Facts have proved that Ye Lingyue's worries are not superfluous.
The Queen Mother recalled for a while and said.
"If I remember correctly, Qi'er entered the underground palace at the beginning of last month."
It was shortly after the queen mother told Xiahou Qi of the existence of the underground palace, Xiahou Qi stayed up all night and entered the underground palace.
The next day, he went to the Emperor's Temple in a daze and knelt for a day.
At the beginning of last month, Ye Lingyue made some calculations, and her heart sank again.
Forty-eight days, it was more than forty-eight days since Xiahou Qi opened the coffin, and it was less than a few hours before the end of the forty-nine days.
Seeing Ye Lingyue's face darken, the queen mother beside her became anxious.
"Ye Fangshi, what did you find? Is there something wrong with Qi'er?"
"If there is anything wrong, we will not know until around midnight. The most urgent thing is to find a way to eliminate the ghost worms."
Ye Lingyue flew past, her gaze finally resting on the last few lines of the book.
"The dark coffin is the birthplace of the dark pattern and the dark worm, and it is also the place where they die. Everything starts from here, and everything ends here. To open the dark coffin, you can use the soul of the real dragon and the body of the real dragon, but if there is a higher The body of soul and flesh can speed up the opening of the coffin."
At the end of the secret history, Xiahouke left this line of ambiguous words.
"The underworld patterns and underworld worms both start from the underworld coffin and end from the underworld coffin. Are they higher-level existences than the real dragon's body and real dragon's soul?"
Ye Lingyue chewed on these two lines of words.
She read the secret history from beginning to end, but there was no description of the coffin of the underworld, nor any description of the underworld worm.
Presumably, when Xiahouke was alive, after the Great Xia was established, the power of the Dark Territory gradually faded out of the human world.
After the people from the Dark Leader left, only a dark coffin was left behind.
Xiahouke and other successive Emperors of Xia were frightened to death when they learned that the body and soul of a real dragon were required to open the coffin, and they did not dare to open the coffin.
The coffin of the underworld has not been opened, so naturally there will be no worries about the underworld patterns and underworld worms.
In Xia Houqi's generation, because of Gu Yuehai, Xia Houqi encountered the most difficult moment since the founding of the Great Xia. He was forced to open the coffin of the underworld. Unexpectedly, he also released the demon in the coffin of the underworld, the underworld worm. and Mingwen.
It is easy to ask God to send God away, and the dark pattern has turned into a dark worm, and now the whole summer is in dire straits.
Ye Lingyue stared at the secret history and remained silent for a long time.
"Ye Fangshi? It's getting late..."
The queen mother looked at the time hourglass. It had been two hours since they entered the underground palace, and it was almost midnight.
"We have to leave. There is no direct record in this secret history to eliminate the ghost worm."
Ye Lingyue put away the secret history.
"Then what should we do? Isn't it Qi'er and the people of Daxia?"
The queen mother looked anxious.
"For the current plan, we can only let Xia Houqi think of his own way."
Ye Lingyue has reached this point, and there is really nothing she can do.
As soon as midnight arrives, seventy-seven and forty-nine days will expire, and then the coffin will burst out and devour Xia Houqi's real dragon body.
Ye Lingyue planned to let Xia Houqi's soul try to see if it could lead out of the coffin.
As long as the underworld coffin is drawn out and the underworld coffin is temporarily prevented from devouring Xia Houqi's body, there is still a chance.
"Let Qi'er come up with his own ideas? Fangshi Ye, what are you talking about?"
The queen mother seemed to understand but not understand.
"Queen, time is running out, we must stop the coffin from swallowing the body of the real dragon."
After Ye Lingyue finished speaking, she took out a talisman and grabbed the Queen Mother. The two were enveloped by the light of the talisman and disappeared into the underground palace the next moment.
It was almost midnight, outside the gate of the summer palace, a group of people and the worms were still in a stalemate with each other.
Concubine Qing glared at Nan Shishi and the others.
But the focus of her gaze was Xia Houqi's body.
After midnight, when the dark coffin matures, Xia Houqi's body will be swallowed by the dark coffin. At that time, the dark coffin will find out where Xia Houqi's soul is.
When the body of the real dragon and the soul of the real dragon merge into one, the coffin will truly mature.
At that time, the coffin of the underworld will hatch more underworld patterns and more powerful underworld worms, and the entire human world will be completely turned into the domain of the Dark Territory.
"Headmaster, it's only a quarter of an hour until midnight."
The angry monk didn't dare to make a sound.
The past two hours have been the most tormenting period for Monk Wufury.
Although those ghost worms did not attack because they avoided Xia Houqi's physical body, they refused to give up an inch. Nan Shishi and others wanted to leave, and it was as difficult as heaven.
"Deputy sect master, why don't you use talismans?"
Guanshi Song at the side was also so anxious that cold sweat broke out on his forehead.
There are still some teleportation symbols in the hands of the disciples of Tianmen, so they can escape from death.
But Chang Wu, the deputy sect master, never spoke, and these disciples did not dare to act rashly.
They didn't understand why the sect master didn't give the order.
Chang Wu also had a complicated expression on his face. He looked at Ming Chong, and then at Xia Houqi.
How could Chang Wu not know that this ghost worm is very tricky, if it is a little later, even he will be eaten alive.
If today, the Tianmen disciples use the teleportation talisman to leave, although they can survive, it is tantamount to admitting defeat.
This is tantamount to handing over Daxia.
It's nothing if Daxia is gone, but it is equivalent to losing all the chips used to deal with Ye Lingyue. These chips are the only way to obtain the Heaven Sealing Order.
It is precisely because of this idea that Chang Wu has been hesitant.
It was the last quarter of an hour, and Chang Wu looked at the sky.
"It seems that you are all unwilling to give up until the Yellow River, so I let you see the great coffin of the underworld."
Seeing midnight approaching gradually, Concubine Qing's face became more and more joyful.
At this time, there was a wave of power behind him.
Among those ghost worms, two people suddenly appeared.
When those two people appeared, everyone was shocked.
At this time, any living person would think about escaping from Xiadu, as far as possible, how could there be two fools breaking into Xiagong.
But when they took a closer look, they recognized that the two were none other than Ye Fangshi and the Queen Mother who had entered the Summer Palace earlier to look for the Underground Palace.
What's weird is that the two of them were fine when they went in, but when they came out, their bodies were covered in messy dark patterns.
"You guys didn't die?"
Concubine Qing raised her eyebrows, but she never expected that the two of them would be able to retreat unscathed amidst the swarm of ghost worms.
But judging from the appearance of the two, they should also return empty-handed.
It's really ridiculous to want to open the underground palace with the fake ghost pattern all over her body.
However, they escaped the summer palace, and they couldn't escape the swarm of ghost insects in front of them.
The corner of Concubine Qing's lips curled up, looking at Ye Lingyue and the Queen Mother.
Ye Lingyue and the queen mother used the teleportation talisman to come out. They didn't expect that the place where they landed happened to be the place where the ghost insects were densely populated. The places where they settled were all kinds of ghost insects.
Those ghost worms all became agitated when they heard the breath of a living person.
