Chapter 427: The Old Man in White


As a dazzling golden light flashed, a stone wall as tall as two people suddenly emerged from the ground.

But on top of the stone wall, a ferocious beast's face was scattered on the ground.

Seeing the scene that suddenly appeared in front of him, Luo Chen subconsciously took a few steps back towards him.

To prevent yourself from encountering any strange hidden weapon mechanisms again.

But just as Luo Chen was retreating quickly, an old man in white suddenly appeared on the stone wall.

"Just now, you broke through the four evil tomb-locking formations seven or forty-nine times in a row."

At the same time that the old man in white appeared, a voice with a hint of desolation in his tone slowly reached Luo Chen's ears.

After hearing the words of the old man in white, Luo Chen pondered for a moment, then nodded gently.

He said in an indifferent tone: "Yes, it's me."

"So, then you are a tomb robber."

After seeing Luo Chen's calm expression, the old man in white raised his head and glanced at Luo Chen, and then slowly spoke.

After hearing the words of the old man in white, Luo Chen replied without hesitation: "I am not a tomb robber, but I do want to get something when I come here this time."

Although he didn't know who the old man in white was, Luo Chen still told the truth.

Anyway, Guixi has decided on it himself.

"Haha, it's not surprising that you want to steal the Ghost Seal, right?

For thousands of years, countless Taoist priests, tomb robbers, and even the royal family of later generations have come here to search for the whereabouts of the Ghost Seal.

But without exception, they all stayed here forever. " The old man in white clothes said, but there was a strange look in his eyes.

There was an emotion similar to loss in his eyes.

Hearing the words of the old man in white, Luo Chen frowned slightly.

He seemed to have never expected that the tomb of King Lu Shang would be so perverted.

For thousands of years, no one has been able to take Guixi out of the tomb of King Lu Shang.

But it is precisely this that gives me the opportunity to get the Guixi today.

Everything depends on whether I have the strength.

Just when Luo Chen was deep in thought, the old man in white continued to murmur as if talking to himself.

"Over the past thousands of years, no fewer than thousands of people have come here to look for Guixi.

But only about ninety people entered the black tower.

Among the more than ninety people, there were only three who entered the top of the tower and saw Guixi, but without exception, they all stayed there forever."

The old man in white clothes said, but there was a hint of loneliness in his eyes.

He seemed to be very disappointed that no one could get the Ghost Seal.

After seeing the expression in the eyes of the old man in white, Luo Chen's eyes showed a trace of doubt.

Since this old man in white appears in the tomb of King Lu Shang, he should be the tombkeeper.

But why, when he said that no one could get the Ghost Seal, there was a look of deep disappointment hidden in his eyes.

"You have said so much, but you haven't told me who you are yet."

After pondering for a while, Luo Chen directly asked the old man in white in a cold voice.

Hearing Luo Chen's words, the old man was slightly startled, and then laughed loudly and wildly.

"Hahahaha who am I?

Thousands of years have passed and I have long forgotten who I am, but I remember that I built this tomb."

When Luo Chen heard this, he was stunned again.

Since the tomb of King Lu Shang was built by the old man himself, Then why is he a little disappointed when he says that no one can survive the mechanism he designed?

Is it possible that this is the legendary master's loneliness, seeking defeat alone?

As if he noticed the doubt in Luo Chen's eyes, the old man in white raised his head and glanced at Luo Chen.

Then he continued to ask Luo Chen loudly.

"I see doubts in your eyes.

Ask whatever you want.

I haven't spoken to a living person for a long time."

As the old man spoke, the look of loneliness in his eyes became even stronger.

There may be many people in this world who want to live forever.

But for some people, eternal life is the most cruel punishment.

After hearing the words of the old man in white, Luo Chen didn't bother to waste time on detours, so he quickly asked.

"Since you built this tomb, why did you show a trace of deep disappointment in your eyes when you said that no one has been able to break through your mechanism and get the ghost seal for thousands of years?

A mechanism that no one in the world can break is the greatest glory of an mechanism master, so why don't you?"

As Luo Chen spoke, the doubt in his eyes became even more intense, but at this moment, the old man in white suddenly interrupted.

"A long time ago, I thought so too.

I had a wish since I was a child, That is to build an indestructible tomb so that those nasty tomb robbers can never steal anything.

But now, I realize how ridiculous my thoughts at that time were."

After hearing the words of the old man in white, Luo Chen asked with a confused look on his face.

"Oh, it's ridiculous.

What's so funny about this?

Just like those who practice martial arts hope that they will be invincible, and those who practice writing hope that they will be the best in the world, shouldn't you who build tombs do the same?"

"Haha, is that so?

If one day you die at the hands of your most proud work, will you still be so proud?

Since ancient times, there have been no living people building tombs.

I thought that the prince would spare my life for the sake of my skill.

Then I continued to work for their descendants, but I was still too naive, thinking that what they said would really count, haha, I was so naive."

As the old man in white said, the look of loneliness in his eyes became even stronger.

After hearing the words of the old man in white, Luo Chen understood something.

The old man in white was the one who built the tomb, but in order to prevent the old man in white from revealing the secrets of his tomb, the owner of the tomb killed him and left him in this cold tomb forever.

"Young man, let me give you a piece of advice.

If you still have some self-awareness, Just leave on your own as soon as possible, I won't continue to pursue it.

If you insist on thinking about that ghost seal, the key to the black tower passage, Just above this stone wall, if you solve the puzzle on it, the passage will open by itself.

But you must remember that the mechanisms inside the tower are ten times, or even a hundred times more powerful than the mechanisms outside."

The old man in white clothes said, but there was a glimmer of kindness in his eyes.

But behind the light of goodwill, there is something deeply hidden.

"Oh, you are obviously a tombkeeper, but you are here to give me advice.

Why do I feel something is wrong?

I don’t know if you’ve heard of a saying, it’s called being courteous for nothing, or stealing from you, what’s the hidden agenda?”

As Luo Chen said this, he raised his head and stared at the eyes of the old man in white with a pair of cold eyes, which clearly showed a hint of astonishment.

After seeing the look in Luo Chen's eyes, the look of astonishment in the eyes of the old man in white disappeared in an instant.

Instead, there was a look of anger.

"Humph, I think you are still young, otherwise you would have died in vain.

I kindly remind you, Since you are so ignorant, I won’t say anything more.

If you like to solve the riddles on the stone wall, go away if you don’t.”

The old man in white clothes said, but he waved his sleeves as if he was very angry, then turned around and stopped looking at Luo Chen, but he did not leave just yet.

Hearing the words of the old man in white, the doubt in Luo Chen's eyes became even more intense.

But at this moment, Yi Shengxue, who had been standing silently beside Luo Chen, suddenly spoke to the old man in white in a cold voice.

"Actually, you hope that we can take Guixi away far more than we do, right?

As long as that Guixi stays in this black tower for one day, You can't be reincarnated for a day, so you will be alone and trapped here forever, right?"

After hearing Yi Shengxue's words, the old man in white suddenly turned around and looked at Yi Shengxue,

His red eyes were full of anger.

"To this damn King Lu Shang, not only did he bury me alive here, He also imprisoned me here forever to prevent Guixi’s secret from being leaked.

But no one knows how to predict, someone will still find this place after thousands of years.

And I also used these people to tell Guixi’s secret to the world, But damn, none of these idiots can break my mechanism.

Even those who broke my mechanism, I am still no match for King Nalu Shang, I hate it."

When he said the last words, the old man in white looked up to the sky and roared, Just imagine that a person has been imprisoned alone for thousands of years, how deep the resentment in his heart must be.

Upon hearing the words of the old man in white, Luo Chen rolled his eyes, and then followed the words of the old man in white and spoke.

"I think you're in quite a bad situation, so how about you let us in, we'll take the Guixi and let you go, killing two birds with one stone and helping each other for mutual benefit."

"Hahaha, little one, do you think I'm a three-year-old?

Let me tell you, the puzzle on this stone wall is both a test and an opportunity.

If you can't even solve the puzzle, let alone the various hidden weapons and mechanisms in the Black Tower.

If you are lucky enough to crack it and set me free, I can also give you a treasure.

You don’t have much time, so you should seize the opportunity.”

As the old man in white said, he turned around and closed his eyes no longer looking at Luo Chen.

After seeing the decisive expression of the old man in white, Luo Chen was speechless.

However, Luo Chen also understood in his heart that if he couldn't even pass the first level, Then even if you enter the black tower, you will die in vain Thinking of this, Luo Chen raised his feet and walked towards the stone wall in front of him
