I Created the Myth of the Old Ruler

Chapter 570: 569. Curiosity

   Chapter 570 569. Curiosity

  This cave is not artificially carved, it is more like some kind of giant worm gnawing and drilling. There is moss at the entrance, but there is only a bare rock wall in the deeper position.

  The blond man Gordon is holding a torch forward, and the others behind him are holding firearms, flashlights, etc. to illuminate the surroundings.

"These are made by some kind of strange and magnificent creature, they are one of his family, trying to hollow out the whole mountain to free their masters, unfortunately, the seals of those old rulers are not in the physical sense. ."

   Gordon was talking, the brown-haired man John behind him, and Dai Yuanyang listened silently.

   "But these caves became clues for geological exploration. By analyzing the seismic waves emitted by the whole mountain, we were able to quickly obtain the relevant address composition and found a core."

   "Here, all the worm passages failed to reach. Perhaps it is a cognitive bias, or some kind of physical protection. In short, this should be the core of the seal."

   Hearing Gordon's words, Dai Yuanyang swallowed.

   He had a strong bad premonition.

   "Mr. Gordon."

   he said in English.

"I think it's best for us not to move forward. In the legend of Jiuliu, Jiangcheng Mountain contains great power and is the residence of immortals. Although I don't believe in those legends of gods and ghosts, my intuition tells me, If you come down and move on, there will be big problems.”

   "Do you want to make yourself stronger? Want to gain more wealth, money, power?"

   Gordon asked.

"Can"

  Dai Yuanyang hesitated. .

   "The reason why human beings can become the master of the earth and the leader of all things is because of curiosity."

"If the spirit of exploration is lost, then human beings will be bound to the earth forever, unable to reach the deep sea and sky. Similarly, if we stop the study of those gods because of fear of their power, then we will only be with the past. People are just as foolish and superstitious."

   Gordon's torch went forward, illuminating the dark path.

  The light of the fire suddenly became much smaller. This is a phenomenon of lack of oxygen. In this kind of cave, the air must not circulate.

   At the moment when the flames went out, the cave suddenly became quiet.

   The brilliance of the flashlight shone ahead, and there seemed to be some kind of call sounding in the dark forbidden area.

  Dai Yuanyang's eyelids kept jumping. With a flashlight in his hand, he looked around the edge of the cave. The cave was silent, only the light breathing of the explorers.

   The brilliance of the flashlight shone, and Dai Yuanyang suddenly saw a human face.

   That face was numb and cold as if it was branded on the wall.

   His heart skipped a beat, and he stopped immediately.

   But soon, Dai Yuanyang discovered that it was just his own hallucination.

   After people keep looking at some bright things in a dark environment, projections will appear in their eyes, and this phenomenon of persistence of vision will cause the original things to still appear in the dark.

   And that face belonged to the person around Dai Yuanyang.

   As soon as he felt relieved, Dai Yuanyang found that Gordon in front of him had stopped.

"What's up?"

   he asked.

   "The rocks here are very empty, take a shovel and dig here."

  Gordon pointed to the side wall.

   His subordinates immediately took the shovel and started digging here. After about a quarter of an hour, with a click, the shovel fell in the air.

   This means that the wall has been dug through, and the other side of the wall is hollow.

   Could this be the seal?

  Dai Yuanyang illuminated the opposite side of the void with a flashlight. He saw that it was a dilapidated space, but there were traces of human hearts in it.

  The table and chairs have not decayed because they are isolated from the air. There is a coffin carved from stone in the center, and there are many corpses next to it.

   The coffin, which is like being covered and buried by stacks of bones, exudes some kind of weird texture, making people afraid to approach it.

"here is?"

   aside, the brown-haired John seemed to be aware, but didn't say it.

   "This is the sealed place."

  A frantic look flashed in Gordon's eyes, he showed an excited smile, took the flashlight, and immediately entered the cave.

  Kacha——

  Following the rope, Gordon landed next to the coffin covered in bones. He glanced at the skeletons under his feet. Almost all of them were human. It is conceivable that at least dozens of people died here.

The table and chairs beside    were empty. It seemed that something had been placed there, but it had already been taken away.

   Around this sarcophagus, countless words that Gordon did not know were inscribed, as if describing something.

  The cave has no exit and is blocked all around. I can't imagine how it was built.

   "Do you recognize the text on this?"

  Dai Yuanyang couldn't help asking.

   "No, I don't know, but it is obvious that in the mountains, there is such a coffin, Fang Geng's secret may be in it."

  Gordon's eyes were frantic, his cheeks tensed like a spasm.

   He put his hands on the sarcophagus and instinctively tried to push, but unfortunately, the weight of the stone was beyond human reach.

   "You, together."

   Gordon called some people and pushed the sarcophagus.

   Accompanied by a sound, the lid of the sarcophagus, which had been covered in dust for an unknown period of time, moved slowly, revealing the contents inside.

  Lu Kian walked into the cave and felt a strong pollution.

  These black mists penetrated Lu Jian's respiratory tract in an instant, infiltrated his lungs, flowed into his throat, stomach, and penetrated into his bone marrow from every pore.

   "This kind of pollution, if other Jiuzhuan people come in, I am afraid that they will fall into a state of loss of reason in an instant. Is this the way it is, or is there something wrong this time?"

   Lu Jun was slightly confused.

  According to what the Seventh Master said before, the people who became Xuanjun did not die, but at least they all came out. They died of illness after a few years of ordinary life, and they didn't seem to be crazy.

   But this pollution

  Lu Kian saw that the token in his hand was emitting the same pollution. The two resonated and intertwined with each other, but they seemed to be **** for tat.

   Pollution from different sources is incompatible and will only assimilate and cover each other.

   "Is this pollution from two groups of people?"

  Lu Kian had some guesses in his heart, and he continued to move forward.

   To ordinary people, the black mist that was no different from poisonous gas was just a stench that was a little more unpleasant to him.

   Probably not as bad as the stinky farts that some people secretly put on the subway.

   After walking for less than three minutes, Lu Kian arrived in a relatively empty cave.

   He saw that the pollution here has faded a lot, and only a little remains.

   He saw tables and chairs carved out of stone, where there were some books.

   Lu Bian glanced at them, these books were written in foreign languages, and he could vaguely tell that it was probably the language of Abandoned Capital.

   Behind the table, in the center of the cave, sits a person.
