Chapter 3977 Cemetery Entrance
Xiao Yi began to have some interest in the tomb owner, but the most important thing at the moment was to find Mieko. This matter must be explained.
There was only one village around Xinglong Mountain. The village was massacred more than 60 years ago. When Xiao Qian of the Xiao clan arrived with people, the tragedy had already happened. The ninjas were killed and the bodies were thrown into the deserted mountains at will.
The next step was to bury the bodies of these villagers. However, not all the villagers died in the massacre this time. Some of the young people went out to the mountains to collect herbs and hunt, and did not live in the village.
After avoiding this catastrophe, Xiao Qian later gave these people some funds to move away from here. This place has become a place of right and wrong. Since there was a first time, there will definitely be a second accident.
As for whether those people left, it is unknown. Under the starry night, Xiao Yi walked towards the top of Xinglong Mountain. It was more than two o'clock in the morning. A waning moon hung in the night sky in the west, making this dark night even more desolate.
The whole mountain was extremely desolate, with huge rocks exposed and trees growing in the cracks of the rocks. In the drought and lack of rain, some trees had already died and all the leaves had fallen off.
It was like a dried corpse stuck in the rocks. After walking a few steps, Xiao Yi seemed to kick something under his feet. He looked down and saw that it was a skeleton that Xiao Yi had just kicked out of the weeds.
The skeleton had been there for some years. The bones of a skeleton buried normally were white. This skeleton should have been thrown into the barren mountain before his death. The flesh had rotted and the bones had been exposed to the wind and sun for many years, and had already become fragile.
Xiao Yi leaned over and pulled apart the grass. In addition to the skeleton that was kicked out, there were some rotten and remaining bones in the grass. The leg bones and arm bones were not so easy to weather and could still maintain their original shape.
Some of the skeletons had broken leg bones, and some had obvious marks of being chopped by sharp weapons on their cervical vertebrae. After seeing this scene, it can be confirmed that what the three elders said before was correct. The bodies of the ninjas who had been killed were randomly discarded here.
The Xiao clan explicitly prohibited anyone from burying these bodies. The hands of these ninjas were stained with blood. Even if they were dead, they were not worthy of being buried in the loess. The bodies were piled here waiting to rot.
"It can't be wrong here."
Xiao Yi found many scattered corpses around. In addition to these, he also made a major discovery.
Just before reaching the top of the mountain, several collected stones were deliberately piled together. Behind the stones, a small stone tablet was buried in the soil.
It can be seen that this stone tablet was buried not long ago. The stone tablet is still new, and the material of this stone tablet is marble. There is no such material here. A line of words written on the tablet attracted Xiao Yi's attention.
"You really came here, and your speed was quite fast, but unfortunately you still underestimated some things."
Xiao Yi showed a sneer on his face. The stone tablet was in Japanese, which meant to comfort the heroic spirits who died in the battle. In that battle, the Xiao clan did not suffer any casualties, and those who died were all ninjas.
So this tablet should have been brought by Mieko, and it also proved that Xiao Yi's thinking was correct. Mieko did come here. After seeing this stone tablet, Xiao Yi's steps became more determined.
Continue to walk forward, less than 50 meters away, he was already standing on the top of Xinglong Mountain. Looking around, the top of the mountain was bare, and there was no sign of the existence of a cave.
Confirming that the place he was looking for was correct, then where was the cemetery here that the third elder said? Xiao Yi looked around again, without missing any place, but still did not gain anything.
"Since ordinary means don't work, let's try this."
Xiao Yi sat cross-legged, and the power of his soul spread out. With Xiao Yi's current strength, the power of his soul can easily penetrate the rocks here and go deep into the ground to see what's going on.
The top of the mountain seemed to be empty, but as Xiao Yi explored with his soul, he found a clue. There was another mystery at a location on the top of the mountain. After noticing this, Xiao Yi withdrew his spirit.
He stood up and walked forward. There was an open space on the top of the mountain. There were two huge rocks on the open space. If you look closely, you will find that there are tiny runes engraved on the huge rocks. The mystery lies on these runes.
Looking up at the sky, there is only one star that is unusually bright among the vast stars and creatures. It is particularly conspicuous in the night sky. This star is Yinglong Star.
Yinglong, also known as Huanglong and Feilong, is a real dragon in ancient Chinese legends and the ancestor of the dragon clan. Its descendants include Jianma, Qilin, and Phoenix. Yinglong is both a Hercules and the wife of Taiyi, implying unparalleled fame and training the first cavalry of China. Legend has it that Yinglong's tears formed the Yellow Spring in the underworld.
In the Battle of Zhuolu, he helped Emperor Xuanyuan Huangdi fight against Chiyou, killed Chiyou in the Valley of Xiongli, and hunted Kui Niu; he also helped Yu control the flood, using the dragon's tail to draw a river on the ground to guide the flood into the sea, and captured Wuzhiqi and Xiangliu. His appearance is described as a winged dragon; he is also considered to be the ancestor of dragons, phoenixes and auspicious beasts, and a giant god who divides yin and yang.
The choice of the entrance to the cemetery just corresponds to the Yinglong star in the sky. Is there any connection between the two? Thinking of this, Xiao Yi looked at the two boulders in front of him again.
I finally understood the meaning of the runes carved on the boulder. It turns out that the two stones look the same, but they are one yin and one yang. The yin and yang are the key to the cemetery, and it is also a test for future generations. .
There is a Tai Chi diagram carved on the ground. Only by placing the two stones in their proper positions according to the Tai Chi diagram and the distribution of yin and yang can the entrance be successfully found, otherwise something terrible will happen.
A huge stone weighs several thousand kilograms. With the tomb owner's arrangement, even if you can see through the stars in the sky and the mysteries here, if you don't have extraordinary abilities, you will never be able to open the entrance to this cemetery.
Xiao Yi put his hands on the boulder and pushed the boulder hard. Under the influence of Xiao Yi's strong arm strength, the boulder began to rotate slowly. Xiao Yi rotated the boulder 180 degrees counterclockwise.
There was a dull sound under the boulder, and the Yin-Yang Return Formation was activated. From the middle of the two boulders, an entrance slowly appeared. Xiao Yi breathed a sigh of relief and looked down towards the entrance. One glance.
"Has the entrance appeared? I want to see what rare treasures there are here that can be so attractive and make these ninjas so crazy!"
After Xiao Yi jumped in, as soon as Xiao Yi's toes touched the ground, the entrance to the cemetery above his head was closed again. It seemed that if he wanted to leave, he had to find another way.
