Chapter 137 44 Cold Immortal Taboo and Ice Attic! [Two in One]
Chapter 137 44. Cold Immortal Taboo and Ice Attic! [Two-in-one]
Zheng Yun walked to the burnt off-road vehicle and looked around carefully, but found no clues. It was too old and only a frame was left after being burned.
"What happened to this car?"
"Is it spontaneously combusted or something?"
Hu Ruihua and others also noticed this and gathered around these snowmobiles, with more puzzled tones.
"Is there a ghost fire here from last time? Was this car burned by a ghost fire?" Hu Zi said in a startled whisper.
They hadn't seen the video.
They didn't know that this car was burned by someone.
"This was burned by humans. In the video that Song Wan found, five or six people used torches and gasoline to burn it." Zheng Yun gave them a brief explanation.
This question is probably the most important one. It is the most bizarre one among the videos from twenty years ago. As long as we find out the reason for the car burning, we should be able to get some answers.
But this reason is really hard to find.
It has been burned like this, how can we find it?
"Burning car? There must be something in the car?" Hu Zi made a guess subconsciously.
"Or maybe there is something that needs to be dispelled?" Hu Ruihua looked at Zheng Yun. He remembered the fire in the Hades Pavilion. Zheng Yun said at that time that the Yin soldiers were afraid of fire, and it might be the same here.
Zheng Yun shook his head.
He didn't know either.
"This fire may be related to the Hanxian Cave." Ji Dao suddenly walked to Zheng Yun and whispered in his ear.
"How do you say it?" Zheng Yun asked immediately.
"Whether it is the fairy or the monster in the Hanxian Cave, it will eat any living thing. As long as it is targeted by the Hanxian, it can't run away unless it is burned to ashes in advance." Ji Dao explained in a low voice.
"But what does this have to do with the car?" Zheng Yun couldn't understand. His words were obviously a bit problematic.
"Master Yun, at the end of the video, did the arsonist take the initiative to walk into the fire?" Ji Dao asked with a change of expression.
"No, it's not in the video..." Zheng Yun's hair stood up all over his body. Ji Dao's words were indeed a bit scary.
"Fuck." Hu Zi also exclaimed.
Ji Dao did not hide it from him. He secretly listened to Ji Dao's words and was frightened to the point of paleness and trembling all over.
"Why, what is the purpose of throwing fire, to drive away the cold fairy?" Zheng Yun frowned and asked Ji Dao.
"No, the cold fairy cannot be driven away by fire. If these people try to take refuge with fire, they must burn themselves to ashes to escape." Ji Dao shook his head.
"What's the point?" Hu Ruihua was puzzled.
It's a death anyway. Is it comfortable to be burned to death? It's better to shoot yourself and close your eyes. What's the use of cold fairy and eating.
"What Master Ji said is true. There are indeed some traces of bones here." Hu Zi suddenly interrupted and pointed to the vehicle.
Everyone immediately surrounded it.
The few people in the white rescue team didn't understand what they were saying, but they followed them around.
Following the direction of Hu Zi's finger, there were indeed some objects that looked like bone remains in the frozen car.
Seeing this scene.
Everyone else looked at Ji Dao.
Zheng Yun also recalled the contents of Hanxian Cave, saying that a prince presented a map, and later the boat master went to find it, but the 100 people who were traveling with him violated the taboo and were eaten by Hanxian.
"I really don't know the rest. This is what my master said. As long as the taboo is violated, only Ashes can escape Hanxian, except for this..." Ji Dao patted his chest and quietly gave Zheng Yun a wink.
He had an extremely cold poisonous insect in his pocket.
This thing is not eaten by Hanxian Cave.
At this point, Zheng Yun was relieved. They were not unprepared. At least there was a poisonous insect.
"What are the taboos?" Hu Ruihua asked.
"There are three taboos: making loud noises to disturb Hanxian, hunting animals without sacrifice, and eating in the cave in reverse."
Zheng Yun answered this question.
It is clearly written on the map of Changsheng Xianfu.
At present, they should not have violated these three taboos, because they should not have reached Hanxian Cave, and they don't even know where it is.
"What's the logic of throwing yourself into the fire? It's better to commit suicide, why suffer?" Hu Ruihua couldn't help asking.
Ji Dao shook his head. He was just guessing, and Zheng Yun didn't know at all. This part was not written on the Immortal Palace Map.
Everyone was silent for a moment.
Zheng Yun decided to continue to look forward. If the situation was not right, he would withdraw. There was no need to die.
It can only be said that the things left by his adoptive father really didn't give any clues. Maybe the things were not for him to see, but his own itinerary plan.
The situation is getting more and more confusing.
They know about the earth orifice and the cold fairy cave, but they don't know whether the scientific expedition team who died is clear. If they say they know, they are in trouble. If they say they don't know, they can actually dig a stealing hole directly and get into this place.
That city wall is unheard of even by himself and others. The archaeological team twenty years ago had a clear goal, and today's scientific expedition team can also go deep into it according to a certain clue.
Where did they get the news?
It can't be discovered by accident.
"Let's go." Zheng Yun didn't think any more and asked the ghost general to lead the way out of the gap and return to the narrow path to continue forward.
Everyone was full of doubts and pondered hard. After hearing Zheng Yun's words, they packed up their things and followed the ghost general.
Standing on this steep road again, their emotions changed. They scanned the flashlight left and right more frequently, especially the city wall behind them. They looked at it over and over again, fearing that a cold fairy would suddenly appear there and want to eat people.
The traces on the ground remain.
The scientific expedition team is still further ahead...
The ghost general walked in front with a sword. It showed no reaction from the beginning to the end. The sword was only drawn out on Zheng Yun's order.
Went forward some distance.
The sound of knocking on the ice wall was more obvious, as if it was not far ahead, but under the rift valley.
"There's something on the other side!"
Huzi suddenly spoke, pointing the flashlight at the middle of the right front of the rift valley, and there was something faintly visible in the flashlight light.
Everyone moved forward quickly.
Only when they got closer did they realize that this was actually an iron cable bridge, extending from the ice wall about a hundred meters below them and connecting to a rock wall cable bridge on the opposite side of the rift valley.
The rope bridge is even narrower, only 20 centimeters wide at most, but some distance ahead is a swing bridge nailed to the wall, falling in a zigzag pattern, all the way to the bottom of the valley.
There is a brick hole at the bottom of the valley.
Don't know where it leads.
"The scientific expedition team has passed." Hu Ruihua lowered his head and looked forward. The traces on the ground disappeared from here, and the scientific expedition team made ice nails and ropes to get down to the bridge from here.
"This place is so complicated and evil, I'm really dizzy." Huzi said in a low voice while holding on to the wall.
"You guys can stay, Jidao and I will go over and take a look." Zheng Yun glanced at Jidao's chest. They had a Gu insect, and hopefully they could protect it a bit, making it stronger than the others.
Already come this far.
It’s impossible not to go and take a look.
They are all capable men and strangers. Whether they are ghost generals or Ji Dao, they all have special skills. They carry black jade pillows with them, so they still have the confidence to enter such secret places.
Below the brick hole is the glacier.
The worst case scenario is to drive away in a black jade pillow.
"I'll go too." Although Huzi was scared, he still stepped forward and showed no signs of timidity.
Otherwise, he wouldn't be able to get hit again and again.
"No, let's take a look and come back." Zheng Yun shook his head, untied the rope around his body, then picked up the oxygen mask and small oxygen bottle, and asked Ji Dao and others to put them on.
What they fear most now is things like ghost general powder, Zhang Ergou's blood monkey, and the gas from the iceberg on the bow of the ship, which can kill people silently.
Oxygen masks are more thorough than gas masks. They do not interact with the outside gas at all and can isolate most dangers.
Another source of confidence was given to them by Ji Dao's master. They knew clearly that Ji Dao's master came twenty years ago and took away the ice Gu.
Since he can come.
Can you come by yourself and wait for others?
Although Ji Dao claimed that he was not good at learning, he was not lacking in knowledge and should not be much worse than his master.
Since Master Ji Dao can go back and forth safely, Ji Dao should not be disappointed here and die together with him.
"How about I roar first?" Ji Dao also imitated Zheng Yun's movements and opened the complicated lock.
"You roar the iceberg and it's over." Zheng Yun said softly. After Ji Dao and Gui Jiang put on their oxygen masks, they reached out to grab the rope, stepped back and slid down.
It didn't take long.
Zheng Yun stood on the iron cable bridge.
This bridge is obviously in the style of the Ming Dynasty Triton. It is so thick and strong that even a car can walk on it.
Then came the two ghost generals, who were obviously more skilled, stepping lightly on the single-strand iron rope.
Ji Dao also followed closely.
As soon as he came down, he whispered to Zheng Yun: "Master Xian, in fact, I can roughly tell that this is probably Haiwei who is locking the demon. They may have locked Han Xian here."
"Lock demon?"
Zheng Yun was slightly startled.
"The city wall only has those functions, either to protect against external enemies or to protect against internal enemies. The city wall just now was obviously not used to protect against external enemies, so it can only be used to protect against internal enemies."
"I have seen the Demon Locking Tower in ancient books before. The monsters are locked in the tower and cannot leave. Maybe it is just ahead."
"There are not many Demon Locking Towers in the entire Supervisory Immortal Division that require protection from the city wall. Since we have never heard of it and there are no ancient books, then this place is probably abandoned, but for some reason, it appeared again. some things.”
Ji Dao reasoned with a serious expression.
His words made sense, but the problem was also obvious. Zheng Yun thought for a moment and asked:
"Even if the cold fairy is extremely dangerous, it is in an inaccessible place in the ice and snow and will not harm the lives of ordinary people. Why does Haiwei have to travel thousands of miles to lock down the demon?"
"Master Immortal, locking demons is not necessarily for protection, but it may also be for controlling demons. Whether it is the Dragon Control Technique of the Heavenly Palace or the Submerged Demon Pregnancy Tower, it is actually locked first and then controlled."
Nobuyoshi continued to explain.
"Then why was this place abandoned and the so-called Han Immortal was not preserved?" Zheng Yun raised his head and looked at the brick hole opposite.
The brick cave is made of bricks and stones. It is no longer an ice area, but goes deep into the rock wall. Maybe it is a place where monsters are locked inside, and the degree of danger is unpredictable.
But the sound of knocking ice is inside.
It sounded like someone was banging on an ice sled.
"Master Immortal, let's go in and take a look. We can tell what's going on at a glance. Since this place was built by Triton, we only need to go in and we'll know what's going on."
Ji Dao looked around with a flashlight, then listened carefully, pointed to the depth of the brick hole and said, "The suspected human voice and the sound of knocking ice are from down there."
Zheng Yun nodded and asked the ghost general to clear the way. He walked forward holding the iron chain handrail. Each step of the iron chain bridge had a huge span, and it took a big step to walk across.
Walked to the other side of the rift valley.
They circled for a while.
Finally, they got down to the brick cave.
Hu Ruihua and others were high up behind them, using several flashlights to provide them with lighting. Hu Zi stared at the small backs of Zheng Yun and his friends with envy.
This is too cruel.
Brother Zheng and his friends are really the dragon's den and tiger's den in the sky and the earth. They dare to go anywhere. There is no place in the world that they can't go, and they have the confidence to go.
When will I have the confidence to go over and see what kind of relics of gods and ghosts left by the ancients in the depths of this extremely cold place with ice and snow...
He thought here.
Zheng Yun and others have already stood at the entrance of the cave.
The flashlight shone into the cave. This brick wall cave was very impressive. It was about three meters wide and a hundred meters deep. At the end was a cave room with a huge space. The flashlight could not reach the end.
"Could this be the Hanxian Cave?"
Zheng Yun glanced at the entrance of the cave. There were no instructions or words left by the ancients, not even a stone tablet.
"I don't think it should be." Ji Dao shook his head and pointed to the brick wall on the side and said, "This corridor is so wide, probably to facilitate the transportation of goods."
"Then go in and take a look."
Zheng Yun still let the ghost general go in first.
It's not that the ghost general's life is worthless, but they can't be considered living things, and some of their abilities have not been fully developed, such as how they survived to this day.
This Hanxian Cave also has some immortality.
Maybe the ghost general can have a miraculous effect here.
Following the ghost general into the cave, the sound of knocking on the ice became more obvious, and it sounded very strange.
Crack...
Crack...
Zheng Yun suppressed his emotions and walked to the end with the ghost general in one breath. He walked out from the other end of the corridor, then raised the flashlight and looked around with great vigilance.
"Hiss."
Zheng Yun couldn't help but inhale.
Because this was actually a huge underground palace, surrounded by thick stone pillars six or seven meters high, supporting the dome of the underground room, but the dome was not a solid top, but a whole wall of pale blue, looking terrifying ice!
This ice layer was pressing on their heads.
It was tightly sealed by countless iron chains.
And in the center of this underground room, there was also the same ice layer, which was bottomless and unknown how deep it was!
The entire underground room was like a mezzanine dug out of an iceberg, and the scenery was really too shocking.
Because the venue was wide.
But the height was only six or seven meters.
The ice layer weighing tens of millions of pounds was right above the head, pressing people so hard that they could hardly breathe, and anyone would be terrified.
"Master Xian, look ahead."
Ji Dao raised his hand and pointed to the end.
There is an attic frozen in the iceberg. It is unclear how many floors it has, but its top is frozen in the ice layer above, and the rest of the attic is not in the thick ice layer under the feet.
It is frozen from top to bottom, and only the interlayer is not frozen. At this time, the door of the attic is wide open, deep and strange.
"Is this the Demon Locking Pavilion?"
Zheng Yun looked at the attic and murmured.
He really didn't expect that it would be like this. What did the ancients do here?
Why did they make such a big fuss?
Although this space is not worth mentioning for the entire iceberg, the stone pillar support can keep the space from collapsing, and the ice layer itself is easy to dig, and it doesn't take much manpower.
But the temperature here is extremely low!
It is minus 20 to 30 degrees. Even if the body temperature is higher, it is still an extremely cold place. Did the ancients build an attic here?
