Chapter 124 Xu Feng: Wu Sanxing, this old fox, kill him at the critical moment
“Really…really…really dead?!”
Xu Feng couldn't believe his eyes.
Wu Sansheng and the others were stunned for a long time, and then burst into cheers.
"Xu Feng, you are so awesome!"
"Oh my God, I finally killed this guy!"
Xu Feng was also stunned!
He didn't expect that the power of the Demon Lord's Wrath would be so great. It was said that the lethality was doubled, but there was no specific value, such as how many times it was doubled.
So he just used all his strength in that attack.
But I didn't expect it to be so powerful!
This made him realize the power of the Demonic Sword again!
"The second skill, Demon Lord's Wrath, is so awesome!"
"Then the third skill, Demon Lord's Apparition, can summon the Demon Lord to appear. Isn't that awesome?!"
Just looking at the soul gem that disappeared from the hilt, he began to feel pain again.
Ghosts are hard to come by.
He went to so many tombs and finally collected three soul gems.
Once used.
If I want to get it all together next time, it will probably be a long time.
of course.
It’s not that Xu Feng is reluctant to use it.
The main thing is that after the soul gem is consumed, the Ghost Sword will be downgraded to a magic weapon and turned back into a garbage sword that can't even penetrate the skin of an ordinary zombie.
He'd had enough of that rubbish knife.
He glanced at the soul gems on the hilt, one was dim, but the other two were shining brightly.
"Be careful next!"
"You can only use the Demon Lord's Wrath once more at most!"
Xu Feng secretly warned himself in his heart.
Zhang Qiling was also amazed by Xu Feng's sword.
He walked to the bloody corpse and poked it with the black unicorn. The originally stiff corpse immediately fell to the ground, splashing dust all over the ground.
He looked at Xu Feng, his eyes flashing with strange colors: "Your swordsmanship is good!"
Xu Feng pretended to be surprised: "You actually know how to praise others? Not bad, not bad. Other people's praise is just flattery, but your praise is absolutely genuine!"
Zhang Qiling was startled, then turned around with a strange expression.
Xu Feng quickly chased after him: "Hey, don't get me wrong, I'm not mocking you, I'm serious!"
"Dumb, do you know what this is called?"
"You who don't speak, silence is golden."
"You who took the initiative to speak up are definitely speaking the truth!"
The two of them walked one in front and one behind towards the passage behind the coffin.
Wu Sanxing and the other two were left behind, looking at each other in shock.
"Hey. He's leaving now?!"
Wu Sansheng patted the confused Wu Xie and said, "You knew he was leaving, but you didn't catch up!"
"If you had half the ability of Xu Feng, I would have taken you to the tomb long ago!"
As he said this, he quickly followed.
Pan Zi comforted Wu Xie: "Little Third Master, don't think too much. Third Master is just disappointed."
Wu Xie looked at him speechlessly: Are you polite?
Behind the coffin is a downward sloping passage.
The passage shrouded in darkness and sloping downward was very long. The light from the eternal lamp in the tomb they left behind could not penetrate very deep into the passage.
The five people walked forward cautiously.
It wasn't long before the rapidly rising darkness enveloped them.
while walking.
Xu Feng suddenly stopped.
As soon as he stopped, the whole team naturally stopped immediately.
Before Wu Sanxing could speak, the curious Wu Xie asked, "Xu Feng, why don't you leave?"
Xu Feng pointed to the wall and said, "Look!"
Everyone turned their heads to look at the wall and found some words, murals and patterns on the walls on both sides.
“Let’s go!”
Wu Xie exclaimed in surprise.
He likes studying things like text and patterns the most, as he feels the pleasure of solving a puzzle.
Moreover, in general underground palaces, these mural patterns are the main source of information about the owner.
“And there are words!”
Xu Feng said: "It's the same as the characters in the tomb just now, all of them are bronze characters."
"Bronze inscriptions were commonly used in the Western Zhou Dynasty!"
He shone a flashlight on the words and read softly: "Take the five kings to the east, and the king will move his troops to Taiyuan..."
After reading a difficult passage, he breathed a sigh of relief: "This passage describes the deeds of King Mu of Zhou in conquering the Quanrong in the west. He moved the surrendered leaders to Taiyuan to serve as the northwest barrier of the Western Zhou Dynasty."
He pointed to a mural next to it.
"Look, this is the painting of King Mu of Zhou's eight horses in parade."
Then he continued to talk about it picture by picture. "King Mu of Zhou traveled westward, leading the six armies of the King of Zhou, riding on the emperor's carriage that symbolized the dignity of the king, and set out from the capital of Zhou, crossing the Yellow River to the north, crossing the Taihang Mountains, passing through the southern grasslands of the desert, and then crossing the Qilian Mountains, and through the Silk Road, arriving at the distant country of the "Queen Mother of the West."
"During this long journey, King Mu of Zhou frequently exchanged materials with the countries along the way. Most of the time, the local natives offered cattle and sheep as tributes, and King Mu of Zhou rewarded them with jewelry, gold, and cloth."
"You see, there are several phrases here such as 'viewing on the spring mountain' and 'traveling on the literary mountain', which shows that political activities are only an accessory to King Mu's travels, and sightseeing is the main thing."
Then Xu Feng pointed to another inscription and translated it: "On the auspicious day of Jiazi, the emperor was a guest of the Queen Mother of the West. He held the white jade and black jade to meet the Queen Mother of the West. He offered a hundred pieces of brocade, three hundred pieces of brocade. The Queen Mother of the West bowed again and accepted it."
"The general meaning is that King Mu of Zhou visited the Queen Mother of the West and presented her with gifts, which she gladly accepted."
"On Yichou, the emperor toasted the Queen Mother of the West on Yaochi Lake."
"It means that King Mu of Zhou and Queen Mother of the West will drink together in Yaochi on another day."
"And there's more..."
When Wu Xie heard this, he couldn't help but interrupt Xu Feng: "Is this all true?!"
"Let's not talk about the Queen Mother of the West. She might be the monarch of an ancient country in the Western Regions."
"But Yaochi and Yanshan only exist in myths and legends."
Xu Feng shook his head: "The history is too long ago, who knows whether it is true or not."
"During the reign of Emperor Wu of the Western Jin Dynasty, a tomb robber found two books in the tomb of King Xiang of Wei during the Warring States Period. One was the Biography of Emperor Mu and the other was the Bamboo Annals."
"The Travels of Emperor Mu also records King Mu's journey to the west. Although the place names mentioned have changed over time and are difficult to verify, it is certain that King Mu and his entourage at least reached Central Asia!"
"If we combine it with the contents recorded on the murals in front of us and verify each other, maybe they are all true."
"Of course, art comes from life. Maybe myths and legends were actually adapted by people at the time based on real situations. Later, they were passed down and gradually became mythologized."
"For example, the Queen Mother of the West is also recorded in the Classic of Mountains and Seas."
"If you do not regard Yaochi and Yanshan as fictional, but as places that really existed at the time, then this episode about King Mu of Zhou and the Queen Mother of the West does not actually record any magical events, but rather seems like a normal record of the meeting and interaction between the monarchs of two countries!"
Wu Sanxing also echoed, "That's right. In fact, many myths and legends are just rumors spread by the ancients, just like the keyboard warriors on the Internet like to make up stories nowadays. Do you think the ancients would not lie?!"
"But this King Mu of Zhou is quite powerful."
"If the descriptions on this mural are true, King Mu of Zhou was undoubtedly one of the greatest travelers in ancient times."
See Wu Sanxing talking about the mural.
Xu Feng glanced at Zhang Qiling secretly.
He had previously suggested that this tomb was most likely the tomb of King Mu of Zhou.
Zhang Qiling's expression was a little strange at that time.
It is likely that some memories were recalled, but it is unclear how much.
He now deliberately told the story of King Mu of Zhou meeting the Queen Mother of the West. He wanted to see if Zhang Qiling would remember anything.
Only this time, there was no expression on Zhang Qiling's face.
I don’t know if I didn’t remember it.
Or he covered it up.
Then he looked at Wu Sanxing, this old fox. Seeing how he was talking, Xu Feng was not sure how much he knew about the Seven Star Lu Palace.
"Wu Sanxing is an old fox. Even if you ask him to tell you the truth, he may not tell you the truth."
"Forget it, let's just wait and see!"
"If he insists on seeking death, I can just form an alliance with Zhang Qiling and leave them alone."
At this moment, a snapping sound suddenly came from the darkness.
It sounded like some mechanism being pressed.
Xu Feng turned his head and saw Wu Xie's palm pressed on the wall, where there was a bulge that was pressed inward by him.
Wu Xie looked at everyone stiffly and gave a dry laugh: "I didn't mean it."
then.
There were loud crackling sounds coming from the walls on both sides.
It sounds like gears turning or a chain moving.
Suddenly.
Xu Feng saw many small holes suddenly appear on the walls on both sides.
His expression suddenly changed: "Fuck! Everyone be careful!"
Xu Feng glanced at the density of the small holes on the wall and the range in which they appeared.
My scalp tingled instantly!
It's too late to say, then soon!
He kicked Wu Xie and sent him flying more than ten meters away.
Then one leaped up.
His hands and feet were on either side of the passage, with his back pressed against the ceiling.
Xu Feng kicked Wu Xie away.
Wu Sanxing was stunned.
But he quickly came to his senses, and without even questioning Xu Feng, he simply followed Xu Feng and jumped onto the top of the passage to hold on.
Zhang Qiling and Pan Zi followed closely behind.
Just when Pan Zi had just managed to hold on.
Countless slender bronze spears suddenly protruded from the small holes on both sides.
In an instant, the bottom is intertwined tightly.
Stop talking about people.
Even a small mouse would be riddled with holes under such intensive attacks.
A spear almost grazed Wu Sanxing's belly.
His clothes were torn.
Wu Sanxing was so scared that he broke out in a cold sweat.
