Merchant of the Underworld

"The place where the formation eye should be opened should be at the bronze tree." I continued: "However, I have never believed in the black and white double shadow. I am very afraid that these two guys will do some tricks again, and they will not be killed no matter what. I know, so I tried to find the location where the formation eye is hidden directly! Now it seems that there is no other way but to give it a try."

Xiao Bailong turned his head, looked at the coffin standing in front of him and said, "What should we do here?"

Chuyi looked at Miss Caiyun: "Caiyun, what do you think we should do? After all, this is your ancestor."

Miss Caiyun shook her head gently: "Although I am a descendant of the Amaterasu royal family, since my ancestors were persecuted and fled to the Central Plains, I have nothing to do with the Amaterasu clan, or even Japan as a whole. It can also be said that the lineage of the Japanese Emperor It has been cut off a long time ago, I am also Chinese, not Japanese."

On the first day of the new year, he pondered for a while and said nothing. Xiao Bailong advised: "No matter what, you should go up and pay homage! After all, these are your ancestors, and Shenwu did not invade the Central Plains back then, and it was not completely bad. "

Miss Caiyun still didn't move, and Han Laoliu also advised: "Go ahead, think of it as a wish granted. From now on, although you have his blood on your body, you will not owe each other anything." After that, he Be the first to stand up.

Then Miss Caiyun followed Han Laoliu and bowed several times to Emperor Jimmu in the transparent coffin.

But Miss Caiyun walked back, but Han Laoliu stood still in front of the coffin: "Hey, look, there is a hole here. Why does it look so familiar?"

As soon as Xiao Bailong and I heard this, we turned around quickly.

Sure enough, on the front of the coffin, there was a small hole dented between Emperor Jimmu's eyebrows.

The small hole is about the size of an egg and is divided into countless cutting surfaces.

"Isn't this what's hidden in the six-finger gold box?" Xiao Bailong thought about it first.

"Yes! It's that thing." Han Laoliu greeted Miss Caiyun and said, "Put it in and have a look. Maybe it will be useful. He tried so hard to hide it. It must not be used as a building block puzzle, right?"

Miss Caiyun took out the stone and handed it to Han Laoliu, but Han Laoliu didn't take it.

But Xiao Bailong was anxious: "What are you two pushing and shoving for? Do you think it's a token of love? Put it in quickly and take a look. We have to get out of here quickly."

Miss Caiyun glared at him, jumped up reluctantly, and stuffed the stone into the hole.

As soon as the stone was put in, it suddenly shone, and Emperor Jimmu's eyes that had been closed suddenly opened.

A few of us were startled, thinking that this guy was going to come back from the dead. Just as he was about to dodge around, he found that nothing happened.

Not to mention the coffin exploding, the corpse jumping out, or the sound of some machine spring, the forbidden array roared, not even a trace of dust fell.

We looked around blankly, and when we saw nothing unusual, we were completely relieved.

"It seems like this thing may have failed, right?" Xiao Bailong scratched the back of his head with lingering fear.

As soon as we saw that there was really no danger, we walked out of the crystal tube one after another and walked straight to the ancient bronze tree. No one picked up even half of the jewelry scattered on the ground.

On the highest branch of the ancient bronze tree, nine large crows stood side by side.

Each one has three legs, as black as ink, as if they are not dead, staring at us from top to bottom with a pair of big black eyes.

"Jilin, do you think this looks like the Nine Ghost Soul Sealing Curse?" Chuyi looked at it for a while and suddenly asked me.

"No!" I shook my head and answered firmly: "The Nine Ghost Soul Sealing Curse uses nine kinds of spells to seal the five senses and seven orifices, plus the Yin and Yang Dao, commonly known as sealing the nine holes. But the materials used by these crows are... It’s a black Yin stone. If you use it to seal the nine holes, it will only become more and more Yin-like, eventually leading to the resurrection of the Yin corpse.”

"This ancient tomb has been built for thousands of years and has never had Yang Qi. If it were to be resurrected, I'm afraid it would have turned into a great demon! Regardless of whether they were resurrected or not, these nine crows would never look like this. "

When I was talking to Junior High School, Xiao Bailong was scratching his head in boredom, and from time to time he would look at us with contempt, maybe cursing the two of us in his heart for "not speaking human words."

However, Han Laoliu squinted his eyes and kept staring upward. He suddenly said: "No, these are not nine crows! One of them has long been broken." As he said that, he raised his leg and kicked the tree branch. .

The other crows didn't even sway, but the one closest to the side broke into several pieces with a crash and fell from the tree.

"Huh? Eight." Chu Yi felt a little strange.

"I said you guys are interesting." Xiao Bailong finally couldn't help it anymore and said in a weird voice: "Why are there no seals and no seals? Those are useless? Now don't you suspect that this thing is a mechanism to open the formation eye? Just smash them all as I say, and kill the monster when it comes out. If the monster doesn't come out, we can continue to study it."

"What did you say?" Chu Yi seemed to suddenly remember something under his random yelling.

"Smash it!" Xiao Bailong replied.

"No, next sentence."

"Kill the monsters when they come out!" Xiao Bailong was very angry.

"Yes, I know!" Chuyi suddenly stood up and said with a stern expression: "I may know what the formation in this ancient tomb is."

"What?" Xiao Bailong and I were both surprised.

Han Laoliu suddenly interjected: "Are you talking about Yamata no Orochi?"

"Yes!" Chu Yi nodded: "This is not the seal of the Nine Ghosts, but the Nine Heaven-Destroying Seal!"

"The Yamata-no-Orochi is a monster in Japanese legend. This kind of snake monster with many heads is spread all over the world, such as Xiangliu in ancient Chinese mythology and Lena in ancient Greek legends. Only in Japanese legends That big snake has eight heads."

"You mean, this head was chopped off?" Xiao Bailong interjected: "And it's probably Emperor Jimmu?"

"Originally, this possibility was not very likely, but since this formation eye is a living creature, and the plesiosaur-like monster that Jiulin saw with his own eyes, it is very likely that it is one of its heads!"

"So, we are going to hunt the Yamata no Orochi later? It's fun just thinking about it." Xiao Bailong rubbed his hands impatiently and said: "Then what are you waiting for? Hurry up and kill those few Crush it with rocks!" He said, eager to rush up.

"Wait a minute." Chu Yi quickly grabbed him and said, "If we had just entered the ancient tomb, this might not be difficult, but now our cultivation has been greatly reduced, our injuries have not healed, and we want to hunt down Baqi. The big snake is not that simple! You have to plan carefully."

"What's so difficult about that?" Xiao Bailong glanced at Chu Yi very disapprovingly.

"Isn't it difficult? Then tell me how to play." Chu Yi sighed helplessly.
