I was relieved to hear him say that.Seeing that I was able to skillfully use my divine sense to open the inheritance inside the ruby, the wooden man nodded with satisfaction, admiring that I was indeed talented.I laughed, in fact, this is what I learned when Gu Qihan taught me to use my divine sense to control the puppet.Thinking of his patient and meticulous expression when he taught me to control the puppet, my nose couldn't help but sour, and I clenched the bracelet, wishing to leave here immediately and return to him.At this moment, there was a sudden fluctuation above the barrier.From there, a corpse monster stretched like a rubber band entered, with countless severed arms and stumps put together, soaked all the way by the sea.Suddenly in this dry place, the corpse monster turned into a reptile.Twisting and twisting crawled towards me."
What the hell is this filth," said the wooden man, who was my master, who was now covering his nose with his wooden arm, and took a few steps back in disgust.It's really all about the treasures. ”I looked at the corpse monster that was embarrassed, with a painful expression, and was scorched by the mechanism, and laughed proudly in my heart, it seems that Xu Ze has suffered a lot if he wants to control the corpse monster to break into the mechanism.Unexpectedly, at this moment, the countless heads on the top of the corpse monster opened their mouths in unison, and said in a voice like a baby's cry."
Filth is something I have studied all my life, a hundred corpses, a hundred infant spirits, plus the blood of a woman in the lunar year, the moon and the sun, to form an immortal body, in order to reach this undersea underground palace" The old voice of the wooden man carried a hint of surprise in his voice, "Such a ridiculous method, where did you learn about it" Xu Ze manipulated the corpse monster and replied viciously, "The ancestor of the Xu family, Xu Fu, a scholar of the Qin Dynasty.Our Xu family has guarded this secret for thousands of years, is it wrong" The wooden man shook his head, "The old man has been guarding the gate of this underground palace for thousands of years, and he has indeed not heard of any immortal body, the testament left by the owner of the underground palace, as long as the person who has passed the many checkpoints outside the underground palace, he is qualified to enter the underground palace." ”Let's talk about it.I obviously felt that Xu Ze glanced at me through the eyes of the corpse monster, and I stuck out my tongue at him and grimaced at him.The old lady just went through the back door, but she didn't break into the mechanism, and you are not convinced to beat me.The hundred corpses on the corpse monster were all covered by a blood-red film from top to bottom before, and they came to the door of the underground palace at this moment.The blood-red film gradually faded, revealing the true face of the hundred-man corpse monster.Because the corpse had been soaked in water for a long time, it emitted a smell of decay at this time, and the wooden man was directly smoked and took a few steps back.Xu Ze snorted coldly."
Even if the ancients deceived me, I am now standing in front of the underground palace, and I am determined to obtain the immortal elixir."
The wooden man covered his nose and didn't say much.Step aside and get out of the way behind you, the beautifully patterned marble road stretches into the distance.The hundred-meter-long corpse was the first to twist its nimble body and crawl forward, and I bowed respectfully to the wooden man in goodbye."
Goodbye, Master, farewell to the apprentice."
The wooden man stood there and looked at me in silence for a long time, "Silly apprentice."
You really decided to go in, you must know that it is not for nothing that the tomb owner forbids souls to enter the dungeon, the dungeon is full of your ancestor's magic obstacles, and the trauma caused to the soul is likely to be permanent.If you go home now, the teacher can give you a ride. ”I shook my head and said with a smile, "Master, you don't want to see the apprentice look like a ghost now.Rest assured, the apprentices will come out with all their heads in their hands. ”The wooden man let out a long sigh and waved his hand at me helplessly, then turned his back, the ruby glow on his chest dimmed, apparently falling into a deep sleep again.The corpse was already swaying away, and I bowed respectfully to the wooden man, and then hurriedly stepped forward and caught up with the corpse monster's footsteps.This is a huge square, and you can't see the edge at a glance, and you don't know whether the square is round or square.Above the firmament, the sea water clasped the ground below like a dome.The floor here is paved with polished and smooth marble with a unique pattern.It looks very expensive.Although it was a soul, when I got here, I couldn't even float, so I could only walk on two legs honestly.The appearance of the corpse monster winding forward looks a little similar to Ah Yin, but the various naked corpses on the corpse monster are really disgusting.And Xu Ze directly controlled the corpse monster to crawl on the ground, the skin covered with corpse spots kept rubbing against the ground, and many places were worn out of the skin, and the bloody appearance was unbearable to look at.The two of us walked forward in silence until a hundred-meter-tall statue appeared in front of us.The statue looks like a hundred stories tall, and it stands as if it towers straight into the clouds, that is, in the waters that spread above.Because the statue is too tall.Therefore, it is impossible to see its full appearance at all, and can only vaguely see that the statue is an animal on all fours, covered with scales.And its neck sticks high above, and its head is like a sun.Backlit looking down at me and the ghouls."
What is this?"
I looked up at the statue, feeling like my neck was about to break, but I couldn't see what it was.The corpse snag past the statue, unoblivious to the towering sculpture.I was stroking the scales on the statue's leg with my hand.Seeing this, he couldn't help but remind, "You're just leaving, we haven't even found the entrance to the dungeon yet."
In case the clue to the entrance is hidden in this statue, won't you miss it in vain" Xu Ze controlled the corpse monster to slide forward for dozens of meters, and seemed to think for a while.Thinking what I said made sense, he stopped and turned his head to crawl towards the sculpture.I looked at his funny appearance and laughed, "You are really used to being a snake, and you have learned all the movements." ”"I'm not a snake, I'm immortal."
The hundred heads of the corpse monsters raised their heads and looked at me with expressionless expressions, and a hundred mouths made high-pitched noises in unison.I thought of Master's words, and couldn't help but shake my head, "You haven't thought about it, is the codex left by Xu Fu to you wrong?"
Since even the wooden people who have guarded the underground palace for thousands of years have never heard of the so-called legend about the immortal body, maybe Xu Fu came to the underground palace on the order of Qin Shi Huang that day, but he suffered from having no way to enter, so he casually spread such a rumor about an immortal body.It is not impossible to deal with the brutal First Emperor.Hearing my words, the corpse monster glanced at me before speaking slowly, "Back then, I searched the whole world for the Codex of my ancestors.It took a lot of effort to find it.The Codex records that he was ordered by the First Emperor to go to sea in search of the elixir of life, and finally he found the East China Sea and found that the elixir of immortality was hidden at the bottom of the sea.It's a pity that the sea is deep, the organs are heavy, and the ancestors have no way to enter, so they have been in the local area for many years before they have developed a method, saying that it is the strongest corpse composed of hundreds of corpses, and a hundred resentful spirits form the strongest soul, and then inject the blood of the daughter of pure yin, you can condense the immortal body and dive to the bottom of the sea, enter the underground palace to get the elixir of life. ”When the corpse monster said this, a confused look appeared on his face, "Later, Xu Fu returned to the Qin Dynasty, and Qin Shi Huang gave him five hundred boys and girls according to the method he said, and asked him to make immortal bodies from these children.Confusingly, however, the record in the Codex came to an abrupt end. ”"Abruptly stopped" I asked suspiciously, this Xu Fu is really true, but he didn't record it when it came to the most critical time, which is really appetizing.The corpse monster stared at me with a hundred pairs of eyes and said, "Yes, since the ancestor went to sea with five hundred boys and girls, he has never returned, and naturally there is no follow-up to the Codex."
It is rumored that the ancestors did not continue to look for the elixir of immortality, but took the five hundred boys and girls to a small island in the East China Sea to start a new life. ”I nodded and muttered, "It seems that not all of the content in Xu Fu's Codex is true, for example, this content about the strongest corpse monster is probably made up by him in order to deal with Qin Shi Huang. ”
