Chapter 917: Underground Tomb
Wei Changtian had thought about what this illusion array was originally used for.
But this matter was not very important, and there were no clues, so he did not investigate further.
And now, when Yang Liushi told him that the wooden pillars here were all the most suitable for making coffins, he suddenly had a bold guess -
This is a tomb! Or a mausoleum!
The purpose of the illusion array is to hide this tomb!
"No way."
Looking around with eyes wide open, Wei Changtian muttered subconsciously.
However, although he said no, he felt more and more that even if this guess was not right, it should be almost right.
After all, they are so similar!
First of all, the small mound where Yun'an Temple is located is much higher than the surrounding area, and it itself looks like a large tomb.
Secondly, according to Pu Xuan, the illusion array was disguised as a temple from the day it was set up.
Why disguise it as a temple instead of some other place? Because temples have a steady stream of pilgrims coming to burn incense! Although the pilgrims are worshipping Buddha, they are worshipping on this grave after all, so isn't it equivalent to someone always accumulating good karma for the owner of this grave?
Add to that these ebony pillars. After glancing at the copper coins scattered at his feet and the thick incense ash accumulated from years of burning incense, Wei Changtian immediately decided to find out what was going on.
He didn't want to find out the truth, but he thought that if this was really a tomb, there must be good things inside!
To be able to set up such an illusion array to cover up, the person lying underneath must have been a big shot in the past.
Who knows, he might be some ancient powerful being. How could he not have any treasures buried with him?
It would be awesome if we could dig out a terracotta warrior His expression gradually became excited, Wei Changtian immediately threw away the ebony in his hand, and his internal force surged around his body, turning into a strong wind that blew away the incense ash and gravel on the ground.
"My husband, what are you doing?"
Yang Liushi blinked: "Looking for the entrance?"
"yes."
Wei Changtian nodded, realizing that Yang Liushi had made the same analysis, and urged directly, "Don't just stand there, help quickly!"
"Okay!"
Her eyes lit up, and Yang Liushi now looked a bit like Xu Qingwan.
However, if Comrade Xiao Xu were really here, he would probably be so excited that he would faint.
Yang Liushi was not as greedy as Xu Qingwan, but not much different. She first waved her hand to perform a simple illusion to cover up the place, and then began to "clean" the surrounding ground with the same excitement.
Two second-rank masters personally "swept the floor", and the open space of nearly a hundred feet in radius was quickly cleared, and even a few weeds were not spared.
Unfortunately, the two failed to find the entrance to the tomb.
Fortunately, Wei Changtian dug out a complete piece of ebony.
This ebony tree is about fifty meters long. The part exposed above the ground is very dry, then there is a section in the middle that is quite wet, and then the bottom section becomes dry again.
This means that the bottom section is not buried by soil, and it also proves that there is definitely a secret space underground.
"My husband, what should we do now?"
Looking at the long black wood, Yang Liushi was a little anxious: "We can't find the entrance anywhere. Should we look for it somewhere farther away?"
"No."
Wei Changtian glanced at the small hole left by the ebony and squinted his eyes before answering:
"Just dig along this hole."
"That's right!"
Yang Liushi was immediately delighted: "My husband, you are so smart!"
"Stop talking about these useless things and get started!"
"Um!"
“.”
The loess is flying and the sand and gravel are flying.
They did it right away. Wei Changtian and Yang Liushi started digging the grave along the small hole.
If there really is a tomb underground, I wonder if its owner would be so angry about this scene that he would resurrect.
Of course, something like pretending to be dead is too fantastic and should not happen.
However, just as Wei Changtian was digging hard, in a residential house not far from here, an old man who looked like a withered tree, with a deathly pale face and looked almost dead at first glance, slowly opened his eyes.
"Godfather!"
An urgent call was heard beside the bed, and the old man who woke up was Guankong.
He had been unconscious since Wei Changtian and Yang Liushi practiced breaking the formation the night before, and this was the first time he woke up.
Judging from his pale face, the backlash caused by the breaking of the illusion array must have been extremely serious, and it almost cost him his life.
Fortunately, Lin Zhi escaped back and gave him some pills, which prevented him from falling into the gutter in the end. "Foster father, how do you feel?"
Next to him, Lin Zhi, who had been guarding the room the whole time, waited for Guan Kong to calm down for a while before slowly helping him up. He asked carefully, "Do you want some water?"
“.”
Shaking his head feebly, Guan Kong asked very weakly, "How long have I been unconscious?"
"In less than two days."
Lin Zhi answered, then lowered his head and said in a low voice with great self-blame: "Foster father, I failed to kill Wei Changtian."
"I already know that."
Guan Kong laughed bitterly: "Alas, I didn't expect that the fox demon would come back early."
"Yes, I am no match for her."
The self-blame in Lin Zhi's eyes became even stronger: "If I hadn't brought a Qingjue jade pendant, I would have died in her hands."
"Never mind, it's not your fault."
Guan Kong did not blame Lin Zhi. After taking a few breaths, he asked again:
"What did Wei Changtian do during the time I was unconscious?"
"I stayed by my foster father's side most of the time and didn't ask too much."
Lin Zhi answered truthfully: "But Su Qi changed his flag and rebelled yesterday, and now the troops inside and outside the city are preparing their weapons and food."
“Is that so.”
Guankong was silent for a moment and did not ask any more questions about the matter.
He seemed to be a little hesitant, but in the end he looked at Lin Zhi and said slowly, word by word: "My father is fine, you don't have to worry."
"Now there is something else you need to do immediately."
"Godfather, please speak!"
Noticing that Guankong's eyes had become serious, Lin Zhi understood that this matter must be of great importance, so he immediately straightened up, determined to make up for his mistake of not being able to kill Wei Changtian.
Then, when he heard Guankong slowly explain what the matter was, his expression gradually changed from serious to surprised.
"Godfather, I understand. I'll go right away."
"Well, remember not to make any mistakes this time."
"Please rest assured, foster father!"
“.”
The afterglow of the setting sun was golden, and Lin Zhi quickly left the courtyard and disappeared in the blood-red Linchuan City.
Just as he walked out of the courtyard gate, Wei Changtian and Yang Liushi on the other side were already standing in a spacious underground tomb.
As if they were under a spell of immobilization, the two of them did not move, but their breathing was very rapid.
I don’t know how much time had passed before I heard Wei Changtian mutter two words in great surprise and excitement.
“Fuck.”
