Shen Shi gave a dry cough and said, "this golden tire stone is of great value. If you can take it out and study it carefully, maybe you can make something good."
Xiao Hei curled his mouth, grunted a few times, then shook his head and walked forward with dignity.
There was light in the passage. At the same time, at this depth, there were less debris such as gravel and falling soil, and the road became easier. Shen Shi simply put away the fireball used for lighting before. In this dangerous and unknown underground labyrinth, it is better to save some spiritual power.
After walking for a while, the passage feels a little wider and wider, the surrounding light is also bright, and the stone carving patterns on the ground and the stone wall are gradually clear, which makes people feel as if they are getting closer to something. An ancient but powerful breath is diffused in the passage.
Everything is still very quiet, there is no exception. Now, Shen Shi is sure that this place is the legendary demon clan underground palace in nine cases out of ten. Under the Qinglongshan mountains, this passage must be a large-scale building, so it is almost impossible to have a second choice.
But I don't know why, the legend in the underground palace is full of ferocious ghosts and monsters, but he hasn't seen them until now.
Is it because I am still outside the demon clan underground palace?
Thinking of this, he could not help thinking about Zhong Qinglu. There was still no trace of her along the way. Where did she go?
As he walked, Shen Shi suddenly stopped and looked forward. In front of the passage, which had been silent for a long time, there was a change at last.
It's the end of the tunnel.
There appeared a gate, a tall, simple and closed stone gate.
Shen Shi came forward slowly and looked at the stone gate carefully. The stone gate, about three feet high, completely sealed every inch of the passage, leaving no space. At the same time, unlike the surrounding brick walls, the stone gate was blank. Except for some patterns on the edge of the door frame, there was only a ferocious tiger head statue in the middle of the stone gate In addition, there is no carving pattern.
The pale and hard stone stands there coldly, just like a lonely but persistent guard, holding the secret behind the door for a long time.
Shen Shi tried to push forward twice. However, the stone gate at the tentacle was so heavy that it didn't seem to be able to be opened by human force at all. So he quickly gave up the attempt, and then his eyes fell on the tiger's head mark on the stone gate.
At this moment, an idea suddenly flashed through his heart. Behind the stone gate, was it the real demon clan underground palace?
So behind this door, will there be countless monsters and ghosts?
There is a tiger in the stone gate. It is ferocious and fierce. Although the relief is not huge, a tiger's head is vividly carved, showing its own awe inspiring power. Shen Shiduan looked at the carved tiger head for a moment, and suddenly felt a little familiar. When he thought about it carefully, he remembered that the design seemed to be similar to the totem of a red tiger demon tribe he had seen when he was still in the demon world.
The red tiger demon tribe was finally destroyed under the fierce attack of the azure snake demon tribe led by Yulin. Except for a few escaped fish, almost all the adult soldiers and the older tribe teenagers were killed by the azure snake demon tribe.
The tribal war within the demon clan has always been so cruel, which may be beyond the understanding of most people who have occupied the dominant position in the Hongmeng world. To tell you the truth, Shen Shi also feels a little confused about this, so when he comes back from the demon world and his life stabilizes, whenever he has the opportunity to read in the sea of books in Lingxiao sect, Shen Shi will pay attention to the records in this aspect.
But what surprised him was that according to the records of the ancient books collected by lingxiaozong from the time of the demon king court, when the demon clan was strong, in addition to the high status of the demon emperor, most of the low-level demon clans had disputes and conflicts, but never had such a fierce internal struggle, let alone the internal conflict It's easy to exterminate.
It seems that in the past ten thousand years, not only the Terran side has undergone tremendous changes, but also the remnant demons who are isolated from the demon world have undergone some strange changes that are unknown to the public. They have become the scene of endless fighting among many tribes in the demon world today.
Thinking a little further, Shen Shi shakes his head and takes back his thoughts. His eyes return to the stone carving of tiger's head in front of him. Most of the vivid tiger's head is made of the same stone as the surrounding stone gates. Only in the place of his two eyes are two bright and dark Brown gems.
The brilliance of the gemstone is flickering gently. It seems to have some vitality, just like two real eyes, watching the world outside the stone door.
Shen Shi looked at the tiger's head for a long time. In the middle, he tried to reach out and touch the gem in the tiger's eyes, but neither the stone gate nor the tiger's head had any reaction. If you think about it, such a heavy and thick stone gate has locked this passage. Of course, it is impossible to put the door opening mechanism on the door, otherwise anyone can open the door by pressing the tiger's head. What's the significance of this door?Shen Shi took a step back, frowned slightly, and thought passed in his eyes. In his current way, if he could not find a way to open the door or a key, he would not be able to open the heavy stone gate. Moreover, at this moment, another idea floated in his mind:
he had only one path along the way, and the stone gate blocked all the gaps in the way, and no matter how he looked at the stone gate They don't look like they used to. In other words, Zhong Qinglu, the biggest reason that Shen Shi traced all the way here, is probably not on this road or in the passageway inside and outside the stone gate.
Maybe behind the door is the real labyrinth of the demon clan. Maybe behind the door is the precious spiritual materials hidden by the demon clan in the past. But obviously, in addition to these most beautiful things, there is a great possibility that there may be a vast expanse of fierce ghosts and monsters standing behind the door, waiting for the stone gate to open, and then they rush up to connect Shen Shi with Xiao Hei Two guys eat it together.
There is a big gap between the two results, which is really a big difference. In Shen Shi's opinion, it seems that in any case, the latter is more likely. Over the years, he has always remembered what his father Shen Tai said on the day when he was separated from him. Maybe some words and sentences are different, but the truth is the same:
there are hundreds of millions of people in the world. Luck can't just fall on you. Even if you have one or two bad luck in your life, who can guarantee that every time will be the same Is that so?
Luck is always good for others! The best choice is to be down-to-earth.
Over the years, Shen Shi has been doing this. At the moment, his mind has not changed.
So he quickly turned around, called Xiao Hei, and went back to the way he came.
If the stone gate is closed and no one passes through, it's almost impossible for Zhong Qinglu to be missing from here. Now, Shen Shi's first priority is to find Zhong Qinglu as soon as possible, which is the most important reason why he takes Xiaohei's adventure to go deep into the underground labyrinth. Since there was no one here, of course, he had no intention to open the door.
As the figure he left gradually walked away, the silence in the passage was restored. The stone gate stood quietly here, as if it were a persevering guard, guarding the secret of the underground palace for thousands of years. Only on the stone gate, in the eyes of the tiger head pattern, the light of two glittering gems was flowing. It seemed that no matter where Shen Shi went or which corner he passed, his back could be seen in these tiger eyes, just like real eyes.
On the way over, Shen Shi once passed a fork. In addition to the first road, there were two branches, one leading to the stone gate, the other a completely dark and strange road.
Although I don't like that kind of smell very much, now, it's obvious that the missing Zhong Qinglu may have been taken to the fork road. Shen Shi strides back. It seems that his choice this time is totally wrong. It's a long delay. Even Shen Shi's heart is a little anxious.
Qinglu, she Don't let anything happen.
The sound of footsteps, not long after, Shen Shi's eyes again appeared that touch of golden light, once again came to the strange golden stone.
His steps slowed down subconsciously, but then he seemed to wake up. Soon he took a deep breath, stopped looking at the stone, and walked past the golden tire stone.
Xiao Hei is reluctant to part with Shen Shi. He seems to be very interested in this golden tire stone, but he can't help it. Shen Shi walks too fast, and he has tried it secretly before, so in the end, this greedy little black pig still has no choice but to keep up with Shen Shi and go all the way.
After walking for a while, Shen Shi and Xiao Hei walked back to the intersection of the three branches of the road. This time, Shen Shi went straight to the dark passage, but then he had a new discovery. The dark passage seemed not the same as the bright road. There were no floor tiles and no patterns. There were gravel and soil everywhere. The road was full of dust It also restored the uneven situation, which was somewhat similar to the road Shen Shi took when he came.
Shen Shi looks at the road carefully. After a moment, he suddenly jumps to find that at the beginning of the passage, it looks like a hole. It's obvious that a big hole has been made in the stone wall of the originally complete underground passage, that is, the passage leading to the stone gate, It's a branch road.
