire to become immortals!"

When Shirley Yang and others heard Su Mo's words, the shock they felt about the Tomb-Slaying Records instantly lessened a lot.

Fatty Wang grinned and said:

"The old Prince Xian is really crazy about becoming an immortal. This old guy is so stupid and incompetent. When I dig up his tomb, I will chop off his head and kick it like a ball!"

After a discussion, the few people left the couple banyan trees and continued to move forward. After walking northwest for about four or five hours, they saw a large area of ​​flower trees in front of them. Countless butterflies were circling and dancing among the flowers, and a stream was flowing through the flowers. The scenery was extremely beautiful.

Huba held the human skin map in his hands and quickly determined that the entrance to the Worm Valley was ahead based on nearby reference objects.

As they passed through the flowers, trees and streams, they saw more and more ancient ruins in front of them. The two bare stone mountains at the entrance of the Insect Valley looked very dazzling and abrupt, and they looked like the bulging eyeballs of two toads!
Huba glanced at the human skin map, pointed at the toad on the map and said:
"This is the entrance to the Worm Valley. These two stone mountains are the eyes of the toad, and the entrance to the Worm Valley is the toad's mouth!"

At this time, Fatty Wang patted the compass in his hand and wondered:
"Huh? Is this compass broken? Why is it spinning randomly?"

Shirley Yang smiled and pointed to two bare rocky mountains:
"These two stones should be meteoric iron, which is rich in magnetism. That's why your compass will go astray here!"

Fatty Wang suddenly realized and thought for a moment before saying:

"Could it be that the American plane that was delivering arms crashed near the couple's banyan trees because of the magnetic field interference from these two stone mountains?"

Su Mo took a look at the two stones and nodded:

“That’s true, but the magnetic field here is actually very chaotic, and it’s not just because of these two stone mountains!”

Through the Ziwei Visualization Method and the Taiyin Visualization Method, he has discovered that the magnetic field around the entire Tomb of King Xian is very strange. On the other side of the couple banyan trees is a deep vortex of a cave eye, which continuously absorbs the spiritual energy of heaven and earth to nourish the ancient corpse of the python guarding the cave eye. There is an invisible horizontal line near the entrance to the Worm Valley, cutting off all connections with the outside world.

Su Mo knew that this horizontal line was the insect-blocking path where King Xian was buried, used to isolate snakes, insects, rats and ants from the outside world, so as to prevent them from entering the mausoleum area and destroying his own mausoleum.

After passing the Broken Worm Road, the terrain gradually became open, like the shape of a trumpet, which was very similar to the situation in the toad's mouth on the map.

As they were walking, suddenly a clump of lush flowers and plants in front of them started to move without any wind, and the leaves began to dance, which scared Fatty Wang who was nearby. He pulled the bolt of the Chicago typewriter with a snap. Shirley Yang quickly raised her hand to stop him:
"Don't move, this is just dancing grass. Once it is startled by humans or animals, it will shake its leaves like dancing. It's not dangerous!"

Huba and the others were all feeling strange and interested as they looked at the large clump of dancing grass. They saw the grass leaves shaking like grass ghosts, and finally gradually separated into two clumps, revealing a fiery red stone gourd more than one meter high in the middle!

Hubayi couldn't help but be surprised:
"Why is it a gourd instead of a toad statue? According to the Sixteen-Character Yin-Yang Feng Shui Secret Art, we should build an altar or a clan temple here!"

At this time, Fatty Wang suddenly said in front:

"Old Hu, there's a toad here!"

Su Mo and the others walked over quickly, and saw that right in the direction of the fiery red stone gourd, covered by vines, was a shrine dedicated to the mountain god.

This mountain god temple has long been dilapidated and entangled by countless vines. Only the general framework remains, and the wood inside has long been rotten. There are two clay statues of mountain ghosts in the main hall, both with green faces and fangs. One holds a fiery red gourd, and the other holds a toad in both hands.

Huba suddenly realized that the toad and gourd were the magical beasts of the mountain god!

After passing a green stone barrier in the middle of the temple, there were nine huge momentum toads placed horizontally at the end of the temple.

Huba looked at the nine momentum toads one by one and found that they really contained the Nine Bends and Loops Technique in the Sixteen-Character Yin-Yang Feng Shui Secret Technique. He suddenly had an idea and said to Su Mo:
"Master, I know how to open this. Let me do it!"

Su Mo knew that he was familiar with the remaining parts of the Sixteen-Character Yin-Yang Feng Shui Secret Art, and this mechanism would not be difficult for him, so he nodded.

Hubayi then asked Fatty for help. According to the number of nine turns, from left to right, he rotated the nine stone toads one by one in accordance with the formula of "shield".

After doing all this, the mountain temple remained unchanged and no tunnel appeared.

Huba couldn't help scratching his head:

"This is clearly the Nine-Turn Loop Technique, how come..."

Fatty Wang laughed and said:
"Old Hu, your method doesn't work anymore!"

Su Mo smiled and said:
"The entrance is not here!"

After saying that, Su Mo turned around and walked outside the mountain temple, only to see that the huge fiery red stone gourd outside had actually split into two, and a tunnel entrance appeared from under the base.

“It turns out the entrance is outside!”

Huba opened his mouth in surprise:

“I can’t believe it!”

Fatty Wang laughed and said:
"Old Hu, even though you know how to open the door, you are still far behind Master!"

"That's right, I definitely can't compare with Master!"

As they talked, everyone waited until the foul air in the tunnel had almost dissipated, and then walked into the tunnel. They found that the tunnel was dark and damp, and the atmosphere inside was extremely cold, and it was pitch dark inside.

Fatty Wang then took out two cold flames, lit them and threw them forward. As the cold flames lit up, a fluorescent light suddenly flashed in front.

However, there were countless bones piled up on both sides of the tomb passage, including human and animal bones, and many ivory tusks, just placed there, looking very random.

These bones had already decayed for thousands of years, all of them had a grayish-white hue, flashing fluorescent light under the cold flames, looking dark, cold, and full of weirdness and horror!
