Endless route

Chapter 137 44. The Taboo of Hanxian and the Attic in the Ice! 【2-in-1】

Zheng Yun walked to the burned off-road vehicle and looked around carefully, but found no clues. It was too old, and it was burned to the point where only one frame was left.

"What's going on with this car?"

"Spontaneous combustion or something?"

Hu Ruihua and others also noticed this and gathered around the snowmobiles, their tone even more puzzled.

"Is there a will-o'-the-wisp in this place? Was this car burned by a will-o'-the-wisp?" Huzi whispered in surprise.

They haven't seen the video.

I didn’t know the car was burned.

"It was burned artificially. In the video Song Wan found, five or six people burned it actively with torches and gasoline." Zheng Yun gave them a brief explanation.

This question is probably the top priority. It is the weirdest among those videos from 20 years ago. As long as you find out the cause of the burning car, you should be able to get part of the answer.

But this reason is really hard to find.

They were all burned to this state, how can I find them?

"Burning the car? That must be something in the car?" Huzi subconsciously made a guess.

"Or is there something that needs to be dispelled?" Hu Ruihua looked at Zheng Yun. He remembered the fire in Hades Pavilion. Zheng Yun said at that time that Yin soldiers were afraid of fire, and it might be the same here.

Zheng Yun shook his head.

He doesn't know either.

"This fire may be related to Hanxian Cave." Ji Daoleng walked up to Zheng Yun and whispered in his ear.

"How?" Zheng Yun asked immediately.

"Whether it's an immortal or a monster in the Hanxian Cave, it will eat any living creature. As long as it is targeted by the Hanxian, it will not be able to escape unless it is burnt to ashes in advance with fire." Ji Dao explained in a low voice.

"But what does this have to do with cars?" Zheng Yun couldn't understand. There was obviously something wrong with his words.

"Master Yun, at the end of the video, did the arsonist actively walk into the fire?" Ji Dao asked with a change of expression.

"No, it's not on the video..." Zheng Yun's hair stood up all over his body, Ji Dao's words were indeed a bit scary.

"Fuck." Huzi also exclaimed.

Ji Dao did not hide it from him. He listened to Ji Dao's words secretly and was so frightened that his face turned pale and his whole body trembled.

"Why, what is the purpose of actively throwing fire to drive away the cold immortals?" Zheng Yun frowned and asked Jidao.

"No, the cold immortal cannot be driven away with fire. If these people try to use fire to escape, they will have to burn themselves to ashes to escape the disaster." Ji Dao shook his head.

"What's the point?" Hu Ruihua was confused.

It's always a death, but is it comfortable to be burned to death? It's better to shoot yourself to death, and you'll be fine as soon as you close your eyes, and you don't care about the Hanxian and whether it eats or not.

"What Mr. Ji said is true. There are indeed some traces of bones here." Huzi suddenly interrupted and pointed at the vehicle.

Everyone gathered around him immediately.

Several people from the white-coated rescue team didn't understand what they were saying, but they followed them around.

Following the direction of Huzi's finger, there were indeed some objects that looked like bone remains inside the car that was frozen by the ice.

See this scene.

Everyone else looked at Ji Dao.

Zheng Yun also recalled the contents of Hanxian Cave, saying that a prince presented the map, and later the boat master went to find it. As a result, hundreds of people on the trip violated the taboo and were eaten by Hanxian until their bones were left.

"I really don't know anything else. This is what my master said. As long as a taboo is violated, only Ashes can escape Han Xian. Except for this..." Ji Dao patted his chest and quietly handed one to Zheng Yun. wink.

There is an extreme cold Gu in his pocket.

This stuff is not something Hanxian Cave will eat.

Having said this, Zheng Yun breathed a sigh of relief. They were not unprepared, at least they had a Gu insect.

"What's the taboo?" Hu Ruihua asked.

"There are three taboos: making loud noises to disturb the Han Immortal, hunting animals without offering sacrifices, and going backwards to feed in caves."

Zheng Yun answered the question.

The picture of the Immortal Palace of Immortality is written very clearly.

At present, they should not have committed these three taboos, because they should not have gone to Hanxian Cave, or even know where it is.

"What's the point of voluntarily throwing yourself into fire? It would be a good thing to commit suicide, why should you suffer?" Hu Ruihua couldn't help but ask.

Jidao shook his head. He was just guessing, and Zheng Yun had no idea at all. This part was not written on the map of the Immortal Mansion.

Everyone was silent for a moment.

Zheng Yun decided to keep looking forward. If the situation was not right, he would withdraw. There was no need to risk his life.

It can only be said that the things left by his adoptive father really didn't give any clues. Maybe the things were not for him to see at all, but his own itinerary plan.

The situation is becoming more and more confusing.

They knew about Diqiao and Hanxian Cave, but they didn't know whether the scientific expedition team in distress was clear about it. Let's say they knew it. If something happened to them, say they didn't know it. They could actually dig a hole directly and get into this place.

Even I and others had never heard of that city wall, but the archaeological team twenty years ago had a clear goal. Today's scientific expedition team can also follow certain clues to penetrate into it.

Where did they get the news?

It couldn't have been discovered accidentally.

"Let's go." Zheng Yun thought no more and let the ghost general get out of the gap, return to the narrow path and continue moving forward.

Everyone was thinking hard with questions. After hearing Zheng Yun's words, they packed up their things and followed the ghost general.

Standing on this steep road again, their emotions changed. They scanned the flashlight left and right more frequently, especially the city wall behind them. They looked at it over and over again, fearing that a cold fairy would suddenly appear there and want to eat people.

The traces on the ground remain.

The scientific expedition team is still further ahead...

The ghost general walked in front with a sword, but it showed no reaction from the beginning to the end. The sword was only drawn out on Zheng Yun's order.

Went forward some distance.

The sound of knocking on the ice wall was more obvious, as if it was not far ahead, but under the rift valley.

"There's something on the other side!"

Huzi suddenly spoke, pointing the flashlight at the middle of the right front of the rift valley, and there was something faintly visible in the flashlight light.

Everyone moved forward quickly.

Only when they got closer did they realize that this was actually an iron cable bridge, extending from the ice wall about a hundred meters below them and connecting to a rock wall cable bridge on the opposite side of the rift valley.

The rope bridge is even narrower, only 20 centimeters wide at most, but some distance ahead is a swing bridge nailed to the wall, falling in a zigzag pattern, all the way to the bottom of the valley.

There is a brick hole at the bottom of the valley.

Don't know where it leads.

"The scientific expedition team has passed." Hu Ruihua lowered his head and looked forward. The traces on the ground disappeared from here, and the scientific expedition team made ice nails and ropes to get down to the bridge from here.

"This place is so complicated and evil, I'm really dizzy." Huzi said in a low voice while holding on to the wall.

"You guys can stay, Jidao and I will go over and take a look." Zheng Yun glanced at Jidao's chest. They had a Gu insect. Hopefully, they could protect it and it would be better than the others.

Already come this far.

It’s impossible not to go and take a look.

They are also all talented people, whether they are ghost generals or Ji Dao, they all have special skills. They carry black jade pillows with them, so they still have the confidence to enter such secret places.

Below the brick hole is the glacier.

The worst case scenario is to drive away in a black jade pillow.

"I'll go too." Although Huzi was scared, he still stepped forward and showed no signs of timidity.

Otherwise, he wouldn't be able to get hit again and again.

"No, let's take a look and come back." Zheng Yun shook his head, untied the rope around his body, then picked up the oxygen mask and small oxygen bottle, and asked Ji Dao and others to put them on.

What they are most afraid of now is things like ghost general powder, Zhang Ergou's blood monkey, and the gas from the iceberg on the bow of the ship, which can kill people silently.

Oxygen masks are more thorough than gas masks. They do not interact with outside gases at all and can isolate most dangers.

Another source of confidence was given to them by Ji Dao's master. They knew clearly that Ji Dao's master came twenty years ago and took away the ice poisonous insects.

Since he can come.

Can you come by yourself and wait for others?

Although Ji Dao claimed that he was not good at academics, he was not lacking in knowledge and should not be much worse than his master.

Since Master Ji Dao can travel back and forth safely, Ji Dao should not be disappointed here and die together with him.

"How about I roar first?" Ji Dao also imitated Zheng Yun's movements and opened the complicated lock.

"You just roar the iceberg and it's over." Zheng Yun said softly. After Ji Dao and Gui Jiang put on their oxygen masks, they reached out to grab the rope, stepped back and slid down.

It didn't take long.

Zheng Yun stood on the chain bridge.

This bridge is obviously in the style of the Ming Dynasty Haiwei. It is so thick and strong that even a car can walk on it.

Then came the two ghost generals, who were obviously more skilled, stepping lightly on the single-strand iron rope.

Ji Dao also followed closely.

As soon as he came down, he whispered to Zheng Yun: "Master Xian, in fact, I can roughly tell that this is probably Haiwei who is locking the demon. They may have locked Han Xian here."

"Lock demon?"

Zheng Yun was slightly startled.

"The city wall has only a few functions, either to protect against external enemies or to protect against internal enemies. The city wall just now was obviously not used to protect against external enemies, so it can only be used to protect against internal enemies."

"I have seen the Demon Locking Tower in ancient books before. The monsters are locked in the tower and cannot leave. Maybe there is something ahead."

"There are not many Demon Locking Towers in the entire Supervisory Immortal Division that require city wall protection. Since we have never heard of it and there are no ancient books, then this place is probably abandoned, but for some reason, it appeared again. some things."

Ji Dao reasoned with a serious expression.

His words made sense, but the problem was also obvious. Zheng Yun thought for a moment and asked:

"Even if the cold fairy is extremely dangerous, it is in an inaccessible place in the ice and snow and will not harm the lives of ordinary people. Why does Haiwei have to come all the way to lock down the monster?"

"Master Immortal, locking demons is not necessarily for protection, but it may also be for controlling demons. Whether it is the Dragon Control Technique of the Heavenly Palace or the Submerged Demon Pregnancy Tower, it is actually locked first and then controlled."

Nobuyoshi continued to explain.

"Then why was this place abandoned and the so-called Han Immortal was not preserved?" Zheng Yun raised his head and looked at the brick hole opposite.

The brick cave is made of bricks and stones. It is no longer an ice area, but goes deep into the rock wall. Maybe it is a place where monsters are trapped inside, and the degree of danger is unpredictable.

But the sound of knocking ice is inside.

It sounded like someone was banging on an ice sled.

"Master Immortal, let's go in and take a look. We can tell what's going on at a glance. Since this place was built by Triton, we only need to go in and we'll know what's going on."

Ji Dao looked around with a flashlight, then listened carefully. He pointed to the depth of the brick hole and said, "The suspected human voice and the sound of knocking ice are from down there."

Zheng Yun nodded and asked the ghost general to move forward, and he walked forward holding on to the iron rope handrail. Every step of this iron rope bridge had a huge span, and it required a long stride to walk across it.

Walk to the opposite side of the rift.

They walked around for a while.

Only then did we finally get down to the entrance of the brick hole.

Hu Ruihua and others were at a high place behind them, using several flashlights to provide lighting for them. Huzi stared eagerly at the small backs of Zheng Yun and the others with very envious eyes.

This is too cruel.

Brother Zheng and the others are like dragons, pools, and tigers' dens in heaven and earth. They dare to go anywhere. There is no place in the world that they cannot go to, and they have the confidence to go there.

When will I have the confidence to go there and see what relics of gods and ghosts were left by the ancients in the depths of this extremely cold land of ice and snow...

He was thinking about this.

Zheng Yun and others have already stood at the entrance of the cave.

The flashlight shines into the hole. This brick wall hole is very impressive. It is about three meters wide and one hundred meters deep. At the end is a cave with a huge space, and the flashlight cannot even shine through the end.

"Is this the Hanxian Cave?"

Zheng Yun glanced at the entrance of the cave. There were no instructions or writings left by the ancients, not even a stone tablet.

"I don't think so." Ji Dao shook his head and pointed to the brick wall on the side: "This corridor is so wide, probably to facilitate the transportation of items."

"Then go in and have a look."

Zheng Yun still let the ghost general take the lead.

It's not that the ghost generals' lives are worthless, but they can't be considered living creatures, and there are still some abilities that haven't been fully developed, such as how they survived to this day.

This Hanxian Cave also has some longevity.

Maybe the ghost will work wonders here.

Following the ghost general into the cave, the sound of knocking on the ice was even more obvious, and it sounded very weird.

Click...

Click...

Zheng Yun suppressed his emotions and walked with the ghost to the end in one breath, walked out from the other end of the corridor, then raised the flashlight and looked around with extreme vigilance.

"hiss."

Zheng Yun couldn't hold back his breath.

Because this is actually a huge underground palace, surrounded by thick stone pillars six or seven meters high, supporting the dome of the underground chamber, but the dome is not a solid roof, but a whole wall of light blue color, which looks terrifying. Ice!

The ice was right above their heads.

It was tightly sealed by countless iron ropes.

And on the ground in the center of this underground chamber, there is also the same layer of ice, which is so deep that I don’t know how deep it is!

The entire basement is like a mezzanine carved out of an iceberg, and the scenery is really shocking.

Because the space is wide.

But the height is only six or seven meters.

The ice layer weighing tens of millions of kilograms is right above the head, so heavy that it is almost suffocating, and everyone will be frightened.

"Master Xian, look ahead."

Ji Dao raised his hand and pointed to the end.

There is a pavilion frozen in an iceberg. The number of floors cannot be clearly seen, but its top is frozen in the ice above the head, and the rest of the pavilion is submerged in the thick ice below.

It was covered in ice from top to bottom, with only the mezzanine part not frozen. At this time, the pavilion door was wide open, deep and strange.

"Is this the Demon Locking Pavilion?"

Zheng Yun looked at the attic and murmured questions.

He really didn't expect that it would be like this. What did the ancients do here?

There was such a big battle?

Although this space is not worth mentioning for the entire iceberg, the stone pillar support can keep the space from falling, and the ice itself is easy to dig and does not require much manpower.

But the temperature here is extremely low!

At 20 to 30 degrees below zero, even if the body temperature is relatively high, it is still an extremely cold place. Did the ancients build attics here?
