Chapter 242 I seem to have seen it somewhere
Entering Dongdu, holding a flashlight in hand, I used the faint light to see the scene ahead clearly.
This is an abandoned basement located beneath the city. Surprisingly, the ground is paved with stone bricks instead of ordinary soil.
Due to the limited light from the flashlight, the road ahead is blurry and can only illuminate a range of five meters around.
At this time, Dongdu asked: "Do you smell anything?"
Zhang Liang nodded. “As soon as I opened this door, I smelled a stench of corruption.”
Dongdu nodded, and at this moment the little golden monkey suddenly pointed at Zhang Liang's head in fear.
Dongdu immediately shone the flashlight above their heads. With the help of the light, Zhang Liang actually saw a skeleton hanging above his head. The skeleton was covered in a black robe.
The light was insufficient to make out the skeleton's face.
Zhang Liang gently swung the sword of immortality in his hand forward, and a stream of sword energy shot towards the location of the skeleton.
Then, Zhang Liang quickly moved away from where he had just stood. Sure enough, the skeleton fell from where it had just stood. Zhang Liang carried Dongdu on his back, walked towards the skeleton, and slowly used the Changsheng Sword to remove the rags on the black-robed man's face.
What appeared before his eyes was a skeleton, as if it had been dead for hundreds of years. However, the little golden monkey was still screaming.
Dongdu teased, "Little guy, what are you afraid of? Isn't it just a pile of bones?"
Although Dongdu said it easily, Zhang Liang felt that things might not be that simple. When would a little golden monkey that could fight tigers and leopards in the forest be afraid of white bones?
Dongdu was about to speak when he heard Zhang Liang say, "You see, this skeleton is unusual."
Dongdu immediately looked at the bones. The man in the black robe had turned into bones. At this moment, red spots were flashing in the two dark eye sockets.
Dongdu was shocked. Slowly, a snake head emerged from the eye socket of the white bone. The snake head was triangular, with a crack on the head. Inside, a red light flickered, as blazing as a flame. Slowly, the whole snake body also snaked out, and the snake body was covered with fiery red lines.
In the dim light, it seemed as if the snake's body was burning with flames. Dongdu asked in surprise: "What kind of strange snake is this? Why is it so weird?"
Before he finished speaking, the snake suddenly jumped up and bit Zhang Liang. Zhang Liang dodged swiftly, and the Changsheng Sword slid along the snake's body, but it made a sound of metal collision. What a hard scale! Dongdu looked at Zhang Liang and said so.
At this time, the fiery red snake had appeared behind Zhang Liang and the little golden monkey. The little golden monkey bared its teeth and roared. The snake slowly twisted its body, as if preparing for the next round of attack.
Zhang Liang suddenly took out something from his arms and threw it at the snake. Seeing the object, the snake immediately became panicked and scurried away in an instant.
After the snake ran away, Dongdu asked in confusion: "What did you throw just now? Why did the snake leave immediately?"
Zhang Liang smiled and said, "You didn't look closely at the patterns on the snake. If I'm not mistaken, those patterns symbolize the power of fire. And what I threw out was something I made myself, something that sealed the cold. Although snakes are cold-blooded animals, this one is obviously different, so it left."
Dongdu nodded thoughtfully.
The three continued to move forward. Just as they passed the skeleton, Dongdu suddenly said, "Look, there seems to be something on his belt." Zhang Liang immediately turned around and looked at the skeleton. Sure enough, there was an object similar to a jade pendant hanging on the belt of the man in black robe.
Zhang Liang motioned the little golden monkey to take it and checked it, but he didn't find any information. At this time, Dongdu said, "Show it to me, I think I've seen it somewhere."
Zhang Liang handed the jade pendant to Dong Du. Dong Du carefully examined the patterns on the jade pendant and suddenly asked in surprise: "How could it be this? Who is he?"
Zhang Liang asked: "What's the origin of this?"
"If I'm not mistaken, this should be a Confucian item, and it may represent a direct disciple of Confucianism. There is a word 'three' engraved on it, which I don't quite understand. I have seen a similar jade pendant on a direct disciple of Confucianism."
After listening to Dong Du's explanation, Zhang Liang nodded, "I didn't expect that there would be Confucian disciples here."
