After about an hour, we faintly heard the voice of a woman singing in front of us, and the voice became more and more sad and empty.

In an uninhabited cave, hearing the inexplicable singing of a woman, we would only think that this place was haunted, but having come here, we both have complete preparations in our hearts, and fear can only make us more shrugger, and we can only be bold to face everything that is coming.

"Second brother, have you noticed that this river is all the way down?" asked Liu Mang, since he came here, his temperament has automatically converged.

It was the first time that both of us had been so vigilant, and even in the ancestral beast altar, we didn't feel so nervous.

"That's right, not only this river goes all the way down, even the passage we just walked through is also downhill, this boat was just rowed up against the current, it can no longer be explained from a scientific point of view, we have encountered too many things that subvert imagination along the way, even if this is the passage to the Yellow Springs Hell, there is nothing strange about it. ”

I said, speaking very hard, a little bit of cheering for myself.

At this moment, the passage of the deep dark river suddenly widened, and vivid murals appeared on the surrounding stone walls.

The thin imps endure the torture of purgatory, the mountain of knives, the sea of fire, and the oil pot correspond to the torture of the eighteen layers of hell in the legend.

After more than an hour, we looked ahead at the same time, and finally arrived at the other side, in front of which was a copper and iron gate more than three zhang high, and from a distance it looked like a devil's shape, on the shore made of white boulders, the wooden boat under the feet accurately drifted there, firmly embedded in it.

On the shore stands a stone statue depicting a charming woman in white with a bowl in her hand, and a smile on her beautiful face comes to life.

"This shouldn't be hell, otherwise it would be Meng Po standing on this shore, not a beautiful woman. Liu Mang said jokingly, wanting to relieve the pressure in our hearts in this way.

Without saying a word, we jumped ashore and walked into the hole in front of us.

This cave was very large, unusually cold, and the walls around it were still covered with white frost, and the little golden monkey stood on Liu Mang's shoulder and shivered a little, and got into his arms.

We can only surround our bodies with our innate true qi to resist the harsh cold.

The hole is more than ten battles high, there are thick iron cables hanging on it, I don't know what is connected, the mountain walls on both sides grow dense vine plants, there are white and green, can grow in this sub-zero temperature environment, it can be seen that these plants are extraordinary, and the vitality is extremely tenacious.

Walking more than fifty meters forward, I saw a deep cave in front of me, all the way to the bottom, there was a fiery red light from it, and when I took a few steps closer, I only felt the hot wind blowing out of it, hitting the skin on the face as if it was about to melt, and the fiery red light turned out to be the boiling magma underground.

We looked around, except for the magma passage in front of us, there was no other exit, Liu Mang and I cautiously walked more than ten meters into the passage, the boiling temperature made us dare not move forward.

Even if we can withstand the harsh heat, there is a boundless amount of magma ahead, not to mention people, and even if metal falls into it, it will definitely melt.

"Second brother, look ahead!"

This sea of magma and fire is about fifty meters long, and further ahead is a strange passage.

On the passage, there are many stone sculptures of people dressed in various clothes, some wearing ancient armor, some wearing the robes of ancient scholars, and some of the costumes of modern people, but very few.

The strangest thing is that I also saw several monsters in it, a giant snake that is more than six meters long, and a lascivious sloth that is more than three meters long.

They come in a variety of shapes, and if you look closely, you will see that their expressions are all hideous and painful.

"Who would carve so many stone statues here?" asked Liu Mang, puzzled.

"Maybe the stone statues weren't carved, but living people walked up to them, petrified them, and became permanent sculptures!" I said in a quiet voice.

It's so weird here, it subverts Liu Mang's and me's perception of the world.

All the way down, what exactly exists in front of the unknown, why does the Dark Temple spend several years exploring here, and what is the hidden meaning of the Sealed Gate Mountain?

Seal the door, seal the door, what kind of door is sealed here?

All the questions lingered in my mind, and then Liu Mang grabbed a few more stones and threw them into the magma in front of me, causing hot and dry sprays, and the stones were red and brightened in them, and finally melted.

We weren't in the mood to study how the sculptures flew through the sea of magma and fire, and even if they could get through the lava, there was a danger of being petrified.

Walking here, Liu Mang and I both knew that the road ahead was beyond our ability, and then, we turned around and walked out, trying to find a way out of this place of right and wrong.

But after searching in the cave for most of the day, it was sealed, and there was no passage, and we wanted to go back the way we came, but the calm silver river did not feel the flow, so I tore a few vines from the wall, tied them together, and wanted to use them as oars, as soon as they touched the water, these hard plants began to rot and melt, but the boat did not move a bit.

"It seems that this ship can only move once a year, and we want to return along the road, unless we can make it to the Midyear Festival next year!" I said in a deep voice.

"Curiosity kills cats, I finally understand this truth!" Liu Mang also sighed helplessly.

At this time, the little golden monkey seemed to be hungry, and kept chattering, and ran to the wall of the cave, and picked some wild fruits that looked red and like hawthorns.

"Don't eat it, poison you!" Liu Mang hurriedly ran over to stop the little golden monkey.

But this little guy moved too fast, and stuffed the wild fruit into his mouth, Liu Mang's eyes widened, and he was really afraid that it would be poisoned to death, and after a long time, it was still alive and kicking, and it looked even more jubilant.

I am a physique that is not invaded by all poisons, and I am not afraid that this thing is poisonous, I flew and jumped to a height of two meters, and I also picked two fruits, which were sweet and sour when I ate them, and there was a very comfortable feeling of warmth in my abdomen, although the fruits were not big, but they were very full.

"It's not poisonous, there are a lot of wild fruits here, enough for us to last for more than a month, we have to hurry up and think of a way to get out!" I said.

There are more than two months, which is the day when the martial arts young heroes will begin, our trip this time was originally to prepare for the young heroes, if we are trapped here and can't get out, it will become a big joke.

Liu Mang opened the backpack he was carrying, and there were still some dry food items in it, which was only enough for us to support less than a week.

Then, I hit the wall with my fist and chisel it with the Xuanyuan sword, the stone wall is very thick, although it can also impress, but I don't know how many meters are underground, we want to dig it out by manpower, which is equivalent to daydreaming.

After a whole day, we tried all kinds of methods, and in the end, they all failed.

We were a little disheartened and sat down on the floor helplessly.

"It seems that those stone statues are people who have been here in the past thousands of years, modern people, and ancients, and they found that the ships here can only travel once a year, and in order not to starve to death, they can only take risks to enter the sea of magma and fire, and one of them has passed the first level, but fell on the way to the second level!" Liu Mang said.

I nodded and added: " There is also another possibility, those stone carvings are only a part of the people who have been here, there are also stronger ones, maybe the passage has been completely passed, after all, five thousand years in China, there are countless capable people, Lao Tzu in ancient times, Zuo Ci in the Three Kingdoms period, Yuan Tiangang in the Tang Dynasty, Liu Bowen in the Ming Dynasty, and many modern capable people, they have a good reputation in society, but in the end they disappeared mysteriously, I used to think they were in seclusion, but when I came here, I have a hunch, maybe these people have discovered some secrets of this world, to explore the existence that we can not imagine。 ”

Anyone who has studied history will know that from ancient times to the present, many famous figures, as if short-lived, in the end, came to an end, after coming here, I have a bold guess about their whereabouts.
