In the mist of the stone bridge in front of us, there must be something that we cannot see with the naked eye.That's why Shi Jin told me to use Yin Yang eyes.
For my Taoism, Shi Jin admires it very much, but I don't have this ability, relying on Taoism to open my yin and yang eyes, I can only use some props.In addition, even if I can do it, Liang Yue and Qu Kangcheng cannot.I also want them to see what the hell is on the bridge too.
I dug out the medicine bottle from my bag, it was only the size of an eyedrop bottle, and I could use it as normal eye drops.
I handed the medicine to Liang Yue, pointed to my left eye, and signaled her to put a drop in it.
Liang Yue understood, and didn't ask me what the potion was for. She raised her head and dripped a drop of cow's tears into her left eye.
Then I handed the potion to Qu Kangcheng and asked him to do the same.
Although Qu Kangcheng didn't understand, but out of complete trust in me, he dripped a drop of that liquid medicine into his left eye without hesitation.
Then I took the vial myself and put a drop in my left eye.
I just heard Uncle San say that this thing is amazing, and I have never used it myself.This is also the first try.
When the medicine dripped into the eyes, the feeling was similar to that of normal eye drops, it was cold and cold.But after the cold, a sense of warmth followed.It's just that this warm feeling is not too serious, and it is completely bearable.I think it's because the potion has burned away the barrier film.
After these two sensations, the eyes returned to normal, and there was no other sensation.
This turned out to be much simpler than I expected, and makes me wonder if the potion will work at all.
And the little mason Shi Jin has been looking at us with a strange look, probably he is also very curious about what is in this little bottle.
I handed the medicine bottle forward, and the little mason shook his head hastily, waved his hand again, and pointed to the stone bridge.
I nodded and called Liang Yue and Qu Kangcheng to look over the bridge.
Of course, we all covered our right eyes and just looked through the left eye with some medicine.
I was still doubting the effect of Uncle San's potion before, but when I looked at the bridge, I found two scenes that were completely different from before.
It turned out that we saw that the stone bridge was no different from the Qianzhou Bridge we walked by, but when we looked at it again this time, we found that the bridge had changed its appearance and became extremely dilapidated.
Not only were the railings of the bridge broken, but the stone slabs on the bridge were also broken a lot. The broken stones were scattered on the bridge, and there was almost no place to walk.
Not only that, but the stone bridge has tilted to an extremely dangerous angle, and it is about to collapse.
Chapter 1097
I wonder if you have seen the Leaning Tower of Pisa?A famous building in Italy, the Leaning Tower of Pisa is said to have a tilt angle of nearly 4 degrees, and the top floor protrudes nearly five meters.
And the stone bridge we saw, the angle of inclination has far exceeded the angle of the leaning tower.
Watching the bridge fall down, but supporting it in an incredible posture, maintaining a weird balance.The bridge gives me the feeling that even if a feather falls on it, the bridge may collapse.
This is a complete broken bridge.
And it's still the kind of broken bridge that can only be seen with yin and yang eyes.To prove this point, I closed my left eye and looked with my right eye. The bridge was still standing tall in the mist, and there was no sign of dilapidation at all.
But what is the purpose of the little stonemason showing us the broken bridge?
When we saw the broken bridge, we all had a look of surprise on our faces.These should all be expected by the little mason.
Seeing that we all saw it, the little mason patted my shoulder lightly and motioned us to follow him.
I think what he means is that there is something for us to see.So the three of us followed the little mason, bypassed the bridge head, walked a few steps down the bridge and stopped.
Shi Jin pointed to my eyes, then pointed to the bridge.
I knew he was telling us to look under the bridge.I felt that if he asked us to come in a serious manner, he must not just let us see the broken bridge.
We hurriedly closed our right eye and opened our left eye to look under the bridge.
Under the bridge are still the piers of the broken bridge, most of which have been damaged, and the stones are scattered all over the place. The stone bridge is tilted, and the piers can no longer support the stone bridge.
I looked at it for a while and didn't notice any difference between the bridge and the bridge. Aren't they all a dilapidated scene?
But just when I wanted to look back, I suddenly felt a pier near us move.
I hurriedly cast my gaze over there, the light over there was a bit dim, I carefully identified it, and finally saw that there was a person there.
The pier I saw moved, not because of the pier, but because of the man.
I was startled, and hurriedly calmed down, suppressed the excitement in my heart, tried to keep my sight steady, and carefully observed the range of the bridge pier.
At this time, the man moved again, and this time I saw clearly that the man was arching his back and pushing the bridge pier with both hands.
It could be seen that the man exerted all his strength and his body was tensed.Judging by his posture, he should be preventing the pier from collapsing and using manpower to maintain the pier's balance.
In my opinion, this is completely a mans arm.How could it be possible to rely on human strength to prevent the bridge from collapsing?
I wondered, who is this person?Why are you doing such a stupid thing?
Before I could figure it out, the other two bridge piers moved a little bit later.I cast my gaze over and found that under the two piers, there were also persons pushing the piers.
Three people, three piers...
I remembered what the little mason said before he brought us here. He asked if we were looking for Pang Haihai and the three of them. Could it be... Could it be that they are...
With this thought, a layer of cold sweat broke out on my body, and after a closer look, judging from their body postures, they really looked like Pang Dahai and the others.
The one closest to me is Ma Di, and the ones farther away are Pang Dahai and Huang Wenbai.
"Ah?" I couldn't help but yelled, and subconsciously closed my eyes.
And as soon as I yelled, the little mason stretched out his hand to cover my mouth.I opened my eyes again and found that the little mason was winking at me and shaking his head.He was motioning me to keep quiet, I nodded, and he gently let go of his hand.
Liang Yue and Qu Kangcheng should have also seen Fatty and the others, with incredible expressions on their faces.
That said, I wasn't the only one seeing it.
I wanted to take another look and figure out what Fatty and the others were doing.
But when I looked towards the bridge pier again with my left eye, I found that it was covered by a layer of fog.The stone bridge was no longer dilapidated, and looked no different from a normal stone bridge.
I rubbed my eyes, only to realize that the cow's tears I ordered seemed to have lost their effect.I just remembered that my third uncle once told me that this kind of medicine can only last for 15 minutes at a time.Sometimes it may be less than 15 minutes. After 15 minutes, the burnt cells of the barrier membrane will again generate a substance to temporarily replace the barrier membrane.So the eyes are no longer yin and yang eyes, and they will no longer see ghosts and the like.
Now that we couldn't see it, the three of us looked at the little mason at the same time.I want to see how he explains it. Since he brought us here, he obviously knows the inside story.
Seeing us staring at him, the little mason smiled wryly, but just waved his hand, signaling us to go back with him.
We followed him, from the side of the stone bridge, along the edge, and returned to the room where the little mason was.
When the little mason saw that we had all entered the house, he grinned at the corner of his mouth, but he couldn't tell whether he was laughing or crying.
"Shi Jin, what's going on?" I asked impatiently.
Due to my impatience, my voice was a little louder, which made Shi Jin a little nervous. He hurriedly waved his hand at me, and said in a low voice, "Brother. Although this place is relatively safe, let's try not to speak too loudly."
Looking at Shi Jin's expression, he was indeed very nervous, and he didn't know what he was afraid of.
But at this time, I am more concerned about what is going on with Fatty and the others.
I nodded, lowered my voice, and said, "Tell us, what's going on with that bridge?"
Although Liang Yue and Qu Kangcheng didn't make a sound, they were both anxious and stared at the little mason together.
Shi Jin asked back: "You... all saw it?"
I pointed in the direction of the stone bridge, and said, "Of course I saw it. The bridge is about to collapse, and there are fat people supporting the pier? What's going on?"
The little mason sighed, and said: "You should have seen that there are two bridges here, one for life and one for death. People who walk across the bridge of life will be safe for the time being, and those who walk through the bridge of death will lose their souls." If it is sucked away, it will be enslaved to do other things, and if there is no special method, this soul will disappear within seven days, and this person will stay in the underground palace forever."
What the little mason said surprised the three of us.Because according to what the three of us know, the issue of the bridge of life and death is not involved.The concept of the bridge of life and death came out of his mouth, which made us a little puzzled.
I tentatively asked: "Shi Jin, what do you mean to say, the bridge the three of us are walking on is a living bridge, so we are fine for the time being. Fatty and the others have also been here, but they are walking on the bridge that is about to collapse. The dead bridge, that bridge is a dead bridge, so their souls are sucked away now?"
Chapter 1098
Shi Jin nodded: "That's right, brother, that's what happened. You saw them on the other side of the bridge pier, it was their remnant souls. Their souls were divided into several strands, and they went to do different things .”
After hearing Shi Jin's words, I suddenly remembered that I had seen Fatty and the three of them pulling that stone chariot.In other words, the one who pulls the cart is also one-third of their souls.
In this way, counting the cart puller and the bridge pusher, there should be a third of the remaining souls, who don't know what they are doing.
"Then... where are their physical bodies? Where are they?"
Shi Jin pointed to the main hall: "It's right up there."
I questioned: "Up there? Then why are you preventing us from going to that hall? No, I have to save them."
As I said that, I turned around and wanted to go out, but Shi Jin grabbed me.
"Brother, why are you so impulsive. Of course there is a reason for me to stop you. You don't want to ask who is the person who can suck their souls away and drive them?"
After hearing Shi Jin's words, I had to stop again.What Shi Jin said was right, I was a little impulsive just now, because it involved the life and death of Pang Dahai and Ma Su, my mind suddenly became a little messed up.
"I'm sorry, I was impulsive." I tried to clear my mind, and asked Shi Jin again: "Then tell us about the situation, you should know how we can save them?"
Shi Jin nodded and asked, "Brother, do you think that the most common elements seen in this underground palace are Taoist priests?"
The three of us glanced at each other and nodded, what Shi Jin said was what I wanted to ask.That's right, this underground palace looks more like a Taoist temple, and the Taoist priests that can be seen everywhere make us puzzled.
Shi Jin continued: "Then let me tell you, because sitting on top of this hall is a Taoist priest."
"Then there is a Taoist priest in the hall? Is he still alive?" Qu Kangcheng blurted out.
But after asking, he felt that the question was outrageous, and he waved his hand: "I'm sorry, I shouldn't have asked, how could there be living people in the 200-year-old underground palace?"
"No...he is indeed still alive." Unexpectedly, Shi Jin replied like this.
"Huh?" We were surprised at the same time.
Seeing our expressions, Shi Jin further explained: "I'm sorry, I didn't express well. To be precise, his soul is still alive. If he is handled properly, he will be resurrected in the near future. This is a Taoist priest. He died 200 years ago, but he was a scheming ascetic. Maybe he practiced the evil way, so we all call him an evil way. He arranged everything 200 years ago, just wanting to use everything in this underground palace, To achieve his goal of being resurrected after a few years. Who knows that the time has not been ripe, and the number of years has been extended backwards, and it has been 200 years. Recently, the time is ripe, so he started to act. "
I looked at Shi Jin and asked, "You little mason, how do you know these things that happened 200 years ago?"
Shi Jin smiled: "Brother, I naturally have a way I know. And the signs outside, such as the lion on the Kunzhou Bridge cracking, and the stone statue of General Shimen bleeding, etc., are all signs that the time is ripe. I knew it from above. Well, there will definitely be a change in the underground recently. Let me tell you this, if this evil person succeeds, the matter will be irreparable. Because there is a secret switch in this underground palace, after it is turned on, the entire underground palace will collapse, causing nearby The mountains collapsed, the stagnant water flowed backwards, and the underground rivers rushed out, and they would flow out for thousands of miles. Not only could Sanyangpu Village not be preserved, but it would also affect a wider area.”
Maybe because we were surprised by our expressions, the little mason said emphatically: "You must not believe what I said, but let me tell you, this underground palace is not just what you see. When it was built, it was extended. To the interior of the three mountains. As long as the underground palace collapses, a series of natural disasters will be triggered, and landslides and the like are minor."
After listening to the little mason, Qu Kangcheng took out the blueprint on his body, and said in a trembling voice: "Li Yang, what the little mason said may be true. I have not recovered 40.00% of the blueprint. And the 40.00% Among them, 30.00% of the text is used to describe the mechanism setting of this underground palace. As he said, the possibility of triggering a switch and causing the entire underground palace to collapse exists."
Shi Jin followed Qu Kangcheng's words and said: "When it comes to this blueprint, I know that there are 24 words of mantra in it. It is: 200 years, the golden carp appears. Shimen collapses, Feng Shui changes. Three poems are gone, three suns are seen. The mantra is revealed, the world Chaos. Didn’t you all fail to understand the meaning of Shimen Beng and Feng Shui Change? Then let me tell you now that the Shimen Beng refers to nothing but the hall.”
As he spoke, Shi Jin pointed to the great hall in front of him.
"What? Shimen is not General Shimen, nor is it the Shimen we saw when we passed by, but this hall? This... what kind of logic is this?"
I was surprised again when I heard it, because we have already had two inferences about the understanding of the words "Shimen comes out, Fengshui changes".One is the stone statue of General Shimen standing above the crypt, and the other is the stone gate in the underground palace.
No matter what kind of statement it is, it is related to the geomantic omen of the whole area.
Unexpectedly, now the little mason made such a statement.
The little mason nodded and said, "Do you know the name of this underground palace?"
I shook my head: "How would I know?"
The little mason smiled, and then said: "This underground palace is called the Nine Dragons Underground Palace, but the main hall of this underground palace also has a name called Shimen Palace. The evil Taoist I mentioned has the Taoist name of Shimen Taoist. The so-called Shimen collapses, Fengshui changes, It means that once the Shimen Hall collapses, it will cause a chain reaction in the entire Jiulong underground palace, which will cause changes in the nearby mountains and rivers. The Fengshui change here does not only refer to Fengshui, but refers to the entire area will fall into a catastrophe , it will be an unprecedented catastrophe. At that time, at least thousands, or even tens of thousands of people may be killed."
"What? You mean that Feng Shui change doesn't just refer to bad Feng Shui, but refers to the great Feng Shui, which is related to the creatures living in this area? Thousands of people will die because of it?"
I am very puzzled, for this statement, there is a feeling of extreme fear.If that's the case, it's not just a catastrophe, it will be a disaster that shocks the world.
Chapter 1099
The little mason nodded: "Brother, don't think that what I said is alarmist. I wonder if you know that there is a dark river down here?"
"Dark river? I know." I suddenly remembered that there were also the words "Dark River and Floating Dark River" on that blueprint.And when we passed by that bridge, whether it was an illusion or not, we did see a black water river rushing turbulently, and there were many bones floating in it. Could it be this so-called dark river?
The little mason went on to say: "There is another theory that this underground palace is built to restrain the hidden river. Because the source or flow of the hidden river is connected with the Wangchuan River in the underworld. When the time comes, the Shimen Palace will If it collapses, the dark river will rush out of the ground, and the earth will suffer from unprecedented floods. And this flood is just one of many disasters, others such as thousands of poisonous insects rushing out of the ground, etc..."
I'm not surprised that poisonous insects will be born here.We have just calmed down the threat brought by the scarlet fire silkworms, who knows if there will be other poisonous insects here.
Upon hearing this, Liang Yue asked the little mason: "If what you said is true, what can we do to prevent this catastrophe?"
The little mason took a look at Liang Yue and said, "It's very simple, prevent that evil person from being resurrected. I already knew about these things when I went down to the crypt for the first time with my elder brother. But it's too dangerous here, and my elder brother is a good man." , I couldn't bear to let him follow me in and lose his life, so I rushed in before him. Until I found out that the situation here is far more complicated than I imagined. I am alone and alone, and I can't solve it at all. , That's why I stayed here all the time. Later, I found out that Fatty and the others had an accident, and I was unable to save them. I knew you would definitely come again, and finally let me wait for you. Only by joining hands can we prevent the evil man from being resurrected. Only by preventing his resurrection can we prevent this catastrophe from happening. This is also a chain reaction, and every link will not work.” The little mason also explained why he left me and entered the underground palace at that time.I stared at him, wondering if I should trust him or not.
Seeing me looking at him, the little mason hurriedly said: "Aren't you going to save Fatty and the others? Now their physical bodies are in the hall, and only by preventing the resurrection of evil people can their physical bodies be brought out. So these two things There is no conflict."
Liang Yue kept her eyes on the little mason. After the little mason finished speaking, she asked, "Shi Jin, you are just a little mason. How do you know so many things?"
Obviously, Liang Yue's tone was full of suspicion.
Not only her, but I am actually surprised that I know so much about Shi Jin.It occurred to me that his background should not be simple, and there are too many things in him that I don't understand.But he was able to tell me so many secrets of the underground palace today, which is far beyond my imagination.
What Liang Yue asked was actually what I wanted to ask, but I didn't have the nerve to ask so directly.
The little mason sighed, rummaged through the bag next to him, and finally found a book and handed it to us: "Look at this."
