Ye Qiu heard the reminder from the Long-Browed True Man, looked up and forward, and suddenly took a deep breath.
I saw that in front of them, a huge graveyard appeared.
One after another, the graves were closely connected, densely packed, overgrown with weeds, and very dilapidated.
There were at least several thousand of them！
Moreover, on each grave, a rusty long sword was inserted.
It could be seen that these graves had existed for a very long time.
”My God, how could there be so many graves here？” The Long-Browed True Man exclaimed, “I don’t know what kind of people are buried in these graves？”
Ye Qiu stared at the nearest grave, opened his Celestial Eye, and his sight penetrated the soil layer.
The next second, his face changed drastically.
Ye Qiu discovered that there was a pitch-black coffin in the grave mound, and a middle-aged man was lying inside the coffin.
The middle-aged man was about forty or fifty years old, with a peaceful face as if in a deep sleep. However, in Ye Qiu’s perception, this middle-aged man had no vital signs at all.
Then, Ye Qiu looked at another grave mound.
The situation was almost the same.
There was also a pitch-black coffin in this grave mound, but a young man was lying inside.
The young man was dressed in white, with a handsome face and closed eyes, as if in a deep sleep.
“Little brat, what are you looking at？”
When the Long-browed True Man saw Ye Qiu staring at the grave mound with his eyes blinking, he asked Doubt.
“Don’t talk.”
Ye Qiu’s eyes continued to stare at those grave mounds, sweeping over them one by one. It took him a full half an hour to look at all the grave mounds.
There were exactly three thousand graves！
In each grave mound, there was a coffin, and a corpse was lying inside, some were men, some were women, some were old, and some were young. Although they had no life breath, there was no sign of corruption on their bodies at all, as if they had fallen into an endless deep sleep.
“Old thing, how long do you think these grave mounds have existed？” Ye Qiu asked.
The Long-browed True Man thought for a while and said, “In my opinion, at least several hundred years.”
“Maybe, it’s possible that it’s more than a thousand years.”
“Little brat, did you find something？”
Ye Qiu said, “Just now I counted, there are exactly three thousand graves here, and there is a corpse in each grave, but…”
“But what？” asked True Man Changmei hurriedly.
Ye Qiu said, “But the corpses in the graves have not decayed. Their expressions are peaceful, as if they are asleep.”
“That’s impossible！” said True Man Changmei. “Even if these people have only been dead for a few hundred years, they should only have bones left and it is impossible not to have decayed.”
Ye Qiu said, “The truth is that these corpses are intact.”
“Little brat, are you serious？ You’re not kidding me？”
“Do I look like I’m kidding？”
True Man Changmei frowned and said, “Could it be that what is recorded in the ancient books of Longhu Mountain is true and Shushan was really wiped out overnight back then？”
“Are the three thousand sword cultivators of Shushan buried in these graves？”
“By the way, little brat, what is the cause of death of the people in the graves？”
Ye Qiu shook his head： “I haven’t checked carefully, so I can’t see the cause of death for the time being, but it can be determined that there are no external injuries on them.”
“Forget it, leave them alone. It’s more important to find the dragon vein.”
“Old thing, you are proficient in feng shui. Can you find the dragon vein here?”
True Man Changmei hesitated to speak, and after a moment of hesitation, he said, “Little brat, let’s walk forward.”
After speaking, he stepped on the grass in the middle of the graves and walked forward.
Ye Qiu followed behind the Long-browed True Man, feeling a bit strange in his heart. He Secret passage ： “Just now, the old thing had a hesitant expression, clearly having something to say to me, but why did he hesitate？”
”What exactly does he want to say？”
”Could it be that there has been a change in the dragon vein here？”
Ye Qiu followed the Long-browed True Man, and the two walked through the middle of the grave mounds. All around were dense grave mounds.
As the two walked forward, they secretly observed.
Little bastard, why is there a sword inserted on each grave mound? The Long browed True Man asked Doubt.
Ye Qiu said： “I just noticed that the swords inserted on each grave mound, whether in length or style, are slightly different. Perhaps, these swords were the weapons of these deceased during their lifetimes and were buried here with them.”
The weapons of the Shushan Sword Cultivators during their lifetimes？
The eyes of the Long-browed True Man lit up, and he directly pulled out a rusty long sword from the grave mound.
”What are you doing？” Ye Qiu said： “Old thing, you wouldn’t even spare the things of the dead, would you？”
”Is there a problem？ Haven’t you ever taken the things of the dead？ Years ago, you even took away a top-quality white jade coffin from the Long family’s ancestral tomb.”
Ye Qiu said： “This coffin was transported to the Underworld Palace.”
”Hmph, you’d rather give it to the Underworld Palace than to me. Heartless！”
Then the Long-browed True Man continued, “The poor Taoist just wants to see what kind of weapons the sword cultivators of Mount Shu use.”
After saying that, the Long-browed True Man flicked his fingers at the sword sheath.
”Dang——”
The sword body trembled, and the rust spots on it fell off one after another. In the blink of an eye, a simple and unsophisticated long sword appeared in sight.
The style of the long sword was ordinary, and there were two seal script characters engraved on the sword sheath.
”Mount Shu！”
The Long-browed True Man held the sword handle and pulled it out forcefully. With a “clang” sound, the sword whistle was like a dragon’s roar.
The long sword was out of the sheath.
The Long-browed True Man looked down and saw that the sword body was cast from brass, with a flowing light like water and a chilly air compelling.
”What a good sword！”
The Long-browed True Man stretched out his hand to touch the sword edge. Unexpectedly, as soon as the skin touched the sword blade, a bloodstain appeared on his finger.
”So sharp！”
The Long-browed True Man said, “Little bastard, the sharpness of this sword is probably not much weaker than your Emperor Sword.”
Ye Qiu infused true energy into his fingertips and flicked the sword body gently. Suddenly, the sword body Send out a clear sword sound.
”It is indeed a good sword！” Ye Qiu exclaimed in surprise.
The Long-browed True Man said, “The poor Taoist just randomly pulled out a sword and it is so powerful. It can be seen how glorious Mount Shu was back then.”
Ye Qiu was filled with emotions. “Unfortunately, a generation of great sects has declined like this.”
“That’s right. Thinking back then, our Dragon and Tiger Mountain, as the ancestral court of Taoism in the world, was so glorious. But now, it’s not even as good as Wudang Mountain. It’s sad! It’s amazing!
After the Long Eyebrow True Man finished speaking, he put the long sword back into the scabbard and inserted it back on the grave again.
”Why did a sword get put back？” Ye Qiu asked.
The Long Eyebrow True Man said： “To be honest, this sword is very good. I like it very much. Even, I can’t wait to take all the swords here away.”
”However, I have my own principles when doing things.”
”Let this sword accompany its owner！”
At this time, the sky darkened. Looking up, not a single star could be seen. It was so dark that it was suffocating.
All sounds were silent. Not a single sound could be heard around.
It was so quiet that it was a little scary.
Ye Qiu suddenly thought of one thing and said： “Old thing, if the entire Shushan was wiped out, then who buried these sword cultivators？”
The Long Eyebrow True Man’s heart trembled： “Little brat, you mean there are still survivors in Shushan？”
As soon as the words fell.
Suddenly, a burst of footsteps sounded.
