A+ A- Turn Off Light

I noticed this scene, and Xue and Chengxin naturally noticed it too. I can’t say what kind of mood I was in, but I felt like I was already a part of this existence, and I couldn’t help it.

But the bugs were still flying around cheerfully. It’s not easy to think, but it’s also not easy to think, right?

“Let’s go.” My voice echoed in the narrow, long space, but there was really nothing else to do but keep moving.

I don’t know how long I walked in the dark, I had no concept of time, maybe it was 40 minutes, or maybe it was an hour? The feeling of unease made the buzzing of the insects pleasant. We hadn’t reached the end yet.

“Are we going to walk forever?” Cheng Xin said to himself.

“If it weren’t for that strange sense of crossing, I would think that we would keep walking along this road to the center of the earth.” I also replied to Chengxin Ge.

Ruoxue had been quiet until this moment, when she suddenly said, “I have a feeling that we are almost there. The insects are reacting strongly, and that powerful aura attracts insects.”

“Really?” Cheng Xin Ge said noncommittally, but the next moment he said, “Are we really close?”

After walking in the dark for so long, our eyes had become more or less accustomed to the darkness. When Cheng Xin Ge said this, I also saw it. After the first two steps, there was a corner!

We had been walking straight down for so long, and there was a corner, which meant that we were really close!

We couldn’t wait to enter the corner, but the moment we did, we couldn’t help but cover our eyes because there was finally light, and it was very bright!

After adjusting to the light for a while, we opened our eyes and looked at everything in front of us. We both let out a gasp of surprise. Is this really the entrance to the Dragon Tomb?

I have seen the magnificent den of the young fox and the gold-leafed basement of Luo Fanming, but neither of these places is as magnificent as this corridor.

Every two meters, there is a long-burning lamp made of pure gold, and the floor is neatly inlaid with pieces of well-polished jade.

The walls on both sides are also inlaid with jade, with magnificent reliefs on them. The key positions of the reliefs are expressed in gold, silver and precious stones.

“Brother Chengxin, what is the emperor’s tomb? If we have the heart to take some of the things here, I think we will be rich, right? We don’t have to work hard to earn the money to go to Penglai, right?” I said almost numbly in the face of the splendor before me.

Money moves people’s hearts. I asked myself if I had a strong desire for money, but in the face of the ‘jewels and precious stones’ of today, I still had an instinctive heart-throb. This is something engraved into the soul of mankind, and it is relatively difficult to get rid of it.

Cheng Xin Ge said in a low voice, “I’m afraid there’s no way to do that. Look.” Cheng Xin Ge pointed to where we were standing, which was the wall at the entrance.

There is a relief with text on it, written in classical Chinese. The first sentence has a specific explanation, which roughly translates to the contents here belong to the owner’s private hobbies. People who come here must not be interested in these worldly things, and of course they can take them away, but they will bear the consequences themselves.

We are obviously not tomb robbers. We still have a lot of faith and scruples. We definitely don’t think that the owner is exaggerating when he writes this sentence. So when we saw it, we decided in our hearts that we would definitely take away any gold and silver treasures here, even if it was just a small gem.

But I continued to read that paragraph, and the more I read, the more I felt scared and excited. In the end, my heart was pounding, my mouth was dry, and I was in a state of disbelief.

Not only me, but also Chengxin, who has a habit of grabbing people’s shoulders and arms when he gets excited. I felt Chengxin’s hand on my shoulder getting tighter and tighter, but because of the excitement of our mood, I couldn’t feel the pain, and Chengxin couldn’t feel the force. It wasn’t until afterwards that I saw that my shoulder was bruised.

This text is not long, written in classical Chinese, probably only a few hundred words, but it contains the information we most want to know, and many mysteries are solved!

We looked at each sentence carefully and translated each sentence accurately. This text is actually about the life and death of a dragon.

The owner of this tomb was indeed a dragon, or more precisely a dragon from Kunlun, and in one of the short passages, there are memories of Kunlun!

I looked at every word there with excitement. In its description, Kunlun is a place that is always in the soft sunlight and misty fog. The space there is different from here, not so concrete (I can’t understand this sentence), so it can be said that it is infinitely large.

It is beautiful, but the degree of beauty is not specifically described in the text. I just tried to understand the sentence, and I think it means that everything is alive and decorated by nature, the mountains are green, the water is clear, everything is in its original color, full of vitality and primitive beauty, and all of this is wrapped in an abundant, fresh, sweet air (air, or perhaps spiritual energy).

Everything that lives there is a higher life form, some of which exist and think. Their thoughts are close to nature, not rejecting the natural law of struggle, but having a peaceful mind to accept the results, and then moving on (my understanding of this sentence seems to be specious). The thoughts of that existence radiate light, restraining the continuation there, full of compassion for those below, but also disappointment.

In short, this dragon misses it there, and has always missed it.

After this memory, there was another narrative, and this narrative corroborated with the legend that Ruoxue told me at the beginning and the clue that I later learned about鈥攖he Kunlun Daoist.

The dragon was not very clear about the specific origin of that memory, but its narrative only said that on a certain day, some beings there decided to use a special method to open the “Gate of Kunlun” and receive some people from below to come to Kunlun to “practice the Dao.”

Everything has a cause and an effect. This matter is essentially against the will of heaven, and Kunlun is also under the control of heaven’s will. This kind of defiance of heaven is to destroy the free progress of the lower world, and to a certain extent, it will change the course of some things. This is extremely serious.

When I read this, a cold sweat rolled down my back. It’s simple. What I learned from my master since I was a child is that changing one’s fate against the heavens is a great cause and effect. This kind of cause and effect is very difficult to repay. Not only will it affect one’s own lives for many lifetimes, but it will even affect one’s family.

A person who goes against the will of heaven and changes their fate is already such a great cause and effect debt, not to mention that according to the description in this article, some of the beings there are almost changing the pace of a group of people!

So, I couldn’t help but break into a cold sweat, not daring to imagine how to bear the consequences of such an outcome.

I continued to read on, and it was clearly written that such things were not allowed and were quickly stopped before they could spread. But the fact that it had already happened meant that it had already begun to have an effect, and naturally, it would also have a result.

The opening of the “Kunlun” gate is against the will of heaven. Even some powerful beings cannot stabilize every “Kunlun” gate. Therefore, some of the beings of Kunlun have already been left behind in the lower realms, and the evil consequences have already been sown. When will the disaster be brought, that is also unknown.

So, this is the law of cause and effect! It is also a punishment deliberately brought by heaven!

Reading this, my heart beat faster again. What else could it be? It must be the disaster of Kunlun! I think I have seen them too. Purple plants, purple demon insects. Yes, they were never meant to exist in this world.

They have already caused disasters, or are causing disasters, or are still hidden. The consequences can be great or small. If they are great, the whole world will spread out. If they are small, they will be stopped in time.

Or some that have already had an impact have been suppressed!

I suddenly realized why my master, who is such a free spirit, would travel all over the world to stop things. My master is also actively involved in some things. It is because my master is almost certain to have received the Kunlun teachings. Is he doing this to eliminate some of the evil consequences for his own “master”?

After all, he also received the Kunlun teachings, and he is also one of the causes. It is only natural that he would resolve the causes and effects!

And this dragon is also innocent. It is just a dragon living in the dragon clan of Kunlun. Because the door to Kunlun is open, the space is uncertain, and it has inexplicably fallen below!
