White Bone Monkey King

After a day of traveling, everyone was exhausted. The bearded man and his men ate some hot food and went to bed early.

A bonfire on the ground was crackling, dispelling the darkness of the snowy mountains and warming people's cold hands and feet.

These woods were all dug out from the smashed ruins of the Tubo Emperor's temple. The temple was full of well-carved wooden platforms, wooden seats, and wooden frames... From this, it can be seen that the scale of the construction of Tubo Emperor was very large.

Watching these people skillfully digging wood from the smashed ruins as firewood, it further confirmed Wutou Jinan's conjecture that the murderers who smashed the Tubo Emperor's temple were not the people in front of him, but they were also a group.

So it is reasonable that Tubo Emperor, who is in charge of the underworld, did not protect a few people in the snowy mountains.

After all, you have demolished the statue, and the gods did not vent their anger on you, a blasphemer, which is already very generous.

Moreover, even without the statue, it is impossible to show the dharma body of the saint in the world, and naturally it is impossible to inspect the sufferings of the world and exorcise evil.

This is all the cycle of cause and effect.

You reap what you sow, and this is true for all things.

Wutou Jinan ignored the rest of the few people. He walked back to the dark cave entrance and stood still, looking at the cave entrance, as if he was looking through the deep darkness, trying to find clues to the Gewu Xianding from the bottom of the cave.

When he saw the demolished ruins of the Tubo Emperor's temple and the cave in front of him, Wutou Jinan had another guess in his mind.

It stands to reason that this cave is buried deep under the foundation of the temple, and it is impossible for anyone to find the secret passage. The Gewu Xianding will be permanently sealed in the dark and closed underground of a foreign country, and no one will care about it from now on. This is a perfect plan to seal the demon.

However, the predecessors underestimated a little. This is a foreign country. No one in Kangding can find this place, but the people on this land also lack the knowledge of Tubo Emperor.

When the fanatical believers saw that other gods were worshipped here, they would vent their anger by smashing and destroying things to show their devout faith in the local gods.

The Demon Sealing Cave, which had never seen the light of day, was accidentally discovered because of the smashing and destroying, which led to a series of subsequent changes.

There is nothing perfect in this world.

After figuring this out, Wutou Jinan jumped into the dark cave. This jump was like stepping over the gates of hell with two feet, and the temperature in the cave dropped sharply.

The cold wind was bone-chilling.

The cold wind on the snowy mountains was dry and cold, and the cold in the cave was damp and cold. No matter how many clothes you wear, it still can't stop the coldness of your bones and the loss of body temperature.

It's just that in this kind of coldness, there are some unique breaths, like a lot of accumulated turbid corpse gas.

The bottom of the cave was not deep, about two feet deep. Because there was no head and no eyes, the eyes did not need to adapt to the darkness. Under the illumination of the green candlelight of the soul-guiding lamp in his hand, he could see the environment in the cave at a glance.

Corpses!

Many corpses were piled up under the cave!

Those corpses were piled up layer by layer, densely packed, and the number was too many to count.

It was estimated that there were at least five hundred corpses.

So many corpses were piled up under the foundation of the Tubo Emperor's temple, under the control of Tubo Emperor.

The snowy mountains were not conducive to the decay of corpses. These corpses became wind-dried mummies, with a layer of frost on the surface.

The claustrophobic environment did not affect Wutou Jinan's spiritual inspection at all. He soon noticed that these mummies had two common characteristics.

One was that they were all soldiers wearing light armor of the Kangding Navy.

The second was that they all had abdominal distension. Each of them had become a mummified corpse, but their stomachs did not collapse and shrink, but remained swollen.

This result surprised Wutou Jinan.

I didn't expect that this was the burial place of the Shenzhou fleet. No immortal tripod was found here.

No wonder a shrine of the Great Emperor Tubo was set up here, which was specially used to suppress corpses and ward off evil spirits.

When he first saw those big-bellied corpses, he had guessed the cause of death of these people. They were all cannibals who were possessed by evil spirits.

With such a large-scale burial pit and so many corpses of the possessed, it seems that a large-scale civil strife broke out in the Shenzhou fleet.

A large fleet composed of dozens of sea vessels, but only one Shenzhou returned in the end. It is not difficult to guess that even if this civil strife was successfully quelled, it would be a tragic victory with a great price.

Wutou Jinan noticed that there were some corpses lying on the ground in a mess, and these corpses had obvious signs of being stripped and searched.

It seems that someone wants to make money from the dead.

Wutou Jinan raised his neck slightly and looked at the bearded men above the cave.

No wonder these people dared to spend the night here. It turned out that they had stolen corpses and searched the dead here, and knew that the dead here would not resurrect and cause trouble.

"The corpses in this burial pit are so densely stacked that they are almost full. According to normal logic, there must be more than one burial pit and Tubo Emperor's shrine on this ice and snow land."

If the fleet really suffered heavy casualties, it would be impossible for a burial pit to bury so many people.

Just as he looked at the layout of the burial pit in detail, creak... creak...

In the burial pit full of white ice corpses, which was cold and gloomy, a subtle sound came from the burial pit. The sound was very light. At first, it sounded like the sound of mice secretly gnawing on wooden beams in the dead of night. When I listened again, I found that the sound came from my feet. After listening carefully, it was clearly the sound of gnawing on ice corpses. Something was stealing the corpses here!

Headless Jin An landed on the ground and silently walked to the source of the sound. The sound of gnawing came from the bottom of a pile of corpses. Without alerting the snake, he pulled out the long knife from his waist and quietly dug up the frozen soil under his feet.

These permafrost layers are as hard as steel and cannot be cut through with swords and axes, but this is not an ordinary steel knife in his hand. The magic weapon that can cut iron as much as mud can easily dig up the permafrost layer.

As the hole he dug in the permafrost grew larger, the sounds of corpse-gnawing became clearer. Finally, he dug a crack in the ground under the pile of corpses. In the crack, there was a human face hiding under the pile of corpses, biting greedily. ,chew.

The human face did not notice that someone was holding a green candlelight lantern and paying attention to him at this moment. The human face was still chewing on the corpse. The corpse was frozen hard in the cold weather, and the teeth made sharp grinding sounds. Every bite The next piece of dead human flesh has to be bitten off several layers of ice shards, and the dead human flesh and ice shards are chewed in the mouth.

The dead here were piled densely, and someone ate the corpses from the bottom, which broke the balance of the corpse pile. The pile of corpses in the burial pit collapsed, and a large number of ice corpses flowed down like a white mudslide.

If the headless Jin An hadn't been alert at all times, he would have avoided the fate of being buried alive in a pile of corpses.

Creak——

Creak——

The low sound of gnawing on corpses was still there, but it didn't stop him from continuing to gnaw greedily on corpses. It was like the sound of rats gnawing on beams and grinding their teeth in the middle of the night. The man patted the corpse through the wall, only to be quiet for a while and then grind his teeth in place.

But that's fine, it saves him having to find it all over again.

Just when he was about to dig out the face again, the bearded man and the others heard the noise and threw down a torch to check the situation.
