Deep in the palace, it was dark. Xiang Yu couldn't see clearly. He could only vaguely detect the flicker of one or two weak oil lamps.
Seeing this, Zhou Quan and others unconsciously looked at Xiang Yu.
"Judging from the fighting traces on the ground, Xiliang ghost is not friendly to Sha KeYue, which is good news for us. No matter how dangerous it is, we can only go and have a look together." Xiang Yu calmly analyzed and led us to move on.
The palace of the fourth hall is very deep. There is no array arrangement along the way, and the scattered skeleton is much less. Xiang Yu and others walked slowly for more than half an hour before they found a large altar.
The altar is already in the deepest part of the palace. It is a circle more than ten feet wide, with a circle of nearly exhausted oil lamps on the outside. Hundreds of array symbols in it form a five pointed star pattern. In the center of the pattern, an old man in white clothes with white beard and white hair sits on his knees.
The old man has three-star moon cultivation. His face is covered by long hair. He can't see clearly, but judging from the length of his beard and eyebrows, he must have lived for hundreds of years.
"Xiang Yu, I'm from Xuantian." After Xiang Yu made a big gift, Zhou Quan and others quickly agreed with him.
The old man still didn't look up, just moved his little finger a little, and then walked out dozens of human skeletons from the darkness behind him.
These skeletons are all above the moon empty realm. They are unarmed. Judging from the color of their bones, they are not very hard. I think they didn't deliberately refine their bodies.
At the end of the skeleton, two tall skeletons are holding a faint woman. It is Sha KeYue who has lost an arm. When Zhou Quan and others see the woman who killed their brother, they are all angry and gnash their teeth.
The skeletons stopped beside the old man. The old man also slowly raised his head and said in a very hoarse voice, "she was hurt by you?"
Xiang Yu couldn't help but be surprised. The voice seemed to come from the abyss under the ground, and it seemed to be filled with sand in his throat. It was very uncomfortable to hear. Zhou Quan and others were also at a loss.
After experiencing the baptism of the evil thoughts of the heartless Valley, Xiang Yu's control of these bad emotions has been greatly improved, and immediately recovered calm. He replied: "yes, her name is Sha KeYue. She is cruel and ruthless. She is the evil repair wanted by the Fenglei empire. Before, she was hurt by our joint efforts. Is there any friendship between the elder and her?"
The old man fiddled with the white hair in front of his face, revealing a face full of wrinkles, but his eyes were deep. After a light look at Xiang Yu, he said: "I have no friendship with her, and it's also because of her recklessness to catch her. You must have seen the stone murals in the third hall. Let's talk about the Xuantian continent."
The old man's voice has improved a lot, and it doesn't sound so weird. Xiang Yu also confirms that the old man's identity is Xiliang ghost, and respectfully replies, "yes. Xuantian continent is now ruled by the central imperial dynasty of Li Xun and other three giants. In addition, there are Fenglei Empire and Shaoyan Empire, and then there are four big Duchess and twelve small states. The name of the elder Xiliang song did not spread in Xuantian, but there are many signs similar to that of the elder Xiliang song. This time they returned to Xiliang's secret land, they entered it by their family secret map. "
The old man stared at Zhou Quan for a long time and didn't speak. He seemed to feel whether he had the flavor of Xiliang family. But he finally shook his head, turned to Xiang Yu and said, "the old man of Xiliang hexagram is a real array wizard. You can crack the Xiliang City array. It's very good to go deep into the underground palace, but you want to find the exit to return to the Xuantian continent?"
He didn't ask about the Zhou family. It seemed that he didn't think that Xiliang song was the Duke of Zhou Mo, which made Zhou Quan's face a little depressed. Xiang Yu also answered with a little surprise: "it's true that the Xuantian continent is not peaceful. We need to go back. We just don't know if the teleportation array can be used."
When the old man closed his eyes, he seemed to be recalling a very long time ago. "After seeing off Xiliang pine, Xiliang Gua and Zhiwang together built this longevity array, which made dozens of people live for hundreds of years. But with the passage of time, they all died, only I, who was not afraid of loneliness, was left. I turned their corpses into puppets and guarded the family with me. However, just a hundred years ago, for some unknown reason, the whole underground suddenly vibrated violently for seven days, and the buried Xiliang city also changed greatly. Then there was a passage to return to Xuantian continent, and people from Xuantian continent gradually entered the underground palace. This passage is not far behind me. "
Xiang Yu and others were overjoyed. "Thank you, master. But since the passage appeared more than 100 years ago, why didn't you go out first? Do you want to go back with us this time? "
Xiliang ghost shook his head, opened his eyes and looked at the skeletons standing around. It seemed that he saw the group of people who were close to him and fought together. He sighed: "I have lived more than 100 years than them. Once I leave this longevity array, I will be killed immediately."
Xiang Yu was relieved that the Xiliang ghost was trapped in the underground palace forever.
"I am hundreds of years older than you, so I should send you some precious utensils. But as you know, there are no resources left in the family. Even the pills and utensils left after the death of all the people have been integrated into this array to extend their life. Today, I'll give you a piece of experience of puppetry. "Then he took out a dozen jade slips, "but puppet technique needs the ability of multitasking and good puppet materials. If you can't do this, don't practice this skill, because the puppet master's defense is very poor. If he doesn't handle it properly, he will easily be attacked and killed by others. "
After that, he threw the bamboo slips to Xiang Yu. After paying homage, Xiang Yu used more than half an hour to make ten copies of the bamboo slips and handed them to Li Ru and Zhou Quan.
During this period, Xiliang ghost did not speak, but just stared at it with no expression. Xiang Yu only glanced at the puppet's experience when copying. He found that some basic parts were similar to Bai Wan'er's, but most of them were still different. Especially in the description of how to refine puppets, Xiliang ghost seemed to have a unique opinion, which made Xiang Yu more curious.
But at this time, the most important thing is to leave Xiliang underground palace and return to Xuantian mainland as soon as possible. Once again, he respectfully said, "thank you, master. We are leaving now."
Xiliang ghost nodded and looked at Sha KeYue, who was in a coma, and said, "since this evil repair has a grudge against you, go and kill her."
Without hesitation, Xiang Yu took out his sword and walked over.
Sha KeYue has committed a terrible crime. Even if she is killed now, Xiang Yu will not hesitate because of the so-called morality.
The two huge skeletons were still firmly clamped. Xiang Yu's sword flashed, and a head fell to the ground, splashing with fresh blood.
