Chapter 768 Fengdu City

"Where?" Wang Xinran asked.

"This place is probably the legendary ghost town." Wu Zhongyuan said.

"What ghost city?" Wang Xinran was puzzled.

"Fengdu, have you never heard of the ghost city Fengdu?" Wu Zhongyuan said, "You work in the 18th branch, but you don't even know about the ghost city Fengdu?"

Wang Xinran curled his lips with contempt, "I am an officer from the 18th Branch, and I am not a Taoist priest who subdued demons and captured ghosts."

As the two of them spoke, a sudden burst of strange and strange smile came from below.

The incident suddenly happened, and both of them felt a terrifying heart. The strange strange laughter had not stopped yet, and more strange laughters appeared. In a blink of an eye, the entire abandoned city was filled with such a gloomy and weird laughter.

"It's okay, it's an owl." Wu Zhongyuan patted Wang Xinran's shoulder.

Wang Xinran also guessed it was an owl, but in the middle of the night, he suddenly heard such a gloomy and strange laughter, and it was a lot of strange laughter. No one would be afraid of it.

People who are scared will feel angry when they come back to their senses, and Wang Xinran is no exception. She came out and brought a rifle. She saw strange laughter and continued, so she threw her shoulders and removed the rifle, pulled the bolt and loaded it, opened the security and swept it down, "What's the ghost's name!"

The sudden gunfire alarmed the owls lying dormant in the ruins, and a large number of owls flew up from all over the city.

These owls are different from common owls. Common owls are yellow and gray, while these owls are all black and white. After flying, they do not go far away. They just stay and hover over the ruins of the city, densely packed and numerous.

"What the hell?" Wang Xinran waved his rifle and smashed a owl that was flying closer by mistake.

"You are really right, this is a ghost place." Wu Zhongyuan spoke at the same time, and a huge fire ball condensed from the air. Instead, he used spiritual energy to activate the support, making it shine brightly. The dazzling light shone instantly as bright as daytime.

These owls are afraid of light. When the fire appears, they scream in Feiyuan.

"Let's go and go down and take a look." Wu Zhongyuan took Wang Xinran to the ground.

The ground was full of thorns and shrubs, and there was almost no place to settle down. However, before the two of them landed, the thorns and vines below began to disappear, gradually revealing the soil and rocks below.

Wang Xinran knew that this was done by Wu Zhongyuan, but she was still shocked. After landing, she looked around and said, "How did you do it?"

"Everything in the world is born from breath. The higher the spiritual energy cultivation, the stronger the ability to control breath." Wu Zhongyuan said casually. He is now using one mind and two things. While releasing spiritual energy to replenish spiritual energy for the fireball hanging in the air, the energy is emitted from the liver meridian and decomposes the surrounding thorn vines.

Fear mainly comes from the unknown. Darkness will aggravate the unknown, so many people are afraid of the darkness. In addition, this area is covered with thorns and grass, making people wonder what is hiding below, which will aggravate the fear. When the surroundings are bright as daytime and the thorny vines are gone, and a thorough understanding of the surrounding situation will naturally decrease.

"The owls just now were much bigger than ordinary owls." Wang Xinran held a gun in his hand and looked around.

Wu Zhongyuan said casually, "There is a problem with the angle you observe. You should not pay attention to their size, but to their fur colors, black and white owls you have seen before?"

Wang Xinran shook her head, "No."

"Not only you have never seen it, I have never seen it," said Wu Zhongyuan. "You must have heard of the legend of the owl calling the soul. In Taoism, owls are night owls, messengers of the underworld, and they are responsible for the underworld."

"These owls are related to black and white impermanence?" Wang Xinran speculated.

Wu Zhongyuan shook his head, "I don't know very well. It may be the original form of the black and white impermanence figure in later generations, or the subordinate of the black and white impermanence. This cannot be confirmed. However, it is very strange that they are trapped in this area. Did you find that there is no rat or snake around here, and there are very few small insects. Since there is no food, why do they gather here?"

When Wu Zhongyuan spoke, the thorns and vines around him were disappearing rapidly, and more and more grounds were revealed. Without the covering, it was clearer that it was a big city. The stones that built the city were all very large, and flat stone slabs could be clearly seen on some of the ground without soil. However, due to the age of the age, the city had been severely weathered, and most of the buildings in the city had collapsed.

"How long can you keep the big fireball in the sky forever?" Wang Xinran looked up.

"At least three months." Wu Zhongyuan smiled.

After hearing what Wu Zhongyuan said, Wang Xinran felt relieved. Wu Zhongyuan was her husband, and she didn't need to pretend to be fearless in front of Wu Zhongyuan. "What's really wrong in this place. I'm so panicked."

"It's normal. The human body has the instinct to seek good fortune and avoid bad luck. After you become Taixuan, you have a sharper sense than before, and you have a stronger perception of bad aura. The yin energy here is very heavy, so you feel depressed." Wu Zhongyuan said.

Wang Xinran nodded and asked, "Is this really the legendary Fengdu City?"

"It should be," said Wu Zhongyuan, "If I had never guessed it wrong, this place is probably the location of the capital before the ghost tribe was sealed, similar to the human tribe's Youxiong City."

At this time, all the thorns and vines within a hundred feet of the two had disappeared, and Wu Zhongyuan did not continue to extend outward and walked towards a huge stone pillar not far away.

The stone pillars are black. After thousands of years of wind and sun exposure, the top of the stone pillars has been weathered and deformed. The stone pillars should have been engraved with figures, but now they are completely invisible.

"Hey, what do you think it looks like?" Wu Zhongyuan smiled at the stone pillar, "Nature is really a magical skill."

Wang Xinran glanced at Wu Zhongyuan, "Where is this? Why do you still have these thoughts?"

"It doesn't matter where this place is, what kind of talent I am." Wu Zhongyuan turned toward the center of the city, "Let's go and do the important things."

"Do you know the specific location of that ancient tomb?" Wang Xinran has an occupational disease. Before following Wu Zhongyuan, he would always look around with a gun.

Wu Zhongyuan nodded, "Yes, the debiter notes are correct. The place is in the center of the city, but it should not be an ancient tomb, but a secret room."

"How do you know?" Wang Xinran asked.

"I guess," said Wu Zhongyuan, "that place may be where Zisu is in seclusion, or where he hides his beautiful concubines in the golden house. No matter what it is, it cannot be an ancient tomb, because the ghost prince Su is a Shangyuan cultivation, and has the incarnation of the Nascent Soul, and is immortal. He does not need a tomb, nor does he need to prepare a tomb for himself."

"It makes sense," Wang Xinran nodded and suddenly shook his head, "but it's not right. The people from Leprosy Ridge took away a few funeral objects from there."

"The place in the basement is a funeral object?" Wu Zhongyuan asked with a smile.

Wang Xinran did not answer the conversation and turned around and reviewed again, "Why do I always feel like there is something behind me?"

"There is a big cave behind the statue of the owl," said Wu Zhongyuan. "The thick yin energy here is emitted from there."

Wang Xinran didn't like to ask questions, but still couldn't help but wonder, "What's in the cave?"

"I don't know very well," said Wu Zhongyuan, "first go to the underground Taoyuan to take a look, and then go to the cave."

The two of them are walking on the main road of the city. There are many human-shaped stone figurines around the main road. These human-shaped stone figurines are bent over and carrying weights. There is a semicircular depression behind them. It can be seen that the thing they carry should be a pot-like vessel, which is very likely a metal brazier for night lighting. The reason why the brazier is not seen is that metal-shaped utensils cannot be preserved in an open air environment for more than 5,000 years.

When Wu Zhongyuan stopped to look at the stone figurines, Wang Xinran was keeping a gun and watching.

Seeing how nervous she was, Wu Zhongyuan said casually, "It's okay. Although there is a lot of yin energy here and a large number of owls, there will be no danger here. If there is really danger, those people in Leprosy Ridge will not escape unscathed."

After hearing Wu Zhongyuan's words, Wang Xinran relaxed a little, "Those tomb robbers are powerful enough to find this place."

"They rely on this to make a living, and they have special skills," said Wu Zhongyuan. "In addition, tomb robbers do not look for any tomb in a targeted manner. They all know geomanticism and know where Feng Shui is good. my country's theory of geomanticism has been established for a long time. The standards for judging the quality of Feng Shui have not changed. Five thousand years ago was good Feng Shui, and five thousand years later, it was still good Feng Shui. Tomb robbers will try it as long as they find a place with good Feng Shui. In millions of years, countless people died. Zhang San was not buried here, and Li Si might also be buried here, so they basically did not fail."

Wang Xinran suddenly realized and asked, "How could you understand these?"

Wu Zhongyuan left the stone figurines and continued to walk towards the center of the city. "You are not focused in class and always play games. The teachers I mentioned have all the lectures in class."

"Not in the book." Wang Xinran said.

"These things are suspected of feudal superstition and cannot appear in the textbook openly, but the teacher will tell you," said Wu Zhongyuan. "If we learn archaeology do not understand these, how can we grab cultural relics from tomb robbers? However, the principles of cultural relics protection in our country are very conservative. Unless it is a rescue excavation, they will not open the ancient tombs on their own initiative. This is very passive. We are worried that we will not be able to properly keep the cultural relics buried with them after proactive excavation, but tomb robbers do not care about this set and dig them when they find them. Therefore, archaeology basically wipes the butts of tomb robbers and picks up some of them to steal the remaining remaining soup."

Wang Xinran nodded, "Yes, legal education needs to be strengthened, and national quality needs to be improved."

"It's not entirely a matter of quality," Wu Zhongyuan shook his head and said, "After all, life is better. There is a saying in the archaeological world that is called 'Ancients and Troubled Times of Gold.' Only when life is better can people have the heart to collect it. If it's a chaotic world where people are in danger and people prefer gold, that's hard currency."

While they were talking, they came to the central area of ​​the city. This was the place where the main roads in the city gathered. There was a circular pool. The pool was made of white jade, with a diameter of about nine meters, divided into two, and was in the shape of Yin and Yang Tai Chi. The pool was not deep, and the water storage level was not more than one meter. However, at this time the pool had dried up, leaving only jade for decoration at the bottom of the pool.

At this time, people have already started to use jade, but jade cannot be exchanged, but it is more used for ritual instruments. If it is placed in modern times, these colorful jades alone will be priceless.

These jades are evenly distributed at the bottom of the pool. Wu Zhongyuan waved his right hand and moved a piece of jade on his right side. He turned his hand back and lifted two of the stone slabs, and a dark thief hole was revealed...
