Chapter 181: Immortal Ghost Picture

Since the Jiulong turntable, the tracking clues have been lost on the road. As Ding Er said before, the blood demon has an extremely high IQ. When it fled, it lifted Ding Yi's body outside the bridge, and blood dripped into the abyss under the bridge, leaving no trace of blood on the bridge, causing our pursuit to fall into a deadlock.

However, for those who are well-equipped, this trick of carving and insects still doesn't work much. I hurriedly threw down a few cold fireworks. With the strong light, I could see two lines of blood stretching out into the distance under the bridge. This should be the traces left by the blood flowing out of Ding Yi and Hulutou, but the two lines of blood are obviously different. One line stretches forward in a single straight line, while the other line seems to be like two lines of blood twisted into a stream, sometimes separated and sometimes intertwined, completely unlike the traces dripping from a person's blood.

Because we are too far from the bottom of the pit, we cannot tell the newness of these two blood marks, but fortunately, the blood lines are only located below the two stone bridges. As long as we can make a correct judgment, we can successfully find the blood demon's place.

Time is still too late. According to Ding Er's description, the awakening process of each blood demon takes time. Even if it is fed with blood, they will not wake up immediately. If they can find another blood demon in a short time, they can eliminate the remaining blood demons that have not yet awakened, and the remaining work will be much easier.

The bearded man looked at the two blood lines and pondered for a moment, then pointed to the two blood stains that were twisted together and said, "Maybe it was this one. It left a blood mark for the first time when it entered the tomb. When it just entered the tomb again, it left a second blood mark. The two blood marks overlapped together, so it formed such a strange shape. It seemed that it had returned to the room full of blood demon corpses. I think we should go in that direction."

I thought silently for a while, and then said my opinion. I think the two intertwined blood marks should be formed by the blood of the gourd head. Don't forget that the corpse of the gourd head was torn in two halves, and the two blood demons took the half toward the tomb, and two blood marks would naturally form. On the other side, there was only one blood mark, and Ding Yi's corpse was not separated. If I guessed correctly, the single line of blood was the place where the blood demon had just passed.

After listening to me, everyone felt that the words were reasonable, so they stopped hesitating, immediately identified the direction, and hurriedly stepped onto the stone bridge above the bloodline.

While walking, I found that the bandage wrapped around my stomach had already oozed a lot of blood, which may be caused by excessive movements when fighting with the blood demon just now. Ji Wenhui and the bearded man were going to let me stop and bandage them again, but I knew that the situation in front of me was urgent. If I delayed this way, it would lead to great consequences, and then I would really become an eternal sinner. Therefore, I lied that it was okay, it was just a minor injury, and I would arrange it myself when I needed bandage.

Looking at the blood on the bandage, my eyes slowly moved up and saw the protective teeth on my neck still glowing. I suddenly thought of something, and whispered to the other people as I walked: "Why do I think something is wrong? Logically speaking, after this amulet is bloody, it should have some response to the turtle stone, and it can even be used as a compass for looking for the turtle stone. The Jiulong turntable is located in the center of the entire hall, and all the nine stone bridges are initiated from there, and the distance is equal, and the length of each stone bridge is not too long. But why did this amulet never react? Do you remember that when the big bearded man was in the snake cave, this thing started to react very far from the turtle stone? Could it be that there is no turtle stone in the entire hall?"

The bearded man nodded and replied, "I'm guessing this, but I haven't figured out why. Perhaps there is another hidden place in the Nightmare Stone, and it is very likely that it will not be in this ghost town at all."

Ji Wenhui had the opposite opinion. She believed that the location of the Nightmare Stone must be inseparable from the scope of this city. Before we arrived at the ***, we had already done a lot of research work, whether it was the records of Qi Lan's suicide note or the map in "Soul-Suppressing the Soul", plus Liu Qianhu's narrative, all signs indicate that the gathering place of the Nightmare Stone should be in this devil's city. And judging from Gao Lin's mysterious motive, it is probably also related to Nightmare The stone cannot be separated from it. Perhaps she learned from another channel that the secret of the Nightmare Stone in this ancient city, so she arrived here one step ahead of us. Think back, as soon as we arrived at the city, our group was disturbed by the illusion of the Nightmare Stone. Except for the big beard, everyone was trapped in a demonic obstacle. This can even explain the problem. Apart from the Nightmare Stone, there are other things that can make us feel so familiar and crazy?

Her analysis was indeed reasonable, and Dabei and I naturally thought of this section. But the abnormality of the amulet is a big doubt, which always makes me feel that there is an amazing truth behind the matter. However, guessing alone is useless, and we must find clues to judge the truth. The current plan is only one step away. Fortunately, there are only two left at the end of the nine stone bridges. We don’t know what it is. After all, everything will be revealed.

After walking quickly to the bridgehead, the group found that this place was a place we had never reached before. In other words, this was one of the two stone bridges we urgently needed to explore.

It was an extremely special stone door, with the door holes in an arch shape, and the two stone doors opened horizontally from left to right. At this time, the stone door had already opened a gap, and its width could allow two people to pass side by side.

The two stone doors retracted a little to the sides. Judging from the new friction marks on the ground, I immediately determined that this was the stone door opened by the mechanism that Ji Saner accidentally triggered not long ago. At that time, he pulled the wood-turned stone in the giant coffin, and then a wave of friction from the rocks came from the hall. The sound we sounded very familiar with was the sound of a stone door slowly opening. I had never found the specific location of the stone door. It was really a place where I searched for it. This door happened to appear here by chance.

The reason why this stone door is special is that it is an ancient painting drawn on the door. In the middle of the two doors, half a portrait is drawn respectively. Due to the separation of the stone doors, the portrait is divided into two, with only half of the body left on each side.

But this does not affect our viewing of the specific content of the mural. On the left is an immortal sitting cross-legged, with his feet facing the sky, his hands turning into orchids and fingers flat on his knees. The man has no clothes on his body, sitting naked on a cloud of auspicious clouds, his eyes closed and his eyebrows hung, his face smiled, and colorful glows shining on his head.

On the stone door on the right was a devil sitting cross-legged. His body and posture were exactly the same as the immortal on the other side, except that the devil's body was charred and rotten, almost to the point of skin and bones. His appearance was extremely ferocious, with the ghost's eyes wide open, his eyes were red, his fangs were sharp, and his expression was ferocious. A ball of black air covered his head, increasing his evilness a little.

These two paintings actually paint a person. If the two stone doors are together, a bizarre portrait of a half-immortal and half-ghost will be formed. The image of the devil is quite similar to the blood demon, but what does the image of the immortal mean? What does this weird portrait mean?

But at this moment, it is not the time to study portraits, and finding the blood demon with a face-changing face is the main topic. We stopped in front of the door and took a few glances, then walked into the door and walked into the passage behind the door.

This space is quite similar to the other side of the Blood Pool. The four walls of the passage and the road surface have not been deliberately modified. They are completely primitive stone walls, with uneven road surfaces and rugged rocks on the walls.

However, completely different from the Blood Pool Cave, the rocks on the other side are all blue-black, while the stones on this side are slightly red, and they look dark red and red, which is very contrasting with all the colors in the hall.

Ji Wenhui rubbed the wall beside her with her hands, put it in front of her nose and sniffed it a few times, then said in a low voice: "It is a sedimentary rock, which is different from the stone nearby. Judging from the textures on the surface of the stone, this place does not seem to have been excavated, but very much like it is formed naturally."

I asked her what sedimentary rock is, and she explained that sedimentary rock, also known as hydrogenetic rock, is separated from debris from organisms such as glaciers, rivers, winds, oceans and plants, and consolidated after millions of years of high temperature and pressure. On the surface of the earth, 70% of the rocks are sedimentary rocks, but when it comes to the underground part, the share of sedimentary rocks only accounts for 5%.

Then she pointed to the front and said slowly: "Look at the shape of this place, does it look like a sink for an underground river? Tens of thousands of years later, the river water dried up, and this underground passage composed of sedimentary rocks gradually formed."

I still didn't understand her specific intention of explaining this matter, so I asked, "Did you find any problem?"

She thought for a moment, then nodded and said, "This city and this hall have only been built for about two thousand years, but this passage has been over ten thousand years. I always feel that it seems that this city was built because of this passage. In other words, whether it is Kowloon Hall or the City of Devils, they are all built based on the location of this passage, and not the city that was first established or the cave that was dug later."

After hearing what she said, I really think something is strange. If her judgment is correct, it proves that this place is an extremely important place, and its importance is even far beyond that of King Jiulong. But what is above King Jiulong? Is it really like the one drawn in the immortal ghost picture, isn’t there a half-immortal and half-ghost god in this cave?

While thinking, the bearded man walking in front suddenly stopped, but he didn't say a word or make any move to defend the enemy. He just stood still, staring blankly in front of him, as if he was stupid.

We hurriedly walked over and looked forward according to his gaze. After a glance, the prince and I shouted loudly in an agreement: "It's the turtle stone!"
