Heart palpitations
Chapter 2606 Heart palpitations
Sometimes, being too confident can lead to failure.
Because being too confident will make people arrogant, especially when dealing with things, which may affect their own behavior. There is no way to avoid this, it is just subconscious behavior.
Chen Mo was very strong, and with the cooperation of the mother and child ghosts, he felt that these centipedes and the like would not be able to affect him. So although he said to be careful, he occasionally didn't pay attention to the details.
This caused the accident just now. If Chen Mo hadn’t been so powerful, he might have been besieged and killed.
Fortunately, confidence comes from strength, not from imagination! So after dealing with these flying centipedes, I figured out some things and then retreated to ensure that I would not get hurt.
After all, a lion may be harmed by a mouse, and an elephant may be killed by an ant.
He turned around to avoid all the flying centipedes, and scanned the rooms in the palace with his spiritual sense.
There were still flying centipedes outside the palace and in the caves inside the palace, and the number had reached more than 60. There were also some huge centipedes that popped up in the caves, and some crawled out of the building and began to look for Chen Mo.
Although we don't know how these centipedes communicate with each other, it can be seen from the fact that they gathered together to look for Chen Mo that these centipedes have a certain degree of consciousness and intelligence.
The flying centipede, in particular, is quite smart. Not only can it conduct a net-like inspection back and forth, but it can also cooperate at different heights to find the enemy.
If Chen Mo didn't have the breath-concealing talisman on him, as well as some other breath-shielding talismans, and the cooperation of the mother and child ghosts, he would have been discovered.
Although the entire palace was large, there were only a few places with lights, and they were outside the palace. These places were the emergency fluorescent sticks that Zhou Ziyun and others had thrown down from the stone bridge when they first came in.
The rest of the place was dark, and the sight was further obstructed by the black fog of Zimu Agami. Fortunately, Chen Mo's consciousness was not affected, and he still had the ability to see during the day.
So there is no impact on walking in this palace.
As he walked, he put some of the gold and jewelry in the palace into his Qiankun bag.
Not all of them were taken away. After all, some of the things here had to be left for Zhou Ziyun and the others. However, I didn't know if those guys would use the Thunder Sword. If they did, the gold and jewelry left behind might become slag and be destroyed.
So after thinking about it, Chen Mo collected more of these gold, silver and jewelry. At least he could preserve these things with historical significance, and even if he sold them in the future, more people could see the historical and cultural content contained in them.
Hmm! Absolutely no love for gold jewelry.
When Chen Mo walked to the center of the palace, a huge main building of the palace appeared before his eyes.
This building is of typical Western style, with characteristics of Daqin architecture and some Indian architectural features. It is a typical onion-shaped building.
However, this onion is relatively large, and below the onion is a square building. In addition to the huge onion in the middle, there are smaller onions in the four corners, which is very characteristic of the Western Region architecture at that time.
The entire building is closed, and except for the corridor, all the doors and windows are normal. It looks like it has not been baptized by the years and has only been built for a short time.
The most important thing is that the building is all golden. Chen Mo stepped forward and observed with his spiritual sense, and found that the exterior walls of the building were all made of pure gold foil. In this way, even after thousands of years, it still exudes a pleasing atmosphere and color.
Hoohoo!
Chen Mo originally wanted to tear off some gold foil, but when he thought about the fact that it had been contaminated by something and would be discovered by the flying centipede, he had to give up.
The spiritual consciousness penetrated the wall and scanned it, and found that there was no hole inside.
He walked forward and pushed the door open using a stick. After pushing the door open, he immediately put the stick into his Qiankun bag so that he would not be exposed.
In an instant, the interior of the hall appeared before his eyes.
Everything in the palace was still there, including some wooden utensils, cloth, silk, and felt, all neatly arranged as if they were new. The interior was very large, and because of the suppression of the divine consciousness, there was no way to instantly cover the entire palace and see all the scenes inside.
But when he pushed the door open, he saw that the palace was full of life, and in the middle of the palace, on a huge stone platform, there was a coffin!
Suddenly, Chen Mo felt depressed. He didn't expect that such a beautiful building actually contained a mausoleum.
He walked forward and carefully observed the coffin, and found it to be very luxurious. There were some words written on one side of the coffin, but because it was written in Western language, Chen Mo didn't know what it meant.
He scanned with his spiritual sense and observed carefully, and found an old man lying in the coffin.
Yes, it was an old man, an old man who had been dead for a thousand years.
However, although this person had been dead for a thousand years, he had not changed much. He still had an old look and voice, and his beard and hair were all white. He was wearing clothes unique to the Western Regions, but on them were all various jewels, gold, etc. He must be either rich or noble.
Chen Mo guessed that it might be a king of the ancient city of Xiye. Looking at the hat on his head and the huge green gem on it, it was clear that this guy was not a simple person.
It would be great if he understood the Western characters, so that he could tell who the person was from the characters on the coffin.
As for why the people here have not decayed for thousands of years, there is a reason for that.
The most important thing is that this guy's coffin is made of pure jade, and various runes are carved on it. There are also spiritual stones inside the coffin, forming a small formation that protects and preserves this guy's body.
Of course, the spirit stone has become a little dim, and there may not be much spiritual power left in it, so after a few more years, the guy inside might turn into a pile of bones.
"Huh?" Chen Mo discovered that the guy lying there had a huge jade pendant around his neck. The jade pendant was as big as an adult's palm and as thick as a finger. It was made of white jade and was unusually warm.
Especially the lines on it, exuding a unique charm.
This piece of jade is not simple!
Chen Mo felt that this piece of jade should be the same as the one he got, both of which are good things that can be beneficial to cultivation.
Especially this piece, which is much bigger and thicker than the one I got. It doesn’t feel like something that can be found on this planet.
Because that piece of jade, even in the coffin, still exudes a unique beauty and contains a special aura. When the spiritual sense passes over it, one feels a sense of refreshment, as if it can purify one's sea of consciousness through the spiritual sense!
Although it looks like mutton-fat jade, it is probably not mutton-fat jade.
What is this thing? How can I have such a feeling just by scanning it with my spiritual sense?
Chen Mo felt that the reason why the body of this guy lying in the coffin was so lifelike might not only be due to the formation in the coffin, but also because of the jade pendant.
But Chen Mo had never seen the runes on the jade pendant before. Just like the small jade pendant in his hand, the runes on it were all new to him.
I feel like if I can’t get it, I might miss out on 10 billion!
Chen Mo thought about it and did it, so he scanned the coffin with his spiritual sense, trying to open it.
But after scanning around, I found that in order to open the coffin, I needed something specific. The lid of the coffin was locked from the inside, and only a special key could be used to open the coffin through the keyhole above the coffin.
Of course, Chen Mo doesn’t care about this, because in addition to the key, he can also perform miracles with great force.
Just use your own strength to push the coffin lid open.
As for the things locked inside, they are made of coffin materials and are not very solid.
However, Chen Mo pushed the coffin, but it didn't move. He continued to use force, but it didn't move at all.
Huh?
The lid of this coffin is connected to the coffin itself by runes. Inside this coffin, there is actually a formation that locks the coffin into a whole.
Apart from the key, although great force can work miracles, this amount of force is at least not something Chen Mo can satisfy right now.
How did he know? Because he could actually understand part of the formation above.
Haha! This is fucking ridiculous. A coffin containing a dead person is so ruthless. I am speechless!
As Chen Mo complained, he was thinking whether he should put the whole coffin into the Qiankun bag, so that when he got out later, he could find a way to open it. As long as he found a suitable place, he should be able to open the coffin easily with the Qingyu Sword.
But he didn't expect that the Qiankun bag couldn't hold it.
This fucking thing made him speechless again.
Although the jade pendant looked very good, I could only look at it but not get it, which made me feel itchy and uncomfortable.
Ugh!
Chen Mo wondered whether he should use the Jade Sword to cut it in half now?
But before he could take out the jade sword, he felt a palpitation in his heart!
It seemed that if the Jade Sword was taken out, something bad would happen.
Chen Mo still cares a lot about this. After all, as a cultivator, his sixth sense, or consciousness, is extremely sharp.
Because his mental power is strong, his sea of consciousness is also strong, able to detect danger and warn him.
Therefore, palpitations are a reminder from the sea of consciousness.
Danger? Chen Mo was stunned. Is there a place here that could threaten his life?
Could it be the old man lying in the sarcophagus?
Chen Mo couldn't tell at all that this old man was a living person; he was definitely dead.
But where does this palpitation come from?
