Chapter 238, Ancient Temple

The headless idol stands in a temple where incense is flourishing, and inside the temple, that is, around the idol is a circle of people kneeling.

And outside the temple, there was another circle of kneeling people.

Hundreds of devotees knelt near the temple and worshipped the headless deity.

Although this 'God Worship Picture' looks ordinary, it gives me a very strange feeling.

After all, I haven't seen a god like a headless.

Since the idol is headless, what are these believers prostrating?

In other words, are these believers worshipping gods or ghosts?

The strange feeling in my heart became even stronger.

Weird is weird, but what needs to be done still has to be done, and the way to go still has to be taken.

After all, in this huge steel labyrinth, nothing is normal.

"Not surprisingly, the door in front of me should be the entrance to the third floor. ”

I reached out and scratched over the bronze door: "What do you think about the handwriting on the bronze door?"

According to the above verse, if you want to open this door, it should be related to the two lanterns above. ”

Tang Yuying stretched out her finger and pointed to the bronze door, staring at the white lantern hanging on it.

I nodded, "That's right, this should be the fish lamp in the poem." If this is a fish lamp, then to some extent, this bronze door can be called the door of the underworld. ”

"The upper poor blue falls down the yellow spring, and there is no ...... in the two places"

Liu Yun frowned: "The meaning of the last two sentences should be to let us look for something, right?"

"I think so too. Tang Yuying snorted: "Judging from the poem's combination with the pattern, I think it should be related to the headless god statue worshiped by everyone in the pattern." ”

"Let's talk about it, it's better to try it first. ”

Song Qian jumped lightly, jumped directly to the top of the bronze door, and then reached out to take down the two white lanterns.

The white lantern was carried by Song Qian on the left and right, and the words life and death on it were clearly visible.

Although the lantern is a little tattered, the candles inside are still there.

I took out my lighter, lit the lantern with the dead word written on it, and then went to light the lantern with the dead word written on it.

However, it is at this point that the problem arises.

The lantern of the dead word burns at one point, but the lantern of the word of life cannot be lit at all.

As soon as the flame on my lighter comes close to the candle, it suddenly goes out.

At first, I thought it was windy, so I tried to block it with my hands, adjust my position or something, but after trying several times to no avail, I realized that something was wrong.

It's not a problem with the wind at all, it's a problem with the lantern itself.

"Let me try. ”

Seeing that the situation was wrong, Song Qian took the initiative to ask.

I didn't refuse, and handed her the lighter.

However, the situation did not improve, when Song Qian lit the lighter and went to light the candle accurately.

As soon as the wick of the candle was touched, the lighter suddenly went out.

It's like being suddenly put in the water.

Song Qian tried more than a dozen times, and even pulled out the candle to light it, but there was still no response.

Whether it is a lighter or other incendiary items, you can't get close to the candle, as long as you get close, it will basically go out when you touch it.

The whole situation is very strange.

If it was just force, Song Qian would naturally not be so aggrieved, and it would be a big deal to do it.

But the problem, this is not a problem that can be solved by force, you can't light a candle, you can't eat it.

As a result, Song Qian, who had an explosive force value in our team, suffered a setback for the first time.

"Let me come!"

Wang Gang was in a hurry, and as soon as he grabbed the lantern and began to light it with a lighter, there was still no response.

"Lighting a lantern that doesn't burn a word doesn't mean that all of us are dead, right?"

Luo Tian opened his mouth weakly.

"Can you say something auspicious?" Wang Gang rolled his eyes: "With the strength of our current team, not to mention anything else, it is more than enough for self-preservation! So don't think too much, this candle is just a little weird." ”

Wang Gang's comfort did not make Luo Tian's expression much better.

I don't know if Luo Tian is a crow's mouth or what's going on, anyway, as long as she opens her mouth recently, she basically says anything.

"Everybody try it. ”

I handed the lighter to Liu Meng.

Liu Meng shook his head after trying a few times, and handed the lighter to Luo Tian.

Luo Tian tried to click a few times, but it was still useless, and finally handed the lighter to Tang Yuying.

Originally, everyone didn't think that there would be any accidents, even Tang Yuying herself, they just planned to give it a try.

After all, so many people have tried, but they can't light it, and it's obviously a candle problem.

However, the real situation was beyond everyone's expectations.

When Tang Yuying lit the lighter to touch the candle, the candle, which had no reaction, burned with a "bang".

I could see very clearly that the flame of the lighter in Tang Yuying's hand did not touch the wick of the candle at all.

When it was still three or four centimeters away from the wick, the wick actually ignited on its own.

This strange situation made my eyelids jump.

What's the situation?

Why can't we light it, but Tang Yuying can light it?

I looked at Tang Yuying, and Tang Yuying also looked at me in surprise.

Even she didn't expect this to happen.

"What's going on? candle...... Why did it burn?"

Wang Gang looked at the two of us with a confused expression.

"I don't know, I just touched it lightly with a lighter, and then ...... It'll light up!"

Tang Yuying stretched out her hand and pointed to the lantern, also puzzled.

Just when everyone was a little baffled, the bronze door at this moment suddenly moved.

The word lantern is lit, and the dead word lantern is lit.

When the two white lanterns were lit at the same time, the heavy bronze gate began to slowly open to the sides with a "buzzing" sound of metal rubbing.

On the side of the door, I could barely see, but on the other side of the door, it was pitch black, and I couldn't see anything.

Not long ago, when we went up to the second floor, it was basically the same as withdrawing.

Everyone subconsciously turned on the flashlight, wanting to use the light to see the situation inside the door.

However, the strange thing is that after the bright light shines in, it is like a mud cow entering the sea, and there is no reaction at all.

On the contrary, the two white lanterns in the hands of Tang Yuying and I suddenly shone brightly, illuminating two paths that could lead straight to us in the darkness.

The flashlight didn't work, so it didn't work, and the light of the two lanterns alone was enough to see, so it didn't matter to us.

However, this situation is quite in line with the description of the poem.

The fish lamp opens the underworld, and the night light shines on the netherworld.

If the bronze door is the door of the underworld, then the inside of the door is the netherworld.

The first two games have echoed the reality, so how should the last two sentences come out?

"Go in and see ......"

I glanced at Tang Yuying, and then took the lead in going inside.

The lantern was lit by Tang Yuying, and others can't touch it at will, and when they touch it, they will have a reaction to extinguish.

Therefore, this lantern can only be carried by her, and with her current ability, it is more risky to walk in front.

But fortunately, Song Qian followed behind her, and I wasn't very worried.

The light from the lantern is strange, it is two white forest roads.

Somewhat similar to the light of a flashlight.

In other words, except for the front front, the peripheral afterglow is almost negligible.

With my eyesight, I can see up to twenty meters by the light of a flashlight.

Twenty meters away, it becomes extremely blurry.

As for Tang Yuying and the others, their eyes could only see where the light could extend.

At first, I didn't know what was going on inside the door.

After I walked in, I realized that on the other side of the door, there was actually a mountain!

We stepped on a mountain road, a steep slope, and the bronze gate opened just halfway up the mountain.

The woods below the mountain are sparsely pine, and the higher you go, the denser it becomes.

"This place...... How can there be mountains?"

Wang Gang looked left and right, a little incredulous.

No one responded to his words, and he didn't know how.

In this steel labyrinth, there is no non-existence, only the unexpected.

When we came out, we were walking up the mountain, and although I was a little surprised by the changes in the surrounding environment, I didn't change my direction.

Holding hands with Tang Yuying, they climbed up step by step, followed by Wang Gang and a group of people.

Because there was no movement around, our group walked very slowly.

Although mountains are mountains, they are very different from the mountains in our real world.

Generally speaking, in the deep mountains and old forests, wolves, tigers and leopards may exist, and there are always snakes, rats, birds and insects.

However, since we came in, the whole mountain has been eerily quiet, and there has not been a single movement.

Not to mention the roar of the tiger wolf, there is not even a trace of wind and grass.

Seek, eerie, eerie.

We were always vigilant and walked up the hill step by step.

As the number of trees increases, the light of the lanterns is gradually obstructed.

Our line of sight is also compressed little by little.

After walking for a long time, just when everyone was a little tired, a huge black shadow suddenly appeared in the darkness in the distance!

It was a building standing on the top of a mountain, so large and majestic that I could feel a strong sense of oppression even from a distance.

The further up you go, the more noticeable the huge structure at the top of the hill becomes.

The first thing I saw was just the tip of the iceberg, and the higher I went, the stronger the shock.

It wasn't until I was really close to the top of the mountain that I reacted.

Isn't the huge building on the top of the hill the ancient temple on the bronze door pattern?
