Ruotao paused for a moment before speaking, and then continued: "Although I have never seen that ancient corpse, I also know that it is very scary. Mr. Guan, do you really plan to go to the top of the stone platform?"

"Yes, what I'm looking for must be there." Guan Heng closed the lid of the bamboo basket and asked casually: "Is there really no path to there?"

"Yes, yes, that stone platform is actually the top of a strange stone mountain underground. In fact, from top to bottom, it is a mountain path that keeps climbing up. Later, it was artificially dug into a stone platform."

Ruotao blinked at this time and said: "The topmost stone platform is the smallest in area. After the original stairs connected here were destroyed, there are only a dozen chains left to climb up from the bottom to reach the top."

"So that's it. From this point of view, Qinghuang's remnant soul is most likely attached to the ancient corpse. If I want to go up and find out, I have to climb on the chain." Guan Heng said lowly at this time.

He murmured to himself: "Is that ancient corpse really powerful?"

"Dang, of course it's awesome!" Ruotao was afraid that Guan Heng wouldn't believe him at this time. If he accidentally lost his life, then his hope of escaping from the ancient city would be gone. At this moment, Ruotao's eyes suddenly fell behind Guan Heng.

On the scabbard of the sword, she cried out: "Master Guan, it turns out that this sword fell into your hands?!"

"What? Are you talking about this?" Guan Heng stroked the hilt of the sword at this time, and then said: "This sword can absorb the spiritual energy on my body and turn it into sword light. Unfortunately, the blade is only three inches long, and once it is absorbed

My aura, it seems like it will never stop until it drains all my aura, it’s really a weird thing.”

"Oh, Mr. Guan, this sword is the only sword handed down from ancient times in Tianwu Kingdom that can restrain strange corpses. Its name is 'Jumang's Sword'." Ruotao said at this time: "I am in Tianwu Kingdom.

I have been a maid to the leader of the Kuomintang and the Communist Party for a long time, and I often hear him recount some legends about the Sword of Jumang..."

It turns out that most of the evil things in the world will be restrained by the ancient sacred trees, such as the ancient catalpa tree core in Guan Heng's hand, or other ancient trees with long ages.

In ancient times, there was a wood god in the East called "Jumang". It is said that he had a human head and the body of a giant falcon. He often patrolled the four directions with two sky-controlling dragons at his feet. Jumang's favorite

He is planting various trees. The fairy trees planted by his hands are long-standing and lush, and can bring an atmosphere to the world in all directions.

Although Jumang personally planted countless plants, the most famous ones are the twelve towering trees. It is said that each of these twelve trees is so high that it can connect the sky and the earth.

When the seeds of these twelve trees were planted into the soil, a drop of their own blood was dripped into them by Jumang. From then on, they had spirituality that was different from other plants. After they fully grew up, they all possessed extremely profound spirituality.

Zhi and Jumang even regarded them as their avatars and talked freely about their thoughts.

But suddenly one day, a powerful enemy who had a grudge against Gou Mang came to kill him. This guy was powerful and ruthless. He first killed the two dragons that were protecting Gou Mang, and then secretly attacked Gou Mang and seriously injured him.

.

The place where the battle took place happened to be where twelve towering ancient trees grew. At the critical moment, the oldest ancient tree transformed into a "tree spirit" and risked his life to protect the master, and finally blocked Gou Mang's body.

He received a fatal blow and was seriously injured. Jumang took this opportunity to fight back and finally killed the powerful enemy. However, the tree spirit was already in danger and was about to be annihilated on the spot.

At that critical moment, the tree spirits of the remaining eleven ancient trees all appeared, and everyone worked together to exert their spiritual power, barely saving the life of the oldest tree spirit.

However, the tree spirit was seriously injured and extremely weak, and needed to fall into endless dormancy. Moreover, because the oldest tree spirit could not support its tree body, his towering ancient tree finally withered and collapsed, leaving only less than three feet.

A dead branch of.

Looking at the tree spirit sleeping in the endless sea of ​​trees, the wood god Jumang felt distressed and blamed himself. In order to alert himself to this matter, and to commemorate the tree spirit's loyal protection of the Lord, Jumang removed the dead branch.

It was refined into a sword embryo, and he spent countless years soaking and tempering it with his own divine power and blood, and finally polished it to create a "Sword of Jumang".

When this sword of Jumang first appeared in the world, it showed great power and was more capable of restraining the evil spirits in the world. However, for some unknown reason, it fell to the world with the mysterious disappearance of the wood god Jumang, and

It became the most important treasure of Tianwu Kingdom.

When Ruotao narrated the past events to this point, she added: "These stories were all told to me by Mr. Co-Zhu when he had nothing to do. At that time, I thought they were just vague and insubstantial things. Who knows...

Not long after that, our Kingdom of Heavenly Witches perished, and all my friends, including the co-owner, the queen, the prince, and the princess, all passed away."

"Ruotao, I see that the scabbard is more than two feet long at least, but why is there only three inches of the blade left?" At this moment, Guan Heng asked with doubts in his heart: "If this sentence "The Sword of Mang" is really true,

It's so powerful, why did the blade break?"

Ruotao replied with a confused look on her face: "Ah?! Well... I'm not sure about that either."

"Because I was just an ordinary maid at the time and did not directly participate in the battle to capture the ancient corpse. Of course, I don't know how the sword blade was broken..."

After saying this, Ruotao seemed a little embarrassed, and she continued: "But, the co-leader once said before his death that after countless years of wear and tear, most of the divine power of the Jumang Sword has been lost.

It was completely exhausted, which led to it breaking during the battle with the strange corpse, but as long as the blade remains on the strange corpse, it will definitely be imprisoned in place forever."

"So, the broken blade of Jumang Sword is still on the body of the ancient corpse?!"

Guan Heng finally understood it at this time, and he had already sketched out the picture of the top rooftop in his mind: a strange corpse that had not decayed for thousands of years, trapped in the original place by a thick iron chain and the broken blade of the Jumang Sword.

place, and the remnant soul of Qinghuang is also hidden in a certain part of its body.

"Master Guan, if you want to deal with that strange corpse, it's too risky." At this moment, Ruotao whispered: "How about this, I, I will go and help you..."

"No need, Ruotao." Looking at the other party's timid expression, Guan Heng knew that this weak and timid female ghost actually had to summon up the courage to say that she wanted to go with him. In fact, Ruotao's heart

She must be scared to death, even though she is already dead...
