Something happened. This is not going to be bloody.

Chapter 93: Wu Chang Office - Brilliant Mural

Early the next morning, everyone gathered here.

After many parties introduced themselves to each other, Wang Jian led everyone to the entrance of the cave.

There were nine people in total. Three experts came from Kyoto. The leader called himself Zhang Feng. The two people behind him did not introduce their names and remained silent. There were also three people from the provincial capital. The leader was Tao Li, a beauty, followed by two men. The remaining three were Wang Jian, Zhou Leng and Fang Zengqing.

The nine of them arrived at the entrance of a cave, and Wang Jian took the lead in introducing:

"Last time our team entered this cave to investigate. There was nothing unusual in the cave, except for a stone door at the deepest part. When we opened the door, evil spirits from ghosts flowed out and three people were injured by them."

Zhang Feng said solemnly: "Then please lead the way, we will explore again today. Everyone should be ready for battle."

The group moved forward slowly. During this time, Tao Li looked at Fang Zengqing curiously a few times, while the others were indifferent and moved forward in silence.

After walking for about thirty minutes, they arrived in front of the stone gate.

Zhou Leng saw that the stone door was very ordinary, with no carved patterns or complicated designs.

Wang Jian said: "It is easy to open this stone door, and the ghosts that come out will not be difficult to deal with, but there are too many ghosts, so everyone should be careful." After he said that, he took out his magic weapon, then stepped forward and pulled open the stone door with force.

Countless black air mixed with gray ghosts rushed out.

Zhou Leng originally wanted to take out the bronze sword to resist, but the dark red bead hanging around his neck became excited and floated up on its own to absorb the black air.

Zhou Leng tore the red string apart and threw the beads into the cave. She took out the bronze dagger and began to kill the ghosts.

Others were also showing off their special abilities and casting spells.

Only Fang Zengqing was covered by a white glow. She looked at everything in amazement, not afraid but excited. The girl danced and looked at everyone.

After about half an hour, the originally dark red bead had completely turned black. It sensed that there was no ghost energy to absorb, so it floated to Zhou Leng's side, and she grabbed it and put it in her pocket.

The crowd fought for about twenty minutes, and the ghosts were all dispersed. In fact, if the beads had not absorbed all the evil spirit of the ghost, the ghosts would have been endless.

Tao Li used the iron rod in her hand as a crutch. Her pretty face was full of surprise, but her eyes were full of meaning. She asked:

"Fang Xin, what is that thing of yours? Is it a magic weapon passed down from your ancestors? You are one of the strongest ferrymen I have ever met. I thought all ferrymen were just good at using flashlights to show off."

Zhou sneered and replied: "This is just an ordinary magic weapon. This is just a coincidence. I will have to rely on you for the rest of the journey."

The others were polite in words, but in their hearts they respected Zhou Leng as the ferryman.

Everyone sat down to rest and adjust for an hour before setting off again.

This time, Tao Li was the first to step into the stone gate, followed by everyone else.

Behind the stone gate was a square cave. When they entered, there was no gorgeous fire suddenly lighting up, nor was there any terrifying sound of the stone gate suddenly closing. Everything was very peaceful.

Tao Li, who was walking in front, took out a lighting tool from her backpack to increase the brightness.

Zhou Leng cast a spell and the surroundings lit up.

Tao Li rolled her eyes secretly, thinking to herself that you are the only one who knows how to pretend to be smart. When I was performing magic, you were still in the underworld waiting to be reincarnated.

There was nothing in the cave, but the murals on the wall recording events attracted the attention of several people.

Zhang Feng started to look carefully at the first mural on the right, and everyone followed him. He was an expert in history, so he was the most suitable person to summarize. Moreover, he was the leader from the capital, so everyone understood the ways of the world.

After watching for a few minutes, Zhang Feng said in a surprised tone:

"This is actually the recording method of ancient civilizations. It seems that we need to report this to the relevant superior departments, and find someone to protect it after we leave. This mural tells the story of humans being kept captive by demons in ancient times, and there is a demon king who looms over the mortal world, and a scene of confrontation between humans and demons."

Everyone walked to the second mural.

Zhang Feng added: "At this time, an immortal fought a great battle against a demon king, and both died. The common people suffered and were displaced, and everyone's faces were filled with fear."

Tao Li couldn't help but say, "Look, the immortals and demon kings on this mural are all dotted lines. Maybe they are all clones."

Zhang Feng thought for a moment and replied, "What Tao Li said is also a possibility. Let's see more."

The crowd walked to the third mural, which showed a group of immortals fighting the demon king again. One person was in the center of the immortals, with a big bow in front of him, and everyone was surrounding him.

Zhang Feng said: "Looking at this mural, it can be seen that what Tao Li said just now is true, but the demon king is a clone. But is the immortal also a clone?"

Tao Li couldn't help but say, "I guess the immortal's body was destroyed and he turned into a ghost cultivator or a weapon spirit. You see, the big bow is also drawn with dotted lines. Maybe the immortal trained himself to become a weapon spirit."

Zhang Feng said: "This statement seems a bit strange, but it is not ruled out. This kind of murals are often recorded in an exaggerated way, so we might as well make a bold guess."

Zhou Leng listened carefully, but also stared at Tao Li closely. She felt that this person seemed to be very familiar with the murals.

The mural does not end here. Next, everyone sees the scene of the demon king being killed. While humans gain freedom, they also develop ambitions.

The last mural depicts several immortals and some people who are obviously monsters in a Taoist temple, and outside the temple there are many people attacking.

The expected war did not happen. A sacred tree in the Taoist temple turned the world upside down. In the end, everything seemed to return to peace, but the besieged Taoist temple was nowhere to be found.

After looking at the mural, everyone was thinking, what exactly does this mural want to express?

Fang Zengqing held Zhou Leng's hand, her little head thinking hard, looking at the murals seriously. Then she rubbed her belly again. It must be said that not only did she not find any clues, but it seemed to increase her hunger. She took off her small backpack and took out a piece of chocolate to eat.

This seemed to be a start, and everyone took out food to replenish their energy.

The tense atmosphere was also relieved, and Zhang Feng suddenly asked:

"Tao Li, what do you think is the meaning of this mural? Many of your insights into this mural today are very novel. I would like to hear your thoughts."

Tao Li swallowed the food in her mouth and said casually:

"All things are defined by later generations. Maybe it was just a whim for the people at that time, or they just wanted to record something. But do you think this is true or false? Did the demon king really exist? If there really were so many demons who escaped, what would they do if they survived until now? Now humans are moving towards technology. If there really were demons, it would be quite frightening to think about it."

Everyone started talking about Tao Li, only Zhou Leng frowned slightly. She saw teasing and curiosity in Tao Li, but not fear or panic. She thought there must be something strange about Tao Li, and it might be related to this place. If she was more bold, she might be related to the monster tribe, or even Tao Li herself was a monster!

Tao Li felt Zhou Leng's gaze and responded with a meaningful smile.
