Chapter 49 Qimen Dunjia
The dragons gathered together, and the stone door opened. Along with the sound of the bluestones rubbing against each other, the ground of the cave could be felt shaking.
The yellow-robed people present were waiting for the stone door to open completely. Li Daoxuan also squinted his eyes and looked into the Dragon Mausoleum. However, before they could see the situation in the mausoleum clearly, they heard a clear dragon roar. A strong wind blew out, blowing the stone cave into chaos. Then they saw a golden shadow coming out of the cave and flying towards the outside.
The shadow came and went very quickly, but Li Daoxuan still saw clearly what it was.
A dragon shadow!
The horns were like those of a deer, the head was like that of a camel, the eyes were like those of a rabbit... Even though he had never seen such an auspicious creature as a dragon, Li Daoxuan could still remember the image of a dragon clearly. But now he saw a real dragon, a real dragon that rushed out from Longling and disappeared into the world!
This was such a shocking thing that Li Daoxuan's mind was completely blank. The soul-stirring dragon roar seemed to still echo in his ears. He could hardly imagine that there were such creatures as dragons in the world.
"Could it be that the stories the old Taoist told are all true?" With so many thoughts in his mind, Li Daoxuan felt for the first time that his knowledge was lacking. But thinking about it, it was right. After all, zombies and ghosts existed, so why was it so strange that Longling existed? He needed to accept this world, a world that was completely different from what he imagined.
Just as Li Daoxuan was lamenting the appearance of a true dragon, the voices of the Yellow Robe followers came to his ears at the right time.
"The trapped dragon ascends to heaven! The trapped dragon ascends to heaven!" the Taoist shouted at the top of his lungs. "I never thought that the real dragon in the Dragon Tomb would actually crawl in front of the stone gate and escape when the stone gate opened."
"Don't be upset, sir. It's just a dragon shadow. Even if it escapes, it won't affect our plan." The eldest son of the Wang family comforted.
"You don't understand." The Taoist regained his composure and sighed. He held up his whisk and looked into the interior of Longling. He looked at the situation in Longling and said, "The thing just now has been nurtured by this dragon vein for hundreds of years and has already taken shape. If you can use the dragon trapping technique to imprison it and extract its essence, its wonderful uses will be endless. Its prosperity will bring purple air from the east, and its destiny will turn the world upside down. It is truly a treasure unparalleled in the world. If you can use this thing to return to life, you don't have to be a living dead like you are now. You can only go out at night, but it is unbearable to act during the day."
"I originally thought that this thing should be hidden deep in Longling, lying dormant and waiting for the opportunity from heaven. I never expected that it would fall in front of this stone door, and then open the door and escape."
"This thing actually has such intelligence? It's really a wonder. We were careless." After hearing the Taoist's words, the eldest son of the Wang family finally understood what a great opportunity he had just let go. And this great fortune was right in front of them, and they let it go for nothing. He was already a little annoyed when he spoke again, and his expression became even more gloomy.
"Forget it, forget it. It's time, it's fate. If heaven doesn't give it, human power can't take it away. The trapped dragon ascends to heaven and becomes a real dragon, flying in the sky." The Taoist sighed and brushed the matter aside. "Let's go in first. Although we lost a lot of relics, there are still some in Longling. This dragon has been dormant for a hundred years, and it must have undergone a transformation. If we can find the things that transformed it, it will be a rare treasure."
As they continued to talk, the yellow-robed people also smiled. After all, no one wanted to set up a plan for many years, but in the end there would be no reward.
"Take those people with you, we'll need them as sacrifices." The Taoist said, and he took the lead and walked into the Dragon Mausoleum.
Li Daoxuan was put on a cart and entered the Dragon Mausoleum with a creaking sound. He didn't expect that he had just received a dragon-seeking order a few days ago, but today he inexplicably entered the Dragon Mausoleum. It was really fate that played tricks on him.
A group of dozens of people, pushing more than ten carts, all held torches, knives and guns and headed towards the mausoleum. Several people were left behind to guard the stone gate to keep watch.
A few moments after the Taoist went in, the several yellow-robed guards in front of the stone gate suddenly saw a beautiful figure appear. They raised their muskets vigilantly and aimed at the figure.
"Who are you!" the man in yellow robe shouted, and suddenly he felt something seemed to be put around his neck.
Then a gentle whisper came, and the shy words of the woman echoed in my ears: "Excuse me, we just want to go in and take a look. Can you please shut up?"
Although the words were said with a shy smile, the silk thread wrapped around the neck was extremely tough. The yellow-robed men all felt a tearing pain on their necks, and they looked over with their eyes wide open. The woman in green was holding the silk thread in her hand and looking at them shyly.
Immediately, blood splattered everywhere, and several heads flew high into the air. Red and white blood were scattered all over the cave, and with a thud, several heads rolled down, some buried their faces in the sand, and some stared at the top of the cave with their eyes wide open.
"Is this Longling?" The beautiful figure slowly came in, followed by several people. Her face was revealed under the light of the torch, and her cold and beautiful face was something that could only be admired from afar and not desecrated. Looking at the things around her and the blood flowing on the stone gate, Aunt Xue reached out and gently touched the stone gate.
"We just heard a dragon roar, it must be a real dragon that has escaped. It seems that this is the real mausoleum where dragons are born." Aunt Xue said slowly, and the others came out. The junior sister wrapped herself tightly in a cloak, frowned slightly when she saw the dead body on the ground.
"Sister Qingque always makes things so bloody."
"Is it my fault? I'm sorry, little junior sister. I will pay more attention next time." Qingque smiled with her hands covering her mouth embarrassedly.
"Let's not talk nonsense, Yuan'er. It's up to you. Don't tarnish the reputation of the Wolong lineage." Aunt Xue said, looking at the little junior sister.
The junior sister pursed her lips and walked to the corpses with a bitter face: "I know."
Standing in front of the corpse, the little sister's face became serious. She took out a few yellow talismans from her sleeves, pinched them between her fingers, and made hand gestures. She stepped out with her left foot first, took one step, and chanted the mantra once.
"Six Jia and Nine Chapters, the sky is round and the earth is square, the four seasons and the five elements, the sun and the moon are the light, Yu is the way of governance, Chi You wards off the soldiers, the blue dragon protects... Hurry up and obey the command!"
He stopped and pointed at everyone, then he made a spell again. He stepped on the Gang Step and was in the Nine Palaces.
"Wu, Ji, Geng..."
"Zi, Chou, Yin..."
"Heaven and earth forget themselves, creation is mysterious..."
"disease!"
As soon as the spell was finished, several yellow talismans flew out and attached to everyone's body, and then they were as firm as glue.
"The combination of the Wulong lineage's Qimen Dunjia and the talisman is truly extraordinary. Even I can hardly detect it." Aunt Xue looked at the yellow talisman on her body, and a look of approval appeared on her cold face. "He is indeed a rare genius in the Wulong lineage."
"That's right. I am a gifted genius, one in a million." The little sister felt a little proud of being praised, and even her senior brother Kui Yuan smiled a little more.
"Let's go. Let me see what Emperor Taizu of the Ming Dynasty would have put in Longling." Aunt Xue did not disturb everyone's interest. She looked at the already opened stone gate and walked in first.
Several people followed him and stepped in one by one.
In the dark mausoleum, one could not see one's hand in front of one's face. Aunt Xue held a torch, and the flame swayed in the breeze, making people fall into a trance and confusion.
