White Bone Monkey King

After exiting the coffin cave, the surrounding environment changed drastically again and returned to the original cave wall environment.

"It's strange to say that I didn't encounter the group of tomb robbers along the way. They saw neither alive nor dead bodies. Logically speaking, they couldn't have been swept so far by the current..."

"Otherwise, we would all be swept away by the current into the rapid underground river..."

Based on the rapidity of the underground river, Jin An secretly guessed that these people were probably in danger.

As the funeral aura grew stronger and stronger, Jin An knew that he was getting further away from the ground, and that he was continuing to penetrate deeper into the Black Mountain.

The underground world at this time was not only dark, but also extremely quiet. It was definitely a desperate situation of claustrophobia.

Suddenly, Jin An's ears moved, and he heard some sounds, but because of the interference of the flowing water from the underground river, the sound was not clear at first. As he got closer, he finally heard that it was the dull sound of stones colliding, like The sound of rocks hitting my head.

The sound was still some distance away from him, but because the underground space was claustrophobic and quiet, it could be heard far away in the open underground world.

Jin An's eyes turned cold and he walked towards the direction of the sound.

When he came to a river bank, he once again saw those kneeling headless corpses in weird postures. They were in the same posture, with their hands tied behind their backs, and their bodies covered in sacks. The sacks were stained black by rotting corpse liquid, and their bodies were in a kneeling posture. He lay facing the other side of the river.

It can be vaguely seen that there seem to be two huge stone statues standing on the cliff on the other side of the river. Because the underground world is dark, it is impossible to see clearly what gods the stone statues are.

That dull banging sound came from the other side of the river.

As soon as Jin An came to the river bank, the sounds on the other side disappeared and fell into silence. Jin An squinted his eyes and looked for the other side carefully without moving his body.

He knew how conspicuous the torch in his hand was in the dark world. The unknown thing on the other side of the river had noticed his arrival and was observing him as still as he was.

At this time, Jin An discovered that the flow of the underground river became gentler when it flowed here. Upon closer inspection, it was because the river surface in this section was artificially raised, making the flow less turbulent.

However, he never found the heads of these kneeling headless corpses.

Suddenly, there was movement on the other side. He heard footsteps leaving, and there was a vague back figure leaving in the darkness.

Jin An didn't even think about it, and directly used Taoist gifting skills to gift himself to the other party.

But the opponent was too agile and left very quickly. As soon as he appeared where the opponent was standing, he saw a figure entering the stone door between the two stone statues on the cliff. He vaguely saw that the person seemed to be wearing a hat. ?

Um? hat?

"people?"

"Thousands of years have passed, and there are still gravekeepers here?"

Jin An did not hesitate to chase into the tall stone door and found that behind the door was a huge Hades Palace.

The Palace of the Underworld is too big and dark. If a person enters it, he will be like an embroidery needle thrown into the sea. Without a splash of water, he will lose the other person.

He stood at the door with a torch in hand and waited quietly for a while. Seeing that there was still no result, he had to temporarily exit the stone door to see what the man was smashing just now.

He was surprised to find that there was also a bull head sacrifice on the river bank here, and there was also a stone altar.

The strong smell of blood still lingered on the stone platform of the altar. Several fish were smashed by stones, and the stinking blood covered the carved characters on the altar.

"It seems that we have figured out what is being sacrificed on these altars. It is a human being, not something special."

Jin An observed the altar and muttered to himself.

It's just that he still hasn't figured out what the functions of these two altars are, and what do these sacrificial texts mean?

"It seems that all the answers can only be found by entering the Hades Palace behind the stone gate."

Jin An jumped off the altar and came to the stone door and looked up at the two stone statues in front of him. Each stone statue was carved about ten feet high and looked fierce. It was a tomb beast with a human face and a beast body.

There are roughly two types of tomb-suppressing beasts. One is the beast-like tomb-suppressing beast with an animal face, and the other is the human-like tomb-suppressing beast with a human face and an animal body.

What grave robbers are most afraid of encountering is the latter, a human-like tomb-suppressing beast.

Elephants are only interested in dead people. Placing a few of them in tombs can ward off evil spirits, deter strange things, and prevent unclean things from entering the sinister cemetery to disturb the sleeping ancestors.

It's different with the Tomb Suppressing Beast. This thing is interested in both living and dead people, and those who are targeted by it will not end well.

"Hey, these two people's tomb beast is incomplete. There are traces of man-made chiseling on the eyes. They only dug out the eyes and did not knock down the stone statue. Is it because they have eyes but not beads? So they only chiseled out the eyes?"

This discovery surprised Jin An.

The destroyed tomb beast, the tall stone door that was pushed open, and the coffin hole where several ancient tomb coffins were discarded, it seems that the man, the tomb beast, and the Hades Palace behind the stone gate are not the Great Master of the Warring States Period. All owned by the general.

It was excavated by the Warring States General and became his own, becoming part of his tomb.

It was strange to say that Jin An searched around the river bank and never found where the heads of the headless kneeling corpses were hidden.

Shaking his head, he no longer struggled with these small details, turned around and walked into the Hades Palace behind the tall stone door.

There were two tombs guarded by humans and beasts at the entrance. He became more and more interested in these tombs in the Daheishan Mountains. It was like peeling off cocoons and peeling off the fog layer by layer, making people look forward to what the final result would be.

The Hades Hall is very large and empty. The reason why it is said to be empty is because all the things inside have been removed, leaving only a few supporting stone pillars.

"Sure enough, this Underworld Palace has another owner, and it was also robbed by the Warring States General."

At this time, he encountered seven stone coffins. The stone coffins were heavy, each weighing several thousand kilograms. The coffins were opened, and the corpses and burial objects inside had long since disappeared. Perhaps it was precisely because these stone coffins were heavy and difficult to carry that they were abandoned where they were.

Holding torches and making a circle, Jin An saw that each of the seven stone coffins was pulled by several thick iron chains, and the other ends of those thick iron chains were set high above the head of the Hades Hall.

"Seven-star hanging coffin?"

"It seems that the status of the master of the Underworld Palace was not lower than that of the Warring States General."

But so what? Death is like a lamp going out. After death, there is nothing. No one will respect you anymore. On the contrary, the more burial objects you have, the more greedy people will be attracted to look at you. Jin An shook his head and walked through the seven-star hanging coffin of the empty coffin. .
