In the backyard of the Song Family, Luoqiu asked Momo to carry Zhan Er because it wasn't a good idea to let him lie down like this.
Additionally, they had to change their location due to some noises not far away.
"Don't worry, they're just the bodyguards of the owner." Luoqiu looked at Momo, "They're probably just patrolling. Of course, because of your existence, there are some rumors about strange forces and gods in this village. "
"Senior, if you don't mind, please follow me to the bottom of the ancient well." Momo forced a smile, "I've been recuperating down there these days. And there's another world down there. "
Luo Qiu nodded. He was more concerned about the so-called 'another world' under the ancient well that Momo mentioned.
Momo immediately carried Zhan Er on his back and jumped into the ancient well after getting the permission of the 'senior'.
In the blink of an eye, Momo had reached the bottom of the ancient well — This place had dried up, even the soil was dry and hard. Momo raised his head and looked up. When he was about to shout, he turned around abruptly.
He saw the 'senior' was standing at the bottom of the ancient well with him.
When did it happen? He didn't even hear any noise when he fell down. It was like moving in a flash … Momo had fought with this' senior 'in Lui Village. At that time, he knew that this' senior 'had unfathomable power. But now, it seemed that he had underestimated him.
He didn't know how this mysterious' senior 'was compared with the bloodline inheritors of the four heavenly spirits of the Monster Association and the representatives of the Taoist Association …
"Is this the other world you mentioned?" Luoqiu looked at the bottom of the ancient well.
He found that there was actually another passageway here. The passageway was not simply a passageway for underground water to flow.
Momo nodded and said seriously, "Yes, there's a huge space hidden under the ancient well. I see that you have quite a few stone rooms, and there are even hidden mechanisms in them … "
"Have you explored it?" Luoqiu asked indifferently.
Momo shook his head, "No. First, I'm injured, so I can't take the risk. Secondly, since this place has set up such a mechanism, it must be to prevent outsiders from barging in … No matter what, I am considered to have come uninvited. If I were to barge in, it would naturally be bad. "
Luoqiu smiled at Momo. He didn't expect this blond Taoist master to be such a rule-abiding person.
Maybe he was the kind who would stop at the red light even on a deserted road in the middle of the night.
"Let's go in and have a look." Luoqiu waved his hand, a ball of light came out of his palm, illuminating the bottom of the ancient well and making the view here clearer.
Momo said, "Keep walking and you'll reach a spacious place. It should be like a living room. I've been hiding inside all this time, trying to see if I can get rid of the poison in my body. "
Luo Qiu said, "I heard that a family died in the Wang Family Ditch next door. Then someone saw the ghost of this family in the middle of the night. Later, a Taoist priest was invited to cast a spell and drove the evil ghost away, but it came here instead. What's going on? "
Momo's face darkened, saying bitterly, "Senior, you're talking about Wang Dashun's family … In fact, I'm the one who harmed them."
Luoqiu stopped.
Momo sighed, "Zhan 'er has been in a coma since he got the edict. This time, the Taoist Association in Penglai Daha fought even more crazily, and there were forces from the monster world spying on them … That day, I had no choice but to jump off the cliff. Later on, he was saved by a mysterious woman surnamed Qin, who saved his life. Later, I came to Wang Dashun's family and was rescued by them. I wanted to leave after I got better … But I didn't expect that I was found by a few monster Taoists. I couldn't defeat them, so they cast a spell and swallowed the souls of Wang Dashun's family … Later, I ran away and came to Song Village. "
"A mysterious woman surnamed Qin?" Luoqiu gaped.
Momo nodded, "Hmm, this Miss Qin is quiet but she seems to be otherworldly. I can't guess her background … Senior, do you know something?"
"Nothing." Luoqiu shook his head, "You've been hiding in the well, how did Zhan 'er wake up?"
Momo said, "The poison in my body broke out very badly recently, and Zhan 'er also woke up these days. But as you saw, Zhan 'er became like this after he woke up. Even so, Zhan 'er didn't go far, as if to protect me. Later, those monster Taoists chased here, but they were killed by Zhan 'er … I also moved their bodies here. Alas … I've avenged Wang Dashun's family. "
Luo Qiu nodded. At this moment, he had walked to the living room that Momo had mentioned. He saw three corpses in the corner.
It was cold and gloomy in the well, so the bodies didn't rot so quickly.
Luoqiu looked at the structure of the stone room under the well, asking, "What's your plan now? You've recovered from the poison, and you've recovered your ability to move. Zhan 'er will wake up after he wakes up, so I suggest you'd better consider the next situation. "
Momo muttered, "To tell you the truth, according to the situation of the competition in the Penglai Meeting, if I take Zhan Er with me, I'm afraid it'll cause another bloody storm … So I plan to take Zhan Er away as soon as possible and send him back to his master Yang Taizi. As for me … "
He shook his head, sighing, "Maybe I'll go back to Dragon Tiger Mountain first, and tell my master Changhe about this. As for what I'll encounter in the future … I can only plan for the future. Senior, what do you think? "
"It's none of my business." Luoqiu said, "You can decide by yourself … Besides, can you deal with these bodies?"
Momo was stupefied.
Luoqiu said indifferently, "Since you think it's against the rules to break into other people's place, is it against the rules to leave the bodies here casually?"
Momo had noticed that a group of people came to this empty mansion, and the sudden appearance of this senior — Since this' senior 'didn't come for the edict, did he know the owner of this mansion?
"It's my fault, please forgive me, senior." Momo hurriedly said, "I'll deal with these three bodies as soon as possible!"
"Go ahead." Luoqiu nodded, "I'll take a look inside."
Saying this, Luoqiu ignored Momo, walking straight to another corridor leading to the inside. Momo looked at the corpses in the corner, frowning and pinching a mudra.
Momo murmured while the spiritual power in his body surged rapidly. Suddenly, Momo uttered a 'chi' sound, and the corpses on the ground started to move slowly.
Of course, the corpses couldn't move by themselves, this was only the 'Five Ghosts Moving Technique'.
Seeing the three corpses start to move, Momo glanced at Zhan 'er … He thought that since that senior was here and had helped Zhan' er to calm down, there should be no problem.
Momo subconsciously didn't think about whether this senior would covet the edict like the Daoist Association and the Monster Association. Because with that senior's means, it would be too easy for him to steal the edict if he wanted to.
He could just kill him and take Zhan Er away, why would he bother to remove the poison in his body?
"Hmm … Where should I move these corpses?"
This was the only question he was considering.
…
To Luoqiu's surprise, there was such a huge secret room under the ancient well of the Song Family.
The entrance of this secret room was obviously lower than the water level of the ancient well. If the ancient well hadn't been drained, this secret room might have remained unknown.
Just like what Momo said, this secret room was extremely huge, with many passages like a maze. There were many traps in the different passages … This reminded Luoqiu of the time when he explored Zhang Jiao's tomb on the prairie.
This … might actually be a huge tomb.
He had heard Old Master Song mention before that the ancestors of the Song Family came to this remote place to live in seclusion to avoid the chaos of war … But if it was just to live in seclusion, there was no need to deliberately build such a huge building under the mansion.
Thinking about this, a huge stone door suddenly blocked Luoqiu's way.
There were words carved on the stone door, it was a regular script.
— None of the Song Family members are allowed to enter unless they have nowhere else to go.
— Song Changgeng
"Song Changgeng." Luoqiu murmured his name, then closed his eyes. The door of his memory opened at this moment. He returned to the scene in the mourning hall of Old Master Song's humble home in South America. He remembered the name 'Song Changgeng' was among the many memorial tablets in the mourning hall.
Luoqiu kept silent for a while, then pressed his hand on the stone door, "Open."
The stone door didn't open normally; instead, it cracked from the center to the four corners, forming four equal triangles. Finally, it shrank into the left rear wall.
The craftsmanship was truly amazing — because the time of construction of this underground stone room was clearly hundreds of years ago, or even hundreds of years ago.
"Song Changgeng, Song Changgeng … Song Yingxing?" Luoqiu opened his mouth in amazement, "Is it him?"
Thinking back to the various exquisite mechanisms and traps he saw along the way, as well as what Old Master Song said about the Song Family having many powerful people, Luoqiu was somewhat certain.
Although he felt that it was inconceivable that one of the ancestors of the Song Family was the author of the book "Heaven's Creation", compared to the origin of the Song Family — the direct descendant of the Song Kingdom from a thousand years ago — it didn't seem like much.
This stone door was already the deepest part of this underground stone room. Behind it should be the end.
In front of him was another secret room, but it was octagonal in structure. In the center of this secret room, there was a huge stone coffin.
The stone coffin had dragons and phoenixes carved on it, and it had a majestic aura.
In the front corner of this octagonal secret room, there was a shrine. On the shrine, there was a memorial tablet enshrined, with the words "Valiant Emperor Wen Shende" written on it.
In front of the memorial tablet, there was a brocade box.
Luo Qiu walked around the sarcophagus in the center to the shrine. He saw that there was an old praying mat in front of the shrine. After thinking for a moment, he didn't kneel in front of the praying mat. Instead, he bowed in front of the shrine.
After that, Luoqiu opened the brocade box on the shrine. Inside was a handwritten letter.
The letter described the cause and effect of the ancestors of the Song Family coming to this place. Back then, the Song Family didn't live in seclusion to avoid the chaos of war. Instead, they lived in seclusion to avoid the pursuit of those in power.
Because the Song Family was the descendant of the "Valiant Emperor Wen Shende", to those in power, they were the remnants of the previous dynasty and had to be eliminated.
Later on, the Song Family who lived in seclusion here would send their descendants out every once in a while. First, it was to observe the changes of the times. Second, it was to train. Because of the long period of seclusion and peace, it was easy for the descendants of the Song Family to lose the ability to deal with danger.
The "Song Chang Geng" written on the stone door of this octagonal stone room was one of the descendants who went out.
And this huge underground building of the Song Family ancestral home was built by the Song Family generation after generation. There was even a living area, an abundant water source, and a place to store food. It was the last resort of the Song Family.
As for the ancestral wealth of the Song Family that was recorded in the letter, Luoqiu had no interest in it.
He had to think of a way to let Old Master Song discover this place … After all, he was the head of the Song Family.
Just as Luoqiu was about to put the brocade box back to its original position, he suddenly had a thought … There was a sign outside the door that said, "Those who are not desperate are not allowed to enter."
If it was a warning to the descendants of the Song Clan that this enormous underground stone room was their last resort, shouldn't it have been written at the entrance at the very beginning … Why did it have to be written on the stone door in the deepest part of the room?
Luoqiu moved his gaze to the stone coffin.
This time, he directly walked in front of the stone coffin, walked around it, and finally put his palm on the coffin lid.
With a gentle push of his palm, the coffin lid slowly moved away, and finally flew out horizontally, and then gently landed on the ground.
Luoqiu looked inside the stone coffin.
He saw a middle-aged man lying inside the stone coffin.
The man was wearing a Cloud Dragon Red Silk Robe and a Heavenly Crown on his head. His face was dignified. As for his hands, they were placed on his abdomen, and in his hand was a strange stone ruyi.
Luoqiu frowned, and directly took the jade ruyi from the middle-aged man's hand, and carefully looked at it.
What surprised Luoqiu was that this stone ruyi had a very familiar engraving on it — this was the engraving on the discount black card that the club gave to some customers. It represented the discount.
But just as Luoqiu was about to carefully look at it, the stone ruyi in his hand unexpectedly shattered little by little, and directly turned into powder from Luoqiu's hand, and fell to the ground … as if it had lost some of its original power.
