Chapter 25 Mr. Chu, Lao Luo, I really convinced you this time!
When Chu Yun led Chen Yulou and other people who were moving mountains and unloading mountains onto this flat slope, the first thing that caught his eye was a huge palace.
The palace is located on a flat slope, with towering eaves, vast buildings, and bright lamps under the carved beams and painted buildings. Several halls are separated in sequence but closely connected, and several stone pillars inlaid with gold and dragons are like holding up the sky.
In front of the hall are two rows of eight-treasure glazed lamps with bright lights, nine in each row, symbolizing the highest number in the world, and cannot be used by anyone but the royal family.
The mountain walls on both sides are made of bluestone, while the bricks on the ground are pure white, symbolizing the Taoist blue sky and white clouds. Each brick and tile is carved with Tai Chi and Bagua diagrams.
Between the mountains and rocks, wisps of clouds and mist linger, adding a bit of fairyland to the place...
Except for Chu Yun, who was familiar with the plot, no one thought that there were all these palaces, buildings, railings and jade structures hidden in this huge cave.
For a time, with the help of those ever-brightening eight-treasure glazed lamps, everyone engraved these fairyland-like scenes in their minds and imprinted them in their hearts, with obsession in their eyes.
At this moment, even Chu Yun, who had already expected this, couldn't help but have a bit of surprise in his eyes.
While admiring the uncanny workmanship of ancient craftsmen, I also gained a new understanding of the luxury of ancient emperors.
This is just a place for alchemy. If it were a royal villa, the tombs of emperors would be so majestic and gorgeous.
After being amazed, Chu Yun glanced around and saw that everyone was obsessed with this paradise-like place on earth. He coughed lightly and brought Chen Yulou and others back to reality from the amazement brought by this place.
"The Lingxiao Palace is nothing more than this!"
Chen Yulou, who was awakened, sighed, opened the folding fan, looked at the people around him who were gradually waking up, and finally looked at Mr. Chu, seeing that he was still unmoved by this fairyland-like scene, and thought to himself.
This man who touches gold is really well-informed, and such magnificent palaces and pavilions cannot shock him in the slightest.
"Mr. Chu, this should be the underworld palace in this tomb. It's a pity that this place, which was originally a fairyland on earth, has now become lifeless because of the Yuan people."
Hearing this, Chu Yun nodded. Chen Yulou was right. This Pingshan Mountain was originally hollowed out by the royal family before the Yuan Dynasty to build towers and pavilions. All the buildings in the mountain were built according to the specifications of Taoist palaces.
After the Yuanren general occupied this place, he turned the original place where he practiced Taoism and alchemy into his palace after his death. As a result, this mountain palace that was supposed to be a fairyland on earth now has a cold and ghostly atmosphere.
Although the palace is still majestic and magnificent, and the lights are brilliant, when you think about it, it has been turned into a tomb, and it has not been popular for a long time. When you look at it again, the fairy atmosphere turns into a ghostly atmosphere, and the majestic palace looks like a ghost palace.
There is a hint of coldness.
"Lao Luo, my eyes have been opened this time, and I have a clue. We have really found the treasure this time!"
Luo Laowai doesn't care whether the air here is fairy or ghost. Now he only has wealth in his eyes. Although he has not entered the palace, the eight treasures and glazed lamps outside are enough to dazzle him.
Looking at the eight-treasure glazed lamps that were still bright, Luo Laowai calculated the value and said impatiently: "Mr. Chu, please let the brothers collect these treasure lamps first. Yi Laoluo, let me see
, No matter how dangerous there are in this tomb, there is no danger as long as we don’t enter the palace first, these lanterns are priceless treasures!"
Hearing this, Chen Yulou was about to nod, but then he remembered that the person in charge of entering the tomb this time was Mr. Chu from the gold-touching sect, so he turned his attention to Chu Yun, "Mr. Chu, I think Luo Shuai is right.
It’s so empty, we can see any danger at any time.”
You are wrong about this. The danger is already here, but you haven’t noticed it yet...
Listening to the faint sounds around him, Chu Yun, who had been paying attention to his surroundings, immediately understood that the first difficulty in the tomb was coming.
Although the centipedes can't be seen yet, Chu Yun can already imagine that the surrounding shadows are already filled with dense centipedes, overwhelming the sky!
While thinking, Chu Yun glanced at the people around him, "Mr. Chen, take the lead, Luo Shuai, let everyone release the rooster!"
Hearing this, Chen Yulou, Luo Laowai and others were all stunned. The originally noisy crowd also subconsciously became quiet, and everyone's eyes began to look around.
At this moment, the faint sound became more and more clearly audible, and in the blink of an eye, many centipedes appeared on the ground around them.
"Centipede!"
"So many centipedes!"
As several screams rang out, the crowd suddenly fell into a commotion. Many people looked a little pale and looked frightened.
Although Mr. Chu had long warned that there were many poisonous centipedes in the tomb, no one could have imagined that there would be so many centipedes.
In just a few breaths, the mountain walls, in front of the palace, and behind everyone, even the eight-treasure glass lamp was covered with densely packed tiny centipedes.
"Put the cock in!"
Looking at the densely packed centipede figures around him, which were sweeping in like quicksand, seeing Chen Yulou and Luo Laowai in a daze, Chu Yun didn't bother to remind them again, and directly used all his inner strength.
Roared angrily.
After a roar, followed by an undetectable air wave that swept away in all directions, everyone in the Xiling faction and Luo Laowai's soldiers finally woke up and quickly scattered the roosters in their hands.
In an instant, the entire tomb passage was filled with chickens flying and hopping, causing the huge group of centipedes that had originally been attacking everyone to stagnate.
Maybe they never thought that they would encounter so many roosters in their territory. Even if they have never seen such creatures, their instincts engraved in their blood prevent them from making any further moves.
But those roosters don't care about that. As one of the three hegemons in the countryside, they are used to being arrogant. Now they will not be timid in the face of these 'weak' centipedes.
As excited rooster crows sounded, the roosters all over the ground were not afraid at all after seeing the astonishing number of centipede groups. They immediately flapped their wings and rushed towards the centipede groups in all directions.
Everything in the world has restraint, and roosters are the bane of many poisonous insects. Even if these centipedes are shockingly poisonous, they can't help but rush back like an ebbing tide after seeing so many roosters.
However, those roosters had been hungry for a long time. How could they give up when they saw so much food? They rushed into the group of centipedes in a few steps, pecking, grabbing, stepping on, and picking up. Many centipedes turned into these.
Food in the belly of the rooster.
For a time, these centipedes retreated a little faster. When everyone came to their senses, apart from the roosters that were all over the ground, there were only an astonishing number of centipede corpses left in the tomb passage.
As the many centipedes moved away, everyone's pale faces became a little better.
The scene just now was really scary. The sky was filled with dense centipedes. If they were to swarm over...
"Thank you, Mr. Chu, for saving your life!" Seeing the centipede swarm retreat, Chen Yulou took a breath and saluted Chu Yun immediately.
Seeing this, everyone in the rest of Xiling bowed to Chu Yun in unison.
"Thank you Mr. Chu for saving your life!"
Amidst the deafening shouts of thanks, Luo Laowai also came back to his senses, and saw that this famous warlord in western Hunan had already been covered with fine sweat on his forehead and his back was wet.
"Mr. Chu, Lao Luo, I really won over you this time!" After swallowing, Luo Laowai wiped the cold sweat from his forehead, said seriously and solemnly, and moved closer to Chu Yun again.
