Chapter 394 Kun Gua Cemetery
Jiang Nanxi's expression changed instantly. "Didn't that thing just now miss the energy stone? How come one of my energy stones is still missing?"
When the ghost face approached, she saw a transparent hand trying to steal the energy stone, so she punched the guy out.
Jiang Nanxi was sure that he didn't touch it!
Since I didn’t touch it, how come there is one less energy stone?
Jiang Nanxi couldn't help but look at the big rooster suspiciously, "Aotian, did you take an extra energy stone from me?"
"How is that possible?"
The big rooster looked at her unhappily and said, "I only have one here, why would I steal yours?"
"Then why is there one less energy stone in my body?"
"How should I know?"
It was so tired after delivering the takeaway just now that it had no time to steal anything. It just wanted to eat more to replenish its energy!
"That's certainly not it."
Liu Qingyan's voice came, "I just felt a strange breath approaching you, but it wasn't brought by the ghost face mask.
However, I can't use my spiritual sense in this place, so I can't tell what it is. I just felt that it disappeared quickly, and it might be some kind of ghost living underground."
"Dad!"
Jiang Nanxi quickly put the remaining energy stones into the space to prevent them from being stolen again.
She took a big bite of fried chicken and said, "Let's move on after we finish eating. I have to find the thief who stole my things! I won't let her go!"
Although she has a lot of energy stones, they are so expensive! Missing one will cost her life!
Jiang Nanxi sat down to eat first, but his mind was full of the lost energy stone.
As for the other three guests.
They smelled the aroma of fried chicken nearby and looked in their direction, swallowing their saliva.
Since I came to the desert, I haven’t had a good meal since then!
"Let's go first!"
York said to the two people beside him.
He didn't want to continue watching them eat fried chicken, otherwise he would keep drooling.
But it was simply impossible for him to spend an energy stone to buy a bucket of fried chicken from Jiang Nanxi.
He is not a fool!
He only has a few of these rare energy stones, and he has to save them for cultivation!
They bypassed the large tank in the tunnel and went straight to the deeper part of the tunnel.
Jiang Nanxi watched them leave and said to Liu Qingyan, "There's only one road left over there. Let's go that way after we finish eating and see if there's anything strange going on here."
"Um."
Not long after, the two finished eating the fried chicken, and Jiang Nanxi put away the big tank in the passage first.
They walked in the direction the three men had left, with the big rooster following them.
Jiang Nanxi walked while observing the surrounding environment, stroking his chin in thought.
"What kind of ghost could it be that just stole my things?"
She was a little confused. "According to my current level of cultivation, I can sense most ghosts approaching me. But this time, the energy stone was stolen, and I didn't feel anything at all."
"Maybe it's not a ghost."
Liu Qingyan said thoughtfully, "When that ghost face appeared, it carried a strong ghost aura and resentment, causing ghost fog to surround you. I thought the thief was also a ghost.
But now that I think about it, the ghost fog might just be caused by Ghost Face, and the theft might be caused by some kind of spirit."
There are differences between spirits and ghosts. Some ghosts are formed from ghosts, some are some kind of evil spirits, while spirits are some special things that absorb the spiritual energy of heaven and earth and cultivate into spirits.
The longer a monster exists, the more powerful it becomes. Many inorganic objects can also be cultivated into monsters.
Not long after the two finished talking, they found that the passage they were walking through was getting wider and wider, and there were more and more openings on the stone walls on both sides of the passage.
Inside these openings are rectangular stone chambers of the same size and shape, which at first glance look like tomb chambers in some kind of cemetery.
But if these places are said to be tombs, there is nothing inside.
Jiang Nanxi walked to one of the stone chambers, looked around and said, "This looks like a large ancient tomb. The cave we went to just now even had mummies buried with the dead. But why is there nothing in these stone chambers?
In ancient times, anyone who could build such a large tomb must have been a high-ranking official. It's impossible that there were no burial objects here at all. This is too shabby!"
Liu Qingyan thought for a moment and said, "Is it possible that there are burial objects here, but we just can't see them?"
"You mean, there's a blocking formation here?"
"Um."
Liu Qingyan stood in the passage, pointing to the stone chambers on both sides of the passage and said, "The areas of these stone chambers are different. If we look down from above, we can see these stone chambers as horizontal bars of the same length.
There are a total of six stone chambers here, three on the left and three on the right, which are exactly symmetrical, forming a Kun hexagram.
The Book of Changes states that Kun represents the Earth, the source of all things. Qi originates from the sky, and form is born from the earth. Heaven and earth combine their virtues, and hardness and softness have a body. The character "Kun" is composed of the characters "earth" and "shen." Earth represents Kun, and "shen" represents Kun's direction, symbolizing the directions of the Eight Trigrams of the Later Heaven.
Jiang Nanxi: "Oh~~~~"
Liu Qingyan looked at her with admiration, "It seems that you think the same as me. Do you also think..."
Jiang Nanxi: "I don't understand."
Liu Qingyan: "..."
I didn't understand you, what?
Liu Qingyan was speechless for a while before saying, "What I mean is that the people who built this cemetery used these stone chambers to transform the terrain and arranged a Kun hexagram here.
But the Kun hexagram is not used to cover the burial objects, but to represent the growth of qi. I think there must be something growing under this place.
Judging from the situation in the cave just now, the creatures here are definitely not good. You should be careful."
Jiang Nanxi was surprised, "They've set up formations here to raise animals? It turns out this is a breeding farm."
"..." Liu Qingyan's mouth twitched and he said, "You could say that."
Jiang Nanxi asked again, "What does the obstructing formation look like? Where is it?"
"I don't know yet."
Liu Qingyan continued to walk forward. "We can't see anything here, and we can't find the formation. Let's continue to walk forward and take a look."
"All right."
The two continued walking forward.
There was a dark environment ahead, and even the flashlight could not shine through it, as if it was covered by a thick fog.
As they walked forward, they felt that the passage was getting larger and wider.
Bang, bang, bang!
Heavy footsteps were heard.
Before they could see what was in the distance, they heard the shouts of York and others.
"Run! Run back!"
“help!”
"Find a place to hide!"
"There's an empty room to hide in when you come!"
After a while, they saw the three foreign guests who had just left running back, their faces pale and with fear still in their eyes.
And behind them, in the thick black fog, something seemed to be wriggling.
